Errors in prescriptions are common phenomena in prescriptions produced by clinicians. With development and application of information technology in medical fields, electronic prescription system has been regarded as the best resolution for effective prevention of errors in prescriptions. A retrospective study of the prescriptions made by the electronic prescription system of the hospital studied over one year showed that this system could reduce errors easily made in manual prescriptions significantly, but it failed to reduce the errors related to dosages. Those dosage-related errors were mainly caused by change of physician prescribing behavior and defective man-machine interaction. Electronic prescription system, though functions basically, can not avoid prescription errors effectively, which poses a potential threat to safe use of medicines in patients. It is urgent at the moment to perfect the functions of electronic prescription system, promote a friendly man-machine interaction and reduce errors made by system errors.

BACKGROUND: There are no ideal substitutes for meniscus. Meniscel allograft transplantation has become a feasible method to retain maniscal function following injury. Currently, the meniscus conservancy methods include fresh meniscus, low temperature preserved meniscus; freeze-dried meniscus.OBJECTIVE: To observe the long-term effects of meniscus allograft transplantation by different methods.METHODS: A total of 70 adult New Zealand rabbits were used, and 30 were selected as meniscus donors. The remaining 40 rabbits were divided into 4 groups (n=10): after meniscectomy, control group was not treated; fresh group underwent fresh meniscus allograft transplantation; low temperature group underwent low temperature preserved meniscus allograft transplantation; freeze-dried group underwent freeze-dried meniscus allograft transplantation. Of 30 donors, 10 received fresh meniscus transplantation, and the other received temperature preserved meniscus and freeze-dried meniscus transplantation 1 week after low temperature and freeze dried preservation. The rabbits were sacrificed 12 months after surgery for gross and histological observation.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The meniscus allografts of rabbits healed well, and no rabbits died. Gross observation showed that the appearance and elasticity of fresh meniscus group was similar to normal meniscus; tibial plateau was covered well, with no additional wearing in the cartilage of tibial plateau or condyles of femur. In low temperature and freeze-dried preservation groups,the meniscus grafts healed well, but their volume was small and the elasticity was poor; tibial plateau was only partially covered.Pathological observation suggested that fresh meniscus group had orderly arranged collage fiber and similar chondrocyte appearance, number and distribution to normal meniscus, while sparse collagen fiber end small number of meniscus grafts were observed in the other groups. Results show that meniscal allogrefting can survive, retain certain function and structure and prevent the degenerative changes of the knee joint. Moreover, fresh meniscal grafts exhibit best effects, as the grafts following low temperature or freeze-dried preservation degenerate and their volume diminish 1 year following meniscectomy.

Objective To explore the expression of Speckle-type POZ protein-like(SPOPL)in human glioma tis?sues and its relationship with clinical pathological parameters and prognosis. Methods Immunohistochemical and west?ern blotting method were used to detect SPOPL expression in glioma tissues and tumor peripheral tissues in 68 cases of glioma patients including 32 cases of low grade gliomas (WHO I- II), and 36 cases of high grade gliomas (WHO III-IV). T test,χ2 test, Kaplan-Meier method and the Cox regression model were used to analyze the relationship between the expression and clinical indicators. Results The expression of SPOPL was significantly lower in gliomas than in tumor pe?ripheral tissues (t=-8.754, P<0.05), the expression of SPOPL was lower in high pathological grade tissues than in low grade of glioma tissues (t=-13.552, P<0.05). SPOPL expression was associated with pathological grade ( χ2=4.023, P<0.05). Cox regression model showed that the tumor pathological grade and different SPOPL protein expression were inde?pendent risk factors for the prognosis of patients with glioma. Conclusions SPOPL may be a biomarkers of human brain gliomas and can help to evaluate the prognosis of brain glioma.

Objective To investigate the treatment values of precise target delineation of chest MRI for lung cancer Methods From August 2011 to February 2015 , 45 non-small cell lung cancer patients were given chest CT scans and MRI scans before radiotherapy , and then active target tumor delineation , then related influencing factors were analyzed. Results All patients completed CT scans and MRI positioning. For patients that it was difficult to identify lung tissue lesions caused by lung cancer through CT , their MRI imaging showed high signal and the boundaries between the tumor and surrounding normal tissue became relatively clear. Meanwhile , 20 patients of borders were diagnosed by CT , while 25 by MRI; 36 patients with lymph node metastasis were diagnosed by CT while 40 by MRI. The difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that pathological type and atelectasis were the influence factors for CT and MRI tumor target delineation differences (P<0.05), and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed the atelectasis was the main factor (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with CT, breast MRI can precisely delineate target to improve the accuracy of target localization before radiotherapy. It can help determine lymph node metastasis and avoid the impact of atelectasis then ensure the accuracy of radiotherapy.

BACKGROUND:
Vaccination has been shown effective in controlling the global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and reducing severe cases. This study was to assess the flare and change in disease activity after COVID-19 vaccination in patients with stable rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
METHODS:
A prospective cohort of RA patients in remission or with low disease activity was divided into a vaccination group and a non-vaccination group based on their COVID-19 vaccination status. Each of them was examined every 3 to 6 months. In the vaccination group, disease activity was compared before and after vaccination. The rates of flare defined as disease activity scores based on 28-joint count (DAS28) >3.2 with ΔDAS28 ≥0.6 were compared between vaccination and non-vaccination groups.
RESULTS:
A total of 202 eligible RA patients were enrolled. Of these, 98 patients received no vaccine shot (non-vaccination group), and 104 patients received two doses of vaccine (vaccination group). The median time interval from pre-vaccination visit to the first immunization and from the second dose of vaccine to post-vaccination visit was 67 days and 83 days, respectively. The disease activity scores at pre-vaccination and post-vaccination visits in the vaccination group patients were similar. At enrollment, gender, RA disease course, seropositivity, and disease activity were comparable across the two groups. Flare was observed in five (4.8%) of the vaccination group patients and nine (9.2%) of the non-vaccination group patients at post-vaccination assessment ( P = 0.221). In terms of safety, 29 (27.9%) patients experienced adverse events (AEs) after vaccination. No serious AEs occurred.
CONCLUSIONS
COVID-19 vaccinations had no significant effect on disease activity or risk of flare in RA patients in remission or with low disease activity. Patients with stable RA should be encouraged to receive the COVID-19 vaccination.
