Objective To research the clinical value of serum thyroid peroxidase (TPOAb) in screening thyroid dysfunction in pregnancy.Methods The concentration of serum TPOAb and TSH(thyroid-stimulating hormone) was detected by MEIA and CMIA in 75 cases of pregnant women with thyroid disfunction,and 145 cases of pregnant women without tyhroid dysfunction (as control group).Results There were significant differences in both TSH and TPOAb levels between pregnant women with and without thyroid dysfunction(P0.05). So the normal serum TSH could not completely exclude the thyroid dysfunction in pregnant women.Conclusion TPOAb can be used as a prenatal screening marker for early diagnosis of thyroid dysfunction in pregnancy. From the diagnostic point, TSH can not completely substitute for TPOAb and the abnormal TPOAb can indicate the possibility and risk for autoimmune thyroid disease in pregnant women.

Objective:To summarize the experience of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin(BCG) in the treatment of bladder cancer secondary to renal transplantation.Methods:The clinical data of 5 patients who underwent BCG bladder irrigation after secondary bladder cancer after kidney transplantation in Tianjin First Central Hospital from January 2015 to December 2019 were analyzed. There were 1 male and 4 female cases. During the period of immunosuppression after transplantation, 1 case developed secondary high-level non-muscular invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), 3 cases developed secondary low-grade NMIBC, and 1 case developed secondary glandular cystitis (4 cases). The mean age of the 5 patients with secondary bladder cancer was 59.7±4.0 years. Case one with high level NMIBC was treated with transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and postoperative irrigation of epirubicin. Case 3 and 5 with low-level NMIBC accepted regular postoperative irrigation of gemcitabine. No irrigative therapy was performed in case 2. Bladder cancer recurred in case 1, 2, 3 and 5 after 20.1±9.7 months. TURBT was observed in all the 4 patients, among which 3 were of high grade NMIBC and 1 was of low grade NMIBC. Four patients were irrigated with BCG 2 weeks after operation. Postoperative pathology indicated low-level NMIBC in case 4, and BCG was irrigated 2 weeks after the operation. During perfusion therapy, immunosuppressive agents were continued.Results:During BCG perfusion, 4 of the 5 cases showed BCG related local inflammation, among which 2 cases presented symptoms of bladder irritation, 1 case presented hematuria, and 1 case presented hematuria with low fever. Patients with frequent urination, pain in urine, hematuria and other symptoms improved after drinking plenty of water, taking bed rest and taking levofloxacin (0.5g/ day ×7 days). Patients with low fever were treated with antipyretic treatment. No antituberculous agents were used prophylactically during BCG perfusion. There were no symptoms of tuberculosis infection or sepsis. The function of transplantated kidney was normal and no tendency of rejection. The 5 patients were followed up for 7-24 months, 1 patient was lost to follow-up after 7 months of BCG bladder perfusion, and no tumor recurrence or metastasis was found in 5 patients during the follow-up.Conclusions:The use of immunosuppressive agents does not reduce the biological activity of BCG, and BCG does not increase the risk of systemic toxicity or affect the function of transplanted kidneys in immunocompromised patients. BCG is a treatment option for bladder cancer secondary to renal transplantation.

Lymphatic leakage and lymphatic cysts are common complications after radical resection of middle- and high-risk prostate cancer. There are many treatment methods but the effect is not accurate. This article reports two patients who were diagnosed by lipiodol lymphangiography under ultrasound guidance and used a mixture of n-butyl cyanoacrylate and lipiodol to embolize lymphatic leakage. Among them, one patient achieved success after one session of interventional embolization. Another patient achieved success after 3 interventions and embolization. Two patients had no complications related to lymphatic interventional therapy, and no lymphatic leakage recurred during the 3-month follow-up. Ultrasound-guided lymphangiography and lymphatic embolization through the inguinal lymph nodes are a feasible option for the treatment of refractory lymphoma leakage

Objective:To explore the effect of the Internet combined pre-rehabilitation intervention model in patients with chronic hepatitis B liver cirrhosis.Methods:From June 2019 to December 2020, convenience sampling was used to select 140 patients with chronic hepatitis liver cirrhosis in Henan Provincial People's Hospital. The patients were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group according to the order of entry, 70 cases in each group.The observation group carried out the Internet combined pre-rehabilitation model and the control group implemented conventional nursing intervention. We compared the disappearance time of clinical symptoms, mastery of rehabilitation knowledge and the quality of life of the two groups of patients.Results:The disappearance time of abdominal distension, ascites, anorexia, fatigue, and lower extremity edema of the observation group was shorter than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) .After the intervention, the disease knowledge such as reasonable work and rest, reasonable diet, emotional control, exercise and medical treatment of observation group was better than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . After the intervention, the quality of life scores of patients in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The Internet combined pre-rehabilitation intervention model can shorten the disappearance time of clinical symptoms in patients with chronic hepatitis B liver cirrhosis, improve the patient's knowledge of disease rehabilitation and the quality of life, which is worthy of clinical application.

Pharmacy services in grassroots medical institutions provide professional pharmacy services for patients. This service not only expanded the scope of primary care delivery, but also meets the residents′need for appropriate medication. At present, the majority of grassroots medical institutions in China provide outpatient pharmacy services by means of pharmacy service alliance, and foreign grassroots medical institutions mainly provide pharmaceutical outpatient services with drug treatment management as the core for patients by granting pharmacists partial prescription rights.In recent years, pharmaceutical outpatient services in grassroots medical institutions had achieved good results in improving patient clinical outcomes, enhancing medication rationality, and enhancing patient compliance. However, there were many unresolved issues, including low public awareness, shortage of pharmaceutical talents, and imperfect guarantee systems. The author suggestted that efforts should be made to increase the publicity of pharmaceutical outpatient services, improve the training mechanism for pharmacists, strengthen cooperation between pharmacists and clinical physicians, include pharmacists in the contracted service team of family doctors, and improve various guarantee systems, in order to provide reference for promoting the sustainable development of pharmaceutical outpatient services in grassroots medical institutions in China.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features and follow-up results of children with acute exogenous lipoid pneumonia (ELP), and to investigate the diagnosis strategy, treatment and risk factors of ELP.Methods:The clinical features, imaging manifestations, results of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), treatment methods and prognosis of 41 ELP inpatients in Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center, Guangzhou Medical University from May 2013 to May 2018, were summarized and analyzed, and the related literature was reviewed.Results:(1) Among 41 patients, 29 cases were male and 12 cases were female.The age of onset ranged from 4 to 53 months.Most of them (35/41 cases, 85.4%) were less than 3 years old, and the majority were aged 1 to 2 years (23/41 cases, 56.1%). (2) The grease taken by children by accident included perfume oil (11 cases), white electric oil (7 cases), electric mosquito oil (5 cases), lubricating oil (5 cases), paraffin oil (4 cases), gasoline/diesel oil (3 cases), kerosene (2 cases), cod-liver oil (2 cases), sewing machine oil (1 case), and unclear oil (1 case). (3) The main clinical manifestations were cough (26/41 cases, 63.4%), shortness of breath (23/41 cases, 56.1%), fever (17/41 cases, 41.5%), cyanosis with hypoxemia (15/41 cases, 36.6%), wheezing (9/41 cases, 22.1%), respiratory distress (9/41 cases, 22.1%), pulmonary hemorrhage (6/41 cases, 14.7%), feeding difficulties and transient vomiting (4/41 cases, 9.8%). Some cases showed no symptoms (3/41 cases, 7.3%). (4) Chest X-ray mainly showed bilateral pulmonary exudative changes or pulmonary consolidation.The most common sign of high-resolution computerized tomography (HRCT) was local or extensive exudation, often accompanied by pulmonary consolidation (18/41 cases, 43.9%). The most common affected sites were bilateral lower lobes (8/41 cases, 19.5%), followed by right lower lobes (3/41 cases, 7.3%), right middle lobes (2/41 cases, 4.8%) and left lower lobes (2/41 cases, 4.8%). Other signs included alveolar changes, hyperventilation, ground glass changes, and nodule formation.(5) Seven children needed mechanical ventilation due to respiratory failure, and all patients underwent bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). All patients recovered without death, with (11.67±4.90) days of hospitalization, and the hospitalization time of ELP patients with adenovirus infection was (19.25±5.93) days.Nine of them were lost to follow-up (8 cases were mild and 1 case was severe). The symptoms of the remaining children disappeared within 1 week to 1 month.The lung images of 21 cases returned to normal within 1 month after discharge, 7 cases returned to normal within 3 months after discharge, and 4 cases returned to normal after 6 months.Conclusion:The clinical manifestations and lung imaging of children with acute ELP have no specificity.Pulmonary imaging of severe patients shows multiple lobes involved, and consolidation and vacuolar changes may occur.Most patients have a favorable prognosis.Co-infection, especially adenovirus infection, may be a risk factor for acute ELP in children.BAL can play a role in both diagnosis and treatment, and its combination with local/systemic glucocorticoid therapy is effective for severe acute ELP.
