Clinical aspects of pelvic inflammatory disease

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a common and poorly managed condition. Untreated or inadequately treated, it leads to tubal infertility, ectopic pregnancy and chronic pelvic pain. Diagnostic difficulties are compounded by the wide variety of clinical presentations and the insensitivity and poor specificity of laboratory tests. Better recognition of mild and atypical disease needs a high index of suspicion whenever young, sexually active women present with gynaecological symptoms. Laparoscopy supplemented by microbiological tests and fimbrial minibiopsy should be regarded as the diagnostic 'gold standard' for research studies; new studies are required to identify techniques which might reduce under- and over-diagnosis. Early treatment reduces the risk of an adverse effect on fertility. Any therapeutic regimen selected should be effective against the common aetiological agents Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, genital mycoplasmas and aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Since at least 60% of cases of PID can be attributed to infection with a sexually transmitted organism, partner notification forms an essential part of management.

高效液相色谱法测定右旋儿茶素血浆浓度及药代动力学参数

本文建立了体液中右旋儿茶素的RP-HPLC测定方法。采用C_(18)键合相硅胶为填料的固相提取柱进行样品预处理,右旋儿茶素的提取回收率为79.8%.应用二极管阵列检测器对色谱峰纯度进行鉴定。该法精密度好,方法回收率近100%,日内、日间的变异系数为2.4～5.6%,血浓69.6～1160 ng/ml范围内呈线性关系,r=0.9993。家兔静注右旋儿茶素18mg/kg,其药代动力学过程符合二室模型,分布相半衰期为0.129 h,消除相半衰期为1.19h。     

石杉碱甲类似物的研究II.N-甲基吡啶酮石杉碱甲类似物的合成

石杉碱甲(1)是从中草药石杉属植物千层塔(Lycopodium serratum Thunb.)中分得的一种高效可逆的乙酰胆碱酯酶抑制剂,临床试验证实它对早老性痴呆症有显著疗效。本文报道N-甲基吡啶酮石杉碱甲类似物2和3的合成。2-甲氧基-5-甲氧羰基-11-亚甲基-5,9-甲撑环辛-7-烯并吡啶(9)在乙腈中用三甲基氯硅烷和碘化钠选择性脱保护以定量的产率得吡啶酮10,再用甲醇钠和碘甲烷甲基化得N-甲基吡啶酮11,11经碱性水解,Curtius重排和氨基的脱保护得N-甲基吡啶酮石杉碱甲类似物2。通过类似的途径从中间体2-甲氧基-5-甲氧羰基-7-甲基-11-酮-5,9-甲撑环辛-7-烯并吡啶(14)合成了类似物3。类似物2和3的乙酰胆碱酯酶抑制活性均低于天然石杉碱甲。
