Objective To explore the health guidance role on treating uterine fibroids in high intensity fo-cused ultrasound thermal ablation(HIFU).Methods High intensity focused ultrasound ablation treatment was used in 74 cases of uterine fibroids patients before and after treatment to enable patients to better health guidance with treatment.Results After treatment,symptoms of patients with the clinical manifestation including menstrual too much,dysmenorrhea,frequent urination,constipation and anemia,were significantly improved.The volume of myoma of uterus before treatment and after treatment for 3 months,6 months and 1 year were (100.780 ±104.243 )cm3 , (53.446 ±49.546)cm3,(32.704 ±32.246)cm3 and (21.991 ±16.301)cm3,respectively.The volume of myoma of uterus gradually reduced after treatment as compared with that before treatment,the difference had statistical signifi-cance(t=6.758,186,7.567,all P<0.01).Conclusion Effective health guidance is beneficial to HIFU treatment for patient.

ObjectiveTo investigate the characteristics of autonomic nervous response of armymen with different mentalqualityuse the enhanced emotion regulationstrategies during fear emotion processes.Methods Mental Quality Questionnaire of Armymen was used to select participants from 818 armymen,screening out 30 armymen with low mental quality,30 armymen with moderate and 30 armymen with high.With elicitation of fear emotion,the participants adopted enhance emotion regulation strategies (cognition emphasis and emotion catharsis),and their blood volume pulse( BVP),skin conductance( SC ),normalized high frequency spectral component(HFnorm),standard deviation of all normal intervals(SDNN) and the recovery time of BVP and SC were recorded.Results ( 1 ) The different mental quality of army men activity in the autonomic physiological changes were not significant differences in resting state.(2) When using the cognition emphasis,the SC of different mental quality of armymen were reduced,and low mental quality of armymen( ( -0.67 ± 1.05 )μ.Ω),moderate mental quality of armymen ( ( - 0.49 ± 0.75 ) μΩ) had larger SC than high mental quality of armymen ( ( - 2.16 ± 2.18 ) μΩ ) ;high mental quality of armymen( ( - 2.17 ± 8.96) nU ) had lower HFnorm than the control( ( 6.96 ± 7.08 ) nU ).When using emotion catharsis,high mental quality of armymen ( ( 1.95 ± 6.58 ) nU ) had lower HFnorm than the control( (6.96 ±7.08)nU).(3)When using the cognition emphasis,low mental quality of armymen ((65.50 ±43.43 )s) had longer recovery time of BVP than high mental quality of armymen( (26.50 ± 25.72)s).When using emotion catharsis,low mental quality of armymen( (71.50 ± 48.36)mm Hg)had longer recovery time of BVP than high mental quality of armymen ( ( 21.00 ± 35.50 ) mm Hg) ; low mental quality of armymen ( ( 103.50 ± 38.01 ) s)had longer SC than moderate( (63.50 ±48.59)s) and high mental quality of armymen( (61.50 ±33.09) s).Conclusion The ability to regulate sympathetic in low mental quality group is weaker than the high mental quality group,although sympathetic can be suppressed when enhanced emotion regulation are adopted.

Objective:To seek the effect of group education under the BOPPPS model(bridge-in, objective, pre-assessment, participatory learning, post-assessment, summary) on the breastfeeding competency of first gestation women, to improve the breastfeeding competency of first gestation women and promote the realization of postpartum breastfeeding.Methods:Eighty-one first gestation women were chosen from the gestation class of the First Affiliated Hospital of Shanxi Medical University, the quasi-experimental research method was adopted, 40 women from January to February 2022 were involved in the control group and 41 women from May to June 2022 were involved in the intervention group. The control group was assigned common education, while the intervention group was assigned group education based on BOPPPS model. Breastfeeding Competency Scale (BCS) and breastfeeding family support questionnaire were used to compare breastfeeding competency and family support level of the two groups before and after intervention, and the skin contact rate at 1 hour after delivery and the pure breastfeeding rate at 42 days after delivery were compared between the two groups.Results:Before intervention, there was no significant difference in breastfeeding competency and family support level between the two groups (all P>0.05). After 4 weeks of intervention, the scores of breastfeeding competency and family support were (147.59 ± 13.50), (3.16 ± 0.18) points in the intervention group, more than those in the control group (125.48 ± 16.87), (2.87 ± 0.22) points, the differences were statistically significant between the two groups ( t=-6.52, -6.30, both P<0.05). The skin contact rate at 1 hour after delivery and the pure breastfeeding rate at 42 days postpartum were 75.6%(31/41), 53.7%(22/41) in the intervention group, more than those in the control group 52.5%(21/40), 30.0%(12/40), the differences were statistically significant between the two groups ( χ 2=4.71, 4.65, both P<0.05). Conclusions:Group education based on BOPPPS model can improve the level of breastfeeding competency and family support of gestation women. It increases the skin contact rate, and plays a good role in promoting the increase of pure breastfeeding rate.

As a thymoid-related autoimmune disease, thymectomy has become one of the effective treatments for MG. We review the surgical indications of MG in this artical.

Objective:To explore the prognosis and clinical risk factor of thymoma patients after resection.Methods:A retrospectively analysis of 154 cases of thymoma patients underwent thymoma resection in Beijing Tongren Hospital (Myasthenia Gravis & Thymoma Diagnosis and Treatment Center, Capital Medical University) from January 2005 to December 2015, and then the progress-free survival was calculated by Kaplan- Meier method, the differences between curves were analyzed by log- rank test. There were 74 males and 80 females; the median age was 52(22-77)years. 121 cases(78.6%)complicated with myashenia gravis. Thymoma cases were classfied into 5 cases A, 35 cases AB, 27 cases B1, 56 cases B2 and 31 cases B3 respectively. There were 80, 16, 45 and 13 patients with Masaoka-Koga type Ⅰ-Ⅳ, respectively. 122 cases were treated by thoracoscopic assisted operation, 32 cases were treated by median sternum. The risk factors about group of gender, age, thymoma-associated MG (Myasthenia Gravis), completeness of resection, histologic type and Masaoka-Koga stage were calculated by Cox regression analysis. Results:The overall 1-, 5- 10-year progress-free survival rate of 154 cases were 98.7%, 88.3%, and 78.7%, respectively. The adverse prognostic factors for progress-free survival were age, completeness of resection, WHO histologic classification and Masaoka-Koga stage at univariate analysis. The age, WHO histologic classification and Masaoka-Koga stage were the independent risk factors at multivariate analysis.Conclusion:For thymoma, we suggest early discovery and early treatment. For the thymoma patients who are available for surgical treatment, all the tumor, thymus and surrounding adipose tissue should be resected. For the thymoma patients whose tumors cannot excise completely, adjuvant radiotherapy can reduce the risk for tumor recurrence after resection. For patients with thymoma after surgery, MG treatment is particularly critical for prognosis.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of moderate-dose glucocorticoid treatment in patients with advanced thymoma.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 56 patients with thymoma who received glucocorticoid treatment at Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 2018 to March 2023. Among them, there were 33 males and 23 females; aged from 28 to 72 years old, with a median age of(43.8±11.2)years old. There were 16 cases of type B1 thymoma, 23 cases of type B2, and 17 cases of type B3. There were 17 cases with myasthenia gravis and 1 case with pure red blood cell aplasia. All patients had received radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Patients received moderate-dose glucocorticoid treatment(50 mg/day), and tumor response was evaluated by CT scan after 2 weeks of treatment. The tumor treatment effect and adverse reactions were recorded.Results:Among the patients, 22 cases achieved partial remission, and 3 cases achieved complete remission, resulting in an overall objective response rate (ORR) of 44.6%. Among them, 23 patients had type B2 thymoma, with 17 achieving partial remission and 3 achieving complete remission, resulting in an ORR of 87.0%. Among the 16 patients with type B1 thymoma, 5 achieved partial remission. No efficacy was observed in 17 patients with type B3 thymoma. The follow-up period ranged from 2 to 26 months, and 2 patients experienced thymoma recurrence.Conclusion:Moderate-dose glucocorticoid treatment demonstrates effective and safe outcomes in advanced or invasive thymoma, particularly for the treatment of type B2 thymoma.

Objective:Analyzed the clinicopathological features of thymoma with alopecia areata, and discussed the pathogenesis and treatment methods.Methods:The clinicopathologic data of patients with thymoma who underwent surgery from August 1, 2015 to July 31, 2020 in Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University were reviewed. Transversally analyzed the patients of thymoma with alopecia areata and longitudinally compared with the patients of thymoma without alopecia areata after 1﹕10 matched by propensity score matching.Results:A total of 252 patients of thymoma were enrolled, including 6 patients with alopecia areata, accounting for 2.38%. The anti-AchR antibody, CD4 + /CD8 + T inversion in serum and myasthenia gravis were present in the all 6 thymoma patients with alopecia areata, which were significantly higher than those in the group of thymoma without alopecia areata. Besides myasthenia gravis, the proportion of complicated with other autoimmune diseases in thymoma patients with alopecia areata was significantly higher than that of thymoma patients without alopecia areata[83.33%(5/6) vs. 20.00%(12/60), P=0.003]. After operation, 5 patients’ alopecia areata were improved in 6 thymoma patients with alopecia areata(83.33%, 5/6). Conclusion:The thymoma patients with alopecia areata always complicated with myasthenia gravis and other autoimmune diseases. The pathogenesis may be associated with autoimmune CD8 + T lymphocytes produced by thymoma. At present, surgery is still the most effective way to improve thymoma-associated alopecia areata.

Objective:To explore the prognostic risk factors of thymoma patients after resection, and establish a novel nomogram to predict progression free survival(PFS) of patients with thymoma.Methods:A retrospectively analysis was performed on clinicopathological datas of 267 cases of thymoma patients underwent thymoma resection in Beijing Tongren Hospital from January 2010 to December 2019. The univariate and multivariate Cox risk ratio models were used to analyze the related factors that might affect PFS, and the prediction nomogram of PFS after thymoma resection was established using the screened independent risk factors. Then the predictive ability of the model was evaluated. Results:The univariate analysis showed that age, type of surgery, completeness of resection, WHO histologic classification, TNM stage and postoperative adjuvant therapy were significantly correlated with PFS after thymoma resection( P<0.05). The multivariate analysis showed that only age and TNM stage were independent prognostic factors affecting PFS after thymoma resection( P<0.05). The concordance index( C- index) of the prediction model for the prognosis of thymoma patients established by this method was 0.866(95% CI: 0.809-0.923), which had remarkable predictive efficiency. Conclusion:The nomogram model is constructed and verified based on age and TNM stage, excluding the interference of other clinicopathological factors on prognosis assessment, and which is convenient for clinicians to quickly and individually evaluate the prognosis of patients after thymoma resection.
