| 3 | Efficacy and mechanism of methyl salicylate in the enhancement of skin delivery of herbal medicines显示文摘Objective: To elucidate the molecular mechanism(s) by which methyl salicylate enhances the skin delivery of herbal ingredients with diverse lipophilicity.Methods: The toxicity of methyl salicylate on skin cell lines was evaluated using the MTT assay. The Franz diffusion cell method was used to measure the permeability enhancing activities of methyl salicylate for five herbal ingredients with a range of lipophilicities. The interaction between methyl salicylate and the stratum corneum(SC) was observed by using an infrared spectroscopy technique. Moreover, the solubilities and SC-vehicle partition coefficient were determined to monitor the impact of methyl salicylate on the drug thermodynamic activities and partition into the SC layer, respectively.Results: Compared with azone(1-dodecylazacycloheptan-2-one), methyl salicylate showed lower toxicity to skin cells in terms of the IC50 values. The in vitro skin permeation studies showed that methyl salicylate could greatly improve the cumulative amounts or steady state flux of the selected model drugs with the exception of osthole, which indicated that methyl salicylate was prone to promote the skin delivery of hydrophilic drugs. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy studies revealed that methyl salicylate mainly interacted with SC lipids, leading to the disruption of the orderly arrangement of the SC.In addition, methyl salicylate had no obvious effect on the drug thermodynamic activity and partition into the SC.Conclusion: Methyl salicylate could effectively promote the skin delivery of relatively hydrophilic ingredients in externally used traditional Chinese medicines(TCM) without obvious cytotoxicity. | Jingyan Wang Xinyu Zhao Jiajia Chen Xin Li Doudou Hao Tingting Li Kai Mei Yi Lan Qing Wu | 2021 | Journal of Traditional Chinese Medical Sciences2021，8，4： | 0 |
| 4 | Spectral Characteristic of Phosgene in External Electric Field显示文摘Phosgene is highly toxic, and it plays a role in the depletion of the ozone layer. The ground state geometric structure and spectral characteristic of phosgene in various external electric fields were calculated via the density-functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) with the B3LYP/6-31+G(d) basis set. With external electric field, the structure of phosgene changed significantly. With increasing electric field, the bond lengths of 1C-3Cl and 1C-4Cl increased;the total energy and energy gap initially increased and then decreased, whereas the dipole moment initially decreased and then increased. Most of the IR vibrational frequencies were redshifted. The wavelength of the singlet excited state increased, reflecting a red shift, and the oscillator strengths of most transitions belonged to forbidden transitions. These results are of great significance for studying the dissociation of phosgene in external electric field. | Huan An Mei Xiang Bumaliya Abulimiti Jingyan Zhen | 2022 | Journal of Electronic Research and Application2022，6，2： | 0 |
| 5 | Outcomes of patients who have undergone laparoscopic abdominal cerclage:A retrospective study显示文摘Objective:This study aims to evaluate the surgical morbidity and obstetric outcomes following in-pregnancy or pre-pregnancy laparoscopic abdominal cerclage(LAC)for patients who were diagnosed with refractory cervical insufficiency or had a short cervix.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on patients undergoing LAC between May 2017 and May 2019 at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology,Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital.The patients were diagnosed with refractory cervical insufficiency based upon a previous failed transvaginal cervical cerclage(TVC),or had a short cervix who were considered unsuitable for a TVC after a previous cervical procedure.All patients were followed-up after surgery with transperineal ultrasonography until May 2020.Subsequently,surgical and obstetric data were collected and analyzed.Results:In total,44 patients underwent LAC,with 8 patients in-pregnancy and 36 pre-pregnancy.For the patient with pre-pregancy LAC,the pregnancy rate was 80.6%(29/36),including 3 patients with first-trimester loss,1 patient with an ectopic pregnancy,and 25 patients with a delivery.For the remaining 7 patients,3 did not conceive,and another 4 had no pregnancy plans.All the patients with in-pregnancy LAC had a delivery.The“take-home baby”rate was 89.2%(33/37),with a live-birth rate of 100%and a neonatal survival rate of 100%for both patients with in-pregnancy and pre-pregnancy LAC.For patients with in-pregnancy LAC,75.0%(6/8)patients delivered at≥37 wk of gestation,12.5%(1/8)delivered between 34 and 36^(+6)wk,and 12.5%(1/8)delivered between 28 and 33^(+6)wk.For patients with pre-pregnancy LAC,80.0%(20/25)patients delivered at≥37 wk of gestation,16.0%(4/25)delivered between 34 and 36^(+6)wk,and 4.0%(1/25)delivered between 28 and 33^(+6)wk.No adverse-event intra-operative or post-operative sequelae were noted.Conclusions:LAC is an effective and safe procedure that results in remarkable obstetric outcomes for women with refractory cervical insufficiency,or with a short cervix who are considered unsuitable for a TVC.The success rate of in-pregnancy or pre-pregnancy LAC depends on a full evaluation of patients,a proper peri-operative management and close follow-up. | Cuiyu Yang Dong Huang Yang Yang Jingyan Yang Yuyang Chen Mei Pan Songying Zhang | 2022 | Laparoscopic, Endoscopic and Robotic Surgery2022，5，3： | 0 |
