Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of intervertional devascularization and surgical devascularization in treatment of patients with upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage .Methods Ninety-nine cases treated with intervertional devaacularization or surgical devascularization were retrospectively studied including 48 cases in intervertional group and 51 cases in surgical group.The postoperative resection, complications and rebleeding time were compared by X2 test and t test between two methods.Results The 12 months, 24 months and 36 months cumulative rebleeding rates after intervertional devascularization were 12.5% (6/47) ,24.5% (11/45), 27.9% (12/43) respectively.The rate after surgical devaacularization were 29.2% (14/48) ,44.7% (21/47), 48.9% (22/45) respectively.There were statistically significant differences between the intervertional and surgical groups (X2=3.843,4.150,4.083, P < 0.05).The complications of intervertional devascularization included fever 85.4% (41/48), bellyache 81.3% (39/48), portalvein thrombosis 4.2% (2/48), intraabdominal hemorrhage 2.1% (1/48), infection 2.1% (1/48) and death 2.1% (1/48).The complications of surgical devaacularization included fever 68.6% (35/51), bellyache 62.7% (32/51), generous hydroperitoneum 25.5% (13/51), portalvein thrombosis 37.3% (19/51), splenic vein thrombosis 11.8% (6/51), hepatic encephalopathy 3.9% (2/51), hepatorenal syndrome 2.0% (1/51), intraabdominal hemorrhage 2.0% (1/51), death 3.9% (2/51) and infection 15.7% (8/51).There were statistically significant differences of fever, bellyache, generous hydroperitoneum, portalvein thrombosis, splenic vein thrombosis between the intervertional and surgical groups(X2=4.174,3.098,16.199,6.011,5.536,14.085,P <0.05).Conclusions The intervertional devascularization procedure is simple, safe and effective method for treating upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage for portal hypertensive.The clinical effect is better than that of surgical devascularization.

Objective To assess the value and feasibility of 64-slice spiral CT in diagnosis of coronary artery aneurysm in the follow-up of young children with previous Kawasaki disease. Methods Twelve boys (mean age 5.1 years) for follow-up (ranged 1.1 to 5.1 years) with known Kawasaki disease and coronary artery aneurysms underwent coronary CT angiography using 64-slice spiral CT.The number,location,shape and size of each coronary artery aneurysm were recorded and compared with those of echocardiography performed simutaneously. Results A total of 30 coronary artery aneurysms were identified with mean diameter of(7.5±3.8) mm,and mean maximum length of (12.4±9.1) mm.10 aneurysms were small in size,7 aneurysms were medium in size and 13 were giant aneurysms.Fourteen aneurysms were saccular,and the remaining 16 were fusiform. Among the aneurysms in left coronary artery,7 of them were located in the main branch,9 were located in the proximal segment of the anterior descending branch,4 were located at the middle segment of the anterior descending branch,and 2 were located in the circumflex branch.Among the aneurysms in right coronary artery,6 of them were located in the proximal segment,9 were located in the middle segment,and 4 were located at the distal segment.Nine of the aneurysms involved 2 segments of the coronary arteries,and one involved 3 segments.Six stenotic segments were found. Calcification was found in 5 aneurysms and 3 of them had thrombosis. Echocardiography failed to detect 8 aneurysms of small size and located in the middle or distal segments of the coronary arterys.Conclusion The 64-slice CT angiography proved valuable for monitoring young children with Kawasakidisease.

Objective: To investigate the community promotion feasibility of superficial needling plus club swing for post-stroke motion impairment of the shoulder joint. Methods:A total of 180 cases (duration <1.5 years) with post-stroke motion impairment of the shoulder joint were recruited from three community health centers in Changning District, 60 from each community. They were randomly allocated into an observation group (n=90) and a control group (n=90). Patients in both groups received standard internal and rehabilitation care. Patients in the observation group received additional superficial needling plus club swing. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was conducted before and 60 d after the treatment to evaluate the severity of shoulder pain. The active movement of the shoulder joint and activities of daily living (ADL) were also observed. Results:There were no between-group statistical differences before the treatment (allP>0.05). After a 60-day treatment, the shoulder pain severity, active range of motion of the shoulder joint and ADL in the observation group were significantly improved than those in the control group (allP<0.01). In addition, no adverse events were reported by participants in the observation group. Conclusion:Superficial needling plus club swing plays a positive role in improving post-stroke motion impairment of the shoulder joint. This safe, reliable and economical therapy has good patient compliance and is suitable for community promotion.

Objective To establish nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line (CNE1) with eIF1 gene stable over-expression and to study its effects on the proliferation and migration of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells.Methods EIF1 over-expression vector was constructed by adopting the pEGFPC1 eukaryotic expression system for transfecting nasopharyngeal carcinoma CNE1 cells.Thus the stably transfected EIF1-elF1 and its control cells were obtained.The over-expression situation of eIF1 in these cells was verified by real time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR) and Western blot.The proliferation and migration activity of CNE1-eIF1 cells were tested by adopting the cell proliferation and migration tests.Results The enzyme digestion electrophoresis identification and sequencing showed that the pEGFPC1-eIF1 eukaryotic expression vector was successfully constructed.After mRNA and protein expression identification,compared with the reloading plasmid transfection group,the eIF1 gene mRNA and protein expression levels in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE1 stably over-expressing eIF1 were up-regulated by 2.85 folds and 2.58 folds respectively (P＜ 0.05),while its proliferation and migration activities were down-regulated by 55 ％ and 36 ％ respective (P＜ 0.05).Conclusion The nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line over-expressing elF1 is successfully constructed,the eIF 1 over-expression could significantly down-regulate the proliferation and migration activities of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells,suggesting that eIF1 has potential anti-tumor effect.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis for a child featuring global developmental disorder with epilepsy. METHODS: A child who had presented at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center in July 2022 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data was collected. Potential variant was detected by whole exome sequencing (WES). Candidate variant was validated by Sanger sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS: The child, a three-year-old ethnic Zhuang Chinese girl, had presented with global developmental disorder and epilepsy, for which rehabilitation therapy was ineffective. Genetic testing revealed that she has harbored a homozygous c.821T>C (p.Leu274Pro) missense variant of the PIGW gene, for which both of her parents and sister were heterozygous carriers. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the variant was classified as variant of uncertain significance. CONCLUSION The homozygous c.821T>C (p.Leu274Pro) variant of the PIGW gene probably underlay the onset of disease in this child. Above finding has enriched the mutational spectrum of the PIGW gene.

Objective:To summarize and analyze the clinical treatment of aspergillus infection in the central nervous system.Methods:Data was obtained from a recipient who were diagnosed with invasive aspergillosis in the central nervous system after liver transplantation.We retrospectively analyzed the clinical character of the recipient." Liver transplantation" , " Aspergillus" , " brain" and " aspergillus" were searched for literature published in English or Chinese in Wanfang data, CNKI and PubMed database for nearly 5 years until January 2022.Results:A 33 years old recipient was admitted to the hospital with fatigue, chest distress and shortness of breath after liver transplantation on postoperative day(POD)48.On the computed tomography(CT)scan of the chest, multiple exudative lesions was observed in both lungs.Multiple sputum cultures were grown as Candida albicans.The symptoms of chest tightness and shortness of breath were significantly improved by treating with caspofungin compared before.On POD 79, the recipient developed stubborn nausea and vomiting.Cranial enhanced magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)showed central nervous system(CNS)infection.Numerous traditional pathogenic microorganisms tests of cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)were all negative.With the help of metagenomics next generation sequencing(mNGS), aspergillus fumigatus was detected in CSF.The recipient received therapy with voriconazole and rehabilitation.Therapy with voriconazole was continuous for 8 months.Unfortunately, the recipient developed cholestasis due to repeated biliary infection and eventually died of liver failure 13 months later.Conclusions:Although the mortality rate of aspergillus infection in the central nervous system is very high after liver transplantation, timely and effective treatment is still expected to improve its prognosis.

Objective:To explore the effect of adult growth hormone deficiency on cognitive function in adults.Methods:A total of 19 hypophyseal or craniopharyngioma patients who underwent surgical treatment and were diagnosed with adult growth hormone deficiency in Department of Endocrinolog, the Second Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University from June 2017 to June 2018 were selected as the case group, and 19 normal people were included as the control group. All the members were assessed with the cognitive function scale and brain functional magnetic resonance examination, data between the groups were analyzed.Results:The body weight within a year of case group was significantly increased than that of the control group( P=0.017). Compared with the control group, the case group was relatively inattentive and had decreased memory(Time of stroop color words test-a, test-c, and trail-making test-A, P values were 0.009, 0.018, 0.020 respectively; Auditory word learning test N6, P=0.008). The executive function and language ability of the case group were weakened compared with the control group(Raven′s matrices score E1-E12, P=0.022; Time cost and the number of arrivals in 1 min of connection test B, P values were 0.023, 0.004; Symbol digit modalities test, P=0.037; The number of words spoken in 46-60 s and total number in 0-60 s of the case group was less than the control, P values were 0.030, 0.006). The general mental state of the case group was worse than the control group( P=0.018). The accuracy of the 2-back task of the case group was significantly lower and the activation signal of the left frontal lobe in the case group was significantly weaker( P<0.005). Conclusions:Adult growth hormone deficiency may increase obesity risk and have a detrimental influence on patients′ overall mental health, resulting in varying degrees of cognitive impairment. Working memory impairments associated with adult growth hormone deficiency may be a result of decreased frontal lobe brain activity.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the onset of cerebral infarction in anterior and posterior circulation and the "three high" risk factors in Guangzhou communities. Methods From Jan. 2014 to Jan.2016,367 patients from Guangzhou communities were diagnosed with new cerebral infarction by head diffu-sion weighted imaging(DWI).The data were divided into two groups of anterior and posterior circulation,and uni-variate and multivariate methods were used to analyze the relationship between the "three high" and other risk factors and the onset of cerebral infarction in anterior and posterior circulation.The data of anterior circulation cere-bral infarction were further divided into two subgroups of lacunar and non-lacunar infarction,and the same statisti-cal methods were employed to analyze differences of risk factors between the two subgroups. Results The frequen-cies of hypertension(P = 0.040)and large atherosclerotic infarction(P = 0.012)were significantly higher,and the serum high-density lipoprotein(HDL)level(P = 0.045)was significantly lower in posterior circulation than those in anterior circulation,respectively;and the onset of posterior circulation cerebral infarction was more associ-ated with the incidence of hypertension(OR = 1.767,P = 0.035)and the decrease of HDL(OR = 0.380,P =0.021). In anterior circulation,the levels of systolic blood pressure(SBP)(P = 0.011)and diastolic blood pres-sure(DBP)(P=0.000),as well as the frequency of large atherosclerotic infarction(P=0.000)in non-lacunar infarction subgroup were significantly higher than those in lacunar infarction subgroup respectively,and the onset of non-lacunar infarction was more closely related to increased SBP levels(OR=1.045,P=0.001). Conclusions Among the"three high"risk factors,the onset of posterior circulation cerebral infarction is more closely related to the incidence of hypertension and the decrease of HDL.In anterior circulation,and the onset of non-lacunar infarc-tion is more closely related to the increased levels of DBP and SBP,especially to the elevated levels of SBP.
