OBJECTIVE:To reflect the representative problems existing in the medication safety of public from the side,and provide reference for conducting the following public survey in a large area. METHODS:Questionnaires were used to investigate the knowledge of drug and medication habits of teachers in a senior high school in Beijing,and the received data was statistically analyzed. RESULTS:Totally 88 questionnaires were issued in this investigation,84 effective questionnaires were acquired,with ef-fective recovery of 95.45%. A few teachers had blind faith in intravenous infusion and preferred using antibiotics without doctor's di-agnosis when they caught a cold and fever;48.81%of the respondents barely understood or only partly understood the drug instruc-tions;34.52% didn't know that more serious adverse reactions induce by intravenous infusion were more serious than by oral treat-ment;46.43% rarely checked the period of validity of reserved drugs at home;38.10% didn’t following directions when taking drugs;80.95% had never received the education of medication safety,and 21.43% of them had no intention to accept this educa-tion;when taking drugs for a long time,79.76% of them didn’t do regular examinations of blood routine,renal and liver function tests. CONCLUSIONS:The knowledge of drug use of the respondents in the school is poor,there are many misunderstandings ex-isted in the medication habit,which prompts hidden trouble also exists in medication safety,and reflects hidden trouble commonly exists in medication safety for public from the side.

Objective To investigate the changes of the expression of GDNF and GDNFR?1 of long-term denervation of posterior cricoarytenoid muscles(PCAMs).Methods 38 patients with vocal paralysis were grouped into four according to their denervated period of time while 12 normal PCAMs as control group.Using double immunofluorescence stain,changes of GDNF and GDNFR1 expression were observed in myofibers at different time points after denervation.Results Double immunofluorescence stain with antibodies against GDNF and GDNFR1 showed no staining in the control group,and study groups.However,after the muscle denervation lasted for 6-12 months and 1-2 years,noted was a significant accumulation of GDNF and GDNFR1 protein in cytolemma and endochylema of myofiber.The mean grey scales and positive region ratios were compared using the image analysis system.The results revealed the levels of GDNF and GDNFR1 protein expression in 6-12 months group,1-2yr group changed significantly(P0.05).Conclusion The changes in expression of GDNF and the acceptor GDNFR-?1,a powerful neurotrophic factor,implied that a good nervous regenerated microenvironment in PCAMs within 2 years.This experiment indicated that denervated posterior cricoarytenoid muscles are able to regain their functions through reinneration within 2 years.

Objective:To investigate the change in myogenin expression at different time in long-term denervated human posterior cricoarytenoid muscles(PCAMs),so as to provide a theoretical basis for timing of reinnervation.Methods: Thisty-eight specimens of denervated human PCAMs were divided into 4 groups according to the period of denervation: 6-12 months denervation group(n=12),1-2 years denervation group(n=10),2-3 years denervation group(n=8),and over 3 years denervation group(n=8).Another 12 specimens of normal PCAMs served as control.The patients in all groups were age-and sex-matched.The expression of myogenin protein and mRNA was studied using immunofluorescence staining and real-time PCR analysis,respectively.Results: Immunofluorescence staining showed that the positive myogenin expression was mainly!found in the myonuclei of PCAMs with a denervation period less than 3 years;no positive staining was found in the myonuclei of control group.The expression of myogenin in myonuclei and the ratio of positive cells were up-regulated in the 6-12 month denervation group compared with those in the control group;the expression and the ratio peaked in 1-2 years denervation group and decreased again in the 2-3 years denervation group,but was still significantly higher than those of the control group(all P

Objective:To study the morphological changes of posterior cricoarytenoid muscles(PCM) in patients with long-term denervation of recurrent laryngeal nerve(RLN),so as to provide theoretical evidence for repair of recurrent laryngeal nerve at advanced clinical stage.Methods: Thirty-eight patients with damaged RLN were divided into 4 groups according to the duration of their RLN damage: 6-12 months group(n=12),1-2 years group(n=10),2-3 years group(n=8),and over 3 years group(n=8).Twelve subjects with normal PCM served as control.Trichrome Masson staining and imaging analyzing system were used to quantitatively analyze the transverse section areas of myofibers,collagen fiber and connective tissues.SDH and AchE staining and cell counting method were used to analyze changes of two kinds of myofibers and motor end plate numbers at different times after denervation of recurrent laryngeal nerve.Results: The transverse areas of myofibers gradually decreased and those of collagen fibers gradually increased with the prolongation of denervation;the difference was significant between different groups(P

Objective To study the influence and mechanism of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) on myotube phenotype by myotube transdifferentiation induced by transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1). Methods C2C12 cells were cultured in differentiation medium to induce myotubes formation. The cells were randomly devided into 3 groups. The control group without growth factor interruption. The induction group was supplemented with TGF-β1 (5 ng/mL) while the inhibition group was supplenmented with both TGF-β1 (5 ng/mL) and HGF (30 ng/mL). After 12 hours, the expressions of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) protein in myotubes were detected by Western blot, the levels of CTGF mRNA were measured by RT-PCR. Results Compared to the control group, the protein and mRNA levels of CTGF significantly increased in TGF-β1 treated group , whereas the protein and mRNA levels of CTGF were significantly lower in inhibition group than those in induction group (P < 0.05). Conclusion HGF can inhibit the effect of TGF-β1 on the expression of CTGF in myotubes , which provides the evidences on the study of skeletal muscle cell transdifferentiation.

Objective To investigate the effects of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) pretreatment on H9c2 myocardial hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury, and explore its mechanism. Methods The H9c2 myocardial cells were cul?tured in vitro and (95%O2+5%CO2) oxygen cultured 12 h after (95%N2+5%CO2) hypoxia cultured 4 h to establish the H/R model. The cells were divided into normal control group, H/R group, different concentrations (1, 10, 100μg/L) BDNF pre?treatment in H/R groups and TrkB-inhibitor group (with 100μg/L BDNF and 1∶1 000 TrkB inhibitor pre-treatment in H/R group). The cell survival rate was measured by MTT method in different groups. The lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase (CK), malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) content and activity were detected after H/R injury. The apoptotic rate of H9c2 myocardial cells were detected by flow cytometry, and the expressions of TrkB, Bcl-2 and Bax protein were detected by Western blot assay. Results Compared with the normal control group, the survival rate of H9c2 myocardial cells was decreased significantly in H/R model group (P < 0.05), LDH, CK and MDA contents were increased and SOD activity was decreased (P<0.05). The cell apoptosis rate was increased significantly (P<0.05). The anti-apoptosis Bcl-2 protein expression was decreased, pro-apoptosis Bax protein expression was increased in H/R model group (P<0.05). Compared with the H/R model group, the cell survival rates of H9c2 myocardial cells were increased after pre-treatment with different concentrations of BDNF (P<0.05);LDH, CK and MDA contents were decreased and SOD activity were in?creased respectively (P < 0.05). The cell apoptotic rates were decreased (P < 0.05). The expressions of TrkB receptor and Bcl-2 protein gradually increased, while the expression of Bax protein was gradually decreased (P<0.05). The role of BDNF was inhibited by TrkB inhibitor. Conclusion BDNF pre-treatment can promote the cell survival rate of H9c2 myocardial cells after H/R injury, which plays a protective role by inhibiting the cell apoptotic rate and maintaining antioxidant capacity, and associates with BDNF-TrkB signaling pathways.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational use of antibacterials. METHODS:Taking 69 hospitals of Beijing, Tianjin,Shanghai,Hangzhou,Guangzhou,Chengdu as samples,the data about the purchase and application of antibacterials in outpatient department were collected during 2009 to 2013,and analyzed in terms of the proportion of the amount of antibacterials in all chemical drugs,the number of antibacterials among top 80% chemical drugs in the list of consumption sum and their variet-ies number,the utilization rate of antibacterials in outpatient prescription,the percentage of two and more antibiotics combination in outpatient antibiotics prescriptions,the proportion of antibiotics use,etc. RESULTS:The proportion of average purchase amount of antibacterials in chemical drugs decreased from 20.97 % in 2009 to 14.17 % in 2013;the number of antibacterials among top 80% chemical drugs in the list of consumption sum decreased from 43 in 2009 to 34 in 2013;the average utilization rate of outpa-tient antibacterials decreased from 23.22 % in 2009 to 16.11 % in 2013;there was statistical significance(P<0.05). The varieties of antibacterials decreased from 78 kinds in 2009 decreased to 54 kinds in 2012(P<0.05),but rise to 66 kinds in 2013;the per-centage of two and more antibacterials combination in outpatient antibacterials prescriptions decreased fron 9.02% in 2009 to 7.35% in 2012 (P<0.05),rise to 12.89% in 2013. The utilization ratio of antibacterials injection in outpatient antibacterials pre-scriptions had no significant change. The utilization of antibacterials in tertiary hospitals from 6 districts was analyzed;cephalospo-rin had ranked the first place,and almost occupied half part of antibacterials but declined;the utilization rate of antibacterials for special use was on the rise. CONCLUSIONS:After 3 years of antibacterials special rectification,and the utilization of antibacteri-als in 6 districts as Beijing have been improved significantly;however,several index have little improvements,and some rebound-ed in 2013,so this activities needs to establish long-term mechanism of continuous supervision.

Objective: To investigate the effect of tanshinone IIA (TSN) on left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHRs). Methods: A total of 60 SHRs at 8 weeks of age were randomly divided into 3 group: Blank control group, the rats were sacriifced at 8 weeks, TSN group, the rats were treated with TSN at 1 ml/(kg?d) for 18 weeks and Solvent control group, the rats were treated with the solvent at 1 ml/(kg?d) for 18 weeks. n=20 in each group and 15 rats were used for the experiments. The systolic blood pressure (SBP) and left ventricular mass index (LVMI) were examined, cardiomyocyte’s diameter and surface area were measured by HE staining, the apoptosis rate was evaluated by TUNEL method and the apoptosis related protein expression s of Bcl-2, Bax and p53 were determined by Western blot analysis. Results: ①Compared with Solvent control group, TSN group had decreased LVMI (3.23 ± 0.24) mg/g vs (4.58 ± 0.68) mg/g,cardiomyocyte’s diameter (16.13 ± 1.77) μm vs (27.15 ± 3.52) μm and surface area (230.23 ± 69.37) μm2 vs (490.12 ± 118.96) μm2and decreased apoptosis rate (7.45 ± 1.78) % vs (10.61 ± 2.77) %, allP<0.01.②With NAPDH reference correction, compared with Solvent control group, TSN group presented increased protein expression of Bcl-2 (0.97 ± 0.31) vs (0.40 ± 0.11) and decreased Bax (0.37 ± 0.15) vs (1.81 ± 0.44), decreased p53 (0.83 ± 0.18) vs (2.72 ± 0.28), allP<0.05 or P<0.01. The above indexes were similar between TSN group and Blank control group,P>0.05. Conclusion: TSN could inhibit the development of LVH and decrease the cardiomyocyte apoptosis, which might be via up-regulating the protein expressions of Bcl-2 and down-regulating Bax and p53 in SHRs.

ObjectiveTo evaluate long-term outcome of laryngeal reinnervation using the main branch of the ansa cervicalis for the treatment of unilateral vocal fold paralysis (UVFP) caused by thyroid surgery. MethodsFrom Oct.1990 to Jan.2010,a total of 325 UVFP patients who underwent main branch of ansa cervicalis-to-recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) anastomosis were enrolled in the study.We retrospectively analyzed the efficacy of the reinnervation surgery using videostroboscopy,vocal function assessment (acoustic analysis,perceptual evaluation and maximum phonation time ),and laryngeal electromyography. ResultsVideostroboscopy showed that the glottic closure,vocal fold edge,vocal fold position,phase symmetry and regularity were significantly improved postoperatively. The vocal function parameters (GRBAS scale,jitter,shimmer,noise to harmonics ratio and maximum phonation time) were also significantly improved postoperatively ( P ＜ 0.01 ),as compared to corresponding preoperative values.Voice recovered to a normal level in 93.5％(304/325)patients,and the effective rate was 98.8％ (321/325). Postoperative laryngeal electromyography confirmed successful reinnervation of laryngeal muscle. CondusionsLaryngeal reinnervation using the main branch of ansa cervicalis is a feasible and effective approach for treatment of UVFP patients caused by thyroid surgery,with satisfactory long-term results.
