Objective To investigate the effect of rapid rehabilitation nursing mode on postoperative complications in elderly patients with appendicitis. Methods Forty-eight elderly patients with appendicitis underwent surgery from July 2013 to June 2014 were set as the control group, and another fifty-three elderly patients from July 2014 to June 2015 as observation group. The patients in the control group were treated with routine care while the patients in the observation group with rapid rehabilitation nursing. Operative complications, gastrointestinal tumor recovery and postoperative hospitalization time were compared within one week after the operations between two groups. Result The rates of constipation, abdominal distention, chills and dysuria in the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control and the time of anal first exhaust, defecation and postoperative hospitalization in the observation group were significantly lower or shorter than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion The rapid rehabilitation nursing mode based on evidence can reduce surgery complications in elderly patients, promoter recovery and shorten hospitalization time.

Objective:Anti-synthase syndrome (ASS) is a rare autoimmune disease. To increase the understanding of the disease and reduce the rate of miss diagnosis.Methods:The clinical data of 8 patients with positive anti-synthase antibody afterprimary Sj?gren's syndrome (pSS) were retrospectively analyzed and descriptive statistical analysis was carried out.Results:The diagnosis of Sjogren's syndrome (SS) was in accordance with the revised European criteriaof SS issued by the US-Europe consensus Group in 2002 or the classification criteria of American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism (ACR/EULAR) SS in 2016, and the diagnostic ASS was in accordance with the diagnostic criteria of Conners in 2010 or Solomon in 2011. Eight(100%) patients had a history of interstitial lung disease, and 7 (88%) patients had fever (oral temperature >38.5 ℃). All patients were positive for anti-Ro-52 antibody, 4 patients were positive for anti-PL-7 antibody, 2 patients were positive for anti-EJ antibody, 1 patient was positive for both anti-PL-7 antibody and anti-EJ antibody, and 1 patient was positive for anti-PL-12.Conclusion:pSS patients with severe interstitial lung disease or high fever of unknown causes should be screened for anti-synthase antibodies and the possibility of ASS.

AIM: To assess the degree of oxidative damage during acute myocardial infarction and reperfusion, and to clarify the protective effect of Tongxinluo in mini-swine model. METHODS: Thirty mini-swines were randomized into 5 study groups: sham group, model group, low dose (0.05 g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)), medium dose (0.2 g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)) and high dose (0.5 g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)) of Tongxinluo groups (pretreated with Tongxinluo for 3 d). Animals except in sham group were subjected to 3 h of coronary occlusion followed by 1 h of reperfusion. Concentrations of total antioxidative capability (T-AOC), total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD), reduced glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in blood sample and the myocardium were measured. RESULTS: (1) T-AOC, T-SOD and GSH in serum significantly decreased (all P<0.05), while MDA significantly increased (P<0.01) at 3 h after AMI in comparison with those at baseline. Compared to those at 3 h after AMI, the contents of T-AOC, T-SOD and GSH at 1 h after reperfusion significantly decreased (all P<0.01), accompanied by increase of MDA (P<0.01). (2) Compared to those in normal area, levels of T-AOC, T-SOD and GSH in reperfusion myocardium decreased significantly (all P<0.01) and MDA increased significantly (P<0.01). T-AOC, T-SOD and GSH in no-reflow myocardium further decreased (all P<0.01) and MDA increased (P<0.01) as compared to those in reperfusion myocardium. (3) Compared to model group, medium dose of Tongxinluo increased the contents of T-AOC and T-SOD and reduced MDA production in serum at 3 h after AMI (all P<0.05), while medium dose of Tongxinluo increased T-SOD level at 1 h after reperfusion (P<0.05). High dose of Tongxinluo increased the levels of T-AOC and T-SOD and decreased MDA content in serum at 3 h after AMI and 1 h after reperfusion (all P<0.05). (4) The medium dose of Tongxinluo increased T-AOC content (P<0.05) and reduced MDA (P<0.05) in reperfusion myocardium, while high dose of Tongxinluo increased T-AOC, T-SOD and GSH (all P<0.05), reduced MDA (P<0.01) in reperfusion myocardium, and also increased T-AOC, T-SOD (all P<0.05), reduced MDA (P<0.01) in no-reflow area as compared to those in model group. CONCLUSION: Impairment of antioxidant defense system in vivo and imbalance of redox homeostasis in myocardium region might play an important role in the pathogenesis of no-reflow after myocardial acute infarction following reperfusion. Tongxinluo protects myocardium from reperfusion injury by improving antioxidant defense and attenuating oxidative damage.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of rituximab in the treatment of systemic sclerosis (SSc).Methods:Eight SSc patients who received rituximab treatment in the Department of Rheumatology of Shanghai Ruijin Hospital from November 2016 to May 2020 were treated with rituximab at week 0, week 2, week 4, week 24 and week 48. The clinical symptoms and laboratory parameters were evaluated at baseline, week 4, week 24 and week 48 respectively. All data were analyzed by Wilcoxon test.Results:All the patients were diagnosed as diffuse SSc, including seven females and one male, with a median disease course of 2.5 years. At week 0, week 24 and week 48, the modified Rodnon skin scores (MRss) were 16.5 (11.8, 29.5) , 14.5 (9.5, 27) ( Z=0.841) and 10.5 (7, 24.3) ( Z=0.420) respectively, which were significantly improved as compared with the baseline ( P<0.05). The patients' self-scores were 60(50, 77.5), 52.5(41.3, 67.5)( Z=0.113) and 47.5(36.3, 57.5)( Z=0.474) respectively, which were significantly improved at week 24 and week 48, and the High Resolution CT (HRCT) scores at baseline and week 48 were 2.7(1.02, 3.7) and 1.6(0.65, 2.95)( Z=0.964) respectively, significantly improved after treatment ( P<0.05). The pulmonary aterial hypertension (PAH) values were 48(41, 58.5) mmHg and 47(38.5, 57) mmHg ( Z=0.315) respectively. There was no significant difference between the two groups. Clinical observation showed that the condition was improved and no adverse reaction occurred at the same time period. Conclusion:The improvement of skin sclerosis, pulmonary interstitial lesion and pulmonary artery pressure can be observed during the treatment with rituximab, which may be a new choice for the treatment of SSc. There is no serious adverse reaction during the treatment, and the patients are well tolerated and safe.

Extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) is a small segment of circular DNA located outside the chromosome, which has the function of self-replication. Recently, amplification of oncogenes on ecDNA has been proved to be a common phenomenon in tumor cells, and has some characteristics worth studying, such as correlation with patients' poor prognosis. Multiple chromosomal events are involved in the formation of ecDNA, and its amplification can directly increase the number of DNA copies of extra-chromosomal oncogenes and accelerate the generation and development of tumors. Moreover, the segregation pattern of unequal transmission of parental ecDNA cells to offspring not only increases tumor heterogeneity, but also enhances tumor adaptation to environment and response to therapy. This article reviews the current status and potential significance of ecDNA in tumor cells.

The unique characteristics of the tumor microenvironment (TME) could be exploited to develop antitumor nanomedicine strategies. However, in many cases, the actual therapeutic effect is far from reaching our expectations due to the notable tumor heterogeneity. Given the amplified characteristics of TME regulated by vascular disrupting agents (VDAs), nanomedicines may achieve unexpected improved efficacy. Herein, we fabricate platelet membrane-fusogenic liposomes (PML/DP&PPa), namely "platesomes", which actively load the hypoxia-activated pro-prodrug DMG-PR104A (DP) and physically encapsulate the photosensitizer pyropheophorbide a (PPa). Considering the different stages of tumor vascular collapse and shutdown induced by a VDA combretastatin-A4 phosphate (CA4P), PML/DP&PPa is injected 3 h after intraperitoneal administration of CA4P. First, CA4P-mediated tumor hemorrhage amplifies the enhanced permeation and retention (EPR) effect, and the platesome-biological targeting further promotes the tumor accumulation of PML/DP&PPa. Besides, CA4P-induced vascular occlusion inhibits oxygen supply, followed by photodynamic therapy-caused acute tumor hypoxia. This prolonged extreme hypoxia contributes to the complete activation of DP and then high inhibitory effect on tumor growth and metastasis. Thus, such a combining strategy of artificially-regulated TME and bio-inspired platesomes pronouncedly improves tumor drug delivery and boosts tumor hypoxia-selective activation, and provides a preferable solution to high-efficiency cancer therapy.
