1.Advancement of potent narcotic anaIgesics:combination of oxycodone
Chinese Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology 2014;(5):758-764
Oxycodone,an opioid receptor agonist,is one of potent narcotic analgesics. Despite its potent analgesic effect,the tolerant and dependent liability of oxycodone as well as its inhibition on gas-trointestinal motility strongly restricts its clinical application. Since the end of the last century,antipyretic, opioid receptor agonist,opioid receptor antagonist and dopamine receptor antagonist have been used to in combination with oxycodone at different ratios as complex prescriptions,the aim of which is to enhance the effect of oxycodone,decrease the dosage of oxycodone,and prevent the adverse effect and the tendency for misuse. Here we reviewed the development of oxycodone compositions in the recent years,hoping to provide more data for its potential clinical application.

Gut microbiota(GM)consists of a complex community of microorganism species that live in the digestive tracts of animals including humans. Dysbiosis is believed to involve in the development of some diseases. Recently dysbiosis in the patients with Alzheimer′s disease(AD)and AD rat models was reported. GM may influence the pathogenesis and development of AD in several ways. Some neurotoxic substances produced by GM can invade into the brain via circulation and impair the neural functions. These sub?stances include ammonia,cyanobacteria-producedβ-N-methylamino-L-alanine,saxitoxin,anatoxin-αand amyloid. The decrease in brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)in hippocampus and cerebral cortex induced by dysbiosis contributes to the cognitive dys?function. Dysbiosis related endotoxin can induce inflammation,which is one important risk factor for obesity,insulin resistance(IR) and type 2 diabetes mellitus(TIDM). AD and diabetes have good correlation and similarity. Probiotics,prebiotics and Chinese herbal medicines can rebuild GM and have been reported to ameliorate the memory loss of AD patients or model rats. However ,whether and how their preventative and therapeutic effects on AD mediated by GM are worthy of further investigation.

Objective To study the death mode and mechanism of HeLa cancer cell induced by five strain bluetongue virus(BTV). Methods Transmission electron microscope(TEM) was introduced to study changes of ultrastructure. Growth and apoptosis of HeLa cell infected with bluetongue virus were detected with MTT assay and flow cytometry. DNA fragmentation and the activity of caspase-3, -8, -9 were determined by colorimetric assay. Results Many HeLa cells which infected with BTV were observed apoptosis and lyse, and in the plasma were found many viral inclubodies and subviral particles without outer layer proteins. BTV could inhibit HeLa cell proliferation moderately and different serotypes of virus had different effect. Various stages of apoptotic cells were found by flow cytometry and the percentage of apoptosis caused by five strain bluetongue virus were not the same. DNA-Ladder was typical. Caspase-3,-8 ,-9 activity were increased by varying degrees. Conclusion BTV could infect in HeLa cell efficiently and induce it to apoptosis in vitro, then different serotypes of virus have different effect.

BACKGROUND:Flexible intramedulary nailing and external fixation for pediatric femoral shaft fractures are two common methods in the clinic. It remains controversial which fixation methods are better. OBJECTIVE:To systematicaly evaluate the therapeutic effects of flexible intramedulary nailing and external fixation for pediatric femoral shaft fractures. METHODS: A computer-based search was performed on PubMed, Embase, Medline, and Cochrane library for literatures on clinical controled trials of flexible intramedulary nailing and external fixation for pediatric femoral shaft fractures published before November 25, 2014. Literature language was not limited. The age of subjects was from 3 to 15 years. Modified Jadad was utilized to assess methodological quality of the included studies. Meta-analysis was carried out using Stata 12.0 software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Six papers involving 237 patients were included. Meta-analysis results showed that compared with external fixation, a low incidence of overal complications [relative risk (RR)=0.30, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.19-0.46;P < 0.001] and pin-hole infection (RR=0.286, 95%CI: 0.13-0.61;P= 0.001), but a high risk of needle tail irritation (RR=1.86, 95%CI: 1.35-2.56;P < 0.001) were found folowing flexible intramedulary nailing. No significant differences in other complications were found between the two groups. These results confirm that compared with external fixation, elastic intramedulary nail has fewer complications and faster fracture healing. Elastic intramedulary nail is recommended for single pediatric femoral shaft fractures. However, external fixation is a better option for high energy injury of lower limbs, multiple trauma or severely soft tissue injury.

Objective:
To introduce a new surgical technique for the correction of congenital syndactyly without skin grafts.
Methods:
The technique consists of a dorsal double-wing flap created from the dorsal skin of the metacarpophalangeal joint to cover the newly released web space and zigzag incisions in the fingers, thus avoiding the use of skin grafts in this area.
Results:
From May 2010 to October 2016, 35 web spaces in 24 patients were treated using this technique. There were no complications such as haematoma, infection or flap necrosis. The average follow-up time was 54 months (range, 6 months to 60 months). One of the 35 webs developed web creep. No patients developed flexion contractures. All webs had good appearance with 45 degrees inclination from dorsal to palmar. All fingers had no obvious scar, and the flexion and abduction function were good.
Conclusions
The technique is simple, rapid, safe and easily performed and does not require the use of skin grafts.

Objective To determine the efficacy of therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pan-creatography (ERCP) in treatment of pain of chronic pancreatitis (CP). Methods The data of CP patients accompanying with pain, who received therapeutic ERCP from 1997 to 2006, were retrospectively analyzed.The diagnosis of CP was made based on the criteria from 2002 Asia-Pacific Consensus, and the effect of ther-apy was evaluated. Results Of 253 patients who received therapeutic ERCP, follow-up data were obtained from 214 patients ( 144 males and 70 females, ages ranging from 6.5 to 78.0 years, mean age 40. 5 years).The mean follow-up period was 41.9 months (12~131 months). Twenty-eight patients (13. 1% ) under-went surgery after ERCP. Relief rates of pain in patients who underwent ERCP with or without operation were 71.4% and 83.9% (P >0. 05 ) respectively. The overall relief rate of ERCP was 73%. The incidence of major complications related to the procedure was 14.9% (71/476) in terms of ERCP sessions, including post-ERCP pancreatitis in 12. 6%, mild cholangitis in 2. 1% and hemorrhage in 0. 2%. All complications sub-sided with conservative medical managements in 2 to 20 days. No perforation or death related to the procedure occurred. Conclusion Therapeutic ERCP is a mean of effective management of pain in patients with CP.
