ABSTRACT
Objective To study the current situation of chronic diseases among island residents who have drunken desalinated water for a long time， and to reveal the relationship between drinking desalinated water and water from other sources and the prevalence of chronic diseases among the population. Methods According to the different drinking water sources of island residents， the research subjects were divided into seawater desalination group （residents of Gouqi Township， Shengsi County）， mixed water source group （residents of Shengshan Town， Shengsi County） and freshwater group （residents of Huanglong Township， Shengsi County）. Through the chronic disease network report and resident health file system， the current situation of chronic diseases in different water groups was investigated and analyzed. Results There were significant differences in the prevalence of malignant tumor among drinking water sources （ χ 2=23.867， P <0.001）， with the prevalence of mixed water group >desalination group >fresh water group. There were significant differences in the prevalence of coronary heart disease （ χ 2=194.883， P <0.001）， with the prevalence of mixed water group >desalination group >fresh water group. There were significant differences in the prevalence of stroke （ χ 2=35.637， P <0.001）， with the prevalence of fresh water group > mixed water group > desalination group. There was no significant difference in the prevalence of diabetes mellitus （ χ 2=2.808， P =0.246）， but there was significant difference in the age of onset of diabetes mellitus （ χ 2=7.368， P =0.001）， and significant difference in the prevalence of diabetes mellitus in the age group ≥55 （ χ 2=17.144， P <0.001）， and the onset age and prevalence were all in the order of fresh water group > desalination group > mixed water source group. There was no significant difference in the prevalence of hypertension （ χ 2=3.962， P =0.138）， but there was significant difference in the prevalence of hypertension in the age group ≥55 （ χ 2=20.734， P <0.001）， with the prevalence of fresh water group > desalination group > mixed water source group. Conclusion Long-term consumption of desalinated water by residents is correlated with malignant tumors， coronary heart disease and stroke， and has no correlation with diabetes and hypertension.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE：To study the analgesic effects of 4 sources of Curcumae Radix decoction pieces （Curcuma wenyujin ， C. kwangsiensis ，C. phaeocaulis and C. longa ），and compare the contents of curcumenol in their water extracts. METHODS ： Using aspirin as positive control ，acetic acid writhing method was used to investigate the effects of 4 sources of Curcumae Radix decoction pieces water extract on writhing latency and times of writhing in mice. The moisture contents of 4 sources of Curcumae Radix decoction pieces （10 batches of each source ，the same below ）were determined according to the drying method in 2015 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia （part Ⅳ）. The yield of water extract in 4 sources of Curcumae Radix decoction pieces were investigated by hot dipping method ，the contents of curcumenol in water extract of 4 sources of Curcumae Radix decoction pieces were determined by HPLC ，and comparison was conducted. RESULTS ：Compared with model group ，aspirin and water extracts of 4 sources of Curcumae Radix decoction pieces could significantly prolong the writhing latency of model mice ，and the water extracts of C. wenyujin and C. phaeocaulis could significantly reduce the writhing times of model mice （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. For C. wenyujin ，C. kwangsiensis ，C. phaeocaulis and C. longa ，the contents of moisture were 7.39％-8.80％，7.88％-9.88％，7.66％- 10.5468/ogs.2019.62.6.382 9.86％ and 7.68％-10.20％；the average yield of water extract were 46.30％，60.40％，38.65％，42.99％；the average contents of curcumenol in water extract were 0.271，0.066，0.310，0.058 mg/g. Except for a few batches ，the higher the yield of water extract，the higher the content of curcuminol in the same source of Curcumae Radix decoction pieces. CONCLUSIONS ：Four sources of Curcumae Radix decoction pieces have analgesic effect. The contents of curcumenol in C. wenyujin and C. phaeocaulis were similar ，and the contents of curcumenol in C. kwangsiensis and C. longa about 1/5 of that in C. phaeocaulis and C. wenyujin .
ABSTRACT
A rapid and accurate method of UFLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS combined with multivariate statistical analysis was established for the identification of Ainsliaea fragrans from different origins in this study. The A. fragrans from different producing areas of Jiangxi, Yunnan, Henan and Jiangsu were determined by UFLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS in the negative ion mode. And the data of the study were analyzed by the Markerview and other software for the PCA and OPLS-DA cluster analysis as well as t test. The results of the principal component analysis(PCA)showed that the main components from different origins were well distinguished. And the results of multivariate statistical showed the differences and similarities between different producing areas. Besides, 40 different compounds were identified in the negative ion mode. This method for identifying A. fragrans from different producing areas has the advantages of rapid accuracy and simplicity, which laid the foundation for the evaluation of the quality of the A. fragrans.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the determination of chlorogenic acid in honeysuckle stem and honeysuck-le from different sources in different harvest periods. Methods:A Waters C18 column(250 mm × 4. 6 mm,5 μm)was used. The mo-bile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0. 4% H3 PO4(10:90)with the flow rate of 1. 0 ml·min-1 . The detection wavelength was 327 nm and the column temperature was 30℃. An external standard method was established for the determination of chlorogenic acid in honey-suckle stem and honeysuckle in six different harvest periods from three sources. Results:There was a good linear relationship within the range of 0. 065-1. 300 μg for chlorogenic acid(r=0. 999 8). The content of chlorogenic acid in honeysuckle was the highest in Sep-tember and October. The content of chlorogenic acid in Lonicera acuminata was the highest among the honeysuckle stem from three dif-ferent sources. Conclusion:The content of chlorogenic acid in honeysuckle has a certain relationship with the harvest time,which can provide theoretical basis for the choice of harvest time for honeysuckle stem.
