Objective To evaluate the levels of the Chinese literature published by the schistosomiasis control institutions of 17 municipal cities of Hubei Province. Methods The related literature published from 2008 to 2012 was searched from the da-tabases of CNKI VIP and Wanfang and then screened by the exclusion criteria. NoteExpress and Excellsoftwares were applied to collect the literature and carry out the bibliometric analysis. Results A total of 168 papers were included and the schistosomia-sis control institutes of Jingzhou City and Wuhan City had the highest amount. The literature was mainly published in Chinese Journal of Schistosomiasis Control and Journal of Public Health and Preventive Medicine. The comprehensive influence index-es of the schistosomiasis control institutes of Jingzhou Wuhan and Qianjiang cities were higher. The schistosomiasis control in-stitutes of Jingzhou City had an extensive content of literature while Wuhan was mainly focused on epidemiology case report and Oncomelania hupensis snail control. Conclusion The research of schistosomiasis in each municipal city has an extensive con-tent and the research capacity of the schistosomiasis control institute of Jingzhou City is relatively outstanding.

Objective To explore the clinicopathological significance of the presence of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in the high-grade stage pT1 bladder cancer (BC) after first transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT).Methods The retrospective study was performed with 27 patients of high-grade stage pT1 BC after first TURBT from January 2006 to December 2011,and another 54 patients were matched as negative control in terms of gender,age,pathological pattern,grading and staging.All the data were calculated by using SPSS17.0 software.Qualitative variables were compared by using chi-square test.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate total survival and cancer-specific survival and differences were assessed with the Log-rank statistic.Results Twenty-four patients (89%) experienced cancer recurrence in LVI group,while 19 cases (35%) experienced recurrence in control group.Progress developed in 56% (15/27) and 24% (13/54) in the 2 groups respectively.LVI was detected to be a prognostic factor for overall recurrence (x2 =20.845,P<0.001) and progress (x2 =7.887,P =0.005) in patients with high-grade T1 stage BC.Furthermore,overall survival and recurrence-free survival according to the presence or absence of LVI was 54±6 months and 84±3 months,17±5 months and 67±5 months,respectively.LVI was proved to be associated with worse overall survival (x2=13.443,P<0.001) and recurrence free survival (x2=33.094,P<0.001).Conclusion In patients with high-grade T1 stage BC,LVI in first TURBT specimens predicts disease recurrence,progression and overall recurrence and recurrence free survival.

Objective:To investigate the effect of pretreatment with butorphanol on perineal discomfort caused by intravenous injection of dexamethasone sodium phosphate.Methods:Using the method of prospective study, ninety patients undergoing elective gynecological surgery in Dalian Women And Children′s Medical Group from June to December 2021 were randomly divided into three groups: butorphanol 0.5 mg pretreatment group (group B1), butorphanol 1.0 mg pretreatment group (group B2) and normal saline control group (group C), with 30 cases in each group. Patients in groups B1 and B2 were given butorphanol 0.5 mg and 1.0 mg intravenously, respectively, prior to induction of anesthesia, while those in group C were given 0.9% sodium chloride injection. 3 minutes later, all patients in the three groups were given dexamethasone sodium phosphate injection 10 mg, and the incidence, grade and adverse reactions of their perineal discomfort symptoms were recorded.Results:The incidence of perineal discomfort and moderate perineal discomfort of patients in group B1 and group B2 was lower than that in group C: 20.00%(6/30)and 10.00%(3/30)vs. 60.00%(18/30), 3.33%(1/30)and 3.33(1/30)vs. 30.00%(10/30), with a statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions such as dizziness was increased in the group B2:26.67%(8/30)and 10.00%(3/30)vs. 40.00%(12/30), with a statistically significant difference ( χ2 = 7.13, P = 0.028). Conclusions:Butorphanol 0.5 mg and 1.0 mg pretreatments are touted as effective in inhibiting perineal discomfort caused by intravenous injection of dexamethasone sodium phosphate. However, the butorphanol 0.5 mg pretreatment group have fewer adverse reactions.

OBJECTIVE To explore the material basis and mechanism of expectorant and cough relief effects of the fruits of Phellodendron chinense var. glabriusulum Schneid. METHODS The expectorant and cough relief effects of volatile oil and water decoction of the fruits of P. chinense var. glabriusulum Schneid. were studied by ammonia water cough induction and drug expectorant model mice experiments; GC-MS and UPLC-MS technologies were used to identify its volatile oils and non-volatile components of the fruits of P. chinense var. glabriusulum Schneid. The active ingredients, core targets and pathways of expectoration and cough relief were analyzed by network pharmacology. RESULTS The volatile oil (0.8, 0.2 g/kg, calculated by volatile oil) and water decoction (12, 3 g/kg, calculated by crude drug) of the fruits of P. chinense var. glabriusulum Schneid. both had obvious expectorant and cough relief effects, and showed obvious dose-dependent relationship. A total of 38 volatile oil components were identified from the medicinal herbs, and the relative percentage contents of 8 components were greater than 1%, such as α -pinene, myrcene, β -caryophyllene, germanene D, isospathulenol; a total of 69 non-volatile oil components were identified, mainly including phenolic compounds, alkaloids, and flavonoids. The active ingredients screened from the identified components included 13 compounds such as α-pinene, myrcene, chlorogenic acid, luteolin, berberine. There were a total of 55 intersection targets with diseases, and the core targets were tumor necrosis factor (TNF), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA), serine/threonine kinase proteins (AKT1) and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). The molecular docking results showed that the active ingredients and the core targets had good binding ability. GO functional analysis found that the targets were significantly enriched in biological processes such as the reaction affecting lipopolysaccharides, the positive regulation of peptidyl serine phosphorylation, and the positive regulation of the biosynthesis process of nitric oxide. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis found that the targets were significantly enriched in the signaling pathways such as cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, proteoglycans in cancer. CONCLUSIONS Fruits of P. chinense var. glabriusulum Schneid. have obvious expectorant and cough relief effects, and its material basis may be α-pinene, myrcene, chlorogenic acid, luteolin, berberine, etc., and mainly act on TNF, EGFR, VEGFA, AKT1, TLR4 and its significantly enriched signaling pathway.
