ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of modified Jinwei Guben Decoction （金卫固本汤， MJGD） combined with Bailing Capsule （百令胶囊， BC） in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） patients in the stable stage with qi deficiency， blood stasis and phlegm obstruction syndrome， in addition to conventional western medicine treatment. MethodsA total of 102 patients with stable COPD and qi deficiency， blood stasis， and phlegm obstruction syndrome were included in the study. According to the patients'preferences， they were divided into treatment group （49 cases） and control group （53 cases）. The control group received conventional western medicine treatment， while the treatment group was given MJGD （1 dose daily） combined with BC （2.0 g each time， three times a day） additionally. The treatment period was 3 months， and the patients were followed up for 1 year after the treatment. The acute exacerbation frequency （mild， moderate， severe） before treatment， during treatment， at 6-month follow-up， and at 1-year follow-up was compared between groups. Additionally， the lung function indicators such as FEV₁， FEV₁%pred， FVC， and FEV₁/FVC ratio， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome scores， modified British Medical Research Council （mMRC） dyspnea scale， and the COPD Assessment Test （CAT） scores before and after treatment were compared. A logistic regression model was constructed to analyze the impact of MJGD combined with BC on clinical efficacy. ResultsFour patients dropped out from the treatment group and eight from the control group， leaving 45 patients of each group for statistical analysis. The number of mild and moderate acute exacerbations in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group during the treatment period， at 6-month follow-up and within 1 year of follow-up （P＜0.05） .The number of severe acute exacerbations was only lower in the treatment group than in the control group at 6-month follow-up （P＜0.05）. Compared with that before treatment， the number of acute exacerbations of all degrees in the treatment group was significantly reduced within 1 year of follow-up （P＜0.05），while only the number of mild acute exacerbations in the control group was significantly reduced within 1 year of follow-up （P＜0.05）. The treatment group showed significant improvement in FEV₁ and FEV₁%pred and FEV₁/FEV， while the control group showed a significant decline in FEV₁ and FVC （P＜0.05）. After treatment， both groups showed significant reductions in TCM syndrome scores， including coughing， sputum， wheezing， chest tightness， shortness of breath， and fatigue， as well as mMRC and CAT scores （P＜0.05）， with the treatment group having significantly lower scores than the control group （P＜0.05）. The overall clinical effective rate of in the treatment group was 93.33% （42/45）， significantly higher than that of the control group， 75.56% （34/45， P＜0.05）. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the use of MJGD combined with BC （OR = 4.68， 95%CI： 1.15 - 19.09， P = 0.03） was positively correlated with clinical efficacy. ConclusionsIn addition to conventional western medicine treatment， the combination of MJGD and BC can reduce the frequency of acute exacerbations， delay the decline of lung function， improve clinical symptoms， and significantly enhance the clinical efficacy in patients with stable COPD and qi deficiency， blood stasis， and phlegm obstruction syndrome.

Objective: To investigate the environmental contamination of norovirus in nurseries and primary/secondary schools, so as to provide a scientific basis for effective prevention and control measures. Methods: A total of 483 external environmental samples were collected from 34 cluster outbreaks of norovirus gastroenteritis in kindergartens and primary/secondary schools in Linhai City from 2021 to 2024. Pathogen detection was conducted using a rapid nucleic acid extraction kit and realtime fluorescence RT-PCR, and the results were analyzed using the χ2 test or Fishers exact test. Results: Among the collected external environmental samples, the total positive rate of surface contamination was 13.66%. The positive rates in kindergartens and primary/secondary schools were 12.20% and 15.82%, respectively. In kindergartens, the five surfaces with the highest detection rates were desks/chairs (23.33%), toilet stool troughs (20.69%), urinal troughs (12.00%), washbasins/sinks (11.11%), and toilet mops (9.38%). In primary/secondary schools, the top five were toilet stool troughs (38.30%), urinal troughs (23.53%), toilet door handles (13.04%), toilet mops (12.50%), and drinking cups (11.11%). The difference in positive detection rates among different external environments in primary/secondary schools was statistically significant (Fishers exact probability test, P<0.01). The positive detection rate in sanitary toilets was higher than that in classroom environments (χ2=17.38), while the positive detection rate in classroom environments of kindergartens was higher than that in primary/secondary schools (χ2=5.42)(P<0.05). Conclusions Norovirus exhibits a high contamination rate in nurseries and schools, particularly in restroom areas. Strengthening sanitation and disinfection in highrisk environments, and improving hygiene awareness among children and staff, are essential for the effective prevent and control of norovirus.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of jujube core-shaped tissue resection technique in the treatment of alar reduction.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of patients who underwent alar reduction from February 2019 to June 2022. A spindle-shaped incision line was designed along the outer edge of the base of the nasal lobule, with a width of 4-5 mm and a length of 8-12 mm. The incision line was 1-2 mm away from the alar groove, and the inner side of the design line was extended to the inside of the nasal vestibule. After the incision was made, the subcutaneous tissue was undermining dissected with curved sharp scissors, and the shape of the extended excision tissue was similar to that of jujube core. After reduction, the incision was closed with vertical mattress suture. The surgical effect and complications were followed up after surgery, and an independent attending plastic surgeon evaluated the outcome and scarring based on photos before and at the last postoperative follow-up using the global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS) and the Vancouver scar scale (VSS). GAIS is graded as 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 points, and the lower the score, the better the improvement(≤3 points as effective improvement). VSS includes four parameters: color (0-3 points), thickness (0-4 points), vascular distribution (0-3 points), and softness (0-5 points). The higher the score, the more significant the scar is.Results:A total of 20 patients were enrolled, including 6 males and 14 females, aged 20 to 33 years, with an average age of 24.9 years. Before the operation, there were different degrees of alar flare and alar hypertrophy. After surgery, 13 patients had mild swelling, ecchymosis, which resolved after 3 days. There were no major complications as infection, incision dehiscence, and delayed healing. After 3 to 16 months of postoperative follow-up, 2 patients gradually developed cartilage deformation and affected the appearance of the nostrils 6 to 9 months after surgery due to the combination of rib-based rhinoplasty, and the satisfactory results were obtained after revision surgery. The symmetry of the nostrils was significantly improved. The GAIS score of 20 patients was (1.20±0.41) points, of which, 16 patients were rated as 1 point and 4 patients were rated as 2 points, all of which met the improvement criteria, and the VSS score was (1.45±0.60) points, in which the average score for color, thickness, vasculature and compliance are 0.60, 0.05, 0.55 and 0.30 points respectively.Conclusion:The application of jujube core-shaped tissue resection technique for alar reduction can increase the amount of tissue removal with the same incision width, which can not only fully narrow the alar effectively but also correct the hypertrophy of the alar tissue.

Objective:This study aimed to reveal the distribution and course of the branches of the infraorbital nerve(IN),its communication relationship between the branches of the infraorbital nerve and facial nerve,so as to provide morphological basis for clinical implementation of accurate infraorbital nerve trunk in the infraorbital canal,regional facial anesthesia and facial surgery,so as to improve the success rate of maxillofacial surgery.Methods:25 adult cada-vers with formalin immobilized semi-face were selected.Exclude facial defect samples caused by tumor,trauma,deformity,surgery,etc.The length and diameter of the trunk of the infraorbital nerve and the length of the infraorbital canal were measured.The total number of infraorbital nerve and the number of branches were counted,and the course,distribution and communication relationship between infraorbital nerve and facial nerve were investigated.Results:The length of infraorbital nerve trunk ranged from 19.61 to 44.47 mm,with an average length of(23.33±4.95)mm.The length of infraorbital canal ranged from 9.49 to 31.21 mm,with an average length of(12.87±3.99)mm.The number of infraorbital nerve branches ranged from 5 to 12,and the average number was(7.29±2.29).The number of upper labial branches was the widest,ranging from 1 to 5,while the distribution area of eyelid branches was the narrowest.There are(were)a large number of intersections and anastomoses between the infraorbital nerve and the facial nerve,forming a complex multi-layer network structure.Conclusion:The infraorbital nerve trunk and the infraorbital canal va-ry in length.The number and distribution range of infraorbital nerve branches are not constant,and the communication relationship between infraorbital nerve and facial nerve is complicated.

Background and purpose:In 2016 the National Cancer Institute(NCI)decided stopping to use NCI-60 cell lines for drug screening,suggesting that tumor cell lines were losing their value as a tool for drug discovery and basic research.The reason for NCI-60 cells'retirement'was that the preclinical studies based on traditional cellular and animal models did not obtain the corresponding expected efficacy in clinical trials.Since the major cancer behaviors,such as proliferation and metastasis,are fundamentally altered with long-term culture,the tumor cell lines are not representative of the characteristics of cancer in patients.Currently,scientists hope to create a new cancer model that are derived from fresh patient samples and tagged with details about their clinical past.Our purpose was to create patient-derived breast cancer primary cell lines as new cancer model for drug screening and basic research.Methods:Breast cancer tissues were collected in the Department of Breast Surgery,Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University.The collection of tumor tissue samples was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University(approval number:2022 ethics No.313),and the collection and use of tumor tissues complied with the Declaration of Helsinki.The primary breast cancer cell lines were isolated from the patient's breast cancer tissues and cultured in BCMI medium.After the cells proliferated,the media were replaced with DEME medium.Cell line STR genotyping was done to determine cell-specific genetic markers and identification.Clone formation assay and transplantation assay were done to analyze the ability of breast cancer primary cell lines to form tumors.Results:We created 6 primary breast cancer cell lines.The 6 primary breast cancer cell lines from the patients were tagged with the definitively clinicopathological features,clinical diagnosis,therapeutic regimens,clinical effectiveness and prognostic outcomes.The STR genotyping assays identified the genetic markers and determined the identities of the 6 primary breast cancer cell lines.Clone formation assays and transplantation assay showed that the proliferative capacities of the patient-derived primary breast cancer cell lines were significantly greater compared with the conventional breast cancer cell lines.Conclusion:We created a panel of 6 patient-derived primary breast cancer cell lines as new cancer model for drug screening and basic research in breast cancer.

Objective:To explore the suitable prostate cancer screening mode under the medical community for primary hospitals.Methods:From April 2021 to April 2022, a total of 16007 male population ≥50 years from 9 branches of the medical community of the second hospital of Yinzhou participated in this study. They were divided into four groups according to age with group 1 of 50-59 years old, group 2 of 60-69 years old, group 3 of 70-79 years old, and group 4 of 80 years old and above. Serum tPSA was added to the routine physical examination, and the screening positive patients were referred to the referral hospital for further diagnosis and treatment under the mode of medical community. We proposed multi-parametric MRI (mpMRI) for those with serum PSA ≥4 ng/ml and suspicious lesions should be scored according to PI-RADS V2. The ultrasound-guided transperineal targeted prostate biopsy was performed for those with PI-RADS ≥3 and those with PI-RADS < 3 but tPSA ≥10 ng/ml. The tPSA follow-up examinations were performed every 6 months for tPSA < 10 ng/ml and PI-RADS < 3 points and once a year for tPSA < 4 ng/ml.Results:Among the 16 007 male population ≥50 years, 2 007(12.54%) were found serum PSA ≥4 ng/ml, and 634(31.59%)were referred to the referral hospital through the medical community system. Combining tPSA and mpMRI, 271 patients underwent ultrasound-guided transperineal targeted prostate biopsy. Among them, 162 were finally diagnosed with PCa, with a biopsy positive rate of 59.78%. The detection rate of PCa in all the subjects was 1.01%. According to the pathological grade, 5(3.08%) were in ISUP group 1, 95(58.64%) in ISUP group 2-3, and 62(38.27%) in ISUP group 4-5. There were 102(62.96%), 39(24.07%) and 21(12.96%) with localized, locally advanced or metastatic PCa, respectively. The levels of tPSA in the four groups were (1.13±1.44)ng/ml, (1.77±3.45)ng/ml, (3.27±17.58)ng/ml, and (4.26±11.48)ng/ml, respectively, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). The positive number of biopsy in each group was 1 case(0.06%), 56 cases(0.79%), 81 cases(1.36%) and 24 cases(1.82%) respectively, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). The number of ISUP 4-5 grades in each group was 0, 17(30.35%), 29(35.80%), and 16(66.67%) respectively, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Based on the medical community system, according to the tPSA screening results of the primary hospitals, it is feasible and effective to refer suspicious patients to the referral hospitals for mpMRI examination, and screen prostate cancer by ultrasound-guided transperineal prostate fusion biopsy.

Objective:To explore potential predictors of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (RMPP) in early stage. Methods:The prospective multicenter study was conducted in Zhejiang, China from May 1 st, 2019 to January 31 st, 2020. A total of 1 428 patients with fever >48 hours to <120 hours were studied. Their clinical data and oral pharyngeal swab samples were collected; Mycoplasma pneumoniae DNA in pharyngeal swab specimens was detected. Patients with positive Mycoplasma pneumoniae DNA results underwent a series of tests, including chest X-ray, complete blood count, C-reactive protein, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and procalcitonin. According to the occurrence of RMPP, the patients were divided into two groups, RMPP group and general Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (GMPP) group. Measurement data between the 2 groups were compared using Mann-Whitney U test. Logistic regression analyses were used to examine the associations between clinical data and RMPP. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to analyse the power of the markers for predicting RMPP. Results:A total of 1 428 patients finished the study, with 801 boys and 627 girls, aged 4.3 (2.7, 6.3) years. Mycoplasma pneumoniae DNA was positive in 534 cases (37.4%), of whom 446 cases (83.5%) were diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia, including 251 boys and 195 girls, aged 5.2 (3.3, 6.9) years. Macrolides-resistant variation was positive in 410 cases (91.9%). Fifty-five cases were with RMPP, 391 cases with GMPP. The peak body temperature before the first visit and LDH levels in RMPP patients were higher than that in GMPP patients (39.6 (39.1, 40.0) vs. 39.2 (38.9, 39.7) ℃, 333 (279, 392) vs. 311 (259, 359) U/L, both P<0.05). Logistic regression showed the prediction probability π=exp (-29.7+0.667×Peak body temperature (℃)+0.004×LDH (U/L))/(1+exp (-29.7+0.667×Peak body temperature (℃)+0.004 × LDH (U/L))), the cut-off value to predict RMPP was 0.12, with a consensus of probability forecast of 0.89, sensitivity of 0.89, and specificity of 0.67; and the area under ROC curve was 0.682 (95% CI 0.593-0.771, P<0.01). Conclusion:In MPP patients with fever over 48 to <120 hours, a prediction probability π of RMPP can be calculated based on the peak body temperature and LDH level before the first visit, which can facilitate early identification of RMPP.
