舒芬太尼在肾母细胞瘤患儿术后镇痛中的应用效果及对患儿免疫功能的影响

目的探讨舒芬太尼在肾母细胞瘤患儿术后镇痛中的应用效果及对患儿免疫功能的影响。方法采用随机数字表法将42例肾母细胞瘤患儿分为低剂量、中剂量和高剂量组,每组14例,低剂量组、中剂量组、高剂量组患儿术后舒芬太尼镇痛剂量分别为1.0、2.5、4.0μg/kg。术后6、24、48 h,采用中文版儿童疼痛行为量表(FLACC)评估三组患儿的镇痛效果,以及不良反应发生情况;麻醉前和术后1、24、72 h,检测三组患儿免疫功能指标,包括免疫球蛋白(Ig)G、IgA、IgM。结果术后6、24、48 h,中剂量组、高剂量组患儿FLACC评分均低于低剂量组患儿,差异均有统计学意义(P﹤0.05)。术后1、24、72 h,低剂量组患儿IgG、IgA、IgM水平均低于本组麻醉前,差异均有统计学意义(P﹤0.05);术后1、24 h,中剂量组和高剂量组患儿IgG、IgA、IgM水平均低于本组麻醉前,差异均有统计学意义(P﹤0.05),但术后72 h,中剂量组和高剂量组患儿IgG、IgA、IgM水平与麻醉前比较,差异均无统计学意义(P﹥0.05)。低剂量组患儿未发生不良反应,中剂量组患儿发生恶心1例,高剂量组患儿发生恶心5例、呕吐3例。结论2.5μg/kg的舒芬太尼在肾母细胞瘤患儿术后镇痛中效果明显,且对患儿的免疫系统发挥一定的保护作用,可以减轻患儿术后免疫功能抑制。     

The relevance of Xenophon’s Anabasis and Plato’s Meno to nursing

The current situation in which the humanities are disparaged affects all university disciplines, including nursing, in whose historical evolution the humanities have always been present in one form or another. Looking beyond this disrepute, this study proposes that nursing renew its attention to classical philosophy. Specifically, it invites a close reading of Xenophon's Anabasis and Plato's Meno, to get three related goals: to show how the use of ancient texts are very valuable tools for the philosophical initiation of nursing students and can help them reflect on their choice of nursing as a practical activity; to reflect on the problem of virtue and the nature of the good life; and to show how the interaction with ancient texts allows students to reflect on questions and issues of life, theirs and others, that are not open to investigation through a purely scientific method. Consequently, both Anabasis and Meno readings strengthen the intellectual relationship between philosophy and nursing, enabling the latter to delve deeper into the key questions of its own thought as a discipline.

Patient preferences and predicted relative uptake for targeted therapies in metastatic colorectal cancer: a discrete choice experiment

Abstract

Objective

Ras wild-type metastatic colorectal cancers (mCRC) may be treated with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) agents. We aim to estimate patients’ preferences for mCRC treatment and relative importance of cost, efficacy improvement, avoidance of side effects and therapy convenience, and relative uptake between profiles that resemble Bevacizumab (anti-VEGF) and Cetuximab (anti-EGFR), two commonly prescribed mCRC targeted therapies.     

Recurrent Oral and Genital Ulcers in an Infant: Neonatal Presentation of Pediatric Behçet Disease

Behçet disease is a complex, multisystem disease characterized by recurrent oral and genital ulcerations. It rarely occurs in infants or children. Neonatal Behçet disease has been reported in infants whose ulcers resolve at or before 9 weeks of age. Few cases of neonatal Behçet disease persisting into childhood have previously been reported. We report the case of a 1‐month‐old infant who presented with severe recurrent genital ulcerations and at 6 months developed recurrent oral ulcerations. Her orogenital ulcerations continue to recur. Human leukocyte antigen testing revealed HLA‐B51 and B44 positivity. This is a case of pediatric Behçet disease in the neonatal period. Behçet disease should be considered in the differential diagnosis of recurrent genital and oral ulcerations in infants and children.
