ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To understand the emotion and sleep state of youths and adolescents who returned to school during the mild period of COVID-19. 【Methods】 A total of 1621 subjects were investigated using the self-made information questionnaire， SAS， SDS and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI）. Nvivo12.0 and SPSS23.0 were used to analyze the data. 【Results】 The subjects reported boredom， worry， nervousness. There were significant differences in sleep quality index in terms of gender， residence status， time of reading news of COVID-19， and time of communicating with parents （P<0.01）. The sleep quality index （4.67±3.12） of college students was lower than the norm （5.8±2.4） （P<0.001）， the SAS score （42.87±9.94） of teenagers was higher than the norm （29.78±10.07） （P<0.001）， and the SDS score （47.64±11.34） of youths and teenagers was higher than the norm （33.46±8.55） （P<0.001）. During this period， PSQI was significantly positively correlated with SAS score and SDS score， and effectively predicted SAS score and SDS score. 【Conclusion】 During the stage of work and school resumption， the emotional state of youths and teenagers was still affected， but presented positive characteristics， with a variety of positive emotions. Compared with the general state， youths and teenagers showed higher depression and anxiety， but sleep quality of college students was better than that in the general state.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investiagte the ability of albumin-indocyanine green (ALICE) score, albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score and Child-Pugh score in predicting postoperative liver failure (PHLF) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, and to determine the clinical value of ALICE score.Methods:The clinical data of 397 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent hepatectomy in the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, Jinhua Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University from June 2015 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including 350 males and 47 females, aged (58.9±11.2) years. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors of PHLF. The predictive ability of ALICE score for PHLF was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and compared with ALBI score and Child-Pugh score.Results:There were 74 patients with PHLF and 323 patients without PHLF. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that Child-Pugh score ( OR=1.630, 95% CI: 1.251-2.486, P=0.034), ALBI score ( OR=1.863, 95% CI: 1.028-3.119, P=0.049) and ALICE score ( OR=1.759, 95% CI: 1.216-3.078, P=0.038) were independent risk factors for PHLF in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, and the risk of PHLF increased with the increase of grade. The area under the ROC curve of ALICE score predicting PHLF in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma was 0.613 (95% CI: 0.564-0.662), the area under the ALBI score was 0.612 (95% CI: 0.563-0.661), and the area under the Child-Pugh score was 0.555 (95% CI: 0.505-0.605). The ALICE score was better than the Child-Pugh score, and the difference was statistically significant ( z=2.04, P=0.041). In small liver resection patients, ALICE score was better than Child-Pugh score ( z=2.61, P=0.009). There was no significant difference betwenn ALICE score and ALBI score ( z=0.06, P=0.954). Conclusion:ALICE score can predict the occurrence of PHLF in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, especially in patients with small liver resection, its value is similar to ALBI score, but better than Child-Pugh score.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the feature of victims transported from Nepal Pokhara's earthquake,and summarized the rescuing experiences got by the Chinese government medical team.Methods A total of 374 casualties from the 2015 Nepal's earthquake magnitude 8.1 transported to the Field Hospital of the Chinese government medical team were classified into four groups according to different causes of injury,and then retrospectively analyzed the types of injury,vital signs,severity of injury and causes of injury.Results Of 374 casualties,the average age was (30.1 ± 12.4) years,and were divided into group A (n =154) in which casualties trapped under ruined buildings,group B (n =123) in which the victims had crushed injury during escaping with their lives,group C (n =58) in which the wounded had injury resulted from fall on the ground during fleeing for their lives and group D (n =39) in which the injury of casualties was caused by fall from high level.Of them,273 patients (296 parts of body injured) suffered from fracture including 34 patients with severe multiple trauma.The average age in the group D (22.3 ±7.4 years old) was significant younger compared with the others (all P ＜ 0.05).The average age in the group C (48.4 ± 13.3 years old) was significant older compared to the others (all P ＜ 0.05).The injury probability was higher for male in the group D (14.2％ vs.7.1％,x2 =5.077,P =0.024) and the injury probability was higher for female in the group C (19.7％ vs 10.8％,x2 =5.635,P =0.018).The incidence of limbs fracture was highest (66.6％) in all 296 parts of body injured.The incidence of skull fracture in the group B (31.6％) was higher compared to the others (all P＜0.05),and the incidence of spinal fracture in the group D (40.0％) was higher compared to the others (all P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the severe multiple trauma incidence between the group A and the group D (16.9％ vs.12.8％,x2 =0.381,P =0.537),but both group A and group D had significant higher incidence of severe multiple trauma compared to the rest two groups (all P ＜ 0.05).The wound debridement was the leading rate of treatment among variety of treatments (57.5％) and the plaster fixation was the second high rate of treatment (30.9％),and the wound infection was found in 25 patients (17.4％) at the first dressing among 144 patients with soft tissue laceration.After active and regular debridement,72％ patients' wound smear tests were negative 3 days later,and 100％ were negative 7 days later.Conclusions The casualties treated by Chinese government medical team had relatively young average age,not very severe critical illness,and quite high rate of wound infection.The treatment of all kinds of fractures and open wound was a matter of critical importance.Although facing the challenge of incomplete set of medical equipment,the lacking of medicine and many other unexpected problems,the Chinese government medical team successfully fulfilled the mission with the prior experience accumulated from several domestic earthquake disaster rescue actions.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate systematically whether administration of hypertonic saline transfusion affects clinical outcomes with compared to standard fluid in the early stage of resuscitation for traumatic shock patients.Methods Seven English and Chinese routine biology and medicine databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published from January 2002 to August 2012,and established inclusion and exclusion criteria to evaluate these RCTs.The quality assessment was based on the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions Version 5.0.1 and Jadad' s score scale.RevMan 5.0 statistical software was used for meta-analysis.Results After evaluated 211 related literatures,five RCTs met all the inclusion criteria and were enrolled for meta-analysis.The meta-a nalysis demonstrated that early hypertonic transfusion did not decrease short-term (first 48 hours after admission) mortality (RR =1.04,P =0.74); nor did it decrease later-term (7day to 3month after injury) mortality (RR =0.97,P =0.72).It also did not decrease the total volume of fluid and blood transfusion required during the first day (P =0.38).Similarly,it did not affect the incidents of infections (RR =1.04,P =0.70),the length of stay in ICU (P =0.2) and total length of stay in the hospital.Conclusions Compared to standard fluid,there was no advantage on mortality and hospital infection by using hypertonic supplement transfusion in the early stage of resuscitation for traumatic shock patients.Hypertonic transfusion did not have any significant effect on the volume of total fluid and blood transfusion required the first day,and no trend of reduction for the length of ICU and hospital stay.Further well-designed randomized controlled trials are needed to demonstrate the cost effectiveness of hypertonic transfusion to traumatic shock patients while in ICU.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo summarize the diagnosis and treatment experience of reoperation treatment on recurrent colorectal carcinoma.To explore the cause,diagnosis,surgical treatment and the prognosis of recurrent colorectal cancer after operation.MethodsTwenty-six cases of postoperative recurrent colorectal carcinoma who were treated at the surgical department in our emergency center from 2000 to 2006 were analyzed retrospectively.Surgical treatment and prognosis were summarized.ResultsRectum carcinoma recurrented in 8 cases after operation,colon carcinoma recurrented in 18 cases after operation.All cases were preoperative treatment,14 cases were treated with radical excision and 12 cases treated with palliative excision.All cases were followed up for 6 to 36 months,the 1-year and 5-year survival rate was 92.6％,47.8％ for radical excision and 53.5％ and 0 for palliative excision.ConclusionFor the cases with recurrent colorectal carcinoma,reoperation treatment is the best treatment protocols to acquire radical cure or palliative therapy purpose according to recurrent location and clinical feature.
ABSTRACT
This study was conducted to observe the effects of intravenously administered 6% hydroxyethylstarch 130/ 0.4 solution and furosemide on the outcome of acute pancreatitis patients. Patients admitted to our center from October 16, 2007 through August 31, 2009 were given intravenous infusions of 6% hydroxyethylstarch 130/0. 4 solution (1 000-2 000 ml administered for an adult) soon after admission. At the same time, furosemide was administered as intravenous bolus, trying to maintain a fluid balance. The dose level of hydroxyethylstarch was gradually lowered from the second day after admission. A total of 135 patients (54% of patients with a Ranson's score > or = 3 and 61% with a Balthazar CT score > or = D) were treated with our protocol. Only 4% and 7% patients developed pancreatic and systemic complications respectively; only 1 patient underwent necrosectomy. The in-hospital mortality rate was 4%. It was estimated that, on the average, 18. 3% of blood volume was lost on admission. Our study suggest that intravenously administered 6% hydroxyethylstarch 130/0. 4 solution and furosemide might be beneficial for patients with acute pancreatitis. Plasma extravasation is a central event of acute pancreatitis. The reversal of hypovolemia is crucial for the success in treatment of acute pancreatitis.

Objective The patient started from St. Louis (U. S.), and reached Chengdu (China) after 3 days of flight(St. Louis- Tokyo- Beijing - Chengdu). The patient felt unwell, so he and the two relatives took a taxi to the Emergency Center of Sichuan Provincial People' s Hospital for treatment. The epidemiological survey showed that, the patient had been living in the University of Missouri in the United States, no pigs died locally, there were no markets for the living pigs, farmers markets, farms, and slaughterhouses, and he hadn't contact with pigs. But 4 days before the onset, he closely contacted with a schoolmate, who had cold symptoms. The pa-tient had never been to virus laboratory 7 days before the onset. Clinical examinations showed that, the patient had a fever (37.8 ～ 38.8℃), WBC 7.9×10-9 L-1, N 5.475 × 10-9 L-1, L 19.5% ;the chest X-ray shewed that texture increased and the heart shadow augmented on both lungs; the result of throat swab culture was negative. The result of virus nucleic aeid detected by Sichnan Provincial Center for Disease Control showed H1N1 influenza virus, suspected. Sichuan Province Health organization organized experts on the prevention and control of H1N1 influenza for consultation, and the patient was diagnosed as the first suspected H1N1 influenza case in mainland China based on the epidemiological investigation, symptoms and signs of the patient, the results of laboratory ex-amination, and the result of virus test. Confirmed by the experts from Chinese center for disease control and pre-vention and The Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China, the patient was diagnosed as the first H1N1 influenza case in mainland China.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the risk factors and treatment of crush syndrome comlicated in earth-quake injury. Method The demographics and epidemiological characteristics, clinical treatment and the outcome of 35 cases with crush syndrome were reviewed and analyzed.The 35 patients were among 325 victims of "5·12" Wenchuan earthquake, who were admitted in Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital, Chengdu. Results Of 35 pa-tients with crush syndrome, 7 cases injured at forearm, 25 cases injured at cruse, and 3 cases injured at palm,and 3 cases were complicated with acute renal failure. The time from the occurrence of injury to transporting patients into the hospital was 6～92 hours, with mean time 49.3 hours. All the 35 patients had their wound cut open for de-compression,and 6 cases were cured, 2 had dysfunction, and 27 underwent amputation. Young patients under 14 years old had higher rate (25.8%) of crush syndrome than elder patients of 14～59 years old with rate of 8.0%.And patients admitted into hospital later (over 48 hour after injury) had higher incidence of crush syndrome (31.0 %) than those admitted earlier within 48 hours after injury (3.5 %). Conchusions Attaching great impor-tance to crush syndrome after earthquake injury, early diagnosis and treatment, and timely and complete surgical decompression are key points to the successful treatment and prevention of crush syndrome complicated in earth-quake injury. Because the longer interval between injury and rescue, delayed diagnosis and treatment, and the younger age of patients are all the risk factors of crush syndrome.
