Objective To investigate the pain-relieving effectiveness of persistent epidural anesthesia and its influence on mothers and infants.Methods 40 pregnant women without any obstetric complications and anesthetic contraindications were selected as the observation group,and persistent epidural anesthesia were applied when the cervicis opened to be larger than 3cm.40 cases with similar obstetric conditions were regarded as the control group without using any anesthesia.We compared the degree of labor pain,duration,delivery mode,the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage,intrauterine distress,neonatal asphyxia between the two groups.Results There were significantly difference in the rate of oxytocin utilization,vaginal delivery and the time of stageⅡ labor.There were no obvious difference in the active phase of labor course,the incidence of cesarean birth,intrauterine distress,neonatal asphyxia and postpartum hemorrhage between the two groups.Conclusions The results indicate that epidural anesthesia could affect the length of stageⅡ labor time and have merits of simple,obvious analgetic effect,but inflecencing delivery mode,therefore it to be improve.

Objective To explore the characteristics and data collection sources of featured literature databases in universities/colleges in Yunnan in order to provide evidence for building featured literature databases. Methods Key information about three types of featured literature databases was retrieved online, which included those being constructed jointly by some universities or colleges in Yunnan, owned by universities or colleges in Yunnan, and already in use in China Academic Library and Information System ( CALIS) , respectively. Comparison was performed among these featured literature databases in regard to data characteristics and collection sources. Results Among all the featured databases being constructed, 58.8% were based on literature on local resources, 17.6% on disciplines and specialties, and 11.8% on library literature. In-use featured databases in Yunnan were mainly based on local resources and disciplines, and the data were collected within their own organizations or through multi-sources. The featured databases in CALIS were of local resources, disciplines, and people, while their data were collected mainly within their own organizations, through other organizations and multi-sources. Conclusion Yunnan featured databases are of unique characteristics, but more should be done to define Yunnan style data, while it is necessary to collect data from a wider range of sources.

Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic effects of Epimedium brevicornu Maxim. (EBM, Yin Yang Huo) on breast cancer using network pharmacology and in vitro validation. It also aimed to explore the novel targets and mechanisms of EBM in the treatment of breast cancer to facilitate the discovery of new drugs and their clinical application. Methods: Network pharmacology was used to identify and screen the components and targets of EBM for breast cancer treatment. Molecular docking was further screened the effective components and targets of EBM. Wound-healing assays and flow cytometry analysis were used to detect the ability of two compounds to intervene in the migration and apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 cells, and their mechanism of action was further explored using western blotting experiments. Results: EBM contained 19 active components. Among them were β-anhydroicaritin (Anhy) and isoliquiritigenin (Iso), which were selected for in vitro experiments. Treatment resulted in a dose-dependent suppression of MDA-MB-231 cell viability, with an IC50 of 23.73 μmol/L for Iso and 21.28 μmol/L for Anhy. In the wound healing assay, cells in Anhy and Iso groups exhibited considerable inhibition of migration at 48 h. In flow cytometry analysis, treatment with Iso (20 μmol/L) for 96 h resulted in significantly higher levels of both early and late apoptosis in the Iso group than that in the control group (P = .004 and P = .014, respectively). Additionally, both Iso (20 μmol/L) and Anhy (10 and 20 μmol/L) induced cell necrosis at 96 h. Western blotting revealed that Anhy and Iso increased the expression of Bax and TBK1/NAK. Conclusion These findings suggested that Anhy and Iso, the two components of EBM, inhibit MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation and migration of and induce their apoptosis, providing substantial support for future studies on breast cancer.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the association of the CYP19A1 rs7176005 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) with breast cancer risk and with clinicopathologic features of tumors. Methods: This study was conducted by including 138 patients with breast cancer (cancer group), those who diagnosed as primary breast cancer after operation by pathology. There were 293 cases in the group of benign breast disease which was presented as a solid mass by the color ultrasound and pathologically diagnosed as "fibroadenoma or adenosis" (benign breast disease group), the cases were paired with breast cancer patients by age±5 in the same period, and there were 259 cases in the group of healthy control who received routine physical examination during the same period and were paired with breast cancer patients by age±5 without any detection of breast related diseases (healthy control group) at West China hospital between September 2012 and November 2016. The CYP19A1 rs7176005 SNP was detected by a direct sequencing method. Hardy-Weinberg test was used to analyze the genetic balance of the 3 groups. Chi square test was used to compare the distribution of rs7176005 genotypes between the 3 groups, and the differences of clinicopathological features in breast cancer patients carrying different genotypes. Results: The ages of the breast cancer cases, the benign breast disease group and the healthy control group were (44.69±8.09), (42.33±11.44) and (41.92±9.61) years old, respectively. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test identified that the composition ratios of alleles C and T in breast cancer group, benign breast disease group and healthy group were not statistically significant (χ² values were 0.83, 0.34 and 0.04, respectively, P values were 0.363, 0.561, and 0.852, respectively). All the three groups met the genetic balance, had consistency and could represent the population. Among the 138 cases of breast cancer, the CYP19A1 rs7176005 SNP was significantly associated with the diameter of the tumor (P=0.031). The majority of tumor size was <2 cm in patients who carrying TT and CT genotypes, and the proportion was 75% (12/16) and 58% (40/69), respectively. While those patients with TT genotype were mainly >2 cm and ≤5 cm, and the proportion was 51% (27/53). The distribution of TNM stage among patients with different genotypes was also statistically significant (χ²=11.19, P=0.025). The most common stage was Ⅱ in Patients who carrying CC and CT genotypes, and the proportion was 45.3% (24/53) and 52.2% (36/69), respectively. While those patients with TT genotype was mainly in stage Ⅰ and the proportion was 56.3% (9/16). Conclusion Though the CYP19A1 rs7176005 SNP is not associated with breast cancer development, breast cancer patients with the C allele exhibit a high tumor growth rate and large diameters.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of cutaneous adverse reactions to tyrosine kinase inhibitors.Methods Thirty patients with cutaneous adverse reactions to tyrosine kinase inhibitors were enrolled from the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University between January 2015 and December 2016,and their laboratory test results,histopathological findings and treatment response data were collected and analyzed retrospectively.Results Of the 30 patients,15 presented with acneiform eruptions,10 with eczematoid eruptions,2 with morbilliform rashes,1 with telangiectasia,1 with hand-foot skin reaction,9 with xerosis,7 with nail changes and 4 with hair changes.A patient with grade 4 acneiform eruptions showed a markedly elevated alanine transaminase (ALT) level (315 U/L).Mild ALT abnormalities (48.5-88.1 U/L) were found in 3 patients with grade 3 acneiform eruptions,1 with grade 2 acneiform eruptions,1 with grade 1 acneiform eruptions and 1 with eczematoid eruptions complicated by fever.Two patients with eczematoid eruptions and 1 with morbilliform rashes showed elevated proportions of peripheral blood eosinophils (0.057-0.303).Pathological changes of the acneiform eruptions included hyperkeratosis and dilation of hair follicles and neutrophilic infiltration.Pathological manifestations of eczematoid eruptions included different degrees of spongiosis,thickened spinous layer,irregular elongation of rete ridges and liquefaction degeneration of basal cells in the epidermis,and perivascular infiltration of lymphocytes and eosinophils in the superficial dermis.Patients with grade 1-3 acneiform eruptions received oral minocycline for 6 weeks,skin lesions gradually regressed,but relapse occurred after the withdrawal.After withdrawal of targeted antineoplastic agents and 2-week treatment with systemic glucocorticoids,skin lesions gradually regressed in patients with grade 4 acneiform eruptions,those with eczematoid eruptions complicated by fever,and those with morbilliform rashes.Skin rashes also resolved in patients with mild morbilliform rashes and those with mild eczematoid eruptions after 2 weeks of treatment with antianaphylactic agents and topical glucocorticoids.Oral antibiotics were effective for the treatment of periungual erythematous swelling or granulomas.Conclusion Tyrosine kinase inhibitor-related cutaneous adverse reactions include a constellation of disorders,and hepatic function can be impaired.

Objective To investigate the relation between the characteristics of CD8+T lymphocyte infiltration and the prognosis of triple-negative breast cancer patients. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological data of 126 patients with triple-negative breast cancer undergoing preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Immunohistochemical staining was used to analyze the relation between CD8+T lymphocyte infiltration and clinicopathological characteristics. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curve, and Cox risk ratio regression model was used to analyze the prognostic factors affecting disease-free survival time (DFS). Results High-density CD8+Tils was associated with age < 60 years old, high pathological grade and high clinical stage (P < 0.05). The pCR rate of high-density CD8+Tils group was higher than that of the low-density group (66.7% vs. 19.8%, P=0.000). The median DFS of the high-density group was significantly longer than that of the low-density group (49 vs. 25 months, P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that high pathological grade, tumor diameter > 2 cm, lymph node metastasis, vascular invasion and CD8+Tils low-density infiltration were factors for poor prognosis (P < 0.05), and CD8+Tils was an independent prognostic factor. Conclusion CD8+Tils may be an independent prognostic indicator for triple-negative breast cancer. The patients with high-density infiltration have high postoperative pCR rate, long DFS and better long-term efficacy.

Objective:To investigate the changes in total radioactivity in patient body with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) after 131I treatment and the factors influencing its metabolism. Methods:The clinical data from 218 patients after DTC treatment in the Department of Nuclear Medicine, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from September 2021 to April 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Based on administrated 131I dose, 171 patients were divided into low-dose group (≤ 3.7 GBq) and 47 into high-dose group (>3.7 GBq) . A whole body dynamic radiation monitoring system was used to measure the in vivo residual activity of 131I 24, 48 and 72 h after 131I administration and to explore their influencing factors. Results:24, 48 and 72 h after adimination of 131I, the residual activity of 131I in the low-dose group patients was significantly lower than in the high-dose group patients ( t= -7.46, -3.31, -2.01, P<0.05) . The discharge compliance rate at 24 and 48 h in the low-dose group was significantly higher than that in the high-dose group (21.0% vs. 4.3%, 98.2% vs. 89.4%, χ2 = 7.23, 5.91, P<0.05) , and all patients could meet the discharge criteria at 72 h. Univariate analysis showed that the residual 131I activity at 24 and 48 h was dependent on age, body mass index (BMI) , basal metabolism rate (BMR) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) . As have been shown by multiple linear regression analysis, in the low-dose group, the older age, the higher BMR and the higher TSH level at 24 h tended to the higher 131I residual activity in the body. At 48 h, the higher BMI and the higher TSH level lead to the higher 131I residual activity in patient body. Meanwhile, in the high-dose group, the higher age and BMR at 24 h, tended to the higher in vivo131I residual activity. The influencing factors were analyzed in terms that 131I residual activity reaching 400 MBq in patient body at 24 and 36 h. The result showed that at 24 h the lower TSH level leaded to the lower 131I residual activity in patient body. At 36 h, the younger age, the lower TSH level, and the smaller 131I treatment dose tended to the lower in vivo131I residual activity. Conclusions:Age, BMI, BMR and TSH levels are the influencing factors for the change in total activity in patient body after 131I treatment of DTC. Radiation dose assessment based on the above indicators can provide a reference for adjusting the length of hospitalization time.

Public hospitals play a key role in emergency management of public health emergencies.The emergency man-agement capability of public hospitals directly affects the performance of medical services,public health service functions,and their sustainable development.Based on the division of crisis event lifecycle and emergency management stages,this paper analy-zes the inadequate preparation and early warning mechanisms for public health emergency management in public hospitals,as well as the lack of emergency response network and mechanism supply,and summarizes the ability difficulties of delayed evaluation and recovery,and poor circulation in various links.This article draws inspiration from the concept of comprehensive quality man-agement and builds a theoretical framework based on the PDCA cycle and the applicability of public health emergency manage-ment in public hospitals,based on the idea of"scenario-taskand capability-response methods".Based on this,strategies are proposed to enhance the public health emergency prevention and preparedness capabilities,emergency response and disposal ca-pabilities,and emergency regulation and recovery capabilities of public hospitals.

【Objective】 To investigate the hepatitis E virus(HEV) infection among voluntary blood donors in Liuzhou, Guangxi. 【Methods】 Qualified blood donations in Liuzhou from October to November 2019 were tested for anti-HEV IgG and IgM and.HEV antigen. HEV RNA test was performed on samples positive for HEV antigen and/or anti-HEV IgM. and the test results were analyzed statistically. 【Results】 The seroprevalence rates of HEV antigen and anti-HEV IgG and IgM among 5 751 qualified donations were 0, 26.03% (1497/5 751), and 1.67% (96/5 751), respectively.None of the 91 anti-HEV IgM positive samples was positive for HEV RNA, whereas 60.41% of anti-HEV IgM positive samples were anti-HEV IgG positive. The HEV antibody prevalence varied significantly by gender, age, and nationality (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The prevalence of anti-HEV IgG / IgM among blood donors in Liuzhou was higher than that in other domestic regions. Significant increase in HEV antibody prevalence was observed among ethnic minorities, such as Miao and Dong, and age group of more than 45 years.Follow-up studies with larger sample size could be conducted to estimate potential risks of HEV transmission by blood transfusion, which may provide references for selective screening of HEV infection marker among high-endemic population.

Regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) is a biologic-based treatment modality for immature permanent teeth diagnosed with pulp necrosis. The ultimate objective of REPs is to regenerate the pulp-dentin complex, extend the tooth longevity and restore the normal function. Scientific evidence has demonstrated the efficacy of REPs in promotion of root development through case reports, case series, cohort studies, and randomized controlled studies. However, variations in clinical protocols for REPs exist due to the empirical nature of the original protocols and rapid advancements in the research field of regenerative endodontics. The heterogeneity in protocols may cause confusion among dental practitioners, thus guidelines and considerations of REPs should be explicated. This expert consensus mainly discusses the biological foundation, the available clinical protocols and current status of REPs in treating immature teeth with pulp necrosis, as well as the main complications of this treatment, aiming at refining the clinical management of REPs in accordance with the progress of basic researches and clinical studies, suggesting REPs may become a more consistently evidence-based option in dental treatment.
