Objective To explore the effective means and important significance for preventing the born of neonatal patients with severe thalassemia.Methods Among the pregnant women and spouses receiving prenatal examination in our hospital from January 2013 to December 2015 were performed the thalassemia screening and gene diagnosis,49 couples carrying the same type thalassemia were conducted the prenatal amniotic fluid thalassemia gene diagnosis and follow up after prenatal diagnosis.Results In 49 couples carrying the same type thalassemia,the main gene mutation types of α-thalassemia detected by the gene diagnosis were --SEA/aα(50.0％),-α3.7/αa (36.5％) and-α4.2/αa (11.5％),which of β-thalassemia were CD17/N(42.0％),CD41-42/N (26.0％) and IVS-Ⅱ-654/N(22.0％).The results of prenatal diagnosis showed that there were 4 cases of HbH disease,2 cases of Bart's hydrops fetus,10 cases of severe β-thalassemia,19 a-thalassemia carriers,10 β-thalassemia carriers,1 case of co-inheritance of a-and β-thalassemia,and 3 health fetuses.The follow up results were consistent with those of prenatal diagnosis.Conclusion Conducting prenatal screening and diagnosis of thalassemia in pregnant women can effectively prevent the birth of neonatal patients with severe thalassemia.

Objective:To investigate the expression level of synaptophysin (Syn), tissue neuronal cell adhesion molecule 56 (CD56) and chromogranin A (CgA) in 92 primary esophageal small cell carcinoma (PESC) and to explore its repationship with clinicopathological features and clinical outcome. Methods:Immunohistochemical studies of CD56, CgA, and Syn were performed in 92 paraffin-embed-ded tissues with clinical-related information obtained from 500,000 esophageal and gastric cardia carcinoma databases established by Henan Key Laboratory for Esophageal Cancer Research of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in Henan, China. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the correlations of CgA, Syn, and CD56 expression with clinicopathological features. Kaplan-Mei-er survival analysis and Cox proportional hazards regression models were performed for univariate and multivariate survival analyses. Log-rank test was used to compare the difference in survival rates. Results:The CgA-positive expression rate in PESC at lower segment of esophagus (72.2%) was higher than those at the middle and lower segments (41.1%, 10.0%) (P=0.001). The expression level of CD56, CgA, and Syn was not correlated with gender (P=0.262, 0.998, 0.931), age (P=0.250, 0.998, 0.703), tumor invasion (P=0.253, 0.997, 0.061), and lymph node metastasis (P=0.767, 0.998, 0.613). Univariate analysis showed no survival influence in patients with and without lymph node metastasis (P=0.563). Multivariate survival analysis showed that patients with PESC mixed squamous cell car-cinoma (HR=2.58;95%Cl, 1.11-5.98) and higher CgA protein expression (HR=1.87;95%Cl, 1.02-3.43) exhibited a longer survival time than those with pure PESC and without CgA expression. Conclusion:Tissue CgA level was associated with tumor location in PESC. His-tological type and tissue CgA expression were independent important prognostic factors, and lymph node metastasis exerted no influ-ence on survival in PESC.

Three cases of swimming pool granuloma are reported.Case 1:a 40-year-old female presented with a 2-month history of nodules and plaques on the right hand and forearm.She was a tropical fish salesperson but denied trauma history.Skin examination revealed multiple irregularly sized,dark-red nodules and plaques on the joints of right fingers,wrist,and elbow,as well as multiple subcutaneous nodules simulating strings of beads on the right upper limb.Case 2:a 48-year-old female presented with a 2-month history of nodules and plaques on the left hand and forearm.There was a history of trauma due to tropical fish tank and filter cleaning.Physical examination showed multiple deep purple plaques and painless subcutaneous nodules scattered on the left hand,wrist,and upper limb.Case 3:a 39-year-old male presented with a 3-month history of nodules on the fingers of both hands.There was no history of trauma,but he was a tropical aquarist.Skin examination revealed multiple soybean-sized dark-red nodules on the extensor aspect of interphalangeal joints of both hands.Fungal examinations yielded negative results in the 3 cases,while histopathology revealed infectious granuloma with a mixed inflammatory cell infiltrate.All of the cases showed positive results in purified protein derivative (PPD)skin test.Mycobacterium marinum was isolated from the lesional tissue of Case 1 and 2,but not from Case 3.All the patients were diagnosed with swimming pool granuloma,and given anti-atypical mycobacterial therapy including oral rifampin and clarithromycin.The lesions disappeared after 1 to 3 months of treatment,with the treatment course varying from 2 to 5 months.No recurrence was observed during a 3- to 12-month follow-up.

Objective To explore the clinical application value and nursing experience of Urgotul parcel technology used for the treatment of surface abscess incision and drainage of the wound. Methods A total of 150 patients with surface abscess incision and drainage of the wound who received treatment in our hospital wound care room divided into A group, B group and C group (each group had 50 cases). Considering the characteristics of outpatients and the requirements of ethics, A group of patients from January to May of 2017 received the technology of Urgotul parcel alginate dressing with silver, B group of patients from June to December of 2016 received the treatment by the Mesalt and C group of patients from November 2015 to May 2016 used petrolatum gauze. After the infection control, each group received the treatment by Urgotul. Observe the difference with wound healing time, infection control time, the pain score of removing the dressings and filling of dressings, the number and the cost of wound care of patients. Results In A group, the scores of infection control time, wound healing time, the pain score of removing the dressings and filling of dressings, the number and the cost of wound care were (5.1±1.4) days, (22.9± 6.5) days, (1.3 ± 0.9) points, (1.9 ± 1.2) points, (6.6 ± 1.9) times, (603.81 ± 116.82) yuan, B group were (6.7 ±1.4) days, (24.7±7.2) days, (1.8±1.0) points, (4.1±1.4) points, (11.5±3.3) times, (736.94±203.81) yuan, and C group were (11.1 ± 2.1) days, (31.7 ± 3.8) days, (4.62 ± 1.3) points, (2.4 ± 1.1) points, (31.7 ± 3.7) times, (1617.20 ± 303.98) yuan. The difference between the three groups was statistically significant (F=30.48-931.29, all P<0.01). In infection control time, the pain score of removing the dressings, the number and the cost of wound care A group was better than B group and C group (P<0.05). The wound healing time of A group was shorter than C group (P<0.01), but was the same as B group (P>0.05). Filling of dressings the patients in A group and C group felt less pain than B group (P<0.01), and the pain scores in both A group and C group are same (P>0.05). Conclusions Urgotul parcel technology is able to control infection effectively, promote wound healing, Alleviate the pain of changing medicine, reduce the times and costs of wound care, improve patient compliance for patients with surface abscess incision and drainage of the wound. So Urgotul parcel technology has a significant role in these patients.
