Clinical Practice and Effectiveness Analysis of the Management of Corona Virus Disease 2019 Infected at Shanghai Fangcang Shelter Hospital: A Descriptive Study.

Background: The Fangcang shelter hospital has gradually become the primary management mode in China's fight against this Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in 2020. In early 2022, the Fangcang shelter hospital management model was successfully applied to the new outbreak of COVID-19 in Shanghai also. Although Fangcang shelter hospitals are no longer the prevailing mode of prevention of COVID-19, the management experience of Shanghai makeshift hospitals is worthy of reference for public health.

Effects of different anesthesia methods on postoperative immune function in patients undergoing gastrointestinal tumor resection.

To investigate the effects of different anesthetic methods on postoperative immune function in patients undergoing gastrointestinal tumor resection. Ninety patients undergoing laparoscopic gastrointestinal tumor resection were divided into 3 groups. Patients in the GA group were anesthetized by total intravenous anesthesia.

Analysis of the Protective Effect of Infection Controllers Supervising Third-Party Personnel Entering and Leaving Shanghai Fangcang Shelter Hospital.

Objective: To analyze the impact of the new supervision and management methods of infection controllers on the protection of third-party personnel entering and leaving Shanghai Fangcang shelter hospital, to provide a reference for the management of third-party personnel in Fangcang shelter hospitals.

Methods: A total of 200 third-party personnel received with traditional supervision and management methods, and 156 received new supervision and management methods from the Fangcang shelter hospital of the Shanghai International Convention and Exhibition Center. The sociodemographic characteristics of third-party personnel, including gender, age, education level, work experience in fighting the epidemic with safety awareness, was analyzed.

The diagnostic value of dynamic volume computed tomography angiography in children with anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery.

There have been almost no reports on the technique of dynamic volume computed tomography angiography (DVCTA) in children with anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA). Twelve children with ALCAPA, aged 5 months to 15 years, were enrolled in this retrospective study to explore the clinical value of DVCTA in the diagnosis of ALCAPA in children. All patients underwent low-dose prospective ECG-gated 320-slice DVCTA and transthoracic echocardiography.

Pneumonia scoring systems for severe COVID-19: which one is better.

Purpose: To investigate the predictive significance of different pneumonia scoring systems in clinical severity and mortality risk of patients with severe novel coronavirus pneumonia.

Materials And Methods: A total of 53 cases of severe novel coronavirus pneumonia were confirmed. The APACHE II, MuLBSTA and CURB-65 scores of different treatment methods were calculated, and the predictive power of each score on clinical respiratory support treatment and mortality risk was compared.

Prognostic value of interleukin-6, C-reactive protein, and procalcitonin in patients with COVID-19.

Background: The inflammatory response plays a critical role in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and inflammatory cytokine storm increases the severity of COVID-19.

Objective: To investigate the ability of interleukin-6 (IL-6), C-reactive protein (CRP), and procalcitonin (PCT) to predict mild and severe cases of COVID-19.

Study Design: This retrospective cohort study included 140 patients diagnosed with COVID-19 from January 18, 2020, to March 12, 2020.

The protective effects of distal ischemic treatment on apoptosis and mitochondrial permeability in the hippocampus after cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Apoptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction are the main cause of neurological injury after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). However, the effects of distal ischemic treatments on ischemia induced apoptosis are rarely studied, and the mechanism by which mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to CPR still unclear. A rat model of distal ischemia was established by clipping the right femoral artery.

Etomidate plus propofol versus propofol alone for sedation during gastroscopy: a randomized prospective clinical trial.

Background And Aims: Sedation with propofol alone during gastroscopy has many side effects. Etomidate has advantages in terms of circulation and respiration compared to propofol. We hypothesized that etomidate plus propofol during gastroscopy would be more safe and effective than propofol alone.

Ketamine effect on HMGB1 and TLR4 expression in rats with acute lung injury.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a common emergency and severe case in clinic. High mobility group protein box 1 (HMGB1) can be treated as a new anti-inflammatory treatment target. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is an important receptor of HMGB1.

Mannitol improves cerebral oxygen content and postoperative recovery after prolonged retroperitoneal laparoscopy.

Background: Prolonged pneumoperitoneum has cerebral adverse effects that may delay recovery and cause postoperative cognitive changes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of mannitol infusion after pneumoperitoneum initiation on cerebral oxygen balance and quality of postoperative recovery in patients undergoing prolonged retroperitoneal laparoscopy.

Methods: Forty patients scheduled for retroperitoneal laparoscopic radical excision of prostatic carcinoma were randomly divided into two groups (n = 20, each) to receive either 0.
