Objective:To evaluate the feasibility of low radiation dose and low contrast dosage in coronary CT angiography (CCTA) of class I obese patients.Methods:This prospective study enrolled 57 patients (male/female, 50/7, age, 25-77 years) with body mass index (BMI) of 30-38 kg/m 2 and body weight of 85-119 kg scheduled for CCTA from August 2022 to March 2023 in our hospital. The patients were divided into two groups: control group (group A, n = 20) and low-dose group (group B, n = 37). Group A employed a standard-dose protocol: tube voltage 120 kVp and IDR 2.2 g I/s, while group B were scanned using the low-dose protocol: tube voltage 100 kVp and IDR 1.5 g I/s. Images in Group A and Group B were reconstructed with hybrid iterative reconstruction (HIR) at strength 4 and 8, respectively. Other scanning and reconstruction parameters were the same in two groups. Methods:The image quality was assessed by measuring the CT values and noise in the aortic root, left anterior descending artery and right coronary artery, and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) were calculated. Subjective image quality was evaluated for vessels according to the 18-segment classification system using a 4-point scale (1. poor, 4. excellent). The effective dose E and contrast dosage were compared. Statistical analysis was performed using independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test or χ 2 test. Results:The BMI of groups A and B were 31.89 (30.77, 33.81) and 31.22 (30.46, 32.83) kg/m 2, respectively ( P>0.05). No statistically significant differences in CT values, noise, SNR, CNR were noticed between the two groups (all P>0.05). The mean subjective score of all coronary artery segments in the two groups were not less than 3, meeting the requirement of clinical diagnosis. There was no statistically significant difference in the overall subjective image quality between the two groups ( P>0.05). The radiation dose E in groups A and B were 7.58 and 4.49 mSv, respectively ( Z=-5.46, P<0.05). The contrast dosage in groups A and B were 66 and 45 ml, respectively. The radiation dose E and contrast dosage in group B were 41% and 32% lower than that in group A, respectively. Conclusions:For class I obese patients, it was feasible to use a low tube voltage (100 kVp) and low IDR (1.5 gI/s) protocol in CCTA. Radiation dose and contrast dosage can be reduced reasonably without compromising the CCTA image quality.

Objective:To assess the value of the ROX index in evaluating the efficacy of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNC) in patients with coronavirus infected disease (COVID-19).Methods:This is a retrospective study. The included patients were diagnosed as COVID-19 in the intensive care unit (ICU) of the Cancer Center of Union Hospital affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from February 15, 2020 to March 15, 2020. All the patients were treated by HFNC. According to whether the patient subsequently received non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or invasive positive pressure ventilation, patients were divided into the HFNC success group and the HFNC failure group. Parameters in the two groups such as basic characteristics, lactic acid, number of chest radiographs, APACHE II, lymphocyte count, baseline respiratory rate, baseline percutaneous oxygen saturation, baseline PaO 2/FiO 2, baseline ROX index, and ROX index after 2, 6 and 12 h HFNC treatment were analyzed with t test, Chi-square test or rank sum test. Results:A total of 57 cases were included in this study. There were no significant differences in sex, age, comorbidities, lactic acid, quadrants of chest radiograph lung infection, APACHE II, lymphocyte count, and baseline respiratory frequency, transcutaneous oxygen saturation, oxygenation index, and ROX index between the HFNC success group and the HFNC faliure group ( P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that ROX index after 2 h HFNC treatment ( OR=0.069), ROX index after 6 h HFNC treatment ( OR=0.194) and ROX index after 12 h HFNC treatment ( OR=0.036) were all protective factors for the therapeutic effect of HFNC treatment in COVID-19 patients. ROC curve showed that there were significant differences in ROX index after 2 h HFNC treatment, ROX index after 6 h HFNC treatment, and ROX index after 12 h HFNC treatment ( P<0.05). In the evaluation index, the area under the ROC curve of the ROX index after 2 h HFNC treatment was 0.838, the sensitivity was 64.5%, and the specificity was 100%. After 6 h HFNC treatment, the area under the ROX index ROC curve was 0.762, the sensitivity was 64.5%, and the specificity was 92.3%. After 12 h HFNC treatment, the ROX index ROC curve area was 0.866, the sensitivity was 67.7%, and the specificity was 100%. Conclusions:The ROX index can be used to evaluate the efficacy of HFNC in COVID-19 patients in a timely, simple and real-time manner.

Objective To explore the demands for perinatal health education among primigravidas and the influencing factors of health education so as to provide a basis for curriculum design based on the internet + health education platform in the school for pregnant women.Methods From March to May 2018, we selected 100 primigravidas registered for the first time in department of obstetrics at a ClassⅢ hospital in Xiamen as subjects by the method of general survey. All of the patients were investigated with the self-designed perinatal health education demands questionnaires.Results There was no statistical difference in the demands of pregnant women for training mode and training content of health education among primigravidas with different ages, occupations, educational backgrounds and incomes (P>0.05). The health education demand for 100 primigravidas in the first trimester of pregnancy was higher: pregnancy/birth/postpartum diet and nutrition accounted for 88.0％, baby growth and development accounted for 75.0％, and fetal growth and development accounted for 71.0％. The factors influencing the maternal health education series of pregnant women participating in pregnant women's schools or medical institutions mainly include 66.0％ of busy/no time, 9.0％ of distance/inconvenient transportation, 3.0％ of economic difficulties, and no feeling of self-feeling for 8.0％. Conclusions Primigravidas are with the high demands for perinatal health education. The mode of health education favours network interactions, WeChat consult group for doctors and patients. Puerpera pay more attention to perinatal diet and nutrition, growth and development of babies/fetuses and neonatal nursing care in pregnancy. The main influencing factors attending health education in the school for pregnant women and the medical institution are busy, timeless and great distance/inconvenient transportation. We should have the aid of network platform in future work for perinatal health education to individually carry out a variety of ways of health education by "internet +" so as to make primigravidas select perinatal health education best for them at the most convenient time and place.

Objective:To investigate how urothelial carcinoma-associated 1 (UCA1) and miR-18a modulates acquired tamoxifen resistance and the relevant mechanisms in estrogen receptor (ER) positive cancer cells.Methods: qRT-PCR was performed to detect UCA1 and miR-18a expression in breast cancer cells.Dual luciferase assay was performed to detect the binding between miR-18a and UCA1 3′UTR.Tamoxifen sensitive MCF-7 cells were transfected with UCA1 expression vector or miR-18a inhi-bitors.Tamoxifen resistant LCC9 and BT474 cells were transfected with UCA1 siRNA or miR-18a mi-mics.CCK-8 assay was performed to detect cell viability.Soft agar assay was performed to assess cell colony formation.Flow cytometric analysis was performed to check cell cycle distribution.Results: UCA1 was significantly upregulated in tamoxifen resistant LCC2,LCC9,and BT474 cells than in tamoxifen sensitive MCF-7 cells.UCA1 expression was significantly upregulated in MCF-7 cells after treatment with 0.1 μmol/L tamoxifen.UCA1 overexpression enhanced cell viability of MCF-7 cells after tamoxifen treatment,while UCA1 siRNA significantly suppressed viability of LCC9 and BT474 cells after tamoxifen treatment.In MCF-7 cells,compared with vector control+tamoxifen group,the average cell colony number and colony size of the UCA1+tamoxifen group was 19.0％ more and 29.0％ larger respectively,while the proportions of the cells in G1 phase and in S phase were 7.3％ lower and 6.7％ higher respectively.In BT474 cells,compared with siRNA control+tamoxifen group,the average cell colony number and colony size of the si-UCA1+tamoxifen group were 54.0％ less and 42.0％ smaller respectively,while the proportions of the cells in G1 phase and in S phase were 9.0％ higher and 6.2％ lower respectively.UCA1 directly interacted with miR-18a and reduced its expression in ER positive breast cancer cells.Knockdown of miR-18a increased viability of MCF-7 cells after tamoxifen treatment,while miR-18a overexpression significantly reduced viability of BT474 cells after tamoxifen treatment.In MCF-7 cells,compared with miRNA inhibitor control+tamoxifen group,the average cell colony number and colony size of the miR-18a inhibitor+tamoxifen group were 15.0％ more and 33.0％ larger respectively,while the proportions of the cells in G1 phase and in S phase were 8.8％ lower and 5.3％ higher respectively.In BT474 cells,compared with miRNA control+tamoxifen group,the average cell colony number and colony size of the miR-18a mimics+tamoxifen group were 47.0％ less and 25.0％ smaller respectively,while the proportions of the cells in G1 phase and in S phase were 13.3％ higher and 7.9％ lower respectively.Conclusion: UCA1 can increase tamoxifen resistance of ER positive breast cancer cells via competitively inhibiting of miR-18a.

Objective To investigate the effect of local application of triamcinolone acetonide in promoting wound healing and recurrence after granulomatous lobular mastitis (GLM) operation. Methods The clinical data of 55 GLM patients with the diameter > 5 cm were retrospectively analyzed, and all patients treated with incision drainage to breast abscess and removal of inflammatory lesions. Thirty - one patients were treated with routine dressing change after operation (control group), and 24 patients were treated with routine dressing change and triamcinolone acetonide injection after operation (experiment group). The wound dressing time, recovery rate and recurrence rate were compared between 2 groups, and hormone related adverse reaction of experiment group was observed. Results The wound dressing time in experiment group was significantly shorter than that in control group:(58 ± 19) d vs. (71 ±25) d, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). There were no statistical differences in the recovery rate and recurrence rate between experiment group and control group:91.7%(22/24) vs. 83.9%(26/31) and 9.1%(2/22) vs. 15.4% (4/26), P>0.05. The patients of experiment group did not have the hormone related adverse reaction. Conclusions The local application of triamcinolone acetonide after GLM operation can accelerate the wound healing, and it may also contribute to higher recovery rate and lower recurrence rate.
