Objective To analyze the status of quality of life (QOL) and the related factors in pa-tients with uasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) after radiotherapy, and to explore the significance of intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in decreasing side effects and improving QOL. Methods A questionnaire including 35 items was designed according to EORTC QLQ-30 and the related symptoms and side effects of NPC. 142 NPC patients surviving with disease-free after radiotherapy were surveyed for the evaluation of QOL. The median follow-up was 25 months. The information of social demography and clinical details were collected. The patients were divided into IMRT group (75 patients) and conventional radiotherapy (CRT) group (67 patients). A statistical software package SAS 8.1 was used to compare the marks of QOL between the groups and analyze the influencing factors. Results In IMRT group and CRT group, the marks of affec-tire cognitive domain were 82.8±14.7 and 77.5±16.0(t=2.07, P=0.040);and the marks of disease and treatment-related symptoms, and reactive domain were 78.9±10.3 and 69.8±13.3 (t=4.59, P=0.000). The marks were significantly different in xerostomia, trismus, deglutitory choke, hoarseness, re-striction of neck movement and dysphagia (P < 0.05). Of the influencing factors of QOL, the domain of body function was sex (regression coefficient was -4.692), the self-evaluation of total QOL were follow-up time and educational background (regression coefficients were -0.618 and 12.316, respectively), the fi-nancial status was family monthly income per capita (regression coefficient was -11.133), and the disease and treatment-related symptoms and reactive domain were group (techniques of radiation) and age (regression coefficients were -9.384 and -5.853, respectively). Conclusions IMRT could improve the QOL through decreasing the side effects of patients with NPC including xerostomia, trismus, restriction of neck movement and dysphagia. Sex, age, family monthly income per capita, educational background, fol-low-up time and the irradiation techniques may affect QOL.

Objective:To explore solutions to the "grey zone" of activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) mixing study, and establish the clinical application pathway of it.Methods:Patients treated in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2019, with a prolonged APTT were included in this study. The ROC curve was used to analyze the"cut-off"of different methods and explore solutions to the "grey zone" by combination of the 1∶1 and 4∶1 mixing study. Similar samples from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 were included to verify the diagnostic efficiency of the clinical application pathway.Results:The traditional Rosner index criterion had a low diagnostic accuracy in differentiating factor deficiencies from inhibitors. A total of 49 cases (15%) in the establishment group and validation group were located in the "grey zone". The optimal cut-off value of the Rosner index in our 1∶1 mixing study for determining factor deficiency was 5.0%, and inhibitor was 9.1%. The sample between 5.0% and 9.0% needed 4∶1 mixing studies, which could significantly improve the detection sensitivity of inhibitors. The percentage of extended time after incubation-P (1∶1 mixing>10.8% and 4∶1 mixing>13.5%) was better than the traditional criterion mentioned by"consensus"in determining whether the inhibitor was time-dependent. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of combined the 1∶1 and 4∶1 mixing study in differentiating factor deficiencies from inhibitors all attained more than 90%. Only 7% (3/43)of inhibitors were incorrectly classified into the factor deficiency group by the combination, which was 20.9% (9/43) by traditional criterion. The specificity for detecting time-dependent inhibitor was increased from 54.2% to 100%, and accuracy was increased from 63.3% to 97.4%.Conclusions:The combination of 1∶1 and 4∶1 mixing study can better resolve the "grey zone". The established clinical application pathway is beneficial for the further promotion and clinical application of APTT mixing study.

Objective To investigate the effect of different administration methods of tranexamic acid on postoperative pulmonary inflammation response during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods A total of 64 SD rats were included in the study. They were randomly divided into eight different groups. CPB model was established for the operation groups. The rats in the operation groups were given tranexamic acid at low (25 mg/kg), medium (50 mg/kg) or high (100 mg/kg) concentrations before or after the CPB. Blood cells count and coagulation function were assessed 1 hour after surgery. The concentration of interleukin (IL)-1β、IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in blood and lung lavage fluid were measured. The infiltration of inflammatory cells in lungs was observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Results The concentration of inflammatory cells in the operation groups was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The use of tranexamic acid inhibited the increase of IL-6 and TNF-α in whole blood and lung lavage fluid due to CPB (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference among the experimental groups (P>0.05). Tranexamic acid could reduce the exudation of inflammatory cells in the lungs. Conclusion The use of tranexamic acid can effectively reduce the release of inflammatory factors and reduce acute lung injury caused by CPB in rat models. But simply increasing the dose or changing the timing of administration is not more effective in reducing the intensity of the inflammatory response.
