OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the status quo and tendency of the utilization of lipid-lowering drugs in our hospital.METHODS:The utilization of lipid-lowering drugs in our hospital between 2005 and 2008 was analyzed statistically by ranking consumption sum and DDDs.RESULTS:The consumption sum of lipid-lowering drugs had a sharp increase during 2007～2008 as compared with 2005～2006,its proportion in the drugs for cardiovascular diseases increased to some degree.During 2007～2008,Statins took the first two places on the annual consumption list,its use gained popularity and its DDDs increased.The application of Fibrates also took an upward trend.CONCLUSION:The use of lipid-lowering drugs in our hospital had been on the rise,with Statins and Fibrates took the predominant places,which is in line with the requirement of evidence-based medicine.

The effect of traditional therapy is limited for liver cancer,gene therapy gets more and more recognition in recent years.Oncolysis virus is a kind of conditionally replicating virus,with special reproductivity in cancer cells,and then kills them.Gene agents are usually introduced into tumor tissue by intra-tumor and intra-arterial injection,and the technique of interventional therapy is able to satisfy the demand excellently.So,some breakthrough is expected in treating liver cancer by skillfully combining oncolysis virus and interventional technique

In recent years, the number of outpatients in stomatological hospital is in increasing year by year and being accompanied by the corresponding medical risks. One of the risks which may endanger the patient life is medical emergency which need emergency treatment by the dentists in dental clinical practice. The most common emergency type is syncope, followed by hyperventilation, drug overdose, adrenaline reaction and hypertension, etc. Unexpected events mainly occurred at the end of the treatment and before leaving the dental clinic, during or immediately after the local anesthesia, in the treatment process. Tooth extraction related emergency is the most frequently occurring emergency, followed by the local anesthesia related ones. It's strongly suggested that dentists should pay more attention to outpatient clinical emergency treatment, and related knowledge and skills training should be offered to improve the ability to handle medical emergencies.

[Objective]To probe the probability of autologous platelet-rich glue(PRG) combined with particulate of cancellous bone in treating the aseptic tibial nonunion.[Method]Sixty patients with tibial nonunion in distal 1/3 fragment were randomly divided into 2 groups.Each group had thirty patients.PRG combined with particulate of autogenous cancellous bone was transplanted in the experimental group while particulate of cancellous bone was applied in the control group.The mean time to the operation was 10.5 months(7-36 months) and the average age were 38 years old.The postoperative systemic and local reaction,and X-ray finings of tibial nonunion were observed.The average follow-up was 22 months.According to the Johner-Wruh scoring system the results were statistically analyzed.[Result]At 8 months bony union was all achieved.There was a remarkable difference between those of experimental and control groups.[Conclusion]PRG had an important role in speeding bone healing,and the combination of PRG and particulate of autogenous cancellous bone is an ideal alternative of bone transplantation.

Objective To observe the relationship between blood stasis syndrome and clinical pathology in patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Methods Clinical and pathological materials of 42 patients with blood stasis syndrome,and 73 patients with non blood stasis syndrome were analyzed. Result Patients with blood stasis syndrome are often female and accompanied with renal dysfunction. Compared with patients of non blood stasis syndrome,Lee’s grades were obviously higher,degrees of fibrinogen-related antigen (FRA) deposited in renal were stronger,and scores or ratio of tubular atrophy significantly were higher. Conclusion Blood stasis syndrome of IgAN is correlated with certain renal pathological changes. Blood stasis is the main etiological factor.

AIM To investigate the effect of Supplemented Buyang Huanwu Decoction (Astragali Radix,Angelica tail,Paeoniae Radix rubra,etc.) on blood glucose in diabetic rats and its antioxidant activity.METHODS The diabetic rat model induced by streptozotocin (STZ) was established,with metformin as positive control group.After intragastric administration with Supplemented Buyang Huanwu Decoction,the fasting blood glucose,superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) content in serum and tissues (heart,kidney and pancreas) in rats were detected.HPLC was used to determine the contents of antioxidant constituents (calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside and peoniflorin) in plasma,whose pharmacokinetic parameters were then calculated.RESULTS Compared with the model group,the hypoglycemic activity in the Supplemented Buyang Huanwu Decoction group was obvious (P ＜ 0.05),the SOD activity in serum and various issues (except for pancreas) was significantly enhanced,together with significantly reduced MDA level (P ＜ 0.05).The pharmacokinetic behavior of two constituents (calycosin-7-O-3-D-glucoside and peoniflorin) accorded with two-compartment open model,whose blood concentrations reached the highest within 50-70 min,and showed no obvious changes within 180-720 min.CONCLUSION Supplemented Buyang Huanwu Decoction can reduce the blood glucose in diabetic rats and improve the antioxidant activities in heart and kidney.The fast absorption and slow metabolism of calycosin-7-O-3-D-glucoside and peoniflorin in decoction are beneficial to related treatment.

Objective To study the clinical features and treatment of horizontal canal benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (HC-BPPV).Methods The clinical features of 27 patients with HC-BPPV and the treatment results with otolith repositioning maneuver of Barbecue rotation were analyzed retrospectively.Results All the patients with HC-BPPV had vertigo attack and this kind of vertigo attack presented with some characters such as brief, positioning, latency and no fatigability. Geotropic nystagmus was seen in 21 patients and apogeotropic nystagmus was seen in 6 patients when head was turned to either side in supine position. After Barbecue rotation, all symptoms disappeared in patients with geotropic nystagmus and did not change in patients with apogeotropic nystagmus.Conclusions The diagnosis of HC-BPPV is based on typical clinical features and test of turning head to either side in supine position. Geotropic nystagmus is associated with canalithiasis and apogeotropic nystagmus is associated with cupulolithiasis, and the therapy of Barbecue rotation is very effective to HC-BPPV patients with geotropic nystagmus.

Objective To summarize the experience of interventional catheterization conjoined with cardiac surgical procedures performed in 23 children with congenital heart disease(CHD). Methods 12 cases with residual patent ductus arteriosus after surgical ligation and 2 postoperative cases with severe cyanosis CHD with leftover ventricular septal defect (VSD) received transcatheter closure procedures. 2 children with branch pulmonary stenosis after total correction of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) received angioplasty and stent placement, respectively. Another postoperative case with aortopulmonary collateral arteries (APCAs) angiorrhexis underwent transcatheter haemostasis. 6 cases underwent interventional catheterization in the preoperative period. 5 cases with transposition of great arteries (TGA) underwent balloon atrial septostomy (BAS) before artery switch procedure and 1 case of TOF underwent APCAs transcatheter occlusion before total correction. Results All cases with residual left to right shunts after surgery were occluded by transcatheter therapy. Interventional catheterization procedure relieved stenosis of branch pulmonary artery in postoperative case with TOF. Haemorrhage was stopped with embolization of ruptured APCAs. Hypoxia and acidosis improved after BAS therapy in 5 cases with TGA and intact ventricular septum and 3 survived from following artery switch procedure while 2 died. The APCAs was transcatheter occluded before TOF total correction. Conclusion Interventional catheterization therapy conjoined with cardiac surgical procedure was an effective and essential method in some postoperative CHD cases and in some of complex cyanosis CHD cases.
