ABSTRACT:In order to explore the spatial clustering and influential factors of HFMD in Chongqing ,China from 2008 to 2012 ,spatial autocorrelation and spatial regression analysis (using the spatial lag model in this study ) were carried out using the HFMD data of 38 districts (counties) from 2008-2012 in Chongqing by OpenGeoDa ,and the HFMD case‐based data was collected from the Disease Supervision Information Management System of Chongqing Center for Disease Control and Preven‐tion .We found that the global Moran’s I coefficient of Chongqing from 2009 to 2012 was 0 .458 7 ,0 .567 5 ,0 .398 6 ,and 0 .606 0(P<0 .01) ,respectively ,indicating that the incidence of HFMD in Chongqing had a positive spatial correlation in this four years and a spatial clustering distribution was displayed .However ,no global spatial autocorrelation was founded in 2008 and the global Moran’s I coefficient was 0 .133 2 (P>0 .05) .Results of multi‐factor spatial lag regression analysis demonstra‐ted that the incidence of HFMD was positively related with urban rate (β=1 .667 6 , P=0 .001 6) ,and negatively correlated with medical technical personnel per thousand (β= -0 .000 2 ,P=0 .019 8) .In general ,the incidence of HFMD was found ge‐ographically clustered in Chongqing from 2009 to 2012 which was significantly influenced by urban rate and medical technical personnel per thousand population ,and while the urban rate was the main factor .

Objective To investigate the association between the glycated albumin to glycated hemoglobin (GA/A1c) ratio and carotid plaque. Methods Type 2 diabetic (T2DM) patients in endocrine inpatient department of Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital were chosen whose clinical data were collected. Results Of the recruited 154 T2DM patients , GA/HbA1c ratio was negatively correlated with BMI , blood uric acid and was positively correlated with age, HCY, FBG, PBG, left carotid IMT and right carotid IMT. In terms of carotid plaque, GA, GA/HbA1c ratio and HCY were higher in carotid plaque positive patients than those without carotid plaque. The results of logistic regression analysis showed that GA/HbA1c ratio was significantly associated with the presence of carotid plaque (P=0.008). Conclusions GA/HbA1c ratio was positively correlated with the presence of carotid artery IMT in T2DM This suggests that GA/HbA1c ratio will serve as a useful clinical marker for predicting diabetic cardiovascular complications.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the problem s and improvement measures in the application of automatic drug delivery system in outpatient pharmacy of our hospital ,and to provide reference for the construction of automatic drug delivery system in outpatient pharmacy. METHODS :Combined with the pharmacy module function of HIS system in our hospital and the actual needs of the pharmacist in drug delivery process ,the automatic delivery system of our hospital (including automatic delivery machine , prescription dispensing and delivery mode ,intelligent medicine basket )was established for operation and optimization. RESULTS : After six months of running period ,the hardware of the automatic dispensing machine had been stabilized ,and the software functions had been optimized ,including the mode of pre-dispensing ,drug storage ,system prompt ,quantity of dispensing , management of the drug period of validity ,and the mode of dispensing at the peak of drug taking. At the same time ,the emergency plan was formulated for automatic dispensing system. The application of the automatic dispensing machine shared 80% of pharmacists ’prescription dispensing on an average day ,saved labor cost (reduce the labor cost of about 2 pharmacists), shortened patients ’waiting time for drug-taking (down from 7.45 min to 6.61 min on average ,P<0.01),reduced prescription dispensing error rate (down from 0.040 9% to 0.019 5% on average ,P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS :The establishment of automatic drug delivery system in our hospital has reduced the workload of pharmacists ,improved the work efficiency ,decreased prescription dispensing error and promoted the quality of pharmaceutical care.

[摘 要] 目的:分析干扰素基因刺激因子(STING)在肺腺癌中的表达及其与肺腺癌患者临床特征间的关系,探讨STING与内质网应激的相关性及其在调控肺腺癌进展中的作用机制。方法:利用TIMER数据库分析STING基因在泛癌水平的表达情况,利用UALCAN和HPA数据库分析STING在肺腺癌组织中的表达及其与肺腺癌患者临床特征间的关系,利用Kaplan-Meier生存函数分析STING表达与肺腺癌患者OS率间的关系。利用LinkedOmics数据库对肺腺癌表达谱数据进行STING基因共表达分析,对STING相关差异表达基因(DEG)进行GO功能与KEGG通路富集分析,通过GSEA筛选STING调控肺腺癌的潜在通路。使用STING激动剂diABZI及内质网应激抑制剂TUDCA对肺腺癌A549与H460细胞进行处理,通过qPCR、WB法检测STING及内质网应激相关分子的表达,通过CCK-8法检测细胞增殖活力。结果:肺腺癌组织和细胞中STING的表达水平均显著低于正常肺组织(均P<0.01),STING高表达肺腺癌患者5年OS率显著高于低表达患者(P<0.01),STING的表达与肺腺癌患者的年龄、性别等临床特征密切相关(均P<0.01)。STING高表达在肺腺癌外源性抗原处理及提呈等通路上存在富集(均P<0.01)。使用STING激动剂可显著诱导肺腺癌细胞发生内质网应激(P<0.05),STING诱导活化后肺腺癌细胞增殖活力显著下降(均P<0.01),内质网应激抑制剂能部分恢复STING活化诱导后下降的细胞活力(P<0.05)。结论:STING基因在肺腺癌中低表达,其表达下调与肺腺癌患者预后不良相关,其机制可能是STING通过诱导内质网应激而抑制肺腺癌细胞活力。
