Determination of polymethoxylated flavones in Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium from eleven cultivar origins / 中成药

AIM To determine the contents of polymethoxylated flavones in Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium from eleven cultivar origins.METHODS HPLC was applied to screening extraction solvents (methanol,anhydrous ethanol,95％ ethanol,ethyl acetate and petroleum ether).Ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry was adopted in the content determination of polymethoxylated flavones in eighteen batches of samples,nobiletin was taken as a reference substance,and the detection wavelength was set at 330 nm.RESULTS Ethyl acetate exhibited the best extraction effect,so it was selected as extraction solvent.Nobiletin showed a good linear relationship within the range of 3.024-13.104 μg/mL (R2 =0.999 8),whose average recovery was 101.37％ with the RSD of 1.34％.The contents of polymethoxylated flavones had obvious differences among samples from different cultivar origins,which were relatively high from Citrus reticulata ‘ Chachi’,Citrus reticulata ‘ Dahongpao’,Citrus reticulata ‘ Tangerina’,Citrus reticulata ‘ Ponkan’,Citrus reticulata ‘ Kinokuni’and Citrus reticulata ‘ Shiyueju’(more than 0.4％).CONCLUSION This simple and accurate method can effectively eliminate the interference of another flavonoids,which is suitable for the content determination of polymethoxylated flavones in Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium.

The application value of magnetic-controlled capsule endoscopy for gastric diseases in physical examination of asymptomatic population / 中华消化内镜杂志

Objective To investigate the application value of magnetic-controlled capsule endoscopy (MCE) for gastric diseases in physical examination of asymptomatic population.Methods Data of 211 asymptomatic individuals who received MCE examinations from July 2015 to December 2016 in Changhai Hospital were collected and rctrospectively analyzed.The tolerance and safety of MCE were studied by analyzing the detection rate for the focal lesions and the rate of endoscopy transfer.Results Among 211 patients,the detection rate of the gastric focal lesions was 9.5％ (20/211).The detection rate in male was higher than that in female (P＜0.05).All patients completed MCE examination successfully and no adverse event was reported.Conclusion MCE,a non-invasive endoscopic modality,is safe and better tolerated than conventional endoscopy,and can be used as a promising approach to screening the gastric diseases in asymptomatic population due to high detection rate of these diseases.

Effect of comorbidities on the surgical outcomes of elderly patients with hip fracture / 局解手术学杂志

Objective To explore the effect of comorbidities on the surgical outcomes of elderly patients with hip fracture. Methods The Age,gender,weight,type of fracture,preoperative comorbidities and surgical outcomes of 117 patients aged 80 yr or over who undergoing hip fracture surgery in our hospital were recorded. Patients were divided into rehabilitation group and postoperative in-hospital death group ac-cording to surgical outcomes. The potential predictors of postoperative in-hospital death were identified by univariate model and were then entered into multiple Logistic regression analysis. Results Twenty three patients(19. 7%)had no comorbidity,94 patients(80. 3%)had one or more comorbidities. Ten patients(8. 5%)died in hospital after the operation. Predictors of postoperative in-hospital death were preoperative respiratory diseases and three or more comorbidities. Conclusion Surgical outcomes of elderly patients with hip fracture may be predicted by analysing preoperative comorbidities. Preoperative preparations must be sufficient in order to ensure successful operation.

Validity of different formulas to predict lengths of the right internal jugular vein catheterization by anterior ap-proach / 局解手术学杂志

Objective To explore the most effective formula to predict the catheterization length of the right internal jugular vein by an-terior approach. Methods Sixty-seven cases performed with right internal jugular vein catheterization from January 2013 to June 2013 were enrolled in this study and 4 formulas were selected to predict the catheterization lengths. Comparing their predicted lengths with the actual lengths defined as the lengths of the internal catheters which terminals were inserted to a accurate position,and analyse their predictive validi-ty. Results The predictive error percentages of the 4 formulas were all less than 15%. Comparing the predicted lengths and the actual lengths, there was no difference between the predicted length of the 1st formula and the actual one(P>0. 05),and the predicted lengths of the other three formulas were significantly less than the actual ones(P0. 05). Conclusion The predictive error of all the 4 formulas is less than 15%, and the 1st formula is simple,practical and associated with a much smaller error,more suitable to estimate the length of the right internal jugular vein catheterization by anterior approach.

Design of Pure Capacitance Phonocardiogram Sensor Based on Phantom Power Supply / 医疗卫生装备

Objective To research a pure capacitance sensor for acquisition of cardiac phonocardiogram. Methods Under the phantom power supply (48V), the faint vibration signal of the heart was processed into electric signal by larger pre - treatment circuit module, shielded cable and the sensor pre-amplifier of circuit module. Results With some experiments, it can be proved that the sensor won't have affect on the sound field which frequency band under 1 000Hz and can detect the level of sound field like 20dB:30dB and 150dB or higher. Conclusion So with the sensor, the precise signal which can exactly reflect the status of patients' hearts can be detected, and it suits to work in complex condition for its high sensitivity, wide frequency band and low distortion.
