Objective To discuss the relationship between peptic ulcer in children and food-specific IgG, and to evaluate the effect of avoiding the intolerant food on treatment of peptic ulcer. Method Fourteen kinds of food specific IgG in 69 cases of peptic ulcer were tested by ELISA. The patient′s intolerance to different foods and its relationship with age , sex and different ulcer were analyzed. The efficacy of avoiding the intolerant food was assessed after 8 weeks. Results Total positive of food-specific IgG in children with peptic ulcer was 94.2%. For preschool children, the highest intolerance rates were in milk and eggs; for school-age and adolescence children, the highest intolerance rate was in eggs. As the age increases, kinds of intolerant food increased too. Ulcer healing rate in observation group was higher than that in the control group after 8 weeks. Conclusions High positive percentage of food- specific IgG was found in children with peptic ulcer , indicating a possible correlation of peptic ulcer and food-intolerance. Kinds of intolerant food correlates with the age group , but not with sex and ulcer sites. Avoiding the intolerant food may increase ulcer healing rate.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy between laparoscopic suture and extraperitoneal suture for laparoscopic trocar incision with a length≥10 mm.Methods A total of 138 patients with gynecological surgery under laparoscopy admitted to our hospital from March 2017 to March 2023 were divided into two groups according to their admission time:53 cases in the traditional group(after laparoscopic surgery,the skin and subcutaneous tissue were sutured outside the peritoneum to close the trocar incision 10-12 mm in length)from March 2017 to March 2020,and 85 cases in the improved group(the fascia and peritoneum were sutured intraperitoneally under laparoscopy to close the trocar incision 10-12 mm in length)from April 2020 to March 2023.The postoperative incision complications were compared between the two groups.Results There was 1 case of postoperative incision liquefaction in the improved group,without other complications.There were 1 case of postoperative incision bleeding,2 cases of incision infection,1 case of incision liquefaction,1 case of incision dehiscence,and 1 case of incision hernia in the traditional group.The incidence of postoperative incision complications in the improved group was 1.2％(1/85),significantly lower than that in the traditional group[11.3％(6/53);x2=5.029,P=0.025].Conclusion After gynecological laparoscopic surgery,intra-abdominal suture of incision≥10 mm in length significantly reduces the incidence of postoperative incision complications,but the operation is difficult to perform and requires high suturing techniques.

ObjectiveTo discuss dosimetric characteristics of an intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) technique for treating the chest wall and regional nodes as an integrated volume after modified radical mastectomy ( MRM ),and observe acute side-effects following irradiation.Methods From June 2009 to August 2010,75 patients were randomly enrolled.Of these,41 had left-sided breast cancer.Each eligible patient had a planning CT in treatment position,on which the chest wall,supraclavicular,and infraclavicular nodes,+/-internal mammary region,were contoured as an integrated volume.A muhi-beam IMRT plan was designed with the target either as a whole or two segments divided at below the clavicle head.A dose of 50 Gy in 25 fractions was prescribed to cover at least 90％ of the PTV.Internal mammary region was included in 31 cases.Dose volume histograms were used to evaluate the IMRT plans.The acute side effects were followed up regularly during and after irradiation.The independent two-sample t-test was used to compare the dosimetric parameters between integrated and segmented plans.ResultsPlanning design was completed for all patients,including 55 integrated and 20 segmented plans,with median number of beams of 8.The conformity index and homogeneity index was 1.43 ± 0.15 and 0.14 ± 0.02,respectively.Patients with internal mammary region included in PTV had higher homogeneity index PT.The percent volume of PTV receiving ＞ 110％ prescription dose was ＜ 5％.None of the dose constraints to normal structures was violated.There were statistically significant differences in the means of dosimetric parameters of PTV,such as Dmax,DmeanV107％,and V110％,between integrated and segmented plans (t=2.19 -2.53,P=0.013-0.031 ).≥ grade 2 radiation dermatitis was identified in 3 2 patients ( grade 2 in 2 2 patients,grade 3 in 10 patients ),mostly occurred within 1 - 2 weeks after treatment.The sites of moist desquamation were anterior axillary fold (27/37) and chest wall (10/37).Only 2 patients developed grade 2 radiation pneumonitis.Conclusions The IMRT technique applied after MRM with integrated locoregional target volume is dosimetrically feasible,and the treatment was proved to be well-tolerated by most patients.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of albumin-to-fibrinogen ratio (AFR) for postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in infants with ventricular septal defect repair under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on infants diagnosed with ventricular septal defect in Anhui Children's Hospital from January 2019 to July 2023. The infants were divided into AKI group and non-AKI group according to whether AKI occurred in hospital after operation. Demographic data, preoperative data, intraoperative data, postoperative data and laboratory results during CPB were collected. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to find the factors of AKI after ventricular septal defect repair with CPB. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to analyze the predictive value of AFR for postoperative AKI after ventricular septal defect repair with CPB.Results:A total of 215 children were collected, including 28 in AKI group and 187 in non-AKI group. There were no significant differences in age, gender, body weight, height, history of pneumonia and history of chronic heart failure between the two groups, but the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in the AKI group was significantly lower than that in the non-AKI group (0.526±0.028 vs. 0.538±0.030, P = 0.048). The duration of CPB (minutes: 74.1±12.1 vs. 65.8±11.3, P < 0.001), aortic cross-clamping (minutes: 41.7±9.7 vs. 37.2±9.4, P = 0.021) and hypothermic circulation arrest (21.4% vs. 8.6%, P = 0.047) in AKI group were significantly higher than those in non-AKI group, but there were no significant differences in the proportion of ultrafiltration and urine volume between the two groups. The length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay in AKI group was significantly longer than that in non-AKI group (days: 5.3±2.0 vs. 4.0±1.7, P < 0.001), but there were no significant differences in duration of mechanical ventilation and the proportion of postoperative hypotension between the two groups. During CPB, the levels of blood glucose (mmol/L: 9.4±1.3 vs. 8.8±0.8, P < 0.001), blood lactic acid (mmol/L: 2.2±0.3 vs. 2.0±0.3, P = 0.015) and serum creatinine (μmol/L: 79.7±11.5 vs. 74.4±10.9, P = 0.018) in AKI group were significantly higher than those in non-AKI group, while the AFR was significantly lower than that in non-AKI group (8.5±1.3 vs. 10.2±1.6, P < 0.001), but there were no significant differences in the levels of hemoglobin, blood urea nitrogen, alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase between the two groups during CPB. Multivariate Logistic regression showed that AFR was a protective factor for AKI after ventricular septal defect repair with CPB [odds ratio ( OR) = 0.439, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.288-0.669, P < 0.001]. Blood glucose ( OR = 2.133, 95% CI was 1.239-3.672, P = 0.006) and blood lactic acid ( OR = 5.568, 95% CI was 1.102-28.149, P = 0.038) were risk factors for AKI after ventricular septal defect repair with CPB. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of AFR in predicting AKI after ventricular septal defect repair with CPB was 0.804 (95% CI was 0.712-0.897, P < 0.001). When the optimal cut-off value was less than 9.05, the corresponding sensitivity was 75.0% and the specificity was 72.7%. Conclusions:Low AFR (≤9.05) during CPB is an independent risk factor for AKI after ventricular septal defect repair with CPB. AFR during CPB has a high predictive value for postoperative AKI after ventricular septal defect repair with CPB.

In this study, the current status for breast diseases in a region with high-incidence of cervical cancer were epidemiologically investigated. From March to August, 2009, 17618 women, from Wufeng area of Hubei province, China, were recruited to screen breast diseases by using breast infrared diagnostic apparatus. Other diagnostic methods, such as B-mode ultrasound, X-ray mammography, needle biopsy and pathological examination were, if necessary, used to further confirm the diagnosis. The screening showed that 5990 of 17618 cases (34.00%) had breast diseases, 5843 (33.16%) had mammary gland hyperplasia, 48 (0.27%) had breast fibroadenoma, 11 (0.06%) had breast carcinoma, and 88 (0.50%) had other breast diseases. The peak morbidity of breast cancer was found in the women aged 50-60 ages. The morbidity of breast cancer was significantly increased in women elder than or equal to 50 years old (n=8, 0.157%) in comparison with that in the subjects younger than 50 years old (n=3, 0.024%) (u=2.327, P<0.05). It was shown that the occurrence of breast diseases was concentrated in women aged 20-40 years, while the total morbidity reached its peak at the age of 30 years and then decreased sharply after age of 40. Compared with the patients elder than or equal to 40 years old (n=3289, 27.46%), the morbidity rate of breast diseases was significantly increased in women less than 40 years old (2648 cases, 47.18%; P<0.001). However, there was no significant difference in the morbidity of breast diseases between the age group of 20-29 years and that of 30-39 years (P=0.453), and both of them were high. There was no significant association between the morbidity of breast diseases and cervical cancer. Since the morbidity of breast diseases was higher among young women, more attention should be paid to the screening of breast diseases among young women for early diagnosis.
