Aim to explore the adverse drug reactions (ADR) characteristic and calculate the ADR incidence of Dengzhan Xixin injection (DZXX). A multicenter, large sample, and prospective cohort study was conducted from August 2012 to December 2014. A total of 31 724 patients using DZXX were observed. A total of 31 724 patients with 15 ADR cases among 31 724 patients, accounting for 0.06% , were reported. There were 8 male patients ADRs and 7 female patients with ADRs. ADRs included skin rashes, itching, headache, red face, abdominal pain, etc. 1 case with rhubarb radix scutellariae allergies. These ADRs happened from 5 min to within 0.5 h after DZXX were used to treat patients. ADR patients discontinued treatment, of which 2 patients used promethazine for recovery and improvement. There were 2 cases with different DZXX concentration, out of the normal range. DZXX injection could cause some ADRs. Users must not ignore these and be careful of its related side effects. This study was a cohort with large sample, which should produce strong evidence for clinical practice. However, there was still weak evidence to conclude that it was a safe Chinese medicine injection in clinical practice.

Obiective To explore the dynamics of tidal breathing pulmonary function in infants with recurrent wheeze and its clinical signiifcance. Methods Eighty (80) infants with recurrent wheeze from October 2013 to February 2014 were enrolled and divided into asthma predictive index positive (n=25) and asthma predictive negative (n=55) groups, and another 20 healthy children were enrolled as control group. Tidal breath pulmonary function at the time of admission (acute phase), leaving hospital (remission phase), and a week after discharge (admission phase) were tested, the ratio of time taken to reach peak expiratory lfow to total expiratory time(TPTEF/TE)and ratio of peak expiratory volume to total expiratory volume(VPEF/VE) between groups were compared. Results From acute phase and remission phase to admission phase, TPTEF/TE, VPEF/VE were elevated in positive group and negative group showing signiifcant statistical difference between phases (P=0.000). In acute phase, TPTEF/TE, VPEF/VE showed no statistical difference (P>0.05) between positive group and negative group, when compared with control group, TPTEF/TE, VPEF/VE were signiifcantly lower in positive and negative groups than that in control group (P<0.05). In remission phase, TPTEF/TE, VPEF/VE in negative group were higher than that in positive group, but significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05). In admission phase, TPTEF/TE and VPEF/VE in negative group and control group showed no statistical difference (P>0.05), but significantly higher than that in positive group (P<0.05). Conclusions Lung function impairment duration was longer in asthma predictive index positive children than in asthma predictive index negative children. The tidal breathing pulmonary function test can provide objective clinical indicators for infants with recurrent wheeze to predict asthma.
