Development of a UPLC-MS/MS method for the determination of active ingredients of Shuang Hu in rat blood and its application in pharmacokinetics.

A simple and sensitive method using in vivo microdialysis coupled with UPLC-MS/MS was established to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of Shuang Hu tincture (SHZTN). Xevo TQ-S was used to analyze the active ingredients of mesaconitine, hypaconitine, 4-hydroxycinnamic acid, ferulic acid and N-(2, 3-dimethyl phenyl)-2- aminobenzoic acid of SHZTN. Samples were prepared using a methanol precipitation method and the internal standards lannaconitine and p-hydroxybenzoic acid were added.

Impact of Helicobacter pylori eradication on the gastric microbiome.

Background: Helicobacter pylori (Hp) eradication has been used for many years. Yet, the impact of this eradication on the normal gastric microflora is not well understood. In this study, we explored the effect of eradication on the stomach microbial community and its recovery after successful Hp eradication.

Clinically significant endoscopic findings in patients of dyspepsia with no warning symptoms: A cross-sectional study.

Background: Dyspepsia is one of the commonest clinical disorder. However, controversy remains over the role of endoscopy in patients with dyspepsia. No studies have evaluated the diagnostic value of endoscopy in patients with no warning symptoms according to the Rome IV criteria.

Efficacy of short-term moderate or high-dose statin therapy for the prevention of contrast-induced nephropathy in high-risk patients with chronic kidney disease: systematic review and meta-analysis.

Although previous studies have indicated that statin therapy can effectively prevent the development of CIN, this observation remains controversial, especially in high-risk patients. A meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the efficacy of statin pretreatment for preventing the development of CIN in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and to determine its effectiveness in various subgroups. We searched the online databases PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library.

Emerging relationship between RNA helicases and autophagy.

RNA helicases, the largest family of proteins that participate in RNA metabolism, stabilize the intracellular environment through various processes, such as translation and pre-RNA splicing. These proteins are also involved in some diseases, such as cancers and viral diseases. Autophagy, a self-digestive and cytoprotective trafficking process in which superfluous organelles and cellular garbage are degraded to stabilize the internal environment or maintain basic cellular survival, is associated with human diseases.

[Risk Factors of Acute Kidney Injury Complicating Adult Primary Nephrotic Syndrome].

To explore the risk factors of acute kidney injury(AKI)in adult primary nephrotic syndrome(PNS). Totally 185 patients with PNS were divided into AKI group(=51)and non-AKI group(=134).The demographic data and clinical and histological features at admission were compared between the two groups.

Factors and Outcome of Renal Osteodystrophy-Associated Initial Fragility Fracture in End-Stage Renal Disease Patients.

Background: Renal osteodystrophy has caused increased risk of fragility fracture in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. However, risk factors and outcome of ESRD patients with fragility fracture remain uncharacterized. We aimed to assess these parameters in ESRD patients.

[A new triterpenic acid from the roots of Rosa laevigata].

This study was designed to investigate triterpenoids from the roots of Rosa laevigata Michx. The silica gel column chromatography was used to separate the chemical constituents from the roots of Rosa laevigata Michx. HPLC was used to analyze its purity and chemical constitution.

[Triterpenoids from roots of Rosa laevigata].

To study the triterpenoids from the roots of Rosa laevigata. The silica gel column chromatography was used to separate the chemical constituents from the roots of Rosa laevigata Michx. HPLC was used to analyze its purity, chemical and spectroscopy methods were used to determine their structures.

[Triterpene constituents from Rosa cymosa Tratt].

The constituents in 95% ethanol extract of the root of Rosa cymosa Tratt were purified by column chromatography techniques, leading to isolation of eleven triterpenes. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic data as pomolic acid (1), fupenzic acid (2), ursolic acid (3), euscaphic acid (4), arjunic acid (5), tomentic acid (6), 3β-E-feruloyl corosolic acid (7), 1β-hydroxyeuscaphic acid (8), myrianthic acid (9), cecropiacic acid (10), and ilexoside B (11). Among them, compounds 3, 6-8, 10 and 11 were obtained from this plant for the first time, and compounds 7 and 10 were obtained from this genus for the first time.
