Clinical efficacy,the rate of nacterial smear negative conversion and ADR were observed in 2 groups. RE-SULTS:The total effective rate of observation group was 92.50%,which was significantly higher than that of control group (76.67%);the rate of nacterial smear negative conversion was 72.00% in observation group,which was significantly higher than that of control group(42.10%);the incidence of ADR was 7.50%in observation group,which was significantly lower than that of control group (13.33%),with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Caspofungin acetate is effective for IPFI with low incidence of ADR.

OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban in the treatment of pulmonary embolism. METHODS:100 patients with pulmonary embolism were selected and randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 50 cases in each group. Both groups were given nursing intervention for rehabilitation. Observation group was treated with riva-roxaban 15 mg,bid,for consecutive 3 weeks,3 weeks later adjusting to 20 mg,qd;control group was given low molecular weight heparin 1 mg/kg,bid,combined with warfarin sodium 5 mg,qd,for more than 5 days,stopped taking low molecular weight heparin until the INR reached the target 2-3 and given warfarin alone orally. Treatment course of 2 groups lasted for 3 months. Clinical efficacy of 2 groups were observed,and PaO2,PaCO2 and D-dimer levels were observed in 2 groups before and af-ter treatment;the improvement of clinical symptoms as cough,pectoralgia,dyspnea,and the incidence of ADR were recorded in 2 groups. RESULTS:The total effective rate of observation group (90.0%) was significantly higher than that of control group (74.0%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). After treatment,PaO2,PaCO2 and D-dimer levels of 2 groups were increased signif-icantly,compared with before treatment;the observation group was higher than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The remission rate of clinical symptoms as cough,pectoralgia,dyspnea in observation group was significantly higher than in control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). The incidence of ADR in observation group (12.0%) was significantly lower than in control group (30.0%),with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Rivaroxaban supplemented by reasonable nursing intervention can effectively improve clinical efficacy of patients with pulmonary embolism with low incidence of ADR.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the pharmacodynamics and therapeutic effect of Jiakang Ⅰ oral liquid.METHODS:The drug actions of tapazole,NS and Jiakang Ⅰ were compared in the animal model of hyperthyroidism.205 hyperthyroidism cases were treated with Jiakang Ⅰ in a double blind design and the therapeutic effect was observed.RESULTS:Pharmacodynamic observation revealed that Jiakang Ⅰ could decreased T3,T4 and increase TSH significantly in rats.Compared with control group treated with tapazole or NS,in Jiakang Ⅰ group,T3 and T4 were obviously reduced and TSH was increased and the clinical symptoms were alleviated without any marked adverse reaction.CONCLUSION:The hyperthyroidism animal model can be applied to evaluating the pharmacodynamic effect of Jiakang Ⅰ.This drug has satisfactory therapeutic effect on hyperthyroidism.

Objective To explore the specific role of autophagy and ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in apoptosis, specific protease inhibitor and (or) macroautophagy inhibitors.Methods The stimulators were selected to work on the pheochromocytoma (PC12) cell lines transfected with human mutant α-synuclein (A53T).Cell activity and apeptosis rate were detected by MTT law and flow cytometry.NO energy, heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) and Caspase-3 expression were determined in cell culture.Results A53T cell survival rate significantly decreased 24 hours after handling with the protease inhibitor (100 nmol/L) and (or) autophagy inhibitors 3-MA (10 mmol/L, A =0.23±0.01,0.19±0.01 and 0.17±0.01 respectively; P <0.05) compared with the control group (A =0.32±0.06).Cell survival rate was significantly higher than the other drug group after 24 hours handling with autophagy stimulators (A =0.44±0.08).Compared with the control group or autophagy stimulator of rapamycin (0.2 μg/ml) group (1.55%±1.15%), A53T cells apeptosis percentage rate was significantly higher after treated with proteasome inhibitor and macroautophagy inhibitors 24 hours (4.74%±0.91%, 4.59%±1.18% and 5.40%±1.75%respectively, P <0.05); and a slight decrease with stimulators.Protein Hsp70 and NO were significantly higher in proteasome inhibitor groups than the control group.But in antophagy inhibitor and stimulator group, NO and Hsp70 protein was similar to the control group.Conclusion The inhibition of macroautophagy and proteasome can promote apoptosis.Inhibiting or stimulating autophagy has less impact on Hsp70 and NO than proteasome pathway.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution of pathogenic bacteria in blood culture and their drug-sensitivity in our hospital in the past year.METHODS The blood samples were cultivated in the BacT/Alert 3D system and the isolated colonies were identified by the VITEK32 system or traditional routine procedures.The K-B method was carried out for the drug-sensitivity festing.RESULTS From the 716 blood samples received,we identified 109 strains of pathogens in which Gram-positive cocci accounted for 50.46%,Gram-negative bacilli for 44.04% and fungi for 5.5%.CONCLUSIONS There are many kinds of pathogens identified from blood culture and they have high resistance to many antibiotices.It is very important for doctors to get the results of blood culture in time in order to give the patients correct antibiotic therapy and to improve the cure rate and to control cross-infection in hospials.

Objective To investigate the influence and mechanism of erythropoietin (EPO) in renal blood flow after limb ischemia reperfusion (LIR). Methods Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into control group, LIR group and EPO+LIR group with ten in each group. The values of renal blood flow, plasma creatinine (Cr), urea nitrogen (BUN) content in plasma, kidney tissue wet to dry ratio (W/D), nitric oxide (NO), nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) in re-nal tissue were detected in three groups. The immunohistochemistry assay was used to detect the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM-1) in renal tissue. The morphological changes of renal tissue were observed with light microscope. Results The renal blood flow was significantly decreased, while the val-ues of Cr, BUN, W/D, NO, ET-1, NOS, expressions of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 was significantly increased in LIR group than those of control group (P<0.05). Broaden interstitial and infiltration of inflammatory cells were observed in the renal tissue under light microscope. In the EPO+LIR group, the renal blood flow increased, the values of Cr, BUN, W/D, NO, ET-1 and NOS, expressions of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 decreased significantly compared with those of LIR group (P<0.05). The patho-logical changes were alleviated in EPO+LIR group. Conclusion EPO can improve renal function, increase renal blood flow in rats after LIR. The mechanism may be related to the decreased edema, changed renal vasomotor function and decreased in-flammation.

Objective To study dynamically the correlation between endotheliocyte functions,inflammation-related factors and TCM syndromes in sepsis patients.Methods According to the TCM syndrome differentiation,68 septic patients were divided into Qi-fen group (23 cases),Ying-fen group (28 cases),and Xue-fen group (17 cases).The control group (26 cases) was built up for contrast.Serum von willebrand factor (vWf),nitric oxide (NO),tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?),interleukin 6 (IL-6),interleukin 2(IL-2),interleukin 4 (IL-4),and white blood cell (WBC) count of all groups were measured.Results TNF-?,IL-6,and WBC in all the sepsis groups were significantly higher than those in the control group (P

Objective To determine the relationship between serum soluble Klotho (sKL) level and adverse outcome in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods One hundred and twenty nine cases of MHD patients were collected prospectively.Serum sKL was detected by ELISA.Abdomen lateral plain was used as a criterion to determine the abdominal aortic calcification.The abdominal aortic calcification score (AAC) was calculated.Cox regression analysis was used to determine the risk factor of cardiovascular death (CVD) in MHD patients.Kaplan-Meier showed the relationship between sKL and CVD in MHD patients.Results There were 27 cases (20.9％) of allcause death and 19 cases (14.7％) of cardiovascular death.The median sKL was 612.6(379.2-816.6) nig/L,and log[iPTH] was an independent factor of sKL concentration.Low sKL had high AAC and CVD death rate.Kaplan-Meier method showed that the all-cause death rate was similar between two groups,and CVD death rate increased significantly in low sKL patients (P=0.036).Cox regression indicated that lower sKL level was associated with high CVD death rate [OR=0.352,95％CI(0.127-0.977),P=0.045].After adjustment for the general condition,biochemical indicators,the relationship still existed [OR=0.331,95％ CI (0.117-0.933),P=0.037].In no or mild vascular calcification patients (AAC ≤4),compared with high sKL patients,low sKL patients had no significant difference rate in all-cause mortality.The CVD mortality was significantly higher in high sKL (P=0.035) compared with low sKL.In severe calcification group (AAC ＞ 4),all-cause death and CVD death rates were similar between different sKL groups (P=0.991 and 0.522,respectively).Conclusions Lower sKL has the high CVD death rate and sKL level decreasing is an independent risk factor for CVD death in MHD patients.The lower sKL concentration in MHD patients with no or mild calcification may predict CVD mortality.This study suggests that sKL levels may be helpful in predicting the outcome of patients with MHD.
