Objective@#Limited evidence exists regarding real-world 3-monthly paliperidone palmitate (PP3M) treatment retention and associated factors. @*Methods@#We conducted a retrospective, nationwide cohort study using the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database between October 2017 and December 2019. Adult patients with schizophrenia initiated on PP3M were enrolled. The primary outcomes were time to PP3M discontinuation, time to psychiatric hospitalization, and the proportions of patients receiving the next PP3M dose within 120 days among first-, second-, and third-dose completers. Key covariates included prior PP1M duration and adequate PP3M initiation. @*Results@#The PP3M treatment retention rates were 79.7%, 66.3%, and 52.5% after 6, 12, and 24 months, respectively, with 86.4%, 90.6%, and 90.0% of respective first-, second-, and third-dose completers receiving the next PP3M dose. Adequate PP3M initiation and prior PP1M treatment duration > 180 days were associated with favorable PP3M treatment retention. In multivariate analyses, PP1M durations of 180−360 days (adjusted relative risk [aRR], 1.76) or < 180 days (aRR, 2.79) were associated with PP3M discontinuation at the second dose. Inadequate PP3M initiation was associated with discontinuation at the third dose (aRR, 2.18). Patients fully adherent to PP3M treatment in the first year had a higher probability of being free from psychiatric hospitalization (86.7% at 2 years), compared with those partially adherent or non-adherent to PP3M in the first year. @*Conclusion@#Prior PP1M duration and adequate PP3M initiation are major factors affecting PP3M treatment retention. Higher PP3M treatment retention is associated with a lower risk of psychiatric hospitalization.

ObjectiveThere are many methods for the detection of hydroxyproline (HYP), but few of them are suitable for the detection of lung tissue in mice. We intend to establish an accurate and reliable method for measuring HYP levels based on mouse lung tissues to assess the degree of fibrosis development more effectively.MethodsBased on the alkali hydrolysis method, the effects of the concentration of alkali hydrolysate and hydrolysis time on the determination results of HYP level in mice lung tissue were compared; the effects of the changes of experimental conditions on the determination results of HYP standard were compared; and the results of the determination of HYP level in mice lung tissue under dry and wet conditions were compared on the basis of the above experimental results.ResultsThe optimum concentration of alkali hydrolysate is 2 mol/L and the optimum hydrolysis time is 20 min. The optimum pH value of citric acid buffer is 6.0-6.5. The optimum solvent for chloramine T is methanol, the optimum reaction time for chloramine T solution is 15 min, the optimum reaction time for perchloric acid solution is 5 min, and the optimum reaction time for 4-(dimethylamino) benzoyl toluene is 5 min. The optimum condition of aldehyde solution color development is that it is bathed in water at 85 for 3 minutes. Some related reagents are stored in suitable environment after preparation, and the experimental data will not be affected within 7 days. Dry lung tissue of mice can improve the detection level of HYP. The improved experimental protocol was applied to the bleomycin-induced mouse pulmonary fibrosis model, and the HYP measurement results were significantly higher than that of the original protocol.ConclusionAn accurate and reliable method for the determination of hydroxyproline in lung tissue of mice was established.

OBJECTIVE: To report a modified transvaginal non-mesh repair surgery based on "double hammock" pelvic floor support theory,and to observe the perioperative characteristics and short-term follow-up effect.METHODS: We collected 72 patients who underwent modified transvaginal non-mesh repair surgery from October 2017 to July 2018 in the First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province.Data of perioperative,3-month,6-month and 12 month follow-up were analyzed.RESULTS: The procedures were performed successfully in 72 patients,the average operation time was(119±31)min,and the mean blood loss was(47.75±30.55)mL.No traumatic compliacations were found during the operation.The objective response rate evaluated postoperatively by POP-Q stage in short-term follow-up were 100%,and no subjective symptoms of recurrence were observed.CONCLUSION: Modified vaginal non-mesh pelvic floor repair based on the "double-layer hammock" pelvic floor support theory has the advantages of simple surgical procedure, fewer complications and good effect in the short-term. Further observation is needed to determine its long-term effectiveness.

Objective To evaluate whether the prognosis of 6 months major adverse cardiac events(MACE)after acute myocardial infarction,and the reperfusion state of myocardial tissue are related to the white blood cell(WBC)count in elderly patients.Methods A total of 101 consecutive patients aged≥60 years(mean age 70?6 years)who had a primary percutaneous coronary intervention as their first-line therapy for ST-elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)were enrolled, and both their WBC count on admission and ST-monitoring were available.A prospectively defined cut-off value of WBC count was 10,000/?l,a cut-off 50% measured after 60 min was used as ST -segment resolution(STR).Results The high WBC count group(n=48)showed the significantly higher(52.1% vs 22.6%,P<0.01)incidence of 6 months major adverse cardiac events(MACE)than did the,low WBC count group(n=53).The low WBC count group had 45 patients with STR≥50%, high WBC count group had 23 patients with STR≥50%,STR after PCI was significantly different between the 2 groups(P<0.01).Conclusions The WBC count is a predictor of the adverse outcome in elderly patients with STEMI.Furthermore,elevation in WBC count is associated with poor myocardial microcirculatory reperfusion.
