Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2009;13(52):10283-10286
OBJECTIVE:To compare the effects of omeprazole and esomeprazole,two kinds of proton pump inhibitors,on clopidogrel platelet inhibition following cardiac stents implantation.METHODS:Totally 180 patients with coronary artery disease underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at the Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University from June 2008 to May 2009 were selected,including 83 males and 97 females.All patients were randomly divided into 3 groups,omeprazole + clopidogrel + aspirin group (OCA group,receiving omerprazole 20 mg/d),esomeprazole+clopidogrel+aspirin group (ECA group,receiving esomeprazole 10 mg/d),and control group (No proton pump inhibitor),with 60 patients in each group.In addition,all patients received a 300 mg clopidogrel and 0.1 g aspirin prior to PCI,and received 75 mg/d clopidogrel and 100 mg/d aspirin treatment for 1 week after PCI.Blood samples from patients were obtained from cubital vein before and at 1 week after adminstration,respectively.The vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein phosphorylation state and platelet reactivity index (PRI) were calculated by flow cytometric assay.RESULTS:The PRI had no significant difference before administration (P>0.05),which was obviously decreased at 1 week after administration (P<0.05),especially lowest in the control and ECA groups (P<0.05).However,the PRI differences between the control and the ECA group had no significant (P>0.05).CONCLUSION:The administration of omeprazole rather than esomeprazole is associated with impaired clopidogrel platelet inhibition.Esomeprazole can be used as one of the preferred proton pump inhibitor in curing gastrointestinal bleeding caused by anti-platelet therapy following cardiac stents implantation.
5.Quantitative analysis of psychological distress in patients with advanced cancer
Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2008;15(2):275-276
Objective To evaluate the scales of psychological distress and pain in patients with advanced cancer and the impact of pain on the anxiety and depression.Methods Seventy-four patients with advanced cancer were observed.The hospital anxiety and depression(HAD)scale and the brief pain inventory(BPI)were completed either by patients or under the assistance of the investigator.Results HAD-A(anxiety)and HAD-D(depression)scores were(7.68±4.09)and(7.19±3.38),respectively.Significant correlations were found between pain severity and HAD-A or HAD-D(P<0.001)by univariate correlation analysis.Furthermore,significant associations were shown between HAD-A and six"pain interference in the patients'functional ability"items(P<0.001),and between HAD-D and pain interference to"mood"or"relations with other people"(P<0.01).Conclusions Quantitative analysis of psychological distress have shown that patients with advanced cancer are doubtful cases for both anxiety and depression and need psychological management.Anxiety and depression is not only associated with pain intensity directly,but also with pain interference in the patients'functional ability indirectly.
6.Relationship between the phospholipid content of BALL and lamellar body in septic rats
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(01):-
The phospholipid content in BALL markedly increased (P0.01) in septic rats induced by cecal ligation plus punctures as compared with non-septic control. Meanwhile, the lamellar inclusion bodies in type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells were empty observed in electro-microscopic examination. Authors suggest that the changes mentioned above is a compensatory response related to stress in early stage of sepsis.
