Objective To asses the value of ST segment elevation of aVR lead (aVRSTE) in patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Method Myocardial enzymes detection, electrocar-dingraphy, emergency eornary artery angiography, echoeardiography [taken(10±2) days after emergency cornary artery angiography] were obtained and analyzed in 140 consecutive patients with STEMI enrolled in this study. The value of aVRSTE (≥0.05 mV) was assessed for detecting left main stem lesions(defined as ≥50% stenosis of or acute embolism of left main stem)or its equivalent (defined as total or subtotal acute occlusion of left anterior de-scending artery), and predicting the left ventricular systolic function after myocardial infarction. Results The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of aVRSIE in detection of left main stem lesions were 72.73 % (8/11), 83.72 % (108/129),27.59 % (8/29) and 97.30% (108/111), respectively; in detection of left main stem lesions or its equivalent, they were 41.86 % (18/43), 88.66% (86/97), 62.07 % (18/29), 77.48% (86/111); aVRSYE were combined with STaVR-STv1>0 to detect left main stem lesions, the semi-tivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 63.64% (7/11),98.45%(127/129),77.78%(7/9),96.95% (127/131). Patients were divided into two groups: groups A with aVRSIE and group B without aVRSYE. KIIJJP class,and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in group A was higher than those in group B (P<0.05). Conclusions For patients with STEMI: (1) aVRSTE indicated left main stem le-sions or its equivalent; if combined with STaVR-STv1>0, it indicated left main stem lesions more strongly; (2)aVRSTE predicted poorer left ventricular systohc function short time after STEMI.

Objective To understand the present condition of preclinical dental undergraduate in-terns' AIDS-related knowledge. Methods The questionnaire was designed referring to domestic and foreign relevant questionnaires. The cluster sampling method was used to conduct the questionnaire survey among the undergraduates who started their clinical internship in July 2016 in three domestic colleges, using SPSS 14.0 statistical software to analyze it. Results In this survey, 144 questionnaires were distributed, and 144 ones were filled out and sent back. The survey results suggested that 97.22% (140) of interns held a posi-tive attitude towards aiding HIV-infected patients despite that 96.53% (139) of interns knew that dental medical staff was considered to be highly susceptible with HIV. In spite of the fact that most interns knew AIDS-related knowledge and protection measures, 40.28% (58) of interns were not clear about incubation period of AIDS, and the average awareness of children's AIDS and methods to disinfect HIV-infected dental instruments was less than half in the interns. Meanwhile it was found that 86.81% (125) of interns didn't perform well in terms of complying with the principles of confidentiality in AIDS prevention and treatment. Conclusion Dental clinical interns' attitudes towards AIDS-infected patients should be praised. Further-more, they should accept education about infection control to have a deeper understanding about AIDS-related clinical manifestations and legal knowledge in order to reduce the probability of nosocomial infec-tion of AIDS.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of dexmedetomidine combined with ulinastatin on stress reaction indexes,ex-travascular lung water value(EVLW)and pulmonary vascular permeability indexes(PVPI)and other parameters in one-lung venti-lation(OLV)lobectomy patients. METHODS:A total of 80 patients underwent OLV lobectomy selected from the Affiliated Hospi-tal of Southwest Medical University during Nov. 2015-Nov. 2016 were divided into control group (group N),ulinastatin pretreat-ment group(group U),dexmedetomidine continuous pump group(group D),ulinastatin pretreatment+dexmedetomidine continu-ous pump group(group U+D),with 20 cases in each group. Thirty min before anesthesia induction,all patients were given atro-pine sulfate 0.5 mg intramuscularly and received catheterization of right internal jugular vein and ipsilateral femoral artery under lo-cal anesthesia. Based on that,group N was given 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 100 mL intravenously;group U was given sodi-um chloride mixed solution 100 mL containing Ulinastatin for injection 200000 U intravenously;group D was given continuous in-travenous pump of Dexmedetomidine hydrochloride injection 2 μg/mL mixed with sodium chloride mixed solution at 1 μg/(kg·h), and after induction intravenous pump at 0.5 μg/(kg·h)until the end of surgery;group U+D was given Sodium chloride mixed so-lution containing 200000 U ulinastatin 50 mL and 4 μg/mL dexmedetomidine sodium chloride mixed solution 50 mL intravenously (same dose as above during induction period and maintenance period). The levels of blood glucose,partial pressure of oxy-gen [p(O2)],adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH),norepi-nephrine (NE),heart rate (HR),cardiac output (CO),sys-temic vascular resistance(SVR),EVLW and PVPI were com-pared among 4 groups 30 min before anesthesia induction(T1),2 h after the beginning of surgery(T2),immediately after extuba-tion(T3)and 12 h after surgery(T4). Liquid intake and output volume were recorded during T2-T4. The occurrence of ADR among 4 groups was observed. RESULTS:There was no statistical significance in each index among 4 groups at T1 (P>0.05). During T2-T4,the levels of blood glucose,ACTH,NE,SVR,EVLW and PVPI in group N were significantly higher than other 3 groups, and group U and D were significantly higher than group U+D,with statistical significance(P<0.05);there was no statistical sig-nificance between U and D(P>0.05). The levels of p(O2)and CO in groups U+D were significantly higher than other 3 groups, with statistical significance (P<0.05);there was no statistical significance among other 3 groups (P>0.05). HR of group N and U were significantly higher than other 2 groups,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance be-tween group N and U,between group D and U+D(P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in liquid intake or output vol-ume among 4 groups (P>0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 4 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Dexmedetomidine combined with ulinastatin can significantly relieve stress reaction,and reduce the levels of part blood flow and respiratory dynamics indexes as EV-LW,PVPI in patients with OLV lobectomy so as to play lung protective effect.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of injectable modified sodium hyaluronate gel DX23 in filling and treating midface depression.Methods:A prospective, randomized, multicenter, "no treatment" controlled study was conducted. Patients with midface depression who were treated from March 2019 to February 2021 at Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, and Jining First People’s Hospital were enrolled. Patients were randomized using a stratified block randomization method with a random function list. The experimental group received injectable modified sodium hyaluronate gel DX23 to treat midface depression. The concentration of sodium hyaluronate in DX23 was 23 mg/ml. The syringe was inserted perpendicularly to the skin at a 90-degree angle, and the injection layers were the superficial periosteum or the subcutaneous layer. The injection volume ranged from 1 to 6 ml. The control group received no treatment. The upper boundary of the midface extended outward from the zygomatic arch to the upper margin of the helix and inward to the line connecting the outer canthus. The lower boundary was the line connecting the corner of the mouth to the earlobe. Researchers used the midface aesthetic scales (MAS) response rate at 6 months post-injection as the primary indicator to evaluate the efficacy in improving the severity of midface depression. A reduction of 1 point in the MAS score compared to pre-treatment was considered a response, i. e., effective. Secondary indicators included the MAS response rates at 6 and 12 months after the last treatment (MAS response rate=number of MAS responders/total cases × 100%), the average change in three-dimensional midface volume images, the global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS) response rate, patient satisfaction regarding the degree of improvement in midface volume, and monitoring of adverse reactions. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 25.0, SAS 9.04, and StataIC 15.0 software. The full analysis set (FAS) and the per-protocol set (PPS) were selected for analysis. Inferential analysis used t-tests and chi-square tests, with P<0.05 considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 164 patients were enrolled. The experimental group included 134 patients (7 males and 127 females) with an average age of 43.0±9.7 years (ranging from 21.6 to 66.6 years). The control group included 30 patients (5 males and 25 females) with an average age of 39.3±11.1 years (ranging from 25.6 to 43.5 years). The experimental group received bilateral midface depression filling, with an initial use of injectable modified sodium hyaluronate gel DX23 at a volume of (4.07±1.28) ml. In the experimental group, 3 cases were lost to follow-up at 30 days, 2 cases at 60 days, and 10 cases were excluded due to protocol violations. Fifteen patients entered FAS but not PPS. Ultimately, 119 patients completed the trial. The MAS response rates in the experimental group at 6 and 12 months post-treatment were 94.96% (113/119) and 56.30% (67/119), respectively. The control group’s MAS response rate at 6 months was 3.33% (1/30). At the 6-month follow-up post-treatment, the GAIS response rates evaluated by researchers and patients in the experimental group were 97.48% (116/119) (PPS) and 97.69% (27/30) (FAS), respectively. In the control group, the GAIS response rate evaluated by researchers was 3.33% (1/30) (FAS, PPS), and the patient GAIS response rate was 0% (0/30) (FAS, PPS). There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in both researcher and patient GAIS response rates (both P<0.01). At 6 months post-injection, comparisons of midface volume changes from baseline between the experimental and control groups showed statistically significant differences [(1.65±1.40) ml (PPS) vs. (0.12±0.85) ml; (1.55±1.44) ml (FAS) vs. (0.12±0.85) ml; both P<0.001]. At the 6-month follow-up in the experimental group, 1 case was lost to follow-up. In the PPS, 81 patients were "satisfied, " 34 were "very satisfied, " and 3 were "neutral." In the control group, 29 patients were "neutral, " and 1 was "dissatisfied." A total of 128 patients in the experimental group experienced injection site reactions, including swelling, hardness, tenderness, pain, lumps (protrusions), and bruising. Over 75% of patients resolved spontaneously within 8 days. Three cases received hot compress treatment and resolved within 28 days. One case experienced swelling of the left lower eyelid 1 day after injection, which resolved after local compression for 3 months. In the control group, 1 case developed circulatory ischemia and carotid atherosclerosis 12 months after the trial began. Conclusion:Injectable modified sodium hyaluronate gel DX23 corrects midface depression through local volume augmentation and is characterized by safety and durability.

Objective:To establish the "1+3" management module of high-value consumables in Operation Room and verify its application, so as to provide new ideas for cost management of consumables in Operation Room.Methods:The Operating Room team of Shenzhen Hospital of Southern Medical University designed a "1+3" management module in 2022, where "1" referred to the management process of high-value consumables in Operation Room, and "3" referred to the precise management of consumables in Operation Room warehouse, the management of closed-loop use of Operation Room consumables and adverse event management of consumables. Surgeries using high-value consumables in the Thoracic Surgery Department, Gastrointestinal Surgery Department, and Urology Department of the hospital were selected as the research objects. The surgeries using conventional consumables from January to June 2022 were set as the control group, and the surgeries implementing the "1+3" management module from July to December 2022 were set as the observation group. The number of consumables received by the itinerant nurses before the operation and the number of high-value consumables returned after the operation were compared between the two groups. And the number of missed and error charges for high-value consumables in the two groups were counted and compared.Results:The number of consumables received before operation in the control group was higher than that in the observation group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The number of high-value consumables returned in the observation group was less than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). The proportion of missed charges for consumables in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01), but there was no statistically significant difference in the proportion of incorrect charges between the two groups ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:The "1+3" management module for high-value consumables in Operation Room makes the process of receiving, returning, and charging high-value consumables clear, with traceable data, achieving refined management of high-value consumables in Operation Room, reducing the number of high-value consumables returned to the warehouse and reducing the proportion of missed consumables, which is conducive to effective cost control in Operation Room.
