Objective To evaluate the outcomes of acute lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in bedridden patients by vascular ultrasound monitoring and analyze the influencing factors. Methods Bedridden patients with acute lower extremity DVT diagnosed by vascular ultrasound were recruited from March 2013 to August 2017. All patients accepted the lower extremity deep venous ultrasound after 2 weeks, and the outcomes of DVT were observed. The patients were divided into DVT improvement group and non-improvement group. The relationships between the factors including clinical characteristics, past history, laboratory examinations, medications and outcomes of DVT were analyzed. The statistically significant influencing factors were taken into the multi factor Logistic regression analysis. Results There were 134 bedridden patients with lower extremity DVT, including 85 males and 49 females, with an average age of (63.9 ± 18.1) years. DVT was improved in 32.8% (44/134) patients, and was not improved in 67.2% (90/134) patients. Anticoagulation therapy, increased international normalized ratio, and delayed thrombin time were associated with improved DVT. Non traumatic causes of bed rest and dehydration were associated with not improved DVT. Anticoagulation therapy ( P=0.021, OR=2.729, 95% CI 1.162-6.410) and dehydration treatment ( P=0.032, OR=0.240, 95% CI 0.065-0.882) were independent risk factors for improvement of lower extremity DVT. Conclusions Anticoagulation therapy may improve DVT of the lower extremities, and dehydration may aggravate the DVT of the lower extremities. Vascular ultrasound can conveniently and dynamically monitor the changes of the lower limbs DVT in bedridden patients.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the psychological experience of unmarried women after artificial abortion by Meta integration method.Methods:A literature search was conducted from PubMed, Web of Science, EMbase, Medline, CNKI, WanFang, VIP, CBM databases with the combination of subject words and free words. The Chinese and English search terms included “unmarried women” “abortion” “pregnancy termination” “perception” “qualitative research”, etc; the researched time was from the establishment of the database to April 26, 2022. The literature was evaluated according to the quality evaluation standard of JBI Evidence-based Health Care Center, and then the results where integrated.Results:A total of 8 articles were included, including two Chinese articles and the six English articles, all of which were classified as B grade, with 28 complete results extracted, and the similar results were integrated into 8 categories, finally 4 synthesis results were synthesized: (1) lack of relevant knowledge; (2) be overburdened; (3) a desire to be supported and cared; (4) seek relevant knowledge, organization help and active response.Conclusion:The general psychological experience of unmarried women after artificial abortion is poor, lack of relevant knowledge, heavy psychological burden, longing for family and social care and seeking different coping strategies are the main manifestations of the feelings.

Objective To study the prevalence trends and etiology of hand,foot,and mouth disease (HFMD) in hospitalized children.Methods The clinical data of 11 510 cases of children hospitalized with HFMD from 2008 to 2017 in Department of Infection Diseases of Kunming Children's Hospital were collected,and to retrospectively analyze the characteristics,time distribution and pathogen distribution of the cases.Results Of the 11 510 children with HFMD,6 100 were male and 5 410 were female.There were 9 814 cases under 3 years old,1 696 over 3 years old.HFMD occurred throughout the year.The peak months of the disease were April to July,with the time distribution of single peak.There were 4 690 severe cases and 3 452 critical cases,accounting for 70.34%.The main pathogens detected were enteroviruses A71 (EV-A71),coxsackievirus A16 (CV-A16) and other enteroviruses (EV),with 3 803 cases (36.02%),1 122 cases (10.63%) and 3 401 cases (32.21%) respectively.EV-A71 and CV-A16 infections dominated from 2008 to 2013,while EV-A71 and other EV infection dominated from 2014 to 2017.Conclusions EV-A71,CV-A16 and other EV are the main pathogens of HFMD in Kunming.Critical HFMD cases are mainly caused by EV-A71 infection.
