ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the level and influential factors for out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditure regarding Hunan Provincial Urban Employee Basic Medical Insurance (UEBMI) and to provide evidence for improvement of medical insurance payment system. @*METHODS@#Stratified random sampling method was used to obtain 10 527 records of cancer inpatients from January 2011 to December 2014. Social demographic and expenditure information were collected from UEBMI information system. The proportion of OOP expenditure for inpatient and each part of the cost was described. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze main related factors of OOP expenditure. @*RESULTS@#The median proportion of OOP for inpatients costs was 20.11%, and remained stable from 2011 to 2014. The main related factors for OOP expenditure were age, civil servant, retirment status, hospital level, cost of hospitalization, hospitalization duration, medicine cost, proportion of general medical service charges, treatment cost, expenses of examination and laboratory test, and cancer type. @*CONCLUSION@#OOP expenditure among UEBMI cancer inpatients was under control and stable. The level can well reflect the policy preferences. It could be further improved through the control of related factors, particularly the hospital level.

Objective To observe the long-term toxicity of Jiuxin Fumai Injection and to investigate the safety of clinical medication.Methods The rats were given intramuscular injection with Jiuxin Fumai Injection in large,medium,small dosage(respectively 20,10,5g? kg-1)every day for two weeks,and normal saline group served as the normal control.Two weeks after drug withdrawal,the toxic reaction in rats was observed.Results After two-week continuous administration,all the animals were alive.Some animals were vomiting and getting excited when administered the large dosage and medium dosage injection.The blood sugar elevated,the thoracic gland coefficient lowered,the hepatic cells were cloudily swollen in the animals of large dosage group.Two weeks after drug withdrawal,the above phenomenon vanished.There was no obvious toxic reaction in the small-dosage injection group.Conclusion Long-term administration of Jiuxin Fumai Injection in large dosage shows certain toxic reaction in rats.The safe dosage for intramuscular administration is less than 5 g? kg-1? d-1.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the clinical effects and main pharmacological actions of Pingantongluo Granules (Radix Paeoniae Alba, Rhizoma Gastrodiae, Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae, Rhizoma Chuanxiong, Concha Haliotidis, etc.) for migraine with liver wind and blood stasis symptom. Methods: Randomized controlled trail, double blind and double dummy method were applied. Yuntongding Tablets was used as a control drug in clinical investigation and Routunding Tablets as a control drug in pharmacological experiment study. Results: The total effective rates of the treatment group and the control group were 95.0% and 83.3% for migraine and 80.0% and 61.6% for the liver wind and blood stasis symptom, respectively. Pinggantongluo Granules began to act on migraine in ( 11.75 ? 6.70 )h, and the control drug did in ( 18.30 ? 8.22 )h. There were a significant difference between two groups ( P
