Objective To investigate the pharmaeokinetics of levofloxacin in rat's pancreatic tissue. Methods Pancreatic tissue and blood were sampled in vivo by microdialysis simultaneously. The concentrations of levofloxacin in beth blood and tissues were measured by high performance liquid chromatography. All date were analyzed by WinNonlin software. Results The maximum concentration of free levofloxacin in blood and pancreatic tissue were (65.23 ± 12.9) μg/ml at 10min and (30.56±3.22) μg/ml at 20 min, respectively, then beth continuously decreased. Concentration of free levofloxacin in pancreatic tissue was higher than that in blood from 20min to 100min, then returned to similar level. The area under the concentration curve(AUC)of unbound levofloxacin was(2465.11±258.56)min·μg~(-1)·ml~(-1) in pancreas,and (2914.38±205.73)min·μg~(-1)·ml~(-1) in blood.Conclusions Microdialysis with reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography established in this essay could be used to determine the pharmacokinetics of levofloxacin objectively. High concentration of levofloxacin in pancreatic tissue and blood was observed.

Objective:
To understand the epidemiologic characteristics of fall in the elderly in Shanghai, as well as the differences between urban and rural areas, and provide evidence for targeted fall prevention and intervention.
Methods:
From January to March in 2017, a questionnaire survey was conducted in the elderly aged 60 or above selected from 7 urban communities and 6 rural communities in Shanghai to understand the epidemiologic characteristics of fall in the elderly and analyze the gender and urban-rural differences.
Results:
In urban area, a total of 3 386 elderly people were surveyed, in whom 441 (13.0

ObjectiveTo assess the direct economic burden and influencing factors of road traffic injuries in Shanghai, providing a basis for future prevention of road traffic injuries. MethodsInformation of inpatient cases caused by road traffic injuries was collected from 22 pilot hospitals in Shanghai that participated in the registration and reporting system of injury hospitalizations from 2017 to 2020. The main content of the collected information included basic demographic information, total hospitalization costs for injuries, mode of transportation, cause of injury, nature of injury, location of injury, and hospital level. Univariate analysis was used to analyze the average hospitalization costs and length of hospital stay between different years. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to analyze the median hospitalization costs and the median length of hospital stay between different years, and the median hospitalization costs of different groups. A full subset regression model in multivariate regression was used to explore the main influencing factors of hospitalization costs. ResultsA total of 4 655 patients were hospitalized with road traffic injuries, including 2 675 males (57.47%) and 1 980 females (42.53%). The average age was (53.84±15.37) years old, with a minimum age of 4 years old and a maximum age of 97 years old. 1 907 patients (40.97%) had non-motor vehicle accidents, and 2 748 patients (59.03%) had motor vehicle accidents. The average hospitalization cost is 23 245.71 yuan, with a median of 9 793.94 yuan. The average length of stay was 13.61 days, with a median stay of 10.00 days. The main factors affecting hospitalization costs included year, nature of injury, location of injury, length of hospital stay, and hospital level. ConclusionRoad traffic injuries seriously affect the health of middle-aged and young people, especially vulnerable road user such as pedestrians and cyclists, causing serious injury and an increase of direct economic burden year by year. Therefore, road traffic injury prevention projects should be actively carried out to reduce the occurrence of injuries.

ObjectiveTo analyze the characteristics of hospitalized unintentional injuries and to provide evidence for formulating injury prevention and control strategies. MethodsDescriptive analysis was conducted on injury information of unintentional injury cases reported from 22 monitoring hospitals during 2017 to 2020 by injury surveillance system. The composition ratio index was used to analyze and explore the distribution(population, time and place)of injuries related to different causes. The disease burden was described by the length of hospital stay and hospitalization cost. ResultsA total of 32 716 hospitalized unintentional injury cases were reported from 22 monitoring hospitals. The male to female ratio was 1.18∶1. The majority of males were aged 15‒64 years and the majority of females were aged over 45 years. The top three causes of injuries were falls, traffic-related and blunt injury. Injuries occurred more frequently in July and August. 42.81% of the cases occurred at home. Fracture cases accounted for 75.79%. The median length of hospital stay was 10 days and the median cost was 15 431.50 yuan. The share of both falls and non-motor vehicle accidents increased year by year. ConclusionFalls among elderly people and road traffic injuries are the main causes of hospitalized unintentional injuries, and sharp or blunt instrument injuries are more severe in the male workforce. Considering high direct and indirect economic losses from injuries, steps should to be taken to improve injury surveillance system and to implement injury prevention and control strategies targeted on key groups and key injuries.
