Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of Qinggan Huashi Huoxue Decoction combined with conventional Western medicine in the treatment of alcoholic cirrhosis with spleen deficiency and phlegm stasis syndrome.Methods:Randomized controlled trial. A total of 110 patients from Tangshan Fengrun District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from March 2020 to March 2022 were selected as observation objects and divided into 2 groups with 55 patients in each group by computer random drawing method. The control group was treated with conventional Western medicine, while the observation group was treated with Qinggan Huashi Huoxue Decoction on the basis of the control group treatment. Both groups were treated for 3 months. The traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score was performed before and after treatment, and the levels of proline peptidase (PLD), type Ⅳ collagen (Ⅳ-C) and type Ⅰ procollagen aminopeptidase (PINP) were detected by phthalaldehyde contrast colorimetry, and the levels of pentamylin 3 (PTX3), protein kinase B (Akt) and B cell activating factor receptor (BAFF-R) were determined by ELISA. Adverse events were recorded and clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:The total effective rate in the observation group was 92.73% (51/55), while that in the control group was 76.36% (42/55), the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=5.64, P=0.018). After treatment, the score and total score of costal pain and fullness, swelling and firmness, anorexia, white and greasy tongue coating in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t values were 11.02, 7.36, 7.47, 6.38, 9.37, respectively, P<0.01). After treatment, the levels of serum PLD[(143.28±16.38)U/L vs. (160.69±18.35)U/L, t=5.25], Ⅳ-C[(71.93±8.33)μg/L vs. (83.12±9.91)μg/L, t=6.41], and PINP[(32.36±5.32)ng/L vs. (39.02±5.61)ng/L, t=6.39] in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01); The levels of PTX3[(36.82±4.96)ng/L vs. (42.14±5.83)ng/L, t=5.15], Akt[(69.22±7.94)ng/L vs. (77.24±8.63)ng/L, t=5.07], and BAFF-R[(15.29±3.64)ng/L vs. (19.92±4.15)ng/L, t=6.22] in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). During the treatment period, the incidence of adverse reactions was 12.73% (7/55) in the observation group and 9.09% (5/55) in the control group, with no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=0.37, P=0.541). Conclusion:Qinggan Huashi Huoxue Decoction combined with conventional Western medicine therapy can improve the Traditional Chinese Medicine syndrome and the degree of liver fibrosis damage in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis with spleen deficiency and phlegm stasis syndrome, inhibit the expression of serum inflammatory factors, and improve clinical efficacy.

Background Hand-arm vibration disease is harmful to human body, but there are no effective diagnosis and treatment so far, and current occupational exposure limits underestimate the health damage caused by high-frequency vibration exposure. Objective To evaluate and compare the damage to workers' peripheral circulation and peripheral nerve caused by different frequencies of vibration operation. Methods Drilling workers (n=187) from a mining company in Shandong Province and golf club head grinding workers (n=228) from a sports equipment factory in Guangdong Province were selected as study subjects. Hand symptoms were investigated. SV106 vibration meter was used to measure the target operation-associated vibration frequency spectrum. The 8 h energy-equivalent frequency weighted acceleration, cumulative vibration exposure level (CVEL), and the working age related to causing white finger in 10% of an exposed group were calculated. Result The study subjects were all male. More grinding workers reported hand symptoms than the drilling workers, e.g. peripheral circulation injury (52.6% vs 19.3%), peripheral nerve injury (71.5% vs 23.0%), hand stiffness (64.0% vs 7.0%), and deformed fingers (69.7% vs 4.3%) (all P<0.001). The main vibration frequencies of grinding operation (500-800 Hz) were much higher than those of drilling operation (125~160 Hz). CVEL and working age of vibration exposure showed a linear rising relationship with the cumulative prevalence rate of peripheral circulation and peripheral never injury, the fitting lines all showed good fitting effects (R2=0.812-0.988), and the slope of the fitting line of the grinding workers was larger than that of the drilling workers. The working age of vibration exposure associated with 10% cumulative prevalence of white finger was shorter in the grinding workers than in the drilling workers (6.81 years vs 10.27 years). According to the ISO prediction formula, the working age of vibration exposure was associated with 10% white finger prevalence shorter in the drilling workers than in the grinding workers (3.12 years vs 8.23 years). Conclusion Both the vibration exposure level and the prevalence of hand symptoms are high in two groups of workers with different vibration frequencies, and vibration exposure at a higher frequency tends to have severer damage to workers' hands.

Objective:To analyze the changes in T lymphocyte subsets, B lymphocytes and NK cells in children with active tuberculosis (TB) and their clinical significance.Methods:T lymphocyte subsets, B lymphocytes and NK cells in peripheral blood samples of 106 patients with acute TB (TB group) and 106 healthy children (healthy control group) were detected by flow cytometry and compared between different groups.Results:The percentages of CD3 + T, CD4 + T and NK cells as well as the CD4 +/CD8 + T cell ratio were significantly lower in the TB group than in the healthy control group ( Z=-3.783, P=0.000; Z=-5.401, P=0.000; Z=-3.434, P=0.001; Z=-2.014, P=0.044). The percentages of double negative T (DNT) and B cells in the TB group were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group ( Z=2.765, P=0.006; Z=6.880, P=0.000). No significant difference in the percentage of CD8 + T or double positive T (DPT) cells was observed between the two groups ( P>0.05). The expression of peripheral lymphocyte subsets varied in TB children of different age groups (0-<3, 3-<6, 6-<10 and 10-<16 years old). There were significant differences in CD3 + T, DNT and B cells among the four age groups ( H=10.081, P=0.018; H=14.583, P=0.002; H=8.498, P=0.037). The percentage of CD4 + T cells was significantly lower in children with extrapulmonary TB than in those with pulmonary TB ( Z=-3.068, P=0.002). No statistically significant difference in other lymphocyte subsets was found between children with extrapulmonary and pulmonary TB ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Tuberculosis could lead to immune dysfunction in children. Dynamic monitoring of the changes in peripheral lymphocyte subsets in children with TB could be conducive to better assessment of immune status and providing personalized treatment.

Objective:To explore the effect of goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) on the gastrointestinal function of patients after laparoscopic radical resection of cervical cancer.Methods:A total of 60 patients who were scheduled for laparoscopic radical resection of cervical cancer in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital from October 2016 to September 2018 were selected. They were randomly divided into observation group and control group by random number table method, with 30 cases in each group. Patients in the observation group received GDFT, they were connected to the Flotrac/Vigile monitoring system, and the fluid supplementation was guided according to the changes in mean arterial pressure (MAP), stroke volume variability (SVV) and cardiac index, the goal was to maintain MAP≥60 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa), SVV≤13%, and cardiac index 2.5-4.0 L·min -1·m -2. The conventional fluid therapy was applied in the control group, and the liquid's input speed was adjusted according to the changes of MAP and central venous pressure (CVP) which were respectively maintained at 60-110 mmHg and 8-12 cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O = 0.098 kPa). The crystal/colloid input, bleeding volume and urine output were recorded. The first bowel sounds recovery time, exhaust time, postoperative hospitalization time, and the incidence of nausea and vomiting after surgery were recorded. Arterial blood and central venous blood were drawn before anesthesia induction and 12, 24 and 36 hours after operation to determine the concentrations of arterial blood lactate and central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2) as well as intestinal type fatty acid binding protein (IFABP). Results:Compared with the control group, the urine output was increased ( t = -7.738, P < 0.01), the crystal input was reduced ( t = -13.439, P < 0.01), the colloid input was increased ( t = -8.360, P < 0.01), the recovery time of first bowel sounds after surgery was shortened ( t = 6.694, P < 0.01), the exhaust time was shortened ( t = -10.326, P < 0.01), and the time of postoperative hospitalization was shortened ( t = -7.377, P < 0.01). The incidence of nausea and vomiting in the observation group were 10.0% (3/30) and 6.7% (2/30), which were lower than 33.3% (10/30) and 26.7% (8/30) in the control group ( χ2 = 4.812, P = 0.028; χ2 = 4.320, P = 0.038). Compared with the control group, the concentration of IFABP in the observation group was reduced at 12 h ( t = 2.983, P = 0.004), 24 h ( t = 6.452, P < 0.01), and 36 h ( t = -3.880, P < 0.01) after surgery; the concentration of lactate in the observation group was reduced at 12 h ( t = -7.377, P < 0.01), 24 h ( t = -6.036, P < 0.01), and 36 h ( t = -8.933, P < 0.01) after surgery; the value of ScvO 2 in the observation group was increased at 12 h ( t = 2.710, P = 0.009) and 24 h ( t = 2.387, P = 0.020) after surgery. Conclusion:GDFT can maintain the balance between oxygen delivery and oxygen consumption in the gastrointestinal mucosa cells, which can promote the recovery of gastrointestinal function of patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of cervical cancer.

Objective:To determine the median effective dose (ED 50) of 0.5% ropivacaine when combined with dexmedetomidine based on femoral nerve cross-sectional area for ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block. Methods:American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠor Ⅱ patients of both sexes, aged 18-64 yr, with body mass index of 20-30 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective open reduction and internal fixation for patella fracture or removal of patella fracture by internal fixation, were randomly divided into dexmedetomidine and ropivacaine group (group DR) and ropivacaine group (group R). In group DR, 0.5% ropivacaine and 0.5 μg/kg dexmedetomidine were injected.In group R, 0.5% ropivacaine was injected.Ultrasonic localization of femoral nerve was performed for measurement of the femoral nerve cross-sectional area, and 0.5% ropivacaine was injected based on the area.ED 50 was determined by Dixon′ s up-and-down sequential method.The initial dose was 0.22 ml/mm 2, and the difference between the two successive doses was 0.02 ml/mm 2.The effective block was defined as complete loss of pain sensation in the areas of anterior skin of knee joint, skin on the inner side of the calf and dorsal medial skin of the foot and the degree of motor block was in stages 1-3 assessed using Brunnstrom motor function within 30 min after nerve block.Nerve block was considered ineffective if pain occurred in any nerve distribution area mentioned above.The study was terminated if 7 effective and ineffective alternating waves occurred.ED 50 and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using Probit analysis. Results:In group R, 27 patients were enrolled in the study, and ED 50 (95%CI) of 0.5% ropivacaine for ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block was 0.106 (0.069-0.125) ml/mm 2.In group DR, 23 patients were enrolled in the study, and ED 50 (95% CI) of 0.5% ropivacaine for ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block was 0.038 (0.011-0.059) ml/mm 2.Compared with group R, ED 50 of 0.5% ropivacaine for femoral nerve block was significantly decreased in group R. Conclusion:When combined with dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg, ED 50 of 0.5% ropivacaine based on femoral nerve cross-sectional area for ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block is 0.038 ml/mm 2.

Objective:To evaluate of the general practice residency training bases in Hebei Province.Methods:Based on the 2020 Standardized Residency Training Base Evaluation Index-General Practitioners of Chinese Medical Doctor Association,24 training bases in Hebei Province were assessed;and the satisfaction questionnaire survey and in-depth interview were conducted among 124 general practice trainees who were randomly selected in November 2020. Results:All 24 bases set the general practice department in the hospitals as required. However, the annual outpatient visits in department of general practice were less than 20000 in 45.83% (11/24) bases, only 41.67% (10/24) bases met the teaching requirements of general practice, and 33.33% (8/24) bases fulfilled the provincial target for general practice residency training enrollment; only 3 bases (13.64%) had the pass rate≥85% in medical licensing examination in the previous year. For the training satisfaction, 66.94% (83/124) trainees were satisfied with residency training, and 33.06% (41/124) were moderately satisfied. There was significantly difference in the satisfaction degrees among trainees with different expectations of career prospects (χ 2=24.436, P<0.05). Conclusions:Basically, the management system of general practice residency training bases has been completed and the construction of teaching teams has been standardized in Hebei Province. But the job attraction of general practitioner is inadequate, the training bases need to be strengthened, and the training quality needs to be improved.

Objective:To study the effect of various concentrations of Enterococcus faecalis (Ef) supernatants on human periodontal ligament cell (hPDLC) and the inflammatory response of hPDLC under static pressure. Methods:The method of methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) was used to detect the effect of various concentrations of Ef supernatants on the proliferation of hPDLCs and the flow cytometry was used to detect the expression of Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR-2) on the surface of hPDLC after 24-hour-stimulation of Ef supernatant. Furthermore, the hPDLCs were divided into non inducing group without Ef supernatant and inducing group with 5% Ef supernatant, and hPDLCs in each group were loaded with 0, 49 and 196 Pa static pressures respectively. The expressions of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) mRNA and protein were detected by reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) after 24 hours.Results:MTT results showed that the supernatant of Ef with concentratio n≥5% could significantly inhibit the proliferation activity of hPDLCs at 48 hours of cell culture ( P<0.05). Flow cytometry showed that the positive cell rates of TLR-2 increased with increasing volume fractions of the Ef supernatants. The values were (2.12±0.07)%, (2.41±0.32)%, (2.65±0.27)%, (4.76±0.46)%, (9.91±0.92)% and (12.01±1.35)%, respectively. The differences were statistically significant when the concentrations≥5% ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the expressions of IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA between the non inducing group and the control group under the pressure of 49 Pa ( P>0.05). However, there were significant differences in the expressions of IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA between the non inducing group and the control group under the pressure of 196 Pa ( P<0.05), while the expressions of IL-1β and TNF-α in the inducing group were significantly lower than that in the control group under the pressures of 49 and 196 Pa ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the mRNA expression was significantly increased ( P<0.05). The result of ELISA was consistent with that of PCR. Conclusions:High concentration of Ef supernatant could inhibit the proliferation of hPDLC. Ef supernatant might promote the expression of TLR-2 on the surface of hPDLC. Excessive mechanical pressure induced the inflammatory response of hPDLC. The presence of inflammatory mediators could lead to the intolerance of hPDLC to pressures and small pressure could aggravate the inflammatory response.
