Objective To systematically observe the damage of pancreas and changes of serum amy-lase and lipase in septic rat at different time points after the septic rat model being established. Methods Fifty-four male rats were randomly divided into sham group,sepsis group and normal control group. In the sepsis group,rats were given cecal ligation and puncture so as to produce a model of the rat′s intestinal septic shock. In sham group,after opening the abdominal cavity of the rats,only the cecum was pulled out of the abdominal cavity,then the abdominal cavity was satisfied and stitched. The arterial blood and pancreatic tis-sues of the rats in both sepsis and sham groups were collected for detection of serum amylase and lipase and observation of damage of pancreas by light and electron microscopy at 3 h,6 h,12 h,24 h after the model be-ing established. Results The levels of serum amylase of sepsis group showed a rising trend over time,and peaked at 24 h(2 779. 83 U/L), which showed no difference among 4 time points. There was no significant difference of serum amylase among 3 groups at each time point except for 12 h value. The levels of serum li-pase in both sepsis and sham group were higher than that in normal control group at 3 h(P<0. 05),while de-creased to the level of normal control group at 24 h. By light microscope,pathological changes of pancreas in the sham groups were that lobule was slightly widened; mild interstitial edema,vasodilation and a little in-flammatory cell infiltration were occasionally found;most of the lobular structure was complete. In the sepsis group,pancreatic pathological changes aggravated with time prolonged. Pancreatic lobules gap widened,inter-stitial were infiltrated by the inflammatory cell,flocculus brim structure was fuzzy,focal necrosis was found occasionally,islet structure was complete at 3 h. Pancreatic lobule was significantly wider,more inflammatory cell infiltrated,necrosis enlarged at 6 h,and pancreatic lobule was obvious edema,more inflammatory cell in-filtration and focal necrosis were found at 12 h. Vascular of pancreatic lobule was dilatation and congestion, pancreatic lobule and islet edge blurred,more lobular necrosis at 24 h. The modified Schmidt scoring of sham group and sepsis group at 3 h,6 h,12 h,24 h were 2. 0,3. 6,3. 4,3. 6 and 4. 6,6. 0,6. 8,7. 6,respectively. By transmission electron microscope,the ultrastructure of pancreatic cell in sham group was normal,mitochondri-al and lysosomal swelling were found occasionally. When in the sepsis group,the nucleus was normal,some mitochondria was swelling and cracking, lysosomes was swelling at 3 h, nucleus was complete, a part of swelling mitochondria and lysosomes appeared vacuolated necrosis at 6 h,and karyopyknosis and chromatin condensation were found,more mitochondria and lysosomes were swelling necrosis and vacuolar degenerated, rough endoplasmic reticulum was swelling at 12 h,cell karyopyknosis and chromatin condensation were obvi-ous,a large number of mitochondria and lysosome, endoplasmic reticulum were swelling, dilatation and vacuolar necrosis at 24 h. The modified Schmidt scoring showed no significant correlation with the levels of serum amylase and lipase in sepsis group(r=0. 472,P=0. 199;r=0. 260,P=0. 499). Conclusion The pancreas was damaged in the septic rat. The pathological changes of pancreas were obvious at 6 h after sepsis onset. The characteristics of the pancreas ultrastructure change includes the changes of the mitochondria and lysosome in the early period,clear vacuoles necrosis of mitochondria and lysosome,and destruction of nucleus and the endoplasmic reticulum. There is no significant correlation between pancreatic pathological changes and serum amylase as well as lipase,serum amylase and lipase can′t indicate the extent of pancreas damage in sepsis.

Objective To explore the mediating role of coping modes between illness perception and posttraumatic growth among patients with breast cancer. Methods Totally 300 patients with breast cancer were investigated with the posttraumatic growth inventory, brief illness perception questionnaire and medical coping modes questionnaire. Results The total score of illness perception was 40. 77 ± 6. 85. The scores of confrontation coping style,avoidance coping style and resignation coping style were 19.42±3.51, 17.78±2.79,8.64±3.35. The total score of posttraumatic growth was 57.38±10.48. Illness perception was negatively correlated with posttraumatic growth ( r=-0.743) ,confrontation( r=-0.568) and avoidance ( r=-0.621),positively related with resignation( r=0.727).Posttraumatic growth was positively correlated with confrontation and avoidance ( r=0.729, r=0.657) ,but negatively correlated with resignation( r=-0.757) (P<0.01) . Coping modes had a partial mediating effect on the relationship between illness perception and postt?raumatic growth. The total mediation effect value was 0.428,and the mediation effect was 57.60%,while con?frontation and resignation mediation effect value were -0. 191 and -0. 207, and the mediation effect were 25.70% and 27. 86%. But there was no statistical significance in avoidance mediation ( effect value was-0.030 and the mediation effect was 4.04%) . Conclusion Confrontation and resignation coping modes play a role multiple mediation effects between illness perception and posttraumatic growth.

Objective:To summarize the drug repercussion data in outpatient pharmacy and analyze the reasons to provide sugges-tions for the improvement. Methods: The information was collected from the hospital information system ( HIS) during January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2015, including drug name, category, quantity, amount, reasons for drug repercussion and the other statisti-cal data. Results:During the three years, the number of prescription drugs, amount of money and varieties of drug repercussion were increased. The most common reasons for drug repercussion were the other reasons, withdrawn by doctors and the request of patients. The sum of drug repercussion was positively correlated with the drug price and the amount of drug repercussion. Conclusion:The op-tion simplicity for drug repercussion in HIS is the main reason for drug repercussion bythe other reasons. The occurrence of drug re-percussion should be intervened by such methods as gradually improving the HIS, establishing intervention measures, enhancing the professional quality of pharmacists and so on.
