Objective:To study the clinicopathological characteristics, treatment and prognosis in lupus nephritis (LN) patients with renal thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), so as to provide more theoretical basis for clinicians to recognize and treat this disease.Methods:The clinical data of LN patients who underwent renal biopsy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 1, 2012 to May 31, 2019 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. According to renal clinicopathological examination, the patients were divided into renal TMA group and non-renal TMA group. The clinical data, laboratory examination, renal pathological examination, therapeutic measures and prognostic between the two groups were compared. Follow-up end points were defined as composite ends, including all-cause death, entry into end-stage renal disease, and estimated glomerular filtration rate decrease>50% of baseline. Kaplan-Meier survival curve and log-rank test were used to compare the difference of survival rate between the two groups, and multivariate Cox regression equation was used to analyze the risk factors of endpoint events in LN patients.Results:A total of 1 133 patients with LN were enrolled in this study. Patients with renal TMA were more likely to have hypertension ( χ2=16.310, P<0.001), higher baseline serum creatinine ( Z=-6.918, P<0.001) and 24-hour urine protein ( Z=-2.232, P=0.026), and higher renal pathology activity index (AI) score ( Z=1.957, P=0.001)and chronic index (CI) score ( Z=1.836, P=0.002). The proportions of hormone shock ( P<0.001) and plasma exchange ( P<0.001) in the renal TMA group were higher than those in non-renal TMA group. After treatment of (12±2) months, patients in the renal TMA group had a lower complete response rate ( χ2=10.455, P=0.001) and a higher non-response rate ( χ2=6.047, P=0.014) than those in non-renal TMA group, and were associated with worse prognosis (Log-rank test χ2=26.490, P<0.001). Renal TMA was an independent risk factor for poor prognosis ( HR=2.347, 95% CI 1.210-4.553, P=0.012). Conclusions:Compared with LN patients without renal TMA, LN patients with renal TMA are more likely to have hypertension, with higher serum creatinine, 24-hour urinary protein, AI and CI, suggesting poorer treatment response and renal prognosis. Moreover, renal TMA is an independent risk factor for poor prognosis in patients with LN.

ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between snoring and hypertension in middle-aged and elderly residents in Yangpu District， Shanghai. MethodsThe data of this study were obtained from the project of “early screening and comprehensive intervention for high-risk of cardiovascular diseases” carried out by the National Cardiovascular Disease Center in Yangpu District in 2017. Questionnaire survey， physical examination and laboratory test were conducted among permanent residents aged 35‒75 years. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influence of sleep snoring on hypertension. ResultsA total of 11 100 people with complete data were included in the analysis， The self-reported snoring rate of male was significantly higher than female （48.12% vs 36.21%， χ²=137.70， P<0.01）. The proportion of self-reported occasional snoring， frequent snoring and daily snoring were 14.67%（1 628/11 100）， 7.59%（843/11 100） and 17.50% （1 943/11 100）， respectively， and the prevalence of hypertension gradually increased with the increase of snoring frequency （≤60 years，male： χtrend2=51.83，P<0.01；female： χtrend2=95.01， P<0.01； >60 years， male： χtrend2=9.22， P<0.01； female： χtrend2=27.10， P<0.01）. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that in people aged ≤60 years， both men and women， snoring frequency was significantly associated with hypertension after adjusting for education， total family income， smoking， alcohol consumption， diabetes， body mass index （BMI） and waist circumference. In the males： occasional snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.95 （1.36，2.80）， frequent snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.55 （1.04，2.31）， daily snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.92 （1.43，2.59）. In the females： occasional snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.31 （1.08，1.59）， frequent snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.41 （1.07，1.88）， daily snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.63 （1.32，2.00）. But in people aged >60 years， the significant association between snoring frequencies and hypertension did not exist， after adjusting for education， total family income， smoking， alcohol consumption， diabetes， BMI and waist circumference. In the males： occasional snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.31 （0.97，1.78）， frequent snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.22 （0.87，1.73）， daily snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.19 （0.94，1.73）. In the females： occasional snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.06 （0.87，1.29）， frequent snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.30 （0.99，1.72）， daily snoring OR （95%CI） was 1.19 （0.97，1.46）. ConclusionIn people ≤60 years old， snoring is significantly associated with hypertension， so more attention should be paid to sleep snoring monitoring in middle-aged people for early detection of hypertension.

Objective:To explore the effect of scenario simulation nursing in fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) examination of preschool children.Methods:From January 2017 to March 2021, 98 preschool children who underwent FFA examination in the Fluorescence Contrast Room of Shanxi Eye Hospital were selected as the research object. Children from 2017 to December 2018 were in the control group with routine nursing, and children from January 2019 to March 2021 were in the experimental group with scenario simulation nursing. The incidence of adverse reactions and satisfaction with cooperation were compared between the two groups of children.Results:The incidence of adverse reactions in children in the experimental group was 2.00%, which was lower than 16.67% in children in the control group. The satisfaction with cooperation in the experimental group was 94.0%, which was higher than 79.2% in the control group. The differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The application of scenario simulation nursing in FFA examination of preschool children can effectively reduce the incidence of adverse reactions in children and improve the satisfaction of children with cooperation during the examination.

Objective: To investigate the clinical value of laparoscopic peritoneal dialysis catheter implantation in peritoneal chemotherapy for gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis. Methods: From January 2019 to June 2019, the clinical data of 6 patients diagnosed as gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis were retrospectively analyzed in the Gastrointestinal Surgery Department of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. Five were male and 1 was female. The median age was 69.5 (28-77) years. The median body mass index (BMI) was 22.8 (19.6-23.5). All procedures were performed under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation. The patient′s body position and facility layout in the operating room were consistent with those of laparoscopic gastrectomy. The operator′s position: the main surgeon was located on the right side of the patient, the first assistant stood on the left side of the patient, and the scopist stood between the patient′s legs. Surgical procedure: (1) trocar location: three abdominal trocars was adopted, with one 12 mm umbilical port for the 30° laparoscope (point A). Location of the other two trocars was dependent on the procedure of exploration or biopsy as well as the two polyester cuff position of the peritoneal dialysis catheter: Usually one 5 mm port in the anterior midline 5 cm inferior to the umbilicus point was selected as point B to ensure that the distal end of the catheter could reach the Douglas pouch. The other 5 mm port was located in the right lower quadrant lateral to the umbilicus to establish the subcutaneous tunnel tract, and the proximal cuff was situated 2 cm away from the desired exit site (point C).(2) exploration of the abdominal cavity: a 30° laparoscope was inserted from 12 mm trocar below the umbilicus to explore the entire peritoneal cavity. The uterus and adnexa should be explored additionally for women. Once peritoneal metastasis was investigated and identified, primary laparoscopic peritoneal dialysis catheter implantation was performed so as to facilitate subsequent peritoneal chemotherapy. Ascites were collected for cytology in patients with ascites. (3) peritoneal dialysis catheter placement: the peritoneal dialysis catheter was introduced into the abdominal cavity from point A. Under the direct vision of laparoscopy, 2-0 absorbable ligature was reserved at the expected fixation point of the proximal cuff (point B) for the final knot closure. Non-traumatic graspers were used to pull the distal cuff of peritoneal dialysis catheter out of the abdominal cavity through point B. The 5-mm trocar was removed simultaneously, and the distal cuff was fixed between bilateral rectus sheaths at the anterior midline port site preperitoneally. To prevent subsequent ascites and chemotherapy fluid extravasation, the reserved crocheted wire was knotted. From point C the subcutaneous tunnel tract was created before the peritoneal steath towards the port site lateral to the umbilicus. Satisfactory catheter irrigation and outflow were then confirmed. Chemotherapy regimen after peritoneal dialysis catheterization: all patients began intraperitoneal chemotherapy on the second day after surgery. On the 1st and 8th day of each 3-weeks cycle, paclitaxel (20 mg/m²) was administered through peritoneal dialysis catheter, and paclitaxel (50 mg/m²) was injected intravenously. Meanwhile, S-1 was orally administered twice daily at a dose of 80 mg·m^-2·d^-1 for 14 consecutive days followed by 7-days rest. To observe the patients′ intraoperative and postoperative conditions. Results: All the procedures were performed successfully without intraoperative complications or conversion to laparotomy. No 30 day postoperative complications were observed. The median operative time was 33.5 (23-38) min. The median time to first flatus was 1(1-2) days, and the median postoperative hospital stay was 3 (3-4) days, without short-term complications within 30 days postoperatively. The last follow-up was up to July 10, 2019, and the patients were followed for 4(1-6) months. No ascites extravasation was observed and no death occurred in the 6 patients. There was no catheter obstruction or peritoneal fluid extravasation during and after chemotherapy. Conclusion Laparoscopic peritoneal dialysis catheter implantation was safe and feasible for patients with peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer. The abdominal exploration, tumor staging and the abdominal chemotherapy device implantation can be completed simultaneously, which could simplify the surgical approach, improve the quality of life for patients and further propose a new direction for the development of abdominal chemotherapy.

Understanding the effect of immunosuppressive agents on intestinal microbiota is important to reduce the mortality and morbidity from orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). We investigated the relationship between the commonly used immunosuppressive agent cyclosporine A (CSA) and the intestinal microbial variation in an OLT model. The rat samples were divided as follows: (1) N group (normal control); (2) I group (isograft LT, Brown Norway [BN] rat to BN); (3) R group (allograft LT, Lewis to BN rat); and (4) CSA group (R group treated with CSA). The intestinal microbiota was assayed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis profiles and by using real-time polymerase chain reaction. The liver histopathology and the alanine/aspartate aminotransferase ratio after LT were both ameliorated by CSA. In the CSA group, the numbers of rDNA gene copies of Clostridium cluster I, Clostridium cluster XIV, and Enterobacteriaceae decreased, whereas those of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii increased compared with the R group. Cluster analysis indicated that the samples from the N, I, and CSA groups were clustered, whereas the other clusters contained the samples from the R group. Hence, CSA ameliorates hepatic graft injury and partially restores gut microbiota following LT, and these may benefit hepatic graft rejection.

Objective To explore the current situation and requirements of the health management services among the middle-aged and elderly people in Hainan province for optimizing the health management service pattern. Methods The random sampling method was adopted to perform the survey and analysis on the current situation and requirements of the health management services among 600 middle-aged and elderly people by using the mode of questionnaire combined with interview. Results Totally 575 respondents completed the questionnaire. 43.1% of respondents could correctly understand the concept of health, 40.5% of them thought that "Health is the condition without disease" ;the main ways for getting the health knowledge by these people were mainly joining the intercommunication meeting of health management (97. 2%), phone counseling (94. 4%) and brochures (90.3%) ;the requirements of the health management service mainly focused on the middle age and elderly people aged 45- 59 years old. The most needed health management service items were the mental health service (99.0 %), cultural entertainment service(97.4 %) and health care recovery(84 %). The health management requirements had no statistical difference compared with the gender (x2 = 0. 678, P= 0. 712), cultural degree (x2 = 5. 584, P = 0. 471 ) and medical insurance situation (x2 = 3. 886, P = 0. 420) ;but compared with the age, the difference was statistically significant (x2 = 9. 697, P = 0.04). Conclusion The consciousness of health management among middle age and old people needs to be increased,the health management information platform construction and propaganda promotional efforts should be strengthened, the cooperation between government and enterprise should be strengthened, the pertinence of the health management service should be enhanced and the related policy laws and regulations should be perfected.

Objective To compare the dosimetric differences between intracavitary brachytherapy in combination with interstitial brachytherapy or not for locally advanced cervical cancer.Methods From May 2016 to March 2017,35 patients with locally advanced cervical cancer treated with combined external beams and intracavitary/interstitial brachytherapy were selected in this study.The prescription of intensity-modulated radiation therapy was:46.8-50.4 Gy/26-28 fractions,1.8 Gy/fraction.The prescription for combined intracavitary/interstitial brachytherapy was 7 Gy/fraction × 4,once per week.Each patient was first implanted with a three tube applicator for brachytherapy,and the CT images were acquired for treatment planning.The three tube applicator was removed before a uterine tube and needles were implanted,thereafter planning images were acquired again.Dose to the targets and organs at risk were evaluated respectively for the two groups.Results A total of 212 brachytherapy plans were developed,including 106 intracavitary and 106 endoluminal combined interstitial plans.The target dose in endoluminal combined interstitial brachytherapy was significantly higher than that of intracavitary treatment alone,where D90 of the high-risk clinical target volume (CTV) and moderate CTV were both significantly increased (t =-6.01,-2.73,P ＜ 0.05).The D2 cm3 of the bladder,rectum and sigmoid colon were significantly reduced (t=3.07,4.52,2.91,P＜0.05).Conclusions The application of the endoluminal combined interstitial brachytherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer can significantly increase the target dose,and reduce the dose to organs at risk such as the bladder,rectum and sigmoid colon.
