Recent advances in drug delivery applications of cubosomes, hexosomes, and solid lipid nanoparticles

The use of lipid nanocarriers for drug delivery applications is an active research area, and a great interest has particularly been shown in the past two decades. Among different lipid nanocarriers,

Exploring the utility of the Chasing Principle: influence of drug-free SNEDDS composition on solubilization of carvedilol, cinnarizine and R3040 in aqueous suspension

This study assessed the influence of the composition of drug-free SNEDDS co-dosed with aqueous suspensions of carvedilol (CAR), cinnarizine (CIN) or R3040 on drug solubilization in a two-compartment lipolysis model. Correlation of drug log or solubility in SNEDDS with drug solubilization during lipolysis in the presence of drug-free SNEDDS was assessed. SNEDDS with varying ratios of soybean oil:Maisine 35-1 (1:1, /) and Kolliphor RH40, with ethanol at 10% (/) were used. SNEDDS were named F65, F55 and F20 (numbers refer to the percentage of lipids) and aqueous suspensions without drug-free SNEDDS (F0) were also analyzed. While the ranking order of drug solubilization was F65=F55=F20>F0 for CAR; F65=F55>F20>F0 for CIN and F65=F55=F20>F0 for R3040 - with higher CAR solubilization than for R3040 and CIN - the ranking of of CAR, CIN and R3040 in SNEDDS was F65F20 and F65>F55>F20, respectively. Therefore, the composition of SNEDDS influenced the solubilization of CIN, but not CAR and R3040. Furthermore, high in SNEDDS did not reflect high drug solubilization. As CAR (log 3.8) showed higher solubilization than CIN (log 5.8) and R3040 (log 10.4), a correlation between drug log and drug solubilization was observed.

Effect of traditional Chinese medicine wine combired with electromagnetic therapy for the neck,shoulder, back and leg pain / 现代临床护理

Objectives To explore the effect of traditional Chinese medicine wine combired with electromagnetic therapy for the neck,shoulder,back and leg pain. Methods Eighty cases of patients with neck,shoulder,back and leg pain were randomly divided into 2 groups,with 40 cases in each group,treatment group was given the traditional Chinese medicine wine and electromagnetic therapy,the control group was prescribed(only with electromagnetic therapy),use the numerical rating scale to observe the effects of two groups before therapy,3 days and 7 days after therapy . Result After treatment,the pain of the treatment group was relieved significantly better than that of the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion Traditional Chinese medicine wine combired with electromagnetic therapy for the neck,shoulder,back and leg pain has satisfactory effect,and is worthy to promotion.

Food intake pattern and dyslipidemia in air force pilots / 中华健康管理学杂志

Objective To investigate current dietary and dyslipidemia status of air force pilots.Methods Energy expenditure was calculated by using daily-activity-recording method.Dietary survey was performed through weighing method.Body measurements were carried out according to military criteria.Double agent enzymic method was used to detect blood lipid profiles.The results were compared in 1997 and 1982.t or x2 test was used for data analysis.Results Excessive energy consumption and highprotein and fat or low-carbohydrate intake was found in the participants.Energy from fat or carbohydrate accounted for 47.3％ and 37.9％,respectively.Obesity and overweight was found in 20.8％ air force pilots,and hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia occurred in 47.9％ and 17.7％,respectively.Conclusion Dietary pattern and energy metabolism are inappropriate in air force pilots as a result of dyslipidemia.
