Objective To analyze the characteristics of pulmonary function and the clinical significance of non‐specific pattern (NSP) ,and provide basis for the clinical research .Methods A total of 120 pulmonary function tests of adult patients from January 2013 to June 2014 were selected and divided into NSP group(n=20) and normal lung function group(n=100) according to their lung function behavior .The pulmonary function test results ,clinical diagnosis and radiological manifestations were analyzed .The relevant factors affecting NSP occurred were selected and logistic regression analysis was used to analyze multiple factors .Results The FEVl ,VC ,TLC ,FVC ,MVV and FEVl/FVC in normal group were significantly higher than that of NSP group and the RV/TCL was lower than NSP group ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .Patients in NSP group were with obstructive and (or) restrictive clinical manifestations .There were 9 patients were without lung disease .Univariate analysis showed that age , BMI ,smoking history ,smoking ,obstructive diseases ,and restrictive disease in NSP group were significantly higher than that in nor‐mal group ,the difference were statistically significant (P<0 .05) .Multivariate analysis showed that age ,BMI ,history of smoking , obstructive diseases and restrictive disease were independent risk factors for NSP (P<0 .05) .Conclusion Old age ,smoking and o‐besity could increase the incidence rate of NSP .The clinical characteristics include obstructive and restrictive ventilation defects ,and need to be identified positively .

Objective To know the rural doctors' knowledge,belief and practice on iodine deficiency disorders(IDD),as well as their capability on health education communication in Ye County,Henan Province.Methods Semi-structured interviews were conducted among 50 rural doctors in Ye County,Henan Province.Topics covered include:sales of salt purchases,daily supervision and monitoring activities of salt,the health effects of salt,the situation of rural doctors trained,the situation of rural doctors participated in health education and related recommendations.Results ①Twenty-nine of the rural doctors knew exactly the advantage of salt iodization.②Thirty-nine of the rural doctors had taken part in the half quantitative detection of salt once or twice a year and 15 of them knew the supervision activities of salt industry department.③Forty-nine of the rural doctors believed salt iodization was beneficial to health and 48 of them were willing to participate in health education on IDD.④The major ways of their acquiring health knowledge were promotional materials [54.0％ (27/50)],TV [50.0％ (25/50)],and lecture/training [24.0％ (12/50)].⑤Thirty-seven of the rural doctors had taken part in health education on IDD.They were used to use booklets [68.0％ (34/50)],promotional slogan [36.0％ (18/50)],broadcast [24.0％ (12/50)],and doctor consultation [24.0％ (12/50)].⑥Twenty-eight of the rural doctors thought the current health education on IDD was better.They hoped to reduce the price of salt,strengthen supervision,receive more training and health education on IDD.Conclusions The rural doctors remain relatively lack of knowledge on IDD.Rural doctors have the initiative and responsibility to conduct health education on IDD,but their pattern is still a one-way propagation.

In recent years,stem cell transplantation for the treatment of ischemic stroke has become a hot topic.However,since embryonic stem cells (ESCs) transplantation is limited by the ethics and law,stem cell research was once in trouble.Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are a class of cells by introducing the specific transcription factors into somatic cells,which have the similar characteristics with ESCs,and also avoid the ethical issues and immunological rejection,making them become the most ideal replacer of ESCs.Although the current research on iPSCs has made some progress,their induction efficiency and safety issues remain to be resolved.This article reviews the status quo,mechanisms,and problems faced in clinical practice for iPSCs transplantation in the treatment of ischemic stroke.

Objective To observe the clinical effect and safety of umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cell(UCB-MSC) transplantation in the treatment of diabetic foot. Methods UCB-MSC suspension (cell concentration (3 -7) × 107/L,0.3 -0.5 ml per point) was injected into multiple spots on affected lower limb with a 3 cm × 3 cm istance among each point. Demixing injection could be performed in regions with multilayer muscles. Clinical symptoms and related index were routinely observed from the first day to three months after operation. Results After three months of UCB-MSC transplantation, pain of patients was relieved, skin temperature increased, intermittent claudication ameliorated, ulcer healed, ankle-brachial index and transcutaneous partial pressure of oxygen increased. The lower extremity lesions showed an abundant collateral vessel formation after the treatment in 2 patients by angiography. Both patients had no severe complications and adverse reactions, none underwent amputation. Conclusions Umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cell transplantation is a safe and effective treatment of diabetic lower limb ischemic disease, which can exempt the patient from amputation and improve their quality of life.

ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between Dicer expression and clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis by detecting the expression of Dicer in hilar cholangiocarcinoma tissues and cells.MethodsThe expression of Dicer in tissues was detected using immunohistochemistry.Western blotting and RT-PCR were used to investigate Dicer expression in QBC939 and HIBEpic cells.The relationship between Dicer expression and clinicopathological characteristics was analyzed.A Kaplan-Maier analysis was performed to analyze the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) after radical surgical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.ResultsWhen compared to control,Dicer was significantly down-regulated in hilar cholangiocarcinoma tissues (P＜0.05) and in QBC939 (P＜0.05).The expression of Dicer was higher in well differentiated adenocarcinoma than poorly and moderately differentiated tumours. Univariate analysis showed low expression of Dicer protein was significantly correlated with short disease-free survival and overall survival of patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma after radical surgical resection (P＜0.01). Multivariate analysis revealed that the expression of Dicer was the most important factor for predicting prognosis after radical surgical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma (P＜0.05).ConclusionsDicer could be used as a prognostic marker for hilar cholangiocarcinoma.

Objective To investigate perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis in thyroid operation at all levels of hospitals in a province.Methods From January 1 ,2011 to December 31 ,2013,all kinds of thyroid operation in a province were conducted targeted monitor,investigated results were analyzed.Results A total of 1 304 cases of thy-roid operation were investigated,1 294 (99.23%)were elective operation;duration of operation of 1 051 cases (80.60%)were ≤2 hours;antimicrobial use rate was 96.70%;196 patients (15.45%)were administered 30 mi-nutes before operation,887 patients (70.34%)used antimicrobial agents for >48 hours;19.53% of patients used the first generation cephalosporins and clindamycin.Conclusion There are some problems in antimicrobial use in thyroid operation in this province,such as inappropriate choice of antimicrobial agents,improper administration time,long time use of antimicrobial agents,and use antimicrobial agents without indications.Management of anti-microbial agents should be strengthened,so as to promote the rational use of antimicrobial agents.

The permeability coefficient of cinnamic acid rose as its concentration increased. Cinnamic acid consisted of 20% ethanol, 30% ethanol and 3% Azone had high penetrating power. Conclusion: The research will provide experimental data for skin administration of Chinese medicine holding cinnamic acid.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of a healthcare-associated infection(HAI) outbreak due to multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) in an intensive care unit(ICU), and provide basis for the prevention and control of HAI.Methods Epidemiological investigation and environmental hygiene monitoring methods were adopted to investigate patients who had pulmonary infection after they were admitted to the ICU of a hospital in April 1-26, 2015, risk factors were analyzed and corresponding preventive control measures were taken.Results A total of 15 cases of extensively drug-resistant AB(XDR-AB) healthcare-associated lower respiratory tract infection occurred.15 strains of AB were isolated from 15 patients.No.1, 3, 4, 5, No.6, 7, 8, 9, and No.10, 11 patients were detected AB with the same antimicrobial susceptibility testing results respectively;occurrence time of infection was relatively centralized.A total of 43 specimens from environmental surface and hands of health care workers(HCWs) were collected, detection rates of AB from bedside cabinet, monitor button, and hands of HCWs were 100.00%(1/1), 75.00%(6/8), and 66.67%(4/6)respectively.AB were not detected from specimens of treatment table, infusion pump button, and doctors' nasal swabs.By late May 2015, there were no new such cases in ICU.Conclusion This AB HAI may be spread through environmental surface and hands of HCWs in ICU, AB isolated from patients is extensively antimicrobial resistant, active treatment of patients and strict disinfection and isolation measures can effectively control further prevalence.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between orthostatic intolerance (OI) and body mass index (BMI), blood lipid and serum protein levels in children and adolescents.Methods:A total of 122 children and adolescents aged from 6 to 17 years old, who were diagnosed with OI at the Department of Pediatric Cardiology, the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University from April 2018 to April 2019, were selected as the subjects.While, 56 children and adolescents in the health management center were selected as the healthy control group during the same period.Subjects were divided into syncope group and non-syncope group according to whether there was syncope in clinical history.The height and body mass of all children were measured, and venous blood were taken to detect blood lipids and serum protein in the morning.Date analysis were conducted with SPSS 22.0 software.Results:(1) The level of triglyceride in the OI group was lower than that in the healthy control group[(0.98±0.45) mmol/L vs. (1.28±1.04) mmol/L], and there was statistically significant( t=2.025, P<0.05); the BMI were respectively (17.56±3.23) kg/m 2 and (16.46±2.58) kg/m 2 in syncope group and non-syncope group, whose result indicated that the BMI in syncope group was higher than that in non-syncope group( t=2.085, P<0.05). (2) The results of binary Logistic regression analysis showed that the triglyceride level was an independent risk factor for OI( OR=0.504, 95% CI: 0.272-0.931, P<0.05). (3) The receiver operating characteristic curve evaluated the predictive value of triacylgly-cerol to OI.Results showed the sensitivity and specificity of OI were respectively 72.1% and 48.2%when the triacylglycerol was 1.09 mmol/L. Conclusions:Low triglyceride level and high BMI may be susceptible factors to OI in children and adolescents.Therefore, the diet of children with OI should be highly valued by clinicians and parents.

Objective To investigate clinical features and risk factors for recurrent syncope in children with orthostatic intolerance.Methods Patients with orthostatic intolerance and syncope admitted in the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University from January 2014 to June 2015 were retrospectively analyzed by using t test,Chi -square test,and Fisher′s exact probability method.According to frequency of syncope,all cases were divided into 2 groups,the occasio-nal syncope group and the recurrent syncope group.All risk factors including age,gender,body mass index(BMI),in-ducement,the history of motion sickness,family history,syncope -related injuries,performance of head -up tilt table test,and outcomes of head -up tilt table test were studied statistically and compared within 2 different groups.Results A total of 83 cases were enrolled in this study.Among these children,33 cases(39.76%)were assigned as occasio-nal syncope group,in which 17 cases were male and 16 cases were female and the age ranged from 6 to 18 years with the average age of (9.70 ±2.87)years;50 cases(60.24%)were assigned as recurrent syncope group,in which 27 ca-ses were male and 23 cases were female and the age ranged from 6 to 18 years with the average age of (11.24 ±2.83) years.Of all the investigated risk factors,the BMI and the history of motion sickness were significantly different between 2 groups[(18.84 ±3.49)kg/m2 vs (18.16 ±3.68)kg/m2 ,t =4.82,P =0.001;39.39%(13 /33 cases)vs 70.00%(35 /50 cases),χ2 =7.64,P =0.006].No significant difference was found in age distribution(6 -9 years,10 -14 years,15 -18 years)between 2 groups(P =0.428).There were no significant differences in gender (male /female), family history,or syncope -related injuries between 2 groups[17 /16 cases vs 27 /23 cases;3.03%(1 /33 cases)vs 10.00%(5 /50 cases);15.15%(5 /33 cases)vs 20.00%(10 /50 cases),all P >0.05].And no significant difference was found in inducement (prolonged standing,body posture change,emotional stress/emotional stimuli,muggy environ-ment,movement)between 2 groups [78.79% (23 /33 cases)vs 72.00% (36 /50 cases);9.09% (3 /33 cases)vs 14.00%(7 /50 cases);3.03%(1 /33 cases)vs 6.00%(3 /50 cases);12.12% (4 /33 cases)vs 10.00% (5 /50 cases);3.03%(1 /33 cases)and 12.00%(6 /50 cases),all P >0.05].And performances of head -up tilt table test (blurred vision/blacked out,nausea/vomiting,sweating,dizzy/headache,palpation,anhelation /chest tightness,hot, weak)between 2 groups showed no significant differences[18.18%(6 /33 cases)vs 12.00%(6 /50 cases);36.36%(12 /33 cases)vs 50.00%(25 /50 cases);24.24%(8 /33 cases)vs 26.00%(13 /50 cases);51.52%(17 /33 cases) vs 58.00%(29 /50 cases);6.06%(2 /33 cases)vs 16.00%(8 /50 cases);27.27%(9 /33 cases)vs 22.00%(11 /33 cases);33.33%(11 /33 cases)vs 32.00%(16 /50 cases);12.12%(4 /33 cases)vs 16.00%(8 /50 cases),all P >0.05].Also there were no significant differences in outcomes of head -up tilt table test between 2 groups(P =0.589). Conclusions The risk factors for recurrent syncope in children with orthostatic intolerance were low BMI and the his-tory of motion sickness for such children,and more positive and effective clinical intervention can improve the living quality of children with orthostatic intolerance to some extent.
