1.Emotional Masking (review)
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2008;14(11):1041-1042
As a variance of the experience and the behavior of emotion, emotional masking has been obtained in society and will be developed during all one's life. The emotional masking, which has been influenced by many facts, such as social surroundings, the family, the received education, accompanier and so on, will produce different results for the multiplicity of cognition/emotion and acts and will work on the people's physiology, psychology and social relation.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic results of percutaneous transhepatic stent angioplasty for portal vein stenosis following liver transplant.Methods From 2005 to 2007,7 patients developed portal vein stenosis following liver transplant.Percutaneous transhepatic stent angioplasty of the portal vein was performed in all patients.The therapeutic results were monitored by clinical follow-up and imaging examination.Results In seven patients,the percutaneous transhepatic stents were placed successfully.The follow up period ranged from 3 months to 34 months.Portal venous patency Was maintained in six patients(one patient died due to hepatic arterial thrombosis and ischemic insult to bile duct at three months following the stent placement).No complications due to stent angioplasty occurred.Conclusion Percutaneous transhepatic stent angioplasty is an effective and safe method for treatment of portal vein stenosis following liver transplant.

Background: Unintended intraoperative hypothermia is a common complication of general anesthesia surgery, which can cause pain, coagulation dysfunction, wound infection, delayed recovery, and other adverse consequences. There are few studies related to intraoperative hypothermia during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Aims: To analyze the risk factors of intraoperative hypothermia during ERCP under general anesthesia and establish a predictive model. Methods: A total of 121 patients underwent ERCP under general anesthesia from September 2021 to November 2021 at Shanghai General Hospital were recruited, and relevant clinical data were collected. Logistic regression analysis was used to screen risk factors, and a predictive model was constructed. The model was externally validated by independent datasets with ROC curve and Hosmer⁃Lemeshow goodness of fit test. Results: A total of 114 patients were enrolled in modeling group. The incidence of intraoperative hypothermia was 11.40% (13/114). There were more women in the hypothermia group (P<0.05). The temperature of entering the operating room and operating room temperature were relatively lower in the hypothermia group (P<0.05). Gender was an independent risk factor for intraoperative hypothermia in ERCP under general anesthesia (P<0.05). The predictive model constructed by using gender and temperature of entering the operating room screened by Logistic regression analysis had a good discrimination and calibration, area under the ROC curve by external validation was 0.78. Conclusions: Gender and temperature of entering the operating room can effectively predict the occurrence of intraoperative hypothermia and assist perioperative monitoring and management.

Background::To date, there is no effective medicine to treat coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and the antiviral efficacy of arbidol in the treatment for COVID-19 remained equivocal and controversial. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of arbidol tablets in the treatment of COVID-19.Methods::This was a prospective, open-label, controlled and multicenter investigator-initiated trial involving adult patients with confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Patients were stratified 1:2 to either standard-of-care (SOC) or SOC plus arbidol tablets (oral administration of 200 mg per time, three times a day for 14 days). The primary endpoint was negative conversion of SARS-CoV-2 within the first week. The rates and 95% confidential intervals were calculated for each variable.Results::A total of 99 patients with laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection were enrolled; 66 were assigned to the SOC plus arbidol tablets group, and 33 to the SOC group. The negative conversion rate of SARS-CoV-2 within the first week in patients receiving arbidol tablets was significantly higher than that of the SOC group (70.3% [45/64] vs. 42.4% [14/33]; difference of conversion rate 27.9%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 7.7%-48.1%; P = 0.008). Compared to those in the SOC group, patients receiving arbidol tablets had a shorter duration of clinical recovery (median 7.0 days vs. 12.0 days; hazard ratio [HR]: 1.877, 95% CI: 1.151-3.060, P = 0.006), symptom of fever (median 3.0 days vs. 12.0 days; HR: 18.990, 95% CI: 5.350-67.410, P < 0.001), as well as hospitalization (median 12.5 days vs. 20.0 days; P < 0.001). Moreover, the addition of arbidol tablets to SOC led to more rapid normalization of declined blood lymphocytes (median 10.0 days vs. 14.5 days; P > 0.05). The most common adverse event in the arbidol tablets group was the elevation of transaminase (5/200, 2.5%), and no one withdrew from the study due to adverse events or disease progression. Conclusions::SOC plus arbidol tablets significantly increase the negative conversion rate of SARS-CoV-2 within the first week and accelerate the recovery of COVID-19 patients. During the treatment with arbidol tablets, we find no significant serious adverse events.Trial registration::Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, NCT04260594, www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04260594?term= NCT04260594&draw=2&rank=1
