Incidence and risk factors of postoperative delirium after pancreatic cancer surgery: a retrospective study.

Purpose: Postoperative delirium (POD) commonly occurs after major abdominal surgery and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. There have been many studies on the relationship between POD and various surgeries, but research on POD after pancreatic cancer surgery is limited. The aim of this study was to identify the incidence and risk factors of POD after pancreatic cancer surgery.

Study on Dynamic Progression and Risk Assessment of Metabolic Syndrome Based on Multi-State Markov Model.

Aim: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) coexists with the occurrence and even death of cardiovascular disease and diabetes mellitus. It is essential to study the factors in the dynamic progression of MetS in the interest of prevention and control.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to analyze the dynamic progression of Mets and explore the potential factors influencing the progression or reversal of MetS.

[Degradation of OG with Peroxymonosulfate Activated by a MnFeO-graphene Hybrid].

The rG-MnFeO was synthesized by hydrothermal method and characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and Raman spectra. The rG-MnFeO was used to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to decolorize azo dyes, e.g.

Early Goal-Directed Therapy in Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock: A Meta-Analysis and Trial Sequential Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

Introduction: The Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines recommend early goal-directed therapy (EGDT) for the resuscitation of patients with sepsis; however, the recent evidences quickly evolve and convey conflicting results. We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of EGDT on mortality in adults with severe sepsis and septic shock.

Methods: We searched electronic databases to identify randomized controlled trials that compared EGDT with usual care or lactate-guided therapy in adults with severe sepsis and septic shock.

[Application of Jintian'ge capsule in treatment of vertebral compression fracture in senile osteoporosis patients].

To study the clinical application of Jintian'ge capsule in treatment of vertebral compression fracture in senile osteoporosis patients. In the study, 69 senile osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture patients hospitalized in our hospital between January 2012 and June 2014 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the treatment group. Patients in the control group were treated by percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP), while those in the treatment group were given Jintian'ge capsule in addition to PKP.
