Objective To investigate the corelationship between proton pump inhibitors (PPI) and the incidence of hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) in abdominal surgical patients. Methods A total of 283 cases admitted from 2010 to 2014 were divided into PPI group (n = 326) and HRA group (n = 92). In PPI group, patients were divided into omeprazole subgroup (subgroup A, n = 146), lansoprazole subgroup (subgroup B, n = 102) and pantoprazole subgroup (subgroup C, n = 78) by the types of PPI. In HRA group, patients were divided into famotidine subgroup (subgroup D, n = 58) and ranitidine subgroup (subgroup E, n=34) by the types of histamine-2 receptor antagonist (H2RA). The incidence of stress ulcer bleeding (SUB) and HAP were calculated, while mechanical ventilation period (MV), ICU stay and 28-day-mortality were compared. Results There were lower incidences of SUB and HAP, shorter MV and ICU stay and lower 28-day-mortality in PPI group than those in HRA group (P < 0.05). In three subgroups of PPI group, there were no significant difference on incidence rate of SUB and HAP, as well as MV, ICU stay and 28-day-mortality. Conclusion The incidence rates of SUB and HAP are lower by using PPI than H2RA in abdominal surgical patients, as well as MV, ICU stay and 28-day-mortality. Different types of PPI have no effect on the incidence rate of HAP in abdominal surgical patients.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious clinical problem with high morbidity and mortality. Renal replacement therapy (RRT) is an important tool for treating patients with AKI. The 2011 Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) Clinical Practice Guideline for AKI points out that RRT should be discontinued when renal function has recovered enough to meet the body needs or when RRT is no longer consistent with treatment goals. However, the specific reference index of weaning RRT is unclear. The guiding roles of traditional indicators such as urine output (> 400 mL/24 h), serum creatinine (SCr, decreasing trend), creatinine clearance (CCr, > 20 mL/min), and novel biomarkers such as neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), interleukins (IL-6, IL-10), kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), kynurenic acid, etc. for discontinuation of RRT in AKI patients were reviewed. Particularly, the importance of biomarkers for this purpose was highlighted.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical curative effect and safety of nabumetone for rheumatoid arthritis. METHODS: The researches about the study on the curative effect and ADRs of nabumetone for rheumatoid arthritis were retrieved and carried out by Meta-analysis. RESULTS: 9 researches were up to the including criteria. As compared with the control group, nabumetone has better effect [RR=1.11,95% CI(1.02, 1.20), P=0.01] but fewer ADRs [RR=0.71,95% CI(0.41, 1.22), P=0.007] in clinical treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. CONCLUSION: The evidence currently available shows that nabumetone has better efficacy and safety. Because the RCTs available for this systematic review are too small, more and further high-quality large-scale RCTs with long-term follow up are required to provide more reliable evidence
