Rapid Determination of Bucinnazine in Blood by UPLC-MS/MS / 法医学杂志

OBJECTIVES@#To establish a rapid method for the analysis of bucinnazine in blood by UPLC-MS/MS and to apply the method to the practical case.@*METHODS@#After the internal standard was added to blood, the protein was precipitated with 900 μL mixed solution (Vacetonitrile∶Vwater=8∶2). After vortex and centrifugation, the protein was measured through 0.22 μm filter membrane. The separation was performed on C18 chromatography column, with acetonitrile and 5 mmol/L ammonium acetate containing 0.1% formic acid aqueous as mobile phase gradient elution at the flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. Multiple reaction monitoring scan was performed in electrospray positive ion mode, quantitative measurement was performed by internal standard method, and methodological verification was carried out.@*RESULTS@#The linear relationship of bucinnazine in blood was good in the range of 0.5-200 μg/L, the correlation coefficient (r) was 0.999 7, the limit of detection was 0.1 μg/L, the limit of quantitation was 0.5 μg/L, and the recovery was 78.3%-83.8% at 1, 10 and 100 μg/L mass concentration levels. The matrix effect was 69.4%-73.8%, the intra-day precision was 1.9%-2.8%, and the inter-day precision was 2.8%-3.2%, the accuracy was 3.1%-3.5%. The stability test results of 1 and 100 μg/L mass concentrations at -25 ℃ showed that the accuracy (bias) of 10 d was less than 4.5%.@*CONCLUSIONS@#This method has the advantages of simple pre-treatment process, fast sample processing speed, high sensitivity of instrument analysis, good stability of content determination and reliable identification results, and can meet the needs of case identification.

Treatment of acute infection around prosthesis with vacuum sealing drainage and sensitive antibiotics / 中国骨伤

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the therapeutic effects of vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) combined with antibiotics in treating acute periprosthetic joint infection (PJI).@*METHODS@#From March 2012 to December 2018, there were 11 patients with acute PJI underwent debridement, VSD, antibiotics and retention of implant, including 7 males and 4 females, with an average age of 72.5 years old (ranged, 58 to 88 years old). There were 8 hips and 3 knees. Three patients had sinus tract.@*RESULTS@#There were 2 patients with negative culture result and 9 patients with positive culture result, including 5 cases of methicillin sensitive staphylococcus aureus, 2 cases of methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), 2 cases of staphylococcus epidermidis. The mean follow up duration was 28 months (ranged from 8 to 52 months). One case of infection around hip prosthesis failed to be debrided. The time of debridement and replacement of the calcar joint was 84 days. Debridement was successful in 10 cases. At the latest follow up, Harris score of patients with successful debridement of hip periprosthetic infection ranged from 74 to 93, with an average score of 84.1;Knee Society scores of patients with periprosthetic infection were 84, 84, 89.@*CONCLUSION@#For acute infection around the prosthesis within 1 month after knee replacement and 6 weeks after hip replacement, and for bleeding around the prosthesis with acute infection caused by anticoagulant drugs, satisfactory results can be obtained by debridement, VSD and sensitive antibiotics.
