		                        			ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of An'erning granules in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia in children. MethodA randomized, double-blind, single-simulation, placebo-controlled trial was designed in this study. The children were randomly assigned into an observation group (An'erning granules combined with ceftriaxone sodium) and a control group (An'erning granules placebo combined with ceftriaxone sodium) according to the ratio of 2∶1. The disease cure rate was taken as the main indicator of efficacy, and the safety of An'erning granules was observed. ResultA total of 206 children (137 in the observation group and 69 in the control group) were included in this study. Before treatment, the age, sex, body height, body weight, diagnosis time of pneumonia, and symptom and sign scores had no significant differences between the two groups. After 8 days of continuous medication, the observation group[70.80%(97/137)] had higher cure rate than the control group[56.52%(39/69)](χ2=4.17,P<0.05) and total effective rate of chest X-ray [97.98%(97/99)] than the control group[86.27%(44/51)] (χ2=12.98,P<0.01). The observation group was superior to the control group in the alleviation of TCM syndrome under the condition of 0-3 g dose stratification on day 3 of medication (P<0.01). The recovery time, time to complete fever abatement, time to fever abatement and expectoration alleviation, rate of conversion to severe case, and reduction in the frequency of antibiotic use showed no significant differences between the two groups. In terms of safety, 13 and 7 adverse events occurred in the observation group and control group, respectively, which were relieved or disappeared after drug withdrawal or symptomatic treatment and showed no significant difference between the two groups. ConclusionIntravenous drip of ceftriaxone sodium combined with An'erning granules is effective in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia in children. It can accelerate the absorption of pulmonary inflammation, alleviate the clinical symptoms in a short time for young children or the children with mild symptoms, and is safe in clinical application.

		                        			Acute abdomen is often a general term for abdominal diseases with acute abdominal pain as the main manifestation. Common clinical acute abdomen includes acute appendicitis, acute cholecystitis, acute cholangitis, acute pancreatitis, gastrointestinal perforation, intestinal obstruction and other diseases, its characteristics are great changes, rapid progress, high misdiagnosis rate, high postoperative complication rate and high mortality rate, accurate diagnosis and early treatment can obtain a good prognosis. With our in-depth understanding of the occurrence and development of acute abdomen diseases and the development of evidence-based medicine, minimally invasive technology plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and treatment of common acute abdomen. Laparoscopy on diagnosis can clarify disease diagnosis to a large extent. For those who cannot undergo surgery, decompression and drainage under endoscopy provides a diversified plan for treatment decisions. In addition, minimally invasive techniques are also used in etiological treatment and complications. Disease, prevention of recurrence in all aspects, Minimally invasive technology is beneficial to the etiological treatment of biliary pancreatitis, appendicitis and cholangitis, and endoscopic technology is more consistent with the minimally invasive concept in the treatment of complications.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the application value of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology assisted laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of segment 8 (Lap-S8).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 8 liver cancer patients including 7 cases with hepatocellular carcinoma and 1 case with intrahepatic cholangio-carcinoma who underwent 3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 in the Hunan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were collected. There were 7 males and 1 female, aged from 49.0 to 80.0 years, with a median age of 56.5 years. Of the 8 patients, 6 cases underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of the entire segment 8, 1 case underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of ventral subsegmental of the segment 8 and 1 case underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of dorsal subsegmental of the segment 8. 3D printing technology was used to assist preoperative evaluation and intraoperative navigation for all 8 patients. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination, internet or telephone interview to detect survival and tumor recurrence of patients after operation up to March 2021. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical situations: all the 8 patients underwent 3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 successfully, without conversion to open surgery. The operation time, hepatic portal occlusion time and volume of intraoperative blood loss of the 8 patients were (216±41)minutes, (56±11)minutes and 75 mL(range, 50 to 300 mL), respectively. There was no intraoperative blood transfusion in 8 patients, and the surgical margin of the 8 patients was negative. (2) Postoperative situations: the duration of postoperative hospital stay of the 8 patients were (9±3)days. There was no complication such as postoperative hemorrhage, biliary fistula, liver abscess or abdominal infection occurred. (3) Follow-up: all the 8 patients were followed up for 3.0?24.0 months, with a median follow-up time of 12.5 months. During the follow-up, 1 of 8 patients with preoperative diagnosis of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma developed tumor recurrence at 5 months after operation. The patient underwent laparoscopic surgery followed with the transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and target therapy, and survived with tumor. There was no tumor recurrence in the other 7 patients.Conclusion:3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 is safe and feasible.
