ObjectiveFew studies are reported on the sublingual immunotherapy with dermatophagoides farinae drops (DFD) for mite-allergic cough variant asthma (CVA) in children. This study aimed to investigate the clinical effects of DFD sublingual immunotherapy on mite-allergic CVA in children.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on 225 children with mite-allergic CVA treated in Wuhan Children′s Hospital from January 2016 to January 2017. The patients were divided into a control (n=123) and an experimental group (n=102) to receive symptomatic treatment and symptomatic treatment combined with DFD sublingual immunotherapy, respectively, both for 10 months. We recorded the relevant indicators, including the symptom scores, lung function parameters, levels of dust mite IgE and inflammatory factors (IL-4, TGF-β and INF-γ), and related risk factors, and compared the data obtained between the two groups of patients before and after treatment.ResultsThere were no statistically significant differences between the two groups of patients in the baseline daily and nocturnal cough symptom scores, lung function parameters, or levels of serum IgE, IL-4, TGF-β and INF-γ (P>0.05). After treatment, the children in the experimental group showed markedly lower daily and nocturnal cough symptom scores than the control (0.87±0.06 and 0.91±0.11 vs 2.54±0.32 and 2.38±0.42, P<0.05), better pulmonary function parameters (FEV1/FVC: \[1.98±0.56\]% / \[79.67±9.05\]% vs \[1.65±0.37\] / \[75.87±11.56\]%, P<0.05), and a higher effectiveness rate (73.53% vs 54.47%, P<0.05). The single- and multi-factor analyses showed that age, disease course and treatment methods were independent risk factors influencing the therapeutic effect on mite-allergic CVA in children (P<0.05).ConclusionSublingual immunotherapy with DFD can effectively improve the clinical symptoms and lung function in children with mite-allergic CVA, which may be associated with the decreased levels of serum IgE, IL-4, TGF-β and INF-γ. Age, disease course and treatment methods are independent risk factors influencing the therapeutic effect.

[Objective] To investigate professor SHAN Zhaowei's experience of diagnosing and treating bile reflux gastritis(BRG).

ObjectiveTo study the anatomical characteristics of the renal pedicle and its clinical application during retroperitoneoscopic nephrectomy.MethodsThe imaging, surgical video and clinical data of 278 cases undergoing retroperitoneoscopic nephrectomy between July 2007 and September 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. The renal pedicle was found located at the psoas and the medial arcuate ligament of the diaphragm for anatomic landmark before the gap of the psoas. A statistical analysis of the mean operative time, the mean time to look for the renal pedicle, the mean intraoperative estimated blood loss, the mean time to ambulation, the mean time to resuming oral intake, the mean postoperative hospital stay day and the rate of complications was performed.ResultsAll the operations were performed successfully, with no conversion to open and blood transfusion. The mean time to find the renal pedicle was (3.5 ± 1.3 ) min, the mean operative time was (95.6 ±23.8) min, the mean estimated blood loss was (72.4 ±27.5) ml, the mean time to resuming oral intake was (2.1 ±0.7) d, the mean time to ambulation was (1.8 ±0.9) d, the mean postoperative hospital stay was (8.5 ± 2.7 ) d.ConclusionsDuring retroperitoneoscopic nephrectomy, the best anatomical space to look for the renal pedicle is the space before the psoas muscle. The exact location of the renal pedicle is under the diaphragm medial arcuate ligament about 2 - 4 cm, in the gap of the psoas muscle and the vena cava (abdominal aorta). Following this procedure could reduce the time to look for the renal pedicle, thus reducing operative time.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the numbers of deep medullary veins (DMV) beside the ipsilateral lateral ventricle and the stenotic degree of large artery of ipsilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) system and cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) in patients with acute cerebral infarction showed on susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) in middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory.Methods The patients with acute cerebral infarction in MCA territory who underwent SWI,cerebral angiography and the transcranlal Doppler carbon dioxide challenge test during the hospital stay were enrolled retrospectively.According to the numbers of DMV beside the lateral ventricle on SWI,they were classified into 3 grades:Grade 1:DMV ＜5; Grade 2:DMV 5-10; Grade 3:DMV ＞ 10.The correlations of the DMV grades and the degree of ipsilateral ICA/MCA and CVR were analyzed.Results A total of 44 patients with acute cerebral infarction in MCA territory were enrolled.Twenty-four patients were DMV 1,15 were DMV2,and 5 were DMV 3.The mean stenosis degree of the main arteries of the ipsilateral ICA system was 40.52％ ±30.62％.The mean CVR of MCA was 0.41 ± 0.16.The stenosis degrees in the DMA grade 1,2,and 3groups were 31.31％ ± 26.02％,44.93％ ± 31.03％,and 71.76％ ± 26.68％,respectively.There were significant differences among the 3 groups (F=4.589,P =0.018),and the stenosis degree in the DMV grade 3 group was significantly higher than that in the DMV grade 1 group (P=0.014).The CVRs in the grade 1,2,and 3 groups were 0.45 ± 0.12,0.41 ± 0.18,and 0.22 ± 0.12,respectively.There were significant differences among the 3 groups (F=6.179,P=0.005),and the CVR in the DMV grade 3 group was significantly lower than that in the DMV grade 1 group (P =0.006) and in the DMV grade 2 group (P =0.038).Spearman correlation analysis showed that DMV grade was significantly positively correlated with the stenosis degree (rs =0.381,P =0.013),and was significantly negatively correlated with CVR (rs =-0.375,P=0.012).Conclusions The DMV grade in patients with cerebral infarction was positively correlated with the stenosis degree of responsible large artery and was negatively correlated with the MCA CVR in the responsible side.
