Purpose To explore the clinical characteristics of small intestinal tumors and its diagnosis. MethodsRetrospective analysis of cases. ResultsLdomyoma was most common among the benign small intestinal tumors(12/17),adenocarcinomawas most common among the malignant small intestinal tumors(45/ 76). The feature of the small intestinal tumors could be hemorrhage, abdominal pain, abdominal mass, fever and jaundice. Upper gastrointestinal tract barium oontrast study was performed in 28 cases,and the results of 21 cases were positive. Mesenteric arteriography was performed in 9 cases. It was confirmed by surgery that the results matched with the lesions. ConclusionsMesenteric arteriography is of great value in diagnosis of the small intestinal tumors endoscope retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP), CT are also helpful.

Objective To systematic review the methodological quality of guidelines for Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) in children, to provide a reference for clinical evidence-based medicine. Methods Guidelines concerning GBS were electronically retrieved from PubMed, EMbase, CBM, Wanfang data, CNKI and Vip. The guide databases includes major medical institutions and industry sites such as NGC, GIN, TRIP , CDC, IDSA, AAP, WHO, Chinese Health and Family Planning Committee website, library of clinical guidelines China and Chinese clinical guidelines for collaboration. All the data were searched from inception of the database or network to Oct. 2013. Two reviews independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and assessed the quality of guideline using the AGREEⅡ. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to examine the conformance of the raters' evaluation scores. Results A total of 5 guidelines concerning GBS were included, with a time range from 2003 to 2012, and origins from USA, EU and Canada. The final recommendation levels of the 5 articles were level B. According to the AGREEⅡ, domain 3 and 4 showed the higher scores, and scores were generally low in domain 5. Plasma exchange (PE) and intravenous immuneglobulin (IVIG) showed positive effects on the treatment of GBS. But it was not recommended that combined PE and IVIG. Corticosteroids are also not recommended for GBS treatment. Conclusions The recommendations of medicines for GBS are basically consistent. However, the classification criteria of the levels of evidence and recommendation are still unconsistent and suboptimal. The guidelines on GBS should be improved in“Applicability”in future.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the utilization of human serum albumin in a hospital.METHODS:The utilization of human serum albumin in a hospital in the first quarter of 2006 was reviewed analytically using hospital computer database system.RESULTS:Human serum albumin was used in 55 departments for 17 categories of diseases,mainly for critical patients,with a common individual consumption quantity ranged from 10 g to 20 g.Most(51.10%) of the patients used this drug on account of hypoproteinemia,and most of them had a baseline serum albumin level at 21～30 g?L-1 before using human serum albumin.CONCLUSION:Human serum albumin was used extensively in the hospital.But its use is sometimes irrational because some physicians didn't familiarize the real indications for using human albumin,which should be intervened urgently.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between glycemic control and lipid profile in patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods The patients with type 2 diabetes taking oral antidiabetic agents only were investigated for their levels of blood glucose and lipid profile.With a standard for valid blood glucose control( HbA1c ＜7％ ),the patients were divided into two groups,reached the goal group and not reached the goal group,and the lipid profile was compared between the two groups.Results Completed study had been obtained 173 patients,average HbAlc,7.9％,total success rate of glycemic control,with 43.4％ being the figure reported.We can see a lower triglyceride( TG),total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) level and a higher high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level in the group reaching the stantard ( t =- 2.437,- 2.067,2.005,- 2.984,P =0.016,0.040,0.047,0.003).Conclusion The blood lipid profile should be considered while the level of glucose of patients with type 2 diabetes taking oral antidiabetic agents alone are controlled.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficiency of serum cystatin C as a marker of renal function to predict serum trough concentrations of vancomycin. Methods Data on trough concentrations of vancomycin(Cmea ),serum creatinine (Scr)concentrations,cystatin C( Cys C) concentrations were collected from 81 hospitalized patients who received vancomycin therapy. Predicted vancomycin trough concentrations(Cpre )were calculated based on Scr or Cys C concentrations associating with Bayesian forecasting method through NONMEM software. Finally,the correlations and distinctions between Cpre and Cmea were comparatively analyzed. Results There were both correlation between Cpre and Cmea in relation to Scr or Cys C(r = 0. 678,P<0. 01;r=0. 727,P<0. 01). Besides,the errors of mean predictive error(ME),mean absolute error(MAE)and root-mean-square error(RMSE)for Scr was - 5. 79,6. 86,9. 86 μg · mL-1 , respectively, where as the errors for Cys C was - 0. 82,5. 42, 7. 74 μg·mL-1 ,respectively. Conclusion Cystatin C is a good marker of renal function available for predicting serum vancomycin concentrations.

Objective To explore the effect of specific labeling method in improving the mixed placing of medical waste in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU).Methods Medical waste classification of 34 trash cans in the NICU of a hospital between July and December 2014 were investigated,July-September was pre-implementation phase of spe-cific labeling,October-December was post-implementation phase,mixed placing of medical waste between pre-and post-implementation phase was compared.Results A total of 504 cases of medical waste classification in NICU were investigated,252 cases respectively in pre-and post-implementation phase,74 cases of mixed placing were found. Mixed placing rates before implementing specific labeling was higher than after implementing (25.40%[64/252]vs 3.97%[10/252],χ2 =46.187,P <0.001 );before implementing specific labeling,57 cases of infectious waste and non-infectious waste were mixed placing,after implementing specific labeling,only 8 cases of infectious waste and non-infectious waste were mixed placing.Mixed placing were mainly performed by trainees for in-service training and interns,accounting for 39.06% before implementing and 50.00% after implementing.Conclusion The specific labeling for standardizing and managing of medical waste can improve the classification of medical waste in NICU, significantly improve the compliance of all kinds of health care workers to the standard handling of medical waste.

Objective To evaluate the effect of mouse nerve growth factor on fracture healing.Methods Cochrane library, Pubmed, EMbase, CNKI,VIP,Wanfang Data and CBM were searched for the randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of mouse nerve growth factor on fracture healing from the date of establishment of the databases to May 2014.Three independent rese archers evaluated the included studies using GRADE,according to recommend classification method of GRADE system by three researchers,crtical evaluated and data extracted of the quality of the included studies,which conform to the quality standard of RCT was analyzed by Meta analysis.The extracted data were analyzed by RevMan 5.0 and GRAED proiler.Results A total 5 trials were discovered and all of these were in Chinese.Compared with conventional treatment was improved a lot[MD =-8.74,95%CI( -9.79,-7.68),P<0.0001].However, adverse drug reaction in patients with mouse nerve growth factor were increased[OR =14.66,95%CI(1.89, 113.99),P=0.01].The both outcomes were low quality in the GRADE system.Conclusion Mouse nerve growth factor can improve fracture healing and the side effects will also increase.

Objective To systematically review articles about therapeutic drug monitoring of vancomycin in Chinese adults, so as to provide a reference of vancomycin trough concentrations for clinical evidence-based medicine.Methods Literature concerning vancomycin therapeutic drug monitoring were electronically retrieved in, CBM, Wanfang data, CNKI and Vip.Furthermore, the articles written in English by Chinese author in PubMed, EMbase were included.All the data were searched from inception of the database or network to Aug.2014.Two reviews independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and assessed the quality of literature using the Combieg and NOS.Analyzing the types of studies, the number of therapeutic monitoring of vancomycin, trough serum concentration, clinical outcome and renal function.Results A total of 35 studies including 32 cross-sectional studies and 3 cohort studies were included, all studies were observational studies.3099 patients with 5206 blood concentrations monitoring results were eligible for final analyses in all 32 cross-sectional studies.The rates of trough serum concentration in 5-15 mg/L was 53.6%.Compared with the trough concentrations between 5 and 15 mg/L, clinical cure rate was no significant difference in the trough concentrations of over 15μg/mL.However, the incidence rate was significantly reduced in renal toxicity in 5-15 mg/L trough serum concentration.Conclusions For adults, trough serum concentration of vancomycin should adopt the 5-15 mg/L in China.However, considering lack of high-level evidence, so it needs to be studied further.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the related evidence-based guidelines of purulent meningitis in children,and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from PubMed,EMBase,CBM,Wanfang Data-base,CJFD and VIP,NGC,GIN,TRIP and websites of domestic and international medical associations and industry bodies,the treatment guidelines about purulent meningitis in children were collected. Evidence-based evaluation was performed after data extrac-tion and quality evaluation. RESULTS:Finally 3 guidelines were enrolled in total,with development time ranging from 2004 to 2012,from USA,Britain and Australia,respectively. All of the recommendations were level B,scope and purpose and clarityshowed the higher scores in AGREEⅡ,more than 70%,and applicability showed generally low scores. Penicillin and cefotaxi-me were recommended in purulent meningitis of neonates,and vancomycin combined with cefotaxime or ceftriaxone were recom-mended for infants and children(it was combined with vancomycin when Streptococcus pneumoniae infection was suspected). The dose and duration of each guideline were certain different,and the period of treatment should be longer in neonates. In addition, the glucocorticoid was recommended in all guidelines. CONCLUSIONS:The recommendations of medicines for the treatment of pu-rulent meningitis are basically unanimous,with no regional difference,but there are some differences about dose and the course of treatment. In addition,the classification criteria of the levels of evidence and recommendation are still suboptimal,which needs fur-ther improvement. And guidelines on purulent meningitis should be improved inrigourandapplicabilityin future.

Objective To explore the influence of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) therapy on cardiac index (CD, global end-diastolic volume index (GEDI) and extravascular lung water index (ELWI) monitored by Pulse-indicated continuous cardiac output (PiCCO). Methods The 12 critically ill patients with acute renal failure were selected consecutively from department of intensive care unit (ICU) in Beijing Hospital. The patients who received CVVH therapy were monitored by PiCCO plus device. The hemodynamic measurements were performed during the process and interruption of CVVH. Pared t-test was used to analyze the values of CI, GEDI and ELWI. Results A total of 48 groups of data from 12 patients were analyzed. There were no significant differences in CI [(4.75±0.93) L ? min(-1) · m(-2)vs. (4.69±0.89) L · min(-1) · m(-2)], GEDI [(780.60±109.30) ml/m2 vs. (784.75± 106.20) ml/m2] and ELWI CC11.61±3.45) ml/kg vs. (11.54±3.56) ml/kg] between the interruption and process of CVVH, as obtained by the pared t-test (all P>0.05). Conclusions The CVVH therapy has no effect on the accuracy and reliability of PiCCO measurement of CI, GEDI and ELWI.
