Objective To investigate the epidemiology of patients in malignant hematologic neoplasms with fungemia and provide evidence for clinical therapy. Methods 23 cases of patients of malignant hematologic neoplasms with fungemia concurrent clinical material, the dangerous factor, the fungus colony classification as well as the treatment and the prognosis were carried on the review analysis. Results Each patient with fungemia was seriously ill with two or more predisposing factors;Candida ablicans accounted for 47%;the rate of candida parapsilosi, candida tropicalis were 17%, 12%. In the 23 cases of patients,13 cases of patients cure (56.5%), 8 cases of patients died (34.7%);2 cases of patients give up (8.6%). Conclusion Fungemia in the patients of malignant hematologic neoplasms usually occurred with predisposing factors. Important measures to reduce mortality include curing the underlying diseases, emphasis on mornitoring fungal pathogen and susceptibility tests, early diagnosis and compliance medication principles.

Objective To investigate the incidence and associated factors of rotator cuff injuries in patients surgically treated for proximal humerus fracture.Methods A retrospective investigation was conducted in the patients over 40 years old who had been surgically treated for proximal humeral fracture from April 10th 2017 to December 1st 2017 at Department of Traumatic Orthopaedics,Beijing Jishuitan Hospital.Intraoperative direct visualization was used to collect their clinical data concerning rotator cuff injuries in combination with proximal humeral fracture.All the data were analyzed to find the incidence,gender ratio,age distribution and fracture type distribution concerning rotator cuff injuries.Results A total of 143 eligible patients were included in this investigation.Their average age was 61.95 years and their male-female ratio 1:2.3.The incidence was 46.2％ (66/143) for all the rotator cuff injuries in proximal humerus fracture and 23.1％ (33/143) just for rotator cuff tears.There were no significant differences in age,male to female ratio or distribution of Neer fracture type between patients with rotator cuff injury and those without rotator cuff injury (P ＞ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the age and or distribution of Neer fracture type between patients with rotator cuff tear and patients without rotator cuff tear (P ＞ 0.05).The proportion of females in patients with rotator cuff tears (84.8％,28/33) was significantly higher than that in patients with no rotator cuff tears (63.6％,21/33) (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference between different age groups of the patients in incidence of combined rotator cuff injury (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Concomitant rotator cuff injuries are relatively common in patients over 40 years old with a proximal humerus fracture.About half of the injuries may be simple wear or wear plus degeneration while the other half rotator cuff tear happening mostly in female patients.The incidence of concomitant rotator cuff injury may increase with the age of the patients with a proximal humerus fracture.

Objective:To study the learning curve in laparoscopic left lateral hepatic sectionectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 62 consecutive patients who underwent left lateral hepatic sectionectomy by a single operator from February 2015 to May 2022 in General Hospital of Northern Theater Command were retrospectively analyzed. There were 22 males and 40 females, with mean ±s.d. of (50.7±11.7) years. The learning curve was depicted and evaluated by using the cumulative summation test. The general information, operation and postoperative indicators of the growth level group and the master level group were compared.Results:The average operation time of the 62 consecutive subjects was (172.9±70.1) minutes. Intraoperative blood loss was 100 (50, 200) ml. Two patients were converted to open hepatectomy. Clavien-Dindo grade I postoperative complications occurred in 20 patients (32.3%), with grade Ⅱ in 1 patient (1.6%) and grade Ⅲb in another patient (1.6%). The learning curve reached its highest point on the 20th patient by using the cumulative summation test. The study subjects were then assigned into the growth level group (patient 1-20) and the master level group (patient 21-62). The master level group had a significantly wider spread of patient age [(52.9±11.0) years vs (46.1±11.9) years], decreased operation time [(146.8±55.6) min vs (227.9±66.7) min], shortened drainage tube removal time [4(3, 5) d vs 6(4, 7) d] and decreased postoperative hospital stay [5(5, 7) d vs 6.5(4, 9) d] (all P<0.05) when compared with the growth level group. Conclusion:Left lateral hepatic sectionectomy was safe and feasible, and a single operator went through a learning curve of 20 patients before he/she could master the operation more proficiently.

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of EBV related post-transplantation lymphoproliferative diseases (PTLD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Methods The clinical data of 262 cases of allo-HSCT were retrospectively,and EBV-associated PTLD occurred in 9 cases after transplantation with a incidence of 3.44％ (9/262).Of the 9 patients,6 were males and 3 were females,with a median age of 19 years;the primary disease was severe aplastic anemia (SAA) in 6 cases,acute myeloid leukemia in 2 cases and chronic myeloid leukemia in 1 case Results The occurring median time of EBV associated PTLDs was 58 d (44-271 d).The clinical manifestations of most PTLD recipients were recurrent fever with no reaction to any antibiotics,antiadoncus and lymphadenectasis.Of the 9 recipients,6 cases obtained pathological diagnosis,and 3 cases clinical diagnosis.Superficial lymph node and central nervous system (CNS) involved in 8 and 4 recipients,respectively;lung and bone involvement occurred in 2 recipients and 1 case,respectively.The median number of peripheral blood EBV DNA in 9 recipients was 7.21 × 104 copies/ml (6.37 × 103-4.56 × 105 copies/ml) at the time of onset.EBV DNA in peripheral blood was positive in only one ease of 4 CNS recipients.Among 9 recipients after therapy,4 cases were cured and 4 cases were partially effective,and 1 recipient was ineffective After follow-up for 28 months (2-48 months),6 cases died,and 3 survived.Conclusion Incidence of EBV related PTLD in SAA patients undergoing allo-HSCT is relatively higher than leukemia recipients.Reduction or withdrawal of immunosuppressant,Rituximab and low dose of DLI is effective treatment.

Objective:To study the variation in activity in patient′s body with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) treated with 131I and external dose level, analyze the relationship between the both, and estimate the correction factor for the dose equivalent rate for the patients with residual activity of 400 MBq. Methods:A total of 43 DTC patients who received 131I therapy for the first time after total thyroidectomy were studied. The dose was 1 850-3 700 MBq and average dose was (2 405±777) MBq. The measurements of residual activity in patient′s body and of dose equivalent rate at 0.3, 1 and 3 m in front of the patients were performed at 2, 6, 20, 22, 24, 27, 30, 44, 46, 48, 54, 68 and 72 h after administration of 131I. Results:The residual activity in patient′s body after 131I therapy varied with time as a function of A= A0 (1.033 16e -0.062 4t+ 0.017 17). It can be estimated that the effective half-life of DTC patients treated with thyroid remnant 131I ablation therapy is 12.19 h. It needs only 26.4-38.9 h to reduce the internal activity to the 400 MBq. The functions of variation with time of normalized dose equivalent rate at 0.3, 1, and 3 m away from patients were: H· 0.3=127.220 7e -0.054 8t+ 3.765 71; H· 1=30.225 8e -0.064 4t+ 0.824 67; and H· 3=4.161 9e -0.061 5t+ 0.167 97, respectively. There was a positive correlation between residual activity and dose equivalent rate at 1 m ( r=0.982, P<0.05), and the function is H· 1=0.025 A+ 1.245. When residual activities in DTC patient′s body were 1 000, 700 and 400 MBq, the corresponding dose equivalent rates at 1 m from patients were 26.2, 18.7 and 11.2 μSv/h, respectively. The correction factors for dose equivalent rate at 0.3, 1 and 3 m from patients with 400 MBq were 0.25, 0.49 and 0.70, respectively. Conclusions:DTC patients with administration of 131I activity below 3 700 MBq need only to be hospitalized for two days to reach the discharge standards. When the residual activity in DTC patient′s body drops to 400 MBq, the dose equivalent rate at 1 m is far less than 25 μSv/h. Simply using the point source formula to estimate the dose equivalent rate around the patient will result in overestimation. Therefore, the correction factor used in the estimation of radiation doses to patients by using the formula needs to be further studied so as to make the model-based estimated result more consistent with the actual situation.

Objective To detect the radiation of ¹³¹I in treatment site of a grade A tertiary hospital. Methods A total of 25 patients with thyroid cancer were administrated ¹³¹I at a total dose of 82880 MBq. After administration, the ambient dose equivalent rate of the ward was detected with X- and γ-ray detectors. After patient discharge, surface contamination of the ward was detected with α/β surface contamination meter. During patient hospitalization and on the day of discharge, air samples were collected from ¹³¹I treatment site and office area. The air samples were measured using a HPGe γ-ray spectrometer and the concentration of ¹³¹I in air was calculated. Results The ambient dose equivalent rate in the ward ranged from 0.15 to 0.46 μSv/h. Before ward cleaning, surface contamination ranged from 0.53 to 40.1 Bq/cm² and the highest value was recorded on the toilet. Within 4 h after administration, the concentrations of ¹³¹I in air in treatment site and the corridor of the office area were 1.74 Bq/m³ and 0.66 Bq/m³, respectively. The ventilation air flow rate in the treatment site was 0.50 m/s. Ventilation decreased the concentration of ¹³¹I in air by 29.7%, 79.7%, and 53.3% compared with the previous day during hospitalization and on the day of discharge. Conclusion The radiation of external exposure of ¹³¹I in the treatment site is low and the shielding is effective. Before ward cleaning, the surface contamination is lower than the required limits except for the toilet. Ventilation is the primary way to reduce the concentration of ¹³¹I in air.
