Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of sequential diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) after peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).Methods A case with sequential DLBCL after PTCL was reported,and the characteristics and responses of this case were analyzed.The previous literature was reviewed in order to explain the mechanism and prognosis of such type of disease.Results This patient was diagnosed as PTCL not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) definitely,but after a period of treatment,DLBCL was developed as a second tumor.The characteristics and onset interval were just similar to those described in the literature,in which the mechanisms were mentioned as common effects of tumor cell,microenviroment and therapies.This patient got effects through the initial treatment,but considering the poor outcome by former researchers,the prognosis needed to be closely followed up.Conclusion Sequential development of EBV-unrelated DLBCL after PTCL-NOS is very rare,and the mechanism,therapy and prognosis need further investigation.

Objective To determine the median effective target effect-site concentration (EC50) of sufentanil inhibiting responses to insertion of laryngeal mask airway (LMA) when combined with propofol in the elderly patients.Methods ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 66-75 yr,with body mass index of 19-30 kg/m2,scheduled for elective transurethral resection of prostate under general anesthesia,were included in this study.Anesthesia was induced with propofol given by target-controlled infusion.The initial target effect-site concentration (Ce) of propofol was 1 μg/ml,and the Ce was increased by 0.5 μg/ml every 1 min until it was increased to 2 μg/ml and maintained at this level for 5 min.Sufentanil was simultaneously administered by target-controlled infusion.The target Ce of sufentanil was 0.3 ng/ml in the first patient.The concentration of sufentanil was determined using the modified Dixon's up-and-down method.After the patients lost consciousness,LMA was inserted after the target effect-site and plasma concentrations were balanced.The insertion response was defined as positive when MAP and HR increased by 20％ of the baseline value within 5 min after insertion of LMA.The Ce of sufentanil was increased/decreased in the next patient if the insertion response was positive or negative.The ratio between the two successive concentrations was 1.2.The EC50 and 95 ％ confidence interval of sufentanil blunting responses to insertion of LMA was calculated using Probit analysis.Results When combined with propofol,the EC50 (95％ confidence interval) of sufentanil blunting responses to insertion of LMA was 0.160 (0.130-0.188) ng/ml.Conclusion The EC50 of sufentanil inhibiting responses to insertion of LMA is 0.160 ng/ml when combined with propofol in the elderly patients.

Objective To evaluate the effect of hydrogen?rich saline on nuclear factor erythroid 2?related factor 2 ( Nrf2)∕antioxidant response element ( ARE) pathway in the peripheral nerve in a rat model of diabetic neuropathic pain ( DNP ) . Methods Thirty?six healthy male Sprague?Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, weighing 180-200 g, were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table: control group ( C group) , DNP group and hydrogen?rich saline group ( HRS group) . Diabetes melli?tus was produced by intraperitoneal 1% streptozocin ( STZ) 65 mg∕kg and confirmed by fasting blood glucose concentration>16?67 mmol∕L. Hydrogen?rich saline 5 ml∕kg was injected intraperitoneally once a day for 14 consecutive days starting from 14 days after STZ injection in group HRS, and the equal volume of normal saline was given in C and DNP groups. The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold ( MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency ( TWL) were measured at 2 days before STZ injection ( T0 ) , and 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after STZ injection ( T1?4 ) . After measurement of the pain threshold at T4 , the motor nerve conduction velocity ( MNCV) of the right hindlimb and distal motor latency were measured. The expression of Nrf2 in nucleoprotein and HO?1 and NQO1 in total protein was detected in the sciatic nerve by Western blot. Re?sults Compared with group C, the MWT was significantly decreased, and the TWL was shortened at T1?4 , and the expression of Nrf2 in nucleoprotein and HO?1 and NQO1 in total protein was up?regulated in DNP and HRS groups (P<0?05). Compared with group DNP, the MWT was significantly increased, and the TWL was prolonged at T3 and T4 , and the expression of Nrf2 in nucleoprotein and HO?1 and NQO1 in total protein was up?regulated in group HRS ( P<0?05) . Conclusion The mechanism by which hydrogen?rich saline mitigates DNP is related to activated Nrf2∕ARE pathway in the peripheral nerve of rats.

Objective To investigate the sleep structure of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and the differences among subtypes of ADHD.Methods Ninety children with ADHD were diagnosed in Department of Neurology, the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics between June 2012 and June 2013, including 75 boys and 15 girls,6-14 years old [(9.5 ± 2.4) years old], and among them there were 55 cases of ADHD-combined type, 25 cases of ADHD-inattentive type, and 10 cases of ADHD-hyperactive impulsive type.Thirty healthy children whose age and sex matched with ADHD group,came from Beijing and the surrounding area,were selected as the healthy control group,including 23 boys and 7 girls,6-14 years old [(9.2 ± 2.9) years old].Two groups underwent full overnight sleep assessment.Results The latency of rapid eye movement(REM) in children with ADHD was (146.58 ± 47.28) minutes, and the sleep latency was 19.00 minutes [(8.25-37.50) minutes];while the latency of REM in healthy control group was (87.55-± 13.59) minutes, and the sleep latency was 9.00 minutes [(3.50-13.63)minutes].Compared with healthy control group, children with ADHD demonstrated the increased latency REM and sleep latency, and decreased sleep efficiency,the increasing times of awakening and total duration,and these differences were all statistically significant(all P ＜ 0.05).The percentage of non-rapid eye movement(NREM) phase Ⅱ in ADHD hybrid was lower than the ADHD attention-deficit(t =2.012,P ＜ 0.05).Sleep latency in ADHD attention-deficit was longer than the ADHD hybrid(t =2.964,P ＜ 0.05).No statistical differences were found among the various types in other indicators.The prevalence of periodic limb movements in sleep(PLMS) was 27.78％ (25/90 cases) in ADHD group and the prevalence of PLMS was 3.30％ (1/30 cases) in the healthy control group.The differences in prevalence between 2 groups were statistically significant (x2 =8.053, P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Children with ADHD significantly display more problems with sleep.Sleep latency and NREM Ⅱ are different between ADHD attention-deficit and ADHD hybrid.

Objective To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of TACE with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in treatment of renal cell carcinoma.Methods Data of 23 cases of renal cell carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed.Firstly all patients were treated with renal TACE,and then RFA under the guidance of ultrasound and CT was performed 3 to 4 weeks later.The therapeutic effects were evaluated by enhanced CT or MR scans during the follow-up period.Meanwhile,the changes of Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) scores and renal functions between preoperative and postoperative periods were also evaluated.Results To the end of the follow-up,in all 23 patients 21 cases (21/23,91.30％) survived and 2 cases died (2/23,8.70 ％).KPS scores and serum creatinine levels were observed in all 23 patients at the initial stage and the end of the follow-up period,there were no significant differences (all P＞0.05).At the end of follow-up,16 cases were complete remission,5 were partial remission and 2 were progressive disease.Conclusion TACE combined with RFA is a safe and effective method in treatment of renal cell carcinoma with less trauma,less complication and more effective.

Objective To imitate the pathological process of bronchiolitis obliterans(BO) post lung transplantation and in-vestigate the phenomenon of epithelial-mesenchymal transition ( EMT ) in small airway epithelial cells and its relation to BO . Methods We established the rat model of allogeneic orthotropic left lung transplantation with grafts from F 344 rats transplanted to Lewis rats by the Tri-cuff anastomosis.Then rats were daily injected intraperitoneally with cyclosporine (5 mg· kg-1 · d-1 ) for 10 days, intratracheally applied with lipopolysaccharide(0.5 mg/kg) at the 28th day and killed at the 90th day post-surger-y.We observed the histological structure of the lung grafts by HE and Masson staining , detected E-cadherin and Vimentin ex-pression in lung grafts and normal ones of F344 rats by immunohistochemistry, then analyzed the relation between small airway remodeling and the alterations in EMT markers expression .Enumeration data was analyzed with Fisher exact test and Spearman rank correlation was applied in correlation analysis .Results We found inflammatory cell infiltration , fibroplasia of bronchiole walls and significant lumen stenosis in lung graft mesenchyma.In lung grafts, the positive expression of E-cadherin was 5(total 13), which was significantly lower than that in normal lungs(7/8, P<0.05), and conversely the positive expression of Vim-entin was higher than normal ones(10/13 vs 2/8, P <0.05).The Spearman rank correlation analysis demonstrated that E-cadherin expression bear a negative correlation with Vimentin expression(r=-0.750, P<0.01).Conclusion Our study established a disease model imitating the pathological process of BO .And EMT was observed in small airway epithelial cells of the BO-exhibited lung grafts, indicating that EMT was involved in the process of BO airway remodeling .Thus it may reveal no-vel therapeutic targets for BO post lung transplantation by further investigation into the mechanism and pathological significance of EMT in small airway epithelial cells.

Objective:To compare the clinical effect of 0.02% atropine eye drops once every two days and 0.01% atropine eye drops once every day in myopia control and adverse reactions in children.Methods:A randomized controlled study was performed.The 231 Han nationality myopic children wearing full-corrected single-vision spectacle lenses enrolled from June 2016 to June 2017 in The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and Henan Eye Hospital were divided into two groups by random number table, with 110 children in the 0.02% atropine group and 121 children in the 0.01% atropine group.The subjects were treated with 0.02% atropine eye drops once every two days or 0.01% atropine eye drops once every day to each eye before bedtime for one year.Ninety-two cases and 101 cases were followed up for one year in the 0.02% and 0.01% atropine group, respectively.The right eyes were selected as experimental eyes, and the spherical equivalent refraction (SER), axial length (AL), amplitude of accommodation (AMP), pupil diameter (PD), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and corneal curvature were recorded at baseline and 12 months after treatment.Discomfort symptoms were also observed during the 1-year follow-up.The study protocol was approved by an Ethics Committee of The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (No.2016-35). Written informed consent was obtained from guardians prior to any treatment.Results:After 1 year of treatment, the mean SER change was (-0.46±0.49)D and (-0.48±0.46)D, and the mean AL change was (0.38±0.21)mm and (0.39±0.19)mm, and the mean AMP change was (-1.49±0.29)D and (-1.61±0.26)D, and the mean PD change was (0.72±0.44)mm and (0.70±0.40)mm in the 0.02% atropine group and 0.01% atropine group, respectively.There was no significant difference in the change of SER, AL, AMP, PD between the two groups (all at P>0.05). There were 21 cases (19.1%) in the 0.02% atropine group and 25 cases (20.7%) in the 0.01% atropine group that represented mild photophobia in bright sunlight, which disappeared in 12 and 13 cases during 1-6 months respectively.The photophobia symptoms of the remaining children were alleviated.There existed 5 cases (4.5%) and 6 cases (5.0%) in the two groups that developed mild near blurred vision that lasted no more than 1 month. Conclusions:Compared with 0.01% atropine eye drops once a day, 0.02% atropine once every two days has the same efficacy on controlling myopia progression in children with no more adverse reactions.

Objective: To investigate the associated factors and the independent risk factors for portal vein thrombosis (PVT) in cirrhotic patients and assess the influences of anticoagulation on esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB) in these patients. Methods: From January 2012 to December 2012, 239 cirrhotic patients were diagnosed in our hospital. According to the presence or absence of portal vein thrombosis (PVT), they were divided into thrombus group (33 cases) and control group (206 cases). According to the presence or absence of EGVB in thrombus group, they were divided into bleeding group (10 cases) and non bleeding group (23 cases). According to whether anticoagulant therapy was used in thrombus group, they were divided into anticoagulant group (10 cases) and non anticoagulant group (23 cases). The risk factors of each group and its control group were observed and compared. Results: The thrombus group had a lower level of the albumin (ALB) , higher level of count of platelet (PLT), diameter of main portal vein (MPV), propotion of diabetes prevalence and history of splenectomy compared with the control group (P<0.01). According to unconditional logistic regression analysis, both the PLT and the diameter of MPV were identified as independent risk factors for PVT in cirrhotic patients (P=0.009, 0.001; OR=1.006, 16.858). There were significant differences in the degree of varicose veins and the proportion of sequential endoscopic treatment between the bleeding group and the control group (P<0.05). Moreover, the group treated with anticoagulant drugs and the group without anticoagulation were followed up and observed for 1 year, which showed no significant changes in the bleeding ratio between two groups [40% (4/10) versus 26.1% (6/23), P>0.05]. Conclusions ⑴ PLT, ALB, MPV, and a history of diabetes or splenectomy are risk factors for cirrhosis combined with PVT, and PLT and MPV are independent risk factors. ⑵ The incidence of EGVB increased with the increasing severity of esophagogastric varicose vein. The endoscopic variceal sequential treatment can contribute a significant reduction of EGVB in cirrhosis complicated by PVT. ⑶ Anticoagulant therapy may not raise the incidence of EGVB in cirrhotic patients with PVT.

Objective:To evaluate Masquelet technique plus flap transfer in repair of tibial infected defects complicated with extensive soft tissue defects in the lower leg.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed in the 23 patients who had been treated by Masquelet technique plus flap transfer at Institute of Orthopedics and Trauma, 920 Hospital for tibial infected defects complicated with extensive soft tissue defects in the lower leg from March 2016 to June 2019. They were 15 males and 8 females, aged from 18 to 59 years (average, 38.4 years). The duration of disease ranged from 6 to 312 months (average, 23.6 months). All patients underwent surgery by 2 stages:1) debridement, locking compression plate fixation, formation of induced membrane by antibiotic-loaded bone cement, and repair of soft tissue defects with lower leg flaps; 2) removal of bone cement and fixation 6 to 8 weeks after infection control, fixation of broken ends after rinse, followed by grafting of cancellous bone particles in the induced membrane. The area of wound soft tissue defects after debridement ranged from 4.0 cm × 3.5 cm to 18.0 cm × 6.0 cm, and the length of bone defects from 6 to 12 cm (average, 8.4 cm). Locally grafted were pedicled fasciocutaneous flap in 4 cases, sural nerve nutrition skin flap in 9 cases (including 4 anterograde and 5 retrograde ones), saphenous nerve nutrition vascular flap in 7 cases (including 2 anterograde and 5 retrograde ones), retrograde superficial peroneal nerve nutrient vessel flap in one and free flap in 2 cases. The curative efficacy was evaluated according to the Paley fracture healing scores.Results:All the 23 patients were followed up for 9 to 46 months (average, 15.6 months). Flaps healed by the first stage in 18 cases and after skin grafting in 3 cases; skin flap transfer was conducted again in 2 cases. Infection was controlled in 21 cases but recurred in 2 cases at 9 and 14 months respectively after secondary surgery. The time for bone reunion ranged from 4 to 11 months (average, 6.2 months). According to the Paley criteria for fracture healing, 21 cases were excellent, one was good and one poor.Conclusion:In the treatment of tibial infected defects complicated with extensive soft tissue defects, Masquelet technique plus transfer of a variety of lower leg flaps can result in reliable outcomes because it controls infection, promotes formation of complete induced membrane and accelerates the process of bone reconstruction along with repair of soft tissue defects.
