OBJECTIVE:To explore the role of clinical pharmacists in the therapy for patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) complicated with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA). METHODS:Clinical pharmacists participated in the therapy for a AECOPD patient with ABPA. According to patient's con-dition,clinical pharmacists suggested adjusting the inhalation order of salbutamol and budesonide aerosol inhalation;stop-ping cefatriaxone and adjusting to intravenous injection of voriconazole;and then adjusting voriconazole to oral dosage form timely,monitoring therapy duration. Clinical pharmacists paid close attention to therapeutic efficacy and ADR,and provided medication education for patients. RESULTS:Physicians adopted the suggestion of clinical pharmacists to adjust inhalation order of aerosols,the dosage and route of administration of voriconazole. The patient's condition was improved obviously,and the drug therapy was continued after discharge. CONCLUSIONS:Clinical pharmacists participating in the whole process of treatment improves therapeutic efficacy,reduces the occurrence of ADR and promotes rational drug use in clinic.

Diabetic cardiomyopathy(DCM) is a disease independently related with coronary artery atherosclerotic heart disease, hypertensive heart disease, valvular heart disease, congenital heart disease and other heart diseases that are uniquely associated with diabetes mellitus, and the pathological manifestations of DCM are mainly myocardial hypertrophy, interstitial fibrosis, necrosis and apoptosis.Endoplasmic reticulum is the central location of many important cellular functions, and endoplasmic reticulum swelling and functional disorder in diabetic cardiomyocytes, high blood sugar can cause endoplasmic reticulum stress, suggesting that endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS) may be involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy and development.Based on this, this paper summarizes the progress of ERS in diabetic cardiomyopathy from the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy, unfolding protein reaction and the related role of ERS in DCM.

BACKGROUND:The degradation of extracellular matrix, which is mediated by matrix metal oproteinases, plays a crucial role in the corneal neovascularization. Tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2, a new type serine proteinase inhibitor, can effectively inhibit the activity of matrix metal oproteinases.
OBJECTIVE:To elucidate the effect of tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2 on the expressions of matrix metal oproteinases in keratocytes in vitro.
METHODS:Rabbit keratocytes were primarily cultured and subcultured in vitro. Plasmid vector pBos-Cite-neo/TFPI-2 was transfected into keratocytes with Lipofectamine 2000. The positive cells were selected using G418.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The results of reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, western blot analysis and gelatinase zymography analysis showed that, expression of mRNA and protein of tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2 was upregulated in the transfected keratocytes (P<0.05), while activity of matrix metal oproteinase 1 and 2 was significantly decreased (P<0.05). Experimental findings indicate that that tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2 strongly inhibits the activity of matrix metal oproteinase 1 and 2 in keratocytes.

Objective To observe the curative effect of pricking bloodletting combined with acupuncture on patients with piriformis injury syndrome.Methods A prospective randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted, 84 patients with piriformis injury syndrome admitted to the Department of Acupuncture and Massage in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from May 2011 to May 2014 were enrolled, and they were divided into observation group and control group by random number table, each group being 42 cases. The patients in the observation group were treated with bloodletting once a week (after bloodletting no other treatment was given), and then once a day of acupuncture was performed for 4 days in a week, completing one therapeutic course; while in the control group, the patient was treated with routine acupuncture once a day for 5 days in a week, finishing one therapeutic course. The interval between two therapeutic courses was 2 days, two courses were carried out, and afterwards the clinical therapeutic effects were evaluated in the two groups. The changes of visual analogue scale (VAS) of two groups before and after treatment and the therapeutic effects were observed.Results The VAS score of the two groups after treatment was lower than that before treatment, and the degree of decrease of VAS score in the observation group was significantly lower than that of thecontrol group (1.50±1.35 vs. 2.69±1.68,P < 0.01); the total effective rate in the observation group was obviously higher than that in the control group [100.00% (42/42) vs. 69.05% (29/42),P < 0.01].Conclusion Pricking bloodletting combined with acupuncture therapy for treatment of piriformis injury syndrome can shorten the course of treatment.

Objective To investigate the correlation of serum anti-M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) antibody with laboratory parameters of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) in adult patients with membranous nephropathy (MN),and to explore the role of anti-PLA2R antibody in the pathogenesis of IMN. Methods Forty-six adult patients with biopsy-proved glomerular diseases were involved in this study,including 20 cases with IMN,7 cases with IgA nephropathy (IgAN),6 cases with hepatitis B-associated membranous nephropathy (HBV-MN),6 cases with minimal change nephropathy (MCN),4 cases with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and 3 cases with class Ⅴ lupus nephritis.Total RNA was extracted from human glomeruli and was reversely transcribed to the first-strand cDNA.The full-length human M-type PLA2R was amplified by PCR and the 605 bp product was subcloned into eukaryotic expression vector containing CMV promoter.The recombinant human M-type PLA2R plasmid vector was transiently transfected into human embryonic kidney (HEK) 239T cell line using the FuGene6 transfection reagent.Western blotting was used to detect serum anti-PLA2R antibodies.Correlations of antiPLA2R antibody level with laboratory parameters,including serum albumin,total cholesterol,Scr and 24-hour urine protein,of IMN patients were evaluated. Results Among 20 cases with IMN,15 cases showed positive anti-PLA2R antibodies (positive rate 75％).Of 7 cases with IgAN and 6 cases with HBV-MN,only 1 case showed positive anti-PLA2R antibody respectively (positive rate 14.29％ and 16.67％ respectively).Anti-PLA2R antibody was negative in other patients.The positive rate of anti-PLA2R antibody in IMN patients was significantly higher than that in patients with secondary MN and other types of glomerlonephritis (all P＜0.01).Furthermore,anti-PLA2R antibody level was positively correlated with 24-hour urine protein(r=0.803,P＜0.01) and negatively correlated with serum albumin in IMN patients (r=-0.816,P＜0.01). Conclusions The high positive ratio of anti-PLA2R antibody may indicate that it is the specific autoantibody in IMN.AntiPLA2R antibody is correlated with IMN disease severity,which indicates that it may be the pathogenic autoantibody in IMN.
