FENG Shijie, MA Xiujuan, ZONG Ying, MAO Yu, ZHANG Xiaodong, GONG Xuelian, ZHANG Xiaofang, LU Guocai
2014, 32(3): 161-166. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1006-0111.2014.03.001
Abstract:
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is a critical nuclear transcriptional factor mediating cell adaptive response to hypoxia in mammalian and human. It is the key mediator which modulates oxygen homeostasis exclusively. In the one hand, HIF-1 can protect and promote kinds of physiological processes, such as embryo normal development, cartilage and bone formation. In the other hand, it is also involved in lots of human deceases which is caused by ischemia and hypoxia, such as tumor, diabetes and its complications. The molecular mechanisms of HIF-1 involved in these diseases have become a research hotspot and such studies will provide the new therapeutic means for these diseases, recent new drug researches have been focused on HIF-1 related signal pathway inhibitors, HIF-1 activity inhibitors, HIF-1 targeted therapy, etc.

Objective To observe the effect of different doses unilateral and compound of artesunate and ursolic acid on lipid metabolism in rats' model, find out the best ratio of artesunate and ursolic acid. Methods Lipid metabolism disorders model was induced by feeding high fat diet in rat.The best ratio was screened through comparing the lipid level of rats ofdifferent groups. Results The results showed that Artesunate (high dose)+Ursolicacid (high dose) significantly reduced TG, CHO and LDL-C, increased HDL-C and H/L. Lipid-lowering effect was superior the positive drug fenofibrate, but also superior to the same dose of artesunate and ursolic acid alone. No significant effect of each test sample on the rat liver function was observed(P>0.05). Conclusion Artesunate and ursolic acid ratio of 1:1 had the best lipid-lowering effect, and the recommended dose was (50+50) mg/kg.

2014, 32(3): 216-219. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1006-0111.2014.03.014
Abstract:
Objective To investigate the vancomycin trough concentration in elderly patients with severe infection and provide references for clinical use of drugs effectively. Methods According to the Ccr of elderly patients(56 cases), who were≥65 years old, the patients were divided into two groups, one with Ccr≥50 ml/min, which named group A, the other with Ccr between 20 ml/min and 50 ml/min, which named group B. The use of vancomycin, vancomycin steady-state plasma trough concentration and the differences of renal function were analyzed before and after in both two groups. Results There were 31cases of patients in group A(25 cases of them use vancomycin 1 g,q 12 h;other 6 cases use 0.5 g,q 12 h), 25 cases of patients in group B(15 cases of them use vancomycin 1 g,q 12 h;other 10 cases use 0.5 g,q 12 h). The percentage that the trough concentration of the patients who use two different scheme of using drugs in group A was between 10 mg/L and 20 mg/L is 12%(3/25) and 66.67%(4/6).The percentage that the trough concentration of the patients who used two different scheme of using drugs in group B was between 10 mg/L and 20 mg/L is 20%(3/15) and 60%(6/10). The percentage that trough concentrationis more than 20 mg/L is 73.33 %(11/15) and 30%(3/10). The serum creatinine value of the 15 patients of all cases except for group B of which vancomycin dosage was 1 g, q 12 h had significantly risen after using the drug(P<0.05). The urea nitrogen had no obvious change (P>0.05). The serum creatinine value and urea nitrogen of other patients had no significant change after using the drug (P>0.05). Group B had kidney toxicities observed in 5 patients, the dosage of vancomycin was 1 g, q 12 h, valley concentration>30 mg/L. There was no kidney toxicities observed in group A. Conclusion The use of vancomycin in elderly patients must depend on their Ccr. If the Ccr was larger than 50 ml/min, the use of vancomycin should be 1 g,q 12 h, and the Ccr was between 20 ml/min and 50 ml/min, the use should be 0.5 g. In addition, blood trough concentration need to be paid more attention in elderly patients in order to regulate the regimens according to the individual differences.

Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of vitamin B on the treatment of senile vaginitis. Methods A total of 124 patients suffered senile vaginitis were included in the study, who were accepted the treatment of compound metronidazole suppositories and estriol cream. By simple randomization,the patients accepted the treatment of vitamin B were divided into the observe group and control group. The difference of the clinical efficacy, symptoms and signs and recurrence rate were compared between the two groups. Results ①There's no significant difference of total effective rate between the observed group(93.55%) and the control group(88.71%)(P>0.05).②After treatment, the increased secretion, vaginal itching, vaginal burning, vaginal wall congestion and secretions microscope cleanliness were significantly improved than that before the treatment in both of the groups(P<0.01). ③The recurrence rate in the observed group(24.24%) was significantly lower than the control group (60%). Conclusion Vitamin B could improve the symptoms and reduce relapse rate of senile vaginitis.

2014, 32(3): 222-224. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1006-0111.2014.03.016
Abstract:
Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of Saccharomyces boulardii on antibiotics associated diarrhea(AAD)in infant pneumonia. Methods 302 hospitalized infant patients (1 month-3 years) with pneumonia but without gastroenteric disease were selected, and antibiotics were administrated intravenously at least 5 continuous days for each patient. Patients were all given antibiotics and randomly divided into three groups: control group with no Saccharomyces boulardii administration (group A, 60 cases);Saccharomyces boulardii were applied as addition on the occurrence of diarrhea (group B, 92 cases), and Saccharomyces boulardii and antibiotics were co-administrated (group C, 150 cases). Incidences of AAD in all groups were carefully examined and differences of therapeutic effect between groups were compared and analyzed. Results The incidence of AAD in Group C was significantly lower than that in other groups. In term of diarrhea severity, no significant difference was observed in all groups (P>0.05). However, duration of diarrhea showed significant different between groups (P<0.001): group A with the longest duration and group C with the shortest. The results indicated that the total efficiency of anti-diarrhea in group C was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05).However, group B presented no significant difference compared with neither control group nor group C in term of therapeutic effect on diarrhea. Conclusion Administration of Saccharomyces boulardii Sachets could shorten the duration of diarrhea on the occurrence of AAD in infant pneumonia. According to our results, Saccharomyces boulardii was effective in both preventing the development of AAD and shortening duration of diarrhea, and therefore improved therapeutic effect on ADD.
