With the gradual development and popularization of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in China, some prefecture-level medical institutions in China have carried out and formed their own pre-hospital extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) model. Although the development levels of various prefecture-level cities are uneven and the start times vary, at present, the prefecture-level hospitals in China generally go through the development process of ECMO-in-hospital ECPR-pre-hospital ECPR-professional medical recovery center. Among them, in-hospital ECPR has the advantages of timely resuscitation, guaranteed quality of resuscitation, and fast activation speed of the ECPR team, and currently has a high success rate, with a low proportion of patients with neurological complications. However, pre-hospital ECPR is more challenging, requiring the coordination between pre-hospital and in-hospital emergency forces, multidisciplinary cooperation, and the quality of resuscitation before ECPR cannot be fully guaranteed, the long duration of patient's low perfusion, and other factors make the survival rate of patients without neurological damage obviously lower than that of in-hospital ECPR. China has a large population base, and comprehensive domestic and foreign data show that there should be no less than several million cases of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest under the age of 60 every year, so there is much to be done to improve the survival rate of pre-hospital ECPR. Pre-hospital ECPR is a project of concentrated resources and technology, which has high requirements for the multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment capabilities of medical institutions. The optimization of the implementation process of in-hospital and pre-hospital ECPR teams, the advancement of the timing of ECPR intervention, the selection of patients, the support and construction of multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment capabilities after ECPR, and the management of related complications and risk factors are closely related to the prognosis of ECPR patients. The recoverability of the brain and heart is currently the key factor restricting the further improvement of the survival rate of patients after ECPR. Considering that the recovery of neurological function mainly depends on the duration of the early low perfusion, the in-hospital treatment after the implementation of ECPR is mainly the low-temperature brain protection strategy, the effect of which is still controversial, so the recovery of cardiac function is the key that seriously restricts the survival of patients after ECPR in addition to neurological prognosis. The recoverability of the heart after ECPR can be implemented from multiple angles: the research on pathophysiological issues such as the matching of the heart itself after the implementation of ECPR, and the matching between the heart and ECMO, and the proposal of corresponding countermeasures will help to improve the survival rate of patients after ECPR. The large population and the potential salvageable population make the development of ECPR technology in China's tertiary hospitals urgent and necessary, with challenges and opportunities coexisting.

Objective:To investigate the arsenic metabolism pattern and possible influencing factors in the population in drinking-water-borne endemic arsenic poisoning (drinking-water-borne arsenic poisoning for short) areas.Methods:In December 2004, a cluster sampling method was used to select arsenic poisoning population (arsenic poisoning group) and healthy population (control group) in drinking-water-borne arsenic poisoning area of Bayannur City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region as the survey subjects. A questionnaire survey was conducted. Arsenic content in drinking water at home of survey subjects, the levels of urinary arsenic and its metabolites, including [trivalent arsenic (As Ⅲ), inorganic arsenic (iAs), monomethylarsenic acid (pentavalent, MMA V), dimethylarsenic acid (pentavalent, DMA V), total arsenic (tAs), percentage of inorganic arsenic (iAs%), percentage of monomethylarsenic acid (MMA%), percentage of dimethylarsenic acid (DMA%), primary methylation index (PMI), secondary methylation index (SMI)] were tested using high performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry; nail arsenic and nail selenium levels were tested using atomic fluorescence spectrometer. The influencing factors of arsenic metabolism pattern were analyzed by multiple linear regression. Results:A total of 536 survey subjects were included, including 155 individuals in the arsenic poisoning group and 381 in the control group. The water arsenic level ranged from 0.0 to 825.7 μg/L. Compared with the control group, there was no significant difference in the distribution of gender, education level and dental fluorosis in the arsenic poisoning group ( P > 0.05), but there were significant differences in the distribution of age, marital status, smoking, drinking and water arsenic ( P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, the levels of urinary As Ⅲ, iAs, MMA V, DMA V, tAs, MMA%, MMA/DMA and nail arsenic in the arsenic poisoning group were higher ( P < 0.05), while the levels of urinary DMA%, SMI and nail selenium were lower ( P < 0.05); but there was no statistically significant difference in the levels of urinary iAs% and PMI ( P > 0.05). Gender, education level, depth of wells, water arsenic, total number of wells and nail arsenic were the influencing factors of urinary As Ⅲ (β = - 19.82, - 23.83, 0.61, 0.21, 7.26, 2.98, P < 0.05). Age, depth of wells, water arsenic and nail arsenic were the influencing factors of urinary tAs (β = 3.18, 3.25, 1.31, 15.59, P < 0.05). Gender, education level, depth of wells, water arsenic, total number of wells and nail arsenic were the influencing factors of urinary iAs (β = - 20.47, - 25.90, 0.64, 0.25, 7.87, 3.11, P < 0.05). Age, gender, education level, water arsenic and nail arsenic were the influencing factors of urinary MMA V (β = 0.52, - 17.07, - 21.84, 0.22, 2.77, P < 0.05). Age, depth of wells, water arsenic and nail arsenic were the influencing factors of urinary DMA V (β = 2.35, 2.47, 0.85, 9.22, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Compared with healthy individuals, there are differences in arsenic metabolism pattern among individuals with drinking-water-borne arsenic poisoning. Age, gender, education level, depth of wells, water arsenic, total number of wells and nail arsenic may be influencing factors of different arsenic metabolism patterns.

Objective:To analyze the main causes of death of residents in arsenic poisoning areas of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, providing a scientific basis for preventing and controlling the long-term effects of arsenic poisoning and ensuring the health of residents.Methods:The data on the causes of death among residents in arsenic poisoning areas of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region from 2016 to 2021 were collected from the population death information registration management system and the population information system of various league and city statistical bureaus in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Residents were divided into exposed and non exposed groups based on whether they drank high arsenic water. SPSS 25.0 software was used to statistically analyze the crude mortality rate (CDR), standardized mortality rate (SMR), disease-specific mortality rate, proportion of causes of death, and order of causes of death.Results:Over the past 6 years, there was a total of 9 583 deaths, with an average annual CDR of 633.12/100 000 and an average annual SMR of 446.65/100 000. The CDR of each year showed a decreasing trend over time (χ 2 = 1 058.86, P < 0.001). Male CDR was higher than female CDR (χ 2 = 325.04, P < 0.001). Heart diseases and malignant tumors were the main causes of death for residents in arsenic poisoning areas, with proportions of 25.00% (2 396/9 583) and 18.86% (1 807/9 583), respectively. The top three leading causes of malignant tumor death were lung cancer, liver cancer and gastric cancer. Among residents who died from various diseases and malignant tumors, the SMR of the exposed group was higher than that of the non exposed group (χ 2 = 147.08, 26.26, P < 0.001). Conclusions:The main causes of death of residents in arsenic poisoning areas in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region are heart diseases and malignant tumors, with lung cancer, liver cancer, and gastric cancer being the top three leading causes of death for malignant tumors. Although the arsenic poisoning areas in the entire region have basically achieved water improvement, the long-term effects of chronic arsenic exposure still exist.

Objective To explore the effect of a phased rehabilitation training programme to relieve shoulder dys-function in patients after neck dissection and to provide effective solutions for postoperative shoulder joint function recov-ery of patients.Methods This study has been reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee,and informed consent has been obtained from patients.A phased rehabilitaiton training programme for the shoulder after neck dessection was developed through literature review and discussion,and 70 eligible patients from Hospital of Stomatology,Sun Yat-sen University from December 2020 to April 2021 were selected and randomly divided into the test group and control group(35 patients in each group).The control group underwent motor rehabilitation training from 6 weeks postoperative to 1 year after surgery,such as shoulder mobility and coordination training and small range of motion training of the neck,while the test group took part in a rehabilitation training program that included familiarization maneuver training,protective rehabilitation,exercise rehabilitation,and resistance training in the following four stages:preoperative,postop-erative general anesthesia and awake until the removal of stitches,the removal of stitches until 6 weeks after surgery,and 6 weeks after surgery until 1 year after surgery.The frequency of training in both groups was at least 3 days per week,and the length of each training session was 10-15 min.The intensity of exercise was 2-3 points on the Borg Conscious Ex-ercise Intensity Scale(i.e.,mild-to-moderate tachypnea or fatigue).The neck dissection injury index(NDII)was used to evaluate the quality of life related to shoulder joint function at four time points:preoperative,postoperative 3 months,postoperative 6 months,and postoperative 12 months.The higher the score,the better the quality of life.Results 28 cases in the test group and 32 cases in the control group completed a one-year follow-up.At 3 and 6 months postopera-tive,the NDII of the test group was significantly higher than that of the control group[3 months postoperative:test group(93.48±9.36)vs.control group(80.00±11.34)(P＜0.001),6 months postoperative:test group(98.21±4.76)vs.control group(90.70±9.12)(P＜0.001)];12 months after surgery,the NDII of the test group(97.23±4.88)was still higher than that of the control group(96.33±4.49),but the difference was not statistically significant(P=0.458).The difference in NDII scores among subjects at 3,6,and 12 months after surgery was statistically significant in each group(P＜0.001).Conclusion The application of the phased rehabilitation training method in neck dissection patients has a feasibility and could improve the quality of life of patients'shoulder joint function within 6 months after surgery.

Objective To describe the distribution characteristics of knee and ankle joint range of motion and muscle atrophy related indexes in patients with Kashin-Beck disease(KBD)in Shaanxi Province so as to explore the correlation of knee and ankle joint range of motion(ROM)with muscle atrophy indexes and provide reference for clinical characteristics analysis of KBD patients.Methods To investigate the registered KBD patients from KBD areas in Shaanxi Province,we measured the general demographic data of the patients were collected and the ROM of the knee joint(flexion and extension),the ankle joint(dorsiflexion and plantar flexion),and the muscle atrophy related indexes such as the upper arm circumference,thigh circumference,calf circumference and grip strength.According to the population characteristics,i.e.,gender,age,body mass index(BMI)and KBD grade,the median and quartile of joint ROM and muscle atrophy of KBD patients were reported,and then the differences in each index among different groups were analyzed.Partial correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between indicators after controlling for variables such as gender,age and BMI.Results A total of 480 patients with KBD were investigated in this study,who consisted of 249(51.9％)males and 231(48.1％)females,with an average age of(63.10±7.32)years and an average BMI of(23.49±8.90)kg/m2.The knee flexion ROM,knee extension ROM,ankle dorsiflexion ROM and ankle plantar flexion ROM were[105.0(95.0,120.0)]°,[0.0(-15.0,0.0)]°,[5.0(0.0,15.0)]° and[20.0(15.0,30.0)]°,respectively,in KBD patients in Shaanxi Province.The left thigh circumference,right thigh circumference,left calf circumference,right calf circumference,and upper arm circumference were[43.0(40.0,47.0)]cm,[43.0(39.0,47.0)]cm,[29.0(27.0,32.0)]cm,[29.5(27.0,32.0)]cm,[27.0(25.0,30.0)]cm,respectively.The left hand grip strength and right hand grip strength were[13.4(9.5,18.4)]kg and[13.9(9.8,18.2)]kg,respectively.With the increase of age,the extension range of the left and right knee joints of KBD patients showed a decreasing trend(H=31.499,31.847;all P＜0.001).The range of motion of bilateral knee flexion was higher in the normal BMI group than in the overweight or obese group,with statistically significant differences(H=7.753,12.333;P=0.021,0.002).The knee flexion,thigh circumference,and calf circumference of the left and right sides showed a decreasing trend under different KBD grades(H=14.345,17.256,8.000,8.462,8.558,9.633;all P＜0.05).Correlation analysis showed that knee flexion ROM was positively correlated with thigh circumference,calf circumference,and grip strength in patients with KBD(all P＜0.05).There was a positive correlation between knee extension ROM and thigh circumference in patients with KBD(P＜0.01).Conclusion The impaired joint ROM and muscle atrophy are serious in KBD patients in Shaanxi Province,and there is a correlation between joint motion and muscle atrophy.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the outcome of skin injury and urinary arsenic methylation metabolism levels in people exposed to arsenic through drinking water.Methods:Using cluster sampling method, permanent residents from drinking-water-borne endemic arsenic poisoning areas in Bayannur City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region were selected as survey subjects in 2004 (before water improvement). In 2017 (after water improvement), 74 survey subjects from 2004 were tracked and followed up. Urine samples were collected from survey subjects and high-performance liquid chromatography inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was used to detect the levels of arsenic methylation metabolites in urine. According to the "Diagnosis of Endemic Arsenic Poisoning" (WS/T 211-2015), the clinical grading (normal, suspicious, mild, moderate and severe) of skin injury of the survey subjects and the outcome of 2017 (improved, unchanged, aggravated) were assessed. A database was established and SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:The clinical grading ratios of skin injuries among survey subjects in 2004 and 2017 were compared, the differences were statistically significant (normal, suspicious, mild, moderate and severe: 38, 18, 4, 14 cases in 2004 and 27, 31, 3, 13 cases in 2017, χ 2 = 53.02, P < 0.001). Compared with 2004, in 2017, the levels of total arsenic (tAs), inorganic arsenic (iAs), monomethylarsenic (MMA), dimethylarsenic (DMA), percentage of inorganic arsenic (iAs%), and ratio of monomethylarsenic to dimethylarsenic (MMA/DMA) in the urine of survey subjects were low, and the differences were statistically significant ( Z = - 8.24, - 9.07, - 7.81, - 8.04, - 8.24, - 3.56, P < 0.001). The levels of dimethylarsenic percentage (DMA%), monomethylation rate (PMI) and dimethylation rate (SMI) were higher, and the differences were statistically significant ( Z = - 6.39, - 8.24, - 3.52, P < 0.001). In 2004, patients with different clinical grading of skin injuries had different outcomes in 2017 (χ 2 = 30.80, P < 0.001). There were statistically significant differences in tAs, iAs, MMA and DMA variation in urine among skin injury patients with different outcomes ( H = 10.62, 9.35, 8.80, 9.13, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Improving water can significantly reduce the levels of tAs, iAs, MMA, and DMA in the urine of arsenic exposed individuals. The outcome of skin injury in individuals exposed to arsenic through drinking water is related to the variation of urinary arsenic methylation metabolites tAs, iAs, MMA, and DMA.

Objective:To explore and analyze the predictive value of EuroSCORE Ⅱ and SYNTAX Ⅱ scores for clinical outcomes in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery.Methods:A total of 500 coronary artery disease (CAD) patients who underwent CABG in Shanxi Cardiovascular Hospital from April 2014 to July 2023 were selected as the study subjects, all patients were given EuroSCORE Ⅱand SYNTAX Ⅱ scores to evaluate the predictive value of EuroSCOREⅡfor perioperative mortality and SYNTAX Ⅱ for 4-year mortality. Univariate and multivariate Logistic analysis were employed to analyze the independent risk factors for perioperative and 4-year mortality.Results:There were 3 deaths during the perioperative period, with a mortality rate of 0.60%, the predicted mortality rate of EuroSCOREⅡwas 1.71%; there were 21 deaths at 4 years after surgery, with a mortality rate of 4.23% and the predicted mortality rate of SYNTAX Ⅱwas 9.02%. Logistic regression analysis showed that left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was the only independent protective factor for perioperative mortality, and advanced age was the only independent risk factor for 4-year postoperative mortality in patients ( P<0.05). The analysis of the working characteristic curve of the subjects found that the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ( ROC) of EuroSCORE Ⅱ for perioperative mortality was 0.782, and the area under ROC curve of SYNTAX Ⅱfor postoperative 4-year mortality was 0.743. Conclusion:Both EuroSCORE Ⅱand SYNTAX Ⅱhave certain predictive value for perioperative mortality and postoperative 4-year mortality in patients undergoing CABG, respectively, but the predicted mortality rate is relatively higher.

Objective : To investigate the protective effect of dulaglutide on acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) . Methods : Twenty⁃four male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into Control group (normal saline) , LPS group (LPS 15 mg/kg) , LPS + Dul group (LPS 15 mg/kg + Dulaglutide 0. 6 mg/kg) and Dul group (Dulaglutide 0. 6 mg/kg) with 6 mice in each group. The drug was administered by intraperitoneal injection. After drug intervention for 24 h , the body weight and kidney weight of mice were recorded , and kidney tissue and serum samples were collected. The pathological changes in kidney tissue were observed by HE staining. The serum urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (CRE) levels were detected by the kit. The levels of cytokines interleukin (IL⁃6) , tumor necrosis factor (TNF⁃α ) and IL⁃1β in the kidney were detected by qRT⁃PCR. The contents of macrophage marker F4/80 and myeloperoxidase (MPO) in kidney were determined by immunohistochemistry. Results : Compared with Control group , mice in LPS group lost weight and increased kidney weight ( P < 0. 001) . Moreover, the levels of BUN and CRE increased (P < 0. 001 , P < 0. 01) . Meanwhile , the mRNA levels of IL⁃6 , IL⁃1β and TNF⁃α increased (P < 0. 05) . There was obvious pathological damage in kidney tissue. In addition , macrophage and neutrophil infiltration increased in LPS group ( P < 0. 001) . Compared with LPS group , mice in LPS + Dul group gained weight and lost kidney weight (P < 0. 05 , P < 0. 001) . Moreover, the levels of BUN and CRE in LPS + Dul group decreased (P < 0. 01) . The renal histological scores were reduced (P < 0. 05) . In addition , the levels of IL⁃6 , IL⁃1β and TNF⁃α in kidney tissue decreased (P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01) . Moreover, the infiltration of macrophages and neutrophils in kidney was reduced (P < 0. 01) . Conclusion Dulaglutide has a protective effect on LPS⁃induced sepsis AKI , which may be related to reduce the expression of inflammatory media⁃ tors and decrease the infiltration of inflammatory cell.

Objective: To explore the characteristics of perioperative venous therapy in patients undergoing simultaneous repair and reconstruction of oral cancer after radical resection, and prevention of femoral vein catheterization complications, to provide clinical evidence for venous therapy. Methods: A retrospective analysis was perfomed to assess the choice of venous access and its effects in 95 patients undergoing simultaneous reconstruction due to oral cancer during the perioperative period. Results : In total, 95 patients underwent successful indwelling femoral vein catheterization with double lumens, and a midline catheter and peripheral intravenous indwelling needles were used to complete the intravenous therapy after surgery. Among the femoral vein complications, 1 case was complicated with lower extremity venous thrombosis (incidence was 1.1%), and 17 cases were complicated with puncture point bleeding (incidence was17.9%). Two cases of puncture site bleeding were noted among 28 cases using a midline catheter. Local phlebitis and infiltration were the most common complications of peripheral venous catheters. The difference in catheter-related complications among different types of catheters was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The complication rate of the midline catheter was lower than that noted with femoral vein catheterization and peripheral intravenous indwelling needles. Conclusion Based on the treatment characteristics of patients, proper venous catheters should be established during the perioperative period. The application of a femoral vein catheter during the operation combined with the use of a midline catheter and peripheral venous indwelling needles after the operation can satisfy intravenous therapy needs in patients undergoing simultaneous repair and reconstruction for oral cancer, and the midline catheter can effectively reduce venous catheter-related complications.

Objective:To understand the fever rate, disease distribution, fever degree and fever related factors of the patients in the same period of oral and maxillofacial tumor repair and reconstruction.Method:A retrospective analysis was performed on 153 patients who underwent radical treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumors from January 2018 to December 2018 in the affiliated stomatological hospital of sun yat-sen university. The patients were divided into fever group and non fever group, and their fever influencing factors were analyzed.Result:Among the 153 patients, 97 (63.40%) had fever symptoms.It’s mainly moderate fever. The incidence of fever was the highest in gingival cancer and oropharyngeal cancer.The results of univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in serum albumin, tracheotomy and infection between the two groups ( χ2= 7.74, 7.48, 8.58, P<0.01 or 0.05).Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that infection and tracheotomy were independent influencing factors for postoperative fever in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumor repair and reconstruction (or = 4.74, 2.47, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors undergoing radical treatment and simultaneous repair and reconstruction are more likely to have fever after surgery. Tracheotomy patients and patients with infection need to be paid more attention. They need to be strengthened tracheotomy care and actively prevent infection, so as to reduce the postoperative fever rate, and make the patients with oral malignant tumors repaired and reconstructed at the same time go through the perioperative period smoothly.
