OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for promoting the further development of pharmaceutical service in chain phar-macies and the regulation of related departments. METHODS:Field investigation and questionnaire survey were used to investigate the basic situation of pharmaceutical care in 5 chain pharmacies in Chengdu city and analyze the results. RESULTS:In terms of core service,it showed that 2 pharmacies had no suspension of pharmacists license and the pharmacist was not on-the-job;there was significant difference in the medication guidance frequency of pharmacists in those pharmacies(P<0.05);more than 50% sur-veyed consumers received medication guidance when buying drugs in pharmacy B,C and E. In terms of perceived service,3 phar-macies existed illegal drug advertising and 3 existed illegal promotion;drug partitions of all pharmacies were good;service archive material showed best in pharmacy C and worst in pharmacy D;in service advisory zone setting,setting of independent advisory zone was worse. In terms of extended service,5 pharmacies had different preferential ways for memberships except for the prefer-ence in membership day;the unbundling service in those pharmacies was worse,and no pharmacies had no less than 10 unbun-dling varieties. CONCLUSIONS:Pharmaceutical service in chain pharmacies in Chengdu city is barely satisfactory. Pharmacy should strengthen the assessment and management of pharmacists and improve pharmaceutical service,and regulatory authorities strengthen the supervision of advertising and promotion of drugs. What’s more,it is suggested to establish cloud supervision plat-form with the internet information technology,carry out remote service and cloud service and strengthen brand marketing service on the internet to improve the pharmaceutical service levels in chain pharmacies.

Objective:To investigate the infarct size and its related factors in patients with anterior choroidal artery (AchA) territory infarction.Methods:From April 2016 to April 2018, consecutive patients with acute AchA territory infarction hospitalized in the Department of Neurology, the Affiliated Shuyang Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were enrolled retrospectively. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) was used to assess the severity of the disease at baseline, and the Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (DWI) was used to determine the side, location, size, and morphology of the infarct lesions. The patients were divided into small infarction group (<20 mm) and large infarction group (≥20 mm). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for infarct size. Results:A total of 100 consecutive patients with acute AchA territory infarction were enrolled, including 86 (86.0%) in small infarction group, 14 (14.0%) in large infarction group. Based on the NIHSS score, there were 89 patients with mild stroke, 9 with moderate stroke, and 2 with severe stroke. According to DWI, 69 patients (69.0%) had long cord-like infarcts and 31 (31.0%) had other shapes of infarcts. The baseline NIHSS score (7.0 [2.0-10.5] vs. 3.0 [2.0-4.0]; Z=2.353, P=0.019) and the proportion of patients with severe stroke (14.3% vs. 0%; P=0.018), the infarcts in posterior part of periventricular area (85.7% vs. 57.0%; χ2=4.180, P=0.041) and medial globus pallidus (21.4% vs. 4.7%; χ2=5.206, P=0.023), and cord-like infarction (92.9% vs. 65.1%; χ2=4.332, P=0.037) in patients of the large infarction group were significantly higher than those of the small infarction group; leukocyte count (7.7±1.7×10 9/L vs. 6.6±1.8×10 9/L; t=2.214, P=0.036) and platelet count (234.5±39.5×10 9/L vs. 198.0±49.4×10 9/L; t=2.618, P=0.010) were significantly higher than those of the small infarction group; the proportion of patients with sensory impairment was significantly higher than that of the small infarction group (50.0% vs. 24.4%; χ2=3.908, P=0.048). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that platelet count (odds ratio 1.018, 95% confidence interval 1.000-1.621; P=0.044) and stroke severity (odds ratio 18.245, 95% confidence interval 1.534-217.052; P=0.022) were significantly and positively correlated with the infarct size. Conclusion:The related factors of the infarct size in patients with AchA territory infarction included sensory impairment, baseline NIHSS score, stroke severity, morphology and location of infarct lesions, and leukocyte and platelet counts, of which platelet count and stroke severity were independently positively correlated with the infarct size.

Objective To investigate the value of heparin-binding protein(HBP) in predicting urosepsis after endoscopic lithotripsy for upper urinary tract stones.Methods From January to November 2018,635 cases of upper urinary tract stones treated by endoscopic lithotripsy in our hospital was analyzed.According to the 2014 edition Chinese Guidelines of the diagnosis and treatment of urosepsis,all patients were divided into two groups,the definite urosepsis group (n =53,8.3％) and the no urosepsis group (n =582,91.7％).The serum of HBP level was detected by fluorescence immunoassay technology.The serum of procalcitonin (PCT) level was detected by cyclic enhanced immunofluorescent assay.C-reactive protein (CRP) level was detected by automatic chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer.White blood cells (WBC) count was performed by hematology analyzer.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curves were constructed by SPSS 22 and MedCale,and areas under curves (AUC) were calculated and compared to illustrate the diagnostic power of HBP,PCT,CRP and WBC.The correlation between HBP and WBC was also significant (r =0.68,P ＜ 0.05).Results The level of HBP,PCT,CRP and WBC were significantly higher in the definite urosepsis group compared to the no urosepsis group.AUC of HBP,PCT,CRP and WBC were 0.930,0.878,0.727 and 0.617.When the cutoff of HBP,PCT,CRP and WBC were set as 51.5 ng/ml,0.41 ng/ml,64.2 mg/L and 11.7 × 109/L,the sensitivities were 89.2％,83.3％,83.5％ and 44.7％,and the specificity were 95.9％,75.6％,64.3％ and 77.1％,respectively.Conclusions The value of heparin-binding protein was superior to that of PCT,CRP and WBC in predicting urosepsis after endoscopic lithotripsy for upper urinary tract stones.Heparin-binding protein could be acted as a diagnostic marker for urosepsis.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of Nocardiarubra cell wall skeleton (N-CWS) bladder irrigation in prevention of recurrence after transurethral resection for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).Methods The clinical data of patients with NMIBC treated by N-CWS and epirubicin collected between October 2013 and November 2018 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed.All patients underwent TURBT.Among the 118 NMIBC patients,the average age was (65.1 ± 1 1.9) years,and the sex ratio (male/female) was 1.9∶1 (77/41).Patients were divided into two group:N-CWS group (n =55) and epirubicin group (n =63) according to different instillation regimens.N-CWS was given as an instillation of 800 μg in 50 ml of saline and maintained in the bladder for 2 h in the N-CWS group.Epirubicin was given as an instillation of 50 mg in 50 ml of saline and maintained in the bladder for 1 h in the epirubicin group.In the N-CWS group,mean agewas (64.9 ± 12.1) years and 37 (67.3％) were male.Multiple tumors were present in 17 (69.1％) patients.Tumor size was ≤3 cm in 49(89.1％) and 7(12.7％) had a history of NMIBC.Stage was Ta and T1 in 36(65.5％) and 19(34.5％),respectively.Grade 1,Grade 2 and Grade 3 were the primary grades in 38(69.1％),13(23.6％) and 4(7.3％),respectively.Low risk,intermediate risk and high risk were present in 14 patients(25.5％),16 (29.1％) and 25 (45.5％),respectively.In the epirubicin group,mean age was (65.3 ± 11.2) years and 40(63.5％)were male.Multiple tumors were present in 19(30.2％) patients.Tumor size was ≤3 cm in 56(88.9％) and 11 (17.5％) had a history of NMIBC.Stage was Ta and T1 in 37(58.7％) and 26 (41.3％),respectively.Grade 1,Grade 2 and Grade 3 were the primary grades in 44(69.8％),12(19.0％)and 7(11.1％),respectively.Low risk,intermediate risk and high risk were present in 13 (20.6％),19 (30.2％) and 31 (49.2％),respectively.The tumor recurrence,progression and adverse reactions after Intravesical Instillation in both groups were followed up and recorded.No significant differences were found between the two groups.Results A total of 118 patients were followed up.Mean follow-up time was (33.7 ± 5.4) months.25.5％ (14/55) in the N-CWS group vs.42.8％ (27/63) in the epirubicin group had recurrence after 5 years (x2 =3.922,P =0.048).The five-year RFS was higher in the N-CWS group than in the epirubicin group (74.2％ vs.56.5％,P =0.044).No significant difference was found in the progression rate between the two groups(5.5％ vs.7.9％,P =0.867).The incidences of adverse events in the two groups were 16.4％ (9/55) and 19.0％ (12/63),respectively.The N-CWS group had significantly fewer cases with urinary frequency and dysuria than the epirubicin group.No significant differences were found in other side effects.Conclusions Intravesical instillation of N-CWS after NMIBC TURBT was found to be a promising procedure to prevent recurrence and prolong the recurrence-free survival with less side effects.

Objective To discuss the pathological and clinical characteristics,treatments and prognosis of schwannoma of the kidney.Methods Two cases of schwannoma of the kidney in our hospital were reviewed with clinicopathological data and their follow-up.The related literatures were reviewed.The first case was a male patient,28 years old,complained about paroxysmal abdominal pain with nausea over 2 weeks.The physical exam found a 10 cm,qualitative hard,poor activity,tenderness mass in kidney region.MRI preoperative diagnosis was right renal cell carcinoma with renal vein and inferior vena cava tumor thrombus formation.The second patient,female,53 years old,the mass on upper right kidney was found occasionally.It was diagnosed as adrenal pheochromocytoma before operation,laparoscopic resection of right renal hilum mass and right partial adrenectomy plus right nephrectomy were performed.There was no tumor recurrence in the follow-up.Results The abdominal aortography and double renal arteriography were done and right renal artery embolization and inferior vena cava filter were allocated.Then right radical nephrectomy and inferior vena cava tumor thrombus removal were carried out on the first patient.The first malignant and the second benign renal schwannoma patient showed significant difference in pathological presentations.Their immunohistochemistry also showed great diversity.Malignant renal schwannoma was significantly stained by Ki-67 ＞ 40％,S-100 was negative.Ki-67 in benign neurilemmomas was about 2％,and S-100 in benign renal schwannoma was positive.Conclusions Schwannoma of the kidney is rare with a favorable prognosis.The golden standard of diagnosis is pathology.Surgical resection has become the first choice for treatment.Recurrence and malignant transformation would happen after the surgery so that all the patients should be followed up.
