Objective To evaluate the preoperative sleep quality of inpatients and analyze its influencing factors.Methods A self-designed questionnaire,Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI)and self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)were used to investigate the sleep quality and anxiety of 114 inpatients before operation.The two groups were compared in terms of sleep quality and anxiety.The factors influencing the sleep quality were analyzed.Results Of the 114 preoperative inpatients,72.81%(83 cases)had poor sleep quality.The PSQI scores of preoperative inpatients were significantly higher than that in the healthy individuals,but significantly lower than that in the patients with insomnia(P<0.01).The main factors affecting the quality of sleep were fear of surgery,pain and discomfort,feeling strange with the ward settings,and worry about prognosis,totally causing 89.47%of the sleep disorders. Inpatients with poor sleep quality,37.3%was found suffering from anxiety.The rate was significantly higher than that of patients with good sleep quality(P<0.01).Conclusions The incidence of poor sleep quality is relatively high among the preoperative inpatients, mainly caused by fear of surgery,pain and discomfort.In order to improve the sleep quality,it is necessary to perform psychological and comfort intervention according to the sleep status of the patients.

Objective To investigate the relevance between the times of cytokine-induced killer cell (CIK cell) adoptive immunotherapy and the survival of the elderly patients with gastric cancer.Methods Lymphocyte separation medium was used to isolate mononuclear cells, and then the cultured CIK cells were infused back into the patients with gastric cancer. A retrospective cohort study was adopted by using Kaplan-Meier to estimate median survival time and survival rate, using Log-rank test to analyze the impact of clinical factors on survival rate, and using RR and 95% CI to estimate the contact intensity of death outcome, survival time and CIK cell treatment. Results There were nostatistically significant differences in gender,age, tumor site, histological type, invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, pathological grade, tumor size or tumor distribution between chemotherapy group and CIK treatment group (all P＞0.05). The median survival time of patients with gastric cancer was significantly longer in CIK treatment group than in chemotherapy group (61 vs. 21, χ2=10.215, P=0.001). Compared with the patients treated by chemotherapy alone, the increased times of CIK treatment induced more survival rate and 2-5 years life spans (χ2=12. 461, P=0.006). Conclusions With the treatment that CIK cells are infused back into the elderly patients with gastric cancer, the risk of death is reduced, and the lifespan is prolonged, which is associated with the CIK cell treatment times.

Objective To construct 1.3-fold-overlength infectious clone of hepatitis B virus isolated from Chinese patients , observe the expression of plasmid in Huh7 of liver cancer cells and establish genome of HBV in vitro. Methods HBV DNA in serum was extracted from HBV patient. SOE-PCR was performed to produce a 1.3-fold-overlength genome of HBV. The plasmid was named pHBV1.3 (C). After that,pHBV1.3 (C) was transfected into Huh7 cells, HBV related viral antigens and DNA were detected by ELISA,Western Blot and Fluorescence quantitative PCR. Furthermore, adefovir dipivoxil, a clinic anti-viral drug, was utilized to test the sensitivity of the new infectious clone. Results An infectious clone of pHBV1.3 (C) was successfully constructed. HBV gene carried in pHBV1.3 (C) could be efficiently replicated and expressed in Huh7 cells. Adefovir could inhibit HBV replication in this HBV cell model. Conclusions A recombinant plasmid containing 1.3-fold-overlength of HBV genotype C was successfully constructed. This construct is competent to support viral transcription and replication in vitro , suggesting that infectious cells are expected to be a new model of HBV infection in vitro.

Objective To investigate the efficiency and safety as well as the effect of chronic intravenous iron supplementation on the improvement of anemia in the patients with maintain hemodialysis (MHD). Methods Fifty-six patients with MHD were involved in the six-month, controlled trail and randomly divided into two groups: intravenous iron group (IV group) and oral iron group (oral group). The patients of IV group (n=28) were intravenously pumped 100 mg iron dextran during each hemodialysis session for the total amount of 1000 mg,after that,100 mg iron dextrin each two weeks. Patients in the oral group took 525 mg ferrous sulfate a day during the first three months and received iron dextran on the above methods under stopping oral iron supplement during the second three months. The efficacy was assessed by determining the change of hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (Hct), serum ferritin (SF) and transferring saturation (TSAT). Results The levels of Hb, Hct, SF, TSAT were increasing in the IV group after trail and there were evidently difference in those markers in the first three months, compared to the oral group, P

Objective To investigate the antibiotic resistance of extended-spectrum-β-1actamases (ESBLs)-producing Escherichia coli (E.coli) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K.pneumoniae) isolates and the risk factors of bloodstream infections caused by these strains.Methods Clinical data of 131 patients with E.coli or K.pneumoniae-induced bloodstream infections admitted in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University during September 2009 and June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Species identification and antimicrobial susceptibility test were performed by Vitek 2 system,and ESBLs production was tested by standard disk diffusion method.Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the risk factors of bloodstream infections induced by ESBLs-producing strains.Results Among 131 patients,65 were infected with ESBLs-producing strains,and 66 were infected with non-ESBLs-producing strains.The resistance rates of ESBLs-producing strains were above 50％ for penicillin,aztreonam and third/fourth generation cephalosporins,which were significantly higher than those of non-ESBLs producing strains.The resistance rates of ESBLs-producing E.coli and K.pneumoniae to carbapenems and piperacillin/tazobactam were 0-2.0％,2.3％ and 0-14.3％,26.7％,respectively.The univariate analysis revealed that patients with exposure to cephalosporins in recent 3 months (x2 =18.322,P ＜ 0.01),prior infection with ESBLs-producing strains (x2=14.610,P＜0.01),indwelling catheter in recent 3 months (x2 =13.016,P ＜ 0.01),history of hospitalization in recent 3 months (x2 =11.269,P ＜ 0.01),exposure to quinolones in recent 3 months (x2 =10.638,P ＜ 0.01),nosocomial infection (x2 =8.205,P ＜ 0.01),history of indwelling deep venous catheter or percutaneous central catheter in recent 3 months (x2 =4.817,P ＜ 0.05) and exposure to glucocorticoid hormone in recent 3 months (x2 =4.265,P ＜ 0.05) were associated with infection of ESBLs-producing strains.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that exposure to quinolones in recent 3 months (OR =6.851,P ＜ 0.01),prior infection with ESBLs-producing strains (OR =6.344,P ＜ 0.01),exposure to cephalosporins in recent 3 months (OR =3.719,P ＜ 0.01),and indwelling catheter in recent 3 months (OR =3.180,P ＜ 0.05) were independent risk factors for ESBLs-producing E.coli or K.pneumoniae infection.Conclusions ESBLs-producing E.coli or K.pneumoniae isolates are highly resistant to most antibiotics,and multidrug-resistance is common.Carbapenems were still the most effective antibiotics against ESBLs-producing E.coli or K.pneumoniae infection.Rational use of cephalosporins and quinolones,strictly following aseptic technique in operation,strict use of indications for indwelling catheterization,and completely eradicating ESBLs-producing strains in previous infections may be helpful in reducing bloodstream infections by ESBLs-producing E.coli or K.pneumoniae.

Objective:To investigate the expression of serum microRNA (miR)-92 in patients with liver cancer and its relationship with poor prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 70 patients with liver cancer in the First People′s Hospital of Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province and the Central Hospital of Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province from May 2015 to May 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The miR-92 expression level was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction method and compared with that of 80 healthy subjects. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the efficacy of serum miR-92 in diagnosing liver cancer and early stage (stage Ⅰ to Ⅱ) liver cancer. The relationship between serum miR-92 expression level and clinicopathological characteristic was analyzed. Independent risk factors affecting the prognosis in patients with liver cancer were analyzed by multivariate Cox regression model.Results:The expression level of serum miR-92 in patients with liver cancer was significantly higher than that in healthy subjects (4.10 ± 1.74 vs 1.88 ± 0.78), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). ROC curve analysis result showed that the area under curve (AUC) of serum miR-92 for the diagnosis liver cancer was 0.874, the best cut-off value was 2.43, the sensitivity was82.86%, and the specificity was 86.25%; the AUC of serum miR-92 for the diagnosis early liver cancer was 0.755, the best cutoff value was 2.38, the sensitivity was 68.57%, and the specificity was 84.42%. The serum miR-92 expression level was related to TNM stage and lymph node metastasis ( P<0.01), but not related to gender, age, tumor diameter, history of hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, degree of differentiation and portal vein tumor thrombus ( P>0.05). The 5-year overall survival rate in liver cancer patients with high serum miR-92 expression was significantly lower than that in liver cancer patients with low serum miR-92 expression (17.1% vs. 31.5%), and there was statistical difference ( χ2 = 5.561, P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis result showed that miR-92 was an independent risk factor affecting the prognosis in patients with liver cancer ( HR = 0.282, 95% CI 1.179 to 3.562, P<0.05). Conclusions:The expression level of serum miR-92 in patients with liver cancer is significantly increased, which plays an important role in the progression of the disease. Serum miR-92 can be used as an indicator for early diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of liver cancer.

BACKGROUND: Research shows that genetic factors are an important component of the congenital dislocation of the hip(CDH) . However, no susceptibility genes have been identified by now. The homebox-containing (HOX) genes that regulate the embryogenesis and vertebrate limb development may play a role in the pathogenesis of CDH.OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether a correlation exists between CDH and the Hox genes.DESIGN: Controlled study associated with family.SETTING: Department of aevelopmental pediatrics, genetic laboratory, department of pediatric orthopaedics in an affiliated hospital of a university.PARTICIPANTS: All the 101 CDH patients and their parents (altogether 303 members) were the in-patients from the Department of Pediatric Orthopaedics of the Second Clinical College of China Medical University; from December 1999 to January 2001. All the patients presented typical clinical manifestations and were diagnosed by X rays and operations for confirmation.METHODS: Four microsatellite markers D7S1808, D17S1820, D12S1686 and Hox4EP were selected in the chromosome regions of7p14 - 15, 17q21, 12q13and 2q31 where Hox A, Hox B, Hox C and Hox D genes which regulate the embryonic limb development reside respectively. Genotypes of 303 members in 101CDH families were analyzed by the techniques of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Then transmission disequilibrium test(TDT) was performed to analyze the data of genotypes.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The genotypes of four microsatellite markers D7S1808, D17S1820, D12S1686 and Hox4EP in every CDH family including one child and parents; transmission disequilibrium test between transmission alleles and non-transmission alleles.RESULTS: Transmission disequilibrium was found between CDH and allele 7 of D7S1808(X2 = 6. 045, P = 0. 014) among a total of 10 alleles detected, between CDH and allele 4 of D17S1820(X2 =6. 025, P =0. 014) among a total of 12 alleles detected, between CDH and allele 4 of Hox4Ep (X2 = 6. 461, P =0.011) among a total of 16 alleles detected. But no transmission disequilibrium was found between CDH and D12S1686(X2 = 6. 171,P =0. 965) with 16 alleles detected.CONCLUSION: CDH may be related to Hox A, Hox B, Hox D genes, and Hox A, Hox B, Hox D genes may be susceptibility genes in CDH.

Objective To discuss clinical effects of early (<48 hours after injury) fraeture exter-nal fixation in treatment of severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) combined with extremity fracture. Meth-ods The study involved patients with no statistical difference in aspects of age, sex, GCS, fracture ,distri-bution and general condition. According to different treatment methods at early stage (<48 hours), the pa-tients with TBI were divided into Group A (early extremity fracture external fixation) and Group B (early extremity fracture traction or cast immobilization). A comparative observation was done on complications in-cluding bedsore, pneumonia and deep venous thrombosis and on duration in ICU, hospitalization, time for fracture healing and mortality in two groups. Results Incidence rate of bedsore, pneumonia, deep ve-nous thrombosis and mortality in Group A was lower than that in Group B (P<0.05), and Group A had shorter time for ICU, hospitalization and fracture healing (P < 0.05). Conclusion For patients with se-vere TBI combined with extremity fracture, early fracture external fixation is more effective to reduce com-plications, shorten the recovery time and reduce mortality, compared with conservative methods.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility,safety and short-term outcome of laparoscopic-assisted surgery for colorectal cancer.Methods From August 2001 to November 2004,laparoscopic resection of colorectal carcinoma were performed in 112 cases,including right hemicolectomy(n=23),left himicolectomy(n=7),radical resection of sigmoid cancer(n=15),Dixon procedure(n=49),and Miles procedure(n=18).Results One hundred and five patients underwent laparoscopic resection successfully,7 cases were converted to open surgery because of hemorrhage,obesity or adhesion with adjacent organ,6 of which were left colon or rectal cancer.The mean operating time was(161.2?48.6)min,and the mean operative blood loss was 78.5 mL.There were 8 cases occurred postoperative complications,and no mortality during perioperative period.The length of upper and lower segment of resection for colonic cancer was (14.5?3.2)cm and(11.0?2.6)cm respectively.The length of upper and lower segment of resection for rectal cancer was(15.3?2.7)cm and(2.8?1.6)cm,respectively.The mean number of lymph nodes dissected was(8.2?4.6),and lymph node metastases were found in 49 cases.One hundred and seven cases(95.5%) were followed up for 8-44 months,of which,7 cases had local recurrence and 6 cases had distant metastases.No case of trocar port tumor implantation was observed.Conclusions Laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer is feasible and safe,can result in the same outcome as open radical surgery,and has the advantages of mini-invasive procedure.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prognostic value of fluid responsiveness in patients with acute respiratory stress syndrome (ARDS).Methods Fifty-nine mechanically ventilated patients with ARDS were enrolled.Their stroke volume variations (SVV) were detected by pulse contour continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) analysis device,and then the patients were subsequently divided into fluid responsive group (SVV≥15％) and fluid non-responsive group (SVV ＜ 15％ ).The differences in 28-day survival,length of ICU stay and duration of mechanical ventilation between the 2 groups were compared.Thereafter,the 28-day survival of patients was analyzed by Kaplain-Meier survival model and the relationship between SVV and mortality within 28 days was analyzed by logistic regression model.Results In comparison with fluid non-responsive group,the 28-day survival of fluid responsive group was significantly increased (85.3％ vs.56.0％,P =0.012),the length of ICU stay was significantly shortened [( 13.1 ±5.2 ) d vs. (21.6±9.0) d,P=0.008],and the duration of mechanical ventilation was significantly shortened as well [( 11.4 ± 5.3 ) d vs.( 18.3 ± 4.9) d,P =0.022] ; Logistic analysis revealed that SVV ＜ 15％ increased the risk of 28-day mortality ( OR =4.82 ; 95％ CI:2.67 ～ 11.71,P =0.009 ).ConclusionsSVV-based fluid responsiveness can be served as a prognostic predictor for ventilated patients with ARDS.
