RESUMO
In this paper, the mechanism of destroying human alveolar epithelial cells and pulmonary tissue by 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) was discussed firstly. There may be multiple mechanisms including killing directly the target cells and hyperinflammatory responses. Secondly, the clinical features, CT imaging, short-term and long-term pulmonary function damage of the 2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) was analyzed. Finally, some suggestions for thoracic surgery clinical practice in non-epidemic area during and after the epidemic of COVID-19 was provided, to help all the thoracic surgery patients receive active and effective treatment.
RESUMO
The incidence of human brucellosis is on the rise worldwide. The disease can affect various systems. The clinical manifestations are complex and non-specific, and the diagnosis is difficult. Especially the clinicians in the non-epidemic areas have sporadic cases on the pest free areas. Lack of experience in diagnosis and treatment leads to misdiagnosis and mistreatment, which affects prognosis. This article reports on the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests and treatment of a patient with unexplained fever and brucellosis in our department in June 2019. Raise the attention of clinicians in non-epidemic areas to the disease and enhance people's awareness of protection in non-epidemic areas.
