Objective To investigate the predictive value of the baseline ,week 1 and week 2 model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) scores ,MELD‐Na scores and MELDNa scores for 3‐month mortality in hepatitis B virus (HBV) related acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF) patients .Methods Fifty‐three eligible HBV‐related ACLF patients who received initial treatment in People′s Hospital of Deyang City , Sichuan Province from January 2014 to January 2015 were enrolled in this retrospective clinical follow‐up study .Patients were divided into death group and survival group according to the prognosis after 3 months of treatment .Biochemical data and complications were collected .t test was used to compare the means between two groups and χ2 test was used to compare categorical data .Accuracy of scoring models in predicting mortality within 3 months was performed by area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) .Results Of the fifty‐three patients ,twenty‐one HBV‐related ACLF patients died in 3‐month , while thirty‐two patients survived .The AUC of MELD scores ,MELD‐Na scores and MELDNa scores at the baseline in predicting 3‐month mortality were 0 .548 (95% CI:0 .406 -0 .685 , P= 0 .555) ,0 .502 (95% CI:0 .362-0 .643 ,P=0 .978) and 0 .523 (95% CI:0 .381-0 .662 ,P=0 .778) ,respectively .The AUC increased gradually at the first and the second week .At the second week ,the AUC of MELD scores ,MELD‐Na scores and MELDNa scores were 0 .881 (95% CI:0 .762 -0 .953 ,P<0 .01) ,0 .878 (95% CI:0 .759-0 .951 ,P<0 .01) and 0 .897 (95% CI:0 .783 -0 .963 ,P<0 .01) ,respectively .The AUC of the second week was higher than those of the baseline and the first week (both P<0 .05) .The sensitivity ,specificity ,positive predictive value (PPV) ,and accuracy at the second week were best when the cut off was 26 for MELD ,29 for MELD‐Na and 29 for MELDNa , and were higher than the corresponding values of the baseline and the first week .Conclusions The predictive values of MELD scores ,MELD‐Na scores and MELDNa scores at the second week are superior to the baseline and the first week for 3‐month mortality in HBV‐related ACLF patients ,while the predictive values at the baseline could be poor .

Objective To explore the feasibility of C14-urea breath test in the diagnosis of child chronic cough.Methods One hundred and twenty children cases of chronic cough were collected as the research subjects and divided into the C14 group(adopting C14-urea breath test for diagnosis) and combined group(C14-urea breath test combined with routine diagnostic method) according to different diagnostic means,60 in each group.Then the positive diagnostic rate and effectiveness were analyzed and compared between the two diagnostic methods.Furthermore the ROC curve was adopted to evaluate its diagnostic value.Results The positive diagnosis rate in the C14 group was 76.67%,which was significantly lower than 95.00% in combined groups,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001).The sensitivity and positive predictive value in the combined group were obviously higher than those in the C14 group (P<0.01),but there were no statistically significant differences in specificity and negative predictive value between the two methods (P>0.05).The expression levels of serum hs-CRP and IL-6 in the C14 group were significantly higher than those in the combined group,but the expression level of IL-10 was obviously lower than that of the combined group (P<0.05).The AUC in the ROC curve of combined group was significantly higher than that of the C14 group(P<0.05).Conclusion The C14-urea breath test can serve as a supplementary diagnosis means in child chronic cough,and its combining with the routine diagnosis method can significantly increase the diagnosis effectiveness.

objecive To chrify clinical characteristics and outcme of acute/subacute interstitial pneumonia(A/SIP)in patients with dermatomyositis.Methods The elinical data of 10 dermatemyositis patients accompanied with A/SIP who hospitalized in April 2006 to April 2008 were reviewed.Data of 9 dermatomyesitis patients with non-A/SIP interstitial lung diseases treated during the same period were also documented for the comparison.The survival rate of patients wag statistically analyzed.Results Compared with those dermatomyositis patients with non-A/SIP interstitial lung diseases,patients with A/SIP had shorter disease courses and higher incidences of fever,heliotrope rash and ground glass opacity in CT image(P＜0.01or＜0.05).However,the levels of serum creatine kinase tended to be normal.After following up 6 months,only 1 patientwithA/SIP survived(P=0.0001).Logistic regression analysis showed the combination treatment of hormonal,cyclophosphamide and cyclosparine might prolong the survival time(P=0.107).Conclusions A/SIP with dermatomyositis is a fatal disease which needs to be early diagnosed and treated.Patients having dyspnea or breathless in the early stage,especially those with recurrent fever,heliotrope rash and normal serum creatine kinase is predicted to develop A/SIP later.A better outcome may be achieved when treating the patients with stemids plus cyclophosphamide and cyclosporine.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of unintentional injuries among children patients at age of ≤ 14 years so as to provide scientific basis for prevention of the children injury. Methods ICD-10 coding was used to retrospectively analyze the epidemiological characteristics of the children patients with unintentional injuries at age of ≤ 14 years admitted from January to December 2009 and the factors affecting the prognosis were discussed. Results There were 3011 patients, with 1991 males (66.12%) and 1 020 females (33.88%). The patients at ages of < 1, 1-4, 5-9 and 10-14 years accounted for 8.24%, 53.30%, 27.90% and 10.56% respectively. The patients from the rural and urban areas accounted for 56.16% and 43.84% respectively. Trauma was the leading sort of injuries in four age groups, accounting for 70.56%, 62.68%, 89.64% and 87.74% respectively. Fall from height was the first cause of unintentional injuries in four age groups, with proportion for 47.58%,36.39%, 51.90% and 56.29% respectively. Muhinomial logistic regression analysis revealed that hospital stay, therapeutic mode ( operation/non-operation), inhabitancy ( urban/rural), causes of injuries and injury severity on admission were the risk factors affecting the prognosis (P < 0.05 ). The rural areas caused higher risk of disability than the urban areas ( OR = 2. 170 ,P < 0.01 ) and non-operation produced higher risk of death than operation (OR = 6.352,P < 0. 01 ). Conclusions The male patients with unintentional injury are more than the female ones, with the highest incidence rate in children at age of 1-4years. Trauma is the main kind of unintentional injury and the fall from height the leading cause of injury.The difference of the rural and urban areas indicates that correct choice of the preventive measures based oh the condition of the local area can attain effective prevention and control of the unintentional injuries.

Objective To investigate the effects of femoral nerve block combined with celecoxib on postoperative analgesia in elderly patients with hip fracture. Methods Two hundreds ASA -Ⅲ patients aged 65-89 yrweighing 35-90 kg undergoing hip fracture surgery were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 50 each):control group (group Ⅰ ), femoral nerve block group ( group Ⅱ ), celecoxib group (group Ⅲ ) and femoral nerve block +celecoxib group (group Ⅳ ). Operations were performed under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia. Groups Ⅲand Ⅳ were given oral celecoxib 400 mg at 1 h before operation, and 200 mg at 1 and 2 days after operation twice a day. Groups Ⅰ and Ⅲ received iv injection of sufentanil 0.06 μg/kg before the patients were placed in the position, while in groups Ⅱ and Ⅳ femoral nerve block was performed using a nerve stimulation with 20 ml of 0.5%ropivacaine and 10 min later the patients were placed in the position. All the patients received postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia with sufentanil to maintain visual analogue scale score ≤ 3. The condition of satisfactory analgesia and sufentanil consumption within 24, 48 and 72 h were recorded. The coagulation function was measured on the day of admission to the hospital, at 1 day before operation and at 4 days after operation. Cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnI) concentrations were measured before operation, at the end of operation and at 1 day after operation. Postoperative complications was observed and recorded. Results Compared with group Ⅰ , the consumption of sufentanil was significantly reduced during each period in group Ⅳ ( P ＜ 0.01 ). Compared with group Ⅱ , the consumption of sufentanil was significantly reduced within 48 and 72 h after operation (P ＜ 0.05), while no significant change was found within 24 h after operation in group Ⅳ ( P ＞ 0.05). Compared with group Ⅲ , the consumption of sufentanil was significantly reduced within 24 h after operation ( P ＜ 0.05 ), while no significant change was found within 48 and 72 h in group Ⅳ ( P ＞ 0.05). The level of satisfactory analgesia was significantly higher in group Ⅳ than in the other three groups, and in groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ than in group Ⅰ ( P ＜ 0.05). The 4 groups were comparable with respect to the increased rate of cTnI concentrations at the end of operation and after operation, and perioperative blood coagulation. No postoperative complications were found in the 4 groups. Conclusion Femoral nerve block combined with celecoxib can reduce postoperative opioid consumption and enhance postoperative analgesia in elderly patients with hip fracture.

Objective To investigate any neuroprotective effect of hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) on the mitochondria of dopaminergic neurons using a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced mouse model of Parkinson's disease.Methods Forty-eight male SPF C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to either a normal control group (treated with a 30 ml/kg intraperitoneal injection of physiological saline once a day),a model group ( treated with a 30 mg/kg intraperitoneal injection of MPTP once a day) or an HBO therapy group ( treated with a 30 mg/kg intraperitoneal injection of MPTP and HBO once a day).The expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) protein,PINK1 protein and caspase-3 in brain tissue was measured using immunohistochemistry and Western blotting assays.Results Compared with the control group,the expression levels of TH protein and PINK1 protein were significantly lower in the neurons of the substantia nigra in the model mice.HBO therapy upregulated the expression of TH and PINK1 protein.Compared with the control group,the average level of caspase-3 protein in the neurons of the substantia nigra in the model mice was significantly higher.HBO therapy downregulates the expression of caspase-3 protein.Conclusions HBO can protect mitochondria and inhibit apoptosis of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra of brains with (MPTP-induced) Parkinson's disease by upregulating the expression of PINK1 protein and TH protein,and downregulating the expression of caspase-3 protein.

Microwaves can be directly transformed into heat inside materials because of their ability of penetrating into any substance. The degree that materials are heated depends on their dielectric properties. Materials with high dielectric loss are more easily to reach a resonant state by microwaves field, then microwaves can be absorbed efficiently. Microwave irradiation technique with the unique heating mechanisms could induce drug-polymer interaction and change the properties of dissolution. Many benefits such as improving product quality, increasing energy efficiency and reducing times can be obtained by microwaves. This paper summarized characteristics of the microwave irradiation technique, new preparation techniques and formulation process in pharmaceutical industry by microwave irradiation technology. The microwave technology provides a new clue for heating and drying in the field of pharmaceutics.
