Objective To explore the influence of nursing intervention on the social support and compliance of parents of severe β-Mediterranean anemia children. Methods A total of 100 cases of Mediterranean anemia children’s parents were surveyed with the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) and self-made compliance questionnaires, the investigation was performed before the intervention,6 months, 1 year after the intervention. Results The scores of objective support, subjective support and supporting availability after the intervention were all higher than those before intervention (F=269.04, 125.12, 243.04, all P<0.01). In the pairwise comparison tests, the ranks of objective support score and subjective support score were:1 year after intervention>6 months after intervention>before intervention (P<0.01);the score of supporting availability was lower than the scores of 6 months and 1 year after intervention (P<0.01). The compliance of blood transfusion on time and taking deferoxamine on time before and after the interventions had statistical meanings (Hc=100.40,70.53, all P<0.01). In the pairwise comparison tests, the compliance score before intervention was lower than the score after intervention (P < 0.01). Conclusions Nursing intervention can improve the social support and compliance of the parents with severe Mediterranean anemia children.

ObjectiveTo evaluate prognosis and its clinical factors in patients with primary pontine hemorrhage. Methods Patients with primary pontine hemorrhage who were hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical College within 24 hours after stroke onset between April 2007 and April 2009 were registered conscutively. The patients were followed up for one year. Kaplan-Meier methods were used to analyze survival rate. Cox proportional hazards model was used to study risk factors for 1-year mortality. ResultsA total of 41 patients with primary pontine hemorrhage were studied. Their mean age was (63.5 ± 10. 1 ) years.The overall 1-year mortality rate was 61.0％, the median survival time was (80. 0 ±54.4) days (95％ CI 0-186. 64). After one-year follow-up, the mortality rate in patients with primary dorsal pontine hemorrhage( 18.2％ ) was significantly lower than that in patients with primary ventral pontine hemorrhage(72. 7％ ; x2 = 8. 800, P = 0. 003 ). Patients with massive primary pontine hemorrhage had significantly higher mortality rate than patients with dorsal primary pontine hemorrhage( x2 = 8. 927, P =0. 003). The average hematoma volume of the survivor group and mortality group was (3. 043 ± 1. 718) ml and (5. 984 ± 2. 707) ml, respectively, showing statistical significance (t = 3. 661, P = 0. 001 ). Analysis with Cox proportional hazards model showed that the risk factors associated with mortality were hematoma location ( RR = 2. 428, 95 ％ CI 1. 055-5. 587 ), hematoma volume ( RR = 1. 283, 95 ％ CI 1. 044-1. 577 ),GCS score on admission(RR =3. 389, 95％ CI 1. 177-9. 756). Patients with pontine hematomas in dorsal had a significantly better outcome than in other locations.Conclusions The survival and prognosis in primary dorsal pontine hemorrhage are better than with hemorrhaging in other parts of pontine. A significant correlation was observed between poor prognosis and hematoma volume, hematoma location and GCS score on admission.

Objective To investigate the association between SLC10A1 gene mutations in c.800G>A mutation and c.356 +1098C >T mutation, and the susceptibility to HBV infection by mother-to-child transmission ( MTCT) .Methods Totally 306 individuals born to HBeAg-positive mothers with high load HBV and without receiving nucleotide analogues treatment, including 247 HBV-infected cases and 59 non-HBV-infected ones were enrolled from Southwest Hospital during May 2011 and July 2015.Blood samples were collected from all the subjects, then genomic DNA was extracted and c.800G>A mutation and c.356+1098C>T mutation of SLC10A1 were genotyped .Chi-square test (Pearsonχ2or continuity correctionχ2) was performed to identify the difference in genotypes between two groups.Results Among vaccinated individuals (55 HBV infected and 56 not infected), the frequency of genotype GA of c.800G>A mutation in non-infected ones was 14.3%(8/56), there was a tendency of increasing compared with HBV infected ones (5.5%, 3/55), but the difference was not statistically significant (χ2 =2.424, P =0.119). Similarly, the frequencies of genotypes CC, CT and TT of the c.356+1098C>T mutation in HBV infected ones were 20.0%(11/55), 47.3%(26/55) and 32.7%(18/55), while those in non-infected ones were 12.5% (7/56), 69.6% (39/56) and 17.9% (10/56), and the difference was not of statistical significance (χ2 =5.766, P=0.056).In all subjects (vaccinated and non-vaccinated), the frequency of genotype GA of c.800G>A mutation in non-HBV infected group had an increasing tendency compared with HBV-infected offspring (13.6% vs.6.9%), but the difference was not statistically significant (χ2 =2.010, P=0.156);the frequencies of genotype CC, CT and TT of c.356+1098C>T mutation in HBV infected patients were 20.2%(50/247), 49.8%(123/247) and 30.0%(74/247), while those in non-HBV-infected group were 11.9%(7/59), 69.5%(41/59) and 18.6%(11/59), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =7.436, P =0.024 ) .Within the HBV infected group, the frequencies of genotype GA of c.800G>A mutation were 5.5%(3/55) in vaccinated individuals and 7.3%(14/192) in non-vaccinated individuals, and the difference was not of statistical significance (χ2 =0.030, P=0.863);Similarly, the frequencies of genotype CC, CT and TT of c.356 +1098C >T mutation in vaccinated individuals were 20.0%(11/55), 47.3%(26/55) and 32.7%(18/55), while those in non-vaccinated individuals were 20.3%(39/192), 50.5%(97/192) and 29.2%(56/192), and the difference was not of statistical significance (χ2 =0.274, P=0.872).Conclusion c.356+1098C>T mutation in SLC10A1 may be associated with susceptibility to HBV infection of child born in HBeAg positive pregnant women infected with high load HBV.

Objective To explore the relationship between the CHADS2 score and short-term prognosis in acute ischemic stroke patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation. Methods Consecutive ischemic stroke patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation who were hospitalized within 7 days after stroke were registered.Patients were divided into 3 groups on the basis of CHADS2 pre-stroke score (0 to 1,2,3to 6).And recovery was assessed by modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 3 months follow-up (mRS ≤ 2reflected good prognosis,and mRS ≥ 5 implicated unfavorable outcome).After screening the risk factors affecting prognosis using univariate analysis,the relationship between CHADS2 score and prognosis was estimated using logistic regression model.Results Of 203 patients enrolled,the CHADS2 score of 0-1,2,3-6 were present in 72,53 and 78 respectively.Patients with the higher CHADS2 score had a higher initial NIHSS score (9.8,12.6,13.0,F =3.404,P =0.008 ),more likely to receive nosocomial pulmonary infection( 12.5％,34.0％,39.7％,x2 =14.643,P =0.001 ),negatively related to good prognosis (x2 =28.542,P =0.000 ) and positively related to unfavorable outcome ( x2 =23.575,P =0.000 ).Logistic regression model results suggested that CHADS2 score was an independent predictor of good prognosis and unfavorable outcome. Compared with CHADS2 score 3-6, CHADS2 score 0-1 was independently associated with good prognosis ( OR =5.018,95 ％ CI 2.055-12.560 ).And compared with CHADS2 score 0-1,CHADS2 score 3-6 was independently associated with unfavorable outcome ( OR =6.197,95％ CI1.670-22.996 ).Conclusions CHADS2 pre-stroke score appears to be useful in prediction of stroke outcome for patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.After acute ischemic stroke,the patients with the lower CHADS2 score (0-1) are more likely to achieve good prognosis,inversely,the patients with the higher CHADS2 score (3-6) are more likely to achieve unfavorable outcome.

Objective To investigate the correlation of clinicopathological features and maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) detected by 18F-FDG PET-CT in pulmonary large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma(LCNEC).Methods The clinicopathological data of 43 pulmonary LCNEC patients who underwent 18F-FDG PET-CT and were confirmed by pathology in the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University From October 2009 to May 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed on factors that may affected SUVmax in the primary tumor,including the patient's age,gender,tumor location,tumor type,tumor maximum diameter,T stage,N stage,M stage,and TNM stage.Results The SUVmax and tumor maximum diameter of 43 pulmonary LCNEC patients were 11.9 ±4.9 and (3.2±1.4) cm,and there was a positive relation between SUVmax and tumor maximum diameter (r =0.533,P =0.000).The univariate analysis showed that SUVmax was correlated with tumor maximum diameter,T stage,N stage,M stage and TNM stage (all P ＜ 0.05),but was not correlated with patient's age,gender,tumor location,and tumor type (all P ＞ 0.05).The multivariate analysis showed that tumor location,N stage,M stage and TNM stage were the independent influencing factors of SUVmax (OR =2.087,2.852,2.315,-2.200,all P ＜ 0.05).Primary tumor SUVmax had predictive value for lymph node metastasis,when the cut-off value was 13.5,the diagnostic efficiency was the highest,the sensitivity was 64.7 ％,and the specificity was 92.3 ％.Conclusions The SUVmax detected by 18F-FDG PET-CT in pulmonary LCNEC is correlated with tumor maximum diameter,N stage,M stage and TNM stage.Primary tumor SUVmax has a certain reference value for predicting lymph node metastasis.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic combined with choledochoscopy for choledocholithotomy and primary suture. Methods 82 patients who underwent laparoscopic combined with choledochoscopy for choledocholithotomy and primary suture from Hechi People's Hospital from June 2016 to August 2018 were enrolled as study objects. They were divided into study group and control group according to the different treatment methods of common bile duct incision. 40 patients in the study group underwent primary suture of the common bile duct and 42 patients in the control group underwent T-tube drainage. The surgical outcomes and complications of the 2 groups were compared. Results All the patients in the two groups were operated smoothly and there were no cases of conversion to open surgery. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative ambulation time, time of removal of abdominal drainage tube, and hospitalization time were lower in the study group than those in the control group, but the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The incidence of electrolyte disturbance, postoperative recovery time, and hospitalization cost in the study group were lower than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidence of surgical complications in the study group was lower than that in the control group, but the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion Laparoscopic combined with choledochoscopy for choledocholithotomy and primary suture in the treatment of intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones has good curative effect, rapid recovery, less internal environment disorder and low hospitalization cost. It is safe and feasible.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Neurotensin is a gut-brain peptide with both inhibitory and excitatory actions on the colonic musculature; our objective was to understand the implications of this for motor patterns occurring in the intact colon of the rat. METHODS: The effects of neurotensin with concentrations ranging from 0.1-100 nM were studied in the intact rat colon in vitro, by investigating spatio-temporal maps created from video recordings of colonic motility before and after neurotensin. RESULTS: Low concentration of neurotensin (0.1-1 nM) inhibited propagating long distance contractions and rhythmic propagating motor complexes; in its place a slow propagating rhythmic segmental motor pattern developed. The neurotensin receptor 1 antagonist SR-48692 prevented the development of the segmental motor pattern. Higher concentrations of neurotensin (10 nM and 100 nM) were capable of restoring long distance contraction activity and inhibiting the segmental activity. The slow propagating segmental contraction showed a rhythmic contraction—relaxation cycle at the slow wave frequency originating from the interstitial cells of Cajal associated with the myenteric plexus pacemaker. High concentrations given without prior additions of low concentrations did not evoke the segmental motor pattern. These actions occurred when neurotensin was given in the bath solution or intraluminally. The segmental motor pattern evoked by neurotensin was inhibited by the neural conduction blocker lidocaine. CONCLUSIONS: Neurotensin (0.1-1 nM) inhibits the dominant propulsive motor patterns of the colon and a distinct motor pattern of rhythmic slow propagating segmental contractions develops. This motor pattern has the hallmarks of haustral boundary contractions.
