Chongqing Medicine 2016;45(18):2467-2470,2474
Objective To study the effect of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the process of adenosine triphos‐phate (ATP) activating BV2 microglia .Methods BV2 microglia was cultured by adding different concentrations of ATP .Then the expression level of intracellular CD11b and BDNF and the secretion level of TNF‐α in the supernatant were quantitatively deter‐mined by Western blot .BV2 microglia was treated by different concentrations of BDNF scavenger tyrosine kinase receptors B (TrkB)/Fc and incubated by ATP .The expression level of intracellular CD11b and BDNF and the secretion level of TNF‐αin the supernatant were measured .Finally adding exogenous recombinant BDNF into cultured BV 2 microglia ,intracellular changes of CD11b and supernatant TNF‐αlevels were detected .Results After adding ATP for cultivating BV2 microglia ,intracellular CD11b and BDNF expression levels and supernatant TNF‐αlevel were increased with a dose‐and time‐dependent manner in some ranges . After adding TrkB/Fc ,the levels of intracellular CD11b and BDNF expression and supernatant TNF‐αlevel were decreased with a dose‐and time‐dependent manner in some range .CD11b and BDNF expression levels was decreased in a dose‐and time‐dependent manner .Adding exogenous BDNF ,the levels of intracellular CD11b and BDNF expression and supernatant TNF‐α level were in‐creased again .Conclusion Intracellular BDNF expression is increased when BV2 microglia is activated and replenishing exogenous BDNF can activate microglia .Therefore BDNF may play an important role in the microglia activation process .

Objective To investigate the characteristics of ocular surface inflammation index after pterygium excision by using Oculus Keratograph(R) 5M and Visual analogue scale and evaluated the effectiveness of antiinflammatory treatment.Methods A prospective case control study was performed.Eighteen patients (6 males and 12 females) who suffered from primary pterygium were recruited in Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center from June to September 2016.All patients were treated with monocular pterygium excision combined with amniotic membrane transplantation.Anti-inflammatory treatment was given after surgery,and the ocular inflammation index was evaluated at preoperative and 1st,3rd,7th,10th,30th and 60th day postoperative.The temporal conjunctival hyperemia index (TCHI) was assessed by Oculus Keratograph(R) 5M with a red eye index analysis software.Ocular symptom scores (OSS) and visual analogue scale (VAS) were used to analyze the subjective symptoms of the patients.Fluorescein staining was used to detect the epithelization of corneal and scleral wound.The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA),intraocular pressure and complications were evaluated in this study.This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center of Sun Yat-sen University (2016KYPJ024).All patients signed informed consent for clinical research.Results No drug-related ocular and systemic adverse events were found during the follow-up.Corneal epithelial defect was recovered on 10th day,and conjunctival epithelization was observed in sclera exposed area on 30th day.The BCVA on the 60th day was 0.12±0.17,which was significantly lower than 0.34±0.36 preoperatively (t =3.401,P =0.003).Compared with those before surgery,OSS and VAS were significantly increased on 1 st day (OSS:Z =-4.255,P =0.000;VAS:Z =-5.256,P =0.000).The OSS on 7th day was not significantly different from that before surgery (Z=-0.958,P=0.372).VAS decreased to baseline on 30th day.The OSS on 60th day after surgery was significantly lower than that before surgery (Z =-2.397,P =0.037).TCHI was higher than 1.2 preoperatively,and increased to the highest on 1 st day after surgery,with significant difference between them (t=-6.620,P=0.000).The TCHI decreased to baseline on 7th day,no significant difference were obtained when compared with preoperative TCHI (t =-1.050,P =0.310),and TCHI on 60th day after surgery was lower than that before surgery,with significant difference between them (t =2.758,P =0.020).Conclusions The subjective symptoms combined with conjunctival hyperemia can be more accurate assessment of ocular surface inflammation in the perioperative period of pterygium surgery,which can be used as an evaluation index to assess the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory treatment.

In recent years, the rapid increase in cancer treatment costs in China had brought a huge economic burden to society, and it was urgent to standardize the rational application of anti-tumor drugs. In the context of the reform of group payment related to disease diagnosis, a tertiary first-class hospital focused on the needs of patients and guided by value-based healthcare, established a professional and normalized refined anti-tumor drug management system, setted up a multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment team, and promoted " Internet plus pharmaceutical services" in December 2018.From 2019 to 2021, the proportion of hospital drugs were 30.8%, 30.1%, and 27.3%, respectively. The amount of money spent on anti-tumor drugs were 83.25 million yuan, 76.41 million yuan, and 62.48 million yuan, respectively, showing a decreasing trend year by year. The practice of refined management of anti-tumor drugs fully reflected the core concept of value based healthcare, achieving closed-loop management of the entire process of drugs, improving the level of rational drug use, reducing the economic burden on patients, and providing reference for improving the level of rational use of anti-tumor drugs in public hospitals.
