Objective:To analyze one case of drug-induced liver injury to provide reference for clinical pharmacists participating in the clinical practice. Methods: Through the participation in the diagnosis and therapy of one patient with drug-induced liver injury, clinical pharmacists found the correlation between the suspected drugs and the disease, which provided basis for the clinical diagnosis and therapy. Results:Clinical pharmacists actively assisted physicians by providing reasonable defining characteristics and drug therapy scheme for the patient free from drug interactions and adverse reactions. The function of the patient recovered after the treatment. Con-clusion:Clinical pharmacists participating in clinical practice can make use of pharmacy knowledge to search causes of diseases and optimize therapeutic scheme.

Objective To observe the difference in therapeutic efficacy between acupuncture with distant acupoints selection and proximal acupoints selection in treating acute headache.Method Sixty patients with acute headache were randomized into group A and group B, 30 cases in each group. Group A was intervened by acupuncture with distant acupoints selection, while group B was by acupoints with topical acupoints selection. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Present Pain Intensity (PPI) from McGill Pain Questionnaire (MPQ) were observed before and after intervention, and the clinical efficacies were compared between the two groups. Result After treatment, the VAS and PPI scores were significantly different from that before treatment in both groups (P<0.01). The changes of VAS and PPI scores in group A after intervention were significantly different from that in group B (P<0.01). The total effective rate was 90.0% in group A versus 73.3% in group B, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). Conclusion Acupuncture with distant acupoints selection can produce a better therapeutic efficacy than acupuncture with topical acupoints selection.

Objective Improve the efficiency of radiology doctors on reading bone age films by sharing Tanner-Whitehouse(TW2)bone algorithm on the network. Methods The bone age algorithm web was Programmed with a Java script implementation of Tanner-Whitehouse Method and putted on a Web server based on HTTP service. The program allows to select a stage (from a set of 8 stages) for every bone (from a set of 20 bones), and also allows doctors to input some specific data such as birthday, sex. Based on TW2 reported values, selected and input data, the program computes the bone age. We assessed the bone ages on 50 left hand and wrist X-ray films of Chinese children aged 2-18 (1000 bones totally) with computer-aided method and manual method. The grading agreement of bone development and the time spent for bone age assessment were compared (U test) between the two methods. Results Computer-aided method is easy to use, better than manual method in accuracy of bone development grading, and it also has a friendly interface. For the 1000 bones assessed by TW2, the rate of the same maturity classification was 83.8%(838/1000), the rate of one-level maturity difference (+ 1 and - 1) was 14. 9% (149/1000), the rate of two-level maturity difference (+2 and -2) was 1.3% (13/1000). For the 1000 bones assessed by manual method, the rate of the same maturity classification was 65.7% (657/1000), the rate of one-level maturity difference (+ 1 and -1) was 27. 2% (272/1000), the rate of two-level maturity difference (+ 2 and -2) was 7.1% (71/1000). TW2 bone algorithm was significantly better than manual method (U =9.31595 ,P <0.01). The average time of assessing bone age by the two methods was 3-5 min and 15-20 min, and the TW2 method saved time for radiologists doctor. Conclusion Sharing TW2 bone age algorithm through the network can be quick and easy.

Objective To compare the accuracy of stroke volume variation (SVV),central venous pressure (CVP) and puhnonary arterial wedge pressure (PAWP) in monitoring the changes in blood volume in the patients undergoing renal transplantation.Methods Sixteen patients with chronic renal failure,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,aged 18-55 yr,scheduled for elective allograft renal transplantation under general anesthesia,were enrolled in the study.SVV was continuously monitored with the FloTrac/Vigileo monitor,and CVP,PAWP and stroke volume index (SVI) were continuously monitored with the volumetric pulmonary artery catheter during surgery.The parameters of hemodynamics were recorded at 30 min after induction of anesthesia,5 min before renal artery opening,5 and 30 min after renal artery opening,and at the end of surgery.Hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 electrolyte solution 6 ml/kg was infused over 15 min via the central venous catheter to perform fluid responsiveness starting from 30 min after induction of anesthesia.Positive fluid responsiveness was defined as the change in SVI ≥ 15％.The relationship between SVV and CVP and between SVV and PAWP was analyzed using the Pearson correlation analysis.The receiver operating characteristic curve for CVP,SVV and PAWP in monitoring the changes in blood volume was drawn,and the area under the curve was calculated.Results Compared with the value at 5 min before renal artery opening,SVV was significantly increased after renal artery opening (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in CVP and PAWP after renal artery opening (P＞0.05).SVV was negatively correlated with CVP,and r=-0.82 (P＜0.01);SVV was negatively correlated with PAWP,and r=-0.77 (P＜0.01).The area under the curve of SVV in monitoring the changes in blood volume was 0.87,and of CVP and PAWP was 0.69 and 0.66,respectively.Conclusion SVV provides better accuracy than CVP and PAWP in monitoring the changes in blood volume in the patients undergoing renal transplantation.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between blood pressure, blood glucose or blood lipids and patients with cerebral infarction (CI) or intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in diff erent age or gender. Methods: hT e case-control study consecutively recruited patients with if rst-ever-in-a-lifetime CI (n=358) and ICH (n=230) and community-acquired pneumonia (n=165) as controls between January 2010 and December 2013 at the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. hT epatients with CI or ICH were divided into the young group, the middle-aged group and the older group, and the risk factors were compared between the 3 groups. hTe patients with CI or ICH were respectively further divided into the male group and the female group. hTe blood pressure, glucose and lipids were measured. Results: Data from logistic regression models showed that CI was closely associated with high blood pressure, hypertension, diabetes mellitus (DM) or fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (P<0.05), and ICH was closely related to high blood pressure, hypertension, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), FPG, serum creatinine (SCr) or alcohol drinking (P<0.05); hypertension was the main risk factor for stroke. hTe odds ratios for the young, the middle-aged and older group were 10.43, 4.74 and 7.39 respectively (P<0.05). Systolic blood pressure (OR=28.74) was the important risk factor for the young stroke, and the OR is 2.81 for the middle-aged stroke. Diastolic blood pressure (OR=2.96) and DM (OR=6.25) were the risk factor for the middle-aged stroke. LDL-C (OR=2.87) was a risk factor for the older stroke; the mean levels of diastolic blood pressure in males were signiifcantly increased compared with that in females with CI, while the mean levels of TC, HDL-C or LDL-C in females were signiifcantly higher than that in males with ICH (P<0.05). Conclusion: Hypertension, systolic blood pressure in particular, is the most common risk factor for young stroke patients. DM and hypertension are the risk factors for the middle-aged patients, while hypertension, DM, LDL-C and alcohol consuming are the risk factors for the aged patients.

Objective To demonstrate the histology in acellular dermal matrix(ADM)after being transplanted in vivo over time. Methods Forty male SD rats were recruited for the experiment. Subcutaneous implantation of an 1 cm × 1 cm ADM was given in the left sides on the back of the rat for the experimental group, while only dissection and suturing were performed in right side of the back for the control group. All the animals will be sacrificed at appointed time after operation, Five ADM samples were harvested in each time point. The content and proportion of collagen type were examined with HE staining, Picrosirius staining, Masson′s trichrome staining, and Immunohistochemical staining (targets: pan macrophage, M1 macrophage and M2 macrophage). Results All rats survived after operative without any complications. Significant differences of thickness were not observed at the end of 5 months; HE scores suggested that ADM increased in cell infiltration scores in 2 weeks before the plateau , vascularity also showed a similar trend; Collagen trichrome staining showed a substantial increase in density of collagen bundles with time. The comparison of the proportion of collagen among days showed significant differences (P < 0.05). Immunohistochemical staining of M1 and M2 showed that macrophages had distinct polarization profiles in materials. Furthermore, the comparison of M1 vs M2 response associated with different materials showed significant differences in all time points (P < 0.05). Conclusions The chemically cross-linked ADM could keep long time in the body; ADM significantly stimulated proinflammatory of M2 differentiation from M1 in constructive remodeling.

Objective To investigate the effect of prebiotics supplement on intestinal epithelial tight junctions and barrier function of the rats with acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods The AP model in Wistar rat was established by intraperitoneal injection of L-arginine. The rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group, AP group, GOS group. GOS was given 4g·kg-1·d-1at 7d before ANP induced. Twelve hours after modeling, the AP rats in each group were sacrificed. 2 ml of blood sample was taken from heart for the analysis of plasma diamine oxidase (DAO) activity. Jejunum was taken for histological examination. The transmembrane binding proteins (occludin) were measured with immunohistochemistry. Results The plasma DAO level in AP group was (7.29±0.68) U/L, and significantly higher than (2.01±0.34) U/L of control group (P＜0.01). The DAO level in GOS group was (3.44±0.59) U/L, and significantly lower than that of AP group. The occludin protein level in AP group was 95.1±9.2, and significantly lower than 44.7±8.2 of control group and 59.7±7.8 of GOS group (P＜0.01). The occludin protein level in COS group was significantly higher than that of control group (P＜0.05). Conclusions The prebiotics may increase the expression of occludin protein, enhance the intestinal epithelial tight junction, maintain the intestinal permeability, and protect the intestinal barrier function.
