Objective:To investigate the role of clinical pharmacists in the anti-infective treatment of one patient with complexity urinary tract infection with septic shock induced by cellulitis. Methods:Clinical pharmacists participated in one case of complexity uri-nary tract infection with septic shock induced by cellulitis, and according to the clinical curative effect and the patient' s condition change, clinical pharmacists adjusted the medication nine times and provided individualized pharmaceutical care and service in the whole process. Results:Physician accepted the suggestions of clinical pharmacists, the infection was controlled after the 38-day treat-ment, and then the patient was discharged from the hospital. Conclusion:Clinical pharmacists should participate in the clinical treat-ment, provide whole process of pharmaceutical care for severe patients and assist physician in drug treatment decisions to promote safe, effective and economical drug use.

Objective To compare the different ways of alkaline mouthwash slobber use in preventing the oral infection in patients with fever. Methods The patients who satisfied the requirements were involved and randomly divided into A, B and C group. A group did not use alkaline mouthwash; B group prescribed alkaline mouthwash slobber following the doctor's advice; C group received propaganda and demonstration of intensive use of the alkaline mouthwash, and then used the slobber in right way under the surveillance of nurses. The infection rates of oral ulcer and oral leukoplakia were compared and analyzed among the three groups. Results The incidence rates of oral ulcer and oral leukoplakia gradually decreased among the three groups and the differences had statistical significance (χ2=9.243,P=0.010;χ2=6.495,P=0.033).Compared with A group, there was no significant differences in the rates of oral ulcers and oral leukoplakia between Group A and B(OR=0.486, 95%CI:0.113-2.087;OR=0.557, 95%CI: 0.120-2.583), but the incidence rates of oral ulcers and oral leukoplakia gradually decreased(OR=0.024, 95%CI:0.002-0.293;OR=0.036, 95%CI:0.003-0.448)in C group. Conclusions Strengthening use of alkaline mouthwash slobber is more effective in preventing oral infection in patients with fever compared with the routine way of mouthwash use.

Objective To explore the application of nanodisc in functional and drug discovery research of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR).Methods The purified recombinant 5-Hydroxytryptamine 2B receptor (5-HT2BR) was reconstituted into nanodisc complex.Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and size exclution chromatography were performed to evaluate the reconstitution reaction,followed by the use of surface plasmon resonance to validate the ligand-binding activity of 5-HT2BR after reconstitution.Results 5-HT2B R was effectively self-assembled into nanodisc while maintained its binding activity toward the antagonist SB204741.Conclusions The presented study provided potential application of 5-HT2B R-nanodisc for the development of subtype-selective drugs against 5-HT2B R and the fundamental of utilizing nanodisc for GPCR structural and functional studies as well as drug discovery.

Objective:To analyze the types of genetic variants and clinical characteristics of three Chinese pedigrees affected with Hereditary coagulation factor Ⅶ (FⅦ) deficiency.Methods:Three pedigrees who had visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between December 2021 and October 2022 were selected as the study subjects. Prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and FⅦ activity (FⅦ: C) were measured in the three probands and their pedigree members. All exons and their flanking sequences were analyzed by direct sequencing, and candidate variants were verified by reverse sequencing. The corresponding variant loci in the family members were also analyzed. ClustalX-2.1-win was used to analyze the conservation of the variant loci. Varcards and Spcards online software was used to predict the pathogenicity of the variants. Pymol software was used to analyze the changes in protein structure and molecular forces.Results:Three cases of hereditary FⅦ deficiency were found to have decreased FⅦ: C, prolonged PT and normal APTT. Genetic analysis identified a total of four genetic variants, and all three probands had harbored compound heterozygous variants of the F7 gene, including p. Cys389Gly and p. His408Gln in proband 1, p. Cys389Gly and IVS6+ 1G>T in proband 2, and IVS6+ 1G>T and IVS1a+ 5G>A in proband 3. Conservation analysis showed that both the p. Cys389 and p. His408 loci are highly conserved among orthologous species. Analysis with Varcards and Spcards software showed that these variants were pathogenic. Protein modeling analysis showed that the p. Cys389Gly and p. His408Gln variants may result in altered protein structures and changes in hydrogen bonds. Conclusion:The clinical manifestations of the three FⅦ-deficient probands may be attributed to the compound heterozygous variants of p. Cys389Gly/p.His408Gln, p. Cys389Gly/ⅠⅤS6+ 1G>T and ⅠⅤS6+ 1G>T/ⅠⅤS1a+ 5G>A of the F7 gene. The combination of the three compound heterozygous variants was unreported previously.

A 34 year old female patient was scheduled to undergo surgical resection due to a "breast nodule". Preoperative examination revealed an activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) of 66.2 seconds, coagulation factor Ⅺ activity (FⅪ: C) of 2%, and FⅪ antigen (FⅪ: Ag) of 40.3%. The patient and family members showed no abnormal bleeding symptoms. Diagnosed as hereditary coagulation factor Ⅺ deficiency. Genetic testing revealed that the F11 gene had a heterozygous nonsense mutation in exon 10, c.1107C>A (p.Tyr351stop), and a heterozygous missense mutation in exon 13, c.1562A>G (p.Tyr503Cys). The father and son were p Heterozygous carriers of Tyr351stop mutation, while the mother and daughter are p Heterozygous carriers of Tyr503Cys mutations. The in vitro expression results showed that p The Tyr351stop mutation resulted in a significant decrease in the transcription level of F11 gene, while p The Tyr503Cys mutation has no effect on the transcription level and protein expression level of F11 gene, but it leads to a significant decrease in the level of FⅪ:C in the cell culture supernatant.
