Objective To investigate the effect of laser engraving personalized nasal patch applied to patients with nasal catheter indentation.Methods A total of 124 patients who underwent esophageal cancer surgery in the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from February 2022 to February 2023 and required indwelling nasal catheter were selected as study objects,and were divided into experimental group and control group according to random number table method,with 62 cases in each group.The control group used conventionally cut nasal patches to fix the nasal catheters,and the experimental group used laser engraved personalized nasal patches.Catheter displacement or slippage under the fixation device,nasal patch rolled edges and number of replacement,nasal medical device-related pressure injury,medical adhesive-related skin lesions and patients'comfort were observed in two groups.Results The rate of catheter displacement,number of rolled edges of nasal patches and numbers of replacement in experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05).The incidence of nasal mucosal indentation,nasal pain,nasal pressure injury and medical adhesive related skin lesions in experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05).The comfort of patients at the physiological level of experimental group was significantly better than that of control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Laser engraved personalized nasal patches can reduce the frequency of clinical nasal catheter displacement,nasal patch rolled edges and number of replacement,reduce the occurrence of nasal medical device related pressure injuries and medical adhesive-related skin lesions,and increase patients'comfort.

OBJECTIVE To explore the impact and mechanism of curcumin on endometriosis （EMS） model rats based on Notch1 signaling pathway. METHODS Female SD rats with synchronized estrous cycles were implanted with autologous endometrium on the abdominal wall to construct EMS model. EMS rats were randomly divided into model group， low-， medium- and high-dose groups of curcumin （60， 120， 240 mg/kg）， and Notch 1 inhibitor DAPT group （7 mg/kg）. The sham surgery group was also established， with 10 rats in each group. Rats in each group received intragastric administration or injection via caudal veins with the corresponding drugs for 4 weeks. Endometriotic lesions were observed and measured using ultrasound and visual inspection， and their volumes were calculated. Histopathological morphology of the lesion tissues was observed. The levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， IL-6， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in the abdominal cavity fluid， as well as the mRNA and protein expression levels of Notch1， matrix metalloproteinase-9 （MMP-9）， and vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） in the endometriotic lesions were measured. RESULTS Compared with the model group， the volume of endometriotic lesions in the low- ， medium- and high-dose groups of curcumin and the DAPT group was significantly decreased （P＜0.05）； atrophy or disappearance of columnar epithelium， cyst disappearance； the levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF- α （except for the low-dose curcumin group） in the abdominal cavity fluid， as well as the mRNA （except for MMP-9 and VEGF in the low-dose curcumin group） and protein （except for MMP-9 in the low-dose curcumin group） expression levels of Notch1， MMP-9， and VEGF in the endometriotic lesions were significantly decreased （P＜0.05）. The curcumin high-dose group and DAPT group showed superior results in most indicators compared to the curcumin low- and medium-dose groups. CONCLUSIONS Curcumin has an improving effect on EMS， and its mechanism may be related to inhibiting Notch1 signaling pathway， reducting local inflammatory responses， and inhibiting ectopic endometrial invasion and angiogenesis.

Objective To investigate the repairing effect and mechanism of Chinese patent medicine Weiyangning pill on gastric mucosal injury in rats induced by anhydrous ethanol,and to establish a high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)method to determine the five main components of Weiyangning pill.Methods The five components of paeoniflorin,psoralen,atractylenolide Ⅲ,liquiritin and hesperidin in Weiyangning pill were detected by HPLC.SD male rats were randomly divided into normal control group,model control group,Weinaian group,and large and small dose group of Weiyangning pill.All rats were fasted for 24 hours without water fasting.The normal control group and the model control group were given purified water by gavage.While Weinaian group was given Weinaian(3 g·kg-1),the test group were given intragastric perfusion of Weiyangning(3,1.5 g·kg-1)respectively.After 2 hours,all the rats,except the normal control group,were intragastrically administered with anhydrous ethanol(5 mL·kg-1)to establish the model of gastric mucosal injury.An hour later,the experimental materials were collected,and the gross score of gastric mucosal injury was observed and calculated.The gastric mucosal slices were stained by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)to calculate the pathological scores.Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of gastric mucosa-related proteins.Results The high-performance liquid chromatogram of Weiyangning pill was obtained,and the absorption peaks with the same retention time as the five standard substances(paeoniflorin,psoralen,atractylenolide Ⅲ,liquiritin and hesperidin)were observed.The general score and pathological score of gastric mucosal injury in Weiyangning groups(3,1.5 g·kg-1)were lower than those of the model control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Weiyangning pill(3,1.5 g·kg-1)ameliorated the decrease expression of tight junction protein(Claudin-7),adhesion junction proteins(E-cadherin and β-catenin),mucins(MUC1 and MUC5AC),and the gastric transcription factor SOX2 in the gastric mucosa of the rats modeled in anhydrous ethanol(P<0.05 or P<0.01 compared with the model control group).Conclusion The repairing effect of Weiyangning pill on gastric mucosal injury induced by anhydrous ethanol in rats is related to the increase of the expression of tight junction protein,adhesion junction protein,mucin and gastric transcription factor.

Objective To observe the correlations of subchondral insufficiency fracture(SIF)of medial femoral condyle with medial meniscus injury pattern and medial meniscus extrusion(MME).Methods Data of 36 patients with clinically confirmed unilateral medial femoral condyle SIF were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into low-grade and high-grade groups according to SIF grade.Cartilage injury,medial meniscus injury and MME were compared between groups,and the correlations of SIF grade with cartilage injury,osteonecrosis volume(OV)and MME were analyzed.Cartilage injury grade,OV and MME were compared between groups,and the correlations were explored.Results There were 18 cases in each group.The percentage of cartilage injury grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ,OV and MME value(the distance between the vertical line of medial meniscus and the vertical line of tibial plateau cartilage)in high-grade group were greater than those in low-grade group(all P＜0.05).Significant difference of injury grades of meniscus posterior horn was found between groups(P=0.007).SIF grade was positively correlated with cartilage injury grade,OV and MME value(rs=0.710,0.765,0.540,all P≤0.01).MME value was positively correlated with meniscal injury degree and tear range(rs=0.502,0.520,both P＜0.01).There were 4,19 and 13 cases with 0,1 and 2 grade MME,respectively,and significant differences of cartilage injury grades,OV and MME values were found among different MME grades(all P＜0.05).MME value was positively correlated with cartilage injury grade and OV(rs=0.451,0.579,both P＜0.01).Conclusion In SIF patients,OV and cartilage injury were both correlated with medial meniscus injury pattern and MME.

Anti-seizure medications (ASMs) are the main therapy for epilepsy.There are many kinds of ASMs with complex mechanism of action, so it is difficult for pharmacists to examine prescriptions.This paper put forward some suggestions on the indications, dosage forms/routes of administration, appropriateness of usage and dosage, combined medication and drug interaction, long-term prescription review, individual differences in pathophysiology of children, and drug selection when complicated with common epilepsy, for the reference of doctors and pharmacists.

With the improvement of critical care medical technology, more critically ill children are transferred from Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) to General Ward, and the transition period of PICU has become a hot spot of clinical research. Paying attention to the relocation stress of parents of children in transition period of PICU is also the focus of clinical nursing practice in critically ill pediatrics. However, the relocation stress of parents of children has adverse effects on their own health and the rehabilitation process of children. This paper reviews the concept, assessment tools, influencing factors and intervention measures of parents of transitional children in the PICU transition period and puts forward the limitations and suggestions of the current research on transitional pressure in parents of children in the PICU transition period, so as to provide references for relocation stress nursing service for parents of children in transition period in PICU.

Among coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients who infected with 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), compared with the symptomatic infection patients, 2019-nCoV carried by asymptomatic infection patients are more likely to be widely spread due to secrecy and neglect, thus brings severe challenges to the current prevention and treatment of COVID-19. The therapies of asymptomatic 2019-nCoV infection are still in research. Through excavating the Chinese medical classics, it was found that the theory of "pathogen hiding in the pleurodiaphragmatic interspace", with its unique syndrome differentiation system and curative effect of treating symptoms and causes, can provide clinical reference for the treatment of asymptomatic 2019-nCoV infections and provide theoretical basis traditional Chinese medicine in the battle against infectious diseases.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic and clinical characteristics of near-tetraploidy/tetraploidy karyotype (NT/T) in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). METHODS: Cytogenetic findings of 1576 inpatients with primary MDS were retrospective analyzed, among which 9 were diagnosed with NT/T. Clinical data including gender, age, morphology, genetic feature and prognosis were analyzed. RESULTS: The prevalence of MDS patients with NT/T (NT/T-MDS) among all cases was 0.57%. Karyotyping analysis suggested that eight MDS patients had sole NT/T, while the remainder one had a complex karyotype. In addition to the typical morphology of MDS, NT/T-MDS had unique morphology including huge blast, double-nuclear cell and irregular nuclear membrane. One NT/T-MDS patient gave up therapy, and the remaining eight underwent the first course of treatment, albeit with poor prognosis. Only one patient had complete remission, one had partial remission, three had no remission; and three had converted to acute myeloid leukemia. CONCLUSION NT/T-MDS is rare and has unique morphology. Generally, NT/T-MDS patients have poor prognosis. However, NT/T cannot be simply classified as high-risk group, but with consideration whether they have affected particular chromosomal structures as well as other clinical data.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of dysplasia in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) in China.Methods:From March 1st, 2012 to December 30th, 2013, a total of 154 UC patients were prospectively enrolled from the following 11 hospitals, Xijing Hospital of Digestive Diseases, Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Renji Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Nanfang Hospital affiliated to Southern Medical University, China-Japan Friendship Hospital, The Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University, West China Hospital affiliated to Sichuan University, The Seventh Medical Center of PLA General Hospital, Zhongshan Hospital affiliated to Xiamen University, and the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. The patients were followed up till December 1st, 2017. All the UC patients underwent colon endoscopy and histopathological evaluation. T test and Chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Cox proportional risk model was used for identifying the risk factors of dysplasia in UC patients. Results:Finally, 133 UC patients were enrolled, the age was (50.0±11.9) years, the diagnosis age was (35.5±11.6) years, the course of disease was (14.5±6.7) years, and the number of endoscopic examinations was (3.4±1.6) times. A total of 21 patients were detected with dysplasia. No patients were detected with colorectal cancer. The results of univariate analysis revealed that the diagnosis age (hazard ratio ( HR)=1.05, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 1.01 to 1.10, P=0.009) and extensive colitis ( HR=2.92, 95% CI 0.97 to 8.79, P=0.057) were factors with statistically significant difference. The results of multivariate analysis revealed that the old age at diagnosis ( HR=1.06, 95% CI 1.02 to 1.11, P=0.003) and extensive colitis ( HR=3.68, 95% CI 1.21 to 11.19, P=0.022) were independent risk factors of dysplasia in UC patients. The cumulative incidence of dysplasia of UC patients with extensive colitis was higher than that of patients with left-sided colitis (24.3%, 17/70 vs. 6.3%, 4/63), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=8.023, P=0.005). Conclusions:Extensive colitis and older age at diagnosis are two independent risk factors of dysplasia in UC patients of our country. The cancer monitoring should be strengthened in UC patients with long course of disease and extensive colitis.

Objective: To investigate the interference factors causing false-positive result of novel coronavirus IgM antibody (SARS-CoV-2 IgM) detected by gold immunochromatography assay (GICA) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Methods: A total of 71 serum from different pathogen infections and related chronic diseases patients were collected from the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from January 25, 2020 to February 15, 2020. GICA and ELISA were used to detect 2019-nCoV IgM in 71 serum, including 5 influenza A virus (Flu A) IgM positive serum, 5 influenza B virus (Flu B) IgM positive serum, 5 Mycoplasma pneumonia (MP) IgM positive serum, 5 Legionella pneumophila (LP) IgM positive serum, 29 rheumatoid factor (RF) IgM positive serum, 5 hypertension patients serum, 5 diabetes mellitus patients serum, 6 human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection patients serum and 6 Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients serum. The interference factors causing false positive results of the two methods were analyzed, and urea dissociation test was employed to dissociate the 2019-nCoV IgM positive serum using the best dissociation concentration. Statistical analyses were performed by SPSS, version 19.0. Result: s 2019-nCoV IgM was positive in 18 cases of middle-high level RF-IgM positive serum and 6 cases of 2019-nCoV-infected serum detected by two methods, and the other 47 serum were negative. When the dissociation concentration of urea was 6 mol/L, 2019-nCoV IgM was negative in 17 cases of middle-high level RF-IgM positive serum and positive in 6 cases of 2019-nCoV-infected serum detected by GICA. When the urea dissociation concentration was 4 mol/L, dissociation time was 10 min and the avidity index<0.46 was set as negative, 2019-nCoV IgM was negative in 15 cases of middle-high level RF-IgM positive serum and positive in 6 cases of 2019-nCoV-infected serum detected by ELISA. Conclusion The middle-high level of RF-IgM could cause false positive results of SARS-CoV-2 IgM detected by GICA and ELISA, and the urea dissociation test would be helpful for reducing the probability of false-positive results of SARS-CoV-2 IgM test.
