Quality evaluation of Aster souliei based on quantitative analysis of multi-components by single marker / 药学学报

To establish a quantitative analysis of multi-components by single marker (QAMS) for the determination of Aster souliei Franch., the relative correction factors (fx) of neochlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, rutin, isoquercitrin, isochlorogenic acid B, isochlorogenic acid A, isochlorogenic acid C, quercetin, apigenin and kaempferol were established by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with chlorogenic acid as internal reference. Meanwhile, the content of each component was determined by the external standard method (ESM) and QAMS, and a linear regression model was established to verify the feasibility and accuracy of the QAMS. Hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA) and orthogonal partial least square discriminate analysis (OPLS-DA) were used to evaluate the quality of 23 batches of A. souliei. The results showed that the repeatability of each fx was good. The average content of neochlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, rutin, isoquercitrin, isochlorogenic acid B, isochlorogenic acid A, isochlorogenic acid C, quercetin, apigenin and kaempferol in 23 batches of A. souliei by QAMS was 0.165, 0.234, 6.115, 0.478, 0.484, 3.359, 1.382, 0.210, 0.172, and 0.057 mg·g-1, respectively. The mean content determined by the ESM method was 0.163, 0.235, 6.172, 0.479, 0.483, 3.343, 1.413, 0.207, 0.171, and 0.056 mg·g-1. The results of HCA and OPLS-DA analysis show that 23 batches of A. souliei can be divided into two groups based on caffeic acid content. The content of the first group was between 0.873 to 5.647 mg·g-1, while the second was between 8.524 to 16.705 mg·g-1. This QAMS method can be used to simply and quickly evaluate the quality A. souliei.

Results of thin-layer cytology and biopsy and the risk factors for residual and/or recurrence after loop elec-trosurgical excision procedure for cervical intraepithelial neoplastic lesions / 医学研究生学报

Objective The loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) is a major option for the treatment of cervical in-traepithelial neoplastic (CIN) lesions,but reports are rarely seen on the consistency of the result of post-LEEP pathology with that of preoperative biopsy as well as on the postoperative pathological upgrading of related factors. This study analyzes the consistency of the result of preoperative biopsy with that of post-LEEP pathology for CIN lesions and the risk factors for residual and/or recurrence after LEEP. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 1 089 patients with CIN lesions treated by LEEP in our hospital from May 2014 to A-pril 2017. All the patients underwent liquid-based thin-layer cytology (TCT) and vaginoscopic biopsy preoperatively,followed by analysis of the results of TCT,the consistency of the result of preoperative bi-opsy with that of post-LEEP pathology,and the risk factors for residu- al and/or recurrence after LEEP. Results Preoperative biopsy showed 447 cases of low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL),among which TCT revealed 85 cases negative for intraepithelial lesion and malignancy (NILM),with a false negative rate of LSIL of 19.0%. Of the 645 cases of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) revealed by preoperative biopsy,TCT manifes-ted 95 cases of NILM,with a false negative rate of HSIL of 14.7%,which was significantly lower than that of LSIL (P<0.05). Preop-erative biopsy showed 447 cases of LSIL,among which post-LEEP pathology manifested 316 cases of LSIL (70.69%) and 51 cases of HSIL (11.4%). Of the 635 cases of HSIL revealed by preoperative biopsy,post-LEEP pathology exhibited 4 cases (0.63%) of inva-sive cervical cancer (ICC). Multivariate analysis showed the risk factors for pathological upgrading after LEEP were sexual partners >2 (OR=0.139,95% CI: 0.034-0.561) and LSIL in TCT (OR=0.111,95% CI: 0.040-0.310) (P<0.05) and those for postopera-tive recurrence included positive incision margin (OR=2.970,95% CI: 1.010-8.733) and persistent human papilloma virus (HPV) infection (OR=5.446,95% CI: 3.109-9.540). Preoperative HPV16 infection was correlated with lesion residual and/or recurrence after LEEP (P<0.05). Conclusion LEEP can significantly improve the diagnosis rate of HSIL in low-grade CIN patients with high risk factors. The risk factors for lesion residual and/or recurrence after LEEP include HPV16 infection,lesion involvement of the inci-sion margin,and persistent HPV infection.

Image and hemodynamical features of pulmonary artery branches in COPD with pulmonary artery hypertension / 浙江大学学报·医学版

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the imaging and hemodynamical features of pulmonary artery branches in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) with ECG-gating was performed in 13 patients with clinical diagnosed COPD and 25 normal subjects. The thin-slice multiple plane reconstruction in systole and diastole phase was conducted, which in turn was used to generate the InSpace reconstructed images with reference frame of the main pulmonary artery and the first two grades branches, the contour of the branches was depicted. On the base of coordinates, the GAMBIT was used to generate nodes and furthermore meshes, then the software Fluent was used for numerical calculation and flow simulation. The velocity and pressure changes in the main pulmonary artery and the first two grades branches during different periods of cardiac cycle were observed in both groups.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>CTPA showed that the diameter of the main pulmonary before bifurcate and proximal of the first two branches was larger in systole period than that in diastole period. The diameter of the second segmental artery of right upper lobe was larger during diastole period. The length of the main pulmonary and the first two branches showed no significant difference in both diastole and systole periods. There was no significant difference in length of pulmonary arteries between COPD and normal groups. The main pulmonary to distal right pulmonary artery appeared larger in diastole period. Compared with normal, in COPD group several arteries increased in diameter including proximal and distal of the proximal right pulmonary artery and the proximal right pulmonary artery during systole and diastole periods. In systole period only the diameter of the main pulmonary before bifurcate got larger and the back basic segmental artery of both lower lobe show smaller than normal. The flow condition analysis in COPD and normal groups suggested higher pressure in pulmonary arteries during systole period than that in diastole period, both groups showed high pressure area below the branching point. In COPD patients the right lower lobe artery endured the most significant pressure fall during the two periods and high pressure distributed larger area than normal. Flow velocity in main branch was faster than lower grade branches and that in systole period was faster than that in diastole period. The trend of diffusion of high pressure area was more prominent in diastole period than normal and the influence more prominent.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The distal part of right pulmonary artery to lower lobe artery may be affected earlier when the pulmonary pressure increased. It is feasible to study the changes of flow condition in pulmonary artery branches though the combination of CTPA image and relevant software.</p>

Flow simulation of normal pulmonary artery branches based on CT image / 浙江大学学报·医学版

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the hemodynamics of the pulmonary artery (PA) in pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>With combined clinical hemodynamic measurements and CT data, the 3D model of PA and its branches was reconstructed to obtain the real 3D geometric structure of PA and its branches. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation was carried out for the reconstructed 3D geometric model of the PA and its branches with Womersley velocity as main pulmonary entrance conditions; then hemodynamic parameters of the PA and its branches in cardiac cycle were calculated and the changes of flow field, pressure, wall shear stress (WSS) at different times, and its impact on physiological processes were analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Simulation showed that the pressure of the main PA and the branches of the left and right PA was higher in the systolic period than that in the diastolic period; especially, the that of right PA and its interlobular artery was significantly higher than that of the left. The blood flow velocity of the main PA and its branches of right and left PA was significant different, the velocity was much higher at the distal of the right PA than that at the left. High WSS field formed at the proximal of the right PA before the branches during the systolic.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The right PA at the proximal and lower lobe artery are affected by much larger pressure and change firstly, so the change of morphological and functional of theses segments will be have more important value to prompt existence of the early PAH.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the experience of surgical treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis with endobronchial tuberculosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinical data of 85 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and endobronchial tuberculosis undergoing surgical resection from 1967 to 2004 were reviewed retrospectively. Forty-five cases were bronchial stenosis. Four cases were tracheal stenosis. Sixteen cases underwent right upper lobectomy. One case underwent right upper and middle lobectomy. Three cases underwent right middle lobectomy. Five cases underwent right middle and lower lobectomy. Two cases underwent right lower lobectomy. Twelve cases underwent left upper lobectomy. Four cases underwent left lower lobectomy. Eight cases were assisted with sleeve lobectomy. Six cases underwent right pneumonectomy (with partial tracheal resection and tracheal reconstruction in 3 cases). Thirty cases underwent left pneumonectomy. One case underwent left lower lobectomy who underwent left upper lobectomy 2 years ago. Four cases were assisted with sleeve pneumonectomy. Three cases underwent tracheal segment resection and tracheal reconstruction. One case underwent left upper bronchial and pulmonary artery sleeve resection. One case underwent biopsy.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>No surgical mortality occurred. There was 1 case of bronchopleural fistula and 1 case of empyema in the 35 cases (without sleeve lobectomy) who underwent lobectomy. There were 3 cases of bronchopleural fistula and 4 cases of empyema in the 33 cases (without sleeve pneumonectomy) who underwent pneumonectomy (P < 0.05). There were 5 cases of atelectasis in the 35 cases who underwent lobectomy and 3 cases of atelectasis in the 8 cases who underwent sleeve lobectomy (P < 0.01). In the follow-up of 3 to 10 years, 1 case died due to acute respiratory distress syndrome 7 years postoperatively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>It is important to resect all the tissue which has been infected. With the routine anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy during the perioperative period, the effect of surgical treatment is superior to others. Fewer pneumonectomy is also important.</p>
