Chinese Journal of Pharmacoepidemiology 2007;0(05):-
Objective:To investigate piperacillin resistance of clinically isolated Gram-negative bacterial strains. Method:All references related to piperacillin resistance were retrieved through the internet CNKI.The resistance rates of different types of bacteria from various regions and years were re-calculated.Result:104 documents were eventually chosen. The results showed that the resistant rates of Gram-negative bacterial strains and Enterobacteriaceae had been increasing year by year,while the resistance rates of Gram-negative bacterial strains fluctuated during different years from 2000 to 2007.However,the resistance rates of Enterobacteriaceae to piperacillin were higher than those of non-fermentative Gramnegative bacterial strains.The resistance rates to piperacillin were different among types of bacteria,regions and years.Conclusion: The resistance rates of clinical Gram-negative bacteria and Enterobacteriaceae to piperacillin showed an upward tendency year by year in China from 2000 to 2007.However,the resistance of non-fermentative Gram-negative bacteria had an outbreak tendency in some regions and years.

【Objective】To explore the effect of acupoint catgut implantation(ACI) on hypothalamic monoamine neurotransmitters in rats treated with clozapine.【Methods】Thirty-six SD rats were randomized into ACI group,clozapine group and blank control group.Except the blank control group,the rats in other two groups received clozapine.The dosage of clozapine for the rats was 5 mg?kg-1?d-1 at the first time,increased to 30 mg?kg-1?d-1,and then reduced to 22 mg?kg-1?d-1 which maintained till the end of the experiment.After 60-day treatment with clozapine,ACI group was treated with ACI alternatively on Baihui(GV20),bilateral Xinshu(BL15) and bilateral Quchi(LI11),or on Dazhui(GV14),bilateral Pishu(BL20),bilateral Zusanli(ST36),one time every 5 days,12 times in total.The changes of body weight before and after treatment,and the hypothalamic monoamine neurotransmitters contents of dopamine(DA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) were observed in the three groups.【Results】In the clozapine group,the rats body weight markedly increased,and the contents of DA and 5-HT decreased(P

This observation was to assess the treatment effects of free medial sural artery perforator muscle flap on foot reconstruction.Seven patients(6 men,and 1 woman;age 19 to 46 years,mean 33) with soft tissue defects on the foot underwent surgical procedures by using free medial sural artery perforator muscle flap.The coverage of the muscle flaps was performed by a meshed split-thickness skin graft.The donor site Was closed.Median follow-up Was 2.5 years(range 7 monks to 5.5 years).All the muscle flaps and skin grafts survived without major complications,and no morbidity was found at the donor sites.The muscle flaps seem to have advantage in blood supply,vascular anatomy and pedicle length,and may be helpful in the mpmr of soft tissue defects on the foot.

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of acute kidney injury (AKI)in hepatitis B virus (HBV)related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF)patients,and to explore the impact of AKI on the prognosis of ACLF.Methods The medical records of 227 patients who were diagnosed with HBV-related ACLF at the Department of Infectious Diseases in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from January 2015 to August 2016 were retrospectively reviewed.Patients were divided into AKI group and non-AKI group based on the AKI criteria published by International Club of Ascites in 2015 .Demographic and clinical data were compared between groups.The AKI incidence and its impact on patients’prognosis were analyzed.The comparison of continuous variables was done by t test or rank-sum test.The comparison of categorical variables was done byχ2 test or Fisher exact test.AKI risk factors were analyzed by using logistic regression.Results There were 66 (29.1 %)cases were diagnosed with AKI among 227 ACLF patients,among which,45 patients (68.2%)were stage Ⅰ,14 (21 .2%) were stage Ⅱ and 7 (10.6%)were stage Ⅲ.Age,cirrhosis,concentrations of total bilirubin and albumin,international normalized ratio (INR),percentage of neutrophils,MELD scores and spontaneous peritonitis rate (SBP)were all statistically different between AKI group and non-AKI group (all P <0.05).The binary logistic regression analysis revealed that only INR (OR=3.132,P =0.001 )and SBP (OR=4.204,P =0.001 )were the independent risk factors of AKI.The optimal cut-off value for INR was 2.025 with AUROC of 0.609 (P =0.01),sensitivity of 59.1 % and specificity of 62.1 %.The 30-day mortality of AKI group was significantly higher than non-AKI group (χ2= 18.324,P < 0.01). Conclusions AKI is relatively common in patients with ACLF.The risk factors of AKI are INR and SBP. AKI has significant impact on the short-term survival rate of ACLF.Therefore,physicians should pay attention to patients with INR of ACLF at admissions and SBP during the management so as to prevent the occurrence of AKI and to reduce the fatality of ACLF.

BACKGROUND:Herba epimedi, a traditional Chinese medicine, has a long time in dealing with various orthopedic disorders. Icarinwithmany biological activites is one of the most important compositions of Herba epimedi. OBJECTIVE:Toinvestigate the effects of icarin on osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cels and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels were treated using icarin with or without osteogenic mediumin vitro. Osteogenic differentiation markers, including runt-related transcription factor 2, osteocalcin and osterix, were detected by real time-qPCR. Alizarin red staining was used to measure calcium nodes generated by osteoblasts induced frombonemarrow mesenchymal stem cels. The proximal tibia bone structure of rats fed with icarin (2 mgperday) for 5 weeks was detected and analyzed by MicroCT. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Icarin was able to promote the expression of genes related to osteogenic differentiation in the absence or presence of osteogenic induction. Icarin could obviously increase the quantity of calcium nodes whenmesenchymal stem celswere cultured in the osteogenic medium. The animal experiment showed that icarin improved formation of trabecular bone.

Objective To study the inhibition of berberine on organ anion transporters (OATs) and its bidirectional trans-membrane transport.Method The transgene cell lines of the organ anion transporters including OAT1,OAT2,OAT3,OAT4,OAT7,and URAT1 were constructed and selected by animal cell transgenic method mediated by transporter Lipo 3000.Wild type (WT) cells were used as control group,and activity of OATs was verified by adding their radiolabeled substrates and inhibitors.The inhibition of 100 μmol/L berberine on the transporters was investigated in vitro.The IC50 of berberine on URAT1 was also determined.The bidirectional transport of berberine was studied through the Caco-2 model.Result The results showed that 100 μmol/L berberine inhibited the activity of OAT1,OAT2,OAT3,OAT4,OAT7 and URAT1 to (70.48±4.23)%,(69.13±1.28)%,(72.12±3.28)%,(79.77±6.49)%,(69.51 ±5.99)% and (38.4 ± 2.67)% respectively,the IC50 of berberine to URAT 1 was 13.19 μmol/L,the Papp (A-B) of 50 μmol/L and 100 μmol/L berberine were separately 0.28 × 10-6 and 0.40 × 10-6 cm/s,and the effiux rates were separately 3.18 and 3.15.Conclusion Berberine shows a stronger inhibition to URAT1 compared to OAT1,OAT2,OAT3,OAT4 and OAT7.Berberine may be the substrate of some effiux transporters.This study provides theoretical basis for explaining the low bioavailability ofberberine and forecasting the possible drug-drug interaction.
