The high intra- and inter-tumor heterogeneity of gastric cancer leads to a great difference in the immunotherapy efficacy and the prognosis among patients. Several biomarkers, including programmed death-ligand 1, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, the features of tumor microenvironment, the peripheral blood inflammatory markers and Claudin18.2 have predictive value in the immunotherapy efficacy and the prognosis of gastric cancer patients, which might help the clinicians find the potential patients who will benefit from immunotherapy, and achieve the goal of precision medicine.

Objective:To study the efficacy and influencing factors of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in the treatment of cholesterol gallstone, so as to provide reference for the treatment of cholesterol gallstone by internal medicine.Methods:From March 1, 2017 to March 31, 2018, at outpatient department of gastroenterology of 9 Beijing medical centers including Peking University People′s Hospital, the Sixth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital, Beijing Huaxin Hospital, PLA Rocket Force Characteristic Medical Center, Peking University Aerospace Center Hospital, Beijing Youan Hospital of Capital Medical University and Beijing Tiantan Hospital of Capital Medical University, Beijing Tongren Hospital of Capital Medical University, and Beijing Shijitan Hospital of Capital Medical University, the data of patients with cholesterol gallstone treated by UDCA were collected. The inclusion criteria were that the largest diameter of stone was ≤10 mm and the stone was not detected under X-ray. The treatment plan was taking UDCA orally for 6 months at a dose of 10 mg·kg -1·d -1. The basic information of patients, the ultrasound examination results before treatment and 6 months after treatment, and scores of biliary abdominal pain and dyspepsia symptom were collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of the efficacy in gallstrone dissolution by UDCA, and Wilcoxon signed rank test was used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 215 patients were enrolled. The complete dissolution rate of gallstone was 19.5% (42/215) and partial dissolution rate was 50.7% (109/215), and the total effective rate was 70.2% (151/215). The complete dissolution rate of sandy stone was significantly higher than that of lumped stones (37.0%(17/46) vs. 14.8%(25/169); OR=3.377, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.621 to 7.035, P=0.001). In lumped stones, the complete dissolution rate of the stones with diameter ≤5 mm was significantly higher than that of the stones with diameter >5 mm (37.5%(9/24) vs. 11.0%(16/145); OR=4.837, 95% CI 1.823 to 12.839, P=0.002). The complete dissolution rate of patients with higher body mass index ( OR=0.872, 95% CI 0.764 to 0.995, P=0.043) and longer disease course ( OR=0.942, 95% CI 0.912 to 0.973, P<0.001) was low. The results of multivariate logistic analysis indicated that long disease course of gallstone ( OR=0.940, 95% CI 0.908 to 0.974, P=0.001), rough gallbladder wall ( OR=0.438, 95% CI 0.200 to 0.962, P=0.040) and lumped stone ( OR=0.236, 95% CI 0.101 to 0.550, P=0.001) were independent risk factors of influencing the efficacy of stone dissolution by UDCA. As for lumped stones, the independent risk factors included long disease course of gallstone ( OR=0.926, 95% CI 0.877 to 0.978, P=0.006) and stone diameter >5 mm ( OR=0.142, 95% CI 0.043 to 0.470, P=0.001). After 6 months of UDCA treatment, score of biliary abdominal pain decreased from 0 (0 to 6) to 0 (0 to 0) and the score of dyspepsia symptom decreased from 1 (0 to 2) to 0 (0 to 0), and the differences between before treatment and after treatment were statistically significant ( Z=-8.50, and -9.13, both P<0.001). Conclusions:UDCA has a certain efficacy in cholesterol gallstone dissolution and can ease biliary abdominal pain and dyspepsia symptom. Long disease course of gallstone, rough gallbladder wall and stone diameter >5 mm are independent risk factors of poor efficacy in gallstone dissolution by UDCA.

This article introduces the health management service specification for a chronic patient population. The concept of this specification comes from the whole process of people-centered and integrated health management of the chronic patient population. It is also based on the World Health Organization′s integrated chronic patient population management model. The completion of the specification has gone through several rounds of expert discussion in related fields in China. The contents include seven key links: suspect selection, clinical diagnosis, health assessment, intervention plan development, intervention plan implementation, follow-up, and health reassessment. It also includes establishing a professional team and developing a support system and mechanism of financing, compensation, and incentives. The specification aims at integrating regional health resources through standardizing service technology and scientific management concepts. It would help to improve the efficiency and quality of health management of chronic patient population in China, thereby reducing the economic burden of chronic diseases for patients and their families, and achieving the goal of improving residents′ health.

Objective To evaluate the clinical characterisitics of polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) patients with acromelic gangrene,and to improve the understanding of this disease by clinicians.Methods The clinical and laboratory data of PAN patients with acromelic gangrene admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) between November 1986 to October 2016 were collected and summarized.According to the ratio of 1∶2,PAN patients without acromelic gangrene during the same period were randomly selected and compared with patients with acromelic gangrene.The comparison of the demographic data,system involvement,laboratory and other auxiliary examination results,the treatment were included in this study.All data were analyzed by SPSS 19.0 statistical software.T test,Mann Whitney U test,x2 test were used for statistical analyses.Results Among 204 PAN patients admitted to PUMCH during this period,22 cases were complicated with gangrenes.In PAN patients with gangrenes,-male/female ratio was 4.5/1,the mean age was (43±19) years,and the disease duration (from onset of disease to gangrene) was 3.5 months (ranged from 1 week to 20 years).Simple finger gangrenes occurred in 7 cases(32％),simple toe gangrenes in 8 cases (36％),both gangrenes in 7 cases (32％).In the involvements of limb arteries,15 cases (68％) were posterior tibial artery involvement,12 cases (55％) were anterior tibial artery involvement,10 cases (45％) were radial artery involvement,7 cases (32％) were ulnar artery involvement,5 cases (23％) were peroneal artery involvement,5 cases (23％) were superficial femoral artery involvement,4 cases (18％) were dorsal foot artery involvement,3 cases (14％) were popliteal artery involvement,1 case (5％) was anterior interosseous artery involvement.There were significant difference in PAN patients with and without acromelic gangrene as patients with acromelic gangrene were more prone to arthritis/pain (45％ vs 2％;x2=16.71,P＜0.01),new-onset hypertension (41％ vs 7％;x2=9.28,P＜0.01),intestinal bleeding/perforation (41％ vs 14％;x2=6.21,P=0.01),increased eosinophils (55％ vs 7％;x2=19.02,P＜0.01),artery (91％ vs 27％;x2=23.78,P＜0.01) involvement in extremities,head and neck (41％ vs 18％;x2=3.96,P=0.05),arteriovenous thrombosis (27％ vs 2％;x2=7.21,P=0.007),glucocorticoid pulse therapy (73％ vs 14％;x2=23.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion PAN patients with acromelic gangrene have significant increase of eosinophils and widespread internal organ ischemia.Aggressive treatment should be taken in these patients.

OBJECTIVETo explore the acupoint electrosensitivity and regularity for assisting the clinical diagnosis and treatment so as to improve the clinical therapeutic effects.

METHODSBy means of the computer retrieval (CBMdisc, CNKI, VIP, WanFang, PubMed and EMBASE) and manual retrieval, the relevant literature on acupoint electrosensitivity was reviewed and the modern literature database of acupoint electrosensitivity was established. Using bibliometric, the relations were analyzed among the detected indexes, acupoints, meridians and disorders in the conditions of acupoint electrosensitivity, and the potential regularity was explored.

RESULTSThe general detection indexes of acupoint electrosensitivity were resistance, inertia area, volt-ampere area, electric conduction quantity, electric potential, electric current and capacitance. The electrosensitive points included meridian points, auricular points and extraordinary points. Among those points, the electrosensitivity easily occurred at the special points.

CONCLUSIONThe acupoint electrosensitivity is mainly reflected on the electrical impedance and volt-ampere characteristics. The relative specificity exists between acupoint electrosensitivity and disorders. In clinical practice, detecting acupoint electrosensitivity may assist the diagnosis and instruct acupoint selection to improve the clinical therapeutic effects.

Objective To understand the distribution of water iodine in the external environment of Shanxi Province, and to provide a basis for redefining and implementation of scientific iodine supplementation in iodine deficiency, iodine adequate or iodine high areas. Methods In 2012 - 2016, administrative villages (neighborhood committees)in 119 counties(cities,districts)in 11 cities of Shanxi Province were selected as the investigation units, and 1 to 5 drinking water samples were collected. Water iodine content was detected using arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry. Areas standard was designated: water iodine content < 10 μg/L as iodine deficiency areas, > 100 μg/L as iodine high areas. Results A total of 26 213 administrative villages (neighborhood committees) of 1 362 townships (towns) of 119 counties (cities, districts) were surveyed, covering 2 850.94 ten thousand people. A total of 32 766 water samples were collected and the median iodine was 5.2 μg/L. There were 18 199 villages with water iodine < 10 μg/L, accounting for 69.4% (covering 1 812.17 ten thousand people, accounting for 63.6%), 6 471 villages with water iodine 10-<50 μg/L,accounting for 24.7%(covering 787.44 ten thousand people,accounting for 27.6 %),1 166 villages with water iodine 50 - < 100 μg/L,accounting for 4.4% (covering 181.46 ten thousand people, accounting for 6.4%), 377 villages with water iodine ≥100 μg/L, accounting for 1.4%(covering 69.87 ten thousand people, accounting for 2.5%).In 1 362 townships (towns), 71.1% (969)water iodine median was<10 μg/L,24.2%(330)water iodine median was in 10-<50 μg/L,3.4%(46)water iodine median was in 50-<100 μg/L,and 1.2%(17) water iodine median was ≥100 μg/L. In 119 counties(cities,districts),there were 90 counties(accounting for 75.6%) with the water median < 10 μg/L, there were 26 counties (accounting for 21.8%) with the water median 10 - < 50 μg/L. Conclusions Most parts of Shanxi Province(or the resident population) are iodine deficiency areas, the external environment water iodine contents in the rest of the regions are different, we should adopt different iodine supplement or iodine reduction measures in regions with different water iodine levels.

Objective To master the results of examination and evaluation of coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis in Shanxi Province,and to provide a scientific basis for further prevention and treatment of the disease.Methods In 2012-2015,the prevention and control situation and condition survey were carried out in all coalburning-borne endemic fluorosis villages of 20 counties in Shanxi Province.A county-level self-inspection and a provincial-level spot-check were conducted to investigate the changes of improved stove and correct usage of the improved stove,and the correct drying of corn and pepper for human consumption.Children aged 8 to 12 were examined for dental fluorosis.The endemic areas were selected according to the Control Standards of Endemic Fluorosis in Endemic Areas (GB 17017-2010) and Eliminating Standards of Coal-burning Type Endemic Fluorosis,and dental fluorosis children was diagnosed based on the Diagnosis of Dental Fluorosis method (WS/T 208-2011).Results Totally 3 371 villages and 716 683 households were investigated,the rates of the improved stove and the correct usage of the improved stove were 98.72％ (707 502/716 683) and 98.74％ (698 608/707 502);the correct drying rate of corn and pepper for human consumption was 99.85％ (715 605/716 683);the dental fluorosis rate of 8 to 12 years old children and the dental fluorosis index were 6.41％ (6 762/105 453) and 0.14.A total of 20 counties in the province,9 counties had reached the control standards,11 counties had reached the elimination standards.Provincial and municipal level checked a total of 57 towns,157 villages,and the results of the overall compliance rate was 87.26％ (137/157).Conclusions The prevention and control effect is obvious on coalburning-borne endemic fluorosis in Shanxi Province.Disease surveillance,health education,the management and maintenance work on defluoridation stoves are keys in control of coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis.

Objective: To study the relationship between plasma NT-ProBNP level and the severity of coronary artery lesions including left anterior descending (LAD) involvement in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) while without diastolic heart failure. Methods: A total of 280 qualiifed patients were collected, plasma NT-proBNP level was examined in all patients within 24-hour of admission. The patients were divided into 3 sets of groups. By Gensini score system: Gensini score<30 group, n=94, Gensini score (30-60) group,n=87 and Gensini score>60 group,n=99; by the number of coronary branch lesions: Single branch group,n=78, Double branch group,n=105 and Triple branch group,n=97; by LAD condition: Criminal LAD group,n=146 and Non-criminal LAD group,n=134. Relevant comparison was conducted in all patients. Results: Plasma NT-proBNP level in Gensini score>60 group was higher than the other 2 Gensini groups, it was higher in Gensini score (30-60) group than Gensini score<30 group; the more branches were involved, the higher NT-proBNP were found (1176.70±492.50) pg/ml vs (608.70±331.20) pg/ml vs (336.90±176.70) pg/ml; NT-proBNP was higher in Criminal LAD group than Non-criminal LAD group (1199.40±725.00) pg/ml vs (607.40±244.20) pg/ml, allP<0.05. Pearson correlation analysis showed that NT-proBNP was positively related to Gensini score (r=0.278,P<0.05). Conclusion: Plasma NT-proBNP level was positively related to severity of coronary lesions, it had certain predictivevalue for triple vessel disease and criminal LAD; routine NT-proBNP examination was helpful for risk stratiifcation and clinical treatment in acute STEMI patients.
