China Pharmacy 2001;0(07):-
OBJECTIVE: To probe into the causes of drug repercussion of inpatients in psychiatric hospital to promote rational drug use. METHODS: Using HIS (hospital information system), the drug repercussion data in 8 psychiatirc departments (ward pharmacy) between 2004 and 2005 were analyzed statistically. RESULTS: Of the total 203 drug repercussion cases analzyed, most were resulted from alteration of doctor’s orders, man-made entry errors of drug information, and high drug costs etc. CONCLUSION: The effective way to reduce drug repercussion is to improve technical level and working attitude, establish good rules and regulations and standardize service conditions.

0.05). The average and maximal heart rates of subjects in bench stepping during exercise were higher than those in home stepping (P 0.05), however, the correlation between the direct calculation and home stepping was high (r=0.46, P 0.05).③The correlation between two step experiments for male students was high (r=0.73, P 0.05), however, the difference for female students was significant (P 0.05). CONCLUSION: Two indirect test protocols need further improvements, but home step is more appropriate for a large sample of constitution assessment by comparison of measurement efficiency and precision.

BACKGROUND:Based on the blood and urine biochemical changes in different intensities and types of exercise, this research describes the impact of exercise on bone metabolism. Meantime, these biochemical indexes also show a method of marking physiological differences of certain individuals, and also reflect the impact of exercise on bone. These can be regarded as a monitoring index of bone growth and metabolism. OBJECTIVE:To study exercise effect from the biochemical indicators in bone metebolism, and make a further discussion about its influence on bone formation and bone resorption. METHODS:Databases of CNKI and PubMed were retrieved by computer with key words of “exercise; bone metabolism; biochemical indicators” in Chinese and English, respectively, by screening titles and abstracts to search papers related to exercise effects on the blood and urine biochemical indicators. Totaly 236 papers were initialy found, and only 38 papers were included in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Low-intensity exercise shows less effect on the bone, but excessive exercise is harmful to the bone that can cause stress fractures. What’s worse, it causes a lack of female hormone and reduce bone mass. Exercise can alter the blood and urine biochemical indicators in aspects of types of exercise and intensities. Only the exercise at appropriate intensity makes positive effects on bone formation and resorption, and assists bone mineral density and bone biomechanical indicators to develop exercise prescription and arrange rehabilitation exercises. MechanismS of bone turnover need further discussion at the celular level.

Objective To investigate the difference of lung and target volume and dosimetry characteristics features of deep inhalation breathing holding-active breathing control (ABC) and the four dimensional CT (4D-CT) free breathing in stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) technology for patients with lung cancer.Methods 10 patients with pulmonary malignant tumor who were proposed SBRT treatment were selected,and received CT under free breath (FB-CT),4D-CT scan under quiet respiration (4D-CT) and active breathing control CT scan (ABC-CT),respectively.With SBRT technology under the same condition designed four corresponding plans,FB-CT,ABC-CT,4D-CT and 4D-CT0 which was the end inspiratory phase of 4D-CT respectively.The lung volume(V),PTV,V5,V20,mean lung dose(MLD) and normal tissue complication probability(NTCP) of four treatment programs were counted and compared.Results Compared with FB-CT,V,PTV,V5,V20,MLD and NTCP of ABC-CT were 51.48%,-65.34%,-42.64%,-56.62%,-40.22% and-98.53% (t=-7.14 to6.16,P<0.05);PTV,V5,V20,MLD and NTCP of 4D-CT were-40.14%,-16.90%,-37.16%,-17.85% and-90.96% (t =0.54 to 3.22,P<0.05);PTV,V5,V20,MLD and NTCP of 4D-CT0 were-68.98%,-30.21%,-48.49%,-37.45% and-95.82% (t=1.32 to 5.46,P<0.05),respectively.Compared with FB-CT,the lung volume of 4D-CT and 4D-CT0 had no statistical difference (P > 0.05).Conclusions ABC-CT methods have ideal clinical characteristics,with larger double lung volume,smaller artifacts of image,and higher target matching precision.ABC-CT methods reduce the dose of normal lung tissues significantly.

Although methyltransferase has been recognized as a major element that governs the epigenetic regulation of the genome during temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients, its regulatory effect on glioblastoma chemoresistance has not been well defined. This study investigated whether DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) expression was associated with TMZ sensitivity in glioma cells and elucidated the underlying mechanism. DNMT expression was analyzed by western blotting. miR-20a promoter methylation was evaluated by methylation-specific PCR. Cell viability and apoptosis were assessed using the 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and TdT-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling assays, respectively. The results showed that compared with parental U251 cells, DNMT1 expression was downregulated, miR-20a promoter methylation was attenuated and miR-20a levels were elevated in TMZ-resistant U251 cells. Methyltransferase inhibition by 5-aza-2\'-deoxycytidine treatment reduced TMZ sensitivity in U251 cells. In U251/TM cells, DNMT1 expression was negatively correlated with miR-20a expression and positively correlated with TMZ sensitivity and leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains 1 expression; these effects were reversed by changes in miR-20a expression. DNMT1 overexpression induced an increase in U251/TM cell apoptosis that was inhibited by the miR-20a mimic, whereas DNMT1 silencing attenuated U251/TM cell apoptosis in a manner that was abrogated by miR-20a inhibitor treatment. Tumor growth of the U251/TM xenograft was inhibited by pcDNA-DNMT1 pretreatment and boosted by DNMT1-small hairpin RNA pretreatment. In summary, DNMT1 mediated chemosensitivity by reducing methylation of the microRNA-20a promoter in glioma cells.
