Objective To explore the main factors of hypokalemia in the patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI.Method The clinical data of ninety-six patients with myocardial infarction after PCI were analyzed to look into the reasons for hypokalemia.Results Fifty-seven patients contracted hypokalemia,with a rate of 59.4%.The complication was cured by dietetic supplementation of potassium,oral supplementation of potassium,and potassium supplementation by atomization inhalation and intravenous infusion.The reasons for hypokelemia included inadequate input,over-ejectment,abnormal distribution of potassium and use of contrast agent.Conclusions Patients with myocardial infarction after PCI are more susceptible to hypokalemia.Therefore,it is a need to correct hypokelemia by means of potassium supplementation.

Objective To investigate the different distribution of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and CD8+T cells in the local immune microenvironment of mucosal malignant melanoma and cutaneous malignant melanoma, and analyze the relationship between the two indicators and the prognosis of patients. Methods Immunohistochemistry staining was used to assess the ex?pression of Foxp3+Tregs and CD8+T cells in tumor microenvironment of 58 patients with malignant melanoma. The correlation between two factors, clinicopathological characteristics, and prognosis were analyzed. Results There is no correlation be?tween the expression of Foxp3 and CD8. The number of Foxp3+Tregs was significantly higher in mucosa malignant melanoma than that in cutaneous malignant melanoma (t=2.648, P=0.011). The proportion of Foxp3highTregs was significantly higher in pa?tients with tumor diameter≥3 cm, lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis than that in patients with tumor diameter<3 cm, no lymph node metastasis and no distant metastasis (P<0.05). In addition, in patients with ulceration that proportion was significantly higher in CD8high group than that in patients without ulceration (33.3%vs 5.9%, P<0.05). The median progres?sion-free surial (PFS) was 12 months in Foxp3high group, which was significantly longer than that of Foxp3low group (31 months, P<0.05). The median PFS was significantly higher in CD8high group (25 months) than that of CD8low group (12 months, P<0.05). Subgroup analysis showed that the median PFS was 7 months in Foxp3high CD8low group, which was significantly lower than that of Foxp3highCD8high group (25 months) and Foxp3lowCD8low group (18 months, P=0.003). Univariate analysis showed that median PFS was different in patients with different tumor location, different number of Foxp3+Treg, different number of CD8+T cells, and distant metastases. Conclusion The number of Tregs is closely associated with metastasis in patients with malig?nant melanoma. Compared with cutaneous malignant melanoma, our results indicate that the poor prognosis of mucosal malig?nant melanoma may be associated with the infiltration of more Tregs.

Objective:To summarize the midterm to long-term outcomes and experiences of endovascular treatment (ET) of spontaneous isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection (SISMAD).Methods:The clinical data of 31 SISMAD patients from Jan 2011 to Dec 2019 treated with ET was retrospectively analyzed.Results:Successful ET was achieved in 29 patients with a technical success rate of 93.5%. A total of 36 self-expandable bare stents were planted in 28 patients and plain old balloon angioplastry (POBA) was performed in 1 patient. Abdominal pain disappeared within 24 hours in 89.3% of the patients after stenting. The rate of perioperative complication was 3.2%. There was no SMA dissection rupture bleeding, nor perioperative death occurred. The mean follow-up time was 53.5 (range, 6 to 110) months. There was no dissecting aneurysm formation, no SMA rupture and bleeding, and no stent rupture during the follow-up. The post ET 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year free from reintervention rate were 100%, 100%, and 91.7%, respectively.Conclusions:ET for SISMAD is safe and effective with satisfactory perioperative and midterm to long-term outcomes.

We integrate web-based learning with team based learning,which is called WTBL method (Web-based and team-based Learning). WTBL method is constructed and applied to the teaching practice of core curriculum group courses of clinical medicine. We build some small private online courses. The students can preview online and do the case discussions by teamwork in class. The application of WTBL teaching method has realized the flipping of classroom, and helps to enhance students' self-learning ability and teamwork ability.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of rocuronium on limb ischemia-reperfusion injury in the patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.Methods:Ninety patients of both sexes, aged 50-80 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, with body mass index<30 kg/cm 2, scheduled for elective unilateral knee arthroplasty under general anesthesia combined with femoral nerve block from January 2019 to October 2019, were divided into 3 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: normal saline group (group S), rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg group (group RL) and rocuronium 1.2 mg/kg group (group RH). Anesthesia was induced by intravenous injection of midazolam, etomidate, sufentanil and rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg (group RL) or 1.2 mg/kg (group RH) or equal volume of normal saline (group S). Mechanical ventilation was performed after placement of laryngeal mask to maintain P ETCO 2 35-45 mmHg.Femoral nerve block was performed under ultrasound guidance.Anesthesia was maintained by inhaling 1% sevoflurane and intravenous infusion of propofol and remifentanil to maintain entropy index at 40-60 during operation.Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was performed with sufentanil after surgery to maintain visual analogue scale score ≤ 4 points.When visual analogue scale score was > 4, flurbiprofen axetil 100 mg was intravenously injected.The vastus medialis muscle at the edge of the incision was obtained at 60 min after inflation to determine the expression of dystrophin by immunohistochemistry.Arterial blood samples were collected immediately after inflation of the tourniquet, at 60 min after inflation, and at 5 and 30 min after deflation for determination of the serum malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations by the thiobarbituric acid method.The effective pressing times of the analgesic pump and consumption of sufentanil and flurbiprofen axetil were recorded within 48 h after operation.The occurrence of responses to tourniquet and residual muscle relaxation during recovery from anesthesia, the first postoperative off-bed time and postoperative length of hospital stay were recorded.The thigh girth was measured before operation and at 24 and 48 h after operation, and the difference after and before operation was calculated.The range of motion of knees of the operated limb and tourniquet-related complications in the early postoperative period (3 days) and in the long-term postoperative period (3 months) were recorded. Results:Compared with group S, the expression of dystrophin in skeletal muscle was significantly up-regulated, the concentration of serum MDA was decreased at 30 min after deflation, and the difference in thigh girth at 24 and 48 h after operation was decreased in group RH, and the range of motion of knees was significantly increased at 3 days and 3 months after operation, and the first postoperative off-bed time was shortened in group RH and group RL ( P<0.05). Compared with group RL, the range of motion of knees was significantly increased at 3 days and 3 months after operation, and the first postoperative off-bed time was shortened in group RH ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of responses to tourniquet, postoperative length of hospital stay, effective pressing times of the analgesic pump, postoperative consumption of sufentanil and flurbiprofen axetil, and the incidence of tourniquet-related complications in the early and long-term postoperative periods among the three groups ( P>0.05). No residual muscle relaxation was found during recovery from anesthesia in three groups. Conclusion:Rocuronium 1.2 mg/kg can reduce limb ischemia-reperfusion injury in the patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.

Taking " harmony of body and spirit" as the theoretical core in Huangdi Neijing and the functional nature and executive structure of the five emotions system as clues, this paper explores and analyzes the relevant theories of the five emotions system in ancient Chinese medicine literature. It is found that the five emotions system is a highly ordered and integrated collection of five functional states. It often resides in the five zang viscera, it operates between the meridians and the xuanfu through the elevation and movement of the qi, and it is the pivotal point for the operation of the qi and blood of the organism, the interactive conduction of information, and the unity of form, emotion, and qi. Therefore, this paper starts from the point of view of system science. It is proposed that the primordial spirit exercises control over the five emotions and the five emotions provide nutrition to the primordial spirit, and that the two are not " islands of information" but have a dynamic and hierarchical internal connection. The executive structure of the five emotions system, namely, the meridians, the xuanfu, and the five zang viscera, is the pivot, and it is recognized that the operation of the five emotions system is a process with self-organizing characteristics and orderly and eternal motion. We think of the qi, blood, ying, and essence as the basis of occurrence, the meridian as the execution channel, and the xuanfu as the place for the spiritual mechanism to enter and exit; the five zang viscera serve as a dwelling place, and ministerial fire serves as the source of energy. This paper serves as reference for future research related to the executive structure of the five emotions system of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To evaluate the imaging features of CT scan in patients with COVID-19.Methods:Clinical data of 56 patients with COVID-19 from January 17 to 19, 2020 admitted to Wenzhou Central Hospital and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical manifestations, lung imaging characteristics and treatment outcomes of patients with different severity were analyzed with SAS software.Results:Fever (92.8%, 52/56), dry cough (75.0%, 42/56) and asthenia (58.9%, 33/56) were the first symptoms in most of the patients; some patients also had shortness of breath (25.0%, 14/56) and pharyngeal pain (10.7%, 6/56). Chest high-resolution CT scan showed that in 42 moderate patients, ground glass-like high-density shadows in the lung were observed in 30 cases (71.4%) ; localized plaque consolidation shadows and bronchial inflation signs were observed in 10 cases (23.8%). In 12 severe patients, 11 had high-density patches involving multiple lung lobes (≥3). In 2 critically ill patients the patches and stripes involving the entire lung were observed; and cord-like high-density shadow, local consolidation and fibrosis were also shown.Conclusion:The multiple ground-glass changes outside the lungs are early imaging manifestations of COVID-19 patients. The increase in pulmonary lobe consolidation and fibrosis may indicate the disease progression, and the degree of lung consolidation and fibrosis is closely related to the disease severity.
