OBJECTIVE:To discuss the general rules and characteristics of adverse drug reactions(ADRs)of lamivudine.METHODS:43national case reports of ADRs of lamivudine between1999and2005were classified and analyzed statistically.RESULTS:The affected patients ranged in age from8years to45years,with more males than females.There were no rules in the onset time of ADRs.The ADRS were mainly characterized by nervous system responses and aggravation of hepatitis in clinic.CONCLUSION:Great importance should be attached to ADRs of lamivudine to ensure the safety of drug use in clinic.

OBJECTIVE:To discuss the manifestation characteristics of mezlocillin injection-induced ADR.METHODS:Mezlocillin injection-induced ADR cases reported in domestic pharmaceutical journals between 1999 and July.2006 were retrieved from China Hospital Digital Library(CHDL) and analyzed statistically.RESULTS:The clinical manifestation of ADR induced by mezlocillin was characterized by allergic reactions or even anaphylactic shock.The major ADR types were first-using immediate type and the speedy outbreak type.CONCLUSION:Great importance should be attached to allergic reactions induced by mezlocillin injection.

Semaphorin 4D (SEMA4D), also known as CD100, is a protein that belongs to class IV semaphorin. Its physiologic role in the nervous system has been extensively explored. However, the roles of SEMA4D have extended beyond the traditionally studied territories. Collective data proved that SEMA4D has an important role in the regulation of immune system, angiogenesis, and tumorigenesis, among others. Specifically, SEMA4D enhanced the angiogenesis in malignant diseases. This review summarized the latest progression in the research on SEMA4D, including the structure, receptors, mechanism, and biological functions in tumor angiogenesis and progression.

Plasma D-dimer is one of the degradation products of the cross-linked fibrin hydrolyzed by fibrinolysin and is also a unique metabolite of secondary fibrolysis.The change of its content is a reliable indicator for the identification of the hypercoagulabale state in vivo and primary and secondary fibrinolysis,as well as for the observation of the effectiveness of thrombolytic therapy.In recent years,D-dimer determination has gained new clinical application.

Objective To explore the influence of no drainage on pelvic lymphocyst following laparoscopic radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy . Methods A total of 105 patients with cervical cancer undergoing laparoscopic radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy in this hospital from January 2012 to February 2016 were divided into either non-drainage group (50 cases) or drainage group (55 cases) according to whether the pelvic drainage tube was placed after surgery .Comparative analyses on the incidence of postoperative complications such as pelvic lymphocyst were made between the two groups . Results No significant difference in lymphocyst rate was found between the two groups [27.3%(15/55) vs.24.0%(12/50), χ2 =0.147, P=0.702].The incidence of pelvic infection was lower in the non-drainage group (2.0%, 1/50) than that in the drainage group (14.5%, 8/55), but the difference was not statistically significant (χ2 =3.781, P=0.052).Other postoperative complications including urinary retention , urinary fistula, and deep venous thrombosis of lower limb had no statistical differences between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Drainage after radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy for cervical cancer does not make a difference to the incidence of lymphocyst .Non-drainaging doesn ’ t increase the risk of infection .

Objective To explore the efficacy of sequential or combined amphotericin B (AmB) and fluconazole (FCZ) therapy on a 5 flucytosine based regimen in non-acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related cryptococcal meningitis.Methods A tatal of 117 cases of non-AIDS-related cryptococcal meningitis treated with 5-flurocytosine-based regimens were retrospectively divided into five groups:AmBgroup (n=38),FCZ group (n=25),FCZ and AmB sequential group (n=18),AmB and FCZ sequential group (n=15),AmB and FCZ combination group (n=21).The number in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of the five groups were compared.Statistical analyses included t test,oneway analysis of variance,K-independent samples test and chi-square test.Results Intracranial pressure of AmB group,FCZ group,FCZ and AmB sequential group,AmB and FCZ sequential group,AmBandFCZ combination group were (208.6±75.1),(191.5±94.5),(185.0±76.3),(201.9±69.7) and (223.1±89.3) mm H2O (1 mm H2O=0.0098 kPa),respectively,and the differences were not statistically significant (F=0.611,P =0.656).Median cryptococcus counts in CSF of the five groups were 0,10,0,3 and 0/mL,respectively,with no statistical significance (x2 =7.638,P-0.090).CSF protein levels of the five groups were 0.55,0.69,0.67,0.53 and 0.96 g/L,respectively,with no significant differences among groups (F=7.063,P=0.133).The cure rates of the five groups were 55.3％ (21/38),32.0％ (8/25),9/18,6/15 and 47.6％ (10/21),respectively;progression rates or mortality of the five groups were 28.9％ (11/38),44.4％ (11/25),5/18,4/15and 23.8％ (5/21),respectively; and the differences among cure rates (x2 =3.638,P=0.457) and progression rates or mortality (x2-2.785,P =0.604) were not statistically significant.Conclusion FCZ or AmB alone,sequential or combined therapy were all effective in the treatment of cryptococcal meningitis.

Objective To evaluate the effect of internal iliac artery or abdominal aorta blockade on the pressure of internal iliac artery net in order to provide theoretical basis for reasonable option of arterial blockade in management of arterial bleeding of pelvic fractures.Methods Five goats were included in the study.The measurement of the pressure of internal iliac artery net was made in the following steps:( 1 ) measurement of the pressure of normal internal iliac artery,(2) measurenent of the pressure following blockade of unilateral internal iliac artery,(3) measurement of the pressure following blockade of bilateral internal iliac arteries,(4) measurement of the pressure following blockade of abdominal aorta and bilateral internal iliac arteries simultaneously,(5) measurement of the pressure following blockade of abdominal aorta only.Results The normal internal iliac artery pressure was ( 57.84 ± 13.46 ) mm Hg.The pressures following the blockade of unilateral internal iliac artery,bilateral internal iliac arteries,abdominal aorta and bilateral internal iliac arteries sinultaneously,and abdominal aorta only were (38.40±17.39) mm Hg,(29.70 ± 12.16) mmHg,(32.80 ± 17.02) mm Hg and (29.20 ± 18.52) mm Hg,respectively.All the blocking designs had obvious effect on the pressure of normal internal iliac artery ( P ＜ 0.05 ),while the various blockade modes themselves showed no statistical differences (P ＞ 0.05). Conclusion The upper described four modes of blockade are similar in decreasing the pressure of the internal iliac artery net.Thereby,only one of them is enough in management of artery hemorrhage following pelvic fractures.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of the docetaxel combined with nedaplatin or cisplatin in the treatment of patients with advanced head and neck carcinoma.Methods 58 patients with advanced head and neck carcinoma were enrolled into the study.These patients were divided into nedaplatin group (27 patients:docetaxel 75mg/m2 on day 1 and nedaplatin 80mg/m2 on day 1 of the 21-day cycle) and cisplantin group( 31 patients:docetaxel 75mg/m2 on day 1 and cisplatin 25mg/m2 on day 1-3 day of 21-day cycle).Each patient should complete two cycle.Results The response rate in nedaplatin group was 59.2％ and in cisplantin group was 54.8％,the difference was statistically significant between the two groups( P ＞ 0.05 ).The rate of white blood cell and plate let reduction in nedaplatin group was 55.5％,40.7％,respectively,and those in cisplantin group was 51.6％,35.4％,respectively,the difference was statistically significant between the two groups ( call P ＜ 0.05 ).The rate of vomit in nedaplatin group was 29.6％,which was lower than that of cisplantin group (64.5％) ( x2 =4.02,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion In the treatment of advanced head and neck carcinoma,the combination of docetaxel and nedaplatin had the same efficacy as the combination of docetaxel and cisplatin,and they appeared to be more-tolerated.
