Objective To discuss the influence of respiratory training and prompting effective discharging of sputum for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients in acute aggravation period. Methods 50 patients were randomized into the intervention group and the control group with 25 cases in each group.The intervention group received respiratory training and prompting effective discharging of sputum while the control was only given routine treatment and nursing.The ratio of first second expiration volume to forced vital capacity, oxygen partial pressure (PaO2),carben dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2) ,blood oxygen saturation (SpO2)and the in-hospital days were compared between the two groups. Results The clinical effect in the intervention group was superior to that of the control group with shorter in-hospital days (P<0.01).Conclusion Better results could be obtained by application of respiratory training and prompting effective discharging of sputum for COPD patients in acute aggravation period.

The degradation performance and tissue compatibility of polyphosphazene/polyester or polyanhydride (PGP/PLGA or PGP/PSTP) blend films were investigated in mice. The results showed that the blend degradation rate could be regulated by adjusting PLGA or PSTP content in the blends. For example, the weight loss of PGP/PLGA (70:30 by wt) film was 68.4% after 55 days, whereas that of PGP/PSTP (70:30 by wt) was 88.5% only after 12 days. Also the mechanisms for in vivo degradation of blends of PGP/PLGA and PGP/PSTP were hydrolysed enzymatically and non-enzymatically, respectively. The tissue compatibility of PGP/PLGA was better than that of PGP/PSTP, and an increase of the percentage of PGP in PGP/PSTP blends would help improve the tissue compatibility. These findings suggested that polyphosphazene blends be potential materials applied in medical field.

Background and purpose: The literature on dose-volume parameters and pneumonitis is extensive. The results are inconsistent, both for the best predictive metrics and significant comorbid factors. This study aimed to investigate a prospective functional equivalent uniform dose (fEUD) with perfusion single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images as predictors of radiation pneumonitis (RP) in patients undergoing curative radiotherapy (RT). Methods: Functional lung imaging was performed using SPECT for perfusion imaging. Perfusion factors were defined as the mean percentile perfusion levels of the 4 areas, top to 75%, 75% to 50%, 50% to 25%, 25% to 0%, re-spectively. fEUD was calculated from perfusion factors and standard dose-volume parameters extracted from treatment planning computed tomography (CT) scans. Total lung (TL), ipsilateral (IL) and contralateral lung (CL) volumes minus gross tumor volume (GTV), whole-lung V5, V20, whole lung fEUD, IL and CL fEUD, and general equivalent uniform dose (gEUD) were analyzed to evaluate correlations between RP using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.03. Statistical significance was defined as P<0.05. Results: A total of 15 patients treated with intensity modulated RT or 3D conformal RT were analyzed, grades≥3 RP were observed in 6 patients. There was only a trend toward significance for unilateral (UL) fEUD of higher dose side (P=0.007). Whole-lung V5, V20 were almost identical between patients who developed pneumonitis and patients who did not, as the values were below the recommended thresholds from published papers. Unilateral fEUDs were linear with unilateral gEUDs (t=0.815, P=0.000). Conclusion: SPECT-based equivalent uniform dose appears to be a better predictor of RP compared to stan-dard dose-volume parameters. Planning constraints should aim to keep unilateral fEUD below 21 Gy.

Objective To evaluate the efficiency of BIOMED-2 system in detecting IGH gene clonal rearrangement and application in diagnosis of extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Methods Forty-five cases were collected, including 36 MALT lymphomas from different organs, 3 extranodal lymphoid tissue proliferative lesions and 6 severe gastritis associated with H pylori. DNA was extracted from the formalin fixed paraffin embedded blocks of these cases and the quality of DNA was assessed using the BIOMED-2 specimen mixed control primers. IGH gene clonal rearrangement was detected using IGH VH-JH primers. The sensitivity and specificity of BIOMED-2 PCR were analyzed.Results Adequate DNA (≥ 300 bp) was obtained in 31 of 45 samples (including 22 MALT lymphomas, 3 lymphoid tissue proliferative lesions and 6 severe gastritis), and the DNA from the other 14 samples was degraded seriously. 16 of 22 MALT lymphomas were positive of IGH clonal rearrangement with the sensitivity of 72.7 ％.In contrast,none of 6 severe gastritis was positive with the specificity of 100 ％ IGH and clonal rearrangement were detected in one of 3 lymphoid tissue proliferative lesions. Conclusion BIOMED-2 assay is an effient and reliable method for diagnosis and differential diagnosis of MALT lymphoma which is important for clinical practical value.

Objective To investigate the effects of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 activation by capsaicin on the oxidative stress in lipopolysaccharide-induced lung injury in mice in order to elucidate the potential mechanisms.Methods A total of 108 specific pathogen free (SPF) ICR male mice were randomly divided into six groups:normal control group (n =18),capsaicin control group (CAP control group,n =18),capsazepine control group (CAPZ control group,n =18),acute lung injury group (n =18),capsaicin treatment group (CAP treatment group,n =18) and capsazepine treatment group (CAPZ treatment group,n =18).After modeling,superoxide dismutase (SOD),catalase (CAT) and malondiachehyche (MDA) levels in lung were measured with the method of chromatometry,and the expression of heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) in lung tissue was assessed with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),while the level of NF-E2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) was determined by western blotting and the expression of Nrf2 mRNA was measured by RTPCR.Pathological changes of lung tissue were observed under light microscope.Results The activities of SOD and CAT in lung tissue at 3,8,16 h were dramatically lower in acute lung injury group than those in normal control group (P ＜ 0.05),while the level of MDA was higher.Compared with acute lung injury group,the lung levels of SOD and CAT at 8 h and 16 h were higher in CAP treatment group (P ＜0.05),while the lung level of MDA was lower (P ＜ 0.05).The levels of SOD and CAT in CAPZ treatment group were decreased at 8 h and 16 h,while the levels of MDA in this group were increased at 3,8,16 h (P ＜0.05).The pulmonary levels of HO-1,Nrf2 and expression of Nrf2 mRNA were significantly higher in acute lung injury group than those in normal control group (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with acute lung injury group,the levels of HO-1,NRF2 and expression of NRF2 mRNA were increased markedly in CAP treatment group (P ＜ 0.05)and were obviously decreased in CAPZ treatment group (P ＜0.05).At 8 h,16 h after modeling,the degree of lung damage was ameliorated in CAP treatment group compared with acute lung injury group under light microscope,while the lung damage was aggravated in CAPZ treatment group.Conclusions The activation of TRPV1 could apparently up-regulate the levels of CAT,SOD,Nrf2,HO-1,and reduce the MDA level in lung tissue of mice with acute lung injury,ultimately protecting the endotoxemia mice from oxidative stress.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational drug use and strengthen the management of adjuvant medication man-agement in the hospital. METHODS:1 080 and 860 discharged medical records of 12 Vitamins for injection were selected from our hospital during Jun.-Nov. 2014 (pre-special comment group,i.e. group A) and Jun.-Nov. 2015 (post-special comment group,i.e. group B),respectively. The application of 12 Vitamins for injection,hospitalization stay,drug cost and the incidence of ADR were compared before and after adjuvant medication special comment. RESULTS:After adjuvant medication special comments,the propor-tion of drug use of no indication,unsuitable solvent selection,irrational drug dosage,drug use of drug interaction and contraindica-tion,drug cost and the incidence of ADR in group B were all lower than in group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in hospitalization stay between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Clinical pharmacists adopt adju-vant medication special comments to effectively standardize clinical application of 12 Vitamins for injection in our hospital.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of the transverse rectus abdominismuscle (TRAM) on reconstruction of the breast.Methods:The clinical data of 23 patients receiving TRAM breast reconstruction in our department from Jan. 2018 to Dec. 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The operation time of 23 patients ranged from 240 to 360 mins, andthe average time was about 300 mins. Intraoperative bleeding was about 120 to 200 ml, with an average of 170 ml. All the flaps survived successfully, but 2 cases were complicated with local fat necrosis. The postoperative period was between 6 and 12 months. No local tumor recurrence or metastasis was found inall patients during postoperative follow-up, and the breast shape was maintained in good condition.Conclusion:TRAM can make up for the regret of breast loss caused by breast cancer in female patients.
