ObjectiveTo evaluate donor safety in living donor liver transplantation. MethodsThe clinical data of 356 donors underwent living liver donation in our center from January 2001 to September 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into pre-2008 group(before January 2008) and post-2008 group(after January 2008). The donor safety was evaluated with regard to three aspects, i.e. complications, liver function, and quality of life. Results①There was no donor death in our center.②The overall complications rate was 23.3%(83/356). The proportion of ClavienⅠ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, andⅣcomplications was 50.6%(42/83), 26.5%(22/83), 21.7%(18/83), and 1.2%(1/83), respectively. In all the donors, the incidence of ClavienⅠ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, andⅣcomplications was 11.8%(42/356), 6.2%(22/356), 5.1%(18/356), and 0.3%(1/356), respectively. The overall complications rate in the post-2008 group was significantly lower than that in the pre-2008 group〔18.1%(41/227) versus 32.6%(42/129), P < 0.01〕. The most common complication was the biliary complication with an incidence of 8.4%(30/356).③The postoperative liver dysfunction was transient and generally retur-ned to normal level within a week.④The donor's quality of life was generally satisfied as assessed by the SF-36 tool, and 94.8%(239/252) of them would donate again if necessary. ConclusionEver improving surgical and anesthetic techniques, together with strict donor selection and specialized perioperative management, could guarantee a low donor morbidity and a satisfactory long-term prognosis.
Interpretation of the complete scientific connotation of functional foods accurately prior to approval and registration based on animal tests and small sample size human food tests is challenging. Further technical evaluation after market introduction should be carried out on safety, health function and other aspects of those widely used commercial scale production products. According to the analysis report on the consumption situation of post-marketing population submitted when applying for product registration extension since the implementation of the functional food registration and filing management measures more than 3 years ago, the post-marketing evaluation report of functional food still lacks systematic and perfect evidence support. Based on the successful experience of evidence-based medicine and post-marketing evaluation evidence, this paper analyzes the post-marketing evaluation content, evidence source construction, evidence classification and classification of functional food, and puts forward the preliminary idea of constructing post-marketing evaluation evidence body of functional food safety and health function technology from multiple view points, so as to provide insights into evidence system research in this field in the future.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a group of chronic, recurrent, and non-specific intestinal inflammatory diseases. It usually occurs between 20 and 40 years old, overlapping with the patient’s childbearing age. Active IBD may lead to decreased fertility and adverse pregnancy outcomes, and pregnancy may also lead to recurrence of IBD. Through studying domestic and foreign related literature on pregnancy and IBD, this article elaborates on the guidance and management of IBD before pregnancy, the disease management of IBD during pregnancy, the disease management of IBD during lactation, and the current status and prospects of traditional Chinese medicine treatment. It aims to provide references for patients and clinicians to have a more scientific understanding of pregnancy with IBD.
Objective To investigate clinical application and safety evaluation of sedative demulcent anesthesia in therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).Methods Totally 1660 patients underwent ERCP at the First Hospital of Lanzhou University were prospectively divided into two groups: venous sedative demulcent group (n=800, using sufentanil and midazolam and propofol continuing infusion) and conventional sedative demulcent group (n=860, using common medicine). The heart rate (HR), respiration (R), blood pressure (BP) and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) of pre-anesthesia, post-anesthesia, during operation and after analepsia in every group were detected. The narcotism was evaluated by Ramsaymin grading method and the related adverse reactions such as cough, restlessness, harmful memory, and abdominal pain after operation were recorded. Results Compared with conventional sedative demulcent group, vital signs of patients in venous sedative demulcent group were more stable. For postoperative adverse reactions, abdominal pain, abdominal distension and nausea and vomiting were respectively 4.4%(35/800), 2.6%(21/800) and 3.6%(29/800) in venous sedative demulcent group, which were respectively higher of the incidence of 36.3%(312/860), 49.0%(421/860) and 53.0%(456/860) in conventional sedative demulcent group (P<0.01). The postoperative satisfaction and adverse reactions recall between venous sedative demulcent group and conventional sedative demulcent group was respectively significant different (96.9% vs. 2.9%, 4.8% vs. 97.9%, P<0.01). Conclusion Sufentanil and midazolam and propofol continuing infusion have good effect of sedative demulcent anesthesia, which can be widely used.
Objective To evaluate the complication rate of CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy and determine the risk factors. Methods A retrospective investigation of patients with CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy in Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine between2002 and 2009 was performed. The risk factors for complications were determined by multivariate analysis of variables related to patients’demographics, lung lesions, biopsy procedures, and individual radiological features. Results 281 biopsy procedures were enrolled. The total complication rate was 55. 9% with pneumothorax 32. 4% ( 91/281) , hemoptysis 34. 5% ( 97 /281) , and cutaneous emphysema2. 1% ( 6 /281) , and with no mortality.The pneumothorax rate was correlated with lesion location, lesion depth, and number of pleural passes. The bleeding risk was correlated with lesion size, lesion depth, and age. Prediction models for pneumothorax and bleeding were deduced by logistic regression. The pneumothorax model had a sensitivity of 80. 0% and a specificity of 62. 4% . And the bleeding model had a sensitivity of 67. 4% and a specificity of 88. 8% .Conclusions Lesion location, lesion depth, and number of pleural passes were independent risk factors for pneumothorax. Lesion size, lesion depth, and age were independent risk factors for bleeding. The prediction models for pneumothorax and bleeding will helpfully reduce the complication of CT-guided lung biopsy.
Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of levoamlodipine besylate for essential hypertension. Methods We searched MEDLINE (1999 to October 2007), EMBASE (1999 to October 2007), The Cochrane Library (Issue 3, 2007), CNKI (1999 to 2007), Wanfang (1999 to 2007), VIP (1999 to 2007) and CBM (1999 to October 2007). The quality of included studies was critically evaluated. Data analyses were performed with The Cochrane Collaboration’ s RevMan 4.2 software. Results A total of 345 articles were retrieved, but only 17 were finally included. Meta-analyses showed that the effective rate in patients receiving levoamlodipine besylate was significantly higher than that in patients receiving indapamide (RD 0.14, 95%CI 0.06 to 0.22, P=0.0004), while no significant differences were noted between the levoamlodipine besylate group and other control groups. The incidence of adverse effects was significantly lower in the levoamlodipine besylate group compared to the indapamide group (RD –0.12, 95%CI –0.21 to –0.03, P=0.01), the amlodipine group (RD –0.06, 95%CI –0.11 to –0.01, P=0.02) and the nitrendipine group (RD –0.27, 95%CI –0.46 to – 0.08, P=0.006). No significant differences were observed between the levoamlodipine besylate group and other control groups. Conclusion Levoamlodipine besylate tends to have better efficacy and safety profiles compared with other antihypertensive drugs. However, most trials included in the review were of poor quality and, so, multi-center large-scale randomized controlled trials of higher quality are needed to confirm this.
