Objective To determine the clinical characteristic, main treatment, and prognosis for the sake of more effective treatments for critically ill patients with H1N1 influenza. Methods Eight critically ill patients with H1N1 influenza in intensive care unit were retrospectively studied, including clinical characteristics, indexex of correlation, and prognosis. Results The acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ score was 19.0±7.8. Five patients died, 4 of whom were caused by respiratory failure. The number of platelets in dead patient was lower than that in healing and improved ones(χ2=8.000,P<0.05).All the 4 patients treated with glucocorticoid died, 5 out of the 6 patients received invasive mechanical ventilation rather than noninvasive mechanical ventilation, and 3 of them who complicated barotraumas in the lung died at last. Conclusion Critically ill patients with H1N1 influenza have high mortality. Respiratory failure is the main cause of death. Critically ill patients with H1N1 influenza should not be treated with glucocorticoid. Patients who need mechanical ventilation should be treated with invasive mechanical ventilation with low tidal volume and low positive end-expiratory pressure.

Objective T_O analyze the electrophysiological features of shoulder-hand syndrome(SHS)fol- lowing stroke and investigate the relationships between peripheral nerve damage and the factors causing SHS.Meth- ods Fifty-eight stroke patients were divided into an SHS group(39 patients with shoulder-hand syndrome)and a model group(19 patients without shoulder-hand syndrome).Standard sensory and motor nerve conduction studies were performed with 58 of the patients,including sensory nerve conduction velocity(SCV),amplitude of the sensory nerve action potential(SNAP),distal motor latency(DMI)and the amplitude of the compound muscle action poten- tial(CMAP)of the median nerve.A needle electromyogram(EMG)test was performed on the abductor pollicis of the affected side with both groups.Results The needle EMG showed abnormal insertion potential,fibrillation po- tential and positive sharp waves in all 39 cases of the SHS group,which was significantly higher than in the model group.The amplitude of the sensory nerve action potential(7.77?4.34 mV)and the amplitude of the compound muscle action potential(10.13?3.15 mV)were significantly lower than those of the model group.Abnormal ampli- tude was more severe in sensory nerves than in motor nerves.Conclusion Peripheral nerve damage was found in the shoulder-hand syndrome patients,and this damage was mainly the dystrophy of axonal neuropathy.The damage severity was more in sensory nerves than in motor nerves.The study could offer an useful clue of prevention and treat- ment of shoulder-hand syndrome.

Abstract: Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia and improve the diagnosis and treatment skills of clinicians on this disease. Methods The clinical data of thirty-nine Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia cases detected by metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) from September 2020 to January 2022 at the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Results There was a history of poultry exposure in 89.7%(35 cases) of the patients. The most common clinical manifestations were high fever (92.3%, 36), cough (76.9%,30), muscle soreness (48.7%,19), headache (38.5%,15), etc. Laboratory examinations showed 76.9% of patients had a normal leukocyte count, and 76.9% had decreased lymphocyte count, often accompanied by elevated C-reactive protein (100%), procalcitonin (97.4%), interleukin-6 (95.8%), interleukin-10 (95.8%), alanine aminotransferase (74.4%), and aspartate aminotransferase (84.6%). Univariate analysis indicated that there were statistically significant differences in the levels of aspartate transaminase, blood urea nitrogen, C-reactive protein, and procalcitonin between severe pneumonia patients and non-severe pneumonia patients(P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that an elevated blood urea nitrogen (OR=4.899) had guiding significance for predicting the occurrence of severe pneumonia. Bronchoscopy examination showed no abnormalities in 53.6% of the patients. The imaging manifestations of pulmonary lesions were mainly lobar pneumonia (61.5%) and air bronchograms (94.9%). Therapeutically, it was sensitive to tetracyclines, macrocyclic lactones, and fluoroquinolones. A total of 84.6%(33 cases) of the patients were cured and discharged from the hospital at the end of the treatment. Conclusion Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia is a zoonotic disease that can be detected by mNGS. An elevated blood urea nitrogen level has guiding significance for predicting the occurrence of severe pneumonia. Empirically-selected regimens based on doxycycline are effective for the treatment of Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia.

Objective To explore the effects of community synthetic nursing intervention on negative emotion of puerperium women.Methods Totals of 100 puerperium women were randomly divided into experimental group and control group,50 cases per group.The control group received conventional health education and home visits and experimental group received community synthetic nursing intervention.Score of anxiety scale ( SAS),depression scale (SDS),symptom assessment scale (SCL-90) and family function,before and after intervention,were compared between two groups.Results SAS score and SDS score in experimental group was (36.76 ± 10.62) and (37.46 ± 10.23) lower than (50.83 ± 10.85) and (49.78 ± 10.14) in control group,the difference was statistically significant (t =6.55,6.05;P < 0.01 ).SCL-90 score of experimental group was lower than that of control group.The well family function in experimental group was 45 cases and 36 cases in control group,and the difference was statistically significant ( x2 =5.26,P < 0.05 ).Conclusions Application of community synthetic nursing intervention in puerperal women,can eliminate harmful precipitating factor existing in person,family,society and decrease negative emotion of puerperal women.

Objective To investigate the role of heme oxygenase-1(HO-1)in the protective actions of curcumin against ethanol-induced oxidative damage.Methods Microsomal HO-1 enzyme activities were determined in rat primary hepatocytes pretreated by curcumin.AST,LDH release and hepatic oxidative/antioxidant status were measured with or without ZnPPⅨ/Hemin as a classic HO-1 inhibitor/inducer,respectively.Results Curcumin could induce the HO-1 expression and enzyme activity,which was correlated with antioxidant levels in hepatocytes.HO-1 induction reached a peak under administration of 15 μmol/L curcumin for 1 h.Conclusion HO-1 induction by curcumin is contributed to the heptoprotective effects against ethanol-induced oxidative damage.

Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is a rare benign neoplasm which originates from the smooth muscle cells and is usually confined to the pelvic venous system. Rarely, intracaval and intracardiac extension has been described. Death can occur as a result of intracardiac involvement. We reported 4 cases of IVL with right heart involvement (intracardiac leiomyomatosis, ICL). Three of them suffered recurrent sudden syncope, and the other one was totally asymptomatic. All of them were successfully treated through one-stage operation under extracorporeal circulation.

Objectives To explore the differences in therapeutic efficacy between decitabine combined with low dose HAG(D+ HAG)and CAG in elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).Methods Totally 32 elderly patients with AML in our department from July 2012 to July 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.15 patients were on a therapy of decitabine combined with low dose HAG,and 17 patients with CAG.Efficacy and side effects were compared between the two groups.Results In(D+HAG)versus CAG groups,the complete remission(CR)was 10 cases(66.7%)vs.6 cases (35.3 %),partial remission(PR) was 2 cases (13.3%) vs.1 case(5.9 %),non-remission(NR) was 3 cases(20%)vs.10 cases(58.8%),and the total efficacy rate(CR+PR)was 80%vs.41.2% (P<0.05).The side effects in two groups mainly included bone marrow depression,respiratory tract infection,gastrointestinal reaction,which were all alleviated after symptomatic treatments.The incidence rate of side effects had no statistical difference (P > 0.05).Conclusions The treatment of decitabine combined with low dose of HAG is prior to CAG,and the side effects are all tolerated.So decitabine combined with low dose of HAG can be served as the first-line therapy for elderly AML patients.
