OBJECTIVE:To reevaluate the guidelines/cons ensus,systematic review/Meta-analysis of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs)in the prevention of drug-induced gastrointestinal injury ,and to provide evidence-based reference for its clinical use. METHODS: The relevant guidelines/consensus and systematic review/Meta-analysis literatures at home and abroad were systematically reviewed ,and the re evaluation was carried out from the effectiveness ,safety and economy dimensions to analyze the current situation of clinical use of PPIs in the prevention of drug-induced gastrointestinal injury in adults and children. RESULTS : A total of 14 clinical guidelines/consensus and 10 systematic review/Meta-analysis literatures of PPIs for the prevention of drug-related gastrointestinal injury at home and abroad were sorted out and included. In terms of effectiveness ,PPIs could prevent various drug-related gastric mucosal damage ,gastrointestinal bleeding and other damage to the digestive tract ,but PPIs had not yet obtained the indication for children in China ;PPIs were widely used in the treatment of children ’s digestive tract diseases ,which belonged to off-label medication. In terms of safety ,the common adverse reactions of PPIs included headache ,gastrointestinal symptoms,etc. There may be risks of kidney disease and fracture during long-term application. In terms of economy ,for some patients with digestive tract and cardiovascular disease risk ,the economic benefit of NSAIDs combined with PPIs were higher ; esomeprazole 20 mg and 40 mg daily were equally effective in preventing ulcer recurrence caused by NSAIDs ,but increasing the dose could not improve the preventive effect. CONCLUSIONS :The preventive effect of PPIs on drug-induced gastrointestinal injury is supported by evidence-based evidence. It has good safety in adults and has certain economic benefits ;but it belongs to off-label drug use in children in China ,and the safety and economy still need to refer to the results of adult studies. In the future ,a number of multicenter prospective clinical studies based on Chinese pediatric population are still needed to provide more support for the prevention and treatment of drug-induced gastrointestinal injury by PPIs in children.

OBJECTIVE: To provide reference for the selection of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) in clinic. METHODS: A questionnaire survey was conducted among pediatricians from medical institutions of 11 provinces (districts, cities) to analyze the drug selection and reasons, dosage form selection [by comprehensive score (CS)] of 3 kinds of ICS as budesonide (BUD), beclomethasone (BDP) and fluticasone (FP), medication compliance and influential factors (by CS). RESULTS: A total of 200 questionnaires were sent out, and 196 valid questionnaires were collected with effective rate of 98.00%. Pediatric clinicians preferred BUD as a control drug for asthma in children (158 cases, 80.61%), followed by FP (22 cases, 11.22%) and BDP (2 cases, 1.02%) and the rest had no tendency (14 cases, 7.14%). Clinicians who chose BUD mainly believed that the drug had better clinical efficacy, and was more recommended by guidelines and experts, more recognized by patients and so on. In addition, of all inhalation equipment for children asthma, pediatric clinicians believed that parents or children were more easier to master atomizer (CS: 4.04), followed by pressurized metered dose inhalers (pMDI) (with spacer) (CS: 2.75), pMDI (without spacer) (CS: 1.71), dry powder inhalers (DPI) (turbuhaler) (CS: 1.46) and DPI (accuhaler) (CS: 1.08). For the evaluation of patients’ medication compliance, 48 (24.49%), 88 (44.90%), 58 (29.59%) pediatricians thought that the actual administration accounted for <50%, 50%-74%, 75%-99% of the medical order dosages, respectively. Only 2 (1.02%) subjects thought that the patients would fully obey. The main factors affecting children’s medication compliance were worrying about side effects of long-term medication (CS: 9.19), drug withdrawal after improvement (CS: 8.16), and children’s treatment incompatibility (CS: 7.82). CONCLUSIONS: Pediatricians tend to choose BUD as drug for asthma control, and atomizer is treated as the easiest inhalation equipment for children. At the same time, pediatricians have low evaluation on the medication compliance of parents and children.

s:Objective To investigate the possible role of basic ifbroblast growth factor (bFGF) and transforming growth factorβ1 (TGF-β1) in mice with Coxsackie viral myocarditis and their relationship. Methods Eighty male BALB/c mice, 4 weeks old, were divided randomly into study group (n=40) and control group (n=40). The study group was repeated intraperitoneally injected with Coxasckie viral B3 to establish the model of viral myocarditis, while the control group was injected with virus-free Eagle’s medium in the same period. On the 7th, 14th, 28th and 42th day after the ifrst injection, 8 alive mice selected randomly from each group were sacriifced to examine the myocardial collagen volume fraction (CVF) by Masson dyeing, and to detect the protein and mRNA expression of bFGF and TGF-β1 by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. The correlations were analyzed. Results At each time point, the expressions of protein and mRNA of bFGF and TGF-β1 both in study group were signiifcantly higher than those in control group (P<0.01), and gradually increased over time. The expressions of protein and mRNA of bFGF and TGF-β1 were positively correlated with CVF (r=0.86~0.95, all P<0.01). In addition, the expressions of protein and mRNA of bFGF also had positive correlation with the expression of protein and mRNA of TGF-β1 (r=0.94, 0.92, P<0.01). Conclusion bFGF and TGF-β1 may promote the occurrence and development of myocardial ifbrosis in viral myocarditis, which may provide a new target for future treatment of myocardial ifbrosis.
