Objective To investigate the common complications during anesthesia recovery period after deep brain stimulation in patients with Parkinson disease. Methods The complications during anesthesia recovery period after deep brain stimulation in 869 patients with Parkinson disease were retrospectively analyzed. Results The median recovery time during anesthesia recovery period was 15 (0 - 30) min. The complications of 869 patients with Parkinson disease were hypertension in 133 cases (15.3%), arrhythmia in 99 cases (11.4%), agitation in recovery period in 76 cases (8.7%), respiratory obstruction in 24 cases (2.8%), postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in 18 cases (2.1%), hypoxemia in 17 cases (2.0%), pain in 10 cases (1.2%), delayed emergence in 10 cases (1.2%), shivering in 3 cases (0.3%), and hypotension in 1 case (0.1%). The incidence of 1 complication was 26.8%(233/869), the incidence of ≥ 2 complications was 9.9% (86/869), and the total incidence of complications was 36. 7% (319/869). In the 869 patients, the modified Aldrete score ≥ 9 scores when patients were removed away from the anesthesia recovery room was in 849 cases (97.7%), and≤8 scores was in 20 cases (2.3%). Conclusions The common complications during anesthesia recovery period after deep brain stimulation in patients with Parkinson disease are special. To maintain a stable circulation, preventing respiratory complications and aspiration are important to reduce the incidence and improve the prognosis.

AIM: To investigate the changes and effects of orthokeratology on corneal morphology. METHODS: Totally 90 patients were treated with orthokeratology from January 2015 to December 2016. They were divided into observation group (overnight wearing) and control group(daytime wearing),45 cases (90 eyes) in each. The central corneal thickness, corneal curvature, spherical equivalent (SE), uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) of both groups were compared before and after wearing orthokeratology lens for 1wk,1,3,and 6mo. RESULTS: The central corneal thickness of two groups before wearing glasses was significantly higher than that of the cornea after wearing glasses 1wk,1,3 and 6mo(all P<0.05); the central corneal thickness of the observation group at 1, 3 and 6mo after wearing glasses was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0 05). The corneal curvature values of the two groups before wearing glasses were significantly higher than that of the cornea after wearing for 1wk,1,3 and 6mo (all P<0.05). The corneal curvature of observation group at 6mo was significantly lower than that of the control group (40.0士0.5D vs 41.3士0.9D, P<0.05). The staining rate of corneal epithelium was observed at 3mo after wearing glasses. The positive rate of epithelial staining was 49% (44/90) in the observation group and 29% (26/90) in the comparison group;the grade 0,grade 1 accounted for the majority of the two groups. With the orthokeratology lens wearing longer, the SE level of two groups showed a downward trend. The spherical equivalent of observation group at 6mo was significantly lower than that of the control group (-0.42士0.20D vs -0 52士0.19D, P<0.05). The UCVA value of two groups after wearing glasses significantly increased than that before wearing glasses (all P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Wearing orthokeratology lens can reduce myopia degree. Wearing it overnight has the better outcome than wearing in the daytime.

Objective:To investigate the prognosis of severe hyperbilirubinemia in full-term infants who met the exchange transfusion criteria and were treated by blood exchange transfusion and phototherapy.Methods:A total of 168 full-term infants with severe hyperbilirubinemia who met the criteria for exchange transfusion and were hospitalized in the Neonatology Department of seven tertiary hospitals in Hebei Province from June 2017 to December 2018 were retrospectively included. According to the treatment protocol, they were divided into two groups: exchange transfusion group (38 cases) and phototherapy group (130 cases). Two independent sample t-test and Chi-square test were used to compare the clinical manifestations and follow-up results between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for poor prognosis. Results:Neonatal severe hyperbilirubinemia in the exchange transfusion and phototherapy group were both mainly caused by hemolytic disease [42.1%(16/38) and 29.2%(38/130)], sepsis [28.9%(11/38) and 11.5%(15/130)] and early-onset breastfeeding jaundice [15.8%(6/38) and 11.5%(15/130)]. Total serum bilirubin level on admission in the exchange transfusion group was significantly higher than that in the phototherapy group [(531.7±141.3) vs (440.0±67.4) μmol/L, t=3.870, P<0.001]. Moreover, the percentage of patients with mild, moderate and severe acute bilirubin encephalopathy in the exchange transfusion group were higher than those in the phototherapy group [15.8%(6/38) vs 3.8%(5/130), 7.9%(3/38) vs 0.8%(1/130), 13.2%(5/38) vs 0.0%(0/130); χ2=29.119, P<0.001]. Among the 168 patients, 135 were followed up to 18-36 months of age and 12 showed poor prognosis (developmental retardation or hearing impairment) with four in the exchange transfusion group (12.9%, 4/31) and eight in the phototherapy group (7.7%, 8/104). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that for full-term infants with severe hyperbilirubinemia who met the exchange transfusion criteria, phototherapy alone without blood exchange transfusion as well as severe ABE were risk factors for poor prognosis ( OR=14.407, 95% CI: 1.101-88.528, P=0.042; OR=16.561, 95% CI: 4.042-67.850, P<0.001). Conclusions:Full-term infants who have severe hyperbilirubinemia and meet the exchange transfusion criteria should be actively treated with blood exchange transfusion, especially for those with severe ABE, so as to improve the prognosis.

OBJECTIVE:
To study the clinical effect and safety of double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) combined with double pulse therapy with methylprednisolone (MP) and cyclophosphamide (CTX) in the treatment of children with severe Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN).
METHODS:
A total of 60 children with severe HSPN who were admitted to the hospital from January 2014 to March 2018 were enrolled and were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group (n=30 each). In addition to routine treatment, the children in the control group were given MP+CTX pulse therapy. Those in the observation group were given DFPP treatment in addition to the treatment in the control group, with three courses of treatment in total. After three courses of treatment, the two groups were compared in terms of 24-hour urinary protein, urinary microproteins, renal function parameters, adverse reactions, and clinical outcome.
RESULTS:
After three courses of treatment, the observation group had significantly greater reductions in 24-hour urinary protein, urinary albumin, urinary immunoglobulin G, urinary β2-microglobulin, serum creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen than the control group (P<0.05). After the treatment ended, the observation group had a significantly shorter time to achieve remission than the control group (P<0.05). No serious adverse reactions, such as hemorrhagic cystitis, thrombocytopenia, and hemolysis, were observed, and there was no significant difference in the overall incidence rate of adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
Compared with MP+CTX pulse therapy alone in the treatment of severe HSPN in children, DFPP combined with MP+CTX pulse therapy can further alleviate renal injury and improve clinical outcome and does not increase the incidence rate of adverse reactions.

[ Abstract] Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of preoperative three-dimensional radiotherapy (3DRT) with or without concurrent chemotherapy for esophageal carcinoma.Methods We retrospectively analyzed 103 esophageal carcinoma patients who received preoperative 3DRT with or without concurrent chemotherapy from 2004 to 2014 in Cancer Hospital CAMS.The median radiation dose was 40 Gy, and the TP or PF regimen was adopted for concurrent chemotherapy if needed.The overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival ( DFS) were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method, and the survival difference and univariate prognostic analyses were performed by the log-rank test.The Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariate prognostic analysis.Results The number of patients followed at 3-years was 54.The 3-year OS and DFS rates were 61.1% and 54.9%, respectively, for all patients.There were no significant differences between the 3DRT and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) groups as to OS (P=0.876) and DFS (P=0.521).The rates of complete, partial, and minimal pathologic responses of the primary tumor were 48.0%, 40.2%, and 11.8%, respectively.There were significant differences in OS and DFS between the complete, partial, and minimal pathologic response groups (P=0.037 and 0.003). No significant difference in pathologic response rate was found between the 3DRT and CCRT groups (P=0.953).The lymph node metastasis rate was 26.5%, and this rate for the complete, partial, and minimal pathologic response groups was 14%, 30%, and 67%, respectively, with a significant difference between the three groups (P=0.001).The OS and DFS were significantly higher in patients without lymph node metastasis than in those with lymph node metastasis (P=0.034 and 0.020).The surgery-related mortality was 7.8% in all patients.Compared with the 3DRT group, the CCRT group had significantly higher incidence rates of leukopenia (P=0.002), neutropenia (P=0.023), radiation esophagitis (P=0.008), and radiation esophagitis ( P=0.023).Pathologic response of the primary tumor and weight loss before treatment were independent prognostic factors for OS and DFS (P=0.030,0.024 and P=0.003,0.042). Conclusions Preoperative 3DRT alone or with concurrent chemotherapy can result in a relatively high complete pathologic response rate, hence increasing the survival rate.Further randomized clinical trials are needed to confirm whether preoperative CCRT is better than 3DRT in improving survival without increasing the incidence of adverse reactions.

Objective To retrospectively investigate the incidence of complications for patients with Parkinson's disease underwent deep brain stimulation in the anesthesia recovery period so as to provide timely and effective nursing interventions in clinical practice.Methods A total of 869 patients with Parkinson's disease underwent deep brain stimulation enrolled into neurosurgery from March 2009 to June 2016 in Beijing Tian Tan Hospital were recruited and the situation in the anesthesia recovery period were analyzed. Nursing of complications including circulatory and respiratory systems, pain, shiver, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), emergence delirium and delayed recovery were recorded.Results Totally 869 patients were enrolled in this study, 36.7% of which had complications as follows: hypertension (15.3%,n=133), arrhythmia (11.4%,n=99), emergence delirium (8.7%,n=76), respiratory obstruction (2.8%,n=24), PONV (2.1%, n=18), hypoxemia (2.0%,n=17), pain (1.2%,n=10), delayed recovery (1.2%,n=10), shiver (0.3%,n=3) and hypotension (0.1%,n=1). It was found that 97.7% (n=849) of patients were discharged from the postanesthesia care unit with modified Aldrete score ≥9, while 2.3% (n=20) of patients had scores ≤8.Conclusions Patients with Parkinson's disease underwent deep brain stimulation have specific complications. It is important to keep a stable circulation and prevent respiratory complications and aspiration in the anesthesia recovery period. Individual nursing interventions can keep the safety of patients and increase the quality of nursing.

Objective:To explore the effect of family involvement, optimistic attitude, coping effectiveness, uncertainty reduction and symptom management (FOCUS) couple intervention on depression and psychological resilience of young and middle-aged stroke patients and their spouses.Methods:From June 2018 to January 2020, convenience sampling was used to select 76 young and middle-aged stroke patients and their spouses in a Class Ⅲ Grade A hospital in Zhengzhou as the research object. According to the order of hospitalization, patients were randomly divided into control group and experimental group, with 38 cases in each group. Control group implemented routine post-stroke nursing, and experimental group conducted the FOCUS couple intervention on the basis of control group. Depression and psychological resilience of patients and their spouses were evaluated with the Hamilton Depression Scale and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale before and after intervention.Results:Finally, 37 cases in experimental group and 38 cases in control group completed the study. After intervention, the depression scores of patients and their spouses in experimental group were lower than those in control group, and the psychological resilience score and all dimension scores of patients and their spouses in experimental group were higher than those in control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The FOCUS couple intervention can reduce the degree of depression of stroke patients and their spouses, and improve the patients' psychological resilience, which has strong clinical significance.
