ObjectiveTo evaluate effect of music electrical stimulation on functional headache . Method78 patients were selected randomly from the patients who were cured after two years. Result46 patients are cured completely, 18 patients get better than before, accounting for 82.05%. Conclusion Music electrical stimulation is effective for functional headache.

Objective To evaluate the influence of ankle pump motor on deep vein thrombosis after surgical operation.Methods 138 cases of patients after surgical operation who were assessed as high risk patients,were randomized into the study group (70 cases)and the control group (68 cases),routine nursing was adopted in the control group,while in the study group,ankle pump motor was adopted in addition.The incidence of deep vein thrombosis was compared between two groups.Results No deep vein thrombosis was found in the study group,while 1 case of thrombosis was detected in the control group,but there was no statistic difference.Conclusions Ankle pump motor was easy and convenient,and can prevent deep vein thrombosis by promoting the reflux of the lower limbs,improving the recovery of patients after operation,and increasing nursing quality as well.

Objective To explore the correlative factors of sudden death in patients suspected with pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) in emergency room (ER).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted.The clinical data of 12 patients with sudden death suspected with PTE (sudden death group) in ER of the Air Force General Hospital from January 2011 to June 2014 were analyzed.The non-sudden death group included 35 patients during the same time period who were diagnosed with PTE based on findings of CT pulmonary arteriography (CTPA) and showed no sudden death in ER.Factors,including sex,age,previous operation,tumor,syncope,dyspnea,bilateral or unilateral edema of lower extremity,heart rate (HR),white blood cell count (WBC),D-dimer,arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2),arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) and typical clinical manifestation of electrocardiogram (SⅠTⅢQⅢ),were compared between the two groups.The potential predictors of sudden death of PTE were analyzed by logistic regression analysis.Results Young age (years old:51.3±15.5 vs.62.3±14.4),lower PaO2 [mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa):49.9± 12.3 vs.62.7± 10.2],higher HR (bpm:122.0± 19.5 vs.89.1 ± 18.5) and higher WBC (× 109/L:13.8 ± 6.9 vs.7.2 ± 2.5) were found in sudden death group as compared with those in non-sudden death group (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01).There was no significant differences in D-dimer level and PaCO2 between sudden death group and non-sudden death group [D-dimer (pg/L):986 (891,3 230) vs.2089 (598,3 397),PaCO2 (mmHg):33.0 (28.6,43.4)vs.36.5 (32.9,41.0),both P ＞ 0.05].The syncope,antineoplaston treatment or tumor metastasis within 6 months,operation in previous 4 months,bilateral asymmetrical edema in sudden death group were more than those of the non-sudden death group,and chest pain was less (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01).Difference in gender,dyspnea and typical SⅠTⅢQⅢ in electrocardiogram were not significant between the two groups (all P ＞ 0.05).It was shown by multiple logistic regression analysis that higher HR [odds ratio (OR) =1.124,95％ confidence interval (95％CI) =1.024-1.235,P =0.014] and higher WBC (OR =1.347,95％CI =1.043-1.738,P =0.022) were identified as independent risk factors of sudden death for PTE.Conclusions Gender,dyspnea,typical S Ⅰ TⅢQⅢ in electrocardiogram,PaCO2 and D-dimer seem unrelated to sudden death of patients with PTE.Young age,chest pain,syncope,bilateral asymmetrical edema,antineoplaston treatment or tumor metastasis within 6 months,operation in previous 4 months and low PaO2 were potential predictors of sudden death according to the univariate analysis.Higher WBC and higher HR are independent risk factors of sudden death for PTE patients.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of serum lactate combined with PIRO (Predisposition,Infection,Response and Organ dysfunction) score in the development of multiple organs dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in septic patients and to study procalcitonin (PCT),in order to provide guidelines for clinical care.Methods From April 2015 to July 2016,a total of 752 sepsis patients were enrolled and divided into MODS group (n =488) and non-MODS group (n =264) according to the criteria of MODS.At 28 d after admission,these patients were divided into survival group (n =477) and death group (n =275).PCT and lactate levels in serum were measured,and PIRO score of these patients was calculated.Then the differences in levels of PCT and lactate in serum were compared among patients at different PIRO score categories.ROC was constructed to observe the clinical values of the biomarkers,PIRO score and lactate combined with PIRO score in predicting prognosis.Result PCT,lactate levels in serum and PIRO score were significantly higher in MODS group and death group,showing significant positive correlation.The areas under ROC curves (AUCs) of serum lactate combined with PIRO score for predicting MODS were 0.906,which was significantly higher than that of serum PCT (0.716),serum lactate (0.851) and PIRO score (0.840) alone (all P ＜ 0.05).Serum PCT,serum lactate and PIRO score were the independent predictors of MODS.Conclusions Serum lactate in combination with PIRO score was a valuable indicator in predicting development of MODS in septic patients.

Objective To calculate the residoal liver volume using a virtaal liver surgery planning system,and to investigate the value of standardized estimated liver remnant volume ratio (STELR) in prcdicting hepatic dysfunction after hepatectomy.MethodsThe clinical data of 76 patients with primary liver cancer who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from April 2007 to October 2011 were retrospectivcly analyzed.The virtual resection and residual liver volume measurements were carried out using Liv 1.0 software.The value of STELR in predicting hepatic dysfunction was assessed using receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves.Effects of different risk factors on postoperative hepatic dysfunction were analyzed using univariate analysis of variance and multivariate Logistic regression models. Results The mean residual liver volumes predicted by the software and resected during operation were (489 ± 206)ml and (459 ± 199 )ml,respectively,with a positive correlation between predicted and actual resection volumes (r =0.916,P ＜ 0.05).Of the 76 patients,48 had mild hepatic dysfunction,19 had moderate hepatic dysfunction and 9 had severe hepatic dysfunction.A critical STELR of 53％ was associated with severe hepatic dysfunction.Severe hepatic dysfunction was detected in 2 out of 59 (3％) patients with STELR ≥ 53％ and 7 out of 17 (41％) patients with STELR ＜ 53％,which represented a significant difference ( x2 =5.085,P ＜ 0.05 ).The result of univariate analysis revealed that STEL,R,operating time,intraoperative blood loss were significant prognostic indicators for severe hepatic dysfunction ( F =7.227,8.630,13.809,P ＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regession revealed that STELR was a significant independent predictor of severe hepatic dysfunction ( Wald =6.675,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion The likelihood of severe hepatic dysfunction after hepatectomy can be predicted by STELR.

Serum levels of CXC chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10) and chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3) were determined in 50 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1 DM) and 30 normal control subjects by ELISA method.The results showed that serum levels of CXCL10 and CXCR3 in T1DM patients were significantly higher than those in normal subjects [(258.17 ± 39.12 vs 96.47 ± 26.91) ng/L,(851.87 ± 70.04 vs 441.82 ± 72.24) pg/ml,both P＜0.05].Serum level of CXCL10 in patients dropped sequentially with durations of diabetes ＜6 weeks,≥6 weeks or ＜3 years,and ≥ 3 years,being statistically significant between groups (P＜0.05).These results suggest that serum levels of CXC10 and CXCR3 may reflect the immune activity in T1DM.

Objective To investigate the relation between intrauterine growth and the development of carotid atherosclerosis in later life. Methods The intima-media thickness of carotid was measured with ultrasonography in 2036 people aged above fifty who had complete birth records, and divided into normal and abnormal group. They were asked to fill in the cardio-cerebrovascular questionnaire, and venous blood samples were taken and analysed for various biochemical parameters. The relation between carotid atherosclerosis and various parameters at birth and in adult life was assessed. Results The birthweight and head circumference in abnormal group were less than those in normal. The prevalence of carotid atherosclerosis was greatest in those weighed 2500g or less, whose risk of carotid atherosclerosis was greater than those weighed between 3000g and 3500g, after adjustment for cardiovascular risk factors. Conclusions Increased atherogenesis may be one independent mechanism mediating the epidemiological link between impaired fetal growth and vascular disease.

Sepsis,characterized by inadequate host responses to infection,leads to life-threatening organ dysfunction and is a major cause of mortality among critically ill patients.Among them,immunosuppression plays a crucial role in the development of sepsis.This review elaborates on the pathogenesis and immunological features of sepsis-induced immunosuppression.Then,we analyzed the current situation of immunotherapy for sepsis from the angles of restoring immune stimulation,eliminating inflammatory mediators,and improving immunity.We emphasized the need for a comprehensive analysis of the traits and immunological types of patients with sepsis,generating new approaches to improve the prognosis of sepsis based on immune targets.

Objective:To investigate the application of local rotation flap with subcutaneous pedicle for breast conservation in central breast cancer.Methods:Retrospective analysis of clinical data of 14 patients with stage Ⅰor Ⅱ central breast cancer was performed. The local rotation flap with subcutaneous pedicle was used for breast conservation in Jiangxi Provincial Breast Specialist Hospital (Nanchang Third Hospital) from January 2017 to December 2018. The postoperative complications were recorded. One year after operation, the aesthetic result, satisfactory and comfort index were evaluated. Two years after operation, local tumor recurrence and metastasis were followed.Results:All patients were women, aged 37-75 years old with the median age as 47. First-stage healing was achieved in 12 patients. Wound infection happened in one case and necrotic in one case. They were all healed after secondary suture. Fourteen patients were followed up for 1 year, the suprasternal notch-nipple length was (22.27±2.38) cm at the operative side, and (23.33±2.22) cm at the healthy side, showing no statistical significance ( t=-1.253, P=0.242). The nipple-midsternal line length was(10.12±0.91) cm at the operative side, and (10.68±1.09) cm at the healthy side, showing no statistical significance ( t=-1.937, P=0.094). The nipple-inframammary fold length was (6.94±0.95) cm at the operative side, and (7.05±1.30) cm at the healthy side, showing no statistical significance ( t=-0.478, P=0.645). The patient’s breast satisfaction was 60.2±11.4 points before operation and 61.7±12.7 points after operation, with no difference between them ( t=-0.330, P=0.744). The overall postoperative comfort index was 62.05±4.40 points, which indicates a moderate comfort state. The physiological comfort index was 6.52±2.05 points, the mental and psychological comfort index was 15.13±2.56 points, the social comfort index was 19.09±1.57 points, and the environmental comfort index was 21.29±2.11 points. There was no local recurrence and no systemic metastasis 2 years after operation. Conclusions:The breast conservation in central breast cancer with local rotation flap with subcutaneous pedicle is less invasive with few complication and satisfactory results in cosmetic appearance. The moderate comfort index and good prognosis can be prospected.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of routine indicators such as blood routine and liver and kidney function in auxiliary diagnosis and prognosis of COVID-19 patients.Methods:SNK-q and other methods were used to retrospectively analyzed the differences of blood routine test, liver and kidney function and other inflammatory indexes of 30 patients with covid-19, 29 patients with other viral pneumonia, 35 patients with influenza A/B and 25 healthy persons from January 28 to February 14, 2020 in Xiangya Hospital of Central South University.Results:The neutrophils count increased gradually in COVID-19 group, influenza A/B group and other types of viral pneumonia group, and the difference between COVID-19 group and other viral pneumonia groups was statistically significant( H=-19.064, P<0.05); The lymphocyte count decreased gradually in the control group, influenza A/B group, other viral pneumonia group and COVID-19 group. In addition, DB, UA and GLU were also different among groups. Subgroup analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in N( F=9.581, t=-0.152, P<0.05), N%( F=5.723, t=-0.600, P<0.05), NLR( F=4.773, t=-1.161, P<0.05), PCT( F=17.464, t=-1.477, P<0.05)and CRP( F=7.656, t=-1.973, P<0.05) between patients with lung involvement +-++ and patients with lung involvement +++-++++. There were statistically significant differences in NLR( F=63.931, t=-2.815, P<0.01), AST( F=15.704, t=-1.930, P<0.01), ALT( F=35.551, t=-2.199, P<0.01), LDH( F=7.715, t=-2.703, P<0.05) and GLU( F=6.306, t=-5.116, P<0.05) between the light+common subgroup and the heavy+critical subgroup of COVID-19 clinical classification. Correlation analysis showed that clinical stage and imaging credit period were significantly correlated with NLR ( r=0.406 , P=0.026; r=0.397 , P=0.030), ALT ( r=0.403 , P=0.049; r=0.418 , P=0.047), LDH ( r=0.543 , P<0.01; r=0.643 , P<0.01) and GLU( r=0.750 , P<0.01; r=0.471 , P=0.042). A total of 5 principal components were extracted from all the included indicators, and the comprehensive information extraction rate was 82.86%. Indicators of a large load included Ur, PCT and CRP in PC1; ALT, AST and GLU in PC2; N%, L%, L and NLR in PC3. It indicated that the indicators of acute infection, liver function and blood routine had certein warning effect on disease surveillance. The results of ROC curve analysis showed that the combined detection of N+TB+Urea was the best practice to distinguish COVID-19 and other viral pneumonia, while the combined detection of N+L+UA was the most effective solution to make a distinction between COVID-19 and influenza A/B patients. In the aspect of disease evaluation, NL+LDH+GLU+ALT combined detection represent the best diagnostic performance to distinguish the clinical stage of light+common type and heavy+critical type, achieving the AUC (ROC) to 0.904, with the sensitivity 75% and the specificity 100% at the cut-off value of 0.477. Conclusion:In addition to etiology and imaging examination, doctors can also improve the routine laboratory tests such as blood routine test, liver and kidney function to assist diagnosis and disease prediction of patients with respiratory tract infection.
