A 66-year-old man was admitted for a 7-day history of painful blisters and erosions in the upper lip.Real-time PCR with herpes simplex virus (HSV) type-specific primers showed that the blister fluid and crusts were positive for HSV-1,but negative for HSV-2.Observation of the blister wall with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed 3 types of nucleocapsid in the karyoplast of epithelia cells,including the electron-translucent core,granular core and electron-dense core.Numerous matured viral particles with envelope were found in the cytoplasm,which were identified as HSV.The diagnosis was made as herpes simplex in the upper lip based on the above findings.PCR based molecular typing combined with observation of HSV particles via TEM may be an effective approach to the definite diagnosis of primary herpes simplex.

Objective To investigate clinical effects of bio-feedback and pelvic electric stimulation on stress urinary incontinence (SUI).Methods Fifty-six patients with SUI were selected randomly.All the patients received one or two courses of treatment and the effects were observed.Results Forty-three patients finished the treatment and the symptoms were improved.Scores of ICI-Q-SF and rotational angle of bladder were found to be significantly different from those before the treatment.Conclusions Stress urinary incontinence could be treated by bio-feedback and pelvic electric stimulation.Both the combination of treatment and individualized treatment should be taken into account.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate sodium intake via drug used by hypertensive inpatients during hospitalization. METH-ODS:290 inpatients with hypertension were collected from vasculocardiology department of our hospital between Jan. and Oct. 2013. The types of sodium-containing drugs and sodium-intake during hospitalization were analyzed statistically. RESULTS:275 pa-tients with hypertension were prescribed 38 sodium-containing drugs(94.8%);82.7% were administered by iv gtt with a average drug treatment course of 6.7 days(average hospitalization days of 6.8 days). Solvent containing sodium such as 0.9% Sodium chlo-ride injection and Creatine phosphate sodium for injection were the most sodium donors. 43.3% patients’sodium intake exceeded upper limit of 2 g/day recommended by WHO. CONCLUSIONS:Hypertensive inpatients are prescribed too much sodium-contain-ing drugs,and less intravenous solutions and less adjuvant medicines should be took to decrease sodium intake. Only when prospec-tive benefit are greater than risk,the patients can be prescribed sodium-containing drug prescription.At the same time,manufacturers should annotate the content of sodium in package inserts,which is convenient for physicians to choose drugs.

Objective To investigate anti-ulcerative drug use in patients undergoing arthroscopic operation against stress ulcer. Methosds A total of 297 patients undergoing arthroscopic operation during Jan. to Aug. 2013 in our hospital were recruited and retrospectively analyzed with Excellspreadsheet. Results Among 297 patients in the study, ninety-four patients (31.6%) used AUD before operation, most (94.9%) administered by intravenous, and drug utilization index was 1.35. Ninety-eight point nine patients used proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) in which Lansoprazole was prescribed most. Conclusion This study highlights the overuse of PPIs in patients undergoing arthroscopic operation.

Primary rat hepatocytes were cultured using different in vitro models and the enzyme leakage, albumin secretion, and cytochrome P450 1A (CYP 1A) activity were observed. The results showed that the level of LDH was decreased over time in culture. However, on day 5, LDH showed a significant increase in monolayer culture (MC) while after day 8 no LDH was detectable in sandwich culture (SC). The levels of AST and ALT did not change significantly over the investigated time. The CYP 1A activity was gradually decreased in a time-dependent manner in MC and SC. The decline of CYP 1A was faster in MC than in SC. This effect was partially reversed by using cytochrome P450 (CYP450) inducer such as Omeprazol and 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC) and the CYP 1A induction was always higher in MC than in SC. In bioreactor basic CYP 1A activity was preserved over 2 weeks and the highest albumin production was observed in bioreactor followed by SC and MC. Taken together, it was indicated each investigated model had its advantages and disadvantages. It was also underlined that various in vitro models may address different questions.
