RESUMEN
Objective To compare the effect of puncture needles with different diameter on percutaneous biopsy for transplant kidney under ultrasound guidance. Methods A total of 82 cases underwent percutaneous renal biopsy for transplant kidney under ultrasound guidance,and were divided into two groups based on the diameters of puncture needles, Group 18 G (n =31)and Group 16 G (n =51).The effect of biopsy and complications were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with Group18 G,Group16 G used less puncture needles and obtained more glomeruli (both P <0.01).The qualified rate of renal specimens in Group 16 G was significantly higher than that of Group 18 G(P <0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative complications between the two groups (P >0.05 ).Further stratified comparison was conducted,and the results showed that complications of the two groups were not statistically significant in case of puncture with 2 needles or 3 needles (both P >0.05). Conclusions There is similar safety of 16 G puncture needle and 18 G puncture needle to perform renal biopsies under ultrasound guidance.Under the allowable condition of patients,16 G puncture needle is superior to 18 G puncture needle and realizes high quality of renal specimens.
RESUMEN
Objective To obtain the optimal extraction process of Prunella vulgaris L.Methods With the dependent variables of ethanol concentration,reflux time and solvent fold,and dependent variable of the amount of baicalin,Central Composite Design/Response Surface Method was applied to optimize the reflux extraction process.Predictions were carried out by comparing the observed and predicted values.Results The optimum conditions of extraction process were 45% ethanol,2 hours for reflux,4 fold sovent.Regression coefficients of binomial fitting complex model was 0.9759.Bias between observed values and predicted values was-3.86%.Conclusion The optimum model is simple,precise and highly predictive.
