Objective To investigate the characteristics,clinical indicators and risk factors of levofloxacin-induced arrhythmias in large hospitalized populations.Methods Using the"Adverse Event Active Monitoring and Intelligent Assessment Alert System-Ⅱ"(ADE-ASAS-Ⅱ),the electronic medical record of inpatients using levofloxacin in 2019 was monitored to obtain relevant data for patients with arrhythmias.Patients without arrhythmia were selected by propensity score matching,and the risk factors of levofloxacin-induced arrhythmias were analyzed by univariate and multivariate conditional logistic regression.Results The incidence of levofloxacin-induced arrhythmias was 1.64％in 12 879 people who used levofloxacin.The incidence in people over 65 years was 3.22％.The main manifestations of levofloxacin-induced arrhythmias were extrasystole(0.84％),tachycardia(0.63％),QT interval prolongation(0.44％),and no severe arrhythmias such as torsades de pointes and ventricular fibrillation.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the course of administration(OR=1.030,95％CI 1.009 to 1.050,P=0.004)and intravenous administration(OR=2.392,95％CI 1.478 to 3.870,P＜0.001)independent risk factors for levofloxacin-induced arrhythmias.Conclusion Arrhythmias caused by levofloxacin are common and have various types,among which the occurrence of QT interval prolongation is occasional.We should pay more attention to elderly patients who receive intravenous levofloxacin and try to avoid long courses of medication.

Objective:To preliminarily estimate and study the effect of nucleic acid testing in blood screening on the residual risk (RR) of transfusion transmitted HBV infection (TTI HBV).Methods:Using the NAT yield/WP ratio model and adopting the relevant data of information management system of practice comparison working party in the Mainland of China, this paper analyzed the trend of the RR of TTI HBV among 18 blood centers from 2015 to 2019 in China, and compared the impact of two kinds of blood screening strategies which were ELISA+ ID-NAT/MP-NAT (individual-donation nucleic acid testing or mini-pool nucleic acid testing) and ELISA + MP-NAT on RR in 2019.Results:The overall trends of the 5-year RR of HBV among 18 blood centers showed by trend chi square test were NAT single positive rate trend χ2= 39.42( P<0.01) and residual risk trend χ2= 279.792( P<0.01); The influence on RR from the differences of ELISA+ ID-NAT/MP-NAT and ELISA+ MP-NAT was statistically significant, and chi square test showed that χ2= 7.4( P<0.01). Conclusions:Since the implementation of nucleic acid testing in the blood screening in China from 2015, the residual risk of transfusion transmitted HBV infection has decreased year by year. The observed two blood screening strategies which dominated in China may lead to discrepancy in the residual risk of TTI.

Objective:To explore the clinical application and long-term safety of hydroxychloroquine sulfate (HCQ) in the treatment of rheumatic diseases.Methods:A multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted between August 2017 and August 2018 in a random sample of eleven medical institutions of rheumatology and immunology in China. Patients who took HCQ for more than 3 months were enrolled into this study. The cumulative dose and long-term side effects of HCQ were recorded. The changes of laboratory indexes before and after treatment with HCQ were analyzed. Categorical variables were presented with counts and proportions, and evaluated by Chi-square test. Continuous parametric data were presented as Mean±standard deviation, and evaluated by Student's t test or Mann-Whitney U test. P-values less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 886 patients with rheumatic diseases were enrolled into this study, including 505 cases with systemic lupus erythematosus (57.0%), 210 cases with rheumatoid arthritis (23.7%), 80 cases with Sj?gren's syndrome (9.0%), 57 cases with undifferentiated connective tissue disease (6.4%), 12 cases of systemic vasculitis (1.4%), 10 cases of mixed connective tissue disease (1.1%), 7 cases of myositis (0.8%) and 5 cases with systemic sclerosis (0.6%). The most common long-term side effects of HCQ was skin or mucous lesions (12.4%) and vision problems (8.0%). Other adverse reactions included problems of digestive system (3.0%), nervous system (2.1%), musculoskeletal system (1.1%) and cardiovascular system (0.9%). 140 cases (15.8%) had stopped taking HCQ during the treatment. More than half of them decided to stop taking medicine by themselves. Fifty-four patients (6.1%) stopped using HCQ due to side effects while 24 of them took it again, and another 12 patients (1.4%) stopped the drug due to remission of illness. Patients were divided into three groups according to the cumulative dose of HCQ: less than 500 g, 500-1 000 g and more than 1 000 g respectively. There was significant difference in the incidence of long-term side effects among the three groups ( χ2=6.382, P=0.041). The last group (more than 1 000 g) suffered the highest incidence of long-term adverse reactions (37.1%). No severe adverse drug reactions were observed in this study. Conclusion:Hydroxychloroquine is widely used in the treatment of rheumatic diseases. The incidence of long-term side effects is 20.4%, is 6.1% lead to drug withdrawal, which are especially related to the cumulative doses. It should be adjusted properly according to the clinical application.

Objective:To investigate effects of bone-resorptive lesion on stress distribution of femoral head and on progression in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH).Methods:From April 2014 to September 2018, a total of 155 femoral heads from 94 patients diagnosed with ARCO stage II and III ONFH were retrospectively reviewed, including 77 males and 17 females with aged 39.90±10.45 years old (ranged from 18-64 years). The hips were divided into two groups according to whether there were bone-resorptive lesions. Further, we compared whether there was statistical difference between the two groups in staging. Then, a case of ARCO II hip joint without bone-resorptive lesion was selected from the included patients. Six femoral head with different diameters of spherical bone-resorptive lesion of 5 mm, 7 mm, 10 mm, 14 mm, 18 mm, and 23 mm were simulated. The influence of bone-resorptive lesion on the stress distribution of necrotic area and a spherical shell extending 1 mm radially around the bone-resorptive lesion was investigated by finite element method in slow walking conditions.Results:Of the 155 ONFH hips, 67 hips are complicated by bone-resorptive lesions, of which 17 were ARCO II, 50 were ARCO III. A total of 88 hips did not contain bone-resorptive lesions, of which 58 were ARCO II, ARCO III 30 cases. The proportion of ARCO stage II in the group with bone-resorptive lesions was significantly higher than that in the group without bone-resorptive lesions (χ 2=25.03, P=0.000). The finite element stress distribution cloud diagram showed that there was a stress concentration area around the bone-resorptive lesions. The maximum von Mises stress around bone-resorptive lesions in the models that contained a synthetic bone-resorptive lesions were significantly higher than those reported in the matched, non-synthetic bone-resorptive lesions finite element models ( t=3.139, P=0.026). The values for maximum von Mises stress around bone-resorptive lesions were 6.94±1.78 MPa and 5.01±0.35 MPa for the group with synthetic bone-resorptive lesions and the group non-synthetic bone-resorptive lesions, respectively. There was a positive correlation between the diameter of bone-resorptive lesions and the maximum and mean von Mises stress of necrotic areas as well as the maximum von Mises stress around bone-resorptive lesions. Conclusion:Bone-resorptive lesions can increase the maximum stress and average stress in the necrotic area. The larger the bone-resorptive lesion, the more the stress increases. There is a stress concentration area around the bone-resorptive lesions, which may accelerate the collapse of the femoral head.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of children bronchial asthma detection by using negative expiratory pressure (NEP) technique.Methods The children with bronchial asthma admitted to Department of Pediatrics of Zhejiang Provincial Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital from March 2016 to March 2018 were enrolled.They were divided into mild group (0-4 scores) and severe group (5-12 scores) according to asthma clinical scoring criteria.The children undergoing physical examination at the same period were served as healthy control group.NEP technique and tidal volume (VT) were detected by the pulmonary function instrument.Respiratory flow-volume curves (F-V curves) without NEP were compared with tidal F-V curves after NEP application to assess expiratory flow limitation (EFL).EFL index was calculated according to the percentage of expiratory VT after EFL and expiratory VT when NEP was not used.Pearson correlation method was used to analyze the relationship between EFL index and severity of bronchial asthma.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to analyze the value of EFL index in evaluating the severity of bronchial asthma in children.Results A total of 86 children with bronchial asthma were enrolled in the study,and 84 patients completed the test and 2 children withdrew due to other diseases.Finally,84 patients were included in the final analysis,including 41 mild and 43 severe children.Forty-two healthy children in the same period were served as healthy control group.There was no significant difference in gender or age among the groups,and no adverse reactions occurred during the test.The EFL index of children with bronchial asthma was significantly higher than that of the healthy control group,and it was increased with the severity of the disease [mild group compared with healthy control group:(30.60± 6.03)％ vs.(6.64 ± 2.37)％,severe group compared with healthy control group:(33.70 ± 5.41)％ vs.(6.64 ± 2.37)％,both P ＜ 0.05].There was no significant difference in respiratory rate (RR) or VT between mild group or severe group and healthy control group [RR (times/min):31.45 ± 4.18,32.81 ± 4.07 vs.31.97 ± 4.01,VT (mL/kg):6.29 ± 1.14,5.96 ± 0.90 vs.6.30 ± 1.20,all P ＞ 0.05].It was shown by the correlation analysis that EFL index was positively correlated with the severity of asthma (r =0.836,P =0.000).It was shown by ROC curve analysis that the area under ROC curve (AUC) of EFL index for predicting the severity of bronchial asthma in children was 0.801 [95％ confidence interval (95％C/) =0.725-0.878];when the best cut-off value of EFL index was 29.21％,the sensitivity was 85.7％,the specificity was 69.2％,the positive predictive value was 75.1％,and the negative predictive value was 60.2％.Conclusions The EFL index measured by NEP technology was closely related to the severity of bronchial asthma.The higher the EFL index,the more serious of the condition.The severity of bronchial asthma could be early judged by EFL index,which provided a basis for the evaluation and treatment of bronchial asthma.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of dyslipidemia among adults in the southern mountains of Ningxia Hui Aulonomous Region. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among a representative sample of 10 639 adults in the southern mountains using a population proportionate-sampling method in 2014. Questionnaires were completed and physical and laboratory examinations were performed. A total of 10 172 subjects were included in the analysis after excluding those with missing data. Dyslipidemia was diagnosed according to "Chinese guidelines for the prevention and treatment of dyslipidemia in adults" (2007). Results: The prevalence of dyslipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and increased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was 33.90%, 0.30%, 12.52%, 28.53%, and 1.14%, and the age-specific prevalence was 32.42%, 0.29%, 10.97%, 27.70%, and 1.07%, respectively. Borderline high triglycerides and borderline increased LDL-C were found in 13.09% and 6.52% of the study population, respectively. The rates of hypertriglyceridemia, decreased HDL-C, and dyslipidemia were higher in males than in females (P<0.05). The prevalence of dyslipidemia was higher in the group characterized by the risk factors of obesity, hypertension, diabetes, hyperuricemia, smoking, and drinking, compared to those without these factors (P<0.05). Conclusion The prevalence of dyslipidemia was higher in men than in women, and the differences were statistically significant. Hypertriglyceridemia and decreased HDL-C were the two major types of dyslipidemia. Obesity, hypertension, diabetes, hyperuricemia, smoking, and drinking alcohol increased the risk of dyslipidemia.
