Objective To explore the clinical treatment efficacy of punch drainage combined with ventricle puncture in patients with senile hypertensive hemorrhage. Methods One hundred and sixty-eight patients with senile hypertensive hemorrhage, admitted to our hospital from March 2002 to February 2009, were treated by punch drainage combined with ventricle puncture and hematoma dissolution with urokinase. Meanwhile, follow-up for 6-12 months was performed to every patient; the postoperative treatment effects and complications were evaluated by Glasgow Outcome Scale; the relations between the prognosis and both the amount of intracerebral hemorrhage and grades of consciousness situation were statistically analyzed. Results Good prognosis was noted in 91 patients,mild disability in 41, severe disability and vegetative state in 13, and death in 23; few postoperative complications were noted. The prognoses were significantly different in patients with different amounts of intracerebral hemorrhage; so are those in patients with different grades of consciousness situation (P＜0.05); the prognosis of patients under grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ consciousness situation was better than that of patients under grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ consciousness situation and the prognosis of patients with hemorrhage between 30-70 mL was obviously better than that of patients with hemorrhage above 70 mL. Conclusion The punch drainage combined with ventricle puncture and hematoma dissolution with urokinase is an effective treatment method for patients with senile hypertensive intracerebral hematoma.

OBJECTIVETo study the genetic aberrations of ocular extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type occurring in patients from southern China.

METHODSFifty seven paraffin-embedded ocular MALT lymphoma specimens from patients in southern China were studied by interphase fluorescence-in-situ hybridization (FISH) for genetic aberrations including t(11;18)(q21;q21)/API2-MALT1, t(1;14)(p22;q32)/IgH-bcl-10, t(14;18) (q32;q21)/IgH-MALT1 and bcl-6/FOXP1 gene translocations.

RESULTSAmongst the 57 cases studied, 9 cases (15.8%) showed chromosome translocations, including 4 cases (7.0%) of t(11;18)(q21;q21)/API2-MALT1, 1 case (1.8%) of t(14;18) (q32;q21)/IgH-MALT1, 1 case (1.8%) of bcl-6 gene-related chromosome translocation and 3 cases (5.3%) of IgH-unknown translocation partner. FISH revealed 17 cases (29.8%) with 3 copies of bcl-6 gene, 21 cases (36.8%) with 3 copies of MALT1 gene and 12 cases (21.1%) with 3 copies of both genes.

CONCLUSIONSThe MALT lymphoma-associated chromosome translocations t(11;18)(q21;q21)/API2-MALT1 and t(14;18) (q32;q21)/IgH-MALT1 are demonstrated in ocular MALT lymphomas of southern Chinese patients. The prevalence is significantly different from that reported in northern Chinese and northern American patients, indicating a geographic heterogeneity in the MALT lymphoma-associated genetic aberrations. The presence of 3 copies of bcl-6 and MALT1 genes is the commonest genetic abnormalities observed in ocular MALT lymphomas, suggesting a possible role in MALT lymphomagenesis.

OBJECTIVETo study the adverse effects of sleep problems and sleep insufficiency on attention in class and pupils' acadamic achievements.

METHODSA total of 1138 students from four primary schools at ages of 6-12 years were randomly sampled from four districts of Changsha city, Hunan Province June 2009 to April 2010. The inquired items included sleep problems, sleep time, sleep quality, attention in class and academic achievements. Teachers and parents observed the pupils according to the unified requirements for 3 months and then filled out the questionnaires.

RESULTSThe total valid inquiry tables were 1091 with the answering rate of 95.87%, including 549 boys and 542 girls. The sleep quality was more poor in children with sleep problems or sleep insufficiency than in children with normal sleep. The sleep quality was reduced and aggravated along with the increasing sleep problems and the reducing sleep time. The attention in class and academic achievements in children with sleep problems or sleep insufficiency were more poor than in children with normal sleep. The sleep quality index was negatively correlated with attention in class and academic achievements. The attention in class was positively correlated with academic achievements.

CONCLUSIONSThe decline in sleep quality directly affects the attention in class and reduce the academic achievements in primary school children.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility, efficacy and adverse reactions of programmed death-1(PD-1) inhibitors in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) complicated with malignant tumor.Methods:From September 2020 to August 2021, patients with AIDS complicated with malignant tumor in Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University were enrolled. Data including basic information, laboratory test results, CD4 + T cell count, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) viral load were collected. Patients were continuously administered intravenously PD-1 monoclonal antibody until disease progression or intolerant toxicity reaction occurred. Adverse reactions during treatment were recorded.And treatment outcomes were assessed once every 12 weeks after treatment. HIV viral load was measured after treatment once a week for four consecutive times, then once four weeks for two consecutive times, and then once every 12 weeks. Results:Ten patients were included in the study, including seven males and three females, three cases of Hodgkin′s lymphoma, two cases of cervical cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma respectively, one case of non-Hodgkin′s lymphoma, non-small cell lung cancer and anal cancer respectively. There were four patients with CD4 + T cell count of 100 to 200 cells/μL and two patients with CD4 + T cell count lower than 100 cells/μL. All patients had completed at least three cycles of treatment with PD-1 monoclonal antibody, HIV viral load remained lower than 20 copies /mL. Three cases achieved complete response and three cases achieved partial response. Adverse reactions were cutaneous capillary endothelial proliferation (CCEP) (seven cases), major bleeding (three cases), and hearing impairment (one case). Conclusions:PD-1 inhibitor has no adverse effect on the continuous suppression of HIV viral load and has an effect on tumor control, so it is a viable choice in AIDS patients complicated with tumor. However, due to its considerable adverse reactions, multidisciplinary cooperation is needed to reduce the risk of complications and deal with serious complications.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the possible pathways for ovarian injury after administration of cyclophosphamide in rats.

METHODSAdult SD rats received a single injection of saline vehicle or chemotherapeutic agent cyclophosphamide, and 8 weeks later, the ovaries were removed, fixed and serially sectioned for pathological examination and ovarian follicle counting. The expression of stem cell factor (SCF) protein was evaluated by immunohistochemistry and immunoreactive score, and SCF mRNA expression determined by RT-PCR in rat ovaries.

RESULTSCyclophosphamide had a detrimental effect on ovarian stromal function and lead to primordial follicle loss. Immunoreactive SCF antigens were expressed on the oocytes in the primordial and primary follicles of rat ovaries, and also in the granulosa cells of the secondary follicles and early antral follicles. There was a higher granulosa SCF, lower oocyte SCF and higher SCF mRNA level in the ovaries of the rats exposed to cyclophosphamide as compared with those in control rat ovaries (P <0.05).

CONCLUSIONAltered SCF expression in the ovaries of rats exposed to cyclophosphamide can be helpful for understanding the mechanisms for chemotherapeutic drug-induced ovarian damage.

Objective To investigate the effect and feasibility of early enteral nutrition support on postoperative nutrition assessments and clinical outcomes in children patients with congenital heart disease. Methods From October 2013 to October 2014, a number of 100 cases congenital heart disease aged six months to two years old were treated with early enteral nutrition support after operation. According to gender, fifty patients were randomly divided into the intervened group, who were treated with the early enteral nutrition support program. The other fifty patients were divided into control group with no nutrition sup-port. The detailed early enteral nutrition support project were( a) withdraw breathing machine at the same day, giving enteral nutrition 6 hours later after postoperation;( b) patients assist with long-term breathing machine, giving enteral nutrition 12-24 hours later after postoperation. The age, heigth, weight, serum C- reactive protein(CRP), serum retinoic binding protein ( RBP) , serum prealbumin( Pre-ALB) were recorded before operation. Seven days after operation, above indicators were ob-served again. In addition, the first time of excrete, the number of feeding interruption, the time of feeding, the time of ventila-tor, and the related complications were also recorded at hospitalization period. Results No difference of basic information and accompanying complications were observed between control and nutritional intervention group. As to nutritional status, weight-for-age z-score(WAZ) were significant higher in the nutritional intervention group than the control group( -0. 22 ± 1. 16 vs. 0.73 ±1.29, P=0.019) after operation. However length/height-for-age z-score(LAZ/HAZ) and weight-for-length/height z-score( WLZ/WHZ) were similar between control and nutritional intervention group whatever pre-operation and postoperation. Preoperative CRP, RBP, and Pre-ALB were no significant difference between early enteral nutrition and control group. After operation CRP levels in the early enteral nutrition group were significantly lower than that of control group[(45.2 ±16.2)mg/L vs.(67.3±35.5)mg/L,P<0.001],whileRBP[(0.3±0.1)mg/Lvs.(0.2±0.1)mg/L]andPre-ALB[(35.2±12.2)g/Lvs.(25.2±14.2)g/L] weresignificantlyhigherthanthoseofcontrolgroup(Pvaluewere0.031and0.029,respective-ly) . In the early nutritional intervention group and control group, the first time of excrete were remarkable in advance in nutri-tionalinterventiongroupcompredtocontrolgroup[(36±12)hvs.(65±15)h,P=0.008],whilethedifferenceoffeeding interruption times, intensive care unit( ICU) time and mechanical ventilation time in the two groups were not statistically signif-icant(P>0. 05). Conclusion Early nutritional intervention can help gastrointestinal function, enhance nutritional status, lower serum CRP levels and increased serum RBP and Pre-ALB concentrations. It did not add ICU time and ventilation time.

Objective To evaluate the security and effectiveness of emerging sternal rigid plate by comparing with wires closure. Methods 60 patients who undergoing median sternotomy from two centers were enrolled in this study, 30 received wire cerclage( control group) and the other 30 received rigid plate fixation( experimental group) . Patients' sternal were closed with wires or rigid plates, and the painness, sternal union and status of wires or rigid plates were followed up and assessed one week, three months and six months after procedures. Results All patients survived and were followed up. 117 rigid plates were implanted. There was no significant difference in pre-operative data, post-operative painness, sternal union and status of wires and plates between control and experimental group. No patient reached the standard of clinical sternal union one week post-operation, but all patients reached the standard of clinical sternal six months post-operation. One patient in control group suffered sternal nonunion, movement and wound infection after sternotomy. Conclusion Compared to wire closure, sternal closure with rigid plates is the same safe and effective.
