Objective To investigate the difference of surgical efficacy between extended lymph node dissection and standard lymph node dissection in laparoscopic radical cystectomy.Methods We retrospectively analyzed 62 bladder cancer cases,icluding 52 males and 10 females patients in our hospital from January 2011 to October 2016,who underwent laparoscopic radical cystectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection.Their mean age was (62.5 ± 9.6) years,ranged from 42 to 83 years.27 cases were underwent extended lymph node dissection and 35 cases were underwent standard lymph node dissection respectively.The basic characters,operative time,intraoperative blood loss,intraoperative and postoperative complications,postoperative eating time,postoperative activity time,postoperative hospital stay,lymph nodes positive rate,lymph node density,and cancer-free survival were evaluated.Results All patients were underwent successful operation.There was no significant difference in operation time [(326.2 ± 77.5) min vs.(345.5 ± 66.8) min,P =0.297],blood loss [(198.2 ± 77.5) ml vs.(213.7 ± 160.0) ml,P =0.590],intraoperative complications (0/27 vs.5/35,F =0.063),postoperative complications (8/27 and 9/35,P =0.732),postoperative eating time[(4.8 ±2.2)d vs.(4.6 ± 1.9)d,P =0.817],postoperative activity time[(1.9 ± 0.8) d vs.(1.9 ± 0.9) d,P =0.838] and postoperative hospital stay[(15.6 ± 7.5) d vs.(16.0 ± 5.9)d,P =0.483].In this study,994 lymph nodes and 100 positive lymph nodes were dissected.There were significant differences in the number of lymph nodes dissected in the two groups (23.2 ±6.6 vs.10.5 ±3.6,P <0.01).40.74% (11/27) of cases in ePLND were lymph node positive and the lymph node density was 11.7% (73/626),which was higher than that of the sPLND group (28.57% vs.7.34%,respectively).In regard to prognosis,the cancer-free survival rate (DFS) of ePLND group was 96%,91%,80% and 71% at 3,6,12 and 24 months follow-up respectively.The other group was 97% 94%,84%,80% correspondingly.And no significant difference was detected (P =0.546).Although there was no significant difference (P > 0.05),DFS of ePLND group tended to be higher than that of sPLND group in lymph node positive subgroups.Conclusions Extended lymph node dissection and standard lymph node dissection have similar surgical safety and prognosis,and appropriate surgical procedures should be selected according to the patient's condition.

Objective To study the application of Internet of Things, wireless health monitor all-in-one machine, health management platform, energy consumption monitoring in employee health management. Methods Enrollment criteria were set based on employees' health examination data, 126 employees were enrolled in this study voluntarily, 97 were male, and 29 were female. The age was from 26 to 59 years, the average age was 43.7 ± 6.1 years. Using motion energy consumption monitor, wireless health monitor all-in-one machine and health management platform, employee's exercise, body weight, body mass index, fat and muscle mass, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), uric acid, fasting blood glucose etc. were monitored. Data were collected for before and after 3 months intensive intervention. Results After 3 month of intensive intervention, body weight ( (74.90 ± 9.95) kg, (71.77 ± 9.57) kg), body mass index ((25.94 ± 2.65) kg/m2, (24.96 ± 2.55) kg/m2), fat mass ((21.30 ± 4.31) kg, (18.89 ± 4.23) kg), muscle mass ((49.78 ± 7.12) kg, (49.07 ± 6.97) kg), systolic pressure ((129.72 ± 11.16) mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (118.32 ± 10.50) mmHg), diastolic blood pressure ((89.10 ± 8.28) mmHg, (76.94 ± 7.57) mmHg), cholesterol ((5.16±0.85) mmol/L, (4.96±0.90) mmol/L), triglyceride ((1.72±0.92) mmol/L, (1.43±0.64) mmol/L), uric acid ((353.00 ± 85.33) μmol/L, (345.00 ± 73.01) μmol/L) were decreased with statistical significance (t=10.92, 11.03, 6.75, 5.56, 4.23, 3.99, 4.26, 3.46, 1.98, P<0.05); and the value of HDL-C ((1.20 ± 0.24) mmol/L, (1.28 ± 0.25) mmol/L) increased significantly (t=-4.62, P<0.05); the value of LDL-C((2.54 ± 0.52) mmol/L, (2.66±0.58) mmol/L) increased and fast blood glucose ((5.05±0.73) mmol/L, (5.02±0.79) mmol/L) decreased, but there was no significant difference(t=-3.03, 0.14 respectively, P>0.05). Conclusion Health Internet of Things can help employees to develop scientific exercise habits , to correct unhealthy diet habits, and improve health. It will provide a new option for enterprise employee health management and can be recommended for health management programs by large enterprises with domestic and abroad projects.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new infectious disease rapidly spreading around the world, raising global public health concerns. Radiological examinations play a crucial role in the early diagnosis and follow-up of COVID-19. Cross infection among patients and radiographers can occur in radiology departments due to the close and frequent contact of radiographers with confirmed or potentially infected patients in a relatively confined room during radiological workflow. This article outlines our experience in the emergency management procedure and infection control of the radiology department during the COVID-19 outbreak.
