RESUMO
Simulation-based medical education(SBME)is an important model in international medical education.With the development of SBME domestically,various forms such as in-situ simulation,team simulation,interdisciplinary simulation,and hybrid simulation are gradually emerging.While post-graduate education and competency receive more attention,SBME has shown its value in areas including education and training,clinical thinking,assessment,and evaluation,as well as improving medical quality and patients safety,especially in the management of emergency and critical care crisis resources.However,the progress of pediatric SBME has been slow despite attracting significant attention within the field of pediatric critical care.The establishment of pediatric critical care skills simulation,scenario simulation,in-situ simulation and other training methods can not only enable clinicians to achieve“standardized operation” and “team collaboration”,but also promote“system transformation”,greatly improving the medical quality of pediatric critical care while ensuring patients safety.

RESUMO
Abnormal origin of coronary artery is a rare clinical manifestation in cardiovascular disease,among which the abnormal origin of left circumflex artery accounts for 0.022%-0.024%of all coronary angiography patients.Cases of abnormal origin of the left circumflex artery combined with acute occlusion are even rarer.Timely and effective strategies and methods for finding abnormal openings during surgery are crucial for completing interventional treatment.This case reports a rare left circumflex artery anomaly originating from the absence of coronary sinus and acute occlusion of the left circumflex artery leading to myocardial infarction during coronary intervention treatment.The patient experienced sudden chest pain and was admitted to the hospital.The electrocardiogram showed elevated ST segments in the lower and posterior walls.The acute coronary angiography showed only the left main trunk,left anterior descending branch,and right coronary artery(thrombolysis in myocardial infarction blood flow grade Ⅲ),but no left circumflex branch No left circumflex branch was found in the left and right coronary sinuses.Non selective angiography was performed at the root of the ascending aorta,and an abnormal opening of the left circumflex branch was finally discovered in the non coronal sinus.This case discusses common sites of abnormal origin of the left circumflex branch,strategies,methods,and interventional treatments for finding abnormal openings.

RESUMO
TAM(tumor-associated macrophage)is a kind of immune cell in tumor microenvironment,which mainly exists in tumor matrix to mediate inflammatory reaction.Generally,TAM can be stimulated by different cytokines to polarize into M1 macrophage or M2 macrophage with different phenotypes.In the early stage of tumor,M1 macrophages in TAM exhibit pro-inflammatory and anti-tumor activities,while as tumor progresses,TAMs tend to polarize into M2 macrophages to play anti-inflammatory and tumor-promoting roles.A large number of studies have shown that TAM is closely related to tumor growth,invasion,metastasis and poor prognosis.Therefore,targeting TAM has become the focus of anti-tumor immunotherapy.This paper has summarized the origin of TAM,and introduced the specific roles of TAM in promoting tumor proliferation,angiogenesis,migration and invasion and the formation of immunosuppressive environment.At the same time,the research progress of TAM-targeted anti-tumor immu-notherapy in recent years was discussed from 3 aspects:inhibiting monocyte recruitment,promoting TAM apoptosis and reshaping TAM phenotype.
RESUMO
Objectives: To investigate the current application status and implementation difficulties of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in children with sudden cardiac arrest. Methods: This cross-sectional survey was conducted in 35 hospitals. A Children's ECPR Information Questionnaire on the implementation status of ECPR technology (abbreviated as the questionnaire) was designed, to collect the data of 385 children treated with ECPR in the 35 hospitals. The survey extracted the information about development of ECPR, the maintenance of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) machine, the indication of ECPR, and the difficulties of implementation in China. These ECPR patients were grouped based on their age, the hospital location and level, to compare the survival rates after weaning and discharge. The statistical analysis used Chi-square test and one-way analysis of variance for the comparison between the groups, LSD method for post hoc testing, and Bonferroni method for pairwise comparison. Results: Of the 385 ECPR cases, 224 were males and 161 females. There were 185 (48.1%) survival cases after weaning and 157 (40.8%) after discharge. There were 324 children (84.2%) receiving ECPR for cardiac disease and 27 children (7.0%) for respiratory failure. The primary cause of death in ECPR patients was circulatory failure (82 cases, 35.9%), followed by brain failure (80 cases, 35.0%). The most common place of ECPR was intensive care unit (ICU) (278 cases, 72.2%); ECPR catheters were mostly inserted through incision (327 cases, 84.9%). There were 32 hospitals (91.4%) had established ECMO emergency teams, holding 125 ECMO machines in total. ECMO machines mainly located in ICU (89 pieces, 71.2%), and the majority of hospitals (32 units, 91.4%) did not have pre-charged loops. There were no statistically significant differences in the post-withdrawal and post-discharge survival rates of ECPR patients among different age groups, regions, and hospitals (all P>0.05). The top 5 difficulties in implementing ECPR in non-ICU environments were lack of ECMO machines (16 times), difficulty in placing CPR pipes (15 times), long time intervals between CPR and ECMO transfer (13 times), lack of conventional backup ECMO loops (10 times), and inability of ECMO emergency teams to quickly arrive at the site (5 times). Conclusion: ECPR has been gradually developed in the field of pediatric critical care in China, and needs to be further standardized. ECPR in non-ICU environment remains a challenge.

RESUMO
Digestive tract diseases, especially digestive tract tumors, including liver cancer, pancreatic cancer, and colorectal cancer, have high incidence in China. Digestive tract tumor is one of the top 10 cancers in terms of the number of new cases and deaths in the world, and the incidence and mortality of tumor diseases have been increasing year by year. Therefore, the prevention and treatment of tumors is particularly important. With the application and promotion of traditional Chinese medicine in the medical field and the rapid development of molecular biology and pharmacology, more and more potential active components of Chinese medicinal materials have been extracted and studied. These active components can inhibit tumor cells in a multi-target and multi-pathway manner. Cinobufotalin is an effective component extracted from the skin of Bufo bufo gargarizans. It has been prepared into a variety of agents with anti-tumor, immunomodulatory, cardiac boosting, pain-easing, anti-inflammatory, and swelling-relieving activities. In clinical practice, cinobufotalin is mainly used to assist the treatment of liver cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, gastric cancer and other malignant tumors, which can reduce the adverse reactions of patients in the middle and late stages and improve the quality of life and five-year survival rate of patients. The available studies of molecular mechanism have demonstrated that cinobufotalin can play a therapeutic role by inducing cell apoptosis, regulating cell cycle, inhibiting cell proliferation and angiogenesis, modulating immune response, reversing multidrug resistance, enhancing radiochemotherapy sensitivity, inhibiting tumor inflammation, invasion, and metastasis, etc. This review focuses on the clinical application and mechanism of cinobufotalin against digestive tract tumors in recent years, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the anti-tumor research of cinobufotalin, promote the application of cinobufotalin in tumor treatment, and facilitate the further research and development of this compound.

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness, safety, and prognosis of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) for Siewert type II and III adenocarcinomas of the esophagogastric junction (AEG). Methods: This study is a prospective randomized controlled clinical study (NCT01962246). AEG patients who were treated at the Third Department of Surgery of the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from February 2012 to June 2016 were included. All of the enrolled patients were diagnosed with type II or III locally advanced AEG gastric cancer (T2-4N0-3M0 or T1N1-3M0) by gastroscopy and CT before operation; the longitudinal axis of the lesion was ≤ 8 cm; no anti-tumor treatment was previously given and no contraindications of chemotherapy and surgery were found. Case exclusion criteria: serious diseases accompanied by liver and kidney, cardiovascular system and other vital organs; allergy to capecitabine or oxaliplatin drugs or excipients; receiving any form of chemotherapy or other research drugs; pregnant or lactating women; patients with diseases resulting in difficulty to take capecitabine or with concurrent tumors. Based on sample size estimation, a total of 150 AEG patients were enrolled. Using the random number table method, the enrolled patients were divided into the nCRT group and the direct operation group with 75 cases in each group. The nCRT group received XELOX chemotherapy (capecitabine+ oxaliplatin) before surgery and concurrent radiotherapy (45 Gy, 25 times, 1.8 Gy/d, 5 times/week). Clinical efficacy of the nCRT group was evaluated by the solid tumor efficacy evaluation standard (RECIST1.1) and the tumor volume reduction rate was measured on CT. After completing the preoperative examination in the direct operation group, and 8-10 weeks after the end of nCRT in the nCRT group, surgery was performed. Laparoscopic exploration was initially performed. According to the Japanese "Regulations for the Treatment of Gastric Cancer", a transabdominal radical total gastrectomy combined with perigastric lymph node dissection was performed. The primary outcome was the 3-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival rate (DFS); the secondary outcomes were R0 resection rate, the toxicity of chemotherapy, and surgical complications. The follow-up ended on December 31, 2019. The postoperative recurrence, metastasis and survival time of the two groups were collected. Results: After excluding patients with incomplete clinical data, patients or family members requesting to withdraw informed consent, and those failing to follow the treatment plan, 63 cases in the nCRT group and 69 cases in the direct operation group were finally enrolled in the study. There were no statistically significant differences in baseline characteristics of the two groups (all P>0.05). Sixty-three patients in the nCRT group were evaluated by RECIST1.1 after treatment, the image based effective rate was 42.9% (27/63), and the stable disease rate was 98.4% (62/63); the tumor volume before and after nCRT measured on CT was (58.8±24.4) cm(3) and (46.6±25.7) cm(3), respectively, the effective rate of tumor volume reduction measured by CT was 47.6% (30/63). Incidences of neutrophilopenia [65.1% (41/63) vs. 40.6% (28/69), χ(2)=7.923, P=0.005], nausea [81.0% (51/63) vs. 56.5% (39/69), χ(2)=9.060, P=0.003] and fatigue [74.6% (47/63) vs. 42.0% (29/69), χ(2)=14.306, P=0.001] in the nCRT group were significantly higher than those in the direct surgery group. Radiation gastritis/esophagitis and radiation pneumonia were unique adverse reactions in the nCRT group, with incidences of 52.4% (33/63) and 15.9%(10/63), respectively. The classification of tumor regression of 63 patients in nCRT group presented as 11 cases of grade 0 (17.5%), 20 cases of grade 1 (31.7%), 28 cases of grade 2 (44.4%), and 5 cases of grade 3 (7.9%). Eleven (17.5%) patients achieved pathologic complete response. Sixty-one (96.8%) patients in the nCRT group underwent R0 resection, which was higher than 87.0% (60/69) in the direct surgery group (χ(2)=4.199, P=0.040). The mean number of harvested lymph nodes in the specimens in the nCRT group and the direct operation group was 27.6±12.4 and 26.8±14.6, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (t=-0.015, P=0.976). The pathological lymph node metastasis rate and lymph node ratio in the two groups were 44.4% (28/63) vs. 76.8% (53/69), and 4.0% (70/1 739) vs. 21.9% (404/1 847), respectively with statistically significant differences (χ(2)=14.552, P<0.001, and χ(2)=248.736, P<0.001, respectively). During a median follow-up of 52 (27-77) months, the 3-year DFS rate in the nCRT group and the direct surgery group was 52.4% and 39.1% (P=0.049), and the 3-year OS rate was 63.4% and 52.2% (P=0.019), respectively. According to whether the tumor volume reduction rate measured by CT was ≥ 12.5%, 63 patients in the nCRT group were divided into the effective group (n=30) and the ineffective group (n=33). The 3-year DFS rate of these two subgracps was 56.6% and 45.5%, respectively without significant difference (P=0.098). The 3-year OS rate was 73.3% and 51.5%,respectively with significant difference (P=0.038). The 3-year DFS rate of patients with the tumor regression grades 0, 1, 2 and 3 was 81.8%, 70.0%, 44.4%, and 20.0%, repectively (P=0.024); the 3-year OS rate was 81.8%, 75.0%, 48.1% and 40.0%, repectively (P=0.048). Conclusion: nCRT improves treatment efficacy of Siewert type II and III AEG patients, and the long-term prognosis is good.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of integrated pediatric training course of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)based on simulation teaching.Methods:The instructors of ECMO team of Children′s Hospital of Fudan University developed the teaching curriculum.Team members as a unit were recruited to study simulation-based courses, whose theoretical knowledge, skills and teamwork were assessed, and feedback from the trainees were gathered.Results:Since May 2018, 22 teams of pediatric specialized hospitals or general hospitals have taken part in our ECMO simulation, with totally 132 participants, including 45 ICU doctors(34.1%), 60 ICU nurses(45.5%), 23 thoracic surgeons(17.4%) and four anesthesiologists(3.0%). Twelve of them(9.1%)had a little ECMO experience.After training, the trainees had a high evaluation on each part of the course, with average score more than four, of which the theoretical score was lowest.Their self-evaluation on the theory, skills, teamwork and confidence in the implementation of ECMO had been significantly improved.Most(80.3%)of the trainees were confident to carry out ECMO in their local hospitals.The trainees′ baseline score of theoretical knowledge was 55.2±7.6, and increased to 67.1±7.3 after training( P<0.001). The average teamwork score of the 22 teams was 70.2±8.2, and the qualified rate was up to 86.4%.The most prominent skill problems in operation assessment were no albumin and blood priming(90.9%), non-skill problems were extremely anxious during the overall assessment(84.8%)of the participants, poor team work(74.2%), poor leadership(68.2%). For the feedback of the whole course, 97.0% and 94.7% of the trainees thought that integrated training and simulation teaching were the highlights of the course.At present, 13(59.1%)units have successfully developed ECMO technology after the course, and the number of children treated has been up to 83, with a survival rate of discharge of 54.2%.However, it was found that the skill level of some participants decreased about 2 weeks after the course. Conclusion:As a new attempt of ECMO teaching, this curriculum has achieved certain efficiency in both teaching and clinical practice.At the same time, our study also plays a role in promoting the development of ECMO in pediatrics.
RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the pathological features of a heart failure with preserved ejection fraction(HFpEF) model, which is established by spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) through high-fat diet and diabetic factors.Methods:Twenty specific pathogen-free grade(SPF grade) and 14-week-old SHR rats were randomly divided into SHR group (normal diet) and HFpEF group [high-fat diet combined with intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ, 25 mg/kg) were used to create a diabetic complex model] with 10 rats in each group. Ten SPF and 14-week-old WKY rats with the same genetic background were set as blank control group (WKY group). All rats were fed for 8 weeks. Echocardiography was performed to measure cardiac parameters: peak velocity of early diastolic mitral inflow(E), peak velocity of late diastolic mitral inflow(A), and the early diastolic mitral annulus e′ in the same cardiac cycle, left atrial ejection fraction (LAEF), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left atrial diameter, right atrial diameter and interventricular septal thickness(IVST). Serological testing included glucose (GLU) and glycosylated serum protein (GSP); Enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) testing included insulin (INS), glucagon (PG), C-peptide (CP), leptin (LEP), atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and B-type brain natriuretic peptide (BNP). The rat heart tissue was stained with HE, and the morphological changes of atrial/ventricular tissue were observed under an optical microscope.Results:The pathological characteristics of HFpEF was established in SHR rats fed with high fat and diabetes. Echocardiography showed that compared with the WKY group, the values of E, E/A and E/e′ in the HFpEF group were significantly increased (all P<0.01), and e′and LAEF were significantly reduced (all P<0.01). In the HFpEF group, the anteroposterior and tranverse dimensions of the left atrium and the long-axis dimension of the right atrium increased to varying degrees (all P<0.05), and the IVST was also significantly increased ( P<0.01). At the same time, atrial wall was thickened obviously, myocardial cells were disordered, and myocardial fibers were broken. Compared with the WKY group, the levels of serum markers ANP and BNP in HFpEF group were significantly increased (all P<0.01), and the levels of serum insulin-related indicators INS, PG, CP, LEP, GSP, and GLU increased to varying degrees (all P<0.01). Conclusions:The composite model established by SHR rats through high-fat diet and diabetic factors can simulate the Doppler echocardiographic changes and pathological features of HFpEF, as well as abnormal changes in serum related markers and insulin indicators.
RESUMO
Objective:To explore the effect of different teaching modes in medical students′education of cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR)skills.Methods:One hundred and fifty college students were randomly allocated to classroom teaching group(G1=50), problem-based learning(PBL)group(G2=50) and computer-based teaching group(G3=50)from March to December in 2019.The students′acquisition and retention of theoretical knowledge and skills were assessed before(baseline)and after the teaching(immediately), then 2 months and 6 months later.Results:One hundred and fifty college students participated in the study.Among them, 84(56.0%)were male, with an average age of 23 years old.Sixteen students(10.7%)had participated in similar CPR training.There was no significant statistical difference in the demographic characteristics of students among three groups.At four time points including baseline, after teaching(immediately), 2 months and 6 months later, there was no significant difference in the theoretical examination results among three groups( P>0.05). But after teaching, the scores of each group were improved.At the second time point(after teaching immediately), each group had the highest scores( P<0.05). Compared the scores of the second point, the ones of the third time point(2 months later after teaching)and the fourth time point(6 months later after teaching)decreased, but there was no significant difference between the two time points( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the pass rates of skill exam at the time point of baseline among three groups( P>0.05). The pass rates of G2 and G3 were significantly higher than those of G1 at 2 and 6 months later after teaching( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between two groups.After teaching, the passing rate of each group was significantly higher than that of the baseline, and there were significant differences in the passing rates of any other time points after teaching, with the passing rate decreasing.Students′ feedback showed that all of them could clearly understand the teaching objective and accept the difficulty of the course, and PBL and computer teaching modes were more acceptable. Conclusion:PBL and computer-based teaching modes have better learning effectiveness and acceptance, which can be used as supplemental training to conventional classroom teaching or as strategies to consolidate learning.Two months may be the time point for retraining.
RESUMO
Objective:To explore the value of body temperature, pediatric clinical illness score(PCIS), white blood cell count (WBC), plasma C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT) and pro-adrenomedullin (pro-ADM) in predicting nosocomial infection in PICU.Methods:From June 2016 to March 2017, the critically ill children in PICU of Children′s Hospital of Fudan University were selected and divided into nosocomial infection group and non nosocomial infection group according to the diagnostic criteria of nosocomial infection.The body temperature, PCIS, WBC, CRP, PCT and pro-ADM were recorded at 4 hours (T1), (48±1) hours (T2), (120±1) hours (T3) and (192±1) hours (T4) after admission, and their predictive value of each index, which was the closest time point (Th) to nosocomial infection was analyzed.Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves were performed to calculate the areas under the curves (AUC), sensitivity and specificity, and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to study the risk factors of nosocomial infection.Results:A total of 85 cases were included, including 27 cases in nosocomial infection group and 58 cases in non nosocomial infection group.There was no significant difference in age, weight, body temperature, WBC, PCT, pro-ADM, primary disease and invasive operation between two groups (all P>0.05). There were significant differences in gender, PCIS, CRP, intubation rate and central venous catheterization rate ( P<0.05), when patients were admitted to PICU.At Th, the differences of body temperature, PCIS, CRP, PCT and pro-ADM between two groups were statistically significant ( P<0.05), as well as the AUC were 0.787, 0.755, 0.709, 0.704 and 0.809, respectively, as well as the best cut-off values for predicting nosocomial infection were 38.0 ℃, 87 points, 14.5 mg/L, 0.28 ng/mL and 0.67 nmol/L, respectively.There was no significant difference regarding WBC between two groups ( P>0.05). PCIS may be an independent risk factor for nosocomial infection( OR=0.978, 95% CI 95.9-99.9, P<0.05). Conclusion:Pro-ADM has high sensitivity and specificity in predicting nosocomial infection, and PCIS is an independent risk factor for nosocomial infection.

RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the feasibility and accuracy using digital surgical guide to position the jaws in bimaxillary orthognathic surgery.@*Methods@#16 patients with dento-maxillofacial deformity were included from January to December 2018 in Nanjing Stomatological Hospital. There were 10 males and 6 females, all of which were skeletal Ⅲ deformity. The mean age was 21.3 years old (16 to 28 years). They were divided into digital guide (group A) and traditional model surgery (group B) according to the treatment sequence. All patients underwent both Lefort Ⅰ osteotomy and bilateral ascending sagittal split. Virtual surgery was performed and digital three-dimensional surgical template was printed before surgery in group A. During the operation, digital surgical templates were used to position maxilla and mandible. The accuracy was evaluated by generating color distribution map of deviation grade, which was imaging fusion of virtual surgical jaw position and actual surgical jaw position to measure the deviation distance of each marker point one week after surgery. The deviations between the preoperative design and the actual operation were compared with the t-test respectively in group A and group B, and the independent sample t test was chosen to compared the accuracy of reduction between the two groups in sagittal, horizontal, and vertical directions.@*Results@#All 16 patients had primary healing. The maximum deviation of the patients in group A was at U6. The deviation direction was vertical, and the deviation distance was (1.67±0.32) mm. In group A, the deviation distances of all marker points in the sagittal, horizontal and vertical directions were (0.55±0.26) mm (t=2.985, P=0.205), (0.62±0.20) mm (t=2.672, P=0.193) and (1.07±0.62) mm (t=5.122, P=0.823), respectively. The result in group B was (0.63±0.28) mm(t=3.397, P=0.307), (0.71±0.42) mm (t=4.438, P=0.541) and (1.82±0.36) mm (t=1.115, P=0.021) in these directions. There was no significant difference between two groups in the sagittal (t=4.704, P=0.763) and lateral (t=4.008, P=0.615) directions, and the difference in the vertical (t=1.432, P=0.037) direction was statistically significant.@*Conclusions@#The digital guides were feasible to position jaws accurately in orthognathic surgery.

This study aimed to investigate the CPR ventilation strategies currently being used among physicians in Chinese tertiary hospitals.@*METHODS@# A survey was conducted among the cardiac arrest team physicians of 500 tertiary hospitals in China in August, 2018. Surveyed data included physician and hospital information, and preferred ventilation strategy during CPR.@*RESULTS@# A total of 438 (88%) hospitals completed the survey, including hospitals from all 31 Chinese mainland provinces. About 41.1% of respondents chose delayed or no ventilation during CPR, with delayed ventilations all starting within 12 minutes. Of all the respondents who provided ventilation, 83.0% chose to strictly follow the 30:2 strategy, while 17.0% chose ventilations concurrently with uninterrupted compressions. Only 38.3% respondents chose to intubate after initiating CPR, while 61.7% chose to intubate immediately when resuscitation began. During bag- valve-mask ventilation, only 51.4% of respondents delivered a frequency of 10 breaths per minute. In terms of ventilator settings, the majority of respondents chose volume control (VC) mode (75.2%), tidal volume of 6–7 mL/kg (72.1%), PEEP of 0–5 cmH2O (69.9%), and an FiO2 of 100% (66.9%). However, 62.0% of respondents had mistriggers after setting the ventilator, and 51.8% had high pressure alarms.@*CONCLUSION@#There is a great amount of variability in CPR ventilation strategies among cardiac arrest team physicians in Chinese tertiary hospitals. Guidelines are needed with specific recommendations on ventilation during CPR.
RESUMO
The aim of this study is to analyze the compositions of main bile acids in fermented and mixed processing products of arisame cum bile from pig bile, and to establish a method for content determination of bile acids in fermented Arisaema Cum Bile. Fermented and mixed processing products were prepared from arisaematis rhizome and arisaematis rhizoma preparatum with pig bile respectively. Then the differences in bile acids compositions between such two kinds of products were compared by high performance liquid chromatography and evaporative light-scattering detector (HPLC-ELSD). With three kinds of free bile acid compositions as the indicators, HPLC-ELSD method was adopted to determine the content of bile acid compositions in fermented product,on Agilent Eclipse XDB C₁₈(4.6 mm×250 mm, 5 μm) chromatographic column, with acetonitrile and 0.1% glacial acetic acid solution (55:45) as mobile phase, at a flow rate of 1 mL·min⁻¹, column temperature of 30 °C, drift tube temperature of 90 °C, and a nitrogen flow rate of 2.2 mL·min⁻¹. The results showed that the bile acids in fermented bile Arisaema were mainly in a free form, while in mixed processing product, the compositions were mainly in a conjugated form. Three kinds of free bile acids, namely porcine cholic acid (HCA), porcine deoxycholic acid (HDCA) and chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) in fermented product, showed a good linear relationship in the range of quantification. The average recovery rate was 95.99%-104.3%, complying with the requirements. The results showed that the conjugated bile acids could be transformed into free bile acids during the fermentation of arisaema cum bile. This established method can effectively control the content of bile acids compositions in fermenting arisaema cum bile.
