The linear range of morphine and codeine phosphate were batches of Keqing capsules were 0.97-1.37，0.16-0.37 mg/g，respectively. CONCLUSIONS ：TLC identification method for R. carnea and M. alba ，as well as HPLC content determination method for morphine and codeine phosphate in Keqing capsules are established；the method is simple ，accurate and reliable with strong specificity ，which improves the quality standard of Keqing capsules.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) on anal human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected men who sex with men (MSM).Methods HIV-infected MSM naive of cART who visited Wuhan Dermatological Hospital from June 2012 to December 2013 were enrolled in a longitudinal study before starting cART,including 81 HIV-positive and 50 HIV-negative cases.HPV infection situations between HIV-positive and HIV-negative MSM were compared.And anal HPV infection rate and condyloma acuminate incidence of HIV-positive MSM before and after cART were also compared.HPV genotyping was performed by universal primer PCR and reverse dot hybridization.The statistical analysis was done by t test or x2 test.Results The prevalence rates of HPV infection,high-risk HPV infection and multiple HPV subtypes infection in HIV-positive MSM were all significantly higher than those in HIV-negative MSM (91.4 ％ vs 62.0 ％,75.3 ％ vs 30.0 ％,56.8 ％ vs 20.0 ％,respectively,x2 =16.75,26.05,and 19.10,respectively,all P＜0.05).The prevalence rates of anal HPV infection,high-risk HPV infection and multiple HPV subtypes infection in 77 HIV-positive MSM at month 36 of cART were all significantly decreased than baseline (90.9％ vs 74.0％,75.3％ vs 44.2％ and 57.1％ vs 41.5％,respectively,x2 =7.590,15.551,and 3.741,respectively,all P＜0.05).HPV16 and HPV43 infection rates were reduced from 27.3％ at baseline to 15.6％ and 13.0％,respectively at month 36 of cART (x2 =16.92 and 14.86,respectively,both P＜0.05).Condyloma acuminate incidence also reduced from 16.9％ at baseline to 5.2％ at month 36 (x2 =4.069,P＜0.05).Conclusions The prevalence of anal HPV infection in HIV-positive MSM is higher than HIV-negative MSM.cART could reduce the prevalence of anal HPV infection rate and condyloma acuminate incidence,especially high-risk HPV infection.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish chronic sleep deprivation mouse model,evaluate the learning and memory ability of mice and observe autophagy and apoptosis levels in mouse brain.Methods C57BL/6 mice (n =20) were randomly separated into sleep deprivation group and control group.After 2-month sleep deprivation by using an adapted multiple platform method,the behavioral performance of mice was measured by IntelliCage system.The expression of microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3-Ⅱ (LC3-Ⅱ) and Beclin-1 was detected by Western blotting.Confocol microscopy was used to observe autophagosome.In addition,terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) staining was performed to detect neuronal apoptosis level in mouse brain.Results The results of behavioral test showed that the incorrect visit ratio was much higher in sleep deprivation group than that in control group.Moreover,the expression of LC3-Ⅱ (sleep deprivation group 1.681 ± 0.186,control group 1.125 ±0.048,t =2.892,P =0.027 6) and Beclin-1 (sleep deprivation group 1.144 ±0.048,control group 1.006 ± 0.017,t =2.721,P =0.018 6) in mouse hippocampus and cortex was significantly elevated in sleep deprivation group than those in control group.Accordingly,the confocal microscopy observation also revealed an increased nuclear LC3-positive puncta in hippocampus and cortex of sleep deprived mice (hippocampus in sleep deprivation group 1.665 ± 0.153,in control group 0.819 ± 0.072,t =5.024,P =0.002 4;cortex in sleep deprivation group 1.925 ± 0.175,in control group 1.195 ± 0.111,t =3.521,P =0.012 5).In addition,TUNEL staining showed a much higher percentage of TUNEL-positive nuclei in these brain regions (hippocampus in sleep deprivation group 47.24 ± 4.15,in control group 19.26 ± 3.72,t =5.025,P =0.007 4;cortex in sleep deprivation group 42.25 ± 1.25,in control group 27.50 ± 3.23,t =4.262,P =0.005 3).Conclusions Chronic sleep deprivation can impair the learning and memory,increase the expression of LC3-Ⅱ and Beclin-1,elevate the formation of autophagosome,and promote apoptosis in mouse brain.These findings suggest that autophagy and apoptosis might be involved in the cognitive impairment induced by chronic sleep deprivation.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the clinical effect of uterine artery embolization on cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) and curettage opportunity.Methods Sixty-three patients with CSP received curettage after uterine artery embolization with gelfoam were selected.Among of them,21 cases received curettage within 24 h after uterine artery embolization (group A); 20 cases within 1-3 d (group B);22 cases within 4-7 d (group C).The intraoperative haemorrhage,serum β-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG)level resolution time,duration of hospital stay,hospitalization cost,postoperative complications were observed after the termination of the pregnancy.Results The duration of hospital stay and hospitalization cost in group A and group B were (10.5 ± 3.9),(10.2 ± 5.2) d and (7353 ± 962),(7594 ± 1032) yuan,respectively,and there was no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Which was lower than that in group C [(13.9 ± 5.4) d,(10 980 ± 1534) yuan],and there was significant difference(P ＜ 0.01).The intraoperative haemorrhage,serum β-hCG level resolution time and postoperative complications in group B and group C were(20.2 ± 8.8),(20.7 ± 9.3) ml and (25.9 ± 9.3),(25.7 ± 8.1) d and 40.0％(8/20),40.9％(9/22),and there was no significant difference(P＞ 0.05).But which was better than those in group A[(35.0 ± 10.7) ml,(20.5 ± 7.7) d,66.7％ (14/21)],and there was significant difference (P ＜0.01).Conclusions The treatment of curettage after the uterine artery embolization is a safe and effective method for CSP.There are fewer complications,shorter hospital stays and fewer hospitalization costs if receiving curettage within 1-3 d after uterine artery embolization.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare efficacy of female sterilization by modified Uchida technique and silver clips and to evaluate the influence on operation procedure and clinical effect with or without surgery training of service providers. Methods A comparative, multicenter clinical trial was performed in 18 county and township-level service centers. Totally 2198 women underwent sterilization from these 18 study center were divided into 1116 women sterilized by modified Uchida technique and 1082 women by silver clips.Those 18 centers were classified into 9 training groups which provide surgical skills of sterilization and other contents and 9 non training groups. Clinical documents of sterilization were recorded. All women were followup at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery. Results There were no complications during surgery by both sterilization. The failure rate was 2.03% (22/1082) in silver clip method and the mean operative time were ( 12. 4 ± 6. 4 ) minutes in training group and ( 14. 4 ± 8. 1 ) minutes in non training group. In modified Uchida method, the failure rate was 0. 18% (2/1116) and the mean operative time were (16. 2 ± 4. 9)minutes in training group and (19.0 ±8.6) minutes in non training group. The mean operative time between two groups reached statistical difference ( all P ＜ 0. 05 ). Total ended rate in modified Uchida technique were 2. 2/hundred women year in training group and 2. 5/hundred women year in non training group, and the rate of silver slips were 3. 9/hundred women year and 4. 8/hundred women year, which did not show significant difference ( all P ＞ 0. 05 ). There was no significant difference in acceptability and side effects of all women between two methods (P ＞ 0. 05). The training of service providers could influence acceptability of women (P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusions Clinical efficacy was not influenced by those two methods. The operative time and acceptability were improved by training surgeons in silver clips method.
