Objective:To explore the efficacy of online pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) management among community-dwelling patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:This study was a single-center randomized controlled trail with an unblinded design. A total of 130 patients with stable COPD who visited Zhuanqiao Community Health Service Center in Shanghai Minhang District from October 2020 to March 2022 were randomly divided into study group and control group with 65 cases in each group. Both groups received conventional treatment, while patients in study group attended online rehabilitation management, including face-to-face rehabilitation instruction and multiple online guidance. Pulmonary ventilation function including forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV 1) and percentage of forced expiratory volume in the first second to forced expiratoty volume (FEV 1%pred), modified British Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale (mMRC), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease assessment test (CAT), score of 6 minutes walking distance (6MWD) and DOSE (dyspnea, degree of airflow obstruction, smoking status, the number of exacerbation) index were measured at baseline and after 8 weeks of rehabilitation, and compared between two groups. Results:The baseline data of the two groups were comparable. After 8 weeks of management, FVC, FEV 1, FEV 1%pred, mMRC, CAT, 6MWD and DOSE index of both groups were improved compared with the baseline level(control group: t=-7.799, -7.581, -9.010, 3.565, 9.887, -16.677, 3.795; study group: t=-12.623, -13.914, -17.644, 7.404, 22.457, -26.826, 7.968; all P<0.05). The FEV 1%pred, CAT and 6MWD in the study group were better than those in the control group ( t=-2.939, 2.277,-2.130, all P<0.05); while there were no significant differences in FVC, FEV 1, mMRC and DOSE index between the two groups( t=-0.162, -1.280, 0.925, 1.939,all P>0.05). Conclusions:The online pulmonary rehabilitation management can better improve lung function, dyspnea symptoms and exercise tolerance of patients with stable COPD, which can be used for rehabilitation training and management of community-dwelling patients.

Objective To investigate the anticoagulation status of patients with atrial fibrillation(AF)-related acute ischemic stroke(AIS)after revascularization therapy in the real world.Methods A retrospective study was performed on patients diagnosed as AIS and AF from Jan.2019 to Jan.2022 at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University.Patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis(IVT),endovascular thrombectomy(EVT),or both were enrolled.Clinical information,timing of anticoagulation initiation,treatment regimens,and outcomes were documented and statistically analyzed.Additionally,a questionnaire was administered to the primary physicians to understand reasons for delaying or not initiating anticoagulation.Results A total of 189 patients with AF-related AIS met the screening criteria,including 86(45.5%)cases in the IVT group,63(33.3%)cases in the EVT group,and 40(21.2%)cases in the IVT+EVT group.The mean age of 189 patients was(72.90±9.23)years old.There were 93(49.2%)female patients.Anticoagulation was initiated within 14 d after revascularization therapy in 36.0%(68/189)of patients,with the highest rate in the IVT group(58.8%,40/68),followed by the EVT group(22.1%,15/68)and IVT+EVT group(19.1%,13/68).A significant difference was found in the proportion of patients receiving anticoagulation within 14 d among the 3 groups(P=0.020).Univariate analysis was performed on the clinical data of patients who initiated anticoagulation within 14 d after revascularization therapy(68 cases)and those who delayed or did not initiate anticoagulation(121 cases).The results showed that there were significant differences in the stroke history,National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score before revascularization therapy,Alberta Stroke Program early computed tomography score,modified Rankin scale(mRs)score before revascularization therapy,imaging characteristics(lesions near cortex,large infarction,severe stenosis or occlusion of major intracranial arteries),revascularization therapy method,NIHSS score 3 d after revascularization therapy,and intracranial hemorrhagic transformation after revascularization therapy between the 2 groups(all P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that higher NIHSS scores 3 d after revascularization therapy(odds ratio[OR]=1.113,95%confidence interval[CI]1.053-1.176,P＜0.001)and the presence of intracranial hemorrhage after revascularization therapy(OR=6.098,95%CI 2.004-18.193,P=0.001)were significant factors that contraindicated the initiation of anticoagulation.Large infarcts(40.8%),infarct location(35.8%),and hemorrhagic transformation after stroke(40.8%)were the common reasons cited by physicians for not initiating anticoagulation.In the 90-d prognosis of patients with AF-related AIS,6 patients had bleeding events,and 116 patients had a good prognosis(mRS score of 0-2).The 90-d good prognosis rate in the initiated anticoagulation group within 14 d after revascularization therapy(89.7%,61/68)was significantly higher than that in the delayed or non-anticoagulation group(45.5%,55/121;P＜0.001).Conclusion For patients with AF-related AIS who receive IVT,EVT or IVT+EVT,it is safe to initiate anticoagulation early after revascularization therapy,but the timing of anticoagulation in most patients is later than the currently recommended anticoagulation timing.

Clinical data of a case of Epstein-Barr virus-associated smooth muscle tumor with non-human immunodeficiency virus/transplantation admitted in the Department of Nephrology and Rheumatology, Hunan Children′s Hospital in May 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.The 6 years and 7 months old girl presented with bilateral hip pain for more than 1 year.Imaging examination revealed multiple nodular lesions in the central nervous system and lungs.Arthritis was the first manifestation in this case, and as a result, the patient was misdiagnosed as juvenile idiopathic arthritis.Finally, the patient was pathologically diagnosed as Epstein-Barr virus-associated smooth muscle tumor, which was a rare tumor associated with immunosuppression.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and survival of newly diagnosed follicular lymphoma (FL) patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) component.Methods:1845 newly diagnosed FL patients aged ≥ 18 years with grades 1-3a in 11 medical centers in China from 2000 to 2020 were included, and patients with DLBCL component were screened. The clinical data and survival data of the patients were retrospectively analyzed, and the prognostic factors were screened by univariate and multivariate analysis.Results:146 patients (7.9% ) with newly diagnosed FL had DLBCL component. The median age was 56 (25-83) years, 79 males (54.1% ) . The pathology of 127 patients showed the proportion of DLBCL component. Patients were divided into two groups according to whether the proportion of DLBCL component was ≥ 50% . The study found that patients with DLBCL component ≥ 50% had higher grade 3 ratio (94.3% vs 91.9% , P=0.010) , Ki-67 index ≥ 70% ratio (58.5% vs 32.9% , P=0.013) and PET-CT SUVmax ≥ 13 ratio (72.4% vs 46.3% , P=0.030) than patients with DLBCL component<50% . All patients received CHOP or CHOP like ± rituximab chemotherapy. The overall response rate (ORR) was 88.2% , and the complete response (CR) rate was 76.4% . In the groups with different proportions of DLBCL component, there was no significant difference in the remission rate after induction treatment and the incidence of disease progression within 2 years after initiation of treatment (POD24) ( P<0.05) . The overall estimated 5-year progression free survival (PFS) rate was 58.9% , and the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 90.4% . The 5-year OS rate of POD24 patients was lower than that of non POD24 patients (70.3% vs 98.5% , P<0.001) . Compared with non maintenance treatment of rituximab, maintenance treatment of rituximab could not benefit the 5-year PFS rate (57.7% vs 58.8% , P=0.543) , and the 5-year OS rate had a benefit trend, but the difference was not statistically significant (100% vs 87.8% , P=0.082) . Multivariate analysis showed that failure to reach CR after induction treatment was an independent risk factor for PFS ( P=0.006) , while LDH higher than normal was an independent risk factor for OS ( P=0.031) . Conclusion:FL patients with DLBCL component ≥50% have more invasive clinical and pathological features. CHOP/CHOP like ± rituximab regimen can improve the clinical efficacy of patients. Rituximab maintenance therapy can not benefit the PFS and OS of patients. Failure to reach CR after induction therapy was the independent unfavorable factor for PFS.

Objective: To observe the efficacy of mild moxibustion combined with arthroscopic meniscal repair in the treatment of meniscal injury and to explore its action mechanism. Methods: Ninety-eight patients with meniscal injury were divided into a surgery group and a moxibustion plus surgery group by the random number table method, with 49 cases in each group. Both groups received arthroscopic meniscal repair, and the moxibustion plus surgery group was treated with add-on mild moxibustion. The Lysholm score, visual analog scale (VAS) score, and mobility of the affected knee were measured before and after treatment, and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) levels were measured in the fluid of the affected knee joint. The healing of the meniscus was recorded at a follow-up visit 3 months after the surgery. Results: After treatment, the Lysholm score increased, the VAS score decreased in both groups, and the intra-group differences in both groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). The Lysholm score was higher in the moxibustion plus surgery group than in the surgery group, and the VAS score was lower in the moxibustion plus surgery group than in the surgery group. The differences between groups in both scores were statistically significant (P<0.05). The mobility of the affected knee joint increased in both groups (P<0.05), and it was greater in the moxibustion plus surgery group than in the surgery group (P<0.05). When compared with pretreatment, the levels of TGF-β1 and PDGF in the fluid of the knee joint increased in both groups (P<0.05), and the levels of TGF-β1 and PDGF in the fluid of the affected knee joint were higher in the moxibustion plus surgery group than in the surgery group (P<0.05). The healing of the meniscus in the moxibustion plus surgery group was significantly better than that in the surgery group at the follow-up visit 3 months after the surgery (P<0.05). Conclusion: The effect of mild moxibustion combined with arthroscopic meniscal repair is better than the surgery alone in improving knee function, relieving pain, increasing mobility of the affected knee, and promoting meniscal healing, which may be related to the up-regulation of TGF-β1 and PDGF levels in the fluid of knee joint.

Objective:To explore the value of 3D/4D translabial ultrasound in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of female urethral diverticulum.Methods:The paired chi-square test was used to compare the diagnostic accuracy of 2D translabial ultrasound and 3D/4D translabial ultrasound in 21 suspected urethral diverticulum patients who visited the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University from November 2013 to January 2020. And Kappa consistency test was used to evaluate the consistency between these two methods and the pathological results.Results:All 21 patients with suspected urethral diverticulum were diagnosed by postoperative pathology, of which 16 cases were urethral diverticula and 5 cases were paraurethral cysts. The typical appearance of urethral diverticulum on 3D/4D translabial ultrasound was a cystic structure traversing the urethral rhabdosphincter. Additionally, septa, calcification or solid neoplasm can also be seen in some cases. The sensitivity/specificity of 2D translabial ultrasound and 3D/4D translabial ultrasound were 75.00%/100% and 93.75%/100%, respectively, no statistical differences were found both in sensitivity and specificity between these two methods(all P>0.05). The Kappa consistency test showed that the consistency between 2D translabial ultrasound and pathological diagnosis was general (Kappa=0.588, P=0.003), while the consistency between 3D/4D translabial ultrasound and pathological diagnosis was good (Kappa=0.877, P<0.001). Conclusions:3D/4D translabial ultrasound has a high value in the diagnosis of female urethral diverticulum, and it is worthy of clinical application.

Objective: To explore the clinical features of patients with synchronous lymphoma and carcinoma. Methods: The clinical data of 17 patients with Synchronous lymphoma and carcinoma from February 2012 to October 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. Results: Among 17 patients of lymphoma, 1 case HL, 2 cases B-NHL, 6 cases MZBL, 3 cases DLBCL, 1 case mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) , 3 cases NK/T- cell lymphoma, 1 case anaplastic large cell lymphoma(ALCL). In terms of 17 patients with carcinoma, 3 cases esophageal carcinoma, 3 cases gastric carcinoma, 2 cases colorectal carcinoma, 7 cases thyroid carcinoma, 1 case hepatocellular carcinoma and lung cancer. Up to 15 patients received operation, and some of them combined with chemotherapy, radiotherapy and autologous transplant. Follow-up analysis showed that 3 cases was undergoing treatment, 2 cases lost follow-up, 4 cases died, 3 cases achieved CR, 3 cases remained to be at SD, and 2 cases assessed for progression or recurrence. Conclusion The relationship between lymphoma and carcinoma was under discussion, patients with synchronous lymphoma and carcinoma were not unusual. We herein should raise awareness to avoid misdiagnosis.

Objective To explore the risk factors of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia ( MPP ) combined with mucous plug in children. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out on the clinical data of one hundred and forty-nine patients with MMP who received fiber bronchoscope from September 2013 to September 2016. Based on the airway mucosal lesions seen through the bronchoscope,patients were divided into two groups:the mucous plug group( 82 cases) and the control group( 67 cases) . The risk factors of mucous plug in MMP children were analyzed through single factor and multifactor analysis. Area under curve ( AUC ) was calculated according to receiver operator characteristic ( ROC ) curve to evaluate the diagnostic value of independent risk factor. Results The result of univariate analysis showed that,in the mucous plug group,the age was (5.88±2.01)ages,pleural effusion cases was 64.63％,febrile course was (10.65±2.87)d,CRP was (50. 99±20. 23) mg/L,serum LDH was (429. 94±160. 28)U/L,significantly higher than those in the control group ( age(5. 12±2. 15)ages,pleural effusion cases was 28. 36％,febrile course was(8. 97±3. 01)d,CRP was (20. 89±9. 98) mg/L and serum LDH was(300. 12±125. 14)U/L),the differences were statistically significant (P<0. 05) . Multiple factors analysis showed that age of onset, febrile course, CRP, serum LDH were the independent risk factors, the differences were statistically significant ( 95％CI= 2. 054 ～ 18. 305, 1. 539 ～21. 778,1. 159 ～ 24. 565,1. 883 ～ 9. 469,P<0. 05) . . ROC curve analysis indicated that the AUC of CRP and LDH was 0. 897,0. 829,respectively. Conclusion Old age,long febrile course,and high level of CRP and LDH are the independent risk factors for the mucous plug formation in MPP children. The diagnostic value of CRP is higher than that of LDH. Monitoring these factors can help the doctor determine whether the patient need do bronchoscope without delay and prevent the formation of mucous plug and improve the prognosis.

Objective: To summarize the clinical characteristics, virological and histopathological features, clinical outcome of Epstein-Barr virus-positive lymphoproliferative disease (EBV⁺LPD) in children. Methods: The clinical and follow-up data of 13 children histopathologically diagnosed as EBV⁺LPD in the Department of Infectious Disease of Beijing Children's Hospital between January 2011 and December 2016 were summarized. Results: Of the 13 patients, 5 were males and 8 females. The median age of disease onset was 6.0 years (range 1.3 to 15.0 years). The median duration between disease onset and diagnosis was 3 months (range 1 to 24 months). All the 13 patients had fever, 9 cases had hepatosplenomegaly and lymphoadenopathy, 4 cases had only lymphoadenopathy, 7 cases had reduced peripheral blood cells, 7 cases had lung involvement, 3 cases had central nervous system involvement, 3 cases had cardiac involvement, 3 cases had intestinal involvement, 2 cases had skin involvement and 1 case had abdominal mass. All the 13 patients underwent whole blood EBV-DNA PCR examination and the copies ranged from 1×10⁸/L to 1×10¹¹/L. Pathology of lymph node confirmed 6 cases, skin pathology confirmed 2 cases, lung pathology, ileum mucosa pathology, liver pathology, abdominal mass pathology and bone marrow pathology confirmed 1 case each. Among 13 patients, 9 cases presented with EBV-positive T cell lymphoproliferative disease(EBV⁺ T-LPD), 2 cases with hydroa vacciniforme (HV) and 2 cases with EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (EBV⁺ DLBCL) . All the patients were followed up for 2 days to 65 months after discharge. Among 9 cases of EBV⁺T-LPD, 1 case died in a short time, 1 case died after evolved to T-cell lymphoma, 2 cases recovered after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, 1 case recovered after the chemotherapy of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH) 2004 protocol and 4 cases were stable now. Of 2 cases of HV patients, 1 case died after evolved to HV like lymphoma and the other still have symptoms. Among 2 cases of EBV⁺ DLBCL, 1 case died shortly after discharge and the other was still stable after chemotherapy. Conclusions Chronic recurrent fever, lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly are the most common clinical manifestations in children with EBV⁺LPD. Involvement of lung, central nervous system, intestinal tract, skin and other organs are also involved frequently. For children with chronic fever of unknown cause and accompanied by lymphadenopathy and (or) hepatosplenomegaly, EBV ⁺ LPD should be considered highly when the whole blood EBV-DNA load continues to increase significantly, early biopsy of the proliferative lesion should be performed to make a definite diagnosis. The prognosis of EBV ⁺ LPD is poor, and some evolve to lymphoma, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an effective way to treat this disease.
