Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of procalcitonin (PCT) ,C‐reactive protein(CRP) and white blood cell (WBC) count in children with respiratory tract infection .Methods A total of 358 children inpatients with respiratory tract infec‐tion in the pediatric department of our hospital from 2014 January to June 2015 were selected and divided into the bacterial infection group and non‐bacterial infection group according to the throat swabs and sputum culture results .The venous blood was collected before and after treatment for detecting PCT ,CRP and WBC count ;meanwhile 30 healthy children were selected as the control group .Results The PCT ,CRP and WBC levels in the bacterial infection group were significantly increased compared with the non‐bacterial infection group and control group(P<0 .01) ,while which in the non‐bacterial infection group were relatively close to those in the control group(P>0 .05);but the PCT ,CRP and WBC count levels after 1‐week treatment in the bacterial infection group were significantly decreased compared with before treatment (P<0 .01) ,while which in the non‐bacterial infection group had little change between before and after treatment (P>0 .05) .Conclusion The combined detection of PCT ,CRP and WBC count has an important application value in the differential diagnosis and medication guidance of the children′s respiratory tract infection .

Objective To investigate the prevalence of the depression and the activities of daily living in the elderly population in Hebei province.Methods In this cross-sectional study,3 176 subjects aged over 60 were selected from 4 urban communities in Hebei Province.The demographic data was collected,and the Center for Epidemiological Survey,Depression Scale,(CES-D) and the activities of daily living Scale (ADL) were used to assess their depression status and activities of daily living.Results Among the 3 176 subjects,268 cases (8.4％) got the CES-D scores of over 15 and 232 cases (7.3％) got the ADL scores of over 26.14.2％ of depression group needed life care,27.9％ of depression group had absence of daily living activities.Multivariate logistic results showed that gender (OR=2.142),diseases situation (OR=2.214),marriage (OR=0.484),and life abilities like shower (OR =1.333),walk around home (OR=1.275),wear clothes(OR=2.129),moving on a wheelchair(OR=1.118) had significant effect on depression.Conclusion Elder people population who have characteristics like female,single,illness,can't take shower by themselves,life care depended,more likely get higher CES-D scores and depression.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors for post-discharge treatment compliance of patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB).Methods MDR-TB patients who were hospitalized in a tubercu-losis hospital between November 2011 and January 2013 were chosen,post-discharge follow-up was conducted regu-larly through telephone call.Medicine-taking and re-examination of patients was inquired,factors influencing pa-tients’treatment compliance were analyzed.Results 299 patients were included in the study,the total treatment compliance rate was 81 .94% (n=245);249(83.28%)patients regularly took medicine,50(16.72%)didn’t regu-larly take medicine;254 (84.95%)were re-examined on time,45 (15.05%)were not re-examined on time;37 (12.37%)discontinued treatment,260 (86.96%)continuously treated till the survey deadline.Univariate analysis revealed that treatment compliance (including regular medication rate,timely re-examination rate,interrupted treat-ment rate,and total compliance rate)was significantly different among MDR-TB patients of different ages,education levels,treatment time,and with or without adverse reactions(all P <0.05 ).Logistic regression analysis revealed that treatment compliance of MDR-TB patients was negatively correlated with treatment time(β=-1 .47,Wald χ2=24.28,P <0.05)and adverse reactions(β=-2.02,Waldχ2 =24.24,P <0.05 ),while positively correlated with education levels(β=0.79,Wald χ2 =6.50,p <0.05 ).Conclusion Prolonged treatment time and adverse reactions can reduce the treatment compliance of MDR-TB patients,the higher education levels of MDR-TB patients have, the better treatment compliance they implement.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS) guided ethanol ablation in patients with insulinoma. Methods The data of 10 patients with insulinoma trea-ted at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from December 2013 to January 2015 were prospectively analyzed. Results The patients were given EUS-guided ethanol ablation with dose of 0. 10 to 2. 00 ml(average 0. 70 ± 0. 62 ml)in pancreatic lesions for 15 times. No complications were observed dur-ing and after the procedure. The blood glucose improved after the procedure[4. 8(3. 9-5. 5)mmol/ L VS 2. 4 (1. 9-2. 5)mmol/ L,P < 0. 05]and the serum insulin level significantly decreased[83. 7(40. 1-143. 5) pmol/ L VS 177. 3(66. 5-200. 6)pmol/ L,P<0. 05]. The average hospital stay was(4. 3±1. 5)days. The patients were followed up for 6-12 months. EUS indicated that the echo of pancreatic lesions changed from high to low. CE-EUS revealed low enhancement and lack of blood supply. Conclusion EUS-guided ethanol ablation may become a promising minimally invasive treatment for insulinoma because of its safety,efficacy and low price.

Objective To investigate clinical significance and application of modified pelvic floor reconstruction developed by Peking Union Medical College Hospital ( MPFR ) in treatment of severe pelvic organ prolapse (POP) by comparing the effectiveness, quality of postoperative sexual life, life satisfaction and risk factors for POP recurrence with the following two surgical procedures: traditional total vaginal hysterectomy with anterior-posterior colporrhaphy (TVH-APC) and total vaginal hysterectomy with lateral colporrhaphy and sacrospinous ligament fixation and vaginal bridge repair and episiotomy (TVH-LC-SSLFVBR-EP). Methods Totally 173 patients with severe POP and at least two compartments defects of pelvic floor underwent surgeries in the study, 86 patients (group A) were treated by MPFR with polypropylene mesh application, 58 (group B) were treated by TVH-APC, and 29 patients (group C) were treated by TVH-LC-SSLF-VBR-EP. Peri-operative data and outcomes of postoperative courses at 6, 12, 18 months were collected and analyzed, in the meantime, the risk factors of recurrence were studied. Results (1) No statistical difference was observed among the above 3 groups in terms of length of operation, amount of blood loss, length of hospital stay, and morbidity after surgery ( P ＞ 0.05). ( 2 ) Cost hospitalization was ( 11 448 ±3049) Yuan in group A, which was significantly higher than (7262 ± 1607) Yuan in group B and (7140 ± 1817 ) Yuan in group C (P ＜ 0.05 ). (3) The length of vaginal cuff of (7.5 ± 1.4) cm in group A and ( 5.6 ± 1.1 ) cm in group C were significantly longer than (7.1±0.6) cm in group B ( P＜0.05). The width of vaginal cuff of (4.3±0.3) cm in group A was larger than (3.4±0.3) cm in group B and (3.3±0.4) cm in group C (P＜0.05). (4) The recurrence rate at 12 months after surgery was 12.8% (11/86)in group A, which was similar with 17.2%(5/29) in group C (P＞0.05) and significantly less than 36.2% (21/58) in group B (P＜0.05). The rate of active sexual life of 16.3% (14/86) in group A was significantly higher than 1.7% (1/58) in group B and 0 in group C ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). The index of life quality improvement at 12 months after surgery was 48±12 in group A, which was no less than 53±16 in group C ( P＞0.05) and higher than 27 ± 9 in group B ( P＜0.05). (5 ) Mesh rejection was observed in 6 patients in group A within 3 months after surgery, while the posterior vaginal wall was exclusively involved. No difference was found in urinary retention or urinary incontinence among three groups (P ＞0. 05 ). (6) The severe degree of POP, type of surgical procedure ( TVT-APC), anterior compartment defect of pelvic floor,and early days of performing pelvic floor reconstruction surgeries were high risk factors for POP recurrence (P＜ 0.05). Conclusions MPFR has a better curative effect and lower recurrence rate on patients with POP. It can help patients regain integrity of anatomical structure and functions of pelvic floor. TVH-LCSSLF-VBR-EP is also effective.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) on the growth and metabolism of Porphyromonas gingivalis (P.g).

METHODSAfter adding different concentrations of PABA into the medium, anaerobic technique was applied to culture P.g. The products' A value and action of TLP was assayed, and P.g grew in the medium was observed by a scanning electron microscope.

RESULTSPABA promoted the growth of P.g and action of TLP, which would reach the highest level when PABA was 1 mg/L, and would decrease with the increasing of concentration of PABA. When the concentration arrived at 100 mg/L, PABA had no effect on them. In the mean time, PABA had effect on the form and adherence of P.g. When the concentration was 1 mg/L and 100 mg/L, this effect was strong, but as the concentration was 10 mg/L, the effect disappeared.

CONCLUSIONSPABA influences the growth and metabolism of P.g, which indicate that Streptococcus sanguis has regulative effect on the microecology of subgingival plaque.

Objective:To analyze and explore the independent risk factors of 28-day mortality in patients with septic myocardial injury.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to collect clinical data of 505 patients diagnosed with sepsis related myocardial injury admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from January 2015 to December 2020. According to the 28-day survival status of patients, they were divided into survival group and death group. COX multivariate regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of the 28-day mortality rate of sepsis related myocardial injury patients, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn to evaluate the effectiveness of independent risk factors in predicting the 28-day mortality rate of sepsis related myocardial injury patients.Results:A total of 505 patients with sepsis myocardial injury were included, of which 282 survived on 28 days and 223 died, with a mortality rate of 44.16%. COX multivariate regression analysis showed that Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score, blood lactate (LAC), oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), admission heart rate, and albumin were independent risk factors for sepsis associated myocardial injury mortality at 28 days (all P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of SOFA score was 0.766 2, and the 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.724 5-0.807 9; The predictive value of 28-day mortality in sepsis associated myocardial injury patients was superior to APACHE Ⅱ score, LAC, PaO 2/FiO 2, admission heart rate, and albumin [The AUC values were 0.754 1(0.711 5-0.796 7), 0.752 6(0.710 1-0.795 1), 0.697 0(0.649 7-0.744 2), 0.623 2(0.573 7-0.672 7), and 0.620 3(0.570 8-0.669 7), respectively]. Conclusions:SOFA score, APACHE Ⅱ score, LAC, PaO 2/FiO 2, admission heart rate, and albumin are independent risk factors for the 28-day mortality rate of sepsis related myocardial injury. Clinical practice should identify these factors early, intervene early, and improve patient prognosis.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of WeChat platform online service on the safety of pediatric family medica-tion and the quality of pharmaceutical care. METHODS:The online consultation records of"Qs and As for pediatric medications"were collected and summarized from the WeChat platform(WeChat ID:etyywd)during Jun.1st,2014-Dec.31st,2015 in our hos-pital. Statistical analysis was performed on the consulting time periods,age of pediatric patients with consultation demands,and the systems and mistake types involved in medication consultations. RESULTS:A total of 29 850 dialogue records on WeChat were collected,and 13 315 of these were related to medications(44.61%). The peak time of medication consultation was at 9:00-10:00 in the morning,with an accumulative consultation number of 1 840 cases(13.82%);while the least consultation time pe-riod was at 4:00-5:00 early in the morning,with only 13 cases(0.10%).Pediatric patients in need of consultation were more with-in the age of 1-6 years old,and most of them were preschool children(31.20%)and toddlers(26.32%). The systems consulted mainly involved the respiratory system,immune system and digestive system;in which respiratory system had the most cases (60.28%). There were 1 508 Qs and As records for medication mistakes that were occured or may occure and were corrected in time(11.33%),in which the mistake types were mainly the unsuitable use of antipyretics(3.91%),antibiotics abuse(3.14%), careless use of combination medication and excessive medication(3.04%),excessively large or small doses(0.69%),improper use of nebulized inhalant after discharge(0.41%),and excessive use of vitamins(0.14%). CONCLUSIONS:The WeChat plat-form expands the service scope of clinical pharmacists.As an extension of hospital pharmaceutical care,it reduces the risk of fami-ly medication mistakes due to a patient's or members'wrong recognition to a certain degree,reinforces communication between doctors and patients,and improves the experience of medical services.
