5.Clinical application and expectation of amifostine applied during treatment of hematological malignancies
Journal of Leukemia & Lymphoma 2009;18(4):252-256
Although hemopoietic stem cell transplant have been used in treating malignant diseases of hematological system using high-dose chemotherapy and radiotherapy before transplant or non-transplant is very important. When the dose of chemotherapy and radiotherapy exceeds the ability the tissues can bear, normal tissue can be badly damaged, which limits the therapeutic efficacy of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Treatments of hematological malignancies are expected to achieve the best therapeutic efficacy and the least damage of normal cells and tissues. Amifostine is an inorganic thiophosphate eytoprotective agent,its chemname is S-2(3-aminopropyl) amino dihydrogen phosphate.h is a prodrug whose active constitutent is free thiol,it can clears free radicals produced from cytotoxic drugs and radiotherapy in tissues exposed to them. It is a broad-spectrum cytoprotective agent which can protect multifarious normal tissues against damage of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Using amifostine in proconditioning of hemopoietic stem cell transplant can lessen hematological and renal toxicity, it can also lessen renal toxicity produced by chemotherapeutics as platinum,cyclophosphamide and vincristine. The main purpose of this review is to discuss the cytoprotection of amifostine in hematological malignancies.
6.Progress in laboratory diagnosis of heparin induced thrombocytopenia
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2016;39(10):795-800
Heparin induced thrombocytopenia ( HIT ) is a severe side effect of heparin with antibody-mediation.Laboratory assays can be divided into two major categories, about functional assays and HIT antibodiesdetection.Thefunctional assays, such as the serotonin release assay ( SRA ) and heparin-induced platelet activationassay( HIPA) , are sensitive and specific for HIT.They arethe reference standard assays generally, but have thedeficiencies of complicated operation and time-consuming, and cannot be used as a routine examination. TheHIT antibodiesdetections, such as ELISA, immune turbidimetry assay, chemiluminescent assay and lateral flow immunoassay, have high diagnostic sensitivityandareavailable at routine laboratories.They can exclude the diagnosis of HIT or beused to diagnose HIT effectively combined with the pre-test probability score(4Ts score) of HIT.
7.How Essential the Anti-diabetic Medications in Chinese Hospitals?
China Pharmacy 2016;27(24):3313-3319
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the treatment of anti-diabetics medicines and use of essential medicines in Chinese hospi-tal,and provide evidence for developing medicine policy,preventing and treating diabetes. METHODS:Data about annual con-sumption from 2012 to 2014 were extracted from the IMS CHPA database to analyze the object medicines of the target drugs with top 60% consumption volume of oral anti-diabetics and insulins,and the proportion of consumption volume and consumption amount in insulin,its analogues and three generations of insulin by 2 administration mode in Chinese hospital. RESULTS & CON-CLUSIONS:Acarbose tablet manufactured by Beijing Bayer HealthCare Co.,Ltd. and Metformin tablet manufactured by Shanghai Squibb Pharmaceutical Co.,Ltd. had occupied the top 2 of volume consumption in Chinese hospitals,totally accounting for 25%-26%. The 60% volume consumption of insulins and its analogues concentrated on one cheap local animal insulin(volume ac-counting for 13%-16% and amount accounting for 1%)and those imported or joint venture-made the second and third generation of insulins and analogues administrated by pen/cartridge. No matter insulins or oral anti-diabetics,the top consumption was listed as National Essential Medicine System,but none was recommended by WHO. Multi-pharmas dominate the Chinese anti-diabetic mar-ket through introducing new combined formulations and new dosage forms. WHO non-listed anti-diabetics have beautiful sales in Chinese hospitals,while traditional cheap medications for the general public grew slowly and with low profits. Chinese hospitals generally consumed more expensive new generations and original research manufacturers of anti-diabetics. As a lower middle in-come country that just established a universal coverage of basic health insurance,China still has a huge population with very limit-ed benefit package. Efficient use of limited health resources is essential for a successful health reform and a sustainable development of the health system in China.

Chinese Journal of Organ Transplantation 2005;0(11):-
Objective To analyze the expression and the role of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and the effect of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on hepatic ischemia- reperfusion (I/R) injury.Methods The rat model of 45 min hepatic ischemia followed by 24 h reperfusion was used. Animals were divided into 3 groups: the pseudoperated control group (P), I/R group and treated group with NAC at a dose of 300 mg/kg at 5 min before reperfusion (I/R-NAC). Plasma concentrations of ALT, AST and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at various time points were measured. The expression of TLR4 protein and mRNA was detected in liver tissue by using immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR.Results The TLR4 expression, plasma ALT, AST and LPS levels were markedly increased during 45 min hepatic ischemia and 24 h reperfusion, but they were lower in I/R-NAC group and no alteration almost in group P. The plasma concentrations showed a significant correlation between ALT, AST and LPS at different time points in I/R group and I/R-NAC group.Conclusion LPS and TLR4 play a prominent role in the pathophysiological processes of I/R and NAC can be of therapeutic potential for reducing the expression of TLR4 mRNA and alleviating endotoxemia derived from gut.

Objective:To explore the application of fetal multi-organ hemodynamics in the detection and evaluation of oxygen supply and blood supply for fetus in the third trimester of pregnancy. Methods: 42 pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus and 42 healthy pregnant women were divided into observation group and control group, respectively. All of the fetuses of pregnant women received Doppler ultrasound examination, and the pulsatility index(PI), resistance index(RI) and systolic/diastolic(S/D) ratio of umbilical artery (UA)and middle cerebral artery (MCA) of every fetus in the two groups were observed. Besides, the number of fetal distress was recorded and the relationship between fetal distress rate and gestational diabetes mellitus were calculated.Results:The PI, RI and S/D of MCA of fetuses of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus was significantly higher than that of healthy pregnant women (t=7.52,t=6.04, t=8.69,P<0.05). And the PI, RI and S/D of UA of fetuses of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus also was significantly higher than that of health pregnant women (t=11.95,t=9.78,t=8.95, P<0.05). Besides, the fetal distress rate of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group (x2=19.56,P<0.05).Conclusion: The fetal blood flow information which obtained from Doppler ultrasound has very importantly value in the diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus, and it verifies the relationship between fetal distress rate and gestational diabetes mellitus. It provides beneficial basis for the prevention and treatment of the gestational diabetes mellitus in the clinical practice.
