Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2021;28(3):366-369
Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of linezolid combined with levofloxacin in the intensive treatment of tuberculous meningitis.Methods:Seventy-six patients with tuberculous meningitis who underwent intensive treatment from May 2015 to April 2018 in the Fourth People's Hospital of Taiyuan were included in this study. They were assigned to a control group ( n = 38) and an observation group ( n = 38) according to treatment methods. The control group was given conventional treatment (isoniazid + rifampicin + pyrazinamide + ethambutol). The observation group was given treatment with linezolid combined with levofloxacin based on conventional treatment. All patients were treated for 8 successive weeks. Clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups. Results:Total effective rate and the incidence of complications were 92.11% (35/38) and 5.26% (2/38) respectively in the observation group, and they were 68.42% (26/38) and 23.68% (9/38) respectively in the control group. There were significant differences in total effective rate and the incidence of complications between the two groups ( χ2 = 6.727 and 5.028, both P < 0.05). After treatment, white blood cell count, blood glucose level, and protein level were (30.21 ± 4.16) × 10 6/L, (3.65 ± 0.32) mmol/L and (0.79 ± 0.05) g/L, respectively in the observation group, while they were (54.28 ± 6.42) × 10 6/L, (2.18 ± 0.21) mmol/L, (0.98 ± 0.21) g/L, respectively in the control group. There were significant differences in white blood cell count, blood glucose level and protein level between the two groups ( t = 19.396, 23.675, 4.538, all P < 0.05). There was significant difference in the score of quality of life between the control and observation groups [(187.59 ± 4.11) points vs. (216.94 ± 3.90) points, t = 31.933, P < 0.05]. Conclusion:Linezolid combined with levofloxacin based on conventional treatment exhibits better clinical efficacy with high safety in the intensive treatment of tuberculous meningitis than conventional treatment.

In order to observe the damaged nerve successively, we used superficial magnetic stimulation motor evoked potential (MEP) in the pathological model of chronic compressed nerve of the cervical nerve roots of cats. We synthesized various change of the pathomorphology of the nerve damaged to different degrees, and discussed the relationship between the MEP and the pathomorphologic change of chronic compressed nerve roots. The results showed that the initial pathologic change of nerve with myelin was degeneration of myelin shealth. The MEP of the nerve also showed increased latency and dispersed wave forms. After that the axon of the demylinated nerve degenerated, splitted and had a peripheral Wallerian Degeneration. The MEP showed an increased latency along with decreased amplitude. The degree of the MEP's change accompanyed with pathologic change. So we believe that the magnetic compressed nerve. It has some reference value in figuring out the damage by analysing factors.

Objective:To explore and discuss the differences of pregnancy contents and inform formats in in-formed consent form ( ICF) for the drug clinical trial between China and foreign countries. Methods:We collected Chinese and foreign ICFs for drug clinical trial that had been audited by the Ethics Committee of the third Xiangya Hospital for the past five years. Based on the relevant domestic and foreign law, we concluded the element stand-ards and inform formats about pregnancy inform. By analyzing the integrity of the whole elements, the inform rate of every element and the using rate of every inform format, we compared the differences of pregnancy contents and in-form formats between Chinese ICFs and foreign ICFs. Results:The total number of ICFs was 177 in this study, in-cluding 107 Chinese ICFs and 70 foreign ICFs. The integrity rate of pregnancy in Chinese ICFs was statistically lower than them in foreign ICFs (19% vs. 56%, P=0. 000). Compared with foreign ICFs, the low informed ele-ments were the study of the pregnancy risk (32% vs. 73%, P=0. 000), the pregnancy test during the following-up period (33% vs. 56%, P=0. 002) and the measurements for contraception (22% vs. 53%, P=0. 000). Conclusion:The integrity level of pregnancy content in Chinese ICFs was lower than that of the foreign ICFs. And the three elements including pregnancy risk study, pregnancy test during the following-up period and measure-ments for contraception was obviously defected. Pregnancy informing forms of informed consent in China was inferi-or to abroad.
