OBJECTIVE:To investigate the correlation of gene polymorphism in peripheral artery disease(PAD)patients with antiplatelet efficacy of clopidogrel. METHODS:Reviewing related domestic and foreign literatures in recent years,the correlation of gene polymorphism in PAD patients with antiplatelet efficacy of clopidogrel was summarized and analyzed. RESULTS&CON-CLUSIONS:At present,a variety of genes associated with clopidogrel antiplatelet efficacy and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE)have been identified,including cytochrome P450(CYP)2C19,adenosine three phosphate binding cassette B subfamily 1 (ABCB1),paraoxonase 1 (PON1) and adenosine diphosphate P2Y12 receptor (P2Y12),etc. CYP2C19*2,*3 allele may reduce the antiplatelet effect of clopidogrel. Their correlation has been confirmed by a number of studies,and study results are broadly con-sistent. Mutations in the ABCB1 C3435T and PON1 Q192R sites may lead to a lower response to clopidogrel and increase the risk of MACE;but there is a lack of large-scale prospective clinical studies,and the present results are inconsistent. P2Y12 gene poly-morphism in PAD patients has not been found to be significantly associated with clopidogrel efficacy.

OBJECTIVE:To discuss the effect of performance management in medication consultation service in hospital,and to improve the service quality in medication consultation center. METHODS:The performance management mode of medication consultation center was implemented in our hospital through formulating consultation pharmacist performance evaluation content and accounting rules from four dimensions of business skills,cultural literacy,work attitude,workload,conducting daily evaluation and check,developing training,setting development plan,etc. The effects of the mode were evaluated. RESULTS:In performance evaluation,business skills,cultural literacy,work attitude and workload took up 20,15,15 and 50 points,respectively;they were subdivided into 16 specific items and extra point items. After the implementation of above performance management,average weekly clients increased from 104 persons to 247 persons (increasing by 138%);the proportion of patient medication education mainly provided by clinical pharmacists increased from 18.30% to 46.34%(increasing by 153%);the complex and professional problems of medication consultation such as drug interaction rose from 0.96% to 5.28%;the problem of drug usage and dosage in-creased from 6.73% to 23.17%. The performance management mode not only improved the service consciousness and the enthusi-asm of consultation pharmacists,but also improved the level of pharmaceutical care. CONCLUSIONS:Reasonable and effective performance management mode can promote the service quality and ability of medication consultation center,and play more impor-tant role in hospital pharmaceutical care.

The ongoing health reform encourages pharmacists of public hospitals to change their traditional role positioning to satisfy patients’urgent needs in medical dosage guidance.This calls for greater capacity of hospital pharmacy services.Pharmaceutical consultation constitutes a major means of quality service of pharmacists for the people.The paper introduced the standard of establishing the pharmaceutical consultation center and the content of assessment system which are jointly worked out by Beijing Municipal Hospital Authority and the hospitals under the administration of the Beijing Municipal Government,and share the practice & effect in assessing and improving their performance.

OBJECTIVE:To provide theoretical foundation for individualized treatment of aspirin in patients with cardiovascu-lar disease. METHODS:Domestic and foreign literatures in recent years were collected and summarized. RESULTS & CONCLU-SIONS:The gene polymorphism can significantly affect the platelet activity. GPIII a PLA2,PEAR1 and PTGS1 alleles are associat-ed with aspirin resistance,and cardiovascular events have significant difference in different genotype patients. Adjusting reasonably dosage regimen and conducting individualized treatment according to the genetic testing result and other factors can reduce aspirin resistance and the incidence of cardiovascular adverse events in the patients.

Objective Acute aortic dissection occurs when a tear in the inside of the aorta causes blood to flow between the layers of the wall of the aorta,forcing the layers apart.In most cases this is associated with a sudden onset of severe chest or back pain,often described as "tearing" in character.The main management includes medication,endovascular repair and surgery.Medical management plays an very important role in the management of acute aortic dissection.Aortic dissection generally presents as a hypertensive emergency.Individuals can benefit from blood pressure control and anti-impulse therapy in perioperative period.

The CCAAT enhancer binding protein α (C/EBP α:p42 and p30),which encoded by CCAAT enhancer binding protein α () gene,plays a pretty crucial role in the regulation of myeloid hematopoiesis.The disorder of CEBPA gene expression is an pivotal mechanism of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The result of uncontrolled expression of C/EBP α gene is the over-expression of p30 and the incomplete loss of p42, both of which contribute to the occurrence of AML. Restoring the expression ratio of C/EBP α such as over-expression of p42 or blocking the carcinogenic pathway of p30 seems to be important for the treatment of AML caused by such causes. In order to better guide medical decision-making, this article reviews research progress on C/EBPα in the pathogenesis of AML.

Under the background of deepening the medical and health system reform, it is necessary to explore the measures of fine and rational drug use management and strengthen the rational drug use. Through giving full play to the management functions of pharmacy administration and pharmacotherapeutics committee, formulating the performance evaluation index system of pharmacy affairs in the hospital, adhering to the prescription doctor′s advice review and prescription pre audit, continuing to carry out drug dynamic monitoring, implementing standardized-path antimicrobial drug management, the hospital implemented refined and rational drug use management. Before and after the management, the average drug cost, prescription unqualified rate, auxiliary drug amount and antibacterial drugs related indicators were significantly improved, suggesting that fine pharmacy management could promote the rational use of drugs in the whole hospital, promote the transformation of pharmacists′ work, and control the unreasonable growth of drug costs.
