ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the smartphone addiction among college students during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and its association with daily behaviors and mental health,and to provide reference for heath education and psychological counseling for college students.@*Methods@#An observational study using online quyestionnaire was conducted among 10 357 college students of two provincial medical schools in Guangdong and Shanxi Province from February 24th to March 4th in 2020. Participants were investigated on demographic information, smartphone addiction, daily routine, physical activity, weight status, anxiety, and other health information. Logistic regression with inverse probability treatment weighting (IPTW) based on propensity score was used to analyze the association between smartphone addiction with daily behavior and mental health.@*Results@#The prevalence of smartphone addiction was 59.42%. The prevalence of phone addiction was higher in postgraduates, senior undergraduates, students with non-medical major, students living in GuangDong and those without regular exercise habit before vacation(χ 2=47.91，17.78，42.75，138.58，P<0.05). With IPTW, there were significant associations between smartphone addiction and late bedtimes (OR=1.82, 95%CI=1.66-1.98) and wake-up times (OR=1.55, 95%CI=1.44-1.68), more sedentary behaviors (OR=1.21, 95%CI=1.12-1.31), less moderate to vigorous physical activity (OR=1.33, 95%CI=1.22-1.44), anxiety (OR=2.98, 95%CI=2.52-3.40), weight gain(OR=1.27，95%CI=1.17-1.37) and other detrimental daily behavior and feelings.@*Conclusion@#High prevalence of smartphone addiction has been observed during the COVID-19 pandemic, with impaired daily behavior and mental health.
ABSTRACT
@#Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) is an important assistant technique for complex cardiac surgery, which creates convenient operating conditions for surgery, and is also one of the measures to protect the brain during operation. However, the complications caused by this technique cannot be ignored, and it should be noticed that the occurrence of intestinal injury is relatively insidious, but brings great pain to patients and significantly reduces the quality of life after operation. Studies have shown that intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury is induced by DHCA. It causes mast cells to activate and release many inflammatory mediators that destroy the intestinal mucosal epithelium barrier, and eventually lead to intestinal injury. This article reviewed the research progress of mast cells in the mechanism of DHCA-induced intestinal injury.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To summarize the perioperative management strategies and early results of modified Morrow expanded operation and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) and coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. Methods Between January 2012 and December 2017, in the Second Inpatient Department of Fuwai Hospital, 32 patients (20 females and 12 males) underwent modified expanded Morrow operation and CABG. The median age was 53.7±8.7 years (interquartile range 37 to 67 years). Preoperative chest distress symptom was found in 24 patients, chest pain symptom was found in 14 patients, history of syncope in 6 patients. Cardiac echocardiography, electrocardiogram, chest X-ray, magnectic resonance imaging (MRI) were performed routinely after operation and follow-up to analyze structure and function of heart and mitral valve. Results All patients underwent modified and expanded Morrow combined with CABG. The preoperative left ventricular outflow tract peak pressure difference (LVOTG) was 40 to 152 (79.6±28.7) mm Hg. Four patients underwent myocardial bridge releasing in the same period, mitral valve replacement in 2 patients, mitral valve angioplasty in 3 patients, Maze operation in 2 patients and tricuspid valveoplasty in 3 patients. There was no hospital mortality. CABG surgery in patients with branches included anterior descending artery in 26 patients, diagonal branch in 16 patients, left circumflex in 8 patients, right coronary artery in 11 patients. There were 15 patients with one coronary artery (CA) bypass graft, 5 patients with two CA bypass grafts, and 12 patients with 3 CA bypass grafts. The average of CA bypass grafts was 1.9±0.6. The postoperative ICU time ranged from 1–13 (4.1±2.8) days and postoperative hospital stay ranged from 7 to 30 (12.6±5.5) days. No severe postoperative complications were found and 1 patient had postoperative incision healing. The postoperative new arrhythmia included left bundle branch block in 6 patients. Compared with the preoperative values, postoperative left ventricular outflow tract peak pressure (79.6±28.7 mm Hg vs. 10.8±5.9 mm Hg, P<0.001), interventricular septum thickness (1.9±0.4 cmvs. 1.3±0.5 cm, P<0.001) were decreased obviously. Mitral valve closure is good or only mild reflux, mitral valve forward movement (SAM sign) disappeared. The patients were followed up for 6-68 months, with an average of 38.8±20.6 months. All patients were followed up with symptoms disappeared or only mild symptoms. NYHA classification decreased Ⅰ to Ⅱ grade after surgery, without long-term mortality, complications or reoperation. Conclusion For patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, the application of improved expand morrow operation at the same time undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting is safe. It can significantly improve patients' survival and reduce symptoms, play a synergistic effect, and do not increase the patient's surgical complications.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate the risk factors of prolonged postoperative mechanical ventilation for adult patients with atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 76 patients with AVSD aged more than 18 years in our hospital from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2017. The patients ventilated longer than 24 hours were described as a prolonged ventilation group (n=27) and the others as a normal group (n=49). There were 9 males and 18 females aged 32.22±9.64 years in the prolonged ventilation group, and 16 males and 33 females aged 35.98±11.34 years in the normal group. Perioperative variables between the two groups were compared and selected, and then analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results The result of univariate analysis showed that there was a statistical difference in weight, preoperative pulmonary artery systolic pressure, duration of cardiopulmonary bypass, the level of postoperative platelet, hemoglobin, blood glucose, lactic acid and serum creatinine, postoperative maximum heart rate and postoperative infection rate between the prolonged ventilated group and the normal group. Multivarable logistic regression showed that preoperative pulmonary artery hypertension (OR=1.056, 95%CI 1.005 to 1.110, P=0.030), prolonged duration of cardiopulmonary bypass (OR=1.036, 95%CI 1.007 to 1.066, P=0.016) and the low postoperative hemoglobin level (OR=0.874, 95%CI 0.786 to 0.973, P=0.014) were the risk factors of prolonged postoperative mechanical ventilation. Conclusion Preoperative pulmonary artery hypertension, long duration of cardiopulmonary bypass and postoperative anaemia are the risk factors associated with prolonged postoperative mechanical ventilation.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To evaluate the clinical outcomes of pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) in patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) after re-PVR surgery. Methods PubMed, EMbase, the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register databases, CNKI, CBM disc and VIP datebases were searched, and study eligibility and data abstraction were determined independently and in duplicate. Literature searches from database establishment to December 2018. The heterogeneity and data were analyzed by the software of Stata 11.0. Results Of 4 831 studies identified, 26 studies met eligibility criteria, and invovled with a total of 3 613 patients. The combined 30-day mortality for PVR was 2.2% (95% CI 1.5%-3.1%) and follow-up mortality was 3.4% (95% CI 2.4%-4.9%), re-PVR rate was 6.8% (95% CI 5.1%-9.2%), and the rate of intervention was 11.4% (95% CI 8.0%-16.4%). Subgroup analysis showed that the patient's age range may be a heterogeneous source of mortality during the follow-up period, and there was no statistical heterogeneity for adult patients (P=0.63, I2=0%), with a lower incidence than those including adolescents patients. The type of valve was likely to be a source of retrospective PVR. There was no statistical heterogeneity in bioprosthetic valves and allograft lobes (P=0.24, I2=25%). And the incidence of re-PVR was lower than that of the mechanical valve patients. Heart function classification (NYHA) of patients with TOF after PVR was statistically improved (P<0.05). Electrocardiogram QRS change was not statistically differently (P>0.05). Postoperative MRI findings showed a decrease in RVEDV, an increase in RVEF, a decrease in RV/LV ratio, and a decrease in pulmonary valve (all P<0.05). Funnel map monitoring, Begg test and Egger's test both indicated that there was no publication bias. Conclusions According to the results of the analysis, PVR after TOF surgery is a more mature surgery, the clinical effect was significant, with lower early and long-term mortality. The long-term mortality rate of adolescent patients undergoing PVR is higher than that of adult patients. Long-term outocme of re-PVR or re-intervention is still the main problem affecting the effect of the operation. Indications for surgery and choice of valve need further investigation.
