OBJECTIVE:To study the adverse drug reactions induced by?-lactam antibiotics and to promote rational use of drugs in clinics.METHODS:442ADR cases induced by?-lactam antibiotics collected in our hospital during2001～2005were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS:Among the total961ADR cases collected in5years,46%were induced by?-lactam antibiotics.The most common displays of ADR were the lesion of skin and the appendants,followed by the lesion of cardiovas-cular system and digestive system etc.CONCLUSION:It is advisable to promote rational use of?-lactam antibiotics and strengthen ADR monitoring so as to decrease or avoid the occurrence of ADR.

Objective To explore the potential associations of HLA-DQA1 and DQB1 alleles with systemic scleroderma (SSc) in Zhuang and Han nationalities in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Methods Genomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of SSc patients of Zhuang (n=50) and Han (n=50) nationality,normal controls of Zhuang (n=100) and Han (n=100) nationality in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.PCR with sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) was used to detect HLA-DQA1 and -DQB1 alleles in these subjects. Results There was a significant increase in the frequency of HLA-DQA1*0401, -DQBl*0501 and -DQB1*0601 alleles in the patients of Zhuang nationalty(RR=4.056,χ2=15.407,PC=0.001;RR=4.472,χ2=10.653,Pc=0.004;RR=3.473,χ2=10.06,Pc=0.008)compared with normal controls of Zhuang nationality,and in the frequency of HLA-DQA1*0401,DQA1*0601 and DQB1*0601 alhles in patients of Han nationality (RR=9.333,χ2=8.371,Pc=0.036;RR=8.071,χ2=20.130,Pc=0.000;RR=3.764,χ2=10.755,Pc=0.004)compared with normal control of Han nationality.However,the frequency of HLA-DQA1*0201 allele was statistically lower in the patients of Zhuang and Han nationality than in the controls of corresponding nafionality (χ2=13.583,Pc=0.002;χ2=12.209,Pc=0.004).Conclusions HLA-DQA1*0401 and-DQB1*0601may be susceptible genes for SSc in Zhuang and Han nationalities,HLA-DQB1*0501 for Sse in Zhuang nationality,and HLA-DQAl*060l for SSc in Han nationality in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

Hypercholesterolemia and coronary heart disease caused by it have become the most important factors threatening human health. The lipid metabolism-related studies are increasingly receiving attention. Recent studies have demonstrated that proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), a family member of precursor protein-converting enzyme, plays an important role in the regulation of lipid metabolism. The expression and mutation of PCSK9 gene are closely correlated with the content of low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR). The excessive expression of PCSK9 promotes the degradation of LDLR, thereby increasing the levels of plasma LDL; whereas the inhibition of PCSK9 gene expression causes the decreased levels of plasma LDL. Therefore, it is promising to develop novel medications for treating hypercholesterolemia, controlling hyperlipermia and preventing coronary heart disease by studying the mechanism of PCSK9.

Objective To explore the clinical and MDCT features of pediatric irreducible intussusception. Methods 66 patients were divided into irreducible intussusception group (19 cases) and reducible intussusception group (47 cases). Age clinical courses, length of intussusception body (L), neck max diameter (D1), head max diameter (D2) andthe ratio (D2/D1) and MDCT imaging data were compared and analyzed. Results (1) The course time, L and D2/D1 values of irreducible intussusception group were significantly higher than those of reducible group, the D1 was lower than that ofreducible group, and the difference is statistically significant (P<0.05). Clinical course,L and D2/D1 value AUC values were more than 0.7, the threshold values were 33.0 h, 7.5 cm and 1.33. (2) The occurrence rate of non-ileum-colon intussusception, Meckel's diverticulum, appendicitis and intestinal necrotic for irreducible intussusception were 36.8%, 21.1%, 21.1%, 15.8%and 10.5%respectively. Conclusion Whenthe time of course>33.0 mo, D2/D1>1.33 and L>7.5 cm, the irreducible intussusceptioncould be considered, and Meckel??s diverticulum, intestinal necrosis, appendicitis and intestinal obstruction should be judged further.

Objective:To investigate the role of the transient receptor potential melastatin subfamily member 7 (TRPM7) ion channel in the proliferation and migration of oral squamous cancer cells OC2.Methods:The expression of TRPM7 in OC2 cells was examined by western blotting,RT-PCR and indirect immunofluorescence assay.The influence of TRPM7 on cell proliferation and migration under the inhibition of TRPM7 ion channel with 2-APB or siRNA TRPM7 in OC2 cells was examined by MTT and Transwell respectively.The influence of PI3K/AKT signal pathway on the expression of TRPM7 in OC2 cells was tested by Western blotting.The change of positive ion current when the OC2 cells were treated with TRPM7 inhibitor and activator was explored with patch clamp technique.Results:TRPM7 overexpression in OC2 cells mainly in the cytoplasm was observed,siRNA TRPM7 downregulated the expression of TRPM7.Inhibition of TRPM7 (2-APB or siRNA TRPM7) inhibited the growth and proliferation of OC2 cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner.Blockage of TRPM7 ion channel inhibited the migration capacity of OC2 cells.Inhibition of TRPM7 downregulated the expression of phosphorylated AKT and phosphorylated ERK.Patch clamp assay showed the activation of TRPM7-like current in OC2 cells.2-APB could weaken this current while Bradykinin could enhance the current.Conclusion:TRPM7 may regulate the proliferation and migration of oral cancer cells by the regulation of PI3K/AKT and MAPK/ERK signal pathways and cell positive current.

The development of renal transplantation from living relative donors relives the shortage of transplanted organs,and benefits patients with end-stage renal diseases.However,when seen from the aspect of donors,implementing a non-therapeutic invasive surgical treatment on a healthy person still violates the absolute sound principle of medical ethics.To reduce the harm to the minimum,a comprehensive assessment should be conducted before the transplantation,and long-term follow-up observations after transplantation should also be strengthened.

Many clinical studies have demonstrated that raised morning blood pressure surge is closely related to path‐ogenesis and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases ,but there is still no unified understanding for its prevention until now ,and raised morning blood pressure surge phenomenon is not effectively controlled in most patients .The pres‐ent article made a brief review on raised morning blood pressure surge .
