Objective To investigate the effects of different concentrations of PPF on oxidative stress and apoptosis of PD model cells induced by MPP+.Methods The human neuroblastoma cell SH-SY5Y was induced by 1 mM MPP+ to establish PD cell model.In PPF treatment group,SH-SY5Y cells were stimulated with 10,20,40 and 80 μM PPF for 4 h before MPP+ induction.Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)was performed to evaluate cell proliferation activity.H2DCF-DA fluorescent probe was used to detect ROS in cells.The levels of MDA and NADPH oxidase were analyzed by the kit.Western blot examined the protein expression of cytochrome c in mitochondria and cytoplasm,as well as the relative expression of Bcl-2,Bax and cleaved caspase-3 in SH-SY5Y cells.Apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow cytometry.Results MPP+ significantly inhibited the proliferation of SH-SY5Y cells(P<0.001),promoted the level of ROS(P<0.001),MDA(P<0.001),NADPH oxidase(P<0.01),cytochrome c in cytoplasm(P<0.01)and induced apoptosis(P<0.001)and the relative expression of pro-apoptosis protein Bax and cleaved caspase-3(P<0.01),reduced cytochrome c protein in mitochondria(P<0.01)and the relative expression of anti-apoptosis protein(P<0.01).PPF pretreatment alleviated the proliferation inhibition,oxidative stress and apoptosis promotion of SH-SY5Y cells induced by MPP+(P<0.001),and the effects of 40 μM and 80 μM on cells were more significant.Conclusion PPF pretreatment can alleviate the oxidative stress of SH-SY5Y cells induced by MMP+ and reduce apoptosis rate.
RESUMEN
Objective:To observe the occurrence of medication deviation in elderly patients with chronic diseases, and analyze the related factors leading to its occurrence.Methods:Convenience sampling method was used to select 164 elderly patients with chronic diseases who were discharged from the hospital after treatment from April 2021 to March 2022 as the study subjects.The pharmacists reviewed the patient's discharge medication and counted the occurrence of medication deviation.The patients were divided into the occurrence group and the non-occurrence group, and the relevant data of the two groups and their attending physicians were analyzed and compared. Logistic regression analysis was used to test the influencing factors of medication deviation in elderly patients with chronic diseases. Results:Medication deviation were identified in 110 of the 164 patients, and the incidence of medication deviation was 67.1%.Compared with the non-occurrence group, the number of diseases, discharge prescriptions of patients were more, the differences were statistically significant( Z=2.552, t=3.063, both P<0.05). The age of attending physicians in the occurrence group were younger, and their working years were shorter, professional title was lower compared with those in the non-occurrence group( Z=3.754, 3.713, Z=2.016, P<0.05 for all); Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of diseases and discharge prescriptions were the risk factors for medication deviation in elderly patients with chronic diseases( OR=1.260, 1.227, both P<0.05); older age and longer working years of attending physicians were the protective factors for medication deviation( OR=0.925, 0.930, both P<0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of medication deviation in elderly patients with chronic diseases in our hospital is high.Number of chronic diseases, discharge prescriptions, younger age and relatively shorter working years of attending physicians may lead to medication deviation.
RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo summarize the modeling methods, test indicators, and evaluation methods of the animal models of urticaria and provide a basis for the subsequent research on urticaria models. MethodWith the keywords of "urticaria" and "animal model" and the time interval from inception to July 13, 2022, relevant articles were retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, CBM, Web of Science, Embase, and PubMed. Two evaluators independently screened the articles and extracted the publishing time, sources, animal conditions, modeling methods, modeling time, and test indicators from the articles meeting the inclusion criteria to establish a data library for quantitative statistics and analysis. ResultA total of 116 articles were included, involving 129 animal experiments (102 in Chinese and 27 in English) of urticaria. In the last three years, the studies about the animal models of urticaria presented an obvious upward trend, and the articles were dominated by dissertations. KM mice and SD rats of both females and males were mainly used for the modeling of urticaria, and the models were mainly established by passive sensitization of skin for 14-16 days. The models were mainly evaluated based on apparent indicators such as blue-stained lesion area and ear swelling, supplemented by the pathological indicators of the skin and serum. ConclusionAlthough the experimental studies of urticaria are increasing, the modeling methods lack unified modeling standards and have low coincidence with clinical symptoms. Therefore, this paper analyzed the modeling elements and evaluation criteria of urticaria animal models, and proposed that both male and female KM mice (6-8 weeks old) or SD rats (8-10 weeks old) of SPF grade should be preferentially selected for modeling. Active and passive sensitization can be combined for the modeling, and the specific modeling elements such as modeling time and sensitization times need to be further explored. The model evaluation should include four aspects of behavior, appearance, pathology, and immunity.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and nephrotoxicity of high-dosepolymyxin B (PMB) in treatment of patients with multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (MDR-GNB) infections.Methods:Clinical data of 90 patients with MDR-GNB infections who admitted to the Affiliated Huaian First People′s Hospital from January 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Thirty one patients receivedhigh-dose PMB(≥25 000 U·kg?1·d?1) for treatment (high-dose group) and 59 patients received standard-dose PMB(<25 000 U·kg?1·d?1) for treatment (control group). The curative effect and renal function of the two groups were compared. The factors related toacute kidney injury (AKI) were analyzed with logistic regression.Results:The daily PMB dose and treatment course in high-dose group were (29 800±4 500) U/kg and (9.16±4.15) d, while those of the control group were (17 300±3 500)U/kg and (7.32±3.87) d ( P<0.01). The effective rate of the high-dose group was higher than that of control group (83.9% vs. 61.0%, χ2=4.95, P<0.05).The creatinine levels in high-dose group were increased significantly from 69.40(47.00, 94.70)μmol/L before treatment to 116.20(59.20, 213.20)μmol/L after treatment ( Z=-2.99, P<0.01); while there were no significant changesin control group before and after treatment [55.00(37.00, 92.47)μmol/L vs. 50.10(34.00, 156.00)μmol/L, Z=-1.78, P=0.78]. The 30-day mortality rate in the high-dose group was 32.3% (10/31), that in the standard-dose group was 49.2% (29/59)(χ2=2.36, P=0.12). The AKI incidence rate in high-dose group was higher than that in standard-dose group [ 67.7% (21/31) vs. 45.8% (27/59), χ2=3.94, P=0.04]. There were 4 and 10 deaths due to AKI in the high-dose and standard-dose groups, respectively (χ2=0.25, P=0.61). Logistic regression analysis showed that daily high-dose PMB was independently associated with AKI( OR=2.662, 95% CI:1.082-6.549, P=0.03). Conclusion:Thehigh-dose PMB is effective in treatment of patients with multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteriainfections, but the incidence of AKI is also significantly increased. Therefore, when using daily high-dose PMB, the pros and cons must be weighed to avoid increasing the risk of AKI.

Objective:To investigate the effect of pharmaceutical care intervention by clinical pharmacists on inhalant use in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods:A total of 140 elderly patients with COPD were randomly divided into the control group( n=70, receiving conventional medicine education)and the study group(n=70, receiving the whole pharmaceutical care intervention as add-on to the treatment for control group for 6 months). The knowledge of inhalant medication, inhalant operation score, incorrect operation rate, disease symptom score and pulmonary function were compared between the two groups. Results:Compared with pretreatment, the scores of inhalant knowledge were increased significantly in both groups after treatment.While, the scores in the pharmacology, usage, precautions, and adverse reactions as well as total scores were higher in the study group than in the control group( t=5.905, 7.064, 5.356, 5.211 and 19.600, all P<0.05). The inhalant operation scores were significantly increased with time in both groups( F time=64.259, P<0.05). The increment of inhalant operation score was higher in the study group than in the control group(F time×group=5.237, P<0.05). The overall score of inhalant operation was higher in the study group than in the control group( F group=7.218, P<0.05). The incorrect operation rate was lower in the study group than in the control group(5.7% or 4/70 vs.18.6% or 13/70, χ2=5.423, P=0.020). The scores of cough, expectoration and asthma were lower in study group than in the control group( t=11.602, 9.282 and 11.225, respectively, P<0.05). The percentage of the first second force expiratory volume to the estimated value(FEV1%)and FEV 1/forced vital capacity(FVC) were higher in the study group than in the control group( t=4.049 and 3.148, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Pharmaceutical care intervention improves patients' awareness of COPD, increases the accuracy and compliance of inhalant use, thus alleviates the clinical symptoms and improves lung function.

RESUMEN
Smoking and exposure to second hand smoke are the deadly killer of human health. Tobacco kills more than one million people each year in China. According to 2015 Chinese adult tobacco survey, the number of smokers in China increased by 15 million during five years, from 301 million in 2010 to 316 million in 2015. Smoking addiction is a chronic recurrent disease, and its pathogenesis is associated with the mesolimbic dopamine system. In recent years, domestic and overseas scholars studied the brain function of smoking addicts through resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and found that the brain functional activity of smoking addicts has changed. fMRI can help us understand the mechanism of tobacco dependence, and provide the evidence of diagnosis, treatment and health management of tobacco dependence. In this paper, the present study situation and the application in the field of the treatment and management of smoking cessation of fMRI in smoking addicts are reviewed.

RESUMEN
Objective: To observe the therapeutic efficacy of astragalus polysaccharide (APS) in combination with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) for elderly patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: A total of 80 elderly patients with I~IV stage NSCLC were randomly divided into two groups. The 40 patients in the therapeutic group received radiotherapy in combination with APS. The 40 patients in the control group received radiotherapy alone. Both groups received 3D-CRT with a total dose of 50~ 70Gy, 2.0Gy/fraction, once a day, 5 times per week. The patients in the therapeutic group were treated with radiotherapy combined with injection of APS (250mg in 5% glucose) or normal saline (500 mL) intravenously once a day until the end of radiotherapy. The short-term efficacy and patients' quality of life were evaluated. The T-lymphocyte subpopulation and peripheral blood leukocyte count were also measured after treatment. Results: The short-term effective rates of the therapeutic group and the control group were 87.5% and 72.5%, respectively, without significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). The decrease of peripheral blood leukocyte count after treatment in the control group was significant (P<0.05). In the therapeutic group, the T-lymphocyte subsets CD8 and CD4/CD8 were improved after treatment, with a significant difference (P< 0.05). But in the control group, no significant changes in T-lymphocyte subsets CD8 and CD4/CD8 were observed after treatment (P>0.05). Patients' quality of life in the therapeutic group was superior to that in the control group, with a significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion: APS in combination with 3D-CRT can reduce the side effects of radiation and improve the quality of life of elderly patients with NSCLC.

Objective To evaluate the clinical utility of CMV pp65 antigenemia by CMV brite Kit for predicting active/reactive CMV infection S as well as of CMV diseases in bone marrow or peripheral stem cell transplant patients. We also investigated the efficacy of preemptive therapy guided by detection of CMV antigenemia. Methods A total of 210 EDTA anticoagulant plasma samples from 36 bone marrow or Peripheral Stem Cell Transplant Patients were prospectively collected from September 1999 to April 2000. The specific CMV antibody IgG/IgM of all patients were detected by ELISA. We detected CMV pp65 antigenemia by indirect immunofluorescence assay using CMV Brite Kit. All blood samples were detected weekly from week 3 after bone marrow transplantation until 100 days or antigenemia turning negative/dischage or death. Ganciclovir preemptive therapy was initiated at first positive pp65 antigenemia. Results Of 36 bone marrow or Peripheral Stem Cell Transplant Patients, 16 patients occurred positive pp65 antigenemia, 15 patients suffered from symptomatic CMV infections or CMV diseases. In 14 patients of positive pp65 antigenemia receiving gaciclovir therapy at first antigenemia, 2 patients died (mortality rate 14.2%), 12 patients of pp65 antigenemia became negative. Otherwise, 2 untreated cases died. The study showed a significant difference in mortality rate between treated and untreated patients (P
