同步荧光结合神经网络同时测定3种抗生素

为了更快速、简便、准确地同时测定多种抗生素混合物,采用同步荧光光谱结合径向基神经网络的方法,对3种氟喹诺酮类抗生素（乳酸环丙沙星、乳酸左氧氟沙星、盐酸左氧氟沙星）的同步荧光光谱进行研究。选择3组分浓度均为1.67ng/mL的混合溶液,测量其3维同步荧光光谱;分别测量39种不同浓度的混合溶液样本的同步荧光光谱;选取其中35种作为训练组,其余4种作为预测组,将训练组样本对应的光谱数据作为输入,建立和训练径向基神经网络;在发射波长与激发波长的差Δλ=194nm条件下,利用训练好的神经网络对预测组中各组分的浓度进行预测,得到3种组分浓度预测的平均相对误差分别达到3.59%,3.47%,3.09%。结果表明,当Δλ设定为194nm时,3种抗生素的同步荧光峰差异最为明显、区分度高,该方法能实现对3种抗生素混合物中各组分的同时测定。这为多种抗生素混合物同时测定提供了一种快速、简便、准确的方法。

Cardiovascular and subjective effects of intravenous cocaine administration in humans

Nine volunteer subjects were tested with intravenously administered cocaine hydrochloride in doses ranging from 4 to 32 mg, as well as 10 mg of dextroamphetamine sulfate. Measures of cardiovascular and subjective effects were made. Generally parallel dose-effect functions were obtained for heart rate, blood pressure, Addiction Research Center Inventory scores, Profile of Mood Scales, and subject ratings. A substantial effect on each of these variables was recorded after 8 mg of cocaine. The increase continued and peaked at approximately 16 mg after which it usually leveled off. Ten milligrams of dextroamphetamine generally had an effect comparable to 8 to 16 mg of cocaine.     

Method of choice for urinary diversion in surgical treatment of bladder carcinoma

Spirometric, gasometric and electrocardiogarphic studies were carried out in 17 patients at rest, who were treated surgically for extreme obesity (overweight from 52 to 175 per cent in relation to the normal weight). The measurements were made before operation. It was found that the mean spirometric values were within the range of acceptable deviations from the normal value. The residual volume showed a tendency towards decreasing, especially in young patients. The values of dynamic parameters indicated a tendency towards ventilatory changes of a restrictive type in both groups. Minute ventilation at rest increased proportionally to obesity. Decreased values of respiratory equivalent indicated a good economy of respiration in obese persons when at rest. The mean gasometric values in capillary blood at rest were also within the acceptable range of abnormalities. Electrocardiographic tracings taken at rest showed considerable changes in the group of more obese persons.     

Cell proliferation in the prostate complex of the castrate mouse

Cell proliferation during 100 h of continuous androgen challenge was studied in the seminal vesicle and coagulating gland of Balb/c mice castrated 3 days or 14 days prior to the first daily injection of 250 mug testosterone propionate. Continuous labelling with [3H] thymidine indicated that the seminal vesicle was almost totally responsive to androgen, as early as 3 days after castration, whereas the androgen sensitivity of the coagulating gland increased from 30% at 3 days after castration to 85% at 14 days after castration. In both tissues the magnitude of the proliferative reaction could be related to the extent of cell loss prior to stimulation. The duration of the pre-replicative phase in the response of the seminal vesicle to androgen was 20-25 h both at 3 and 14 days after castration. In the coagulating gland the pre-replicative phase was 40 h at 3 days after castration and 20 h at 14 days after castration. The maximum uptake of [7alpha-3H] testosterone administered to mice 3 days after castration was significantly greater (P less than 0-01) in the seminal vesicle compared to the coagulating gland. At 14 days the seminal vesicle and coagulating gland exhibited a similar capacity for uptake. The in vivo metabolism of [7alpha-3H] testosterone was studied by thin layer chromatography 30 min and 120 min after administration. A high proportion of the radioactivity extracted from all the tissues was associated with highly polar steroids. At 3 days after castration, the seminal vesicle, 2 h after administration of radioactive testosterone, retained a much higher proportion of radioactivity associated with dihydrotestosterone than did the coagulating gland. The localization of steroid in mice 3 days after castration was studied by dry-mount autoradiography at intervals up to 2 h after the injection of [1,2,6,7(n)-3H]-testosterone. A heavier deposition of silver grains was observed over autoradiographs of the seminal vesicle. In the seminal vesicle the grains were primarily located over nuclear areas whereas in the coagulating gland the grains were diffusely distributed over both nuclear areas and over cytoplasmic areas.     

Non-olfactorial discrimination between foods by the dog

Simple coagulation studies were carried out in 18 patients with advanced Trypanosoma gambiense infection. No evidence of disseminated intravascular coagulation was found. Many patients had a moderate degree of thrombocytopenia which may have been due to enhanced splenic trapping of platelets. Most patients had raised levels of fibrin degradation products in their cerebrospinal fluid, perhaps reflecting the presence of underlying cerebral and meningeal vascular damage. Addition of viable trypanosomes or of trypanosome extracts to human and rat blood did not produce significant thrombocytopenia in vitro.     

Neural basis for the genesis and control of digitalis arrhythmias

The author discussed the increase in the frequency of traumatic paralyses of the ocular muscles, and reported 6 cases of inferior oblique muscle paresis caused by local blunt or sharp traumas (haematoma, contusion, rupture, incarceration) and one case of traumatic Brownian pseudo-paralysis. The localisation of the injuries in 3 cases was on the inferior temporal part and in the other 3 cases on the superior part of the bulbar conjunctiva. Atypical horizontal deviation and characteristic vertical deviation, torsion and torticollis were observed in the majority of cases. One patient recovered spontaneously. 3 patients became asymptomatic after correction by prisms and one after recession of contralateral superior rectus muscle. The symptoms remained unchanged in the case of a "blow out" fracture (in spite of operation) and a Brown's syndrome (without treatment).
