Objective To observe the change of the serum trough concentration and its pharmacokinetics of vancomycin in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), and to analyze the factors influencing vancomycin concentration. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted. Steady-state trough concentrations of vancomycin from patients (18-80 years old) with SAP concomitantly with G+ infection admitted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from January 2010 to December 2016 were enrolled. According to the usage time of vancomycin, the patients with SAP were divided into early group (onset within 21 days), middle group (onset between 21-28 days) and late group (onset over 28 days). The gender, age, body weight, clinical diagnosis, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ ) score, renal function, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were recorded. Influencing factors of vancomycin was analyzed by multiple linear regression and stepwise regression. Results Fifty-eight patients were enrolled who contained 134 times trough concentrations of vancomycin. There were 41 patients enrolled and 61 times of trough concentrations in the early group, 24 patients enrolled and 33 times of trough concentrations in the middle group, and 28 patients enrolled and 40 times of trough concentrations in the late group. There was no significant difference in gender, age, body weight, serum creatinine, creatinine clearance (CCr), albumin, APACHE Ⅱ score among the three groups. There was significantly difference in the duration from the onset time to vancomycin administration between early, middle groups and late group (days:15.9±3.2, 23.3±2.2 vs. 35.0±6.7, both P < 0.05). The positive liquid balance in early group was lower than that of late group (mL: 1565.2±3132.1 vs. 3675.1±3411.5, P < 0.01), while it was increased in the middle group as compared with that of late group (mL: 5078.7±3892.4 vs. 3675.1±3411.5, P < 0.05). The average daily dose of vancomycin in the early, middle and late groups were (14.7±5.0), (15.0±2.8), (17.0±4.2) mg/kg, respectively, and there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). Compared with the standard concentration (15 mg/L) of vancomycin, the serum trough concentration of vancomycin was significantly reduced in SAP patients [(7.5±4.3) mg/L, P < 0.01]. Apparent volume of distribution (Vd) was (72.4±15.4) L, and clearance rate (CL) was (9.0±2.8) L/h. According to the Bayesian, the serum trough concentration of vancomycin was significantly reduced in early group and middle group compared with late group (mg/L: 5.0±2.1, 7.3±2.5 vs. 11.5±5.1, both P < 0.01), CL was significantly increased (L/h: 10.5±3.0, 8.1±1.9 vs. 7.4±1.9, both P < 0.05), and Vd was significantly increased in early group compared with late group (L: 73.7±15.5 vs. 71.0±12.6, P < 0.05). It was shown by multiple linear regression analysis that there was strong relationship between serum trough concentration and the serum creatinine, CCr, average daily dose and the starting time of vancomycin treatment (r value were 0.449, -0.318, 0.373, 0.763, respectively, all P < 0.05). Conclusions The serum trough concentration of vancomycin was significantly reduced in SAP patients. And the earlier usage of vancomycin, the lower of the trough concentration is. Therefore, higher dosage regimen was needed to ensure the clinical effect, and reduce the bacterial resistance.

Objective To evaluate the serum trough concentration and the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD)of vancomycin in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), and analyze the effect of vancomycin continuous infusion for optimizing the characteristics of its PK/PD.Methods The inhospital patients with SAP received vancomycin treatment and admitted to emergency intensive care unit (EICU) of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from January 2011 to December 2016 were enrolled. Steady-state trough concentrations of vancomycin from patients were collected retrospectively. The SAP patients were divided into augmented renal clearance (ARC) and non-ARC groups, as well as systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and non-SIRS groups according to the patients with or without symptom above. Adjustments of increased dosage or 24-hour continuous infusion or increase vancomycin dose were made for patients if the steady-state trough concentrations fell below the target level. Steady state trough concentration for vancomycin intermittent infusion or steady state concentration for vancomycin continuous infusion was determined by the fluorescence polarization immunoassay method. PK parameters of vancomycin were calculated using the Bayesian estimator and the area under the serum drug concentration-time curve (AUCc-t), the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and AUCc-t/MIC was recorded and calculated.Results The steady state trough concentration or steady state concentration from 61 patients with SAP were collected with mean steady state trough concentration of vancomycin of (7.7±4.4) mg/L, which was significantly lower than standard concentration (15 mg/L,P < 0.001). Apparent volume of distribution (Vd) and clearance of vancomycin was (1.06±0.26) L/kg and (8.9±2.8) L/h. The serum steady state trough concentration of vancomycin in ARC group (n = 33) was significantly lower than that in non-ARC group (n = 28; mg/L: 6.7±3.5 vs. 8.2±4.1, P < 0.01), clearance was significantly increased (L/h: 9.8±2.9 vs. 7.7±2.2,P < 0.01). Compared with non-SIRS group (n = 31), the serum steady state trough concentration of vancomycin in SIRS group (n= 30) was significantly lowered (mg/L: 6.1±3.2 vs. 13.0±4.2,P < 0.01), and clearance was significantly increased (L/h: 9.4±2.0 vs. 7.1±2.1,P < 0.05). Compared with the only increasing vancomycin dose group (n = 29), vancomycin continuous infusion for 24 hours (n = 21) could significantly reduce daily dosage (mg/kg: 13.6±3.9 vs. 19.1±3.5,P < 0.01), increase the serum trough concentration (mg/L: 18.1±7.0 vs. 12.6±5.3,P < 0.01), and improve the AUCc-t/MIC.Conclusions The serum trough concentration of vancomycin was significantly reduced in SAP patients with ARC. The more serious of the SIRS is, the lower the vancomycin trough concentration is. Vancomycin 24-hour continuous infusion could optimize the PK/PD parameters, decrease the daily dose, increase the clinical effect, and reduce the bacterial resistance.

Methods From June 2016 to July 2016, this study selected 80 breast cancer patients at initial diagnosis by and with surgery in a Class Ⅲ Grade A cancer hospital of Guangzhou as subjects by pathobiology with the method of convenience sampling. The symptom distress was investigated with the M.D.Anderson symptom inventory (MDASI) before, three months, six months and one year after surgery. Results The scores of symptom sub-scale of breast cancer patients before, three months, six months and one year after surgery were (1.23±1.04), (3.20±1.54), (3.09±1.27) and (1.10±0.69) respectively with statistical differences (F=97.70,P < 0.01). The scores of distress sub-scale of breast cancer patients before, three months, six months and one year after surgery were (1.49±1.63), (4.24±2.30), (3.08±1.86) and (0.98±0.89) respectively with statistical differences (F=89.01,P < 0.01). The level of symptom distress of breast cancer patients was the highest three months after surgery and decreased gradually after that, and was lower one year after surgery than that before surgery. Conclusions Breast cancer patients had the mild to moderate levels of symptom distress from preoperation to one year after surgery. The level of symptom distress of patients is the highest three months after surgery and decreases gradually after that, and is lower one year after surgery than that before surgery. Patients are with varying degrees of symptom distress in each period which points out that we should provide targeted management for adverse reactions caused by disease or treatments at different periods.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatments of patients with POEMS syndrome initially diagnosed as pulmonary hypertension (PH).Methods:Clinical data of 7 patients who were initially diagnosed as PH and finally diagnosed as POEMS syndrome in Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital from May 2013 to November 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, echocardiography, hemodynamic findings, treatment and prognosis of patients were analyzed.Results:Seven patients, including 4 males and 3 female, aged (55±9) (44-62) years were presented with elevated pulmonary artery pressure by echocardiography at admission. Chest tightness and shortness of breath (7/7), fatigue (6/7) and lower limb edema (4/7) were the most common symptoms in the first-episode. Meanwhile, patients also presented symptoms associated with POEMS syndrome, including multiple peripheral neuropathy (7/7), multiserosal cavity effusion (6/7), organomegaly (5/7), skin changes (5/7), and endocrine lesions (4/7). Serum levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were significantly increased in all patients. The pulmonary arterial systolic blood pressure was (66±21)mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) estimated by echocardiography. Six patients underwent right heart catheterization and significantly increased mean pulmonary artery pressure((35±9) mmHg) was confirmed; and their pulmonary vascular resistance was (4.00±2.10) Wood U. All patients received corresponding treatment for POEMS syndrome. The excise tolerance was improved in 5 patients after successful treatment with stable or reversed WHO functional class. One patient received hemodialysis treatment for uncontrolled POEMS. One patient died during follow-up. The echocardiography was followed up in 4 patients, and 2 of whom had a complete reversal of PH, 1 had a partial reversal, and 1 had not yet reversed.Conclusions:In patients with PH who have multisystem manifestations, such as multiple peripheral neuropathy, multiserosal cavity effusion, organomegaly and skin changes, POEMS syndrome should be considered, and proper and active treatment of POEMS may reverse PH and improve the prognosis of patients.
