AIDS has become a global disease,and a variety of drugs are used in the treatment of AIDS ,but the interindividual variabilities in efficacy and toxicity remain important limitations for the use of these drugs.Studies have shown genetic polymor-phism is the main reason for interindividual variabilities of drug reaction.In recent years,scholars focused on the pharmacog-enomics of anti-AIDS drugs and found that genetic polymor-phisms,in large part,determine the interindividual variabilities of the responese of these drugs.This paper reviews the research progress on pharmacogenomics of the four types of anti-AIDS drugs commonly used in China,including nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs),non-nucleoside reverse tran-scriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs),protease inhibitors (PIs)and integrase inhibitors (raltegravir).

Objective To investigate early nasogastric nutrition on patients with acute decompensated chronic heart failure,and observe its influence on patient's disease outcome.Methods From January 2012 to December 2013,100 cases with acute decompensated chronic heart failure were used as the research subjects,were randomly divided into experimental and control groups with 50 cases each group.Patients of two groups adopt expansion of blood vessels,strong heart,diuresis,and routine anti-infection treatment;Based on this scheme,experimental group adopt early nasogastric nutrition.The cardiac function index,the change of nutritional status and clinical curative effect and the result of follow-up within 1 year after discharge of two groups were compared.Results Left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) and left ventricular end-systolic dimension (LVESD) in two groups after treatment were decreased,and the descender of experimental group was superior to that of the control group with statistically significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,left ventricular ejection fractions (LVEF) of two groups were improved,and the rise of experimental group was superior to that of control group with statistically significant difference (P ＜0.05).In the two groups after treatment,the serum brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels were significantly decreased,and the descender of the experimental group was more than that of control group with statistically significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,body mass index (BMI),the level of serum prealbumin (PA),transferrin (TRF),and the total number of lymphocytes of two groups were increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05);and BMI,the level of serum PA and TRF,and the total number of lymphocytes of the experimental group were significantly better than those of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The total effective rate of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The exacerbation rates,readmission and mortality rate of experimental group follow-up within 1 year after discharge were significantly lower than that of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The early nasogastric nutrition on the patients with acute decompensated chronic heart failure was better able to improve patients' nutrition state,more conducive to patients with cardiac function recovery,improve the clinical curative effect,and reduce the exacerbation rates,and readmission and mortality rate.

Glioma is one of the most refractory tumors affecting the central nervous system. As a new technique, cryoablation has been considered for the treatment of glioma. Considering previous studies, we summarized the mechanism of cryoablation to treat glioma based on pathology and molecular biology perspectives. We also analyzed the indications, effects, and problems of cryoablation in clinical practice. Furthermore, we proposed that this technique may be used in future trends and applications. The mechanism of eradicating tumor cells by cryoablation involves the following:(1) using an ultralow temperature to induce necrosis and apoptosis;(2) changing the local microcirculation of tumors;and (3) adjusting anti-tumor immunity. As an alternative surgical treatment, cryoablation could improve the therapeutic effects by real-time medical imaging. Cryoablation combined with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and other methods could provide a more effective treatment for gliomas. Therefore, cryotherapy could be a possible treatment for glioma and become a sustained research field.

Objective To study the process of removing bacterial endotoxins by ultrafiltration technology in dextran 40 injection. Methods Dextran 40 solution was ultrafiltrated by 100,200,and 300 kDa aperture ultrafiltration membranes with composite, PES and PVDF materials. In order to optimize ultrafiltration process,the content of effective component and endotoxins were detected by HPLC and kinetic-turbidimetry,respectively,and the change of particle size distribution in dextran 40 solution was analyzed before and after ultrafiltration. Results The transmittance of dextran 40 was close to the same MWCO and different membrane material. When MWCO reached 300 kDa,the transmittance was above 91%,which met the requirement of filtration. The endotoxin removal rates by 100-300 kDa composite ultrafiltration membranes were more than 99%. But the endotoxin removal rates of both of PES and PVDF membranes were less than 40%,which were unable to guarantee the removal efficiency of the endotoxin in dextran 40 solution. The particle size declined after ultrafiltration by 300 kDa composite membrane, and level of the insoluble particles decreased. Conclusion The 300 kDa composite ultrafiltration membrane can effectively remove endotoxin in dextran 40 solution with less main components loss. The material can meet requirements for producing dextran 40 injection.
