Objective To explore nursing of the patients with acute myelogenous leukemia after upper abdominal cluster transplantation.Methods From March 2009 to August 2012,eight cases of upper abdominal organ cluster transplantation were performed in our center,among whom one suffered from acute myelogenous leukemia after operation.We summarized the clinical data and nursing methods of this case.Results The leukocytes,erythrocytes and platetets decreased 22 days after transplantation and the decreasing continued for more than four months.Four bone marrow biopsies were performed.During the first two biopsies,no definite cause of the blood cells decreasing was found,while the outcome of the third time showed that it was type M3 acute myeloid leukemia and genetic testing at the fourth time showed AML1/E-TO was positive.After diagnosis,the patient was shifted to the Department of Hematology and underwent further treatment.Conclusions Close observation,timely diagnosis and treatment,prevention of infection,bleeding and psychological nursing are the keys to promote patients recovery.

Objective To investigate the nutritional risks in hospitalized patients with liver diseases and work out nursing countermeasures.Methods Forty patients with liver cirrhosis, 40 patients with primary liver cancer and another 40 revisiting after liver transplantation involved in the investigation with a self-designed general information questionnaire and the nutritional risk screening 2002. The three groups were compared in terms of nutritional risks.Results Among the total 120 patients,38.3%(46/120)of them took the nutritional risk and even 12.5%(15/120)had the risk of undernourishment.The risk in the patients with liver cirrhosis was higher than that in the other two groups(χ2=9.899 and 11.4299 and P=0.002 and 0.001,respectively).Conclusions The nursing staffs should pay attention to the nutritional status of patients with liver diseases, especially the patients with liver cirrhosis.It is necessary to take effective measures in order to improve the nutritional status of the patients to reduce the nutritional risks.

Objective To investigate the nursing points of pancreatic leakage after upper abdominal multiple organ transplantation. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on the nursing experience of two patients with end-stage liver disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus who were complicated with pancreatic leakage after upper abdominal multiple organ transplantation from March 2009 to July 2015. Results The blood glucose of these patients returned to normal level within 1 week after operation and insulin was discontinued. Pancreatic leakage was occurred in the two patients at 14 and 21 days after operation, respectively. They were both successfully discharged after active treatments and nursing cares including completely drainage, the application of drugs that inhibited the secretion of pancreatic enzymes and digestive tract glands, strengthening infection control, nutritional support and other conservative treatments. Conclusions It is the key to improve the recovery of pancreatic leakage after upper abdominal multiple organ transplantation with careful observation of abdominal signs and abdominal drainage tube, accurate use of somatostatin, nutritional support, maintenance of water and electrolyte balance, and psychological intervention.

Objective To explore the effects of different time spans for off-bed activities on postoperative rehabiliatioin of patients with liver transplantation. Methods The clinical data of 42 patients having undergone allogeneic liver transplantation during Jan. 2014 to Oct. 2015 were assigned as the observation group. Another 44 patitents during the same period , matched to those in the observation group in terms of general data , were assigned as the control group . The clinical data of two groupos were reviewed to make comparisons in terms of the time for anus exhaust , the time spans for gastric tube and urinary catheter indwelling , abdominal cavity effusion and hemorrhage and pulmonary infection 3 days after operation. Result The time for anus exhaust and the time spans for gastric tube and urinary catheter indwelling in the observation group were all significantly shorter than the control gorup (P<0.05), but there were insignifiant differences between the groups in abdominal cavity effusion and hemorrhage and pulmonary infection. Conclusion Off-bed activities 3 days after operation is safe and feasible for the patients having undergone allogeneic liver transplantation. It can promote their process of rehabilitation.

Objective To summarize nursing experience of digestive tract fistula after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Methods From January 2000 to December 2010,1173 patients received liver transplantation,among whom 61 recipients got digestive tract fistula during early stage after operation.The clinical data and major nursing measures of 61 patients were studied retrospectively. Results The incidence rate of digestive tract fistula after OLT was 5.20％.The incidence rate of bile leakage,gastric fistula,duodenal fistula,jejunal fistula,ileal fistula and transverse colon fistula were 3.90％,0.42％,0.08％,0.34％,0.08％ and 0.34％,respectively.The onset time of digestive tract fistula was from 3 to 24 days post transplantation,and atypical symptoms such as fever,abdominal pain,abdominal distention,weakened enterocinesia and even septic shock were presented.And the rising or descending of white blood cells counts,rising of level of transaminase and total bilirubin in laboratory examination were simultaneously presented.Four patients died of bile leakage,and other seven patients died of intestinal fistula throughout conservative or operative treatment.The rest of 50 were discharged healthily. Conclusions The morbidity of digestive tract fistula after OLT is low,but its mortality rate is high.It is necessary to closely observe patients' condition and confirm diagnosis in early stage,in order to promote the healing of digestive tract fistula after OLT.At the same time,psychological,basic and dietary nursing should be given in order to enhance the survival rate and quality of life of patients.

Objective To summarize the perioperative nursing care of a patient with ischemia-free liver transplantation. Methods The nursing measures were developed according to the characteristics of the disease and the individual conditions of the patients: including preoperative psychological care;preoperative preparation; prevention of postoperative infection; meticulous observation of the patient′s conditions, transplanted liver function and postoperative complications; the early guidance of rehabilitation activity, nutritional support treatment and the care of water and electrolyte balance. Results The patient recovered well with careful nursing care and no nursing-related complications occurred, and he was discharged successfully on the 18th day after surgery. Conclusion According to the patient's condition and individual situation, the development of nursing measures can effectively prevent the potential infection, timely discover the changes of the patient′s condition, understand the recovery of the transplanted liver function and observe the related postoperative complications, and help to promote the early recovery of patients.

Objective To investigate the nursing of the adult recipients who accept children organ donations after cardiac death(DCD)complicated with portal venous thrombosis after liver transplantation. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 1 case completed in 2015 related to the adult recipients who accept children organ donations after cardiac death with portal venous thrombosis after liver transplantation in clinical situation,in view of the portal vein thrombosis of portal vein catheter thrombolysis,portal vein carotid stenting, close observation and nursing are used for patients′condition change. Results After positive clinical therapy and careful nursing,portal venous thrombolysis effect is good, and portal venous blood flowing after carotid stenting,clinical symptoms were alleviated. The liver function recovered well after surgery, and the patient discharged successfully,followed by regular visits from the hospital. Conclusions Children organ donations after cardiac death for liver can be successfully applied in the adult recipients,but the understanding of related complications after surgery need to be strengthened.The symptom observation,early detection,active nursing intervention,are conducive to the prognosis of patients.

Male primary adenocarcinoma of urethra is rare clinically. A patient with primary adenocarcinoma of posterior urethra complicated with intestinal metaplasia was admitted and underwent urethral mass resection. The tumor recurred 3 months after surgery and no further treatment was given for personal reasons. The purpose of this report is to improve clinicians' understanding of urethral cancer, so that patients can undergo more accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features and associated influencing factors of cognitive impairment in middle-aged and elderly Chinese adult patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (HD).Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted among HD patients from 11 centers in Beijing city from April 2017 to June 2017. A neuropsychological battery covering domains of attention/processing speed, executive function, memory, language, and visuospatial function was applied in cognitive function assessment. Patients were classified as normal cognitive function group and cognitive impairment group according to the fifth version of the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders criteria (DSM-V). Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to analyze the independent influencing factors of cognitive impairment. Results:A total of 613 HD patients were included in the study, and the prevalence of cognitive impairment was 80.91% (496/613). Attention impairment (81.05%) and memory impairment (63.51%) were the most common impaired domains, and 79.23% was concomitant impairment across two or more cognitive domains among those with cognitive impairment. Compared with the patients in the normal cognitive function group, the patients in the cognitive impairment group had senior age, longer dialysis vintage, higher proportion of diabetes, hypertension, and stroke, higher level of serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), lower education level, and lower urea clearance index (Kt/V) (all P<0.05). Factors were independently associated with cognitive impairment including increasing age ( OR=1.110, 95% CI 1.072-1.150, P<0.001), education time>12 years (with education time<6 years as reference, OR=0.323, 95% CI 0.115-0.909, P=0.032), history of diabetes ( OR=2.151, 95% CI 1.272-3.636, P=0.004), history of stroke ( OR=2.546, 95% CI 1.244-5.210, P=0.011), increased dialysis vintage ( OR=1.016, 95% CI 1.010-1.022, P<0.001), reduced Kt/V( OR=0.008, 95% CI 0.002-0.035, P<0.001), and increased iPTH level ( OR=1.002, 95% CI 1.002-1.003, P=0.012). Conclusions:The prevalence of cognitive impairment in middle-aged and elderly adult Chinese patients undergoing HD is high. Memory and attention are the most commonly impaired domains. Increasing age, low education level, history of diabetes and stroke, increased dialysis vintage, reduced Kt/V and increased serum iPTH are the independent influencing factors associated with cognitive impairment.

Objective:To investigate the association between cognitive impairment and all-cause mortality in middle and elderly adult patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (HD).Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted. Patients from 11 HD centers in Beijing between April and June 2017 were enrolled. Baseline data were collected, and a series of neuropsychological batteries covered 5 domains of cognitive function were applied for the assessment of cognitive function. The patients were then classified as normal and cognitive impairment groups according to the fifth version of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders criteria (DSM-V) and followed-up until June 2018. The clinical characteristics of the two groups of patients were compared. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to compare the difference in the cumulative survival rate between the two groups. Multivariate Cox regression model was used to analyze the independent influencing factors of all-cause mortality, to determine the relationship between cognitive impairment and different cognitive domain impairments and all-cause death.Results:A total of 613 patients were enrolled, of which 496(80.91%) patients had cognitive impairment. Compared with the normal cognitive function group, the patients in the cognitive impairment group tended to be older, longer dialysis vintage, a higher proportion of diabetes, hypertension, and stroke, increased serum iPTH level, and lower education level and urea clearance index (Kt/V) (all P<0.05). After (49.53±8.42) weeks of follow-up, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the cumulative survival rate of cognitive impairment group was significantly lower than that of cognitive normal group (Log-rank χ2=8.610, P=0.003). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that history of diabetes ( HR=2.742, 95% CI 1.598-4.723, P<0.001), coronary heart disease ( HR=1.906, 95% CI 1.169-3.108, P=0.010), dialysis vintage (every increase of 1 month, HR=1.007, 95% CI 1.003-1.011, P=0.001), serum level of albumin (every increase of 1 g/L, HR=0.859, 95% CI 0.809-0.912, P<0.001), cognitive impairment ( HR=2.719, 95% CI 1.088-6.194, P=0.032) were independently associated with all-cause mortality. Multivariate Cox regression analysis on different cognitive domains also indicated that memory impairment ( HR=2.571, 95% CI 1.442-4.584, P<0.001), executive function impairment ( HR=3.311, 95% CI 1.843-5.949, P=0.001) and three, four, five domains combined impairment ( HR=5.746, 95% CI 1.880-17.565, P=0.002; HR=12.420, 95% CI 3.690-41.802, P<0.001; HR=13.478, 95% CI 3.381-53.728, P<0.001) were independently related to all-cause mortality. Conclusions:Cognitive impairment is an independent risk factor of all-cause mortality in middle and elderly adult patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis, and the risk is significantly increased in patients with the impairment of the domains of memory, executive function, or in the combination of three to five cognitive domains.
