ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the nutritional support of hospitalized patients with advanced lung cancer in Shanghai. Methods From July 2018 to May 2020, hospitalized patients with advanced lung cancer in our hospital were selected. Patients were assessed using general situation questionnaire and patient subjective evaluation scale. The experimental indicators of patients were detected, the nutritional support was analyzed, and the risk factors of nutritional status of patients with lung cancer were analyzed. Results Among the 106 patients, 75 were male and 31 were female, 74 were under 64 years old and 32 were over 65 years old; PG-SGA results revealed that 37 cases (34.91%) scored 0~1, 48 cases (45.28%) scored 2-8, and 21 cases (19.81%) scored equal to or above 9; According to PG-SGA classification, patients were divided into good nutrition group (n=37) and malnutrition group (n=69). The proportion of patients of ≤64-year-old, TNM stage IV, WBC and neutrophil count in good nutrition group was lower than that of malnutrition group (P<0.05), meanwhile, the KPS, body mass index, red blood cell count, lymphocyte count, hemoglobin, serum protein, albumin, immunoglobulin IgG, IgM, IgA, CD4 +, CD3 +, and CD8 + were higher than those of malnutrition group (P<0.05). Logistic analysis showed that age ≥ 64 years old, TNM stage IV, KPS and BMI were risk factors of nutritional status (P<0.05). Conclusion Among the patients with advanced lung cancer in Shanghai, the incidence of malnutrition is 65.09%, and 19.81% of those with severe malnutrition are in urgent need of nutritional support. Logistic analysis results yield that age over 64 years old, TNM stage Ⅳ, KPS, body mass index are risk factors affecting nutritional status of patients.
ABSTRACT
Preeclampsia (PE) is a serious disease that threatens the health of maternal and newborn. However, the etiology and pathogenesis of PE remains elusive. Micro-RNA, a class of noncoding small single stranded RNA, plays an important role in the physiologic and pathophysiologic process of PE. In recent years, some researchers classified the placenta-derived miRNAs and investigated their roles in the occurrence of PE and their potential value in the PE early diagnosis. These findings are summarized in the review.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of cementless total hip arthroplasty (THA) in treatment of avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Methods: The clinical data of 22 patients (35 hips) with HIV infection and ANFH (positive group), who were treated with cementless THA between February 2014 and January 2017, was retrospectively analyzed. Tirty-three cases (43 hips) without HIV infection, who were treated with cementless THA during the same period, were collected as control (negative group). There were significant differences in the age, gender, incidence of bilateral ANFH, and disease duration between 2 groups ( P0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, rate of blood transfusion, postoperative complications, and hospitalization time were recorded. The hip joint function was evaluated by Harris score and X-ray film was performed to observe the position of the prosthesis. Results: The follow-up time was 13-24 months (mean, 20.2 months) in positive group and 14-25 months (mean, 21.6 months) in negative group. The operation time of negative group was significantly shorter than that of positive group ( t=3.677, P=0.001). However, there was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss, rate of blood transfusion, and hospitalization time between 2 groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in Harris score between 2 groups before operation and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after operation ( P>0.05). There were 2 cases of superficial infection of incision and 1 case of pulmonary infection during hospitalization in positive group, and 1 case of superficial infection of incision and 1 case of venous thrombosis of lower extremity in negative group. No death or loosening and sinking of the prosthesis occurred in both groups during follow-up. Conclusion: Cementless THA is a safe and effective method for ANFH in patients with HIV infection.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the contents determination of gallic acid,naringin,hesperidin,neohesperi-din and baicalin in Qinghou liyan granule. METHODS:UPLC was performed on the column of ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18 with mobile phase of acetonitrile- 0.1% phosphoric acid(gradient elution)at a flow rate of 0.40 ml/min,detection wavelength was 280 nm,column temperature was 30 ℃,and injection volume was 1 μl. RESULTS:The linear range was 0.048-0.480 μg for gallic ac-id(r=0.999 3),0.012-0.120 μg for naringin(r=0.999 9),0.016-0.160 μg for hesperidin(r=0.999 8),0.022-0.220 μg for neo-hesperidin(r=0.999 9)and 0.072-0.720 μg for baicalin(r=0.999 2);limit of quantitation was 2.4,1.6,1.8,1.8,1.6 ng,limit of detection was 7.5,5.0,5.6,5.6,5.0 ng;RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were no lower than 3.0%;recover-ies were 96.64%-102.02%(RSD=2.00%,n=6),95.86%-102.56%(RSD=2.86%,n=6),97.24%-102.54%(RSD=2.10%,n=6),97.44%-102.60%(RSD=2.40%,n=6)and 96.91%-103.13%(RSD=2.62%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is rapid and accurate,and can be used for the simultaneous determination of gallic acid,naringin,hesperidin,neohesperidin and baicalin in Qinghou liyan granule.
ABSTRACT
Object To study the microwave assisted procedure for the extraction of baicalin from root of Scutellariae baicalensis Georgi Methods An MSP 100D domestically made microwave sample preparation system with a maximum power of 850 watts was used. The effects of solvents, pressure/temperature of solvents and microwave radiation time on the yield of baicalin were studied by orthogonal experimental design. Results The optimal experimental conditions were extraction at 70% of microwave power with 30 times of 35% ethanol at a constant heating pressure/temperature of 0.15 MPa for 30 s. Conclusion The microwave assisted extraction not only takes a shorter time with better parallel results, but also gave an increased yield of about 10% as compared with ultrasonic extraction.
