ObjectiveThe theory of homotherapy for heteropathy is one of the classical rules in traditional Chinese medicine. Taking this theory as a breakthrough point, this study employed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to elucidate the mechanism underlying the therapeutic effects of Zhuyuwan on both intrahepatic cholestasis (IC) and ulcerative colitis (UC) from the viewpoint of serum metabolic homeostasis. MethodsThe rat models of α-naphthylisothiocyanate (ANIT)-induced cholestasis and 2,4,6-trinitro-benzenesulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced UC were treated with low (0.6 g·kg-1) and high (1.2 g·kg-1) doses of Zhuyuwan by gavage. In the experiment regarding IC, 24 Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly assigned into four groups: normal, ANIT model, low-dose Zhuyuwan, and high-dose Zhuyuwan. In the experiment regarding UC, 24 SD rats were randomly allocated into four groups: normal, TNBS model, low-dose Zhuyuwan, and high-dose Zhuyuwan. Firstly, the two disease models and the intervention effects of Zhuyuwan on the two diseases were evaluated based on serum levels of biochemical indicators [alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (γ-GT), and total bile acid (TBA)], colon damage score, colon weight index, disease activity index, and histopathological changes in rats. Secondly, the rat serum samples were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to screen the common core pathways of the two disease models, and the expression of core genes in the pathways was determined by Real-time PCR, on the basis of which the biological mechanism of the treatment of the two disease models by Zhuyuwan was ultimately elucidated. ResultsThe results of the experiment regarding IC showed that the ANIT model group had higher ALT, AST, γ-GT, and TBA levels than the normal group (P<0.01). Compared with the ANIT model group, the low-dose Zhuyuwan group showed declined ALT and TBA levels (P<0.01) and the high-dose Zhuyuwan group showed lowered ALT, TBA, AST, and γ-GT levels (P<0.01). The results of the experiment regarding UC showed that compared with the normal group, the TNBS model group presented increases in the colonic damage score, colon weight index, and disease activity index (P<0.01). Compared with the TNBS model group, the low-dose Zhuyuwan group showcased declines in colon weight index (P<0.01) and disease activity index (P<0.05), and the high-dose Zhuyuwan group showed reductions in the colon damage score, colon weight index, and disease activity index (P<0.01). GC-MS metabolomics analysis combined with qRT-PCR demonstrated that Zhuyuwan had a similar inverse regulatory effect on arginine metabolism disruption in the above two disease models. ConclusionZhuyuwan exhibited definite therapeutic effects on both IC and UC, and the regulation of arginine biosynthesis pathway is the core mechanism for the treatment of both diseases by Zhuyuwan.

Objective:To investigate the effect of modified percutaneous closure in the treatment of ventricular septal rupture.Methods:This study is a retrospective cohort study. Forty-four patients with ventricular septal rupture who underwent percutaneous closure at the Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital from December 2017 to October 2023 were included. According to the closure method, patients were divided into the modified group (11 cases) and the traditional group (33 cases). Surgical success was defined as successful placement of the occluder. The operation time, X-ray intake, sheath bending rate, incidence of ventricular fibrillation and pericardial tamponade, and postoperative residual shunt were compared between the two groups.Results:The age of the patients was (75.0±5.7) years, with 20 (45%) males. There were 3 cases of operation failure in the traditional group, while all patients in the modified group were successfully occluded. The procedure time in the modified group was shorter than that in the traditional group (40 (35, 45) min vs. 60 (50, 65)min, P<0.001); X-ray dose intake was lower ((442.43±73.26)mGy vs. (784.45±247.78)mGy, P<0.001). There was no occurrence of sheath bending in the modified group, while the incidence of sheath bending in the traditional surgery group was 46% (15/33), and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.017). Intraoperative ventricular fibrillation and pericardial tamponade occurred in 7 cases (21%) and 2 cases (6%) in the traditional group respectively, while none occurred in the modified group, but the differences between the groups were not statistically significant (both P>0.05). There was no significant difference in residual shunt between the two groups (3.6 (2.5, 4.3) mm vs. 4.0 (3.5, 4.5) mm, P=0.506). Conclusion:The procedure of modified ventricular septal rupture closure is more simplified, with a lower incidence ofventricular fibrillation and pericardial tamponade.

Objective:To study the changing characteristics and impact factors of helical tomotherapy (HT)for longitudinal dose fall-off outside the target, in order to guide the plan junction or pretreatment target and implementation efficiency in clinical.Methods:Eight patients with head and neck tumors admitted to the Department of Oncology Radiotherapy of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in December 2019 were retrospectively selected as the research objects. The planning target area and dose drop structure were outlined in the head and neck images with a thickness of 1 mm obtained by Siemens SOMATOM Definition AS positioning computerized tomography (CT). Different field widths (FW, 5.0 cm/2.5 cm/1.0 cm) and pitches (0.430/0.287/0.215) were assembled for planning with the same modulation factor (1.8), finest does calculation grid (0.195 cm ×0.195 cm) and other planning parameters were consistent. The plans were designed by different parameters, and the result was analyzed by univariate analysis.Results:The that different pitch curves coincided under the same field width by comparative analyzing, so pitchs had no effect on dose drop. The different field width curves were independent of each other, indicating that the field width had an effect on dose drop in the head and foot direction. The relationship between the longitudinal dose drop speed outside the target and the change of the field width was inversely correlated: the larger field widths meant the slower dose fall-off and the larger penumbra, while the smaller field widths meant the faster fall-off and the smaller penumbra. When the dose fall-off to 50% of the prescribed dose, the distance from the target was approximately equal to half the field widths, and the pitchs had not affect the rate of dose-drop, while the dose at different distances from the target boundary could be calculated by the fitting formulas. The field widths and pitchs had little effect on the CI and HI index of the target, relatively, the target area was best when the field width was 2.5 cm. The total beam-on time gradually decreased with the increase of the field widths and pitches.Conclusions:When segment target therapy needs to consider planning junction, execution efficiency, and controlling longitudinal dose fall-off and considered the execution, the optimal planned parameters such as field widths and pitches could be selected or the target at the junction regions could be adducted according to the longitudinal dose drop formula, so as to achieve the ideal dose distribution.

【Objective】 To investigate the profile of Rh blood group antigen in pregnant women and hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) in Qingdao area. 【Methods】 10 597 pregnant women admitted in our hospital during October 2016 to February 2020 were selected and the ABO, Rh blood group system antigen (D, C, c, E, e) and the irregular antibody were detected, and positive antibody was further identified. The irregular antibody of Rh blood group in pregnant women was statistically analyzed according to the history of blood transfusion and pregnancy. Twelve HDN cases were studied, and the results of ABO, Rh blood group antigen and irregular antibody, antibody property identification, HDN test and blood routine test were retrospectively analyzed. 【Results】 Among 10 513 cases of Rh-positive pregnant women, the common phenotype was CCee>CcEe>Ccee>ccEE>ccEe; among 84 cases of Rh-negative pregnant wome, the common phenotype was ccee>Ccee> CCee> ccEE>ccEe. The positive rate of irregular antibody was 1.06% (112/10597) in 10 597 pregnant women, of which the Rh antibody was the highest, rated at 56.25% (63/112). For 64 pregnant women with positive antibodies, antibodies against Rh system were different from those against other systems when stratified by the history of blood transfusion (P<0.05) and pregnancy (P<0.05). Twelve neonates were diagnosed with Rh-HDN, with IgG anti-E in 6 cases, IgG anti-D 3, IgG anti-cE 1, IgG anti-C 1and IgG anti-c 1. Among them, 3 were seriously ill and treated with blood exchange. 【Conclusion】 As two-child policy was implemented, the incidence of Rh HDN had increased. ABO, RhD, C, c, E and e matched transfusion should be administered for women at childbearing age. Meanwhile, clinical termination of delivery was recommended for pregnant women, who probably develop Rh-HDN and are with critical situation. Rh phenotype matched fresh blood should be prepared, which has great clinical significance for rescuing newborns.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiology of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and gene subtypes among women in Qingdao form 2015 to 2019, so as to provide scientific support for the prevention and treatment of HPV related cervical cancer in Qingdao.Methods:A total of 26396 female cervical exfoliated cell specimens were collected at the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2015 to October 2019, then 17 high-risk HPV genotypes and 6 low-risk HPV genotypes were detected by PCR and reverse dot blot in vitro, and prevalence and year, genotype and age distribution were analyzed.Results:The total prevalence of HPV was 18.17%. The prevalence of single infection, double infection and multiple infection were 13.41%, 3.40% and 1.35% respectively. The infection rate of 7 high-risk subtypes (HPV52, 16, 58, 53, 56, 51, 68) and 3 low-risk subtypes (HPV81, 42, 43) exceeded 1%. The HPV prevalence of different age groups was significantly different and the prevalence showed a bimodal pattern among different age groups. There were two peaks in the ≤25 years group and 46-50 years group, which were 23.61% and 19.63% respectively. There was no significant difference in genotype distribution among different age groups.Conclusions:The cervical HPV infection rate of women in Qingdao is at a medium level, and single infection is the main pattern in different genotypes and age groups. In addition to the vaccine coverage subtypes, the prevalence of other subtypes such as HPV 53, 56, 51 and 68 in this region is also high. Therefore, regular HPV screening is still needed after vaccination to find out HPV genotypes which are not covered by the vaccine. It is suggested that the government optimize the HPV vaccine coverage genotypes to prevent the occurrence of HPV infection associated with cervical cancer.

Objective:To summarize the relationship between the clinicopathological features and prognosis of immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) after renal transplantation.Methods:A total of 34 patients with IgAN after renal transplantation confirmed by renal biopsy were enrolled. And another 34 patients with primary IgAN confirmed by initial renal biopsy were adopted as controls. Clinical and pathological features of two groups were compared to explore the relationship between clinicopathological features and prognosis of allograft IgAN.Results:As compared with primary IgAN group, renal function in allograft IgAN group included serum creatinine [(158.5±75.9) vs (84.8±26.8) umol/L], urea nitrogen [(9.7±6.1) vs (5.2±1.4) mmol/L], uric acid [(406.7±87.8) vs (359.0±92.6) umol/L], estimated glomerular filtration rate {(57.4±25.4) vs (91.2±28.6) [ml/(min·1.73m 2)]}. All were statistically significantly higher ( P<0.05) while other parameters showed no differences. Pathologically, the proportion of T1 type (50.0% vs 17.6%) of renal tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis was significantly higher in allograft IgAN group than control group ( P<0.05). Furthermore, univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed between various pathological parameters and prognosis in allograft IgAN patients. It indicated that the degree of mesangial hyperplasia of patients with transplanted IgAN had a significantly negative impact on the prognosis. Conclusions:The clinicopathological features of patients with allograft IgAN show no difference from those of patients with primary IgAN. And among patients with allograft IgAN, those with severe mesangial hyperplasia often have a worse prognosis.
