Objective To summarize the characteristics of ecthyma gangrenosum and explore its significance in early diagnosis of pseudomonas aeruginosa sepsis in children.Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 11 children with ecthyma gangrenosum who were hospitalized at Guangzhou women and children's medical center between May 2008 and Apr 2011.Results Eight cases were male and 7 were less than twelve months,the oldest was 2 years old,all of them were diagnosed as Pseudomonas aeruginosa spesis.Two patients had a single lesion,and the others had multiple lesions.Ecthyma gangrenosum located on the trunks in 7 cases,on anogenital areas in 5 cases,on extremities in 5 cases and on faces in 3.The lesions appeared on day 2 to day 10.On average,they developed on day 5.Seven patients developed ecthyma gangrenosum before admission,the course of the illness before admission was 6 days.Fever and multiple organ dysfunction occurred in all the patients and their cultures grew pseudomonas aeruginosa,blood cultures were positive in 8 cases,the others were isolated psudomonas aeruginosa from tissue of the lesion,discharge,ascites,pleural effusion,respectively.The time of ecthyma gangrenosum appeared was earlier than the time of the culture results reported.All of the patients were started empiric antibiotics therapy on admission,the initial antibiotic regimen was appropriate in 9 patients,8 needed surgical intervention,4 were treated with continuous blood purification.Ten patients survived and 2 died,the hospital stay was from 1 to 63 days,the average was 30.Conclusion Ecthyma gangrenosum is a known cutaneous manifestation of pseudomonas aeruginosa sepsis,which is helpful for early diagnosis and treatment,and then the outcome will be improved.

Objective To explore the characteristics and influential factors of resilience in empty-nest elderly with mild cognitive impairment(MCI) living in the poor area.Methods A total of 1 188 empty-nest elderly in the poor area of Hunan was sampled,analysis of covariance (ANCOVA),path analysis was used to analyze the data which were investigated by the two questionnaires including Index of SRQS.Results The prevalence of MCI in these 1 188 empty-nest elderly in rural area was 37.6％.The empty nest elderly in MCI group reported low resilience scores than those in cognitive normal group((58.84t 11.53) vs (63.58± 11.62) ; P＜0.001).ANCOVA and path analysis indicated that direct influences of income (β=3.324),education level (β=2.041),MoCA score (β=0.281) while age had indirect influences on it(β=-0.173).Conclusion Resilience in empty-nest elderly with MCI is low.Cognitive function,income and education are the direct influencing factor for resilience of the empty-nest elderly in the rural area.

Objective: To explore the relation of psychological abuse and neglect in childhood and college students’ mental health. Methods: Cluster sampling was used to select 457 college students studying in the Central South University and Hunan Commercial College as subjects. The general information questionnaire,Child Psychological Abuse and Neglect Scale (CPANS) and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90) were completed by all subjects. Results: 45.30% of the respondents experienced psychological abuse or neglect in childhood. The total score and scores of each factor of SCL-90 of the group of psychological abuse combined with neglect was above those of psychological-abuse group,neglect-group and neither-abuse-nor-neglect-group. Additionally,ten factor scores and total score of SCL-90 of neglect-group were distinctly higher than those of neither-abuse-nor-neglect-group. The scores of each aspect and sub-scale of CPANS were significantly correlated with every factor and total score of SCL-90(P

Objective:To investigate the best preservation conditions of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide( NT-proBNP) and provide detection references with stable performance for detection kits.Methods: ELISA was used to quantitatively detect the changes in NT-proBNP contents in various preservation solutions.The effects of basic buffer system, preservative Proclin300 and antibiotics on the preservation of NT-proBNP were analyzed using univariate analysis.The combination of various factors was then optimized using orthogonal experiments, to identify the best preservation system for NT-proBNP.Results: The univariate analysis determined that the basic buffer system for NT-proBNP was 0.02 mol/L phosphate buffered saline(PBS) at pH7.2,the addition of pre-servative Proclin300 could extend the preservation time of NT-proBNP at 37℃ by one day, the combined addition of penicillin and streptomycin prolonged the preservation time of NT-proBNP by one day compared with individually adding penicillin or streptomycin.The orthogonal experiments identified a preservation solution for NT-proBNP as 20%calf serum,1/1 000 Proclin300,120 U/ml penicillin and 80 U/ml streptomycin in a basic buffer system of 0.02 mol/L PBS at pH7.2.This solution was used to preserve an NT-proBNP reference sample at 37℃.Seven days later,the calibrated fixed-value of the sample at 37℃was only 1.3%lower than that at 4℃.Conclusion:Optimized NT-proBNP serum preservation solution could preserve NT-proBNP standard sample at 37℃ for seven days.

Chronic pain is a public health concern of desiderate to be solved, and analgesics is not always successful and may be difficult to tolerate in clinic.Studies have suggested that the development of chronic pain involves alterations in multiple brain regions.Central modulation mechanisms, especially those soliciting the prefrontal cortex and its related brain regions, may play an important role.Non-pharmacological therapies such as transcranial direct current stimulation, transcranial repetitive magnetic stimulation and cognitive behavior therapy have emerged to be effective interventions of great potential for chronic pain in recent years.Hereby the research progress was reviewed on the neural modulation effect of prefrontal cortex in non-pharmacological treatment of chronic pain, focusing on the related changes in brain structure and function, to further explore the underlying mechanism of pain modulation, and provide theoretical basis to optimize non-pharmacological treatment of chronic pain.

Objective To investigate the correlation between clinicopathological features and lymph node metastasis in early gastric cancer (EGC) and evaluate the influence of lymph node metastasis on the overall survival.Methods The clinicopathological data of 178 EGC patients undergoing radical gastrectomy with lymphadenectomy in Peking University First Hospital between Jan 2006 and Dec 2015 were retrospectively reviewed.The impact of lymph node metastasis on the overall survival was analyzed.Results Lymph node metastasis was detected in 19 (10.7％) of 178 patients.Univariate analysis showed a positive relationship between tumor size (x2 =4.804,P =0.028),depth of invasion (x2 =8.176,P =0.003),histological type (x2 =4.333,P =0.037),vascular tumor thrombus (x2 =9.992,P =0.002) and lymph node metastasis in EGC.Multivariate analysis revealed that depth of invasion (Wald =4.954,P =0.026)and intra-vascular tumor thrombus (Wald =3.966,P =0.046) were independent relative factors of lymph node metastasis in EGC patients.The 5-year survival rates of EGC patients with lymph node metastasis were 78.9％,much lower than that without lymph node metastasis (94.3％,x2 =8.310,P=0.004).Conclusions Lymph node metastasis in EGC is mainly correlated with depth of invasion and intra-vascular tumor thrombus.The prognosis of patients with lymph node metastasis is significantly poorer than those without lymph node metastasis.

Objective To investigate serum vitamin D levels in tuberculosis (TB) patients with different blood glucose status.Methods Two hundred and forty seven TB patients were recruited from tuberculosis clinics in Jilin province and 80 normal subjects who underwent health check up in Beijing Hospital served as controls.Blood samples were collected,fasting blood glucose (FBG) and serum vitamin D [25 (OH)D] levels were measured.Results FBG results showed that there were 95 patients with normal FBG,69 with pre-diabetes (pre-DM) and 83 with diabetes mellitus (DM).Vitamin D measurement showed that 25(OH) D level in TB patients with normal FBG,pre-DM and DM was 16.1 (10.7,26.2) μg/L,12.9 (9.6,20.1) μg/L and 12.4 (10.4,16.9) μg/L,respectively,(x2 =19.608,P ＜ 0.001) and were much lower than that in the normal controls (20.5 μg/L) (x2 =21.701,P ＜ 0.001).Proportion of TB patients with 25 (OH)D sever deficiency(＜ 10.0 μg/L)in patients with normal FBG,pre-DM and DM was 20.0％ (19/95),31.9％ (22/69),and 24.1％ (20/83) respectively (x2 =6.376,P ＜ 0.05);proportion of 25 (OH) D deficiency (10.0-19.9 ng/ml) in three groups was 41.1％ (39/95),40.6％ (28/69),and 57.8 ％ (48/83),respectively (x2 =15.141,P ＜ 0.05);sufficient 25 (OH) D (≥ 30.0 μg/L) was 14.7％ (14/95),7.2％ (5/69),and 1.2％ (1/83),respectively (x2 =19.118;P ＜0.05).While the proportion of TB patient with 25 (OH) D insufficiency (20.0-29.9 ng/ml) was 24.2％ (23/95),20.3％ (14/69),and 16.9％ (14/48) respectively (x2 =0.933,P =0.627).In TB patients with normal FBG,risk factors for 25 (OH) D deficiency were smoking (OR =5.619,95％ CI:1.293-24.424,P =0.021),cold season (OR =14.402,95％CI:4.070-50.965,P ＜ 0.001) and smear negative TB (OR =6.194,95 ％ CI:1.873-20.481,P =0.003).Living in rural area (OR =3.429,95％ CI:1.040-11.299,P =0.043) was the risk factor for 25 (OH) D deficiency in TB patients with pre-DM and age ≥ 60 years (OR =2.474,95％CI:1.086-5.623,P =0.031) was risk factor for 25 (OH) D deficiency in those with DM.Conclusions Vitamin D level is lower in TB patients than that in normal controls.The diabetic TB patients have the lowest 25 (OH) D level and have highest proportion of vitamin D deficiency and sever deficiency,particularly for elderly patients.

Objective:To summarize the clinical experience in treating acute superior mesenteric artery embolization with intestinal necrosis.Methods:Clinical data, surgical methods, complications and 30-day follow-up of patients with acute superior mesenteric artery embolization and intestinal necrosis admitted at Xijing Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University from Jan 2008 to Dec 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 46 patients were included. The 30-day overall mortality rate was 19.6%, and that of those treated by enterostomy after enterectomy was 12.1%, and that was 38.5% in those undergoing primary entero-anastomosis after enterectomy. Univariate analysis showed that rebound pain was positive ( P=0.025), MAP was higher than 105mmHg ( P=0.04), heart rate was less than 120 beats/min ( P=0.04), and Fullen intestinal ischemia grade ( P=0.03) was significantly related to survival rates. Conclusions:Rebound pain, MAP, heart rate, Fullen grade, and surgical methods significantly affect the prognosis of patients. More patients survive with intestinal resection and enterostomy than those with intestinal resection and immediate anastomosis.

With the gradual aggravation of aging in China， the prevalence of osteoporosis is increasing year by year. Osteoporosis has become a major public health problem threatening the health of middle-aged and elderly people， especially middle-aged and elderly women. There are many predisposing factors and complex pathogenesis of osteoporosis. The interpretation of osteoporosis has been the focus of clinical research in recent years. How to prevent and treat osteoporosis more effectively has also become a major problem faced by researchers. In recent years， the balance and homeostasis of calcium and phosphorus regulated by intestinal absorption， renal excretion and bone have become one of the hot topics， and the balance and homeostasis of calcium and phosphorus in vivo are the key to normal bone homeostasis. At the same time， as a complex microbial community living in the gastrointestinal tract， intestinal flora can produce a variety of regulators affecting metabolism. It has been widely confirmed that it acts on the body indirectly or directly， in multiple ways and targets to prevent and treat osteoporosis. Therefore， further exploring the role and mechanism of intestine kidney bone axis in osteoporosis plays a far-reaching significance for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. In recent years， scholars have made a lot of exploration on the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis with traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， and found that TCM can intervene the expression of intestinal flora and play the effect of prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Based on the "intestine kidney bone axis"， this paper briefly discusses the integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine of kidney and osteoporosis， intestine and osteoporosis， intestine kidney axis， the treatment of kidney from intestine， intestine and osteoporosis， and the application of TCM in regulating intestinal flora in osteoporosis， in order to provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis.
