Objective To explore the association of galactose-deifcient IgA1 levels with clinical features, and further to provide guidance for individualized treatment of HSP. Methods According to the clinical symptoms and curative effect, 57 children with HSP were divided into four groups:non-HSPN group (n=26), HSPN group (n=7), refractory HSP group (n=7) and remission group (n=17). In non-HSPN group, 12 cases received glucorticoid therapy and 14 cases did not. Serum galactose-de-ifcient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1) concentrations were detected using a Helix aspersa-lectin-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the total IgA1 levels were measured by ELISA. Results The serum Gd-IgA1 level was signiifcantly higher in 40 HSP children who were not cured than that in remission group and control group (P<0.05). However, there was no difference in Gd-IgA1 level between remission group and control group (P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the serum Gd-IgA1 level was signiifcantly higher in HSPN group, non-HSPN group and refractory HSP, and children with refractory HSP had signiifcantly higher Gd-IgA1 level than children in non-HSPN group (P<0.05). No signiifcant difference in Gd-IgA1 level was found either between HSPN group and refractory HSP group or between HSPN group and non-HSPN group (P>0.05). Furthermore, in non-HSPN group, the serum Gd-IgA1 level in HSP children who were not treated with glucorticoid was signiifcantly higher than that in HSP children treated with glucorticoid (P<0.05). Conclusions The serum Gd-IgA1 level is associated with the disease activ-ity and curative effect of HSP, especially in children with refractory HSP, and it is thus likely to be a new non-invasive disease activity marker for guiding the proper usage of glucocorticoid and immunosuppressants in HSP children.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the affordability of 3 anti-tumor targeted drugs gefitinib,trastuzumab and sunitinib in ur-ban and rural residents of Hubei province,and to provide reference for medical insurance price admission of anti-malignant tumor targeted drugs in China. METHODS:Referring to the incidence of malignant tumor stated in statistical yearbook of Hubei province and income data of urban and rural residents in Hubei province,based on the policy of reducing the price of imported drugs by 50% mentioned in the national drug price negotiations,and assume the drugs are included in the medical insurance reimbursement list,WHO/HAI standard survey method,catastrophic expenditure evaluation method and poverty effect evaluation method were ad-opted to calculate the affordability of 3 drugs. RESULTS:According to WHO/HAI standard survey method,increment of payment for 3 drugs were 64.00%-74.00% before and after 50% discount and reimbursement. According to catastrophic expenditure evalua-tion method,50% discount of gefitinib and reimbursement gefitinib,trastuzumab and sunitinib in urban area would result in cata-strophic expenditures of 20.00%、59.28% and 35.48% patients;in rural area,would result in catastrophic expenditures of 50.63%、74.72% and 75.93% patients. According to poverty effect evaluation method,50% discount of 3 drugs and reimbursement caused less than 31.95% urban and rural patients falling to poverty. CONCLUSIONS:Fifty percentage discount of 3 anti-tumor targeted drugs mentioned in the national drug price negotiations cause the economic burden more serious for rural residents than urban resi-dents. In the formulation of policies,the corresponding reimbursement ratio should be adjusted according to urban and rural areas, drug price and disease types for a balance of patients with different economic burden.

Objective: To analyze the New Cooperative Medical System ( NCMS ) funds and Individual afford-ability of anti-tumor targeted drugs under different medical insurance entry price, and to provide the basis for establis-hing the access price for medical insurance. Methods: Choosing Conmana or Kemer ( the lung cancer targeted drug) and Herceptin (breast cancer targeted drug) to analyze the Wuhan NRCMS operating status from 2012 to 2014, use tumor surveillance data from Hubei Province during the period from 2011 to 2015;consult clinical experts to form expert consensus price, refer to the Jiangsu Province Access Price and National Negotiation Price, and explore the fund bal-ance and individual affordability when the afore-mentioned two kinds of drugs can be compensated by medical insurance under different price. Results:The basic account balances of NRCMS in Wuhan from 2016 to 2018 are-11. 948 million Yuan, 2. 513 million Yuan and 82. 955 million Yuan when Kemer can be compensated by medical insurance under Na-tional Negotiation Price. Taking the compensation of Herceptin under National Price after the bargaining, the basic ac-count balances are -26. 901 million Yuan,-35. 962 million Yuan and 17. 542 million Yuan respectively. The rate of poverty caused by illness falls to 33. 40% from 45. 85% when Conmana can be compensated by Medical Insurance un-der National Negotiation Price, while this rate falls to 45. 42% from 46. 00% for Herceptin. Conclusion:The two kinds of drugs can be afforded by the Wuhan NRCMS after the medical insurance access price is negotiated by the govern-ment, but the individual affordability of Herceptin at the National Negotiation Price is worse.
