OBJECTIVE:To standardize the ward rescue and essential drugs quality management in wards,and reduce the med-ication risk of patients. METHODS:Failure mode and effect analysis(FMEA)was used to analyze the inspection items and failure modes of quality management of ward rescue and essential drugs. According to scoring the possibility,severity and detectability de-gree of the failure modes and calculating the risk priority number(RPN),failure modes that should be given priority improvement were quantified and determined,improvement measures were developed and conducted,and management effects were evaluated af-ter 6 months. RESULTS:12 failure modes were determined,including the residue treatment of narcotic and the first-class psycho-tropic drugs was not recorded,drug storage temperature was not up to standard and drug expired,etc. Improving related systems, enhancing the inspection management,cold chain management,daily management and other measures were implemented and con-ducted. After 6 months,the top 3 items with the highest RPNs were dropped from 320,240,216 score to 16,16,27 scores,re-spectively,all in a relatively low risk area. Numbers of failure mode event were dropped from 1869 to 218,dropping by 88.3%. CONCLUSIONS:According to qualifying the failure modes in ward rescue and essential drugs quality management by using FMEA in our hospital,the management items with the highest risk has determined and improved,the medication risk of patients has significantly reduced.

Objective To evaluate the effect and potential mechanism of Shikonin on hormone-induced osteoporosis in rats.Methods RAW264.7 cell lines were treated with indicated concentrations of Shikonin,and the effects of Shikonin on cell viability were evaluated by CCK8 assay.Then the cells were divided into five groups:control group,dexamethasone(osteoporosis agent)group,dexamethasone + recombinant human parathyroid(anti-osteoporosis agent)group,dexamethasone + Shikonin 0.3 μmol·L-1 group,and dexamethasone + Shikonin 1.2 μmol·L-1 group.The effect of Shikonin on osteoclast function was evaluated by TRAP staining and bone resorption area measurement.The rat model of osteoporosis induced by dexamethasone was established,and divided into five groups(n=8):dexamethasone group,dexamethasone + PTH group,dexamethasone + Shikonin 0.3 μmol·L-1 group and dexamethasone + Shikonin 1.2 μmol·L-1 group,while control group was set up,then each group given separately 0.9%NaCl 6 mL·kg-1,PTH 20 μg·kg-1 3 days,Shikonin 0.5 mg·kg-1 day(0.3 μmol·L-1),Shikonin 2 mg·kg-1 day(1.2 μmol·L-1),and 0.9%NaCl 6 mL·kg-1for 3 weeks.ELISA was used to detect Serum type I collagen(CTX),Cathepsin K(Cathepsin K)and oxidative stress related indicators.HE staining was used to detect the changes of bone structure,and dual-energy X-ray scanning was used to detect the changes of bone density(BMD).Western blot and immunofluorescence were used to detect the effect of Shikonin on NF-κB/MAPKs signaling pathway,Western blot and qRT-PCR were used to detect the expression of RANKL-related proteins and mRNA,and Western blot was used to detect the blocking effect of Shikonin on RANKL/TRAF6.Results 1.2 μmol·L-1 Shikonin had the least damage to cells.Shikonin decreased the number of TRAP positive cells(P<0.05),decreased bone absorption area(P<0.05).and decreased the expression of CTX and Cathepsin K(P<0.05),and in 1.2 μmol·L-1 group decreased more significantly(P<0.05).Shikonin increased rat femur BMD(P<0.05),and increased more significantly in 1.2 μmol·L-1 group(P<0.01).Shikonin reversed the reduction and thinning of bone trabeculae induced by dexamethasone.The expression of SOD and GSH in rats increased(P<0.05),while the expression of MDA decreased(P<0.05).Shikonin inhibited the phosphorylation of NF-κB pathway related proteins in vitro.Shikonin inhibited the expression of RANK,RANKL,TRAF6,c-fos and NFATc1 protein and mRNA.Moreover,Shikonin blocked the expression of TRAF6.Conclusion Shikonin can ameliorate glucocorticoid induced osteoporosis by inhibiting RANKL/RANK/TRAF6 and its mediated NF-κB/MAPKs signaling pathway and oxidative stress.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of serum CircRNA_0048211 expression level in postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) and its correlation with bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP), osteopontin (OPN), procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (PINP) and β-crosslaps (β-CTX). Methods:Data of postmenopausal women who underwent physical examination in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were collected. All subjects were measured bone mineral density (BMD) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and divided into PMOP group, decreased bone mass group and normal bone mass group according to BMD level. The serum CircRNA_0048211, BALP, OPN, PINP and β-CTX levels were compared in each group. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of PMOP, the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was drawn to analyze the diagnostic value of CircRNA_0048211, BALP, OPN, PINP and β-CTX on PMOP. The correlation between CircRNA_0048211 expression level and BALP, OPN, PINP and β-CTX was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. Results:A total of 218 patients were included in this study. Age is 60.52±6.83 years (range, 47-76 years), body mass index is 24.27±2.28 kg/m 2 (range, 22.18-25.73 kg/m 2) and menopausal time is 10.16±4.25 years (range, 2.30-21.80 years). There were 40 cases in PMOP group, 97 cases in osteopenia group and 81 cases in normal bone mass group. The serum CircRNA_ 0048211, BALP, OPN, PINP and β-CTX was significantly different between PMOP group, osteopenia group and normal group ( F=21.15, P<0.001; F=12.52, P<0.001; F=17.86, P<0.001; F=14.32, P<0.001; F=15.52, P<0.001). The serum CircRNA_0048211 level in PMOP group (0.37±0.08) were significantly lower than that of osteopenia group (1.05±0.46) and normal bone mass group (1.73±0.81), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The levels of BALP (28.42±7.35 μg/L), OPN (17.28±7.30 ng/ml), PINP (58.40±14.37 ng/ml) and β-CTX (1.52±0.28 μg/L) in PMOP group were significantly higher than those in osteopenia group (22.61±5.93 μg/L, 11.95±5.64 ng/ml, 49.16±11.24 ng/ml, 0.81±0.17 μg/L) and normal bone mass group (16.30±4.18 μg/L, 7.62±3.25 ng/ml, 35.48±7.12 ng/ml, 0.37±0.10 μg/L), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that decreased CircRNA_0048211 expression level [ OR=3.53, 95% CI (2.73, 10.32)] was a risk factor for the occurrence of PMOP ( P<0.001). ROC curve showed that CircRNA_0048211≤0.76 has a diagnostic significance on PMOP, and its combination of BALP, OPN, PINP and β-CTX has the highest AUC [0.95, 95% CI (0.89, 1.00)] in diagnosing PMOP. Correlation analysis showed that CircRNA_0048211 expression level were negatively correlated with BALP, OPN, PINP and β-CTX ( r=-0.46, P<0.001; r=-0.80, P<0.001; r=-0.81, P<0.001; r=-0.69, P<0.001). Conclusion:The CircRNA_0048211 showed low expression in PMOP, which was negatively correlated with BALP, OPN, PINP and β-CTX. The combination of these five factors has certain clinical value in the diagnosis of PMOP.
