Objective To compare two surgical methods of ectopic pregnancy between laparoscopic and laparotomy and evaluate therapeutic effect. Methods The clinical data of ectopic pregnancy patients who underwent from laparoscopic(65 cases) and open surgery(54 cases) were retrospectively analyzed,the data such as total blood loss,postoperative demulcent effect, the anus exhausting time, postoperative complications, duration of hospitalization, fever,and duration of antibiotics, abdominal scar, indwelling catheter time were analyzed between these groups. Results There were significant differences on total blood loss[(37.5 ± 15.6)ml vs (21.3 ± 9.5)ml], postoperative demulcent effect(82% vs 26%), the anus exhausting time [(32. 6 ± 7.8) h vs (19.4 ± 4. 2) h], postoperative complications (46% vs 17%) ,duration of hospitalization[(7.6 ± 1.9) d vs(3.3 ± 1.1) d] ,fever(74% vs 24%), and duration of antibiotics [(6.3 ± 2.2) h vs (3.6 ± 1.2) h], abdominal scar (with vs without), indwelling catheter time [(29.5 ±4. 6) h vs(7.4 ± 2.3) h] between laparotomy and laparoscopic groups (P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusion Laparoscopic surgical treatment of ectopic pregnancy was superior to the traditional open group.

Objective To investigate the analgesic effect of auto-moxibostion on lumbar vertebral osteoarthritis? Methods Sixty patients with lumbar vertebral osteoarthritis were randomized equally into the control group and observation group by a random digits table: the former group received routine nursing care and the latter was intervened with auto-moxibustion together with routine nursing care? The curative effects were appraised by short-form of McGill pain questionnaire? Result The curative effect in the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group(P < 0?05)? Conclusions The auto-moxibustion is effective for the analgesia of lumbar vertebral osteoarthritis? The right management of medication and detained medicine is helpful for the increased effect of auto-moxibustion?

Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFRB) rearrangements play an important role in the pathogenesis of eosinophilia-associated myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms. Up to now, more than 70 PDGFRB fusions have been identified. Here, a novel PDGFRB fusion gene CSNK2A1-PDGFRB has been identified in myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) with eosinophilia by RNA-sequencing, which has been verified by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Sanger sequencing. The new PDGFRB fusion partner gene CSNK2A1 encoded one of the two catalytic subunit of casein kinase II (CK2). To our knowledge, this is the first report on the involvement of CSNK2A1 in fusion genes, especially fusion with another kinase PDGFRB in MPN. In addition, the CSNK2A1-PDGFRB fusion retained the entire kinase domain of PDGFRB and response to imatinib at low concentration. The patient with CSNK2A1-PDGFRB was sensitive to imatinib treatment and acquired sustained complete remission.

Objective:To investigate the serotypes and antimicrobial resistance of seven invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella (iNTS) isolates. Methods:For 7 iNTS strains collected, serotype identification, antimicrobial susceptibility testing and whole genome sequencing were performed. We identified, annotated and analyzed the serotypes, MLST types, and antimicrobial resistance genes.Results:Among the 7 tested iNTS isolates, we found one Salmonella Typhimurium strain and two Salmonella Ⅰ 4, [5], 12: i:- strains whose MLST types were ST34, two Salmonella Enteritidis strains, one Salmonella Corvallis strain and one strain of unknown serotype with the antigenic formulae of Ⅰ 4, [5], 12: d:- (ST279 type). Six of seven strains were monophasic and the deletion or pseudogenization of Salmonella Flagellum gene might contribute to the enhancement of Salmonella invasiveness. None was found to be resistant to tigarcycline, aztreonam, amikacin, cephalosporins and carbapenem and one Salmonella Typhimurium strain was found to be co-resistant to eight classes of antimicrobials at the same time. Resistance genes were generally in accord with relative resistant phenotypes. Conclusion:The iNTS strains could show high level multi-drug resistance, indicating that close attention should be paid to the resistance of iNTS though the overall resistance might be relatively not high.

Objective:To investigate the application value of dual-source CT urography with stellar photon detectors in the diagnosis of gout.Methods:Forty patients who were diagnosed with gout according to American College of Rheumatology Guideline for the Diagnosis of Gout and received treatment between April 2018 and May 2020 were included in the observation group. Forty patients who were concurrently diagnosed with osteoarthritis and received treatment in the same hospital were included in the control group. All patients underwent dual-source CT urography with stellar photon detectors and corresponding biochemical index detection. Blood levels of uric acid, urea nitrogen, creatinine, total cholesterol, and triglyceride were compared between the observation and control groups.Results:Blood levels of uric acid, creatinine, urea nitrogen, total cholesterol, and triglyceride in the observation group were (519.38 ± 97.91) μmol/L, (110.21 ± 18.29) μmol/L, (12.21 ± 3.29) mmol/L, (6.49 ± 1.22) mmol/L, (3.45 ± 1.89) mmol/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the control group (310.45 ± 61.40) μmol/L, (86.22 ± 13.12) μmol/L, (6.82 ± 1.75) mmol/L, (4.75 ± 0.56) mmol/L, (1.98 ± 0.85) mmol/L, respectively ( t = 11.43, 6.741, 9.148, 8.198, 4.486, all P < 0.05). Dual-source CT urography with stellar photon detectors revealed that urate crystals (color coded as green) were detected in 3 and 36 patients from the control and observation groups, respectively, with the detection rate of 7.5% (3/40) and 90% (36/40), respectively. There was significant difference in urate crystal detection rate between the observation and control groups ( χ2 = 24.993, P < 0.05). In the control group, no obvious destruction of bone, tendon and ligament were observed, urate deposition, total volume of (1.023 ± 0.83) cm 3, was found in feet and knee joint of a small number of patients. In the observation group, there were 30 patients with uric acid crystals and bone destruction in the metatarsophalangeal joint ( n = 6), distal tibia ( n = 7), distal fibula ( n = 3), proximal talus ( n = 4), proximal calcaneus ( n = 6), and wrist joint ( n = 4). There were 20 patients with ligament or tendon damage, involving deltoid ligament ( n = 2), Achilles tendon ( n = 10), and extensor and flexor tendon ( n = 53). Total volume of uric acid crystals was (32.22 ± 5.83) cm 3. The volume of uric acid crystals deposited in the hand, elbow, feet and knee was (8.00 ± 4.92) cm 3, (5.32 ± 2.75) cm 3, (36.00 ± 15.54) cm 3, and (13.31 ± 9.14) cm 3, respectively. Conclusion:Dual-source CT urography with stellar photon detectors has a high sensitivity in the diagnosis of gout, can accurately locate and quantify uric acid crystals and is of high application value in the diagnosis of gout.
