In Order to screen antidiarrhea drugs, the standard operation of mice diarrhea model replicated with leave of Cassia angustifolia vahl was introduced. In experiments, diarrhea index expressed with loose stool ineidence rate multiplied by loose stool grade was used as main index. It thoroughly mirrors indi. vidual diarrhea degree and possesses comparability. The result indicates that diarrhea index in mice presented normal distribution. The index between animal model groups kad no difference as well as no differcnce was found in model mice of same group for six consecutive days, with good reproduclbility. It is recommended that the model can be used for the screening of antidiarrhea drugs.

With the establishment of HPLC and LC-MS methods to determine the related substances and the content of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in ipratropium bromide aerosol products, several packing material-related impurities were identified, including antioxygen BHT and antioxygen 2246. Results showed that these leachable additives from the packing materials may present at a relative high level in the drug solution, and the low content of API in the drug products is usually due to the adsorption of the packing material as well as the leaking of contents. The current available assay methods for the control of ipratropium bromide aerosol products are often lack of specificity and unable to assure the drug quality effectively. To meet the increasing attention on the regulations of drug packing materials, our research would be a pilot study, indicating that the inappropriate packing materials could cause the migration and adsorption of the active ingredients, and the importance to have compatibility studies between packing materials and drugs.

In order to evaluate the value of magnetic resonance cholangiography (MRC) and dynamic examination of duodenal fluid in the differential diagnosis between extrahepatic biliary atresia (EHBA) and infantile hepatitis syndrome (IHS), 52 patients with infantile cholestatic jaundice were examined by MRC and duodenal fluid examination. Original interpretations were compared with clinical outcome. Calculated sensitivity of duodenal fluid examination in diagnosis of EHBA was 100%, and specificity was 91.1%. Sensitivity of MRC in the diagnosis of EHBA was 94.4% and specificity 88.24%. The sensitivity of MRC and examination of duodenal fluid combined in diagnosis of EHBA was 94.4% and specificity 97.06%. We are led to conclude that MRC and dynamic examination of duodenal fluid are useful in the differential diagnosis between IHS and EHBA and the combined use of the two techniques yield better results.

Objective To observe the outcome of an absorbable bioactive bone-inducing material for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH).Methods Thirty rabbits were randomly,evenly divided into three groups,experience group with bioactive bone-inducing material planted into bone collapse,control group 1 with oral ShengMaiJiaoNang and control group 2 with no implantation in the bone necrosis.Results In experiment group,bone necrosis was halted and the collapse was repaired.Meanwhile,cancellous bone and cortical bone were regenerated,necrotic bone was basically healed,and bioactive bone-inducing material was gradually degraded and absorbed.In control group 1,part of the bone marrow vascular was repaired and regenerated,and a little new bone grew,which delayed the process of necrosis.In control group 2,there was no bone tissue regeneration in the bone collapse and further deterioration was observed.Conclusions The bioactive bone-inducing material can not only replace autologous cancellous bone,but also halt the progress of osteonecrosis,which may become an alternative treatment for the stage Ⅱ and early stage of ONFH.

AIM: To explore the effect of oxides of low density lipoprotein (OX - LDL)on apoptosis in vas- cular endothelial cells(EC) and its possible mechanisms. METHODS: Culted vascular ECS were incubated with OX - LDL(0.1?g/L or 0. 3?g/L) for 4 hours, flow cytometer with PI staining methed was used to determine the rate of cellular apoptosis, gel - electrophoresis was performed to observe foe DNA ladder of apoptosis, cellular RNA was isolated and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT - PCR)was performed to determine Fas antigen ex- pression. RESULTS:OX - LDL treatment induced apoptosis in EC dose - dependently. No DNA ladder was ob- served in control EC. But it presented in EC beated with low dose of OX - LDL, and was even more when beted with higher dose of OX - LDL. RT - PCR revealed Fas antigen baldly had any expression in basic condition, OX - LDL treatment induced Fas antigen in EC in a dose dependent manner. CONCLUSION: OX - LDL can induce apoptosis in EC, upregulaton of Fas antigen expression maybe one of the possible mechanisms.

Objective To investigate hepatic histological features and its influencing factors of HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B patients. Methods 134 HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients who underwent percutaneous liver biopsy were recruited in this study. The liver biopsy sections were examined after routine haematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, and silver staining for assessment of fibrosis. The activity of liver disease was assessed by using a modified Knodell numeric histology activity index (HAI). ALT level, HBV DNA load, HBV serological markers, HBV genotype were assessed with appropriate methods. t test or analysis of variance was used to compare means. Non-parametric was done by Kruskal-Wallis test. The correlation between liver pathological change and clinical factors was analyzed by multivariate linear regression. Results Of 134 HBeAg negative CHB patients, percentages of mild (HAI 4 ~ 8), moderate (HAI 9 ~ 12), and severe hepatitis (HAI 13 ~ 18) were 26.9%, 26.1%, and 47.0%, respectively. As for hepatic fibrosis, 18.7% and 81.3% of the patients had fibrosis score < 3 and ≥3, respectively. Multivariate regression analysis showed that ALT level and hepatic fibrosis were correlated to hepatic inflammation (t = 6.687,P < 0.01; t = 3.478, P < 0.01) while age and hepatic inflammation activity were influencing factors of hepatic fibrosis (t = 3.587, P < 0.01; t =7.136, P < 0.01). However, correlation is not significant between hepatic histological change and other factors, including gender, HBVDNA, HBV genotype and HBeAb status. Conclusions In this study, hepatic histological change tend to become worse in majority of HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B , especially in older patients and those with high ALT level.

Objective: To establish the model of palatine mucoperiosteal expansion and observe a new possible treatment approach to soft tissue defect of cleft palate. Methods: Expanders of 10ml were implanted beneath the palatine mucoperiosteum in 4 dogs and injected 1.0ml 0.9% NaCl at the same time. 20 days after the placement of the expander, the expander was expanded by 1.0-1.5ml every 7 days again. The dogs were killed after the expanders reached their capacity. All the specimens were performed histomorphometric and histological examinations. Results: Histological results showed the increase in the layer of cell and the number of collagen fibra and blood vessel. All the specimens of expanded tissue showed the formation of extra palatine mucoperiosteal tissue. Conclusion: Expansion technique is able to form extra palatine mucoperiosteal tissue,which could be a new restoration approach to soft tissue defect of cleft palate and others.
