China Pharmacy 2017;28(16):2281-2283
OBJECTIVE:To compare the licensed pharmacist system in China and the USA,and to provide reference for im-proving pharmaceutical care and promoting public safety of drug use in China. METHODS:The relevant literatures in recent 10 years were retrieved from CJFD and Wanfang database. The differences of legal status,access qualification,legal obligations and responsibilities of licensed pharmacists in the USA and China were compared,and suggestions on improving the licensed pharma-cists system in China were put forward. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:At present,the problems of licensed pharmacist system in China are mainly that the legal status is not high,the access threshold is low,the legal obligations and responsibilities are not clear. However,the licensed pharmacist system in the USA has been developed for a century and formed a relatively strict legal sys-tem. Model State Pharmacy Act promulgated by National Association of Boards of Pharmacy in USA has clearly defined the access qualifications,legal obligations and responsibilities of licensed pharmacists. The pharmacy acts of the states were enacted on its blueprint. In view of current problems in China,it is necessary to learn from the above experience of the USA to improve the legal status,access qualification,legal obligations and responsibilities of licensed pharmacists and the quality of pharmaceutical care.

Objective To investigate the effect of penehyclidine (PHCD) pretreatment on Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) mRNA expression in the lung following acute lung injury (ALI) induced by hemorrhagic shock in rats. Methods Forty healthy SD rats of both sexes weighing 200-250 g were randomly divided into 5 groups( n = 8 each): group Ⅰ sham operation (group S); group Ⅱ ALI (group ALI); group Ⅲ, Ⅴ, PHCD 0.3,1.0, 3.0 mg/kg were given iv respectively at 30 min before hemorrhagic shock (P1-3). Hemorrhagic shock was induced by exsanguinations. MAP was maintained at 35-45 mm Hg for 60 min. The animals were killed at 4 h after resuscitation. Their lungs were removed for microscopic examination, W/D lung weight ratio and determination of TLR4 mRNA expression in the lung tissue (by RT-PCR). NF-κB p65 protein expression in the lung tissue was determined (by immuno-histochemical staining). Results Hemorrhagic shock significantly increased TLR4 mRNA and NF-κB p65 protein expression in the lung tissue and W/D lung weight ratio. Pretreatment with PHCD 1.0 or 3.0 mg/kg significantly inhibited hemorrhagic shock-induced increase in TLR4 mRNA and NF-κB p65 protein expression in the lung and W/D lung weight ratio. The lung injury was significantly ameliorated in group P2,3 as compared to group ALI. Conclusion PHCD pretreatment can attenuate ALI induced by hemorrhagic shock through down-regulation of TLR4 mRNA expression and decreasing NF-κB activity in the lung.

ObjectiveTo observe the protective effect of tetrahydroxystilbene glucoside (TSG) on rats' hippocampal neuronal damage induced by glutamate (Glu) in the culture.MethodsHippocampus was isolated from newborn SD rats and dispersedly cultured in the medium for 9 days. Neurons were incubated with TSG (5—100μmol/L) for 24h, the cells were washed twice with Lock's solution without Mg2+,then Glu 500 μmol/L was added. Thirty min later, the reaction was terminated by washing the monolayer cells twice with the Lock's solution and then cultures were kept at 37℃ for 24h. Cell viability was measured by MTT method and cell membrane damage was determined by LDH leakage; with Fluo-3/AM as an intracellular calcium indicator and added into the bathing medium, fluorescent intensity of intracellular free calcium were observed through laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM).ResultsAfter the treatment with 5—100μmol/L TSG for 24h, the decrease of cell viability and the increase of LDH leakage caused by Glu was obviously resisted dose dependently. TSG inhibited increase of Ca2+ in cytoplasm, compared with model group.ConclusionTSG can significantly promote the cell viability and reduce the cell membrane damage in Glu treating hippocampal neurons. The neuroprotective activities of TGS is mediated by inhibiting Ca2+ overload in cytoplasm.

Objective To study the gait footprint parameters of the normal children and the cerebral palsy (CP) children, and to explore its clinical value. Methods A total of 2 800 normal children aged 3 to 10 years and 139 spastic CP children aged 3 to 5 years were recruited in this study. The normal children were divided into seven groups with one year interval, and were measured with regard to the length of foot and step, step width and foot angle of footprint of every age group with self made oil printed carpet. The footprint of the CP children were measured and compared with that of the normal children at the same age. Results It was revealed that there was significant difference between the normal and the CP children ( P

Objective To study the expression of caspase-3,survivin,CyclinD1 and P27 in gastric carcinoma(CA2)and the relationship between the biomarkers and clinical pathological parameters. Methods Immunohistochemical Ready-to-use two-steps method was performed to research the expression of the four proteins in 72 cases of GC,and 54 cases of normal gastric mucosa.Results The expression level of caspase- 3 and p27 protein in GC was significantly lower than that in normal gastric mucosa(P

Objective To obtain more information concerning polymorphism of the thyrotropin (TSHR) in Graves diseases(GD). Methods (1)A family of GD was studied (including 3 patients and 9 healthy family members)to examine SNPs of TSHR through direct sequencing of all 10 exons and part of introns. (2)In the current case-control study, 30 patients with familiar GD, 48 sporadic patients and 96 healthy control individuals were used to assess whether SNP of TSHR was associated with GD. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral leukocytes isolated from ACD-anticoagulated blood. Ten exons were amplified by PCR, using primers designed by ourselves. After purifying, the products were sequenced. Results Eight polymorphisms were found. There was a novel polymorphism in exon 8. There were no significant differences between patients and controls. Conclusions These findings suggested that the novel and other polymorphisms of the TSHR gene may not be responsible for GD. There are racial differences in the distribution of polymorphisms of TSHR gene.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety,particularly eye safety of hydroxychloro-quine(HCQ)treatment in primary Sj(o)gren's syndrome(pSS)patients.Methods Forty pSS patients were en-rolled and treated with HCQ 400 mg/day for 12 months.This is a prospective open-label study.Clinical mani-festations,clinical efficacy,biochemical and immunoserological parameters as well as ophthalmological exami-nations were investigated every three months to assess the safety and tolerability.Results There were signifi-cant decrease in the erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),immunoglobulin G(IgG),immunoglobulin M (IgM)and rheumatoid factor(RF)level after 6 months treatment with HCQ(P<0.01 or P<0.05).No changewas detected in serum antinuclear antibody(ANA),anti-SSA/SSB antibodies after treated for 12 months.Somepatients had partial improvement in symptoms such as dry mouth,dry eyes and arthralgia.During the treat-ment,no significant effect on serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT),blood urea (BUN),serum creatinine (Cr),whole blood count(WBC)or hemoglobin(Hb)could be discovered.Central semus retinopathv(CSR)was found in one patient after 6 months treatment with HCQ.However,its association with HCQ could not be confirmed since it was not compatible with the usual HCQ retinopathy.Conclusion HCQ can improve svmp-toms of some pSS patients and can significantly decrease ESR,IgG,IgM and RF level.The safety profile of HCQ is generally good.However,ophthalmological examination before and after a 6-month interval may be necessary in long term HCQ treatment.

OBJECTIVE To detect the condition of bacteria of the air in wards of our hospital in order to reduce the possibility of air spread. METHODS Ten tuberculosis wards were chosen at random for study.Detected the bacteria content of the air in wards used before and after respectively and analysed the results. RESULTS The average of backgroud bacteria was 164 CFU/m 3 before the wards were used.Two years later,the average of bacteria increased to 682 CFU/m 3.The ratio was 1∶3:2 on average.There were significant differences between them. CONCLUSIONS Humen are the main facters that make the air polluted in these wards.The bacteria content will decline by good environment cleaning sanitation,ventilation and strengthening steriling management.Infection will decline in the hospital.
