Dissolution studies cannot distinguish phenomena occurring inside the dosage forms when studying formulation with similar
dissolution profiles—such formulations can behave differently when considering their physical changes. The application of
flow-through dissolution apparatus integrated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system for discriminative evaluation of
controlled release dosage forms with similar dissolution profiles was presented. Hydrodynamically balanced systems (HBS) containing
l-dopa and various grades hydroxypropyl methylcelluloses were prepared. The dissolution studies of l-dopa were performed at high field (4.7 T) MR system with MR-compatible flow-through cell. MRI was done with 0.14 × 0.14 × 1-mm
spatial resolution and temporal resolution of 10 min to record changes of HBS parameters during dissolution in 0.1 M HCl.
Structural and geometrical changes were evaluated using the following parameters: total area of HBS cross-section, its Feret’s
diameter, perimeter and circularity, area of hydrogel layer, and “dry core” area. While the dissolution profiles of l-dopa were similar, the image analysis revealed differences in the structural and geometrical changes of the HBS. The mechanism
of drug release from polymeric matrices is a result of synergy of several different phenomena occurring during dissolution
and may differ between formulations, yet giving similar dissolution profiles. A multivariate analysis was performed to create
a model taking into account dissolution data, data from MRI, information about chemical structure, and polymer viscosity.
It provided a single model for all the formulations which was confirmed to be competent. The presented method has merit as
a potential Process Analytical Technology tool. 相似文献

Predictive in vitro test methods addressing the parameters relevant to drug release in the pediatric gastrointestinal tract could be an appropriate means for reducing the number of in vivo studies in children. However, dissolution models addressing the particular features of pediatric gastrointestinal physiology and typical pediatric dosing scenarios have not yet been described. The objective of the present study was to combine the knowledge on common vehicle types and properties and current information on pediatric gastrointestinal physiology to design a dissolution model that enables a biorelevant simulation of the gastrointestinal conditions in young children. The novel dissolution setup consists of a miniaturized dissolution system allowing the use of small fluid volumes, physiological bicarbonate-based test media, and a proper pH control during the experiment using a pHysio-stat® device. Following design and assembly of the novel in vitro setup, a set of experiments screening in vitro drug release from a valproate-extended release formulation under typical dosing conditions in infants was performed. In vitro drug release profiles indicated a controlled drug release of the test product over 12 h and were in good agreement with information given in the Summary of Product Characteristics and the Patient Information Leaflet, as well as with results from an in vivo food effect study performed with the same product and reported in the literature. The new dissolution setup thus represents a promising in vitro screening tool in the development of pediatric dosage forms and may help to reduce the number of pharmacokinetic studies in children. 相似文献

The release of verapamil hydrochloride from tablets with Eudragit RLPO or Kollidon®SR with different drug-to-polymer ratios were investigated with a view to develop twice-daily sustained-release dosage form by solid dispersion (SD) technique. The SDs containing Eudragit RLPO or Kollidon®SR at drug-polymer ratios of 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 with verapamil hydrochloride were developed using solvent evaporation technique. The physical mixtures of drug and both polymers were prepared by using simple mixing technique at the same ratio as solid dispersion. The physicochemical properties of solid dispersion were evaluated by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The study of DSC, XRD, and FTIR could not show significant interaction between verapamil HCl and Kollidon®SR or Eudragit RLPO. The solid dispersions or physical mixtures were compressed to tablets. The tablets were prepared with solid dispersions containing Eudragit RLPO or Kollidon®SR, with all the official requirements of tablet dosage forms fulfilled. Tablets prepared were evaluated for the release of verapamil hydrochloride over a period of 12 h in pH 6.8 phosphate buffer using US Pharmacopoeia type II dissolution apparatus. The in vitro drug release study revealed that the tablet containing Eudragit has extended the release rate for 12 h whereas the tablet containing Kollidon®SR at the same concentration has extended the release rate up to 8 h. The in vitro release profile and the mathematical models indicate that release of verapamil hydrochloride can be effectively controlled from a tablet containing solid dispersions of Eudragit RLPO. The reduction of size fraction of the SD system from 200–250 to 75–125 μm had a great effect on the drug release. 相似文献

Multiparticulate floating drug delivery systems have proven potential as controlled-release gastroretentive drug delivery systems that avoid the "all or none" gastric emptying nature of single-unit floating dosage forms. An objective of the presence investigation was to develop calcium silicate (CaSi)/calcium alginate (Ca-Alg)/hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) mucoadhesive-floating beads that provide time- and site-specific drug release of alfuzosin hydrochloride (Alf). Beads were prepared by simultaneous internal and external gelation method utilizing 3(2) factorial design as an experimental design; with two main factors evaluated for their influence on the prepared beads; the concentration of CaSi as floating aid (X (1)) and the percentage of HPMC as viscosity enhancer and mucoadhesive polymer (X (2)), each of them was tested in three levels. Developed formulations were evaluated for yield, entrapment efficiency, particle size, surface topography, and buoyancy. Differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, in vitro drug release, as well as in vitro mucoadhesion using rat stomach mucosal membrane were also conducted. Percentage yield and entrapment efficiency ranged from 57.03% to 78.51% and from 49.78% to 83.26%, respectively. Statistical analysis using ANOVA proved that increasing the concentration of either CaSi or HPMC significantly increased the beads yield. Both CaSi and HPMC concentrations were found to significantly affect Alf release from the beads. Additionally, higher CaSi concentration significantly increased the beads diameter while HPMC concentration showed significant positive effect on the beads mucoadhesive properties. CaSi/Ca-Alg/HPMC beads represent simple floating-mucoadhesive gastroretentive system that could be useful in chronopharmacotherapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia. 相似文献

This study compared the release behavior of single-unit (tablets, capsules) and multiple-unit (minitablets in capsules) controlled-release
systems of furosemide. The swelling and erosion behaviors of these systems, which contained the swellable hydrophilic polymers
sodium alginate (high viscosity) and Carbopol 974P, were compared. Swelling and erosion experiments showed a high degree of
swelling and limited erosion for the Carbopol preparations, whereas less swelling but greater erosion was observed for the
sodium alginate preparations. The sodium alginate preparations were eroded in 6 hours, while Carbopol preparations exhibited
limited erosion within this period of time. These results appear to be attributed to the physicochemical characteristics of
the polymers used in this study. Polymer characteristics greatly influenced the release of furosemide (model drug) from the
formulations prepared and tested. Sodium alginate had a less pronounced sustained release effect compared with Carbopol (ie,
in 8 hours all 3 sodium alginate dosage forms displayed complete release of furosemide, while only 30% of the drug was released
from Carbopol dosage forms). Finally, all 3 Carbopol dosage forms (single- and multiple-unit) displayed similar release behavior
while sodium alginate dosage forms displayed a different and more distinctive behavior. Minitablets and tablets showed a greater
sustained release effect compared with capsules. Evaluation of the release data indicates that the release mechanism for sodium
alginate formulations may be attributed to erosion/dissolution, while for Carbopol it may be attributed mainly to polymer
relaxation and diffusion of the drug from the polymer surface. 相似文献

Drugs that have narrow absorption window in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) will have poor absorption. For these drugs, gastroretentive drug delivery systems offer the advantage in prolonging the gastric emptying time. Swellable, floating, and sustained release tablets are developed by using a combination of hydrophilic polymer (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose), swelling agents (crospovidone, sodium starch glycolate, and croscarmelose sodium) and effervescent substance (sodium bicarbonate). Formulations are evaluated for percentage swelling, in vitro drug release, floating lag time, total duration of floating, and mean residence time (MRT) in the stomach. The drug release of optimized formulation follows the Higuchi kinetic model, and the mechanism is found to be non-Fickian/anomalous according to Krosmeyer–Peppas (n value is 0.68). The similarity factor (f 2) is found to be 26.17 for the optimized formulation, which the release is not similar to that of marketed produced (CIFRAN OD®). In vivo nature of the tablet at different time intervals is observed in the radiographic pictures of the healthy volunteers and MRT in the stomach is found to be 320?±?48.99 min (n?=?6). A combination of HPMC K100M, crospovidone, and sodium carbonate shows the good swelling, drug release, and floating characters than the CIFRAN OD®. 相似文献

The purpose of this research was to prepare a gastroretentive drug delivery system of ranitidine hydrochloride. Guar gum,
xanthan gum, and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose were evaluated for gel-forming properties. Sodium bicarbonate was incorporated
as a gas-generating agent. The effects of citric acid and stearic acid on drug release profile and floating properties were
investigated. The addition of stearic acid reduces the drug dissolution due to its hydrophobic nature. A 32 full factorial design was applied to systemically optimize the drug release profile. The amounts of citric acid anhydrous
(X1) and stearic acid (X2) were selected as independent variables. The times required for 50% (t50) and 80% drug dissolution (t80), and the similarity factor f2 were selected as dependent variables. The results of the full factorial design indicated that a low amount of citric acid
and a high amount of stearic acid favors sustained release of ranitidine hydrochloride from a gastroretentive formulation.
A theoretical dissolution profile was generated using pharmacokinetic parameters of ranitidine hydrochloride. The similarity
factor f2 was applied between the factorial design batches and the theoretical dissolution profile. No significant difference was observed
between the desired release profile and batches F2, F3, F6, and F9. Batch F9 showed the highest f2 (f2=75) among all the batches,
and this similarity is also reflected in t50 (∼214 minutes) and t80 (∼537 minutes) values. These studies indicate that the proper balance between a release rate enhancer and a release rate
retardant can produce a drug dissolution profile similar to a theoretical dissolution profile. 相似文献

The main objective of the present study is the physicochemical characterization of naturally available Terminalia catappa gum (Badam gum [BG]) as a novel pharmaceutical excipient and its suitability in the development of gastroretentive floating drug delivery systems (GRFDDS) to retard the drug for 12 h when the dosage form is exposed to gastrointestinal fluids in the gastric environment. As BG was being explored for the first time for its pharmaceutical application, physicochemical, microbiological, rheological, and stability studies were carried out on this gum. In the present investigation, the physicochemical properties, such as micromeritic, rheological, melting point, moisture content, pH, swelling index, water absorption, and volatile acidity, were evaluated. The gum was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffraction studies (PXRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Gastroretentive floating tablets of BG were prepared with the model drug propranolol HCl by direct compression methods. The prepared tablets were evaluated for all their physicochemical properties, in vitro buoyancy, in vitro drug release, and rate order kinetics. PBG 04 was selected as an optimized formulation based on its 12-h drug release and good buoyancy characteristics. The optimized formulation was characterized with FTIR, DSC, and PXRD studies, and no interaction between the drug and BG was found. Thus, the study confirmed that BG might be used in the gastroretentive drug delivery system as a release-retarding polymer.KEY WORDS: badam gum, floating, gastroretentive, propranolol HCl, Terminalia catappa 相似文献

The formulation factors relevant to developing immediate and controlled release dosage forms containing poorly soluble drugs dispersed in amorphous systems are poorly understood. While the utility of amorphous solid dispersions is becoming apparent in the pharmaceutical marketplace, literature reports tend to concentrate on the development of solid dispersion particulates, which then must be formulated into a tablet. Amorphous solid dispersions of itraconazole in high molecular weight hydroxypropyl methylcellulose were prepared by KinetiSol® Dispersing and tablets were formulated to immediately disintegrate or control the release of itraconazole. Formulated tablets were evaluated by two non-sink dissolution methodologies and the dosage form properties that controlled the gelling tendency of the dispersion carrier, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, were investigated. Selected formulations were evaluated in an exploratory beagle dog pharmacokinetic study; the results of which indicate potential for a prolonged absorption phase relative to the commercially extruded control. 相似文献

Cyclodextrins (CDs) are used in oral pharmaceutical formulations, by means of inclusion complexes formation, with the following
advantages for the drugs: (1) solubility, dissolution rate, stability, and bioavailability enhancement; (2) to modify the
drug release site and/or time profile; and (3) to reduce or prevent gastrointestinal side effects and unpleasant smell or
taste, to prevent drug–drug or drug–additive interactions, or even to convert oil and liquid drugs into microcrystalline or
amorphous powders. A more recent trend focuses on the use of CDs as nanocarriers, a strategy that aims to design versatile
delivery systems that can encapsulate drugs with better physicochemical properties for oral delivery. Thus, the aim of this
work was to review the applications of the CDs and their hydrophilic derivatives on the solubility enhancement of poorly water-soluble
drugs in order to increase their dissolution rate and get immediate release, as well as their ability to control (to prolong
or to delay) the release of drugs from solid dosage forms, either as complexes with the hydrophilic (e.g., as osmotic pumps)
and/or hydrophobic CDs. New controlled delivery systems based on nanotechnology carriers (nanoparticles and conjugates) have
also been reviewed. 相似文献

This work aims at increasing solubility and dissolution rate of ziprasidone free base—Biopharmaceutics Classifaction System (BCS) class II compound. The authors describe a practical approach to amorphization and highlight problems that may occur during the development of formulations containing amorphous ziprasidone, which was obtained by grinding in high-energy planetary ball mills or cryogenic mills. The release of ziprasidone free base from the developed formulations was compared to the reference drug product containing crystalline ziprasidone hydrochloride—Zeldox® hard gelatin capsules. All preparations were investigated using compendial tests (USP apparatuses II and IV) as well as novel, biorelevant dissolution tests. The novel test methods simulate additional elements of mechanical and hydrodynamic stresses, which have an impact on solid oral dosage forms, especially during gastric emptying. This step may prove to be particularly important for many formulations of BCS class II drugs that are often characterized by narrow absorption window, such as ziprasidone. The dissolution rate of the developed ziprasidone free base preparations was found to be comparable or even higher than in the case of the reference formulation containing ziprasidone hydrochloride, whose water solubility is about 400 times higher than its free base.KEY WORDS: amorphization, dissolution stress test device, enhanced dissolution, solubility improvement, ziprasidone free base formulations 相似文献

Extrudates based on varying ratios of the triglyceride tripalmitin and the hydrophilic polymer polyethylene glycol as matrix
formers were produced as oral dosage forms with controlled release characteristics. The extrudates were processed below the
melting points of the excipients and contained the hydrophobic model drug chloramphenicol. The influence of the ratio of the
matrix formers on drug dissolution was investigated, with an increase in the water-soluble polymer content increasing the
drug release rate. In addition, the effect of varying the extrusion process on the extrudate structure and drug dissolution
was investigated. Two-step extrusion was performed, which comprised an initial extrusion step of drug and one matrix component
followed by milling these extrudates and a second extrusion step for the milled extrudates mixed with the second matrix component.
Initial extrusion with polyethylene glycol led to increased dissolution rates, while initial extrusion with tripalmitin led
to decreased dissolution rates compared to the dissolution characteristics of extrudates containing the same composition produced
by one-step extrusion. Thus, two-step solid lipid extrusion can successfully be used as a process to modify the dissolution
behavior of extrudates. 相似文献

3D printing evolved as a promising technique to improve individualization of drug therapy. In particular, when printing sustained release solid dosage forms, as for instance implants, inserts, and also tablets, estimation of the drug release profile in vivo is necessary. In most cases, corresponding analyses cannot be performed at hospital or community pharmacies. Therefore, the present study aimed to develop a sustained release drug delivery system produced via 3D printing, which allows dose adaption and estimation of drug release at the same time. Filaments as feedstock for the printer were produced via hot-melt extrusion and consisted of Eudragit® RL as sustained release polymer, 30% theophylline as model active pharmaceutical ingredient, and stearic acid as solid plasticizer. Assuming that the surface/mass ratio was constant, network structures of different densities were printed as novel solid dosage form. Their weight (263 to 668 mg), thereby their dose, and surface area, determined using X-ray microcomputed tomography, showed a linear correlation with the fill density. The specific surface area of the network hardly varied with changing fill density. Dissolution studies showed a slower drug release for dosage forms with a denser network. Higuchi’s model was used for prediction of drug release and showed limited applicability due to different release kinetics for different fill densities. However, using linear interpolation for the prediction resulted in good RMSEP values between 1.4 and 3.7%. These findings might be useful to enable customized production of sustained release solid dosage forms via 3D printing in hospital and community pharmacies in the future. 相似文献

Compacts containing selected bioadhesive polymers, fillers, and binders were investigated for their potential as a bioadhesive
gastroretentive delivery system to deliver water soluble and water insoluble compounds in the stomach. Compacts with 90:10,
75:25, and 60:40 of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and polyethylene oxide (PEO) were evaluated for swelling, dissolution, bioadhesion,
and in vitro gastric retention. Compacts containing higher PEO showed higher swelling (111.13%) and bioadhesion (0.62 ± 0.03 N/cm2), and retained their integrity and adherence onto gastric mucosa for about 9 h under in vitro conditions. In vivo gastroretentive property of compacts were evaluated in Yorkshire cross swines. Compacts containing 58% PVP, 40% PEO and 2%
of water soluble or water insoluble marker compounds showed gastroadhesive and retentive properties in vivo. It is concluded that PEO in combination with PVP yields a non disintegrating type bioadhesive dosage form which is suitable
for gastroretentive applications.

The aim of the present study was to prepare and characterize extended-release matrix tablets of zidovudine using hydrophilic
Eudragit RLPO and RSPO alone or their combination with hydrophobic ethyl cellulose. Release kinetics was evaluated by using
United States Pharmacopeia (USP)-22 type I dissolution apparatus. Scanning electron microscopy was used to visualize the effect of dissolution medium on matrix
tablet surface. Furthermore, the in vitro and in vivo newly formulated sustained-release zidovudine tablets were compared
with conventional marketed tablet (Zidovir, Cipla Ltd, Mumbai, India). The in-vitro drug release study revealed that either
Eudragit preparation was able to sustain the drug release only for 6 hours (94.3%±4.5% release). Combining Eudragit with ethyl
cellulose sustained the drug release for 12 hours (88.1%±4.1% release). Fitting the in vitro drug release data to Korsmeyer
equation indicated that diffusion along with erosion could be the mechanism of drug release. In vivo investigation in rabbits
showed sustained-release pharmacokinetic profile of zidovudine from the matrix tablets formulated using combination of Eudragits
and ethylcellulose. In conclusion, the results suggest that the developed sustained-release tablets of zidovudine could perform
therapeutically better than conventional dosage forms, leading to improve efficacy and better patient compliance.

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of experimental conditions on levothyroxine sodium release from two immediate-release tablet formulations which narrowly passed the standard requirements for bioequivalence studies. The in vivo study was conducted as randomised, single-dose, two-way cross-over pharmacokinetic study in 24 healthy subjects. The in vitro study was performed using various dissolution media, and obtained dissolution profiles were compared using the similarity factor value. Drug solubility in different media was also determined. The in vivo results showed narrowly passing bioequivalence. Considering that levothyroxine sodium is classified as Class III drug according to the Biopharmaceutics Classification System, drug bioavailability will be less sensitive to the variation in its dissolution characteristics and it can be assumed that the differences observed in vitro in some of investigated media probably do not have significant influence on the absorption process, as long as rapid and complete dissolution exists. The study results indicate that the current regulatory criteria for the value of similarity factor in comparative dissolution testing, as well as request for very rapid dissolution (more than 85% of drug dissolved in 15 min), are very restricted for immediate-release dosage forms containing highly soluble drug substance and need further investigation. The obtained results also add to the existing debate on the appropriateness of the current bioequivalence standards for levothyroxine sodium products.KEY WORDS: bioequivalence, dissolution, immediate release, levothyroxine sodium, solubility 相似文献

Enalapril maleate (EM) is a widely used anti-hypertensive drug which is unstable when mixed with excipients. Enalaprilate and diketopiperazine (DPK) are the main degradation products of enalapril. The in situ preparation of enalapril sodium salt (NaE) has been used to improve drug stability in dosage forms; however, gas release and product rejection ensue when the chemical reaction for obtaining the sodium salt is not completely finished before packaging. This study evaluated the effect of stearic acid (SA) on enalapril stability in microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) pellets containing EM or NaE. MCC pellets containing SA were prepared by the extrusion–spheronization technique and characterized. Enalapril stability and dissolution were then evaluated. DPK and enalaprilate formation were reduced by the addition of SA in pellets containing EM. The overall enalapril degradation in these formulations was lower when compared with pellets containing EM or even NaE prepared without SA. The immediate-release characteristic was maintained by the addition of 5% crospovidone to all the formulations tested. The incorporation of SA into NaE pellets resulted in unexpected enalapril degradation, caused by the interaction of these compounds, as suggested by a thermal analysis of the SA–NaE binary mixture. The findings presented here showed that formulations containing SA could substitute the formation of NaE, since they provide better enalapril stability in solid dosage forms. In addition, it is suggested that the stabilization effects would be observed for other N-carboxyalkyl dipeptide analogs with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition activity, since these new entities share the same degradation pathway of enalapril. 相似文献

The objective of the present studies was systematic development of floating-bioadhesive gastroretentive tablets of cefuroxime axetil employing rational blend of hydrophilic polymers for attaining controlled release drug delivery. As per the QbD-based approach, the patient-centric target product profile and quality attributes of tablet were earmarked, and preliminary studies were conducted for screening the suitability of type of polymers, polymer ratio, granulation technique, and granulation time for formulation of tablets. A face-centered cubic design (FCCD) was employed for optimization of the critical material attributes, i.e., concentration of release controlling polymers, PEO 303 and HPMC K100 LV CR, and evaluating in vitro buoyancy, drug release, and ex vivo mucoadhesion strength. The optimized formulation was embarked upon through numerical optimization, which yield excellent floatation characteristic with drug release control (i.e., T 60%?>?6 h) and bioadhesion strength. Drug-excipient compatibility studies through FTIR and P-XRD revealed the absence of any interaction between the drug and polymers. In vivo evaluation of the gastroretentive characteristics through X-ray imaging and in vivo pharmacokinetic studies in rabbits revealed significant extension in the rate of drug absorption (i.e., T max, K a, and MRT) from the optimized tablet formulation as compared to the marketed formulation. Successful establishment of various levels of in vitro/in vivo correlations (IVIVC) substantiated high degree of prognostic ability of in vitro dissolution conditions in predicting the in vivo performance. In a nutshell, the studies demonstrate successful development of the once-a-day gastroretentive formulations of cefuroxime axetil with controlled drug release profile and improved compliance. 相似文献

Dissolution testing is an in vitro procedure which is widely used in quality control (QC) of solid oral dosage forms and, given that real biorelevant test conditions are applied, can also be used as a predictive tool for the in vivo performance of such formulations. However, if a dissolution method is intended to be used for such purposes, it has to deliver results that are only determined by the quality of the test product, but not by other variables. In the recent past, more and more questions were arising on how to address the effects of vibration on dissolution test results. The present study was performed to screen for the correlation of prednisone dissolution of USP Prednisone Tablets RS with vibration caused by a commercially available vibration source as well as to investigate how drug release from a range of immediate release formulations containing class 1–4 drugs of the biopharmaceutical classification scheme is affected by vibration when performing dissolution experiments at different agitation rates. Results of the present study show that the dissolution process of oral drug formulations can be affected by vibration. However, it also becomes clear that the degree of which a certain level of vibration impacts dissolution is strongly dependent on several factors such as drug properties, formulation parameters, and the design of the dissolution method. To ensure the establishment of robust and predictive dissolution test methods, the impact of variation should thus be considered in method design and validation.KEY WORDS: dissolution, USP prednisone calibrator tablets, variability, vibration meter, vibration source 相似文献

In 2003, the FIP Dissolution Working group published a position paper on dissolution/drug release testing for special/novel dosage forms that represented the scientific opinions of many experts in the field at that time (1). The position paper has supported activities, programs, and decisions in the scientific, technical, and regulatory community. Due to the rapid evolution of new practices and techniques for in vitro testing, the FIP Special Interest Group (SIG) on Dissolution/Drug Release decided to revise the previous paper and added proposals for further harmonization of in vitro release testing practices for different pharmaceutical dosage forms. This article represents the current updates to the previously published paper. This revision has been aligned to coincide with the USP taxonomy including route of administration, intended site of drug release, and dosage form. The revised paper includes information from current literature, expert discussions, and presentations from recent workshops (2,3). The authors acknowledge and expect further updates to be made as additional progress is made in the relevant areas. Thus, comments and additional contributions are welcome and may be considered for the next revision of the position paper. 相似文献
