ABSTRACT

Objective:This study aimed to explore the status of radiological Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) among school-aged children in Chamdo City, Tibet, through a 3-year monitoring survey, providing epidemiological evidence for prevention and control strategies.Methods:The target areas for this study were Luolong, Bianba, and Basu counties in Chamdo City, Tibet Autonomous Region, identified as having the most severe historical cases of KBD. Children aged 7-12 years attending school were enrolled as study subjects. Anteroposterior X-ray films of the right-hand were taken, and radiological diagnoses were made based on the "Diagnosis of Kashin-Beck Disease" criteria (WS/T 207-2010). Two experienced researchers independently reviewed the X-rays, and intra- and inter-group consistency were assessed using weighted Kappa values and percentage agreement. Cross-sectional surveys were conducted in 2017 and 2020 to describe the X-ray detection rates of KBD, and logistic regression analysis was employed to construct a predictive model of risk factors for radiological KBD cases.Results:In 2017, a total of 5,711 children aged 7-12 years in Chamdo City, Tibet, participated in the baseline cross-sectional survey (average age 9.2 years, 48.0% female), with 28 cases of radiological KBD. The age- and gender-standardized prevalence rate was 0.527%. In 2020, 6,771 participants (average age 9.3 years, 49.5% female) underwent a second cross-sectional survey, with 9 cases of radiological KBD and a standardized prevalence rate of 0.134%. Logistic regression analysis indicated that older age [ OR=2.439, 95% CI(1.299, 4.580), P=0.006] and female gender [ OR=8.157, 95% CI(1.016, 65.528), P=0.048] were independent risk factors for radiological KBD cases. Conversely, higher residential altitude, under the premise of Tibet's high altitude, was a protective factor [ OR=0.995, 95% CI(0.990, 0.999), P=0.032). Conclusion:The radiographically positive detection rate of KBD among school-aged children in Chamdo City, Tibet Autonomous Region, is at an extremely low level and showing a declining trend, reaching the historical standard in 2020. Considering the absence of positive signs in affected children, it suggests that local KBD has been effectively eliminated.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System(BRICS)were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI). WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period,9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals,of which 7 895(87.4%)were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140(12.6%)were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli( n=4 510,49.9%), Klebsiella pneumoniae( n=2 340,25.9%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa( n=534,5.9%), Acinetobacter baumannii complex( n=405,4.5%)and Enterobacter cloacae( n=327,3.6%). The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%(2 095/4 452),21.0%(427/2 033)and 41.1%(58/141),respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli(CREC)and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)were 1.3%(58/4 510)and 13.1%(307/2 340);62.1%(36/58)and 9.8%(30/307)of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination,respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)complex was 59.5%(241/405),while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)was 18.4%(98/534). There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions,with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA( χ2=20.489 and 20.252, P<0.001). The prevalence of CREC,CRKP,CRPA,CRAB,ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals( χ2=11.953,81.183,10.404,5.915,12.415 and 6.459, P<0.01 or <0.05),while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions(per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan)than that in economically less-developed regions(per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan)( χ2=6.240, P=0.012). Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend,and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top,while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different,and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

ABSTRACT

In order to speed up the review and approval of new drugs of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in China, it is accelerating the construction of TCM registration review evidence system, which combines the theory of TCM, human experience and clinical trials, and optimizing the technical requirements for the review of and approval of new drugs of TCM based on ancient classic prescriptions, famous old Chinese medicine prescriptions, and medical institution preparations. The United States has strict requirements on the application for the marketing of herbal medicines. According to the characteristics of herbal medicines and combined with human experience, the European Union has classified registration management, reflecting the regulatory concept of inheritance and innovation. TCM has a long history of human use experience in China, its application has a scope of application, basic requirements, and it is necessary to classify and exempt the declaration materials according to the evidence grading evaluation standards. When the ethics committee reviews the research scheme of human experience of TCM, it should pay attention to the review points such as scientific basis for new drugs or prescriptions of TCM, clinical positioning, applicable population, effectiveness and safety information, research design, sample size, conflict of interest management and informed consent. Finally, Human experience is helpful to formulate the research scheme of new drugs of TCM, which can not only improve the success rate of research and development, but also reduces the cost of research and development, accelerate the marketing of new drugs of TCM, and can benefit more patients.

ABSTRACT

Originating but free from chromosomal DNA, extrachromosomal circular DNAs (eccDNAs) are organized in circular form and have long been found in unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes. Their biogenesis and function are poorly understood as they are characterized by sequence homology with linear DNA, for which few detection methods are available. Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies have revealed that eccDNAs play crucial roles in tumor formation, evolution, and drug resistance as well as aging, genomic diversity, and other biological processes, bringing it back to the research hotspot. Several mechanisms of eccDNA formation have been proposed, including the breakage-fusion-bridge (BFB) and translocation-deletion-amplification models. Gynecologic tumors and disorders of embryonic and fetal development are major threats to human reproductive health. The roles of eccDNAs in these pathological processes have been partially elucidated since the first discovery of eccDNA in pig sperm and the double minutes in ovarian cancer ascites. The present review summarized the research history, biogenesis, and currently available detection and analytical methods for eccDNAs and clarified their functions in gynecologic tumors and reproduction. We also proposed the application of eccDNAs as drug targets and liquid biopsy markers for prenatal diagnosis and the early detection, prognosis, and treatment of gynecologic tumors. This review lays theoretical foundations for future investigations into the complex regulatory networks of eccDNAs in vital physiological and pathological processes.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To investigate the effect of double plasma molecular adsorption system and sequential half-dose plasma exchange (DPMAS+HPE) on the short-term survival rate of patients with hepatitis B associated acute-on-chronic liver failure (HBV-ACLF). 【Methods】 Data on HBV-ACLF cases hospitalized in our hospital from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2022 were retrospectively collected, and were divided into standard comprehensive medical treatment group and DPMAS+HPE group according to different treatment methods. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to eliminate inter group confounding bias. The baseline data and improvement of laboratory indicators after treatment between two groups were compared. Death related risk factors in HBV-ACLF patients were screened by logistic regression analysis, and cumulative survival rates at 30 and 90 days between the two groups were compared by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. 【Results】 A total of 373 cases of HBV-ACLF were included in this study. Among them, 136 cases in the treatment group received DPMAS+HPE once on the basis of comprehensive internal medicine treatment, and 237 cases only received comprehensive internal medicine treatment. After PSM, 136 patients were included as the control group. The decrease in alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and total protein (TP) in the treatment group before and after treatment was significantly greater than that in the control group (446.5 vs 159.0, 317.0 vs 92.0,5.2 vs 0.3), with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). DPMAS+HPE treatment is an independent protective factor for mortality in HBV-ACLF patients at 30 and 90 days (30 days: OR=0.497, P<0.05; 90 days: OR= 0.436, P<0.05). The cumulative survival rates at 30 and 90 days in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (30 days: 50.71% vs 44.12%, P<0.05; 90 days: 30.15% vs 22.79%, P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 DPMAS+HPE improves the short-term prognosis of HBV-ACLF patients and can serve as an effective artificial liver model for the treatment of HBV-ACLF patients.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To explore the timing of surgical drainage for ureteral calculi with upper urinary tract infection. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 117 cases of ureteral calculi with upper urinary tract infection treated in our hospital during Jan.2018 and Jan.2020 were retrospectively analyzed. According to different treatment methods, the patients were divided into surgical drainage group and non-surgical drainage group. The patients’ age, gender, side of calculi, peak body temperature, time of onset, white blood cell (WBC) count, C-reactive protein (CRP) and other clinical indicators were compared between the two groups. The cutoff value of surgical drainage was determined with receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve. 【Results】 The patients’ age, peak body temperature, WBC count and CRP level were the influencing factors of surgical drainage (P<0.05). Regression analysis showed that CRP (P<0.001), age (P=0.003) and WBC count (P=0.014) were independent risk factors for surgical drainage. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of CRP, age, and WBC count were 0.923, 0.601, and 0.796, respectively. The cutoff value of CRP was 29.87 mg/L (sensitivity 79.4%, specificity 90.0%). Logistic regression model showed CRP was a significant clinical predictor. 【Conclusion】 Ureteral calculi with upper urinary tract infection need to be diagnosed and treated in time. Positive anti-infection should be performed during emergency treatment, and surgical drainage could be selected according to the value of CRP.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo explore the variation rules and health risks of trihalomethane in regional drinking water, and to provide evidence for the innovative water processing technology and the optimization of drinking water quality. MethodsBased on regional drinking water sanitation monitoring, non-parametric rank sum test was used to analyze the effects of residual trihalomethane production in different periods and with disinfection methods. The United States environmental protection agency (USEPA) classic "four-step" health risk assessment model was used to evaluate the carcinogenic risk and non-carcinogenic risk of trihalomethane through drinking water exposure. ResultsThe yield of trichloromethane in wet season was 6.3 μg·L-1, which was higher than that in dry season. Compared with chlorination pretreatment, ozone pretreatment reduced the content of bromomethane dichloromethane. Compared to liquid chlorine disinfection, sodium hypochlorite treatment incresed the levels of trichloromethane and bromomethane chloride. Although the total carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risks of trihalomethane in drinking water in the region were at safe levels, they were above the acceptable limits occasionally. The highest carcinogenic risk of trihalomethane were dichlorobromomethane and chlorodibromomethane,and the highest non-carcinogenic risk was trichloromethane. The health risk of children was 1.2 times higher than that for adults. ConclusionThe production of residual trihalomethane in drinking water in this area is relatively low, which is less harmful to the health of adults and children. Monitoring, including other disinfection byproducts, should continue and appropriate disinfection techniques for drinking water should be explored.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To measure and analyze the shoulder circumferences of adults' permanent teeth crown preparations based on data collected through the intraoral scanning, so as to provide dental anatomy data for clinical diagnosis and analysis. Methods: Intraoral scanning data of 840 complete crown preparations were collected, and were entrusted to the World Dental Laboratory Co., Ltd. in Fuzhou between March 2021 and June 2022. Except the data of the third molar, the rest data were categorized in terms of 14 tooth positions in the upper and lower jaw (each category involved 30 samples from male group and 30 samples from female group). Image measurement software was used to measure the shoulder circumferences of permanent teeth crown preparations. And analysis was conducted to reveal the difference of shoulder circumference diameters between male and female groups. And then they were grouped according to the mean value at each tooth position, on the premise that the difference between the maximum and minimum values and the mean value of the entire group was≤±1.00 mm. Analysis were further conducted to determine the differences of shoulder circumference diameters between each dental position and the differences between male and female in the same groups. Results: Bivariate analysis of variance showed that gender had no effect on the shoulder circumference of full crown preparations (F=0.55, P=1.457), while tooth position had a significant impact on the shoulder circumference of full crown preparations (F=273.15, P<0.001). The samples were classified into 5 groups according to the mean values of shoulder circumference diameters relating to each tooth position. Statistical analysis showed that Group 1, covering maxillary lateral incisor, mandibular central incisor and mandibular lateral incisor, had shoulder circumference with diameters of (16.62±2.21) mm; Group 2, consisting of maxillary central incisor, maxillary cusp, mandibular cusp, mandibular first premolar and mandibular second premolar, had diameters of (20.78±2.48) mm; Group 3, consisting of maxillary first premolar and maxillary second premolar, had diamerters of (22.09±2.72) mm; Group 4, covering maxillary first molar, maxillary second molar and mandibular first molar, had diamerters of (30.21±2.67) mm; while group 5, with mandibular second molar alone its member, had diamerters of (31.34±3.18) mm. The difference among the 5 groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions: Significant differences of shoulder circumference diameters could be found between different tooth positions, while at the same tooth position, the differences between male and female are not significant. The 14 tooth positions could be grouped into 5 groups according to their shoulder circumference diameters. Future research could take the grouping as reference.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to investigate change of platelet count in red blood cell (RBC) units at different storage periods and explore the efficiency of platelet removal by leukocyte filter. MethodsA total of 58 RBC units were divided into four groups according to different storage periods: 1 week Group (16), 2 weeks Group (16), 3 weeks Group (14) and 4 weeks Group (12). RBC units in the four groups were filtered through leukocyte filter. The RBC samples before and after filtration were obtained. The platelet count was detected by automatic blood cell counter and the efficiency of platelet removal was calculated. RBC samples before filtration were made into blood cell smears. The blood cell smears were dyed with Wright-Giemsa stain, and the morphology of platelets was observed through a microscope. ResultsThe platelet count in RBC units stored for 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks was (286.5±62.34)×109/L, (238.0±57.37)×109/L, (193.6±56.21)×109/L and (167.8±24.76)×109/L, respectively. Platelet count in blood stored for 3 weeks (P<0.01) and 4 weeks (P <0.000 1) were significantly lower than those stored for 1 weeks. When observed in the blood smears of RBC units at different storage periods, platelets with normal morphology were distributed in clump and scattered style. The platelet removal rates of the four groups were (80.13±9.06) %, (76.41±10.13) %, (77.78±9.30) % and (70.63±9.39) %, respectively, with no significant difference (P >0.05). ConclusionsPlatelet count in RBC units decreases gradually as the storage period increases, but most platelets still remain in RBC units of late storage periods (3 weeks and 4 weeks). The leukocyte filter is able to remove most of the platelets, and the removal efficiency is similar among the groups.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the impact of short-term variability in fasting blood glucose (FPG) on the recent major cardiovascular adverse events (MACE) in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with different levels of glycated hemoglobin (HbA 1c) . Methods:Retrospective analysis was made on the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who underwent emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) due to STEMI from January 2016 to March 2020 in Shenzhen Hospital, Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. The patients were divided into HbA 1c compliant group (<6.5%) and non-compliant group (≥6.5%). The blood glucose variability indexes defined included FPG variability score (FPG-VS), variability index independent of FPG mean (VIM) and mean fast plasma glucose (FPG-M). The logistic regression model was used to evaluate the relationship between different HbA 1c levels, blood glucose variability risk indicators, and MACE. Results:A total of 612 patients were ultimately included in the analysis. The blood glucose variability indicators (FPG-VS, VIM) of the HbA 1c non-compliant group (302 cases) were higher than those of the compliant group (310 cases): [FPG-VS: (0.7±0.3) vs (0.4±0.4), P<0.001, VIM: (0.4±0.2) vs (0.3±0.2), P<0.001], while there was no statistically significant difference in FPG-M between the two groups [(7.9±3.2) vs (8.0±3.9), P=0.221]. In the HbA 1c non-compliant group, the correlation between FPG-VS, VIM, and FPG-M and the risk of MACE within 30 days was 0.89(95% CI: 0.69-1.15), 1.21(95% CI: 0.65-2.25), and 1.06(95% CI: 0.97-1.16), respectively (all P>0.05). In the HbA 1c compliant group, FPG-VS was associated with an increase in MACE risk within 30 days ( P=0.04): for each increase in FPG variation ≥1 mmol/L, after multiple factor adjustment, the risk of MACE increased by 8% within 30 days ( OR=1.08, 95% CI: 0.71-1.65); Compared with FPG-VS<20%, FPG-VS≥80% increased the risk of MACE within 30 days by 33% ( OR=1.33, 95% CI: 0.21-8.25, P<0.01), while the correlation between VIM and FPG-M and the risk of MACE within 30 days was 1.65(95% CI: 0.96-2.83) and 1.15(95% CI: 0.98-1.35), respectively (all P>0.05). Conclusions:High FPG-VS is associated with the recent MACE risk in STEMI patients who do not meet HbA 1c standards. After reaching HbA 1c standards, FPG-VS remains an independent MACE risk factor.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical bacterial isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2021.Methods:The clinical bacterial strains isolated from blood culture from member hospitals of Blood Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System (BRICS) were collected during January 2021 to December 2021. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). WHONET 5.6 was used to analyze data.Results:During the study period, 11 013 bacterial strains were collected from 51 hospitals, of which 2 782 (25.3%) were Gram-positive bacteria and 8 231 (74.7%) were Gram-negative bacteria. The top 10 bacterial species were Escherichia coli (37.6%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (18.9%), Staphylococcus aureus (9.8%), coagulase-negative Staphylococci (6.3%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3.6%), Enterococcus faecium (3.6%), Acinetobacter baumannii (2.8%), Enterococcus faecalis (2.7%), Enterobacter cloacae (2.5%) and Klebsiella spp (2.1%). The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus aureus were 25.3% and 76.8%, respectively. No glycopeptide- and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci was detected; more than 95.0% of Staphylococcus aureus were sensitive to ceftobiprole. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci strains were detected. The rates of extended spectrum B-lactamase (ESBL)-producing isolated in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis were 49.6%, 25.5% and 39.0%, respectively. The prevalence rates of carbapenem-resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 2.2% and 15.8%, respectively; 7.9% of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae was resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination. Ceftobiprole demonstrated excellent activity against non-ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Aztreonam/avibactam was highly active against carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The prevalence rate of carbapenem-resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii was 60.0%, while polymyxin and tigecycline showed good activity against Acinetobacter baumannii (5.5% and 4.5%). The prevalence of carbapenem-resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 18.9%. Conclusions:The BRICS surveillance results in 2021 shows that the main pathogens of blood stream infection in China are gram-negative bacteria, in which Escherichia coli is the most common. The MRSA incidence shows a further decreasing trend in China and the overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is low. The prevalence of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is still on a high level, but the trend is downwards.

ABSTRACT

Clinical data of 15 patients diagnosed with acute renal infarction (ARI) in Affiliated Zhongshan Hospital of Dalian University from Jan 2011 to Dec 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Of the included 15 patients, there were 14 cases of cardiac origin and 1 case of antiphospholipid syndrome. We found that there were 12 cases of atrial fibrillation, 2 cases of atrial premature beats, 12 cases of elevated level of D-dimer, 15 cases of elevated level of LDH, 11 cases of positive urine occult blood and positive urine protein. Among the 15 patients, catheter-directed thrombolysis was performed in 4 cases, of which 3 cases were revascularized successfully, intravenous thrombolysis in 2 cases and alone anticoagulation therapy in 9 cases. It is suggested that CECT or CTA can assist the early diagnosis of ARI especially in patients with acute onset and persistent abdominal pain with high risk factors of thromboembolism, high levels of LDH, microscopic hematuria and/or proteinuria. Despite prolonged embolic ischemia, try to reconstruct blood flow to save the kidney as much as possible. Late standardized anticoagulant therapy is of critical importance to prevent recurrent embolic episodes.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the lipid levels, adverse perinatal outcome and their correlation in Tibetan pregnant women in high altitudes in late pregnancy.Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on clinical and laboratory data of 523 Tibetan singleton pregnant women who delivered after 28 weeks at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Chaya People's Hospital, Changdu City. The subjects were divided into three groups according to the altitude of their long-term residence, including altitude<3 500 m (Group A, n=161), altitude ≥3 500 m and <4 000 m (Group B, n=203) and altitude≥4 000 m (Group C, n=159). In addition, the subjects were also grouped into high TG group (TG≥3.23 mmol/L, n=80) and control group (TG<3.23 mmol/L, n=443). The baseline information, levels of lipid and perinatal outcome were compared among Group A,B and C, and also between the high TG and control group, respectively, using Mann-whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, LSD- t, Chi-square test, or Fisher exact test. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was also applied to analyze the correlation between hypertriglyceridemia and adverse perinatal outcome. Results:The maternal age, gravidity and parity, body mess index, blood pressure on admission and total cholesterol (TC), TG, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C), TG/HDL-C ratio and LDL-C/HDL-C ratio in late pregnancy and the occurrence of adverse perinatal outcome did not show any significant differences among Group A, B and C (all P>0.05). However, the hemoglobin (Hb) level increased with the elevation of altitude as expected, and that in Group C was higher than that in Group A and B [121.0 g/L (108.0-132.0 g/L) vs 115.0 g/L (103.5-128.0 g/L) and 117.0 g/L (101.0-127.0 g/L), H=2.37 and 1.97, both P<0.05]. The proportion of women with hypertriglyceridemia, the high TG group, in late pregnancy was 15.3% (80/523), and no significant difference was found in HDL-C or Hb levels between the high TG and control group [1.7 mmol/L (1.5-2.0 mmol/L) vs 1.8 mmol/L (1.5-2.1 mmol/L), Z=-1.51;123.5 g/L (110.0-131.8 g/L) vs 117.0 g/L (104.0-128.0 g/L), Z=1.69; both P>0.05]. Higher rates of cesarean section [13.8% (11/80) vs 6.6% (29/443), χ2=4.98], hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) [16.3% (13/80) vs 7.5% (33/443), χ2=6.54], preeclampsia (PE) [8.8% (7/80) vs 1.6% (7/443), χ2=13.37], hyperglycemia during pregnancy [11.3%( 9/80) vs 3.6% (16/443), χ2=8.69], preterm birth (PB) [7.5% (6/80) vs 2.0% (9/443), χ2=7.27], microsomia [5.0% (4/80) vs 0.9% (4/443), Fisher exact test] and neonatal asphyxia [8.8%(7/80) vs 2.5% (11/443), χ2=8.01] were observed in the high TG group than in the control group (all P<0.05). Regarding the pregnant women at different altitude, TG was negatively correlated with Hb ( r=-0.17, P=0.037) only in Group C .Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed higher risk of HDP ( OR=2.42,95% CI:1.17-5.00), PE ( OR=5.25, 95% CI:1.73-16.00), hyperglycemia during pregnancy ( OR=3.77, 95% CI:1.56-9.09), PB ( OR=4.33, 95% CI:1.42-13.22), microsomia ( OR=4.33, 95% CI:1.42-13.22), neonatal asphyxia ( OR=3.45, 95% CI:1.27-9.35) and fetal demise ( OR=4.94, 95% CI:1.01-24.21) in women with high TG level in late pregnancy (all P<0.05). Conclusions:There were no differences in adverse perinatal outcomes or serum lipid levels in late pregnancy among women living at different high altitudes. However, hypertriglyceridemia at the third trimester is closely associated with the incidence of HDP, PE, hyperglycemia during pregnancy, PB, microsomia, neonatal asphyxia and fetal demise in this group of women.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical effect of radical endoscopic sinus surgery(RESS)in the treatment of eosinophilic chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps(EosCRSwNP).METHODS There were 84 EosCRSwNP patients admitted to the Department of Otolaryngology in Tianjin Beichen Hospital from January,2020 to January,2022.They were divided into an observation group(42 cases)and a control group(42 cases)according to the random number table method.The control group and the observation group received functional endoscopic sinus surgery(FESS)and RESS respectively.The nasal visual analogue score(VAS)and Lund-Kennedy score were compared before surgery and in 1,3,and 12 months after surgery,and the olfactory threshold in 6 months before and after surgery,Ciliary clearance rate,ciliary clearance rate,and serum interleukin-1β(IL-1β),IL-35 and squamous cell carcinoma antigen(SCCA)levels were compared between the two groups.The recurrence rates in 12 months between the two groups after surgery.RESULTS The VAS and Lund-Kennedy scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group in 12 months after surgery(P<0.01);The olfactory threshold and serum IL-1β in 6 months after surgery,the level of SCCA of the observation group was lower than those of the control group(P<0.01),and the Cilia clearance speed,the clearance rate and serum IL-35 level were higher than those of the control group(P<0.01).The recurrence rate in 12 months of the observation group was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION RESS is beneficial for reducing nasal VAS and Lund-Kennedy scores,alleviating nasal inflammation,restoring olfactory and nasal mucosal function,and reducing postoperative recurrence rate.It can be used as the optimal surgical plan for EosCRSwNP.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the risk factors affecting the delay of recovery in patients under general anesthesia.Methods:Patients who underwent radical mastectomy for breast cancer in our hospital from Jul. 2020 to Aug. 2022 were selected as the research objects, and the effective data of 80 patients were obtained after screening. The patients were divided into the non-delayed recovery group (54 cases) and the delayed recovery group (26 cases). The general conditions and perioperative data of the two groups were compared, and the high-risk factors affecting delayed recovery from anesthesia were analyzed using the Logistic hazard proportional regression model. Results:In general, there were no significant differences in body mass index, hypertension, diabetes, tumor size, tumor subtype, tumor location, or tumor stage between the non-delayed awakening group and the delayed awakening group (all P>0.05). The average age of patients in the wake-up delay group was (53.28±11.01), the proportion of anemia was 42.30% (11/26), and the proportion of ASA Ⅱ patients was 76.92% (20/26) compared with the average age of the non-wake-up delay group (46.89±6.91) ( t=3.17, P=0.002), the proportion of anemia was 20.37% (11/54) ( χ2=3.17, P=0.040), the proportion of ASA Ⅱ patients was 27.78% (15/54) ( χ2=17.22, P<0.001), which was significantly increased. In the perioperative data, there was no statistical significance in the intraoperative combined epidural anesthesia between the non-delayed recovery group and the delayed recovery group (all P>0.05). The data of the patients in the delayed recovery group, including average intraoperative blood loss (234.14±32.28), operation time (229.47±29.84), anesthesia time (246.14±35.64) and intraoperative compound sevoflurane inhalation accounted for 69.23% (18/26) ,which were significantly increased compared with the data of non-delayed recovery group following, including the average intraoperative blood loss (215.48±29.54) ( t=2.57, P=0.012), operation time (206.35±27.41) ( t=3.43, P=0.001), anesthesia time (215.61±28.54) ( t=4.13, P<0.001), intraoperative compound sevoflurane inhalation (44.44%, 24/54). Through Logistic hazard ratio regression analysis, it was found that age ( OR=1.15, 95% CI: 1.05-1.30, P=0.008), ASA Ⅱ grade ( OR=9.49, 95% CI: 2.05-60.94, P=0.008), intraoperative bleeding volume ( OR=1.04, 95% CI: 1.01-1.08, P=0.012), operation time ( OR=1.05, 95% CI: 1.01-1.08, P=0.009), and anesthesia time ( OR=1.04, 95% CI: 1.02-1.07, P=0.004) were high-risk factors affecting the delayed recovery from anesthesia. Conclusion:Increasing age, high grade of ASA, heavy intraoperative blood loss, long operation time and anesthesia time are independent risk factors affecting delayed recovery from anesthesia.

ABSTRACT

Currently, breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer of all malignant tumor worldwide. Notably, the poor survival outcome of patients with metastatic breast cancer remains to be solved. With the exploration of molecular targeted therapy, the application of antibody drug conjugate (ADC) in cancer has attracted extensive attentions. ADC represents a class of therapeutics with combination of an antibody targeting a specific antigen and a toxic payload conjugated with the antibody via a linker. The monoclonal antibody of an ADC enables it to specifically bind to the targeted tumor cell surface. Upon binding, the ADC is internalized and trafficked to lysosomes, from where the cytotoxic drug is released within the cell, thus resulting in the cell death. Here, we presented the results of clinical trials evaluating trastuzumab duocarmazine, trastuzumab deruxtecan and sacituzumab govitecan in different treatment settings for breast cancer patients. It is necessary for clinicians to deeply understand the mechanism and clinical efficacy or safety of different ADCs when formulating treatment plans for breast cancer patients.

ABSTRACT

According to different biological functions, breast cancer can be divided into triple-negative breast cancer and non-triple-negative breast cancer. The former has stronger proliferation and invasion ability and faster metastasis. Its immune tissue indicators are estrogen receptor (estrogen receptor, ER) and progesterone receptor. Both the body (progesterone receptor,PR) and human epidermal growth factor 2 receptor (human epidermal growthFactor receptor, HER2) are negative. Surgery and radiotherapy are traditional therapies for TNBC, but these therapies have many side effects and poor prognosis. In order to better prevent the spread and treatment of TNBC, it is particularly important to study the growth, proliferation and apoptosis mechanisms of cancer cells. In recent years, studies have shown that a variety of signaling pathways, lncRNA, and miRNA all affect the growth process of TNBC. In recent years, studies have shown that a variety of signaling pathways, lncRNA, and miRNA all affect the growth process of TNBC. This article reviews domestic and foreign studies on the relevant regulatory mechanisms of TNBC cell proliferation and apoptosis, aiming to clarify the importance of breast cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis pathways, and provide new ideas for drug development for TNBC targeted therapy.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the cumulative doses after two planned radiotherapy treatments for non-small cell lung cancer with direct superposition,rigid superposition and deformation superposition.Methods Twenty-four non-small cell lung cancer patients undergoing radical radiotherapy at some hospital were selected,who went through simulation positioning and radiotherapy treatment with modified plan after receiving 20 radiotherapy sessions.The cumulative dose after two planned radiotherapy treatments was calculated and compared with three methods including direct superposition,rigid superposition of Monaco treatment planning system and deformation superposition of MIM software.Results Direct superposition had the target dose the highest among those calculated by the three methods,followed by rigid superposition and deformation superposition in turn,and both rigid superposition and deformation superposition had significant differences with direct superposition(all P<0.05).Among the three methods direct superposition had the V5,V10 and V15 of lung and Dmean of heart and esophagus the lowest,the V20 of lung similar to that by deformation superposition while lower than that by rigid superposition and the remained indexes the highest;of the cumulative doses calculated by rigid superposition only the V5 of lung and Dmean of heart were lower than those by deformation superposition.Pairwise comparisons between the three methods showed only the differences between the Dmax of esophagus were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Conclusion The three superposition methods have differences when used to calculate the dose-volume parameters of the target areas and organs at risk,and different superposition methods have to be taken into considerations during clinical operations to avoid over-or under-assessment of the doses to tumor and normal tissue.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2023,44(10):49-54]
