OBJECTIVE To establish management index system for rational drug use of key monitoring drugs， and provide reference for the management of key monitoring drugs in the hospitals. METHODS First， the management index system for rational drug use of key monitoring drugs was drafted by collecting the evidence from related medical literature. Next， using a modified Delphi method， twenty experienced experts from the fields of pharmacy， medical practice， healthcare insurance， and finance were selected to participate in two rounds of questionnaire consultations. Based on the expert enthusiasm coefficient， authority coefficient， degree of opinion concentration， and degree of coordination， the final indicators were determined to establish a management index system for rational drug use of key monitored drugs in medical institutions. RESULTS The expert enthusiasm coefficients reached 100% in both rounds of consultation. In first-level， second-level and third-level indicators， the authority coefficients of experts were 0.89， 0.86 and 0.87， and coordination coefficients of the experts in importance score were 0.300 （P＜ 0.05）， 0.125 （P＜0.05） and 0.139 （P＜0.05）， respectively. The average score for the importance of all indicators reached over 3.5， in which the full score ratio ranged from 35% to 100%. Except that the variation coefficient of a third-level indicator “number of specifications purchased for key monitored drugs” was 0.26， the variation coefficients of rest indicators were less than or equal to 0.25. Based on the results of expert consultation， final version of the management index system established in this study， including two first-level indicators （drug procurement and use， and rational drug use）， five second-level indicators （such as the accessibility， cost-effectiveness） and twenty third-level indicators （such as the number of specifications purchased for key monitored drugs， the increase in the cost of key monitored drugs）. CONCLUSIONS The management index system established in this study possesses high reliability and strong operability， and may provide a reference for the management of key monitoring drugs in the hospitals.

In this study, fluvoxamine maleate sustained-release pellet system tablets were prepared and were used to evaluate their release behaviors in vitro. Fluvoxamine maleate pellets were prepared using centrifugal-spherization method and coated by fluidized bed as bottom-spray. The multi-unit sustained-release pellets and appropriate excipients for prescription volumes were mixed uniformly and then compressed to tablets. Screening and determining the optimal formulation of drug loaded pellets through L8 (2⁴) Taguchi experiment. Using Minitab software to design a DOE experiment with 2⁴ partial factors, including material temperature, fan speed, atomization pressure, and spray rate to optimize the bottom spray coating process. Taking monostearate glycerol ester with a particle size of 24-40 mesh as the main diluent for tableting to relieve the delamination phenomenon between pellets and excipients during tablet pressing and reduce mechanical damage to the coating film. By examining the powder fluidity indexes such as angle of repose, bulk density, tapped density, and Hausner ratio of mixed particles, it was found that the flowability and compressibility are good and suitable for direct compression. Evaluate the basic properties of the sustained-release tablets, investigate the in vitro release behavior and study the release mechanism. The results of in vitro release test showed that the self-made sustained-release tablets could disintegrate into independent pellet units in phosphate buffer at pH 6.8 and release slowly within 24 h, which conformed to the first-order drug release model. The fluvoxamine maleate sustained-release pellet system tablets meet the requirements of preparation design and has a great commercial prospect.

Objective To explore the effect of mixed antibiotics on the intestinal flora of mice to affect the immune regulation of the body,explore the role of intestinal flora in the development of obesity,and provide new ideas and ways for the prevention and treatment of obesity.Methods Seventy-two 10-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into blank control(Ctrl)group,high-fat diet(HF)group,antibiotic(ABX)group,and combined(COMB)group(n=18).At the first 2 weeks(lavage intervention weeks),Ctrl and HF group were given normal saline gavage;ABX and COMB group were given mixed antibiotics gavage,and the gavage volume was 0.2 mL/animal/day.For the following 8 weeks(feeding weeks),Ctrl and ABX group were fed with ordinary diet,HF and COMB group were fed with high-fat diet.Body weight was measured weekly,and fasting blood glucose was measured before and after gavage,and at the 4th and 8th week of feeding.Oral glucose tolerance test was performed at the end of the experiment.The organ coefficient was measured and the cell morphology of white and brown adipose tissue was observed.Serum was collected for the determination of free fatty acid,high-density lipoprotein,low-density lipoprotein,triglyceride,and total cholesterol.Serum TNF-α,IL-10,IL-4,IL-13,IL-33 and MCP-1 was detected by ELISA.The stool of mice was collected for second generation sequencing.Results High-fat diet increased body weight,serum total cholesterol,low-density lipoprotein,IL-13,IL-33,TNF-α,MCP-1 content,and decreased glucose tolerance and organ coefficient in mice(P＜0.05).From the first feeding week to the end of the experiment,body weight in COMB group was significantly lower than that in HF group(P＜0.05).The level of glucose tolerance,serum total cholesterol,low density lipoprotein,IL-13,IL-33,TNF-α and MCP-1 in COMB group was lower than those in HF group(P＜0.05).The α diversity of intestinal flora in ABX group was lower than that in Ctrl group(P＜0.05).Congestion and bleeding in WAT were obvious in HF group,but not in COMB group.The microbial community composition of ABX and HF group was similar to that of Ctrl and COMB group,respectively.Conclusion High-fat diet induces obesity,disorder of glucose and lipid metabolism and inflammation in mice.Short-term mixed antibiotic use can regulate the intestinal flora of mice,mediate increased expression of related anti-inflammatory factors,up-regulate host immunity,and improve glucose and lipid metabolism in mice.
