Objective To observe the effect of Chaihushugansan combined with fluoxetine on interleukin -6 ( IL-6 ) , interleukin -1β( IL-1β) , tumor necrosis factor ( TNF-α) in the treatment of patients with postpartum depression.Methods 83 patients from November 2013 to July 2015 in Jiaxing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital were randomly divided into 41 patients of observation group and 42 patients of control group.The control group were treated with fluoxetine treatment, the obsercation group received Chaihushugansan on the basis of control group.The Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) and Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA),IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and adverse reactions were followed up and recorded.Results The HAMD and HAMA score in observation group post-treatment were (8.31 ±2.05,9.03 ±2.08)points, which were lower than (13.96 ±2.16, 13.61 ±2.14) points in control group (P<0.05).The serum IL-6 and IL-1βlevels in observation group post-treatment were (6.59 ±3.20,5.01 ±2.83)pg/mL, which were lower than (10.64 ±3.86,9.31 ±3.42)pg/mL in control group (P<0.05).The serum TNF-αand hs-CRP levels in observation group post-treatment were ( 9.16 ±2.01 ) pg/mL, ( 3.62 ±1.06 ) mg/L, which were lower than ( 12.30 ±2.37 ) pg/mL, (5.29 ±1.14)mg/L in control group (P<0.05).The total adverse reaction rate in observation group was 7.32%, significantly lower than 23.81% in control group ( P <0.05 ) .Conclusion Chaihushugansan combined with fluoxetine has a good therapeutic effect in the treatment of postpartum depression, could significantly reduce the IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α levels, with fewer side effects, it is better than fluoxetine alone.

Objective:This study aimed to analyze and compare the prognosis and the prognostic factors of combined small cell lung cancer (CSCLC) and pure small cell lung cancer (PSCLC) retrospectively. Methods:The clinicopathological characteristics of the 343 small cell lung cancer patients who were diagnosed in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital between January 2006 and December 2012 were collected and reviewed. Survival analysis was performed and prognostic factors were assessed. Results:The median OS (overall survival) and PFS (progression free survival) of CSCLC were 31 and 21 months, respectively, and the median OS and PFS of PSCLC were 15 and 9 months, respectively. The Kaplan-Meier survival curves revealed that the prognosis of CSCLC was significantly better compared with that of PSCLC. COX analysis showed that disease stage, pathology, and therapy were indepen-dent prognostic factors of small cell lung cancer. Univariate analysis indicated that the small cell lung cancer group benefited from the surgery, particularly the CSCLC. NLR , therapy, and disease stage influenced the prognosis of PSCLC, and disease stage and therapy in-fluenced the prognosis of CSCLC. Multivariate analysis revealed that disease stage and therapy were independent risk factors of CSCLC in regard to OS. Conclusion:The prognosis of CSCLC was better compared with that of PSCLC. Limited-stage small cell lung cancer should undergo surgery, particularly the CSCLC.

Objective:To explore the key factors affecting the formulation of treatment and prognosis of medullary thyroid carcinoma.Methods:Patient data, clinical characteristics and the results of follow-up of typical cases of 23 patients with medullary thyroid carcinoma admitted to Hunan Provincial People’s Hospital Breast and Thyroid Surgery from Apr. 2007 to Mar. 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The therapeutic schedule and prognosis of medullary thyroid carcinoma were discussed in combination with ATA guidelines and others.Results:Of the 23 patients with MTC, 22 (95.65%) had elevated serum calcitonin, 15 (65.22%) had elevated carcinoembryonic antigen, 3 (13.04%) had suspected abnormal lymph nodes, and 2 (8.70%) had capsule invasion. Thyroid lobectomy, thyroid lobectomy with lateral lymph node dissection in level VI, total thyroidectomy, total thyroidectomy with lateral lymph node dissection in level VI, total thyroidectomy with bilateral lymph node dissection in level VI, total thyroidectomy with bilateral lymph node dissection in level VI with lymph node dissection in level I, II, III, IV, V or VII were performed in 1, 2, 3, 1, 13, 3 cases respectively. 8 cases had postoperative recurrence (34.78%) , of which 7 cases were caused by the first operation. The level of Ctn increased significantly in 2 cases before operation, who underwent total thyroidectomy with bilateral lymph node dissection in level VI, and no recurrence was found after operation.Conclusions:The key to the biological cure of medullary thyroid carcinoma is standardized surgical treatment. The surgery method cannot be determined simply by calcitonin. The modern treatment of medullary thyroid carcinoma needs to follow the principle of standardization and individualization at the same time.

Objective To investigate the curative effect of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) and the method of the pretreatment choice on myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).Methods 13 cases who were undergoing allo-HSCT including 10 HLA-matched, 2 HLA partially matched,and one umbilical cord blood transplanted patients were enrolled in this study. The infusion number of MNC and CD+34 cells is 6.92 (2.65-21.33)×108/kg and 4.47 (1.49-10.22) ×106/kg, respectively. Of the 13 cases,5 adopted TBI, fludarabine(Flud), and cyclophosphamide(Cy) pretreatment, 3 chose BU/Cy pretreatment, and 3 chose TBI and Cy pretreatment, 2 chose Ara-C+BU+Cy+VM26 pretreatment. In order to prevent GVHD, 2cases of HLA partially matched were treated with ATG, cyclosporin A (CsA), MTX and MMF aftertransplantation, while the others were treated with CsA and MTX only. Results 9 out of 13 cases achieved hematopoietic reconstruction completely. 4 died of complications. Conclusion The allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an efficient regimen to cure MDS. The pretreatment should adopt the individuation.

Objective To investigate the nutritional status of vitamin D in preterm infants after birth and further explore its possible influencing factors, so as to guide clinical vitamin D therapy and to screen the preterm infants who are at high risk of vitamin D deficiency.Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted in the neonatal department of our hospital from April 21st, 2014 to February 5th, 2016.The serum 25(OH)D level in preterm infants were measured 2 weeks after birth.Data including gender, season of birth, time to initiation of breastfeeding were collected.According to the 25(OH)D levels[25(OH)D≤37.5 nmol/L, 37.5 nmol/L≤50.0 nmol/L, and 25(OH)D>50.0 nmol/L], all the preterm infants were divided into three groups: vitamin D deficiency, insufficiency, and sufficiency groups.The influencing factors of vitamin D in preterm infants were screened by using statistical method.Results The mean 25(OH)D level of 172 preterm infants was (43.1±16.7)nmol/L.In vitamin D deficient, insufficient, and sufficient groups, there were 68 (40％), 50 (29％) and 54(31％) cases of preterm babies, respectively.The mean values of 25(OH)D in these three groups were (27.8±16.7)nmol/L, (42.4±3.4)nmol/L, and (63.0±11.7)nmol/L, respectively.Only the season of birth had significant difference among three groups (P=0.013): 44.2％ of the preterm infants born in winter had vitamin D deficiency, which was higher than those in spring (41.7％), summer(33.3％), and autumn (38.1％);44.2％ of the preterm infants born in winter had vitamin D insufficiency, which was much higher than those in spring (30.6％), summer (25.1％), and autumn (19.0％);furthermore, only 11.6％ of the preterm infants born in the winter had vitamin D sufficiency, which was much lower than those in spring (27.8％), summer (41.2％), and autumn (42.9％) (OR=4.655, 95％ CI=1.716-12.627, P=0.003).Conclusion Vitamin D deficiency in preterm infants 2 weeks after birth is prevalent, and winter birth is a risk factor of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency in preterm infants.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Methods The clinical data of one child with TSC were collected. The clinical features and gene mutation were analyzed. Results A 36-day-old girl had abnormal nodules found by echocardiography, which was considered multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas. There were multiple hypomelanotic macules distributed over the skin surface of the trunk and legs. Cranial MRI showed cortical nodules, subependymal nodules and cerebral white matter radial migration line. A mutation in the TSC2 gene (c.4541-4544delCAAA) was found by second generation high-throughput sequencing technology and tuberous sclerosis complex was confirmed. Conclusion Gene detection is helpful in the early diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis complex.

Objective To sum up the clinical information and outcomes of one-stage surgical repairs for interrupted aortic arch (IAA) associated with cardiac defects through median stemotomy in infant.Methods From August 2005 to January 2012,23 IAA patients,aged 18 days to 3 years [mean age (8.61 ± 11.81) months],body weight 3.3-13.0 kg [mean (6.61 ± 3.26) kg] were reviewed underwent one-stage repair.There were 12 male and 11 female.The anatomic subtype ineluded type A 20 (87.0％),type B 3 (13.0％),and no type C in the records.All cases included ventricular septal defect and patent ductus artefious,some also with artirical-pulmonary window,aterical septal defect,bicuspid or unicuspid aortic valve,and subvalvular aortic stenosis.Diagnosis was determined in of the patients and suspected in by echocardiography.Also,64 layers helico-CT was employed to make a definite diagnosis for 18 patients and cardiac catheterization was used for 4 patients.All patients with cardiac anomalies underwent one-stage repair through median sternotomy.The aortic continuity was reestablished by anastomosis between the descending aortic segment and aortic arch.Results In all 23 cases,21 were successful.There was 2 (8.69％) postoperative death:one was due to surgical hemorrhage and severe low cardiac output during perioperative stage and the other was 2-month old due to crisis of pulmonary hypertension.CPB time was ranged from 53-215 min [(129.76 ± 38.98) min],and aortic crossclamp time was 34-125 min[(74.47 ± 24.30) min].The length of stay in ICU postoperatively was 96h averagely.The postoperative complications included severe low cardiac output syndrome in 3 patients,hypoxemia in 13,pneumonia in 7,and supraventricular tachycardia in 12.21 patients were followed up from 2 months to 6 years and were in good condition without recoactation.Conclusion The outcomes of early and medium term for one-stage repair of IAA and associated cardiac anomalies through median stemotomy is excellent.Technique of extended anastomosis between the descending aortic segment and aortic arch may reduce the incidence of recoarctation.It is simplified the procedure and improved life quality of patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features, treatment strategies, and relative prognostic factors in 66 patients with solitary plasmacytoma (SP). Methods:The data of 644 patients, who were diagnosed with pathologically proven plasmacytoma in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital between June 2000 and October 2012, were collected. Sixty-six of these patients (10.25%) were evaluated as SP, including 45 solitary bone plasmacytoma (SBP) and 21 extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP). Results:SBP and EMP were the two clinical subsets of SP revealing the location of the lesion. SBP mostly occurred in the axial skeleton, whereas EMP was most frequently observed in the upper respiratory tract. The differences among tumor size, serum M-protein, and serumβ2-microglobulin exhibited statistical significance. Conclusion:Large tumor size (≥5 cm), positive serum M-protein, and serumβ2-microglobulin were the factors that affected the prognosis of SBP patients. Radiotherapy and serumβ2-microglobulin>3.5 mg/L were the favorable prognostic factors for EMP patients.

Objective:To explore the application effect of traditional Chinese medicine comprehensive nursing on elderly patients with coronary heart disease(qi stagnation and blood stasis type) constipation.Methods:A total of 126 elderly patients with coronary heart disease (qi stagnation and blood stasis type) constipation were divided into the control group and the experimental group by random digits table method, 63 cases each; the control group received routine nursing, and the experimental group was given traditional Chinese medicine comprehensive nursing; comparing the two groups of patients defecation, mental state, recurrence rate, and nursing satisfaction.Results:There was no significant difference in defecation frequency, each defecation time, defecation smoothness score, fecal trait score, fall inflated score, and self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) score( P >0.05). After one month of nursing, defecation frequency, each defecation time, defecation smoothness score, fecal trait score, fall inflated score, and SAS score were (4.09±0.86) times/week, (5.12±1.24) min/time, (2.57±0.39) points, (1.53±0.31) points, (0.97±0.21) points, (49.27±4.15)points in the experimental group, (3.12±0.61) times/week, (6.87±1.52) min/time, (2.59±0.36) points, (2.02±0.44) points, (1.29±0.27) points, (54.42±6.01) points in the control group, the differences were significant ( t values were -6.638-7.081, all P<0.05). Within 1 month after nursing, the recurrence rate of constipation in the experimental group (14.3%, 9/63) was lower than that in the control group (74.6%, 47/63) , and the satisfaction rate of the experimental group (98.4%, 62/63) was higher than that in the control group (69.8%, 44/63) , the differences were significant(× 2 values were 46.414, 19.257, P<0.05).
