Ferulic acid in extracts of raw herbs was separated by capillary zone electrophoresis in the buffer solution of 10 mmol/L Na(2)B(4)O(7). The simple and rapid method was linear, ranging from 5 to 100 microg/mL, and had a good reproducibility with the RSD below 2%. The contents of ferulic acid in Angelica sinensis and Chuanxiong could be easily determined within 15 min with no pretreatment and no interference.
Tetrahydropalmatine in Rhizoma corydalis and its preparations were separated and determined with no pretreatment in the buffer solution of 50 mmol/L of sodium acetate in methanol containing 2 mol/L acetic acid.
Objective
To investigate demographic factors implicated in the functional maturation of autologous arteriovenous fistula in a population of patients with end-stage renal disease.
Methods
The data of 335 consecutive patients with end-stage renal disease who were performed autologous arteriovenous fistula from January 2010 to December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. The parameters affecting autologous arteriovenous fistula functional maturation were screened.
Results
Overall arteriovenous fistula functional maturation rate was 78.14% (218/279). The arteriovenous fistula functional maturation rate was 68.33%(82/120) in diabetes and 85.54%(136/159) in non-diabetes, and there was significant difference (χ2=11.844, P<0.01). The arteriovenous fistula functional maturation rate was 62.26%(33/53) in hypoproteinemia and 81.86%(185/226) in non-hypoproteinemia, and there was significant difference (χ2=9.648, P<0.01). Diabetes and hypoproteinemia were the risk factors to promote functional maturation (OR=6.003, 8.476). The arteriovenous fistula functional maturation rate was 87.10%(81/93) in calcium channel blockers using and 73.66%(137/186) in non-calcium channel blockers using, and there was significant difference (χ2=6.556, P<0.05). Calcium channel blockers was the protective factor for promoting functional maturation (OR=0.086).
Conclusions
Diabetes and hypoproteinemia are found to be associated with functional non-maturation, while calcium channel-blocker agents are associated with better functional maturation.

A capillary zone electrophoresis method was set up for the separation and determination of glycyrrhizin in Chinese medicinal preparations. Concentrations of Na(2)B(4)O(7) were optimized, which showed that glycyrrhizin in the sample could be separated from interference in the running buffer of 30 mmol/L Na(2)B(4)O(7). Using declofenac as internal standard, the simple method was linear in the range 25-300 microg/mL of glycyrrhizin, and good reproducibility was obtained. The extracts of Radix glycyrrhizae and its preparations could be injected directly for analysis without any pretreatment.
A micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatographic method was set up for the quality control of rhubarb and its preparations. Anthraquinone derivatives were separated successfully within 10 min in the buffer solution of 50 mmol/L H3BO3-NaOH (pH 11) containing 25 mmol/L sodium deoxycholate. The established method, with a recovery of extraction of over 90%, has good linear relationship and reproducibility. The contents of anthraquinone derivatives in rhubarb and a tablet of Niu-huang-jie-du differed significantly, showing that the quality control of rhubarb and its preparations is necessary.
