In 1984, according to the criteria of the classifieation for congenital hand deformity which wasput out by the International Hand Surgery Committee, we had made an investigation for congenitalhand deformity among 318066 newborns in Shanghai. It was found that the inctdence of a congenitalhand malformation was 0. 0808 percent among the total newborns. The congenital malformation ofthe thumb was 37. 74 percent of all deformities of the hand. According to the statistical analysis, we ...
Objective To explore the effect of multimodal interventions in improving the compliance rate of core infection control measures on reducing the incidence rate of vessel catheter associated infection (VCAI). Methods Inpatients with intravascular catheters in 5 departments with high rates of vascular catheterization and infection of Dongguan People’s Hospital between January 2021 and December 2022 were selected. According to the hospital stay, patients were divided into a pre-intervention group (January to December 2021) and a post-intervention group (January to December 2022). The core infection control measures assessment pass rates of medical staff between the two periods and the differences in the incidence rate of VCAI, average catheterization days, and catheterization rate before and after intervention in both groups were compared. Results A total of 8174 patients were included. Among them, there were 3915 patients in the pre-intervention group and 4259 patients in the post-intervention group. In the pre-intervention group, the total length of hospital stay was 122885 days, the total number of catheterization days was 48028 days, and 28 cases of VCAI occurred. In the post-intervention group, the total length of hospital stay was 126966 days, the total number of catheterization days was 51253 days, and 12 cases of VCAI occurred. After intervention, the compliance rate of VCAI core infection control measures was improved [69.21% (2907/4200) vs. 91.24% (3832/4200); χ2=642.090, P＜0.001], the pass rate of medical staff’s core infection control measures assessment was improved [53.33% (128/240) vs. 91.67% (220/240); χ2=88.443, P＜0.001], the catheterization rate was increased [39.08% (48028/122885) vs. 40.37% (51253/126966); χ2=42.979, P<0.001], and the incidence rate of VCAI was reduced [0.58‰ (28/48028) vs. 0.23‰ (12/51253); incidence-rate ratios =0.40, 95% confidence interval (0.20, 0.79), P=0.008]. Conclusions Improving the compliance rate of VCAI core infection control measures through multimodal interventions can significantly improve the passing rates of core infection control measures of medical staffs. This will help to reduce the incidence of VCAI and ensuring patient safety, provide evidence-based support for the prevention and control of VCAI.
ObjectiveTo explore the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis during pregnancy, differential diagnosis, and standardized treatment. MethodsThe related literatures at home and abroad in recent years were reviewed, and the progress of pathogenesis and treatment of acute pancreatitis during pregnancy were summarized. ResultsThe common cause of acute pancreatitis during pregnancy include biliary system diseases, hyperlipidemia, hyperparathyroidism, the direct effect of pregnancy on the pancreas, etc. According to the different pathogenic factors of acute pancreatitis during pregnancy, the laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), low-fat diet combined with Omega-3 fatty acids, parathyroid adenoma resection, or terminal pregnancy could be use. ConclusionAcute pancreatitis during pregnancy is dangerous, the cause, general condition of patients, and the growth of fetus should be give full consideration, and the diagnosis and treatment are standardized.
Objective To understand pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of metaplastic breast cancer (MBC), and to provide some new ideas for clinical diagnosis and treatment, and exploration of scientific research for it. Method The relevant literatures of the latest research on MBC were reviewed and analyzed. Results At present, the pathogenesis of the MBC was still uncertain. The incidence of the MBC was lower, and it’s clinical manifestations were not specific. Compared with the invasive breast cancer, the tumor diameter was larger, the growth was faster, the differentiation degree was lower, the risks of the local and distant metastases were higher, while the lymph node metastasis was rare. Because of the clinical manifestation, auxiliary examination, and imaging examinations were lack of specificity, the diagnosis was difficult. Although the preoperative puncture could provide a reliable diagnosis evidence, it was difficult for distinguishing and accurate diagnosis due to it’s more subtypings. Some of the specific molecular targets could provide a help for it. At present, the modified radical mastectomy was often performed, the axillary lymph node metastasis was relatively rare in the MBC, so the sentinel lymph node biopsy was more important in the treatment of the MBC. The therapeutic effect was limited by the endocrine therapy, targeted therapy, or neoadjuvant chemotherapy and was poor by the systemic chemotherapy. Although the radiotherapy and chemotherapy could improve the overall survival and prolong the disease-free survival and control the local recurrence, the difference of it’s therapeutic effect was great due to the complex MBC typing. Conclusions MBC is a highly malignant and strongly invasive tumor, and it has more subtypings. Clinical manifestation and preoperative examination are lack of specificity, hence it is easy for misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis. Unified treatment guideline is lack of, prognosis is poor. So, it needs to explore some new treatment methods and formulate standardized treatment guidelines in order to achieve a better therapeutic effect.
The synthesis and secretion of inflammatory cytokines in the monocytes of 68 cases of multiple system organ failure (MSOF) patients was investigated by the method of MTT stained in cytokines dependent defferential cell strain. The data showed that the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor, interleukine 1 and interleukine 6 were increased (Ｐ＜0.01) in the monocytes of MSOF patients. The synthesis and secretion of these inflammatory cytokines gradually increased in the monocytes after onset of MSOF. After 5 days of treatment with antibiotics and electrolytes intravenous infusion, the secretion of TNF, IL-1 and IL-6 were decreased respectively. These results suggested that the TNF, IL-1 and IL-6 are integrated into system inflammatory responese and caused the injury to the tissues and organs. The production levels of these cytokines can be regarded as the index of MSOF and its severity.
