OBJECTIVE: To analyze the characteristics of adverse drug reaction (ADR) induced by Levofloxacin (LVFX) injection and to promote rational use of drugs in the clinic. METHODS: 137 LVFX injection-induced ADR cases reported in our hospital during 2006～2009 were collected and analyzed statistically with Excel in respect of age, gender, medication and clinical manifestation, etc. RESULTS: ADR cases occurred nearly in all ages of people, and 32.85% were appeared in people over 60 years. Main clinical manifestations were lesion of skin and its appedants (62.04%) and gastrointestinal injury (16.06%). Most of them were mild and medium ADR. CONCLUSION: Great importance should be attached to the rational use of LVFX injection and ADR monitoring to guarantee the safety of patients.

Objective To investigate the changes of ultrastructure and Bax,Bcl-2 expression of cerebral cortex in lymphostatic encephalopathy(LE).Methods LE models were established by occluding and removing both the shallow and deep cervical lymph nodes in rats.Ultrastructural changes of the cerebral cortex were observed at 1 d,2 d,3 d,5 d,7 d and 14 d after operation.Expression of Bax and Bcl-2 were examined by Western blot.Results Brain edema appeared under electron microscope in LE model group.The perivascular spaces in the cortex were enlarged and full of fluid,the dropsical nerve fibers had swelling and fragmented myelin sheath.Some neurons showed apoptotic conformation and some had characters of necrosis.The changes mentioned above were the most serious at day 5.The protein expression of Bax,Bcl-2 and the ratios of Bax/Bcl-2 in LE 3 d,5 d,7 d groups were significantly higher than those in normal control group(all P

Objective To observe the DNA damage in the human lung fibroblasts(HLF)induced by insoluble nickel compounds(Ni3S2 and Ni2O3)and soluble nickel compound(NiSO4),and to study the mechanism of carcinogenesis.Methods The DNA damage of HLF cells treated with different concentrations of Ni3S2,Ni2O3 and NiSO4 were detected with the method of single cell gel electrophoresis(SCGE).Results All of the three kinds of nickel compounds significantly caused DNA damage in HLF cells,the average tail moments of all nickel-treated groups were larger than those in the control group(P

ObjectiveTo detect methylation status of the 5'CpG island locating in the promoter region of p27 gene in gastric carcinoma and to analyze the relationship between the aberrant methylaion of p27 gene and the bionomics of gastric carcinoma.MethodsMethylation-specific PCR were used to detect the methylation status of p27 in gastric carcinoma( n =49), adjacent tissue of carcinoma ( n =20) and normal tissue(n =10), respectively.ResultsThe mathylation rate is 49％ (24/49) for gastria cancer, 25％(5/20) for tumor-sideward mucosa and 0 (0/10)for normal mucosa.There was a significant positive correlation between gastric carcinoma specimens and normal mucosa specimens ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). There was no significant diference between normal gastric group and tumor-sideward mucosa group ( P ＞ 0. 05 ) and no significant diference between tumor-sideward mucosa group and tumor group ( P ＞ 0. 05 ). The mathylation rate of p27 gene with lymph node metastases (61％) are higher than those without metastasis (28％) (P ＜ 0. 05). And there is no relation on patients' age, sex, tumor size and location.Conclusionp27 gene methylation of the p27 gene is correlated to oncogenesis and metastasis of gastric carcinoma and could lead to the loss of p27mRNA transcription.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of MMP-3 in knee joint synovium of different stage in osteoarthritis (OA) patients. Methods MMP-3 protein were detected by immunohistochemical method in knee synovial tissues from 90 OA patients (the OA group) and OA group was divided into 3 subgroups according to Kellgren and LawrenceX-ray diagnosing standards: the gradeⅠ(n = 30), gradeⅡ (n = 30) and grade Ⅲ subgroups (n = 30). 30 patients were enrolled as control group. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of MMP-3 protein in the tissue. Results The expression level of MMP-3 protein in OA group was significantly higher that in the normal synovium (P < 0.05). There existed significant difference in the expression of MMP-3 protein between the grade Ⅲ subgroup and the gradeⅠ, or Ⅱsubgroups (P < 0.05). The expression of MMP-3 protein related positively to the severity of OA (r = 0.912, P < 0.05). Conclusion The expression of MMP-3 protein related closely to the pathogenic mechanism of OA. It may serve as an important indicator of early diagnosis and the activity of OA.

Objective To approach the design and clinical application of large anterolateral thigh flap and its effect in wound repair.Methods The flaps were designed according to the anatomical features of perforating branches in the anterolateral thigh flaps.When a flap was chipped,a thick branch or a terminal branch of original vessel was reserved,another suitable perforating branch was selected in the proximal or distal end of the flap,and then the two vessels were anastomosed to enlarge the range of blood supply.If the vessel pedicle of a flap was a musculocutaneous perforating branch,the perforating branch of anastomosis was cut at out-point of muscle.If the vessel pedicle of a flap was a intermusclar branch or a direct skin artery,the perforating branch of anastomosis was cut widely.From May 2006 to May 2012,the technique was applied in 28 patients with large skin defect of limbs.The diameters of perforating branches obtained at out-point of muscles were measured during surgery.The survival of flaps was observed after surgery and complications in donor sites were checked during follow-ups.Results There were 18 flaps whose vessel pedicle were musculocutaneous perforating branches.The branches were cut at outpoint of muscles.The diameters of these vessels were measured during surgery.They ranged from 1.3 mm to 1.8 mm with an average of 1.45 mm.All of the vessels could be anastomosed.All 28 flaps survived.All flaps survived.The areas of the flaps ranged from 22 cm × 15 cm to 42 cm × 14 cm.Artery crisis happened in 2 flaps whose vessel pedicle were musculocutaneous perforating branches.The second look operation found that the areas of artery anastomosis of perforating branches and vessel pedicles were compressed by hematoma and thrombus formed.The 2 flaps survived after the hematoma was cleared away and the vessels were reanastomosed.There were no infections.Both the donor and recipient site healed by first intention with no necrosis of flap margin.All 28 patients were followed up by 4-13 months with an average of 8 months.There were no apparent collapse deformities,muscle necrosis,declines of muscle strength and muscle hernia in the donor sites.The appearance of flaps was flat,the color was close to normal and the quality was fine.Conclusion It is a safe and effective method to repair wound surface by large anaterolateral thigh flap obtained by the modus operandi of perforating branch anastomosis.
