Objective To analyze the characteristics of allopurinol hypersensitivity syndrome(AH),and pro-vide reference for clinical rational drug use.Methods AH cases induced by oral allopurinol administration were col-lected by dermatologists from January 1995 to January 2015 in our hospital,and 6 cases of the AH were statistically analyzed.Results All cases of AH were male and characterized by skin lesions,fever and damage of liver and kidney function.Although promptly managed,1 case of AH was mainly systemic damaged and died of multiple organ failure and the rest of those cases recuperated.Conclusion AH is an severe complication induced by allopurinol.The clini-cal medication should be strictly monitored in accordance with the instructions to reduce the incidence of AH and ensure medication safety.

Objective To prepare a harmine hydrochloride liposome formulation with high encapsulation efficiency. Methods Preformulation investigation was carried out to obtain the drug physicochemical properties such as solubility and lgD in buffers of different pH value. Harmine hydrochloride was encapsulated into liposomes by active loading method. Encapsulation efficiency of liposomes was determined after the free drug was separated from liposome by ultrafiltration. The influence factors on the encapsulation efficiency including drug-lipid weight ratio, incubation temperature, pH value of external water phase were investigated. Results As the pH value increasing, the solubility of harmine hydrochloride was decreased, while the apparent oil-water distribution coefficient was increased. By active loading method, the encapsulation efficiency could be over 80% when the drug to lipid weight ratio was under 1∶5. The pH gradient between intervesicle and intravesicle obviously influenced the encapsulation efficiency, while incubation temperature had little effect on encapsulation efficiency. Conclusion Active loading is suitable for preparing harmine hydrochloride liposome with high encapsulation efficiency.

Codon usage bias is an important characteristic of genetic information transfer in organisms. Analysis of codon usage bias of different species is important for understanding the rules on genetic information transfer. The previous method for analysis of codon usage bias is mainly based on genomic data. However, this method is greatly limited, because the genome sequences of higher organisms are still not available up to now. In this study, we found that we could obtain the same optimal codons of Ganoderma lucidum (Curtis: Fr.) P. Karst based on its whole genomic data or large-scale transcriptomic data from its liquid-cultured hyphae, primordium and fruiting body, separately. This result indicated the feasibility to understand the codon usage bias based on the large-scale transcriptomic data. By calculating the proportion of rare codons of Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae in 26 terpene synthases (TS) of G. lucidum, we found that the rare codons of S. cerevisiae have a higher proportion in TS genes, while the rare codons of E. coli have relatively lower, suggesting that the TS genes of G. lucidum are possibly more difficult to be expressed in S. cerevisiae than in E. coli. Chemical synthesis of TS genes according to the yeast optimal codons will be an effective way to solve the problem on the mismatch of gene codon bias between the foreign genes and the host strain.

Objective To explore the effect of skin expansion by B- mode ultrasound with modified Seldinger technique (MST) on preventing puncture site bleeding after the catheterization in breast cancer patients. Methods One hundred chemotherapy breast cancer patients who need to be catheterized PICC were recruited to participate in a randomised controlled trial in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute& Hospital, China. Fifty were assigned to the experimental group (using Intra- thecal intubation sheath), and 50 were assigned to the control group (expansion skin by scalpel). The two groups used modified Seldinger technique (MST) during the procedure of ultrasound guided PICC insertion, Patients errhysis and average frequency of dressing- change were collected for 1 week since catheterization to compare the effects of the two methods. Results Patients′errhysis and average frequency of dressing- change were (0.491±0.241) ml, (1.060±0.239) times in the experimental group, significantly lower than (2.903±1.046) ml, (3.500±0.646) times of the control group (t=15.889, 25.049, P < 0.01). Conclusions This study showed a lower incidence errhysis of skin expansion by intra- thecal intubation sheath used for PICC insertion. This technique deserved clinic application in PICC.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Wenshen Xiaochuan Paste Recipe (WXPR) in preventing bronchial asthma, and to explore the mechanism. Methods Eighty patients were randomly divided into treatment group and control group. Each group had 40 patients. The control group was treated by conventional western medicine such as inhalation of steroid, and the treatment group was given oral use of WXPR based on the treatment for the control group. Treatment for both groups covered 60 days, and the follow-up lasted 10 months. The clinical outcomes included the clinical efficacy and immune indexes of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets CD3+, CD4+, CD8+and CD4+/CD8+ratio, and the serum IgE level. Results (1) After treatment and 12 months later, the scores of asthma control test (ACT ) in the two groups were increased obviously as compared with those before treatment, and there were statistically significant differences (P<0.05 or P<0.01) . The differences of ACT scores between the two groups were insignificant after treatment ( P>0.05) , but were significant ( P<0.05) 12 months later. (2) Within one year after treatment, the frequency of acute asthma attack was decreased in both groups (P<0.05 compared with that before treatment), and the treatment group had better effect on decreasing the attack frequency than the control group (P<0.05). (3) After treatment, the serum IgE, CD4+level, and CD4+/CD8+ ratio were decreased significantly, while CD8+ level was increased in the treatment group, and there were statistically significant differences ( P<0.05 compared with those before treatment). However, the differences of immune indexes in the control group were insignificant before and after treatment ( P>0.05). The improvement of immune indexes in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion WXPR has good clinical efficacy in preventing and treating bronchial asthma. The mechanism is related with the inhibition of airway inflammation and improvement of immune function probably through regulating T lymphocyte subsets and lowering serum IgE level in asthma patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of propofol on the brain injury in children undergoing open heart surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods Thirty children aged 4-10 yr undergoing repair of ventricular septal defect or atrial septal defect under CPB were randomly divided into 2 groups ( n = 15 each):control group (group C) and propofol group (group P). Anesthesia was induced with iv injection of sufentanil 1 μg/kg, propofol 2.5 mg/kg (midazolam 0.2 mg/kg in group C) and pipecuronium 0.1 mg/kg in group P. Anesthesia was maintained with iv infusion of 1％ propofol 6 mg·kg-1 ·h-1 (0.05％ midazolam 0.2 mg·kg-1 ·h-1 in group C) until the end of operation. Isoflurane ( 1％-2％ ) were inhaled during the operation in all patients. Sufentanil 1 μg/kg and pipecuronium 0. 1 mg/kg were injected intravenously after the start of CPB. A catheter was inserted into right internal jugular vein and advanced cephalad until jugular bulb for blood sampling before CPB, at 30 min of CPB, at the end of CPB, at 30 min after termination of CPB, at the end of operation, and at 24 h after termination of CPB to detect the plasma concentrations of 8-iso-PGF2 and S-100β by ELISA. Arterial and jugular bulb venous blood samples were collected for determination of SjvO2 before CPB, when naso-pharyngeal temperature was reduced to 30 ℃, when naso-pharyngeal temperature returned to 36 ℃ and at the end of CPB. Cerebral arterial venous oxygen content differences ( Da-jvO2 ) and cerebral oxygen extraction rate of oxygen ( CEO2 ) were calculated. Results Plasma concentrations of 8-iso-PGF2α and S-100β were significantly lower, SjvO2 was significantly higher, Da-jvO2 and CEO2 were significantly lower in group P than in group C (P ＜ 0.05＝. ConclusionPropofol can reduce the brain injury in children undergoing open heart surgery during CPB and the mechanism is related to decrease in cerebral oxygen metabolic rate and lipid peroxidation.

BACKGROUND: Common complication of traditional joint replacement is hip joint dislocation and large head joint implant can effectively solve this problem. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the preliminary efficacy of large head metal-on-metal implants for patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Prospective cohort study. The patients were selected from Department of Joint Surgery, Xinjiang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between February 2007 and January 2008. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 65 patients (71 hips) undergoing large head metal-on-metal implantation in Xinjiang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were selected, including 21 females and 44 males with an average age of 54.6 years (ranging 19 to 77 years). Of them, there were 28 cases of necrosis of the femoral head, 24 of hip osteoarthritis, 9 of femoral neck fracture and 4 of acetabular dysplasia. METHODS: According to age, sex, cause of disease and preoperative joint function, the patients were divided into traditional prosthesis (n=30, 33 hips, metal-on-polyethylene implant) and large head M-O-M group (n=35, 38 hips, ASR/XL prosthesis, DePuy, Motech, Warsaw, IN, USA). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The pre and postoperative Harris scores for the hip, range of motion, periprosthetic radiolucency, leg-length inequality and complications were recorded and compared. RESULTS: All patients were followed-up. The traditional group was followed up for 20 months (ranging 13-28 months), and the large head M-O-M group was followed up for 17 months (ranging 10-26 months). The mean Harris score was 89 points (ranging 59-98) in traditional group, and 94 points (ranging 71-100) in large head M-O-M group (P=0.014). The range of motion of hip was improved, and the large head M-O-M group (34?) was superior to traditional group (26?, P=0.004) at 6 months after surgery; the range of motion was improved 27? in traditional group and 37? in large head M-O-M group (P=0.009) over 1 year of follow up. The leg-length inequality was 4 mm (2-11 mm) in large head M-O-M group and 7 mm (5-16 mm) in traditional group (P=0.005). Both groups exhibited periprosthetic radiolucency (≤1 mm, 2 cases in traditional group and 3 cases in large head M-O-M group). One patient in the traditional group suffered dislocation. CONCLUSION: The large head M-on-M implants in total hip arthroplasty has excellent short-term effects on patients compared with traditional prosthesis. They offer the more stability and better restoration of hip articulation function and biomechanical reconstruction.
