Objective To assess the effect of Chinese Rhubarb in assisting the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) by nasojejunal tube (NJ) and nasogastric tube (NG).Methods Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Science Citation Index Expanded-SCIE, EBSCO-CINAHL Complete, SinoMed, VIP network and Wan Fang net were retrieved systematically and randomized controlled trails (RCT) that involved in Chinese rhubarb assisting the treatment of SAP by NJ and NG were searched.According to eligibility and extraction standards, 2 researchers independently selected relevant literature and extracted the relevant data.The quality of literature was evaluated using criteria published by Australian Evidence-Based Health Care Center (2008).RevMan5.3 software was employed for Meta analysis.Results Eleven RCTs were enrolled and the quality of all the 11 papers was B grade.Compared with NG, NJ had lower score of APACHE-Ⅱ, shorter time of decreased CRP, amylase activity, IL-6 and IL-1, and shorter recovery time of bowel function and abdominal pain, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.01).However, there were no significant differences between two groups on complication rate, mortality, the rate of bowel function failure, the rate of surgical operation and recovery rate.Conclusions Chinese Rhubarb by NJ irrigation in assisting the treatment of SAP can rapidly alleviate abdominal pain, promote bowel function recovery and reduce inflammatory reaction, which had better efficacy than NG.

Objective To discuss the impact of a immunosuppressive protocol using tacrolimus combined with mycophenolate without steroid on glycometabolism after liver tansplantation (LT).Methods 295 adult liver transplant recipients were under investigation and divided into two groups,to receive immunosuppression therapy using tacrolimus and mycophenolate with (n =142) or without steroid (n =153).The fasting blood-glucose level,rate of hyperglycemia,infection and metabolic complications were followed up at 1st,2nd,4th,8th,12th,16th,20th and 24th week after LT.Results There were no significant differences between two groups in gender,age.body weight and FBG level before LT.In both groups,the FBG levels were significantly elevated immediately and reached the peak at 1st week after LT,then gradually decreased over time post-LT.The FBG level and rate of hypcrglycemia were significantly lower in steroid-free group than in steroid group in each observation time point with the differences being significant (P＜0.05) at 4th week post-LT.The overall rate of hyperglycemia was 52.9％ in steroid free group and 76.8％ in steroid group with the difference being significant between the two groups (P＜0.05) and a risk ratio of 2.94 (steroid-free group versus steroid group).The rate of acute rejection was slightly higher in steroid-free group (8.50 ％ ) than in steroid group (7.75％ ) (P ＞ 0.05 ).Also the incidence of intention badness,infection and hypercholesterinemia was significantly lower in steroid group than in steroid-free group.Conclusion The immunosuppressive protocol without steroids is safe and effective of reducing the risk of hyperglycemia and metabolic complications after LT.

Objective To investigate the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) post-orthotopic liver transplant (OLT) and its association with prognosis. Methods Data of 28 patients received single OLT in our hospital from 2004 to 2006 were retrospectively analyzed. The incidence of AKI was investigated by new acute kidney injury network (AKIN) criteria. The follow-up was over one year. The prognosis of AKI patients at day 28 and 1 year was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. The association between AKI and prognosis was examined. Results A total of 193 patients were enrolled. The average age was (48.07±10.02) years old. The ratio of male to female was 4:1. One hundred and sixteen (60.1%) patients of post-OLT AKI were found, whose AKI stage 1, 2 and 3 were 50.0%, 21.6% and 28.4% respectively. Ten (8.6%) patients required renal replacement therapy (RRT) after OLT. In AKI post-OLT patients, day 28 and 1 year mortality were significantly higher than those in non-AKI patients (15.5% vs 0, 25.9% vs 3.9%, respectively, both P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed the 1-year survival rates of AKI stage 1, 2, 3 post-OLT and non-AKl were 84.0%, 81.0%, 42.4% and 90.9%, respectively. The 1-year survival rate of non-AKI was significantly higher than that of AKI stage 1, 2, 3. The 1-year survival rate of AKI stage 3 was significantly lower than that of stage 1 and 2. There was no significant difference between AKI stage 1 and 2. Sct at 1 year post-OLT was significantly higher than that of baseline [(88.35±37.15) vs (73.70±33.88) μmol/L, P<0.05). The change of Scr value at 1 year compared to baseline in AKI patients was similar to non-AKI patients. However such change in AKI stage 2 and 3 was higher than that in stage 1. Conclusions The incidence of AKI post-OLT is quite high and associated to the poor prognosis in short and long periods. Renal function may decrease gradually which is associated to the AKI stage pest-OLTI.

Intestinal microbiota plays an important role in the development of immune system,es-pecially in the formation of immune response. Immune response to vaccination varies with region and popula-tion,which may be related to the differences in intestinal microbiota. This review focused on the correlation between intestinal microbiota and immune response to vaccination in order to find a new way to enhance vac-cine-induced immune response. It was revealed that intestinal microbiota might be involved in the immune responses to vaccines against rotavirus, typhoid and polio. Although probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics could not significantly enhance vaccine-induced immune response,they might have a beneficial effect on vac-cine by regulating intestinal microbiota.

Objective To investigate the value of urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and liver-type fatty acid-binding proteins (L-FABP) in early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) after liver transplantation. Methods During 2007-2008, 25 liver transplant recipients were recruited. Blood and urinary samples were collected before operation and at 2, 4, 6,12, 24, 48, 72, 120 h after portal vein opening, and used to determine serum creatinine (Scr), as well as urinary NGAL and L-FABP, which were normalized to urinary creatinine. According to the Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) criteria of AKI, all the patients were divided into AKI and non-AKI groups. Standard statistics were used along with ROC analysis to evaluate the diagnose value of selected markers. Results There were no significant differences in clinical parameters between non-AKI (n=14) and AKI (n=11) groups. Both groups had a transient rise in Scr 2-12 hours after surgery, but the rise lasted longer in AKI patients (2-24 hours). While urinary L-FABP rose transiently in both groups 2-120 hours following surgery, urinary NGAL was only slightly elevated at 2 h in the non-AKI group, but rose and stayed high from 2 to 6 h in the AKI group.ROC analysis revealed that NGAL (cut-off 43.02, 26.97 and 17.19 ng/mgCr, AUC 0.766, 0.773 and 0.773 at 2, 4 and 6 h, respectively) was better than L-FABP (cut-off 3451.75 ng/mgCr, AUC 0.760 at 4 h). Conclusion Urinary NGAL appears to be a sensitive and specific marker of AKI in liver transplant recipients, but these data need to be validated in larger prospective studies.

Breast cancer-related lymphedema(BCRL)is one of the most common complications after multidiscipline treatment of breast cancer,which manifests as upper limb swelling and skin changes and significantly affects limb function and quality of life.The occurrence and development of BCRL are affected by many factors including surgery,radiotherapy,drugs,infection,trauma,and so on.Therefore,it is important to identify the potential risk factors to establish individualized prevention strategies.Evidence-based risk assessment models for BCRL could help clinicians to identify high-risk patients and apply prospective surveillance to treat BCRL at early stage.For patients with advanced lymphedema,conservative treatment and surgical treatment could be delivered to relieve symptoms and improve their conditions.This article comprehensively reviewed the risk factors,prospective surveillance,intervention,and research progress of BCRL,to provide reference for multidisciplinary collaboration as well as clinical diagnosis and treatment in this field.

Objective:To evaluate and share the novel method for recruiting participants in clinical trials of vaccines in emergency situations.Methods:To publish recruitment notice in local areas of Wuhan through websites and medium, and guide interested persons to log in to the“Clinical Trials of SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine Reservation and Health Declaration System”to appoint and register their health information. The "Health Declaration System" provides each volunteer evaluation and risk levels to preliminarily exclude those who do not meet the inclusion criteria. Researchers review the qualified volunteers by telephone, organize them to go to the vaccination site, and finally conduct a strict medical screening to determine the final subjects.Results:A total of 4 819 people and 5 132 people registered in the Phase Ⅰ and Phase Ⅱ recruitment system respectively, with men 2 912 (60.43%) and 2 887 (56.25%) more than women 1 907 (39.57%) and 2 245 (43.75%), mostly in the 20-39 age group, with 3 211 (66.63%) and 3 966 (77.28%). All 13 districts in Wuhan have interested residents to participate clinical research.The initial qualified rate of the Phase Ⅱ recruitment system was higher than that of Phase Ⅰ, with men 2 047 (70.28%) and 2 135(73.95%), higher than women 1 083 (56.80%) and 1 472 (65.57%); 440 and 689 people were reviewed by telephone in Phase Ⅰ and Phase Ⅱ respectively, and the number of verified volunteers was about 440 (35.00%) and 689 (67.20%); Of the 201 603 people who arrived at the vaccination site, 12 and 26 of them were positive for the SARS-CoV-2 antibody with an antibody positive rate of 6.00% and 4.31% respectively.Conclusion:The novel method for recruiting subjects in this clinical study is efficient and reliable, and the recruitment situation of Phase Ⅰ had set a good example for Phase Ⅱ but the medium-and long-term compliance of subjects and the separation of willingness and behaviors still need to be further studied.
