Abstract To compare the clinical efficacy of sevalamer carbonate and lanthanum carbonate in chronic hemodialysis patients. This prospective observational study included 80 patients randomly divided into two groups were followed from December 2019 to December 2020. After 12 months of maintenance hemodialysis treatment with sevalamer carbonate or lanthanum carbonate, serum phosphorus, serum calcium, alkaline phosphatase(ALP), parathyroid hormone (iPTH), low-density lipoprotein(LDL), hemoglobin(HGB), triglycerides(TG) and albumin(ALB) were evaluated. The adequacy of dialysis, the effective rate of treatment and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared as well. After treatment, In lanthanum carbonate group, serum phosphorus and iPTH decreased and albumin increased, the difference was significant(P < 0.05). In sevalamer carbonate group, serum phosphorus and LDL decreased and albumin increased after treatment, the difference was significant(P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the dialysis adequacy and total effective rate between the two groups (P>0.05). However, the incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reactions in the sevalamer carbonate group was lower than in the lanthanum carbonate group and the difference was significant (P < 0.05). The two phosphate binders are safe and effective for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with ESKD undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. Nevertheless, sevalamer carbonate seems to be superior with lowering the incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reactions and improving lipid metabolism.

Abstract Background Hyperphosphatemia is a common complication in patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Patients’ adherence to phosphorus control can be improved by consistent education. However, few studies have focused on the model construction and effects of health education on phosphate control for hemodialysis patients. Objective To develop an intensive education program focusing on phosphate control among hemodialysis patients and to analyze the effectiveness of this program. Design A non-randomized, single-arm, single-center trial lasting for 6 months. Setting This program was conducted in a hemodialysis center in a teaching hospital in Zhuhai, China. Participants Patients on maintenance hemodialysis with hyperphosphatemia. Methods An intensive hyperphosphatemia control education program lasting for 6 months was conducted among 366 hemodialysis patients applying the First Principles of Instruction model, which focused on mastering four stages: (a) activation of prior experience, (b) demonstration of skills, (c) application of skills and (d) integration of these skills into real-world activities. The controlled percentage of serum phosphorus, knowledge of hyperphosphatemia, and adherence to phosphate binders before and after the education program were assessed. Results The proportion of controlled serum phosphorus was significantly increased from 43.5 to 54.9% (P<0.001). The scores on the knowledge of phosphate control were improved significantly from 59.0 ± 18.9 to 80.6 ± 12.4 (P < 0.001). The proportion of high adherence to phosphate binders was increased dramatically from 21.9 to 44.5% (P < 0.001). Conclusion The intensive education program can effectively improve serum phosphorus, knowledge of hyperphosphatemia, and adherence to phosphate binders among hemodialysis patients.

Objective: To discuss the specific application of Zhuang Medicine Crystal Sugar Ye’An Decoction in senile skin pruritus and its effects on serum IgE detection level. Methods: 90 patients with senile skin pruritus admitted to our hospital from February 2019 to April 2020 were randomly grouped. The general treatment effect, itching, secondary skin lesion severity, serum IL-6, IgE level and adverse reactions between 45 patients treated with Chlorcyclizine Hydrochloride Tablets (The control group) and 45 patients treated with Crystal Sugar Ye’An Decoction were compared. Results: The total effective rate of the treatment in the observation group was 93.33%, much higher than that in the control group, 75.56%. The difference was verified and statistically significant (P<0.05). Before the treatment, the itching area, frequency, duration and severity of secondary skin lesions were at the same level (P>0.05). After the treatment, the above data were all reduced, and the reduction of the observation group was more significant than that of the control group, indicating the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Before the treatment, there was no difference in serum IL-6 and IgE test data between the two groups (P>0.05). After the treatment, the tendency all declined, and that of the observation group was more obvious, indicating the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). During the experiment, no obvious adverse reactions were observed in both groups. Conclusion: In the treatment of patients with senile pruritus, the application of Zhuang Medicine Crystal Sugar Ye’An Decoction is not only safe and reliable, but can promote the improvement of patients’ symptoms, adjust the level of inflammatory factors, and enhance clinical efficacy.

Objective: To analyze the effect of decitabine combined with conventional chemotherapy on myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and its influencing factors. Methods: Eighty patients with MDS who were admitted to our hospital were selected by this study between February 2017 and February 2018. The selected patients were divided into a traditional group (CAG/DA scheme) and the combined group (DAC combined with CAG/DA scheme) according to the random number table method, 40 each. The clinical treatment effects of the two groups were compared, and the influencing factors of the effect were analyzed. Results: After four courses of treatment, the difference in the total effective rate between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05); the difference in the incidence of adverse reactions and in the overall survival (OS) rate between the two groups were not statistically significant (P>0.05). However, the progression free survival (PFS) rate of the combined group was significantly higher compared with the traditional group (P<0.05); the Hb level, WHO stage and and karyotype of the patients before treatment had significant influence on the treatment effect (P<0.05). Conclusion: DAC in combination with conventional chemotherapy has good effect in the treatment of MDS, and it will not increase adverse reactions. In addition to treatment scheme, the influencing factors of the effect of treatment for MDS also include Hb, WHO stage and karyotype. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.36.5.2289 How to cite this:Liu T, Wang J, Li C, Jia L.
