Objective To observe the short-term effect of Paris polyphylla Smith var. yunnanensis powder combined with anti-tuberculosis drugs in the observation of superficial lymph node tuberculosis. Methods A total of 170 patients were randomly divided into two groups: 80 in the control group and 90 in the observation group. The observation group consisted of nodular type, infiltrating type and abscess type, each of which had 30 cases. The control group were treated with Isoniazid, Rifampicin, Pyrazinamide and Ethambutol. Besides the four medications, the observation group were treated with external application of Paris polyphylla Smith var. yunnanensis. Results The response rate was 30.00％in the control group and 64.44％in the observation group. The response rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( <0.01). In the observation group, the response rates of abscess, infiltration and nodule were 76.67％, 73.33％and 43.33％, respectively.By the comparative analysis, the response rate of infiltration was higher than that of nodule ( <0.05), with a significant difference; the response rate of abscess was also higher than that of nodule ( <0.05), with a significant difference. There was no significant difference between the response rates of abscess and infiltration ( >0.5) .Conclusions The external application of Paris polyphylla Smith var. yunnanensis powder combined with anti-tuberculosis drugs is curative in the observation of superficial lymph node tuberculosis, especially in the types ofinfiltrating and abscess.

Magnetic solid-phase extraction and ultrafast liquid chromatographic detection of Sudan dyes in red wines, juices, and mature vinegars.

A nanocomposite of polystyrene-coated magnetic nanoparticles was successfully synthesized and employed as adsorbent for magnetic solid-phase extraction of four Sudan dyes (I, II III, and IV) in red wines, juices, and mature vinegars. The prepared magnetic nanoparticles with highly hydrophobic properties have excellent adsorption capacity for these lipophilic Sudan dyes. Extraction conditions were optimized. Experimental results showed that the recoveries of the four Sudan dyes were very satisfactory when 70 mg of polystyrene-coated magnetic nanoparticles were used and the extraction could be completed within 20 min. It was proved that these magnetic nanoparticles can be reused after an easy washing process. By coupling the magnetic solid-phase extraction with ultrafast liquid chromatography-ultraviolet spectrometry, a rapid, green, effective, and sensitive method for the determination of Sudan dyes was developed. The LOD for Sudan I, Sudan II, Sudan III, and Sudan IV were 0.0039, 0.0063, 0.0057, and 0.017 ng/mL, respectively. Recoveries obtained by analyzing spiked water samples at three concentration levels (0.1, 1.0, and 10.0 ng/mL) were between 76.3 and 96.6%. The intra- and interday RSDs for the analytes were lower than 9.6%.

[Effect of technological parameters of sputtering on the microstructure of silicon film investigated by Raman analysis].

In order to facilitate optical polishing of silicon carbide space telescope, in the present paper, silicon film, which has similar coefficient of thermal expansion with silicon carbide, was fabricated on SiC substrate by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The effect of substrate temperature, radio frequency power, and substrate bias voltage was investigated by Raman scattering. The results indicate that at lower substrate temperature, the crystalline volume fraction of Si films increases with the increase in deposition temperature. Exceeding a certain temperature, the crystalline volume fraction decreases with further increasing deposition temperature; the increase in substrate bias voltage is bad for forming crystalline structure; the effect of radio power on microstructure of silicon film is comparatively complicated. As the rf power increases, the cluster size and crystallite volume fraction decrease, and both of them increase with further increasing the rf power. But when the rf power is too high, the crystallite volume fraction of the silicon film will decrease slightly.

[Spectroscopic ellipsometry investigations of amorphous diamond films deposited with filtered arc].

In order to investigate thoroughly the optical properties of amorphous diamond (alpha-D) films deposited by the filtered vacuum arc technology, the optical constants of the films were measured by spectroscopic ellipsometry. Moreover, the dispersion relations of the optical constants, and the correlations among refractive index, extinction coefficient, optical gap and the substrate bias were also analyzed. It has been shown that the refractive index of alpha-D films is higher than that of diamond crystal, and the absorption edge corresponding to the interband transformation can be described with the parabolic line shape. With increasing the wavelength, the extinction coefficient gradually declines and approaches nearly to zero in the infrared band. In addition, the adjustable amplitudes of the optical constants owing to the changing bias also reduce strikingly with the extension of the wavelength. With raising the bias, the refractive index and the optical gap firstly augment, then minish, and there is a maximal value when the substrate bias is -80 V. However, the extinction coefficient firstly minishes, then augments, and there is a minimal value when the bias is -80 V.
