OBJECTIVE: To investigate the tagging condition in medication of special population in package inserts in order to give reference for rational drug use of special population. METHODS: 389 pieces of common Chinese and western medicine package inserts of our inpatient and out-patient dispensaries were randomly collected and analyzed statistically in terms of the content of package inserts for special population, including pregnant and lactant women, children and the aged. RESULTS: A part of medication items of special population in package inserts had deficiency. According to the classification of dosage form, the tagging rate of injection exceeded other dosage forms reached to more than 90%, except of medication items for children. The tagging rate of oral formulation arrived at more than 90% only in terms of contraindications and cautions. According to the classification of manufacturer, the tagging rate of domestic drugs was kept at the low level while that of imported drugs exceeded 90%. CONCLUSIONS: Package inserts need to be improved with the effort of drug supervision management department, drug production department and population of using drugs to guarantee the safety of drug use in special population.
6.Transplantation with microencapsulated peripheral nerve tissue and acellular nerve on sciatic nerve defects in dogs
Journal of Third Military Medical University 2003;0(24):-
Objective To investigate the activity of gastrocnemius muscle after acellular nerve transplantation with microencapsulated peripheral nerve tissue to repair sciatic nerve gap in dogs. Methods Twelve dogs were selected and divided randomly into four groups with three in each. Both sciatic nerves of the dogs in group A were cut and chemically extracted to make acellular nerves. Acellular nerves were transplanted into the dogs of groups B and C to bridge 30 mm sciatic nerve gaps, and additionally microencapsulated peripheral nerve were added in group B. Autograft was used for repairing the defects in group D. The motor function of operated limbs were observed regularly after operation. Six months after operation, motor conduction velocity of the specimens of sciatic grafting nerve segment were observed, and the gastrocnemius muscle of both sides were obtained and performed succinic dehydrogenase (SDH), synaptophysin (SYP) and motor end plate histochemical staining, and sciatic nerve 1 cm from distal end stoma were obtained and underwent Masson, Luxol fast blue and NF200 staining. Results All the dogs in groups B, C and D were involved in the results analysis without loss. Image analysis indicated the optical density and the cross section area of gastrocnemius muscle, area and optical density of synaptophysin, area and optical density of motor end plate in group B showed statistically significant difference compared with those in group C, but no significant difference with those in group D. The results of motor function recovery of operated-limb, electrophysiological examination and morphologic observations of sciatic nerve were all consistent with the detections of gastrocnemius muscle. Conclusion The gastrocnemius muscle may be again innerved by nerve, and the muscle atrophy is significantly alleviated after acellular nerve transplantation with microencapsulated peripheral nerve tissue for repairing sciatic nerve gap. The regeneration of nerve was better after the combined transplantation than only acellular nerve transplantation, so the combination of acellular nerve and microencapsulated peripheral nerve tissue may be a useful substitute of autograft for nerve repair.

8.THE INFLUENCE OF VITAMINS AND CALCIUM SUPPLEMENT ON THE EXCRETION OF INORGANIC SALTS AND NITROGEN OF PERSONALS IN THE HIGH TEMPERATURE ENGINE CABIN
Acta Nutrimenta Sinica 1956;0(04):-
In this study, we selected 24 crewmen who worked in the high temperature circumstances in the engine cabin, resulting in a great loss of body water, together with a large amount of inorganic salts and nitrogen. We Proved that the loss of sodium, potassium, and calcium in sweat is greater than that in urine. The excretion of sodium is the highest, then potassium, the lowest is calcium. The body weight of the engine member has a prominent decrease after summer. It seems that the regaining of body weight can be promoted by great supply of vitamins. So, we should give a large amount of proteins, vitamins and calcium to the members who worked in the circumstance of such a high temperature. The amount of salt is already quite enough in an ordinary meal.
