ABSTRACT
Based on public information on projects of medical and health technology development program in Shandong province,this article analyses the project approvals in Shandong medicine and health technology development program from 2005 to 2009.Characteristics in terms of project category,funding amount,host institution,subject distribution,etc.are presented,so as to provide reference for the relevant policy makers.
ABSTRACT
Aim: To prepare a novel contraceptive patch containing gestodene(GEST) and ethinylestradiol(EE), and to study the in vitro characterization and in vivo contraceptive effect. Methods: Double-layer technique was applied to sustain steady 7-day permeation flux of drugs. Polariscope examination was carried out to observe the drug distribution behavior in the patch. Uniformity, adhesion, skin irritation, release and permeation tests were conducted to evaluate in vitro characterization. Anti-implantation and anti-fertility experiments were carried out to investigate its contraceptive effect. Results: The in vitro release profiles of both drugs were in accordance with Higuchi equation. The daily permeated amount of GEST per 10 cm2 patch was about 75 μg while the amount of EE was 30 μg.The in vitro transdermal permeation of both drugs from the patches displayed a zero-order process. Permeation rate constants were 0. 377 μg/(cm2·h) for GEST, and 0. 092 μg/(cm2· h) for EE, respec-tively. After transdermal administration, the embryonic number of the test groups was zero, and the uterus coefficients of those groups were significantly reduced compared with those of the control group (P < 0. 01). Conclusion: Double-layer transdermal drug delivery system(TDDS) could allow the steady 7-day permeation flux of drugs when the drug ratio between the immediate-release layer and the reservoir layer was 1:4. In vivo charac-terization demonstrated its contraceptive effects. The prepared novel patch might be a promising non-oral contra-ceptive preparation.
ABSTRACT
Objective To know the academic background of the researchers granted by state elevenfive programs in population and health.Methods Using the BibliometriCS the obtained data were analyzed statistically.Result The 135 prineiole investigators(PIs)totally published 5154 papers.47.42% of them were published in high level Journals and the universities and institutes accounted for 90% of 5154 published papers together.The first three authors for the PIs in the papers were relatively higher than nonPIs.The percentage of discipline compatibility between published papers and the projeets reached 91.05%.Conclusions The result of bibliometrics analysis indicated that most projeet PIs had a solid research background and high academic influence in their careers.
