逐级减压套扎法治疗胃底静脉曲张临床观察

目的比较逐级减压套扎法与硬化剂治疗胃底静脉曲张的疗效差异,以期为临床提供参考。方法选择萍乡市第二人民医院消化内科2018年9月～2019年3月收治的胃底静脉曲张病例80例,随机分为两组,每组各40例,治疗组采取逐级减压套扎治疗。对照组采用传统硬化剂注射法治疗。治疗结束后比较两组患者治疗有效率、并发症发生情况、静脉曲张消除率及再出血率。结果 (1)治疗后,治疗组总有效率高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P0.05)。(2)两组间并发症发生率比较,差异均无统计学意义(均P0.05)。(3)首次治疗后治疗组静脉曲张消除率高于对照组,两组差异具有统计学意义(P0.05)。全部患者随访3个月,治疗组再出血率低于对照组,两组差异具有统计学意义(P0.05)。结论逐级减压套扎法革新手术方式明显提高疗效,减少复发率,减轻患者负担,具有明显的实用性和先进性,值得在医疗机构推广,尤其是在基层医院,具有良好的社会效益和经济效益。     

肝癌介入导管室应用精细化护理预防医院感染的价值

目的 探讨肝癌介入导管室应用精细化护理预防医院感染的价值。方法 选择2014年1月～2017年12月在我院放射科导管室接受介入治疗的820例肝癌患者作为研究对象,其中2014年1月～2015年12月行常规护理的患者作为常规护理组,2016年1月～2017年12月行精细化护理的患者作为精细化护理组。对比两组医护人员无菌接触戴手套和外科洗手情况,对比两组导管室物品无菌情况,对比两组患者医院感染和住院时间情况。结果 精细化护理组医护人员无菌接触戴手套和外科洗手检测的合格率均显著性高于常规护理组(P0.05);精细化护理组导管室空气、导管室物品表面、消毒剂以及无菌物品的无菌情况的合格率均显著性高于常规护理组(P0.05);精细化护理组患者的医院感染率和住院时间均显著性小于常规护理组(P0.05)。结论 导管室对肝癌患者行介入治疗时实施精细化护理可以显著降低医院感染的发生率,缩短住院时间,具有很高的临床价值。     

天麻钩藤汤加减治疗肝阳上亢型原发性高血压疗效观察及对神经递质节律的影响

目的:观察天麻钩藤汤加减治疗原发性高血压肝阳上亢型患者的临床治疗效果及对神经递质节律影响。方法:选取2017年1月至2018年1月郑州市第六人民医院收治的原发性高血压肝阳上亢型患者100例作为研究对象,将达到病例选择范围的93例患者按照治疗药物不同分为对照组(n=44)和观察组(n=49)。对照组采取西药基础治疗,观察组采用西药基础治疗+天麻钩藤汤加减治疗。疗程结束后,观察2组血压水平、神经递质节律、中医症状积分。结果:1)观察组晨起平均收缩压、24 h平均收缩压、夜间平均收缩压、晨起平均舒张压、夜间平均舒张压、24 h平均舒张压明显低于对照组(P<0.05);2)观察组神经肽Y、神经元特异性烯醇化酶、血管加压素、强啡肽-A显著低于对照组(P<0.05),P物质、脑源性神经营养因子显著高于对照组(P<0.05);3)观察组甘氨酸、γ-氨基丁酸显著低于对照组(P<0.05),天冬氨酸、谷氨酸显著高于对照组(P<0.05);4)观察组治疗后中医症状总积分显著低于对照组(P<0.05)。结论:针对原发性高血压肝阳上亢型患者,在西药治疗基础上,增加天麻钩藤汤加减治疗,能够有效促进患者神经递质节律的恢复,调节血压,同时对降低中医症状积分,值得临床推广应用。     

Kratom induced severe cholestatic liver injury histologically mimicking primary biliary cholangitis: A case report

BACKGROUND Kratom is a psychoactive substance that is isolated from the plant Mitragyna speciosa. The leaves can be chewed fresh or dried, smoked, or infused similar to herbal teas. The plant leaves have been used by natives of Southeast Asia for centuries. The substance has been used for its stimulant activity at low doses, and as an opium substitute at higher doses due to a morphine like effect.CASE SUMMARY A 37-year-old female with a history of depression and obesity(body mass index: 32) presented to emergency room with a week-long history of nausea, decreased appetite, fatigue, and two days of jaundice. On admission bilirubin was markedly elevated. Her condition was thought to be due to consumption of Kratom 2 wk before onset of symptoms. Liver biopsy showed changes mimicking primary biliary cholangitis. Patient's symptoms and jaundice improved quickly.CONCLUSION The use of Kratom has been on the rise in recent years across the United States and Europe. Several case reports have associated adverse health impact ofKratom-containing products including death due to its ability to alter levels of consciousness. Only a few case reports have highlighted the hepatotoxic effects of Kratom. Even fewer reports exist describing the detailed histopathological changes.     

Surgical Resection of a Liver Metastasis from Breast Cancer

We report a case of a solitary liver metastasis from breast cancer in a 65-year-old woman. The patient underwent a mastectomy and axillary lymph node clearance for right breast cancer in 1990. A solitary metastasis was found in the left lobe of the liver by ultrasonography, 20 years after the initial mastectomy. A left lateral segmentectomy was performed in January 2011 and adjuvant hormonal therapy was also initiated. At present, she remains disease free.This case demonstrates the implementation of liver resection to provide an effective treatment for metachronous metastatic breast cancer. We encourage surgeons to offer suitable patients this surgical treatment option, which is shown to provide a survival benefit.
