The medicinal use of Malvae Semen has a long history. In this paper， by consulting the ancient materia medica， prescription， agronomy， literature and other aspects of the classics， the name， origin， evolution of scientific name， quality， harvesting and processing， functions and indications and others of Malvae Semen were systematically sorted out and verified， so as to provide a basis for the development and utilization of famous classical formulas containing this herb. According to the textual research， Shennong Bencaojing began to use Dongkuizi as the correct name， which was used in the past dynasties， and there were also aliases such as Kuicaizi， Huacai， and Kuizi. Through the original research， it can be seen that Kuicai is the mainstream original plant of Malvae Semen， that is， Malva verticillata var. crispa， the Alcea rosea and M. cathayensis are also used. In modern times， the seeds of Abutilon theophrasti have been passed off as Malvae Semen， while the seeds of M. verticillata var. crispa have rarely been used in medicine. And Abutili Semen has been another medicinal material with different efficacy since the collection of Newly Revised Materia Medica in the Tang dynasty. Since the Ming and Qing dynasties， the cultivation of Kuicai has been decreasing， while A. theophrasti is more common and easy to obtain， and Abutili Semen and Malvae Semen are similar in morphology and confused， which should be corrected. In addition， Malvae Fructus is a Mongolian customary medicinal herb， which is different from the traditional use of seeds in traditional Chinese medicine. Kuicai， as an important vegetable in history， was widely cultivated and gradually shrunk after the Song dynasty， it is now mainly produced in southern provinces. The quality evaluation of Malvae Semen is better for those with dry bodies， full grain， grayish brown color， no mud， and no impurities. The harvesting is generally in the autumn and winter. After drying， it is seeded， sieved peel and impurities， mashed， or slightly stir-fried to yellow-white color with gentle fire. It is sweet， cold and slippery in nature and taste， with the main effects of laxation， diuresis， lactation and elimination of swelling. The efficacy of Abutili Semen is clearing heat and removing toxicity， promoting diuresis and removing nebula， the efficacy is quite different from that of Malvae Semen. Based on the results of textual research， it is suggested that M. verticillata var. crispa should be used as the medicinal source of Malvae Semen in the development of famous classical formulas， the corresponding processing methods should be selected according to the requirements of drug processing in the formulas， while the raw products are recommended to be used if the processing is not specified.

Objective To explore the risk factors of complicating urogenic sepsis after percutaneous nephrolithotripsy(PCNL)and construct a nomogram prediction model.Methods The data of 291 patients with stage 1 PCNL in 940 Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force from October 2016 to October 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into the sepsis group and non-sepsis group according to whether complicating urogenic sepsis after operation.The general data,stone-related data,operation-related data and laboratory detection related data were included.The independent risk factors were screened by the univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis,and the nomogram prediction model was constructed.Results The results of univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age≥60 years old(OR=6.438,95％CI:1.548-26.769),urinary leukocyte 3+(OR=5.651,95％CI:1.614-31.766),urinary nitrite positive(OR=7.117,95％CI:1.190-42.561),operation time≥90 min(OR=4.626,95％CI:1.137-18.817)and perfusion volume 30 L(OR=3.312,95％CI:1.090-10.061)were the independent risk factors of postoperative complicating urogenic sepsis.C-index of the constructed nomogram prediction model in the modeling samples was 0.937,the calibrated C-index was 0.914,and the model predictive efficien-cy was good.Conclusion Age ≥60 years old,urinary leukocyte 3+,urinary nitrite positive,operation time 90 min and perfusion volume ≥30 L are the independent risk factors for complicating urogenic sepsis after PCNL;the constructed nomogram prediction model has a good predictive efficiency for the occurrence of post-operative urogenic sepsis.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of open reduction in the treatment of Tile C pelvic fracture combined with acetabular fracture in a specific sequence.Methods:Retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 53 patients with Tile C type pelvic fracture combined with acetabular fracture from January 2014 to January 2019, and were divided into specific sequence group and non-specific sequence group according to the sequence of intraoperative reduction. A total of 29 cases were observed in the specific sequence group, including 20 males and 9 females; aged 43.8±14.8 years old (18-71 years), and the fractures were reduced in the sequence of "inside and out, then up and down" during the operation. There were 24 cases in the non-specific sequence group, including 14 males and 10 females; aged 44.4±14.7 years old (18-69 years), and fracture reduction was not performed in this sequence during the operation. According to the type of pelvic and acetabular fracture injury, we choose the appropriate position and surgical approach. After open reduction, the fracture was fixed with internal plants. The intraoperative blood loss, operation time, visual analogue scale (VAS) score were compared between the two groups. The quality of fracture reduction was evaluated by Matta score, pelvic fracture function recovery was evaluated by Majeed score, and acetabular fracture was evaluated by hip joint modified Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in general data between the two groups before operation ( P>0.05), which was comparable. The intraoperative blood loss of the specific sequence group and the non-specific sequence group were 1 031.1±513.7 and 1 406.3±738.1 ml, and the operation time was 3.5±1.0 and 4.8±1.4 h; The differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( P<0.05). 53 patients were followed up for 14.8±1.6 months (12-18 months) after operation. The average postoperative VAS scores of specific sequence group and non-specific sequence group were 1.3±1.1 and 1.5±1.3 respectively, and there was no statistically significant difference. The effectiveness of the pelvic fracture Matta score standard was evaluated in the specific sequence group: excellent in 22 cases, good in 5 cases, fair in 2 cases, excellent and good rate was 93.1%; non-specific sequence group excellent in 10 cases, good in 6 cases, fair in 5 cases, poor in 3 cases, excellent and good rate was 66.7%, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Matta score of acetabular fracture: 21 cases were excellent in specific sequence group, 5 cases were good, 3 cases were poor, excellent and good rate was 89.7%; 9 cases were excellent in non-specific sequence group, 8 cases were good, 7 cases were poor, excellent and good rate was 70.8 %, the difference is statistically significant ( P<0.05). The results of the last follow-up pelvic fractures were evaluated by Majeed score: 20 cases were excellent in the specific sequence group, 7 were good, 2 were fair, excellent and good rate was 93.1%; 10 were excellent in the non-specific sequence group, 5 were good, 5 were fair, and 4 were poor, excellent and good rate was 62.5%, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the modified Merle d'Aubigné-Postel score was used to evaluate the efficacy: 20 cases were excellent in the specific sequence group, 5 were good, 4 were fair, the excellent and good rate was 86.2%; In the non-specific sequence group, 9 cases were excellent, 7 cases were good, 4 cases were fair, and 4 cases were poor, excellent and good rate was 66.7%, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). During the follow-up period, none of the patients in the two groups developed fracture nonunion, heterotopic ossification, iatrogenic neurovascular injury, and femoral head necrosis. Trauma arthritis occurred in 4 patients in the non-specific sequence group. Conclusion:"Inside and out, then up and down" sequential reduction of Tile C pelvis combined with acetabular fracture can significantly shorten the operation time and reduce the amount of intraoperative blood loss. The surgical procedure is reasonable, which helps to improve the quality of fracture reduction and promote the functional recovery of patients.

The epidemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a severe and complicated situation. As of February 23, 2020, there have been more than 77,038 confirmed cases of new coronavirus infection nationwide. COVID-19 is highly infectious and has a long incubation period and a variety of clinical manifestations, which has a great impact on society and economy and also seriously affects the daily operation of hepatobiliary surgery. This article discusses and recommends the medical protection measures required for outpatient, ward, and operation of hepatobiliary surgery, in order to reduce the risk of nosocomial infection in hepatobiliary surgery during the COVID-19 epidemic.

Objective:To retrospectively summarize and evaluate the efficiency and safety of percutaneous ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for adrenal metastasis (AM) from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:From October 2009 to September 2018, 16 patients with AM from HCC who underwent percutaneous RFA in the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University were enrolled in the study. The complete ablation and local tumor progression rates were elevated, and the side effects and complications were summarized.Results:The median ablation time of AM was 16 min. The complete ablation rate was 87.5% (14/16). After the follow-up period of 3 to 55 months, among the patients with complete ablation, there were 3 patients were detected local tumor progression (LTP), the LTP rate was 21.4% (3/14). As for the side effects and complications, 3 patients were diagnosed as hypertension crisis (3/16, 18.8%), 2 showed reduced heart rate and 1 of them exhibited frequent premature ventricular contraction which resulted in termination of ablation. There was no ablation-related death or adrenal failure.Conclusions:Percutaneous US-guided RFA is safe and effective in the treatment of AM originated from HCC.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has high morbidity and mortality rates worldwide, and due to the complexity of the development of HCC, the management strategy for HCC has not been completely unified. During the past decade, the treatment of HCC has developed into a multidisciplinary and multimodality therapy centered on surgical operation. Besides hepatectomy and liver transplantation, ablation therapy is another radical treatment, and at present, it can be used as the first-line treatment regimen for HCC patients who have a tumor diameter of ＜3 cm and cannot undergo liver transplantation. Transarterial chemoembolization is the preferred treatment for advanced HCC not suitable for radical treatment. Molecular targeted therapy is mainly used in patients who are diagnosed with advanced HCC or progress to advanced HCC after treatment failures. Cellular immunotherapy is a new treatment for HCC and can help patients with progressive HCC to achieve good remission rate and survival benefit. A deep understanding of the features of each treatment method for HCC, development of individualized treatment regimens, and rational multimodality therapy for HCC can help to improve the overall therapeutic outcome of HCC.

Lipedema is secondary to local fat deposition, a disease characterized by the symmetric thickening of lower limbs, mostly occurs in women, especially in adolescence and pregnancy. In its early stage, it could be easily confused with lymphedema. Extensive literature review on primary fat edema in recent years, as well as a summary of the clinical symptoms and signs and diagnosis and treatment of lipedema were conducted, so as to provide a useful reference for clinicians.

Objective To approach the predictive value of continuous monitoring end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (PETCO2) on the outcome of in-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and explored the indicators of termination of resuscitation. Methods A secondary analysis of a multicenter observational study data was conducted. The screening aim was adult non-traumatic in-hospital CPR patients whose PETCO2were recorded within 30 minutes of CPR. Clinical information was reviewed. The mean PETCO2in restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and non-ROSC patients was recorded. The outcome of CPR was continuously assessed by PETCO2≤ 10 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) for 1, 3, 5, 8, 10 minutes. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted, and the predictive value of PETCO2≤ 10 mmHg for different duration on the outcome of CPR was evaluated. Results A total of 467 recovery patients, including 419 patients with complete recovery were screened. Patients who were out-of-hospital resuscitation, non-adults, traumatic injury, had no PETCO2value, PETCO2value failed to explained the clinical conditions, or patients had not monitored PETCO2within 30 minutes of resuscitation were excluded, and finally 120 adult patients with non-traumatic in-hospital resuscitation were enrolled in the analysis. The mean PETCO2in 50 patients with ROSC was significantly higher than that of 70 non-ROSC patients [mmHg: 17 (11, 27) vs. 9 (6, 16), P < 0.01]. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under ROC curve (AUC) of PETCO2during the resuscitation for predicting recovery outcome was 0.712 [95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.689-0.735]; when the cut-off was 10.5 mmHg, the sensitivity was 57.8%, and the specificity was 78.0%, the positive predictive value (PPV) was 84.6%, and negative predictive value (NPV) was 46.9%. The duration of PETCO2≤ 10 mmHg was used for further analysis, which showed that with PETCO2≤10 mmHg in duration, the prediction of the sensitivity of the patients failed to recover decreased from 58.2% to 28.2%, but specificity increased from 39.4% to 100%; PPV increased from 40% to 100%, and NPV decreased from 57.5% to 34.2%. Conclusion For adult non-traumatic in-hospital CPR patients, continuous 10 minutes PETCO2≤10 mmHg may be an indicate of termination of CPR.
