Objective To evaluate the accuracy of different methods for estimating blood loss during burn wound excixion and skin grafting in pediatric patients with severe burn. Methods Twenty pediatric patients of both sexes aged 7 days-8 yr weighing 4-22 kg undergoing burn wound excision and skin grafting were enrolled in this clinical study. Two methods were used for estimating blood loss during operation: Method Ⅰ: surgical surface area (SSA). MethodⅡ: the product of SSA and blood volume (BV). Total blood loss was calculated: total blood loss = BV ( Hct0 - Hctx ) ÷ Hct0 + Tx. Hct0 =Hct before operation. Hctx =Hct at the end of operation. Tx =total amount of blood transfusion. Results The correlation between the total blood loss and SSA was 0.776. The correlation between the total blood loss and the product of SSA and BV was 0.889. The difference was statistically significant. Conclusion The product of SSA and BV is more accurate in estimating blood loss during burn wound excision and skin grafting in children with severe burn.

Based on a review of currently published 40 papers ( 20 published in recent 5 years, 20 published in recent 10 years) on gold nanoparticles for cancer radiotherapy, the general characteristics, theoretical studies, in vitro experiment, in vivo experiment,and the clinical prospects of targeted radiotherapy with gold nanoparticles were reviewed. Three key aspects guarantee further investigation for the full understanding of the radiosensitization effect of gold nanoparticles:the cellular localization and tissue distribution of nanoparticles and influential factors;the micro dose enhancement effect of gold nanoparticles, and the molecular biological mechanism. More cross disciplinary collaboration, research, development and translation are needed before gold nanoparticles are put into clinical trials.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of color Doppler ultrasound images of breast lymphoma, and to improve the coincidence rate of ultrasound diagnosis.Methods:The color Doppler ultrasound images characteristics of 24 lesions in 21 patients with breast lymphoma in Fujian Cancer Hospital from June 2011 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, and the diagnostic coincidence rate was counted.Results:All the patients were female, 18 cases were unilateral, 3 cases were bilateral. ALL cases were confirmed as primary or secondary breast lymphoma by coarse needle biopsy or surgical pathology. Pathological types included 18 cases (85.7%) of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, 1 case of anaplastic large cell lymphoma kinase (ALK)-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma, 1 case of Burkitt lymphoma, 1 case of Burkitt lymphoma or unclassifiable lymphoma with features intermediated between diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and Burkitt lymphoma. The maximum diameter of the lesions was (5.7±2.1) cm (range 1.4-16.0 cm), and all lesions were solid in ultrasound images; 19 lesions (79.2%) were mass-type and 5 lesions (20.8%) were diffuse. According to the characteristics of internal echo, the lesions were divided into hypoechogenicity (2 lesions, 8.3%), hyperechogenicity packed with hypoechogenicity (12 lesions, 50.0%), and hyperechogenicity interweaved with hypoechogenicity (10 lesions, 41.7%). According to Adler semi-quantitative method, the blood flow of the lesions was 3 lesions (12.5%) in grade Ⅰ, 6 lesions (25.0%) in grade Ⅱ, and 15 lesions (62.5%) in grade Ⅲ. The detection rate of lesions by color Doppler ultrasound was 100.0% (24/24), but the diagnostic coincidence rate was only 41.7% (10/24).Conclusions:Most of the breast lymphoma is diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and the lesions can be effectively screened by color Doppler ultrasound, but the diagnostic coincidence rate is low. Most of the breast lymphoma grows in the form of mass with abundant internal blood flow signals. When the ultrasound image of the breast lesion is hyperechoic packed or interweaved with hypoechoic, the possibility of breast lymphoma should be considered.

Objective To explore the personality type characteristic of children with cough variant asthma(CVA),so as to supply an individual treatment strategy.Methods With the aid of GONG Yao-xian revised Junior Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (JEPQ) by trained professionals,the personality of 65 cases of CVA children (CVA group) and 100 cases of common cold children (control group) was tested and evaluated.Then based on the dimension value P,E,N,L points of the curriculum,personality of orientation was evaluated.Results There was no significant difference in the P,N,L scores of JEPQ between CVA group and control group [(48.84 ± 10.26) scores vs.(48.15 ± 10.98) scores,(50.31 ± 10.49) scores vs.(49.25 ± 9.08) scores,(47.07 ± 9.31) scores vs.(47.20 ± 10.57) scores](P＞ 0.05).The E score of JEPQ in CVA group was lower than that in control group [(44.15 ± 9.29) scores vs.(50.25 ± 8.63) scores],and there was significant difference (P=0.000).Conclusions The CVA children have introverted character,and there is a tendency to form a personality type of conditional reflex.When medicine is taking,the individual personality type should be taken into consideration during the course of therapy.Appropriate mental hints may be helpful for medical therapy and make it a lot easier.

Objective To investigate the effect of acupuncture plus Chinese herbal medication on plasma endothelin (ET-1) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in child patients with mesenteric lymphadenitis.Methods One hundred and eighty child patients with mesenteric lymphadenitis were randomly allocated to groups A, B and C, 60 cases each. Group A received acupuncture at Zusanli and pricking Sifeng points plus oral administration of Wudang Babao Zijinding; group B, oral administration of amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium granules; group C, oral administration of Wudang Babao Zijinding alone. ET-1 and CGRP contents were measured in the three groups before and after treatment.Results There were statistically significant pre-/post-treatment differences in ET-1 and CGRP contents in group A (P<0.01). There were statistically significant post-treatment differences in ET-1 and CGRP contents between group A and group B or C (P<0.01).Conclusions Acupuncture plus Chinese herbal medication is an effective way to treat mesenteric lymphadenitis in children. It can regulate ET-1 and CGRP in the patients.

Objective To assess the value of preoperative MRI in predicting the incidence of cement leakage into adjacent discs during percutaneous vertebral augmentation (PVA) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF).Methods Clinical and radiological characteristics of 127 patients who were treated with PVA for OVCF were analyzed retrospec tively.The following clinical data of these patients were analyzed,including gender,age,location of treated vertebral body and surgical approach.The image features of endplate injury,fracture line extended to the endplate,adjacent intervertebral dick injury and intravertebral cleft were evaluated on the preoperative MRI.The incidence of cement leakage into the adjacent disc were compared for the above factors with statistical methods.Results Totally 127 patients were enrolled in our study,including 179 treated vertebral bodies,358 endplates and 341 adjacent intervertebral discs.The incidence of intradiscal cement leakage was 57.73％ (56/97) in endplate injury sign,60.98％ (25/41) in fracture line extended to endplate sign,35.91％(51/142) in adjacent discs injury sign and 55.56％(20/36) inintravertebral cleft sign.The differences were statistically significant on preoperative MRI in patients with the above signs compared to those who had not (P＜0.05).The incidence of intradiscal cement leakage in percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) and percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) were 26.67％(16/60) and 42.86％(51/119),respectively,which was significant different (P=0.035).For bone cement volume ≤ 5 ml vertebral bodies,the incidence of intradiscal cement leakage was 31.19 ％ (34/109),lower than bone cement volume ＞ 5 ml vertebral bodies (47.14％ [33/70],P=0.031).There was no statistically significant association between intradiscal cement leakage and age,gender and location of treated vertebral body (P＞0.05).Conclusion Preoperative MRI can predict the leakage of bone cement into adjacent discs effectively during PVA.The PKP and the lower volume of bone cement injection can reduce the risk of intradiscal cement leakage.
