Background::High-dose dual therapy (HDDT) with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and amoxicillin has attracted widespread attention due to its favorable efficacy in eradicating Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori). This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of high-dose PPI–amoxicillin dual therapy and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for H. pylori rescue treatment. Methods::This was a prospective, randomized, multicenter, non-inferiority trial. Patients recruited from eight centers who had failed previous treatment were randomly (1:1) allocated to two eradication groups: HDDT (esomeprazole 40 mg and amoxicillin 1000 mg three times daily; the HDDT group) and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (esomeprazole 40 mg, bismuth potassium citrate 220 mg, and furazolidone 100 mg twice daily, combined with tetracycline 500 mg three times daily; the tetracycline, furazolidone, esomeprazole, and bismuth [TFEB] group) for 14 days. The primary endpoint was the H. pylori eradication rate. The secondary endpoints were adverse effects, symptom improvement rates, and patient compliance. Results::A total of 658 patients who met the criteria were enrolled in this study. The HDDT group achieved eradication rates of 75.4% (248/329), 81.0% (248/306), and 81.3% (248/305) asdetermined by the intention-to-treat (ITT), modified intention-to-treat (MITT), and per-protocol (PP) analyses, respectively. The eradication rates were similar to those in the TFEB group: 78.1% (257/329), 84.2% (257/305), and 85.1% (257/302). The lower 95% confidence interval boundary (–9.19% in the ITT analysis, –9.21% in the MITT analysis, and –9.73% in the PP analysis) was greater than the predefined non-inferiority margin of –10%, establishing a non-inferiority of the HDDT group vs. the TFEB group. The incidence of adverse events in the HDDT group was significantly lower than that in the TFEB group (11.1% vs. 26.8%, P < 0.001). Symptom improvement rates and patients’ compliance were similar between the two groups. Conclusions::Fourteen-day HDDT is non-inferior to bismuth-containing quadruple therapy, with fewer adverse effects and good treatment compliance, suggesting HDDT as an alternative for H. pylori rescue treatment in the local region. Trial registration::Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT04678492.

Objective:To evaluate the assistant role of manifestations under tracheoscopy in the diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) in severe patients.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted. The patients with suspected IPA admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical College from January 2015 to December 2019 were enrolled. The diagnosis, clinical diagnosis and suspected diagnosis were made according to the grading criteria of Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of invasive fungal infection in severe patients (2007). Those who met the criteria were enrolled in the IPA group, and those who did not meet the criteria or other pathogens were enrolled in the non-IPA group. The general data of the patients were collected, and the changes of tracheal and bronchial mucosa under tracheal microscope before and after treatment were recorded, as well as the results of galactomannan (GM) test and aetiology culture of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). The baseline, bronchoscopy and pulmonary CT manifestations and their dynamic changes were compared in each group. Results:A total of 142 patients with suspected IPA were finally enrolled. Among them, 12 were pathologically proven IPA, 77 were probable IPA, 22 were possible IPA, and 31 were undefined IPA. Of the 142 patients, 60 had typical manifestations of mucosal injury under bronchoscopy, including 7 proven IPA patients (58.3%), 52 probable IPA patients (67.5%), and 1 possible IPA patient (4.5%), but none undefined IPA patient. The patients undergoing lung CT scan were 12 proven IPA patients (100%), 73 probable IPA patients (94.8%), and 21 possible IPA patients (95.5%), respectively. Most of the Chest CT showed patchy or strip density increasing and other non-specific manifestations. There were 3 proven IPA patients (25.0%), 7 probable IPA patients (9.0%), and 0 possible IPA patient (0%) who had typical IPA CT manifestations (halo sign and cavity or crescent sign). Among the patients of proven IPA and probable IPA (89 cases), there were a total of 35 cases with endoscopic airway mucosal injury and tracheoscopy reexamination ≥ 3 times. All the 35 patients received anti-aspergillus treatment, among which 16 survived and 19 died. Among the 16 patients who survived, the microscopic appearance of mucosal injury was gradually reduced and the clinical manifestations were gradually improved. Of the 19 patients who died, 16 had deteriorated endoscopic airway mucosal injury.Conclusions:The specific manifestations of severe patients with bronchial mucosal injury are of great significance in the diagnosis of IPA. In the case of severe patients who cannot receive pathological examination or chest CT in time, dynamic observation of the changes of airway mucosal injury is a simple auxiliary method to discover the changes of patients' condition in time, evaluate the effect of antifungal therapy and the prognosis of IPA.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application and efficacy of laparoscopic splenectomy combined with disconnection in megalosplenia and portal hypertension.Methods:The clinical data of 58 patients with splenomegaly of portal hypertension treated in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery of Huangshi Central Hospital of Eastern Hubei Medical Group from January 2016 to January 2020 were analyzed retrospectively, they were divided into laparoscopy group ( n=34) and laparotomy group ( n=24), Laparoscopic splenectomy combined with devascularization was performed in the laparoscopic group, and open splenectomy combined with devascularization was performed in the open group.The general data, operation time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative exhaust time, postoperative hospital stay and the incidence of postoperative complications (abdominal bleeding, B/C pancreatic leakage, abdominal infection, etc.) were compared between the two groups. The measurement data obeying normal distribution was expressed by mean±standard deviation ( Mean± SD), and the t test was used comparison between groups, and the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability was used comparison between enumeration data. Results:The surgery was successful in both two groups. 2 cases in the laparoscopic group were converted to laparotomy, There was no death in perioperative period.The operation time of laparoscopy group was (205.3±28.6) min and that of laparotomy group was (156.4±20.7) min, which was significantly longer than that of laparotomy group ( P=0.012). The intraoperative bleeding volume of laparotomy group was (327.2±39.5) mL, which was significantly higher than that of laparoscopy group (246.5±32.3) mL. there was significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.05). The postoperative exhaust time and postoperative hospital stay in the laparoscopic group were (2.6±1.4) d and (9.7±2.3) d, the laparotomy group were (3.8±1.5) d and (12.9±2.7) d respectively. The laparoscopy group was shorter than the laparotomy group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There were 0 case of abdominal bleeding, 2 cases of B/C pancreatic leakage and 3 cases of abdominal infection in the laparoscopic group, 1 case of abdominal bleeding, 2 cases of B/C pancreatic leakage and 5 cases of abdominal infection in the open group. The incidence of postoperative complications in the laparoscopic group was lower than that in the open group, but there was no significant difference between the two groups( χ2=2.807, P=0.088). Conclusions:Laparoscopic splenectomy combined with devasculation is safe and feasible, with advantages such as little trauma, quick recovery of postoperative intestinal function and short hospital stay, which benefit patients. However, the operation is difficult and requires high technical and psychological quality of surgeons.

Objective:To study and explore the prevalence, characteristics, preliminary risk factors, as well as their relationship with nutritional scores in liver cirrhotic patient with chronic periodontitis.Methods:163 patients with liver cirrhosis who were hospitalized in the Hepatology Division, Department of Internal Medicine at Tianjin Third Central Hospital from June to September 2018 were enrolled as the case group, while the control group consisted 140 healthy individuals enrolled during the same period. Periodontal examination, biochemical examination and oral hygiene habits were investigated. The prevalence of periodontitis in the two groups was compared, and the risk factors of severe periodontitis were conducted by multivariate regression analysis.Results:The prevalence of chronic periodontitis was significantly higher in patients with liver cirrhosis than healthy control population, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The prevalence of severe periodontitis and full edentulous jaws was significantly higher in patients with liver cirrhosis than healthy control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05 and P < 0.001). Compared with the healthy control group, the depth of periodontal pocket and the degree of attachment loss were significantly increased in the liver cirrhosis group ( P < 0.001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that liver cirrhosis was the independent risk factors for both groups of patients with severe periodontitis (χ 2 = 11.046, P < 0.001). Univariate and multivariate regression analysis showed that toothbrushing frequency, nutritional risk score, prealbumin level and Child-Pugh grade were independent risk factors for occurrence of severe periodontitis in liver cirrhotic patient (χ 2 = 5.252, P = 0.022; χ 2 = 24.162, P < 0.001; χ 2 = 4.159, P = 0.041; χ 2 = 9.249, P = 0.002). Conclusion:The prevalence of periodontitis is significantly higher in patients with liver cirrhosis than healthy individuals, and liver cirrhosis is an independent risk factor for the occurrence of severe periodontitis. Toothbrushing frequency, nutritional risk score, prealbumin level and Child-Pugh grade are risk factors for severe periodontitis in patients with liver cirrhosis.

β-defensin is a primary protein immune factor in channel catfish's (Ietalurus punetaus) resistance to pathogenic microorganisms. Its primary structure contains a signal peptide composed of 24 amino acid residues at the N-terminal and a mature peptide composed of 43 amino acid residues at the C-terminal. The mature peptide region is responsible for the biological activity of β-defensin. In the present study, a recombinant strain of Pichia pastoris that produces channel catfish β-defensin, was constructed to realize the biosynthesis of channel catfish β-defensin based on eukaryotic expression. First, the β-defensin gene "IPBD" was isolated from the skin of channel catfish by RT-PCR. After linking it with the expression vector pPICZA, pPICZA-IPBD was transferred into competent P. pastoris X-33 cells to obtain recombinant P. pastoris strains. The yeast transformants with multi-copy gene inserts were obtained by using the culture medium containing 1 000 μg/mL zeocin. Using BMM culture medium (without amino nitrogen culture medium) instead of BMMY culture medium (with amino nitrogen culture medium), the fermentation and culture conditions of the recombinant strain were optimized, and the optimal conditions for producing channel catfish β-defensin were determined as follows: the expression was induced for 96 h with 1.0% methanol at 28 °C , 250 r/min. Purified protein with molecular weight of 5.98 kDa was obtained by nickel affinity chromatography, and MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry proved that it was the expected recombinant IPBD. The antibacterial test results showed that the inhibitory rates of recombinant IPBD on Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes and Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa were 69.6%, 71.6% and 65.8%, respectively. This study provides a recombinant DNA technique for the development of small molecule natural antibacterial peptide from fish.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the correlation between altered levels of neurotransmitters in the frontal lobe and hippocampus and behavioral abnormalities in a Clock variant mice modeling bipolar disorder manic disorder. METHODS: Open field test and Elevated plus-maze test were carried out on the Clock mutant and wild-type control groups. The frontal lobe and hippocampus of Clock mutant mice and controls were dissected, and neurotransmitters in tissue extracts were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. The concentration of neurotransmitters and behavioral indicators were assessed by t test and Pearson correlation analysis using SPSS 22.0. RESULTS: The Clock mutant mice showed a significant increase in activity, albeit with no difference in the level of anxiety from the wild-type controls, which suggested that the Clock mutant mice can be used as a model for manic attack of bipolar disorder. Altered neurotransmitter levels were detected in the frontal and hippocampal regions, including elevated histamine in the left hippocampus, reduced histamine in the right hippocampus, reduced gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in bilateral hippocampus, elevated dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) in the left frontal lobe and reduced DOPA in the right hippocampus, and decreased glutamine in bilateral frontal lobes. The reduced glutamine in the left frontal lobe and GABA in the right hippocampus correlated with the increased activity of Clock mutant mice. CONCLUSION Clock mutant mice showed abnormal behavior with increased activity. Reduced glutamine in the left frontal lobe and GABA in the right hippocampus were correlated with increased activity.

Objective:To explore the feasibility, safety and early prognosis of laparoscopic choledocholithotomy in patients with previous history of upper abdominal surgery.Methods:From January 2014 to December 2018, the clinical data of 156 patients with previous history of upper abdominal surgery in hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery of Central Hospital of Edong Healthcare Group were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, 84 cases with laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and stone extraction were allocated into laparoscopic group, 72 cases with open common bile duct exploration and stone extraction were allocated into open group.In the laparoscopic group, there were 50 males and 34 females, aged 42-83 (66.4±17.8) years; In the open group, there were 40 males and 32 females, aged 45-82 (64.2±16.9) years. The operation time, intraoperative hemorrhage, first defecation time and postoperative hospital stay were compared between the two groups. The postoperative pain score and the incidence of early complications (bile leakage, abdominal distention, ascites, epigastric pain, residual stones) were compared between the two groups. The measurement data subject to normal distribution are represented by ( Mean± SD), the independent sample t test was used for group comparison, and the chi-square test was used for counting data comparison. Results:The laparoscopic group was converted to open surgery in 3 cases, and there was no perioperative death. In the laparoscopic group, the operation time, the intraoperative bleeding volume, the first defecation time, the postoperative hospital stay wee (122.8 ± 28.1) min, (80.3 ± 13.7) mL, (1.8 ± 0.3) d, (7.7 ± 0.8) d, and (146.6 ± 33.5) min, (125.8 ± 19.6) mL, (2.7 ± 0.6) d, (9.1± 1.2) d in the open group; The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05); On the 2nd and 4th day after operation, the abdominal pain scores in laparoscopic group were (3.6 ± 1.3) scores and (2.3 ± 0.7) scores, and (5.5±1.6) scores, (4.2±1.3) scores in the open group, the laparoscopic group were significantly lower than those in the open group ( P<0.05); The incidence of early postoperative complications in the laparoscopic group was 32.1% (27/84), and in the open group was 47.2% (34/72), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:For patients with a history of upper abdominal surgery, laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and choledochoscopy are safe and feasible, The operation has the advantages of minimally invasive and less bleeding, which can relieve postoperative pain, shorten postoperative hospital stay, and will not increase the incidence of postoperative complications, It′s good for quick recovery. It is suitable for the promotion of grass-roots hospitals.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of different depths of anesthesia on CD4 + T cell function in the patients undergoing radical resection for malignant tumor. Methods:Forty-two American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ patients, aged 36-64 yr, weighing 49-95 kg, undergoing elective radical surgery for malignant tumor, were divided into 2 groups ( n=21 each) using a random number table method: light anesthesia group (L group) and deep anesthesia group (D group). The AAI values were maintained at 30-40 and 20-29 during operation in L group and D group, respectively.The time to eye opening, extubation time and consumption of propofol were recorded.The peripheral venous blood samples were collected immediately before induction of anesthesia (T 0), at 2 h of operation (T 1) and at 4, 24, and 72 h after operation (T 2-4) for determination of serum interferon (IFN)-γ and interleukin-4 (IL-4) concentrations (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), and IFN-γ/IL-4 ratio was calculated. Results:Compared with the baseline value at T 0, the serum IFN-γ concentrations were significantly increased at T 3, 4, the serum IL-4 concentrations were decreased at T 1-4, and IFN-γ /IL-4 ratio was increased in group D ( P<0.05). Compared with group L, the serum IFN-γ concentrations were significantly increased at T 3, 4, the serum IL-4 concentrations were decreased at T 1-4, IFN-γ/IL-4 ratio was increased, the consumption of propofol was increased, and the extubation time was prolonged in group D ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the time to eye opening between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Deep anesthesia can improve CD4 + T cell function in the patients undergoing radical resection for malignant tumor.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of patients with trauma in intensive care unit (ICU), a new warning scoring system is established for predicting the incidence of sepsis in traumatic patients; and to provide a new simple method of clinical score, which could provide a reference for clinical prevention and treatment of sepsis. Methods The clinical data of 591 patients with trauma in the ICU of the Army Specialized Medical Center of Army Medical University and Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University from January 2012 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into sepsis group (n = 382) and non-sepsis group (n = 209) according to their clinical outcome. The basic clinical data of all ICU trauma patients were collected, and the differences in gender, age, underlying diseases, and vital signs, critical illness scores, blood culture results and laboratory biochemical examinations within 24 hours of ICU admission between the two groups were analyzed. Univariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the related factors leading to sepsis. The indexes with P < 0.12 analyzed by univariate Logistic regression analysis were included in multivariate Logistic regression analysis. The risk factors of sepsis in traumatic patients were screened and assigned, and the total score was sepsis early warning score. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to evaluate the predictive value of the warning score of sepsis in patients with trauma. Results The incidence of sepsis in ICU trauma patients was 64.6% (382/591), and the ICU mortality was 10.5% (40/382). The traffic accident was a common cause of ICU trauma patients. Compared with non-sepsis patients, Glasgow coma score (GCS), proportion of past history, red blood cell (RBC), platelet (PLT), albumin (Alb) were lower in patients with sepsis, and body temperature, pulse, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), injury severity score (ISS), new injury severity score (NISS), fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2), blood sodium, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were higher, blood transfusion, central venous catheterization, mechanical ventilation, shock, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), open injury and multiple injuries were more common, the duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU days and total hospital days were longer, and all the differences were statistically significant. Most of the traumatic patients with sepsis were undergone with multiple trauma. Compared with non-sepsis patients, the proportion of multiple position trauma was significantly higher than patients without sepsis. And most traumatic patients were insulted in head, face and neck. The risk factors were screened by univariate and multivariate Logistic stepwise regression analysis, the indexes into the regression model were pulse > 100 bpm [odds ratio (OR) = 1.617, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.992-2.635, P = 0.044], APTT > 36 s (OR = 2.164, 95%CI =1.056-4.435, P = 0.035), shock (OR = 1.798, 95%CI = 1.056-3.059, P = 0.031), mechanical ventilation (OR = 5.144, 95%CI = 2.302-11.498, P < 0.001), APACHEⅡ > 21 (OR = 3.348, 95%CI = 1.724-6.502, P < 0.001), NISS > 25 (OR = 3.332, 95%CI = 1.154-9.624, P = 0.026), assigning scores were 0.5, 1.0, 0.5, 1.5, 1.5, 1.5, respectively, which were included in the new warning score of sepsis. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under ROC curve (AUC) of warning score for predicting sepsis in patients with trauma was 0.782, which was significantly higher than the APACHEⅡ(AUC = 0.672), APTT (AUC = 0.574) and NISS (AUC = 0.515) with significant difference (all P < 0.01). When the cut-off value of sepsis warning score was 4.0, the sensitivity and specificity were 71.7% and 61.9%, respectively. Conclusions Close monitoring and stabilization of vital signs of traumatic patients within 24 hours of ICU admission and reduction of unreasonable invasive mechanical ventilation time are expected to reduce the incidence of sepsis in traumatic patients. New warning score of sepsis consisted of six factors: pulse, APTT, shock, mechanical ventilation, APACHEⅡ and NISS. Rational use of warning score of sepsis would help us to assess the prognosis of traumatic patients more easily and effectively, and the predicted effect is much better than APACHEⅡ, APTT and NISS.
