Objective To test the content of menthol in Chuanbei Pipa Syrup(CPS)by GC, and to evaluate its quality. Meth-ods The content of menthol in CPS was determined by capillary gas chromatography. DB-WAX capillary column (30 m ×0. 319 mm × 0. 50μm) was used with nitrogen as carrier gas. The precolumn pressure was 500 kPa and the column temperature was at 110 ℃ with split ratio of 25 : 1. The temperature was set at 250℃ for sample injection and for the detector. Results The content of menthol in CPS produced by Henan Pharmaceutical Co. , Ltd. , Zhengzhou Pharmaceutical Co. , Ltd. and Yunan Pharmaceutical Co. , Ltd. was 0. 154 mg/mL, 0. 203 mg/mL and 0. 109 mg/mL, respectively. Of them, the men-thol content in CPS produced by Zhengzhou Pharmaceutical Co. , Ltd. met the requirements of Pharmacopoeia(2005 edition), and that of the other two species was slightly lower. Conclusion The methods are convenient, reliable and accurate for the de-termination of menthol content in Chuanbei Pipa Syrup.

Objective To observe the expression and the distribution of Netrin-1 in the spastic and normal segment of colon in patients with Hirschsprungs disease (HD) and investigate the relationship between Netrin-1 and development of HD.Methods Colon specimens of 36 cases with HD were selected for this study.Normal segment of colon served as the control group,while the spastic segments of colon as the lesion group.Immunohistochemical staining was applied to detecte the expression and the distribution of Netrin-1.Results Immunohistochemical staining showed that the expression of netrin-1 was positive in the intestinal muscular layers (longitudinal muscle,circular muscles),myenteric ganglias and mucosal layers in the control group.However,the expression of Netrin-1 was also positive in muscular layers and mucosal layer in the lesion group.There was no significant difference in the expression intensity of Netrin-1 between the two groups (P ＞0.05).Conclusion The expression of Netrin-1 in both the control group and the lesion group may indicate that netrin-1 have no significant correlation with genesis of HD.

In this article a new principle of geometric design for blade's surface of an impeller is provided. This is an optimal control problem for the boundary geometric shape of flow and the control variable is the surface of the blade. We give a minimal functional depending on the geometry of the blade's surface and such that the flow's loss achieves minimum. The existence of the solution of the optimal control problem is proved and the Euler-Lagrange equations for the surface of the blade are derived. In addition, under a new curvilinear coordinate system, the flow domain between the two blades becomes a fixed hexahedron, and the surface as a mapping from a bounded domain in R2 into R3, is explicitly appearing in the objective functional. The Navier-Stokes equations, which include the mapping in their coefficients, can be computed by using operator splitting algorithm. Furthermore, derivatives of the solution of Navier-Stokes equations with respect to the mapping satisfy linearized Navier-Stokes equations which can be solved by using operator splitting algorithms too. Hence, a conjugate gradient method can be used to solve the optimal control problem.

Objective To study the selective tumoricidal effect of adenovirus (Ad)-mediated fusion gene system driven by kinase domain-containing (KDR) promoter on human stomach adenocarcinoma SCG7901 cells, and to observe its apoptosis induction effect. Methods Both the AdEasy-KDR-CDglyTK cells with KDR-expressing SCG7901 cells and non KDR-expressing HepG2 cells were reconstructed, and then they were treated with the pro-drugs 5-FC and/or GCV at different concentrations. The killing effects of the transfection on the cells were evaluated. Flow cytometry was employed to determine the cell cycle distribution, and Hooechest/PI stain and electron microscopy performed to observe the pathological changes of cells. Results The green fluorescent protein (GFP) was observed in 95% of the infected SCG7901 and HepG2 cells when the multiple of infection (MOI) of the Ads was 100. No significant difference on the growth feature was found among the transfected SCG7901, HepG2 and untransfected SCG7901 and HepG2 cells. The infected cells exhibited different sensitivities to the two pro-drugs: SCG7901 cells infected with rAd were highly sensitive to the pro-drugs, while the infected HepG2 cells were not (P

In this study, we developed a novel liposome-silica hybrid nano-carrier for tumor combination therapy via oral route, using paclitaxel and cyclosporine as a model drug pair. Optimization of the preparation of the drug-loading formulation and characterization of its physicochemical parameters and drug release profile were performed in vitro. Then in vivo pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics studies were performed. The results showed that the obtained formulation has a small particle size (mean diameter of 100.2 +/- 15.2 nm), a homogeneous distribution [the polydispersity index was (0.251 +/- 0.018)] and high encapsulation efficiency (90.15 +/- 2.47) % and (80.64 +/- 3.52) % for paclitaxel and cyclosporine respectively with a mild and easy preparation process. A sequential drug release trend of cyclosporine prior to palictaxel was observed. The liposome-silica hybrid nano-carrier showed good biocompatibility in vivo and co-delivery of cyclosporine and paclitaxel significantly enhanced the oral absorption of paclitaxel with improved anti-tumor efficacy, suggesting a promising approach for multi-drug therapy against tumor and other serious diseases via oral route.

Department of rheumatology and immunology is a compulsory training department for the standardization training of the residents. However, it has been noted that the residents often ignore the importance of rheumatology. They are usually short of communication skill with the patients and theoretical knowledge. They often have high error rate in the clinical work and training their clini-cal skills and thinking ability is very difficult in the actual work. All of these problems may decrease the training quality and make the training a mere formality. Therefore, in order to carefully implement resident standardization training, a set of specific training programs has been developed, involving in theory of knowledge, practice standardization and comprehensive quality training. With these training programs, the quality and efficiency of the residents' training has greatly improved.

BACKGROUND: It has been confirmed that some casting alloy can inhibit the activity of human gingival fibroblasts in vitro, which can be used for inducing apoptosis of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs). However, the mechanism of this effect is poorly understood.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of Ni-Cr, Co-Cr, Au and pure Ti ceramic alloys on the expression of P70S6k by HGFs in vitro.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Grouping controlled experiments with the expression of P70s6k by HGFs in each group as observation objects. Experiments were performed at the Institute of Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting, Technology Building of Liaoning Medical University from July to October 2009.MATERIALS: Ni-Cr, Co-Cr, Au and pure Ti ceramic alloys were processed by Shenzhen Mecodent Dental Laboratory Co., Ltd. The gingival from gingival neck of the first premolar (which goes to be extracted due to the need of orthodontic treatment) of teenager who was15 years old without any clinical disease was obtained, followed by the primary culture of HGFs. The fifth passage of cells in logarithmic phase were used to measure indexes.METHODS: Ni-Cr, Co-Cr, Au and pure Ti ceramic alloys were incubated in DMEM to prepare alloy leaching liquor, which were then added in HGF medium at 10% concentration. DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum was used in negative controls. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The expression of P70S6k in each group was measured by Western Blotting following 72 hours of intervention with alloy leaching liquor.RESULTS: Western-blot results showed that there was no significant difference in the average gray value of P70S6k expression in Au, pure Ti ceramic alloys and control groups (P > 0.05). There was also no significant difference between Au ceramic alloys and pure Ti ceramic alloys groups or between Ni-Cr ceramic alloys and Co-Cr ceramic alloys groups. (P > 0.05), but Ni-Cr ceramic alloys group or Co-Cr ceramic alloys group showed significant difference compared with the Au, pure Ti ceramic alloys and control groups (P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: Au ceramic alloys and pure Ti ceramic alloys show that they have no obvious effect on the proliferation activity of HGFs. Ni-Cr and Co-Cr ceramic alloys showed an inhibitory effect on the proliferation activity of HGFs.

Objective: To observe the therapeutic effect of acupuncture plus psychological intervention for postpartum depression.
Methods: By random number table, 85 patients with postpartum depression were divided into a treatment group and a control group. Forty-three cases in the treatment group were treated by acupuncture plus psychological intervention, once every day, five sessions per week, and rest at weekend. Forty-two cases in the control group were treated by oral administration of Fluoxetine Hydrochloride, 20 mg, once per day. The two groups were treated continuously for six weeks. The change of the score in Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) was observed and the therapeutic effect was summarized.
Results:The total effective rate was 90.7%in the treatment group and 90.5% in the control group. The difference in the total effective rate between two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05). In the intra-group comparisons of HAMD scores two, four and six weeks after treatment in both groups with those before treatment, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). In comparison between the two groups at the same time point, the differences in HAMD scores were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Regarding the adverse events, 5 cases had nausea, 3 cases had dizziness, and 6 cases had poor appetite in the control group; no obvious adverse events happened in the treatment group.
Conclusion:Acupuncture plus psychological intervention for postpartum depression is as same as oral administration of Fluoxetine Hydrochloride in therapeutic effects, but it does not have adverse reaction.
