1.Adverse effects, drug interactions, and safety of direct-acting antiviral agents in treatment of hepatitis C
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2017;33(6):1067-1074
In recent years,direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs) have achieved great success in the treatment of hepatitis C and have replaced interferon/ribavirin.However,since DAAs were launched not long ago,there lacks sufficient knowledge of their toxic and side effects,interactions with other drugs,and safety in patients complicated by other serious chronic diseases.The results of many large-scale clinical trials show that DAAs have good safety in different populations and serious toxic and side effects are rare,but drug interactions need to be taken seriously.The addition of ribavirin in DAA regimen or prolongation of DAA treatment does not increase patients' benefits and may cause more adverse events.Moreover,at the same time of DAA treatment,liver injury caused by HCV cannot be neglected,and continuous treatment should be given.

In the present study, A fluorescent imaging-based high-throughput screening method was developed for identifying anti-migratory compounds with 96-well Transwell plates. The correlation, precision and stability of this method were examined and the incubation time of dye Hoechst 33342 in addition to migration time was optimized. In addition, The inhibitory activity of anti-cancer drug paclitaxel on tumor cell migration was assayed and an IC50 value of 0.717 micromol x L(-1) was obtained. Using this method, 24 components from Rhizoma Alismatis were screened and one component with anti-migration activity was found. These results show that the new proposed method with good precision, stability and linear range has the potential to assay the inhibitory activity of anticancer compounds.

0.05),there were more apoptosis-starting cells found in normal skin(1738.33?348.89/mm2)than in keloid(891.67?395.00/mm2)(t=-5.565,P=0.000).The number of positive stained fibroblast cells in dermis significantly increased in keloid group(911.67?323.61/mm2),compared with that in normal skin group(220.00?80.00/mm2)(t=7.188,P=0.000).This result that the protein expression level of Bid was higher in keloid(0.46?0.08)than that in normal skin tissue(0.02?0.01)(t=18.905,P=0.000)was proven by western blotting test.Conclusions The number of apoptosis-starting cells in epidermis of normal skin is more than that in keloid.Bid protein in dermis of keloid is over expressed.

The pharmacokinetics of ketamine were studied in 8 preschool children,aged 3.5~6 years. The ketamine was administrated by I. V. infusion at a dose of 3mg?kg~(-1) in one hour constantly. The plasma concentrations of ketamine were measured by high performance liquid chromatography. The disposition of intravenous infusion with ketamine could be described by two-compartment open model, and the variables of pharmacokinetics of ketamine were as follows: T_(1/2?)=0.15?0.04 hours,T_(1/2?)=2.84?0.44 hours,Cl=0.34?0.06L?kg~(-1)?h~(-1), AUC=9.21?1.00mg/L?h, and V_d=0.66?0.29 L?kg~(-1). This suggests that intravenous infusion of ketamine at 3mg?kg~(-1)?h~(-1) is safe for the maintenance of general anesthesia in preschool children, attention must he paid to the children anesthetized with long period of ketamine infusion because recovery may be delayed due to the prolonged elimination half-life.

Objective: To determine the influence of ?-hydroxybutyric sodium (7-OH)on the pharmacokinetics of ketamine infusion in preschool children. Method: Sixteen patients were randomly assigned to group Ⅱ (Ketamine) and group Ⅱ (Ketamine plus ?-OH). After trachea intubation,0.05% ketamine was infused in both groups at 3mg?kg~(-1)?h~(-1) and ?-OH 125mg?kg~(-1) only in group Ⅱ. The plasma concentration of ketamine was measured using high performance liquid chromatography. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using 3P_(87) software composed by Chinese Pharmacologic Society. Result: In both groups,pharmaeokinetics could be descrided as two-compartment open model. The T_(1/2)? and the Cl differ between group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ (P

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum plasma brain natriuretic peptide ( BNP ) levels and myocardial injury in neoborns after asphyxia. Methods Neoborns who were admitted to Department of neonatology, Zhongnan Hospital, Wuhan University from December 2012 to December 2013 within 3 days after birth were considered. According to the number organized in chronological order every other case, newborns with neonatal asphyxia were assigned to observation group. The observation group were further divided into myocardial injury subgroup and non-cardiac injury subgroup according to the diagnostic criteria of myocardial injury. Newborns without neonatal asphyxia or neonatal cardiovascular diseases were assigned to control group. Exclusion criteria for control group were electrolyte disturbance, liver and kidney dysfunction. Blood sample was drawn from patients within 2 hours of admission to hospital and again on day 14. Serum BNP , creatine kinase isoenzyme ( CK-MB) , serum sodium and calcium were detected for further analysis. Results In 107 cases with neonatal asphyxia, 77 infants who had complete clinical records were selected as observation group, of which 36 met the diagnostic criteria of myocardial injury and assigned to myocardial injury subgroup. Non-cardiac injury subgroup consisted of the rest 41 cases in observation group. Twenty-two cases were enrolled to control group. Within 2 hours after admission, the serum BNP level of myocardial injury subgroup were significantly higher than those of the non-cardiac injury subgroup and the control group ( 2. 35 ± 0. 44 , 2. 12±0. 64, 1. 88±0. 27, log transformed, respectively, P<0. 05). The BNP level of non-cardiac injury subgroup were also significantly higher than those of the control group. Serum BNP and CK-MB levels of observation group were positively correlated (r=0. 212,P=0. 030). After treatment, serum BNP level of myocardial injury subgroup at 14 days after admission decreased significantly, compared to the level at 2 hours within admission (P<0. 05). When the cutoff value for infants with myocardial injury was 108. 05 pg/mL, the area under the ROC curve was 0. 753, with a sensitivity of 75. 0% and a specificity of 64. 5%, positive predictive value was 56. 4% and negative predictive value was 72. 3%. Conclusions Serum BNP level can reflect myocardial injury in neonates with asphyxia and can guide clinical treatment.

Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of duodenal papilla tumor (DPT). Methods Analyses were made on the clinical data of 22 patients with DPT proved by operation and pathology from 1977 to 1999. Results There were 17 patients with duodenal papillary carcinoma, 5 with duodenal papilloma in this series. Discomfort of the upper abdomen (16 cases) and jaundice (22 cases) were the main symptoms. Barium meal examination, BUS, CT and ERCP were very useful in the diagnosis of DPT. In this series, 19 of 22 patients received pancreaticoduodenctomy, and 3 received local reseciton, the resection rate was 100%. 15 patients (88.2%) were followed up, the 5 years survival rate was 73.3%, 7 years survival rate was 46.7%. Conclusions Duodenoscope and ERCP are credible methods for diagnosis of this disease, resection is the main way of treatment.
