Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with inflammatory bowel disease(IBD). Methods Three hundreds and seventy-nine IBD patients identified at Sir Run Run Shaw hospital between 1994 and 2003 were studied. Demographic and clinical data were collected and analyzed. Results Of 379 patients, 317 had ulcerative colitis(UC,83.6%), 168 men, 149 women, male/female ratio 1.1∶1, mean age 44 years (range 14-79 years) and 62 had Crohn's disease(CD,16.4%), 39 men and 23 women, male/female ratio 1.7∶1, mean age 33 years (range 13-70 years).The incidence of hospitalization for IBD was 31/10 6 in 1994 and 152/10 6 in 2003. Among UC patients, 11.4% was proctitis, 25.2% was proctosigmoiditis, 18.6% was colitis of left-colon and 44.8% was pan-colitis. Seventy-one patients (22.4%) were hospitalized and 28 patients (39.4%) met the criteria for severe grade. Nine patients (2.8%) presented with arthritis, 3 patients (0.9%) presented with ophthalmologic diseases. Of 62 CD patients, 16(25.8%) had lesions restricted to the terminal ileum, 15(24.2%) had lesions involv- ing colon, 20(32.3%) had ileocolonic lesions and 11(17.7%) had lesions involving the proximal part of ileum , 33 (53.2%) patients were hospitalized and 16 patients underwent operation. Conclusions During the past 9 years, the incidence of IBD was markedly increased which was mainly contributed by UC. The characteristics of IBD were less severe and few extra-intestinal manifestations.

Objective:To investigate the supply status of dementia care services in pension agency in Guang zhou,thus to put forward suggestions for improving the service quality of the long-term care for dementia.Methods:Using questionnaire research and individual interview,an interview survey was conducted among managers,dementia and nursing assistant in ten pension agencies in Guangzhou.The data was analyzed by SPSS16.0 statistical method.Results:The dementia had been increasingly paid attention by the pension agencies,but there were still considerable defects in the aspect of the zone set up and service supply;the professional quality of nursing personnel in pension agencies had steadily increased,but shorthanded situation was more obvious.Conclusions:It suggests that we should provide specialized nursing level and the classification standard of care requirements for dementia elders;strengthen the training of mental health worker to enhance the level of medical care and supply ability of nursing assistant;allocate the mental health resources rationally;explore the “combination of medical treatment and endowment” service model which meets the need of dementia elders.

AIM: To determine the relationship between antigen-induced airway inflammation characterized by pulmonary eosinophilia and bronchial hyperreactivity in rats, and to evaluate the effect of theophylline at different doses. METHODS: In ovalbumin (OA)-sensitized rats, bronchiole wall area, eosinophils around bronchi, and the responses to methacholine (MCh) aerosol were measured after 1% OA aerosol challenge with computer-assisted techniques. RESULTS: OA challenge caused both inflammation and airway hyperreactivity, and there was a significantly positive correlation between them. Oral theophylline (1-12.5 mg/kg, bid for 7 days) attenuated antigen-induced inflammation (swelling of bronchiole walls and pulmonary eosinophilia) and bronchial hyperreactivity. CONCLUSION: These findings confirm that bronchial hyperreactivity positively correlates to airway inflammation in the rat, and suggest that theophylline at relatively lower doses has anti-inflammatory effect in airway allergic reaction.

This study is to prepare scopolamine hydrobromide nanoparticles-in-microsphere system (SH-NiMS) and evaluate its drug release characteristics in vitro. SH nanoparticles were prepared by ionic crosslinking method with tripolyphosphate (TPP) as crosslinker and chitosan as carrier. Orthogonal design was used to optimize the formulation of SH nanoparticles, which took the property of encapsulation efficiency and drug loading as evaluation parameters. With HPMC as carrier, adjusted the parameters of spray drying technique and sprayed the SH nanoparticles in microspheres encaposulated by HPMC was formed and which is called nanoparticles-in-microsphere system (NiMS). SH-NiMS appearances were observed by SEM, structure was obsearved by FT-IR and the release characteristics in vitro were evaluated. The optimized formulation of SH nanoparticles was TPP/CS 1:3 (w/w), HPMC 0.3%, SH 0.2%. The solution peristaltic speed of the spray drying technique was adjusted to 15%, and the temperature of inlet was 110 degrees C. The encapsulation product yeild, drug loading and particle sizes of SH-NiMS were 94.2%, 20.4%, and 1256.5 nm, respectively. The appearances and the structure of SH-NiMS were good. The preparation method of SH-NiMS is stable and reliable to use, which provide a new way to develop new dosage form.

Objective To evaluate the post-puncture complications in children,and to evaluate the difference in the occurrence rate of headache and backache between patients who had 1 hour of supine recumbency and those who had 4 hours of supine recumbency,to provide evidence for the standardized lumbar puncture (LP) procedure of children.Methods Inpatients who were older than 3 and had diagnostic LP in the course of their treatment between Nov.2012 and Apr.2013 were enrolled.The LP was performed by the same investigator under the standardized institutional guideline for LP and the information of number of LP attempts,duration of LP and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage volume were recorded.After the procedure,all the children were randomly assigned into 2 groups:the test group had supine recumbency for 1 hour after LP,and the control group had it for 4 hours.For the first 5 days following LP,reports of headache and backache were recorded by another physician who didn't participate in this study.The difference in the occurrence rate of headache and backache between test group and control group was assessed by the chi-square test or Fisher's probabilities in 2 × 2 table.And a Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the risk factors for the occurrence of the headache and backache.Results The overall frequency of headache was 4.6％ (4/87 cases).The frequency of headache was not significantly different between the test group (2.4％) and control group (6.7％) (P =0.617).And the overall frequency of backache was 19.5 ％ (17/87 cases),and it was not significantly different between the 2 groups (test group:21.4％,control group:17.8 ％,P =0.668).In a Logistic regression analysis,age (P =0.011,OR:6.884,95％ CI:1.398-33.906) and the previous history of lumbar puncture (P =0.018,0R:0.126,95 ％ CI:0.026-0.618) were significant risk factors for the occurrence of backache.The risk of backache in children with more than 2 times of LP was decreased.And the risk was higher in the children older than 6 years than those younger than 6 years.Conclusions Headache and backache were the most frequent post-puncture complications in children.There was no difference between short duration (1 hour) of supine recumbency and long duration (4 hours) in preventing the occurrence of headache and backache after LP.

Objective:To investigate the effect of upper limb pillow position on hemodynamic and safety of patients undergoing cerebellopontine angle tumor resection.Methods:Eighty-four patients receiving cerebellopontine angle tumor resection in our hospital from January 2016 to December 2019 were randomly divided into the experimental group (42 cases) and the control group (42 cases). Patients in the control group were placed in routine upper limb position, while patients in the experimental group were placed in upper limb pillow position. The data including systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, heart rate, saturation of blood oxygen were recorded on admission of operation room, completing placing body position, 30 minutes and 60 minutes after operation and after finishing the operation. The numbness/soreness of upper limbs and pressure injury rate was compared between the experimental group and the control group.Results:The rate of numbness/soreness of upper limbs were 2.4% (1/42) in the experimental group, 19.1%(8/42) in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( χ2 value was 6.098, P<0.05). The stage 1 pressure injury were 2 cases in the experimental group, stage 1 and 2 pressure injury were 6 cases and 2 cases, respectively in the control group, the differences were statically significant ( Z value was 2.039, P<0.05). Conclusion:Upper limb pillow position of the operation side can reduce postoperative complication of patients undergoing cerebellopontine angle tumor resection, but will not increase the risk of abnormal hemodynamic fluctuation.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features and adjuvant chemotherapy of children with medulloblastoma(MB).Methods:Clinical data of 21 pathologically confirmed MB children admitted to the department of pediatrics of Beijing Tongren Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from May 2012 to November 2017 were collected to analyze the clinical efficacy and prognosis of multidisciplinary combined treatment.Results:There were 21 children enrolled in the study(15 males and 6 females; median age: 6 years and 3 months). The majority of tumors were from the fourth ventricle(66.7%, 14/21 cases). The most common type of pathological tissue was classic medulloblastoma(61.9%, 13/21 cases). Most of the molecular types was type 4(47.6%, 10/21 cases). There were 15 cases(71.4%)in the high-risk group and the remaining 6 cases(28.6%)in the low-risk group without metastasis(M0 stage). Total tumor resection was performed in 16 cases(76.2%). The patients were followed up to December 2019(median follow-up time was 29 months). After comprehensive treatment, 11 patients died and 6 patients relapsed.The 2-year survival rate was 61.5%, and the 5-year survival rate was 51.1%.Cox regression multivariate analysis showed that the survival rate of children with no tumor spread, short time interval between radiotherapy and surgery was higher( P<0.05). Conclusion:The incidence of MB in boys is higher than that in girls.Whether the tumor is disseminated or not, the time interval between radiotherapy and surgery are independent risk factor affecting the prognosis.Multidisciplinary combination therapy can effectively improve the long-term prognosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,treatment and prognosis of hepatoblastoma (HB) patients with the central nervous system (CNS) metastasis.Methods The clinical data of 12 patients with CNS metastasis who were admitted to Beijing Tongren Hospital,Capital Medical University from January 2011 to June 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.The clinical features,treatment and prognosis of HB patients with CNS metastasis were summarized.Results (1) Clinical features:all 12 patients were diagnosed as stage-Ⅳ patients according to postoperative Children's Oncology Group (COG) stage system.The primary positions of extrahepatic metastatic characteristics were as follows:lung metastasis in 12 cases,bone metastasis in 3 cases,and adrenal metastasis in 2 cases,right atrial metastasis in 1 case,and abdominal lymph node metastasis in 1 case.Fetal and epithelial mixed type was the most common type in pathologic Pathologic classification of HB (50％,6/12 cases).CNS metastasis was detected in all 12 cases during the course of treatment.Brain metastasis were found in 11 cases of CNS imaging features,and 1 case had spinal metastatic tumors.(2) The treatment for CNS metastasis:all cases were given chemotherapy-based comprehensive treatment after being diagnosed as CNS metastasis of HB.Ten cases of CNS metastasis were treated by maintenance chemotherapy and 2 cases received chemotherapy plus intracranial tumor resection.(3) The prognosis of HB with CNS metastasis:the follow-up time was from 7 months to 54 months in 12 HB cases with CNS metastasis,and the median follow-up time was 20 months.The survival time of HB was 1-15 months,and the median survival time was 3.5 months after the diagnosis of CNS metastasis.Two cases of CNS metastasis were given intracranial tumor resection and chemotherapy and were followed up to June 2016,and survival time was 15 months and 5 months respectively.The survival time of other 10 cases without intracranial surgery was 1-6 months,and the median survival time was 3 months.By drawing survival function curve and applying Log-Rank test for CNS transfer children,the survival time of patients given intracranial tumor resection and chemotherapy was longer than those without surgery (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The occurrence of CNS metastasis occurred in HB patients in phase-Ⅳ patients with pulmonary metastasis.The most common site of CNS metastasis is brain metastasis,which is hematogenous metastatic pathway,and 1 case of spinal cord metastasis was considered as the local invasion and metastasis.For HB cases with CNS metastasis,the survival time is short and the prognosis is poor,but the survival time might be prolonged for the phase-Ⅳ patients with intracranial tumor resection.

Objective To analyze the clinicopathologic characteristics,treatment and prognosis of retinoblasto-ma without calcification.Methods The clinic and pathologic data of 20 cases of retinoblastoma without calcification were analyzed retrospectively.All the cases were selected from 710 cases of retinoblastoma archived in Beijing Tongren Hospital,Capital Medical University from April 2010 to April 2015.The inclusion criteria was no calcification on CT scan before treatment.The patients after enuclea-tion were diagnosed according to pathology;the patients without enu-cleation were diagnosed according to clinical manifestations,Retcam fundus,ophthalmic ultrasound and the reduction of tumor after chemotherapy.The clinical features,treatment and prognosis were summarized through statistical analysis of the 20 cases.The patients were followed -up through clinical reexamination and telephone calls.Results In this study,there were 14(70.0%)male and 6(30.0%)female patient′s;there were 19 cases(95.0%)less than 5 -year -old,14 cases (70.0%)less than 3 -year -old,1 case (5.0%)less than 1 -year -old.Eighteen cases (90.0%)were unilateral disease,and 2 cases (10.0%)were bilateral disease.According to international Intraocular Retinoblastoma Classification stage:4 cases (18.2%)in stage E ,17 cases (77.3%)in stage D ,1 case (4.5%)in stage C.Five cases (25.0%)were enucleated eyes,and pathology report was retinoblastoma.Nine cases (45.0%) were treated with pre -enucleation chemotherapy,and finally enucleated after poor tumor shrinkage or recurrence,and the pathology was retinoblastoma.Five cases (25.0%)without enucleation were stable.One case (5.0%)failed to follow -up owing to the patients irregular treatment.In 14 enucleation cases,histopathologic high risk factors could be found in 3 cases (21 .4%),and couldn′t be found in the other 11 cases (78.6%).In the cases that were not enuclea-ted,the tumor diminished in size or new calcification presented in the fundus examination,and in 12 cases,new calcifi-cation was pre-sented on follow -up CT scan.Follow -up failed in 1 case(5.0%),but follow -up was available for 19 cases,and among them 13 cases (68.4%)were disease -free survival and 6 cases (31 .6%)were alive with tumor. Conclusions Close attention should be paid to the untypical retinoblastoma with no calcification on CT scan through well -taken medical history and meticulous imaging examination,in order to give early diagnosis and therapy.
