Development of an LC‐MS/MS method for determining the pharmacokinetics of clonidine following oral administration of Zhenju antihypertensive compound

Zhenju antihypertensive compound (ZJAHC) is a combined Chinese–Western medicine formula including clonidine (CLO), hydrochlorothiazide (HCT), rutin, Chrysanthemum indicum extract and pearl powder. Compared with CLO preparations, ZJAHC shows improved activities and decreased adverse effects. It is believed that the side effects of CLO are caused by its high peak plasma concentration. Hence, study of the influence of ZJAHC on the pharmacokinetic behaviors of clonidine seems essential. In present study, the plasma concentrations of CLO were determined with a liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS) method. The MS/MS transitions monitored for clonidine and internal standard were 230.2 → 213.1 and 152.2 → 110.2, respectively. The analyte was quantified in a single run within 3 min. The pharmacokinetic study showed that the area under the plasma concentration–time curve of CLO in ZJAHC (60 µg/kg CLO) was similar to that of CLO‐HCT‐high (120 µg/kg CLO) but the peak concentration was much lower than that in CLO‐HCT‐high. ZJAHC could enhance the bioavailability without greatly increasing peak concentration of clonidine. This comprehensive effect of enhancing the bioavailability and avoiding the high peak plasma concentration for CLO might mainly result from the co‐contribution of Western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), while the effect of TCM was stronger than that of Western medicine.

三维打印器件后处理液研究

分析了不同的填充强化剂(后处理A液)、不同的后处理B液基料、后处理B液中水性环氧乳液的掺量及后处理液浸泡时间对石膏基打印器件耐水性、抗压强度、尺寸偏差、表面微观结构的影响.结果表明:经纳米硅超硬固化剂处理后的打印器件抗压强度大幅提高,纳米硅超硬固化剂最适宜作为后处理A液;水性聚氨酯乳液PU-202B最适宜作为后处理B液的基料;后处理B液中加入水性环氧乳液,处理后打印器件的抗压强度增加、吸水率降低,但水性环氧乳液含量增加到一定程度后会出现尺寸偏差;后处理A、B液最佳浸泡时间分别为130 s和35 s;先浸泡后处理A液、后浸泡后处理B液的打印器件具有抗压强度高、吸水率小、表面较光滑、不脱粉等优良性能.     

Existence of the uniformly minimum risk equivariant estimators of parameters in a class of normal linear models

In this paper, we study the existence of the uniformly minimum risk equivariant (UMRE) estimators of parameters in a class of normal linear models, which include the normal variance components model, the growth curve model, the extended growth curve model, and the seemingly unrelated regression equations model, and so on. The necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the existence of UMRE estimators of the estimable linear functions of regression coefficients, the covariance matrixV and (trV)^α, where α > 0 is known, in the models under an affine group of transformations for quadratic losses and matrix losses, respectively. Under the (extended) growth curve model and the seemingly unrelated regression equations model, the conclusions given in literature for estimating regression coefficients can be derived by applying the general results in this paper, and the sufficient conditions for non-existence of UMRE estimators ofV and tr(V) are expanded to be necessary and sufficient conditions. In addition, the necessary and sufficient conditions that there exist UMRE estimators of parameters in the variance components model are obtained for the first time.     

双掺(Tm3+,Tb3+)LiYF4激光器1.5 μm波长激光阈值分析

由速率方程推出了双掺（Tm^3 ,Tb^3 ）离子准四能级系统的激光阈值解析式，讨论了Tm^3 和Tb^3 离子之间的相互作用。分析了1.5μm波长附近的激光阈值和Tm^3 、Tb^3 离子的掺杂原子数分数及晶体长度的关系。结果表明，对于对应Tm^3 离子^3H4→^3F4跃迁的约1.5μm波长的激光，激活离子Tm^3 的掺杂原子数分数过大时，交叉弛豫作用将使系统阈值迅速增加。Tb^3 离子的加入，一方面能抽空激光下能级，起到降低阈值的作用；另一方面亦减少了激光上能级的寿命，使阈值升高。故Tb^3 离子有最佳掺杂原子数分数。对于Tm原子数分数为y=0.01的Tm:LiYF4晶体，Tb^3 离子的最佳掺杂原子数分数为0.002左右，同时表明，激光阈值与晶体长度有关。最佳晶体长度与Tm^3 、Tb^3 离子的掺杂原子数分数以及晶体的衍射损耗和吸收损耗有关。

拮抗肌对的协同控制与EMG信号的中值频率关系

探讨在持续恒力收缩时,正常人体肘关节主动肌和桔抗肌的协同作用原理与它们的表面EMG信号中值频率(Median Frequency,MF)的变化趋势,研究它们的疲劳行为。十五个正常受试者的实验数据统计结果表明,拮抗肌的SEMG/MF高于主动肌;随着收缩时间的增加,主动肌和拮抗肌的MF几乎以相同的速率下降;收缩力越大,它们的两条拟合直线之间的距离、互相关系数、下降速率也越大;关节的角度的变化对上述结论似乎没有明显的影响。这些结论对屈曲和伸展模式都成立。利用人体组织的幅度衰减特性和频率衰减特性,神经肌肉系统的“共驱动”概念对上述结果进行了讨论。
