Objective:To explore the correlation between right atrial function parameters and prognosis in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) complicated with pulmonary hypertension.Methods:Eighty-four patients with COPD combined with pulmonary arterial hypertension treated with bosentan combined with milrinone admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University during the period of February 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the study subjects, and they were divided into the effective group (63 cases) and the ineffective group (21 cases) according to the treatment effect. Right cardiac function parameters were measured by Philips iE33 color ultrasonography before treatment and 72 h after treatment. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors affecting the treatment outcome of patients, and receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of right atrial function parameters in the poor prognosis of patients with COPD complicated with pulmonary hypertension.Results:The main pulmonary artery diameter (MPA), right ventricular base transverse diameter (RVd1), right ventricular middle transverse diameter (RVd2), right atrial diameter (RAd) and right ventricular free wall thickness (RVWT) in the effective group were lower than those in the ineffective group: (2.65 ± 0.23) cm vs. (2.90 ± 0.44) cm, (3.46 ± 0.43) cm vs. (3.76 ± 0.72) cm, (3.48 ± 0.42) cm vs. (3.88 ± 0.69) cm, (3.53 ± 0.81) cm vs. (4.03 ± 1.20) cm, (0.63 ± 0.12) cm vs. (0.72 ± 0.21) cm; end-diastolic to end-systolic tricuspid ring displacement (TAPSE) was higher than that in the ineffective group: (2.08 ± 0.32) cm vs. (1.82 ± 0.46) cm, there were statistical differences( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that RVd1 increased ( OR = 3.717, P<0.05), RVd2 increased ( OR = 2.162, P<0.05), RAd increased ( OR = 2.838, P<0.05) and TAPSE reduction ( OR = 1.704, P<0.05) were risk factors for treatment failure in patients. The results of ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of RVd1, RVd2, RAd, TAPSE in predicting the therapeutic effect of COPD patients with pulmonary hypertension were 0.820, 0.831, 0.872, 0.909, respectively. Conclusions:The independent influencing factors of ineffective patients with COPD combined with pulmonary arterial hypertension treated with bosentan combined with milrinone are the increase of structural parameters of the right heart and the decrease of systolic function parameters. The therapeutic effect of patients can be evaluated clinically according to the level of each parameter.

Objective To assess the effectiveness of combining problem-based learning(PBL),team-based learning(TBL),and clinical pathway(CP)in standardized training of periodontology residents.Methods A total of 48 residents who were transferred to the Department of Periodontology at the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January to October 2023 were ran-domly assigned to either the traditional teaching group or the PBL,TBL,and CP combined teaching group,with 24 participants in each group.The traditional teaching group followed conventional teaching methods,while the PBL,TBL,and CP combined teaching group utilized a combination of these three methods.Prior to completing their rotation,both groups underwent professional assessments as well as surveys on satisfaction with standardized training and self-evaluation.Results The professional examination scores ofcombined teaching group were significantly higher than those of the traditional teaching method group(P＜0.05).Both groups expressed satisfac-tion with standardized training and demonstrated proficiency in diagnosing and treating periodontitis through instruction;no statistically significant difference was observed between them(P＞0.05).However,compared to the traditional teaching group,students in the PBL,TBL,and CP combined teaching group showed significant improvements in doctor-patient communication skills,active informa-tion retrieval abilities,learning interest levels,team discussions,and clinical logical thinking abilities(P＜0.05).Conclusion Im-plementing a combination of PBL,TBL,and CP during standardized training of periodontology residents can enhance students'profes-sional examination scores and self-evaluation results,which promotes educational reform development by providing an objective basis.

Objective To evaluate the reliability of nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) in patients with Raynaud's phenomenon (RP). Methods A total of 302 participants with RP at Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital were examined using NVC with a 200× magni-fication to acquire images from six digits (the second,third,and fourth fingers of both hands) of patients with RP,and 3805 NVC images were obtained. Five rheumatologists assessed the obtained NVC images separately,using the European League against Rheumatism Study Group on Microcirculation in Rheumatic Diseases standardized capillaroscopy evaluation chart. Two months later,the same rheumatolo-gists re-evaluated one-fifth of the randomly selected patients. The intraclass correlation coefficient was used to analyze the inter-and intra-observer reliability. Results When evaluating NVC images,the inter-observer and intra-observer reliabilities of the five researchers were good,and the intraclass correlation coefficient values were 0.724-0.930 (P<0.001) and 0.841-0.939 (P<0.001),respectively. In the subgroup analysis of different patterns of NVC images,four out of five investigators showed moderate to good inter-observer agreement,and only one beginner had poor agreement in identifying normal,non-specific,and early patterns. Conclusion Rheumatologists with dif-ferent experience levels showed good agreement in evaluating NVC images in patients with RP,suggesting that NVC examination has good reliability and reproducibility.

Objective:To investigate the effects of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in treatment of high-risk multiple myeloma (MM) patients and its influencing factors of the prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 44 high-risk MM patients treated with allo-HSCT in Changzheng Hospital Affiliated of Naval Military Medical University from April 2003 to March 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The overall response rate (ORR), relapse rate, non-relapse-related death (NRM) rate, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) incidence of patients were also analyzed. Kaplan-Meier was used to analyze the overall survival (OS) rate and progression-free survival (PFS) rate after transplantation. Cox proportional hazard model was used to make regression analysis of the factors affecting the prognosis.Results:Among 44 patients, 38 cases could be evaluated for efficacy after transplantation. The median follow-up time was 111 months (0-216) months, 22 cases survived, 22 cases died, 21 cases relapsed. Before transplantation, complete remission (CR) rate was 29.5%(13/44), very good partial remission(VGPR) rate was 45.5%(20/44), partial remission (PR) rate was 22.7% (10/44), stable disease (SD) rate was 2.3% (1/44); After transplantation, CR rate was 71.7%(27/38), VGPR rate was 13.2% (5/38), PR rate was 13.2% (5/38), the progression of the disease (PD) rate 2.6% (1/38). The 5-year OS rate and PFS rate was 51.8% and 47.8%, the 10-year OS rate and PFS rate was 51.3% and 43.1%, respectively; the 5-year and 10-year cumulative disease relapse rate was 38.6% and 45.4%, the 5-year cumulative NRM rate was 25.0%. Acute GVHD rate was 38.6% (17/44) and grade 3-4 acute GVHD rate was 6.8% (3/44); chronic GVHD rate was 27.3% (12/44). Cox univariate and multivariate analysis showed that the use of bortezomib before transplantation ( HR = 3.461, 95% CI 1.211-9.880, P = 0.020) and post-transplant infection ( HR = 0.283, 95% CI 0.098-0.819, P = 0.020) were independent factors affecting OS after transplantation. Conclusions:Allo-HSCT can overcome the high-risk factors of MM and is worth to try for high-risk MM patients. The use of bortezomib before transplantation and post-transplant infection can be important factors affecting OS after transplantation.
