China Pharmacist 2015;(5):827-828,829
Objective: To discuss the importance of pharmaceutical care in anti-infective treatment for one patient with severe pneumonia and renal insufficiency performed by clinical pharmacists. Methods: Clinical pharmacist participated in evaluating and changing the anti-infective treatment regimen, adjusted the drug dosage according to the renal function reasonably to avoid adverse drug reactions and completed the medication education and health education for the patient. Results:The infection was controlled effective-ly, gasp was controlled effectively and blood pressure was steady. Conclusion:Clinical pharmacists should monitor the whole treatment process,evaluate the drug regimen comprehensively and reduce adverse drug reaction to the maximum limit during the pharmaceutical care.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)in patients post-stroke depression (PSD).Methods Resting-state fMRI scans were performed in 13 patients with and without post-stroke depression.A regional homogeneity (ReHo) approach was used as an indicator.The brain function was analyzed in patients with post-stroke depression.Results Compared to a control group,the ReHo values decreased significantly in a PSD group in the left middle frontal gyrus,right superior frontal gyrus,right middle frontal gyrus,right anterior cingulate gyrus,right posterior cingutate gyrus,left insular lobe,left caudate nucleus,and left hippocampus.Conclusions The patients with PSD had restingstate neural circuit dysfunction,suggesting that the need to focus on the emotional state of stroke patients in the clinical treatment process.

Objective To provide the effective and convenient medical MOOC and remote medical education by comparatively analyzing domestic and foreign medical MOOC.Methods The following items were comparatively an-alyzed, including the number of medical MOOC, the universities offering medical MOOC, the languages used in teaching medical MOOC, the identification of MOOC, and the development of domestic and foreign medical MOOC on platforms of Coursera, edX, China university MOOC and people's health MOOC.Results The domestic medical MOOC still had a longer way to go than foreign medical MOOC in their number, scale and identification.Conclu-sion Domestic medical workers should grasp the opportunity to provide more effective and convenient medical MOOC platform.

By applying the methods of inter—element meter andmean line,decoction solution of 110 recipes were anal-ysed for the characteristics of distribution of inorganicelements.In those recipes containing more warm-heat drugs,the contents of most elements were higherthan the line of average value,while those with morecool—cold drugs,lower than the mean line,suggest-ing that the distribution value of inorganic elementsmay be a determining factor responsible for the cold-heat quality of a recipe.

Objective To investigate the clinical and prognostic significance of ABO promotor methylation level in adult patients with leukemia and myelodydysplastic syndrome(MDS). Methods ABO promoter methylation level of 182 malignant hematological disease patients and 68 normal controls were detected by bisulfite sequencing PCR. Then clinical features and outcome were compared between hypermethylation group and hypomethylation group. Results The median methylation rate of ABO promoter in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) were 46.98% and 11.01% respectively, which were both higher than that in controls (2.30%, P<0.05). The methylation rates in remission AML and ALL were 1.58%and 2.30%respectively, which were comparable with that in normal group (P>0.05). As to relapse AML and ALL, methylation rates were 41.26% and 17.50%respectively, also significantly higher than that in controls (P<0.05).In patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) chronic phase, the median methylation rate was 1.00%, which was similar to normal group. But a CML patient who transformed to ALL hadextremely high methylation rate 92.56%. The median methylation rate in patients with MDS significantly elevated as 5.81% compared with that in controls (P<0.05). The median overall survival (OS) of ALL and AML (non-M3) patients with hypermethylation were 12.5 months and 15.3 months, which were significantly shorter than those with hypomethylation (24.0 months and 20.0 months) (P<0.05). The median disease-free survival (DFS) of ALL and AML (non-M3) patients with hypermethylation were 9.9 months and 12.0 months, which were significantly shorter than those with hypomethylation (22.3 months and 18.5 months), (P<0.05). Multivariable analysis suggested that ABO promoter methylation level was an independent predictive factor of OS and DFS in ALL and AML (non-M3) patients. Conclusion ABO promoter hypermethylation is closely related to genesis, development and prognosis of leukemia and MDS. Hypermethylationis related to a clinical poor prognosis compare with hypomethylation.

Objective:
The aim of this study is to explore the application and advantages of combined intrathecal and extrathecal hypothermic plasma tonsillectomy in reducing intraoperative and postoperative hemorrhage in OSA children.
Method:
We retrospectively reviewed 726 cases who were diagnosed as OSA. All patients were divided into two groups according to the surgical method: 320 cases by total tonsillectomy and 406 cases by combined extracapsular and intracapsular tonsillectomy. The intro operative bleeding volume, post operative haemorrhage data as time, location and degree in the two groups were compared.
Result:
There was no statistical difference in the intro operative bleeding volume in the two groups [(9.3±4.6) mL]vs [(7.6±3.5) mL], t=12.687, P=0.235. Two patients who underwent combined extracapsular and intracapsular tonsillectomy presented with post operative haemorrhage, the total post operative haemorrhage rate was significantly decreased that in the total tonsillectomy group(14 cases)(χ²=10.779, P=0.001). The 2 patients in combined extracapsular and intracapsular tonsillectomy group were secondary haemorrhage, with location in the upper pole and medium, grade A haemorrhage; while in the 14 cases in in the total tonsillectomy group, there were 2 cases presented with primary haemorrhage and 12 cases with secondary haemorrhage; with regard to location of haemorrhage, 1 in the upper pole, 2 in the medium, 11 in the lower pole; 5 cases presented with grade A haemorrhage, 8 with grade B haemorrhage and 1 with grade C haemorrhage. The haemorrhage rate at 7 days after surgery (χ²=5.697, P=0.017), at the lower pole(χ²=11.961, P=0.001) and grade B(χ²=8.097, P=0.004) were all significantly decreases in the combined extracapsular and intracapsular tonsillectomy group.
Conclusion
Plasma tonsillectomy combined with intrathecal and extrathecal hypothermic tonsillectomy is a safe and effective method, which has obvious advantages in reducing the postoperative hemorrhage, especially the secondary hemorrhage of Subtonsillar Pole.
