Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2016;23(5):123-126
Objective To discuss the common deviation in TCM dispensing and corresponding measures. Methods Totally 103 cases of TCM deviation happened in the TCM dispensary of outpatient clinic in our hospital from September 2012 to September 2014 were selected. Retrospective analysis was conducted to analyze case related data collation and factors that affect the quality of TCM dispensing. Corresponding measures for each factor were designed.Results Age and gender of all the 103 cases showed no influence on the statistics of TCM deviation in the study. Among the 103 cases of TCM deviation, 41 cases were caused by factors about medicine. Among the 41 cases, 9 cases were about similar packaging; 12 cases were about similar medicine names; 2 cases were about quality problems; 18 cases were about lack of standardization in medicine placement. 33 cases were caused by factors about deployment, among which, 8 cases were about dosage error, 8 cases were about waste in the preparation process of TCM decoction pieces, 17 cases were about replacement of TCM decoction pieces. 29 cases were caused by factors about prescriptions, among which, 13 cases were about errors of prescription entering deviation, 11 cases were about prescription examining deviation, 5 cases were about ignorance of prescription footnotes. Conclusion Common deviation in TCM dispensing and the reasons are complicated. Timely and correct measures targeting them should be taken to improve the quality of TCM dispensing and guarantee safety.

Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2009;16(3):266-268
Objective To explore the mechanism of hypoxic-ischemic brain damage(HIBD) and provide new ideas for clinical treatment of hypoxic-iscbemic encephalopathy.Methods Neonatal 7-day-old Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham-operation control group,HIBD 6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h and 72 h groups(n =6 per group).The model of HIBD was induced by unilateral carotid ligation followed by timed exposure to 8% oxygen.The expression of MMP-9 mRNA and TIMP-1 mRNA in brain tissue of neonatal rats was measured by Real-time Q-PCR method.Results (1) The ligatod brainhemisphere of HIBD groups showed obvious edema from 12 h to 48 h after hypoxia -ischemia in the neonatal rats.(2) The expression of MMP-9 mRNA was very low in the sham-operation control group,but in HIBD groups,it began to increase at 6 h,and reached a peak at 24 h,then gradually decreased,but still maintained at high level at 72 h(P<0.01).(3) The expression of TIMP-1 mRNA was aslo very low in the sham-operation control group.But in HIBD group,it increased slightly at 6 h,12 h and 24 h,compared to the sham-operation control group,each group was statistically significant(P<0.05),with no significant difference among the three groups(P>0.05),then decreased at 48 h and 72 h,but with no significant difference from sham-operation control group (P> 0.05).(4) The ratio of MMP-9 mRNA/TIMP-1 mRNA was normal in the sham-operation control group and HIBD 6 h group,it began to increase at 12 h,and reached a peak at 48 h,then gradually decreased,but still maintained at high level at 72 h(P <0.01).Conclusion Hypoxia-ischemia increases the expression of MMP-9 mRNA in brain tissue of nenatal rats,and the imbalance in the expression of MMP-9 mRNA and TIMP-1 mRNA possibly is one cause of brain edema induced by HIBD.

Objective To explore the epidemiologic and clinical features of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) caused by Coxsackie virus A16 (CA16) in Suzhou from 2010 to 2014, and analyze the relationship between the SNPs of oligoadenylate synthetase 1 (OAS1) and HFMD caused by CA16 infection.MethodsThe clinical data of children diagnosed with HFMD caused by CA16 during 2010 and 2014 were collected. The epidemiological characteristics were analyzed. Among them, 167 cases were selected to make comparison of the clinical features with 166 cases of HFMD caused by EV71 infection in the same period. The genotyping ofOAS1 rs10774671 was detected by TaqMan probe technique in 167 cases of CA16 infection children, 166 cases of EV71 infection children with HFMD and 163 healthy children. The relationship between polymorphism of gene and infection of CA 16 was analyzed.ResultsA total of 9 016 children with HFMD were included. CA16 nucleic acid detected to be positive in 762 cases. The detection rate was 8.45%. CA16 infection was most commonly in summer. Children under 5 years old accounted for 94.62% infected. Compared with EV71 infected children, CA16 infected children had shorter fever time, severer oral herpes, ulcer, and rash in hand, foot and hip, lesser nervous system involvement, fewer cases of high lactate dehydrogenase, high C reactive protein, high IgM or IgG, and signiifcant changes in the percentage of CD3+, CD3+CD4+, CD3+CD8+ and CD3-CD19+ (P all?0.05). The frequency of GG genotype was significantly higher in CA16 infected HFMD children inOAS1 rs10774671 compared with healthy children (P=?0.475). There was no difference in the genotype OAS1 distribution of rs10774571 between common and severe CA16 infected HFMD group (P=?0.475).ConclusionThe epidemiology of CA16 infected HFMD disease in Suzhou area was related with age and season. CA16 infected HFMD children have different clinical features and laboratory characteristics.. Children withOAS1 rs10774671 GG genotype were more susceptible to CA16.

BACKGROUND:Machinable bioglass-ceramics became a new inorganic biomaterial; moreover, strength, toughness and machinability are significantly studied.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of ZnO, Fe2O3 and ZrO2 additives on the microstructure and properties of machinable bioglass-ceramic in K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-F system.DESIGN: Observational contrast study.SETTING: Department of Orthopaedics, Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the Laboratory of Materials, Wuhan University of Technology from October 2003 to April 2004. K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2Os-F system, ZnO, Fe2O3 and ZrO2 additives, D/Max-ⅢA X-ray diffractometer (Japan), JSM-5610LV scanning electron microscope (SEM), HVS-1000 microhardnessmeter and 3257-35 magnetic testing device (Japan) were used in this study.METHODS: In the glass-ceramic of K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-F system, three kinds of additives ZnO, ZnO-Fe2O3 and ZnO-Fe2O3-ZrO2 were added respectively. These three kinds of ceramics were prepared by being melted at 1 400 ℃ for 1 hour. After fire, crystal temperature was set based on differential thermal analysis curve. ① Physical properties: Microhardness was determined with microhardnessmeter (HVS-1000). The flexural strength and fracture toughness were established measured with ceramic mechanical test system (MTS) method and single edge notched beam (SENB) method, respectively. Saturation magnetic moment and Curie temperature were determined with 3257-35 magnetism test machine made in Japan. Holing method was used to measure machinability. ② Test of crystalline phase and microstructure: Crystalline phase analysis was carried out with X-ray diffraction (XRD: D/Max-ⅢA) and microstructure analysis were conducted on an etched fracture surface using SEM (JSM-5610LV,Japan). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Effects of ZnO, Fe2O3 and ZrO2 additives on physical properties, mineral composition and crystalline phase.RESULTS: ① The addition of ZnO to the glass-ceramic in K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-F system was beneficial to crystal growth, increasing aspect ratio of crystal, decreasing microhardness and improving toughness and machinability. ② The addition of ZnO-Fe2O3 to the glass-ceramic in K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-F system can form minority Mg-Zn ferrite with magnetism. The main crystalline phase present in the glass- ceramic was diopside with small size and hardness was improved, which led to worse machinability. ③ Because of the addition of ZnO-Fe2O3-ZrO2, magnesia fluormica and fluorapatite became the main crystalline phases, and the minor phases including Mg-Zn ferrite, t-ZrO2 and m-ZrO2, etc.also presented in the glass-ceramic. This material possessed high strength and toughness, good machinability and magnetism, which could stimulate formation of new bone, and was good substitute of bone restorations. Bioassay and in vitro test indicated that the glass-ceramic in K2O-MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-F system was bioactive and biocompatible. CONCLUSION: ZnO, Fe2O3 and ZrO2 additives play a significant role in changing crystalline structure, enhancing strength,toughness and machinability of machinable bioglass-ceramic and generating magnetism.
