ABSTRACT

Objectives:Microvascular obstruction (MVO) is a specific cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging feature in patients with acute myocardial infarction. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the predictive value of MVO in left ventricular adverse remodeling after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).Methods:A total of 167 patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI in the Chinese PLA General Hospital from 2016 to 2020 were enrolled in this prospective cohort study, the average age of study patients was 57±10 years old, with 151 males (90.4%) and 16 females (9.6%). The patients were divided into the MVO group ( n=81) and non-MVO group ( n=86) according to the presence or absence of MVO on CMR imaging, respectively. The primary endpoint of the study was the occurrence of left ventricular adverse remodeling, which was defined as an increase in left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV) by >20% at 6 months after primary PCI compared with the baseline. Patients who completed follow-up were diagnosed as left ventricular adverse remodeling or no left ventricular adverse remodeling according to CMR. The baseline data, perioperative data, and related data of end points were compared between the MVO group and non-MVO group. Finally, the predictive value of MVO in left ventricular adverse remodeling was calculated by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Results:In the baseline data, preoperative thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow ( χ2=13.74, P=0.003) and postoperative TIMI flow ( χ2=14.87, P=0.001) were both obviously decreased in the MVO group. After 6 months of follow-up, the incidence of left ventricular adverse remodeling in the MVO group was significantly higher than that in the non-MVO group [37.0%(27/73) vs. 18.9%(14/74), χ2=5.96, P=0.015]. The left ventricular end systolic volume at 6 months post infarction in the MVO group was significantly larger than that in the non-MVO group [(94±32) vs. (68±20) ml, t=-5.98, P<0.001], as well as the LVEDV [(169±38) vs. (143±29) ml, t=-4.74, P<0.001]. Receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the area under the curve of MVO size for predicting left ventricular adverse remodeling was 0.637. Conclusion:The risk of left ventricular adverse remodeling is significantly increased in patients with MVO after primary PCI for acute STEMI.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the radiation dose and detection efficiency of artificial intelligence (AI) system for solid nodules in chest phantom with different scanning protocols.Methods:A total of 60 simulated nodules with different CT values and diameters were uniformly placed in each lung lobe and lung segment of the anthropomorphic chest phantom. GE Revolution evo CT was used to scan the chest phantom. 64 groups of images with different scanning parameters were collected at the tube voltage of 80, 100, 120, 140 kV, different noise indexes (NI 10-40 with interval 2), and other fixed parameters. The detection result of simulated nodules were recorded on AI software, and the detection rate and false detection rate were calculated, respectively, for different shapes of nodules. The mean volume CT dose index (CTDI vol) and dose length product (DLP) of each scan were recorded. Results:There were no statistically significant differences in the detection rate and false detection rate of spherical nodules and irregular nodules at different tube voltages( P > 0.05), but there were and statistically significant with different noise indices ( F=10.57, 17.77, 9.33, P < 0.001). Different tube voltages had no statistical significance for CTDI vol and DLP ( P > 0.05), while different noise indices had statistical significance for CTDI vol and DLP ( F=59.87, 60.92, P < 0.001). The detection rates of nodules were moderately or weakly correlated with noise indices, CTDI vol and DLP ( r=0.43, 0.56, -0.58, -0.78, P<0.05), but no correlation with tube voltage ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Scanning protocol has an impact on AI detection efficiency of pulmonary nodules. Reasonable scanning parameters should be selected according to different image quality requirements in clinical practice.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To investigate the expression changes of MMP-12 during the long-term axon regeneration induced by the lens injury after the optic nerve clamp trauma in sprague-dawley(SD)rats.METHODS: The optic nerve injury model and lens injury model of SD rats were established, and the 24 experimental animals were divided into control group; lens injury group; optic nerve injury group; lens injury combined with optic nerve injury group, with 6 rats in each group. Reference transcriptome sequencing was used to analyze the expression changes of differentially expressed genes in the injured optic nerve region, and relevant differentially expressed genes with high expression were screened. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)were used to quantify the expression changes of matrix metalloproteinase-12(MMP-12)in the injured optic nerve region.RESULTS: The Principal Component Analysis of transcriptome sequencing indicated that lens injury combined with optic nerve injury was the principal component of gene expression change. Analysis of gene expression differences showed that the expression of MMP-12 gene was up-regulated in the lens injury combined with optic nerve injury group. The mRNA expression level of MMP-12 in the lens injury combined optic nerve injury group was up-regulated compared with the control group, the optic nerve injury group and the lens injury group at 14d and 21d after successful modeling(P<0.05). At 7, 28d, there was no difference in expression among all groups. The protein expression level of MMP-12 in the lens injury combined with optic nerve injury group was up-regulated compared with the control group and optic nerve injury group at 7, 14 and 21d after successful modeling(P<0.05), and it was up-regulated in the lens injury group combined with optic nerve injury group compared with optic nerve injury group at 21d(P<0.05). At 28d, there was no difference in expression among all groups.CONCLUSION: The up-regulated expression of MMP-12 may be involved in the long-term regeneration of the optic nerve after lens injury.

ABSTRACT

Methanol has become an attractive substrate for the biomanufacturing industry due to its abundant supply and low cost. The biotransformation of methanol to value-added chemicals using microbial cell factories has the advantages of green process, mild conditions and diversified products. These advantages may expand the product chain based on methanol and alleviate the current problem of biomanufacturing, which is competing with people for food. Elucidating the pathways involving methanol oxidation, formaldehyde assimilation and dissimilation in different natural methylotrophs is essential for subsequent genetic engineering modification, and is more conducive to the construction of novel non-natural methylotrophs. This review discusses the current status of research on methanol metabolic pathways in methylotrophs, and presents recent advances and challenges in natural and synthetic methylotrophs and their applications in methanol bioconversion.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To revise the 2017 classification of irreducible intertrochanteric fractures and summarize reduction techniques of 2021 classification.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 17 patients with irreducible intertrochanteric fracture who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, The Ninth People's Hospital of Shanghai, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from January 2015 to December 2019. They were 7 males and 10 females, with an age of (73.2 ± 16.1) years. On the basis of 2017 classification, the irreducible intertrochanteric fractures were classified into 2 types in the present 2021 classification. Type Ⅰ were interlocking fractures which were further classified into 3 subtypes: type ⅠA were sagittal interlocking ones (7 cases), type ⅠB greater trochanter interlocking ones (one case) and type ⅠC lesser trochanter interlocking ones (one case). Type Ⅱ were separating fractures which were further classified into 4 subtypes: type ⅡA were sagittal separating ones (4 cases), type ⅡB coronal separating ones (one case), type ⅡC rotational separating ones(one case) and type ⅡD complete separating ones (2 cases). All patients were treated by closed reduction and intramedullary nailing with different reduction strategies corresponding to their fracture types (application of ejector rods, clamps or prying techniques, etc.). A total of 132 patients with reducible femoral intertrochanteric fracture who had been admitted during the same period were selected as the control group. The fracture reduction time, intraoperative blood loss and Harris hip score at the last follow-up were compared between the 2 groups.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there was no significant difference in their preoperative general data ( P>0.05). Type ⅠA accounted for the highest proportion of irreducible intertrochanteric fractures [41.3% (7/17)], followed by type ⅡA [23.6% (4/17)]. The fracture reduction time [(44.6 ± 6.7) min] in the irreducible group was significantly longer than that in the control group [(39.2 ± 9.6) min] ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss or Harris hip score at the last follow-up between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the "2017 classification" , the "2021 classification" is more concise and easy to remember, and can directly prompt the corresponding proper fracture reduction techniques. The patients with irreducible intertrochanteric fracture using proper reduction techniques can obtain functional recovery similar to that in the patients with reducible intertrochanteric fracture after reduction and fixation.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effects of organ dose modulation (ODM) on image quality and radiation dose to lens during sinus CT scanning.Methods:The GE Revolution EVO CT was used to scan the anthropomorphic head with ODM turned off as the control group and ODM turned on as the observation group. With different parameter combinations of tube voltage (140, 120, 100 kV), noise index (N17, N18), pitch (0.531, 0.969 at 20 cm collimation width, 0.516, 0.984 at 40 mm collination width), 24 series of images were acquired respectively. The tube current (mA) valuesat the anterior (A), left (L), posterior (P) and right (R) positions, volume CT dose index (CTDI vol) and dose length product (DLP) were recorded. Average CT values (AV), standard deviation (SD), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), contrast to noise ratio (CNR) and image quality factor (FOM) of ROI were calculated. Double blind method was used to evaluate the edge sharpness, soft tissue level, noise and artifact on a subjective scale of 3 points. Results:For the combinations of different scanning parameters, the radiation dose of the observation group was lower than that of the control group. The tube current attheposition A for the observation group was lower than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.28, P<0.05). The differences oftube currentsatposotions of L, P and R, CTDI vol and DLP values in twogroupswere not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences in SD, SNR, CNR and FOM between the two groups of images ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the subjective scores of edge sharpness, soft tissue gradation, noise and artifacts between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:ODM technique can effectively reduce the radiation dose of eye lens without decompromising the image quality, which could meet the requirements of diagnosis, and accord with the principle of radiological protection optimization.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the clinical features, distribution of pathogenic bacteria, and drug resistance of bloodstream infection in children with acute leukemia.@*METHODS@#Clinical data of 93 blood culture-positive children with acute leukemia from January 2015 to December 2019 in Department of Pediatrics, The Second Hospital of Anhui Medical University were analyzed retrospectively.@*RESULTS@#In these 93 cases, 78 cases were in the period of neutrophil deficiency. There were 54 Gram-negative bacteria (G-) (58.1%) found through blood culture, and the top 4 strains were Escherichia coli (15.1%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (13.9%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (6.5%), and Enterobacter cloacae (6.5%). There were 39 Gram-positive bacteria (G+) (41.9%) detected, and the top 4 strains were Staphylococcus epidermidis (10.8%), Streptococcus pneumoniae (6.5%), Staphylococcus hemolyticus (5.4%), and Staphylococcus human (5.4%). Among 74 strains of pathogenic bacteria from acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) children, there were 29 strains of G+ bacteria (39.2%) and 45 strains of G- bacteria (60.8%). While in 19 strains from acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) patients, G- bacteria accounted for 47.4% and G+ bacteria accounted for 52.6%. In 15 ALL children without neutropenia, G+ bacteria made up the majority of the strains (66.7%). In the 93 strains of pathogenic bacteria, 13 (13.9%) strains were multidrug-resistant. Among them, extended-spectrum β-lactamases accounted for 42.9%, carbapenemase-resistant enzyme Klebsiella pneumoniae 15.4%, and carbapenemase-resistant enzyme Enterobacter cloacae strains 33.3%, which were detected from G- bacteria. While, 13.3% of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci accounted for 13.3% detected from G+ bacteria, but linezolid, vancomycin, teicoplanin Staphylococcus and Enterococcus resistant were not found. The average procalcitonin (PCT) value of G- bacteria infection was (11.02±20.282) ng/ml, while in G+ infection it was (1.81±4.911) ng/ml, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The mean value of C-reactive protein (CRP) in G- infection was (76.33±69.946) mg/L, and that in G+ infection was (38.34±57.951) mg/L. The prognosis of active treatment was good, and only one case died of septic shock complicated with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and gastrointestinal bleeding caused by carbapenemase-resistant enzyme enterobacteriaceae.@*CONCLUSION@#G- is the major bacteria in acute leukemia children with bloodstream infection, but the distribution of ALL and AML strains is different. G- bacteria dominates in ALL, while G+ bacteria and G- bacteria are equally distributed in AML. Non-agranulocytosis accompanied by bloodstream infections is dominant by G+ bacteria. The mean value of PCT and CRP are significantly higher in G- bacteria infection than in G+ bacteria.

ABSTRACT

Chaetocin is a natural metabolite product with various biological activities and pharmacological functions isolated from Chaetomium species fungi belonging to the thiodiketopyrazines. Numerous studies have demonstrated a wide range of antitumor activities of chaetocin in vitro and in vivo. Several studies have demonstrated that chaetocin sup?presses the growth and proliferation of various tumour cells by regulating multiple signalling pathways related to tumour initiation and progression, inducing cancer cell apoptosis (intrinsic and extrinsic), enhancing autophagy, inducing cell cycle arrest, as well as inhibiting tumour angiogenesis, invasion and migration. The antitumor effects and molecular mechanisms of chaetocin are reviewed and analysed in this paper, and the prospective applications of chaetocin in cancer prevention and therapy are also discussed. Our review provides the theoretical basis for exploiting the clinical applica?tion of chaetocin in cancer treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of different additional filters on the image quality and radiation dose in abdominaldigital radiography (DR).Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on 10 cases of abdominal DR from December 2020 to January 2021 in Fuxing Hospital, and the average mAs was calculated. Using automatic exposure control (AEC) technology, a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) slab of the corresponding thickness (18 cm) at the same output of above mAs was confirmed and used as the attenuator to simulate the abdomen. The phantom of CDRAD 2.0 and 17 slices of 10 mm thick PMMA plates (total thickness 18 cm) were placed on the bed. The additional filters were selected as no additional filter, 2 mmAl, 0.1 mmCu+ 1 mmAl, 0.1 mmCu+ 2 mmAl respectively. The AEC levels were selected at -2, -1, 0, 1, and 2 respectively. The images were collected and analyzed by using CDRAD 2.0 software to obtain the image quality factor (IQF inv). The incident air kinetic energy on the surface of the PPMA was measured for each exposure, and PCXMC software was used to estimate the organ dose and effective dose, and a comparative analysis was made. Results:The skin incident doses at no additional filter, 2 mmAl, 0.1 mmCu+ 1 mmAl, 0.1 mmCu+ 2 mm Al were (0.546 1±0.200 8), (0.376 2±0.133 8 ), (0.285 3±0.100 1) and (0.289 9±0.099 2) mGy, respectively. The estimated effective doses were (79.63±29.24)×10 -3, (71.05±25.56)×10 -3, (63.58±22.18)×10 -3 and (67.64±23.11)×10 -3 mSv, respectively. The gonadal doses were (0.058 1±0.020 8), (0.050 0±0.018 0), (0.044 8±0.015 6) and (0.047 7±0.016 3) mGy.The IQF inv values were 4.70±0.61, 4.80±0.84, 4.60±0.55, 4.60±0.60, respectively. There were linear correlations between the effective dose and the skin incident dose under different additional filtration, and the effective doses increased with the increase of the incident doses. The dose was lowest at the addition filtration of 0.1 mmCu+ 1 mmAl. There was no significant difference in the IQF inv between groups( P>0.05). Conclusions:The optimal additional filtration for abdominal DR was 0.1 mmCu+ 1 mmAl with the image quality meeting the requirements of clinical diagnosis, the radiation dose reduced reasonably, and the objective of the optimization of radiographic parameters achieved.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the effect of preoperative plasma D-dimer level on the risk of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI). Methods:The clinical data of patients who underwent cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2017 to December 2018 were collected retrospectively. All patients were distributed into two groups (normal D-dimer group with D-dimer level≤0.55 mg/L and elevated D-dimer group with D-dimer level>0.55 mg/L) according to the D-dimer threshold of 0.55 mg/L and the differences of clinical data between the two groups were compared. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis method was used to analyze the difference of the cumulative incidence of CSA-AKI between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis and restricted cubic splines analysis were used to analyze the association between serum D-dimer and the incidence of CSA-AKI. Results:There were 871 patients enrolled in the study with 427 females (49.0%) and age of (56.6±12.3) years, including 215 patients (24.7%) with high D-dimer and 259 patients (29.7%) with CSA-AKI. Compared with the normal D-dimer group, patients with elevated D-dimer had higher baseline serum creatinine, proportion of chronic kidney disease stage 3, international normalized ratio, fibrinogen, proportion of receiving renal replacement therapy and incidence of CSA-AKI (all P<0.05). The prothrombin time, operation time, extracorporeal circulation time, aortic occlusion time and hospital stay in the elevated D-dimer group were longer (all P<0.05), and the preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and hemoglobin levels were lower than those in the normal D-dimer group (both P<0.05). There was no statistical difference between the two groups in terms of age, gender, comorbid diseases, cardiac function classification, and hospital mortality (all P>0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival curve results showed that compared with the normal D-dimer group, the risk of CSA-AKI in the elevated D-dimer group was significantly increased (Log-rank χ2=14.227, P<0.001). The multivariate logistic regression showed that after adjusting variables including gender, age, diabetes mellitus, preoperative eGFR, cardiopulmonary bypass time and so on, the higher level of preoperative D-dimer (>0.55 mg/L) was still related to CSA-AKI ( OR=1.476, 95% CI 1.038-2.098, P=0.030). Restricted cubic splines analysis showed that the incidence of CSA-AKI raised when preoperative serum D-dimer concentration increased (non-linear P=0.262). Conclusion:Patients with high preoperative serum D-dimer have an increased risk of CSA-AKI.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the relationship of ventilatory efficiency to cardiac function, especially heart rate recovery after exercise for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods:From January, 2019 to December, 2020, 190 patients with COPD were recruited for Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing. The general condition, medical history and medication history, lung function test and parameters of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing were recorded. They were divided into normal group and delay group according to whether the heart rate decline more than twelve beats within a minute after Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing. Results:There were 89 patients (46.84%) in the delay group. Compared with the normal group, the delay group were older (Z = 2.282, P < 0.05), with less ratio of force exiratory volume in the first second in prediction (FEV1.0%) (Z = 3.626, P < 0.001), maximum power (t = 5.547, P < 0.001), breath reserve (BR) (t = 2.122, P < 0.05) and higher minimum ventilation equivalent of carbon dioxide (VE/VCO2nadir) (Z = 3.296, P = 0.001). Logistic regression showed that the COPD severity, VE/VCO2nadir and BR correlated with heart rate recovery. After adjusting for gender, age, body mass index and COPD severity, VE/VCO2nadir was an independent risk factor for delayed heart rate recovery (OR = 1.203, 95%CI 1.032 to 1.873, P = 0.004), and the best cut-off point was 33.15 (AUC = 0.6387, 95%CI 0.5595 to 0.7178, P = 0.001). Conclusion:The ventilatory inefficiency may increase the risk of abnormal heart rate recovery after exercise in COPD patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the value of combined measurement of urinary insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) and urinary metalloproteinase inhibitor-2 (TIMP-2) in the early diagnosis and prognosis of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI).Methods:From March 2018 to June 2018, cardiac surgery patients admitted to the cardiac macrovascular surgery department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were prospectively included, and the blood creatinine was monitored to observe the presence of acute kidney injury (AKI). The prognostic information of the patients was collected, including in-hospital dialysis, in-hospital death, complete recovery of kidney function at discharge, death in one year after surgery, and progression to chronic kidney disease. The levels of urine IGFBP7 and TIMP-2 at 6 h, 24 h and 48 h after cardiac surgery were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the urine creatinine (Cr) was also measured. Moreover, receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC) were plotted and the areas under the curves ( AUC) were calculated to evaluate the predictive value and prognostic value of urinary [TIMP-2]·[IGFBP7] (T*I for short) and urine T*I/urine Cr 2 in CSA-AKI. Results:A total of 74 patients with age of (58.43±10.91) years old and 47 males, were enrolled in this study, of which 24 cases (32.4%) had AKI and 10 cases (13.5%) had stage 2-3 AKI. Compared with the non-AKI group, the AKI group had significantly higher levels of urine T*I levels at 6 h and 24 h (both P<0.05). The AUC of T*I at 24 h predicting for AKI was 0.71(95% CI 0.59-0.81, P=0.001, cutoff value 0.020, sensitivity 79.2%, specificity 56.0%), while the AUC for stage 2-3 AKI was 0.85 (95% CI 0.75-0.92, P<0.001, cutoff value 0.083, sensitivity 70.0%, specificity 90.6%). Urinary T*I normalized for urinary creatinine excretion did not show better predictive value. In addition, of T*I at 24 h predicting for poor hospitalization outcome, renal recovery, and one year postoperative death, the AUC was 0.82(95% CI 0.71-0.90, P=0.001), 0.80(95% CI 0.66-0.86, P<0.001), and 0.81(95% CI 0.70-0.89, P=0.047), respectively. Conclusion:The combined detection of TIMP-2 and IGFBP7 in urine is expected to be a biomarker for early diagnosis of CSA-AKI and has certain clinical value in predicting the prognosis of CSA-AKI.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the current situation of suicidal self-injurious behavior in teenagers and analyze its influencing factors. Methods:From January to November 2020, a stratified sampling method was used to investigate 707 teenagers in Guangdong. The “questionnaire of health-related behaviors of Chinese teenagers” compiled by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention was used anonymously to investigate the current situation of suicidal self-injurious behavior of the teenagers. The chi-square test was used for univariate analysis, and logistic regression was used for multivariate analysis. Results:The incidence rate of suicidal self-injurious behavior was 14.57% (103/707). It was 13.31% (45/338) in males, 15.72% (58/369) in females, 13.83% (48/347) in junior high school students and 15.28% (55/360) in senior high school students. There was no statistical significance in the incidence of suicidal self-injurious behavior of teenagers between different genders, different learning stages, smoking or not, asexual behavior or not, gambling or not, and fighting or not (all P>0.05). The incidence of suicidal self-injurious behaviors in teenagers from single parent family, drunkenness, runaway, loneliness, under great study pressure, lovelorn, and mobile phone addiction was significantly higher (χ2=13.809, 10.852, 14.279, 11.451, 12.893, 22.905, 19.473, respectively. All P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that the following were main risk factors affecting the incidence of suicidal self-injurious behavior in teenagers: single parent family (OR=3.826, 95%CI: 1.402-7.501), drunkenness (OR=3.903, 95%CI: 1.512-7.368), runaway (OR=3.447, 95%CI: 1.669-7.715), loneliness (OR=3.613, 95%CI: 1.504-7.697), great study pressure (OR=3.712, 95%CI: 1.387-7.604), lovelorn(OR=4.125, 95%CI: 1.516-8.117) and mobile phone addiction(OR=4.027, 95%CI: 1.499-7.984 (all P<0.001). Conclusion:The incidence of suicidal self-injurious behavior in teenagers is not low in Guangdong, and targeted measures should be developed to screen and intervene based on the influencing factors.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the influencing factors in children with chronicity immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), and to provide basis for judging the prognosis and treatment in children with ITP.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of children with ITP admitted to The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University in the past 5 years were retrospectively analyzed and followed up for more than 1 year. According to the inclusion criteria, the eligible cases (328 cases in total) were selected and collected through medical record system retrieval, outpatient clinic and telephone follow-up. Independent influencing factors affecting the prognosis of children with ITP were obtained through single-factor and multi-factor logistic analysis, and their predictive value for the prognosis of ITP in children were evaluated.@*RESULTS@#Of 328 children with ITP, 208 were newly diagnosed with ITP (64%), 54 were persistent ITP (16%), 66 were chronic ITP (20%), and the remission rate within 1 year was 79.9%. The results of univariate analysis showed that, age, pre-morbidity history of infection and vaccination, antinuclear antibodies, initial absolute lymphocyte count(ALC) and treatment options were related to the prognosis of the children (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the history of infection and vaccination before onset, initial treatment options, and ALC at the time of initial diagnosis were independent factors affecting the prognosis of children with ITP (P<0.05). The time for platelet recovery to 100×10@*CONCLUSION@#The initial treatment plan combined with IVIG can reduce the occurrence of chronicity in children with ITP, and its efficacy is better than that of the single corticosteroids group (the platelet recovery time is shorter); history of preceding infection or vaccination, ALC at the time of initial diagnosis are independent factors affecting the prognosis of children with ITP, and the combination of the two shows a better predictive value for the prognosis.

ABSTRACT

Purpose@#The objective of the current study was to examine the potential effects of surgery start times (morning vs. afternoon) on the long-term prognosis of patients after hepatic resection (HR) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). @*Methods@#All eligible patients were divided into 2 groups according to the start time of surgery: group M (morning surgery, 8 AM–1 PM) and group A (afternoon surgery, 1 PM–6 PM). Clinicopathologic and surgical parameters, as well as oncologic outcomes were compared between the 2 groups. @*Results@#In total, 231 patients were included in the study. There was no difference in age, body mass index, comorbidities, tumor size, tumor location, tumor stages, surgical procedures, or surgical margin between morning and afternoon surgery (all P > 0.05). In contrast, patients in group M experienced longer operation duration than those in group A (median, 240 minutes vs. 195 minutes, P = 0.004). However, no differences of overall survival were observed between morning and afternoon surgery groups in the whole cohort or stratified by surgical margin (all P > 0.05). @*Conclusion@#Surgery start times during the work day have no measurable influence on patient outcome following curative HR for HCC, indicating good self-regulation and professional judgment of surgeons for progressive fatigue during surgery.
