Objective: To investigate the effects of arginine enriched TPN on proliferation and apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells. Methods:24 young rabbits were divided into 3 groups: control group,standard TPN group and arginine-enriched TPN group.Rabbits in the control group received free chow and water ad libitum after ligation of the right jugular vein;animals in the other two groups received standard TPN(175kcal/kg?d,200 ml/kg?d) or arginine enriched(2% of total energy) TPN.After 7 days of TPN administration,plasma and ileum were collected for the following tests: ①intestinal morphological changes;②incidence of bacterial translocation;③D-lactic acid level in plasma;④expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) of epithelial cells;⑤apoptosis of epithelial cells. Results:①The mucosal thickness,villus height and villus surface area in argnine enriched TPN group were significantly higher than those in standard TPN group(P0.05).②The incidence of bacterial translocation in arginine enriched TPN group was significantly lower than that in standard TPN group(P0.05).③The plasma D-lactic acid level in arginine enriched TPN group was significantly lower than that in standard TPN group(P0.05). Conclusion:Arginine plays an important role in maintaining the integrity of gut barrier,reducing the apoptosis of epithelial cells and improving the intestinal cells proliferation.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and survival analysis of T-cell lymphoma with hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS).Methods The clinical features,laboratory tests and survival of 30 patients of T-cell lymphoma with HPS were analyzed comparing with 50 random patients of T-cell lymphoma without HPS (control group),and the data were obtained from department of hematology,Ruijin Hospital,Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from January 2006 to December 2011.Results 30 cases of T-cell lymphoma with HPS manifested for high fever [100.00 ％ (30/30)],splenomegaly [96.67 ％ (29/30)],more than two-line reduction in blood cells [93.33 ％ (28/30)],bone marrow with bloodthirsty phenomenon [86.67 ％ (26/30)],LDH increased [100.00 ％ (30/30)],hypertriglyceridemia [46.67 ％ (14/30)],low fibrin hyperlipidemia [60.00 ％ (18/30)],ferritin increased [93.33 ％ (28/30)],liver damaged [86.67 ％ (26/30)] from patient group,which were higher than those of control group,the differences were statistically significant (x2 =23.11,22.50,36.05,64.20,21.82,5.31,16.54,26.82,46.43,all P ＜ 0.05).But the incidence of superficial lymph nodes enlargement was not high,only 33.33 ％,which made the diagnosis of primary disease difficult.Combined chemotherapy of CHOP or etoposide plus dexamethasone could make the symptoms and laboratory indicators improved,but the median survival time was only 20 days.Compared with the control group,there were significant differences on the survival curves (x2 =35.05,P ＜ 0.0001).Conclusion In T-cell lymphoma with HPS,the clinical manifestations are complex,usually with multi-organ dysfunction,aggressive course,and poor prognosis.The pathogenesis and treatment of HPS should be further studied.

Objective:To analyze the clinicopathological characterization of primary esophageal benign tumor (EBT). Methods:A total of 1,058 EBTs were enrolled from 500,000 cases in an esophageal and cardiac tumor biological sample and clinical information data-base of Henan Key Laboratory for Esophageal Cancer Research (1973-2015) in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. SPSS 21.0 software was applied for data analysis. Results:In this database, 1,058 cases with primary EBTs among the 249,246 esopha-geal tumor patients with detailed clinical and pathological information were identified with an incidence of 0.42%(1,058/249,246). A total of 544 patients were male with an average age of 50±11 years old, whereas 514 patients were female, with an average age of 52± 11 years old. Among the 10 types of EBTs, leiomyoma was the most common type (84.50%, 894/1,058), followed by papilloma (6.90%, 73/1058). Adenoma (0.38%, 4/1,058) was the rarest type. Leiomyoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and neurofibroma mainly oc-curred in male patients. By contrast, lipoma, granulosa cell tumor, schwannoma, and hemangioma mainly occurred in female patients.All five cases of hamartoma occurred only in female patients. Given the incidence of≥50%as the common standard, the common EBT in sequence in young male patients was leiomyoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumor, whereas that in young female patients was granulosa cell tumor and lipoma. The common EBT in sequence in older male patients was papilloma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and leiomyoma, whereas that in older female patients was schwannoma, papilloma, leiomyoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and hamartoma. Additionally, lipoma, hemangioma, neurofibroma, and adenoma in male patients and neurofibroma in female patients oc-curred in older patients. The different ages of patients with EBTs (P=0.034) and leiomyoma (P=0.004) had a statistical significance. In these EBTs, leiomyoma, papilloma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and schwannoma mainly occurred in the middle esophagus, where-as lipoma mainly occurred in the lower esophagus. The major treatment for EBT in the present study was surgery (57.54%, 492/855), which was followed by endoscopic resection (38.01%, 325/855) and others (4.45%, 38/855). Conclusion:The incidence of EBT is low, with a couple of different histological types. Gender, age, and predilection sites are different depending on the histological types of EBTs. Surgery and endoscopic resection are the major treatment methods.

The clinical data of 372 patients with septic shock admitted in departments of critical care medicine of three Grade A tertiary hospitals from January 2013 to December 2015 were retrospectively reviewed,including 211 survival cases and 161 fatal cases.According to septic shock early goal-directed therapy implementation,117 patients received bundle therapy (bundle group),including 30 cases with bundle goal-fully achieved,and 87 cases with bundle goal-partly achieved;and 255 cases received conventional treatment (non-bundle group).Muhiple logistic regression analysis showed that the multiple organ dysfunction syndrome score,length of ICU stay and first time using of antibiotics were independent risk factors for prognosis of septic shock (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in case fatality rate between bundle group and non-bundle group (46.2％ vs.42.0％,P ＞ 0.05),while the fatality in bundle goal-fully achieved group(20.0％)was significantly lower than that of goal-partly achieved group (55.2％) and non-bundle group (42.0％) (P ＜ 0.05).Survival curve analysis showed that the medial survival time in bundle goal-fully achieved group was significantly higher than that in non-bundle group (19.4 vs.10.5 days,P ＜0.05) and that in control group plus goal-partly achieved group(19.4 vs.12.9 days,P ＜0.05).Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that central venous oxygen saturation and antibiotics using within one hour were protective factors for prognosis of septic shock (P ＜ 0.05).The results indicate that antibiotic bundle treatment of all indicators up to standards could significantly reduce the mortality of septic patients and early antibiotics is important in bundle treatment.

Objective: To analysis the pathogenic mutation and the clinical characteristics of a three generation family with congenital pulverulent cataract. Methods: A congenital cataract family was chosen from the First Affiliated Hospital of AnHui Medical University, 5 ml peripheral blood was obtained from each family member to extract genomic DNA.Next generation sequencing was used to detect the mutation in proband (Ⅱ5), Ⅱ6 and Ⅲ8, and Sanger sequencing was applied to verify pathogenic mutation in the whole family members.The mutation site was compared with the gene sequence of 10 000 normal Chinese.PolyPhen-2 and SIFT were applied to analysis the alteration on the protein structure and function and its possible pathogenesis.This study followed the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Ethics Committee of AnHui Medical University (NO.PJ2017-5-17). All patients signed informed consent. Results: The pedigree consisted of 19 members of three generations, including 10 patients and 9 normal family members.Heterozygous mutation of GJA3 gene c. 427G>A (p.G143R) was detected in all patients of the pedigree, but was not found in normal members of the pedigree and 10 000 normal Chinese.The score calculated from SIFT and PolyPhen-2 indicated that the mutation probably had malignant effect on normal protein structure, Swiss-model website analysis showed that the mutation likely altered the secondary structure of the protein CX 46 by reducing an α-helix between 107-115 amino acids.Meanwhile, c.1325-1G>T mutation of HSF4 gene were detected in Ⅱ5 and Ⅲ8, which was not found in other family members and 10 000 normal Chinese.HSF and MaxEntScan results showed that the mutation probably had serious effect on the splicing of mRNA.The cataract development rates of Ⅱ5 and Ⅲ8 were faster than that of the same age in the same generation of the pedigree, and the morphology of lens opacity was changed. Conclusions The heterozygous c. 427G>A mutation in GJA3 gene is responsible for pulverulent cataract in this family, meanwhile the c. 1325-1G>T mutation in HSF4 gene may change the type of phacoscotasmus and accelerate the progress of disease.

Objective To explore methods and effects of implementing comfort nursing care in post-anesthesia care unit by using relative theories of comfort nursing.Methods In anesthesia recovery period, a series of comfort-care measures were conducted to the patients, including nursing care with improved position, relieving postoperative dry mouth by spraying lemonade, protecting body temperature and health education on early post-operation pain, and many others.Results Satisfaction of patients, anesthesiologists and surgeons were significantly improved after developing comfort nursing care in post-anesthesia care unit.Conclusions Development of comfort nursing care in post-anesthesia care unit can improve comfort degree of patients in anesthesia recovery period, reduce their psychological issues like fear and anxiety, improve their satisfaction and promote postoperative recovery.

Objective:To compare the clinical effectiveness between arthroscopic hollow screws combined with a suture anchor, hollow screws and proximal humerus internal locking system (PHILOS) in the treatment of split-type fractures of humeral greater tuberosity.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the 54 patients with split-type fracture of humeral greater tuberosity who had been admitted to Department of Joint Surgery, Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Affiliated to Southwest Medical University from May 2015 to August 2020. There were 17 males and 37 females with an age of (58.4±12.1) years. According to different treatment methods, they were divided into 3 groups. Group A of 18 cases was treated with arthroscopic hollow screws combined with a suture anchor, group B of 18 cases with hollow screws, and group C of 18 cases with PHILOS. The length of surgical incision, and range of shoulder motion, visual analogue scale (VAS), and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score at the last follow-up were recorded and compared between the 3 groups.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the preoperative general information between the 3 groups, indicating the 3 groups were comparable ( P>0.05). The surgical incision in group A [(0.7±0.1) cm] was the shortest, followed by (5.0±1.4) cm in group B, and (12.8±2.1) cm in group C, showing statistically significant differences in pairwise comparison ( P<0.05). In the 3 groups at the last follow-up, respectively, the shoulder forward flexion was 159.7°±13.4°, 154.9°±16.2°, and 160.5°±12.9°, and the shoulder abduction 149.6°±11.3°, 142.4°±12.0°, and 145.1°±10.4°, showing no statistically significant difference among the 3 groups ( P>0.05); the external rotation was 41.1°±8.1°, 38.1°±7.8° and 43.7°±6.2°, showing a statistically significant difference between groups B and C ( P<0.05); the dorsal extension was T 12 (L 5 to T 6), T 12 (L 5 to T 7), and T 12 (L 3 to T 6), showing no statistically significant difference among the 3 groups ( P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference among the 3 groups in the VAS score or ASES score at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). Respectively, there were 2, 6, and 4 patients in groups A, B and C who developed complications, showing statistically significant differences between the 3 groups ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In the treatment of split fractures of humeral greater tuberosity, arthroscopic hollow screws combined with a suture anchor, hollow screws and PHILOS can all relieve pain and restore joint function of the shoulder. However, arthroscopic hollow screws combined with a suture anchor are the most recommendable due to their advantages in minimally invasiveness and reduction in complications.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and safety of minimally invasive surfactant administration (MISA) in preterm neonates with respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS).Methods:In this multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial, 92 preterm infants with gestation age ≤30 weeks and diagnosed with NRDS were enrolled in 8 level Ⅲ neonatal intensive care units (NICU) in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region from 1 st July 2017 to 31 st December 2018. They were randomly assigned to minimally invasive surfactant administration (MISA) group or endotracheal intubation surfactant administration (EISA) group according to random number generated by computer. Infants in both groups received calf pulmonary surfactant preparation at a dose of 70-100 mg/kg. The data of demography, perinatal situation, medication administration, complications, clinical outcomes in the two groups were compared with Chi-square test, Student′s t-test, Mann-Whitney U test or Fisher′s exact test. Results:Among the 92 preterm infants, 53 were males, 39 were females; 47 were in the MISA group (25 males), and 45 were in the EISA group (28 males). The gestational age and birth weight were (29.5±1.2) weeks and (1 271±242) g in all patients, (29.5±1.4) weeks and (1 285±256) g in the MISA group, and (29.6±0.9) weeks and (1 255±227) g in the EISA group. The duration of surfactant infusion and the length of whole procedure in the MISA group were significantly longer than that in the EISA group (60 (18, 270) s vs. 50 (30, 60) s, Z=3.009, P=0.003; 90 (60, 300) s vs. 60 (44, 270) s, Z=3.365, P=0.001). For the outcomes, the incidence of hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) were lower in the MISA group than in the EISA group (36% (17/47) vs. 67% (30/45), χ 2=8.556, P=0.003; 26% (12/47) vs. 47% (21/45), χ 2=4.464, P=0.035). Conclusions:Minimally invasive surfactant administration is applicable in preterm infants ≤30 weeks gestational age with NRDS. Although the length of whole procedure is longer than route endotracheal administration, the benefit of decreasing the incidences of hsPDA and BPD outweighs this demerit.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics, gene mutation profile and prognostic influencing factors of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) complicated with follicular lymphoma (FL) (DLBCL/FL).Methods:The clinicopathological data of 50 DLBCL/FL patients admitted to Rui Jin Hospital Affiliated of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from February 2018 to November 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Targeted sequencing was performed to assess the mutation profile of 55 lymphoma-related genes. The clinicopathological characteristics were summarized to evaluate the short-term therapeutic efficacy of all patients. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of patients. Cox regression risk models were used to assess the factors affecting the OS and PFS.Results:Among 50 DLBCL/FL patients, 23 cases (46%) were male, 22 cases (44%) had an international prognosis index (IPI) score ≥ 2 points, 16 cases (32%) were double-expression lymphoma (DEL) and 4 cases (8%) were double-hit lymphoma (DHL). The complete response (CR) and overall response rates were 68% (34/50) and 78% (39/50), respectively after the first-line therapy. The median follow-up time was 23.3 months (5.1-50.9 months). The 2-year OS rate was 82.1% and 2-year PFS rate was 67.1%; and the median OS and PFS were not reached. Targeted sequencing results showed that the mutation frequencies of KMT2D, MYD88, TP53, BTG2, DTX1, EZH2, CD70, CREBBP, DUSP2, HIST1H1C, HIST1H1E and PRDM1 genes in this cohort were more than 15%. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that male ( HR = 4.264, 95% CI 1.144-15.896, P = 0.031) and IPI score ≥ 2 points ( HR = 6.800, 95% CI 1.771-37.741, P = 0.007) were independent risk factors of PFS in newly diagnosed DLBCL/FL patients, and TP53 mutation ( HR = 4.992, 95% CI 1.027-24.258, P = 0.046) was an risk influencing factor of OS. Conclusions:The proportion of male and female DLBCL/FL patients is similar, with a small proportion of DHL. Mutations of KMT2D, MYD88 and TP53 genes are commonly found in DLBCL/FL patients. Generally, DLBCL/FL patients can have a high overall response and good prognosis. Male and IPI score ≥ 2 points are the independent risk factors of PFS, and TP53 mutation is an independent risk factor of OS in DLBCL/FL patients.

Yersiniosis is one of the "other infectious diarrhea" of the notifiable infectious diseases and also an important food-borne disease. However, it lacked the basis or standard for diagnosis. The Chinese Preventive Medicine Association coordinated experienced researchers from National Institute for Communicable Disease Control and Prevention, China CDC and other institutes to produce the group standard entitled "Diagnosis of Yersiniosis" (T/CPMA 005-2019). Based on the principle of "legality, scientificity, advancement, and feasibility" , the standard gives a clear definition for Yerisiniosis, stipulates diagnosis basis, principles and main differential diagnosis and provides two informative appendixes for epidemiological and clinical characteristics and a normative appendix for laboratory detection. The standard provides accurate basis and methods of Yersiniosis diagnosis for hospitals and CDCs at all levels in China. It will solve the problems that Yersiniosis cannot be clearly diagnosed for clinical cases and in the outbreaks.
