1.Progress in the diagnosis and treatment of non-responding community acquired pneumonia
Tianjin Medical Journal 2016;44(1):5-8
Non-responding pneumonia describes the situation, in which an inadequate clinical response is present de-spite antibiotic treatment. The incidence of treatment failure in community acquired pneumonia (CAP) can range up to 31%. At present, the diagnosis and treatment of this kind of disease remain a great challenge to CAP. For this reason, several stud-ies have attempted to establish risk factors and new strategies for the treatment of non-responding pneumonia. This article re-views the progress of the pathogeny and treatment of non-responding CAP.

The incidence of locally recurrent rectal cancer is about 10%. Most patients have serious symptoms after tumor recurrence, which seriously affects the quality of life and prognosis of patients. Although it is more difficult to perform reoperation, it is still the main method to treat local recurrence of rectal cancer. At present, the main methods of reoperation include transabdominal anterior resection, combined pelvic organ resection, combined pelvic organ resection, and sacral resection. Open surgery is the main method. In recent years, with the extensive development of laparoscopic technology, laparoscopic techniques have been tried at home and abroad to perform reoperations for locally recurrent rectal cancer, showing good short-term results. The authors systematically introduce the application of laparoscopic technology in the reoperation of locally recurrent rectal cancer based on relevant research advances at home and abroad, in order to explore its clinical application prospects and promotion value.

“Acupoint characteristics” has a significant influence on the study of acupoints. The description pattern of “property of Chinese medicine - function - indication” of analogy TCM put forward the description pattern of “acupoint characteristics-function-indication axis”. The study was carried out from the following three aspects:sorting, forming and improving the theories on acupoint characteristics; determining the functions according to present theories and indications of acupoints, methodizing the indications of acupoints; through functions, gradually simplifying and supplementing. Therefore, the above would make great sense to further research and systematic study and memorizing of acupoints and promoting clinical thinking about acupuncture, with a purpose to better guide clinical application.

Objective To evaluate the early and midterm effect by retrospective analysis of the cone reconstruction in Ebstein′s anomaly. Methods From January 2012 through June 2016,16 patients with Ebstein′s anomaly underwent the cone reconstruction in our hospital. There were 7 males and 9 females at mean age(28.21 ± 11.88)years,including 12 patients of Carpentier B type,4 patients of Carpentier C type. There were 9 patients in New York Heart Association(NYHA)functional class Ⅲ,5 patients in NYHA functional class Ⅳand the others in NYHA functional class Ⅱ. All patients had Tricuspid insufficiency ,including 2 patients with Grade 2 ,10 patients with Grade 3 and 4 patients with Grade 4. All patients were followed up over a period of 6 to 51 months (mean:24.36 ± 10.71). By comparing the details of pre-operation with post-operation and post-operation with current stage,we analyze the outcomes of early and midterm effects. Results All patients are well survived. There were one patient recovering from the low cardiac output syndrome with adding the strength of the positive inotropic drug in the first day after operation ,and one patient recovering from bigeminy of ventricular prematurebeat with the aid of amiodarone and lidocaine the third day after operation. The remaining patients recovered smoothly. Early post-operative echocardiograms showed good right ventricular morphology and reduction in tricuspid regurgitation grade from(3.13 ± 0.62)to(1.75 ± 0.45)(P<0.001)with the functional class improved from(3.19 ± 0.66)to(2.00 ± 0.52)(P<0.001). After mean follow-up of(24.36 ± 10.71)months,the situation is improving furtherly with the tricuspid regurgitation grade reducing to(1.31 ± 0.48)(P=0.016)and the functional class rising to(1.50 ± 0.52) (P = 0.031). Conclusions This surgical technique for Ebstein′s anomaly can improve the function of tricuspid valve and the right ventricular morphology. It showed a satisfactory performance in the early and midterm results by enhancing the Cardiac function and life quality. But indications should be strictly grasped and more experiences need to be accumulated. Long-term effect need to be furtherly explored.
