Objective To review the experience of perioperative management and effect of valve replacement combined with renal dysfunction.Methods 536 cases of valve replacement.According to preoperative glomerular filtration rate(GFR),renal dysfunction was classified as normal in 322 cases,mild in 162,moderate in 40 and severe in 12.Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the effect of preoperative renal dysfunction on operative mortality and morbidity.Results Patients with a lower GFR were older and more likely to have hypertention.They also tended to have larger left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and worse left ventricular ejection factor.Operative mortality rose inversely with declining renal function,from 2％ for those with normal renal function to 17％ for patients with severe renal dysfunction.Renal dysfunction was significantly associated with a large blood transfusions,re-intubation,longer mechanical ventilation,intensive care unit stay and hospital stay.Conclusion Preoperative renal dysfunction is an important factor of postoperative mortality and morbidity for valve replacement.We must pay more attention to perioperative management.

Objective To review the experience of perioperative management and effect of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for patients of aged＞80 years.Methods We studied 118 cases with CABG for patients of age＞80 years from January 2002 to December 2012.The other 1034 cases with CABG for patients aged 60-80 years were enrolled as control group.Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the effect of age on operative mortality and morbidity.Results The recent mortality was higher in group aged＞80 years [6.8％(8 cases) vs.3.1％(32 cases)].Through multivariate logistic regression,the patients aged＞80 years versus control were concerned about some postoperative adverse events as follows:higher mortality (OR =3.45,95 ％ CI:2.86-4.23),dialysis (OR=3.56,95％CI:3.01-4.32) and re-intubation(OR=3.87,95％CI:3.45-4.87),delayed healing of incision(OR=4.05,95 ％ CI:3.47 5.74),prolonged mechanical ventilation(OR=3.76,95 ％ CI:3.435.01),prolonged ICU stay (OR =2.98,95 ％ CI:2.67 4.12),prolonged hospital stay (OR =2.87,95％CI:2.36-3.96).Conclusions Age＞80 years is an important factor of postoperative mortality and morbidity for CABG.We need pay more attention to perioperative management.

Objective To observe the effect of Ginkgolide B of various consistency on the differentiation of neuron stem cells (NSCs).MethodsNSCs were cultured in differentiation medium containing Ginkgolide B of various consistency for 3 and 7 days, the neurites length and cell body area were measured by inverted phase-contrast micrograph, then neurofilament-200 (NF-200), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), adenomatus polyposis coli (CC-1) expression were detected and counted by fluorescence microscope. The suppressor of cytokine signaling-2 (SOCS2), inhibitor of DNA binding-2 (Id2) were alsoimmunostained. The percentage of positive cells were counted respectively.ResultsThe neurites length and cell body area in Ginkgolide B groups were obviously larger than that in the control group. The percentage of NF, GFAP positive cells in Ginkgolide B groups increased with dosage increasing of Ginkgolide B. Compared with the normal control group, the percentage of SOCS2 positive cells increased significantly ( P<0.01) and the percentage of Id2 positive cells decreased significantly ( P<0.01) in Ginkgolide B groups.ConclusionGinkgolide B can promote NSCs to differentiate into neuron and astrocyte, the percentage of astrocyte is increased with a dosage-dependent relationship with Ginkgolide B.

Objective To detect the mutations in ATP2C1 gene of 5 sporadic patients with Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD).Methods Five sporadic patients with HHD collected from the outpatient clinic setting were recruited into this study with informed consent.Blood samples were taken from all patients and 100 unrelated human controls.and DNA was extracted from these samples.Mutation scanning was carried out for ATP2C1 gene by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and direct sequencing.Results The diagnosis of all cases was confirmed by typical clinical manifestation,cutaneous pathology and immunofluorescence pathology.Five novel mutations.including a deletion mutation (2025delG),three missence mutations (L269R,C348R,A651D) and a non-sense mutation (Q259X) were identified in these cases.No mutations were detected in any of the 100 controls.Conclusion Five novel mutations in ATP2C1 gene have been identified for Hailey-Hailey disease.

Objective To investigate the clinical and radiological features of psoriatic arthritis,and to offer a basis to the formulation of diagnostic and classification criteria for psoriatic arthritis with high sensitivity and specificity.Methods A cross-sectionaI and retrospective study was performed to analyze the clinical and radiological features of 61 patients with confirmed diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis,along with the clinical onset features and evolution rules of the disease.These features were compared with the traditional criteria for psoriatic arthritis.Results These patients exhibited divelse clinical and radiological features.Of the five types of arthritis involved in the traditional criteria,distal interphalangeal arthritis was diagnosed in 38 patients,asymmetric pauciarthritis in 5 padents,symmetric polyarthritis in 33 patients,arthritis mutilans in 4 patients,ankylosing spondylitis in 12 patients,and they symptomatically overlapped each other.Other types of arthropathy,which were not included in the traditional criteria,were also observed in these patients.For example,undifferentiated spondyloarthropathy was diagnosed in 17(28%)patients,peripheral enthesitis in 19(31%)patients,and arthritis in privileged sites in 6(10%)patients(5 in temporomandibular joint and 1 in sternoclavicular joint).In the case of radiological profiles in the traditional criteria,pen cap-like abnormality due to bone absorption was noticed in 6 cases,sharpening of finger tips in 6 cases,bamboo-like syndesmophyte in 5 cases,sacroiliitis grade 3-4 in 8 cases.Other radiological manifestations which were beyond the traditional criteria but found in the patients included fluffy periostitis(n=19),hyperostosis with ill-defined edge(n=12),bone erosion(n=25),local and assymmetry syndesmophyte(n=8),sacroiliitis grade 2-3(n=8),etc.The clinical findings hinted that psoriatic arthritis had diverse onset features,and took on a progressive course.Conclusions Psoriatic arthritis displays a diverse clinical,radiological and onset feature as well as a complicated evolution.The traditional criteria only cover partial characters,and could not satisfy the need for early diagnosis and accurate classification of psoriatic arthritis,and there is an urgent demand for the formulation of a new diagnostic and classification criteria for this disease.

Objective:To compare the clinical effects of hip arthroplasty through direct anterior approach (DAA) in lateral decubitus in the treatment of hip osteoarthritis caused by Kaschin-Beck disease and congenital acetabular dysplasia.Methods:The prospective study method was used to select the patients who needed hip arthroplasty in the Fourth Department of Orthopedics, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2015 to December 2019. All of them were operated with lateral decubitus DAA. According to the inclusion criteria, they were divided into Kacshin-Beck disease hip osteoarthritis group (group A) and congenital acetabular dysplasia hip osteoarthritis group (group B). Hip Harris score, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score, visual analogue scale (VAS) score were conducted, and hip abduction angle and flexion angle were measured before surgery, 3, 14 days and 1, 3, and 12 months after surgery.Results:Nineteen and twenty-two patients were included in group A and group B, respectively. All patients successfully completed the surgery. There was no significant difference in Harris score between the two groups before surgery, 3, 14 days, and 1, 12 months after surgery ( P > 0.05). There were no significant differences in WOMAC score, VAS score, hip abduction angle and hip flexion angle between the two groups before surgery and each time point after surgery ( P > 0.05). In the same group, there were significant differences in Harris score, WOMAC score, VAS score, hip abduction angle and hip flexion angle at different time points ( P < 0.001). All postoperative indicators were significantly improved compared with those before surgery. Conclusions:There is no significant difference in the clinical effects of hip arthroplasty through lateral decubitus DAA in the treatment of hip osteoarthritis caused by Kaschin-Beck disease and congenital acetabular dysplasia. This surgical method has good therapeutic effect on both types of hip osteoarthritis.

To scientifically evaluate the intervention effect of Chinese medicine preventive administration(combined use of Huo-xiang Zhengqi Oral Liquid and Jinhao Jiere Granules) on community population in the case of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19), a large cohort, prospective, randomized, and parallel-controlled clinical study was conducted. Total 22 065 subjects were included and randomly divided into 2 groups. The non-intervention group was given health guidance only, while the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) intervention group was given two coordinated TCM in addition to health guidance. The medical instructions were as follows. Huoxiang Zhengqi Oral Liquid: oral before meals, 10 mL/time, 2 times/day, a course of 5 days. Jinhao Jiere Granules: dissolve in boiling water and take after meals, 8 g/time, 2 times/day, a course of 5 days, followed up for 14 days, respectively. The study found that with the intake of medication, the incidence rate of TCM intervention group was basically maintained at a low and continuous stable level(0.01%-0.02%), while the non-intervention group showed an overall trend of continuous growth(0.02%-0.18%) from 3 to 14 days. No suspected or confirmed COVID-19 case occurred in either group. There were 2 cases of colds in the TCM intervention group and 26 cases in the non-intervention group. The incidence of colds in the TCM intervention group was significantly lower(P<0.05) than that in the non-intervention group. In the population of 16-60 years old, the incidence rate of non-intervention and intervention groups were 0.01% and 0.25%, respectively. The difference of colds incidence between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.05). In the population older than 60 years old, they were 0.04% and 0.21%, respectively. The incidence of colds in the non-intervention group was higher than that in the intervention group, but not reaching statistical difference. The protection rate of TCM for the whole population was 91.8%, especially for the population of age 16-60(95.0%). It was suggested that TCM intervention(combined use of Huoxiang Zhengqi Oral Liquid and Jinhao Jiere Granules) could effectively protect community residents against respiratory diseases, such as colds, which was worthy of promotion in the community. In addition, in terms of safety, the incidence of adverse events and adverse reactions in the TCM intervention group was relatively low, which was basically consistent with the drug instructions.
