To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of compound Danshen injection in treating hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) of newborns. Computer retrievals were made in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI, VIP and China info (before May 2014) and relevant literature references, and manual retrievals were made for journals and conference papers, in order to collect randomized or semi-randomized controlled trials concerning compound Danshen injection in the treatment of neonatal HIE. The quality of included references was evaluated according to literatures recommended by Cochrane Handbook. RevMan 5. 3 software was applied in the statistical treatment. Finally, a total of 13 randomized controlled trials were included, covering 1,211 patients (including 639 patients in the compound Danshen injection-treated group and 572 patients in the control group). Meta-analysis results showed that the routine treatment combined with compound Danshen injection can improve the treatment efficiency of neonatal HIE [RR = 1.28; 95% CI (1.21-1.36)], reduce the mortality rate [RR = 0.42; 95% CI (0.23-0.75)] and the incidence of long-term neurological sequelae [RR = 0.48; 95% CI (0.35-0.65)], with statistical differences. No fatal side effect was observed in all of included trials. So far, limited evidences in this study proved that the application of compound Danshen injection in the treatment of neonatal HIE can enhance the clinical efficiency. However, because of the low quality of the included trials, more well-designed and large-scale multi-center randomized controlled trials shall be made in the future.

Objective To investigate the variation of biomarker of coagulation, anti-coagulation, fibrinolysis in elderly critical patients and find out whether they are related to the disease severity. Methods Sixty-seven patients were no less than 60 years old. Eligible criteria: coincidence with the diagnostic criteria of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and APACHE Ⅱ score was no less than 10 scores. Blood sample was drawn from the venous for the test of biomarker (APTT, PT, TT, D-D, Fib, AT-Ⅲ , PC, PAI-1). According to the existent status,all the patients were divided into two groups:survival group (43 cases) and death group(24 cases) ,meanwhile,according to the diagnostic criteria of MODSE,all the patients were divided into MODSE group (30 cases) and non-MODSE group (37 cases). Results There were significant differences in APACHE Ⅱ score between MODSE group and non-MODSE group, survival group and death group [(25.83 ± 1.19) scores vs(18.1±20.73) scores and(18.81±0.72) scores vs(26.50 ± 1.42) scores](P <0.01). The PT and D-D in MODSE group anti death group were higher than those in non-MODSE group and survival group, the differences were significant (P <0.05),while the activity of AT-Ⅲand PC in MODSE group and death group were lower than those in non-MODSE group and survival group, the differences were significant (P <0.05). The PT,D-D and PAI-1 were positively correlated to APACHE Ⅱ score (related coefficients were 0.328, 0.308, 0.335,P <0.05). The AT-Ⅲ and PC were negatively correlated to APACHE Ⅱ score (related coefficients were -0.469, -0.559,P <0.01). Conclusions The abnormality of eoagnlation-fibfinolysis system exists in elderly critical patients. The extended PT, elevated D-D and PAI-1 ,descended PC and AT-Ⅲ are the hints of disease severity and poor prognosis.

Objective The combination of vasopressin and epinephrine has long been thought to be more effective then epinephrine alone in cardiopulrnonary resuscitation (CPR), evidence is not enough to make such a clinical recommendation. This meta-analysis compared the efficacy of vasopressin and epinephrine used together versus epinephrine alone in cardiac arrest (ca) in order to verify the truth. Method MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched for the data of randomized trials in comparing the results of co-administration of vasopressin and epinephrine with epinephrine alone in adults with cardiac arrest. The primary outcome was the restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Results Six randomized trials in 485 articles were analyzed. We failed to get the results supporting the effectiveness of this combination therapy, except for the rate of 24 hours survival (OR: 2.99,95%CI:1.43 ~ 6.28). No evidence supported that vasopressin combined with epinephrine was better than epinephrine alone in ROSC. Conclusions This systematic review indicates the combination of vasopressin and epinephrine is better for the rate of 24 hpurs survival in only 122 patients. Further investigation is needed to support the use of combination therapy for cardiac arrest.

This paper is aim to investigate the pharmacokinetics and absolute bioavailability of neoline in Beagle dogs, and provide a theoretical basis for further study. Ethyl acetate was used for liquid-liquid extracting after 10% ammonia alkalizing. The method of UPLC-Q-TOF-MS was established for the determination of neoline plasma concentrations. Beagle dogs were orally or intravenously administered with neoline for pharmacokinetic and absolute bioavailability study. Good linear relationship of neoline was found over the range of 0.1-4 mg x L(-1) (R2 = 0.9982) and 2-100 microg x L(-1) (R2 = 0.9945). Intra-and inter-day precision, expressed as the relativestandard (RSD) were less than 5.0%. Accuracy, expressed as the relative error (RE) was within 90.0%-115%. The recovery of neoline in dog plasma was more than 80%. After 6 mg x kg(-1) for ig and 1 mg x kg(-1) for iv administration of neoline, the main pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed with Winnonlin software. t(1/2) were (313.88 +/- 63.18), (236.33 +/- 229.84) min, and AUC(0-infinity) were (58,027.40 +/- 14,132.69), (473,578.02 +/- 82,333.08) min x microg x L(-1) for ig and iv administration respectively. The absolute bioavail ability was (73.15 +/- 10.29) %. The method of UPLC-Q-TOF-MS described in the report was sensitive, reliable and specific, and suitable for pharmacokinetic study of neoline in Beagle dog. The high absolute bioavailability of neoline in dog suggested good absorption of neline which was worth of further investigation.
