OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational clinical use of drugs and sound management thereof. METH-ODS:The relative data of antihypertensive drugs applied in 34 hospitals in Wuhan city during 2011 and 2013 were analyzed sta-tistically by using the analytical method of the Defined Daily Dose(DDD)recommended by WHO. RESULTS:Both consump-tion amount and DDDs of antihypertensive drugs in Wuhan city were increasing during 2011 and 2013,where calcium-channel blockers(CCB)enjoyed the largest consumption amount and the highest DDDs,with the constituent ratio of over 40% respec-tively,followed by angiotensinⅡreceptor antagonist (ARB) and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs). The con-sumption amount and DDDs of new compound preparation also increased. Top three single drugs in terms of consumption amount were amlodipine,levamlodipine and valsartan,while amlodipine,nifedipine and felodipine ranked the top three in DDDs list. CONCLUSIONS:Wide usage of antihypertensive drugs in Wuhan City are respectively CCB,ARB,ACEI,adrener-gic receptor blockers and diuretics,which are applied in current principle of antihypertensive drugs use and basically rational in clinical application.

Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) has been widely applied in palliative treatment of unresectable primary and metastatic liver cancer,and its efficiency and safety also have been widely acknowledged.However,there is a wide range of related complications,such as upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage,liver failure,pulmonary embolism,embolic cholecystitis and so on.As a serious complication of TACE,bile duct injury has been reported intermittently since the introduction of hepatic arterial embolization therapy.However,the exact pathogenesis,predisposing factors and clinical implications of the injuries remain to be clarified.As we find,by far there is no literature review about the bile duct injury after TACE for liver malignant tumors both at home and abroad.Thus the purpose of our study was to discuss such current issue of bile duct injury,and 26 articles have been included and analyzed.

Objective To explore the clinical value of serum procalcitonin(PCT)and C-reactive protein(CRP)combination detec-tion in early diagnosis of liver cirrhosis complicating spontaneous bacterial peritonitis(SBP).Methods The peripheral blood sam-ples were collected from 30 cases of liver cirrhosis complicating SBP,30 cases of simple ascites liver cirrhosis (non-SBP)and 45 healthy subjects as control group.The serum PCT level was detected by the dry immunofluorescence quantitation method and the serum CRP level was detected by the immunoturbidimetry.The sensitivity and specificity of PCT,CRP and PCT combined with CRP in diagnosing liver cirrhosis complicating SBP were compared and the relationship between PCT levels and prognosis was ana-lyzed.Results Compare with the healthy control group and the non-SBP group,the serum PCT and CRP levels in the SBP group were markedly increased(P <0.05).The sensitivity of PCT,CRP and PCT combined with CRP in diagnosing liver cirrhosis compli-cating SBP was 93.3%,90.0% and 96.6% respectively,and the specificity was 90.0%,75.0% and 95.0% respectively.Conclusion The combination detection of serum PCT and CRP can increase the sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis and has more clini-cal value in early diagnosing liver cirrhosis complicating SBP.

Objective To systematically assess the efficiency of colonoscopy screening for the asymptomatic elderly.Methods A search was performed to identify studies related to colonoscopy screening for the aged in Pubmed and Embase.The key words used for the search included colorectal neoplasm, adenoma, screening, elderly, and colonoscopy.The detection rate of colorectal adenomas, advanced adenomas,colorectal cancer in the elderly and non-elderly were extracted.The studies were evaluated and analyzed by software RevMan 5.3.Results Twelve studies involving 312 111 cases were included(25 107 elderly and 287 004 non-elderly).The total AADR of the elderly was 9.97％ ,ADR was 11.33％ ,while CRC detection rate Was 1.79％.The meta-analysis showed that there were significant differences in the AADR(RR =1.57,95％ CI: 1.51-1.64), ADR(RR =1.22, 95％ CI: 1.19-1.25) and CRC detection rate(RR =2.6,95％ CI:2.34-2.90) between the elderly and the younger patients (P ＜ 0.000 01).The detection rate of AADR,ADR, CRC in the elderly were significantly higher than the non-elderly.Conclusion The elderly have higher AADR and CRC detection rate than the younger.But further studies are needed because life expectancy and complications are factors that need to be considered for screening.

Objective To compare differences of CSF biochemical index in optic myelitis combined with abnormal signal in craniocerebral MRI with no significant abnormalities in brain MRI.Methods The data of 39 cases who meet the diagnostic criteria of Wingerchuck were collected.The brain MRI and cerebrospinal fluid,blood bio-chemical indexes were retrospectively analyzed.Results There were no statistical differences between two groups of patients in onset age,average age,hospitalization days,the number of red blood cells,white blood cell,hemoglobin, cerebrospinal fluid leukocyte and CSF synthetic index,the total number of cells,cerebrospinal fluid IgG,synthetic rate index of sheath,but the index of blood brain barrier(CSF:serum albumin ratio,AR)of NMO patients with craniocere-bral MRI abnormalities was higher than normal group(P <0.05).Conclusion NMO patients with brain abnormali-ties are common,and cerebral MRI with signs of abnormalities shows a higher AR value,speculated that abnormal brain MRI signal in NMO patients is associated with the damage of blood -brain barrier,investigation of NMO brain MRI performance can improve the diagnosis of the NMO and identification with multiple sclerosis.

Objective To explore the influence of different administration time on antidepressant effect of seven clinical common antidepressants. Methods Male mice were randomly divided into eight groups:venlafaxine (75 mg/kg), sertraline (20 mg/kg), fluoxetine (20 mg/kg), doxepin (15 mg/kg), mirtazapine (15 mg/kg), citalopram (40 mg/kg), trazodo?ne (50 mg/kg) and control (saline) groups. Each group contained 36 mice. Drugs were administered to 6 mice per group 30 min before forced swimming test at the 6 time points (9:00, 13:00 and 17:00 as light phase and 21:00, 1:00 and 5:00 as dark phase). Forced swimming test was applied to determine the influence of dosing time on anti-immobility effect of seven antidepressants at each time point. Results Immobility time in venlafaxine group and sertraline group significant?ly decreased compared with that of control group at all time points(all P<0.05). Moreover, anti-immobility effects of ven?lafaxine, fluoxetine, mirtazapine and doxepin were better during the dark phase than during the light phase (all P<0.05). In addition, immobility time in sertraline group decreased at the late part of dark phase (5:00) and the early part of light phase (9:00) compared with other phases (P<0.05). Conclusions Most antidepressants show 24-h rhythm dependent an?ti-immobility effects, but rhythmic patterns are not completely consistent among different antidepressants. Further study is needed to explore the chronopharmacological mechanism and clinical applications of these antidepressants.
