Objective:To investigate the application value of abdominal reticular rotation positioning card for subcutaneous injection of fondaparinux sodium in abdominal surgery.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 140 patients who underwent subcutaneous injection of fondaparinux sodium in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from April to October 2019 were collected. There were 74 males and 66 females, aged (58±9)years. Of the 140 patients, 70 cases undergoing routine subcutaneous injection were allocated into control group, and 70 cases undergoing subcutaneous injection with abdominal reticular rotation positioning card were allocated into experimental group. Observation indicators: (1) subcutaneous injection; (2) conditions after subcutaneous injection. Measurement data with normal distribution were expre-ssed as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted by the t test. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data was analyzed using the rank sum test. Results:(1) Subcutaneous injection. There were significant differences in the subcutaneous bleeding and subcutaneous induration between the two groups ( P<0.05). (2) Conditions after subcutaneous injection. There were significant differences in pain degree and nursing satisfaction between the two groups ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the conventional subcutaneous injection, the abdominal reticular rotation positioning card for subcutaneous injection of fondaparinux sodium in abdominal surgery can reduce the rate of subcutaneous bleeding and induration of the patients, relieve the pain of the patients, and improve the satisfaction.

Objective:To compare the accuracy of the needle tip reaching the target tissue between two subcutaneous injection techniques under ultrasound imaging in order to provide a basis for clinical injection to make a safe and reasonable decision.Methods:This was a parallel controlled non-inferiority comparative study. A total of 68 patients who received subcutaneous injections in the outpatient injection room of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University from June 2021 to September 2022 were selected as the research subjects, and they were divided intothe A and B group according to the random number table method, there were 34 cases in each group. Group A received pinched skin injections, and group B received taut skin injections. Unify the injection site, injection needle length, and needle insertion angle. The accuracy rate of the needle tip reaching the target tissue, namely the subcutaneous fat layer, was compared between the two groups by ultrasound imaging, and the pain scores and the imaging performance during the injection process were observed.Results:The accuracy of the needle tip reaching the subcutaneous fat layer in the group A was 97.1%(33/34), which compared with the 100.0%(34/34) in the group B, there was no significant difference ( χ2 = 0.53, P>0.05). There was no significant difference about the distribution of pain scores between the two groups ( χ2 = 0.67, P>0.05). There were no significant differences about age, subcutaneous fat thickness and the distance from the needle tip to the myofascial in patients with different pain scores ( F = 1.20, 0.44, H = 0.64, all P>0.05). Conclusions:Under certain conditions, pinching the skin and tightening the skin have the same accuracy and safety when the needle tip reaches the subcutaneous fat layer of the target tissue, and the choice should be made according to the clinical situation. Imaging observations have enlightening significance for the practice of subcutaneous injection.

Objective:To study the effect of insulin intraperitoneal administration combined with dietary intervention on glycemic regulation in in KKAy mice with spontaneous type 2 diabetes.Methods:An animal model of type 2 diabetes was established, and healthy C57BL/6J mice were selected as the normal control group and healthy KKAy mice as the non-disease group. The successfully modeled KKAy mice were randomly divided into the subcutaneous group, the intraperitoneal group, and the untreated group. The non-disease group was given a maintenance diet, and all other groups were fed a high-fat, high-sugar diet. The daily feeding time was from 08:00 to 20:00, with one feeding at a 4-hour interval, for a total of four times. The subcutaneous and intraperitoneal groups were given subcutaneous and intraperitoneal insulin injections before feeding, and recombinant glargine insulin injection (subcutaneous group: 0.125 IU/g; intraperitoneal group: 0.250 IU/g) was injected before the first feeding, and biosynthetic human insulin injection (subcutaneous group: 0.075 IU/g; intraperitoneal group: 0.125 IU/g) was injected after a 0.5 h interval; the rest 3 times before feeding, the biosynthetic human insulin injection (subcutaneous group: 0.075 IU/g; intraperitoneal group: 0.125 IU/g) was injected for 4 weeks. The dietary intake, body mass, fasting blood glucose, and 1 and 2 h postprandial blood glucose of mice in each group were tested regularly, and an oral glucose tolerance test was performed.Results:The total dietary intake of mice in the intraperitoneal group was lower than that in the subcutaneous group. Compared with the initial body mass, the body mass of the mice in the subcutaneous and intraperitoneal groups decreased by 5.05 and 3.59 g at week 4, respectively. The changes of fasting blood glucose in the subcutaneous and intraperitoneal groups ranged from 5.4 to 9.4 and 5.4 to 6.4 mmol/L, respectively, and the changes of 1 h postprandial blood glucose ranged from 4.6 to 12.3 and 5.7 to 8.9 mmol/L, respectively, and the changes of 2 h postprandial blood glucose ranged from 2.5 to 9.8 and 3.8 to 7.1 mmol/L, respectively. For the glucose tolerance index, the intraperitoneal group showed improvement at all time points, and the subcutaneous group showed a decrease at all time points except for 0 and 60 min.Conclusions:In combination with dietary intervention, insulin intraperitoneal injection was more effective in controlling blood glucose in KKAy mice with spontaneous type 2 diabetes compared with subcutaneous insulin injection, and had a significant improvement in glucose tolerance.

Background: The efficacy and safety of continuous subcutaneous injection (CSCI) of hydromorphone hydrochloride (HM) for titration of moderate to severe cancer pain have yet to be evaluated. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the patients underwent CSCI of HM from Feb. 2020 to Oct. 2021 in Kitano Hospital, Osaka, Japan. The concentration of HM was 0.20 mg/ml to 1.0 mg/ml in saline depending on the patient. Haloperidol was added to a concentration of 0.5 mg/ml for a total of 10 ml. CSCI was performed using a portable small syringe driver. The dose was titrated between 0.05 ml/h and 1.0 ml/h to achieve adequate relief of pain without unacceptable side effects. Results: A total of 37 patients including 1 opioid-naive patient were examined. The median dose of HM at the initiation and completion of titration was 1.92 and 2.40 mg/day, respectively. The median time to titration completion was 2 days. Titration completion rate within 3 days was observed in 33 patients (89%). Remarkable effect to pain (at least 66% improvement in numerical rating scale [NRS]) was observed in 33 patients (89%), efficacy (33 to 66% improvement in NRS) in 3 patients (8.1%), and inefficacy in 1 patient (2.7%). Adverse events included Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Grade 2 drowsiness in 3 patients (8.1%) and Grade 2 hypotension in 1 patient (2.7%), both of which improved with reduction or discontinuation of HM. Conclusion: CSCI of HM was simple and safe, and produced rapid and effective pain control for moderate to severe cancer pain.

La estrongiloidiasis es una enfermedad causada por el nematodo Strongyloides stercoralis, endémico en las regiones rurales de los países tropicales y subtropicales. Los pacientes inmunosuprimidos tienen un mayor riesgo de infección con este parásito y pueden terminar desarrollando un síndrome de hiperinfección que conlleva un alto riesgo de muerte. En el tratamiento se utiliza la ivermectina, pero, ni en Colombia ni en el mundo, existe una presentación parenteral del medicamento para uso en humanos, lo cual es un problema en aquellos pacientes que puedan tener comprometida la absorción intestinal, como es el caso de aquellos con obstrucciones intestinales. Se reporta el caso de un síndrome de hiperinfección por S. stercoralis en Colombia tratado con ivermectina subcutánea; la idea al presentarlo es incentivar los estudios de farmacocinética y farmacodinamia que analicen esta vía de administración como alternativa para el tratamiento de pacientes con riesgo de fracaso terapéutico con la vía oral.
Strongyloidiasis is a disease caused by the nematode Strongyloides stercoralis that is endemic in rural regions in tropical and subtropical countries. Immunosuppressed patients have an increased risk of infection by this parasite and are at risk of developing a hyperinfection syndrome which involves a higher risk of death. The syndrome is treated with ivermectin, however, there is no parenteral presentation of this medication for human use in Colombia or the world, which is an important problem in patients who have compromised enteral absorption, for instance, those with intestinal obstructions. We present a case of hyperinfection syndrome by Strongyloides stercoralis in Colombia, which was treated with subcutaneous ivermectin. Our purpose is to encourage pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies to establish this route of administration in the future as an alternative for those patients who have a high risk of therapeutic failure with the oral route.

Introduction: Antiepileptic drugs were occasionally administered to manage seizures in terminally-ill cancer patients. When enteral route is no longer feasible due to dysphagia or depressed level of consciousness, subcutaneous route could be an option. We reported three cases of terminally cancer patients who received subcutaneous levetiracetam (LEV) due to an inability to administer via intravenous route. Cases: The age of 3 cases was 83, 75, 82 years, respectively. In all cases, the prognosis prediction at the start of subcutaneous LEV was about 1 month. In all cases, the route of administration of LEV was changed from intravenous to subcutaneous. No exacerbation of convulsions, or injection site reaction was confirmed after subcutaneous LEV administration. Discussion: We believe that subcutaneous LEV administration may be one of the treatment options for seizures in patients with terminal cancer for whom intravenous administration of LEV is no longer feasible.

La inyección subcutánea o intramuscular de mercurio elemental, sea accidental o intencional, es una forma poco frecuente de intoxicación. Presentamos el caso de un hombre de 22 años de edad, con antecedentes de rasgos psicóticos y lesiones autolíticas, que se inyectó mercurio elemental en el tejido celular subcutáneo del cuello, tórax y abdomen, tres meses antes de su internación. Las áreas afectadas fueron localizadas mediante el examen físico, radiografías y tomografías. Se realizó el dosaje de mercurio en sangre y orina. Se resecó quirúrgicamente el mercurio de las zonas comprometidas. La detección y remoción precoz del mercurio, mediante cirugía y eventual quelación, es necesaria para prevenir complicaciones a corto y largo plazo.
Accidental or intentional subcutaneous or intramuscular injection of metallic mercury is an uncommon form of intoxication. We present the case of a 22 year-old man, who had psychotic disorders and autoaggressive behavior, with a preceding history of self-injection of mercury into the soft tissues of the neck, thorax and abdomen. Clinical examination, radiographs, and computed tomography showed the affected area. Mercury was measured in blood and urine. The mercury was surgically resected from the affected areas. Early detection and removal of mercury from the body by physical removal or chelation is required to prevent short- and long-term toxicity.

Résumé
In this study, we aim to determine the in vivo effect of human umbilical cord blood-derived multipotent stem cells (hUCB-MSCs) on neuropathic pain, using three, principal peripheral neuropathic pain models. Four weeks after hUCB-MSC transplantation, we observed significant antinociceptive effect in hUCB-MSC–transplanted rats compared to that in the vehicle-treated control. Spinal cord cells positive for c-fos, CGRP, p-ERK, p-p 38, MMP-9 and MMP 2 were significantly decreased in only CCI model of hUCB-MSCs-grafted rats, while spinal cord cells positive for CGRP, p-ERK and MMP-2 significantly decreased in SNL model of hUCB-MSCs-grafted rats and spinal cord cells positive for CGRP and MMP-2 significantly decreased in SNI model of hUCB-MSCs-grafted rats, compared to the control 4 weeks or 8weeks after transplantation (p<0.05). However, cells positive for TIMP-2, an endogenous tissue inhibitor of MMP-2, were significantly increased in SNL and SNI models of hUCB-MSCs-grafted rats. Taken together, subcutaneous injection of hUCB-MSCs may have an antinociceptive effect via modulation of pain signaling during pain signal processing within the nervous system, especially for CCI model. Thus, subcutaneous administration of hUCB-MSCs might be beneficial for improving those patients suffering from neuropathic pain by decreasing neuropathic pain activation factors, while increasing neuropathic pain inhibition factor.

BACKGROUND: The subcutaneous formulation of biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) was preferred due to favored self-administration and would be an economical treatment option for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. This study was to compare the economic impact of biologic DMARDs administered by subcutaneous injection in patients with rheumatoid arthritis who had inadequate response to conventional DMARDs. METHODS: The cost-minimization analysis was conducted to estimate the lifetime health care costs of treatment sequences with subcutaneous biologic DMARDs as first-line therapy from a health care system perspective. The Markov model was developed to represent the transitions through treatment sequences based on American College of Rheumatology response rate and discontinuation rate. The health care costs comprised the cost of medications, administration, dispensing, outpatient visits, test/diagnostic examination, palliative therapy and treatment of serious infection. All costs were expressed in 2016 Korean Won (KRW) and discounted at 5%. RESULTS: The mean lifetime health care cost per patient was lowest in the etanercept sequence, which was estimated at KRW 63,441,679. The incremental costs of the treatment sequence started with adalimumab, golimumab, abatacept, and tocilizumab were KRW 7,985,730, KRW 4,064,669, KRW 2,869,947, and KRW 4,282,833, respectively, relative to etanercept sequence. These differences in costs mainly were attributable to medication costs. One-way and probabilistic sensitivity analyses confirmed that etanercept represented the option with the lowest cost compared with comparators. CONCLUSION: This study found that etanercept is likely a cost-saving treatment option among subcutaneous biologic DMARDs in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Objective To evaluate the diffuse characteristics of two types of botulinum toxin type A (BOTOX and CBTX A) in the forehead and the effect of intradermal (ID) and subcutanous (SC) infections on their diffusion.Methods Healthy volunteers (n =20) were recruited to receive a 0.05 ml (2 U) injection of botulinum toxin type A at four forehead sites [both sides of medial forehead (SC) and temporal forehead (ID)],one side for BOTOX and another for CBTX-A.On day 14,the Minors' iodine starch test was performed and photographs were taken for calculating the area and dimensions of anhydrotic area.Results The areas of anhidrosis ID were significantly greater with CBTX-A (180±15) mm2 than that of BOTOX (144±14) mm2.The same conditions occurred in vertical dimensions (14.4±1.1) mm vs.(15.8±1.0) mm and horizontal dimensions (10.8±0.6) mm vs.(12.5±0.7) mm.There was significant variation between the both for diffuseness in the two anhidrotic halos observed after ID injection (P<0.05).The areas of anhidrosis by SC were significantly greater with CBTX-A (207±17) mm2 than that in BOTOX (183±18) mm2.The mean horizontal dimension was greater with CBTX-A by SC (13.2±0.6) mm than that of BOTOX by SC (12.2±0.7) mm,but not statistically significant (P =0.06).The mean horizontal dimension in BOTOX was significantly greater with SC than that with ID (P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between SC and ID administration of CBTX-A.Conclusions BOTOX diffuses less than CBTX-A.ID injection technique may result in less diffusion than SC.
Résumé
La experimentación en modelos animales es una herramienta importante para comprender los mecanismos fisiopatológicos que caracterizan la diabetes mellitus. Dado que es necesario conocer la implicación de cada variante seleccionada en la concepción del modelo de diabetes a utilizar, en este caso de hiperglucemias moderadas, proponemos evaluar en ratas adultas el efecto de la administración neonatal (subcutánea o intraperitoneal) de estreptozotocina (STZ) sobre su estado metabólico y oxidativo. Se indujo diabetes en gazapos hembras de dos días de nacidos mediante la inoculación de 100 mg/Kg de peso corporal de STZ. Los grupos, de 10 animales cada uno, se definieron según la vía de inoculación subcutánea (SC) o intraperitoneal (IP). Los neonatos designados como controles recibieron (SC o IP) únicamente vehículo. El fenotipo se manifestó a las 6 semanas de vida en ambos grupos. El grupe STZ SC mostró un promedio semanal de glucemias significativamente mayor y un peor control glucémico durante el experimento, reflejado por los valores de hemoglobina glicosilada. A las 12 semanas se realizó la eutanasia y se estudiaron indicadores del perfil renal, lipídico y estrés oxidativo. En los grupos tratados con STZ, respecto a los tratados solamente con vehículo, no existen diferencias significativas en el lipidograma y uricemia; únicamente la creatininemia y la uremia son significativamente mayores en STZ SC vs. CONTROL SC y STZ IP. El análisis estadístico de los parámetros del estado oxidativo [malonildialdehído (MDA) y productos avanzados de la oxidación a proteínas (PAOP)] no muestra diferencias entre los grupos estudiados. Se concluye que, si bien por ambas vías de inducción se logra instaurar el modelo deseado, desde el punto de vista metabólico los animales en los que se utilizó la vía SC el fenotipo se manifiesta con mayor similitud a lo que ocurre en el síndrome diabético humano, fundamentalmente en lo referido a los parámetros de la función renal.

Animal experimentation is an important tool for understanding the pathophysiological mechanisms characterizing diabetes mellitus type 2 (DMT2). Based on the fact that it is necessary to know the implication of each variant selected in DMT2 models, in this case of moderate hyperglycemias, we propose to evaluate the metabolic and oxidative stress status in adult rats after neonatal [subcutaneous (SC) or intraperitoneal (IP)] administration of streptozotocin (STZ). Thus, DMT2 was induced by either SC or IP injection of 100 mg/Kgbody weight of streptozotocin (STZ) in 2 day-old rat female offsprings. Neonates designated as controls received only vehicle in a similar schedule. Groups of 10 animals were defined by the route of injection (SC or IP). Hyperglycemia developed at 6 weeks of life in both experimental groups; however, rats from the group receiving STZ SC displayed a significantly higher weekly average of blood glucose levels and a poorer glycemic control during the experiment (indicated by the peripheral glycosylated hemoglobin levels). At 12 weeks of age, euthanasia was performed, and indicators of kidney function, peripheral lipid profile and oxidative stress parameters were studied. In STZ-treated rats, there were no significant differences in circulating concentrations of lipids, uric acid, MDA and PAOP, compared with controls. Interestingly, peripheral creatinine and urea concentrations were significantly higher in STZ SC-treated rats than in both CONTROL SC and STZ IP rats. We conclude that, although the DMT2 phenotype could be obtained by neonatal STZ administration by either route, the phenotype developed by animals inoculated with STZ by the SC route was more similar to that occurring in the human diabetic syndrome, mainly as regards renal function parameters.

Objective To evaluate the effect of injection duration on bruising and pain after the subcutaneous injection of heparin.Methods The relevant randomized controlled trials,quasi-randomized controlled trials about subcutaneous heparin injection duration of ≥30 s and ≤ 10 s were searched in the databases of CNKI,CBM,VIP Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals,PubMed,Highwire,ScienceDirect,Chinese Cochrane Library,Wanfang database and Google.The quality of RCTs was assessed and Metaanalysis was conducted by RevMan 5.0 Software.Results Twelve RCTs involving 1 986 injections were included.The results of Meta-analysis showed that:There was significant difference between the two groups in the occurrence of bruising.The injection duration of 30 s was much better to prevent bruising.Statistical differences existed in pain intensity between the two groups.Conclusions Prolonging the injection duration to 30 s may reduce the occurrence of subcutaneous bruising.There is no enough evidence to draw a conclusion on pain intensity.Adequately,the current study is limited to a small sample,powered and high quality randomized controlled trials are still needed to be conducted.
