ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of drug-coated balloon (DCB) in the treatment of symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.Methods:Forty-nine patients with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis treated with DCB in the People′s Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to August 2021 were retrospectively included. The location and number of lesions were as follows: 21 cases of the middle cerebral artery, 11 cases of the intracranial segment of vertebral artery, 12 cases of the basilar artery, and 5 cases of the intracranial segment of internal carotid artery. Pre-dilatation of the lesion with a normal balloon followed by DCB angioplasty. Clinical follow-up (outpatient or telephone) was carried out at 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after the operation. Imaging follow-up was carried out at 6 months postoperatively. The surgical success rate (defined as the proportion of patients with residual stenosis<50% after balloon dilatation), perioperative safety (any strokes, TIA, and deaths within 1 month), stroke recurrence, and restenosis were analyzed.Results:The operation was performed in all patients successfully. The median stenosis level was 80% (75%, 85%) preoperatively and 20% (15%, 30%) at the time after the operation. The success rate of the operation was 91.8% (45/49). Stenting was given in 11 cases (22.4%, 11/49) for severe flow-limiting vascular entrapment, or non-flow-limiting entrapment, owing to the concern of subsequent progression of the entrapment. Three cases (6.1%, 3/49) had significant vascular elastic retraction and implement stent implantation. One patient (2.0%, 1/49) developed symptomatic cerebral infarction during perioperative period, and the symptoms improved after treatment. No fatal or disabling stroke occurred. All patients were followed-up successfully. The median follow-up time was 12 months. Two patients (4.1%, 2/49) had a stroke in the responsible vascular area, and 1 (2.0%, 1/49) patient had a stroke in the non-responsible vascular area. Thirty-eight patients (77.6%, 38/49) had followed-up images. The median follow-up time of postoperative imaging was 6 months. Restenosis occurred in two cases (1 case had symptomatic restenosis), and the incidence of restenosis was 5.3% (2/38).Conclusions:DCB in the treatment of symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis has a high technical success rate, good perioperative safety, and low stroke recurrence rate in short-term follow-up, demonstrating the good feasibility, safety, and efficacy of DCB.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of body composition, dietary intake and vitamin D status of school-age wasting children, and to provide evidence for individual dietary intervention and nutrient supplement.Methods:From September to December 2019, we chose wasting children aged 6-10 years old in the nutrition clinic of Beijing Children's Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, and a retrospective case-control study was adopted. To detect body composition and vitamin D level, and conduct dietary survey and assessment. The measurement data of normal distribution were compared by independent sample t-test. The relationship between the two variables was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. Rank sum test was used to compare rank data.Results:A total of 60 subjects were studied, including 30 boys and 30 girls. The percentage of inorganic salt in boys (6.81±0.37)% is higher than that in girls (6.37±0.59)%, the difference was statistically significant ( t=7.75, P=0.009). Compared with the target values of normal children of the same age and gender, the contents of fat in boys ((2.39±1.25) kg and (4.20±0.95) kg, t=43.05, P<0.001), in girls ((2.66±1.20) kg and (4.91±1.41) kg, t=59.87, P<0.001); muscle in boys ((17.35±3.23) kg and (21.57±4.94) kg, t=16.89, P<0.001), in girls ((17.69±3.03) kg and (21.79±4.36) kg, t=20.97, P<0.001); total water in boys ((13.54±2.52) kg and (16.80±3.86) kg, t=16.51, P<0.001), in girls ((13.82±2.36) kg and (16.96±3.40) kg, t=20.20, P<0.001); protein in boys ((3.58±0.67) kg and (4.51±1.04) kg, t=18.68, P<0.001), in girls ((3.65±0.63) kg and (4.55±0.92) kg, t=24.55, P<0.001); inorganic salt in boys ((1.42±0.25) kg and (1.56±0.36) kg, t=4.28, P=0.036), in girls ((1.37±0.27) kg and (1.56±0.30) kg, t=8.24, P=0.006) were all significantly reduced. The total energy intake of all the children were lower than the recommended intake for children of the same age and gender. Among them, 70.00%(42/60) of children had insufficient energy intake for breakfast, 50.00% (30/60) for lunch and 40.00%(24/60) for dinner. In terms of energy intake of three macronutrients, 53.33%(32/60) of children were deficient in carbohydrate, 50.00%(30/60) in protein and 58.33%(35/60) in fat. The mean content of 25-hydroxyvitamin D was (46.95±14.53) nmol/L in male and (46.41±14.51) nmol/L in female, all of them had Vitamin Dinsufficiency. Conclusion:Wasting children should be tested for body composition and vitamin D levels, to get individualized dietary instruction and nutrient supplementation, and improve nutritional status.

ABSTRACT

The teaching of orthognathic surgery is difficult because it is complex and emphasizes the combination of theory and practice. The traditional teaching method focuses on theoretical teaching, but due to the limitation of conditions, it is difficult for students to master the operation. In this paper, we apply the digital three-dimensional surgical simulation system combined with 3D printing in specialist training of orthognathic surgery. Digital software and 3D printing are applied in the theoretical teaching, surgical operation, summary and reflection to combine practical teaching with theoretical teaching, so as to stimulate the subjective initiative of the students. The results showed that the teaching evaluation of the experimental group [(3.89±0.84) points] was better than that of the control group [(2.91±1.21) points]. The application of digital three-dimensional surgical simulation system combined with 3D printing has achieved satisfactory results.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the values of medical image technologies in evaluating the tansperineal laser ablation (TPLA) in canine prostate.Methods:TPLA (3 W/600 J and 3 W/1 200 J) were operated in the prostate of six adult male beagles guided by transrectal ultrasound (TRUS). TRUS, transrectal contrast-enhanced ultrasound (TR-CEUS) and multiparameter magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) were used to evaluate the ablation on the day of TPLA, one week and one month after TPLA. The animals were sacrificed for pathology to calculate the volume of the ablation. SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:TRUS could be used to guide and observe the puncture and ablation process during TPLA. TR-CEUS and contrast enhanced MRI showed good consistency in the volume of ablation ( P>0.05). One month after TPLA, the ablation volume were (1.69±0.51)ml vs (1.73±0.36)ml vs (1.52±0.41)ml (3 W/600 J) and (2.23±0.54)ml vs (2.34±0.29)ml vs (2.19±0.34)ml (3 W/1 200 J) measured by the two medical image technologies and pathology, with good consistency ( P>0.05). Conclusions:TRUS can be used to guide and observe the puncture and ablation process during TPLA. TR-CEUS and mpMRI can be used for postoperative evaluation and follow-up of TPLA. The former has advantages of real-time and low price, which can be promoted and applied in clinical practice.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the nutritional status of children with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) during induction chemotherapy, and to understand the incidence of malnutrition, so as to give nutrition intervention in time. Methods From January 2017 to December 2018,257 children with NHL were selected from the Center for Hematological Oncology,Peking Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University. Nutritional status and growth risk screening tools were used to assess the nutritional risk of the children,and the malnutrition was classified according to the height and body weight. The body mass,height and other anthropometric indexes, hemoglobin, prealbumin, albumin and other laboratory indexes were measured at the end of initial diagnosis and induction chemotherapy. Results There were 223 cases of moderate nutritional risk ( 86. 8%) and 34 cases of high nutritional risk ( 13. 2%) . After treatment, the nutritional status of the children decreased: 13 cases of mild malnutrition,1 case of moderate malnutrition,4 cases of overweight and 3 cases of obesity before treatment; 32 cases of mild malnutrition, 9 cases of moderate malnutrition,5 cases of severe malnutrition, 3 cases of overweight and 2 cases of obesity after treatment. Ninety-six patients received nutritional support ( 37. 4%), including 15 cases of parenteral nutrition and 81 cases of enteral nutrition. The body weight (( 29. 50 ± 15. 13 ) kg before and after chemotherapy (27. 60±14. 30) kg) and body mass index ((17. 2±3. 28) kg/m2 before and (16. 1±3. 13) kg/m2 after chemotherapy) decreased significantly (t=12. 404,13. 949,all P<0. 01) . Laboratory indicators except prealbumin were lower in hemoglobin (( 109. 00 ± 15. 78) g/L),albumin (( 37. 40 ± 4. 38) g/L), total lymphocyte ((1. 58 ± 1. 26)×109/L) than before treatment ( hemoglobin ( 117. 90 ± 21. 06) g/L), (albumin (39. 60±6. 70) g/L),(total lymphocyte (2. 98±2. 87)×109/L)) (t=6. 514,4. 834,7. 420,all P<0. 01). Conclusion There is a high incidence of malnutrition in NHL children after initial treatment. Early screening of nutritional risk and optimizing nutritional treatment are one of the ways to improve the clinical efficacy of NHL children.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of occupational diseases in Gansu Province, China in 2010-2017, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of occupational diseases.@*Methods@#The cluster sampling method was adopted to make statistical analysis of 1339 cases of occupational disease reported by "occupational disease and occupational health information monitoring system" in Gansu province from 2010 to 2017, to investigate the diseases, regions and industries of occupational diseases in June 2018.@*Results@#A total of 1339 cases of occupational diseases (39 types, 8 classes) were diagnosed and reposed in 2010-2017. The three most frequent diseases were pneumoconiosis (87.53%, 1172/1339), occupational poisonings (5.83%, 78/1339), and occupational ear, nose, and throat (ENT) diseases (3.14%, 42/1339). The cases of silicosis accounted for 54.61% (640/1172) of all cases of pneumoconiosis, the second was coalworker pneumoconiosis, which accounted for 38.57% (452/1172). In the cases of occupational poisonings, 32.05% (25/78) suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning. Patients with occupational diseases were reported in 14 districts of Gansu, mostly in Lanzhou (27.52%, 347/1261), Jinchang (16.57%, 209/1261), and Baiyin (14.20%, 179/1261). The reported cases are mainly concentrated in mining (71.56%, 468/654) and manufacturing (21.87%, 143/654), the types of state-owned economy (55.63%, 692/1244) and private economy (33.68%, 419/1244), large (43.41%, 540/1244) and small enterprises (35.21%, 438/1244) in 2010-2017 in Gansu.@*Conclusion@#The pneumoconiosis caused by silicious and coal dust and the occupational poisonings caused by carbon monoxide seem to be the main occupational hazards in Gansu province. Occupational diseases occur in all districts of Guangzhou and in various industries. The state-owned economy and private sector, large and small enterprises should be the focuses of occupational health supervision.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the features of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) with hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) as the initial manifestation at diagnosis. Methods The morbidity and treatment of two B-cell NHL patients with HPS as the initial manifestation were retrospectively analyzed, and the literature were reviewed at home and abroad. Results Two B-cell NHL patients with HPS were treated with the HLH-94 protocol to control febrile condition. After then, R-CHOP protocol (dexamethasone substituted for prednisone) was used and their results were good. In reviewing the literature, it was felt that the main sub-type of B-cell lymphoma-associated HPS (B-LAHPS) was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. However, sub-types of T-cell lymphoma-associated HPS (T-LAHPS) had no significant difference. The incidence of T-LAHPS was significantly higher than that of B-LAHPS in China and South Korea, but there was no significant difference in the Western countries. T-cell lymphomas were more vulnerable to HPS. The median age of B-LAHPS patients at diagnosis was significantly higher than that of T-LAHPS patients. The median survival and overall survival time of B-LAHPS patients were longer than those of T-LAHPS patients by virtue of the application of rituximab. Conclusion B-cell NHL with HPS as the initial manifestation treated with the 2004-HLH plus R-CHOP protocol could achieve good outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Dachaihu decoction in treatment of stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) in the elderly patients with excess-heat syndrome and acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods One hundred elderly patients with excess-heat syndrome and SAP admitted to the Department of Neurology of Tianjin Nankai Hospital from August 2015 to September 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into a control group and an observation group according to the random number table, 50 cases in each group. Both groups were given conventional neurological treatment, while the observation group additionally received Dachaihu decoction (the ingredients of the decoction: bupleurum 15 g, scutellariae 10 g, pinellia 10 g, fructus aurantii immaturus 15 g, radix paeoniae alba 10 g, rhubarb 5 g, ginger 10 g, jujube 2), and according to the individual's symptoms and signs, the above ingredients can be added and/or subtracted, 1 dose per day, divided into two parts, 1 part taken in the morning and 1 part in the evening orally, 14 days as a therapeutic course. The body temperature recovery time, the duration of antibiotic treatment, the changes of Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score (CPIS) and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score before and after treatment of the two groups were observed and the therapeutic effects in the two groups were evaluated. Results The body temperature recovery time (days: 6.56±2.70 vs. 8.08±3.23) and the duration of antibiotic treatment (days: 8.78±2.80 vs. 10.02±2.90) in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group (both P < 0.05); with the prolongation of treatment, after treatment, the CPIS and NIHSS score were decreased significantly in both groups, reaching the lowest levels on the 14th day, and the degrees of score descent in observation group were more significant than those of the control group (CPIS score: 0.68±0.59 vs. 1.12±0.96, NIHSS score: 6.38±2.31 vs. 7.44±2.74, both P < 0.05); the total effective rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [92% (46/50) vs. 76% (38/50), P < 0.05]. Conclusion The therapeutic effect of Dachaihu decoction used for treatment of SAP in elderly patients with excess-heat syndrome is favorably effective and safe.

ABSTRACT

Objective To assess the diagnostic value of left ventricular angiography in patients with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.Methods A total of 32 consecutively recruited patients aged from 61 to 78 with suspected apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy from inconclusive apex imaging on conventional echocardiography from June 2016 to December 2017 underwent left ventricular opacification.A diagnosis of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was made when the thickness of hypertrophied area of the apex was > 1.5 cm,the ratio of the hypertrophied area to the non-hypertrophied area was > 1.3,and no hypertrophy was found elsewhere.Results Twenty-four out of 32 patients (75.0%) were diagnosed with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy,all of whom had pure apical hypertrophy.The other 8 patients were excluded,with normal thickness in the apex.Patients with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy had apical wall thicknesses ranging from 15 mm to 21 mm,reduced myocardial motion amplitude in the apex and uneven echo at certain areas of the ventricular wall.All cases showed clear images of the apex with left ventricular opacification,and the apex of the heart lost its normal morphology and showed a pointed end,with ventricular cavity obliteration or uneven wall thickness in the apex.Conclusions Left heart ventricular angiography can be complimentary to conventional echocardiography in the diagnosis of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy by providing a clearer endocardial contour and more accurate estimates of apical wall thickness and therefore enhancing the diagnostic value of ultrasound for apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: Immune suppression is common in patients with advanced breast cancer but the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon have not been sufficiently studied. In this study, we aimed to identify B7 family members that were able to predict the immune status of patients, and which may serve as potential targets for the treatment of breast cancer. We also aimed to identify microRNAs that may regulate the expression of B7 family members. METHODS: The Cancer Genome Atlas data from 1,092 patients with breast cancer, including gene expression, microRNA expression and survival data, were used for statistical and survival analyses. Polymerase chain reaction and Western blot were used to measure messenger RNA and protein expression, respectively. Luciferase assay was used to investigate direct microRNA target. RESULTS: Bioinformatic analysis predicted that microRNA (miR)-93, miR-195, miR-497, and miR-340 are potential regulators of the immune evasion of breast cancer cells, and that they exert this function by targeting CD274, PDCD1LG2, and NCR3LG1. We chose CD274 for further investigations. We found that miR-195, miR-497, and CD274 expression levels were inversely correlated in MDA-MB-231 cells, and miR-195 and miR-497 expressions mimic inhibited CD274 expression in vitro. Mechanistic investigations demonstrated that miR-195 and miR-497 directly target CD274 3′ untranslated region. CONCLUSION: Our data indicated that the level of B7 family members can predict the prognosis of breast cancer patients, and miR-195/miR-497 regulate CD274 expression in triple negative breast cancer. This regulation may further influence tumor progression and the immune tolerance mechanism in breast cancer and may be able to predict the effect of immunotherapy on patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analysis the family management of patients with serious mental illness in Gansu prov-ince, and evaluate its effectiveness to lay the foundation for the better community-based rehabilitation management and treatment for the people with serious mental illness. Method According to Treatment-management specification of severe mental illness (2012) and specification of national basic public health services (2011), the information such as home ther-apy, medicine taken, and dangerous behavior happened were collected from patients who were confirmed as serious men-tal illness in January 2015 to April 2016 in Gansu province. Result Up to April 30th, 2016, totally 70538 serious mental illnesses were identified, and about 81.10%(57195) were under management. The rate of treatment of serious mental ill-ness was 69.9%(48009/68663) in Gansu province, and Bipolar affective disorder (76.0%) was the highest (P<0.001). The rate of taking medication in patients under family-management was 42.16%(24113/57195), and the rate of taking regular medication was 24.74%(14150/57195). The rate of taking medication in Paranoiac psychosis patients (51.98%) was the highest (P<0.001), and the rate of taking regular medication in Mental disorders caused by epilepsy (31.02%) was the highest (P<0.001). Conclusion The rate of family-management, treatment, taking medication and take regular medica-tion of serious mental illness in Gansu province are all below the national average level. A special training should be giv-en to medical professionals to strengthen their capacity to treat serious mental illness.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the predictive role of TEL/AML1 fusion gene in protocol CCLG-ALL-2008 and to identify relevant factors influencing the outcome of ALL with TEL/AML1 fusion gene. Methods Ninety-nine patients with ALL harboring TEL/AML1 fusion gene (positive) and 329 cases without any specific fusion genes (negative) at diagnosis of B-lineage ALL from June 2008 to December 2014 were enrolled and their clinical and biological features were analyzed. Following-up ended in October 2015, the survival status was calculated by K-M curve and prognostic factors were analyzed by COX model. Results There were no differences between the two groups in age, white blood cell at the diagnostic stage, and treatment responses at 4 time points, namely, prednisone good response on day 8, M3 status of BM on D15, and the minimal residual disease (MRD) more than 1.0×10-3 on day 33 and 12th week. During the follow-up period, the relapse rate was lower in the positive group than that in the negative group (14/99 vs 69/329), the mortality rate of the negative group was twice of that in the positive group (55/329 vs 8/99). The five-year overall survival (OS) rate, relapse-free survival (RFS) rate and event-free survival (EFS) rate of the positive group were (86.1 ± 4.9)%, (80.7 ± 5.1)% and (78.9 ± 5.1)%, respectively, and (79 ±2.8)%, (72± 3.1)%, and (69.6+ 3.1)% for the negative group as well. COX regression analysis indicated that relapse and MRD level at the 12th week were independent prognostic factors on OS, RFS, and EFS (P<0.05) for the two groups. Conclusions TEL/AML1 fusion gene could be regarded as a relatively good indicator of risks in ALL children treated by CCLG-ALL-2008 protocol. ALL patients with TEL/AML1 are recommended to receive more intensive therapy including hematopoietic stem cell transplantation when the patients were high level of MRD on the 12th week after treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the quality of life and the related factors in adult epilepsy patients in rural areas of Gansu province. Methods The Quality of Life in the Epilepsy-31 Inventory Chinese version (QOLIE-31) were used to evaluate the quality of life in 154 epilepsy patients and 149 healthy controls. The relationship of demographic variables (gender, age, marital status, profession and education, etc.) and clinical variables (age of onset, duration, type of seizures, seizure frequency and medication, etc.) with the quality of life were analyzed in patients. Results Compared with the con?trol group, the QOLIE-31 score was significantly lower in epileptic group [(47.63±7.74) vs. (52.28±5.75), P0.05). The differences of patients' QOLIE-31 score were significantly different between differ?ent incomes, medication types of epilepsy (P<0.05). The patient's family income (β=3.115, P=0.002) and the type of medi?cation (β=3.261, P=0.027) were factors affecting their quality of life. Conclusion The quality of life in adult patients with epilepsy is lower. Economic status of family and the number of drug type significantly affects the quality of life in patients. Reasonable drug choice to treat seizure and reduce the economic burden of the family are effective measures to improve the quality of life of patients with epilepsy.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the expression level and CpG island methylation status of miR-34b in leukemia cell lines and to research the effect of DNA methylation on the proliferation of leukemia cells regulated by miR-34b.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Taqman real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was carried out to detect the relative expression of miR-34b in control group (bone marrow cells of 20 children without blood disease) and 8 leukemia cell lines (U937, HL-60, MV4-11, M2R, K562, Raji, CCRF, DAMI). Methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) was carried out to detect the methylation differences of miR-34b in control group (Bone marrow cells of 23 children without blood disease), 8 leukemia cell lines. HL-60 and K562 were treated with methyltransferase inhibitor (5-aza-2-dC) for further detection of its methylation status and expression of miR-34b. Hsa-miR-34b mimics was transfected into K562 cell by liposome, the transfection efficiency was detected by flow cytometry. The cell proliferation of hsa-miR-34b transfected group in each stage was measured with CCK-8 assay, and then compared with non-transfected group and negative control group.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The relative expression level of miR-34b in the group of children without blood disease and the group of leukemia cell lines were 5.22 ± 1.15, 0.03 ± 0.03. The results showed that, the group of leukemia cell lines was significantly different from the control group (t = 4.538, P < 0.01) . Eight leukemia cell lines showed methylation, the positive rate of the methyl was 100%. There was no methylation in the 23 cases of control group. After leukemia cell lines HL-60 and K562 were treated with 5-aza-2-dC, the methylated bands became obviously weakened, and the relative expression levels of miR-34b substantially increased 49.5 times and 18.8 times respectively. After hsa-miR-34b mimics was transfected into K562 cell by liposome, its transfection efficiency detected by flow cytometry was 61% and the cell proliferation was measured with CCK-8 assay from which it was found that the cell proliferation was significantly suppressed compared with the control group at 48 h (t = 9.303, P < 0.01), 72 h (t = 65.617, P < 0.01), 96 h (t = 36.878, P < 0.01) and 120 h (t = 18.748, P < 0.01) in hsa-miR-34b transfected group, with the inhibition rate of 12.2% (48 h), 45.7% (72 h), 32.5% (96 h) and 22.9% (120 h).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The hypermethylation of promoter leads to decrease in the expression levels of miR-34b in leukemia cell lines, which attenuate mechanism of proliferative inhibition may be one of the reasons of occurrence or development of childhood leukemia.</p>
