【Objective】 To investigate the effects of 450 nm diode blue laser on the morphological changes and thermal damage of renal pelvis under different conditions. 【Methods】 An ex vivo study was conducted on a fresh porcine pelvis model (7 cm×5 cm×3 cm). The laser fiber was fixed on the mechanical arm perpendicular to the renal pelvis tissue, and the distance between them was 1-2 mm. The renal pelvis tissue was incised at a speed of 1-2 mm/s and power of 5-30 W. After the incised tissue was fixed in formalin (4%), the morphology, depth, width and coagulation thickness were observed with naked eyes and a microscope. 【Results】 The different powers had different vaporization and incision effects. When the operating distance was 2 mm, the speed was 2 mm/s and power was 5 W, the vaporization depth, width and coagulation thickness were approximately 0 9 mm, 0.25 mm and 0.35 mm, respectively. With the increase of power, the vaporization width and depth increased, and the coagulation thickness was 0.35-0.50 mm. When the power was more than 10 W, the renal pelvis tissue was easily penetrated. When the laser power was 20 W, the section of the renal pelvis showed an irregular shape of vaporization. When the operating distance was 1 mm, the whole renal pelvis tissue was easily vaporized. When it was 2 mm, a wide and safe energy treatment window was produced. 【Conclusion】 The 450 nm diode blue laser can vaporize and incise renal pelvis tissue safely and effectively, with high precision and little thermal damage. It is expected to be a new surgical tool in the treatment of renal pelvis lesions.

Objective:To analyze the difference of clinical characteristics and outcomes of infants with moderate and severe pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome(PARDS)diagnosed according to baseline oxygenation index(OI) in pediatric intensive care unit(PICU).Methods:Second analysis of the data collected from the "Efficacy of pulmonary surfactant (PS) in the treatment of children with moderate and severe ARDS" program.Retrospectively compare of the differences in clinical data such as general condition, underlying diseases, OI, mechanical ventilation, PS administration and outcomes among infants with moderate and severe PARDS divided by baseline OI who admitted to PICUs at 14 participating tertiary hospitals from 2016 to December 2021.Results:Among the 101 cases, 55 cases (54.5%) were moderate and 46 cases (45.5%) were severe PARDS.The proportion of male in the severe group (50.0% vs.72.7%, P=0.019) and the pediatric critical illness score(PCIS)[72 (68, 78) vs.76 (70, 80), P=0.019] were significantly lower than those in the moderate group, while there was no significant difference regarding age, body weight, etiology of PARDS and underlying diseases.The utilization rate of high-frequency ventilator in the severe group was significantly higher than that in the moderate group (34.8% vs.10.9%, P=0.004), but there was no significant difference in PS use, fluid load and pulmonary complications.The 24 h OI improvement (0.26±0.33 vs.0.04±0.34, P=0.001) and the 72 h OI improvement[0.34 (-0.04, 0.62) vs.0.15 (-0.14, 0.42), P=0.029)]in the severe group were significantly better than those in the moderate group, but there was no significant difference regarding mortality, length of hospital stay and intubation duration after diagnosis of PARDS between the two groups. Conclusion:In moderate and severe(divided by baseline OI) PARDS infants with invasive mechanical ventilation, children in severe group have better oxygenation improvement in the early stage after PARDS identified and are more likely to receive high frequency ventilation compared to those in moderate group.Baseline OI can not sensitively distinguish the outcomes and is not an ideal index for PARDS grading of this kind of patient.

【Objective】 To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of transurethral blue laser vaporescetion of the prostate in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). 【Methods】 The clinical data of 100 BPH patients undergoing the surgery in our hospital during May and Sep.2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The observations included operation time, bladder irrigation duration, postoperative catheter indwelling time, hospital stay, complications, as well as changes in hemoglobin, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Quality of Life Scale (QoL) score, maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), bladder residual urine volume (PVR), and other related indicators before and 3 months after surgery. 【Results】 All 100 procedures were successfully completed without turning to transurethral resection of the prostate and/or open surgery. No blood transfusion was needed. The operation time was (37.8±19.6) min, bladder irrigation time (1.3±0.5) d, catheter indwelling time (12.7±0.4) d, hospital stay (3.4±0.7) d, hemoglobin drop (4.1±7.1) g/L. The postoperative IPSS and QoL score were significantly lower than those before surgery (P<0.05); postoperative Qmax was higher than that before surgery (P<0.05); postoperative PVR was smaller than that before surgery (P<0.05). Urinary retention occurred in 4 cases (4%) after removal of the catheter; carnal hematuria and bladder clot formation occurred in 3 cases (3%); mixed urinary incontinence occurred in 2 cases (2%); stenosis of the external urethra occurred in 2 cases (2%). All complications were cured after symptomatic treatment. There were no serious perioperative complications, no intraoperative complications such as ureteral orifice injury or bladder perforation, and no serious postoperative complications such as transurethral resection syndrome (TURS), permanent urinary incontinence or bladder neck contracture. 【Conclusion】 The blue laser surgical system had satisfactory effects of vaporization and hemostasia. Transurethral blue laser vaporesection of the prostate is safe and effective in the treatment of BPH.

Objective to investigate the clinical effect of constant temperature vaginal mould in preventing vaginal stricture in patients with cervical cancer treated with radiotherapy. Methods from January 2017 to December 2018, 80 patients with cervical cancer were selected and divided into vaginal irrigation control group (n = 40) and observation group (n = 40). The incidence of vaginal stricture was compared between the two groups. Results the incidence of vaginal stenosis was 32.50% in the observation group and 70.00% in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion vaginal mould is helpful to reduce the incidence of vaginal stenosis caused by external irradiation and close irradiation, which is worth popularizing in the future.

Objective: To investigate the application of gradient cushion on prevention of supine hypotension syndrome (SHS) undergoing cesarean section. Methods: 450 parturients undergoing cesarean section with spinal and epidural anesthesia, aged 20-45 years, ASA Ⅰ, Ⅱor Ⅲ grades, were randomly assigned into three groups: gradient cushion group (group A), sandbag group (group B) and left-leaning-operating table group (group C), 150 cases in each. The posture intervention was alternated after completion of spinal and epidural anesthesia. Recorded the cases of SHS, and collected systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR) and saturation of pulse oximetry (SpO₂) before anesthesia, 2 min, 5 min, 10 min after anesthesia and prefetus removal from uterus. And assessed the position comfort with surgical posture comfort scale. Results: The incidence of SHS in group A was 8.0%(12/150), in group B was 20.0% (30/150), and in group C was 21.3% (32/150). The rate of SHS was higher in group A than other groups (χ² value was 8.970, 10.653, all P<0.01). The score with surgical posture comfort scale was (47.03 ± 3.01), (38.13 ± 4.70), (36.10 ± 4.04), which was higher in group A than group B or group C, and the score with surgical posture comfort scale was higher in group B than group C (t value was 27.413, 30.227, 2.542, P<0.01 or 0.05). SBP and DBP were higher in group A and group B than group C at 2 min, 5 min, 10 min after anesthesia and prefetus removal from uterus, and SBP and DBP were higher in group A than group B at 2 min, 5 min, 10 min after anesthesia and prefetus removal from uterus, HR and RR were higher in group A and group B than group C at 2 min, 5 min, 10 min after anesthesia and prefetus removal from uterus, and HR and RR were higher in group A than group B at 2 min, 5 min, 10 min after anesthesia and prefetus removal from uterus (t value was -15.842-21.117, P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusion After spinal and epidural anesthesia, applying the gradient cushion for adjustment of position would be effective to reduce the occurrence of SHS, simple to handle, decreasing to change the position and increasing to comfort after position in cesarean section.

Objective: To explore the relative risk factors, clinical intervention and prognosis of hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) in patients with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) . Methods: From January 1 2010 to May 31 2017, 425 patients with allo-HSCT received a retrospective analysis. Results: ①Among the 425 patients, 262 were male and 163 were female. The median age was 26 (2-56) years old. There were 138 cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) , 96 cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) , 29 cases of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) , 98 cases of severe aplastic anemia (SAA) and 64 cases of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) . 221 cases of sibling match transplantation, 89 cases of unrelated donor transplantation and 115 cases of haplotype transplantation. ②108 patients (25.41%) developed HC, with the median time of onset of 32 (3-243) days and the median duration of 20 (3-93) days; 33 cases (30.56%) were grade Ⅰ, 49 cases of grade Ⅱ (45.36%) , 21 cases (19.44%) of grade Ⅲ, and 5 cases (4.63%) of grade Ⅳ. ③103 cases of HC were cured, 5 patients were ineffective, 12 patients died and died of transplantation related complications (infection, recurrence, severe acute GVHD, secondary implant failure) . ④Univariate analysis showed that age < 30, type of transplantation, CMV and acute GVHD were associated with the occurrence of HC after allo-HSCT. Multivariate analysis showed that acute GVHD was an independent risk factor for HC after allo-HSCT. Conclusion Prognosis of HC after allo-HSCT was better after timely treatment.

Objective: To investigate and analyze the impact on PLT recovery of recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) in severe aplastic anemia (SAA) patients with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods: A retrospective analysis of Hematology Division of General Hospital of Jinan Military Command was conducted in the 85 SAA cases who treated with allo-HSCT from January 2010 to March 2017. According to the administration of medicines for platelets, 85 patients were divided into rhTPO group (n=29), rhIL-11 group (n=27) and blank group (n=29), respectively. The median time of PLT ≥20×10⁹/L, PLT ≥50×10⁹/L, and PLT ≥100×10⁹/L, the numbers of megakaryocytes in marrow smear (25±5) days after transplantation and the quantities of platelet transfusion were analyzed retrospectively. The adverse events of rhTPO and rhIL-11 groups were observed. Results: There were no significant differences in the recovery of granulocytes and PLT ≥20×10⁹/L among the three groups (P>0.05). The time of PLT ≥50×10⁹/L in rhTPO group was shorter than that in blank group [16.5 (11-39) d vs 22 (14-66) d, P<0.05], as well as the time of PLT ≥100×10⁹/L [rhTPO: 23 (12-51) d; rhIL-11: 28 (12-80) d; blank group: 35 (18-86) d, P<0.05]. Platelet transfusions were also less in rhTPO group than in rhIL-11 and blank groups [20 (10-30) U, 30 (10-50) U, 35 (10-70) U, P<0.05]. The counts of megakaryocyte in rhTPO group, rhIL-11 group and blank group were 31.5 (0-200), 12 (0-142) and 11(0-187) (P<0.05), respectively. The difference between rhTPO group and rhIL-11 group was statistically significant (P<0.05), but no difference between rhIL-11 group and blank group (P>0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that rhTPO was an independent factor for platelet recovery [HR=4.01 (95%CI 1.81-9.97), P=0.010]. The rhTPO group had no obvious adverse events. Conclusion rhTPO can promote platelet recovery of SAA patients after allo-HSCT, reduce platelet transfusion with safety.

As a model organism, zebrafish have many advantages over other animal models and is suitable for studies on establishment of human disease model and mechanism.In zebrafish, there are two phases of endocrine formation during early development, which are directed by concomitant activity of many signaling pathways.Zebrafish pancreas possess similar cell structure with that of other animals, which can express various endocrine hormones including insulin.The main organs required for metabolic control, such as the pancreas, islet, and insulin sensitive tissue (muscle, liver) are conserved in zebrafish, and the mechanisms of glucose regulation in zebrafish is similar to that seen in mammalian models.These render it an excellent model to study glucose metabolism.Hyperglycemia in zebrafish model can be induced by administration of the diabetogenic drug, streptozotocin (STZ), alternatively immersion of the fish in glucose solution and water, or disturbing of signaling pathways associated with glucose metabolism.Glucose levels in adult zebrafish blood or embryo tissue and phenotype of retinal cell layers or retinal vasculature are the commonly used measurement organs in zebrafish diabetic models.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) in patients with relapsed and refractory malignant lymphoma. Methods The clinical data of 10 patients (6 males and 4 females) with relapsed (4 cases) and refractory (6 cases) malignant lymphomas who received AHSCT in General Hospital of Jinan Military Command from August 2011 to June 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. The median age was 34 years (20 ˉ50 years); 5 cases of Hodgkin lymphoma, 5 cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Before transplantation, all patients received several courses of radiotherapy or chemotherapy. High dose of cytoxan combined with G-CSF were used to mobilize peripheral hematopoietic stem cell, and preconditioning regimen included BEAM, CBV or TBI. Results The median mononuclear cell of 10 patients was 7.385 × 108/kg. Complete remission was achieved in 8 patients after transplantation, and 2 cases relapsed. Median follow-up time was 18 months (20ˉ50 months). The overall survival rate and disease-free survival rate both were 80%(8/10). All patients had nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, oral mucositis and other adverse reactions, which could be tolerated. Conclusion ASHCT is an effective and safe method for treatment of relapsed and refractory malignant lymphomas.
