Objective: To explore the relationship between expressions of estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) receptors and syndromes of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in gastric carcinoma and to establish prognostic indicators for gastric carcinoma. Methods: A total of 72 patients with gastric carcinoma were divided into six groups according to TCM syndrome differentiation. Specimens were collected after operation and ER and PR protein expressions were detected by EnVision immunohistochemical method. Results: The common syndromes in female patients with gastric carcinoma were disharmony between liver and stomach, yin impairment due to stomach heat, and insufficiency of both qi and blood; while in males, interior retention of stagnant toxin, interior retention of phlegm and dampness, and deficiency-cold in spleen and stomach were common. Different TCM syndromes were related with gender (P<0.01), pathology (P<0.01), cell differentiation (P<0.05), infiltration depth (P<0.01), lymphaden metastasis (P<0.05), distant metastasis (P<0.05), and TNM stage (P<0.01). Deficiency and excess syndromes were associated with gender (P<0.05), pathology (P<0.05), tumor location (P<0.01) and TNM stage (P<0.05). The deficiency syndromes were common in female patients. The total positive rates of ER and PR expressions were 8.33% and 37.5% respectively. There was a significant difference in PR expression among different TCM syndromes (P<0.01). PR expression was significantly higher in the syndrome of yin deficiency due to stomach heat than in the other syndromes. The PR expressions in deficiency syndromes were significantly higher than those in excess syndromes (P<0.01). No correlation was found between ER expression and different TCM syndromes. Conclusion: There is a correlation between PR expression and different TCM syndromes in gastric carcinoma.

T lymphocyte subset and NK cells in the blood of SCI patients were measured by APAAP(Alkaline Phosphatase Antialkaline Phosphatase) in order to study the change of immune function in SCI patients.The results showed that cell mediated and non specific immune function in SCI patients was decreased. It plays a role in the rehabilitation of SCI patients to increase immune function.

The magnamosis device for stage-one repair of the rectovaginal tistula consists of two arc magnets. Drawing the interrupting thread along the fistula margin via the vaginal side, and pulling the string to arrange the magnets at the fistula base along the long axis of the vagina, we made the magnamosis device automatically clipped to seal the fistula. After removing the threads we kept the device for 2-4 weeks till the natural detachment of it when the compressed tissue in between healed after vascular necrosis. This device utilizing the unique ability of magnamosis to fulfill anastomosis under inflammatory infected state reduces the current high relapse rate and colostomy drawbacks of the conventional rectovaginal neoplasty.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of femoral distraction and homeopathic double reverse traction reduction assisted internal fixation in the treatment of Schatzker type IV-VI tibial plateau fractures.Methods:A total of 51 patients (28 males and 23 females) with Schatzker IV-VI tibial plateau fractures treated with femoral distraction or homeopathic double reverse traction reduction from January 2017 to June 2021 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The average age was 49.6±11.9 years (range, 28-71 years). The time from injury to operation was 4.5±3.0 days (range, 1-15 days). There were 5 cases with combined anterior cruciate ligament injuries and 9 cases with posterior cruciate ligament injuries. Twenty-five cases were treated with femoral distraction reduction (distraction reduction group) and 26 cases with homeopathic double reverse traction reduction (traction reduction group). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, visual analogue scale (VAS) on the first day after operation, hospitalization time, fracture healing time, and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups. Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee function score at 1, 3, 6, 12 months after operation were also compared.Results:All patients were operated successfully. The operation time was 125.9±35.1 min (range, 60-220 min), and the intraoperative blood loss was 138.4±85.4 ml (range, 30-400 ml). 15 patients received autologous iliac bone grafting and 36 patients received allogeneic bone grafting. The VAS score on the first day after operation was 2.4±0.7 (range, 1-4), the hospital stay was 12.6±3.6 days (range, 7-24 days), and the fracture healing time was 14.6±2.2 weeks (range, 12-21 weeks). All patients were followed up for 16.8±2.8 months (range, 13-25 months). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss and hospital stay in the traction reduction group were 106.2±21.7 min, 86.9±42.6 ml and 11.6±3.3 days, respectively, which were less than 146.4±34.9 min, 192.0±86.2 ml and 13.7±3.6 days in the distraction reduction group. The differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The HSS scores of traction reduction group at 1 month and 3 months after operation were 83.8±1.7 and 86.7±2.0, which were higher than those of distraction reduction group (81.0±2.6 and 84.9±2.6), and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in HSS score between the two groups at 6 and 12 months after operation ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The internal fixation treatment of Schatzker type IV-VI tibial plateau fracture assisted with homeopathic double reverse traction reduction can reduce the amount of intraoperative blood loss, operation time and hospital stay, and improve the knee function in the early postoperative period.

Objective To evaluate the mediating effect of lifestyles on the association between family history and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Methods This study was based on the "Early Screening and Comprehensive Intervention of High-risk Populations of Cardiovascular Disease Project". The data were collected from 6 project sites in Hubei Province. Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the impact of family history and lifestyle on CVD, and the relationship between family history and lifestyle. Mediation analysis was used to evaluate the mediating effect of lifestyle on the association between family history and CVD. Results A total of 5 871 subjects were included in the study from 2015 to 2016, of whom 500 (8.52%) developed CVD and 484 had family history of CVD. The risk of developing CVD was significantly increased in participants with family history of disease (OR = 1.458, P = 0.014) and in those with high level of physical activity (OR = 1.081, P = 0.026). The increase of leisure physical activity time showed a protective effect on developing CVD (OR = 0.977, P < 0.001). Participants with family history significantly increased leisure physical activity (OR = 2.085, P < 0.001), and were less likely to choose occupations with high levels of physical activity (OR = 0.524, P < 0.001). The results of mediation analysis showed that leisure physical activity and occupational physical activity mediated the relationship between family history and CVD, and the β value of the mediating effects were -0.004 (P = 0.010) and 0.002 (P = 0.045), respectively. The β value of the direct effect of family history on CVD was 0.033 (P < 0.05). Conclusion Leisure physical activity and occupational physical activity might mediate the relationship between family history and CVD. People with family history would reduce the risk of developing CVD by increasing leisure physical activity time and choosing occupations with low levels of physical activity.

Objective: To find out the present pediatrician allocation and the burden of diagnosis and treatment in Beijing, so as to provide evidence for effective allocation of pediatricians. Methods: Data and indicators were selected from Beijing Health Comprehensive Statistical Information Platform, including Manpower Basic Information Survey of Beijing Health Institutions, Annual Report of Medical Institutions, Beijing Statistical Data on Health Work(Compendium), as well as Beijing Health and Family Planning Statistical Yearbook. The study dynamically analyzed the number of pediatricians, that of pediatricians per 1 000 children, that of outpatients and emergency patients per pediatrician and the number of discharges per pediatrician from 2013 to 2017. Descriptive analysis was carried out on the data. Results: In 2017, the proportion of pediatricians accounted for 2.78% of the total number of doctors in the city, the number of pediatric emergencies accounted for 6.47% of the total outpatients and emergencies in the city, and the number of hospitalizations accounted for 5.70% of the total discharge in the city.From 2013 to 2017, the number of outpatients and emergency patients per pediatrician increased by 40.58%, and the number of discharged patients increased by 36.70%. The proportion of hospitalization at tertiary hospitals increased from 80.2% to 85.1%, and that in primary institutions decreased from 6.3% to 1.7%. Conclusions The study found such setbacks in the allocation of pediatric medical resources in Beijing, as insufficient pediatricians, unreasonable allocation and excessive burden on pediatricians. We should strengthen the planning and construction of pediatric human resources, improve the training mode of pediatricians, improve the salary level of pediatricians, and ease the burden on pediatricians, so as to provide high-quality medical services for children.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
