1.Influence of psychological intervention on the mental state of patients before Mammotome minimal-ly invasive biopsy system for excision of benign breast lump
Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2009;25(21):72-73
ObjectiveTo study the influence of psychological intervention on anxiety and de-pression of patients before Mammotome minimally invasive biopsy system in resection of benign breast lump. Methods120 patients with breast lumps were divided into the experimental group and the control group with 60 cases in each group. The psychological intervention was used in the experimental group be-fore the surgery, including psychological cognition, psychological guidance and support, family support, etc,and the routine nursing care was given to the control group. SDS and SAS were used to evaluate the psy-chological state of the two groups before surgery using χ2 test. ResultsThe anxiety and depression score in the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group. ConclusionsThe psy-chological intervention before Mammotome minimally invasive biopsy system in resection of benign breast lump can effectively ameliorate the anxiety and depression of patients.

3.Clinical characteristics of anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor encephalitis in children and adults
Chinese Journal of Nervous and Mental Diseases 2016;42(11):658-663
Objective To compare and analyze differences in clinical characteristics, auxiliary examination and im?munotherapy between children with anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate(NMDA) receptor encephalitis and adults. Methods Clinical data was retrospectively collected from 34 cases anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. All people were divided into the child group and the adult according to the age of onset and the inpatient department. Score of Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) before and after treatment and follow-up period (6 months~24 months) were compared to estimate the neurologi?cal outcomes. Results Data from 34 patients including 19 children and 15 adults was analyzed. Hypoventilation, epilep?sy and status epilepticus were more common in the adult group than in the child. The positive rate of EEG delta brush was higher in child group than in adult group. Two women were complicated by suspicious ovarian teratoma. Intravenous immune globulin was used commonly in the child group, while the plasma exchange or immunosuppressant used common?ly in the adult group. Time of onset to hospital admission and final diagnosis were shorter in the child group than in the adult. Patients requiring ICU were fewer in the child group than in the adult. The scores of mRS were significantly lower in the child group than in the adult at hospital discharge (P<0.05). Conclusion Clinical characteristics is more compli?cated in adults with anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis compared with children including a worse disease severity and a poorer short-term outcome.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal injections of conbercept in choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to pathologic myopia (PM).Methods A retrospective case series of 37 eyes of 37 patients affected with CNV secondary to PM treated by intravitreal injections of Conbercept.All the patients were examined with best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart,central macular thickness (CMT) of optical coherence tomography (OCT) at baseline.The initial average letters of ETDRS BCVA was 49.86±8.87,CMT was (306.38±31.01) μm.All eyes were treated with intravitreal Conbercept 0.05 ml (10 mg/ml).Follow up visits were performed monthly after injection.The mean follow-up time was 16.8 months.Injections were repeated according to the situation of BCVA,CMT,subretinal fluid and CNV leakage in follow-up.All eyes received an average of 4.8 injections.BCVA,CMT and ophthalmoscope examination were assessed monthly.The relationship of BCVA improvement and CMT reduction with the data at baseline and number of treatments were analyzed by Spearman Rho correlation respectively.Results During the 1,3,6 and 12 months after treatment,the mean BCVA were all improved with statistically significant difference (t=17.629,P<0.01).At 12 months,15 eyes (45.9%) had improvement of 15 letters or more,32 eyes (86.5%) had improvement of 5 letters or more,and 1 eye (2.7%) had decreased more than 5 letters.During the 1,3,6 and 12 months after treatment,the mean CMT were all decreased with statistically significant difference (F=43.726,P<0.01).At 12 months,the retinal fluid of 34 eyes (91.9%) were absorbed completely;33 eyes (89.2%) had angiographic closure at that time.There was no significant relevance between BCVA improvement and sex,age and course of the disease (P>0.05),but a significant negative correlation was found between the BCVA improvement and BCVA at baseline,injection times (P<0.05).There was no significant relevance between CMT reduction and sex,age,course of the disease and injection times (P>0.05),but a significant positive correlation was found between CMT reduction and CMT at baseline (P<0.05).There were no systemic or ocular serious side effects during the follow up.Conclusions Intravitreal injections of Conbercept showed BCVA improvement and CMT reduction.It appeared to be effective and safe for choroidal neovascularization secondary to pathologic myopia.Intravitreal Conbercept for CNV secondary to PM showed BCVA improvement,CMT reduction and safety.

The incidence of liver cancer has been increasing year by year.In China,the incidence of liver cancer is 25.7/10 million.However,when the important organs have been involved or when the malignant liver tumors are located adjacent to the hepatic portal vital organs,the lesions are usually difficult to be surgically removed,and the curative results of chemotherapy and radiotherapy for such lesions are often poor.In recent years,along with the gradual rise of ablation techniques,the irreversible electroporation (IRE),regarded as a new ablation method that uses non-thermal energy,has been widely employed in clinical practice.Through generating instantaneous high voltage electrical pulses,IRE produces irreversible nanoscale damage to the cell membrane.Both domestic and foreign researches have indicated that for the treatment of inoperable primary or metastatic liver tumors IRE can effectively inactivate the tumor tissue while the lumen architecture of the vessels can be preserved and large vessel or bile duct will not be damaged.This paper aims to make a comprehensive review about IRE device structure,mechanism of therapeutic action,preclinical studies,clinical application methods and clinical efficacy in order to provide reference for the application of this technology in clinical practice.(J Intervent Radiol,2017,26:285-289)

Vitamin D participates in a variety of biological processes. 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25-(OH)2D]is the active form of vitamin D. Besides its classical role in bone and calcium homeostasis, 1,25-(OH)2D has many non-classical functions such as regulating proliferation and differentiation of cells in various tissues, including tumor cells as well. However, the role of 1,25-(OH)2D in thyroid cancer is not clear yet. There are three integral components of the vitamin D pathway in thyroid cells. These components are the vitamin D receptor, 1α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1), and 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1). Differences in the expression levels of these components in normal thyroid tissue and thyroid cancer tissue may offer clues and lay the foundation for study of the inhibitory function in the pathogenesis of thyroid cancer.This review focuses on the insights gained in the elucidation of the role of 1,25-(OH)2D pathway in thyroid cancer, one of the most common endocrine malignancies.
