ObjectiveTo dynamically observe the effects ofJieduan Niwan Formula on mitochondrial apoptotic pathway in acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) rats; To further reveal the possible mechanism ofJieduan Niwan Formula.MethodsSPF Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group andJieduan Niwan group. 13-week porcine serum injection followed withD-galactosamine and lipopolysaccharide joint acute attack was used to established ACLF model in all rats except for normal group. Rats inJieduan Niwangroup were orally givenJieduan NiwanFormula for 3 days before acute attack. Rats were sacrificed respectively at 4, 8 and 12 h after models were established. The expressions of Bid, Cytochrome C (Cyt C) and hepatocyte ultrastructure were detected by Western blot method, immunohistochemical analysis and transmission electron microscope, respectively.Results Compared with normal group, the levels of Cyt C and Bid in model group increased at 4 h and peaked at 8 h but decreased at 12 h (P<0.05); however, the levels of Cyt C and Bid inJieduan Niwan group were lower than those in model group at 4 and 8 h but higher at 12 h (P<0.05). The ultrastructures were significantly damaged in model rats, which severity was escalated through time; inJieduan Niwan group, the degree of injury decreased at each timing.ConclusionJieduan NiwanFormula can efficiently alleviate the hepatocyte damage in ACLF rats, and the mechanism might be involved in the inhibition of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway.

ObjectiveTo study the effects of group BStreptococcus (GBS) colonization in late pregnancies on neonatal GBS infection.MethodsA total of 17 019 pregnant women who received antenatal care and delivered in Xiamen Maternal and Child Care Hospital from June 1, 2014 to May 31, 2015 were enrolled in this study. Secretions from the lower third of the vagina in the pregnant women at 35-37 weeks of gestation or having premature baby(regardless of gestational age) were obtained to test GBS by standard bacterial culture, and 1 472 cases underwent GBS DNA test by real-time fluorescent quantitative-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) meanwhile. The pregnant women colonized with GBS (GBS culture and/or PCR DNA test positive) were given intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis (IAP) during parturition or rupture of fetal membranes. Detection rate of the two methods was compared, and the effects of GBS colonization and IAP on neonatal GBS infection were analyzed to identify the risk factors of neonatal early-onset GBS disease (GBS-EOD). Two independent samplest-test,Chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis. ResultsThe detection rate of GBS culture and PCR DNA test was 14.43% (2 456/17 019) and 14.13%(288/1 472), respectively. The total colonization rate was 14.52%(2 472/17 019). Based on the culture results as golden criteria, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of PCR assay were 95.05%, 98.74%, 92.31% and 99.21%, respectively. There were 17 332 deliveries from the 17 019 pregnant women, of which 31 cases had GBS-EOD. The incidence of neonatal GBS-EOD in maternal GBS colonization [1.05%(26/2 472)] was 31 times higher than in pregnant women without GBS colonization [0.34‰(5/14 547)]. Among the 31 infants with GBS-EOD, 24 had pneumonia, five had sepsis, and two had meningitis. The case fatality rate was 6.45%(2/31). Logistic regression analysis found that chorioamnionitis was an independent risk factor of neonatal GBS-EOD (OR=40.425, 95%CI: 7.514-379.782,P=0.000). Compared with the non-IAP group,IAP group had a lower incidence of GBS-EOD among the pregnant women colonized with GBS [0.94%(23/2 443) vs 10.34%(3/29),χ2=24.350,P<0.01].ConclusionsGBS colonization in late pregnant women has adverse effects. Therefore, routine maternal rectovaginal culture of GBS may be necessary and IAP should be applied in those with GBS colonization.

Objective To investigate the mental states of the community-dwelling elderly in Beijing ,and to explore their relationship with depression using multivariate analysis ,in order to provide evidence for strategies to prevent depression in the elderly. Methods A total of 400 community elderly residents in Chaoyang District of Beijing were recruited in this cross-sectional study. The mental states of older adults were assessed by using the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS) ,the Medical Outcomes Study(Mos)36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) ,and the Social Support Rating Scale(SSRS).The correlations of the mental state with demographic data ,quality of life and social support were examined via multivariate analysis. Results Of 400 questionnaires ,364 were valid.Depression occurred in 64 older adults ,and the detection rate was 17.6% (64/364).Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that depression was closely correlated with age ( P = 0.049 ) , physiological function(P=0.009) ,vitality(P=0.028) ,mental health(P＜0.001) ,self-reported health transition(P=0.003) ,objective support(P=0.001)and subjective support(P=0.001)in community-dwelling elderly residents in Beijing.Bivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that five factors , including vitality (OR = 0.595 ,P= 0.036 ) ,mental health (OR = 0.548 ,P = 0.021 ) ,self-reported health transition(OR=1.597 ,P= 0.048) ,objective support (OR= 0.524 ,P= 0.018)and subjective support(OR=1.787 ,P=0.027) ,were influencing factors for depression in the elderly.Self-reported health transition and subjective support had the greatest impact on depression in the elderly . Conclusions Critical approaches to preventing depression in the elderly include a focus on the mental health and social needs as well as measures to enhance self-confidence in the health of these individuals.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate the accessibility of antibiotics in essential medicine list in medical institutions of Nanjing area ，and to provide reference for formulating and improving related drug policy. METHODS ：Taking the original and imitated drugs as the objects of investigation ，the standard investigation method jointly formulated by WHO/HAI was adopted to select 35 kinds of antibiotics which were included in Essential Medicine List （2018 edition）and International Drug Price Indicator Guide（2015 edition），and to investigate 3 dimenions such as the availability （proportion of institutions that could provide this drug），price（calculated by MPR ）and affordability （the ratio of drug expenditure to the daily minimum wage of non-technical government workers ）of them in 13 second-class or above medical institutions in Nanjing area by online questionnaires during Jan.-Jun. 2019，so as to put forward the suggestions for drug policy formulation. RESULTS ：The median availability of original drugs was 0，with a range of 0 to 100％；the median availability of generic drugs was 30.80％，with a range of 0 to 100％. The median MPR of original drugs was 5.54，with a range of 1.96 to 18.83；the median MPR of generic drugs was 1.76，with a range of 0.16 to 7.66. Median affordability of original drugs was 8.68，with a range of 1.19 to 41.79；the median affordability of generic drugs was 0.52， with a range of 0.03 to 16.80. CONCLUSIONS：Generic drugs are more available than the originals. The price of original drugs is generally very high ， while the price of generic drugs is mostly cheaper. The affordability of original drugs is really poor ， and the 规。E-mail：shaorong118@163.com affordability of generic drugs is totally good. There are stillrooms for further improvement in the overall accessibility of essential medicines. At present ，ensuring the accessibility of original drugs may be more helpful to meet the needs of treatment. It is suggested to update and adjust the essential medicine list based on the clinical medication requirement ，popularize the knowledge about essential medicines ，properly adjust the price of original drugs and ease the treatment burden of patient. It is supposed to take into full consideration about the regional factors and the needs of different medical institutions when making drug policy.
