Objective To explore the effect of early drinking on keeping safety and improving comfort of mouth cavity in postoperative patients with transsphenoidal resection of pituitary adenoma. Methods A total of 70 postoperative patients with transsphenoidal resection of pituitary adenoma were divided into the experimental group and the control group with 35 cases each by random number table method. The control group were allowed to drink water after postoperative 6 hours, the experimental group were allowed to drink a small amount of water after 1 h when they recovered from anesthesia. The symptoms of heart rate, respiration, blood pressure, pulse oxygen saturation, nausea, vomiting, mis- aspiration, dry mouth,thirst, sore throat, oral pH value, oral cavity peculiar smell and the mood were observed 6 h after operation. Results After 6 hours, the heart rate, respiration, systolic blood pressure, and pulse oxygen saturation in the two groups were within normal range, which were (79.14±7.82) times per minute vs. (82.29±13.48) times per minute, (17.71± 1.10) times per minute vs. (18.31±1.92) times per minute, (121.66±10.61) mmHg vs.(121.55±12.86) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (17.71±1.10) times per minute, (0.99±0.01) % vs. (0.99±0.01) %,there was no significant differences( t=-1.603-0.673, P > 0.05). The value of diastolic blood pressure in the control group were lower than that of the experimental group,(70.14±6.87) mmHg vs.( 74.34±7.29) mmHg, there was significant difference ( t=2.497, P < 0.05) .The incidence of mis- aspiration was zero in two groups. The rate of nausea, vomiting were 11.43%(4/35) and 5.71% (2/35) in the experimental group, which were significantly lower than 17.14%(6/35) and 11.43%(4/35) in the control group, there was no significant differences (χ2=0.467,0.182, P > 0.05). The rate of dry mouth,thirst in the experimental group were lower than those of the control group, 2.71±1.74 vs. 7.03± 1.98, 1.77±1.68 vs. 5.06±2.35, the difference was statistically significant (t=-9.685, -6.725, P < 0.01). T he value of sore throat in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group, 3.40±1.72 vs. 4.11± 2.23, there was no significant differences (t=-1.500, P > 0.05). There was difference in oral pH value(6.82±0.17 vs. 6.43±0.25, t=0.815, P < 0.01) between the experimental group and the control group.

Objective:To investigate mucosal injury after high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) chemotherapy in treatment of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and to analyze the association with methotrexate blood concentration, risk stratification and clinical efficacy.Methods:The data of 95 children with ALL who received 539 times of HD-MTX chemotherapy in the First Hospital of Harbin from November 2015 to October 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, and the association of mucosal injury with methotrexate blood concentration, disease risk degree and clinical efficacy was also analyzed.Results:Among 95 children who received 539 times of HD-MTX chemotherapy, the total incidence of mucosal injury was 8.4% (45/539); the incidence of mucosal injury was 4.6% (11/239), 7.6% (8/105), 13.3% (26/195), respectively in the low-risk group, middle-risk group and high-risk group. With the elevation of disease risk, the incidence of mucosal injury was increased ( χ2 = 10.787, P < 0.05). There was no correlation of the degree of mucosal injury with methotrexate blood concentration and disease risk degree (all P > 0.05), and the mucosal injury was not related with the clinical efficacy ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:After the application of HD-MTX in children with ALL, adjustment of the dose of rescue drug by monitoring of methotrexate blood concentration can improve the safety of therapeutic drugs.

Objective:To explore the therapeutic effect of low-dose arsenous acid/tretinoin with or without low-dose cytarabine induction regimen on myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) with TET2 gene mutation in children.Methods:Nine children with MDS who were hospitalized at the First Hospital of Harbin from March 2009 to April 2018 were collected, including 3 cases of refractory cytopenia of childhood (RCC), 4 cases of MDS with excess of blasts type Ⅰ (MDS-EBⅠ) and 2 cases of MDS with excess of blasts type Ⅱ (MDS-EBⅡ). The next-generation gene sequencing method (NGS) was applied to detect the TET2 gene mutation in bone marrow cells of children with MDS. The low-dose arsenous acid/tretinoin with or without low-dose cytarabine induction regimen was adopted to conduct tiered therapy on children with MDS. The clinical efficacy was assessed in line with the MDS response evaluation criteria adopted by the MDS International Working Group (IWG) in 2006.Results:Among the 9 patients, the short-term clinical efficacy was observed in 8 cases. Two patients with TET2 gene mutation achieved the short-term clinical efficacy of bone marrow complete remission (mCR) and hematological improvement (HI). Among 7 patients without TET2 gene mutation, 4 patients obtained CR, 1 patients obtained mCR and HI, and 1 patients obtained stable disease (SD) in terms of the short-term clinical efficacy.Conclusion:The low-dose arsenous acid/tretinoin with or without low-dose cytarabine regimen may be beneficial to MDS children with TET2 gene mutation.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of medical coping style on psychological resilience and death anxiety in cancer patients.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 330 inpatients from 2 cancer hospitals in Beijing were selected as the research objects from June to August 2020. The general information questionnaire, Chinese Version of Templer 's Death Anxiety Scale (C-T-DAS) , Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire (MCMQ) and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) were used to investigate them. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the relationship between death anxiety, medical coping style and psychological resilience in cancer patients. AMOS 21.0 was used to establish the structural equation model and verify the mediation effect. A total of 330 questionnaires were sent out in this study, and 302 were effectively received, with the effective recovery of 91.5%. Results:The score of Chinese Version of Templer's Death Anxiety Scale for 302 cancer patients was (40.12±10.23) , the score of Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale was (70.97±13.43) and the scores of confrontation, avoidance and resighation dimension of Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire were (18.80 ±3.65) , (15.64±3.16) and (8.75±2.84) . The psychological resilience of cancer patients was negatively correlated with death anxiety and the resignation dimension in medical coping styles ( P<0.01) , and positively correlated with the facing and avoiding dimensions in medical coping styles ( P<0.05) . The face and yield dimensions in the medical coping style of cancer patients were positively correlated with death anxiety ( P<0.05) . Medical coping styles played a partial mediating role between psychological resilience and death anxiety, and the mediating effect accounted for 32.47% of the total effect. Conclusions:Clinical medical staff should pay attention to the death anxiety of cancer patients, improve their psychological resilience and encourage patients to actively cope with the disease, so as to reduce their death anxiety level and promote mental health.

Objectives:To investigate the association between normal-weight central obesity with new-onset cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality risk. Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted,selecting a total of 93885 participants from the Kailuan Study who had their first physical examination in 2006-2007.According to waist circumference (central obesity:male waist circumference ≥90 cm,female waist circumference ≥85 cm;no central obesity:male waist circumference<90 cm,female waist circumference<85 cm) and body mass index (BMI,normal weight:18.5 kg/m2≤BMI<24.0 kg/m2;overweight/obesity:BMI ≥24.0 kg/m2),the participants were divided into 4 groups:normal weight no central obesity group (G1 group),normal weight central obesity group (G2 group),overweight/obesity no central obesity group (G3 group) and overweight/central obesity group (G4 group);Using the Kaplan-Meier method,the cumulative incidence of new-onset cardiovascular diseases (including hemorrhagic stroke,ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction) and all-cause mortality in different groups was calculated,and the Log-rank test was used for intergroup comparisons.Furthermore,the associations between the different groups and the risk of new-onset cardiovascular diseases and all-cause mortality were analyzed using the multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression model. Results:After a median follow-up of 14.97 (14.55,15.17) years,the cumulative incidence of new-onset cardiovascular diseases in G1 group,G2 group,G3 group and G4 group was 7.62%,10.84%,8.67%,12.91% respectively (log-rank P<0.05) and the cumulative incidence of all-cause mortality was 12.83%,19.72%,10.65%,16.33% respectively (log-rank P<0.01).After adjusting for confounding factors,Cox regression analysis showed that the HR (95%CI) of new-onset cardiovascular diseases in G2 group,G3 group and G4 group were 1.14 (1.04-1.25),1.07 (1.01-1.14),1.27 (1.21-1.34),respectively compared with G1 group (all P<0.05).The HR (95%CI) of all-cause mortality were 1.06 (1.00-1.14),0.90 (0.85-0.95),0.97 (0.93-1.01) compared with G1 group,and P values were 0.07,<0.01,0.15,respectively.The results of sensitivity analysis were consistent with the above major studies after excluding overweight/obesity and cancer participants during follow-up. Conclusions:Normal-weight central obesity increases the risk of new-onset cardiovascular diseases and all-cause mortality.
