Objective To explore the mechanism and therapeutic effects of wet dressing with 50％ magnesium sulfate ( MgSO4 ) as a part of comprehensive treatment for wound resulted from pit viper bites in children.Methods A total of 61 children with pit-viper-bitten wound enrolled from May 2009 through May 2011 were divided into two groups,namely the comprehensive treatment group (n =31 cases) and the conventional treatment group (n =30 eases). In the comprehensive treatment group,50％ magnesium sulfate wet dressing applied to the swelling parts of body in the early stage in addition to the conventional treatment and topically bandaged once a day keeping wet with spraying saline on the top of dressing.Before the treatment and on the 1st day,the 3rd day and the 5th day of treatment,the values of myocardial enzyme and the circumference of swelling parts were recorded,and the differences were analyzed by t- test.The differences in rate of wound healing in one week between two groups were analyzed by chi-square test.Results Before the treatment,there was no statistical difference in clinical features between the two groups with different modes of treatment for the viper-bitten children (P ＞ 0.05 ). During comprehensive treatment,the values of myocardial enzyme and the circumference of swelling parts decreased more markedly than those in conventional treatment group ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The rates of wound healing in one week of two groups were 80.5％ and 56.6％ respectively.Conclusions The comprehensive treatment with adjuvant of 50％ MgSO4 for the viper-bitten children can effectively reduce the tissue damage caused by venom,and the swelling as well,restoring function of body and shortening the time for wound healing and preventing complications.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for acute cholangitis after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and to construct its nomogram.Methods:Clinical data of patients who underwent ERCP for common bile duct stones in the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from January 2014 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 95 patients with acute cholangitis after the operation (the acute cholangitis group) were included and 285 patients without acute cholangitis after the operation (the non-acute cholangitis group) were selected by random sampling at 1∶3 via the software. Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the risk factors for acute cholangitis after ERCP. A nomogram model was established to predict the incidence of acute cholangitis after ERCP based on the results of multivariate analysis.Results:Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in age, combination with diabetes, levels of alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and glucose, roughness in gallbladder wall, bile duct diameter, stenosis in lower bile duct, proportion of patients who underwent endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage and endoscopic nasobiliary drainage between the two groups ( P<0.05). Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that advanced age ( OR=1.108, 95% CI:1.079-1.138, P<0.001), combination with diabetes ( OR=4.524, 95% CI:1.299-15.758, P=0.018), roughness in gallbladder wall ( OR=2.495, 95% CI:1.106-5.630, P=0.028), increased bile duct diameter ( OR=1.303, 95% CI:1.181-1.437, P<0.001), and stenosis in lower bile duct ( OR=4.192, 95% CI:2.508-7.005, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for acute cholangitis after ERCP. Based on the results of multivariate analysis, the nomogram of acute cholangitis after ERCP was established. The area under the receiver operator characteristic curve was 0.887. Conclusion:Advanced age, combination with diabetes, rough gallbladder wall, increased diameter of bile duct and stenosis in lower bile duct are independent risk factors for acute cholangitis after ERCP. Clinicians can make clinical intervention based on the nomogram of risk factors above to improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective:To explore the lung protective effect of nebulized inhalation of lidocaine (NL) on elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 80 elderly patients who underwent hip fracture surgery at the Huizhou Sixth People′s Hospital from September 2020 to December 2021. They were randomly divided into an NL group and a control group with 40 patients in each group. Within 30 minutes before the start of anesthesia, the NL group was given 2% lidocaine 10 ml oxygen driven nebulization inhalation, while the control group was given equal volume sterile injection water nebulization inhalation. All patients underwent general anesthesia with laryngeal mask intubation and iliac fascia space block. A randomized, double-blind, and controlled clinical study was conducted. The average values of intraoperative peak airway pressure (P peak), plateau airway pressure (P plat), and lung dynamic compliance (C dyn) were compared between two groups of patients; We compared the changes in arterial partial pressure of CO 2 (PaCO 2), alveolar arterial oxygen differential pressure (A-aDO 2), respiratory index (RI), and oxygen index (OI) between the two groups of patients and before and after surgery; The clinical pulmonary infection score (CPIS) and lung ultrasound score (LUS) were also compared between two groups of patients on the first day before surgery, the second day after surgery, and the seventh day after surgery. Resultsl:There was no statistically significant difference in the average values of P peak, P plat, and C dyn between the two groups during surgery (all P>0.05). After surgery, A-aDO 2 and RI in both groups increased compared to before surgery, while OI decreased compared to before surgery (all P<0.05); After surgery, A-aDO 2 and RI in the NL group decreased compared to the control group, while OI increased compared to the control group (all P<0.05); There was no statistically significant difference in PaCO 2 between the two groups before and after skin incision (all P>0.05). Compared with the 1st day before surgery, the CPIS and LUS in both groups were significantly increased on the 2nd and 7th day after surgery (all P<0.05); Compared with the second day after surgery, the CPIS and LUS of both groups of patients were significantly reduced on the seventh day after surgery (all P<0.05); On the second day after surgery, the CPIS and LUS in the NL group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05); On the 7th day after surgery, the LUS of the NL group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P<0.05); There was no statistically significant difference in CPIS scores between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Nebulized inhalation of lidocaine can reduce lung function damage in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery, and has a certain lung protective effect.

OBJECTIVETo provide theoretical basis for effect and mechanism of percutaneous lumbar discectomy in clinic.

METHODSA total of 180 patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation were evaluated by CT on the fifth day before and after operation. Meanwhile, CT value was measured in the determined level and region.

RESULTSAfter operation, CT value of the central and posterior determined point of herniated intervertebral disc was lower significantly than that before operation (P<0.01), but CT value of the anterior determined point was different insignificantly. The excellent and good results of the patients together were 83% postoperatively.

CONCLUSIONSThe curative effect of percutaneous lumbar discectomy is achieved through reduction of lumbar intradiscal pressure.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum secreted phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) and the severity of the disease in cobra bite patients. Methods Fifty-two cobra bite patients admitted to our hospital from January 2015 to December 2015 were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. According to the degree of disease, patients were divided into the light and heavy risk groups. According to the degree of swelling of the affected limbs, patients were divided into the mild swelling group and moderate-severe swelling group. According to the time difference between visits, patients were divided into: visit time <8 h group and visit time ≥ 8 h group. Twenty healthy adult volunteers served as the control group. The levels of serum sPLA2, C reactive protein (CRP), D-dimer (DD), lactic acid (LAC) and peripheral blood leukocyte count (WBC) were measured and compared in different groups. Quantitative data were analyzed using t test and rank sum test. Results The levels of serum sPLA2 in the light and heavy risk group were statistically different from those in the control group (P<0.05), and were statistically significant between the light and heavy risk groups (P<0.01) and between the mild swelling group and moderate-severe swelling group (P<0.05). The serum sPLA2 levels in group A and group B were also significantly different from those in the control group (P<0.05). The level of sPLA2 was positively correlated with the level of LAC, DD and WBC, and the correlation coefficients were 0.3142, 0.2752 and 0.6534, respectively. Conclusions The higher the level of serum sPLA2, the more serious the patient's poisoning symptoms. It is of certain clinical value to evaluate the condition of cobra.

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between the offset of a laser-assisted flap using the WaveLight FS200 femtosecond laser and the clinical results after femtosecond laser-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK). Methods: In this prospective cohort study, 125 patients who underwent FS-LASIK for myopia by WaveLight FS200 femtosecond laser from June 2017 to July 2018 at the Tungwah Ophthalmic Center were divided into two groups according to the offset of the corneal flap from the pupil center: the no-offset group (57 eyes) and the certain-offset group (68 eyes); the baseline data, including age, sex, uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), spherical degree, and central corneal thickness were matched in the two groups.UCVA, residual astigmatism, spherical degree, corneal curvature and aberration were observed 1 week and 1 month after surgery.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Tungwah Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University (No.2017DHLL004). Written informed consent was obtained from each subject prior to entering the study cohort. Results: UCVA, corneal curvature, spherical degree, spherical and corneal aberration between the two groups were not significantly different (all at P>0.05). One week after surgery, the residual astigmatism was ≤-0.50 D in 50 eyes (87.7%, 50/57)and >-0.50 D in 7 eyes (12.3%, 7/57) in the no-offset group; the residual astigmatism was ≤-0.50 D in 50 eyes (73.5%, 50/68) and >-0.50 D in 18 eyes (26.5%, 18/68) in the no-offset group.The residual astigmatism between the two groups 1 week after surgery was significantly different (χ²=3.902, P=0.048), and there was no significant difference in residual astigmatism 1 month after surgery (χ²=2.031, P=0.068). The trefoil of the no-offset group was statistically less than of the certain-offset group at 1 week and 1 month after surgery (0.05[0.04, 0.08]vs.0.06[0.04, 0.10]; 0.05[0.03, 0.07]vs.0.06[0.05, 0.09])(Z=-2.245, P=0.022; Z=-2.370, P=0.018). The spherical aberration and coma were not significantly different between the two groups at 1 week and 1 month after surgery (both at P>0.05). Conclusions The offset from femtosecond laser-assisted flap by WaveLight FS200 has no effect on long-term visual acuity or residual astigmatism.Some patients may have different visual experiences because of the residual astigmatism and higher order aberration during the early postoperative stage.

A 1 270 bp full-length cDNA fragment was obtained from the Schistosoma japonicum (Chinese strain) adult cDNA library after the 3′ and 5′ ends of the incomplete expression sequence tag (EST) of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase of Schistosoma japonicum (SjHGPRT) were amplified by the anchored PCR with 2 pairs of primer that were designed according to the published incomplete SjHGPRT EST and the sequence of multiclone sites of library ?gt11 vector. Sequence analysis indicated that this fragment, with an identity of 82% to hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase of Schistosoma mansoni (SmHGPRT), contained a complete open reading frame(ORF). The deduced amino acid sequence showed 83% identity to that of SmHGPRT. This fragment was cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pQE30, and subsequently sequenced and expressed in Escherichia coli. SDS-PAGE revealed that M of the recombinant protein was about 28 ku. Western-blot analysis showed that the recombinant protein was recognized by the polyclonal antisera from rabbits immunized with Schistosoma japonicum adult worm antigen. Mice vaccinated with recombinant protein revealed significant worm burden, liver eggs per gram (LEPG), fecal eggs per gram (FEPG) and intrauterine eggs of the female worms reduction percentage, compared with the controls. Taken together, the SjHGPRT full-length cDNA can be cloned and expressed in E.coli as a recombinant protein that elicited immunity against the challenge infection with Schistosoma japonicum, indicating its potential as a partial protection vaccine candidate.

Objective:To observe heart rate circadian rhythm in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 and to analyze the effects of parathyroidectomy (PTX) on heart rate circadian rhythm in severe secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) patients.Methods:A cross-sectional observation was performed in 213 patients with CKD stage 5 and 96 controls, and the patients were divided into those with severe SHPT (PTX group, n=70) and without severe SHPT (non-PTX group, n=143). Forty-six PTX patients were followed up prospectively. The baseline data were compared among these groups. Holter electrocardiogram was performed for each participant. Non-dipping heart rate was defined as night/day heart rate ratio greater than 0.9. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the related factors of heart rate circadian rhythm in patients with CKD stage 5. Results:The 24-hour, daytime and nighttime mean heart rate in patients with CKD stage 5 were all higher than those in controls, especially in PTX group (all P<0.05). The night/day heart rate ratios of controls and CKD stage 5 patients were (0.81±0.08) and (0.91±0.08) respectively ( P<0.01). Correlation analysis showed 24-hour and daytime or nighttime mean heart rate in patients with CKD stage 5 were positively correlated with serum levels of phosphorus and ln(alkaline phosphatase), while nighttime mean heart rate and night/day heart rate ratio were positively related with serum intact parathyroid hormone level. After adjusting with postoperative follow-up period (median time: 10.9 months), 24-hour and nighttime mean heart rate, and night/day heart rate ratio in PTX patients all decreased significantly (all P<0.01). Conclusions:Heart rate is increased and circadian rhythm is abnormal in patients with CKD stage 5, which are related with mineral and bone disorder. PTX significantly decreases 24-hour and nighttime mean heart rate in severe SHPT patients, and improves the heart rate circadian rhythm.
