China Pharmacy 2005;0(18):-
OBJECTIVE: To guarantee safety of drug use in medical institutions of Yangpu District of Shanghai and to promote rational use of drugs. METHODS: 159 ADR cases reported to Shanghai ADR Monitoring Center by 3 secondary hospitals of Yangpu District of Shanghai in 2009 were analyzed statistically. RESULTS: 71 kinds of drugs were involved in 159 ADR cases. 99 ADR cases were induced by antibiotics(62.26%). 14 ADR cases were induced by hypotensive and antianginal drugs (8.81%). 10 ADR cases were caused by TCM preparations (6.29%). 123 ADR cases were caused by intravenous route (77.36%). ADR incidence of male was higher than female (1.2 ∶ 1). 63 ADR cases were patients over 60 years old (39.62%). Main clinical manifestation were lesion of skin and its appendants in 75 cases (47.17%). There were 6 new ADR cases,5 severe ADR cases and 1 dead case. CONCLUSION: Great importance should be attached to ADR monitoring and reporting in order to promote rational use of drug.

Objective To survey changes and the significance of phospholipase A2(PLA2) on brain tissue of SD rat in acute pancreatitis. Methods With retrograde injection of 3% taurocholate sodium into pancreatic and biliary duct, rat model of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) was made,and it included four groups: the control group, the sham-operation group, the SAP group and the PLA2 inhibitor-treated group of SAP. Serum amylases, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue were measured and the brain tissue changes were observed. Results There were no significant difference in serum amylases, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue between the sham-operation and the control groups; the levels of serum amylases, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue in the SAP group were higher than those in the control. In the SAP group expansion and hemorrhage of meninges, intracephalic arteriolar hyperemia, in meninges and cephalic-parenchyma infiltration of inflammatory cells and interval broaden were observed, significant differences were found between two groups.Compared with the SAP group, the level of serum amylase, PLA2 and PLA2 in brain tissue were reduced significantly in the treatment group of SAP. Pathological damages in the treatment group were significantly reduced when compared with the SAP group. Conclusion PLA2 might play an important role in brain tissue damages in severe acute pancreatitis.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of acupuncture combined with training of the modified rehabilitation apparatus on upper limb motor function of patients with ischemic stroke.Methods86 patients with ischemic stroke were divided randomly into the treatment group ( treated by acupuncture combined with training of the rehabilitation apparatus) and the control group (treated by simple acupuncture). The upper limb motor function of two groups was evaluated by Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) before and after treatment.ResultsAfter 28 days treatment, scores of FMA of two groups were all raised significantly, but it was significantly greater for the treatment group than the control group (P<0.01).ConclusionIt is shown that acupuncture combined with training of the rehabilitation apparatus can improve the upper limb motor function and activity of daily living of patients with ischemic stroke.

Objective To observe the damage to Langerhans cells induced by UVB irradiation,and to evaluate photoprotective effect of these cells from UVB irradiation by epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG).Methods Biopsy specimens were obtained from normal adult foreskin,and epidermal cells were isolated.Density gradient centrifugation and magnetic cell sorting were used simultaneously to purify Langerhans cells from the cell suspension.These cells were then divided into three groups,control (no ir- radiation or EGCG treatment),UVB (irradiation) and EGCG (irradiation+ECCG treatment) groups. The cells in the UVB and EGCG group were irradiated by UVB (30 mJ/cm~2).After the irradiation,the U- VB group was incubated with RPMI-1640 containing 10% bovine serum for 4 hours,while the EGCG group with the same medium containing 200?g/mL of EGCG for 4 hours.Another four hours after the treatment, the cells were collected for the detection of apoptosis rate by propidium iodide staining and flow cytometry. Results Exposure to UVB (30 mJ/cm~2) significantly increased the apoptotic rate of Langerhans cells.The apoptotic rate in EGCG group was significantly lower than that in the UVB group,but was higher than that in the control group.Conclusion Rate of apoptosis of Langerhans cells could be increased by UVB irradia- tion,while EGCG could prevent the increase of apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the expression of microRNA-34a (miR-34a) and silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) in human lens epithelial cells under H2O2-induced oxidative stress.Methods Different concentrations of H2O2 (0 μmol · L-1,100 μ mol· L-1,200 μmol · L-1,300 μmol · L-1,and 400 μmol · L-1) were used to stimulate SRA01/04 cells for 24 hours.Cell viability was measured using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay.Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry.Expression levels of miR-34a/SIRT1 were measured by RT-PCR.Results CCK-8 assay showed that a certain concentration range of H2O2 had a proliferation inhibition on SRA01/04 cells.There was a dose response relationship between 100 μmol · L-1 and 400 μmol · L-1.Compared with 0 μmol · L-1 H2O2 group,the difference was statistically significant (all P < 0.01).According to flow cytometry results,apoptotic rate of SRA01/04 cells in control group and H2O2(100-300 μmol · L-1) groups were (6.1 ± 1.2)%,(26.3 ± 1.8)%,(32.5 ± 2.2) %,and (64.7 ± 5.3) %.Compared with 0 μmol · L-1 H2 O2 group,the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.01).RT-PCR test results showed that the expression of miR-34a increased significantly in a dose-dependent manner after the SRA01/04 cells treated with different concentrations of H2O2,while SIRT1 expression level was decreased,there were significant differences compared with control group (all P < 0.001).Conclusion There is a significantly increase of miR-34a and decrease of SIRT1 in human lens epithelial cells under the oxidative stress of a certain concentration of H2O2.Down-regulated expression of miR-34a can increase the survival rate of human lens epithelial cells under H2O2-induced oxidative stress.

Objective To assess the influence of PBL formation study effectiveness of TCM students.Methods The controlled studies with the teaching format of both PBL and LBL were included to assess the effectiveness of learning,by searching CBM,CNKI and VIP database.All data was analyzed on Revman 5.1.Results 9 articles were included ; All were low in the quality of their methodology,and the theoretical scores of students in PBL or LBL format shows no statistical difference [SMD=3.76,95% CI ( -0.62,8.15 ) ].PBL format was superior to LBL on students' practical scores [SMD=7.62,95% CI ( 3.92,11.32 ) ]; Compared to LBL format,PBL proved to have a better influence on students' self-assessment for learning ability[OR=3.69,95% CI( 1.88,7.21 )].Conclusion PBL helps to enhance the activeness of students,to improve their practical ability,which is valuable if applied in clinical concerned courses.But the included studies were low in quality; more rigorously randomized controlled teaching trials are expected to verify the conclusion.
