Objective To evaluate the difference in coronary microcirculation and short term prognosis in patients with different collateral circulation and underwent elective percutaneous coronary intervention ( PCI) with complete occlusion of coronary artery. Methods The study included 42 patients who had been admitted in our hospital for NSTEMI or STEMI between 01/2012 to 12/2015 without receiving revascularization treatment and whose symptoms persisted for over 6 months. According to the results of coronary angiography and the Rentrop grade, the patients were divided into 2 groups: poor collateral circulation formation group (group A, Rentrop=0 -1, n=17) and well established collateral circulation group (group B, Rentrop=2-3, n=25). The basic clinical data and the result of coronary angiography were compared. A pressure-temperature sensor wire was used to measure index of mierocirculatory resistance ( IMR) immediately after PCI. An echocardiograph was used to measure left ventricular end systolic diameter ( LVEDd) and left ventricular ejection fraction ( LVEF) postoperatively and again at 3 months after operation to evaluate the changes in cardiac function. Results The IMR value of group A was significantly higher than group B (P﹤0. 05), the grade of collateral circulation had negative correlation with IMR value (r=-0. 671, P﹤0. 05). The mean changes in LVEDd in 3 months in group B was -0. 28 mm, while in group A was 5. 76 mm (P﹤0. 05). The mean changes in LVEF in 3 mouths in group B was 5. 36% and in group A was -3. 82% (P﹤0. 05). The grading of coronary collateral circulation had negative correlation with the changes of LVEDd in 3 months (r= -0. 669, P﹤0. 05), but had positive correlation with the changes of LVEF (r=0. 657, P ﹤0. 05). The IMR value had positive correlation with the changes of LVEDd in 3 months (r=0. 686, P﹤0. 05), but had negative correlation with the changes of the LVEF (r= -0. 664, P﹤ 0. 05 ) . Conclusions Patients with poor collateral circulation was more prone to coronary microcirculatory injury than patients with good collateral circulation. Patients with good collateral circulation and microcirculation had better prognosis after the revascularization of the infarction-related vessel.

Objective:To evaluate the ultrasound diagnostic value of portal vein complications after liver transplantation by monitoring changes in portal vein hemodynamic parameters using the color Doppler ultrasound technology and to determine its clinical significance.Methods:The clinical data of 99 patients who underwent liver transplantation at the Organ Transplantation Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from July 2015 to December 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 81 males and 18 females, aged (51±9) years old. These patients were divided into the portal vein complication ( n=23) and the non-portal vein complication ( n=76) groups, based on whether portal vein complications had developed within 2 years after surgery. In addition, 30 healthy volunteers at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University, including 16 males and 14 females, aged (40±14) years old were selected to form the control group. The patients’ morphology of liver was studied using color Doppler ultrasound at days 1, 7, 14, 30, 180, 365 and 730 after liver transplantation, and the maximum portal vein blood flow velocity and portal blood flow were recorded. Results:Compared with the control group, the maximum portal venous flow velocity and portal venous blood flow significantly increased on days 1, 7, 14, 30, and 180 after liver transplantation in the non-portal complication group (all P<0.05). With time, these changes showed a decreasing trend. By day 365 after surgery, the differences between the maximum portal venous flow velocity and the portal venous blood flow between the two groups became not significant ( P>0.05). Of the 23 patients in the portal vein complication group, 9 developed portal vein stenosis (PVS) and 14 portal vein embolism. The 9 patients with PVS had a maximum portal flow velocity of 63.8 (46.0, 78.6) cm/s at 1 month after surgery, and this flow velocity was significantly higher than that in the non-portal complication group [35.0(29.6, 41.8) cm/s, Z=-3.35, P<0.001]. The portal blood flow was 993 (887, 1168) ml/min in the 9 patients with portal vein stenosis at 1 month after surgery, and it was significantly higher than those in the non-portal complication group [811(682, 1 018) ml/min, Z=-2.37, P=0.020]. Conclusions:After liver transplantation, both the portal venous blood flow velocity and the blood flow were at high levels in the early postoperative period and they returned to normal levels with time. Ultrasound dynamic monitoring of portal venous blood flow changes was of clinical significance in diagnosing portal vein stenosis and portal vein embolism after liver transplantation.

Objective? To explore the risk factors of incontinence-associated dermatitis(IAD) in intensive care uni(t ICU) patients, so as to provide evidence for early clinical prevention of IAD. Methods? The relevant literature about IAD in ICU patients were retrieved from multiple electronic databases including Cochrane library, PubMed, Ovid Medline, Web of Science, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang Data and VIP from buiding database to November 2018. The Meta-analysis was performed after searching databases, extracting data and assessing quality of included studies using the software of RevMan 5.3. Results? Finally, 14 articles were included with totally 691 case groups, and 1 377 cases in the control group with 2 068 subjects, the incidence of IAD was 20.00%-50.00%. The results of Meta-analysis indicated that feve[r OR=1.79, 95%CI (1.43-2.26), P<0.05], diabetes[OR=2.73, 95%C(I 1.77-4.21), P<0.05], the use of antibiotics[OR=2.45, 95%C(I 1.71-3.53), P< 0.05], level of albumin[OR=-3.81, 95%C(I -4.61- -3.00), P< 0.05], Acute Physiology and Chronic Health EvaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ) score[OR=1.70, 95%C(I 0.06-3.33), P<0.05], fecal incontinence[OR=1.80, 95%C(I 1.07-3.03), P< 0.05], incontinence frequency (> 3 times/day) [OR=1.86, 95%CI(1.56-2.22), P< 0.05]and watery stoo[l OR=2.22, 95%CI(1.81-2.73), P<0.05]significantly associated with the onset of IAD. Through the sensitivity analysis of the combined effect of the fixed effect model and the random effect model, it was found that the combined effect values were close, indicating that the analysis results were robust and credible. Conclusions? According to the present evidence, the risk factors of IAD in ICU patients are fever, diabetes, antibiotics, low albumin level, high APACHE score, fecal incontinence, incontinence frequency (> 3 times/day) and watery stool. Medical staff should pay attention to these risk factors in clinical practice, and actively implement targeted preventive measures to reduce the incidence of IAD in ICU patients and improve the quality of nursing practice.

Dissipative structure refers to a self-organized and orderly structure that exists far from equilibrium.The human body,considered a classical example,generates negative entropy through the exchange of matter,energy,and information with the environment to counteract the increase in entropy.In this paper,we organized theories and related research on dissipative structure and entropy,discussing their significance in regulating various aspects such as the human body,cancer,aging,and more.By selecting the special population of pregnant women,focusing on the information dimension,developing the corresponding information exchange scale(Cronbach's α>0.9),and proposing the information exchange index,we preliminarily explored the influence of the dissipative structure's information dimension on pregnancy health.The results showed a negative correlation between the information exchange index and anxiety scores during pregnancy(r =-0.35,P<0.001),with an OR value of 0.26(95%CI:0.08~0.80),preliminarily confirming the feasibility of conducting empirical research based on dissipative structure theory.If further relevant empirical studies are conducted,it is expected that new disease prevention strategies will be developed and new theories and methods will be provided for the field of public health.

ObjectiveTo compare the effects of different processing methods in ancient and modern times on the chemical components of Lilii Bulbus decoction, and to provide experimental support for the origin processing, decoction piece processing and clinical application of this herb. MethodUltra high performance liquid chromatography tandem quadrupole electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry(UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS) was used for structural identification of the compounds using excimer ions, secondary MS and characteristic fragment ions, and referring to relevant literature and database information. Principal component analysis(PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) were used to screen the main differential components, the differential components were quantitatively studied by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC), in order to compare the types and contents of chemical components in the decoction of different processing products of Lilii Bulbus. ResultA total of 24 chemical components were identified from the decoction of different processed products of Lilii Bulbus, water extract and scalding liquid of fresh Lilii Bulbus, including 17 phenols, 5 saponins and 2 alkaloids. Compared with the fresh Lilii Bulbus decoction, the contents of regaloside A, p-coumaric acid, colchicine and other components in the decoction of dry Lilii Bulbus processed by scalding method decreased, the content of regaloside C in the decoction of dry Lilii Bulbus processed by steaming method decreased, and the contents of regaloside A and regaloside C in the decoction of fresh Lilii Bulbus processed by water immersion also decreased. Compared with the decoction of dry Lilii Bulbus processed by scalding method, the overall content of components in the fresh Lilii Bulbus decoction and the decoction of fresh Lilii Bulbus processed by water immersion was higher, the contents of components in the decoction of dry Lilii Bulbus processed by steaming method was higher, except for the slightly lower content of regaloside C. ConclusionDifferent processing processes have a certain effect on the types and contents of chemical components in Lilii Bulbus decoction. Scalding process is beneficial to the preservation of Lilii Bulbus, but can cause the loss of effective components. Compared with scalding method, steaming method can prevent browning of Lilii Bulbus and reduce the loss of its active ingredients. The processing method of removing foam after overnight immersion proposed by ZHANG Zhongjing may be more conducive to the treatment of Baihe disease, which can provide reference for the clinical rational application and mechanism research of different processed products of Lilii Bulbus.
