China Pharmacist 2015;(3):456-458
Objective:To establish the methods and standard for the evaluation of rational application of parenteral nutrition ( PN) in primary hospitals. Methods:Medical records with the use of fat emulsion, amino acids (17) and glucose (11%) injection were col-lected. The integrity of the medical records was analyzed, the compatibility of supplementary drugs was evaluated, and basal metabo-lism rate(BMR) was calculated for the relevant assessment. Results:Totally 66. 7% of the patients had incomplete basic parameters of nutritional risk assessment, the cases had different course of treatment but showed no significant difference in total usage of fat emul-sion, amino acids (17) and glucose (11%) injection,and the non-protein calories of fat emulsion, amino acids (17) and glucose (11%) injection accounted for 72. 1% of basal metabolism rate of an individual on average (S=8. 9). Supplementary usage of KCl accounted for 63. 0% of the cases, of which 70. 6% were overdosed;62. 9% of the cases used supplementary alanyl-glutamine with overdosage. Conclusion:In the PN application in our hospital, nutritional risk assessment is basically missed, and there is a great gap between the level of developing reasonable individual program and the requirements in guidelines. Clinical pharmacists should enhance the related monitoring and evaluation in PN application.

5.The laboratory diagnosis of thalassemia:selection and evaluation of tests and methods
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2012;35(5):385-389
The incidence of α-thalassemia and β-thalassemia is high in Guangxi,Guangdong,Sichuan and other province in China.Because no effective approach to thalassemia treatment could be used clinically now,the most cost-effective strategy to control this disease is to prevent the birth of babies with severe form of thalassemia.It is important to make effective screening and correct diagnosis of thalassemia by laboratory test.Laboratory diagnosis of thalassemia includes routine diagnosis and genetic diagnosis.The laboratory routine tests are some hematology examination,comprising red blood cell indices,erythrocyte osmotic fragility test,hemoglobin analysis,and others.Anyone alone of these laboratory parameters can not be used to diagnose the carrier of thalassemia.It is necessary to combine these tests to make screening diagnosis.The final diagnosis of thalassemia need to perform the gene mutation examination or globin train analysis.Technologies for gene mutation detection have been the main and gold standand method of diagnosing thalassemia now.

China Pharmacy 2017;28(7):909-912
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of Compound Ligusticum chuanxiong drop pill on hemorheology and blood gas in model rats with diabetic nephropathy(DN). METHODS:60 rats were randomly divided into normal control group,model group, positive control group [Irbesartan tablet,0.013 g/(kg·d)] and Compound L. chuanxiong drop pill high-dose,medium-dose,low-dose groups [0.4,0.2,0.1 g/(kg·d)],10 in each group. Except for normal control group,rats in other groups were given high-sugar high-fat feed and intraperitoneally injected streptozotocin to reduce DN model. After 7 d modeling,rats in each group received relat-ed drugs intragastrically,once a day,10 mL/kg;normal control group and model group received equal volume of purified water in-tragastrically. After 64 d,hemorheology indicators [whole blood viscosity(high-shear,medium-shear and low-shear),plasma viscosi-ty,whole blood reduced viscosity] and blood gas indicators(carbon dioxide partial pressure,oxygen partial pressure,hemoglobin content,oxygen saturation,ratio of oxygenated hemoglobin to total protein) of rats were determined,hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathological changes in kidney tissue. RESULTS:Compared with normal control group,hemorheology indi-cators and carbon dioxide partial pressure in model group were significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),oxygen partial pres-sure,hemoglobin content,oxygen saturation,ratio of oxygenated hemoglobin to total protein were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),with severe kidney damage. Compared with model group,except the improvement of carbon dioxide partial pressure, oxygen partial pressure,hemoglobin content in rats were not significant in Compound L. chuanxiong drop pill low-dose group,the above-mentioned indicators in other medicine groups were significantly improved(P<0.05 or P<0.01);the kidney tissue damage was improved to varying degree. CONCLUSIONS:Compound L. chuanxiong drop pill can significantly improve the hemorheology indicators of DN model rats,reduce blood viscosity,improve microcirculation and capacity of the blood to transport oxygen,and has certain improvement effect on kidney tissue morphology of DN rats.
8.Postoperative management and risk stratification of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma
Chinese Journal of Endocrine Surgery 2016;10(4):265-268
The postoperative management of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) is one of the most important parts of management for PTMC,and it includes the initial management and long-term management of PTMC.The initial management of thyroid cancer is based on initial recurrence risk stratification system.The initial risk stratification system can be used to guide initial TSH suppression therapy,RAI assistant therapy and management of follow up.Initial risk assessment of recurrence,as a static representation of the patient in the first few weeks post-operatively,could not be continually updated during follow up.In order to account for the changes of the recurrence risk and disease specific mortality,re-stratification of risk should be performed during follow up,using all the clinical,biochemical,imaging (structural and functional),and cytopathologic findings obtained during follow up.Re-stratification of risk can inform clinicians on degree of ongoing TSH suppression,frequency and intensity of follow-up,and need for additional therapies were recommended in guideline.Adjustment of TSH suppression therapy should incorporate the impact of side effects and set TSH targets to ensure the benefits of TSH suppression outweigh against the potential risks.

10.Early evaluation of paraquat plasma concentration and urine sodium dithionite assay for prognosis in patients ;with acute paraquat poisoning
Chinese Critical Care Medicine 2016;28(10):886-890
Objective To explore early prognostic value of quantitative detection of paraquat (PQ) plasma concentration and urine sodium dithionite assay for prognosis in patients with acute PQ poisoning. Methods A prospective study was conducted. The patients with acute PQ poisoning admitted to Department of Emergency of First Hospital of China Medical University from August 2013 to December 2015 were enrolled. At admission, blood samples and urine samples were collected. The PQ plasma concentration was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the PQ urine concentration was determined by sodium dithionite, meanwhile the biochemical parameters were determined to carry out sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score. According to the prognosis of 90-day follow-up, the patients were divided into survival group and death group. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between the prognosis and the indexes, and the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was drawn to evaluate the prognosis. Results There were 148 patients with acute PQ poisoning, with 43 alive and 105 dead, and the 90-day mortality rate was 70.9%. The ingestion volume (mL: 22.69±18.57 vs. 9.91±4.61), plasma concentration of PQ (mg/L: 2.28±1.52 vs. 0.91±0.38) and positive rate of urine sodium dithionite (87.6% vs. 14.0%) in death group were significantly higher than those of survived group (all P < 0.01), but no significant differences in gender, age, poisoning time, gastric lavage time between the two groups were found. Significant differences in white blood cell count [WBC (×109/L): 13.45±6.12 vs. 23.03±7.67] and blood lactate [Lac (mmol/L): 1.50±0.45 vs. 8.10±4.51] between survival group and death group were found (both P < 0.01), while no significant difference in SOFA score was found (0.98±0.72 vs. 1.34±1.29, P > 0.05). It was shown by logistic regression analysis that the key factors affecting the prognosis of patients with PQ poisoning were urine sodium dithionite assay [odds ratio (OR) = 8.731, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 2.828-26.954, P = 0.000], PQ plasma concentration (OR = 2.082, 95%CI = 1.204-3.603, P = 0.009) and ingestion volume (OR = 1.175, 95%CI = 1.048-1.318, P = 0.006) respectively. It was shown by ROC curve that the area under ROC curve (AUC) of plasma PQ concentration, urine sodium dithionite assay, poisoning dose and SOFA score for predicting the prognosis in patients with acute PQ poisoning was 0.866, 0.857, 0.826, and 0.631 respectively (all P < 0.05). The sensitivity of urine sodium dithionite assay for predicting the prognosis was 87.6%, and the specificity was 83.7%. Conclusions Early plasma PQ concentrations can objectively reflect the body absorbed toxicant doses and actual situation after poisoning, and help to judge the early evaluation of prognosis. The accuracy of urine sodium dithionite assay in judging the prognosis of PQ poisoning is high. Because of its simplicity and availability, it was easier to be performed in the primary hospital.
