Objective To explore effective treatment of uremic hemodialysis patients with chronic helicobacter pylori-negative erosive gastritis.Methods Fourty-eight cases of uremic hemodialysis patients with helicobacter pylori-negative chronic erosive gastritis were diagnosed by detection of helicobacter pylori and endoscopic examination.Fourty-eight patients were randomly divided into two groups,treatment group (24 patients) with oral pantoprazole 40 mg,once a day,combinding with oral Marzulene-S particles,each 0.67 g,three times a day,the control group (24 cases ) only with the dose of pantoprazole treatment.Effect of treatment was compared in these two groups after treatment for 21 days.Results Twenty-one days after treatment,the clinical symptoms of uremic hemodialysis patients with upper gastrointestinal improved in treatment group,and the performance of endoscopic and histopathological has varying degree of improvement.It shows that pantoprazole combined with Marzulene-S treatment group has a significant effect than that single treatment with pantoprazole group.In the treatment group,the total effective rate was 95.83%,however it was 83.33% in the control group( U =2.716,P < 0.01 ).Repair of mucosal lesions were significantly different between the two groups ( total effective rate 83.33% vs 45.83%,U =2.349,P < 0.05 ).Conclusion Pantoprazole combined with Marzulene-S therapy has a significant effect on uremic hemodialysis patients with chronic Helicobacter pylori-negative erosive gastritis.

Objective To evaluate the method of hemodialysis patients with the diagnosis and treatment of herpes zoster.Methods Diagnosis and treatment of 27 cases of hemodialysis patients with varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection in patients with clinical data.Results All patients in addition to continuing the line hemodialysis treatment,use the ganciclovir,topical recombinant human interferon α -1b cream,vitamin Bl,Methycobal,antibiotics to prevent bacterial infection,oral medicine,comprehensive treatment of pain.The total effective rate of treatment group is 92.59%.Conclusion VZV was a common disease in hemodialysis patients,easy diagnosis,rational drug treatment is very important,need comprehensive treatment can achieve good results.

Objective To analyse the X-ray and CT manifestations of sacral primary tumor.Methods 10 cases with sacral primary tumors verified by pathology,including sacral chordoma(n=5),giant cell tumor(n=2),chondrosarcoma(n=2),neurilemmomas(n=1),were analysed retrospectively.Results (1)The manifestations of CT and X-ray of sacral chordoma presented as a midline destructive lesion,involving prominently at sacrum 3~5,with flocculent calcification and irregular bone crests.(2)Giant cell tumor involved predominately sacrum 1~3 with expansile destructive area and commonly in young adults.(3)Chondrosarcoma and neurilemmomas had difference characteristic on X-ray film and CT.One case with chondrosarcoma had bone destruction in sacrum 1~3 and giant mass grow into pelvis.Conclusion CT combined with X-ray film is helpful in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of sacral primary tumors.

Objective: To observe the dynamic changes of plasma level thymosinβ4 (Tβ4) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients with intervening therapy within 15 days of onset and to explore the relationship between Tβ4 and clinical prognosis in AMI patients.
Methods: Our research included 2 groups:AMI group, n=69 and Control group, the patients with suspected chest pain while CAG excluded coronary artery stenosis, n=32. Plasma levels of Tβ4 were examined in all AMI patients on admission day and every day until 15 days of onset;AMI patients were followed-up for 18 months and the endpoint was defined as major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) occurrence.
Results: ①Compared with Control group, AMI group had increased plasma level of Tβ4 on admission day and on day-15 of onset, P<0.01. ② With intervening therapy, AMI group had elevated Tβ4 level upon immediate onset, it was decreased on day-1, reached low level on day-3 and elevated to peak on day-6, then reduced followed by slightly raising on day-11.③During follow-up period, the AMI patients without MACE had the higher mean in-hospital maximum Tβ4 value than those with MACE occurrence, P<0.01. Logistic regression analysis indicated that the mean in-hospital maximum Tβ4 value was related to MACE occurrence during follow-up period (OR=0.999, 95%CI 0.999-1.000).
Conclusion: AMI may induce up-regulated expression of plasma Tβ4;with intervening therapy, Tβ4 showed a trend of“elevation-reduction-elevation-reduction”at the early stage of AMI. High expression of Tβ4 was helpful for improving clinical prognosis in AMI patients which may provide a theoretical basis for exogenous use of Tβ4 in AMI treatment.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features of neonatal testicular torsion and to evaluate the effect and necessity of early intervention.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 11 neonates admitted to the Second Hospital of Shandong University with neonatal testicular torsion from June 2017 to June 2022. Clinical data of these cases including clinical manifestations, ultrasonography findings, surgical management and outcomes were reviewed and analyzed with descriptive statistical methods.Results:The median age of the 11 patients on admission was 2.6 d (1-5 d). The median time from finding abnormal scrotum to admission was 12 h (1-120 h). Various degrees of scrotal swelling or scleroma were found in the patients. Among them, seven patients presented with acute inflammatory signs of cyano sis or skin redness, and testis-like tissue induration could be touched. Ultrasound scan showed abnormal blood flow in the affected testicle in all cases. Emergency scrotal exploration under general anesthesia was performed successfully in all cases and ten of them underwent orchiectomy of the affected testicle plus contralateral orchiopexy. The rest one who was admitted within 1 h after birth only underwent orchiopexy of the affected testicle as the parents refused contralateral testicular exploration. During the operation, 12 twisted testis were observed, including seven with extravaginal torsion, three with intravaginal torsion and two adhering to the surrounding tissue without normal testicular tissue or distinguishable torsion direction or degree. In this study, ten patients had unilateral testicular torsion, which affected the left side in seven cases and the right side in three cases, and one had bilateral testicular torsion, which was diagnosed as left testicle torsion before surgery. During scrotal exploration, the left testicle of this bilateral case was resected due to necrosis, while the right testicle twisted about 180 degrees with good blood flow and was subjected to orchidopexy after reduction. In one case, the unaffected testicle was unfixed and dysplastic during contralateral exploration, which was also subjected to orchidopexy. In the 12 testis with torsion, one testicle of the patient admitted within 1 h after birth and the right testicle of the bilateral case were preserved with a salvage rate of 2/12. Pathological examination showed necrosis in the ten excised testis, and fibrosis and calcification foci in two of them. None of the patients had any perioperative complications and the scrotal incision healed well in all neonates. The patients were followed up for 6-12 months with regular ultrasound. The two preserved testis and the contralateral testis subjected to orchidopexy were located in the scrotum with good blood supply, and no torsion, atrophy or other abnormalities occurred.Conclusions:Neonatal testicular torsion is rarely seen in clinical practice and has no specific manifestations. It has a high excision rate due to testicular necrosis. Early diagnosis and bilateral scrotal exploration are crucial to the prognosis and the keys to save the affected testis and avoid anorchidism.
