The vapor–liquid equilibrium(VLE)data of a-pinene+camphene+[abietic acid+palustric acid+neoabietic acid]and a-pinene+longifolene+[abietic acid+palustric acid+neoabietic acid]systems at 313.15 K,333.15 K and 358.15 K ...The vapor–liquid equilibrium(VLE)data of a-pinene+camphene+[abietic acid+palustric acid+neoabietic acid]and a-pinene+longifolene+[abietic acid+palustric acid+neoabietic acid]systems at 313.15 K,333.15 K and 358.15 K were measured by headspace gas chromatography(HSGC).These data was compared with the predictions value by conductor-like screening model for realistic solvation(COSMO-RS).Moreover,the calculated data of COSMO-RS and Non-Random Two-Liquids(NRTL)models showed good agreement with the experimental data.It was found that the three resin acids inhibited the volatility of a-pinene,camphene and longifolene and resulted in the decrease of total pressure.Moreover,HE(HB)contributes the most to the excess enthalpy and the hydrogen bonding interaction is the dominant intermolecular force of a-pinene,camphene and longifolene with the three resin acids.In addition,the geometric structures optimization and binding energy were obtained by the DFT to further illustrate the hydrogen bonding interaction and the effects of the addition of the three resin acids on the isothermal VLE.展开更多

Considering higher sensitivity of germinoma to anti-tumor therapy, we explored emergency irradiation as non-invasive measure in this situation. Methods: Data of 35 germinoma patients with symptomatic hydrocephalus who received emergency irradiation of 3. 4 Gy/2f were studied retrospectively. The maximum width of frontal horn and the minimum width of trunk of corpus cal osum (TCC) were measured to evaluate hydrocephalus changing. Besides, mean deviation (MD) of Humphrey perimetry was employed to evaluate visual field defect. Correlations between hydrocephalus changing and clinical factors, including age, percentage of tumor regression, radiographic re-evaluation interval, and serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG) level, were analyzed. Results: The median maximum diameter and volume of pineal lesions was 27 mm (range 10–55 mm) and 6.5cm3 (range 0.4–74.1 cm3), respectively. At median 8 days after irradiation, the median percentage of tumor remission was 55% (range 10–100%). The median maximum width of FN and the median minimum width of TCC were 11.6 mm and 39.0 mm, and 8.0 mm and 31.4 mm, before and after irradiation, respectively. The improvement of both parameters reached significant level (p < 0.001). However, none clinical factor was found to have correlation with their improvement. In 14 patients with paired data of pre- and post-irradiation MD, its change did not reach the significant level for both eyes. Al patients successful y received subsequent chemoradiotherapy without surgical intervention. Conclusions: Emergency irradiation of 3.4 Gy/2f was an effective non-invasive measure to relief hydrocephalus in pineal germinoma patients.展开更多
