Internal mammary nodes are part of the first stop of mammary gland lymphatic drainage.It plays an important role in the process of occurrence and development of breast cancer.Whether irradiation internal mammary nodes or not is still a larger controversy.At present,for the early stage patients,the efficacy of internal mammary lymph node irradiation is not clear.For the patients with positive axillary lymph nodes,inboard or central quadrant lesions,postoperative radiotherapy of internal mammary nodes has a certain value.

Objective To explore the effects of mindfulness training in pain management for patients with lumbar disc herniation.Methods From June to October 2017, a total of 64 patients with lumbar disc herniation were selected by purposive sampling method, and received mindfulness training. The Oswestry Pain & Disability Index (ODI), Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) were applied to investigate patients before and after training.Results After six weeks of training, the score of ODI was (6.63±1.13), which was lower than that before the intervention (14.21±1.06), and the difference was statistically significant (t=8.779,P<0.01). The scores of SAS and SDS decreased after six weeks of training, and the differences were statistically significant (t=11.326, -9.563;P<0.01).Conclusions Mindfulness training can effectively alleviate the pain, anxiety and depression in patients with lumbar disc herniation, so as to improve patients' rehabilitation.

Objective To clarify the status of tobacco exposure and identify risk factors of smoking among smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Shenzhen,in order to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of tuberculosis-tobacco control strategy in Shenzhen.Methods From January to December 2016,a special survey was carried out in 8 districts in Shenzhen.A unified questionnaire was used to make face to face interviews for 958 smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients registered in 2016.Descriptive statistics was conducted to analyze the status of tobacco exposure.Single factor analysis and multiple logistic regression were used to identify the important risk factors of smoking.Results Among smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Shenzhen,the rates of general smoking,current smoking,regular smoking were 40.9%,34.2% and 30%,respectively.All smoking rates were higher among male than female participants (x2=255.226,197.463 and 162.707,respectively,and the P values were all<0.001);164cases of heavy smokers accounted for 50.0% of current smokers.Among 392 smokers,64 had quitted smoking,and the rate of smoking cessation was 16.3%.Among 566 nonsmokers,the rate of passive smoking from cohabiting smokers was 17.8% (101/566),and it was higher in female than male participants (23.1% vs.12.3%,x2=11.219,P=0.001).In single factor analysis,gender,work or living environment,age,education level,marital status,and body mass index were closely related to smoking (x2=255.226,28.375,40.922,29.585,9.117,and 7.052,respectively,and the P values were all<0.05).In multiple logistic regression,the major risk factors for smoking included in the model were gender (x2=120.797,P<0.001),age (x2=5.728,P=0.017),education level (x2=17.159,P<0.001),mode of case-finding (x2=3.670,P=0.055),work or living environment (x2=6.039,P=0.049),and marital status (x2=5.091,P=0.078).Conclusion The smoking status of smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis patients was serious in Shenzhen.Tuberculosis patients were the key smokers.We should provide accurate intervention and health guidance for patients,such as,macro policy guidance,instillation of knowledge,mental health intervention,and smoke-free environment.

[摘 要] 目的:探索淋巴细胞亚群对非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)患者接受程序性死亡受体1(PD-1)单抗联合化疗的疗效预测及预后评估的价值。方法:回顾性分析2022年1月至2023年12月在兰州大学第二医院确诊的接受PD-1单抗联合化疗的50例NSCLC患者的临床资料,收集患者治疗前及治疗2周期后的外周血淋巴细胞亚群(包括总T细胞、CD4+ T细胞、CD8+ T细胞、NK细胞、总B淋巴细胞、CD4+/CD8+ T细胞比值等)的数据。治疗2周期后进行影像学检查评价治疗的疗效,分为疾病控制(DC)组和疾病进展(PD)组。使用卡方检验、秩和检验和Logistic回归分析淋巴细胞亚群表达水平与NSCLC患者近期疗效的关系,采用Kaplan-Meier法分析无进展生存期(PFS)预测疗效的价值。结果:PD-1单抗联合化疗对NSCLC患者的免疫状态产生了显著影响,接受免疫联合化疗后,患者外周血CD4+ T细胞、CD4+/CD8+ T细胞比值均显著升高(均P < 0.01),CD8+ T细胞下降。近期疗效显示,DC组患者血清CD4+ T细胞比例及CD4+/CD8+ T细胞比值均高于PD组(均P < 0.01)。Logistic多因素分析显示,CD4+/CD8+ T细胞比值是PD-1单抗联合化疗疗效的独立影响因素。通过ROC曲线分析,CD4+/CD8+ T细胞比值变化量AUC为0.820 > 0.5,截断值为0.15,CD4+/CD8+ T细胞比值变化量 ≥ 0.15的患者的PFS更长。结论:晚期NSCLC患者外周血中CD4+ T细胞和CD8+ T细胞比例、CD4+/CD8+ T细胞比值可以预测PD-1单抗联合化疗的疗效和预后。

Objective:
To determine the levels of vitamin D in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Shenzhen and identify the influencing factors of vitamin D levels and key groups of vitamin D deficiency, so as to provide a scientific basis for tuberculosis- and nutrition-related health education and promotion in Shenzhen.
Methods:
Patients with smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis who were diagnosed in 2016 were selected as the research subjects. Their relevant information and blood samples were collected, and the sample pool was established according to the inclusion criteria. One hundred and twenty patients were selected based on simple random sampling, including 84 men (70.0%) and 36 women (30.0%). Blood 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations were measured using chemiluminescence technology. Vitamin D statuses in patients were statistically described, and vitamin D levels in patients with different characteristics were compared. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to identify important factors influencing vitamin D levels in patients.
Results:
Mean serum concentration of 25(OH)D in 120 patients was (40.2±16.0) nmol/L. There were 2 cases of vitamin D sufficiency (1.7%), 28 cases of vitamin D insufficiency (23.3%), and 90 cases of vitamin D deficiency (75.0%), of which 23 cases (19.2%) were of severe deficiency. 25(OH)D concentrations in patients with different lifestyles (indoors; indistinguishable indoors or outdoors; outdoors) were significantly different (35.3 nmol/L
