Objective:To investigate the efficacy of phenolamine in the treatment of sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction and its effect on cardiac function, myocardial injury index, and hemodynamics in patients.Methods:The clinical data of 79 patients with sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction who received treatment in Huangshi Central Hospital, Edong Healthcare Group from February 2017 to February 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into a control group (without phenolamine treatment, n = 41) and an observation group (with phenolamine treatment, n = 38) according to whether they received phenolamine treatment or not. Clinical efficacy, cardiac function, myocardial injury index, and hemodynamic index pre- and post-treatment were compared between the two groups. Results:There was no significant difference in 28-day mortality rate between the two groups ( P > 0.05). Intensive care unit length of stay and mechanical ventilation duration in the observation group were (9.33 ± 3.52) days and 83.00 (28.50, 138.00) hours, which were significantly shorter than (12.17 ± 4.15) days and 111.00 (47.50, 169.00) hours in the control group ( t = 3.26, Z = -2.27, both P < 0.05). The response rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [81.58% (31/38) vs. 60.98% (25/41), χ2 = 4.05, P < 0.05]. After 7 days of treatment, the left ventricular ejection fraction in each group was significantly increased, and the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and left ventricular end-systolic diameter in each group were significantly decreased compared with before treatment (all P < 0.05). After 7 days of treatment, the left ventricular ejection fraction in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( t = 3.29, P < 0.05), and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and left ventricular end-systolic diameter were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t = 5.94, 11.21, both P < 0.05). N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide and cardiac troponin I levels in each group were significantly decreased with time (both P < 0.05). At 24 and 72 hours and 7 days after treatment, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide and cardiac troponin I levels in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (both P < 0.05). After 7 days of treatment, heart rate in each group decreased significantly compared with that before treatment (both P < 0.05), mean arterial pressure, cardiac index, and stroke output index in each group increased significantly compared with those before treatment (all P < 0.05). After 7 days of treatment, heart rate in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( t = 4.90, P < 0.05), and mean arterial pressure, cardiac index, and stroke output index in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( t = 4.37, 3.23, 6.01, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Phentolamine can improve hemodynamics, reduce myocardial injury and improve cardiac function in patients with sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction.

Objective:To explore the application effect of three-dimensional quality evaluation model in continuous nursing during puerperium in the first-time cesarean section.Methods:The convenient sampling method was used to select the first cesarean section women who gave birth in Xinxiang Central Hospital from January to December 2018 as the research objects. Parturients were divided into the control group and the observation group, with 93 cases in each group by random number table method. The control group was given conventional puerperal care, while the observation group was given continuous care based on the control group using three-dimensional quality evaluation model. The intervention time was 6 weeks. Maternal health knowledge, maternal and child health status and quality of life were assessed in both groups. In this study, 8 cases were lost to follow-up in the control group and 7 cases in the observation group, and 171 cases of parturients were finally included, including 85 cases in the control group and 86 cases in the observation group.Results:After intervention, maternal health knowledge scores, neonatal health knowledge scores and scores of all dimensions of the WHO Quality of Life Inventory were higher in the two groups than before intervention, and the observation group was higher than the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The cases of poor incision healing, poor uterine recovery, acute mastitis, puerperal infection and postpartum constipation in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The incidence of neonatal jaundice, eczema and diarrhea in the observation group were lower than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Based on the three-dimensional quality evaluation model as the theoretical basis, continuous nursing for first-time cesarean delivery mothers helps the mothers grasp the knowledge of puerperium health, has a positive effect on the health status of mothers and infants and improves the quality of life of the women, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To analyze blood transfusion and prognostic factors of extracorporeal membrane pulmonary oxygenation (ECMO) for the treatment of respiratory and circulatory failure.Methods:The clinical data of 80 patients with respiratory and circulatory failure who received treatment in Huangshi Central Hospital from March 2016 to July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to 28-day prognosis, these patients were divided into death group ( n = 44) and survival group ( n = 36). The general data, blood transfusion during the process of ECMO, vital signs, laboratory indicators, ventilation time, and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups. The factors affecting death during the process of ECMO were analyzed. Results:There were no significant differences in sex, age, body mass index, complications, the cause of respiratory and circulatory failure, and the mode of ECMO between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Preoperative Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score, creatinine, procalcitonin and lactic acid levels in the survival group were (22.36 ± 3.71) points, (79.17 ± 9.29) μmol/L, (2.77 ± 0.79) ng/L, (2.74 ± 0.36) mmol/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than (34.27 ± 4.98) points, (94.16 ± 10.23) μmol/L, (3.69 ± 1.10) ng/L, (5.18 ± 0.42) mmol/L, respectively in the death group ( t = -11.89, -6.79, -5.62, -27.53, all P < 0.001). There were no significant differences in preoperative respiratory frequency, diastolic pressure, systolic pressure, heart rate, oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2) and C-reactive protein between the two groups (all P > 0.05). The volume of blood transfused on the day of undergoing ECMO, the volume of blood transfused on the day of withdrawing ECMO, the volume of blood transfused during the whole process of ECMO, duration of ventilation, and the incidence of complications related to ECMO were(98.74 ± 16.28) mL, (37.23 ± 10.36) mL, (398.79 ± 67.81) mL, (210.39 ± 20.21) hours, 38.89% (14/36), respectively, which were significantly lower than (160.17 ± 23.14) mL, (48.26 ± 12.25) mL, (600.23 ± 70.12) mL, (320.14 ± 18.21) hours, 79.55% (35/44), respectively in the death group ( t = -13.43, -4.29, 4.94, 25.25, χ2 = 13.79, all P < 0.001). The length of hospital stay in the survival group was longer than that in the death group [(20.14 ± 5.36) days vs. (14.17 ± 4.23) days, t = 5.56, P < 0.001). Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score, procalcition level, the volume of blood transfused on the day of ECMO, duration of ventilation, and the volume of blood transfused during the whole process of ECMO are risk factors for death after ECMO, while length of hospital stay is a protective factor for ECMO. Conclusion:Preoperative evaluation of Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score, continuous blood transfusion during the whole process of ECMO, grasping the opportunity of ventilation and preventing against complications of ECMO are the keys to increasing the survival rate of patients with respiratory and circulatory failure.

Objective To investigate the effects of miR-335-5p on the proliferation and apoptosis of osteoblasts which were exposed to high glucose condition, and explore its possible molecular mechanisms. Methods MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts were divided into four groups:control group(5. 5 mmol/L glucose), high glucose group(HG group, 22. 0 mmol/L glucose), agomir-335-5p group(transfected with agomir-335-5p and exposed to 22. 0 mmol/L glucose) , and agomir negative control group( agomir NC group, transfected with agomir negative control and exposed to 22. 0 mmol/L glucose), cultured for 7 days. Cell proliferaton, cell apoptosis, expressions of miR-335-5p and dickkopfhomolog1(DKK1)mRNA,proteinlevelsofDKK1andcysteinylaspartate-specificproteinase-3(caspase-3) were detected using MTT, flow cytometry, quantitative realtime PCR and western blot, respectively. Results Compared with control group, the expression of miR-335-5p mRNA and cell proliferation in HG group were significantly decreased(P<0. 05), while cell apoptosis and the protein levels of DKK1 and caspase-3 were increased significantly(P<0. 05), the expression of DKK1 mRNA did not change (P>0. 05). The miR-335-5p mRNA expression and cell proliferation in agomir-335-5p group were higher than those in HG group and agomir NC group(P<0. 05). However, Cell apoptosis and the protein levels of DKK1 and caspase-3 in agomir-335-5p group were lower than those in HG group(P<0. 05). Conclusion High glucose inhibits the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of MC3T3-E1 osteoblast through decreasing the expression of miR-335-5p and subsequently increasing the DKK1 expression.

Objective To investigate the safety and acute toxicities of intraoperative electron radiotherapy for patients with abdominal tumors.Methods From May 2008 to August 2009, 52 patients with abdominal tumors were treated with intraoperative electron radiotherapy,including 14 patients with breast cancer,19 with pancreatic cancer,3 with cervical cancer, 4 with ovarian cancer, 6 with sarcoma, and 6 with other tumors.Fifteen patients were with recurrent tumors.The intraoperative radiotherapy was performed using Mobetron mobile electron accelerator, with total dose of 9 - 18 Gy.In all, 29, 4 and 19 patients received complete resection, palliative resection and surgical exploration, respectively.The complications during the operations and within 6 months after operations were graded according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0 (CTC 3.0).Results The median duration of surgery was 190 minutes.Intraoperative complications were observed in 5 patients, including 3 with hemorrhage, 1 with hypotension,and 1 with hypoxemia, all of which were treated conservatively.The median hospitalization time and time to take out stitches was 12 and 13 days, respectively.And the in-hospital mortality was 4% (2/52).Twentyfour patients suffered post-operative adverse events, including 3 postoperative infections.With a median follow-up time of 183 days, 20% of patients sufferred from grade 3 to 5 adverse events, with hematological toxicities being the most common complication, followed by bellyache.Grade 1 and 2 toxicities which were definitely associated with intraoperative radiotherapy was 28% and 4%, respectively.None of grade 3 to 5 complications were proved to be caused by intraoperative radiotherapy.Conclusions Intraoperative electron radiotherapy is well tolerable and could be widely used for patients with abdominal tumors, with a little longer time to take out stitches but without more morbidities and toxicities compared surgery alone.

Objective To study the relationship between the variation of the 20 exon of leptin receptor (LEPR) and lipid metabolism of the children with obesity. Methods Polymerase chain reaction-restricted fragments length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were used to analyze the variation of the 20 exon of the LEPR gene of the obesity group (120 obese children) and the control group (120 healthy children). Their serum triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), height, weight measured and the body mass index (BMI), fat percent (%fat) were calculated. Results 3 genotypes of the 20 exon of LEPR gene has been detected. Compared with the control group, the frequency of the gene variation at 3057 nucleotide G→A transversion is higher (P<0.05).The concentration of the serum TG, the level of BMI and %fat of the obese children with A/A genotype were higher than that with the G/G genotype (P<0.01),but the level of the serum HDL was lower (P<0.01).To the children with A/G genotype, only their TG level in serum are higher than that with the G/G genotype (P<0.05). Conclusion There is polymorphism at 20 exon LEPR gene in children with obesity, which may affect the lipid metabolism and the fat distribution. The obese children with A/A genotype should pay more attention to their diet to avoid some diseases followed obesity.
