There are many difficulties in digital medical teaching, including new course content, multiple key and difficult points, wide knowledge coverage, large knowledge structure span, high requirements for teachers, and few shared resources for online teaching during the epidemic. This research aims to give full play to the advantages of our team in the field of digital medicine, and promote the construction of network resources of this course and its extensive development in more universities through the exploratory and research on the course construction and teaching mode of the Digital Medicine MOOC (massive open online course). The questionnaire study found that the satisfaction score of the average satisfaction score of MOOC teaching in terms of students' pre-class preview, quick grasp of knowledge points in class and after-class review reached more than 90 points, and the score of improving students' learning initiative was (88.10±10.87) points. It can be seen that the use of MOOC teaching mode can significantly help students to preview before class, master knowledge points in class and review after class, and improve students' initiative in learning. The research suggests that the production of Digital Medicine MOOC should keep the consistency and individuality of all knowledge points under the framework of digital medical knowledge; teachers should focus on the explanation of basic knowledge points and deepen in further step integrated with frontiers of this field; it’s suggested to make a separate MOOC on frontier knowledge and application explanation, so as to cope with the outdated courseware content caused by the development and update of this subject.

Objective:To investigate the effect of methoxyamine combined with target guided fluid in elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:90 elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy were randomly divided into methoxyamine group and control group, with 45 cases in each group. The patients in both groups were treated with intravenous inhalation combined anesthesia. The stroke volume variation (SVV) was maintained at 7%-10% and the central venous pressure (CVP) was 4-8 cmH 2O. In methoxyamine group, 3 μg/(kg·min) methoxyamine was continuously pumped, while the control group was pumped with the same amount of normal saline at the same speed. The intraoperative infusion volume, urine volume, bleeding volume, blood transfusion cases, intraoperative mean arterial pressure, heart rate, blood gas analysis results, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), creatinine, urea nitrogen level and postoperative exhaust time were compared between the two groups. Results:Compared with the control group, the patients in methoxyamine group had less infusion volume, urine volume, lower postoperative BNP level and heart rate, shorter postoperative exhaust time (all P<0.05), and higher mean arterial pressure ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in blood loss, blood transfusion cases, PaO 2, PaCO 2, pH, creatinine and urea nitrogen between the two groups (all P>0.05). In addition, the number of patients in the methoxyamine group who used pressor drugs was less than that in the control group ( P<0.05), and the frequency of bradycardia was more than that in the control group ( P<0.05). The proportion of tachycardia and urapidil was similar in the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Methoxyamine combined with target guided fluid therapy can reduce the intraoperative infusion volume of pancreaticoduodenectomy in elderly patients, stabilize circulation, shorten postoperative exhaust time, and contribute to the recovery of gastrointestinal function.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the predictors and outcomes of acute kidney injury (AKI) among patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). OBJECTIVE: This retrospective observational study was conducted among patients with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 admitted to Hankou Hospital between January, 5 and March 8, 2020. We evaluated the association of AKI with the demographic and biochemical parameters and clinical outcomes of the patients using univariate regression analysis. OBJECTIVE: Atotal of 287 COVID-19 patients, including 55 with AKI and 232 without AKI, were included in the analysis. Compared with the patients without AKI, the patients with AKI were older, predominantly male, and were more likely to have hypoxia and pre-existing hypertension and cerebrovascular diseases. The patients with AKI also had higher levels of white blood cells, D-dimer, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, a higher prevalence of hyperkalemia, lower lymphocyte counts, and higher chest computed tomographic scores. The incidence of stage 1 AKI was 14.3% and that of stage 2 or 3 AKI was 4.9%. The patients with AKI had much higher mortality rate than those without AKI. OBJECTIVE AKI is an important complication of COVID-19. An older age, a male gender, multiple pre- existing comorbidities, lymphopenia, increased infection indicators, elevated D-dimer, and impaired heart and liver functions are all potential risk factors ofAKI. COVID- 19 patients with AKI that progresses into stages 2 or 3 AKI have a high mortality rate. Prevention of AKI and monitoring kidney function is critical in the care of COVID-19 patients.

Laparoscopic radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma (LRRHC), due to the existing state of affairs of complexity of the surgery and the poor prognosis of hilar cholangiocarcinoma, is extremely challenging and full of controversy. LRRHC is seriously lagged behind compared with the application of laparoscopic operation in hepatic, pancreatic and gastrointestinal surgery. This article reviewed the history, minimally invasiveness, indications, technical difficulties and other key points of the current development of LRRHC.

Objective? To explore the effects of applying Information-Motivation-Behavioral skills model (IMB) on the improvement of life quality for patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Methods? Totally 90 patients with CHF were selected by convenient sampling and divided into two groups based on random number table with 45 cases in each group. The control group received routine nursing care, while the experiment group received the nursing invention guided by the IMB besides the routine nursing care. The Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ) was used to evaluate the CHF patients＇ improvment status of their life quality before and after intervention. Results? Before intervention, there were not statistical differences between the experimental group(65.11±11.31) and control group(66.05±14.72) in terms of their life quality (P＞0.05). After intervention, the score from MLHFQ in the experiment group (50.99±14.56) was lower than the control group (58.57±12.95) with statistical significance (P＜0.05). Conclusions? The application of IMB model can effectively improve life quality of CHF patients.

A mangiferin aglycon derivative J99745 has been identified as a potent xanthine oxidase (XOD) inhibitor by previous study. This study aimed to evaluate the hypouricemic effects of J99745 in experimental hyperuricemia mice, and explore the underlying mechanisms. Mice were orally administered 600 mg/kg xanthine once daily for 7 days and intraperitoneally injected 250 mg/kg oxonic acid on the 7th day to induce hyperuricemia. Meanwhile, J99745 (3, 10, and 30 mg/kg), allopurinol (20 mg/kg) or benzbromarone (20 mg/kg) were orally administered to mice for 7 days. On the 7th day, uric acid and creatinine in serum and urine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), malondialdehyde (MDA) content and XOD activities in serum and liver were determined. Morphological changes in kidney were observed using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. Hepatic XOD, renal urate transporter 1 (URAT1), glucose transporter type 9 (GLUT9), organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) and ATP-binding cassette transporter G2 (ABCG2) were detected by Western blot and real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The results showed that J99745 at doses of 10 and 30 mg/kg significantly reduced serum urate, and enhanced fractional excretion of uric acid (FEUA). H&E staining confirmed that J99745 provided greater nephroprotective effects than allopurinol and benzbromarone. Moreover, serum and hepatic XOD activities and renal URAT1 expression declined in J99745-treated hyperuricemia mice. In consistence with the ability to inhibit XOD, J99745 lowered serum MDA content in hyperuricemia mice. Our results suggest that J99745 exerts urate-lowering effect by inhibiting XOD activity and URAT1 expression, thus representing a promising candidate as an anti-hyperuricemia agent.

Objective To assess the mid-term and long-term efficacy of the permanent inferior vena cava filter in the treatment of deep vein thrombosis of lower limb and discuss the clinical significance of inferior vena cava filter.Methods Retrospectively analyze on the 86 cases with deep vein thrombosis of lower limb (41 males and 45 females,aged 50 to 94 years,mean age was 71.8 years) treated with implantation of permanent inferior vena cava filter in inferior vena cava from Janunary 2010 to October 2015.In these patients,there were 51 cases with embolism in the left leg,25 cases in the right leg,10 cases in both legs and 6 cases were accompanied with pulmonary embolism.The cases without contraindication underwent catheter directed thrombolysis and even percutaneous transluminal angioplasty or stents subsequently if necessary after inferior vena cava filter implantation.All the cases with no contraindication were treated with anticoagulant therapy.Results All the 86 patients were implanted inferior vena cava filter (B.Braun Vena Tech LP 76 and Cordis TrapEase 10)successfully.Sisty-five cases were underwent inferior wena cava filter implantation only,while 21 cases were treated with inferior vena cava filter implantation and catheter directed thrombolysis or even percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stents.During the follow-up period(12 to 81 months,mean time was 51 months),27 patients died dueing to malignant tumor(17 cases) and other diseases (10 cases) rather than complications caused by inferior vena cava filter.Three patients had recurrence of deep vein thrombosis and 2 patients suffered from the thrombosis induced by stenosis of stents.Inferior vena cava filter appered tilted with angle less than 15 degrees in 6 cases.Three cases suffered from new thrombosis below the filter and 2 cases complained of the filter migration.No case was found with fracture of filter,perforation of the inferior vena cava,bleeding or pulmonary embolism(new onset or recurrent).Conclusions Application of permanent inferior vena cava filter may cause complications,though it is an effective approach to prevent pulmonary embolism in patients with deep vein thrombosis of lower limb.However,permanent inferior vena cava filter may be fit for patients with old age,incurable cancer or limited expected life.

Objective To investigate the effect of tiaozhi granules on the autophagy of HU-VECs in the cell,protein and molecular levels.Methods HUVECs were induced by tiaozhi granule medicated serum,6-amino-3-methyl purine (3-MA) and rapamycin.MTT was used to detect the cell viability after 48 hours with tiaozhi granule medicated serum.Western blot was used to detect the expressive level of LC3-Ⅱ.Immunofluorescence was used to detect change in the numbers of autophagosomes.Results After HUVECs was processed by tiaozhi granule medicated serum,the cell viability had not change,the relative expression of autophagy related protein LC3-Ⅱ increased,and the number of autophagosomes increased (P ＜ 0.05).After HUVECs was processed by tiaozhi granule medicated serum and rapamycin,cell viability had no change,while the relative expression of autophagy related protein LC3-Ⅱ and the number of autophagosomes decreased significantly when compared with the results of intervention with rapamycin only (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Tiaozhi granules can inhibit excessive autophagy of endothelial cells and promote moderate autophagy in endothelial cells.
