Detection of trace components in Xiangdan injection of Dalbergia odorifera based on microextraction and back-extraction along with bar-form-diagram strategy.

Xiangdan Injection are commonly used traditional Chinese medicine formulations for the clinical treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, the trace components of Dalbergia odorifera in Xiangdan Injection pose a challenge for evaluating its quality due to the difficulty of detection. This study proposes a technology combining dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction and back-extraction (DLLME-BE) along with Bar-Form-Diagram (BFD) to address this issue. The proposed combination method involves vortex-mixing tetradecane, which has a lower density than water, with the sample solution to facilitate the transfer of the target components. Subsequently, a new vortex-assisted liquid-liquid extraction step is performed to enrich the components of Dalbergia odorifera in acetonitrile. The sample analysis was performed on HPLC-DAD, and a clear overview of the chemical composition was obtained by integrating spectral and chromatographic information using BFD. The combination of BFD and CRITIC-TOPSIS strategies was used to optimize the process parameters of DLLME-BE. The determined optimal sample pre-treatment process parameters were as follows: 200 µL extraction solvent, 60 s extraction time, 50 µL back-extraction solvent, and 90 s back-extraction time. Based on the above strategy, a total of 29 trace components, including trans-nerolidol, were detected in the Xiangdan Injection. This combination technology provides valuable guidance for the enrichment analysis of trace components in traditional Chinese medicines.

[Effectiveness of preoperative autologous plateletpheresis combined with intraoperative autotransfusion on the blood coagulation in orthopaedic patients].

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of preoperative plateletpheresis combined with intraoperative autotransfusion on the blood coagulation of orthopaedic patients. METHODS: Sixty patients (ASA I-II) undergoing selective orthopaedic surgery were randomized into three groups (n = 20), that is, preoperative plateletpheresis combined with intraoperative autotransfusion for group I, intraoperative autotransfusion for group II, and group III without any managements of blood conservation. Coagulation parameters (prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time, fibrinogen), hemoglobin and hematocrit values, platelet counts and aggregability were evaluated before the anaesthesia, 10 minutes after plateletpheresis, 10 minutes before the infusion of platelet rich plasma or autologous blood, 10 minutes after infusion, 24 and 48 hours postoperation. Intra- and postoperation blood loss and homologous blood transfusion requirements were also recorded. RESULTS: Among three groups, there were no differences in intraoperative blood loss, perioperative haemoglobin level (Hb and Hct). As compared with group I, significant lower level of platelet counts and aggregability were observed in group II and III at the time of 24 and 48 hours after operation (P < 0.05), while postoperation blood loss and homologous blood-transfusion requirements increased at the same period (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative plateletpheresis combined with intraoperative autotransfusion can ameliorate the blood coagulation in orthopaedic patients, and it is an effective way to decrease blood loss and homologous blood-transfusions requirements.
