Objective:To explore the effect of comprehensive intraoperative physical intervention to prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of lower extremity in patients with gynecological tumor surgery.Methods:From January 2020 to January 2021, 80 gynecological tumor patients undergoing surgery in Shanxi Provincial People 's Hospital were selected by convenience sampling as the research object. According to the random number table method, the patients were divided into the control group and the intervention group, each with 40 cases. The intervention group used intermittent pneumatic compression device (IPC) combined with graduated compression stockings (GCS) during the operation. In the control group, IPC was used alone for intervention. This study compared the blood flow rate and tube diameter of the lower extremity veins (common femoral vein, deep femoral vein, popliteal vein, and intermuscular vein) , blood coagulation indexes [prothrombin time (PT) , thrombin time (TT) , activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) , fibrinogen (FIB) and D-dimer]before and after operation and the incidence of lower extremity DVT on the third day after operation between the two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between postoperative D-dimer and lower extremity venous blood flow rate. Results:There was no significant difference between the two groups of patients in the preoperative lower extremity venous blood flow velocity and diameter ( P>0.05) . The comparison of postoperative lower extremity venous blood flow rate between the two groups were statistically significant ( t=2.217, 4.863, 2.946, 2.397; P<0.05) . The diameters of common femoral vein, deep femoral vein and intermuscular vein between the two groups were statistically different ( t=2.117, 2.756, 2.274; P<0.05) , and there was no significant difference in the diameter of popliteal vein ( P>0.05) . There was no significant difference in PT, TT, APTT, FIB, D-dimer between the two groups of patients before operation ( P>0.05) . The differences in FIB and D-dimer between the two groups of patients were statistically significant ( t=-2.338, -3.554; P<0.05) . The incidence of lower extremity DVT in the intervention group was 2.5% (1/40) on the third day after operation, and the incidence of lower extremity DVT in the control group was 20.0% (8/40) , and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=6.135, P<0.05) . Pearson correlation analysis showed that postoperative D-dimer and lower extremity venous blood flow rate were negatively correlated ( r=-0.484, -0.442, -0.358, -0.308; P<0.01) . Conclusions:The application of comprehensive intraoperative physical intervention of IPC combined with GCS can reduce the incidence of DVT in the lower extremities of patients with gynecological tumors, and it is worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To explore the effect of intraoperative physical prevention on the occurrence of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients with gynecological tumors after operation.Methods:From January to December 2020, convenience sampling was used to select 79 gynecological tumor patients with operations in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital as the research object. According to the random number table method, the patients were divided into the observation group ( n=40) and the control group ( n=39) . The patients in the control group received graduated compression stocking (GCS) during the operation, and the patients in the observation group were treated with the GCS combined with the plantar arteriovenous pump. The blood coagulation indexes [D-dimer, prothrombin time (PT) , activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ], lower extremity (common femoral vein, deep femoral vein) venous diameter and blood flow rate before operation, immediately after operation, and on the third day after operation, and the incidence of DVT on the first day, third day, 1 month and 3 months after the operation were compared between the two groups. Results:Repeated measures analysis of variance showed that there were interaction, between-group and time effects in the comparison of D-dimer, PT, and APTT before operation, immediately after operation, and on the third day after operation between the two groups. There were interactions, between-group, and time effects in the comparison of the diameter of the common femoral vein, the diameter of the deep femoral vein, and the venous blood flow rate. The differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05) . On the first day, third day, 1 month and 3 months after operation, the incidences of DVT in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Intraoperative GCS combined with plantar arteriovenous pump can improve postoperative coagulation function in patients with gynecological tumors, accelerate venous blood flow rate of lower extremities, and reduce the incidence of DVT in patients.

Professor Zhang Zhiyuan, a master of Chinese medicine, made good use of Baizhu (Atractylis macrocephala (Koidz.)). Except for defecation in clinical practice, he usually prescribed processed Baizhu after stir-frying with soil. Baizhu is good at excreting water and removing dampness, so applied it in the formula series with Fuling (Poria cocos) and Guizhi (Cassia Twig) or self-made decoction for diarrhea. High-dose Baizhu could be used for edema by treating obstructive syndrome with tonics, so Baizhu were added in self-made Shugan Qushui Decoction (疏肝祛水汤) or modified Lizhong Decoction (理中汤) for liver cirrhosis ascites. It was emphasized that Baizhu could eliminate phlegm, so added it in modified Zexei Decoction (泽泻汤) for excess syndrome of vertigo. It was also acknow-ledged that Baizhu could strengthen the spleen and stomach, and was suitable for deficiency or excess syndrome of abdominal distension, so applied it in Burun Decoction (补润汤) for abdominal distension with deficiency-excess in complexity, and applied it in Zhizhu Decoction (枳术汤) or self-made Tiaozhong Decoction (调中汤) for deficient abdominal distention.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects and mechanism of atractylodin on inflammatory injury of periodontal tissue and alveolar bone loss in periodontitis rats. METHODS A total of 144 SD rats were divided into control group (intragastric and intraperitoneal injection of normal saline), model group (intragastric and intraperitoneal injection of normal saline), atractylodin low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose groups (intraperitoneal injection of 6.665, 13.33, and 26.66 mg/kg atractylodin), metronidazole group (positive control group, intragastric injection of 0.05 g/kg metronidazole, intraperitoneal injection of normal saline), AMD3100 [stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)/CXC chemokine receptor-4 (CXCR4) pathway inhibitor] group (intragastric injection of 1 mg/kg AMD3100, intraperitoneal injection of normal saline), atractylodin high-dose+AMD 3100 group (intraperitoneal injection of 26.66 mg/kg atractylodin, intragastric injection of 1 mg/kg AMD3100), with 18 rats in each group. Except for the control group, all other groups of rats were inoculated with Porphyromonas gingivalis to construct a periodontitis model. After successful modeling, they were given relevant medicine or normal saline, once a day, for 4 consecutive weeks. The gingival index of rats was detected; the levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) in rat serum were also determined; alveolar bone resorption, periodontal histopathologic changes and the number of osteoclasts were detected by methylene blue staining, HE staining and TRAP staining, respectively. The expressions of osteoprotegerin (OPG), receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL), SDF-1 and CXCR4 proteins were determined. RESULTS Compared with the control group, serious pathological injury of periodontal tissue was found in the model group, the gingival index, the levels of IL-6 and TNF- α, alveolar bone absorption value, the number of osteoclasts, and the expression of RANKL protein were all increased significantly (P<0.05), while the expressions of OPG, SDF-1 and CXCR4 proteins were decreased significantly (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, pathological injury of periodontal tissue in rats was reduced; the gingival index, the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α, alveolar bone resorption value, osteoclast number and RANKL protein expression were decreased significantly, while protein expressions of OPG, SDF-1 and CXCR4 were increased significantly in atractylodin low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose groups and metronidazole group (P<0.05). The change trend of corresponding indexes in the AMD3100 group was opposite to the above (P<0.05). AMD3100 attenuated the inhibitory effect of high-dose atractylodin on inflammatory response and alveolar bone loss in rats with periodontitis (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Atractylodin may improve the inflammatory response and alveolar bone loss in periodontitis rats by activating the SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling pathway.
