Objective To evaluate effect of humanized nursing on psychological state of patients with chronic urticaria receiving autohemotherapy. Methods 58 cases with chronic urticaria in our hos-pital were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 29 cases in each group, the control group was treated with conventional care, the observation group received conventional care combined with humanized nursing. The anxiety, depression and satisfaction degree were compared for these two groups and the data went through χ2 test and t test. Results The score of self- rating anxiety scale (SAS) and serf-rating depression scale (SDS) of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group, the satisfaction rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the con-trol group. Conclusions Application of humanized nursing in patients with chronic urticaria receiving autohemotherapy can reduce their anxiety and depression and has pivotal significance on treatment of pa-tients with chronic urticaria.

Objective To determine the concentration of soluble PD-1 (sPD-1) in the sera of patients with recurrent genital herpes (RCH), and to explore the significance of abnormal expression of sPD-1 in RCH. Methods Serum samples were obtained from 88 healthy blood donors, 74 patients with RCH including 34 cases of outbreak-stage RCH and 40 cases of stable-stage RCH. The serum level of sPD-1 was measured by monoclonal antibody labeling and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results A significant difference was observed in the serum level of sPD-1 between the patients with RGH and the blood donors (33.06 ± 17.5 μg/L vs. 53.07 ± 26.3μg/L, P < 0.01) and between the patients with outbreak-stage RGH and those with stable-stage RGH (27.47 ± 12.9 μg/L vs. 37.71 ± 19.6 μg/L, P< 0.01). Conclusions There is a low expression of sPD-1 in patients with RGH, which may be one of the mechanisms underlying the escape of HSV- Ⅱ from immunologic surveillance and development of immunological tolerance.

Objective To determine the levels of plasma histamine and oxidative status in patients with dermatographism before and after the treatment with anti-histamine drugs. Methods Totally, 85 patients with dermatographism were randomly divided into two groups to receive oral desloratadine and cetirizine respectively for 4 weeks. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to detect the plasma level of histamine, superoxide dismutases (SOD), glutathion peroxidase (GSH-PX) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in all the patients before and after the treatment and in 15 normal human controls. The efficacy of desloratadine and cetirizine for dermatographism was estimated. Results The response rate was 83.72% and 78.57% in patients treated with desloratadine and those with cetirizine, respectively (x2 = 0.369, P> 0.05). The untreated patients with dermatographism showed an elevation in the plasma level of histamine (3.87 ± 1.21 ng/ml vs. 1.76 ± 0.56 ng/ml, P< 0.05) and MDA (3.86 ± 1.03 nmol/ml vs. 2.19 ± 0.82 nmol/ml, P< 0.05), but a decline in the activity of SOD (86.29 ± 19.9 U/ml vs. 112.12 ± 27.88 U/ml, P< 0.05) and GSH-PX (74.52 ± 47.67 vs.915.06 ± 115.96, P< 0.05) compared with the normal human controls. The treatment with antihistamine induced a reduction in the plasma level of histamine (1.61 ± 0.47 ng/ml vs. 3.87 ± 1.21 ng/ml, P< 0.05) and MDA (2.65 ± 0.77 nmol/ml vs. 3.86 ± 1.03 nmol/ml, P< 0.05), but an increment in the activity of GSH-PX (921.46 ± 157.37 vs.74.52 ± 47.67, P < 0.05) with no changes of SOD in patients with dermatographism. Conclusions In patients with dermatographism, plasma histamine is increased and there is an imbalance of oxidation-antioxidation.Desloratadine and cetirizine are effective for the treatment of dermatographism.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum resistin,leptin and adiponectin with microangiopathy in the patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods One hundred and twenty patients with T2DM in our hospital were selected and divided into the non-microangiopathy group (NON-MAP,60 cases) and microangiopathy group (MAP,60 cases) according to whether complicating microangiopathy.Other 60 individuals undergoing healthy physical examination were selected as the normal control group(NC).Fasting serum resistin,adiponectin and leptin levels were detected in each group.Fasting blood glucose,insulin and blood lipid levels were also detected.The insulin resistance was evaluated by using insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR).Results The levels of serum resistin,leptin,free fat acid(FFA) and hs-CRP in the NON-MVP group and MVP group were signifi cantly higher than those in the NC group,while the adiponectin level was sigrnificantly lower than that in the NC group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The correlation analysis showed that serum resistin and leptin levels had positive correlation with hs-CRP,FFA,HOMA-IR and TG(P＜0.05),and had negative correlation with HDL-C(P＜0.05);the adiponectin level was negatively correlated with hs-CRP,FFA,HOMA-IR and TG,while positively correlated with HDL-C(P＜0.05);serum resistin and leptin levels had positive correlation,both had significantly negative correlation with adiponectin;with serum resistin,leptin and adiponectin as the dependent variables,the multiple stepwise linear regression analysis showed that HOMA-IR and waist to hip ratio had maximal influence on them.Conclusion Serum resistin and leptin levels increase and adiponectin level decrease in T2DM patients suggests that serum resistin,leptin and adiponectin are correlated with T2DM occurrence as well as microangiopathy occurrence.

Objective Off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB),minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) and robotic-assisted coronary artery bypass (RA-CAB) are all used to treat isolated left anterior descending artery (LAD) disease.The aim of this study is to compare the early outcomes after these three procedures.Methods From February 2009 to May 2012,102 consecutive patients underwent revascularization of LAD.31 patients were treated by OPCAB,45 by MIDCAB and 26 by RA-CAB.Patients received sternotomy in the OPCAB procedures.The MIDCAB procedures were performed through a 10-cm anterolateral muscle-sparing minithoracotomy.In the RA-CAB procedures,left internal mammary arteries (LIMA) were harvested with the aid of da Vinci surgical system and sewing of the anastomoses was performed under direct vision by a 3-cm anterolateral minithoracotomy.Results No significant difference was observed in graft flow,pulse index,renal failure,reoperation for hleeding,new onset of arterial fibrillation and deep wound infection between these three groups.There was also no significant difference in peri-operative mortality,major adverse cerebro-cardiovascular events (MACCE) between these three groups.Compared with OPCAB,MIDCAB and RA-CAB significantly reduced the need of blood transfusion (4.4％ vs.32.3％,P＜ 0.05; 7.7％ vs.32.3％,P＜0.05).The patients receiving RA-CAB had shorter length of postoperative stay than whom receiving OPCAB[(8.8 ± 3.2) days vs.(12.4 ± 7.7) days,P ＜ 0.05)].There is no significant difference between the outcomes of MIDCAB and RA-CAB.Conclusion These findings indicated that MIDCAB and RA-CABwere feasible,effective and safe options for revascularization of isolated LAD disease.MIDCAB and RA-CAB showed the advantage of less invasive and faster recovery,compared with OPCAB.Therefore,MIDCAB and RA-CAB should be the routine treatment for patients with isolated LAD disease.In some advanced centers,RA-CAB will be the preferred method.The mid-and long-term outcomes of these three methods should be further investigated.

Objective:To investigate the effect of astragaloside IV (AS-IV) on the secretion of stromal cell-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α) and CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) by high glucose injured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), so as to lay a foundation for further study on AS-IV improving angiogenesis by regulating SDF-1 α/CXCR4 axis of endothelial cells.Methods:HUVECs were isolated and cultured from the umbilical vein of full-term healthy newborns and identified by von Willebrand factor (vWF) combined with 4-diamino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) nuclear staining. The obtained HUVECs was cultured in EGM-2 medium with 30 mmol/L glucose for 120 h to obtain high glucose damaged HUVECs. After intervention with different concentration gradients (25 mg/L, 50 mg/L, 100 mg/L, 200 mg/L, 400 mg/L) AS-IV for 72 hours, the contents of SDF-1α and CXCR4 were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method to determine the best concentration of AS-IV. The supernatant of damaged HUVECs were collected at 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after intervention with the best concentration of AS-IV, and the contents of SDF-1α and CXCR4 were detected by ELISA method to determine the best action time of AS-IV. The damaged HUVECs was randomly divided into experimental group and control group, and the blank group was set up at the same time. The experimental group was treated with the best concentration of AS-IV and the best time, the control group and the blank group were treated with the same volume of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution, and the contents of SDF-1α and CXCR4 in each group were detected by ELISA method.Results:The vWF factor on the cell membrane was green fluorescence, and the nucleus was blue after DAPI staining. When the fusion image showed green fluorescence, HUVECs were identified by blue fluorescence. The expression of SDF-1α in damaged HUVECs was the best when treated with AS-IV of 100 mg/L for 24 hours (1 642.87 pg/ml), and the expression of CXCR4 in damaged HUVECs was the best when treated with AS-IV of 50 mg/L for 48 hours (8.44 ng/ml). Compared with the control group, the contents of SDF-1α and CXCR4 in the experimental group were significantly increased, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). While the contents of SDF-1α and CXCR4 in the experiment group were slightly less than those in the blank group and there was no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05). Conclusions:AS-IV can promote the expression of SDF-1α and CXCR4 in HUVECs damaged by high glucose to return to normal physiological level, so as to play the role of vascular repair and neovascularization.

Objective:To develop a set of algorithms that could predict the precise size of acetabular cup preoperatively by the deep learning neural network technology.Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on 30 patients with femoral head necrosis from April 2019 to April 2020, including 15 males and 15 females. At the age of (54.8±10.5) years (range 33-72 years). Thirteen hips on the left and seventeen hips on the right, who underwent primary unilateral THA. Based on the manually segmented hip joint CT database, a deep learning convolutional neural network was trained to realize automatic segmentation. A customized algorithm was created to fit the surface of the acetabulum. By the application of another deep learning convolutional neural network, the identification of anatomical points of the pelvis and correction of the pelvic position were realized. So that the placement of the acetabulum cup could be done. DOC (dice overlap coefficients) as well as the average error parameter were adopted to evaluate the accuracy of the above steps. The novel algorithm and Orthoview software were retrospectively used to template the acetabular cup separately. The results of both groups were compared with the actual size and the coincidence rate was calculated to evaluate the accuracy of the novel algorithm. To verify this algorithm, the conformance rate was calculated respectively.Results:Compared with other classical segmentation networks, the G-NET network can segment the pelvic with femoral head necrosis more accurately (DOC 92.51%± 6.70%). It also has better robustness. The average error of the point recognition network is 0.87 pixels. Among the 30 patients, the AI-based algorithm group had a complete coincidence rate of 96.7% and the Orthoview group had a complete coincidence rate of 73.3%. The difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6.405, P=0.011). Conclusion:The artificial intelligence-based algorithm can segment the CT image series and identify the feature points of the patient's hip accurately. Compared with the conventional 2D preoperative planning method, the AI-based algorithm is relatively more accurate. This artificial intelligence-based 3D preoperative software has promising prospect to makeaccurate surgical plan efficiently.
