Vancomycin-related convulsion in a pediatric patient with neuroblastoma: A case report and review of the literature.

Background: Vancomycin is often used as an anti-infective drug in patients receiving anti-tumor chemotherapy. There are concerns about its adverse drug reactions during treatment, such as nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, hypersensitivity reactions, However, potential convulsion related to high plasma concentrations of vancomycin in children receiving chemotherapy has not been reported.

Case Summary: A 3.

Population pharmacokinetics and initial dosing regimen optimization of cyclosporin in pediatric hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis patients.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is induced by various triggers, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune diseases, lymphoma or other malignancies. Cyclosporin is one of the clinical treatments for HLH. However, cyclosporin has considerable inter- and intra-individual variabilities in pharmacokinetics and also displays a narrow therapeutic window, making it difficult to define an optimal dose for HLH treatment.

Traditional Chinese medicine's intervention in endothelial nitric oxide synthase activation and nitric oxide synthesis in cardiovascular system.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the most dangerous diseases which has become a major cause of human death. Many researches evidenced that nitric oxide (NO)/endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) system plays a significant role in the occurrence and development of CVD. NO, an important signaling molecule, closely associated with the regulation of vasodilatation, blood rheology, blood clotting and other physiological and pathological processes.
