Objective:To analyze the early identification, clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of gestational hypertension crisis combined with adrenal disease.Methods:The clinical data of 23 patients of HCP complicated with adrenal disease admitted from Jul. 2009 to Jul. 2019 were retrospectively studied. The clinical characteristics, imaging characteristics, treatment and clinical transfer were studied.Results:The occurrence of all the 23 cases were acute. Among them, 16 cases had eclampsia combined with Cushing’s syndrome, 4 cases were pregnancy combined with primary aldosteronism (PA) and extreme hypokalemia, and 3 cases had eclampsia combined with pheochromocytoma (PHEO) . After admission, the patients were given symptomatic support treatment for sedation, analgesia, blood pressure control, dehydration, cranial pressure reduction, electrolyte balance and spasmolysis, and patients with severe preeclampsia and preeclampsia terminated their pregnancy in time. After treatment, 3 patients gave live birth, 12 received postpartum surgical treatment and 10 received drug treatment. The clinical symptoms improved and imaging examination suggested the lesions in the brain narrowed and disappeared, except one patient had major cerebral hemorrhage and died of multiple organ failure.Conclusions:In case of HCP and severe hypokalemia, relevant examinations should be improved in combination with symptoms to comprehensively diagnose whether it is complicated with adrenal diseases. The treatment methods and process of HCP with adrenal diseases need to be optimized, so as to judge the timing of termination of pregnancy, and minimize the impact on mother and fetus.

Objective:To investigate the prognosis and influencing factors of secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer.Methods:A total of 102 patients with recurrent ovarian cancer admitted to our hospital from Jun. 2012 to Jun. 2015 were selected and grouped according to treatment methods. 31 patients who received paclitaxel/carboplatin (TC) chemotherapy were included in the control group, and 71 patients who received SCS combined with TC chemotherapy were included in the observation group. Clinical efficacy and 5-year survival outcome of the two groups after treatment, were compared and factors affecting the prognosis of the observation group were analyzed.Results:The total effective rate, 1-year survival rate, 3-year survival rate, and 5-year survival rate of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group. The median survival time of the observation group was 52 months and was significantly longer than that of the control group by 17 months ( P<0.05) ; There was no statistical difference between the death group and the survival group in terms of age, pathological type, tissue differentiation, recurrence tumor size, or location of recurrence tumors. The number of patients with FIGO stage IV, more than 3 recurrent tumors, ascites and residual lesion size >1 cm in the death group were significantly larger than those in the survival group. The serum CA125 level of patients in the death group was significantly higher than that in the survival group. Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of recurring tumors>3, with ascites, and residual lesions>1 cm, and high level of CA125 were independent risk factors for death after SCS combined with TC chemotherapy ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:SCS combined with chemotherapy can effectively improve the therapeutic effect, relieve the clinical symptoms, improve the survival rate of patients, and prolong the survival time of patients. The prognosis of SCS combined with chemotherapy is affected by the number of recurrent tumors, the presence or absence of ascites, the size of residual lesions, and CA125 level. The prognosis and survival of patients can be improved by adopting appropriate treatment.

Objective To understand the prevalence,treatment and influence factors of hypertension in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients in Anhui Province.Methods A total of 2724 adult patients on MHD from January 1st 2014 to March 31st 2014 in 26 hospitals of southern,northern and central Anhui Province were investigated.Their demographic characteristics,primary disease,complications,medications,dialysis and laboratory examination were explored.The prevalence treatment rate and control rate of hypertension were analyzed.Associated factors for controlling hypertension [systolic blood pressure (SBP) < 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) < 90 mmHg] were assessed by logistic regression analysis.Results (1) The prevalence of hypertension in the hemodialysis patients was 87.0%.Their treatment rate and control rate were 93.2% and 23.9% respectively.The average of SBP was (145.90±21.18) mmHg,and the DBP on average was (83.60± 12.21) mmHg.The most commonly used anti-hypertensive drug is calcium channel blocker (88.2%).Over one third (45.7%) of patients were treated with two kinds of anti-hypertensive drug,26.2% with 1 kind,21.7% with 3 kinds,and 6.4% with 4 kinds or more.(2) Compared with non-hypertension patients,patients with hypertension have older age,higher body mass index (BMI),phosphorus,SBP and DBP,as well as lower hemoglobin and Kt/V (all P < 0.05).(3) The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that Ca > 2.50 mmol/L (OR=2.084,95%CI 1.008-4.307,P=0.047) positively correlated with controlling hypertension,while smoke (OR=0.594,95%CI 0.356-0.911,P=0.046) and BMI 18.5 ~ 23.9 kg/m2 (OR=0.516,95%CI 0.293-0.907,P=0.022) negatively correlated with it.Conclusions High prevalence yet low control rate of hypertension in MHD patients in Anhui Province were observed.Hypocalcemia may be a protective factor for hypertension control,while smoke and BMI may be risk factors for it.

We conducted a prospective study to assess the non-inferiority of adjuvant chemotherapy alone versus adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) as an alternative strategy for patients with early-stage (FIGO 2009 stage IB-IIA) cervical cancer having risk factors after surgery. The condition was assessed in terms of prognosis, adverse effects, and quality of life. This randomized trial involved nine centers across China. Eligible patients were randomized to receive adjuvant chemotherapy or CCRT after surgery. The primary end-point was progression-free survival (PFS). From December 2012 to December 2014, 337 patients were subjected to randomization. Final analysis included 329 patients, including 165 in the adjuvant chemotherapy group and 164 in the adjuvant CCRT group. The median follow-up was 72.1 months. The three-year PFS rates were both 91.9%, and the five-year OS was 90.6% versus 90.0% in adjuvant chemotherapy and CCRT groups, respectively. No significant differences were observed in the PFS or OS between groups. The adjusted HR for PFS was 0.854 (95% confidence interval 0.415-1.757; P = 0.667) favoring adjuvant chemotherapy, excluding the predefined non-inferiority boundary of 1.9. The chemotherapy group showed a tendency toward good quality of life. In comparison with post-operative adjuvant CCRT, adjuvant chemotherapy treatment showed non-inferior efficacy in patients with early-stage cervical cancer having pathological risk factors. Adjuvant chemotherapy alone is a favorable alternative post-operative treatment.
