ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the correlation between different degrees of white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) and outcome after intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods:Patients with AIS received intravenous thrombolytic therapy with standard dose of alteplase in the First Hospital of Putian City from January 2019 to June 2022 were retrospectively included. The Fazekas scale was used to score the WMHs shown on MRI, and the patients were divided into without or mild WMH group and moderate-to-severe WMH group. The clinical baseline data and the clinical outcome after 3 months of the two groups were compared. The poor outcome was defined as the modified Rankin scale score >2. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the influence of the severity of WMHs on the outcome after intravenous thrombolysis. Results:A total of 103 patients with AIS were included. Their age was 64.85±10.89 years old, and 66 (64.1%) were men. There were 60 patients (58.3%) in the without or mild WMH group, and 43 (41.7%) in the moderate-to-severe WMH group. There were significant differences in age, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores, as well as the proportion of patients with hypertension, smoking, hemorrhagic transformation and poor functional outcome at 3 months after onset in different degrees of WMH groups (all P<0.05). There were 73 patients (70.9%) in the good outcome group and 30 (29.1%) in the poor outcome group. There were significant differences in age, body mass index, baseline NIHSS score, WMH score, as well as the proportion of patients with hypertension, large atherosclerotic stroke and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage between the two groups ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors, moderate-to-severe WMHs were the independent risk factors for the poor outcome at 3 months after intravenous thrombolysis (odds ratio 3.810, 95% confidence interval 1.298-1.124; P=0.015). Conclusion:Moderate-to-severe WMHs are associated with the poor outcome in patients with AIS at 3 months after intravenous thrombolysis.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the distribution and drug resistance of wound pathogenic microorganisms in outpatients of wound healing center so as to provide a basis for the standardized construction of wound healing centers.Methods:A retrospective case series study was used to analyzed the data of 365 outpatients treated at Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from December 2017 to October 2019. There were 220 males and 145 females, aged (58.8±18.9)years (range, 18-98 years). The patients included 92 first-visit patients and 273 re-visit patients. The culture results (positive rate of pathogenic microorganisms, bacterial species, bacterial distribution) and drug sensitivity results of the wound secretions were compared and analyzed.Results:(1) Among 365 samples of wound secretions, 198 patients were positive for pathogenic microorganisms with a positive rate of 54.3%. A total of 107 strains (51.0%) of Gram-positive bacteria were detected, mainly Staphylococcus aureus (70 strains, 33.3%); 95 strains (45.2%) of Gram-negative bacteria were detected, mainly Escherichia coli (20 strains, 9.5%), followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (17 strains, 8.1%); 8 strains (3.8%) of fungi were detected. (2) A total of 26 (28.3%) first-visit patients were positive for pathogenic microorganisms, and 172 (63.0%) re-visit patients were positive for pathogenic microorganisms. The rate of positive microorganism detection had significant differences between first-visit and re-visit patients ( P<0.05). (3) A total of 29 strains were detected in first-visit patients, including 16 strains (55.2%) of Gram-positive bacteria, 11 strains (37.9%) of Gram-negative bacteria and 2 strains (6.9%) of fungi. A total of 181 strains were detected in re-visit patients, including 91 strains (50.3%) of Gram-positive bacteria, 84 strains (46.4%) of Gram-negative bacteria and 6 strains (3.3%) of fungi. The microbial distribution was significantly different between first-visit and re-visit patients ( P<0.05). (4) Compared with first-visit patients, the resistance of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from the re-visit patients to spenicillin, oxacillin, ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, clindamycin, moxifloxacin, erythromycin, and levofloxacin were increased variably. No vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus was detected, indicating that the staphylococcus aureus presented in the wound was highly sensitive to vancomycin. Conclusions:Staphylococcus aureus is the most common microorganism in wound secretions in outpatients of wound healing center. The rate of positive pathogenic microorganisms in wound secretions of re-visit patients is significantly higher than that of first-visit patients, and the distribution of pathogenic microorganisms of first-visited and revisited patients differs significantly. The Staphylococcus aureus detected in re-visit patients has a higher resistance to common antibiotics compared with first-visit patients. It is suggested that timely detection of pathogenic microorganisms in outpatients and effective control and supervision of outpatient infections are important contents that cannot be ignored in the construction of wound healing center.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the clinical outcomes and safety of haploidentical donor (HID)and HLA-matched sibling donor(MSD)hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT)for severe aplastic anemia(SAA).Methods:From January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2019, retrospective review of clinical data was performed for 75 SAA patients undergoing HSCT at Department of Hematology, Affiliated Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology.Based upon donor sources, they were divided into two groups of MSD(49 cases)and HID (26 cases). And two groups were compared with regards to hematopoietic recovery, graft-versus-host disease(GVHD)infection and overall survival(OS).Results:Time of platelet and neutrophil engraftment of two groups was comparable(11 d vs.11 d, P=0.84; 11 d vs.12 d, P=0.08). Compared with HID group, MSD group had a lower incidence of acute GVHD(46.2% vs.18.4%, P=0.01)with a comparable incidence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ acute GVHD(26.9% vs.14.3%, P=0.24), grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ acute GVHD(15.4% vs.4.1%, P=0.09)and chronic GVHD(23.9% vs.23.1 %, P=0.71). A reactivation of CMV occurred in 27(55.1%)MSD and 22(84.6%)HID recipients( P=0.01). And the incidence of EB viremia was 69.4% and 61.5% respectively.After a median follow-up period of 54.0 and 18.5 months, the estimated 3-year OS rate of MSD and HID groups were 94.0% and 88.0% respectively ( P=0.35). Conclusions:HID HSCT is an effective and relatively safe option for SAA patients, especially for those in urgent need of treatment without MSD or refractory/relapse to immunosuppressive therapy.
ABSTRACT
Statistics show that 76.74% (4 688) of 6 109 patients with chronic wounds are those over 50 years of age; the proportion of patients with underlying diseases in all age groups above 50 years ranges from 78.25% to 100.00%; among the underlying diseases of chronic wound patients, the top four diseases are diabetes mellitus , cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, hypertension, and respiratory diseases. The above underlying diseases and ages of patients are the susceptibility factors of corona virus disease 2019 released by National Health Commission of China. It is an unavoidable fact that patients with chronic wounds have to go to the hospital for treatment prescribed by the physician. At the same time, we found that there were not a few patients who go far afield because of various reasons when go to the hospital for treatment. During the period of epidemic prevention and control, this kind of "go far afield" style of seeking medical treatment may increase the exposure risk during transportation. Accordingly, we convened 36 wound care clinics in different regions in Shanghai to implement the "Five Measures" to encourage patients with chronic wounds to seek medical treatment proximately. The principle of this operation is that when seeking medical treatment, trying our best to reduce as much as possible the transportation distance for patients with chronic wounds to minimize the exposure risk during the epidemic period and eventually support the epidemic prevention and control campaign.
ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore the application value of endoscope in probing the chronic wound with sinus tract in clinic.@*Methods@#Twenty-eight chronic wounds with sinus tracts from 27 patients conforming to the inclusion criteria admitted to Outpatient Department of Wound Healing Center of Ruijin Hospital from December 2017 to March 2018 were investigated in a prospective and self-controlled trial. After being cleaned, the diameter of the opening of sinus tract was measured with a rule. A probe was used to measure the depth of a sinus tract according to the touch from the probe extremity in operation, and to measure the depth of a sinus tract that could be observed with naked eyes with the help of a pair of hemostatic forceps. Five minutes later, a probe was inserted deeply into the sinus tract to measure the depth under the endoscopic view combined with touch from the probe extremity in operation. Afterwards, the sinus tract was observed with endoscope, and the depth of the tract which could be observed under the endoscopic view was measured using a probe inserted deeply into the sinus tract. After completion of the above exploration, the sinus tract was infused with contrast agent Omnipaque 350 and scanned by computed tomography (CT) later to obtain its depth. The following indicators were calculated: the ratio of the depth of the sinus tract measured by CT to the diameter of the opening of the sinus tract (hereinafter referred to as the depth/diameter ratio of the sinus tract), the deviation rate comparing the depth of the sinus tract measured by conventional method (measured by probe only) and by endoscope (measured by probe under the endoscope view) with the depth of the sinus tract measured by CT (hereinafter referred to as the deviation rate of the measured depth of the sinus tract), the deviation rate comparing the depth of the sinus tract that could be observed measured by conventional method and by endoscope with the depth of the sinus tract measured by CT (hereinafter referred to as the deviation rate of the depth of the sinus tract that could be observed). Data were processed with paired t test. Pearson correlation analysis was applied to analyze the correlation between the depth/diameter ratio of the sinus tract and the deviation rate of the measured depth of the sinus tract and the deviation rate of the depth of the sinus tract that could be observed by conventional method and by endoscope.@*Results@#The depth/diameter ratio of the sinus tract of this group of wounds was 1-32 (8±7). The deviation rate of the measured depth of the sinus tract and the deviation rate of the depth of the sinus tract that could be observed by conventional method were (19±14)% and (79±18)%, respectively, both obviously larger than (9±9)% and (25±25)% by endoscope (t=3.837, 13.626, P<0.01). Positive correlation existed between the depth/diameter ratio of the sinus tract and the deviation rate of the measured depth of the sinus tract by conventional method, and between the depth/diameter ratio of the sinus tract and the deviation rate of the depth of the sinus tract that could be observed by conventional method and by endoscope (r=0.514, 0.585, 0.651, P<0.01). However, there was no obvious correlation between the depth/diameter ratio of the sinus tract and the deviation rate of the measured depth of the sinus tract by endoscope (r=0.113, P>0.05).@*Conclusions@#Compared with the conventional method, application of endoscope is able to get more accurate data of chronic wounds with sinus tracts and observe the wounds with wider range.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance of the pathogens isolated from blood of the inpatients in hematology ward.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility test was carried out using Kirby-Bauer method.The data were analyzed by WHONET 5.6 software.Results Of the 521 microbial isolates collected,gram-negative bacilli accounted for 47.2%,grampositive cocci 45.7% and fungi (7.1%).The most frequently isolated microorganisms were coagulase negative Staphylococcus (154),E.coli (88),K.pneumoniae (51),P.aeruginosa (39) and Enterococcus spp (34).ESBLs were produced in about 40.4% of the K.pneumoniae isolates and 63.4% of the E.coli isolates.At least 90% of the E.coli isolates were susceptible to imipenem and meropenem,and at least 70% susceptible to piperacillin-tazobactam.At least 85% of the K.pneumoniae strains were susceptible to imipenem and meropenem,and at least 70% susceptible to levofloxacin,piperacillin-tazobactam and cefoperazone-sulbactam.The percentage of the P.aeruginosa susceptible to ciprofloxacin and tobramycin was at least 90%,and higher than 70% to levofloxacin,meropenem,imipenem,piperacillin-tazobactam,cefepime,and cefoperazone-sulbactam.More than 90% strains of the coagulase negative Staphylococcus and Enterococcus were susceptible to linezolid and teicoplanin.Overall,82.5% of the coagulase negative Staphylococcus isolates were resistant to methicillin.Three E.coli isolates and 4 K.pneumoniae isolates were found resistant to carbapenems,and 14 Enterococcus isolates were resistant to vancomycin.Conclusions Gram-negative bacilli are the major pathogens from blood samples in hematology ward,which show high susceptibility to piperacillin-tazobactam and cefoperazone-sulbactam,imipenem and meropenem.The grampositive cocci show high susceptibility to linezolid and teicoplanin.These data are helpful for empirical antimicrobial therapy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the perceived control of lung cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and to explore its influencing factors. Methods A total of 185 patients with lung cancer were recruited and assessed by homemade general information questionnaire and the Cancer Experience and Efficacy Scale. Results The total score of cancer experience during chemotherapy in patients with lung cancer was (62.50±6.99) points. The total score of efficacy during chemotherapy in patients with lung cancer was (42.52±8.08) points. Single factor analysis showed the influencing factors of perceived control were personal income, sex, education, metastasis, surgical treatment and stage of disease. Conclusions The cancer-related experience and efficacy of patients with lung cancer is at middle level. Health-care worker should pay attention to the impact of lung cancer patients and take effective measures to mitigate the negative cancer-related experience, thereby improving the perceived control of the lung cancer patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the compliance of evidence-based nursing on post-operative elders with hip fracture sitting at early stage. Methods A total of 108 post-operative elders with hip fracture were divided into the observation group and the control group with 54 cases in each group with random digit table. The patients in the control group sit from bed based on their state of vital signs and mental status on the 2nd or 3rd postoperative day. And those in the observation group employ evidence-based nursing on the basis of the control group. The degree of anxiety, postoperative fatigue and compliance of patients were compared. Results Two weeks after the operation, the degree of anxiety scored 40.96±5.13, postoperative fatigue scored 1.89±0.65 in the observation group, which were lower than those of the control group, 56.40±4.28, 4.55±0.71, the difference was significant (t=288.41, 412.35, both P<0.01). The rate of compliance in the observation group was 94.44% (51/54), and the rate of the control group was 77.77%(42/54). The rate of compliance in the observation group was higher than that of the control group(χ2=8.57, P<0.05). Conclusions Using evidence-based nursing on post-operative elders with hip fracture sitting at early stage is able to improve the compliance of patients. It is good for reducing the postoperative complications, improving activities of daily life and mental state, promoting rehabilitation in patients as well.
