Objective To clarify the mechanisms of total saponins of panax ginseng (TSPG) in induction of apoptosis of K562 cells and to provide the theoretical basis and the experimental evidence for its clinical application. Methods The effects of TSPG on apoptosis of K562 cells were studied by morphometry, flow cytometry, morphological observation, and immunocytochemistry. Results The results indicated that TSPG could markedly inhibit the proliferation of K562 cells and induce the apoptosis of K562 cells. Our experiment also showed that after induction by TSPG, the ratio of positive K562 cells with Fas expression increased. Conclusion The mechanisms of TSPG in the induction of K562 cell apoptosis may be related to the increased expression of Fas in K562 cells.

Objective To explore the significance of sample cultivation and drug resistance of the patients in PICU with severe lower respiratory tract specimens.Methods 1 107 pathogenic bacteria of lower respiratory tract samples collected were analyzed and the drug resistance was kept watch on.Results A total of 1107 samples were cultured into 948 strains of pathogens,with the positive rate of 85.64%,and 616 strains of Gram negative bacteria accounting for 64.98%,of which 145 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa(15.30%),Klebsiella pneumoniae 135(14.24%),Acinetobacter spp 131(13.82%),large intestine Egypt Greek bacteria 89(9.4%);Gram positive cocci 129(13.61%),the main pathogen was staphylococcus aureus and Fungi 203(21.41%),the main pathogen was candida albicans.Carbapenems was the most active antibiotics for gram negative bacill,and vancomycin for gram positive cocci.Conclusion Infectious bacteria have high selectivity to the sensitive antibiotics,and doctors should carefully use antibiotic according to the susceptibility test results in order to reduce hospital infection and the emergence and spread of resistant strains.

ObjectiveTo summarize prenatal ultrasound image features of Cantrell′s syndrome (Cantrell′s pentalogy).MethodsFrom January 2007 to December 2013 in Shenzhen Maternity & Child Healthcare Hospital, there were twenty cases diagnosed and conifrmed by postmortem as Cantrell′s syndrome. The prenatal ultrasound image features and outcomes were analyzed.ResultsAmong the twenty cases, eighteen were singleton and two were twins with the other normal fetus. Prenatal ultrasound image: two obvious ultrasound image features of ectopic heart and hight omphalocele (seventeen cases) or gastroschisis (three cases) were appeared in prenatal ultrasound of twenty cases. Fourteen cases were complete ectopic heart (Ectopic heart was located within the omphalocele in one case, ectopic heart was completely exposed in amniotic lfuid in thirteen cases), six cases were incomplete ectopic heart, three cases were ventricular septal defect in which one was associated with pulmonary stenosis, two cases were single atrium and single ventricle in which one was associated with a single arterial trunk, one case was tetralogy of Fallot, and six cases were without signiifcant heart abnormalities. Associated with other abnormalities: seventeen cases were associated with other abnormalities in twenty cases, in which eleven cases were spinal abnormalities, nine cases were umbilical cord abnormalities (short umbilical cord in six cases, single umbilical artery in two cases, short umbilical cord associated with single umbilical artery in one case), ifve cases were neurological abnormalities (exencephalia in four cases, encephalocele in one case), four cases were limb abnormalities, three cases were cheilopalatognathus, one case was giant bladder. Three cases weren′t associated with other abnormalities. Nuchal Translucency: in eight cases, nuchal translucency were measured in early pregnancy. Nuchal translucency of ifve cases were thick, one case was cervical hygroma in one of the two twins. Chromosome examination results: only three cases had chromosome examination in twenty cases, in which one case was trisomy 21, another two were chromosome normal. Fetal outcome and examination results: in twenty cases, one of the two twins can′t survive after birth, and the other one of two twins was reduced in intrauterine, so the specimen could not be obtained. Eighteen cases of singleton underwent labor induction. The results of postmortem appearance (nineteen cases) and autopsies (ifve cases) were all consistent with prenatal ultrasound scan.ConclusionsEctopic heart and hight omphalocele or gastroschisis appearing at the same time was the characteristic of Cantrell′s syndrome in prenatal ultrasound and other abnormalities may be part of the Cantrell′s syndrome spectrum. It is beneift to detect and diagnose Cantrell′s syndrome by prenatal ultrasound in the ifrst trimester.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effects of quality control circle(QCC)in improving the compliance of asthma/COPD outpatients handling inhaler devices. METHODS:By simple random sampling method,90 asthma/COPD outpatients receiving Tiotropium bromide powder for inhalantion,Salmeterol xinafoate and fluticasone propionate powder for inhalantion and Budesonide and formoterol fumarate powder for inhalantion were selected from our hospital during Apr. to Nov. 2015. The reasons for poor com-pliance of handling inhaler devices were analyzed by QCC. The countermeasures were formulated to improve the compliance,in-cluding clinical pharmacist education,follow-up,issuing education manuals,developing WeChat consulting. Operation step score of inhaler devices,compliance score and activity ability score of QCC members were analyzed statistically before and after QCC. RESULTS:After the development of QCC,operation step score of inhaler devices and compliance score in 90 asthma/COPD outpa-tients increased from 7.7 and 7.7 before activity to 8.8 and 9.3 after activity,the achievable rate of compliance was 114.3%,and the improvement rate was 20.8%. The sense of honor,responsibility,self-confidence,QCC techniques,communication and coordi-nation,team cohesion of all members were all improved obviously. CONCLUSIONS:QCC activity improves the compliance of asthma/COPD outpatients handling inhaler devices and shows the professional service level of clinical pharmacists,which is of sig-nificance to the improvement of pharmaceutical care.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of acoustic radiation forcs impulse (ARFI)in quantitative evaluating placental elasticity.Methods The study population included 487 normal pregnant women,and ARFI generated shear wave velocity (SWV)was measured.On the basis of gestational ages, placental sites and sampling depths in region of interest (ROI),the normal population was divided into different groups.One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the discrepancy on the SWV values amomg the nomal placental sites or the sampling depths in ROI.Pearson correlation coefficient were used to assess the possible relationships between the normal placental SWV values and the different gestational ages or the placental grades.A total of 5 1 cases were diagnosed with severe preeclampsia,among them 25 cases were categorized as severe preeclampsia with fetal growth restriction (FGR).The placental SWV values were measured and compared with those of the normal population.The pathological examinations were performed on 50 normal and 5 1 abnormal placentas.Results Basing on the placental sites,the normal population were divided into three groups:anterior wall,lateral wall and posterior wall groups.Compared with the posterior wall group,the placental SWV values in the anterior wall or lateral wall group significantly decreased (P <0.05).No statistical significant difference was found between the anterior wall group and the lateral wall group.Basing on the distance from the sampling depths to the probe (range from 2 to 7.99 cm,and each additional 1 cm corresponding a group),the normal population were divided into six groups.There was statistical significant difference for the placental SWV values between the two groups of distance in the range of 2.0 to 5.99 cm and 6.0 to 7.99 cm (P <0.05).There was no statistical significant difference between the other two groups.The mean SWV value was (0.78±0.08 m/s)in the normal group. No significant relationships were found between the placental SWV values and the gestational ages of the normal population.However the placental SWV values were significantly related to the placental grades.For the placental SWV values,there was statistical significant difference between the normal group and the abnormal group (P <0.05).No statistical significant difference was found between the severe preeclampsia group and the severe preeclampsia with FGR group.The pathological examinations also showed significant changes in the abnormal group.Conclusions ARFI may quantitatively analyze the placental elasticity and make a difference between nomal and abnormal placenta.
