Owing to the continuous improvement of surgical techniques and multiple adjunctive therapy,postoperative convalescence of patients has reached great achievements.There are,nevertheless,many problems left for us to discuss.Fast-track surgery employs a variety of methods,such as neodoxy of oral bowel preparation,intraoperative anaesthesia and fluid management,maintenance of body temperature,early ambulation,pain relief etc,to reduce the morbidity of operative stress,complications,and suffering of patients,as well as accelerating the postoperative convalescence so as to shorten the time patient spend in hospital.Fast-track surgery develops a"patient-centered"attitude,and establishes an ultimate goal as giving full benefit to patients when they are in hospital.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical characteristics,risk factors and preventive measures for nosocomial pneumonia in patients with post-hepatitis liver cirrhosis.METHODS A prospective and retrospective study was carried out to investigate the clinical data of 495 patients with post-hepatitis liver cirrhosis in Department of Infectious Diseases during Jan 1,2005 to Dec 31,2007.RESULTS The incidence rate of the nosocomial pneumonia in post-hepatitis liver cirrhosis patients was 13.50 %.The death rate was 25.40 %,which was obviously higher than 6.8% of patients without no nosocomial infection(?2=23.77,P

Objective: To study the rational treatment course of proton pump inhibitor omeprazole for critical patients in order to improve the prognosis and reduce the hospital stay and treatment expense. Methods:Totally 180 critical patients with APACHEⅡ>10 and mechanical ventilation >48 hours in ICU were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups treated by omeprazole for 1 day, 3 days and 5 days , respectively. The incidence rate of stress ulcer, gastrointestinal hemorrhage and ventilator-associated pneumonia ( VAP) in the three groups was studied, and the ICU stay and expense were also investigated. Results:The incidence rate of stress ul-cer and gastrointestinal hemorrhage in the group with treatment course of 3 days and 5 days were significantly lower than those in the group with 1 day treatment(P<0. 05). The incidence rate of VAP with 3-days treatment was the lowest, compared with 1 day and 5 days treatment, the different was satatistically significant(P<0. 05). The ICU hospitalization time and treatment expense were also significantly different among the three groups, and that in 3-days, group was the lowest(P<0. 05). Conclusion:The 3-day treatment is the most reasonable, which can not only prevent stress ulcer and gastrointestinal bleeding in critical patients, but also reduce the in-cidence of VAP with lowered hospital stay and expense.

Objective : To analyze the screening results of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and HIV co-infections in Ningbo City from 2012 to 2020, so as to provide insights into improving the tuberculosis control strategy. Methods : Data pertaining to HIV antibody testing among tuberculosis patients, MTB testing among HIV/AIDS patients, treatment of patients with MTB and HIV co-infections and prognosis of anti-tuberculosis therapy were collected from the annual working reports for the management of MTB and HIV co-infections in Ningbo City from 2012 to 2020, and the screening, treatment and prognosis of MTB and HIV co-infections were analyzed. Results : A total of 35 385 newly identified tuberculosis patients were reported in Ningbo City from 2012 to 2020, and there were 5 854 cases receiving HIV testing. The annual mean percentage of HIV screening was 17.57%, and the HIV screening rate appeared a tendency towards a rise in Ningbo City from 2012 to 2020 (χ2trend=4 926.309, P<0.001). Eleven patients were tested positive for HIV, with an annual mean HIV positive rate of 0.19%. A total of 26 043 HIV/AIDS patients received MTB screening, with an annual mean screening rate of 95.78%, and the annual screening rate of MTB appeared a tendency towards a rise in Ningbo City from 2012 to 2020 (χ2trend=79.077, P<0.001). A total of 81 tuberculosis patients were detected, with an annual mean detection rate of 0.31%. Among the 92 patients with MTB and HIV co-infections, there were 81 patients receiving anti-tuberculosis and antiviral therapy simultaneously (88.04%), 8 cases receiving anti-tuberculosis therapy alone (8.70%), 2 cases receiving antiviral therapy alone (2.17%) and 1 case without therapy (1.09%). Among the 89 MTB and HIV co-infected patients receiving anti-tuberculosis therapy, 27 cases were cured (30.34%), 53 cases completing the course of treatment (59.55%) and 7 cases died. Conclusions The MTB screening rate among HIV/AIDS patients and the percentage of MTB and HIV co-infected patients with successful anti-tuberculosis treatment were high in Ningbo City from 2012 to 2020; however, the HIV screening rate should be improved among tuberculosis patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of isoflurane anesthesia on hippocampus synaptosomes proteome in aged rats.MethodsTwenty-seven 22- month-old SD rats weighing 480-550 g were randomly divided into 2 groups: control group (group C,n =6) and isoflurane group (group Ⅰ,n =21 ).In group C inhaled mixed gas containing 80％ oxygen for 2 h.In group Ⅰ the animals were endotracheal intubated after induction by 3％ isoflurane and inhaled 2％ isoflurane and 80％ oxygen for 2 h.Cognition function was evaluated by Y-maze at 24 h after anesthesia and the total training times were recorded.The total training times ＞ 75 was defined as cognitive dysfuction.In group Ⅰ the animals were divided into cognitive dysfuction group (group ⅠA) and non-cognitive dysfuction group (group IB) according to the results of Y-maze test.The animals were sacrificed and their hippocampi were removed and synaptosomes were extracted for two-dimensional gel electrophoresis.The different protein spots were analyzed by mass chromatographic analysis.ResultsSix rats had cognitive dysfuction (group IA) and another thirteen rats had no cognitive dysfuction (group IB).The total training times were significantly higher in group IA than in groups C and IB( P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the total training times between groups C and IB (P ＞ 0.05).There were 21 (11/10) different protein spots between groups IB and IA,and 19 (12/7) different protein spots between groups C and IA.Thirty-one protein spots were identified by means of MALDI-TOF-MS.ConclusionThe cognitive dysfuction after isoflurane anesthesia in aged rats may be related to the changes of energy metabolism protein,cytoskeletal structure and regulatory protein in synapse of hippocampus.

Objective To investigate the effect of cyclic tensile stress (CTS) on the metabolism inand apoptosis of rat chondrocytes.Methods Primary rat chondrocytes were cultured on a Bioflex plate for one day and then stretched cyclically for 24 hours at a frequency of 0.5 Hz using a Flexcell-5000T apparatus.The cells were divided into 5 groups according to their stretching ratio:0％ (the control group),2％,6％,10％ and 14％.After the stretching,Col Ⅱ,Aggrecan,MMP-13 and ADAMTS-5 mRNA were measured using qPCRs,and the NO and PGE2 levels were measured using ELISA kits.Moreover,TUNEL staining and Annexin V-FITC/PI were used to analyze the apoptosis of chondrocytes.Results Compared with the control group,the average levels of Col Ⅱ and Aggrecan mRNAdecreasedin 10％ and 14％ groups [(0.738±0.11) and (0.58±0.13),(0.75±0.11) and (0.55±0.09)].In those groups,the MMP-13 [(2.47±0.47) and (2.88±0.36)] and ADAMTS-5 mRNA level [(2.39±0.33) and (2.75±0.49)],the NO [(6.96±0.96) and (8.28±0.82)] and PGE2 level [(6.83±0.66) and (7.15±0.71)] had increased significantly.In the 6％ group the average levels of Col Ⅱ(1.76±0.30) and Aggrecan mRNA (1.93±0.14)of 6％ group were significantly higher than the control group,but the NO level of the former (3.07±0.20) was significantly lower than the control group (3.89 ± 0.33).The apoptosis rate of chondrocytesin 2％ and 6％ groups were (0.065±0.013) and (0.063 ± 0.147),without significant differences to that of the control group (0.045 ± 0.008).However,compared with the control group,apoptosis in the 10％ and 14％ groups [(0.135 ±0.026) and (0.184±0.020)] increased significantly.Conclusion The effect of cyclic tensile stress on chondrocyte metabolism and apoptosis was magnitude-dependent.Ten percent and 14％ CTS can increase the catabolism and apoptosis of chondrocytes.Ten percent and 14％ strain can increase the catabolism and apoptosis of chondrocytes.Cyclic 6％ strain can increase the anabolism of chondrocytes,but 2％ strain has no impact on metabolism or apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the changes in ATPase activity of diaphragm in rats with acute organophosphorus poisoning (AOPP) and to explore the effect of Xuebijing injection on the ATPase activity. Methods 24 clean healthy Spraue-Dawley(SD)rats were divided into control group,model group and Xuebijing treatment group by means of random number table,with 8 rats in each group. AOPP model was established by intra-gastrical administration of 50 mg/kg oxide dimethoate. In Xuebijing treatment group,after oxide dimethoate administration,intraperitoneal injection of Xuebijing(10 mL/kg)was given at the same time,while in control group and model group,equal amount of normal saline(NS)was injected via the same route. The rats were sacrificed at 6 hours after model formation,and their diaphragms were taken sterilely. The activities of Na+-K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPsae of diaphragms were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The histopathological changes in diaphragms of rats were observed with light microscopy. Results 6 hours after intoxication,the diaphragm Na+-K+-ATPase activity of rats in model group was markedly lower than that in control group(mmol?h-1?g-1:5.22±0.74 vs. 9.98±0.37,P<0.01),while the Na+-K+-ATPase activity in Xuebijing treatment group(6.93±1.14) was markedly higher than that in model group(P<0.05). The diaphragm Ca2+-ATPase activity of rats in model group was markedly lower than that in control group(mmol?h-1?g-1:7.45±0.74 vs. 12.08±0.74,P<0.01),while the Ca2+-ATPase activity in Xuebijing treatment group(9.35±1.67)was obviously higher than that in model group(P<0.05)after intoxication for 6 hours. Light microscope observation indicated that there were swelling and necrosis in diaphragm in model group,while in Xuebijing treatment group no necrosis was found. Conclusion The diaphragm was degenerated and necrotic in AOPP rats,Xuebijing injection can lessen the injury in such rats,and the curative effect may be related to the improvement of the Na+-K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPsae activities of diaphragm.

Unhealthy dietary habits and a sedentary lifestyle have led to a significant increase in the prevalence rate of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in children, adolescents, and adults. In recent years, the biological-psychological-social medical pattern has attracted more and more attention, and internal psychosocial factors have become an important influencing factor for disease progression, treatment, and prognosis. Studies have shown that patients with NAFLD may experience psychosocial disorders, and this article summarizes the common psychosocial problems of these patients.

Objective: To investigate the spatio-temporal distribution characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis in Ningbo City from 2015 to 2020, so as to provide insights into tuberculosis control. Methods: The data of pulmonary tuberculosis cases in Ningbo City from 2015 to 2020 were collected from Tuberculosis Management Information System of China Disease Control and Prevention Information System, and were linked with the geographic information database of Ningbo Planning Design and Research Institute. The software SaTScan version 10.3 was employed for monthly spatio-temporal scanning and cluster analysis of reported pulmonary tuberculosis cases, populations, longitude and latitude in 153 townships of Ningbo City from 2015 to 2020. Results: There were one class Ⅰ cluster and two class Ⅱ clusters of pulmonary tuberculosis cases in Ningbo City from 2015 to 2020, and the class Ⅰ cluster was centered in Song'ao Township and covered 37 townships, with aggregation time from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2017, while class Ⅱ clusters were covered 38 tounships which were centered in Sanqishi Township of Yuyao County, and one township in Hangzhou Bay New Town. The aggregation time was from January to June in 2015 and 2016, from March to August between 2017 and 2019 and between May and October, 2020. The overall reported incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis appeared a tendency towards a decline in each township of Ningbo City from 2015 to 2020; however, the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis was more than 80 per 100 thousand in Fuming Township of Yinzhou District and Juexi Township of Xiangshan County in 2020. Conclusions There were significant spatio-temporal clustering characteristics of pulmonary tuberculosis incidence at a township level in Ningbo City from 2015 to 2020, and the clusters were mainly concentrated in the central and eastern Ningbo City. The reported incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis is high in Fuming Township of Yinzhou District and Juexi Township of Xiangshan County, where targeted regional tuberculosis control strategies should be implemented.
