ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the ultrasound-assisted extraction process of Pogostemon cablin. Methods: Taking the extraction time (min), ethanol concentration (％), and liquid-solid ratio (mL · g-1) as influence factors, patchouli alcohol (PA) content as index, single-factor test was applied to the investigation of extraction-process of Pogostemon cablin. By ultrasonic-assisted extraction, the GC-FID was used to determine the PA content in extract. Results: The optimal extraction conditions were as follows: the ultrasonic time was 30 min, the ethanol concentration was 95％, and liquid-solid ratio was 20∶1 mL·g-1. Under this condition, the extraction rate and the content of PA were 32.75％, and0.15％ respectively. Conclusion: This extraction method is simple, but has higher extraction rate. It is suitable for the industrial production.
ABSTRACT
Objective To retrospectively analyze treatment status quo of giant cell tumor of bone around the knee in several institutes,and to investigate risk factors affecting selection of surgical manners,tumor recurrence,and functional outcomes.Methods A total of 222 patients with giant cell tumor of bone around the knee confirmed by pathology,who had undergone surgical treatment in 5 institutes from March 2000 to May 2012,were enrolled in this study.There were 120 males and 102 females,with an average age of 35.5 years.The epidemiology,clinical and radiographic features and risk factors affecting selection of surgical manners,tumor recurrence,and functional outcomes were analyzed.Results Intralesional curettage was performed in 128 patients(57.6％),intralesional curettage combined with partial resection in 13 patients (5.8％),and marginal excision in 79 patients (35.5％).A total of 159 patients were followed up.The local recurrence rate was 19.0％ for patients treated with intralesional curettage,8.9％ for marginal excision and 0％ for intralesional curettage combined with partial resection,and the total local recurrence rate was 14.5％(23/159).The mean duration from primary operation to recurrence was 23.9 months.Univariate analysis indicated that surgical manner was the only factor affecting local recurrence.Pathological fracture,Campanacci grades,Enneking system as well as soft tissue mass had a significant influence on the selection of surgical manners.The mean MSTS score after intralesional curettage was obviously higher than that after marginal excision.Conclusion The surgical manner is the only factor affecting local recurrence and limb function.
