Objective: To evaluate the efficiency and safety of ibandronate at the initial loading dose in the treatment of metastatic bone pain (MBP) induced by non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Thirty cases of NSCLC patients who were admitted to our hospital from May 2006 to July 2007 were retrospectively analyzed. They received loading dose of ibandronate for MBP treatment. Ibandronate was given to the patients intravenously at initial loading dose of 6 mg for more than 15 min on 3 consecutive days. Then ibandronate was administered repeatedly at 6 mg every 3 to 4 months. The response time, pain score, QOL score, daily morphine consumption dose were recorded. The serum markers such as calcium, creatinine, alkaline phosphatase (AKP) were monitored. Results: Twenty nine cases were eligible to evaluate the efficiency and safety. Among them, the MBP of 25 cases (86.2%) were relieved. Their average response time was 2.9 ± 0.8 days. The pain score was significantly decreased after treatment and the life qualities of patients were markedly improved (P <0.001). The morphine consumption dose was reduced by about 20 to 40 mg in 4 cases after treatment. The serum calcium level increased in 7 patients before treatment and declined to the normal level after treatment. The adverse reaction was relieved after treatment and no renal toxicity was observed. Conclusion: Administration of ibandronate at initial loading dose had quick on-set and mild side effects. It could significantly relieve metastasis bone pain and improve QOL, reduce the morphine consumption dose and avoid morphine-induced adverse reaction, and effectively decrease serum calcium level. Administration of ibandronate at initial loading dose is a new promising option for treatment of the MBP in NSCLC.

OBJECTIVETo observe the immediate analgesic effect of tendon acupuncture on soft tissue injury in different sites.

METHODSA total of 140 cases of soft tissue injury, involving 14 injury sites, were treated with tendon acupuncture. According to the principle of "considering pain as acupoint", based on injury sites, one to three tendon acupoints were selected in each tendon, which were treated with 1 to 5 times. Totally 676 times Of treatment was given. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the immediate. analgesic effect before and after the treatment.

RESULTSAfter the treatment, the score of VAS was significantly reduced (4. 20+ 1. 77 vs 2. 43 ± 1. 30, P<0. 001); regardless of the total number of treatment, the score of VAS after each acupuncture was obviously reduced compared with that before acupuncture (all P<0. 001); the score of VAS at each injury sites after treatment was significantly reduced compared with that before treatment (all P<0. 001).

CONCLUSIONThere is an immediate analgesic effect of tendon acupuncture for different sites of soft tissue injury. Also, the effect has been shown in different frequencies of treatment.

Objective To analyze the advantages of combined analysis of allergen skin prick test(SPT)and phadiatop/specific IgE antibody on the allergen diagnosis in asthmatic children.Methods Inhalant allergen SPT and Phadiatop test were done in 57 asthmatic children.Thirty-three cases of those asthmatic children were measured serum specific IgE antibody against dermatophagoids pteronyssinus.Results Dermatophagoids,molds and pets were the main inhalant allengens in asthmatic children.The positive rates of SPT and Pha-(diatop) in 57 asthmatic children were 86% and 79%,respectively,and the consistence rate between SPT and Phadiatop was 86%.Five cases with negative Phadiatop were confirmed to have molds allergy via SPT and molds specific IgE test.The consistence rate of dermatophagoids pteronyssinus SPT and specific IgE was 97%.Conclusion It is helped to improve the sensitivity and specificity of allergen diagnosis in asthmatic children when doctors combined analyze the results of allergen skin prick test and specific IgE test.

Polyketides are very large group of natural products with functional and structural diversity.Most of them are produced by microor- ganism and have medicinal activities,including antibiotic,anticancer,antifungal and antiparasitic properties.The researchs in this area have progressed greatly.More and more polyketides are discovered,on the other hand the mechanisms of biosynthesis of those various polyketides are researched more deeply and clearly.The article reviewed the progress of the research in the diversity of polyketide synthases and the mechanisms of polyketide biosynthesise.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the formulation of Asiaticoside cationic liposomes,and to investigate the characteristics of drug release in vitro. METHODS:The thin film dispersion method was used to prepare liposome;using encapsulation efficiency and drug-loading amount as index,the formulation of Asiaticoside liposomes was optimized by central composite design-response surface method with the ratio of drug to lipid(X1),the ratio of cholesterol to lipid(X2)and the concentration of D-mannose(X3) as factors. Using sodium lauryl sulfate as medium,in vitro release characteristics of cationic liposomes prepared with 1%octadecyl-amine was investigated by bag filter method,and compared with those of Asiaticoside solution and common liposome. RESULTS:The optimal formulation was X1 0.07,X2 0.17 and X3 0.03 g/ml. The encapsulation efficiency was (75.529 ± 1.071)%,and drug-loading amount was(2.539±0.029)%(n=3);the deviation from the predicted values were -0.217% and 0.205%;1% oc-tadecylamine was add into formulation to obtain cationic liposomes,and the Zeta potential had changed from -5.6 mV to 20.8 mV. in vitro accumulative release rates of Asiaticoside solution,common liposomes and cationic liposomes were 89.13%(12 h), 87.58%(72 h) and 94.46%(72 h),and the latter was in line with Weibull model. CONCLUSIONS:Asiaticoside cationic lipo-somes have high encapsulation efficiency,and can releases for 72 h.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical and etiologic characteristics and treatment of central venous catheter-related(sepsis).METHODS Forty cases of patients with central venous catheter-related sepsis and their clinical manifestation,etiologic profiles and outcome of treatment were retrospectively analyzed.RESULTS Forty six strains were isolated including 23 strains of Gram-positive cocci,19 of Gram-negative bacilli and 4 of fungi.The most frequent(isolates) were Staphylococcus epidermidis.CONCLUSIONS The most common organism causing CRS is S.epidermidis;the key preventive measure is to avoid inner and outer pollution of catheter;antibiotic lock-technique can be taken for the treatment of uncertain CRS.If it is no effect after 24-48 hours,it is necessary to remove venous catheter promptly.

Objective The clinical effect of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation in the treatment of senile cataract.Methods120 cases of senile cataract patients in September 2014 ~2016 year in December in our hospital, were randomly divided into two groups: the observation group after phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation, the control group was treated with small incision non phacoemulsification extracapsular cataract extraction.In the comparison of two groups.ResultsAfter treatment, the observation group was 0.5~0.9 the proportion of 51.7%, visual acuity>1 the proportion of 6.7% were significantly higher than control group (P<0.05);the complication rate of observation group was 43.3% lower than the control group 61.7%, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionPhacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation in senile cataract patients can effectively improve patients' visual acuity, control the occurrence of complications, and the prognosis is good.
