RESUMO
OBJECTIVE To understand the current status of the research on rational drug use among the elderly population in Chinese elderly care facilities， and to provide ideas for future related research. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed， Web of Science， Embase， CNKI， Wanfang database and VIP， relevant literature about the research on rational drug use among the elderly population in Chinese elderly care facilities were collected to evaluate the current status of research on the rational drug use among the elderly population in elderly care facilities. RESULTS A total of 14 cross-sectional studies were included. All included studies were completed before 2019 and focused on the eastern coastal areas of China. The AXIS quality scores of the included studies showed a mean score of 11.14±2.25， with six studies having a quality score ＞10. The 14 studies examined a total of 5 770 older adults in elderly care facilities， involving 181 elderly care facilities. Eight studies reported the type of chronic disease in the older adult population of the elderly care facilities； seven studies reported the type of medication used. Nine studies had medication compliance as an outcome， among which seven studies used different analytical methods to analyze the factors influencing medication compliance. The results showed that age， education， duration of illness， type of elderly care facilities， and level of staff attention had significant influence on medication compliance in the elderly population in the elderly care facilities. CONCLUSIONS There is insufficient research related to rational drug use among the elderly population in the elderly care facilities in China， and there is a lack of interventional studies to assess the effectiveness of the rational drug use service in the elderly population in the elderly care facilities. Most of the current research is based on cross-sectional studies， focusing on medication compliance.

RESUMO
Objective:To compare the short-term outcomes between robotic completely portal surgery and robotic-assisted surgery used for lung cancer treatment.Methods:Lung cancer patients treated with robotic surgery in our institution from October 2014 to August 2018 were enrolled. Baseline information and postoperative outcomes were collected. All patients were divided into two approaches and abbreviated as 3-armed utility incision assisted lung surgery(RAL-3) and 4-armed completely portal lung surgery(RPL-4). Short-term outcomes of two approaches were compared after propensity score-matched(PSM) analysis.Results:A total of 471 patients were included in this study: 252 patients underwent robotic-assisted surgery with a utility incision and 219 patients underwent robotic completely portal surgery. After propensity score-matched( PSM) analysis, each group included 159 cases. The comparison of the two groups showed that there were no significant differences in chest tube duration( P=0.307), postoperative hospital stays( P=0.829), analgesics use( P=0.789), the postoperative visual analogue pain score(VAS)( P>0.05), the SF-12 score( P>0.05) and complications( P=0.265). However, RPL-4 caused less blood loss(52.11 ml vs. 70.00 ml, P<0.001) and shorter surgical time of RPL-4(122.74 min vs. 153.16 min, P<0.001). Conclusion:RPL-4 showed relatively shorter operative time and less intraoperative blood loss than RAL-3. Both RAL-3 and RPL-4 are safe and feasible for patients with lung.
RESUMO
Objective:To report the clinical manifestations of 1 case of intracranial multicentric astrocytoma,and to provide a reference for its clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:The clinical data of one patient with intracranial multicentric astrocytomas were retrospectively analyzed and the diagnosis and treatment were summarized,and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:The patient was male,25 years old,and admitted to hospital due to the sudden convulsions 1 time 18 d ago.The head MRI scanning and enhanced scanning displayed that the left frontal lobe and corpus callosum knee exited the group of patchy mixed abnormal signals,and the left frontal temporal lobe exited the capsule-like mixed signals.Surgical treatment was performed,and the lesions of the left frontal lobe and corpus callosum knee and left frontal temporal lobe were resected.The difference of the two lesions was observed during the operation(the left frontal and corpus callosum knee lesion was cystic and solid mixed tissue,solid organization accounted for majority,and had internal calcification;the left frontal temporal lobe lesion was cystic and solid mixed tissue,and cystic tissue accounted for the majority).The postoperative pathology showed that the left frontal lobe and corpus callosum knee lesion had locally more intensive cells,and more different cells,and it was diagnosed as astrocytoma(WHO Ⅱ-Ⅲ);the left frontal temporal lobe lesion was diagnosed as astrocytoma(WHO Ⅱ).After operation,the patient recovered well,and it was recommended to continue radiotherapy and chemotherapy.Conclusion:For the patients with intracranial multicentric astrocytomas,active surgical treatment is in favor of prolonging the survival of the patients.Postoperative radiotherapy is still controversial,but chemotherapy should be recommended.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of one patient with pneumocephalus caused by congenital mastoid dysplasia,and to clarify the clinical features,diagnostic methods and treatment strategies of intracranial accumulation of pneumocephalus.Methods:The patient with ineffective right upper limb activity accompanied stupid speech for 12 h was admitted to hospital.After admission,the head CT and MRI examination were performed again,and the patient was diagnosed as pneumocephalus.The paitent scheduled for stoma repair,neurotrophic treatment,infection prevention and other symptomatic treatments were performed after operation;the patient was instructed avoid cough forcefully,blowing nose,defecating and sneezing to increase the intracranial pressure.Results:Due to congenital dysplasia of mastoid wall,local thinning bones and intense swimming choking cough of the patient destroyed the intracranial pressure balance to form pneumocephalus,the patient scheduled for stoma and damaged dura repair;when discharged from hospital,the patient's right upper limb muscle strength and language function returned to normal;the head CT results showed that pneumocephalus disappeared completely.Conclusion;Pneumocephalus is common in clinic,and its reason is diversiform;it should be combined with the patient's history and imaging findings to explore the causes,the most reasonable treatment measures should be performed in order to relieve the patient's symptoms of increased intracranial pressure,and promote the recovery of neural function.
RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the clinical data of 2 patients with primary intracranial chondrosarcoma,and to improve its climical awareness and management. Methods:One patient admitted to the hospital because of his left eye with oculomotor palsy,and he was considered as craniopharyngioma before operation and received radiotherapy after operation.The other patient admitted to the hospital for the vision loss,and he was considered as chordoma and received subtotal resection.Results:Both two patients were confirmed as chondrosarcoma by postoperative pathological examination.One patient's clinical symptoms relieved after operation,and there was no obvious progress from the begining of follow-up to now;the other patient died of severe intracranial infection on the 10th day after operation.Conclusion:Primary intracranial chondrosarcoma is easy to be misdiagnosed before operation and needs to be confirmed by postoperative pathology. Operation is the first choice for its treatment, and the postoperative radiotherapy can achieve the good results.

RESUMO
BACKGROUND:Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cel s (hUC-MSCs) can secrete a variety of factors involved in the regulation of tumor proliferation, metastasis and angiogenesis. Probably, interleukin-6 (IL-6) is one of the most important inflammatory factors. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of hUC-MSCs on the proliferation and migration of HepG-2 hepatocyte carcinoma cel s via the IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway. METHODS:IL-6 expression levels in hUC-MSCs and HepG-2 cel s were determined by ELISA. STAT3 and p-STAT3 expression levels were determined by western blot assay. Transcription levels of PCNA, CyclinD1 and STAT3 genes were measured by RT-PCR. HepG-2 cel proliferation was analyzed by flow cytometry and cel counting kit-8 assays. The migration capacity of HepG-2 cel s was evaluated through a scratch test and Transwel assays. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The IL-6 level in the hUC-MSCs was significantly higher than that in the HepG-2 cel s (P<0.05). Both the hUC-MSC conditioned culture medium and IL-6 could be used for STAT3 activation. The addition of an IL-6 neutralizing antibody significantly weakened the activation of STAT3 in HepG-2 cel s by the hUC-MSCs-conditioned culture medium. In the presence of the IL-6 neutralizing antibody or the STAT3 inhibitor, AG490, the mRNA expression levels of HepG-2 proliferation-related genes (PCNA, CyclinD1 and Survivin) were significantly reduced. The proliferation and migration capacity of HepG-2 cel s were also significantly decreased by this treatment. Taken together, hUC-MSCs can secrete IL-6 to activate the STAT3 signaling pathway, thereby promoting the proliferation and migration of HepG-2 cel s.

RESUMO
Secretory diarrhea provides a major health challenge worldwide, which is one of the most important reasons for children morbidity and death. The activation of Cl- channels in intestinal epithelial cells resulting in the excessive fluid secretion in the intestine is the main reason of diarrhea caused by enterotoxins. In diarrhea caused by cholera and the other bacterial enterotoxins, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator ( CFTR) is the main cAMP-control Cl- channel to promote the fluid secretion in epithelial cells. Therefore, CFTR inhibitors are the new choices for secretory diarrhea. CFTR inhibitors include thiazolidinone, glycine hydrazide and quinoxalinedione chemical classes, and some components from natural plants also exhibit CFTR inhibition activity, however, further studies should be done.
