ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To discuss the correlation between Interntion Normalized Ratio(INR)with concentration of warfarin enantiomer and dose density after cardiac valve replacement. METHODS:The plasma concentration of R-warfarin or S-warfarin, dose of unit weight and INR of 176 patients with anticoagulation after cardiac valve replacement in each time point were moni-tored,and the correlation of INR and warfarin plasma concentration or dose was observed. RESULTS:Doses of all patients in 24-288 h were significantly higher than 0 h,the differences were statistically significant(P0.05). Average plasma concentration of R-warfarin or S-warfarin had consistent trend,plasma concentration of enantiomers was fluctuated within a certain range after 108 h,there were no significant differences(P>0.05). Compared with 0 h,there was no significant difference when INR was 12 h (P>0.05),it increased significantly in 36 h and had been increasing,then fluctuated within a certain range after 108 h,compared with 108 h,there were no significant differences(P>0.05). The correlation coefficient between INR and unit weight dose of warfa-rin in 60 h>36 h>12 h,it showed correlation(P<0.001). There was certain correlation between plasma concentration of warfarin and dose density in 12,36 and 60 h. CONCLUSIONS:The correlation between plasma concentration of warfarin and unit weight dose is stronger than the correlation between INR and unit weight dose. When combined with other coagulation,it may help to man-age warfarin dose.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To established an HPLC method for the determination of main component and related substances in amlodipine maleate dispersible tablets. METHODS: The separation was performed on a Lichrospher C18 column. The mobile phase consisted of methanol-0.03 mol?L-1 potassium dihydrogen phosphate (70 ∶ 30) at the flow rate of 1 mL?min-1. The detection wavelength was set at 237 nm and column temperature was 30 ℃. RESULTS: The linear range of amlodipine maleate were 31.94～127.75 ?g?mL-1 (r=0.999 8, n=5). The average recovery was 99.5% (RSD=0.39%, n=9). The contents of related substance were all lower than 0.38%. CONCLUSION: The method is simple, rapid, accurate and specific for the quality control of amlodipine maleate dispersible tablets.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protective effect of scutellarin on ischemic injury in PC12 cells and explore its action mechanisms.METHODS:PC12 cells were treated with Na2S2O4 in combination with sugar deficiency to induce ischemic injury model.The survival rate of the PC12 cells were detected using MTT assay;and the activity of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)were detected.The apoptosis was confirmed by Hoechst 33342 staining and flow cytometric assay was performed to determine the apoptotic rate and the mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP)in PC12 cells.The concentration of cellular calcium ion(Ca2+)was detected by laser scanning confocal microscopy.RESULTS:Within the range of 10-7～10-5 mol?L-1,Scutellarin significantly increased the survival rate of the injured cells,decreased ischemic injury-induced LDH release within the cultured medium in a concentration dependent manner,decreased the apoptotic rate,stabilized mitochondrial transmembrane potential and decreased the intracellular concentration of Ca2+ in concentration-dependent manner.CONCLUSION:Scutellarin has remarkable protective effect on PC12 cells against the ischemic injury.The mechanism of the protection might be attributed to its action of stabilizing mitochondrial transmembrane potential and inhibiting on the inflow of Ca2+.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To valuate the antibiotic effects in vitro of Pazufloxacin combined with Cefoperazone/Sulbactam against 90 common pathogenic bacteria from hospital acquired infection. METHODS: The protocol was designed by checkerboard method. The MIC of two antibiotics alone or in combination against 90 strains (including 30 staphylococcus aureus, 30 Escherichia colis, 30 Pseudomonas aeruginosas) were detected by broth dilution method and the FIC index was calculated according to MIC values. RESULTS: The MIC of Pazufloxacin combined with cefoperazone/sulbactam against 90 strains was reduced significantly. The percentage of the FIC index maintained at less than 0.5, 0.5～1, 1～2, above 2 were 60.7%～80.0%, 20.0%～33.3%, 3.3%～6.6%, and 0% respectively. CONCLUSION: The antibiotic activity of Pazufloxacin combined with cefoperazone/sulbactam against 90 common iatrogenic strains from hospital acquired infection was enhanced significantly. Their antibacterial action in vitro was characterized by synergism and additive action instead of antagonistic effect.
