Objective:To explore the risk factors of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in hospitalized rehabilitation patients.Method:Clinical data of 1 130 patients, 737 males and 393 females with the mean age of 63.0 (54.0, 73.0) years, admitted in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of the Second Hospital of Jiaxing from August 2021 to September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patient underwent vascular color ultrasound examination, DVT was detected in 194 cases (DVT group) and not detected in 936 cases (control group). The general clinical data, venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk stratification and traditional VTE risk factors of patients were documented. The risk factors of DVT formation were analyzed with multivariate logistic regression.Results:Compared with the control group, the DVT group had a higher proportion of patients with older age, longer length of hospital stay, and positive D-dimer (all P<0.001). The proportion of patients with high risk of VTE in the DVT group was 49.5% (96/194), which was higher than that in the control group (27.0% (253/936), P<0.01). The proportion of patients with age≥70 years, previous venous thromboembolism, and history of recent (≤1 month) trauma or surgery in the DVT group was significantly higher than that in the control group (all P<0.001). The proportion of patients with primary diagnoses of quadriplegia, hemiplegia or other motor disorders in the DVT group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that old age ( OR=1.014, 95% CI: 1.012-1.016), length of hospital stay ( OR=1.001, 95% CI: 1.001-1.002), positive D-dimer ( OR=2.508, 95% CI: 2.368-2.655), high risk of VTE ( OR=1.178, 95% CI: 1.10-1.250), quadriplegia ( OR=2.776, 95% CI: 2.552-3.021), hemiplegia ( OR=3.232, 95% CI: 2.996-3.488), motor disorders ( OR=2.308, 95% CI: 2.110-2.525), paraplegia ( OR=1.878, 95% CI: 1.622-2.175), previous venous thromboembolism ( OR=1.385, 95% CI: 1.314-1.460), history of recent (≤1 month) trauma or surgery ( OR=1.987, 95% CI: 1.886-2.093) (all P<0.001) were independent risk factors for DVT in rehabilitation inpatients. Conclusion:Age, length of hospital stay, primary diagnosis of quadriplegia, hemiplegia, paraplegia or other motor disorders, positive D-dimer, high risk of VTE, previous venous thromboembolism, and history of recent trauma or surgery are independent risk factors for DVT in rehabilitation specialty inpatients.

Objective@#To investigate the genotypes and prognosis of infants with definitive diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases during neonatal screening in Zhejiang Province from 2009 to 2021, so as to provide insights into the management of birth defects.@*Methods@#The medical records of infants with definitive diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases by tandem mass spectrometry during neonatal screening in Zhejiang Province from 2009 to 2021 were collected from the database created by Zhejiang Provincial Center for Neonatal Disease Screening. The prevalence, genotypes and prognosis of inherited metabolic diseases were analyzed. @*Results@#A total of 1 038 infants were definitively diagnosed with inherited metabolic diseases in Zhejiang Province from 2009 to 2021, with an overall incidence rate of 1/4 535. There were 400 infants with amino acid metabolic disorders (AAD), 342 infants with fatty acid oxidation metabolic disorders and 296 infants with organic acid metabolic disorders (OAD), with incidence of 1/11 767, 1/13 763 and 1\15 902, respectively. There were 32 types of diseases, including 13 types of AAD, 8 types of FAOD and 11 types of OAD identified, and phenylketonuria and tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency (PKU/BH4D), primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) and methylmalonic academia (MMA) were detected as the most common forms of AAD, FAOD and OAD, with incidence of 1/20 827, 1/24 262 and 1\49 030, respectively. A total of 789 infants received genetic testing (76.01%), and genetic testing was performed among 70.00% of infants with AAD, 83.04% of infants with FAOD and 76.01% of infants with OAD. The c.728G >A (p.R243Q) variant was the most common mutation in infants with PKU (29.17%), c.1400C>G (p.S467C) variant was the most common mutation in infants with PCD (33.46%), c.609G>A (p.W203X) variant was the most common mutation in infants with combined MMA (40.00%), and c.1663G>A (p.A555T) variant was the most common mutation in infants with MMA (17.86%). Among the 997 infants (96.05%) with successful follow-up, 973 infants (93.74%) had normal intelligence and physical developments, and 41 infants died (3.95%), including 9 deaths due to AAD, 15 deaths due to FAOD and 17 deaths due to OAD. @*Conclusions @#The incidence of PKU, PCD and MMA was high among infants with inherited metabolic diseases in Zhejiang Province from 2009 to 2021, with c.728G>A (p.R243Q), c.1400C>G (p.S467C) and c.609G>A (p.W203X) variants as common gene mutations, respectively. Most infants with inherited metabolic diseases had a favorable prognosis; however, the mortality of OAD was relatively high.
Résumé
Tooth agenesis is the most common form of congenital craniofacial dysplasia seen in stomatology clinics, which may be caused by genetic and/or environmental factors. Tooth development is regulated by a series of signaling pathways, and variants in any of these strictly balanced signaling cascades can result in tooth agenesis and/or other oral defects. Notably, variants of genes of the Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway are important cause for both non-syndromic and syndromic tooth agenesis. This article has provided a review for the molecular genetics of tooth agenesis associated with Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway, which may shed lights on the etiology and molecular mechanism of this disease.

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the basis for a child with multiple malformations and correlate her genotype with phenotype.@*METHODS@#The child was subjected to G-banding chromosomal analysis first, and low-coverage massively parallel copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) was used to define the aberrant region. The results were verified by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).@*RESULTS@#The child was found to have a karyotype of 46,XX,3pter+?. CNV-seq has identified a 13.5 Mb duplication at 10p13p15.3(60 466-13 556 655) and a 636 kb microdeletion at 3p26.3 (60 064-695 821). Her karyotype was the refore specified as 46, XX, ish der(3) t(3;10) (10p+,3pdim) by FISH. Both of her parents were normal, which suggested an de novo origin of the above variant.@*CONCLUSION@#The de novo 10p13p15.3 duplication probably underlies the mental retardation, development delay, dysmorphism, and gastroesophageal reflux in the child. The CHL1 gene from the 3p26.3 region may play an important role in the formation and function of the brain, which may underlie the intellectual deficit in this child.

Objective Secondary infection with pseudomonas aeruginosa( PA) in diabetic foot ulcer( DFU) was analyzed to investigate the related risk factor, antibiotic resistance, and prognoses of the infection. Methods Pathogen cultures were carried out in 966 DFU patients with their clinical data collected. All of the patients were followed-up for two years to observe the outcomes, including ulcer healing, amputation, recurrence of ulcers, non-fatal cardiovascular events, and death. The antibiotic susceptibility, risk factors and associated outcome of secondary PA infection were analyzed. Results Total incidence of PA infection was 13. 0% in DFU patients, of which 38. 1%was secondary. The susceptibility rates of secondary infected PA to tobramycin, meropenem, eftazidime, levofloxacin, cefepime, and cefepime were similar to those in primary infected PA. However, the susceptibility rates of secondary infected PA to piperacillin, piperacillin/tazobactam, ciprofloxacin, imipenen, gentamicin, aztreonam, and amikacin decreased by 12% to 22% as compared with primary infected PA. The healing rate was much lower in patients with secondary PA infection compared with those with primary PA infection, and the accumulated healing rates at2yearswere44.44% and70.4% (P=0.01) respectively. Theriskofulcerhealingfailurewithintwoyears increased by 3 folds in patients with secondary PA infection. After adjusting for age, sex, Wagner grade, infection grade, and duration of DFU, plasma albumin level was an independent risk factor for secondary PA infection in patients with DFU(P=0. 001). Conclusions The antibiotics susceptibility rates of secondary infected PA were lower than those of primary infected PA. Secondary PA infection in DFU was less likely to be healed. Plasma albumin level was a risk factor for secondary PA infection.

Objective To investigate the association of serum C peptide concentration with the severity and the outcome of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). Methods The clinical data of 257 inpatients with DFU were collected, including fasting and postprandial 2h C peptide levels and C peptide area under curve (AUCCP ). The patients were followed up on the outcomes of ulcers and death. The associations of serum C peptide concentration with the Wagner degree, infection severity, and healing rate were analyzed. Results The medians of fasting and 2h postprandial serum C peptide as well as AUCCP were 1. 37(0. 02 ~ 9. 00) nmol/ L, 3. 22(0. 02 ~ 29. 61) nmol/ L, and 511. 65 (3. 60 ~ 2 691. 30)nmol·min-1 ·L-1 respectively, which were lower than general levels. The time of follow-up in our study was 2. 8 (1. 0 ~ 5. 1) years. By the end of study, the wound of 75. 88% patients was healed, 3. 5%undergone major amputation, and 23. 74% died. After adjusting for relative factors, there were no significant associations of serum fasting and postprandial C peptide levels and AUCCP with Wagner degree and infection severity (P>0. 05). Cox regression analysis showed that the fasting plasma C peptide and hemoglobin were the independent protective factors for the healing of ulcers; old age, male, higher infection degree, and diabetes family history were their independent risk factors ( all P < 0. 05). Conclusions The lower plasma fasting C peptide concentration in patients with DFU is not correlated with Wagner degree and infection severity, but closely related with healing rate.
Résumé
Objective To explore any effect of combining urodynamic analysis with individualized bladder training in rehabilitating neurogenic bladder dysfunction after spinal cord injury.Methods Urology patients who had suffered a spinal cord injury were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group.Both groups were given routine drugs and intermittent catheterization based on a urodynamics analysis using the Laborie urodynamic analyzer.The experimental group also received individualized bladder training for eight weeks.The bladder balance time and urinary infection rate of both groups were recorded 2,4,6 and 8 weeks after the intervention.Results After treatment,all of the patients wcrc able to achieve bladder balance,but the average bladder balance time of the experimental group was significantly shorter than that of the patients in the control group with similar injuries.After 2,4,6 and 8 weeks the incidence of urinary infection in the experimental group was significantly lower than in the control group.Moreover,after the treatment the average bladder storage volume (VH2O),bladder compliance (BC),bladder pressure (Pves) and detrusor pressure (Pdet) of both groups were significantly better than before the treatment,but the results of the experimental group were,on average,significantly better than those in the control group.Conclusion Individualized bladder training can effectively promote bladder balance and reduce the risk of urinary infection after spinal cord injury.
