Objective To establish a regenerative system in vitro and determine the endogenous hormones of Zanthoxylum dissitum. Methods Lamina of Z. dissitum was used as the explant. Callus adventitious bud differentiation was carried out by culturing on MS with different hormones. At the same time,in the course of callus induction,four endogenous hormone of GA3,IAA,ABA,and ZR were determined by ELISA. Results The optimum medium for adventitious bud regeneration of Z. dissitum was MS+6-BA 0.5 mg/L+NAA 0.1 mg/L,and the highest induction rate could reach to 61%. During the process of the differentiation of explants callus,the contents of ZR and IAA were correspondingly higher than other endogenous hormones,the content of ABA was always kept in low level during this process,the content of GA3 was kept in the trend of upgrading during the earlier differentiation period. Conclusion It could be considered that ZR and IAA should be the critical factors in the bud induction. According to the results,a proper adding of GA3in the culture medium could improve the differentiation rate of the adventitious bud. On the other side,ABA might be the negative regulation factor.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for simultaneous determination of berberine hydrochloride and baicalin in Jianpi zhixiening granules. METHODS:HPLC switching walvelength method was adopted. The determination was performed on Hypersil BDS C18 column with mobile phase consisted of methanol-0.45% phosphoric acid solution-triethylamine(50:49:1,V/V/V) at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 265 nm(berberine hydrochloride)and 280 nm(baicalin). The column temperature was set at 30 ℃,and sample size was 10 μL. RESULTS:The linear range of berberine hydrochloride and baicalin were 60.3-312.8 ng(r=0.9997)and 81.5-368.9 ng(r=0.9999). The limits of quantitation were 0.6668,0.7740 ng,andthe limits of detection were 0.2226,0.2580 ng,respectively. RSDs of intermediate precision,stability and repeatability tests were all lower than 1.0%. The recoveries were 96.48%-99.30%(RSD=1.06%,n=6) and 95.20%-99.39%(RSD=1.66%,n=6), respectively. RSDs of durability test were all lower than 2.0%. CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple, precise, stable, reproducible,accurate and durable. It can be used for simultaneous determination of berberine hydrochloride and baicalin in Jianpi zhixiening granules.

Objective:
To understand the distribution of tobacco retailer within 100 meters outside middle schools in Wuhan City and its impact on smoking behavior of middle school students, so as to provide basis and feasible suggestions for the development of tobacco control policy for adolescents.
Methods:
From February to May 2023, a multi stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 20 middle schools from 4 districts in Wuhan City. To investigate the distribution of tobacco retailer within 100 metres outside the school and the sale of tobacco to minors. A total of 4 882 students were surveyed using the core questions of the 2021 Chinese Adolescent Tobacco Prevalence Questionnaire. Fisher exact probability test, Chi square test and Chi square trend test were used for statistical analysis.
Results:
Nearly 70.00% of middle schools had tobacco retailer within 100 metres, with an average of (1.10±0.97) per middle school. The awareness rate (100.00%) and labeling rate (87.50%) of licensed tobacco retailer were higher than those of non licensed tobacco retailer (33.33%, 16.67%) ( P <0.05). The rates of tried smoking, current smoking and buying cigarettes within 30 days were 7.13%, 1.99% and 2.54%, respectively. The rates of students who tried smoking ( 8.58 %), current smoking (2.29%) and buying cigarettes within 30 days (2.85%) in schools with tobacco retailer within 100 metres were higher than those in schools without tobacco retailer (3.79%, 1.28%, 1.83%)( χ 2=35.80, 5.37, 4.37 , P <0.05). And as the grade increased, the rates of tried smoking, current smoking and buying cigarettes among middle school students all showed an upward trend ( χ 2 trend =66.20, 36.10, 16.17, P <0.05).
Conclusions
Middle school students in Wuhan City have high tobacco availability. The findings suggest that school ban should be extended from 50 meters to 100 meters, and the regulatory authorities must strictly prohibit selling tobacco products to minors at tobacco retailer.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of nosocomial infection among the patients in neuro-surgical ICU,and to construct the risk prediction model to provide reference for the prediction of nosocomial infection in neurosurgical ICU patients.Methods The clinical data of 280 patients admitted and treated in the neurosurgery ICU of this hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The pa-tients were divided into the infection group and non-infection group based on whether or not nosocomial infec-tion occurring,140 cases in each group.A total of 196 patients were extracted as the training set by a ratio of 7︰3 for constructing the model,while the remaining 84 patients served as the validation set for conducting the internal verification.The logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of nosocomial infection in the neurosurgery ICU patients,and a predictive model was established.The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive effect of the model.Results The multivariate logistic re-gression analysis indicated that old age,long surgery time,catheter use and glucocorticoids use were screened as the main risk factors of nosocomial infection occurrence in neurosurgery ICU patients.The nomogram mod-el was constructed based on the results of multivariate analysis,the area under the curve of training set and validation set were 0.796 and 0.875,respectively.The correcting model reflected good consistency between actual diagnosis and predictive diagnosis.Conclusion The model constructed in this study has the high predic-tive value for the nosocomial infection occurrence risk in the patients of the neurosurgery ICU.
