OBJECTIVE: To investigate the features of adverse drug reaction(ADR) in our hospital and evaluate the quality of ADR report in order to promote rational clinical drug use and find out the existing problems in the report. METHODS: Microsoft Excel was designed to analyze statistically the sex and age of the patients,category of the used drugs and the clinical manifestations of ADR in 311 cases of ADR report collected between 2002 and 2005.RESULTS: The occurrence of ADR induced by antibacterials ranked the first.ADR affecting skin and its appendages counted for 50% of the total.The numbers of ADR reports were found to be less than expected.CONCLUSIONS: Professional staff training should be strengthened,the use of antibacterials should be rationalized to lessen and avoid the occurrence of ADR.

Aim To investigate the age-related changes of TrkB mRNA in hippocampal formation of aged rats,and the effects of ginsenosides(GS),and provide reliable experimental evidence for anti-aging.Methods 24 Wistar female rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: Young,aged and GS group(fed with GS from 17 to 27 months).In situ hybridization(ISH) method was applied into qualifying and quantitating the TrkB mRNA expression in hippocampal formation.Results TrkB mRNA expression in aged CA3,CA1 and dentate gyrus decreased by 24.2%,13.4% and 50.6%(P

HIF-1 is composed of HIF-1α and HIF-1β subunits. It promotes target genes transcription under hypoxia and plays essential roles in cell development, physiological adaptations, and pathological processes. In the past 10 years, the research on signaling pathways of HIF-1 in response to cell hypoxia stress, especially on HIF-1α-mediated gene transcription has made great progress.

Objective To study the relationship between hepatocellular carcinoma and the interaction of polymorphisms in DNA repair gene XPD with environmental factors. Methods A hospital-based ease-control study on hepatoeellular carcinoma was conducted. All the hepatocellular carcinoma eases (n=300) were newly diagnosed and controls (n=312) were diagnosed with non-tumor cases. XPD genotype (Lys751 Gin and Asp312 Ash) from blood derived DNA was determined using TaqMan MGB Real-time PCR. Unconditional logistic regression was used to estimate the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results For XPD condon 751 genotypes, there was no significant difference between frequencies of the AC or CC among patients and controls (P>0.05) (referent AA). The frequency of XPD312A allelic gene was higher in eases than that in controls and was associated with an increased risk (adjusted OR = 2.62,95% CI: 1.626-4.222) for hepatocellular carcinoma when compared with GG genotype. Interactions were found between infection of HBsAg and XPD312 (OR=7.348), as well as between smoking and non-wild type gene of XPD751 (0R=4.291) and XPD312 (OR=5.341). Conclusion DNA repair XPD312A allelic gene might increase the risk of Hepatocellular carcinoma. Interactions between HBsAg infection, smoking and XPD were observed in Hepatocellular carcinoma.

The clinical value of transvaginal ultrasound in clinical surgical treatment of cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) was evaluated.The clinical data of 104 patients with CSP admitted at Tongji Hospital from 2013 to 2016 were collected and analyzed retrospectively,including the patients' age,gestational age,the size of gestational sac or uneven mass,the uterine scar thickness,β human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels and so on.Of these 104 cases,30 cases were subjected to laparotomy,29 cases to laparoscopy,27 cases to hysteroscopy,16 cases to ultrasound-guided uterine curettage,and 2 cases to conservative treatment.The transvaginal ultrasound showed that uterine scar thickness and gestational sac or uneven mass size had significant difference (P＜0.05) among different surgical methods by comparatively analyzing the patients' data.It was suggested that transvaginal ultrasound may provide the valuable reference for choosing clinical surgical procedures for CSP.

The enzyme-inhibitor model and the sugar tolerance mouse model were used to evaluate the relationship between the inhibition rate of enzyme activity and concentration of Hippophae rhamnoides L. subsp. chinensis Rousi polysaccharide (HRP). The inhibitory patterns of enzyme and dose-dependent effects of HRP's effect on blood glucose using acarbose tablets as control were also examined. The mechanism underlying hypoglycemic effects of HRP was discussed. The results showed: in the enzyme-inhibitor model, the inhibitory activity of different concentrations of HRP (9.80, 19.60, 39.20, 78.40, 156.80 and 312.50 mg x L(-1)) on alpha-glucosaminidase (AG) inhibitory activity were 6.62%, 18.02%, 33.26%, 48.23%, 62.11%, 76.31%, 90.12%, IC50 was 31.59 mg x L(-1). The inhibitory rate of 25.00 x 10(3) mg x L(-1) acarbose tablets was only 64.87%, and IC50 was 10.75 x 10(3) mg x L(-1). In the sugar tolerance mouse model, different doses of HRP (240, 480, 960 mg x kg(-1)) tended to decrease levels of blood glucose compared with control group (acarbose tablets 375 mg x kg(-1)) at 15, 30, 60 and 120 min. It's further confirmed that HRP is a kind of competitive inhibitor of AG activity. Its inhibition rate increases with the increase of concentration in normal mice, and it subsequently improves the sugar tolerance showing the effect of reducing blood sugar.

OBJECTIVEIn children with congenital heart diseases who have undergone surgical interventions, postoperative arrhythmias frequently complicate the clinical course. "Incisional" atrial tachycardia or flutter is one of the most common forms of postoperative arrhythmias in these patients and can lead to significant morbidity and even mortality. The aim of this study was to investigate how to use antiarrhythmic drugs and the CARTO system to treat these cases.

METHODSThere were 12 patients with "incisional" atrial tachycardia or flutter complicating surgery for congenital heart diseases in this study (3 patients with correction of tetrology of Fallot, 3 with atrial septal defect repair, 2 with ventricular septal defect repair, 1 with switch, 1 with repair of Ebstein's anomaly, 1 with total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage, and 1 with atrial septal closure with the Amplatzer septal occlusion). Patients whose body weight was less than 10 kg or those who did not wish to accept ablation were treated with antiarrhythmic drugs, including digitoxin, propranolol, metoprolol and cordarone. CARTO system was used to map 6 patients whose body weight was more than 10 kg and who agreed with accepting ablation for atrial tachycardia and flutter. Radio-frequency ablation was performed in these 6 cases including two cases of "incisional" atrial tachycardia and 4 of atrial flutter.

RESULTS(1) The antiarrhythmic drug was successful in 6 patients with "incisional" atrial tachycardia. (2) Six patients including 2 children with "incisional" atrial tachycardia and 4 children with atrial flutter were successfully ablated. But one case of "incisional" atrial tachycardia relapsed after 3 months of ablation. This case, however, was successfully ablated again later. No further relapse was observed during the 2 - 24 months of follow-up.

CONCLUSIONAblation of "incisional" atrial tachycardia and flutter is the first choice to treat the patients whose body weight is more than 10 kg and those who agree with accepting ablation by CARTO system. Drug therapy of "incisional" atrial tachycardia and flutter is palliative and it is the only selection to treat the patients whose body weight is less than 10 kg or those who do not wish to accept ablation procedure.
