Objective To observe the treatment effect of Buyang Huanwu Decoction combined with low molecular weight heparin calcium injection in treating deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in lower limb after cesarean section. Methods Seventy-six cases of DVT after cesarean were randomly divided into 2 groups. Thirty-six cases of control group were injected low molecular weight heparin calcium subcutaneously 100 AXaIU/kg twice daily, and forty cases of treatment group were treated with Buyang Huanwu Decoction additionally. After analysing the clinical symptoms and sign before and after treatment, HBV, LBV, PV, FIB, PLT, APTT, TT, PT and indexes of impedance plethysmography, CDFI were observed to evaluate the efficacy. Results After treatment, the total effective rate of treatment group was 97.5%(39/40), and the control group was 77.8%(28/36), the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The differences of hemorheological indexes (HBV, LBV, PV, FIB) and impedance plethysmography indexes between before and after treatment in treatment group were statistically significant (P<0.05), while the differences of blood coagulation indexes (APTT, TT, PT) were not significant (P>0.05). No adverse reaction was found during treatment. Conclusion The treatment of DVT after cesarean section with Buyang Huanwu Decoction combined with low molecular weight heparin calcium injection is safe and effective.

Objective To analyze the characteristics and significance of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression in the pathophysiological processes of tuberculous meningitis in mice.Methods Sixteen mice were intracerebroventricularly injected with H37RV suspension as the model group.Meanwhile,the other 16 mice were injected with 0.9％ sodium chloride solution as the control group.Thirty days later,all mice were decapitated and the brain tissue were respectively used to for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tuberculosis) incubation,pathological changes observation,MMP-9 activity detection by zymography,blood-brain-barrier permeability and moisture content detection,and immunofluorescence stain of MMP-9,glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and integrin αM (OX-42).The t test was used to compare the differences between the two groups.Results Every experimental mouse was injected with (1.271±0.111) × 106 colony-forming units (cfu) M.tuberculosis.Thirty days later,the amount of M.tuberculosis in brain tissue homogenates was (4.900± 1.407) × 104 cfu/mL,and the hematoxylin and eosin staining showed dilatation of subarachnoid and ventricular and infiltration of a large number of inflammatory cells.The cumulative absorbance (A) of MMP-9 bands of brain tissue was 47 821 ± 19 932 in the model group and 10 082 ± 3 544 in the control group.The difference was statistically significant (t =3.728,P=0.010).The evans blue (EB) content of brain tissue was (11.8 ± 3.6) μg/g in model group and (4.7 ±3.4) μg/g in control group.The difference was statistically significant (t=2.887,P=0.028).The moisture of brain tissue was 0.849±0.035 in model group and 0.775±0.037 in control group.The difference was statistically significant (t=2.925,P=0.026).The immunofluorescence staining showed that the infected brain tissue expressed high degrees of MMP-9,GFAP and OX-42.And MMP-9 was overlapped with both GFAP and OX-42 obviously.Conclusions The activity of MMP-9 is significantly enhanced in brain tissue of mice suffering from tuberculous meningitis and participates in blood-brain barrier damage,tissue edema and inflammatory cells exudation.Microglia cells-astrocytes network is involved in the secretion of MMP-9.

Objective: To analyze the teaching environment of primary, middle and high schools in Suzhou, and to explore the relevance of students’ myopia with teaching environment, as well as the key problems in teaching environment. Methods: 1 253 classrooms in 204 schools rom 10 districts and counties in Suzhou were selected by proportionate stratified sampling. The qualified rate of each indices was described and the teaching environment by county, learning stage were compared by using chi-squared test. The Spearman test is used to explore correlations between myopia with monitoring indicators. Results: The qualified rate of the distance from lamp to table was the highest (98.56%), while matching rate of student desk and chair was the lowest(0.96%). Minimum lamp table spacing, blackboard average illumination, reflectance from blackboard wall, classroom per capita area, classroom microclimate differed significantly in urban and rural (P<0.05); daylighting coefficient, reflectance from walls, average illumination of desktop and blackboard, classroom per capita area, and microclimate indicator were statistically different by learning stages(r=0.42,P<0.05). Prevalence of myopia correlated with the index of lighting. Conclusion Qualified desks and matched chairs, as well as the daylighting design in classroom should receive more attention in Suzhou. The findings lend support to identification of key health priorities and formulation of the localized health practice for health administrations.

Objective:To investigate the capability of 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging in monitoring combined immunotherapy response and detecting immune related adverse events (irAEs) in patients with advanced hepatobiliary carcinoma. Methods:From August 2018 to July 2019, 21 patients (14 males, 7 females, age (58.5±10.0) years) with advanced hepatobiliary carcinoma routinely underwent 66 18F-FDG PET/CT examinations in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. SUV max, the occurrence time and symptoms of irAEs were obtained and analyzed. Therapy response (complete metabolic response (CMR), partial metabolic response (PMR), stable metabolic disease (SMD), progressive metabolic disease (PMD)) was evaluated according to PET response criteria in solid tumors (PERCIST). Results:(1) Clinical results. Twenty-two irAEs occurred in 16 patients, while were not found in 5 patients. Six organs were involved, including thyroiditis(8), colitis(5), pneumonitis(4), rash(2), hepatitis(2), myositis and fasciitis(1). The appearance time of each irAEs were (103.0±58.0), (141.6±103.5), 34.0(6.0, 308.8), 9 and 117, 62 and 67, and 87 d after therapy, respectively. PET/CT detected all pneumonitis and myositis and fasciitis, but no rash and hepatitis were found. For colitis and thyroiditis, PET/CT detected 4 and 6 times respectively. (2) PET/CT signs of irAEs. Except thyroiditis, all irAEs lesions exhibited exudative changes in CT and high-avidity in PET. SUV max of the lesions were 9.0(7.9, 17.6) (colitis), 7.1±3.2 (thyroiditis), 5.3 and 8.6 (pneumonitis), 4.1 (myositis and fasciitis), respectively. (3) Therapy assessment. Among 21 patients, there were 7 for PMR, 9 for SMD, 5 for PMD, which were 7, 8, 1 in patients with irAEs and 0, 1, 4 in patients without irAEs. Conclusions:Patients with advanced hepatobiliary carcinoma can benefit from combined immunotherapy. 18F-FDG PET/CT can be used to evaluate the efficacy of immunotherapy by detecting the changes of tumor lesions and the occurrence of irAEs simultaneously. However, it is necessary to use CT to distinguish tumor progression from irAEs.

Objective:To assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of Omalizumab for treating pediatric allergic asthma in real world in China.Methods:The clinical data of children aged 6 to 11 years with allergic asthma who received Omalizumab treatment in 17 hospitals in China between July 6, 2018 and September 30, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Such information as the demographic characteristics, allergic history, family history, total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels, specific IgE levels, skin prick test, exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) levels, eosinophil (EOS) counts, and comorbidities at baseline were collected.Descriptive analysis of the Omalizumab treatment mode was made, and the difference in the first dose, injection frequency and course of treatment between the Omalizumab treatment mode and the mode recommended in the instruction was investigated.Global Evaluation of Treatment Effectiveness (GETE) analysis was made after Omalizumab treatment.The moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) dose, lung functions were compared before and after Omalizumab treatment.Changes in the Childhood Asthma Control Test (C-ACT) and Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) results from baseline to 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 52 weeks after Omalizumab treatment were studied.The commodity improvement was assessed.The adverse event (AE) and serious adverse event (SAE) were analyzed for the evaluation of Omalizumab treatment safety.The difference in the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation and ICS reduction was investigated by using t test.The significance level was set to 0.05.Other parameters were all subject to descriptive analysis.A total of 200 allergic asthma patients were enrolled, including 75.5% ( n=151) males and 24.5% ( n=49) females.The patients aged (8.20±1.81) years. Results:The median total IgE level of the 200 patients was 513.5 (24.4-11 600.0) IU/mL.Their median treatment time with Omalizumab was 112 (1-666) days.Their first dose of Omalizumab was 300 (150-600) mg.Of the 200 cases, 114 cases (57.0%) followed the first Omalizumab dosage recommended in the instruction.After 4-6 months of Omalizumab treatment, 88.5% of the patients enrolled ( n=117) responded to Omalizumab.After 4 weeks of treatment with Omalizumab, asthma was well-controlled, with an increased C-ACT score [from (22.70±3.70) points to (18.90±3.74) points at baseline]. Four-six months after Omalizumab administration, the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation had a reduction of (2.00±5.68) per patient year( t=4.702 5, P<0.001), the median ICS daily dose was lowered [0 (0-240) μg vs. 160 (50-4 000) μg at baseline] ( P<0.001), the PAQLQ score was improved [(154.90±8.57) points vs. (122.80±27.15) points at baseline], and the forced expiratory volume in one second % predicted (FEV 1%pred) was increased [(92.80±10.50)% vs. (89.70±18.17)% at baseline]. In patients with available evaluations for comorbidities, including allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis or eczema, urticaria, allergic conjunctivitis and sinusitis, 92.8%-100.0% showed improved symptoms.A total of 124 AE were reported in 58 (29.0%) of the 200 patients, and the annual incidence was 0(0-15.1) per patient year.In 53 patients who suffered AE, 44 patients (83.0%) and 9 patients (17.0%) reported mild and moderate AE, respectively.No severe AE were observed in patients.The annual incidence of SAE was 0(0-1.9) per patient year.Most common drug-related AE were abdominal pain (2 patients, 1.0%) and fever (2 patients, 1.0%). No patient withdrew Omalizumab due to AE. Conclusions:Omalizumab shows good effectiveness and safety for the treatment of asthma in children.It can reduce the moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, reduce the ICS dose, improve asthma control levels, and improve lung functions and quality of life of patients.
