China Pharmacy 2017;28(6):854-857
OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for improving the pharmacy self-taught undergraduate course system in general universities in China. METHODS:According to comparative study and researching related literatures,the situation of pharmacy self-taught undergraduate course system in general universities in China was analyzed,and reform ideas and programs were present-ed. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:Based onchemistry-biology-psychology-society-medicine-pharmacyin the overall framework of pharmacy undergraduate self-examination course system,it was designed with target of cultivating applied talents;related con-tents in public basic courses,humanities basic course and professional ethics course should throughout the whole teaching process;professional main course should be pharmaceutical knowledge-based,supplemented by medical related courses;the school should set vocational elective course to reform based on combining with the own teaching research direction,characteristics and career ori-entation of different self-taught students. The reform can develop applied talents with ability and political integrity,which meets the needs of social development.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the reasons of infusion reaction. METHODS The liquid and disposable infusion tubes were tested by limulus amebocyte lysate(LAL).Blood samples were collected when infusion reaction occurred and the bacteria in blood culture were detected. RESULTS A total of 58 cases of infusion reactions within two years were from clinical department.LAL of liquid infusion was positive in 5 cases.Two isolations were identified from liquid infusion respectively.LAL was negative and no isolation for the unsealed bottle of liquid drugs with same batch number.LAL was negative for samples of same lot infusion tubes.The main drugs caused infusion reaction were refined medical herbs,large molecule substance,blood products and the medicine contained potassium ion.53.4% infusion reactions occurred in autumn.The seniles had high incidence.Bacteria were isolated from 5 patients in blood culture after liquid infusion. CONCLUSIONS More than one reason that cause infusion reaction.It is important to reduce incidence of infusion reaction through quality control of infusion tubes and aseptic process in infusion.

Objective Valsartan, the angiotensin Ⅱ type 1 receptor blocker, is recently proved to reduce urinary albumin at the microalbuminuria stage in human diabetic nephropathy without altering glucose metabolism. But the pathway is still uncertain. In present study, we examined the changes of adrenomedullin receptor (ADMR) mRNA and protein expressions in the renal cortex of diabetic rats to investigate the protective effects of valsartan on an experimental model of diabetic renal injury. Method The SD rats were randomly divided into following groups: normal rats, STZ-induced diabetic rats, and diabetic rats treated with valsartan. STZ-induced diabetic rats were treated with valsartan (10mg/kg body weight) or vehicle for 8 weeks. The expressions of ADMR mRNA in renal cortex were analyzed by RT-PCR, as well as ADMR protein expressions were detected through western blot. Results We found (1) Valsartan treatments reduced urinary albumin excretion in 24h, compared with the untreated. But no notable difference was seen in HbA1c and blood sugar of diabetic rats between the two groups. (2) Valsartan treatments increased the expressions of ADMR mRNA and protein in diabetic rats renal cortex. Conclusion These results indicate that valsartan treatment can upgrade the expressions of ADMR in the renal cortex of diabetic rats. It may be one of renal protective pathways of Ang Ⅱ type 1 receptor blocker.

Objectives To evaluate the diagnostic value of real-time quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction( Q-RT-PCR ) assay and immunofluorescence assay for diagnosis of hMPV. Methods Totally 1 283 children with acute respiratory infection admitted in Jiaxing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital for treatment from November 2008 to May 2009 were recruited in this study. The hMPV positive stains were separated and sequenced in this area. The sequences between the local hMPV stains and Holland stains NLD00-1 were compared. The specific primers and fluorescent probe were designed according to the sequence of epidemic hMPV strain. The Taqman methodology was applied in Q-RT-PCR. Negative pressure suction was used to acquire nasopharyngeal secretions specimens. Both Q-RT-PCR and immunofluorescence with FITC labeled monoclonal antibody were used to analyze them, respectively. The McNemar, test was applied to analyze the correlation between the two methods. Results Totally 1 283 specimens were analyzed with Q-RT-PCR and immunofiuorescence simultaneously. Q-RT-PCR analysis showed there were 59 cases positive. Immunofluorescence analysis showed there were 55 cases positive. Fifty-two cases were positive in both assays. There were 7 cases positive in Q-RT-PCR assay but negative in immunofluorescence assay and 3 cases negative in Q-RT-PCR assay but positive in immunofluorescence assay. If Q-RT-PCR method was set as the golden standard, the sensitivity and specificity for immunofluorescence detection method were 88. 1%and 99. 8%, respectively. Positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 94. 5% and 99. 4%,respectively. There was no significant difference ( χ2= 0. 9, P > 0. 05 ) by McNemar' test between the two methods. Conclusion The diagnostic value of immunofluorescence assay is close to Q-RT-PCR assay.

Objective To establish a method for quantitative detection of hepatitis B virus covalently closed circular DNA(HBV cccDNA ) in infected cells. Methods The transfected cell line HepG2.2.15 which can consistently produce Dane particles was maintained in DMEM containing 380 ?g/ml G418 and 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells in the exponential period were harvested from flasks, then intracellular HBV cccDNA was extracted from pellet containing 1?10~6 cells with mini plasmid extraction kit (QIAGEN).The extraction product was further purified by mung bean nuclease to remove HBV relaxed circular DNA possibly remained. HBV cccDNA was quantitatively detected by fluorescent PCR with selective primer set and Taqman MGB probe. Culture medium before exponential period, HBV DNA positive and negative serum samples from patients with chronic hepatitis B (mild) were amplified simultaneously to test the specificity of the fluorescent PCR method. Plasmids containing whole HBV genome were amplified with the same primer set and fluorescent probe to determine the sensitivity of the method. Results HBV cccDNA was detectable in HepG2.2.15, and the average quantity was 18 copies per cell approximately. No detectable fluorescent signal was observed when culture and serum samples were amplified. The detectable HBV cccDNA was as low as 10~3 copies per ml at least by this method. Conclusions This method is convenient, highly specific and highly sensitive. It can be utilized in the quantitative detection of intracellular HBV cccDNA as well as in the screening and evaluation of antiviral agents.

Objective To study the relationship between hospital attributes and hospital social responsibility (HSR)behaviors,and measures to improve HSR performance.Methods 79 TCM hospitals in Jiangsu Province was surveyed with questionnaires for their HSR performance in 201 1 and 2012,with the data analyzed by independent two-sample t-test.Results In terms of HSR contribution,different levels of hospitals have statistical significance in bad debt,accomplishment of government mandatory missions,environmental protection,education and research,and social welfare activities.Hospitals in different regions have statistical significance in education and research,low-profit medical services and cheap drugs provision.Teaching hospitals make statistical significance in accomplishment of government mandatory missions,environmental protection,education and research,and social welfare activities.In terms of HSR willingness,different levels of hospitals have statistical significance in accomplishment of government mandatory missions,price discount,and education and research.Hospitals in different regions have statistical significance in health services with positive social effects,education and research,and social welfare activities.Teaching hospitals make statistical significance in education and research. Conclusions Secondary hospitals need to invest more resources on HSR.Hospitals in underdeveloped areas must pay more attention to environmental protection,education and research.Non-teaching hospitals need to strengthen quality of care,accomplishment of governmental mandatory missions and environmental protection.
