OBJECTIVE:To make a systematic review on the efficacy and safety of canagliflozin in the treatment of type 2 dia-betes,and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from Cochrane Library,PubMed,EM-Base,CBM and Wanfang database,randomized controlled trials (RCT) of canagliflozin (test group) versus placebo (control group)in the treatment of type 2 diabetes were collected,and Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.2 statistical soft-ware after extracting data and evaluating quality. RESULTS:A total of 7 RCTs were included,involving 2 188 patients. The results of Meta analysis indicated that glycosylated hemoglobin levels [WMD=-0.82,95%CI(-0.99,-0.65),P<0.001],the proportion of HbA1c<7%[RR=2.51,95%CI(1.98,3.19),P<0.001],fasting plasma glucose levels [WMD=-32.91,95%CI(-39.65,-26.17), P<0.001] in test group were significantly better than those of control group,the incidence of genital tract infections was significant-ly higher than control group [RR=3.76,95%CI(2.23,6.35),P<0.001];however,compared with control group,there was no sig-nificant difference in the incidence of hypoglycemia [RR=1.13,95%CI(0.40,3.20),P=0.81] and urinary tract infections[RR=1.19,95%CI(0.82,1.73),P=0.36]. CONCLUSIONS:Canagliflozin is safe and effective in the treatment of type 2 diabetes,and it needs to be noticed with genital tract infections during the clinical use. Due to the limitation of methodology,large-scale and poly-centric RCT are required for further validation of the conclusions.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate drug utilization of inpatients in neurology department of our hospital.METHODS:Category of drugs,consumption amount,consumption sum and administration time for each person of 853 cases in neurology department of our hospital in 2008 were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS:Of total 853 inpatients,patients with stroke accounted for 82.8%.The first 3 drugs in the list of consumption amount were Nao'an capsule,folium ginkgo tablet and Shuxuetong injection.The first 3 drugs in the list of consumption sum were Shuxuetong injection,Monosialoganglioside injection and Cobamamide for injection.Aspirin tablet,Nao'an capsule and Cobamamide for injection took up the first 3 places in the list of DDDs.CONCLUSION:Inpatients in neurology department mainly suffer from cerebrovascular disease and are treated with TCM for activating blood and eliminating stasis and nervous system agents,They are also treated various complications such as infection,constipation,hypertension,diabetes and so on.Drug use in the clinic is rational.

BACKGROUND:Tissue engineering is an interdisciplinary field and its experimental safety covers a wide scope along with the increase in accidents of tissue engineering laboratories, the safety management in tissue engineering laboratories in universities has become an important public health problem. OBJECTIVE:To enhance the safety management strategies for tissue engineering laboratories in chinese universities and improve the safety management system. METHODS:PubMed, Elseveir, WanFang and CNKI databases were retrieved for the literatures concerning the biosafety, safety management of hazardous chemicals, waste, medical information, instrument operation and human body mechanics in tissue engineering laboratories, and then the status of laboratory management was analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The status of safety management in tissue engineering laboratories in China is analyzed based on the technique characters and regulations on safety management. Management strategies for laboratory safety have been proposed according to the differences in relevant laboratory safety management between China and the US, such as regular training on laboratory safety, improving the safety consciousness of experimental staff, constructing the strict system access to laboratory, improving safety facilities, standardizing the experimental safety manual and appointing specialized safety management committee. Comprehensive and systematical regulations on laboratory safety management will ensure the smooth running of tissue engineering laboratories in universities, thus accelerating the development of tissue engineering.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between the plasma concentration of nitric oxide (NO) and prognosis of the hemorrhagic shock. Method:The blood levels of NO and Lactate (LA) were measured with fluorophotometry and colorimetry in 30 hemorrhagic shock patients,and another 30 patients for elective surgery served as a control. Result :Concentration of NO was significantly lower and that of LA was significantly higher in hemorrhagic shock group than that of control group. NO level had a negative correlation with LA level and injury index. NO level in the patients complicated by sepsis were still lower than the control. Conclusion:Decrease of NO level may result in disturbance of microcirculation and increase of LA. So nitroglycerin should be used as early as possible in the hemorrhagic shock patients.

To investigate the inhibiting effects of ketamine on arterial plasma TNF-? concentration and lung injury in septic shock rat. Method: 40 Wister rats were divided into five groups. 15mg?kg~(-1) endotoxin (LPS) was intravenously injected alone (group Ⅰ)or ip ketamine 50,100 and 200mg?kg~(-1) before LPS, then ketamine was infused at 10mg?kg~(-1)?min~(-1) (Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳgroup). TNF-? was assessed with ELISA, and at the same time the arterial blood oxygen tension and lung water content were measured. Result: In contrast to normal control level, arterial plasma TNF-? levels and lung water content increased and arterial oxygen tension decreased after LPS in group Ⅰ, but in the rats of giving ketamine, plasma TNF-? level decreased more than that in the rats of giving LPS alone (group Ⅰ), change of arterial blood oxygen tension and lung water content in former groups were better than that of later, in dosage-dependent way. Conclusion: Ketamine can dose-relatedly decrease TNF-? concentration and lung injury degree induced by endotoxin.

Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of heat stress response (HSR) on i of pulmonary arterial endothelium cells (PAEC)incubated with TNF-?. We tried to illustrate the mechanism of injury to PAEC caused by TNF-? and the effects of HSR.Methods The study consisted of four groups.In group Ⅰ confluent monolayer of calf PAEC were directly incubated with TNF-? at final concentrations of 500, 1 000 and 2 000 u/ml for 24 h.In group Ⅱ PAEC were first bathed in 42℃ water for 20 min and then allowed to recover for 24 h.In turn they were incubated with TNF-? at the same concentrations.In group Ⅲ PAEC were not heated and incubated with TNF-?.In group Ⅳ PAEC were heated but not incubated with TNF-?.i of PAEC was assayed by fluorospectrophotometry and i of four groups were compared.The change in i before and after incubation of PAEC with TNF-?(?i) was calculated.Results (1) i was considerably higher in group Ⅰ than that in group Ⅲ at different concentrations in dose-dependent way.(2) Although i was higher in group Ⅳ than that in group Ⅲ, HSR could inhibit the further increase in i of PAEC incubated with TNF-?.Conclusions HSR may decrease the i in PAEC incubated with TNF-?.It indicates that HSR can prevent PAEC from calcium overload and provide protection on PAEC against injuries.
