高效液相色谱法测定炎痛净乳膏中双氯芬酸钠和苯佐卡因的含量

目的：测定炎痛净乳膏中双氯芬酸钠和苯佐卡因的含量。方法：高效液想象以谱法，甲醇为提取溶剂，地西泮为内标，No-va-PakC18色谱柱，甲醇-水-冰醋酸（80：20：0.5)为流动相，检测波长为283nm。结果：双氯芬酸钠和苯佐卡因在5μg/ml-40μg/ml范围内，其浓度与峰面积均呈良好的线性关系（r=0.9999)，平均回收率分别为101.0%,RSD=1.21%,99.8%,RSD=0.62%。结论：本法专属性强，操作简便，结果准确。     

Intracerebral pneumatocele: CT findings

Two cases of intracerebral pneumatocele following trauma are presented. One to two months after initial treatment both patients had deteriorating neurologic status. The diagnosis was made by radiography. When a pneumatocele is suspected clinically, computed tomography can play a vital role in determining the precise location of the gas collection, its relationship to the fracture site, and the amount of mass effect on the brain.     

HIV-1tat induced apoptosis of T-cells is not mediated by TGF-β

Recent reports have demonstrated that the HIV-1 transactivator protein,tat, induces apoptosis in T-lymphocyte cell lines, as well as in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and stimulates a cascade of events resulting in up-regulation of the potent immunosuppressive cytokine, transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). In this study we evaluated the ability of TGF-β to mediatetat induced apoptosis in T-lymphocyte cell lines. T-cells treated exogenously with either TGF-β1 or a combination of tat and pan-specific TGF-β neutralizing antibodies showed little change in the amount of apoptosis. When treated with pan-specific TGF-β neutralizing antibodies, Jurkat cells that stably expresstat protein (Jurkat-tat) showed only a modest decrease in apoptosis, while CEM-TART cells (CEM T-cells expressing both HIV-1tat andrev) demonstrated little change in the amount of apoptosis. In conclusion, we have demonstrated that TGF-β does not play a significant role in mediatingtat induced T-cell apoptosis.     

Breastfeeding and childhood asthma: a six-year population-based cohort study

Background  

The question of the protective effect of breastfeeding on development of asthma has raised substantial interest, but the scientific evidence of the optimal duration of breastfeeding is controversial.
