1.Clinical comparison of cerivastatin with simvastatin for aged hyperlipidemia
Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2001;(4):276-277
OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy and safety of Lipobay (cerivastatin) and Jingbishuxin (simvastatin) on lipid profiles.METHODS 40 patients with hypercholesterolemia were randomizedly divided into Lipobay group (0.3 mg,QN) and Jingbishuxin group (domestic simvastatin tablet) (20 mg,QN)for 4 weeks.Total cholesterol (TC),low density Lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),triglyceride (TG) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),blood sugar,hepatic and renal function,blood and urine regular test were measured before and after the treatment.RESULTS After 4 weeks of treatment,TC,LDL-C and TG were reduced by 29.02%,29.95%,17.21% in Lipobay the group and 22.48%,28.68%,14.74% in Jingbishuxin group,respectively.Compared the measurements after treatment with that before treatment,there were significant differences in both groups,but there was no significant difference between them.No serious adverse effect was found.CONCLUSION Lipobay had a same efficacy and safety on lipoprotein profiles as that of Jingbishuxin in elderly.It has a good tolerance with smaller dose.
2.Investigation and analysis of data of abdominal injuries in Deyang after the Wenchuan earthquake
Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2008;7(4):258-259
A magnitude of 8.0 earthquake struck on Wenchuan on May 12, 2008. Until July 1, 1393 injured persons had been admitted to Deyang People's Hospital. Of all injured persons, 32 were diagnosed with abdominal injury, including 18 men and 14 women. All the abdominal injuries were closed injury, and multiple abdominal viscera were involved in the abdominal injuries after the earthquake. Careful examination is crucial in preventing missed diagnosis. The incidences of the liver and spleen injuries were significantly higher than that of the intestine, and the reason may be that the liver and spleen are the parenchymal viscera. Diagnostic abdominocentesis can timely diagnose the parenchymal viscera with severe blood loss. Diagnostic peritoneal lavage combined with selective CT scan can timely diagnose the abdominal injuries with comparatively low cost.

Giving full play to the function of the network and making it serve graduates for employment better has already been realized by all universities and colleges,but to make "five in one " of the employment network come true still needs the universities to increase input,strengthen management,and make a good construction of the campus employment network.

Objective To reconstruct the three-dimensional structure of human brachial plexus including its outer contour and delicate pathways of nerve fascicles inside, and to explore an useful and practical method for three-dimensional reconstruction of brachial plexus. Methods Taking woman hair as the localizing marks, two left-side brachial plexus from healthy adult cadaver were serially horizontally sliced with each section 0.2 mm in thickness(from the outlet of nerve root canal to the origin of median nerve, about 20 cm in length on an average), each slice was stained by AchE histochemical method. Each section of the two-dimensional image was taken by high-resolution digital camera, and the three-dimensional microstructure of brachial plexus was reconstructed and computer-assisted. Results The three-dimensional structure of brachial plexus reappeared successfully, including its outer contour and its delicate pathways of nerve bundles inside, the topographic anatomy of every nerve fascicle and its relationship in arbitrary sections as well as the patterns of branching, intersection and recombination of nerve bundles in the whole length. It could also display the outer contour of brachial plexus and the delicate pathways of nerve bundles inside either separately or totally. The reconstructed microstructure of the brachial plexus was smooth, natural and realistic, it could be rotated, zoomed and divided in any direction. The fascicular number of C7 root was more than C6 or C8, while C5 and T1 were the least. Conclusion The three-dimensional structure of brachial plexus inside is very complicated. The nerve bundles crisscross and recombine with each another. It combines a fine and delicate nerve network. Using the advanced localizing method, a good result is obtained. This is a practical method for three-dimensional reconstruction of the microstructure of brachial plexus.

AIM: To explore the correlation between drug concentration of etoposide (VP16) and CYP3A activity (CA) in leukemia. METHODS: The urinary 6?-hydroxycortisol/hydrocortisone ratio is a useful marker for CA. Concentration of VP16 in plasma and CA was determined by HPLC in 20 leucemia patients, and the correlation analysis was performed using the SPSS software. RESULTS: Correlation analysis between drug concentration of VP16 and CA in leukemia was poor correlated (r = 0.725), but concentration of VP16 and lgCA showed a good correlated (r =0.969). CONCLUSION: It is feasible to adjust the therapeutic regimen of VP16 by determining CA.

AIM:To observe the clinical effects of Huangkui Capsule (Abelmoschus manihot (Linn)Medic.)on the treatment of IgA nephropathy of damp-heat syndrome.METHODS: Sixty-four patients were assigned randomly into two groups: treatment group in which 32 cases were treated with Huangkui Capsule,and control group,in which 32 cases were treated with fosinopril.The therapeutic course for both groups was 12 weeks.The indexes of efficacy ,including damp-heat syndrome scores,24 h urinary protein,serum creatinine,urea nitrogen and the indexes of safety,including liver function,electrolyte and occurrence of adverse events were observed.RESULTS :There was no significant statistical difference between the two groups in aspects of baseline clinical figures,after 12 weeks of treatment,the content of 24h urinary protein significantly decreased by (0.49±0.78 )g/24 h and (0.4±0.76 ) g/24 h respectively in the two groups,showing significant difference in comparing with baseline,but insignificant difference between the two groups ( P > 0.05 ),the scores of damp-heat syndrome in the two groups decreased by (0.88±1.43 ) scores and (1.94±1.63 ) scores respectively with significant difference as compared with baseline (P <0.05 ),and in comparison between groups(P <0.05 ).The total effective rate of 24 h urinary protein was 53.1% in the treatment group and 65.6% in the control group (P > 0.05 ),The total effective rate of dampheat syndrome scores was 84.4% in the treatment group and 50% in the control group ( P > 0.05 ).No significant change in levels of serum creatinine,urea nitrogen in the two groups was found (P >0.05 ).No severe adverse event occurred during the treatment,and the occurrence in the two groups was similar.CONCLUSION: Huangkui Capsule can effectively decrease the proteinuria just like fosinopril and improve clinical syndrome of patients of IgA nephropathy with damp-heat syndrome type,and shows no serious adverse reaction.

Objective:To summarize the ultrasound features of renal arteriovenous fistula(RAVF)under various ultrasound imaging modes,so as to avoid missed diagnosis of RAVF on initial ultrasound examination.Methods:The clinical data of 6 patients with RAVF,including the ultrasound evidence,the timing of ultrasound diagnosis,the modes of ultrasound diagnosis, and the agreement between ultrasound diagnosis and selective renal arterial angiography,were retrospectively analyzed.Results: 2D ultrasound had 1 case of correct diagnosis,1 case of misdiagnosis and 4 cases of missed diagnosis.Color Doppler and spectral Doppler both had all the 6 cases correctly diagnosed.Ultrasound angiography in 3 cases demonstrated that the contrast agent reached the renal veins earlier than reached the renal parenchyma;large fistula lumen was associated with ischemia of downstream areas.3D ultrasound vividly reflected the structure of fistula lumen volume,and provided us with the profiles of blood signal in fistula at different planes and angles,improving our knowledge of blood flow on the fistula.Conclusion: Ultrasound is the first line screening method for RAVF.Color Doppler plays a decisive role in the diagnosis of RAVF and pulsed spectral Doppler plays a synergetic role and contributes to differential diagnosis.Contrast-enhanced ultrasound may help to discover the abnormality of venous circulation and the ischemic parenehyma area due to shunting.2D ultrasound has a poor diagnostic value and is liable to lead to misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.
