Objective To evaluate the efficacy of pivot-regulating manipulations applied in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) clinical nursing for infantile anorexia based on the meridian and acupoint theory. Methods One hundred and twenty children with anorexia were randomly divided into trial group and control group , 60 cases in each group. The control group was given spine-pinching therapy based on the conventional nursing care. The trial group was given pivot-regulating manipulations based on the conventional nursing care , and the pivot-regulating manipulations covered manipulating spleen -stomach meridian , regulating Neibagua, kneading Banmen, kneading abdomen, manipulating acupoints of Zhongwan, Tianshu and Zusanli, and pinching spine according to the deficiency-excess differentiation, once every other day and 3 times constituting one course of treatment. After treatment for 2 courses, the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated. The changes in TCM symptom scores and physical examination indexes of body height, body mass, head circumference, chest circumference, height-for-age (HT/A), weight-for-age (WT/A) in the two groups were observed before and after treatment. Results(1) Five cases(3 differentiated into excess syndrome and 2 into deficiency syndrome) of the trial group dropped out and quitted from the trial, and 6 cases of the control group dropped out and quitted from the trial. (2) After two courses of treatment, the total effective rate of the trial group was 94.55％, and that of the control group was 87.04％, the difference being significant (P < 0.05). (3) After treatment, the scores of appetite and food-intake amount, complexion and lip color, water intake, restlessness, and urination as well as TCM symptom scores in both groups were improved; the WT/A of the trial group was also improved (P < 0.05 compared with those before treatment). The trial group had better effect on improving the scores of appetite and food-intake amount, complexion and lip color, and restlessness as well as TCM symptom scores than the control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.001). The trial group also showed better effect on improving body mass, body height, head circumference, and HT/A than the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion As a nursing method based on the meridian and acupoint theory as well as syndrome differentiation and treatment, pivot-regulating manipulations are effective for the treatment of infantile anorexia by quickly starting an effect and obviously relieving the symptoms.

Objective: To investigate the effects of PRX-2 gene on phenotype changes in epidermal stem cells differentiating into sweat gland cells. Methods: Epidermal stem cells and sweat gland cells separated and cultured from healthy foreskin and adult full-thick skin respectively, were identified by immunofluorescence staining. Lentiviral vector-mediated overexpression and knockdown of PRX-2 gene in epidermal stem cells were performed respectively, with empty vector-mediated epidermal stem cells as a control group. Overexpression、blank control and knowdown group′s PRX-2 expressions in gene and protein levels were detected using RT-PCR and Western blot technology. The ESCs of each group were co-cultured with sweat gland cells through transwell plate, and the expressions of CEA and β1 integrin in epidermal stem cells were determined by flow cytometry before and after co-culturing. Results: Epidermal stem cells and sweat gland cells were in line with their respective specific antigens. Before co-cultured, epidermal stem cells highly expressed β1 integrin (98.69±0.67)%, hardly expressed CEA (6.20±3.15)%. After co-cultured, β1 integrin expression levels were showed as knockdown group (19.30±0.53)% blank control group (51.20±0.79)%> overexpress group (45.91±0.93)%. There had significant differences between those of each two groups. Conclusions PRX-2 gene can inhibit the phenotypic change of Epidermal Stem Cells differentiating into Sweat Gland Cells and improve the ability to maintain their own specific antigens.

OBJECTIVE: To report a patient with cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) manifesting as lumbago, hunchback and Parkinson's syndrome. METHODS: A 49-years-old male CADASIL patient was reported. Results of clinical examination, neuroimaging and genetic testing were analyzed. His family members were also subjected to genetic testing. Related literature was reviewed. RESULTS: The patient had no typical symptoms of CADASIL such as headache, repeated stroke, dementia and emotional disorders, but progressive Parkinson's syndrome, late onset lumbago, hunchback, dysphagia, and diplopia. Brain MRI showed left basal ganglia and external capsule lacunar infarction. Genetic testing revealed a point mutation c.1630C>T (p.R544C) in exon 11 of the NOTCH3 gene. A heterozygous mutation was detected in the same gene in his mother, elder sister and younger brother, all of whom showed different clinical phenotypes. CONCLUSION The clinical features of CADASIL are heterogeneous. Lumbago, humpback, and Parkinson's syndrome may be a rare clinical phenotype of CADASIL.

This article presents a case of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in a pregnant woman caused by coronary artery dissection. The 41-year-old patient had undergone cardiac valve surgery at the age of 1 and had no risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, smoking, alcohol use, or a family history of coronary artery disease. At 31 +1 weeks of gestation, she experienced sudden chest pain for 4 hours and was emergently referred to Peking University First Hospital on June 1, 2021. Electrocardiogram revealed ST-segment elevation in leads I, aVL, and V 2 to V 6. Biochemical assays showed elevated levels of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I and creatine kinase-MB. Echocardiography indicated segmental ventricular wall motion abnormalities (apical) and reduced left ventricular function, confirming the diagnosis of acute anterior wall STEMI. The patient promptly underwent emergency coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention and confirmed coronary artery dissection. Postoperative care included antiplatelet, anticoagulation, and supportive treatment. At 34 +3 weeks of gestation, with the condition of acute anterior wall STEMI being relatively stable, a cesarean section was successfully performed. Regular cardiology follow-ups were scheduled postpartum, and cardiac function was normal in two years after discharge.

Objective    To provide recommendations for the management of intensive care unit patients without novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Methods    We set up a focus group urgently and identified five key clinical issues through discussion. Total 23 databases or websites including PubMed, National Guideline Clearing-House, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention and so on were searched from construction of the library until February 28, 2020. After group discussion and collecting information, we used GRADE system to classify the evidence and give recommendations. Then we apply the recommendations to manage pediatric intensive care unit in the department of  critical care medicine in our hospital. Results    We searched 13 321 articles and finally identified 21 liteteratures. We discussed twice, and five recommendations were proposed: (1) Patients should wear medical surgical masks; (2) Family members are not allowed to visit the ward and video visitation are used; (3) It doesn’t need to increase the frequency of environmental disinfection; (4) We should provide proper health education about the disease to non-medical staff (workers, cleaners); (5) Medical staff do not need wear protective clothing. We used these recommendations in intensive care unit management for 35 days and there was no novel coronavirus infection in patients, medical staff or non-medical staff. Conclusion    The use of evidence-based medicine for emergency recommendation is helpful for the scientific and efficient management of wards, and is also suitable for the management of general intensive care units in emergent public health events.
