Objective:To determine the role of PTHrP in new bone formation and bone destruction and the mechanisms involved.Methods:LCC15-MB breast cancer cells were transfected with full-length PTHrP-141 cDNA,and the conditioned medium was collected and cultured with mouse calvarial bones in an in vitro organ culture system.The effects of 1PTHrP-141 on new bone formation and bone destruction were examined by histological examination.Results:PTHrP produced from transfected breast cancer cells induced new bone formation at lower doses and bone resorption at higher concentrations.Conclusion:These results provide direct evidence that PTHrP plays a biphasic role in bone remodeling depending on the concentration administered.

Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens of ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP) in general intensive care unit(ICU).Methods Statistical methods were used to analyze retrospectively the data of pathogens and drug resistance of VAP in general ICU from 2004 to 2006.Results Totally 347 pathogens were isolated from deep-part secretion of lower respiratory tracts of 302 VAP in general ICU.The main pathogens included Pseudomonas aeruginosa(32.3%),Acinetobacter baumanii(31.1%),Staphylococcus aurous(16.7%),Klebsiella(7.5%) and Coagulase-negative Staphylococci(6.1%).Gram-negative bacillus showed a high resistance to piperacillin and Cefotaxime but high susceptibility to carbapenems and the enzyme inhibitor antibiotics.Gram-positive coccobacteria showed a high resistance to Penicillin,Clindamycin and Erythromycin but high susceptibility to Vancomycin and Quinolone.Conclusion Gram-negative bacillus was the main pathogen of VAP in general ICU,multidrug resistance was serious.The rate of methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aurous(MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci(MRCNS) was high,with serious drug resistance.According to the data of the bacteria pathogen and antibiotics susceptibity,we can select antibiotics reasonably to control the infection and delay the emergency of new drug-resistant bacteria.

Objective To observe the effect of acupoint magnetic therapy on coronary heart disease.Methods 80 patients with coronary heart disease were divided into treatment group( n =40) and control group( n =40).The treatment group was treated with acupoint magnetic therapy on the basis of conventional treatment,and the control group with conventional treatment.Clinical therapeutic effect,the scores of traditional Chinese medicine symptom were observed.Results There was significant difference between the two groups in the total effective rate and the scores of traditional Chinese medicine symptom[90.0％ vs 72.5％,(13.25 ± 3.68 ) vs (15.18 ± 4.16),all P ＜0.05].Conclusion Acupoint magnetic therapy for treatment of coronary heart disease has an obvious therapeutic effect.

OBJECTIVE:To improve the automation and information level of Pharmacy intravenous admixture service (PIV-AS),and provide reference for the PIVAS development. METHODS:Related functions of DS8000 intelligent sorting system and its effect of PIVAS were introduced;work environment,workflow,work efficiency,labor intensity and sorting error before and af-ter the system application were compared. RESULTS:The application of intelligent sorting system achieved the automation of multi-ple links including reviewing,sorting,automatically counting,automatically generating hand-over lists of departments,statistical inquiring for related information in finished soft bag infusion sorting. Compared with manual sorting,it only covered less area, working environment was neat and orderly,workflow links was reduced (6 vs. 10),work time was shortened (average time for sorting per bag of infusion 13.53 s vs. 3.11 s),labor intensity was decreased,and work error rate was reduced (0.128‰ vs. 0.013‰);meanwhile,it improved the management for shading drugs,and achieved data analysis of PIVAS and management infor-mation. CONCLUSIONS:The application of DS8000 intelligent sorting system has improved the automation and information of PI-VAS,and promoted the construction and development of PIVAS.
