Objective To investigate the prevention and treatment of delayed transverse myelitis caused by radiotherapy in patients with thoracic esophageal carcinoma . Methods Radical radiotherapy had been given to five patients (female 3,male 2) with thoracic esophageal carcinoma with delayed transverse myelitis developed 7 to 30 months after radiotherapy without any local recurrence.The study was done in an attempt to describe the clinical symptoms and signs.Analysis of causes was done to seek possible means of treatment and prevention.Results Once delayed transverse myelitis had happened,it was not possible to cure. In this group, four patients died 1-2 years after myelopathy had accurred , and one was alive with functional neurologic loss. Conclusions Delayed transverse myelitis is an uncommon and serious complication induced by irradiation. It is very difficult to manage and indicates a very poor prognosis. We recommend prucise radiation design and prudent performance for prevention.

Objective By exploring the state of residents' living condition, it is helpful to promote the living condition of residents and improve the quality of medical services. Methods A qualitative re-search was conducted on 13 residents in 4 hospitals in Beijing by depth interview during April to May 2016, and the data were collected and analyzed by using Colaizzi seven step method. Results In terms of work, the residents had specific work, and the interpersonal relationship was more harmonious. In learning, residents were able to take the initiative to learn, and hoped to get more help in scientific research. In life, residents faced multiple pressures from the economy and the family. In the subjective cognition, the cogni-tion of resident was rational and objective. Conclusion The residents' work shows a heavy workload, and while working the residents need to take the study and the life pressure into account. And the residents can rationally recognize their role. To improve the living status of the resident physician, we need to integrate multiple forces, to promote the integration of live doctors into the hospital culture, and enhance their sense of existence. We also need to improve the construction of the system and improve the protection of live training physicians to enhance their sense of security. Most important of all, the whole society should pay more attention to the living condition of the residents and enhance their sense of access.

ObjectiveTo investigate the social support status and influencing factors of schizophrenics in remission in Northeast Sichuan， and to provide ideas for improving their social support. MethodsFrom May to September 2020， a total of 533 patients who met the diagnosis criteria of the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） for schizophrenics in remission at the mental health institutions in Guangyuan， Bazhong and Dazhou cities were selected for the survey， and patients were assessed by self-made demographic and clinical data inventory and Social Support Rating Scale （SSRS）. Then the social support status of schizophrenic in remission and influencing factors were analyzed， meantime， the impact of the second round reimbursement policy of medical insurance benefits on their social support was addressed particularly. Results①The SSRS total score， objective support， subjective support， and utilization of support scores of schizophrenics in remission were lower than those of the national norm （t=5.065~30.382， P<0.01）. ②Univariate analysis showed that SSRS score was relatively high among patients with female gender （t=-3.632）， retired status （F=5.951）， married status （F=5.951）， spouse as primary caregiver （F=23.841）， annual household income >5 000 yuan （F=15.892）， patient's economic income （t=4.083）， and outpatient or online follow-up （F=3.954）， with statistically significant differences （P<0.05 or 0.01）. ③The total and dimensional scores of SSRS in patients with access to the second round medical insurance reimbursement were significantly higher than those without （t=10.195~25.103， P<0.01）. ④Multiple linear regression analysis denoted that gender， work status， marital status， primary caregivers， annual family income， economic income， follow-up visits and the second round medical insurance reimbursement were the factors influencing social support status of schizophrenics in remission （β=0.201~2.115， P<0.05 or 0.01）. ConclusionThe social support of schizophrenics in remission in Northeast Sichuan is below the national average， furthermore， their social support levels are affected by the gender， work status， marital status， primary caregivers， annual family income， economic income， follow-up visits and the second round medical insurance reimbursement， and the second round medical insurance reimbursement may ameliorate the social support status of patients.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical feature, the reason of misdiagnosis and mistreatment, influential factor of prognosis in patients with extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma-nasal type. METHOD: A retrospective study was made on the clinical data of 34 patients with extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma-nasal type. Among them, 10 cases were staged I(E) intra-cavity, 15 cases were I(E) ex-cavity, 6 cases were II(E) and 3 cases were IV(E). Among them, 29 cases were in nasal cavity, 5 cases were outside nasal cavity; 14 cases were treated with single chemotherapy or radiation therapy, 20 cases were treated with radiation therapy add chemotherapy. RESULT: The total rate of misdiagnosis and mistreatment were 58.8% (20/34), 52.3% (18/34), respectively. The 5-year survival rate of the I(E) intra-cavity group were 60.0% (6/10), and those of I(E) ex-cavity group were 26.7% (4/15), and those of II(E) group and IV(E) group were 16.7% (1/6), 0% (0/3), respectively There was significant difference between 3 groups by statistical analysis (P < 0.01). The 5-year survival rate of I(E) ex-cavity group treated with single therapy were 0% (0/6), and those of I(E)-cavity group treated with combined therapy were 50% (1/2). CONCLUSION The early clinical manifestation of extranodal NK/T tell lymphoma-nasal type is atypical and which is hard to diagnose and treat. Diagnosis depends on pathologic biopsy and immunohistochemistry, there are many factors that influence the prognosis of this disease, in which the clinical stage is a major factor. It is crucial for diagnosing and treating early.

AIM: To study the time-dependent effects of diabetes mellitus (DM) on the development of cardiac remodeling in untreated streptozotocin (STZ)-induced rats with acute myocardial infarction (MI). METHODS: The left anterior descending coronary arteries were ligated 10 weeks after DM induction without any therapy. Transmission electron microscopy, echocardiography, heart weight to tibial length ratios, histological examination, microarray analysis, and real time-PCR were utilized to monitor the changes up to 56 d. RESULTS: After MI, the diabetic rats experienced lower survival rate compared to non-diabetic animals. The pathophysiologic changes indicated that DM accelerated the cardiac remodeling post-infarction. In primary examination, 164 genes related to cardiac remodeling were found to be candidates for hierarchical analysis, such as leucine-rich PPR-motif containing (interleukin-6 signaling pathway), procollagen type I and III, fibronectin-1, RT1, and TIMP-1, etc. The gene expression profile at 14 d in diabetic rats were comparably similar to both 14 d and 28 d in non-diabetic rats, while such changes at 28 d and 56 d in diabetic rats was also similar to the ones at 56 d in non-diabetic rats. CONCLUSION: The accelerated cardiac remodeling of post-infarction in STZ-induced untreated diabetic rats seems be associated with the different profile of gene expressions.

Objective To investigate the application value of identification of the scalp surface locations of cerebral ischemia lesions before direct revascularization for moyamoya disease and to design surgical approaches according to this by using the fusion of single photon emission computed tomography ( SPECT) cerebral perfusion imaging with CT imaging. Methods The clinical data of 13 adult patients with ischemic-type moyamoya disease underwent superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass surgery were analyzed retrospectively. SPECT cerebral perfusion imaging was fused with CT imaging of the same machine before procedure. The lesions of ischemia were located on the cortical surface. The surgical approaches were designed at the center of the ischemic lesions. The patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months after procedure. The improvement of clinical symptoms and cerebral perfusion of the patients were observed after operation. Results One patient had perioperative cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome,and the others did not have any perioperative complications. At one-month follow-up, the improvement of symptoms in 4 patients were excellent,in 5 were good,in 4 were fair,and none was poor. At 6 to 12 month follow-up,the improvement of symptoms in 9 patients were excellent,in 4 were good,and none was poor. The postoperative visual SPECT cerebral perfusion imaging analysis suggested that the cerebral perfusion was improved significantly as compared with before procedure in all patients. Quantitative analysis:There was significant difference in target ischemic lesions between preoperative Fb and postoperative Fb ([2. 13±1. 06]% vs. [4. 13±2. 09]%;P<0. 05). There was significant difference between preoperative Fb and Fe ([2. 46±1. 97]% vs. [2. 13±1. 06]%;P<0. 05). The postoperative BFCR was [67. 57±3. 78]%( >50%) , which indicated that the efficacy of the procedure was remarkable. The superficial temporal arteries fed to brain of the patients were observed after procedure by using the head CT angiography. The postoperative head MRI reexamination showed no new infarcts occurred at 6 months. Conclusion Combine SPECT cerebral perfusion imaging with CT imaging to design surgical approach for superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass surgery may improve the efficacy and reduce the risks of operation.
