Objective To explore the control measures of drug induced liver disease.Methods The age,disease drugs,clinical manifestations,treatment and prognosis of 162 cases with drug induced liver disease were analyzed retrospectively.Results Drug induced liver disease incidence in different age groups are slightly more old age group,Lead to liver damage to many types of drugs,a common anti-TB drugs and other lipid-lowering medicine and Chinese herbal medicine and health drugs can not be ignored.Clinical performance of drug-induced liver disease is different,mostly had good prognosis after treatment,a few turn into cirrhosis,a very small number of fulminant hepatic failure or even death.Conclusion Avoid the use of the drug that may injure the liver,liver protection must also drugs should be regularly reviewed liver function.

Edema, as one of common clinical diseases, could be treated by taking medicines and adopting external therapies with traditional Chinese medicines (TCM). In recent years, there have been many clinical and basic studies concerning external therapies with TCM on edema Data showed that the external therapies are mostly composed of such purgating drugs as Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, Natrii Sulfas and Pharbitidis Semen, heat-clearing drug such as Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex and resuscitation-inducing drug such as Borneolum Syntheticum. The study showed that ingredients of external therapies did not pass through hilum and hepatic system, and thus avoided the first pass effect of livers. They enabled effective components of drugs to be rapidly absorbed through pores and skins, strengthened the effect against edema, shortened the treatment course, decreased side effects, and were convenient and inexpensive. External therapies with TCM could play unique advantages in inhibiting edema in the future clinical studies.

Objective To investigate etiology and clinical features of acute pancreatitis (AP) in young patients. Methods In total, 423 patients with AP admitted to Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, Hubei province during January 2006 to December 2009 were retrospectively analyzed, 55 cases aged 34 years or less as young group and another 55 cases aged more than 34 years as middle- and elderly-age group. Their etiology, clinical features and illness scores based on some standard criteria were assessed. Results Proportion of varied etiologies of AP in young group was different from that in middle- and elderly-age one (x2 = 17. 107, P = 0. 009) , mainly as biliary and idiopathic pancreatitis in young group and as biliary and alcoholic pancreatitis in middle- and elderly-age one. Incidence of diet-related and idiopathic pancreatitis were higher in young group than that in middle- and elderly-age one ( x2 =4. 853, P = 0. 028 and x2=4. 274, P = 0. 039 ). Scores of the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II ( APACHE II ) , Ranson criteria and the bedside index for severity in acute pancreatitis ( BISAP) were all lower in young group than those in middle- and elderly-age one (t = 5. 381 , P = 0. 000; t = 4. 388 , P = 0. 000 and t=3. 083, P = 0. 003 ) . There was no statistically significant difference in scores of computed tomography severity index ( CTSI) between young group and middle- and elderly-age one (t = ±0. 750, P > 0. 05 ) . Recurrence rate of AP was lower in young group than that in middle- and elderly-age one ( x2 =4. 251, P = 0. 039). Cholecystitis was more complicated in young group, pregnancy was more complicated in young group (x2 =4. 151 , P =0. 042) , and elevated blood glucose was more complicated in middle- and elderly-age one (x2 = 13. 285 , P = 0. 000 ) . Conclusions Etiology of AP varies in young patients with more dietary factors, occurrence of systemic complications and risks for death are lower in young group than those in middle- and elderly-age one, and there was no statistically significant difference in local complications and severity of illness between the two groups.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efifcacy of alarm treatment in a sample of China monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MNE) children and adolescents with smaller than expected bladder capacity (EBC) for age.Methods Fifteen MNE pa-tients with a smaller than age-expected BC and without nocturia were included. All the patients were treated with enuretic alarm and water restriction 2 hours before sleep. All patients were followed up monthly. A success criterion was deifned as “14 con-secutive dry nights” after successive 2-3 months treatment. A relapse criterion was deifned as “more than two wet nights every two weeks” after therapy discontinuation. The relapsed patients were treated with enuretic alarm and followed up again.Results The patients consisted of 9 boys and 6 girls. The mean age was 9.76±4.24 years (6-15 years). Thirteen patients were successfully cured after three months treatment. Two patients discontinued the treatment and received the treatment of desmopressin. Five patients relapsed and received the enuresis alarm treatment again. Four patients had never relapsed, and one failed. The cure rate was 80%.Conclusions The enuretic alarm device is effective on MNE patients with a smaller than age-expected BC and without nocturia.
