Using syringaldehyde as raw material, the phosphine ylide intermediate was efficiently synthesized through acetylated hydroxyl protection, aldehyde group reduction, chlorination and reaction with triphenylphosphine. On this basis, moscatilin (MST) and its 12 analogs (MST-1-MST-12) were synthesized by wittig reaction, deacetylation and double bond reduction. All the structures were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and ESI-MS. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide-induced mouse macrophage RAW264.7 inflammation model was used to conduct preliminary anti-inflammatory activity tests in vitro for the target compounds. Results showed that all compounds could inhibit the production of inflammatory factor NO, and that MST-5 exhibited the strongest anti-inflammatory activity (IC50= 0.428 μmol/L).Further exploration is expected for the study of the anti-inflammatory mechanism of MST-5.

Objective:To investigate the radiation field and dose selection of patients with isolated chest wall recurrence (ICWR) after modified radical mastectomy, and analyze the prognostic factors related to subsequent chest wall recurrence.Methods:Clinical data of 201 patients with ICWR after mastectomy admitted to the Fifth Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital from 1998 to 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. None of the patients received postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy. After ICWR, 48 patients (73.6%) underwent surgery and 155 patients (77.1%) received radiotherapy. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the post-recurrence progression-free survival (PFS) rates and the difference was compared by log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was performed using Cox regression model. Competing risk model was adopted to estimate the subsequent local recurrence (sLR) rates after ICWR and the difference was compared with Gray test. Multivariate analysis was conducted using F&G analysis. Results:With a median follow up of 92.8 months after ICWR, the 5-year PFS rate was 23.2%, and the 5-year sLR rate was 35.7%. Multivariate analysis showed that patients with surgery plus radiotherapy and recurrence interval o F>12 months had a lower sLR rate. Patients with recurrence interval o F>48 months, local plus systemic treatment and surgery plus radiotherapy had a higher PFS rate. Among the 155 patients who received chest wall radiotherapy after ICWR, total chest wall irradiation plus local boost could improve the 5-year PFS rate compared with total chest wall irradiation alone (34.0% vs. 15.4%, P=0.004). Chest wall radiation dose (≤60 Gy vs.>60 Gy) exerted no significant effect upon the sLR and PFS rates (both P>0.05). In the 53 patients without surgery, the 5-year PFS rates were 9.1% and 20.5%( P=0.061) with tumor bed dose ≤60 Gy and>60 Gy, respectively. Conclusions:Local radiotherapy is recommended for patients with ICWR after modified radical mastectomy of breast cancer, including total chest wall radiation plus local boost. The radiation dose for recurrence should be increased to 60 Gy, and it should be above 60 Gy for those who have not undergone surgical resection. In addition, patients with ICWR still have a high risk of sLR, and more effective treatments need to be explored.

Objective:To analyze the prognosis of patients with isolated regional recurrence (RR) after mastectomy, and evaluate the efficacy of radiotherapy and identify the optimal radiation target volumes.Methods:Clinical data of 144 patients with first isolated RR after mastectomy between 2001 and 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients had not received post-mastectomy radiotherapy. The primary endpoints consisted of the subsequent locoregional recurrence (sLRR), distant metastasis (DM), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).Results:With a median follow-up of 82.5 months after RR, the 5-year sLRR, DM, PFS and OS rates for the entire group were 42.1%, 71.9%, 22.9% and 62.6%, respectively. Local plus systemic therapy was an independent favorable prognostic factor for sLRR ( P<0.001) and PFS ( P=0.013). The sLRR rate in the surgery plus radiotherapy group was the lowest ( P<0.001). Surgery plus radiotherapy significantly reduced the 5-year risk of recurrence within the initially involved nodal regions ( P<0.001). Patients with chest wall irradiation obtained the 5-year subsequent chest wall recurrence rate of 12.1% compared to 14.8%( P=0.873) for those without chest wall irradiation. The subsequent supraclavicular recurrence rate was lower in patients with prophylactic supraclavicular irradiation than that without prophylactic supraclavicular irradiation (9.9% vs. 23.8%, P=0.206). The incidence rates of initially uninvolved axillary and internal mammary nodal recurrence were below 10% regardless of prophylactic irradiation or not. Conclusions:Patients with RR alone have an optimistic 5-year OS in the contemporary era. Comprehensive locoregional treatment including surgery and radiotherapy combined with systemic therapy is recommended. The chest wall, axillary and internal mammary nodal prophylactic irradiation should not be routinely performed for all patients with RR. The value of supraclavicular prophylactic irradiation remains to be evaluated.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of accidental falls outside the hospital in elderly patients with accidental injury in the Emergency Department, so as to provide a basis for preventing accidental injuries.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 210 emergency elderly patients who visited the hospital due to accidental injuries from November 2017 to May 2020 in the Second Medical Center, People's Liberation Army General Hospital as the research object. Patients were investigated with the self-designed Out-of-hospital Accidental Injury Consultation Questionnaire. Single factor analysis and binomial Logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of falls in elderly patients. A total of 210 questionnaires were distributed in this survey, and 180 valid questionnaires were returned with the valid response rate of 85.71%.Results:A total of 147 falls occurred among 180 elderly patients in the Emergency Department, and the incidence of falls was 81.7%. Binomial Logistic regression analysis showed that old age, outdoor, chronic diseases and no use of walking aids were independent risk factors for falls ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The main types of accidental injuries in elderly patients are falls. Strengthening the nursing education of fall prevention measures, improving compliance with medications, choosing suitable walking aids or trying other new fall prevention technologies, and establishing a multi-party participation model can effectively prevent and reduce the occurrence of falls in elderly patients.

Objective:To analyze the prognostic factors of breast cancer patients with isolated chest wall recurrence (ICWR) after mastectomy, and investigate the optimal treatment.Methods:A total of 201 breast cancer patients with ICWR after mastectomy who were treated in Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and the Fifth Medical Center Chinese PLA General Hospital from October 1998 to April 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The median follow-up was 92.8 months and survival data were obtained.Results:Among 201 patients with ICWR, 103 patients developed subsequent locoregional recurrence (sLRR) and 5-year cumulative sLRR rate was 49.1%; 134 patients developed distant metastasis (DM) and 5-year DM rate was 64.4%; 103 patients died, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 17.4 months and the 5-year PFS rate was 23.2%; the median overall survival (OS) was 62.5 months and the 5-year OS rate was 52.1%. Multivariate analysis showed that the recurrence interval ( HR=2.17, 95% CI: 1.26-3.73) and the locoregional treatment ( HR=1.59, 95% CI: 1.05-2.40) were the independent prognostic factors for sLRR. The initial HER2 status ( HR=1.60, 95% CI: 1.03-2.48) was the independent prognostic factor for DM. The recurrence interval ( HR=1.99, 95% CI: 1.30-3.04), the locoregional treatment ( HR=1.99, 95% CI: 1.43-2.76) and the treatment modalities after recurrence ( HR=1.70, 95% CI: 1.18-2.46) were the independent prognostic factors for PFS. The initial HER2 status ( HR=1.69, 95% CI: 1.02-2.81), the recurrence interval ( HR=1.85, 95% CI: 1.15-2.98) and the treatment modalities after recurrence ( HR=2.48, 95% CI: 1.56-3.96) were the independent prognostic factors for OS. Conclusions:Breast cancer patients after ICWR have an optimistic OS until now, but the risk of sLRR and DM is high. Comprehensive treatment modalities including surgery, radiotherapy and systemic therapy improve the outcome of breast cancer patients with ICWR after mastectomy.

Objective:To explore the predictive value of quantitative electroencephalogram (qEEG) in the poor outcome of children with non-traumatic disturbance of consciousness (DoC) in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).Methods:A prospective study was conducted. From January 2019 to May 2019, a total of 62 patients aged from 1 month to 11 years with non-traumatic DoC in the PICU of the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College were enrolled. Bedside monitoring with NicoletOne monitor was performed within 24 hours after admission, and qEEG parameters, including amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram (aEEG), relative alpha variability (RAV), relative band power (RBP), and spectral entropy (SE) were recorded. The state of consciousness was assessed with modified pediatric Glasgow coma scale (MPGCS) before monitoring. According to the pediatric cerebral performance category score at 1 year after discharge, the enrolled subjects were divided into good and poor outcome groups. The association between these variables and the poor outcome was analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis, and the predictive performance was analyzed by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:There were 39 males and 23 females, with the age of 12.0 (5.8, 24.0) months. Fifty patients (81%) were in the good outcome group and 12 patients (19%) in the poor outcome group. The univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=1.037, 95% CI 1.001-1.074, P=0.041), severe abnormal aEEG ( OR=128.000, 95% CI 10.274-1 594.656, P<0.01), RAV ( OR=0.877, 95% CI 0.810-0.949, P=0.001), SE ( OR=0.892, 95% CI 0.814-0.978, P=0.015), and MPGCS score ( OR=0.511, 95% CI 0.349-0.747, P=0.001) were significantly associated with the poor outcome. However, the multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that only severe abnormal aEEG ( OR=315.692, 95% CI 6.091-16 362.298, P=0.004) and RAV ( OR=0.808, 95% CI 0.664-0.983, P=0.033) were significantly associated with the poor outcome. The area under the curve (AUC) of the aEEG and RAV in predicting the poor outcome were 0.848 (95% CI 0.735-0.927, P<0.01) and 0.847 (95% CI 0.733-0.926, P<0.01), respectively. The optimal cut-off value was severe abnormal for the aEEG and 38% for the RAV, with sensitivity of 67% and 83%, specificity of 98% and 84%, positive predictive value of 89% and 55%, negative predictive value of 92% and 95%, and Youden index of 0.647 and 0.673, respectively. The AUC of the novel combined index of aEEG and RAV for predicting the poor outcome was 0.974 (95% CI 0.898-0.998, P<0.01). Conclusions:The aEEG and RAV are reliable predictors for the poor outcome of children with non-traumatic DoC, and the novel combined index of aEEG and RAV can improve the predictive performance. The qEEG can be used as a routine method for outcome assessment due to its good objectivity.

Objective:To explore the suitability of mechanical insufflation-exsufflation combined with external diaphragm pacemaker in elderly patients with mechanical ventilation and its effect on the complications and prognosis of mechanical ventilation.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 40 elderly patients undergoing mechanical ventilation through nasal tracheal intubation who were admitted to the Geriatric Ward of the PLA General Hospital from September 2018 to December 2019 were selected as the research objects. The patients were divided into the observation group and the control group by random number table method, with 20 cases in each group. The control group continued the traditional airway nursing technique and limb rehabilitation training, while the observation group added mechanical insufflation-exsufflation combined with external diaphragm pacemaker on the basis of the control group. The incidence of pulmonary infection, changes in sputum production at 1 h and 24 h, diaphragm thickening rate, weaning time, success rate of weaning and mortality rate were observed in the two groups before and after intervention.Results:After the intervention, the incidence of pulmonary infection in the observation group was lower than that of the control group, the sputum production and diaphragm thickening rate at 1 h and 24 h were higher than those in the control group, the weaning time was shorter than that of the control group, and the success rate of weaning was higher than that of the control group. All differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . There was no statistically significant difference in mortality rate between the two groups ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:Compared with traditional airway nursing techniques, mechanical insufflation-exsufflation combined with external diaphragm pacemaker can help elderly patients with mechanical ventilation achieve airway clearance and respiratory muscle exercise more safely and effectively, improve strength and endurance of diaphragmatic muscle and enhance the ability of spontaneous cough in elderly patients. In addition, the intervention method is mild and easy for patients to accept, and it is worthy of being widely used in elderly patients with mechanical ventilation.

Objective:
To evaluate the changes of molecular markers of thrombosis in patients with deep venous thrombosis of lower extremities and analyze their value in the detection of venous thrombosis and evaluate the therapeutic effects.
Methods:
In case-control study, we selected traumatic patients after surgery from Beijing Jishuitan Hospital during December 2018 to May 2019. A total of 64 patients with thrombosis were in DVT group, 39 patients without thrombosis were in non-DVT group, and 28 healthy subjects in the same period were in healthy control group. Venous blood samples were taken from all these people. Coagulation parameters thrombin-antithrombin complexes (TAT), plasmin-α2-plasmin inhibitor complexes (PIC) and tissue-type plasminogen activator-inhibitor complexes (t-PAIC) were detected at first diagnosis and one month after rivaroxaban anticoagulation therapy beginning. The differences of the markers between these groups were compared.
Results:
The coagulation markers of the patients with lower extremity deep venous thrombosis increased significantly at diagnosis. The levels of plasma TAT, PIC, t-PAIC and sTM in DVT group were significantly higher than those in non-DVT group (P<0.05). The levels of plasma TAT, PIC and t-PAIC in DVT group were higher than those in healthy control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in sTM level between DVT group and healthy control group (P>0.05). The results and changes of TAT, PIC, t-PAIC in the patients before and after one month of anticoagulation therapy were statistically different (P<0.05) in comparison.
Conclusion
The molecular markers of thrombosis, TAT, PIC and t-PAIC, could effectively detect deep venous thrombosis of lower extremities and showed significant efficacy in evaluating the efficacy of anticoagulation therapy.

Objective:
To introduce the application of free-style perforator flap based on aesthetic units to repair facial defect after tumor resection.
Methods:
By following the concept of free-style perforator flap and the principle of facial aesthetic unit, the design of a free-style perforator flap allowed over any nearby cutaneous vessel chosen purely on the characteristics of its Doppler signal. Conventional knowledge of anatomical landmarks and possible vascular variations were less relevant. A greater freedom in flap selection was gained to recover defect in different forms such as rotation flap, advanced flap and propeller flap, which were all based on free-style perforators. The flap size ranged from 1.5 cm×1.0 cm to 12.0 cm×6.0 cm with the perforator diameter of 0.3-3.0 mm in pedicle, and some of the pedicles are "perforator clusters" .
Results:
A total of 72 cases underwent surgery, and 68 cases survived completely with satisfactory appearance. 1 case healed two weeks later through dressing due to undesired healing, which result ed from high tension secondary postoperative blooding. 3 cases healed in a delay due to congestion and gained acupuncture treat.
Conclusions
The free-style perforator flap, which depended on Doppler-discerned perforator and facial aesthetic unit, represents safe, reliable and versatile for repairing facial defect after extended resection, and it not only offers a greater freedom in flap selection but also provides good aesthetic result.
