Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2021;28(3):366-369
Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of linezolid combined with levofloxacin in the intensive treatment of tuberculous meningitis.Methods:Seventy-six patients with tuberculous meningitis who underwent intensive treatment from May 2015 to April 2018 in the Fourth People's Hospital of Taiyuan were included in this study. They were assigned to a control group ( n = 38) and an observation group ( n = 38) according to treatment methods. The control group was given conventional treatment (isoniazid + rifampicin + pyrazinamide + ethambutol). The observation group was given treatment with linezolid combined with levofloxacin based on conventional treatment. All patients were treated for 8 successive weeks. Clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups. Results:Total effective rate and the incidence of complications were 92.11% (35/38) and 5.26% (2/38) respectively in the observation group, and they were 68.42% (26/38) and 23.68% (9/38) respectively in the control group. There were significant differences in total effective rate and the incidence of complications between the two groups ( χ2 = 6.727 and 5.028, both P < 0.05). After treatment, white blood cell count, blood glucose level, and protein level were (30.21 ± 4.16) × 10 6/L, (3.65 ± 0.32) mmol/L and (0.79 ± 0.05) g/L, respectively in the observation group, while they were (54.28 ± 6.42) × 10 6/L, (2.18 ± 0.21) mmol/L, (0.98 ± 0.21) g/L, respectively in the control group. There were significant differences in white blood cell count, blood glucose level and protein level between the two groups ( t = 19.396, 23.675, 4.538, all P < 0.05). There was significant difference in the score of quality of life between the control and observation groups [(187.59 ± 4.11) points vs. (216.94 ± 3.90) points, t = 31.933, P < 0.05]. Conclusion:Linezolid combined with levofloxacin based on conventional treatment exhibits better clinical efficacy with high safety in the intensive treatment of tuberculous meningitis than conventional treatment.

Journal of Clinical Pediatrics 2015;(9):792-796
ObjectivesTo study the current status of child neglect and its inlfuencing factors in children aged 3-6 years in rural Henan.MethodsScales and evaluation methods in the Chinese rural child aged 3-6 years neglected eval-uation model were applied in this study. The neglect rate and the neglect degree were used to describe the neglect status of rural children aged 3-6 years in Henan. The inlfuencing factors for child neglect were also analyzed. ResultsThe total neglect rate in 450 enrolled children was 37.1% (167/450). The total neglect degree was 51.9±6.5. The boys had signiifcant-ly higher neglect rate than girls (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in neglect degree between boys and girls (P>0.05). There were significant differences in neglect rate and neglect degree among the different age groups (P<0.05), the higher neglect rate and higher neglect degree over age. The neglect rate and neglect degree in nuclear families and fam-ilies with three generations were lower than those in single-parent families and remarried families (P<0.05). The neglect rate and neglect degree in non-only children were higher than those in only children (P<0.05). The left-behind children had signiifcantly higher neglect rate and neglect degree than children living with parents (P<0.05). Based on multivariate logis-tic regression analysis, the risk factors of child neglect were single-parent families (OR = 4.78, 95%CI : 2.10-10.87) and remarried families (OR=4.53, 95%CI : 1.99-10.01). The protective factors of child neglect were parents working on sci-ence (OR = 0.20, 95%CI : 0.10-0.67) and living with parents (OR = 0.03, 95%CI : 0.00-0.54).ConclusionsThe neglect status is serious in Henan rural children, particularly in left-behind children.

Objective To assess the predicting value of homocysteine ( HCY), low density lipoprotein cholesterin (LDL-C) and carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) for women with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods To choose 115 patients with CAD and 102 patients of non-CAD;Homocysteine, LDL-C and IMT were assayed respectively;comparison and correlation analysis were performed based on genders. Results The rates for hyperhomocysteinemia and High Lipoproteinaemia in female CAD patients are 59. 6% and 75.0%,respectively,while they are 69. 9% and 78.6% for male CAD patients,which are both remarkably higher than 23.0% ,26.7%, 22. 2% and 23.6% in non-CAD patients ( Ps < 0. 05 ). ROC curve shows that the best diagnostic boundary point is 0.953 mm for female IMT and 1. 021 mm for male IMT. At the boundary point,the sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value are 83.7% ,91.4% ,95.7% and 63. 8% in female, much higher than 62.9%, 65.3%, 76.2% and 53.3% in male. Conclusion hyperhomocysteinemia, high lipoproteinaemia are the important risk factors for women with coronary artery disease;IMT might be used as the predictor of CAD, which have more advantages for female than for male patients.
