OBJECTIVE:To investigate the application of clindamycin phosphate for inpatients in a third grade class A hospital, and provide reference for the specication of its application. METHODS:Retrospective investigation was adopted to randomly obtain the medical information of inpatients who used Clindamycin phosphate for injection in a third grade class A hospital in May 2014, and its rationality was evaluated and analyzed by referred the instructions,relevant provisions and principles. RESULTS:Totally 205 patients used Clindamycin phosphate for injection,among which 174 were for the purpose of prevention medicine,31 cases for treatment purposes. There were reasonable use of 130 cases(63.4%);unreasonable prophylaxis of 71 cases(34.6%),unreason-able treatment of 4 cases(2.0%),it was mainly no indication of medicine,usage and dosage,treatment course and use of antibac-terial drugs. CONCLUSIONS:There still remains unreasonable phenomenon in the clinical application of the Clindamycin phos-phate for injection,the safe and effective clinical application can only be ensured if the drug regulatory system is improved and anti-bacterial drugs in clinical medicine guidelines is strictly enforced.

BACKGROUND:Ultrasound therapy can relieve pain and improve the movement function in patients with knee osteoarthritis, but there lacks of consistency in the literatures of ultrasound therapy.
OBJECTIVE:To further identify the effectiveness of ultrasound therapy in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis.
METHODS:Twenty-four rabbits were randomly divided into three groups:normal group, model group and ultrasound group. The rabbit in the normal group received no intervention;rabbits in the model group received anterior cruciate ligament transaction to establish the knee osteoarthritis model without any treatment;the rabbit in the ultrasound group received ultrasound therapy after modeling for 10 minutes once time, once per day, 0.3 W/cm2 , 1 MHz and treated for 10 times. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was conducted for histological observation of rabbit articular cartilage;western blot and reverse transcription PCR assessment were used to assess the expressions of caspases-3 and caspases-8 in rabbit articular cartilage, while Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling was used to assess the ratio of chondrocytes apoptosis of rabbit knee articular cartilage.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The normal rabbit cartilage tissues and chondrocytes were neatly arranged in column;the middle cartilage layer of the model was thin;the chondrocytes were arranged disorderly and became less. After ultrasound therapy, the chondrocytes were rearranged neatly, and the number was increased. Compared with the normal group, the Mankin scores in the model group and ultrasound group were higher;the apoptotic rate of chondrocytes was higher in the model group and ultrasound group than in the normal group, and was also higher in the model group than in the ultrasound group. Compared with the normal group, the expressions of caspases-3 and caspases-8 were higher in the model group and the ultrasound group, while decreased after ultrasound therapy. The results indicate that ultrasound can improve the structure of cartilage tissues, decrease the expressions of caspases-3 and caspases-8 and reduce the apoptosis rate of chondrocytes. It is effective for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis with ultrasound therapy.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic values of ultrasound elastography (UE) technology and acoustic radia?tion force impulse (ARFI) technology in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant single solid thyroid nodule showed by ultrasonography. Methods A total of 100 patients with solitary thyroid nodule diagnosed by the Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine of Shihezi University in December 2013 to July 2014 were selected in this study. The routine ultrasound, UE examination and ARFI technology were used in patients before operation. All patients were performed operation for thy?roid nodules and the diagnosis was confirmed by the pathologic results. A flexible classification method was used in UE. ARFI was used to detect shear wave velocity (SWV) of lesions. The diagnostic values of three methods were evaluated by the gold standard of pathologic results. ROC curves were plotted according to SWV values of benign and malignant thyroid nod?ules. Results The area under the curve (ACU) was 0.960. The best cut-off value of SWV was 2.76 for diagnosis. The diag?nostic sensitivities of malignant thyroid solid nodules were 82.61%(19/23), 82.61%(19/23) and 91.30%(21/23) for US, UE and ARFI, respectively. The diagnostic specificities were 87.01%(67/77), 88.31%(68/77) and 93.51%(72/77) respectively. And the positive predictive values (PPV) were 65.52%(19/29), 67.86%(19/28) and 80.77%(21/27) respectively;the nega?tive predictive values (NPV) were 94.37%(67/71),94.44%(68/72) and 97.29%(71/73). Conclusion ARFI technology is superior to US and UE technology in predicting malignancy in solitary solid thyroid nodule, which is worth of clinical applica?tion and promotion.

AIM: To discuss the effects of preoperative vitreous cavity injection of ranibizumab on 25G minimally invasive vitreoretinal surgery (VRS) in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR).METHODS: From February 2013 to December 2015,74 patients with PDR received VRS (82 eyes) were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into VRS + IVR group and VRS group according to preoperative VRS treatment.VRS+IVR group: preoperative injection of ranibizumab (10mg / mL) at 3-5d before operation;VRS group: VRS only.We recorded VRS operation time,filling situation,iatrogenic retinal hole and so on.RESULTS: The operation time and coagulation times of VRS+IVR group were significantly lower than VRS group.The two groups in operation time and coagulation times were statistically significant (all P<0.05).In the VRS+IVR group,the number of cases of iatrogenic retinal hole and the use of silicone oil were lower than those of VRS group,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05).While the use number of C3F8 and perfusion fluid were not statistically significant (P>0.05).In VRS-IVR group within 3mo after operation,4 eyes appeared to vitreous body hematocele,VRS group was 13 eyes,the difference was statistically significant (x2=4.966,P<0.05).CONCLUSION: PDR patients with 25G minimally invasive VRS with preoperative therapy can reduce postoperative ocular bleeding,rate of retinal injury and silicone oil filling,shorten the operation time,the incidence rate and improve the success rate of surgery and reduce eye bleeding,postoperative complications such as adhesion.

AIM: To investigate the role of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) and protein kinase C (PKC) signaling in tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?)-induced cardioprotection against hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury. METHODS: Neonatal rat ventricular myocytes were pretreated with TNF-? or sodium nitroprusside (SNP) or L-arginine (L-Arg), respectively, for 12 h and then subjected to continuous hypoxia for 12 h, followed by reoxygenation for 6 h. The manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) activity of the cells was measured after H/R. Myocyte injury was determined by the release of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH). RESULTS: TNF-? (10~5 (U/L)) significantly increased the Mn-SOD activity and decreased release of LDH from ventricular myocytes. The cardioprotection against H/R injury was induced by the pretreatment with SNP (5 ?mol/L) or L-Arg (5 mmol/L), which was blocked by ODQ (10 ?mol/L), the specific sGC inhibitor, and Chel (5 ?mol/L), the specific PKC inhibitor. Pretreatment with L-NAME (100 ?mol/L), ODQ, Chel, antoxidant 2-MPG (400 ?mol/L) or tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein (50 ?mol/L) attenuated the increased Mn-SOD activity and reduced LDH level induced by TNF-?. CONCLUSION: The results suggest that NO may play a role in TNF-?-induced cardioprotection, which is mediated by sGC and PKC. [

Objective To investigate the expression levels of miRNA in kidney biopsies of child patients with nephrotic syndrome and the possibility of miRNA as potential markers in differentiating the pathologic subtypes of nephrosis.Methods Kidney biopsy specimens from 41 child patients with nephrotic syndrome,including 22 with nesangial proliferative glomeplonephritis (MsPGN),8 with minimal change disease (MCD) and 11 with endocapillary proliferative glomerulonephritis (ECPGN),were collected,and adult nephridial tissues from 8 patients without renal inadequacy were selected as controls.The expression levels of miR-191,miR-151-3p,miR-150,miR-30a-5p and miR-19b in nephridial tissues were detected by RT-qPCR,and their correlations with renal function related parameters were analyzed.Results Compared with the controls,the miR-191 levels in kidney tissues of child patients with nephrotic syndrome increased significantly (P ＜ 0.01),while the miR-151-3p levels decreased obviously (P ＜ 0.01).The expression levels of miR-150 in MCD patients were significantly lower than those in MsPGN and ECPGN patients and the controls (P ＜ 0.05).The expression levels of these miRNAs were positively correlated with serum IgG,TP and Cr levels,but negatively with serum TC levels (P ＜0.05).Conclusion The expression levels of miRNA in kidney tissues of child patients with nephrotic syndrome are related to pathological typing of nephrosis,and miR-150 may be a potential marker which may differentiate MCD from other subtypes of nephrosis.

Objective To explore the effects of ureteral stent on renal pelvic pressure and other urodynamic parameters. Methods Forty-one patients, 28 males and 13 females, with unilateral renal calculi and/or ureteral calculi were recruited in this study. The mean patient age was 47 years old (ranging from 20 to 72 years old). All cases were placed a 4.7 F ureteral stent and 16 F nephrostomy tube after minimal invasive pereutaneona nephrolithotomy (MPCNL). There was no hydronephrosis and residual crushed stone in the ureter after MPCNL in all cases. Renal pelvic pressure, intra-abdo minal pressure, detrusor pressure, bladder pressure changes during the filling and voiding phases with intravesical perfusion flow rate of 40 ml/min were recorded and analyzed. Results At the baseline, IPP0, IAP0, DP0 and BP0 were (33.1±17.0)cm H2O, (27.5±7.0)cm H2O, (3.3±2.9)cm H2O and (30. 9±7.2)cm H2O, respectively; At the maximum cystometric capacity during the filling phase, IPPvol, IAPvol Dpvol and Bpvol were (39.4±67. 3)cm H2O, (31.1±7.3)cm H2O, (10.7±6. 6) cm H2O and (41.6±10.3)cm H2O, respectively; At the maximum bladder pressure during the voiding phase, IPPmax, IAPmax Dpmax and Bpmax were (65.7±17.0)cm H2O, (33.7±9. 7)cm H2O, (41.9±7.8)cm H2O and (75.0±12. 8)cm H2O, respectively;There were statistical significance comparing between any of IPP0, IPPvol and IPPmax(P<0. 01). 27% (11/41)patients were with the pain in kidney area at voiding IPPmax (87.1±14.6) cm H2O, which was significantly higher than IPPmax (57.8±9.5)cm H2O of asyrnptomatic group (30 patients)(P<0. 01). In all cases, the renal pelvic pressure was higher than 40 cm H2O during the voiding phase. Conclusions Renal pelvic pressure increases during the filling phase after placing the ureteral stent, especially during the voiding phase. As renal function will be damaged by the high renal pelvic pressure, we should decrease the utilization of ureteral stent if possible. It is encouraged to remove the ureteral stent as early as possible.

This study aimed to examine the diagnosis performance of 99mTc-methoxyisobutylisonitrisonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) and multimodality imaging [ultrasound,single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT)] for hyperparathyroidism (HPT).From Nov.2009 to Dec.2015,clinical data of a total of 43 HPT patients (16 males and 27 females;26-70 years old,average age:51.60±10.66 years old) were retrospectively analyzed.Among them,19 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) underwent 99mTc-MIBI planar imaging,24 [15 with PHPT and 9 with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT)] underwent SPECT/CT hybrid imaging,and 41 (33 with PHPT and 8 with SHPT) had neck ultrasound imaging.Final diagnosis was determined by pathological examination after surgery.The positive rate was compared between different imaging modalities,and the correlation analysis was conducted between imaging results and lesion size or serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) level.The results showed that the total positive rates of 99mTc-MIBI imaging,ultrasound,and the two combined imaging in the 43 HPT cases were 90.70％ (39/43),58.54％ (24/41),and 100％ (41/41),respectively.According to lesion numbers,the positive rates were 79.10％ (53/67),53.23％ (33/62),and 88.71％ (55/62),respectively.SPECT/CT hybrid images were positive in all the 24 patients who underwent this examination.The mean maximum diameters of the lesions in 99mTc-MIBI positive and negative patients were 1.96±0.95 cm and 1.36±0.67 cm respectively,with statistically significant difference noted (P=0.03).The T/NT of 99mTc-MIBI imaging at the early phase was correlated positively with serum PTH level (r=0.40,P=0.01).The T/NT of 99mTc-MIBI imaging at both the early phase and the delay phase was correlated positively with lesion size (r=0.51,and r=0.45,respectively;P＜0.01 for both).It was concluded that 99mTc-MIBI imaging presents significant value for location diagnosis of HPT,especially when combined with SPECT/CT hybrid imaging or ultrasound.The 99mTc-MIBI uptake correlates positively with serum PTH level and lesion size.
