BACKGROUND:At present, a great quantity of research has shown the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s for vascular restenosis. However, studies concerning their combined application to restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with diabetes mel itus are presently lacking.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of combined application of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and benefiting-Qi nourishing-Yin and dissolving-congestion prescription on restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in dogs with diabetes mel itus.
METHODS:A dog model of vascular restenosis with diabetes mel itus was established by bal oon injury of femoral artery and intravenous injection of al oxan. After successful model induction, 22 dog models were randomly divided into three groups:model group (n=6), treatment with Chinese medicine (n=8), and combined treatment with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and Chinese medicine (n=8). Serum vascular endothelial growth factor levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay preoperatively and at 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks postoperation. Samples of vessels were taken to conduct pathomorphological observation and quantitative analysis of proliferation degree. Tissues, including heart, liver, kidney and pancreatic gland, were col ected to evaluate the safety of stem cel transplantation using hematoxylin-eosin staining at 8 weeks postoperation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Serum vascular endothelial growth factor levels began to increase at 1 week postoperation in the Chinese medicine group and combined treatment group, at 4 weeks postoperation in the model group compared with preoperation (P<0.05). At al time points, serum vascular endothelial growth factor levels were highest in the combined treatment group, but lowest in the model group (P<0.05). Quantitative analysis of vascular proliferation demonstrated that at 8 weeks postoperation, new intimal area, new intimal/medial areas and stenosis rate were highest in the model group, but lowest in the combined treatment group at 8 weeks postoperation (P<0.05). Safety assessment of stem cel transplantation showed morphological structures of the heart, liver, kidneys and pancreas were normal, no necrosis. In a word, the effects of the combined application of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and benefiting-Qi nourishing-Yin and dissolving-congestion prescription were much pronounced in preventing restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in dogs with diabetes mel itus rather than single therapy of Chinese medicine. It is a safe and effective treatment to prevent vascular restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in dogs with diabetes mel itus.

We report a critically ill pregnant woman in the third trimester with severe pneumonia due to COVID-19 who presented to Xiaolan People's Hospital of Zhongshan in February 2020. The 32-year-old patient was admitted at 35 +2 gestational weeks with a 4-day history of a sore throat and a fever for three hours. The patient had been to Xiaogan City, Hubei Province, and the symptoms occurred during a period of self-isolation after back home. The condition of the patient deteriorated rapidly, with left-sided chest and back pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, progressing to respiratory failure and septic shock 7 hours after her admission. In view of her critical condition and a history of two previous cesarean sections, an emergency cesarean section was performed. Blood gas analysis of the mother before the operation suggested respiratory failure, respiratory acidosis, and metabolic acidosis. During the operation, a baby boy was born. The Apgar score of the boy, birth weight of 2 700 g, was one at 1, 5 and 10 minutes despite the resuscitation efforts. The neonate died after withdrawing treatment. The patient was treated with tracheal intubation ventilator and other supportive treatments after the operation. The result of the new coronavirus nucleic acid test, taken on admission, but which was reported after delivery, was positive. The patient was transferred to the designated hospital for further treatment and was recovering with the withdrawal of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and ventilation support at 26 and 36 days after surgery, respectively.

Objective:To study the effects of enhanced breastfeeding management on the neurodevelopmental outcomes of preterm infants in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).Methods:From January to December 2020, preterm infants with gestational age (GA) ≥32 weeks admitted to NICU of our hospital were randomly assigned into the enhance group and the control group. Breast-feeding education using WeChat and routinely playing recorded mother's sound to the infants were carried out in the enhance group, while conventional management was carried out in the control group. Breastfeeding status was followed up regularly in both groups. Mental development index (MDI) and psychomotor development index (PDI) at 6-month of corrected GA were measured using Infant Intelligence Development Scale.Results:A total of 109 cases were included in the enhance group and 118 cases in the control group. The breast-feeding rates in the enhance group were significantly higher than the control group at discharge, 3-month and 6-month of corrected GA [88.1% (96/109) vs. 61.0% (72/118), 90.8% (99/109) vs. 67.8% (80/118), 88.1% (96/109) vs. 61.9% (73/118)] ( P<0.05). MDI and PDI at 6-month of corrected GA in the enhance group were significantly higher than the control group [(106.2±10.7) vs. (101.9±11.4), (103.4±13.7) vs. (99.5±11.6)] ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Enhanced breast-feeding management is helpful improving the breast-feeding rate of preterm infants in NICU and beneficial to the neurodevelopment of preterm infants.

Objective To explore influences of bedside sitting nursing on mechanical ventilation duration of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods Ninety six patients with COPD admitted in the hospital from January 2013 to January 2014 were selected as research subjects, who were divided into control group and obser-vation group with 48 patients in each group according to different nursing modes. The patients in the control group were subjected to conventional treatment and nursing, while the patients in the observation group were subjected to bedside sitting nursing on the basis of that applied in the control group, mechanical ventilation duration, length of hospital stay, changes in blood and vigor indexes before and after nursing of two groups of patients were compared and analyzed. Re-sults The differences in comparisons of PaO2, PaCO2 and SpO2 levels of patients in two groups had no statistically signif-icant before nursing (P>0.05); and PaO2, PaCO2 and SpO2 levels of patients in the observation group after nursing were better than those indexes of patients in the control group (P<0.05). Mechanical ventilation duration and length of hospital stay of patients in the observation group were lower than those of patients in the control group, the successful removal of respirators used in the observation hit was 85.4%, was higher than 64.6% in the control group, the incidence of ven-tilator associated pneumonia was 4.2%, was lower than 22.9% in the control group, and the difference was significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The bedside sitting position can effectively improve the ventilation function of patients with COPD, reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation, decrease the occurrence of ventilator associated pneumonia, shorten hospitalization time, and improve the quality of survival, delivering high clinical application value.
