Epilepsy is one of the common nervous system diseases in children, due to its complex etiology and diverse seizure types, the current treatment are accompanied by many different side effects. Physical activity refers to any bodily movement that results in energy expenditure above the resting metabolic rate and involves muscle contraction. As a complementary and alternative therapy physical activity has gradually gained attention among epilepsy patients. However, there are still great misconceptions among the society, family members, and even medical personnel about whether children with epilepsy participate in sports, resulting in a low level of physical activity in children and adolescents with epilepsy. Current studies have shown that physical activity has a variety of positive effects, such as the frequency of epileptic seizures, improving the cognitive function of children, and improving the quality of life of patients. It is recommended that children and adolescents with epilepsy should regularly in physical activities to improve their physical and mental health. This article provides a domestic and foreign review from the concept of physical activity, measurement tools, the current situation of physical activity in and adolescents with epilepsy, the positive effect of physical activity on children and adolescents with epilepsy, and the factors affecting physical activity in children and adolescents with epilepsy, etc. in order to provide feasible suggestions for subsequent investigation and research, and to provide reliable basis for the clinical formulation of reasonable individualized programs.
Continuous activation of Janus kinase (JAK)- signal transduction and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling pathway is prevalent in leukemia cells, and it has been found that this pathway plays an important role in acute leukemia (AL). JAK2/JAK1 gene mutations are found in both acute myelocytic leukemia and acute lymphoblastic leukemia and may have implications for the treatment and overall prognosis of the disease. Among the STAT family members, STAT3 and STAT5 proved to be key factors in AL. These gene mutations may provide new targets and new ideas for the treatment of AL. This article provides a review of the research progress of JAK-STAT signaling pathway, related gene mutations and AL.
Objective To compare the positive rate of zinc finger protein A20， NF-κB p65 protein， and P-glyco- protein between primary hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC） tissues and paratumor tissues， and to explore the relationship between the 3 kinds of proteins and pathological features of HCC. Methods Thirty-two HCC tissues and 26 paratumor tissues resected from patients with HCC treated in our hospital from Feb. 2009 to Aug. 2010 were enrolled. Clinical data were also collected from files. The expressions of zinc finger protein A20， NF-κB p65 protein， and P-glycoprotein were tested by immunohistochemistry. Results The positive rate of zinc finger protein A20， NF-κB p65 protein， and P-glycoprotein in HCC tissues were 87.5%（28/32）， 81.3%（26/32）， and 65.6%（21/32）， respectively， which were higher than that in paratumor tissues〔61.5%（16/26）， 34.6%（9/26）， and 30.8%（8/26）， respectively〕， P＜0.05. The three kinds of proteins were all closely related with HbsAg， and zinc finger protein A20 was related with cirrhosis in addition （P＜0.05）. Conclusions The positive rate of zinc protein A20， NF-κB p65 protein， and P-glycoprotein are much higher in primary HCC tissues than that in paratumor tissus， and they may play an important role in preoperative determination of hepatic tumors.
ObjectiveTo explore the application of 10% sodium chloride for stage-Ⅲ pressure ulcer debridement. MethodsAccording to the standard, 68 stage-Ⅲ pressure ulcer cases were selected from January 2011 to December 2014. All the patients had yellow surface and positive bacterium cultivation suggesting wound infection. They were randomly divided into control group and trial group. The control group used traditional treatment for debridement, while the trial group used 10% sodium chloride, until the end of debridement where the granulation became fresh and bacterium cultivation negative. Then we compared these two groups in terms of debridement time, wound drainage, wound smell, granulation growth, pain score and cost. ResultsThe control group debridement time was 18-32 days, averaging (22.4±10.8) days, and the trial group debridement time was 5-13 days, averaging (11.6±4.0) days (P<0.05). The control group wound drainage ratings score was 6.70±2.87, while the trial group wound drainage ratings score was 3.65±1.23 (P<0.05). In terms of the wound smell, the control group had a score of 2.74±1.62, and the score for the experimental group was 1.26±0.51 (P<0.05). The average cost of the control group was (975.00±10.29) yuan, while the experimental group was (626.00±8.18) yuan (P<0.05). ConclusionThe application of 10% sodium chloride for stage-Ⅲ pressure ulcer debridement can shorten debridement time, promote the growth of granulation and reduce the economic burden, which is worth clinical promotion.
Objective To systematically review the endometrial receptivity evaluated by transvaginal ultrasound and predict the clinical pregnancy outcome of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Methods PubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, Web of Science, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases were electronically searched to collect studies on transvaginal ultrasound evaluation of endometrial receptivity to predict the clinical pregnancy outcome of IVF-ET from inception to December 1st, 2021. Two researchers independently screened literature, extracted data and evaluated the risk of bias of the included studies. RevMan 5.4 software and Stata 16.0 software were used to perform meta-analysis. Results A total of 24 cohort studies and 1 case-control study were included. The total sample size was 6 632 cases, including 3 340 in non-pregnancy group and 3 292 in pregnancy group. The results of meta-analysis showed that there was no difference in endometrial volume (MD=−0.11, 95%CI −0.33 to 0.11, P=0.34) or uterine artery S/D (MD= −0.04, 95%CI −0.17 to 0.09, P=0.55) between the two groups. The endometrial thickness measured on human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) day in the non-pregnant group (MD=−0.48, 95%CI −0.77 to −0.18, P=0.001) was thinner than that in the pregnant group. On embryo transfer (ET) day, uterine artery pulsatility index (PI) (MD=0.08, 95%CI 0.02 to 0.15, P=0.01) and resistance index (RI) (MD=0.01, 95%CI 0.01 to 0.01, P<0.000 01) were higher than those in the pregnancy group. Conclusion Endometrial volume and uterine artery S/D measured during IVF-ET were not correlated with clinical pregnancy outcome, while endometrial thickness measured on HCG day and uterine artery PI and RI measured on ET day were correlated with clinical pregnancy outcome. Transvaginal ultrasound evaluation of endometrial receptivity has a certain predictive value for clinical pregnancy outcome of IVF-ET. Due to the limited quality and quantity of included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo analyze the risk factors of multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) nosocomial infection, and to provide the scientific basis for the prevention and control of MDRO nosocomial infection.MethodsPatients with MDRO in Chengdu Shangjin Nanfu Hospital from 2014 to 2015 were retrospectively collected. The patients were divided into the MDRO nosocomial infection group and the MDRO non-nosocomial infection group. The MDRO infection/colonization, bacterial strain type, specimens type and distribution characteristics of clinical departments were analyzed. Single factor and multiple factor logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the risk factors of MDRO nosocomial infection.ResultsA total of 357 patients of MDRO infection/colonization were monitored, of which 147 times (144 patients) were with nosocomial infections and 213 times (213 patients) were without nosocomial infections. MDRO nosocomial infection incidence rate/cases incidence rate were 0.18%. A total of 371 MDRO bacterial strains were detected, of which 147 (39.62%) were with nosocomial infection and 224 (60.38%) were without nosocomial infections. The MDRO non-nosocomial infections included 175 strains (47.17%) in community infection and 49 strains (13.12%) in colonization. Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (52.83%) was the main MDRO strains. Sputum (57.14%) and secretion (35.04%) were main specimens. The top three departments of MDRO nosocomial infection strains were orthopedics (32.65%), ICU (27.89%), neurosurgery (13.61%). ICU [odds ratio (OR)=3.596, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.124, 11.501), P=0.031], surgical history [OR=2.858, 95%CI (1.061, 7.701), P=0.038], indwelling urinary catheter [OR=3.250, 95%CI (1.025, 10.306), P=0.045], and using three or more antibiotics [OR=4.228, 95%CI (1.488, 12.011), P=0.007] were the independent risk factors of MDRO nosocomial infection.ConclusionEffective infection prevention and control measures should be adopted for the risk factors of MDRO nosocomial infection to reduce the incidence rate of MDRO nosocomial infection.
