ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational selection of antibiotics against non-fermentative Gram-negative bacilli in clinic. METHODS:Etiological data of clinical isolated Pseudomonas aeruginosa(PA),Acinetobacter baumanii(AB) and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia(SM)were collected from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University(called"our hospital"for short)during Jan. 2004-Dec. 2016. Drug resistance of them to commonly used antibiotics was analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS:Totally 15 587 strains of PA,7 446 strains of AB and 2 950 strains of SM were detected. Resistance rates of PA to commonly used antibiotics fluctuated but were in a decreasing tendency. Except for imipenem,resistance rates of PA to commonly used antibiotics decreased significantly,and resistance rates of PA to amikacin and gentamicin decreased to 4.60% and 7.48%, respectively. Resistance rates of AB to most commonly used antibiotics were more than 40%,but it was sensitive to tigecycline (drug resistance of 0-4.03%). Resistance rates of SM to cefoperazone sodium and sulbactam sodium increased from 3.03% in 2004 to 39.01% in 2016,but it was sensitive to sulfamethoxazole,minocycline and levofloxacin. CONCLUSIONS:Non-fermentative Gram- negative bacilli detected in our hospital are mainly PA. Resistance rate of PA to most of the antibiotics is declining;drug resistance of AB is severe;resistance rates of SM to cefoperazone sodium and sulbactam sodium show increasing tendency.Above 3 non-fermentative Gram-negative bacilli are sensitive to amikacin,tegocycline and minocycline. Clinical selection should be based on the results of drug sensitivity test.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship of the function and gene polymorphism of insulin receptor substrate (IRS) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and to provide a new perspective for T2DM drug development. METHODS: Relevant literatures included in CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, PubMed, SpringerLink and other databases from Jan. 1991 to Nov. 2017 were retrieved by using "Insulin receptor substrate" "Type 2 diabetes" "Insulin resistance" "Polymorphism" as Chinese keywords, and "Insulin receptor substrate" "IRS" "Type 2 diabetes" "Insulin resistance" "Polymorphism" as English keywords. The relationship of the function and gene polymorphism of IRS family with T2DM was reviewed. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS: A total of 328 literatures were retrieved, of which there were 38 valid literatures. At present, IRS family has six members (IRS-1 to IRS-6). The dysfunction of IRS-1 and IRS-2 will lead to insulin resistance and induce T2DM. The relationship of IRS-3 and IRS-4 with T2DM remains controversial. IRS-5 and IRS-6 were newly found and their functions are not clear. The Gly972Arg mutation of IRS-1 is positively correlated with the pathogenesis of T2DM. Gly1057Asp mutation of IRS-2 combined with obesity can induce insulin resistance, but there is controversy. The mutation types of IRS family other members include Ala94Thr, Ala512Pro and Ser892Gly mutation of IRS-1, ACC, Ala157Thr and Leu647Val mutation of IRS-2. The relationship between these types of mutation and T2DM has not yet been fully supported. Multiracial and large-scale studies are required. Some achievements have been made in the present study, but the study is not yet comprehensive. Relationship of IRS family members and their mutation sites with T2DM still needs to be further tested in the expanded population.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the expression of NOD-like receptor pyrin domain-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b) in pterygium and normal conjunctiva specimens,and clarify the role of NLRP3 in the development of pterygium.Methods Specimens from 20 cases of pterygium and 6 cases of normal eonjunctival were analyzed for establishing the expression of NLRP3 and IL-1b by immune-histochemistry.The level of caspase-1 and pro-caspase-1 protein were analyzed by Westernblot,gene expression of interleukin-18 (IL-18) was detected by RT-PCR.Results NLRP3 was not expressed in normal conjunctival epithelial cells,but was positive in the basal part of pterygium;IL-1was not expressed in normal conjunctival tissues,but was positive in pterygium.There was no significant difference about the expression of Procaspase-1 in normal conjunctiva and pterygium (P ＞ 0.05),However,caspase-1,also known as the active form of pro-caspase-1 expressed in pterygiun was higher than that in normal conjunctiva(P ＜ 0.05).The average level of IL-18 in 20 cases of pterygium was significantly higher than that in normal conjunctiva (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion After NLRP3 signaling pathway activating in pterygium tissue,caspase-1,IL-1β and IL-18 are high expression abnormally,suggest that NLRP3 inflammasome and the related signaling pathways may play a role in the progression of pterygium.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the dosage and consumption sum of opioid analgesic drug in Qingdao district. METH-ODS:The consumption data of drugs in 29 public hospitals at secondary or above level in Qingdao district were analyzed statistical-ly by ABC analytic methods and defined daily dose methods. RESULTS:In ABC analysis,5 kinds of class A drugs accounted for 20% of the total number of species,and the percentage of consumption sum was 77.38%;4 kinds of class B drugs accounted for 16.00% of all species numbers,and the percentage of consumption sum was 11.98%;other 16 kinds of drugs accounted for 64.00% of the total number of species,and the percentage of consumption sum was 10.64%. Oxycodone sustained-release tablets and Morphine sustained-release tablets with the highest DDDs consumed more health care costs,serial number ratio was 1.00,syn-chronization was good and conform to the actual needs of clinical work. CONCLUSIONS:The composition ratio of opioid analge-sic drug costs is consistent with the theoretical value,significant discrepancy between cost and DDDs does not appear.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of sorafenib plus Capecitabine in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS: 20 patients (treatment group) were assigned to take sorafenib 200 mg bid for 3 consecutive weeks plus capecitabine 1 500 mg? m-2?d-1 for l4 days followed by 7 days discontinuation in 3-week treatment cycle. 22 patients in the control group only received Capecitabine 1 500 mg?m-2?d-1 for l4 days followed by 7 days discontinuation in a 3-week treatment cycle. Tumor response was assessed after 2-cycle treatment using modified WHO criteria. RESULTS: In the treatment group and the control group: the median survival times were 10.9 months and 7.2 months, respectively; the median time for tumor progression was 6.8 months and 4.3 months, respectively; the overall response rates were 20.0% and 9.1% respectively; the clinical benefit rates were 70.0% and 40.9%; the ?-foetoprotein (AFP) reduction rates were 65.5% and 39.0%, respectively. The toxicities were not significant between the two groups. CONCLUSION: Sorafenib plus Capecitabine is safe and effective for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma patients.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To discuss the influence of drug price reduction and regulation of purchase on the use of anti-infectives in our hospital.METHODS:The use of anti-infectives in5times of drug price reduction was retrospective anal?ysed.RESULTS:The proportion of the sum of money for consumption of anti-infectives in the total sum for drug consumption dropped year by year but the total DDDc of anti-infectives increased year by year.The DDDs and the total DDDc of all kinds of anti-infectives showed different characteristics.CONCLUSION:The macroscopic price reduction for anti-infectives posi?tively affects the rational use of anti-infectives,yet the effect is limited.Microcosmic regulation of purchase offers an indis?pensable effect.
