OBJECTIVE:To promote the implementation of essential medicine system by combining drug utilization research with national essential medicine system. METHODS:The importance of information monitoring in the implementation of essential medicine system was analyzed and the application of drug utilization research in the implementation of essential medicine system was also discussed. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:It is suggested that the indicators for example DDDs are used in the monitoring of clinical drug utilization,and conditions also should be created to carry out further research of drug utilization so as to promote the implementation of essential medicine system in China.

At the beginning of the 1980s, a concept of viable but non-culturable(VBNC) was suggested. VBNC is a survival strategy adopted by microorganisms when they are exposed to environmental stress. This article try to make a summary of research of the conditions of VBNC formation, recovery of culturability and methods of VBNC cells detection. In addition, introduces the first growth factor of microorganisms-Rpf.

Objective To observe the effect of sequential selection catheter combined with anisodamine in neurology catheterization patients about urine leakage to seek a new care pathway.Methods 240 cases of hospitalized neurology patients with indwelling catheter for a long time were randomized.The control group received conventional fixed-size catheter.According to the individual patient situation,the observed patients choose smallest model applicable Foley catheter when the initial catheterization,and increase the model sequential in turn periodic replacement of the catheter.The patients with leakage of urine were given anisodamine 10mg intramuscular injection,observe urine leakage rate of patients.Results The urine leakage rate was 6.67％ in the observation group which was significantly lower than 20.83％ in the control group(x2 =10.15,P ＜ 0.05),the intramuscular anisodamine efficient was 32/33 (96.97％).Conclusion Sequential selection catheter can significantly reduce the occurrence of urinary leakage,for patients with leakage of urine,anisodamine intramuscular injection can effectively control the leakage of urine,thereby greatly reducing the patient's pain.

Objective To investigate the accuracy of contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in diagnosing acute severe panereatitis.Methods Thirty three patients with acute severe pancreatitis were enrolled in the study and all of them underwent CEUS and spiral computed tomography(CT) scan.CT was taken as gold standard in acute severe pancreatitis diagnosis.CEUS were done within 72 hours after CT scan.Results Compared with CT, the sensitivity, specificity,accuracy, positive predictive value,and negative predictive value of CEUS for detecting the necrosis of pancreas were 90%, 95%, 94%, 90% and 95%respectively.The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value,and negative predictive value of CEUS in diagnosing severe acute pancreatitis were 85%, 92%, 88%, 94% and 80% respectively, while 37% ,86% ,58%, 78%, 50% for conventional ultrasound respectively.Conclusions CEUS is accurate in detection of pancreatic necrosis and diagnosis of acute severe pancreatitis.

Background Keratectasia after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is one of the serious complications which affect the vision.The measurement of cornea posterior elevation is an important way helping to find this change.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the change of cornea posterior elevation after LASIK in myopic eyes with astigmatism and affecting factors.Methods A series case-observational study was adopted.One hundred and twenty-seven myopic eyes with astigmatism of 66 patients who received LASIK in 2008 May through 2010 January in Beijing Tongren Hospital were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate the change of cornea posterior elevation following the LASIK.The parameters related to cornea posterior elevation were measured and compared before and 3 months,6 months and 1 year after surgery,respectively,with Oculyzer anterial segment analysis system.Results The height values from posterior cornea highest point,the lowest point and central vertex central elevation zone were (12.20±3.39),(-19.02±7.38) and (1.05 ±3.25) μm respectively before LASIK and were (14.38±3.80),(-18.55±7.11),(2.83±4.81)μm in3 months and (13.99±3.38),(-17.57±6.54),(2.45±4.61) μm in 6 months after LASIK.They were (14.40±3.85),(-17.76±6.00),(2.16±5.00) μm in 1 year after surgery.Significant increases were found in the vertex height and central elevation after LASIK compared with before surgery(highest pointq=6.813,5.594,6.875,all at P＜0.001.central vertex:q=4.488,P=0.002;q =3.530,P=0.013 ;q =2.799,P =0.047).However,no significant difference was seen in various time points after LASIK (P＞0.05).A positive correlation was obtained between the height value of the posterior cornea central vertex with the spherical equivalent (SE),maximum cutting depth or cutting proportion 1 year after LASIK (r =0.295,0.297,0.295,all at P=0.001),and there was a negative correlation between it with residual stroma (r=-0.208,P=0.019).The intraocular pressure (IOP) measured with noncontact tonometry (NCT) was (14.24±3.33) mmHg before LASIK,and those of 3 months,6 months and 1 year were (8.42± 1.90),(8.61 ± 1.64) and (8.76± 1.64)mmHg after LASIK,showing a significant lowing in IOP after LASIK in comparison with before LASIK (q =29.851,28.317,26.337,all at P＜0.001).But no significant change was found in the different time points after LASIK (P＞0.05).There was significant difference in the IOP corrected by Ehlers after LASIK (P＞0.05).The IOP before LASIK had positive correlation with the central elevation of posterior cornea surface 1 year after LASIK(r=0.258,P =0.003).Conclusions The cornea posterior elevation increases slightly early stage after LASIK but retains stable level with lapse of time.The refraction diopter before LASIK is the main factor affecting the posterior corneal shape.To reduce the risk of corneal ectasia,more attention should be paid to the reserving of appropriate corneal residual stroma and smallest degree of eccentricity during the ablation procedure.

Objective To explore the mechanism of lymphotactin(LTN) to exert mucosal adjuvant activity. Methods Complexes of chitosan-pVP1 and chitosan-pLTN were seperately prepared by co-cojugation method, then 50μg(DNA) of each complex was administered intranasally to male BALB/c mice 4times biweekly. Two weeks after the final immunization, mice were challenged with 3LD50 CVB3 to cause viral myocarditis, heart histopathological changes were examined 7 days later. Meanwhile, T cell immune responses, DC percentage and its membrane CD86 expression were monitored in spleen, mesenteric lymph node(MLN) and cervical lymph node(CLN). Results Co-immunizaiton with LTN remarkbly alleviated CVB3-induced cardial injury. This improvement was accompanied with enhanced T cell proliferation and IFN-γ-secreting ability, increased DC frequency and membrane CD86 expression both in spleen and mucosal draining lymph nodes( MLN, CLN). Conclusion LTN exerts its mucosal adjuvant function in augmenting specific T cell immune responses systemically and mucosally via DC enrichment in spleen, MLN and CLN and up-regulation of DC maturation.
