OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational use of narcotics drugs in the clinic. METHODS:A total of 5 841 prescriptions of narcotic drugs in our hospital from Jan. 2012 to Dec. 2013 were selected as subjects. The utilization of drugs was an-alyzed statistically using DDDs,DDC and DUI as index. The situation of pharmacists prescriptions dispensing was analyzed with missing rate of unqualified prescriptions as an indicator. RESULTS:7 narcotics drugs DUI≤1.00 in 2012. 9 narcotics drugs DUIs≤1.00 in 2013. The highest missing rate of unqualified prescriptions was 9.33% in the inpatient pharmacy in 2013. The amount and DDDs of Morphine hydrochloride injection,Morphine sulfate sustained-release tablet and Oxycodone sustained-release tablet all in-creased in 2013,compared to in 2012;DUI of all morphine preparation were >1.00. DUI of Codeine phosphate tablet and Bucin-nazine tablet were decreased from 1.64 and 1.11 in 2012 to 1.02 and 0.74 in 2013,tending to be reasonable. The amount and DDDs of Sulfentanyl injection,Remifentanil injection and Fentanyl patch all in 2013,compared to in 2012. CONCLUSIONS:The utilization of narcotics drugs in our hospital basically tend to be rational,but still many deficiencies exist. We should strengthen in-tervention and management on the the utilization of narcotic drugs further.

The geriatric population tends to increase, worldwidely, and the same in orthopedic fields. In this age group, senile changes, both physical and mental, appear. In addition, psychiatric problems due to retirement from the job and changes of the role in his society and in the family, are included. The geriatric orthopedics is peculiar and its importance is increasing, which makes great demands on both medical and surgical skills as well as an enthusiastic teamwork. Fifty six patients over the age of 70, who were admitted and treated at the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Seoul National University Hospital, between 1986 to 1987, were analysed. The results were as follows. 1. Thirth four patiens were female and twenty two were male. 2. The fracture was the most common cause, and degenerative arthritis, tumor are the next causes. 3. Operation was performed in 38 cases. 4. The associated diseases were hypertension, diabetes, U.T.I., renal failure, poor sight, pulmonary and cardiovascular diseases, which were more common than other age group. 5. Intra or postoperative complications were hypertension, liver function abnormalities, renal and respiratory failures and et al., which were also more common. 6. Old age is a major risk factor for surgery, but is not a contraindication, so careful evaluation and managements are needed, which can be done by specialized geriatric orthopedic team.

To study thyroid hormone receptor β(THRβ)gene mutation in a pituitary-resistance to thyroid hormone syndrome family. The peripheral blood samples of the patient, his sister, parents, and 4 maternal relatives were collected. Then serum was isolated for detecting thyroid hormone levels with chemiluminescence immunoassay, and DNA was extracted for PCR, and 10 exons of THRβ gene were sequenced. The patient and his mother had the hyperthyroid symptom for many years and his mother with atrial fibrillation. The G→A heterozygous transition mutation was confirmed by exon sequencing at nucleotide 949 within exon 9 of THRβ gene in the patient and his mother, which was a missense mutation causing a substitution of Alanine to Threonine(A317T). No mutation was found in THRβ gene in other family members. This is the first Chinese family reported with pituitary thyroid hormone resistance syndrome caused by a A317T mutation in the thyroid hormone receptor β gene.

Allergic diseases such as allergic asthma, allergic der-matitis, allergic rhinitis, are polygenic diseases, involving the interaction between the environment, genes and immunity. In the past few decades, the incidence rate of allergic diseases in-creased predominantly and influenced the quality of people's lives seriously, so looking for new targets for the prevention and treat-ment of allergic diseases and drugs with less adverse reaction be-comes a hot topic for researchers. MicroRNAs(miRNAs)are a class of endogenous non-coding small RNAs that mediate nega-tively posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression by targe-ting specific mRNA sequences to inhibit the translation of mR-NAs. They are widely involved in the biological processes of cell differentiation, immune response and tumor development. The study shows that miRNAs can control the occurrence and devel-opment of allergic diseases. Studying the regulatory role of miR-NAs in allergic diseases has important implications for exploring the immunopathological mechanisms and discovering new thera-peutic targets of drugs.
