Objective To evaluate the effect of low dose fentanyl on target plasma concentration (CP) of propofol (P) given by target controlled infusion (TCI) required to prevent response to proseal laryngeal mask insertion in 50% of patients (EC50). Methods Forty-six ASA Ⅰor Ⅱ patients aged 20-50 yr with body mass index ≤ 30 kg/m2 undergoing elective gynecological laparoscopy were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=23each):propofol group (P) and propofol-fentanyl group (PF). Anesthesia was induced with TCI of propofol. The initial Cp of propofol TCI was set at 2.5 μg/ml in group PF and 4 μg/ml in group P. Following equilibration between plasma and effect site concentration of propofol, fentanyl 1 μg/kg (in group PF) or normal saline (in group P) was injected iv. Laryngeal mask airway (LMA) was inserted at 3.5 min after fentanyl administration. EC50 was determined by up-and-down sequential trial. The ratio of Cp between the two consecutive patients was 1.2 in group P and 1.1 in group PF. LMA insertion response was defined as nausea, bucking and/or body movement during insertion. "Probit method was used to calculate the Echo and 95 % confidence interval required to prevent LMA insertion response. Results The EC50 and 95 % confidence interval of propofol given by TCI required to prevent LMA insertion response was 4.68 (4.20-5.21)μg/ml in group P and 2.63 (2.45-2.83) μg/ml in group PF. There was significant difference between the 2 groups. Conclusion Fentanyl 1 μg/kg iv can significantly reduce the Cp of propofol TCI required to prevent LMA insertion response.

OBJECTIVE:To provide basic industrial research and development recommendations for the supply-side structural reform in drug distribution in China. METHODS:Structure-conduct-performance(SCP)analysis paradigm from Harvard was used for in-depth study of market structure,business conduct and business performance in China since 2010. RESULTS:Since 2010, drug distribution industry in China had shown the scale of decline in the growth rate,low market concentration,increased barriers to entry,the leading of state-owned capital,etc. Though corporate mergers and acquisitions and public financing expanded the scale,management information,third-party logistics,Internet+and pharmacy alliance business model flourished,the industry op-erating performance was poor,state-owned enterprises showed poor performance. CONCLUSIONS:The transformation and upgrad-ing of the industry business model should be promoted by targetedly accelerating the supply-side structural reforms in the drug distri-bution industry,encouraging corporate finance mergers,breaking local protectionism,developing cooperative pharmacies and phar-maceutical third-party logistics alliances and leveraging the Internet.

Objective To study role of MDC/CCI22-CCR4 axis in mouse milky spots with peritoneal carcinomatosis of gastric cancer. Methods We examined the expression of CCR4 in 615 Mouse gastric cancer cell (MFC) lines by RT-PCR and Western-blot; Peritoneal metastasis model on the 615mouse was established by intraperitoneal injection of 0.2 ml MFC cells(1×104 cells). Dil fluorescence was used to observe the transfer process and section of MFC. Immunohistochemistry was conducted to detect the expression of CCR4 and CCL22 in omental milky spot; the structure of Milky spot was observed by scanning electron microscopy. Mice were randomly divided into 2 groups, namely, the saline control group (received saline) and MFC group. The concentration of CCL22 in ascitic fluid was measured in the 615 mice injected MFC after 6,8,10 days and in the saline group. Results MFC first metastasizes to the milky spot on the omentum, the expression of CCR4 and CCL22 were observered in the milky spot. The surface layer cells in milky spot consisted of discontinuous mesothelial cells and mainly macrophages and lymphocytes. The average value of CCL22 was 43 pg/ml and 364 pg/ml respectively in saline control group and MFC group.Conclusions MDC/CCL22-CCR4 axis plays an important role in the development of peritoneal carcinomatosis in mouse gastric cancer.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for improving licensed pharmacist qualification system and the legislation of Li-censed Pharmacist Law in China. METHODS:The implementation of licensed pharmacist system in China was introduced;based on the experience of licensed assistant physician system in China and pharmacy technician qualification system in USA,the necessi-ty and feasibility of setting up licensed assistant pharmacist were interpreted. RESULTS&CONCLUSIONS:At present,it is neces-sary to draw lessons from licensed assistant physician system in China and pharmacy technician qualification system in USA and set up licensed assistant pharmacist because of the shortage of licensed pharmacist,low threshold of qualification admittance,non-stan-dard licensed qualification of primary(assistant)pharmacy technician,absence of Licensed Pharmacist Law. It is recommended to promote the legislation of Licensed Pharmacist Law through clearing the definition and responsibility of licensed assistant pharma-cist,confirming examination scope and the threshold of qualification admittance,etc.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of human telomerase RNA component (hTR) and human telomerase reverse transcriptase(hTERT) mRNA expression in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma(SCC) and Bowen′s disease(BD). Methods Expressions of hTR and hTERT mRNA were detected by in situ hybridization technique in 30 cases of cutaneous SCC and 30 cases of BD. Results Weak expressions of hTR and hTERT mRNA were observed in BD, with positivity rates of 23.33% and 16.67%, respectively. Expressions of hTR and hTERT mRNA were found in 86.67% and 93.33%, respectively, in cutaneous SCC. hTR and hTERT mRNA were positive in 82.35% and 88.24%, respectively, of stage I and II of cutaneous SCC, without strong positive signals in those patients. hTR and hTERT mRNA were positive in 92.31% and 100%, respectively, of stage III and IV of cutaneous SCC, with strong positivity rates of 69.23% and 76.92% in those patients. Expressions of hTR and hTERT mRNA in skin tumors were gradually increased which positively linked with phenotypic progression and degree of dysplasia. Conclusion The strong expression of hTR and hTERT mRNA in the skin tumor suggest the presence of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma.
