Clinical symptoms with serum theoph ylline level above normal therapeutical range were analysed in 32 case. Methods: Theophylline 20μgmL-1 invserum was defined as the upper limit of normal therapeutical range. The case records with serum theo phylline concentraed ≥20μgmL-1 were selected from 324 cases, analyse d in combination with clinical symptoms. Results: Patients with serum theophylline concentration ≥20 μgmL-1 showed toxic reacti ons involving cardiovasucular, digestive, and nervous systems. One third of them took simultaneously other drugs which could decrease the metabolism of theophyl line. Conclusion: In order to prevent and diagnose toxicr eactions effectively, it's necessary to monitor the patients'serum theophylline level.

0.05). But the incidence of rehospitalization in combination group because of adverse cardiovascular events wasn’t more two times than that of non-combination group (OR=2.07; 95% confidence interval ranged from 1.87 to 2.20). CONCLUSION: The results of study are similar to other studies of foreign countries. PPI can influent the anti-platelet effect of clopidogrel so as to increase the incidence of rehospitalization risk resulted from adverse cardiovascular events. Physicians should apply PPI with cautions.

Objective To summarize the clinical manifestation ,the main pathogenic bacteria distribution and drug resistance of neonatal community acquired sepsis late onset in our hospital .Methods Retrospectively analyse the clinical material of 122 cases (41 premature cases and 81 cases of full term) with neonatal community acquired sepsis late onset ,which were clinically diagnosed , from January 2009 to December 2012 in our hospital .Results The main clinical manifestation of neonatal community acquired sep-sis late onset was poor response(64 .7% ) ,repellent milk(57 .4% ) ,temperature changes(61 .5% ) ,and the respiratory tract and um-bilical region were the main infection ways .42 cases were checked out with pathogen in the 122 cases ,blood culture positive rate was 34 .4% ,and there was no statistically differences between the premature and the full term infant group ,In the 42 cases ,there were 29 cases with staphylococcus ,including 10 cases of staphylococcus aureus ,14 cases of coagulase negative staphylococcus and 5 cases of enterococcus ;and there were 10 cases are checked out with e .coli .All of the coccus detected were resistant to penicillin and erythromycin ,but sensitive to vancomycin ,teicoplanin ,linezolid .The e .coli was sensitive to amikacin ,imipenem ,meropenem ,and al-so had a higher sensitivity to cefazolin ,ceftriaxone ,cefepime ,cefoperazone and nitrofurantoin .Conclusion Blood culture positive rate is not high in neonatal community acquired sepsis late onset ,and its′clinical manifestations are nonspecific .The main pathogenic bacteria is coagulase negative staphylococcus ,staphylococcus aureus ,followed by escherichia coli .

OBJECTIVE:
The present study investigated how mild moxibustion treatment affects the intestinal microbiome and expression of NLRP3-related immune factors in a rat model of intestinal mucositis (IM) induced with 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu).
METHODS:
Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control, chemotherapy, moxibustion and probiotics groups. The IM rat model was established by intraperitoneal injection of 5-Fu. Mild moxibustion treatment and intragastric probiotic administration were provided once daily for 15 days. Tissue morphology, serum levels of inflammatory factors and the expression levels of tight junction proteins, caspase-1, gasdermin D and NLRP3 were evaluated in colon tissue, through hematoxylin and eosin staining, electron microscopy, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, Western blotting, quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and immunofluorescence. Gut microbiome profiling was conducted through 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing.
RESULTS:
Moxibustion and probiotic treatments significantly increased the expression levels of tight junction proteins, reduced cell apoptosis and the expression levels of caspase-1, gasdermin D and NLRP3; they also decreased the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β and IL-18, while increasing serum levels of IL-10. Moxibustion and probiotic treatments also corrected the reduction in α-diversity and β-diversity in IM rats, greatly increased the proportion of the dominant bacterial genus Lactobacillus and reduced the abundance of the genera Roseburia and Escherichia in chemotherapy-treated rats to levels observed in healthy animals. We also found that these dominant genera were firmly correlated with the regulation of pyroptosis-associated proteins and inflammatory factors. Finally, moxibustion and probiotic treatments elicited similar effects in regulating intestinal host-microbial homeostasis and the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related factors.
CONCLUSION
Moxibustion exerts its therapeutic effect on IM by ameliorating mucosal damage and reducing inflammation. Moreover, moxibustion modulates the gut microbiota, likely via decreasing the expression levels of the NLRP3 inflammasome.
