脑卒中患者急性应激障碍及影响因素研究

目的探讨脑卒中患者急性应激障碍发生现状及影响因素。方法采用斯坦福急性应激反应问卷对349例脑卒中住院患者进行调查。结果共163例(46.70%)患者发生急性应激障碍;Logistic回归分析结果显示,患者性格、是否存在偏瘫及是否吞咽功能障碍是脑卒中患者发生急性应激障碍的主要影响因素(P0.05,P0.01)。结论脑卒中患者急性应激障碍发生率较高,内向性格及存在偏瘫和吞咽功能障碍的患者更容易发生急性应激障碍。医护人员应及时为高危患者提供个体化治疗及预见性护理,防止脑卒中患者发生急性应激障碍。

Automated Intelligent Microscopy for the Recognition of Decoy Cells in Urine Samples of Kidney Transplant Patients

Background

BK virus (BKV)–associated nephropathy is definitely involved in allograft failure after kidney transplant. Thus, the need for an early control of viral reactivation in immunocompromised patients is well established. Determination of urinary release of decoy cells (DC) and BK viral load in plasma and urine by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) usually precedes renal biopsy. The aim of the study is to assess viral reactivation by BKV-DNA PCR and DC detection in urinary sediment using automated intelligent microscopy.

Role of macrophages in peripheral nerve injury and repair

Resident and inflammatory macrophages are essential effectors of the innate immune system. These cells provide innate immune defenses and regulate tissue and organ homeostasis. In addition to their roles in diseases such as cancer, obesity and osteoarthritis, they play vital roles in tissue repair and disease rehabilitation. Macrophages and other inflammatory cells are recruited to tissue injury sites where they promote changes in the microenvironment. Among the inflammatory cell types, only macrophages have both pro-inflammatory(M1) and anti-inflammatory(M2) actions, and M2 macrophages have four subtypes. The co-action of M1 and M2 subtypes can create a favorable microenvironment, releasing cytokines for damaged tissue repair. In this review, we discuss the activation of macrophages and their roles in severe peripheral nerve injury. We also describe the therapeutic potential of macrophages in nerve tissue engineering treatment and highlight approaches for enhancing M2 cell-mediated nerve repair and regeneration.     

Same-Day Yttrium-90 Radioembolization: Feasibility with Resin Microspheres

Purpose

To evaluate the feasibility of a same-day yttrium-90 (⁹⁰Y) radioembolization protocol with resin microspheres (including pretreatment angiography, lung shunt fraction [LSF] determination, and radioembolization) for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and liver metastases.

Abrupt and unexpected stressful life events are followed with increased disease activity in spondyloarthritis: A two years web-based cohort study

Objective

The contribution of environmental factors to spondyloarthritis (SpA) course remains poorly characterized. We previously reported a possible triggering of disease flares by stressful life events and vaccination. The objective of the present study was to specify the types of vaccine and life event that may influence disease activity.

Distributive differences of P2Xs between the forelimb and hind limb of adjuvant arthritis rats and intervention by Notopterygh rhizoma et radix

Context: Notopterygium incisum Ting ex H. T. Chang (Umbelliferae) (NI) specializes in treatment of upper limb rheumatoid arthritis (RA), but the exact mechanism is unclear. P2Xs are useful targets for inflammatory pain therapy. It led us to hypothesize that NI may preferentially act on particular P2Xs and these receptors may be unevenly distributed in the upper/lower limb.

Objective: To investigate P2Xs distribution in the upper/lower limb and NI's targets in upper limb RA.

Materials and methods: The SD rats were randomized into 11 groups of 10 animals each. Eight experimental groups were established by the injection of 0.1?mL FCA into the plantar surface of rat paw. Three control groups suffered the same volume of saline. The articular cavities were then taken on the seventh day to detect P2Xs expression. NI (3?g/kg) and prednisone (10?mg/kg) were respectively given by oral gavage once daily for 14?d. The swelling degree and P2Xs were evaluated individually.

Results: In normal rats, the expressions of P2X₃ and P2X₆ in forelimb were markedly higher than that of in hind limb (P?1, P2X₃, P2X₄, P2X₅ and P2X₇ were increased significantly (P?3. In NI treatment rats, swelling degree of the 7th/14th day in forelimb was 68.24%/38.89%, whereas that of in hind limb was 88.72%/79.92%. P2X₃ mRNA and protein expression was significantly reduced as contrasted with the control group (P?Conclusions: P2X₃ receptor was predominantly expressed in the forelimb RA rat. NI relieved the FCA-induced RA by inhibiting upper limb’s P2X₃ receptor.     

腹腔镜下中间入路与侧方入路右半结肠癌根治术的术中、术后情况比较

目的:探讨腹腔镜下中间入路右半结肠癌根治术的临床疗效及并发症。方法:回顾性分析在2015年6月1日至2018年6月1日期间由中国人民解放军第967医院普外科收治的82例右半结肠癌患者临床资料，45例患者接受腹腔镜中间入路右半结肠癌根治术，为中间入路组，37例患者接受腹腔镜侧方入路右半结肠癌根治术，为侧方入路组；对比两组患者手术时间、术中出血量、清扫淋巴结数量、中转开腹率、术后肠功能恢复时间、术后住院时间及术后并发症等临床指标，评价分析腹腔镜下中间入路右半结肠癌根治术的优越性。结果:中间入路组手术时间、术中出血量、淋巴结清扫数量、中转开腹率与侧方入路组相比差异显著，均有统计学意义（P＜0.05）；但中间入路组在术后肠功能恢复时间、术后住院时间及术后并发症发生情况等方面与侧方入路组相比无统计学差异（P＞0.05）。结论:采用腹腔镜下中间入路右半结肠癌根治术能缩短手术时间、减少术中出血量、减少中转开腹率、增加清扫淋巴结个数，近期治疗效果满意，值得在临床中应用并推广。
