OBJECTIVE:To investigate the characteristics of adverse drug reactions (ADR) caused by quinolones in our hospital and to promote their rational use in clinic. METHODS: By a retrospective review,a total of 199 quinolones-induced ADR cases collected from May 2004 to December 2007 in our hospital were analyzed statistically in respect of patients' gender and age,drug species involved,past ADR history,route of administration,clinic manifestations,etc. RESULTS: A total of 9 kinds of quinolones involved in the 199 ADR cases,of which,118 cases were induced by levofloxacin,16.1% had past ADR history,93.5% of the ADR cases were induced via intravenous drip,and most common presentations of the ADR were lesions of skin and its appendants as well as digestive system. There were 7 serious ADR cases. CONCLUSION: The indications of quinolones should be controlled strictly,which should be preferably administered orally and monitoring of its administration should be emphasized in clinical practice to decrease and avoid the occurrence of ADR.

Analysis main reasonsof needle stabbing are poor self-protection awareness,unsound health care management system and dangerous behavior and habits.Therefore,medical staffshould strengthen safety education,arouse consciousness of self protection,improve working environment and do proper treatment after needle stabbing to avoid needle injury and safeguard their own health.

Objective To study the effect of Shaoyao Gancao Grain on serum prolactin level in female schizophrenia patients with high prolactin induced by risperidone.Methods 100 patients were randomly divided into the control group 50 cases,which were given risperidone. The study group 50 cases,which were given Shaoyao Gancao Grain on the basis of the control group. The two groups were treated for 12 weeks. Positive And Negative Syndrome Scale,serum prolactin and Estrogen level were measured by immunohistochemistry before and after 12 weeks of treatenmt.Results After 12 weeks of treatenmt,serum prolactin levels were decreased in the study group than control group (46.28 ± 14.06 ng/mlvs. 117.89 ± 22.11 ng/ml;t=10.242,P<0.01). PANSS score were decreased in the study group copare with before treatenmt (67.45 ± 7.00vs. 96.53 ± 11.88;t=7.125,P<0.01). PANSS score were decreased in the control group copare with before treatenmt (68.73 ± 7.71vs. 9 7.93 ± 12.65;t=6.541,P<0.01). But there were no difference in PANSS score between the two groups after treatenmt (t=0.682,P>0.05). ConclusionsShaoyao-Gancao grain can decrease serum prolactin level in female schizophrenia patients with high prolactin induced by risperidone,does not affect estrogen levels.

Objective To study the cytotoxic activity of Chinese compound prescription (Xiaozheng Yiliu Decoction) combined with cisplatin on human ovarian cancer OVCAR/DDP cells and its molecular mechanism. Methods The xenograft model was established by injection of OVCAR/DDP cells. Forty nude mice were randomly allocated into four groupsincluding control group, cisplatin treatment group, low-dose Xiaozheng Yiliu plus cisplatin treatment group,and high-dose Xiaozheng Yiliu plus cisplatin treatment group.The apoptosis was determined by TUNEL analysis.The survivin expression was detected by RT-PCR analysis.Results The inhibit rates in cisplatin treatment group, low-dose Xiaozheng Yiliu plus cisplatin treatment group,and high-dose Xiaozheng Yiliu plus cisplatin treatment group,were(5.56±1.14) ％,(18.42±7.73) ％,and (31.59±12.58) ％,respectively,and there were significant differences among the groups(F=8.64,P＜0.01 ).The TUNEL analysis showed that the percentages of cell apoptosis were(2.35±1.04) ％,(4.56±1.61) ％,(12.42±3.68) ％,(21.59±5.17) ％ in four different groups,respectively.After treated by Xiaozheng Yiliu Decoction,the mRNA expression of survivin was found to be down-regulated by RT-PCR analysis. Conclusion Xiaozheng Yiliu Decoction could iucrease the cytotoxic activity of cisplatin on ovarian cancer OVCAR/DDP cells, which may be related to the down-regulation of survivin gene expression.

Objective To study the relationship of the plasma levels of high sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),adrenomedullin(ADM),brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)with severity of heart falure, the left ventricular ejection fraction and the relationship among them in the elderly patients with congestive heart failure(CHF). Methods The blood samples were obtained from 50 patients with congestive heart failure and 24 healthy controls.The plasma level of hs-CRP was measured by immunoturbidometry.The plasma levels of ADM and BNP were determined by radioimmunoassay.The plasma levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were measured with ELISA.Left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)was measured by echocardiography. Results The plasma levels of hs-CRP, ADM ,BNP and MMP-2,MMP-9 had significantly negative correlation to LVEF(P

Objective To establish a TaqMan probe-based real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR ( real-time PCR) for the quantitative and rapid detection of viral reservoir in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from rhesus monkeys with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection and to evaluate its preliminary application. Methods A pair of primers and one TaqMan probe were designed ac-cording to the conserved sequence of SIVmac239 strain for real-time PCR amplification. A length of 2 090 bp of nucleotide fragment was digested from the plasmid p239SpSp5 containing 5′-end long segments of SIV-mac239 strain by restriction enzymes EcoRⅠand SpeⅠ. The standards used for quantitative detection of SIV DNA in peripheral blood samples were prepared by a 10-fold serial dilution and used for graphing the stand-ard curve. The numbers of SIV DNA ( copies per 106 PBMCs) in rhesus monkeys during acute and chronic phases of SIVmac239 infection were determined and the virological characteristics of SIV DNA at different phages of infection were analyzed. Results A linear positive correlation between cycle threshold ( Ct) val-ues and concentrations (10 copies/μl to 109 copies/μl) of the standards was found. High levels of SIV DNA were monitored in SIV-infected monkeys 14 to 22 days after acute infection. The levels of SIV DNA in the acute phase of infection were about 1 to 2 logs higher than those in the chronic phase of infection. The num-bers of SIV DNA ( copies per 106 PBMCs) were 1 log lower than the SIV viral load in peripheral blood of the same monkey. The ratios of SIV DNA load to SIV RNA load ( DNA/RNA) in chronic phase of infection were higher than those in the acute phase. Conclusion The established TaqMan probe-based real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was a highly sensitive and specific assay for the detection of SIV DNA with an advantage of wide linear range. It could be used for the quantitative evaluation of latent reservoirs of SIV.

Objective To study the changes of acetyl-histone H2B in the cochlear hair cells of the guinea pig model of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL).Methods Sixty guinea pigs were randomly divided into control and noise-exposure group.Thirty guinea pigs in the noise-exposure group were exposed to narrowband noise at 122 dB SPL for 3 hours , while thirty guinea pigs in the control group were not exposed to noise.Auditory thresholds were assessed by auditory brainstem response (ABR), prior to noise in two groups and 3, 7,14 and 21 days after noise exposure in the noise group.Then we investigated the expression of acetyl-histone H2B levels in the sensory cells of basilar membrane after noise expose by immunofluorescence staining and western blot.Results Compared with pre-exposure hearing, ABR thresholds were increased at 1h, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days after noise exposure, and recovered gradually with time and reached a permanent threshold shift at 14 days.The expression of acetyl-histone H2B was down-regulated in the hair cells and Hensen''s cells of the guinea pig cochlea after the noise expose , The ratio of H2B-AcK5 / β-actin was 0.6179±0.1260 in the control group and 0.3102±0.0839 in the noise group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01).Conclusion Noise decreased the inner ear sensory cells histone acetylation level and histone acetylation imbalance may be involved in the occurrence of NIHL.
