Clinical Effect of Doxycycline Combined with Compound Sulfamethoxazole and Rifampicin in the Treatment of Brucellosis Spondylitis.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical value of triple antibiotic therapy consisting of doxycycline, compound sulfamethoxazole and rifampicin in the treatment of brucellosis spondylitis.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 100 patients with brucellosis spondylitis admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University from March 2016 to June 2019. Patients were divided into the following two groups: the control group (n = 50) treated with dual antibiotic therapy (rifampicin + compound sulfamethoxazole), and the observation group (n = 50) treated with triple antibiotic therapy (rifampicin + doxycycline + compound sulfamethoxazole).

[Effect of Guanfu Base A in patients with ventricular arrhythmias].

Objective: To investigate the effect and safety of intravenous Guanfu Base A hydrochloride (GFA) in the treatment of ventricular arrhythmias.

Methods: Patients without severe structural heart disease presenting with equal or more than 150 premature ventricular contractions per hour and/or non sustained ventricular tachycardia in drug-free holter monitoring were recruited in this double blind randomized active-controlled study. Eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive GFA or propafenone intravenously by a proportion of 1:1 in a double-blind manner.
