OBJECTIVE:To probe into the status quo and the tendency of the utilization of the anti-osteoporosis drugs in hospitals along the Yangtze valley. METHODS: The utilization of the anti-osteoporosis drugs in 177 hospitals of 6 cities along the Yangtze valley during 2004～2008 was analyzed statistically in respect of the orders of consumption sum and defined daily dose (DDD). RESULTS: The total amount of the drugs used for osteoporosis in the hospitals of the Yangtze valley showed year-on-year increase,and its proportion in the total remained at around 1.16% on the consumption sum list. The consumption sum of Diphosphonates showed sharp increase,many of its subcategories had forced into the top 10 places on the list of consumption sum and their rankings were moving forward steadily. Alfacalcidol and Calcitonin dominated the first two places over the 5 years. The top 10 manufacturers in terms of the sales sum of the drugs for osteoporosis were mainly foreign investment manufacturers and joint ventures. CONCLUSION: With the aging of the population and the strengthening of public awareness on health,the drugs used for osteoporosis enjoy a potential market,especially to domestic products and domestic manufacturers.

In this paper, we describe mismatch, chaos, and disorder behavior during healthcare seeking. Such structural imbalances, scarcity and surplus make healthcare services less efficient. We give reasons for such phenomena in terms of long-term effects of health resource allocation policy-making and implementation, inherent de-fects within healthcare insurance, incomplete market development, and cultural issues. We then propose four policy strategies, including rational price mechanism, strict referral healthcare system, confidence in basic healthcare facili-ties, and proper healthcare cultures. These will restore orderly healthcare behavior and help realize expectations for the current healthcare reform in China.

Objective To investigate and analyze the effects of problem-based learning used in clinical nursing education. Method The research papers on the effect of problem-based learning used in clinical nursing education were retrieved via CNKI, Wanfang,VIP,PubMed,ProQuest and Google scholar websites and then analyzed by Revman5.0 software.Results Totally 11 RCTs were included.Meta-analysis showed that PBL could significantly promote students’examination scores,self-study ability, critical thinking and clinical skill,but insignificantly improved the effect in improvement of their theory learning,interest and ability in cooperation.Conclusions PBL is a scientific clinical teaching method,which can stimulate students’initiative and exploratory learning and enhance effects of clinical teaching.Meanwhile,we suggest formulating evaluation criteria and implementing rigorous RCT designs in the future.

This research applied the theory of customer satisfaction model in the evaluation of the clinical information system. By means of qualitative and quantitative methods, it made validity and reliability measurement on the measurement tools in use. In addition, it extracted the structure validity of the factor regulating scale via a factor analysis, and developed the scale for clinical information system measurement These efforts provided the hospitals with the useful measurement tool to improve their information system, promoting positive and practical hospital informationziation.

OBJECTIVE:To study the release characteristics of Evening primrose oil microspheres in vitro. METHODS:UV spectrophotometry was adopted to determine the accumulated release of microspheres under different media,and the drug release behaviors in vitro were fitted using zero-order,first-order and Higuchi equations. RESULTS:The accumulated release of microspheres in the gastrointestinal liquid (within 6 h) was up to(92.84?0.35)%;under the media of artificial gastric juice,the release of drug conformed to Higuchi equation:Q=5.941t1/2—11.083(r=0.991 7); under the media of artificial intestinal juice,the release of drug was in line with first-rate equation:ln(100—Q)=—0.487 4t+4.588(r=0.996 4). CONCLUSION:This method is simple,accurate and reproducible,and it can be used for the determination of the release rate of the Evening primrose oil microspheres.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze clinical efficacy and safety of pioglitazone combined with metformin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes.METHODS:102 patients with type 2 diabetes were randomly divided into 2 groups.Treatment group received pioglitazone combined with metformin and treatment group received metformin alone.The levels of blood glucose and insulin were observed and compared between 2 groups.RESULTS:After 6 months of treatment,fasting plasma glucose(FPG),postprandial 2 h blood glucose(P2hBG),glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),fasting insulin(FINS),postprandial 2 h insulin(P2hINS),steady-state assessment index of insulin(HOMA-IR) in 2 groups were significantly decreased,there was statistical significance in difference before and after treatment(P

To determine the effects of Remifentanil on the expression of adhesive factors during acute lung injury, we used immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR) technics to measure the expression levels of ICAM 1, and P Selectin in the lung in a rat model of hemorrhagic shock. We duplicated modified Wigger hemorrhagic shock model in healthy SD rats. The rats were divided into three groups: control group, resuscitation group, resuscitation and drug using group. The positive ratios of ICAM 1 and P Selectin in the lungs at different time points, namely preshock, shock, resuscitation 2 hours, and resuscitation 4 hours were determined. There were 6 rats in each group and each time point. The degree of pulmonary injury in the drug using group was less than that in other two groups. Resuscitation with lactated Ringer's solution led to most serious injury in the resuscitation group. In drug using group, the expression of ICAM 1 and P Selectin was far less than that in the other two groups ( P
