ABSTRACT
Heavy metal pollution poses a serious threat to the environment and human health. Guizhou is a province with apparent regional features of heavy metal pollution such as lead, zinc, mercury, and arsenic in agriculture and mining soils. The coefficient of variation results showed that heavy metal pollution in the soils of agricultural planting areas and mine caves was closely related to human activities, and arsenic and zinc were greatly affected by human activities. In the water environment, mercury pollution presents in mine cave water samples, and cadmium, mercury, and lead pollution present in scenic park water samples. The results of single-factor pollution index showed that mercury in mine cave water samples and cadmium, mercury, and lead in scenic park water samples were graded as severe pollution. The results of Nemero pollution index showed the highest comprehensive pollution level of heavy metals was in scenic park water samples. In atmospheric dust fall, cadmium, mercury, lead are the most prominent pollution. Potential risks to ecological environment were identified for cadmium and mercury in all study areas and lead in other areas outside Wanshan. The results of integrated potential ecological risk index indicated a high-risk level of heavy metal pollution in atmospheric dust fall in the current study area. At present, the heavy metal pollutants in the environment of Guizhou are mainly originated from natural factors such as geological background content and soil-forming parent material, and human activities such as mining, metal smelting, agricultural activities, and sewage irrigation. The analysis showed serious heavy metal pollution in the environment of Guizhou, which caused harm to the local environment. It is crucial that environmental protection measures be taken during human activities.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate basic public health service personnel allocation in five regions of Guizhou province, providing reference and strategies for the construction of grass-roots disease prevention and control system in Guizhou province and the training of grass-roots public health service talents in colleges and universities.Methods:According to the topographical features of Guizhou province, stratified random sampling was completed in five regions including Guiyang, Zunyi, Liupanshui, Qianxinan Buyei and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Qiannan Buyei and Miao Autonomous Prefecture. Questionnaires and on-the-spot symposiums were conducted among basic public health service personnel from 20 township health centers and 20 community health service centers.Results:Women (82.7%), 25-35 years of age (41.7%), working years < 5 years (65.7%), and junior professional titles (59.7%) accounted for a higher proportion of the staff in the five regions. Basic public health service personnel in Guiyang had the highest percentage of undergraduate education (47.5%) and those in other regions had the highest percentage of a junior college education. 40.3% and 26.4% of basic public health service personnel were devoted to nursing and clinical specialties, and only 3.2% of basic public health service personnel were devoted to general practice and preventive medicine. The number of public health practitioners (assistants) per 10,000 residents was 0.05, and 43.5% of public health practitioners had multiple duties.Conclusion:The professional structure of public health personnel is not reasonable at the grass-roots level in Guizhou province. There is an extreme shortage of public health practitioners (assistants), the professional title is low, staffing is inadequate, and staff loss is serious.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of hot spring baths on blood pressure, resting heart rate, cardiovascular function related indicators and physical signs in population with high-normal blood pressure. Methods Residents of typical hot spring areas in Guizhou Province were included as the subjects. According to the epidemiological survey of the research group and the physical examination results before the intervention, combined with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 217 people with high normal blood pressure were selected as the observation subjects. The intervention of hot spring baths was carried out for four weeks, once time per day, 5 times per week, for 40-50 minutes each time. After the intervention, the blood pressure, resting heart rate and serum levels of creatine kinase(CK), lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), and α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase(α-HBDH)were detected, and the improvement of cardiovascular related signs(palpitation, dizziness/headache, cough/sputum and night sweats)were clinically examined. SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results Paired t-test results showed that the systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and resting heart rate of 217 high normal blood pressure subjects were significantly lower after hot spring baths(P < 0.01). Further analysis revealed that the number of people with high normal blood pressure dropped from 217 to 128 after the hot spring baths. Before the intervention, 95 of the 217 people with high-normal blood pressure had resting heart rates between 80 and 90 beats/min, and 35 of them above 90 beats/min. After the intervention, the resting heart rates of those above people decreased to 68 and 14, respectively. Serum levels of cardiovascular related indicators showed that CK, LDH, and α-HBDH levels in people with high-normal blood pressure decreased to some extent after the intervention, and CK level was significantly lower than that before the intervention(P < 0.05). The results of clinical examination showed that hot spring baths had a significant improvement effect on palpitation, dizziness/headache, cough/expectoration, and night sweats in people with high-normal blood pressure. Conclusion The typical hot spring baths in Guizhou Province can reduce the blood pressure and resting heart rate in population with high-normal blood pressure, and improve the cardiovascular function related indicators and physical signs to a certain extent.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the density, populations and habitats of malaria vector Anopheles in Guizhou Province from 2005 to 2019, so as to provide the evidence for formulating the countermeasures to tackle the risk of local transmission of imported malaria in the province. Methods The malaria vector Anopheles density and populations were monitored using human bait trapping and light trapping techniques in Guizhou Province from 2005 to 2019, and all captured Anopheles was morphologically identified and counted. In addition, the distribution of Anopheles habitats was investigated. Results During the period from 2005 through 2019, the malaria vector Anopheles density increased from early June in Guizhou Province, peaked on early July and then declined, which appeared a single peak. The greatest Anopheles density was seen on early August, 2018 [57.34 mosquitoes/(person-night)], and the lowest density was found on late October, 2009 [1.29 mosquitoes/(person-night)]. The annual mean Anopheles density slowly reduced from 17.91 mosquitoes/(person-night) in 2005 to 12.34 mosquitoes/(person-night) in 2012, with a 38.02% reduction (χ2trend = 115.04, P < 0.01), while the annual mean Anopheles density showed a tendency towards a rise from 2017 to 2019 (χ2trend = 420.00, P < 0.01). The malaria vector Anopheles was captured during the period between 19 : 00 and 7 : 00 of the next day in Guizhou Province from 2017 to 2019, with the overall density appearing a tendency towards a rise followed by a decline, and the Anopheles activity was highly frequent during the period between 19 : 00 and 21 : 00. The malaria vector Anopheles was monitored for 938 times using the light trapping method in Guizhou Province from 2005 to 2019, and a total of 52 781 Anopheles mosquitoes were captured, including 49 705 An. sinensis, 804 An. minimus, 238 An. anthropophagus, and 2 034 other Anopheles mosquitoes, with a significant difference seen in the Anopheles composition (χ2 = 165.68, P < 0.01). From 2017 to 2019, a total of 24 557 Anopheles mosquitoes were captured in human housings, outdoors and livestock housings in Guizhou Province, with 67.65% captured in livestock housings and 12.01% in human housings, and there was a significant difference in the number of Anopheles mosquitoes captured from the three types of habitats (χ2 = 55.04, P < 0.01). An. sinensis, An. minimus and An. anthropophagus were captured form all three types of habitats, in which 98.07% was An. sinensis, and 0.09% was An. anthropophagus. Conclusions The population structure of malaria vector Anopheles has changed in historically malaria-endemic areas of Guizhou Province, and An. sinensis has replaced An. minimus and An. anthropophagus to become the predominant malaria vector. The malaria vector Anopheles density has shown a tendency towards a rise in Guizhou Province during the recent years, and there have been a rise in the type and number of Anopheles mosquitoes, leading to a potential risk of local transmission of imported malaria. Long-term, persistent and extensive surveillance of malaria vectors is recommended in Guizhou Province.

ABSTRACT
To screen the active fractions with lithagogue effects of Pyrrosia lingua from Guizhou province and preliminarily investigate its mechanism. The rats were fed with 1% ethylene glycol and 2% ammonium chloride to establish the nephrolithiasis models, which were used to evaluate thelithagogue effects of different polar fractions of P. lingua from Guizhou province. The level of urinary calcium and oxalic acid in urine, renal calcium, oxalic acid, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase(CAT) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in renal tissues,as well as crystalline deposit and lithogenesis in renal tissues and the levels of creatinine(Cr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) in the serum were detected. The effective compounds were inferred from the analysis of active fractions extract based on LC-MS technology. Petroleum ether fraction and dichloromethane fraction of P. lingua from Guizhou province can reduce renal oxalic acid and renal calcium concentration, increase urinary oxalic acid and urine calcium, with significant inhibitory effect on the formation of renal calculus in rats, significantly increase SOD and CAT activities in renal tissues, and significantly reduce MDA levels. LC-MS analysis showed that the caffeine, citric acid and tartaric acid among the compounds from petroleum ether fraction and dichloromethane fraction had lithagogue effects. Both the petroleum ether fraction and dichloromethane fraction of P. lingua from Guizhou province showed good effect on prevention and treatment of calculus in middle dose groups, and the mechanism may be associated with antioxidation, reducing calcium oxalate crystal deposition, and promoting calcium oxalatecrystal release, in addition, caffeine, citric acid and tartaric acid had lithagogue effects.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the sustainable development of pharmaceutical enterprises in Guizhou prov-ince. METHODS:A questionnaire was conducted for 55 pharmaceutical enterprises in Guizhou province,the basic situation of en-terprises,familiarity of related directors to Good Manufacture Practice of Drugs(GMP)and relevant policy,the current situation of implementing the new version GMP were investigated and statistically analyzed,problems were found,and corresponding coun-termeasures were put forward. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:Totally 55 questionnaires were sent out,49 valid ones were received with effectively recovery of 85.1%. The results showed 43 enterprises(87.8%)had passed the GMP authentication;only 13 enter-prises(26.5%)directors were very familiar with the new version GMP. In terms of personnel management,the head of production management and quality management and the authorized person of quality and personnel had not yet met related requirements of the new version GMP fully;in terms of equipment and production management,production area transformation(clean areas,lounges, warehouses,water use) and air purification system design in most enterprises met related requirements of the new version GMP, 23 enterprises (46.9%) still can not conduct fully inspection to products and materials;in terms of document management,there were still some enterprises not meeting the new version GMP standards fully,enterprises'documents(health area layout,air purifi-cation layout,management procedures,operating procedures,etc.) of production site were imperfect. According to the investiga-tion,the main existing problems included lack of funds in implementing the new version GMP reform,not enough understanding or familiarity with the new version GMP,relevant personnel management not reaching the designated position,equipment and pro-duction management needing to be strengthened,document management systemic being poor,risk management being not sound, etc. It is suggested that government should give all forms of capital policy and strengthen the training of the new version GMP;en-terprises should attach great importance to the relevant personnel management,strengthen the equipment and production manage-ment,set up perfect document management system and a sound system of risk management.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the sustainable development of pharmaceutical industry in Guizhou province.METHODS:By literature review,personal interview and questionnaire survey,the current situation about the development of pharmaceutical industry in Guizhou province were investigated and analyzed,and the corresponding countermeasures and suggestions were put forward.RESULTS:The literatures were obtained from network literature by Baidu search engine,published data by government portal website of administrative department,documents by CNKI and VIE Five personal interviews involved the relevant management personnel in Policies and Regulations Department,Medicine and Cosmetics Production Supervision Department,Medical Device Supervision Department of Guizhou Province Food and Drug Administration.A total of 70 questionnaires (drug production enterprises as object) were sent out,and 57 valid questionnaires were collected with the effective recovery rate of 81.4％.In the present,there were a total of 175 pharmaceutical production enterprises (56.5％ in Guiyang city) and 106 medical device manufacturers in Guizhou province.Of 57 pharmaceutical manufacturing enterprises investigated,87.8％ of them were certified by the 2010 edition of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP).The number of varieties of Chinese herbal medicines in Guizhou province ranked second in the whole country;total area of Chinese herbal medicine planting,wild protection and tending ranked third in the whole country in 2015;the industrial output value of Chinese patent medicine accounted for 85.1％ of the total output value of the pharmaceutical industry;but no approved new medicines were class 1 and 2 new medicines;R&D personnel with high education levels took small proportion significantly.The output capacity of chemical medicine industry was far lower than the average national level;the chemical industry output value accounted for only about 10％ of the total output value of the pharmaceutical industry in the province;the rate of success approval was almost zero for new drugs declared by drug manufacturers in recent years.Biological products industry was an emerging industry,currently there were only 3 biological products production enterprises.Of 341 products in medical device industry,there were 146 class Ⅰ products,190 class Ⅱ products and 5 classⅢproducts,manifesting as narrow coverage,few production type,relatively backward level.Seven percent of pharmaceutical production enterprise involved in the derivatives industry,and the development of TCM health care industry attracted more and more attention.CONCLUSIONS:The Chinese and national medicine industry has been the dominant force,the development of chemical medicine,biological products and medical device indusmy has lagged behind,and medicine derivatives industry needs to promote the integration of TCM and health-and-fitness.Thewhole industry strategic consciousness is comparatively backward,high-end R&D personnel is lack,and independent innovation ability is weak.It is suggested to done the top design,guide enterprises mergers and restructuring;develop characteristic medicine,support small molecule chemical medicines and biological products enterprises deeply;deepen the understanding of industrial policy,and increase investment in independent innovation;develop new medicine derivatives,and expand the pharmaceutical e-commerce sales channel;broaden the industry chain depth,breadth and width,and excavate medical big data.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for benign sustainable development of traditional Chinese and ethnic medicine enterprises in Guizhou. METHODS:Taking 129 traditional Chinese and ethnic medicine enterprises of 9 city and prefecture in Gui-zhou as survey object,questionnaires survey was conducted in 55 enterprises by stratified sampling according to location. The data statistical analysis was carried out in respects of related policies familiarity,product positioning,independent innovation from 2009 to 2013. Relevant development countermeasures were put forward. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:45.1% of enterprises ex-pressed to know and be familiar with relevant policies,51.0% expressed to alert but only understand,and 3.9% said largely un-known. At the past five years,the annual output value and sales revenue of enterprises had risen year by year. Almost 80% produc-tion and technical personnel of enterprises had the junior title or no title;marketing department staff mainly had college and second-ary school degree,accounting for 47.5% and 25.3% respectively;research personnel mainly had bachelor and college degree,ac-counting for 57.0% and 33.7% respectively. At the past five years,independent innovation input took up 2.4% of sales revenue av-eragely. There are problems,such as small and medium enterprises occupying dominate position;enterprises lacking of sufficient understanding on related policies;strategies being adjusted slowly;independent innovation input intensity needing to increase. Countermeasures and suggestions are put forward,such as strengthening the relevant policy advocacy,guiding corporate mergers and acquisitions,closely paying attention to industry development,changing innovation ideas,and attaching importance to research of exclusive production of essential medicine.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for contents determination of rutin,quercetin and total flavonoids in Buck-wheat,and compare the difference of flavone in buckwheat in different varieties and areas. METHODS:HPLC was adopted for content determination of rutin and quercetin:the column was Aglient C18 with mobile phase of methanol-0.4%phosphoric acid(gra-dient elution)at a flow rate of 1 ml/min,detection wavelength was 360 nm,column temperature was 40 ℃,and injection volume was 10 μl;UV spectrophotometry was adopted for content determination of total flavonoids:reference solution was methanol,de-tection wavelength was 360 nm,the standard was rutin. Statistical method was used to analyze the differences among the Fagopy-rum tataricum,F. esculentum and flavonoids of F. tataricum from different areas. RESULTS:The linear range was 0.400 9-16.03 μg for rutin (r=0.999 4) and 0.009 9-0.396 0 μg for quercetin (r=0.999 7),RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2%,recoveries were 99.33%-104.00%(RSD=1.32%,n=9) and 96.92%-101.66%(RSD=1.60%,n=9),re-spectively. The linear range of total flavonoids(recovded by rutin)was 4.14-41.4 mg/L(r=0.999 9),RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2,and recovery was 96.07%-101.96%(RSD=2.63%,n=9). The content of flavonoids on F. esculentum is significantly higher than in F. tataricum from the same area,and F. tataricum in Bijie area is better than other places. CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,stable,reproducible,and can be used for the contents determination of rutin, quercetin and total flavonoids in F. esculentum.
