OBJECTIVETo study and design a maternal and fetal monitoring system based on the cloud computing and internet of things, which can monitor and take smart care of the mother and fetus in 24 h.
METHODSUsing a new kind of wireless fetal monitoring detector and a mobile phone, thus the doctor can keep touch with hospital through internet. The mobile terminal was developed on the Android system, which accepted the data of fetal heart rate and uterine contraction transmitted from the wireless detector, exchange information with the server and display the monitoring data and the doctor's advice in real-time.
RESULTSThe mobile phone displayed the fetal heart rate line and uterine contraction line in real-time, recorded the fetus' grow process. It implemented the real-time communication between the doctor and the user, through wireless communication technology.
CONCLUSIONSThe system removes the constraint of traditional telephone cable for users, while the users can get remote monitoring from the medical institutions at home or in the nearest community at any time, providing health and safety guarantee for mother and fetus.

2.New advances in the prevention of food allergy by early intake of food in infants
Chinese Journal of Preventive Medicine 2021;55(5):561-565
The incidence of food allergy is gradually increasing worldwide, and food allergy are receiving more and more attention. Food allergies can not only cause eczema in infants and young children, but can also cause severe allergic reactions and even death. However, the current treatment of food allergy is still lack of specific treatment methods, mainly to avoid allergic food. Therefore, how to prevent food allergy has become a topic of increasing concern. In recent years, scholars have carried out high-quality clinical studies to evaluate the effect of early food intake on the prevention of food allergy in infants on the prevention of food allergies. They have achieved exciting results, which have changed the relevant content of infant feeding guidelines. This paper reviewed the latest research on the topic of prevention of food allergy by early intake of common foods such as peanuts, eggs and milk in recent years. This article could bring new ideas and perspectives to the prevention of food allergy.

Objective:To evaluate clinical efficacy of local treatment for prostate cancer patients with bone metastases at the initial diagnosis.Methods:Clinical data of 211 prostate cancer patients with bone metastases at the initial diagnosis admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2014 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into the systemic and combined local treatment groups according to whether they received local treatment or not. Patients in the combined local treatment group were further divided into the prostatectomy and radical radiotherapy groups. According to whether they received radiotherapy, they were divided into the radiotherapy and non-radiotherapy groups. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS 26.0 statistical software. The differences in the survival of patients among different groups were analyzed and compared by Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. The comparison was repeatedly conducted after the propensity score matching. Clinical characteristics and treatment factors of patients were included in Cox's proportional hazard regression model, and their relationship with survival was analyzed.Results:Compared with systemic treatment, local treatment significantly improved the 5-year clinical progression-free survival (CPFS) and 5-year overall survival (OS) ( P=0.049, 0.010). After propensity score matching was performed, patients in the local treatment group outperformed those in the systemic treatment in 5-year biochemical progression-free survival (BPFS) and 5-year OS ( P=0.036, 0.029). There were no statistically significant differences in 5-year BPFS, CPFS and OS between the prostatectomy and radical radiotherapy groups. Radiotherapy improved 5-year BPFS and 5-year OS compared with non-radiotherapy ( P=0.030, 0.020). After propensity score matching was performed, 5-year BPFS and 5-year OS in the radiotherapy group remained significantly higher than those in the non-radiotherapy group ( P=0.046, 0.047). Overall, patients who received radiotherapy were well tolerated and did not experience serious radiation-related adverse events. Radiotherapy improved 5-year OS for patients who were older than 65 years, had bone metastases confined to the pelvis and had a Gleason score of ≤ 8 ( P=0.039, 0.024, 0.036). Conclusions:Local treatment, especially radiotherapy, prolongs BPFS and OS rates in prostate cancer patients with bone metastases at first diagnosis. Radiotherapy appears to be more effective in patients of advanced age, with bone metastases confined to the pelvis and with relatively low Gleason scores.

Objective To effectively use the clinical data generated in daily operation and to realize information networking based on the existing resources of radiotherapy department. To improve quality management efficiency in radiotherapy process. Methods The radiotherapy process and required documents were analyzed. The reporting tool Microsoft Report Builder, which is based on SQL database, was applied to design the patient documents by extracting and analyzing a large number of data generated by Aria, the existing network of our radiotherapy department. PDCA Tools was used to analyze the weak links in the process. Reports with quantitative indices have been designed according to corresponding countermeasures, so as to improve quality control level of the process. Results More than one thousand patients were treated in our department since 2020. All patient documents of radiotherapy can be archived and inquired online after registration only once. 13 daily statistical reports, 5 quarters and 3 annual reports were scheduled according to practical demands. The waiting time before radiotherapy was shortened from 16.2 days to 14.8 days after operating the reporting system 3 months later. The staff could master the treatment progress of patients easily and patients who interrupted the treatment were found in time. Conclusion The reporting tools can realize patient information extraction and networked management effectively in radiotherapy process. Staff efficiency of personnel work and communication was improved. The resource allocation was optimized according to the report data in real time, improving the efficiency and quality of radiotherapy. This method is generally applicable and practical to radiotherapy department.

Objective:To summarize the patient profiles and therapeutic efficacies of ABO-incompatible living-related kidney transplantations at 19 domestic transplant centers and provide rationales for clinical application of ABOi-KT.Methods:Clinical cases of ABO-incompatible/compatible kidney transplantation (ABOi-KT/ABOc-KT) from December 2006 to December 2009 were collected. Then, statistical analyses were conducted from the aspects of tissue matching, perioperative managements, complications and survival rates of renal allograft or recipients.Results:Clinical data of 342 ABOi-KT and 779 ABOc-KT indicated that (1) no inter-group differences existed in age, body mass index (BMI), donor-recipient relationship or waiting time of pre-operative dialysis; (2) ABO blood type: blood type O recipients had the longest waiting list and transplantations from blood type A to blood type O accounted for the largest proportion; (3) HLA matching: no statistical significance existed in mismatch rate or positive rate of PRA I/II between two types of surgery; (4) CD20 should be properly used on the basis of different phrases; (5) hemorrhage was a common complication during an early postoperative period and microthrombosis appeared later; (6) no difference existed in postoperative incidence of complications or survival rate of renal allograft and recipients at 1/3/5/10 years between ABOi-KT and ABOc-KT. The acute rejection rate and serum creatinine levels of ABOi-KT recipients were comparable to those of ABOc-KT recipients within 1 year.Conclusions:ABOi-KT is both safe and effective so that it may be applied at all transplant centers as needed.
