Analysis of fever and drug-induced liver injury in 63 patients with severe drug eruptions / 中华皮肤科杂志

Objective:To investigate characteristics of fever and drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in inpatients with severe drug eruptions.Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out on clinical data collected from 63 inpatients with severe drug eruptions from June 2007 to June 2020, and their characteristics of fever and DILI were investigated. Two-independent-sample t test or Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for intergroup comparison of measurement data, and intergroup comparison of enumeration data was performed using chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test. Results:Among the 63 patients with severe drug eruptions, 54 developed fever; low, moderate and high/ultra-high fever all occurred in about one third of the patients; of 17 patients with high/ultra-high fever, 16 sufferred from Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) , toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) or drug hypersensitivity syndrome (DHS) ; 45 had irregular fever; fever duration ranged from 1 to 14 days in 51 patients; there were no significant differences in the fever grade or duration among the patients with different clinical types of drug eruptions ( P = 0.303, 0.719, respectively) ; rashes occurred earlier than or at the same time as fever in 92.59% of the patients. DILI occurred in 11 patients, 8 of whom had hepatocellular injury at admission, including 5 with DHS, 2 with SJS and 1 with TEN; 6 patients were accompanied by low, moderate or high fever, with the fever duration being 7.33 ± 4.97 days, and they all had grade 1 liver injury; liver function retesting at discharge showed complete recovery in 5 patients, improvement in 1, as well as conversion from hepatocellular injury to mixed liver injury in 1, and 1 patient did not undergo the liver function retesting due to against-medical-advice discharge. The other 3 patients had cholestatic liver injury, all of whom were diagnosed with DHS and accompanied by high or ultra-high fever, wtih the fever duration being 8.33 ± 3.51 days, and 1 patient had grade 4 liver injury (acute liver failure) ; liver function was improved in all the 3 patients at discharge. Conclusions:Patients with severe drug eruptions are prone to be accompanied by various types of fever, irregular fever is more common, fever usually lasts 2 weeks, and rashes often occur earlier than or at the same time as fever. DILI can occur in patients with severe drug eruptions, and is usually accompanied by fever; hepatocellular injury is more common, and prone to be improved rapidly; cholestatic liver injury is characterized by severe clinical symptoms and a long disease course, and most frequently occurs in patients with DHS.

Exploration and Practice of Drug Abuse Monitoring in Medical Institutions / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE： To explore the method for the development and implementation of drug abuse monitoring in medical institutions， and to provide reference for drug abuse monitoring in medical institutions. METHODS： Our hospital （the affiliated hospital of Binzhou medical college） had established the corresponding drug abuse monitoring mode from the two aspects of real-time monitoring and retrospective analysis， supplemented by relevant management measures， defined the content of drug abuse monitoring in medical institutions， and finally evaluated the implementation effect through the effective reporting quantity of drug abuse information， etc. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS： The main contents of drug abuse monitoring in our hospital included the establishment of drug abuse monitoring management group， the improvement of drug abuse monitoring system and the sorting out of drug monitoring catalogue； the real-time drug abuse monitoring mode was established through timely reporting drug abuse information by medical， nursing and pharmaceutical personnel in daily diagnosis and treatment activities； at the same time， the retrospective analysis model of drug abuse was established by analyzing the relevant drug use data regularly through the hospital information system， paying attention to the key groups of key departments， and mining drug abuse information； a series of auxiliary management measures were taken， such as strengthening training and publicity， and establishing reward and punishment mechanism. Since the monitoring work was started in 2016， the effective number of drug abuse information reported in 2016-2018 was 38， 126 and 237 respectively， and through the monitoring， it was found that the elderly women over 60 years old （69.83％） were abusing in iatrogenic sedative hypnotic drugs. The development of drug abuse monitoring in hospital can collect drug abuse status， behavior characteristics and relevant information timely and effectively， analyze local drug abuse trends， find drug abuse risks， and provide basis for drug control of narcotics and psychotropic substances supervision.

Preparation of acellular nerve matrix using Trito X-100 and sodium deoxycholate as extracting agent: Is there an optimal time? / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND: Compared to other preparation method, chemical extraction can almost removed all cellular components,reduce the possibility of immunological rejection, and remain the integrality of nerve graft. However, there are still problems need to be explored.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the optimal condition of acellular nerve graft using Trito X-100 and sodium deoxycholate as extracting agent.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Randomized grouping, controlled cytology observation. The experiment was performed at the Department of Stomatology, Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical University, from February to June 2009.MATERIALS: Fifteen New Zealand white rabbits, aged 3-4 months, weighing 2.5-3.0 kg. Triton X-100 and sodium deoxycholate were provided by Sigma Company, USA.METHODS: The bilateral facial nerve were obtained from rabbits, and removed the adipose tissue and epineurium of the nerve surface under the surgery microscope, then divided these nerves into 66 segments, with each length of 10 mm. The 66 neurons were randomly divided into 11 groups, with 6 neurons in each group. Except the control group, all neurons were placed into Petri dish for 12 hours bathing using distilled water at room temperature, then 5 groups of which were cultured with Triton X-100 for 12,24, 36, 48, and 60 hours, oscillation at room temperature; the remained 5 groups were cultured with 3% Triton X-100 for 12 hours,followed by 4% sodium deoxycholate for 12 hours, repeated for 1-5 cycles.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Haematoxylin-eosin staining; degrees of decellularization and integrality of fiber pipe.RESULTS: Only use Triton X-100 to deal with the nerve of New Zealand white rabbits, even if 60 hours, could not to remove all the cellular components, and the basement membrane of Schwann cells were greatly destroyed. After 2 cycles treatment of Trito X-100 combined with sodium deoxycholate, cellular components and myelin sheath of nerve fibers and axons were removed effectively, and basement membrane of Schwann cell was remained, with epineurium and perineurium could be seen.CONCLUSION: Oscillation accompanied by 2 cycles treatment of Trito X-100 and sodium deoxycholate can obtain acellular nerve graft by removing cellular components completely, and reserving integrated basement membrane of Schwann cells.
