Many studies have been conducted at home and abroad about carotid artery stenting to treat carotid artery stenosis. However, it is limited by the complications such as perioperative ischemia. Carotid artery stenting with cerebral protection devices can omit the procedure to block blood flow and can know the treatment condition through angiography. The results of comprehensive data show that carotid artery stenting is an efficient treatment technique, and can reduce the biocompatible responses of the host. In addition, carotid artery stenting with cerebral protection devices is a safe and effective therapy for high-riskcarotid artery atherosclerotic stenosis in the elderly.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for rational use of Shexiang tongxin dripping pills in clinic. METHODS:In retrospective study,the utilization of Shexiang tongxin dripping pills in outpatients and inpatients of our hospital during Jan. 2014-May 2015 was analyzed statistically in terms of gender,age,department,irrational drug use,ADR and DUI,etc. RE-SULTS:There were 719 outpatient prescriptions and 281 inpatient medical orders. The female was more than male with ratio of 1.42:1. Most patients aged 80-89 year-old(35.4%). Shexiang tongxin dripping pills were mostly used in cardiovascular medicine de-partment(760 pieces/copies,76.0%). There were 72 prescriptions/medical orders that did not conform to the indications(7.2%), and 7 prescriptions/medical orders for overdose use(0.7%). No obvious ADR was found. DUI of Shexiang tongxin dripping pills was 1.007. CONCLUSIONS:Although the clinical use of Shexiang tongxin dripping pills in our hospital is basically rational,there still are some nonstandard uses,which should be taken seriously. In order to reduce ADR,the clinical use of Shexiang tongxin dripping pills should be strictly in accordance with the drug instructions and should emphasize the syndrome differentiation based on treatment.

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 nursing points of pancreatic leakage after upper abdominal multiple organ transplantation. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on the nursing experience of two patients with end-stage liver disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus who were complicated with pancreatic leakage after upper abdominal multiple organ transplantation from March 2009 to July 2015. Results The blood glucose of these patients returned to normal level within 1 week after operation and insulin was discontinued. Pancreatic leakage was occurred in the two patients at 14 and 21 days after operation, respectively. They were both successfully discharged after active treatments and nursing cares including completely drainage, the application of drugs that inhibited the secretion of pancreatic enzymes and digestive tract glands, strengthening infection control, nutritional support and other conservative treatments. Conclusions It is the key to improve the recovery of pancreatic leakage after upper abdominal multiple organ transplantation with careful observation of abdominal signs and abdominal drainage tube, accurate use of somatostatin, nutritional support, maintenance of water and electrolyte balance, and psychological intervention.

Objectives To investigate the changes of cystatin C in the serum of patients with acute kidney injury ( AKI) or end-stage renal disease ( ESRD), and study its significance in the early diagnosis of AKI and its correlation with the degree of renal function injury. Method The cases in Xiangya hospital were enrolled in this study according to the RIFLE criteria, including 20 cases of slight acute kidney injury, 30 cases of medium-severe acute kidney injury, 48 cases of victims of the 5. 12 wenchuan earthquake, 32 cases of end-stage renal disease and 20 healthy patients. The microparticle-enhanced immunoturbidimetry method was used to detect serum cystatin C, and the colorimetric method was used to detect urine N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAGase). The enzymic method was used to detect serum creatinine. The correlation between serum cystatin C and serum creatinine was analyzed, and the sensitivity and specificity of serum cystatin C were evaluated with the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve). Results Compared with healthy control group, the serum cystatin C increased obviously in acute kidney injury group and ESRD group( P <0. 05 and P <0. 01). The serum cystatin C was positively correlated with serum creati-nine( P <0.01). The serum cystatin C in the 5. 12 wenchuan earthquake injured group was also higher than that in healthy control group ( P <0.05), an the serum cystatin C had an AUC - ROC of 0.931 ( P <0. 01). Conclusion Compared to the conventional biomarkers, the earlier emergence of serum cystatin C can contribute better to early clinical diagnosis of AKI. The serum cystatin C is positively correlated with renal function, and reflect changes in renal function accurately.

Objective To investigate the effects of sevoflurane and propofol on postoperative cognitive function after abdominal surgery for elderly patients with diabetes. Methods Seventy diabetic patients (aged 60~75 yr, ASAⅠorⅡ) underwent abdominal surgery and are included in the research. Diabetic patients were randomly divided into two groups (n=35): sevoflurane group(group DS) and propofol group (group DP). MMSE score, the attachment test, words memory test and Stroop color word test were carried and the results were recorded before operation (T1), postoperative 24 h (T2), 48 h (T3) and 1 w (T4). Results Compared with T1, patients′ MMSE score reduced at T2 and T3. Time spent in attachment test is longer at T2 and T3. Mistaken incidences in Stroop color words test 1, 2 and 3 are higher and time longer at T2. Time spent on Stroop color words test 2 and 3 is longer in T3. Words memory test reveals decline at T2 and T3, whose difference is statistically significant (P < 0.05). Cognitive dysfunction incidence in the two groups shows no statistical significance (P > 0.05). Conclusion Sevoflurane and propofol can result in postoperative cognitive dysfunction for elderly patients with diabetes within 48 h after abdominal surgery, there were no difference between the effects of them.

This study was aimed to observe the effect of Compound Shi-Chang-Pu (CSCP) granula on behavior, structure changes of hippocampus with epileptic seizure of mice induced by pentyenetetrazole (PTZ). Sixty Kunming mice, which were half male and half female, were randomly divided into 6 groups, which were the blank control group, animal model, phenytoin (PHT) group, high-dose CSCP (4 000 mg·kg-1) group, middle-dose CSCP (2 000 mg·kg-1) group and low-dose CSCP (1 000 mg·kg-1) groups. The blank group and model group were given intragas-tric administration the same volume of saline, the others animals treated with continuous oral administration of drugs for 7 days. Intraperitoneal injection of PTZ (80 mg·kg-1) was given 1 h after the last medication to establish the a-cute epilepsy model (expect the blank control group). Observation was made on the influence of CSCP on incubation period, behavior degree and times of epileptic seizure among PTZ induced epilepsy mice, the structure changes of mice were detected by the brain tissue HE staining. The results showed that CSCP can improve the degree of seizure attack, prolong the incubation period of mild attack, and decrease Ⅳ and Ⅴ degree epileptic seizure, the PTZ in-duced epilepsy mice could damage the structure of hippocampus, reduce the number of cells, PHT and CSCP could ameliorate these changes. It was concluded that CSCP had certain inhibition on epileptic seizure mice induce by PTZ and ameliorate the damage of hippocampus. The antiepileptic mechanism still requires futher study.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of the molecular transmission network of newly-diagnosed human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infected individuals in Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province, and to provide evidence for epidemic trend and prevention.Methods:The plasma samples from 423 antiretroviral-naive HIV-1/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome patients from August 2018 to December 2019 were collected, and the pol gene fragments of HIV-1 from 375 samples were amplified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and nested PCR. The phylogenetic tree was constructed to analyze the molecular transmission network for subtypes and different gene distances by MEGA 6.0 software, HyPhy software and Cytoscape 3.7.2. Mutations on drug resistance was analyzed by online software tool of the HIV drug resistance database of Stanford University. Results:Eight subtypes were found in the 375 samples. Circulating recombinant form (CRF)07_BC(215/375, 57.33%) and CRF01_AE(103/375, 27.47%) were the major subtypes, followed by CRF85_BC, CRF55_01B, B, C, and CRF01_AE/B subtypes. One hundred and ninety-four individuals (51.73%) were connected to the transmission network at 1.50% genetic distance with 24 clusters. One hundred and twenty-nine individuals (34.40%) were connected to the transmission network at 0.75% genetic distance with 30 clusters, and 35 elderly patients were clustered in CL1.Forty-two cases had surveillance drug resistance mutation (SDRM), the prevalence of transmitted drug resistance was 11.20%(42/375). Thirty-eight cases had the drug mutations to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, including K103 N(32/375, 8.53%), K103 S(4/375, 1.07%), Y188 L(1/375, 0.27%) and G190 A(1/375, 0.27%); four cases had the mutations to protease inhibitor, including M46 I(3/375, 0.80%) and V82 A(1/375, 0.27%). The cluster C2 sequences carried a high proportion of resistant mutations (94.29%, 33/35). Conclusions:HIV-1 subtypes in Shaoxing City are diverse and the CRF07_BC subtype spreads rapidly. The elderly patients with drug resistance genes in cluster CL1 at 0.75% gene distance need to be intervened immediately to prevent the drug resistance virus spread.

Objective: To explore the effect of miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) on mandible position in the treatment of adult skeletal Class Ⅰ malocclusion with maxillary transverse deficiency. Methods: In this retrospective study, 20 cases of adult skeletal Class Ⅰ malocclusion with maxillary transverse deficiency treated with MARPE in our hospital from July 2019 to March 2022 were selected as research objects. CBCT data of three time points before treatment (T0), immediately after expansion (T1) and six months after retention (T2) were collected. The head position was standardized and calibrated by Dolphin software, and then mandible landmarks (left and right Condylion, left and right Gonion, Menton) were positioned. The linear distance changes of each landmark relative to the reference plane of coronal plane, axial plane and sagittal plane were measured, which represented the sagittal, vertical and horizontal displacement of mandible respectively. Repeated measurement ANOVA and LSD multiple comparison were used to evaluate the position change of each landmark. Results : The Menton and right Gonion rotated clockwise at T1, and relapsed to the initial position at T2. No lateral displacement of Menton was found. Conclusion When MARPE is used to treat skeletal Class Ⅰ malocclusion with maxillary transverse deficiency, it causes a transient clockwise rotation of the mandiblar. The mandible does not show sagittal, vertical and horizontal position changes in long-term evaluation.

Objective To analyze the outcomes and the prognostic factors of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in combination with imatinib for Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). Methods All 32 patients with Ph+ ALL achieved hematologic complete remission (CR) at time of transplantation, including 27 cases in the first CR (CR1) and 5 in CR2. Nineteen patients achieved molecular remission (MR). Among 32 patients, 4 received autologous HSCT (AHSCT), and 28 allogeneic HSCT (allo-HSCT). The conditioning regimens comprised of total body irradiation (TBI), cyclophosphamide, fludarabine and cytarabine. The median number of transfused mononuclear cells was 5. 6 × 108/kg, and that of CD34+ cells was 2. 94 × 106 /kg. Thirty-one patients were administrated imatinib orally before transplantion, at a dose of 400～600 mg/day, and 16 patients after transplantation, including 7 for prevention at a dose of 300～400 mg/day and 9 for salvage treatment at a dose of 400 ～ 600 mg/day. Results Hematopoietic reconstitution was achieved in all 32 patients. Three-year estimate of overall survival (OS) was (62. 1±8. 6)%, leukemia-free survival (LFS) (59. 2 ± 8. 7)%, relapse rate (RR) (17. 7 ± 7. 2)% and transplant-related mortality (26. 2 ± 8. 0) %. All 4 undergoing AHSCT were alive, and 3 out of them were in continuous CR with durations of 14, 18 and 67 months respectively. The univariate analysis for prognosis in allo-HSCT showed that the OS of HLA-matched sibling donors group was 76. 5 %,higher than that of unrelated or haploidentical donors group (27. 3 %, P＜0. 05), and so was LFS (70. 6 % vs 27. 3 %, P＜0. 05). RR in patients achieving MR at time of transplantation was 5. 6 %,lower than that in those not achieving MR (40. 0 %, P＜0. 05). RR in patients in CR1 at time of transplantation was 12. 5 %, lower than that in those in CR2 (50 %, P ＜0. 05). Conclusion Imatinib improved the outcomes of HSCT for Ph+ ALL, especially to patients achieving MR at time of transplantation and transplantation in early stage (CR1).
