OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effects of quality control circle(QCC)in improving the compliance of asthma/COPD outpatients handling inhaler devices. METHODS:By simple random sampling method,90 asthma/COPD outpatients receiving Tiotropium bromide powder for inhalantion,Salmeterol xinafoate and fluticasone propionate powder for inhalantion and Budesonide and formoterol fumarate powder for inhalantion were selected from our hospital during Apr. to Nov. 2015. The reasons for poor com-pliance of handling inhaler devices were analyzed by QCC. The countermeasures were formulated to improve the compliance,in-cluding clinical pharmacist education,follow-up,issuing education manuals,developing WeChat consulting. Operation step score of inhaler devices,compliance score and activity ability score of QCC members were analyzed statistically before and after QCC. RESULTS:After the development of QCC,operation step score of inhaler devices and compliance score in 90 asthma/COPD outpa-tients increased from 7.7 and 7.7 before activity to 8.8 and 9.3 after activity,the achievable rate of compliance was 114.3%,and the improvement rate was 20.8%. The sense of honor,responsibility,self-confidence,QCC techniques,communication and coordi-nation,team cohesion of all members were all improved obviously. CONCLUSIONS:QCC activity improves the compliance of asthma/COPD outpatients handling inhaler devices and shows the professional service level of clinical pharmacists,which is of sig-nificance to the improvement of pharmaceutical care.

Objective:To study the effect of crizotinib on acute radiation-induced lung injury in mice and its possible mechanism.Methods:A total of 72 mice were randomly divided into 4 groups by the random number table method: healthy control group (NC group, n=12), crizotinib-only group (CRZ group, n=12), radiotherapy-only group (RT group, n=24), and radiotherapy pluscrizotinib group (RT+ CRZ group, n=24). The whole lungs were exposed to a single dose of 12 Gy X-rays. Lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were obtained at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks after radiotherapy. The total number of nucleated cells was counted under a light microscope, and the total protein content of BALF was detected by bicinchoninic acid (BCA) protein assay. The pathological changes of lung tissue were observed by HE staining and MASSON staining. The expressions of TGF-β1 and ICAM-1 mRNA in lung tissue were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), the locations and expressions of MPO and ICAM-1 proteins were observed by immunohistochemical staining, and the expressions of TGF-β1, Smad3, p-Smad3 and ICAM-1 proteins in lung tissue were detected by Western blot. Results:At different time points after irradiation, the pathological manifestations such as inflammation and exudation of lung tissue in the RT+ CRZ group were significantly increased, and the total number of cells and protein content in BALF was higher than that of the other three groups, compared with RT group, the difference was statistically significant at 4 week ( t=-5.031, -2.814, P<0.05). Compared with RT group, the expressions of ICAM-1 and TGF-β1 mRNA in lung tissue of the RT+ CRZ group were significantly increased, while the expression of TGF-β1 increased significantly at 1, 4 and 8 weeks after irradiation ( t=-2.687, -7.032, -5.221, P<0.05), and the expression of ICAM-1 increased significantly at 2 and 4 weeks after irradiation ( t=-4.819, -6.057, P<0.05). The expressions of these two gradually increased from 1 to 4 weeks and peaked in 4 weeks, then decreased at 8 weeks. At the same time, the trend of the expression of MPO mRNA was consistent with ICAM-1 and TGF-β1. At 4 week, there was no difference in the expression of Smad3 protein in these four groups ( P>0.05). The expressions of TGF-β1, p-Smad3, ICAM-1 and p-Smad3/Smad3 proteins of the RT+ CRZ group were all higher than those of the other three groups ( F=14.74, 10.03, 35.29, 22.94, P<0.05). Conclusions:Crizotinib combined with radiotherapy can aggravate acute radiation-induced lung injury, which may due to the increase of ICAM-1 expression by up-regulating the TGF-β1 signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the effectiveness of O-arm navigation and C-arm navigation for guiding percutaneous long sacroiliac screws in treatment of Denis type Ⅱ sacral fractures. METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted on clinical data of the 46 patients with Denis type Ⅱ sacral fractures between April 2021 and October 2022. Among them, 19 patients underwent O-arm navigation assisted percutaneous long sacroiliac screw fixation (O-arm navigation group), and 27 patients underwent C-arm navigation assisted percutaneous long sacroiliac screw fixation (C-arm navigation group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, causes of injuries, Tile classification of pelvic fractures, combined injury, the interval from injury to operation between the two groups ( P>0.05). The intraoperative preparation time, the placement time of each screw, the fluoroscopy time of each screw during placement, screw position accuracy, the quality of fracture reduction, and fracture healing time were recorded and compared, postoperative complications were observed. Pelvic function was evaluated by Majeed score at last follow-up. RESULTS: All operations were completed successfully, and all incisions healed by first intention. Compared to the C-arm navigation group, the O-arm navigation group had shorter intraoperative preparation time, placement time of each screw, and fluoroscopy time, with significant differences ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in screw position accuracy and the quality of fracture reduction ( P>0.05). There was no nerve or vascular injury during screw placed in the two groups. All patients in both groups were followed up, with the follow-up time of 6-21 months (mean, 12.0 months). Imaging re-examination showed that both groups achieved bony healing, and there was no significant difference in fracture healing time between the two groups ( P>0.05). During follow-up, there was no postoperative complications, such as screw loosening and breaking or loss of fracture reduction. At last follow-up, there was no significant difference in pelvic function between the two groups ( P>0.05). CONCLUSION Compared with the C-arm navigation, the O-arm navigation assisted percutaneous long sacroiliac screws for the treatment of Denis typeⅡsacral fractures can significantly shorten the intraoperative preparation time, screw placement time, and fluoroscopy time, improve the accuracy of screw placement, and obtain clearer navigation images.

As one of the most lethal diseases, pancreatic cancer shows a dismal overall prognosis and high resistance to most treatment modalities. Furthermore, pancreatic cancer escapes early detection during the curable period because early symptoms rarely emerge and specific markers for this disease have not been found. Although combinations of new drugs, multimodal therapies, and adjuvants prolong survival, most patients still relapse after surgery and eventually die. Consequently, the search for more effective treatments for pancreatic cancer is highly relevant and justified. As a newly re-discovered mediator of gasotransmission, hydrogen sulfide (H
