OBJECTIVE:To investigate the factors influencing the drug release of atenolol nasal gel for references of optimization of its formulation.METHODS:The effects of carbopol 941(0.8%,1.0% and 1.2%)which used as the gel stroma,the amount of surface acting agent Tween-80(0,6% and 8%),and absorption enhancer(DM-?-CD vs.?-CD)on the in vitro release of atenolol nasal gel were investigated.RESULTS:All the above-mentioned 3 factors had marked effects on the in vitro release of atenolol nasal gel.The in vitro release of atenolol nasal gel was markedly enhanced by 0.8% carbopol 941,6% Tween-80 and 10% DM-?-CD absorption enhancer.CONCLUSION:The results in the study serve as references for the optimization of the formulation of atenolol nasal gel.

Objective:To construct expression vector of human glucocorticoid receptor mutant.Methods:cDNA sequence of human glucocorticoid receptor mutant having no LBD was amplificated through RT-nested PCR,PCR product was directionally cloned to pEGFP-N2 plasmid vector,and recombinant plasmids were screened through sequencing.Expressions of recombinant plasmids in human macrophage cell line U937 were observed through fluorescence microscope.Transcriptional activation activity of variant was evaluated through methods of relative activity of luciferase.Results:The 1 601 bp length cDNA was obtained,and result of sequencing confirmed the cloned cDNA sequence is completely coincidence with that of glucocorticoid receptor in Genebank.Expression products of recombinant plasmid mainly located in nucleus.Transcriptional activation activity incresed after recombinant plasmid transfected.Conclusion:Expression vector of glucocorticoid receptor mutant was constructed successfully,which has transcriptional activation activity independent of glucocorticoid.

OBJECTIVE To determine the germicidal efficacy and corrosiveness of San Xiao pyrogen inactivator.METHODS Its germicidal efficacy was measured with carrier test.RESULTS The killing rate of Bacillus subtilis var.niger spores exposed to its solution containing available chlorine 750mg/L for 30 min attained 100%.Its solution containing available chlorine 500 mg/L with a 15 min contact time could destroy HBsAg antigenicity in suspension.Its germicidal efficacy decreased in presence of organic substance.Its water solution containing available chlorine 1000mg/L was not corrosive to stainless steel,moderately corrosive to carbon steel and severely corrosive to copper and aluminum.CONCLUSIONS San Xiao pyrogen inactivator is a kind of original disinfectant which has better germicidal efficacy and uses safely.

Objective To study the changes of interferon ( IFN )- γ ,interleukin(IL)-4 and IL-6 in endometriosis. Method The levels of peripheral blood IFN-γ ,IL-4 and IL-6 in 25 patients with endometriosis (EM group) and 20 normal adults (control group) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results The level of peripheral blood IFN- γ in EM group [(109.64±26.79 ) ng/L] was lower than that in control group [(155.17±30.36) ng/L] (P ＜ 0.05 ), IL-4[(33.52 ± 8.69)ng/L]and IL-6 [(44.12 ± 3.57) ng/L] were higher than those in control group [(22.52 ± 6.54), ( 15.12 ±2.63 )ng/L](P＜0.05 ).The ratio of IFN-γ/II-4(3.27±1.45 ) and IFN- γ/IL-6 ( 1.15 ± 0.56 ) in EM group were significantly lower than those in control group (6.89 ±1.68,2.54 ±1.03)(P ＜0.01 or ＜0.05).Conclusions Th1 cells shift toward Th2 cells in patients with endometriosis. Th1/Th2 ratio may be correlated with the pathogenesis of endometriosis.

Objective To carry out investigation and analysis in present situation of vocational ethnics of clinical nursing teachers in order to supply reference for quality improvement of nursing staff. Methods Inter-views were carried out in 40 clinical nursing teachers in 3 teaching hospitals, Meanwhile, 700 nursing stu-dents who were in practice and probation were investigated by questionnaires about vocational ethnics of clinical nursing teachers. Results 91.5% students thought that clinical nursing teachers were uncorrupt-ed and self- disciplined, 93.0% of them considered that they could hold their ground. Most students gave positive evaluation about the teaching attitude, teaching ability and teaching practice. Conclusions We should further perfect the vocational ethnics criterion, improve cultivation system, strengthen the moral edu-cation in order to promote the vocational ethnics construction.

Objective To probe into the influencing factors and countermeasurses for clinical nursing teaching in pediatric department. Methods From June 2009 to June 2010, 86 nursing interns in pediatric department were selected, and a retrospective analysis was carried out. Results In the 86 interns in nursing practice, influencing factors of clinical nursing teaching included: 65 interns thought of department factors, accounting for 75.58%; 61 interns thought of nursing students factors, accounting for 70.93%; 59 interns thought of teacher factors, accounting for 68.60%; 57 interns thought of social factors, accounting for 66.28%. Conclusions Many factors influence pediatric clinical nursing teaching, we should strictly implement the rules and regulations and to actively take measures to comprehensively improve the quality of clinical practice for nursing students.

Objective To explore the effect of propofol-remifentanil total intravenous anesthesia in cosmetic surgery and the controllability of anesthesia.Methods According to the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA),levels Ⅰ-Ⅱ hospitalized patients for elective cosmetic surgery (100 cases) were randomly divided into two groups,namely propofol-remifentanil total intravenous anesthesia group (Group T) and combined intravenous inhalational anesthesia group (Group C),50 cases each.Observatory items of patients included intraoperative cardiovascular drug use,body movement,waking-up time,extubation time,leaving time from operation theatre,postoperative adverse reaction,hypoxemia (SpO2＜95％) and anesthesia satisfaction.Results In Group C,waking-up time,extubation time and leaving time from operation theatre were (12.2 ± 3.6),(13.8± 4.6) and (4.6 ±5.8) min,respectively,which were longer than those (6.7±2.6),(7.8±3.3) and (3.3±3.8) min in Group T (P＜0.05).In Group T,intraoperative ephedrine usage (6/50,12.0％) and body moving rates (4/50,8.0％) were higher than those (1/50,2.0％) and (1/50,2.0％) in the Group C (P＜0.05).The Group T had lower incidence of postoperative adverse reactions,including lethargy (2/50,4.0％),irritability (1/50,2.0％),nausea and vomiting (8/50,16.0％),which were lower than those (8/50,16.0％),(7/50,14.0％) and (17/50,34.0％) in the Group C (P＜0.05).The incidence of postoperative chill was similar between the two groups with no statistical significance (P＞0.05).Satisfactory rate with anesthesia was 84.0％ (42/50) in Group T that was higher than 52.0％ (26/50) in Group C (P＜0.05).Conclusions Propofol-remifentanil intravenous anesthesia has definite effects with faster postoperative recovery,less adverse reaction and complications,safety and operablity.

Objective To explore the role of the change of the CD11b expression in hyperleukocytosis and acute promyelocytic leukemia(APL) differentiation syndrome, we observed the effects of all-trans retinoie acid(ATRA) and trioxide arsenic(ATO) alone or the combination together with daunorubicin (DNR) on CD11b expression of human APL cell line NB4 cells. Methods By using the mono-antibody of CD11b FITC-conjugated, we monitored the level of CD11b expression of NB4 cells by flow cytometry. Results With the length of the 1 μmol/L ATRA exposure,the CD11b expression was increased. Exposed to ATRA for 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and 168 h;the CD11b expression of NB4 cell was (33.34±3.15)%, (55.59±5.13)%, (86.08±5.12)% and (90.69±2.69)%, respectively which were higher than control group and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). With the length of the 1 μmol/L ATO exposure, the CD11b expression showed no significant difference with control group(P>0.05), but was significantly lower than that in ATRA exposure(P<0.01). Exposed to 1 μmol/L ATRA combined with 1 μmol/L ATO for 72 h and 168 h, the CD11b expression were (18.81±1.40)% and (25.61±4.54)%, which were significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05, P<0.01), but significantly lower than ATRA exposure (P<0.01). With the exposure to 1 μmol/L ATRA combined with 1 μmol/L ATO and 1 μmol/L DNR, the CD11b expression was also significantly lower than ATRA exposure (P<0.01) and showed no difference with control group (P>0.05). Conclusion By avoiding the increase of CD11b expression of promyelocytic leukemia cells, ATRA combined with ATO or two drugs together with DNR could play a role in eliminating incidence of hyperleukocytosis and retinoic acid syndrome.
