Chemical and statistical considerations in the determination of partition coefficients of weakly ionizable drugs and poisons

Equations have been developed that relate the concentration (or a parameter directly proportional to concentration, such as optical absorbance) of a weakly ionizable solute in a water-immiscible phase, in equilibrium with an aqueous phase, to the pH of the aqueous phase, the partition coefficient of the unionized solute and the phase volume ratio. These relationships have been used in the design of experimental methods for determining partition coefficients, which require measurement of solute concentration in only one phase. Data obtained in this way permit ready recognition of deviations from assumptions made in the development of the model; these assumptions include insolubility of the ionized solute in the water-immiscible phase and lack of interaction between buffer components and solute. Conditions for optimal liquid—liquid extraction of weakly ionizable solutes are more easily recognized. With these techniques, the negative logarithm of the acid dissociation constant (pK′_a) and the logarithm of the octanol—water partition coefficient (log P) have been measured for warfarin (pK′_a = 5.15 ± 0.04; log P = 2.82 ± 0.06), strychnine (pK′_a = 8.29 ± 0.02; log P = 2.23 ± 0.04), phenol (pK′_a = 9.88 ± 0.02; log P = 1.75 ± 0.05), procaine (pK′_a = 8.11 ± 0.04; log P = 1.10 ± 0.08), and ephedrine (pK′_a = 9.92 ± 0.01; log P = 1.65 ± 0.04) at 21°C.

基于变异系数评价重症医学科DRG分组效能研究

目的评价重症医学科DRG分组的效能,发现存在的问题,为DRG付费或绩效考核提供建议。方法采用DRG分组器获得样本医院2016―2019年出院患者的分组结果。在2555名重症医学科出院患者中选取病例数排名前5位的DRG组作为DRG研究组。在351148名全院出院患者中筛选出DRG研究组的所有病例。对入组同一个DRG组的患者,根据其所属的出院科室分为全院组(包括重症医学科和非重症医学科出院患者)和重症医学科组(仅包括重症医学科出院患者)。通过计算住院费用的变异系数评价全院组和重症医学科组的组内同质性。结果在同一个DRG组中,重症医学科出院患者组住院费用的变异系数低于全院出院患者组,即对于同一个DRG分组病种,重症医学科出院患者单独评价时组内住院费用的同质性更高。结论应用DRG付费或绩效考核时,针对重症医学科出院的患者应考虑细化DRG分组或调整分组权重,以便形成更加科学合理的疾病分组。

On the secondary stability of coated cementless hip replacement: parameters that affected interface strength

Unlike primary stability of coated cementless implants, their secondary stability has been poorly studied. This paper considers some theoretical aspects of the secondary stability of a coated cementless hip implant in a human femur. The bone is separated from the implant by a thin layer of microscopic peaks and troughs formed on the surface of the coating. The size of the peaks and troughs is very small compared with the macrosize of the implant stem and bone in contact. The study of the bone–stem contact by direct application of the finite element method is prohibitively costly. A two-scale asymptotic homogenisation procedure that takes into account the microgeometry of the interface layer and mechanical properties of bone and the implant material is applied to obtain effective, homogenised contact parameters. These parameters can be used in finite element analyses involving smooth interfaces, which require hundreds of times fewer finite elements. With the homogenisation technique and finite element analyses for a simplified design, two parameters were found to be most important—the normal contact stiffness and the friction coefficient. They both increase several times as bone grows into the rough surface of the implant and mineralises, thus providing a stronger interface and resulting in reduced micromotions.

The Development of a Predictive Method for the Estimation of Flux Through Polydimethylsiloxane Membranes. IV. Application to a Series of Substituted Quinolines

The steady-state flux of 33 substituted quinoline derivatives was determined in polydimethylsiloxane membranes using isopropyl alcohol as the receiver solvent. These diffusants constituted a diverse group of compounds possessing a wide range of hydrophobic, steric, and electronic characteristics. Various parameters representing these physicochemical properties such as cyclohexane–water fragmental constants, molar refractivity, Hammett's constants, intramolecular hydrogen bonding ability, melting point, and mole fraction solubility were employed to develop empirical models capable of relating the rate of diffusion to these characteristics of either the substituent on the quinoline ring or the compound itself.     

Natural frequency/damping coefficient relationship of the catheter-manometer system required for high-fidelity measurement of the pulmonary arterial pressure

Using a digital simulation method, we analyzed the relationship between natural frequency (f _n ) and damping coefficient () of the catheter-manometer system required for high-fidelity measurement of the pulmonary arterial pressure. The pulmonary artery pressure waveform was obtained with a catheter-tip transducer and it was fed into a dynamic simulator programmed on a computer. The original waveform and the output of the simulator were compared and judged visually for the fidelity. From this analysis, the combination of f _n and was obtained and was plotted on a f _n – diagram. It showed as an area, which was convex on the left side and open on the right side. The left-convex endpoint was located at a damping coefficient of about 0.7. At a lower heart rate, this area was extended to the lower frequency side, while, at a higher heart rate, this area was limited to the higher frequency side. The f _n – diagram was also constructed theoretically by calculating the relations between natural frequencies and damping coefficients of a second order system with the amplitude and phase error tolerance set at +/–5% respectively.(Kinefuchi Y, Suzuki T, Takiguchi M, et al.: Natural frequency/Damping coefficient relationship of the catheter-manometer system required for high-fidelity measurement of the pulmonary arterial pressure.
