Objective To study the subclavian artery angiography for hemoptysis and its clinical value.Methods Thirty-eight cases of hemoptysis undertook subclavian artery angiography after embolization of bronchial arteries and branches of thoracic aorta. Group A: 4 recurrent cases underwent subclavian artery angiography (unilateral: n =2, bilateral: n =2). Group B: 16 cases underwent subclavian artery angiography according to the manifestation on X-ray and CT (right: n =10, left: n =6). Group C: 18 cases underwent bilateral subclavian artery angiography.Results of subclavian artery angiography were divided into three classes: normal(-),chaotic and hyperplasia of small branchi vessels(+),obviously bleeding (++).Some of the obviously bleeding cases were embolized and analysed for clinical efficacy and complications. Results Bleeding cases accounted for 63.2%(24/38)and bleeding subclavian arteries accounted for 50%(29/58), including(++):37.9%(22/58) and(+): 12.1%(7/58). Positive rate of chronic fibro-cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis was the highest. Bleeding sites were coincided with lung lesions. Twelve cases were embolized with the immediate cessation rate of hemoptysis reaching 100%. Eight cases with long-term follow-up showed 5 cured, 1 with significant effect and 2 recurrent. The complications occurred with fever, vomiting, chest pain, hiccup and dyspnoea.Conclusions Subclavian artery angiography has important clinical value in artery embolization for hemoptysis, especially for lesions in the upper lobes of lungs and with more fruitful result for chronic fibro-cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis.

Objective To investigate the changes of traditional Chinese medical constitution types with menstrual cycle of sub-health state women, thus to explore the affectability of diseases during menstrual cycle. Methods Sub-health State Questionnaire and Menstruation State Questionnaire established in our previous study were used for the epidemiological survey of 330 women outpatients aged 20-45 years admitted by the disease-preventive department of Tianhe District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Results In 330 cases, the cases of sub-health state accounted for 64.5%, in which 21.5%had pure sub-health state without any chronic diseases, and 43.0% had sub-health state together with some diseases. The diseases of hyperplasia of mammary glands, vaginitis, cervical spondylosis, hyperlipemia, chronic appendagitis, and uterus myoma had higher morbidity rate in order. At premenstrual phase, constitution types of Qi stagnation, damp heat, and blood stasis had the higher incidences; at menstruation phase, Qi stagnation, blood stasis, and damp heat had the higher incidences; at postmenstrual phase, yang deficiency, Qi deficiency, and damp heat had the higher incidences. Most of the sub-health state women had the complex constitution types, accounting for 93%. Conclusion Traditional Chinese medical constitution types are correlated with menstral cycle of sub-health state women, and show some effects on the affectability and progress of diseases. The investigation results of dynamic changes and the distribution of traditional Chinese medical constitution types during menstrual cycle will supply some evidence for the prevention and treatment of irregular menstruation and sub-health state of the women with Chinese medine.

Objective? To explore the effect of WeChat mini program in weight-loss management of patients after metabolic surgery. Methods? By convenience sampling,totally 98 patients hospitalized in Zhengzhou Central Hospital received metabolic surgery from March 2018 to November 2018 were recruited as the research objects. Patients were divided into the control group with 48 cases and the observation group with 50 cases according to the order of admission. Both groups received routine perioperative nursing management, and the observation group received extra nursing management based on a WeChat mini program in weight-loss management. The scores of Body Mass Index(BMI),Percentage of Excess Weight Loss(EWL%), Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire(DEBQ) score,International Physical Activity Questionnaire(IPAQ) and the MOS 36 Item Short Form Health Survey(SF-36) were compared before and 3 months after surgery. Results? The EWL% of the observation group at 3 months after operation was (35.23±8.87)%, which was not statistically different with the control group [(34.39±11.00)%](P> 0.05). BMI difference between the observation group and the control group before and 3 months after operation was (5.20±1.40) kg/m2, and there was no significant difference between the observation group and the control group at (5.47±1.40) kg/m2 (P> 0.05). The difference of scores of DEBQ before operation and 3 months after operation was (18.56±9.61), physical activity time was [-5.0 (-135.0, 0.0)]min/week, SF-36 was (-6.22±4.75), all statistically different from the control group({ 2.38±9.30),[0.0(-90.0,0.0)]min/week, (-3.28±5.77)} (P< 0.05). Conclusions? Weight-loss management based on WeChat mini program can improve the dietary behavior and physical activity level of patients after metabolic surgery,and improve the quality of life of patients.

Objective To investigate the incidence and relation to primary diseases of the nonbronchial systemic arteries (NBSA) supply to the pulmonary lesions, and to evaluate the clinical value of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) of the responsible NBSA for hemoptysis. Methods The aortography and subclavian artery angiography were performed in 139 patients with hemoptysis, including pulmonary tuberculosis in 66 cases (2 cases with post-thoracoplasty, 1 case with post-lobectomy, and 1 case with ventricular septal defect), bronchiectnsis in 41 ( 1 ease with post-lobectomy and 1 case with post- ligation of patent ductus arteriosus), bronchiogenic carcinoma in 15, unknown hemoptysis in 7, silicosis in 3, broncholithiasis in 3, bronchial cysts in 1, empyema in 1, postoperative lung cancer in 1, and chronic pulmonary embolism in 1, respectively. TAE was performed in patients with the discoverable responsible NBSA. The frequency, distribution and relation to primary diseases of the responsible NBSA were evaluated and the clinical results and complications were observed. Follow-up time ranged from 6 months to 5 years. Results Seventy-three patients (52. 5% ) had nonbronchial systemic contributions, including 5 cases of post-thoracotomy with pulmonary lesions, 1 case complicating with ventricular septal defect, 1 ease with post-ligation of patent ductus arterinsns, and 1 case of chronic pulmonary embolism. The total number of NBSA were 181 including posterior intercostal arteries (n = 88), internal thoracic arteries (n = 27 ), inferior phrenic arteries ( n = 21 ), proper esophageal arteries ( n = 20 ), lateral thoracic arteries ( n = 9 ), subscapular arteries ( n = 7 ), eostocervical trunks ( n = 5 ) and thyrocervical trunks ( n = 4 ) . Main responsible NBSA were posterior intercostal arteries (n = 75 ) and branches of subclavian and axillary artery (n =44) in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis, and proper esophageal arteries (n = 16 ) and inferior phrenic arteries (n = 17 ) in bronchiectasis. The clinical result was satisfactory and the bleeding ceased immediately in 69 eases including 19 cases of failed or repeated bronchial artery embolization (the arteries had been obstructive) and 4 cases of the normal bronchial arteries. No severe complications occurred except ipsilateral cerebellar infarction after subclavian artery angiography in 1 case and respiratory failure after internal thoracic artery embolization in another case. Sixty patients were followed up for more than 6 months. The result demonstrated episodic bloody sputum in 16 patients, re-bleeding in 11 and non-bleeding in another after TAE. Eight patients had non-bleeding and 2 patients had episodic bloody sputum who were re- bleeding and underwent repeated TAE. Conclusions The stimulation of adjacent lesions and the cardiovascular diseases with weakened or defected pulmonary perfusion can lead to the responsible NBSA supply to the lung in hemoptysis. During TAE for hemoptysis, the integrity angiograpby and TAE can improve the curative effect.
