Identification of chemical components of Longmu Qingxin Mixture by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS and research on its material basis for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder / 中成药

AIM To identify the chemical components of Longmu Qingxin Mixture by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS and study its material basis for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.METHODS The sample was detected by mass spectrometry in positive and negative ion mode on a Waters CORTECS? UPLC? T3 chromatographic column.The data were analyzed with Peakview 1.2 software and matched with the Natural Products HR-MS/MS Spectral Library 1.0 database,and the components were identified in combination with literature reports.The material basis of Longmu Qingxin Mixture for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder was analysed according to the identified components.RESULTS Forty chemical components were identified,including 11 flavonoids,6 monoterpene glycosides,4 triterpene saponins,3 phenolic acids,6 alkaloids etc.,which mainly derived from Radix Astragali,Radix Paeoniae Alba,Radix Scutellariae,licorice root,Ramulus Uncariae cum,etc.,baicalein,formononetin,astragaloside Ⅳ and rhynchophylline may be the material basis for the therapeutic effect of Longmu Qingxin Mixture.CONCLUSION UPLC-Q-TOF-MS can quickly identify the chemical components of Longmu Qingxin Mixture.Flavonoids,triterpene saponins and alkaloids may be the material basis for Longmu Qingxin Mixture for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder,which can provide the basis for its material basis research,quality standard establishment and pharmacological study of the dismantled formula.

Clinicopathological characteristics and surgical treatment of duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumor / 中华胃肠外科杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and surgical treatment of duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Clinicopathological data of 25 cases with duodenal GIST from January 2007 to July 2011 in West China hospital were retrospectively analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the patients were identified by pathological examination without specific symptoms. Tumors were located in the bulb area in 2 cases, descending portion in 11 cases, transverse portion in 8 cases, and ascending portion in 4 cases. Two cases were at very low risk, 7 at low risk, 6 at intermediate risk, and 10 at high risk. All the patients received surgical resection, including 11 pancreaticoduodenectomies, 10 local tumor resections, 2 duodenal segmental resections, and 2 distal subtotal gastrectomies. Eighteen patients were followed up from 16 to 39 months and 3 patients recurred 18, 30, and 35 months after operation respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Duodenal GIST exhibits no distinct clinical characteristics. Complete removal of the tumor is the main choice of treatment.</p>
