One case with dedifferentiated liposarcoma in proximal tibia accompanied by angiosarcoma was analyzed. The dedifferentiated liposarcoma was further analyzed by imaging, clinical and pathological features. One 51-year-old male patient was suspected to bone tumor due to space occupying lesion for 6 days in left proximal tibia and admitted in Changhai Hospital of Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA in May 2007. The clinical features, including onset features, physical examination, blood routine, imaging alterations, pathological characteristics, operation approach, and follow-up period were retrospectively analyzed. The tumor was treated by curettage and inactivation, iliac grafting, bone cement filling, tibial plateau T type plate and screw internal fixation and tumor tissue biopsy. However, tumor relapsed 40 days postoperatively, and the patient was treated by amputation surgery. Two weeks after surgery, the patient developed emptysis and died due to multiple organ failure. Dedifferentiated liposarcoma accompanied by angiosarcoma displays no noticeable characteristics in imaging, clinical manifestation, and laboratory examination, which make it difficult to diagnose it. This tumor is highly malignant, and has short disease course, and poor prognosis.

Objective To explore the effect of intracoronary injection of epinephrine and Vera Pammy in patients with myocardial infarction with slow blood flowduring percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).MethodsFrom January 2013 to October 2016, 68 patients with acute myocardial infarction with solw blood flow in Shanghai Jiading Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine during PCI were randomly divided into the epinephrine group(37 cases) and the verapamil group(31 cases).The two groups were treated with conventional drugs before surgery.The epinephrine group were injected into the coronary artery of 50 micrograms of epinephrine, the Vera Pammy group were injected into 200 micrograms of Vera Pammy.The coronary angiography, blood flow dynamics, as well as biochemical indexes in the two groups were observed.ResultsAfter the initial medicine, the ratio of TIMI flow grade 3 in the epinephrine group 81.80% was significantly higher than that in the Vera Pammy group 64.52%(P<0.05).The ratio of TIMI flow grade 3 after three times treatment, CTFC value after initial and 3 times treatment between the two groups have no significance.The blood pressure in the epinephrine group was (82.67±10.87) mmHg, which was significantly higher than that in the Vera Pammy group (70.46±9.54) mmHg(P<0.05).NT-proBNP, cTnT, LVEF in the two groups have no significance.hs-CRP in the epinephrine group was (7.68± 0.76) mg/L, which was significantly lower than that in the Vera Pammy group (9.25±1.05) mg/L.ConclusionThe effect is different which epinephrine and Vera Pammy were used in the patients with myocardial infarction with slow blood flowduring percutaneous coronary intervention.The use of epinephrine can significantly increase blood pressure, and the effect of initial medication is better.

Objective:To explore novel compounds with anti-EV71 activity. Methods: A series of oligopeptides were designed based on the active groove of the EV71 3C protease using molecular simulation technology. Furthermore, some oligopeptides were syn-thesized and tested for the inhibition ability against EV71 in vitro. Results:Pentapeptides had higher binding affinity to the EV71 3C protease than the other oligopeptides, such as compounds 25 and 16. Therefore, compounds 25 and 16 were synthesized and tested in vitro for the anti-EV71 activity, and compound 25 exhibited potent anti-EV71 activity(EC50 =1. 36 μmol·L-1, CC50 =211. 94 μmol ·L-1, SI=155. 84), while compound 16 had no evident effect on EV71. Conclusion: It is worthy of further investigation on com-pound 25 as a novel scaffold of anti-EV71inhibitor.

Objective To observe the regularities of distribution of TCM syndrome types and correlation between TCM syndrome types and cardiovascular prognosis risk factors of elderly hypertensive patients in three different urban and rural communities.Methods Totally 299 elderly hypertensive patients who conformed to the hypertensive diagnostic criteria from 896 respondents which participated in the health monitoring questionnaire drafted by health management team of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences were screened. The syndrome types were differentiated according to Guiding Principle of Clinical Research on New Drugs of Traditional Chinese Medicine (for Trial Implementation). The levels of some risk indicators, such as blood glucose, blood lipid, CREA, ET, Hcy and mALB were measured by radioimmunoassay, enzymatic cycling assay and other methods. Age, gender, BMI and pulse pressure were recorded.Results The TCM syndrome types of 299 elderly hypertensive patients were deficiency of yin and yang type (74 cases), hyperactivity of yang due to yin deficiency type (65 cases), blood stasis syndrome type (62 cases), stagnation of phlegm-dampness type (61 cases), hyperactivity of liver-fire type (37 cases). Single factor analysis showed that there existed statistical significance among BMI, FBG, GHbA1c, CREA, TC, LDL-C, ET, Hcy and mALB in the 5 TCM syndromes (P<0.05,P<0.01), and the statistical significance was more apparent in the stagnation of phlegm-dampness type, blood stasis syndrome type and hyperactivity of yang due to yin deficiency type. Discriminant analysis showed BMI and Hcy have certain reference value for the diagnosis of TCM syndrome types in elderly hypertensive patients. Binary-Logistic regression analysis showed that the course of disease had a positive correlation with syndrome of deficiency of yin and yang.Conclusion Compared with other types of elderly hepertensive patients, stagnation of phlegm-dampness type and blood stasis syndrome type are more closely related to hypertension cardiovascular prognosis risk factors.

With dwindling number of new antibiotics and inappropriate use of antibiotics, the emergence and spread of antibiotics resistance occurs commonly in healthcare institutions worldwide. In China, antibiotics are commonly overprescribed and misused. This study is to assess the effect of the nationwide special campaign on antibiotic stewardship program (ASP) at specialized hospitals in China by investigating prescription information from 2011 to 2012. Data on the hospital consumption and prescription of systemic antibiotics were obtained from four specialized hospitals, including maternity, children's, stomatological and cancer hospitals. Systematic random sampling was used to select outpatient prescriptions and inpatient cases. A total of 105 specialized hospitals in 2011 and 121 specialized hospitals in 2012 were analysed. The defined daily doses (DDDs) per 100 inpatient days, the percentage of antibiotic use in outpatient prescriptions, and the percentage of antibiotic use in inpatient cases were used as measurements of antibiotic use. The overall antibiotic use density in the selected hospitals decreased between 2011 and 2012 from 39.37 to 26.54 DDD/100 inpatient days (P<0.001). The percentage of antibiotic use in outpatient prescriptions (range: 24.12%-18.71%, P=0.109) and inpatient cases (64.85%-60.10%, P=0.006) also decreased within the two years. Significant changes were observed among regions and different hospitals within the two years. And antibiotic consumption was correlated with the type and size of specialized hospital in 2012, but not with the regions. This analysis of antibiotic consumption of specialized hospitals allows relevant comparisons for benchmarking and shows that national ASP has improved antibiotic rational use in China. The data will assist policymakers in formulating effective strategies to decrease antibiotic overuse and identify areas that require further work.
