Objective To investigate the hemostasis effect of alginate dressing for puncture point bleeding after peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) by ultrasound-guided modified Seldinger technique (MST).Methods Between November 2013 and May 2016, 538 cases of cancer in our department underwent PICC, including 270 cases from November 2013 to February 2015 selected as control group (after PICC was successfully placed, sterile gauze and 3M transparent film were used to fix the puncture point) and 268 cases from March 2015 to May 2016 selected as observation group (after PICC was successfully placed, alginate dressing, sterile gauze and 3M transparent film were used to fix the puncture point).The patients in both groups were given 20 minutes of pressure for puncture point and elastic bandage compression fixation for 24 h.The degree of puncture point bleeding and times of dressing change in 24 h and 24-72 h between the two groups were compared.Results In the observation group, mild, moderate, and severe bleeding was seen in 232 cases, 34 cases, and 2 cases within 24 h, and in 242 cases, 25 cases, and 1 case between 24-72 h, respectively.In the control group, mild, moderate, and severe bleeding was seen in 12 cases, 196 cases, and 62 cases within 24 h, and in 21 cases, 212 cases, and 37 cases between 24-72 h, respectively, with significant differences (Z=-18.647, P=0.000;Z=-18.768, P=0.000).In the observation group, there were zero, once, twice, and ≥3 times of puncture point dressing change in 232 cases, 33 cases, 3 cases, and 0 case within 24 h and in 242 cases, 25 cases, 1 case, and 0 case between 24-72 h, respectively.In the control group, there were zero, once, twice, and ≥3 times of puncture point dressing change in 12 cases, 196 cases, 51 cases, and 11 cases within 24 h and in 21 cases, 209 cases, 37 cases, and 3 cases between 24-72 h, respectively, with significant differences (Z=-18.560, P=0.000;Z=-18.755, P=0.000).Conclusion The hemostasis effect of alginate dressing for puncture point bleeding after ultrasound-guided PICC by MST is satisfactory.

Objective To investigate clinical significance of positive antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in diagnosis for vasculitis or other diseases. Methods From January 2005 to December 2008, 104 patients with positive ANCA detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in People's Hospital of Peking University were randomly selected and their clinical features and diagnoses were analyzed retrospectively. Results Among 104 ANCA-positive patients, 22 were diagnosed as vasculitis and 13 as ANCA-associated vasculitis, and 82 (78. 8% )were diagnosed as non-vasculitis including 40 of connective diseases such as systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and 42 of non-connective diseases with the most common of ulcerative colitis. According to the results of ANCA tests by ELISA, ANCA-positive patients could be divided into those with proteinase 3 (PR3)-positive and myeloperoxideaso (MPO)-positive. More organs were involved in MPO-positive patients (n =48 ) than that in PR3-positive ones ( n = 49), and more frequent involvement of the kidneys and less frequent involvement of the gastrointestinal tract in MPO-positive than those in PR3-positive ones (P < 0. 01 ). As compared to those with non-vasculitis, more organs (2. 28 organs vs. 3.55 organs in average) were involved in patients with vasculitis (P <0. 01 ) and more frequent involvement of the upper or lower respiratory tracts and the kidneys in vasculitis patients ( P <0. 01 or <0. 05, respectively). Elevated leukocyte count and accelerated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were also more common in vasculitis patients than those in non-vasculitis ones (P <0. 01 and P <0. 05, respectively). Positive ANCA combined with number of organs involved, clinical manifestations and other laboratory findings, its positive predictive value (PPV) in diagnosis for vasculitis can be improved. Conclusions Spectrum of disease in patients with positive ANCA was varied. Diagnostic value of positive ANCA in diagnosis for vasculitis can be improved if combined with comprehensive analysis of their clinical features and laboratory examinations.

Objective To explore the application effect of Sandwich teaching method in clinical teaching in the department of neurosurgery.Methods Totally 144 clinical medicine students were divided into 2 groups:Sandwich teaching group (n=72) and traditional teaching group (n=72).The analysis of test and the questionnaire of the students were conducted after the course.Comparison between the two groups was made using independent sample t test and measurement data were expressed as as ± s.P＜0.05 signifies statistically significant differences.Rank sum test was used to compare the distribution of the test scores.Results The test score was statistically higher in Sandwich teaching group than control group [(76.38 ± 10.84) vs.(69.67 ± 10.50)].And the main distribution of the test scores was 70～90 in Sandwich teaching group while 60～80 in control group.Questionnaire showed that the scores of Sandwich teaching group were statistically higher than those ofthe control group in five aspects such as enhancing self-learning ability,improving the ability to analyze and solve problems,and so on.Conclusions Sandwich teaching method achieves good teaching effect and it is worth recommending in clinical teachifig.

Objective To investigate the effects of peroxisome proliferators-activated receptorγ(PPARγ)agonist pioglitazone on the expressions of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and cyclin D1 in the hippocampal CA1 region after cerebral ischemia in rats.Methods Fifty-four Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:sham operation group,ischemia/reperfusion group,and pioglitazone intervention group (18 in each group).A rat middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion model was induced by the modified suture method.Continuous pioglitazone rosiglitazone gavage (0.65 mg/kg once a day) was conducted for 5 days before modeling in the pioglitazone intervention group.At day 1,3,and 7 after modeling the rats (6 at each time point) were sacrificed and their brains were removed.HE staining was used to detecte the pathological changes of neurons in the hippocampal CA1 region.Immunohistochemical staining was use to detect the expressions of GFAP and cyclin D1 in the hippocampal CA1 region.Results Compared to the sham operation group,at day 3 and 7 after ischemia/reperfusion,the number of neuronal survival in the hippocarmpal CA1 region in the ischemia/reperfusion group was significantly reduced (all P ＜ 0.01).The expressions of GFAP and Cyclin D1 at all time points were significantly upregulated (all P ＜ 0.01).At day 3 and 7 after ischemia/reperfusion,the numbers of neuronal survival in the hippocampal CA1 region in the pioglitazone intervention group were significantly increased (all P ＜0.01).Compared to the ischemia/reperfusion group,the expressions of GFAP and Cyclin D1 at all time points were significantly down-regulated (all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions PPARγagonist pioglitazone has a significant protective effect on neuron in the hippocampal CA1 region after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in rats.Its mechanism may be associated with inhibiting GFAP and cyclin D1 expressions.
