睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征( SAHS) 是一种常见病症,临床上以阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征( OSAHS) 最为常见[1] 。1993 年一项基于社区人群的研究中, Young 等[2] 发现年龄介于30 ～60 岁的人群中, 以睡眠呼吸暂停低通气指数( AHI) ≥5 次/h 定义的OSAHS在女性的患病率为9% ,在男性为24% , 2% 的女性和4% 的男性同时存在嗜睡症状。越来越多的证据表明睡眠呼吸暂停可导致许多并发症, 包括行为和躯体两方面。行为并发症包括日间嗜睡、注意力下降和神经心理异常, 而躯体并发症主要包括心脑血管疾病, 尤其是高血压[3, 4] 。OSAHS 是全身多个脏器功能损害的独立危险因素, 其中心血管并发症是主要死因[5] 。如何评价OSAHS 病情严重程度, 对患者的诊断、治疗及预后判断具有非常重要的意义。目前AHI 仍然是诊断OSAHS 的金标准,但其与靶器官损害的相关性存在诸多争议。
目的：分析汶川地震致脊髓损伤患者的病情特点。方法：对35例地震致脊髓损伤患者进行回顾性调查。结果：地震造成的这35例脊髓损伤患者在性别、年龄无明显差异，完全性损伤占42.86%，不完全损伤占57.14%。主要致伤原因为压榨伤（68.57%）。骨折部位依次为腰椎（57.14%）、胸椎（28.57%）、颈椎（11.43%）。受伤时体位60%为屈曲位。31.43%的完全性损伤患者由非专业救援人员救出。结论：35例患者脊髓损伤程度普遍较重，主要是与地震当时巨大冲击力有关，也与受灾现场救援条件严重受限，错过最佳治疗时机有关。现场的急救、救援方式对患者的伤情和预后有重要影响，因此需要大力宣传和普及灾害后抢救伤员的基本知识。
Objective To develop a multidisciplinary nursing program for Prader-Willi syndrome with spinal deformity and evaluate its effectiveness in clinical practice. Methods In July 2016, a multidisciplinary collaborative team was established before the treatment of children with Prader-Willi syndrome complicated with spinal deformity. For the nursing difficulties in the perioperative period, relevant literature was consulted, and a multidisciplinary collaborative nursing plan was formulated, which included nutrition management and blood glucose control, management of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome, behavioral intervention related to mental change, and early identification and management of complications. The developed multidisciplinary collaborative nursing program was applied to three children with Prader-Willi syndrome complicated with spinal deformity in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from July 2016 to October 2018, and their postoperative recovery was evaluated. Results One child had inguinal skin ulceration when admitted to hospital, which was significantly improved after active treatment. The perioperative blood glucose level control of the three children was satisfactory, and there was no postoperative gastrointestinal dysfunction, deep wound infection, respiratory complications, internal fixation failure or other complications, and no asphyxia, fall, loss, or other adverse events. The follow-up compliance after discharge was 100%. Conclusions Multidisciplinary collaboration programs can escort patient’ safety and promote their recovery, improve the professional level of nursing staff, and reflect the nursing value. As a working mode, it can be further popularized and used for reference in the nursing of other difficult diseases.
In recent years, photon-counting computed tomography (PCD-CT) based on photon-counting detectors (PCDs) has become increasingly utilized in clinical practice. Compared with conventional CT, PCD-CT has the potential to achieve micron-level spatial resolution, lower radiation dose, negligible electronic noise, multi-energy imaging, and material identification, etc. This advancement facilitates the promotion of ultra-low dose scans in clinical scenarios, potentially detecting minimal and hidden lesions, thus significantly improving image quality. However, the current state of the art is limited and issues such as charge sharing, pulse pileup, K-escape and count rate drift remain unresolved. These issues could lead to a decrease in image resolution and energy resolution, while an increasing in image noise and ring artifact and so on. This article systematically reviewed the physical principles of PCD-CT, and outlined the structural differences between PCDs and energy integration detectors (EIDs), and the current challenges in the development of PCD-CT. In addition, the advantages and disadvantages of three detector materials were analysed. Then, the clinical benefits of PCD-CT were presented through the clinical application of PCD-CT in the three diseases with the highest mortality rate in China (cardiovascular disease, tumour and respiratory disease). The overall aim of the article is to comprehensively assist medical professionals in understanding the technological innovations and current technical limitations of PCD-CT, while highlighting the urgent problems that PCD-CT needs to address in the coming years.
In order to satisfy demands of massive and heterogeneous tumor clinical data processing and the multi-center collaborative diagnosis and treatment for tumor diseases, a Tumor Data Interacted System (TDIS) was established based on grid platform, so that an implementing virtualization platform of tumor diagnosis service was realized, sharing tumor information in real time and carrying on standardized management. The system adopts Globus Toolkit 4.0 tools to build the open grid service framework and encapsulats data resources based on Web Services Resource Framework (WSRF). The system uses the middleware technology to provide unified access interface for heterogeneous data interaction, which could optimize interactive process with virtualized service to query and call tumor information resources flexibly. For massive amounts of heterogeneous tumor data, the federated stored and multiple authorized mode is selected as security services mechanism, real-time monitoring and balancing load. The system can cooperatively manage multi-center heterogeneous tumor data to realize the tumor patient data query, sharing and analysis, and compare and match resources in typical clinical database or clinical information database in other service node, thus it can assist doctors in consulting similar case and making up multidisciplinary treatment plan for tumors. Consequently, the system can improve efficiency of diagnosis and treatment for tumor, and promote the development of collaborative tumor diagnosis model.
The early damage detection and evaluation are of great significance in treatment and prognosis to the left ventricular function for children with tumor. In this paper, it is reported that the early damage of the left ventricular function was observed by pulsed wave Doppler (PWD) and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in our laboratory. Eighty children half a year to fourteen years old were included in this study. The cardiac function indices in chemotherapy group and control group were measured and compared. The results showed that there was significant difference in mitral and tricuspid annulus flow spectrum between the two groups. Compared with PWD, TDI is more prompt, objective and accurate in detecting early damage of left ventricular function in children with tumor.And TDI is a good method for early identification of ventricular function damage in children with tumor.
