OBJECTIVE:To analyze the problems existing in the use of thiamphenicol for outpatients. METHODS:In this retrospective study,a total of 743 outpatient prescriptions of Thiamphenicol enteric-coated tablets in one hospital during Mar. 2008 were analyzed in respect of the prescription writing,medication suitability and amount of money of prescriptions,etc. RESULTS:The problems in the use of Thiamphenicol manifested as nonstandard in prescription writing,irrational in clinical drug choice,drug combination,administration and dosage,etc. CONCLUSION:The use of Thiamphenicol in the hospital is somewhat irrational thus remains to be standardized further.

Aromatic hydrocarbons are capital environmental contaminations. Pseudomonas alcaligenes NCIB 9867 (P25X) is capable of degrading aromatic hydrocarbons via the gentisate pathway. Biochemical characterization indicated that it has isofunctional enzymes for the mono- and dioxygenase- catalysed reactions. One set of the enzymes is constitutive and the other is strictly inducible. To date, only the genes for the constitutively-expressed gentisate dioxygenase and the downstream enzymes have been cloned. A mutant strain of P25X, designated SNZ28, which had the constitutive copy of the gentisate 1, 2-dioxygenase gene interrupted by a streptomycin/spectinomycin resistance gene cassette, was found to still express gentisate dioxygenase when induced by gentisate. The proteome profiles of P25X and mutant SNZ28, grown in the presence and absence of the aromatic inducer gentisate, were compared after 2D-PAGE. Fifteen distinctive protein spots which were observed only in induced cells of P25X and mutant SNZ28 but absent in non-induced cells of both were further analyzed by MALDI-TOF and Q-TOF. Of the 15 proteins, 12 showed significant sequence similarity to proteins with assigned function in other microorganisms . The identification of protein P4 which showed positive identification to a gentisate dioxygenase from Ralstonia species indicated the putative role of this protein to encode gentisate 1, 2-dioxygenase in P.alcaligenes.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the status quo and rationality of the perioperative use of drugs in patients with cataracta. METHODS:The drug use data of 60 patients undergoing cataracta surgery in our hospital from Apr. 2007 to Mar. 2008 were analyzed retrospectively and statistically. RESULTS:The drugs used during perioperative period consisted of antibacterials (applied either systemically or locally) and other assistant drugs (blood coagulants,drugs for decreasing intraocular pressure,anti inflammatory drugs and Chinese patent medicines). All the patients were treated with systematic antibacterials for prevention medication. The systemically used antibacterials consisted of ?-lactam antibiotics,clindamycins,aminoglycosides,fluoroquinolones and amphemycins. The problems existed in systemic use of the antibacterials manifested as irrationality in the choice of drug category,dosage,administration frequency,administration time and drug combination,etc. The locally applied antibacterials consisted of aminoglycosides,fluoroquinolones,tetracyclines and lincomycins. The problems existed in the local application of the antibacterials manifested as irrationality in administration time,drug change and drug combination,etc. CONCLUSION:The rationality of the perioperative drug use in patients with cataracta in our hospital remains to be improved.

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that overexpression of myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) and oligodendrocyte myelin glycoprotein (OMgp) is the main reason for early neuronal regeneration failure. OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cel s (hAMSCs) transplantation on neural functional recovery of rats with ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. METHODS:Sixty Sprague-Dawley were randomized into sham, I/R, and hAMSCs groups (n=20 per group). Rats in the hAMSCs group were given 1 mL of hAMSCs suspension (1.0×108/L) via the tail vein 24 hours after I/R injury. Rat neurological function recovery was assessed based on behavior changes, as determined by Longa behavioral score, cylinder test, horizontal ladder walking test and limb symmetry test at 1, 3 days, and 1, 2, 3 weeks post transplantation. Cel migration and distribution were observed using immunofluorescence method at 1 day, and 1, 2, 3 weeks post transplantation. MAG and OMgp protein expression was detected by western blot assay at 2 weeks post transplantation. Neuronal apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining at 3 weeks post transplantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the hAMSCs transplantation group, red marker-positive cel s were visible around the injury region at 1 week after transplantation, and over time, these cel s were increased in number. Significant improvement in the neurological function of rats were observed in the hAMSCs group as compared with the I/R group at 3 days and 1, 2, 3 weeks after transplantation (P<0.05), and the expression of MAG and OMgp proteins were also decreased dramatical y in the hAMSCs group (P<0.05). After I/R injury, the number of apoptotic cel s was increased, but hAMSCs transplantation reversed this effect. Overal , hAMSCs transplantation can reduce neuronal apoptosis by reducing MAG and OMgp expression levels, and thereby promote neurological functional recovery from I/R injury in rats.

Lactoferrin(LF) belongs to the transferrin family and is a multifunctional glycoprotein with a variety of biological activities, which not only binds to viral antigenic determinants to inhibit the recognition and binding of viruses to host cells,but also inhibits cell carcinogenesis through the production of thiobarbituric acid, malondialdehyde and other substances with strong antioxidant properties. In recent years, it has been found that in addition to its antiviral and anti-inflammatory functions, LF also has the ability to promote the repair of various types of damaged tissues. This paper mainly reviews the repairing and pro-repairing effects of LF after skin, muscle, bone, intestinal, brain and gingival injuries, aiming to elucidate the further application prospects of LF in the medical field.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of acupuncture and point injection in cooperation with Tuina and reposition for treating lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion.Methods: Treatment was given by first acupuncture, then point injection and last Tuina and reposition. It was administered once daily, 6 times as a course and compared with simple Tuina and reposition. Results: Both the effective rate in the clinical treatment and the cure rate in the same period were significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control group. Conclusion: A composite treatment by acupuncture and point injection in cooperation with Tuina and reposition is better in curative effect and shorter in the course of treatment than simple Tuina and reposition.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of rehabilitation training on restenosis following stent implantation in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease METHODS:A computer.based online search of VIP database was performed to search articles regarding restenosis following stent implantation and rehabilitation treatment for patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease,published between January 2000 and October 2009,with key words"coronary artery,stent implantation,intracoronary restenosis,rehabilitation exercise".The data were collected,and the references of each article were reviewed A total of 20 articles were included.RESULTS:Intracoronary stent has become an effective treatment for coronary atherosclerotic heart disease,and intracoronary restenosis has been focused in clinical studies.Prophase treatment following stent implantation is very important for coronary atherosclerotic heart disease.Rehabilitation exercise in combination with antiplatelet anticoagulatiOn and lipid treatment can reconstruct coronary arterial blood transport and significantly reduce incidence of restenosis and thrombus.CONCLUSION:Regular rehabilitation exercise following stent implantation can ameliorate degree of vascular restenosis.

Objective To propose a monitor failure diagnosis method based on fault tree theory to decrease maintenance cost and increase efficiency.MethodsBased on fault tree theory and maintenance practices,a typical fault tree analytical model was established on likely faults and possible causes.The model developed was applied to the quantitative analyses of kinds of probability events to determine the causes for the faults.Results The study on some kind of faults proved the accuracy,accessibility and practicability,which facilitated the maintainer to eliminate the fault.Conclusion The method determins the cause and probability of the fault directly,and contributes to rapid and convenient maintenance of the monitor.
