Objective:To observe the clinical effect of omeprazole based triple therapy in the treatment of children with peptic ulcer.Methods:From September 2016 to September 2018, 86 children with peptic ulcer in the People's Hospital of Qingyuan County were selected in this study.By using the random number table method, they were divided into two groups, with 43 cases in each group.The control group received ranitidine based triple therapy treatment, the observation group was given omeprazole based triple therapy treatment.The treatment course of the two groups was 30 d. The eradication rate, clinical effect, gastrointestinal hormone level and adverse reactions of helicobacter pylori were compared between the two groups.Results:The eradication rate and total effective rate of helicobacter pylori in the observation group were 97.67%(42/43) and 95.35%(41/43), respectively, which were higher than those in the control group[81.40%(34/43) and 79.07%(34/43)], the differences were statistically significant (χ 2=6.081, 5.108, all P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of gastrin and motilin in the observation group were (75.29±8.31)μmol/L, (164.88±15.05)ng/L, respectively, which were lower than those in the control group [(81.07±8.96)μmol/L, (204.15±17.67)ng/L], the differences were statistically significant( t=3.102, 11.095, all P<0.05). The somatostatin level of the observation group was (22.67±3.95)ng/L, which was higher than that of the control group [(18.31±3.31)ng/L], and the difference was statistically significant( t=5.548, P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(χ 2=0.938, P>0.05). Conclusion:Omeprazole based triple therapy is safe and effective in the treatment of children with peptic ulcer, which is helpful to eradicate helicobacter pylori, reduce gastrin, motilin levels and improve the level of somatostatin.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of eltrombopag combined with immunosuppressive therapy in patients with aplastic anemia (AA) in China.Methods:We investigated and analyzed the clinical data of AA patients from 14 hematological treatment centers who were treated with oral eltrombopag for at least 3 mon.Results:We enrolled 56 AA patients, including 19 treatment-na?ve patients and 37 IST-refractory patients. The median administration period for eltrombopag was 7 (3-31) months, and the median maximum stable dosage was 75 mg/d (50-150 mg/d) . The 3-month hematological response (HR) rate was 60%, and the complete response (CR) rate was 30% in 10 SAA patients who were treated with first-line eltrombopag and standard IST (ATG+CsA) . Eight of 9 eltrombopag and CsA ± androgen first-line treated SAA patients responded (8/9, 89%) and 4 (44%) gave CR. The overall HR and CR rates were 79% and 52.6%, respectively, among these 19 patients by the end of the follow-up period. Of the 19 AA patients who were refractory to CsA ± androgen, 11 achieved HR (57.9%) at 3 mon, and the best HR rate was 44% in standard IST (ATG+CsA) refractory 18 patients after eltrombopag treatment. Fifty-one percent of the patients experienced mild or moderate adverse events, and gastrointestinal discomfort was the most common adverse effect reported by the study subjects.Conclusion:Adding Eltrombopag in first-line IST can accelerate the acquisition and improve the quality of hematological responses in AA patients. AA with relatively more residual hematopoietic cells may be well treated with eltrombopag and non-ATG IST. Eltrombopag can be used as salvage therapy for CsA±androgen refractory patients. Eltrombopag was generally safe and well tolerated by AA patients in China.
