    Malaria is a parasitic disease leading to global spread and epidemic, which seriously threatens and endangers human health. Based on incomplete statistics, there are about 200 million cases of malaria patients caused by this parasite every year, and the number of death cases is nearly 440 000. It's universally acknowledged that the most effective way to treat malaria patients and reduce their clinical mortality rate is "early prevention, early diagnosis and effective treatment". Artemisinin is refined from Artemisia annua Linn, a traditional medicinal plant in China. Owing to its outstanding efficacy and application value in the treatment of malaria such as P. falciparum malaria and P. vivax malaria, artemisinin has become an important research object of medical researchers. It has experienced decades or even generations of research and achieved outstanding results. In this paper, the development of artemisinin and its derivatives, the antimalarial mechanism, metabolism of artemisinin and clinical treatment of artemisinin have been reviewed, and the research progress of artemisinin has been also analyzed.

    Objective: To explore the feasibility of dynamic monitoring based on renal function indicators for evaluating the efficacy and safety indicators of vancomycin in elderly patients with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) pneumonia, and to provide reference for the feasibility evaluation of vancomycin in pharmaceutical care. Methods: Data of 118 elderly patients with MRSA pneumonia admitted to our hospital from March 2017 to February 2020 were selected. Based on different treatment methods, the patients were divided into conventional treatment group (n=56, conventional vancomycin was used) and intervention group (n=62), that was, the dosage of vancomycin was adjusted base on the dynamic monitoring of endogenous creatinine clearance rate (CCR), serum creatinine (SCR) and urea nitrogen (BUN). The changes of measured values of CCR, SCR, BUN and the difference of serum valley concentration of vancomycin were compared between the two groups before and after treatment, and the correlation between the changes of measured values of CCR, SCR, BUN and serum valley concentration of vancomycin was analyzed, so as to explore the differences of clinical efficacy and incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups after treatment. Results: Two-way ANOVA showed that the serum valley concentrations of Scr, BUN and vancomycin in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the conventional treatment group, but the CCR value was significantly higher than that in the conventional treatment group (P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the serum valley concentration of vancomycin was negatively correlated with CCR (r=–0.473), but positively correlated with SCR (r=0.537) and BUN (r=0.619) (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the total effective rate and MRSA clearance rate of vancomycin treatment between the two groups (P>0.05), but the incidence of adverse reactions in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the conventional treatment group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Dynamic monitoring of CCR, SCR and BUN values could reflect the therapeutic window range of vancomycin plasma drug valley concentration (10~20 mg/L), which had guiding significance for clinical prevention of renal function injury, clinical efficacy and safety.
