OBJECTIVE:To investigate the characteristics of serious ADR in psychiatric hospital,and to provide reference for effective and safe use of drugs in the clinic. METHODS:114 cases of serious ADR in our hospital from 2004 to 2015 were ana-lyzed retrospectively in terms of general information,primary disease,route of administration,dosage form,drug types,organs or systems involved in ADR and clinical manifestations,top 5 ADR-inducing drugs and main clinical manifestations,etc. RESULTS:Of 114 serious ADR cases,the number of female was more than that of male(71/43). Patients aged 21-30 years old took up the greatest proprotion(35 cases,30.70%). The main involved primary disease was schizophrenia(54 cases,47.37%). Oral adminis-tration-induced ADR was most common(103 cases,90.35%). The main involved drugs were antipsychotics,occupying the great-est proportion(75 cases,65.79%). Digestive system involved was the most common(53 cases,42.74%), Olanzapine tablets had the highest incidence of serious ADR (23 cases,18.55%),the main clinical manifestation were both abnormal liver function. There were 8 cases of new serious ADR (7.02%). Most of the ADR can be cured after drug withdrawal or countermeasures,no death case was found. CONCLUSIONS:Psychiatric drugs can induce serious ADR as treat psychiatric disease,among which the in-cidence of ADR induced by Olanzapine tablets is the highest and mainly manifestes digestive system symptoms. It is suggested to strengthen serious ADR monitoring to promote the safe use of drugs.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Qianyang Mixture for the treatment of perimenopause hypertension. Methods Eighty cases of perimenopause hypertension patients were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, with 40 cases in each group. The two groups were given Amlodipine Besylate Tablets for oral taking, one tablet each time, once a day. The treatment group was treated with Qianyang Mixture, 35 mL for each time, twice a day, 1 h after meal. Course of treatment was 12 weeks. The changes of blood pressure, heart rate and sex hormone level of patients in both groups were observed, and efficacy of TCM syndrome were evaluated. Results After treatment, the heart rate, average daily blood pressure and morning blood pressure of the treatment group were lower than those of the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05);After the treatment, the levels of estradiol in the treatment group were higher than those in the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The total effective rate was 92.5% (37/40) in the treatment group and 80.0% (32/40) in the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion Qianyang Mixture can obviously reduce blood pressure and heart rate of patients with perimenopause hypertension, and can regulate hormone levels, improve TCM symptoms.

BACKGROUND:The age, complication, injury to operation time, and pain level are important factors that affect patients with postoperative mortality, but many scholars disagree. Factors affecting death in elderly patients after femoral head replacement stil need further study. OBJECTIVE:To observe factors related to the survival status of elderly patients within 1 year after receiving femoral head replacement. METHODS:A total of 96 elderly patients receiving femoral head replacement at Department of Orthopedics, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University from January 2011 to January 2014 were selected. On admission, patients’ age, sex, time from injury to operation, injury to admission time, pain classification, admission hemoglobin, serum albumin content of admission, admission lymphocyte count, and the amount of blood transfusion and preoperative complications were recorded. Fisher test was used to analyze the factors affecting survival status within 1 year after replacement in patients with femoral head replacement using one-way analysis of variance. Multivariate Cox test was utilized to perform multi-factor analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The injury to hospital time was > 5 days. Pain classification was grades III and IV. The hemoglobin content was < 120 g/L on admission. The volume of blood transfusion was > 1 000 mL. Serum albumin content was < 35 g/L, which was associated with the increased mortality (P < 0.05). The mortality was significantly higher in patients with more than 86 years old than in patients with 70-85 years old (P < 0.05). The mortality of patients with the time from injury to operation > 7 days was significantly higher than patients with the time from injury to operation < 7 days (P < 0.05). The serum albumin content < 35 g/L and grades III and IV of ASA classification were factors related to patient’s death (P < 0.05). Results confirm that the risk factors for survival status within 1 year of femoral head replacement contain intraoperative volume of blood transfusion, admission to operation time, hemoglobin content, and grading of pain.

Objective To evaluate the preliminary clinical outcome of the screw fixation of minimally displaced scaphoid fracture assisted by computerized imaging reconstruction and preoperative planning system.Methods From March 2013 to Feburary 2014,Five screws on five patients were treated.We calculated and designed the position of scaphoid screw guide wire and ensured the guide wire centrally placed in the scaphoid by using the computerized imaging reconstruction and preoperative planning system software.The appropriate length of the screw was measured too in the software.We also identified the entry and exit points of the guide wire on the custom orthoses splinting the wrist joint.Five patients with scaphoid fractures were treated with percutaneous screw fixation under the guidance of a C-arm fluoroscopy and a guide wire were inserted based on the entry and exit points calculated preoperatively.All of the scaphoid fracture was nondisplaced or less than 1 mm.The modified MAYO wrist scoring system was used to evaluate the pain,function and range of motion for the wrist joint during follow up.Results Total surgical time was 28.8 min (25-39 min)and Fluoroscopy time was 18.4 s (11-23 s).The fracture healing was observed at routine 8 weeks follow up.No complication such as infection or fixation failure was reported.Modified MAYO wrist score was 83.8 (81-88)at average followup at 15 months (6-12 months).Conclusion Computer assisted percutaneous screw fixation is an effective method for the treatment of nondisplaced scaphoid fractures.It leads to significantly reduced guidewire placement time and radiological exposure time while provides accurate placement of the screw.

Through a series of chemical reactions, a kind of quaternary ammonium salt derivative of nanodiamond, ND-CO-NH-CH2-CH2-N ( CH3 ) 3+· I-( QAS-ND ) , was obtained , which was confirmed by FTIR, element analysis experiment and the electrochemistry measurements. Mixed myoglobin ( Mb) and QAS-ND solution was dropped on the surface of the glassy carbon ( GC ) electrode to prepare QAS-ND/Mb/GC modified electrode. In 0. 1 mol/L phosphate buffer solution (PBS) (pH 7. 0), Mb in the membrane exhibited direct electrochemical properties and showed good stability. The electrocatalytic property of the modified electrode toward H2 O2 was investigated, the results showed that the modified electrode could be used as the H2O2 biosensor to achieve fast, accurate detection of H2O2, with a detection limit of 3. 5 mmol/L (S/N=3).

ABSTRACT:Objective To study the expressions of adrenomedullin (ADM)andβ-catenin in human osteosarcoma of different differentiation grading and their clinical significance.Methods We chose 33 cases of human osteosarcoma with different pathological grading (14 cases of high differentiation grading and 1 9 cases of low grading)and 10 cases of human osteochondroma to detect the expressions of ADM protein,total (T)β-catenin and phosphorylated (P)β-catenin using immunohistochemical method. Results The expression of ADM was detected in the cytoplasm.In osteosarcomas of higher and lower differentiation grading,the positive rate of ADM was 57.1% (8/14)and 100% (1 9/1 9),respectively,with significant differences (P =0.003<0.05).The expression of T-β-catenin was observed in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus in higher differentiation grading and in only cytoplasm in lower grading.In osteosarcomas of higher and lower differentiation grading,the positive rate of T-β-catenin was 85.7%(12/14)and 94.7% (18/1 9),with no significant difference (P =0.561>0.05).The expression of P-β-catenin was detected in the cytoplasm.In osteosarcomas of higher and lower differentiation grading,the positive rate of P-β-catenin was 35.7% (5/14)and 78.9% (1 5/1 9),with a significant difference (P =0.029 <0.05).There was a significant correlation between ADM and P-β-catenin (r =0.424,P =0.025<0.05),but no significant correlation between ADM and T-β-catenin (P = 0.078 > 0.05 )or between T-β-catenin and P-β-catenin (P = 0.052 > 0.05 ).Conclusion The expressions of ADM and P-β-catenin proteins and the different distributions of expression of T-β-catenin protein in cytoplasm and/or nucleus are important indicators for judging the pathological grading of osteo-sarcoma.
