Research progress of mitochondrial dysfunction in sepsis / 中国临床药理学与治疗学

Sepsis is life-threatening multiple organ failure (MOF) caused by the disorder of body's response to infection. Although it is the main reason of death in intensive care patients, the mechanism of sepsis-induced MOF is still unclear. As an essential organelle of cells, mitochondrial is responsible for many funtions in cells such as energy supply and signal regulation. Recent researches showed that mitochondrial dysfunction may be one of the important reasons of MOF. This review describes the pathophysiological functions of mitochondria and the pathological damage mechanisms of MOF in sepsis, it will provide the therapeutic targets or new ideas for clinical treatment of sepsis.

Analysis of epidemiology in 2 055 trauma patients / 中华急诊医学杂志

Objective To investigate the causes and time distribution of trauma in prehospital patients. Methods The data of 2 055 trauma patients of our department admitted from January 2003 to March 2005 were analyzed. Results ① The mortality was 1.9%. ②723 patients (35.2%) were common trauma,and 32 had falling injuries (4.4%) with 18 dead including 12 at scene and 6 in emergency room. ③1 332 were Traffic accidents (64.8%) including 13 dead associated with bike , electric bicycle and motorbike. At the same time, there were 566 patients from 18:00 to 24:00 including 298 patients(52.7%) for the drivers after drinking. Conclusion Falling injuries and traffic accidents were the most important cause for death, especially in building spot . So we should enhance the security education for workers in these companies and limit the speed of electric bicycle for the increasing injury and mortality in traffic accidents . Driving after drinking at night should be prohibited too.

Chinese Pharmaceutical Industry vs. Other Industries in Profits Level / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE:To probe into the profits level and profits-gaining capability of Chinese pharmaceutical industry.METHODS:Based on the data recorded in yearbooks between 2001 and 2006,the profits levels were compared between Chinese pharmaceutical industry and China social average assets,other industries in China and overseas pharmaceutical industry.RESULTS:Between 2000～ 2005,the profits level of Chinese pharmaceutical industry was lower than that of Chinese social average assets,i.e.the profit-gaining capability of Chinese pharmaceutical industry was lower than that of China social average assets.Between 2002～ 2004,the profits level of Chinese pharmaceutical industry ranked at the first 10 places among the 39 industries,but dropped far behind in 2005,meanwhile the number of pharmaceutical enterprises who suffered loss increased greatly.CONCLUSION:The prospect for the development of Chinese pharmaceutical industry and the industry environment they confronted are far from optimistic.

On Risk and Return in Domestic Pharmaceutical Industry in China / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE:To establish a reasonable return level for Chinese pharmaceutical industry and to study the return level of the domestic pharmaceutical industry from 2000 to 2005.METHODS:In view of the financial data of Chinese pharmaceutical industry in the statistical yearbook from 2001 to 2006,the return level for Chinese pharmaceutical industry was established based on its risk level using the principle of "risk-return equilibrium",and the rationality of the return level of Chinese pharmaceutical industry over the 6 years was validated as well.RESULTS:Over the 6 years,the average lowest anticipating rate of return for the Chinese medicine industry was 7.72% and the actually average assets income rate stood at 8.53%,i.e.the average abnormal return rate over the 6 years was 0.81%.CONCLUSION:The return rate of Chinese pharmaceutical industry corresponds to the risk level as well as the reasonable return level.
