RESUMEN

Sludge biochar(BC), which was prepared by the pyrolysis of waste-activated sludge at 450℃, was applied for peroxymonosulfate(PMS) activation to construct a BC/PMS system for ciprofloxacin(CIP) degradation. The physical and chemical properties of BC were studied using scanning electron microscopy(SEM), an energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS), a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer(FTIR), X-ray diffraction(XRD), a Zeta potential analyzer, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy(EPR). The effects of BC dosage, PMS dosage, initial pH value, and inorganic anions on CIP removal in the BC/PMS system were investigated. Further, the degradation mechanism of the BC/PMS system was speculated through the free radical quenching experiment and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) analysis. The results showed that the CIP degradation rate was 49.09% at a BC dosage of 1.0 g·L-1, PMS of 3.0 mmol·L-1, CIP of 20 mg·L-1, and pH of 6.0 in 120 min. SO42- and NO3- had no obvious effect on the removal of CIP in the BC/PMS system, whereas HCO3- and Cl-could inhibit CIP degradation significantly. The CIP removal in the BC/PMS system was attributed to the common function of the radical pathway dominated by ·OH and SO4-· and the non-radical pathway dominated by 1O2. The CIP degradation pathway mainly included piperazine ring opening and hydroxylation reaction.

RESUMEN

Abstract@#Social withdrawal is a kind of behavioral inhibition in social situations, which may increase the risk for maladjustment, internalizing and externalizing problems, interfering with psychological development and healthy growth. With the deepening understanding in sociology of development, child social withdrawal has gradually received extensive attention from scholars across the world. Understanding the phenomenon of child social withdrawal is important for in depth follow up research. Based on the literature review, the paper aims to summarize the types, mechanisms and influencing factors of social withdrawal in children, in order to provide scientific basis for formulating prevention strategies and early intervention programs in the future.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To assess the clinical value of ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted Mammotome (MMT) system for surgical resection of benign breast disease. METHODS: This retrospective study was conducted among 1267 patients who underwent minimally invasive surgery with ultrasound-guided MMT system for benign breast disease at our center between January, 2009 and January, 2014. The resection rate, incidence of complication, recurrence rate, patients' satisfaction, clinical follow-up results and risk factors were analyzed. The patients were followed up at 1 month, 6 months and every 6 months thereafter for up to 2 years with a median follow-up of 22 months. RESULTS: Of the total of 1267 patients, 1259 (99.36%) had complete resection of the breast lesions, and residual lesions were found in 8 cases 1 month after the operation. The resection rate was significantly associated with lesion size (P=0.003) but not with the patients'age, pathology, BI-RADS classification, or the number or location of the lesions (P>0.05). Eighty-nine (7.02%) patients showed postoperative complications, and hematoma occurred in 70 (5.52%) patients after the operation. The complication rate was significantly associated with the number and location of lesions (P=0.000) but not with age, pathology, BI-RADS classification or the lesion size (P>0.05). A total of 193 (15.23%) patients had recurrence after the operation, including 65 (5.13%) with in situ recurrence and 128 (10.1%) with new lesions. The recurrence rate was significantly associated with the number and size of lesions (P=0.000) but not with age, pathology, BI-RADS classification or location of lesions(P>0.05). Six patients were not satisfied with the appearance of the incision, and the overall satisfaction rate of the patients was 99.52%. CONCLUSION: s Ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted MMT excision is a safe and effective procedure for benign breast disease with a low surgical complication rate, a high resection rate and a low recurrence rate. This technique results in good postoperative appearance for treatment of benign and high-risk breast lesions, especially multiple benign breast lesions.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Dahuang Huanglian Xiexin Decoction (DHXD) is a classical formula in traditional Chinese medicines. In this study, a novel UPLC-MS/MS method was developed for the simultaneous quantification of rhein, emodin, berberine and baicalin, the major bioactive compounds of DHXD in rat plasma. RESULTS: The method possessed high sensitivity and ultrashort analysis time (7 min). Linearity, accuracy, precision and extraction recovery of four analytes were all satisfactory. The method was then successfully applied in a pharmacokinetic study of four bioactive components after a single oral administration of DHXD extract to rats. CONCLUSION: The method was applicable for simultaneous bioanalysis of rhein, emodin, berberine and baicalin.
