OBJECTIVE:To explore the effectiveness and safety of bicyclol combined with ganciclovir in the treatment of infan-tile cytomegaloirus hepatitis. METHODS:One hundred and twenty children with cytomegaloirus hepatitis in department of pediatrics of our hospital during May 2012-Aug. 2015 were selected and divided into observation group and control group according to random number table,with 60 cases in each group. Both groups received conventional treatment such as protecting liver,vitamin C,vitamin K and Compound glycyrrhizin injection 20 mL,ivgtt,qd. Control group additionally received Ganciclovir injection(induction period:5 mg/kg,q12 h,dripping time >1 h,for 7 d;maintenance period:5 mg/kg,q24 h,for 7 d);observation group was additionally giv-en Bicyclol tablet 0.5 mg/kg,bid,on the basis of control group. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were observed as well as liver enzyme level,jaundice level before and after treatment. The rate of negative CMV and the occurrence of ADR were compared. RESULTS:Clinical total response rate of observation group was 93.3%,which was significantly higher than 80.0% of control group,with statisti-cal significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in liver enzyme level and jaundice level between 2 groups before treat-ment(P>0.05). After treatment,liver enzyme level and jaundice level of 2 groups were decreased significantly,and observation group was significantly lower than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The rate of total negative CMV in observa-tion group was 85.0%,which was significantly higher than 73.3% of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Bicyclol combined with ganci-clovir shows significant therapeutic efficacy for infantile cytomegaloirus hepatitis,and can effectively reduce the levels of liver en-zymes,eliminate jaundice,protect liver function,promote virus clearance with good safety.

Objective To observe the clinical curative effects of acupuncture integrated Traditional Chinese and West-ern medicine in the treatment of peripheral facial paralysis. Methods A total of 64 cases patients were divided into the control group of 32 cases and the treatment group of 32 cases. The control group were treated with western medicine,while the treatment group were treated with Traditonal Chinese medicine and acupuncture based on the method of con-trol group treated. Compared efficacy of two groups after 4 weeks of treatment. The recovery of facial nerve function of the two groups and the comprehensive efficacy of the two groups were compared after 4 weeks. Results Control group total effective rate was 71.88%,the improvement rate of the facial muscles was 75.00%,while treatment group in turntotal effective rate was 87.50%, the improvement rate of the facial muscles was 84.38%. Compared the two groups,the treatment group was significantly higher.There was significantly statistical difference compared with the con-trol group (P<0.05). Conclution The efficacy of acupuncture Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western medicine is better than single western medicine in the treatment of peripheral facial paralysis. It should be popularized in clinical.

Objective:To explore the optimal match degree between thoracolumbar kyphosis (TLK) and lower lumbar lordosis (LLL) in adult spinal deformity (ASD) after correction surgery.Methods:Data of 119 ASD patients (male: 28, female: 91), belonging to the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University (19 cases), the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (11 cases), and the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital (89 cases) were reviewed and documented from March 2019 to March 2020. All patients (age, 64.48±8.88 years; range, 45-79 years) underwent the surgical procedure of thoracolumbar fusion with instrumentations were followed up over 24 months (51.68±15.60 months; range, 24-87 months) after surgery. Postoperative proximal interface failure, Oswestry disability index (ODI) score and Scoliosis Research Society-22 (SRS-22) score were recorded for all patients. The immediate match of TLK to LLL postoperatively was calculated as follows: TLM=TLK/LLL. The data of those individuals with excellent improvements in the ODI (>50%) at the final follow-up were recorded and analyzed. Then the mean value and the 95% CI of TLM in those individuals were calculated. All participants were subdivided into three groups according to the 95% CI value of TLM. After the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analyzing, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was the best cutoff value of TLM. The association of proximal junctional failure (PJF) developing with the abnormal TLM postoperatively was analyzed with logistic regression, and the odds ratio (OR) was calculated. Results:62 patients had significant improvements in ODI (>50%) at the final follow-up, and the mean TLM in those individuals was 0.41 [95% CI (0.2, 0.5)]. All patients were divided into three groups: TLM<0.2 (35 cases), 0.2≤TLM≤0.5 (48 cases) and TLM>0.5 (36 cases). The preoperative TLK (13.87°±16.61°) and T 1 pelvic angle (19.69°±10.55°) in the those patients with TLM<0.2 were the smallest, and those were the largest in those with TLM>0.5 (30.59°±16.68°, 28.30°±14.46°). The individuals with TLM<0.2 still had the smallest TLK (2.89°±1.78°), however, those with TLM>0.5 had the largest TLK (17.13°±12.13°) and the smallest LLL (-26.16°±11.02°) accordingly. Additionally, the ODI and SRS-22 for those with 0.2≤TLM≤0.5 at the final follow-up were the best ( P<0.05). ROC curve analysis results showed that the best cutoff value of TLM was 0.4 (sensitivity=78.9%, specificity=76.2%; AUC=0.802, 95% CI (0.708, 0.896) , P<0.001). During the follow-up after orthopedic surgery, there were 19 patients with postoperative proximal junction failure, including 16 patients in the mismatched group (6 patients in the TLM<0.2 group, 10 patients in the TLM>0.5 group) and 3 patients in the matched group (0.2≤TLM≤0.5 group), with the incidence of 23% (16/71) and 6% (3/48), respectively. The difference was statistically significant (χ 2=5.66, P=0.017). Thoracolumbar mismatch was significantly associated with proximal borderline failure after orthosis [ OR=4.35, 95% CI (1.196, 15.924)]. Conclusion:The abnormal correction in thoracolumbar kyphosis and lower lumbar lordosis may result in mismatch between thoracolumbar segments, which would undermine the quality of life, and increase the incidence of proximal junctional failure developing in those ASD patients underwent long-fusion surgeries. The match between TLK and LLL should be 0.2 to 0.5.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the changes of inflammatory cytokine levels and prognosis of patients with critical coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted. The clinical date of critical COVID-19 patients undergoing IMV who were hospitalized in Wuhan Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from February 4th to March 25th in 2020 were collected. At the same time, the inflammatory cytokine levels including interleukins (IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) at 48 hours before IMV and 48 hours after IMV of all the patients, as well as the 48 hours after weaning or right before death were recorded. Multivariate unconditional Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the independent risk factors of death during hospitalization.Results:Among the 43 patients, 13 patients improved and 30 died. Compared with the survival group, the patients in the non-survival group were older (years old: 67.6±7.3 vs. 58.5±11.9, P < 0.05), with higher rates of hypertension, diabetes and coronary heart disease (53.3% vs. 15.4%, 63.3% vs. 23.1%, 26.7% vs. 0%, all P < 0.05), and the time from onset to admission to hospital, admission to ICU and IMV were longer (days: it was 9.17±5.00 vs. 5.07±2.49, 17.10±7.11 vs. 12.23±5.05, and 17.90±7.46 vs. 12.61±5.60, respectively, all P < 0.05). The IL-6 and TNF-α levels on 48 hours after IMV in the non-survival patients increased significantly as compared with those before 48 hours and the surviving patients. Especially, the IL-6 levels increased significantly as compared with those at 48 hours after IMV and 48 hours after weaning in the surviving patients [ng/L: 800.00 (194.25, 2 000.00) vs. 22.03 (6.66, 28.21), 3 204.00 (1 264.88, 5 000.00) vs. 5.00 (3.98, 12.27), both P < 0.01]. The IL-10 level before death in the non-survival patients increased significantly as compared with that at 48 hours after weaning in the surviving patients [ng/L: 55.89 (26.07, 100.14) vs. 3.53 (2.76, 12.36), P < 0.05]. There were no significant differences in the levels of IL-2 and IL-4 between the two groups at every time point. The variables of age, basic diseases, the IL-6 level after IMV were included in the multivariate unconditional Logistic regression analysis, which showed that age [odds ratio ( OR) = 0.821, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.695-0.968], hypertension ( OR = 0.027, 95% CI was 0.002-0.378), diabetes mellitus ( OR = 0.054, 95% CI was 0.005-0.611), coronary heart disease ( OR = 0.042, 95% CI was 0.002-0.968) and the IL-6 level after IMV ( OR = 0.902, 95% CI was 0.819-0.994) were independent risk factors for death during hospitalization in patients with critical COVID-19 undergoing IMV (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:The levels of inflammatory cytokine including IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-α increased significantly with aggravation in critical COVID-19 patients undergoing IMV, especially IL-6. IL-6 was an independent risk factor for death of critical COVID-19 patients undergoing IMV.
