Objective To discuss the effect of Yifei Mixture (YFM) on quality of life in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) at stable phase. Methods Sixty patients with COPD were randomly divided into the control group with small dose Aminophylline Sustained-release Tablets and inhaling Salbutamol or becotide (30 cases), and the observation group with YFM 100 mL, po, Bid (30 cases). Results There was significant statistical differences between the two groups, which shows that the observation group was superior to the control group in amelioration of syndrome, pulmonary function, the times of hospitalization yearlong days, single hospitalization and the integration of SGRQ. Conclusion YFM can slow down the progression of COPD, reduce the time of hospitalization and improve quality of life.

Objective To explore clinical significance of constriction of fetal ductus arteriosus diagnosed by echocardiography.Methods Seventy-one cases with constriction of fetal ductus arteriosus (DA) and one fetus with premature closure of DA were detected by fetal echocardiography among 2380 singleton fetuses.The echocardiographic characteristics and clinical outcomes were reviewed and analyzed.Results Of 71 cases with constriction of fetal DA,58 cases were found with right heart enlargement,12 cases with tricuspid regurgitation,8 cases with arrhythmia and 1 case with pericardial effusion.The echocardiographic characteristics showed narrowed diameter of DA,dilatation of pulmonary artery and descending aorta was also noted,DA was markedly curved.The peak systolic velocity(PSV) and enddiastolic velocity(EDV) in the ductus arteriosus measured by pulsed Doppler echocardiography increased (PSV≥ 180 cm/s,EDV≥35 cm/s).All cases were confirmed normal by neonate echocardiography.Conclusions Prenatal echocardiography plays important role in diagnosis of constriction of fetal DA.Early diagnosis and intimate follow-up can direct clinician to offer suitable consultation for parents and management for fetuses.

Objective To observe the effect of atropine in the treatment of bromiderosis with anhydrous alcohol injection. Methods Patients were randomly divided into two groups (A and B): the patients in Group A was injected with both anhydrous alcohol and atropine, and that in Group B was only injected with anhydrous alcohol. The effect of the operation was evaluated at 1, 3 and 6 months after the treatment. Results From August 2004 to January 2008, 72 patients were involved in this study. 37 cases were included in Group A, and 35 patients were included in Group B. The effective rate in the Group A was 83.78 %, and that in the Group B was 82.86 %. There was no statistical difference between these two groups. Conclusion Atropine has no effect on the treatment of axillary bromidrosis with anhydrous alcohol injection and it is, therefore, not necessarily included in the treatment.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and feasibility of the in-situ needle fenestration combined with the in vitro physician modified fenestration technique to reconstruct supra-aortic branches during thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for aortic arch lesions requiring landing at Z0 and Z1.Methods:From Nov 2017 to Dec 2019, eighteen patients who underwent both the in-situ needle fenestration and the in vitro physician modified fenestration techniques to extend the proximal landing zone to Z0 and Z1 during TEVAR were included in our study.Results:Sixteen patients underwent in vitro physician modified fenestration ,two patients underwent in vitro physician modified fenestration to reconstruct both the left common carotid artery and the innominate artery. All eighteen patients received in-situ needle fenestration to preserve the left subclavian artery. Supra aortic branches were preserved in all patients (38/38, 100%). There was no Type Ⅰ endoleak. Type Ⅱ endoleak was found in four paitnets (4/18). Type Ⅲ endoleak occurred in one patient (1/18). Type Ⅳ endoleak in four patients (4/18). Type Ⅲ endoleak needed open aortic arch repair 6 months later. The median follow-up time was 12 months. One (1/18) died in 12 months and the other patients were doing well.Conclusions:The joint application of the in-situ needle fenestration and the in vitro physician modified fenestration to reconstruct supra-aortic branches during TEVAR for aortic arch pathologies requiring landing at Z0 and Z1 was satisfactory.

Objective To establish reference values of normal fetal heart conduction time intervals by tissue Doppler imaging(TDI)and pulsed Doppler(PD)echocardiography,and to assess their correlation with gestational-age and fetal heart rate.Methods One hundred and eighty-nine pregnant women underwent detailed echocardiographic examinations.Atrio-ventricular conduction time interval(AV)and the time interval from onset of ventricular contraction to the onset of atrial contraction of next cardiac cycle(VA)were measured by TDI and PD echocardiography.Results TDI-AV was(126.56±15.33)ms(95% CI 124.10～129.03 ms),TDI-VA was(285.22±24.53)ms(95% CI 281.27～289.16 ms),PD-AV was(127.42±12.88)ms(95% CI 125.35～129.49 ms),PD-VA was(287.42±25.19)ms(95% CI 283.37～291.47 ms).A paired t test revealed no systematic difference between the two approaches used to measure AV and VA.AV and VA were significantly positively correlated with gestational age,and significantly negatively correlated with fetal heart rate.Heart conduction time intervals were altered in fetus with paroxysmal arrhythmia.Conclusions This study established the normal values of fetal heart conduction time intervals.Prenatal determination of fetal heart conductional time intervals has important potential clinical utility in assessing fetal arrhythmia.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the expression of CD103 +CD8 +T cells in locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (LA-OSCC), and the response to neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy (NACI). Methods:Thirty LA-OSCC patients from the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, who underwent NACI from June 2020 to December 2022 were analyzed, including 16 responders and 14 non-responders. Using multiple immunofluorescence technique to stain sections of patients to verify the correlation between the expression of CD103 +CD8 +T cells and the efficacy of NACI. CD103 +CD8 +T cell density was counted using Inform and HALO software. The Spearman correlation coefficient in rank correlation is used to describe the correlation between CD103 +CD8 +T cell and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic immune inflammation index (SII) It′s effectiveness as a predictive marker to NACI was analyzed by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and decision curve analysis (DCA). Two-tailed t-test or Mann-Whitney U-test was used to compare data between two groups, and one-way ANOVA was used to compare data between multiple groups. SPSS 22.0 and GraphPad prism 9.0 software were used for statistical analysis and plotting of relevant statistical graphs such as histograms. P<0.05 was considered a statistically significant difference. Results:The density of CD103 +CD8 +T cells has expanded in advanced OSCC patients who are responsive to NACI. The CD103 +CD8 +T cell densities in the responsive and nonresponsive groups were 118.30(41.92, 197.80) pcs/mm 2 and 21.63(4.91, 71.92) pcs/mm 2 respectively, with statistically significant differences( U=52.00, P=0.012). CD103 +CD8 +T cell abundance was negatively correlated with NLR, dNLR, PLR, and SII ( P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC for predicting efficacy of NLR, dNLR, PLR, and SII were 0.781 ( P=0.009, 95% CI: 0.5715-0.9910), 0.671 ( P=0.105, 95% CI: 0.467-0.881), 0.679 ( P=0.020 95% CI: 0.549-0.951), 0.750 ( P=0.096, 95% CI: 0.461-0.896), respectively. The AUC for CD103 +CD8 +T cells alone was 0.861 ( P=0.013, 95% CI: 0.585-0.950), and the AUC of combining CD103 +CD8 +T cells with NLR was 0.896 ( P=0.025, 95% CI: 0.454-0.938). Conclusions:The density of CD103 +CD8 +T cells is expanded in advanced OSCC patients who are responsive to NACI. CD103 +CD8 +T cells positively predict favorable responses as a strong indicator to NACI in advanced OSCC patients. Co-interpretation of CD103 +CD8 +T cells and NLR value enhances the predictive accuracy of NACI in advanced OSCC patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of omeprazole on plasma concentration, efficacy and adverse reactions of capecitabine in patients with colon cancer. Methods Seventy?two patients with colon cancer treated with capecitabine were analysed retrospective. The patients treated with capecitabine combined with omeprazole were identified as experimental group and the capecitabine treatment alone as control group. The differences of blood concentration and the side effects of capecitabine between these two groups were compared. Results The plasma concentration of 5?Fluorouracilum in experimental group was ( 126.25 ± 50.59) μg／ml, without significant difference of (123.09±56.70) μg／ml in control group (P＝0.121). The incidence of Ⅲ to Ⅳ degree bone marrow suppression, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and hand?foot syndrome in experimental group were 13.8%, 0%, 0% and 19.4%, respectively. In control group, the incidence ofⅢto Ⅳdegree bone marrow suppression, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and the hand?foot syndrome were 11.1%, 0%, 0% and 19.4%, respectively, without significant difference of experimental group ( P＞0.05). The incidence of acid reflux and heartburn in the control group was 72.2%, significantly higher than 44.4% of the experimental group ( P＜0.05). The objective response rate ( ORR) and progression?free survival time (PFS) in these two groups were 30.6% and 33.3%, and 8.0 month and 8.5 month, respectively, without significant difference (P＞0.05). Conclusion The intravenous omeprazole attenuates reflux and heartburn of colon cancer patients treated with capecitabine, without affecting its plasma concentration and side effects and has no impact on the PFS of these patients.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic efficiency of patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor-2(HER-2)over expressed breast cancer via combining the dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging(DCE-MRI)perfusion parameters,apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)value and clinical feature model.Methods A total of 197 breast cancer patients who underwent DCE-MRI and diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)scans were analyzed retrospectively,including 47 breast cancer patients with HER-2 over expressed and 150 breast cancer patients with non-HER-2 over expressed.The t-test or chi-square test was used to compare the DCE-MRI perfusion parameters[Ktrans,Kep,Ve,W-in,W-out,and time to peak(TTP)],ADC value,and clinical feature between the two groups.The diagnostic efficiency of the models were analyzed via receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves.Results There were significant difference in the maximum tumor diameter,minimum tumor diameter,T stage,N stage,Kep,W-in,and ADC value between HER-2 over expressed breast cancer and non-HER-2 over expressed breast cancer groups(P＜0.05).The proposed combined model,which included the combined maximum tumor diameter,minimum tumor diameter,T stage,N stage,Kep,W-in,and ADC value,showed a better diagnostic efficiency with area under the curve(AUC)(AUC=0.763)than the clinical model(AUC=0.634)based on the combined maximum tumor diameter,minimum tumor diameter,T stage,and N stage,and the imaging model(AUC=0.715)based on the combined Kep,W-in and ADC value.Conclusion The maximum tumor diameter,minimum tumor diameter,T stage,N stage,Kep,W-in,and ADC value may be associated with HER-2 over expressed breast cancer.Combining all above parameters can improve the diagnostic ability of breast cancer patients with HER-2 over expressed.

Based on the theory of ascending and descending of center qi， it is believed that yang deficiency and water dampness， as well as abnormal circulation of center qi， are the core pathogenesis of psoriasis. The common pathogenic evolution of psoriasis includes wood constraint and blood stagnation， lung metal fluid exhaustion. In the later stage of psoriasis， a mixture of deficiency and excess patterns， as well as cold and heat in complexity， are often observed. Treatment focuses on warming yang and resolving dampness to restore proper qi ascending and descending， and the therapeutic formulas such as Ganjiang Lingzhu Decoction （甘姜苓术汤）， Zexie Decoction （泽泻汤）， Zhenwu Decoction （真武汤）， and Linggui Zhugan Decoction （苓桂术甘汤） are suggested based on the nature and location of the disease. To unblock the qi movement through discharging the liver and rectifying the lung， Xiaochaihu Decoction （小柴胡汤） and Danzhi Xiaoyao Powder （丹栀逍遥散） are commonly used as the foundation with modifications. To balance yin and yang through clearing the heart and nourishing the kidneys， a self-designed Changzhong Decoction （畅中汤） is utilized. Following the theory of ascending and descending of center qi， it is suggested to combine cold and warm medicinals and mediate the center earth， so as to promote the circulation of the center qi， restore the clear and the turbid， and keep four-dimensional smooth flow of qi， providing a reference for traditional Chinese medicine treatment for psoriasis.
