OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effectiveness of antibacterial clinical application special rectification activity,and to provide reference for rational use of antibacterials. METHODS:Referring to rational antibacterials application index stated in Na-tional Antibacterial Clinical Application Special Rectification Activity in 2013,the utilization of antibacterials in 36 secondary hospi-tals from Xi’an area during 2nd quarter in 2015 were analyzed retrospectively in terms of drug use index,types,consumption sum,DDDs and DDC,etc. RESULTS:Among 36 secondary hospitals from Xi’an area,there were only 3 hospitals up to the anti-bacterials use indicator standard(8.33%);antibacterial use of 91.66% inpatients was up to the standard;55.56%of antibacterials use density was up to the standard;50.00% of outpatient antibacterials drug prescriptions was up to the standard;77.78% of emer-gency antibacterials drug prescriptions was up to the standard;13.89% of antibacterials was used in typeⅠincision surgery for pro-phylactic use. Restricted use antibacterial accounted for 48.53% in consumption sum and Non-restricted use antibacterial accounted for 75.31% in DDDs. The consumption sum(12 771 265.34 yuan)and DDDs(291 542.31)of cephalosporin ranked first,mainly were second generation cephalosporin(accounting for 35.22% of consumption sum and 42.98% of DDDs). Top 10 drugs in the list of consumption sum were all injection;there was no special class of antibacterials but some antibacterias with high price and poor efficacy in top 10 ones. Top 10 drugs in the list of DDDs were non-restricted use and restricted use antibacterials with low price and good efficacy,among which there were 6 oral dosage forms. CONCLUSIONS:The application of antibacterials is still can not reach national standard in 36 secondary hospitals from Xi’an area. It is necessary to be further strengthen the management of inpa-tient antibacterial use density,the proportion of antibacterials used in outpatient and emergency patients,prophylactic application of antibacterials in type Ⅰ incision,the application of antibacterials with high price and poor therapeutic efficacy should be monitored closely.

Objective To investigate the effect of gypenoside on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated inflammatory response. Methods The BV2 microglia cell line was cultured in vitro. The BV2 microglia cells were divided into four groups: normal control, LPS (10 ng/ml), GP + LPS (GP 20 μg/ml, LPS 10 ng/ml), and GP (20 μg/ml). After 24 h cultivation, ELISA was used to detect the levels of tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6. Immunocytochemistry staining and Western blot were used to detect the expression levels of nuclear factor (NF-κB) and suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS-1). Results Compared with the normal control group, the release of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, as well as the expression level of NF-κB in the LPS group were increased significantly (all P < 0. 001). Compared with the LPS group, the release of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, as well as the expression level of NFκB were decreased significantly, while the expression level of SOCS-1 was increased significantly (P < 0. 001). There were no significant differences in the release of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, as well as the expression levels of NF-κB and SOCS-1 between the GP group and normal control group (all P > 0. 05 ). Conclusions GP can significantly inhibit the LPS-mediated microglial inflammatory response. SOCS-1 protein may be involved in GP inhibiting LPS-mediated microglial inflammatory response.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics and prognostic factors of primary clear cell carcinoma of the liver(PCCCL). Methods A total of 214 PCCCL patients treated by curative resection from January 1996 to March 2006 were retrospectively analyzed. Results The 1-,3-,and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates for PCCCL patients were significantly better than those of non-clear cell hepatocellular carcinoma ( NHCC ) patients ( 90.2%,70.6%,and 55.9% vs 82.8%,62.7% and 47.7%,P =0.001 ).Tumor size was significantly smaller in PCCCL group than in NHCC group ( x2 =4.37,P =0.04 ).Tumors of PCCCL group had a lower incidence of vascular invasion ( x2 =9.42,P =0.002) and a better differentiation than those of NHCC group ( x2 =4.30,P =0.04).Serum a-fetoprotein (AFP) level,tumor size,liver cirrhosis,and vascular invasion were independent risk factors impacting OS and disease-free survival (DFS) of PCCCL. Conclusions PCCCL is an uncommon subtype of HCC and has different clinicopathologic characteristics from NHCC. Complete surgical resection is the optimal treatment for PCCCL and its prognosis is much better than that of NHCC.

Three of 59 HCC patients underwent 5 grade adverse drug reactions ,with the incidence of 5.1%(3/59), including 1 case undergoing first-line therapy with immune hepatitis, 1 case undergoing second-line therapy with immune pneumonia and 1 case undergoing second-line therapy with immune enteritis. Some of patients underwent multiple adverse drug reactions at the same time. Twenty five patients undergoing 3 to 4 grade adverse drug reactions were relieved with the treatment of drug reduction, drug withdrawal, symptomatic treatment or hormone therapy. Three patients undergoing 5 grade adverse drug reactions died after being treated with high-dose hormone shock and hepatoprotective treatment. (3) Follow-up and survival: all 59 patients were followed up for 1.5 to 25.2 months, with a median follow-up time of 13.3 months. Of them, patients undergoing first-line therapy were followed up for 1.9 to 25.2 months, with a median follow-up time of 13.5 months. During follow-up,20 cases undergoing first-line therapy died with the fatality rate of 46.5%(20/43). Patients undergoing second-line therapy were followed up for 1.5 to 24.4 months, with a median follow-up time of 10.8 months. During follow-up, 10 cases undergoing second-line therapy died with the fatality rate of 10/16. Up to the latest follow-up, the tumor diameter of the target lesion in all 59 patients, in patients undergoing first-line therapy and in patients undergoing second-line therapy was 75 mm(38 mm, 125 mm), 74 mm(36 mm, 116 mm), 84 mm(48 mm,150 mm), respectively. The ratio of tumor diameter of the target lesion at latest follow-up to tumor diameter of the target lesion at baseline were -9.05%(-27.3%, 19.7%), -16.1%(-28.8%, 13.6%), 13.2%(-24.7%, 23.5%) for all 59 patients, patients undergoing first-line therapy and patients undergoing second-line therapy, respectively.
