[Objective]To explore improved operation treatment of fractures of olecranon and internal or external malleolus by fixing them internally with needle wire amend tension band.[Method]A total of 89 cases of olecranon fracture and 63 cases of internal and external malleolus fracture were treated by the amended traditional tension belt using needle wire nails.[Result]Sixty-eight and 55 of these cases(80.9%) had been followed-up respectively for 2.5 years in average,the longest follow-up period was 5 years and the shortest was 6 months.It shows through evaluation with Wolfgang post curative standard that 65 and 53 cases were excellent in curative effect(95.9%),3 and 2 cases had moderate result(4.1%),and there was no worse case.The average fracture cure time was 1.5 months.[Conclusion]The improvement of traditional tension belt in olecranon and internal or external malleolus fracture operation by using needle wire nails has the following advantages:(1)Simplifying operation procedures;(2)Reducing number of steel nails;(3)Keeping the biomechanical principle of the tension band and internal AO fixing advantage;(4)Reducing the phenomena of "tension loss" caused by expanded steel wire holes as a result of osteonecrosis,and avoiding internal loose complication.The disadvantage of this method is that the fixation has to be taken out through operation.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the cognition,evaluation and demands of medical staff to the clinical pharmacy work in the secondary and tertiary medical and health institutions in Xi’an city,and provide reference for further promoting the develop-ment of the local clinical pharmacy work. METHODS:20 secondary and tertiary medical and health institutions in Xi’an city were randomly selected to conduct a random sampling questionnaire for physicians,nurses (senior nurses),pharmacists (non-clinical pharmacist)and other medical technicians. And the results were statistically analyzed. RESULTS:Totally 1 020 questionnaires were sent out,851 were effectively received with effective recovery of 83.4%. 45.9% respondents knew clinical pharmacy,and“Col-league”was the main channel;34.3% thought clinical pharmacy“only maintained normal operation. 74.7% surveyed medical staff,92.6% surveyed pharmacists and 70.6% surveyed physicians thought clinical pharmacists“should”take round with the doc-tors and nurses;44.3% respondents showed“dissatisfaction”and“general satisfaction”with the clinical pharmacy work in their hospitals. 48.5% respondents would take the initiative to consult the clinical pharmacist for medication;45.5% respondents partial-ly accepted the drug information provided by clinical pharmacists. There were significant differences in the investigation results in aspects of respondents’understanding level and channel for clinical pharmacy,cognition for development situation of clinical phar-macy,evaluation for clinical pharmacists participating round,demand for consulting the medication,acceptance for drug informa-tion provided by clinical pharmacists,and other items(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The cognition and effect of clinical pharmacy work on medical staff need to be further strengthened,clinical pharmacists should also have solid clinical knowledge and the knowl-edge of medicine to meet the demand of medical staff in different positions,the acceptance of medical staff to the pharmaceutical care needs to be further improved. Clinical pharmacists should earnestly fulfill their job functions through various efforts to promote rational drug use.

Objective To elucidate the effect of multi-kinase inhibitor sorafenib on anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cells in the presence or absence of metformin.Methods SW1736 and C643 cells were treated with sorafenib in the presence or absence of metformin for various periods of time.Cell viability was detected by MTT.Cell cycle and cell apoptosis were measured by flow cytometry.Caspase-3 activity was detected by colorimetric kit.Western blot was used to analyze pERK phosphorylation and cyclinD1 expression.Results Sorafenib inhibited the growth of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cells and induced cell cycle arrest and cell apoptosis.The EC50 of sorafenib in SW1736 and C643 was 3.68 μmol/L and 4.87 μmol/L respectively.After sorafenib ± metformin treatment,the caspase3 activity was 131.5 % and 278.0% (P<0.01) in SW1736 cells,127.2% and 196.6% (P<0.01) in C643 cells.On the molecular level,sorafenib inhibited the phosphorylation of ERK and decreased the expression of cyclinD1.Metformin amplified the growth inhibitory effect of sorafenib on anaplastic thyroid carcinoma cells.The cell viability was 0.76 ± 0.17 and 0.30 ± 0.04 (P<0.01) in SW1736 cells,0.72 ± 0.09 and 0.34 ± 0.10 (P<0.001) in C643 cells after 2.5 μmol/L sorafenib without or with 5 mmol/L metformin treatment.Conclusions The combination of sorafenib and metformin may be a potent strategy for the treatment of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma and other advanced cancers.
