1.Strategy of the diagnosis and treatment for epistaxis and guideline for clinical application of MasterPillar.
Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2023;37(7):519-523
Epistaxis is a common otorhinolaryngological emergency with complex etiological factors and varied clinical manifestations. The key to epistaxis treatment is accurate diagnosis and adequate hemostasis. Electrocoagulation is a reliable, safe and effective treatment for epistaxis. However, there are still several deficiencies in application of the commonly used electrocoagulation surgical products. This paper introduces a new type of radiofrequency head incorporating the dynamic circulatory functions of drip, irrigation, hemostasis and aspiration. We aim to achieve noninvasive, effective and accurate hemostasis in the treatment of epistaxis or nasal sinus surgery.

Chinese Journal of Immunology 2015;31(12):1695-1698
Objective:To examine the expression of TRAF 6 in ovarian carcinomas ,discuss the relation between expression level and clinical characteristics of ovarian carcinomas and study the clinical significance .Methods: Specimens from 102 patients with ovarian carcinomas managed in our hospital between Augest 2001 and December 2009 were included in this study .Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of TRAF 6 in ovarian carcinomas and normal tissues .All the specimens were confirmed by pa-thology for ovarian carcinomas and normal tissues by HE staining .Then, the correlation between the expression and clinical characteristics of patients was analyzed .Furthermore ,survival analyses were performed according to the Kaplan-Meier method.Results:The positive expression rate of TRAF 6 in ovarian carcinomas and normal tissues was 68.6% and 20.5%, respectively.TRAF6 expression was significantly associated with tumor stage and distant metastasis ( P<0.05 ) .According to the survival analysis of 102 ovarian carcinomas patients ,cases in the TRAF6 low-expression group showed poorer overall survival rate when compared with low -expression group ( P<0.001 ) .Conclusion: These results indicate that the expression of TRAF 6 was closely related with in the progression of ovarian carcinomas and may have clinical utility in the prediction of prognosis of ovarian carcinomas .
3.Acupuncture Treatment Based on Lung-stomach Theory in Treating Post-infectious Cough
Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion 2015;(3):211-213
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture by selecting points from the Lung and Stomach Meridians based on the theory of accumulation in stomach and connection with lung in treating post-infectious cough.Method Ninety patients with post-infectious cough were randomized into treatment group 1, treatment group 2, and a control group. Treatment group 1 was intervened by acupuncture at points from the Lung and Stomach Meridians, treatment group 2 was by puncturing points from the Lung Meridian, and the control group was by oral administration of Compound Methoxyphenamine Capsule. Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ) was adopted for observation before and after intervention, and the symptom and clinical efficacies were compared between the groups.Result The total effective rate was 90.0% in treatment group 1, versus 83.3% in treatment group 2, and 80.0% in the control group. The total effective rate of treatment group 1 was significantly different from that in treatment group 2 and the control group (P<0.05). Regarding cough during the daytime, the total effective rate was 93.3% in treatment group 1, versus 83.3% in treatment group 2 and 76.7% in the control group. The total effective rate in treatment group 1 for cough during the daytime was significantly different from that in treatment group 2 and the control group, and the total effective rate in treatment group 2 was significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.05). For cough at night, the total effective rate in treatment group 1 was 86.7%, versus 80.0% in treatment group 2 and 80.0% in the control group. The total effective rate in treatment group 1 for cough at night was significantly different from that in treatment group 2 and the control group (P<0.05). The LCQ score in treatment group 1 was markedly different from that in treatment group 2 and the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture based on lung-stomach theory is an effective approach in treating post-infectious cough, and this method has an advantage of general regulation.

The Journal of Practical Medicine 2014;(20):3236-3238
Objective To explore the role of procalcitonin (PCT) in diagnosis and antibiotics therapy of community acquired pneumonia (CAP). Methods A total of 296 patients with CAP and 221 patients with other diseases were included. PCT levels between CAP patients and non-CAP patients, aged and non-aged CAP patients were analyzed. SPSS19.0 was used to make ROC, and the maximum Youden index to determine the optimal cutoff value, the corresponding sensitivity (SEN) and specificity (SPE). Results PCT levels in CAP patients were significantly higher than those in non-CAP (P<0.05). The diagnostic value of PCT in CAP was as follows: the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.67, the optimal cutoff value 0.055 ng/mL and the SEN and SPE were 0.55 and 0.77 respectively. For aged CAP patients, the values were 0.63, 0.055 ng/mL, 0.53 and 0.73 respectively and for non-aged CAP patients, the values were 0.73, 0.085 ng/mL, 0.53 and 0.90 respectively. The days of treatment in PCT-guided antibiotics therapy group were greatly less than those in clinical and radiology-guided antibiotics therapy (P<0.05), while there was no difference on relapse (P>0.05). Conclusion PCT has a high value in diagnosis and antibiotics therapy of CAP.

8.Emphasis on the cause-effect deduction in clinical studies——Discussion of association factors,predicting factors and risk factors
Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 2000;0(06):-
Cause-effect deduction is the basis of both natural and social sciences. Both wealthy knowledge and logical design are essential in obtaining the true causality among medical studies. Though association analysis provides important information for cause-effect deduction, it does not mean causality itself. Before the existence of the causality between two variables being identified, rigorous criteria must be followed. A number of indexes, such as the significance and the degree of the association, the dose-response relationship, the biology-based possibility, as well as the consistency and specificity, all should be examined very carefully. Clear verifiable hypotheses, rational selection of subjects, reliable experimental methods, appropriate statistical analysis and correct logical deductions, all are the integral parts that finally constitute a faithful deduction.
