ObjectiveTo analyze the relevant literatures on the use of midline catheters in China, and to provide references for further studies of midline catheters.MethodsAll literatures related to midline catheters from the date of database establishment to February 2019 were searched in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals (VIP), Wan-Fang Database, and China Biomedical Literature Database (CBM). Bibliometric analysis methods were used to analyze the search results.ResultsTotally 47 articles related to midline catheters were recruited and the number of publications increased in recent years. About 44.68% papers were focused on introducing experiences of the operation process, nursing points, prevention and treatment of complications, and about 38.30% papers were observational studies about indwelling time of midline catheters and complications rate.ConclusionsMore and more attention has been paid to the midline catheters, but further studies with large samples and high quality are still needed, in order to provide more evidence for the application and popularization of midline catheters in China, and choose a safe, comfortable, convenient, low-cost and high-benefit intravenous infusion device for patients.
ObjectiveTo investigate status of readiness for hospital discharge of patients with liver cancer after radical surgery and to explore its influencing factors.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted, a total of 200 patients with liver cancer after the radical resection who were planned to discharge within 1 to 2 days in this hospital from January to April 2019 were selected as the study subjects. The general informations and informations relevant readiness for hospital discharge of patients were investigated and analyzed by the questionnaire.ResultsIn this study, 200 questionnaires were distributed, of which 195 were recovered, and 184 were valid, the final effective recovery rate was 92% (184/200). The scores of 4 dimensions of readiness for hospital discharge in 184 patients: The own status was 42.55±12.36, disease knowledge was 51.68±17.58, and response ability was 21.05±6.86, social support available was 31.85±7.56, and the total score of readiness for hospital discharge was 147.07±36.25. One hundred and eighty-four (80.4%) of 184 patients were prepared to discharge. The univariate analysis results showed that the readiness for hospital discharge score was related to the gender, monthly income per household, preoperative comorbidities, and time with tube after the operation (P<0.05); Further the multiple regression analysis showed that the monthly income per household and preoperative comorbidities were the important influencing factors for it (P<0.05).ConclusionsAccording to results of this study on readiness for hospital discharge of patients with liver cancer after operation in this hospital, readiness for hospital discharge is better, and gender, monthly income per household, preoperative comorbidities, and time with tube after operation are influence factors for it, of which monthly income per household and preoperative comorbidities are important influencing factors.

Methods The clinical data of 148 patients with colon cancer who underwent surgical operation between January 2005 and December 2007 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the number of lymph node metastasis, the patients were divided into three groups, group N0(the number of lymph metastasis equals to 0), group N1(the number of lymph node metastasis ranges from 1 to 3) and group N2 (the number of lymph node metastasis was equal or greater than 4). And we chose Kaplan-Meier to analyze patients′ survival and Log-rank test was used to compare the 3-year survival index; rank sum test was used to analyze the level data, and then chi-square test was chosen to compare local recurrence rate, metastasis rate and mortality among the three groups. Results The indexes of the 3-year survival in group N0 (91 cases), group N1 (41 cases) and group N2(16 cases) wre 88.1%, 1.4%, and 61.1%, respectively. The differences were significant (P=0.003). Besides, the differences between group N0 and N1, N0 and N2 were both significant (P=0.012,0.002); the differences between group N1 and N2 was not significant (P=0.344). The differences among three groups in local recurrence rate, metastasis rate and mortality were all significant(P=0.006, 0.001, 0.005); the differences between group N0 and N1 in local recurrence rate, metastasis rate and mortality were significant (P=0.008, 0.000, 0.012); the differences between group N0 and N2 in local recurrence rate, metastasis rate and mortality were significant (P=0.021, 0.047, 0.010), while the differences between group N1 and N2 in local recurrence rate, metastasis rate and mortality were not significant (P=1.000,0.585,0.523). Conclusion The number of lymph node metastasis is a dangerous factor to the 3-year survival in patients with colon cancer after operation, and the prongnosis of the 3-year survival in patients without lymph node metastasis is better than that in patients′ with lymph node metastasis.
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of pouched suture plus external dissection and internal ligation in the treatment of mixed hemorrhoids. Methods Seventy patients with Ⅲ-Ⅳ internal henmorrhoids and mixed hemorrhoids who were admitted into Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine form June 2015 to June 2016 were enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into two groups: the combined operativ group and control group. The combined operativ group in which 35 cases were treated by pouched suture plus external dissection and internal ligation, and the control group in which 35 cases were treated by external dissection and internal ligation. The wound healing time, clinical curative effect, hospital stay, the operative time and postoperative complications (postoperative pain, edema, postoperative bleeding volume, urination difficulties, residual skin tag, anorectal stenosis) between two groups were compared. Results No significant difference were found in the clinical curative effect, the operative time and anorectal stenosis in two groups (P>0.05). The visual analogue scale (VAS) scores and the edema scores of the combined operativ group on the first day, the third day, and the fifth day after operation were lower than those of control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05), while there were no statistically significant on the seventh day after operation in two groups (P>0.05) . The wound healing time, hospital stay, postoperative bleeding volume, urination difficulties, and residual skin tag in the combined operativ group were significantly shorter or lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Pouched suture plus external dissection and internal ligation has the advantages of less pain, fewer complications and quicker recovery, it also meets the modern concept of minimally invasive, so it is worthy of popularization and application.
Objective To compare the application effects of two kinds of oxygen and nebulizer inhalation devices applied to patients undergoing partial hepatectomy, with a view to providing reference for clinical selection oxygen and nebulizer inhalation modality. Methods A prospective case-control study was used to select 228 patients who required oxygen inhalation and nebulization after hepatectomy under general anesthesia in the Department of Liver Surgery of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January to December 2022 as study subjects, and were randomly divided into two groups: grouping group (n=77) and integrating group (n=151). The traditional oxygen inhalation device and atomization device (grouping oxygen inhalation atomization device) commonly used in clinic were used in the grouping group, and the humidifying bottle and humidifying water were replaced every 24 hours. The integrating group adopts a new device (integrated oxygen atomization inhalation device) which integrates oxygen inhalation and atomization functions. The integrating group was divided into integrating group 1 (n=77) and integrating group 2 (n=74) according to the different time of changing the humidifying bottle and humidifying water. The time for replacing the humidifying bottle and humidifying water in the integrating 1 was the same as that in the grouping group. The time for replacing the humidifying bottle and humidifying water in the integrating group 2 was 48 h after used, and replace again it after 72 hours of used. Samples from different parts of the grouping group and the integrating group 1 were collected at 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, 96 h and 120 h after oxygen inhalation, respectively, for colony culture. In the integrating group 2, samples were taken for colony culture when the device was changed twice (48 h and 120 h). At the same time, the nurses’ fogging operation time and the fogging noise of the two groups were measured. The self-made patients’ satisfaction questionnaire and nurses’ questionnaire were used to investigate the satisfaction of two groups of patients and 30 medical staff respectively. Results There were no statistically significant difference in the number of bacterial colonies between the grouping group and the integrating group 1 at different time periods and between the two groups at the same time (P＞0.05). In terms of atomization performance, atomization noise in the integrating group was lower than that of the grouping group (P＜0.05), and the atomization preparation and disposal time in the integrating group were shorter than that of the grouping group (P＜0.05). The patients and nurses were more satisfied with the integrating group (P＜0.05). Conclusions There is no difference in pollution risk between the integrated oxygen atomization bottle and the grouped oxygen atomization bottle. The atomization performance and humidification performance of the integrated oxygen atomization bottle are better than that of the grouped oxygen atomization bottle. The noise generated during operation is small, the comfort of patients is high, and the operation time of nurses can be shortened and the work efficiency can be improved, which has high clinical application value.
ObjectiveTo study the phenotype of children with KCNQ2 gene related epilepsy.MethodsForty epilepsy children who were detected with KCNQ2 gene variants were enrolled. Their genotype and phenotype were analyzed.ResultsThirty-six KCNQ2 variants were identified. Twenty variants were novel. Twelve patients had inherited variants, and 28 patients had de novo variants. The age of seizure onset was from one day to 9 months. 80.0% patients had their seizure onset in neonates (32/40). Multiple seizure types were observed. Focal seizure was observed in 38 patients (95.0%). Epileptic spasm was observed in 10 patients (25.0%). Myoclonic seizure was observed in 4 patients. Tonic spasm seizure was observed in 3 patients. In all patients, seizures manifested in clusters. In 28 patients with de novo KCNQ2 variants, 24 had development delay (85.7%), the other 4 patients had normal development. In 12 patients with inherited KCNQ2 variants, one had development delay, the other 11 patients had normal development (91.7%). The most common interictal EEG changes were local epilepsy discharges (31/40). The MRI of brain was abnormal in 14 patients with de novo KCNQ2 variants and developmental delay. The agenesis of corpus callosum was identified in 10 patient (25.0%). Enlargement of subarachnoid spaces in the frontal and temporal region was identified in 11 patients (27.5%). Cortial dysplasia in the bilateral frontal and temporal region was identified in 2 patients. Sulus deepening was identified in 4 patients. Enlargement of bilateral lateral ventricle was identified in 3 patients. In 40 patients with KCNQ2 variants, 3 were diagnosed as benign familial neonatal epilepsy (BFNE), 2 were diagnosed as benign familial neonatal-infantile epilepsy (BFNIE), 3 were benign familial infantile epilepsy (BFIE), 3 were benign infantile epilepsy (BIE), 5 were benign neonatal epilepsy (BNE), 3 wer Ohtahara syndrome (OS), 9 were West syndrome (WS), 12 were unclassified early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (EIEE), one was epilepsy with autism. Sodium channel blockers oxcarbazepine was the most effective among antiepileptic drugs, with a effective rate of 90.9%.ConclusionsMost KCNQ2 variants are missense variants. De novo variants are more common in patients with KCNQ2 variants. The clinical features of patients with KCNQ2 variants including that mainly with seizure onset in neonate, the main seizure type is focal seizures, seizures occur in clusters. Patients with de novo KCNQ2 variants often had developmental delay, and about half of them had frontal and temporal lobe dysplasia and agenesis of corpus callosum. Sodium channel blockers are effective agents for epilepsy patients with KCNQ2 variants.
ObjectiveTo investigate the psychology and sleep statuses of liver transplantation recipients during the outbreak of COVID-19.MethodsCluster sampling was used to investigate the patients who underwent liver transplantation in the West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January to February 2020. The psychology and sleep statuses were evaluated by the self-designed questionnaire, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (SAI), Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), and Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI).ResultsTwenty-seven liver transplantation recipients were included in this study. The questionnaires of the 27 patients were collected. The SAI score was (46.41±8.77); The score of CES-D was (13.11±7.87), there were 2 (7.4%) patients with depression; The PSQI score was (6.44±4.02), there were 7 (25.9%) patients with sleep disorders. The points of anxiety and depression of the patients with different gender, age, education level, marital status, residence, living conditions, primary disease, Child-Pugh classification, whether suffered SARS epidemics, COVID-19 knowledges level, medical insurance, family annual income per capita, and income and expenditure of cash had no significant differences (P>0.05) during the outbreak of COVID-19. However, the points of patients with male or suffered SARS or the family annual income per capita ≥60 000 yuan were higher than those of patients with female or not-suffered SARS or the family annual income per capita <60 000 yuan (P<0.05).ConclusionsAnxiety and sleep disorder of liver transplantation recipients are common during the outbreak of COVID-19, which could not be ignored. Knowledges of COVID-19 should be paid to spread so as to reduce psychological pressure and improve sleep quality.
ObjectiveTo analyze the genotype and clinical features of children with epilepsy associated with CACNA1A variants. MethodsThe genotype, phenotype and neuroimaging features of 27 patients with CACNA1A variants in the pediatrics department of Peking University First Hospital from September 2013 to February 2022 were analyzed. ResultsThere were 9 males and 18 females, whose age ranged from 6 months to 19 years old (medium: 4 years old and 3 months). There were 22 missense variants, three nonsense variants and two frameshift variants. 25 variants were de novo. Age at seizure onset ranged from 1 day to 8 years old and 6 months (medium: 14 months). Multiple seizure types were observed, including focal seizures in 20 patients, generalized tonic–clonic seizures (GTCS) in 7 patients, absence seizures in 5 patients, myoclonic seizures in 3 patients, epileptic spasms and tonic seizures in 1 patient respectively. 16 patients had status epilepticus, including focal motor status epilepticus in 14 patients and generalized motor status epilepticus occurred in two patients. Two patients had acute encephalopathy. All 27 patients showed developmental delay. Interictal electroencephalogram showed generalized discharges in 8 patients, multi-focal discharges in 4 patients and focal discharges in 11 patients. Unilateral cortical atrophy occurred in 5 patients after focal motor status epilepticus. Two patients had bilateral cerebral atrophy after acute encephalopathy. Cerebellar atrophy in 2 patients. The age of last follow-up ranged from one year old to 17 years old and 3 months. Six patients were seizure-free , whereas 21 still had seizures. ConclusionThe seizure onset age of patients with CACNA1A variants usually began in infancy. The common seizure types include focal seizures, GTCS and absence seizures. Seizures are prone to status epilepticus, mainly focal motor status epilepticus. Patients usually had developmental delay. Unilateral cortical atrophy may occur after focal motor status epilepticus. Epilepsy associated with CACNA1A variants is usually refractory.
ObjectiveTo explore the genotype and phenotype of PCDH19 gene related epilepsy.Methods41 probands, including 39 girls and 2 boys collected from pediatric department of the Peking University and Neurology Department of Wuhan Children's Hospital from February 2005 to April 2017, were diagnosed as PCDH19 gene related epilepsy. The clinical features of the probands and affected relatives were retrospectively analyzed. PCDH19 mutations were detected by Sanger sequencing or targeted next generation sequencing (NGS) and multiple ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA).Results40 in 41 probands with PCDH19 mutations were detected by sequencing and one was detected by MLPA.Two male epilepsy patients with mosaic PCDH19 mutations were detected by NGS with the mutant allele fraction of 85% and 33%. Among 39 female probands, 19 were with inherited mutations and 20 were de novo mutations. The penetrance of females with PCDH19 mutation was estimated as 90% (53/59). Twelve hemizygous fathers and one mosaic father were asymptomatic.The clinical phenotypes of female mutation carriers included epilepsy with mental retardation, Dravet syndrome, febrile seizures, or even asymptomatic. The phenotypic heterogeneity was noticed in females with identical mutations even in members from the same family. The median seizure onset age of 46 patients (including 41 probands and 5 affected relatives) were 11 months (range 4~42months).During the course, 87% (40/46) patients experienced generalized tonic clonic seizures (GTCSs) and 69.6% (32/46) experienced focal seizures. Other rare seizures types included myoclonic seizures (6/46), absence seizures (3/46) and atonic seizures (1/46). Seizures in clusters were observed in all patients, fever sensitivity in 80.4% (37/46), and status epilepticusin only three, cognitive impairment in 76% (35/46) and 7 with autistic features.ConclusionMutations in PCDH19 can be inherited or de novo. Most patients are females, rare mosaic males can be affected or asymptomatic. PCDH19 gene related epilepsy shows incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity.Seizures occurring in clusters and sensitive to fever are the major features.
