RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the application of three-dimensional (3D) imaging device to colonoscopy.Methods:A total of 60 patients who underwent painless colonoscopy in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from November to December, 2019 were enrolled and divided into 2 groups according to random code. Each patient underwent colonoscopy twice, while 2D colonoscopy was used for cecal intubation. Thirty patients were assigned to the experimental group (primary withdrawal used 3D colonoscopy, and secondary withdrawal used 2D colonoscopy), and 30 others to the control group (primary withdrawal used 2D colonoscopy, and secondary withdrawal used 3D colonoscopy). The detection of polyps, the withdrawal time, operating experience, image quality and complication were evaluated in the two groups.Results:The polyp detection rate at the first colonoscopy in the experimental group was 77.3% (17/22), which was higher than 43.5% (10/23) in the control group ( χ2=5.351, P=0.021). Ten operators in the experimental group had dizziness, while the operators in the control group had no dizziness ( P=0.001). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the polyp diameter [0.50 (0.70) cm VS 0.30 (0.20) cm, U=57.000, P=0.170], withdrawal time (4.6±1.5 min VS 5.2±1.9 min, t=-1.189, P=0.239) or image quality (27 cases with 3 points in the identification of lesion nature, and 28 cases with 3 points in the identification of duct both in the two groups, P=1.000) at the first colonoscopy. No complication occurred in either group. Conclusion:Application of 3D imaging device is feasible for colonoscopic polyp detection, and it can be used in clinical practice.
RESUMO
Clinical post competence and medical ethics literacy are the key qualities that applied medical talents should have. The synergy of medical education is an effective way to deepen the reform of competence-oriented medical education. Under the background of synergy of medical education and considering the orientation of training applied medical talents in our college, we explore a progressive path of "three early education", which means early exposure to specialties, early exposure to practice, and early exposure to clinical practice. Meanwhile, we strengthen the cultivation of medical students' medical ethics literacy throughout the whole process of "three early education", laying a solid foundation for medical students before they enter the stage of clinical practice training. Practice shows that the progressive "three early education" mode and the cultivation of medical ethics literacy throughout the whole process can effectively improve medical students' clinical post competence.
RESUMO
Aim To study the electrophysiological mechanism of dopamine inhibiting insulin secretion hv voltage-dependent potassium ( Kv) channels.Methods Islets and (3 cells were isolated from male SD rats.D,-like receptor agonist ( SKP38393), D2-like receptor agonist (Quinpirole) and antagonist (Epiclopride) were used according to the experiment.Insulin secretion was detected by insulin radioimmunoassay.Whole-cell j J patch-clamp technique was applied to detect Kv channel currents and action potential duration of p cells.Di- BAC4(3) staining was used to observe membrane potential.Results SKF38393 did not affect insulin secretion and the Kv channel currents.Quinpirole signifi cantly inhibited insulin secretion and increased Kv channel currents.Dopamine significantly inhibited insulin secretion, increased Kv channel currents and shortened action potential duration of p cells, which could be reversed by epiclopride.In addition, dopamine de-creased membrane potential of INS-1 cells.Conclusions Dopamine inhibits insulin secretion by acting on D2-like receptors, resulting in actived Kv channels, shortened action potential duration and decreased cell membrane potential.

RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features of missed synchronous multiple early gastric cancer (SMEGC).Methods:Clinical and pathological data of 10 missed SMEGC patients in Beijing Friendship Hospital collected from January 2015 to December 2019 were reviewed for the clinicopathological and endoscopic features.Results:Ten missed SMEGC patients were all over 60 years old, and 6 of them were males. Six patients had family history of tumor and 6 had comorbidity (hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases). In terms of endoscopic and pathological manifestations, missed lesions of 6 cases were not smaller than the initial lesions, and more than half of the missed lesions had the same vertical location in the stomach (6/10), infiltration depth (8/10), histological classification (9/10), atrophic (8/10) and intestinal metaplasia (8/10) as the initial lesions.Conclusion:Physicians should be aware of the possibility of missed lesions during the first endoscopic treatment and the follow-up, especially at the same vertical location of the initial lesions in elderly males with family history of tumor and comorbidity.
RESUMO
Objective:To explore the relationship between the type of mutation and clinical features, prognosis, and clinical characteristics of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) caused by compound heterozygous mutations in the NCF2 gene in children. Methods:The clinical data of 1 case of neonatal CGD caused by compound heterozygous mutations of NCF2 gene at Tianjin Children′s Hospital in August 2019 was analyzed, and domestic and international literatures were searched to summarize the clinical characteristics, gene mutation type and prognosis of CGD caused by NCF2 mutation. Results:The diagnosis of CGD was confirmed by the presence of compound heterozygous mutations c. 196_197insA (p.Arg66Glnfs23X) and c. 1180T>G (p.Tyr394Asp) in the NCF2 gene, accompanied with the clinical manifestations of fever, cough, multiple clumps and nodules in the chest CT at 25 days after birth, and the neutrophil respiratory burst test stimulation index(SI) 23.This new mutation was not reported in the Human Genetic Mutation Database.The child had a residual portion of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase activity and was followed up until the age of 9 months with an antifungal drug without recurrent infection.A total of 101 cases of CGD patients with NCF2 gene mutation were reported in domestic and international databases.Totally, 33 cases had SI results, with 22 cases below 3, 11 cases above 3, and 8 cases of missense mutations. Conclusions:c. 196_197insA and c. 1180T>G are new mutations in NCF2 gene that can lead to CGD.CGD patients containing missense mutations in the NCF2 gene may have more residual NADPH oxidase activity.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the application value of multi-slice spiral CT angiography in the clinical diagnosis of aortic dissection.Methods:The clinical data of 78 patients with aortic dissection diagnosed by digital subtraction angiography and treated between January 2015 and December 2019 in Putuo District People's Hospital of Zhoushan and Zhoushan Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent multi-slice spiral CT angiography and digital subtraction angiography. The type of aortic dissection, the number of aortic lacunas, the distance between the lacuna and the left subclavian artery, the involved branches, the percentage of artery wall calcification, and arterial dissection thrombosis determined by multi-slice spiral CT angiography and digital subtraction angiography were compared.Results:All 78 patients were diagnosed with aortic dissection by digital subtraction angiography, and 75 (96.2%) were diagnosed with aortic dissection by multi-slice spiral CT angiography. The same type of aortic dissection was detected by multi-slice spiral CT angiography and digital subtraction angiography, but three patients were misdiagnosed with pericarditis by multi-slice spiral CT angiography. There were no significant differences in the number of aortic lacunas and the distance between the lacuna and the left subclavian artery between the two methods ( t = 1.02, 0.57, both P > 0.05). The involved branches [61.3% (46/78),] the percentage of artery wall calcification [26.7% (20/78)], and the percentage of arterial dissection thrombosis [78.7% (59/78)] determined by multi-slice spiral CT angiography were significantly higher than 43.6% (34/75), 12.8% (10/75), and 62.8% (49/75) respectively determined by digital subtraction angiography ( χ2 = 4.83, 4.65, 4.62, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Multi-slice spiral CT angiography exhibits a similar capacity to identify aortic dissection to digital subtraction angiography. It can accurately determine the number and location of aortic lacunas, display the calcification and thrombosis of vascular wall, and is minimally invasive and simply operated. Therefore, multi-slice spiral CT angiography is of high application value in the clinical diagnosis and preoperative evaluation of aortic dissection.
RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) eyedrops for the treatment of moderate to severe dry eye disease (DED).Methods:A total of 395 patients (790 eyes) with moderate to severe DED diagnosed and treated in the Armed Police Liaoning Corps Hospital and the PLA 967 Hospital from March 2018 to October 2019 were collected. Random number table method was used to divide into autologous PRP treatment group (196 cases, 392 eyes) treated with autologous PRP and control group (199 cases, 398 eyes) treated with artificial tears. The changes of subjective symptoms of DED, Schirmer test (ST), corneal fluorescein staining (CFS) and Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) before and after treatment were observed in both groups.Results:After 1 course of treatment, the ST values of both groups increased, which was statistically significant compared with before treatment ( P<0.05). After treatment, the OSDI and CFS scores of the two groups were reduced. The difference in OSDI and CFS scores of the PRP treatment group before and after treatment was statistically significant ( P<0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference in the control group before and after treatment ( P>0.05). After treatment, the OSDI and CFS scores of the PRP treatment group were lower than those of the control group [(16.8 ± 18.7) scores vs. (43.2 ± 14.5) scores, (0.21 ± 0.53) scores vs. (1.62 ± 0.69) scores], the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). After one course of treatment, the total effective rate of the autologous PRP treatment group was higher than that of the control group [80.1% (157/196) vs. 51.76% (103/196)], the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Autologous PRP can treat patients with moderate-to-severe autologous PRP treatment group, which can greatly improve patients' eye discomfort and other symptoms.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the clinical, endoscopic and pathological characteristics of early Barrett esophageal adenocarcinoma (BEA) and to evaluate the treatment efficacy of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD).Methods:Data of 13 patients who were diagnosed as early BEA and treated by ESD in Beijing Friendship Hospital from November 2015 to June 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, including clinical data, endoscopic manifestations and pathological information.Results:Out of 13 patients, 10 were male. One had underlying long-segment Barrett esophagus (LSBE), 6 had short-segment Barrett esophagus (SSBE), and 6 had super short-segment Barrett esophagus (less than 1 cm). Two arose from circumferential Barrett esophageal (BE) and 11 from tongue-like BE. Ten lesions were located on the right anterior side wall (12-2 o′clock) of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ), and 12 lesions were superficial type (0-Ⅱ). ESD was successfully conducted in all the patients without any complication. The en bloc and curative resection rate was 100% (13/13) and 92% (12/13), respectively. Pathology examination found 9 well-differentiated adenocarcinoma and 10 intramucosal cancer. No recurrence was detected in 11 patients during follow-up of 3.3-29.3 months.Conclusion:Early BEA tends to occur in elderly male, and mostly originated from non-LSBE and tongue-like BE. Most lesions are superficial type and located on the right anterior side wall of EGJ. In pathology, most lesions are well-differentiated adenocarcinoma and limited to the mucosa. ESD is a safe and efficient treatment for BEA.

RESUMO
Objective To analyze the possible influencing factors of postoperative bleeding after endoscopic submucosal dissection and endoscopic mucosal resection ( ESD/EMR) for early gastric cancer. Methods Clinical data of patients receiving ESD/EMR for the diagnosis of early gastric cancer at the Endoscopy Center of Beijing Friendship Hospital from January 2013 to May 2018, including demographic information ( age, gender and history ) , endoscopic lesion characteristics ( tumor size, location and morphology) and postoperative pathological features ( differentiated types and invasive depth) were collected to analyze the effects of these factors on bleeding after ESD/EMR. Results A total of 195 patients with early gastric cancer were included in the study and 9 cases ( 4. 6%) had postoperative bleeding. The medication history of clopidogrel and main lesion sizes were statistically different between postoperative bleeding group and non-bleeding group ( P=0. 018 and P=0. 034 ) . Multivariate analysis showed a history of clopidogrel ( OR=10. 223, 95%CI:1. 143-91. 468, P= 0. 038 ) , multiple lesions ( OR= 6. 412, 95%CI:1. 123-36. 616, P=0. 037) and lesions sizes of larger than 2 cm ( OR=6. 718, 95%CI:1. 130-39. 935, P=0. 036) were possible risk factors for postoperative bleeding. Survival analysis showed of higher postoperative bleeding risks in patients with the history of clopidogrel ( P<0. 001) and lesions sizes of more than 2 cm ( P=0. 022) . Conclusion More attention should be paid to the risk of ESD/EMR postoperative bleeding in early gastric cancer patients with medication history of clopidogrel and multiple large lesions.

RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the risk factors of operation time of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for superficial gastric lesions.@*Methods@#Clinicopathologic data of 193 patients (195 lesions) diagnosed with early gastric cancer preoperatively who received ESD in Beijing Friendship Hospital from January 2015 to December 2017 were retrospectively collected, including basic information (age, gender, body mass index, comorbidities), lesion characteristics (size, location, morphology), the operators′ experience of ESD, operation time, and postoperative pathology, etc. Univariate analysis was performed to find the risk factors of ESD operation time, and logistic regression analysis was performed on the factors with statistical differences in univariate analysis to find the independent risk factors of ESD operation time over 120 min.@*Results@#The mean age of the patients was 63.34±9.11 years. The median time of ESD operation was 120.00 (95.00, 165.00) min and the median size of the lesions was 1.50 (1.00, 2.38) cm. Early gastric cancer was diagnosed by postoperative pathology in 164 lesions (84.10%), among which 162 lesions (98.78%) achieved en bloc resection, and 148 lesions (90.24%) achieved curative resection. The gender (P=0.018), location(P<0.001) and size (r=0.209, P=0.007) were risk factors of the operation time by univariate analysis, while age, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade, roughness of lesion surface, presence or absence of white moss and ulcer, depth of lesion invasion, operative period, gross shape of lesion, degree of differentiation, and experience of operator were not associated with operation time (all P>0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the lesion located in cardia/fundus of stomach (OR=5.656, 95%CI: 2.291-13.964, P<0.001), body of stomach (OR=2.667, 95%CI: 1.048-6.785, P=0.040) and >2 cm in size (OR=2.761, 95%CI: 1.229-6.205, P=0.014) were independent risk factors for the operation time longer than 120 min.@*Conclusion@#Lesions located in the cardia/fundus, body of stomach and >2 cm in size are independent risk factors for long operation time of ESD.
RESUMO
Depression belongs to the category of "stagnation syndrome" in traditional Chinese medicine. There are many clinical types of depression in which liver stagnation and spleen deficiency syndrome is one of the main types. As a classic prescription for liver-soothing and spleen-strengthening, Xiaoyaosan has a definite curative effect in the treatment of depression due to liver stagnation and spleen deficiency. With fewer adverse reactions, a high safety and good patient compliance, it can be combined with western medicine to reduce the recurrence rate and adverse reactions of western medicine, and has become the focus and hotspot of research in recent years. Although many experts and scholars have conducted a lot of research on the pharmacological mechanism of Xiaoyaosan in the treatment of depression due to liver stagnation and spleen deficiency, its mechanism is still unclear. In addition, there are many types of animal models for depression due to liver stagnation and spleen deficiency but only a few systematic reports on Xiaoyaosan in treating depression of liver stagnation and spleen deficiency. Therefore, based on two classic models of chronic mild unpredictable stress depression model (CUMS) and chronic restraint stress depression model (CIS), a review was conducted on the pharmacological mechanisms of Xiaoyaosan in the treatment of depression due to liver stagnation and spleen deficiency by regulating neurotransmitter concentration, affecting the expression of neurotrophic factor, regulating hytothalamus-pitutary-adrenal(HPA)axis imbalance, improving intestinal micro-ecology and gastrointestinal function, regulating endogenous metabolite levels and immune inflammatory factor levels and improving synaptic structure and plasticity, so as to provide potential guidelines for basis study and clinical application of Xiaoyaosan in the treatment of depression due to liver stagnation and spleen deficiency.
RESUMO
This study was designed to explore the antidepressant mechanism of Bupleuri radix through establishing the active components-targets network and protein interactions network and analyzing the functions and pathways of targets. The main active ingredients of Bupleuri radix were obtained by TCMSP, literature study and the results of our own work. Based on the DRAR-CPI, GeneCards and OMIM were used to predict and screen the active components of Bupleuri radix. The Cytoscape software was used to construct the active components-targets network of Bupleuri radix. The protein interactions network was constructed using the String database and Cytoscape software. The relation of the main active ingredients and targets were validated by Systems Dock Web Site. The GO and KEGG pathways involved in the targets were analyzed by DAVID. Using DisGeNET database to attribute the type of targets. The results showed that 15 active components and 50 targets of Bupleuri radix were involved. The network results showed that the process of metabolism, regulation and response to stress were mainly involved, by adjusting the PI3K-AKT, MAPK, Rap1, Ras, FoxO, neurotrophin and other signaling pathways to play its antidepressant effect. This study reflects the characteristics of multicomponents-multi-targets and multi-pathways of Bupleuri radix, which provides new ideas and clues for further research on the mechanism of anti-depressive effects of Bupleuri radix.

RESUMO
AIM: To investigate the relationship between high temperature essential factor A-1(HTRA1) polymorphism and genetic susceptibility of wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in Han population. METHODS: Totally 201 patients of wet AMD in Han population were selected from May 2014 to January 2017 in our hospital as disease group,and 201 healthy persons of Han were selected as health group. Blood samples of peripheral vein were collected and genomic DNA was extracted. HTRA1 polymorphism loci were detected,and the rs11200638 and rs2248799 loci of HTRA1 gene were detected by Sequenom mass spectrometry platform. Then the relationship between HTRA1 polymorphism and genetic susceptibility of wet AMD were analyzed. RESULTS: The grade distributions of the genotype of the rs11200638 and rs2248799 loci in the two groups subjects had significant differences (P<0.01), and the frequencies of AA and TT in the disease group were respectively 51.2% and 57.7%,of which the health group were respectively 20. 9% and 28. 4%, and the former were significantly higher than the latter, with significant differences (P<0.01). The frequencies of risk allele A of rs11200638 loci and risk allele T of rs2248799 loci in the disease group were respectively 69.7% and 73.6%, of which the health group respectively were 45. 8% and 52 5%, and the former were significantly higher than the latter, with significant differences (P<0. 01). The OR values of rs11200638 genotype AA and AG were respectively 5.36 and 3.45,which were the risk factors of wet AMD (P < 0. 01). The OR values of rs2248799 genotype TT and TC were respectively 2.36 and 1.98, which were the risk factors of wet AMD (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The rs11200638 and rs2248799 polymorphisms of HTRA1 gene are associated with the incidence of wet AMD,and the genotype AA and TT are closely related to the risk of wet AMD in Han population, of which the higher frequencies can increase the risk of wet AMD.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the utilization of opioid analgesic drugs in a hospital,so as to provide reference for ra-tional drug use in clinic. METHODS:The utilization of opioid analgesic drugs in the hospital during 2014-2016 was analyzed and compared retrospectively in terms of consumption sum,DDDs,DDC,B/A,etc. RESULTS:Annual consumption sum of opioid an-algesic drugs in the hospital increased slightly in 2015,but decreased significantly in 2016. Fentany transdermal patches(8.4 mg), Oxycodone and acetaminophen tablets and Remifentanil hydrochloride for injection always took up the first 3 places in the list of DDDs. DDDs of Fentanyl citrate injection(0.1 mg)and Morphine sulfate sustained-release tablets increased year by year;while DDDs of Fentany transdermal patches(4.2 mg)and Fentany transdermal patches(8.4 mg)decreased year by year.
