OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy and safety of triptorelin acetate in the treatment of endometriosis after lap-aroscopy. METHODS:196 cases of endometriosis were randomly divided into experimental group and control group with 98 cases in each group according to admission sequence. Both groups received laparoscopic surgery. After surgery,experimental group was given triptorelin acetate by intramuscular injection,3.75 mg/time,every 4 weeks;control group was given gestrinone orally,2.5 mg/time,twice a week,for 5 months. The ovulation,menstrual recovery and the occurrence of ADR were observed in 2 groups. The endometriosis relapse of 2 groups were followed up for 1 year and observed. RESULTS:After treatment,the ovulation recov-ery time and menstrual recovery time of experimental group were all shorter than those of control group,with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05). The incidence of ADR in experimental group(17.34%)was significantly lower than in control group(35.71%), with statistical significance(P<0.05). During follow-up period,the relapse rate of experimental group(7.14%)was significantly lower than that of control group(18.37%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:After laparoscopic surgery, triptorelin acetate can significantly improve therapeutic efficacy of endometriosis,reduce the occurrence of ADR.

Objective To investigate factors that correlated to compliance of treatment in infertile patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) to provide basis for clinical treatment, specialist consultation and health education. Methods Compliance was assessed by a questionnaire designed by reference to Morisky-Green test and therapeutic principles for PCOS. Interviews were performed in 128 infertile patients with PCOS in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, Hubei in China during March 2009 to September 2010. Data were analyzed with logistic regression. Results Logistic regression analysis revealed that a total of 41 (34.2% ) of 120 participants investigated showed good compliance. Factors that might significantly (P < 0.05 ) correlate compliance of treatment included body mass index (BMI) of the patients ( OR = 2.426, 95% CI = 1.428 - 4.121 ), length of their marriage ( OR = 0.398, 95% CI =0.225 - 0.704) and their concerns for adverse drug reactions ( OR= 0.216, 95% CI = 0.067 - 0.694).Conclusions Patients with obesity, shorter length of marriage and concerns for adverse drug reactions show lower compliance. Publicity and intervention to those patients should be strengthened in clinics to improve their treatment compliance in patients with PCOS.

Objective To develop Prospective Memory Test and explore its reliability and validity in normal and schizophrenic population. Methods According to the structure of prospective memory, Prospective Memory Test was developed based on the previous researches. 40 inpatients with schizophrenia and 30 healthy subjects were assessed with Prospective Memory Test and Wechsler Memory Scale-Fourth Edition, Chinese (WMS-Ⅳ). Results Factor analysis extracted 2 main factors, named time-based prospective memory (TBPM) and event-based prospective memory (EBPM), including 10 items. The average score of Prospective Memory Test was lower in the patients than in the healthy controls by 1~2 standard deviations (P<0.001). Discriminant analysis showed that the specificity, sensitivity, and diagnostic consistency were 93.3%, 72.5% and 81.4%, respectively. Prospective Memory Test scores and two subtest scores positively correlated with total score of WMS-Ⅳ (r=0.44~0.53, P<0.001). The Cronbach's α among all the items was 0.76, and was 0.68 in the TBPM and 0.59 in the EBPM. Split-half reliability of the scale was 0.65 (P<0.001). Conclusion The reliability and validity of Prospective Memory Test are acceptable for schizophrenics.

OBJECTIVETo study the absorption characteristics of alkaloids in Coptis chinensis in rat intestinal.
METHODIn situ single-pass perfused rat intestinal model was used and the concentrations of berberine and palmatine were determined by HPLC, the drug absorption rate constant (K(a)) and apparent absorption coefficient (P(app)) were tested to evaluate their absorption characteristics.
RESULTThe absorption of berberine and palmatine in different regions of rat intestinals was significantly different. From bigness to smallness, the P(app) value of berberine at 50 mg x L(-1) were ileum, duodenum, jejunum and colon, of palmatine at 50 mg x L(-1) were ileum, colon, jejunum and duodenum. The concentration of berberine and palmatine had distinctive effect on the K(a) value of berberine and palmatine were ordered from larger to little as in Wujiwan compatibility, Coptis chinensis extractive and single compound.
CONCLUSIONThe berberine and palmatine were absroped at all regions of rat intestinal. The absorption characteristics of 2 alkaloids were not passive diffusion. The other ingredients in Wujiwan compatibility and Coptis chinensis extractive could promote the absorption of alkaloids.

OBJECTIVETo study the acute and chronic toxicity of Tiangou Jiangya capsule.
METHODTiangou Jiangya capsule was intragastrically administered to mice twice a day. The appearance, behavior, mental status, respiratory changes of mice and the number of poisoned and dead mice in each group were noted daily for 14 consecutive days. The amount of weight and feed of survived mice were recorded every day. The mice were divided into four groups: the treatment groups (minimum, middle, maximum dose of Tiangou Jiangya capsule) and the control group. After continuously orally administrated for 6 months, the rats' behavior, weight gain, food consumption, indications for hematology, blood biochemistry, urine analysis, electrocardiogram, systematic autopsy and histopathology were observed. The above physiological indexes were inspected again 1 month after cease of administration.
RESULTThe oral acute toxicity study of Tiangou Jiangya capsule in mice revealed that the maximum dose is 534.86 g x kg(-1), which was 534.86 times the recommended human maximum dose in clinical practice. Compared with normal control group, no significant differences were observed in rats' behaviors, food-intake, electrocardiogram and relative examination indexes among the treatment groups. There was no difference of hematology, biochemistry test, urine and histopathology.
CONCLUSIONThe minimum dosage of Tiangou Jiangya capsule is relatively safe. It caused weight loss by administrated with the middle and maximum dose for 6 months, which should be paid attention in clinical studies.
