[Preparation and intestinal absorption of Panax notoginseng saponins chitosan nanoparticles].

In this experiment, Panax notoginseng saponins chitosan nanoparticles(PNS-NPs) were prepared by self-assembly and their appearance, particle size, encapsulation efficiency, drug loading, polydispersity index(PDI), Zeta potential, and microstructure were characterized. The prepared PNS-NPs were intact in structure, with an average particle size of(209±0.258) nm, encapsulation efficiency of 42.34%±0.28%, a drug loading of 37.63%±0.85%, and a Zeta potential of(39.8±3.122) mV. The intestinal absorption of PNS-NPs in rats was further studied. The established HPLC method of PNS was employed to investigate the effects of pH, perfusion rate, and different drugs(PNS raw materials, Xuesaitong Capsules, and PNS-NPs). The absorption rate constant(K_a) and apparent permeability coefficient(P_(app)) in the duodenum, jejunum, ileum, and colon were calculated and analyzed. As illustrated by the results, the intestinal absorption of PNS-NPs was increased in the perfusion solution at pH 6.8(P<0.05), and perfusion rate had no significant effect on the K_a and P_(app) of PNS-NPs. The intestinal absorption of PNS-NPs was significantly different from that of PNS raw materials and Xuesaitong Capsules(P<0.05), and the intestinal absorption of PNS-NPs was significantly improved.

[Establishment of surgical blood ordering schedule and relative influential factors for tumor patients].

OBJECTIVE: To design a blood ordering schedule and explore the influencing factors of blood utilizing and ordering for tumor surgical patients. METHODS: For a total of 58 306 tumor surgical patients, 22 643 applications of blood ordering and 7430 person-times of blood utilization from October 2002 to May 2012 were retrospectively analyzed at Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. Their clinical profiles and test results were analyzed. RESULTS: The operative transfusion rate was 32.81%. According to the operation position and the blood transfusion and preparation data, the surgical blood ordering schedule of tumor patients was established. Patient gender, hemoglobin, hematocrit, platelet, total protein and albumin level test results had significant effect on the transfusion of red blood cells (OR = 0.797, 9.614, 1.949, 0.437,0.444, 2.038, all P < 0.05). Patient gender, hemoglobin, hematocrit, activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time, albumin and total protein level test results had significant effect on the transfusion of plasma (OR = 0.851, 1.367, 1.801, 1.652, 2.922, 2.224, 1.362, all P < 0.05) . CONCLUSION: For surgical tumor patients, blood ordering should be based upon the test results of routine blood, blood coagulation and protein level test results to ensure that blood transfusion is both rational and safe.
