Effect of family integrated ward on maintaining optimal oxygen saturation targets in premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia: a single-center retrospective cohort study / 中国新生儿科杂志

Objective:To study the application effect of family integrated ward in maintaining the optimal target pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2) in premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. Premature infants with BPD admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from June 2019 to January 2022 were enrolled. Based on whether to stay in family integrated ward and implement family integrated care (FICare), these premature infants were divided into the family ward group and the control group. The ratio of optimal target SpO 2 within 24 h before discharge, the duration of home oxygen therapy, and ratio of readmission due to respiratory disease within 6 months after discharge were analyzed between the two groups. Results:During the study period, a total of 167 premature infants with BPD were admitted, including 101 in the family ward group and 66 in the control group. Compared with the control group, the family ward group showed a higher proportion of achieving the optimal target SpO 2 within 24 h before discharge (58.0% vs. 24.0%), shorter duration for home oxygen therapy (7.0 d vs. 12.0 d), and a lower readmission rate within 6 months after discharge (16.5% vs. 30.2%), which had statistically significant difference (all P<0.05). Further regression analysis showed that participating in the family integrated ward significantly reduced the demand for home oxygen therapy and the duration of home oxygen therapy, but had no significant impact on the readmission rate within 6 months after discharge. Conclusions:Family integrated ward can effectively increase the proportion of achieving the optimal target SpO 2 for premature infants with BPD within 24 h before discharge, reduce the demand for home oxygen therapy, and shorten the time of home oxygen therapy after discharge, which is beneficial for improving the living quality of premature infants with BPD.

A hnRNPA2B1 agonist effectively inhibits HBV and SARS-CoV-2 omicron in vivo

The twenty-first century has already recorded more than ten major epidemics or pandemics of viral disease, including the devastating COVID-19. Novel effective antivirals with broad-spectrum coverage are urgently needed. Herein, we reported a novel broad-spectrum antiviral compound PAC5. Oral administration of PAC5 eliminated HBV cccDNA and reduced the large antigen load in distinct mouse models of HBV infection. Strikingly, oral administration of PAC5 in a hamster model of SARS-CoV-2 omicron (BA.1) infection significantly decreases viral loads and attenuates lung inflammation. Mechanistically, PAC5 binds to a pocket near Asp49 in the RNA recognition motif of hnRNPA2B1. PAC5-bound hnRNPA2B1 is extensively activated and translocated to the cytoplasm where it initiates the TBK1-IRF3 pathway, leading to the production of type I IFNs with antiviral activity. Our results indicate that PAC5 is a novel small-molecule agonist of hnRNPA2B1, which may have a role in dealing with emerging infectious diseases now and in the future.

Objective: To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of the implantable ventricular assist system EVAHEART I in clinical use. Methods: Fifteen consecutive patients with end-stage heart failure who received left ventricular assist device therapy in Fuwai Hospital from January 2018 to December 2021 were enrolled in this study, their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Cardiac function, liver and kidney function, New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification, 6-minute walk distance and quality of life were evaluated before implantation and at 1, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months after device implantation. Drive cable infection, hemolysis, cerebrovascular events, mechanical failure, abnormally high-power consumption and abnormal pump flow were recorded during follow up. Results: All 15 patients were male, mean average age was (43.0±7.5) years, including 11 cases of dilated cardiomyopathy, 2 cases of ischemic cardiomyopathy, and 2 cases of valvular heart disease. All patients were hemodynamically stable on more than one intravenous vasoactive drugs, and 3 patients were supported by preoperative intra aortic balloon pump (IABP). Compared with before device implantation, left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) was significantly decreased ((80.93±6.69) mm vs. (63.73±6.31) mm, P<0.05), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), total bilirubin and creatinine were also significantly decreased ((3 544.85±1 723.77) ng/L vs. (770.80±406.39) ng/L; (21.28±10.51) μmol/L vs. (17.39±7.68) μmol/L; (95.82±34.88) μmol/L vs. (77.32±43.81) μmol/L; P<0.05) at 1 week after device implantation. All patients in this group were in NYHA class Ⅳ before implantation, and 9 patients could recover to NYHA class Ⅲ, 3 to class Ⅱ, and 3 to class Ⅰ at 1 month after operation. All patients recovered to class Ⅰ-Ⅱ at 6 months after operation. The 6-minute walk distance, total quality of life and visual analogue scale were significantly increased and improved at 1 month after implantation compared with those before operation (P<0.05). All patients were implanted with EVAHEART I at speeds between 1 700-1 950 rpm, flow rates between 3.2-4.5 L/min, power consumption of 3-9 W. The 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year survival rates were 100%, 87%, and 80%, respectively. Three patients died of multiple organ failure at 412, 610, and 872 d after surgery, respectively. During long-term device carrying, 3 patients developed drive cable infection on 170, 220, and 475 d after surgery, respectively, and were cured by dressing change. One patient underwent heart transplantation at 155 d after surgery due to bacteremia. Three patients developed transient ischemic attack and 1 patient developed hemorrhagic stroke events, all cured without sequelae. Conclusion: EVAHEART I implantable left heart assist system can effectively treat critically ill patients with end-stage heart failure, can be carried for long-term life and significantly improve the survival rate, with clear clinical efficacy.

Advances on the research and treatment of autoimmune disease-related chronic wounds / 中华烧伤杂志

Autoimmune disease is a disease caused by the body's immune system being misdirected to attack the host itself. Patients with this type of diseases are in poor general condition, and are affected by vascular and skin tissue lesions, and therapeutic drugs. Once the skin is broken, chronic wounds that do not heal could easily develop. This type of wounds is difficult to treat and requires joint diagnosis and treatment of multidisciplinary physicians. Therefore, this article reviews the advances on research and treatment of autoimmune disease-related chronic wounds in order to provide reference for their clinical treatment.

Analysis of factors influencing postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery in patients undergoing hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy / 上海交通大学学报（医学版）

Objective · To investigate the effect of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy on postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery in patients with gastrointestinal cancer. Methods · Sixty-two cases of gastrointestinal cancer patients were enrolled who accepted cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in Department of General Surgery, Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center, Fudan University, from July 2014 to June 2017. The gastrointestinal function of patients were evaluated according to the I-FEED scoring system. The patients were divided into normal recovery group (I-FEED score＜6, n=38) and delayed recovery group (I-FEED score ≥ 6, n=24). Univariate and multivariate Logistic analyses were performed on characteristic factors that may affect the recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal function including gender, age, presence of diabetes, preoperative albumin, and so on. Results · There were significantly differences in the preoperative serum albumin level (P=0.040), intraoperative bleeding (P=0.044), the time of extraction of the peritoneal cavity drainage tube (P=0.026), the time of urethral tube extraction (P=0.021) and the time of hospitalization (P=0.017) in the two groups of patients with normal or delayed gastrointestinal function recovery. Multivariate Logistic regression results suggested that preoperative serum albumin level may be beneficial for the recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal function (OR=0.84, 95％ CI 0.17-4.27, P=0.041).Conclusion · The preoperative serum albumin level can be used as an independent predictor of postoperative gastrointestinal functional recovery in patients with gastrointestinal cancer after cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

Retrospective study on the influencing factors of lacrimal canalicular rupture repair / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

@#AIM:To analyze and compare the influence of different injury sites and injury types on surgical repair of canalicular laceration.<p>METHODS: A retrospective study was conducted on 87 cases(87 eyes)of traumatic canalicular laceration from January 2016 to August 2017, who were treated with silicone lacrimal drainage tube implantation. Lacrimal irrigation were performed 3mo and 6mo after surgery, and their respective operation results were evaluated. 3mo after surgery, lacrimal drainage tube were removed. Statisical analysis was proceeded on injury types, distances as well as the success rate of lacrimal passage irrigation.<p>RESULTS: Among the 87 cases of canalicular laceration, 29 eyes(33%)were in the PCL(proximal canalicular laceration)group, 41 eyes(47%)were in the MCL(medial canalicular laceration)group, and 17 eyes(20%)were in the DCL(distal canalicular laceration)group. There were 22 eyes(25%)of lacrimal canaliculi fracture caused by sharp instrument injury, including 18 eyes in the PCL group, 2 eyes in the MCL group and 2 eyes in the DCL group. There were 65 eyes(75%)of lacrimal canaliculi fracture caused by blunt trauma or collision, including 11 eyes in the PCL group, 39 eyes in the MCL group and 15 eyes in the DCL group. Six months after surgery, 72 eyes of lacrimal passage irrigation were successful, including 20 eyes in the PCL group, 36 eyes in the MCL group, and 16 eyes in the DCL group. The success rate of postoperative anatomic reduction in the three groups was 69%、88%、94%, respectively(<i>P</i>=0.047). There were 19 eyes of acute injury and 53 eyes of blunt injury with successful lacrimal duct irrigation respectively. The success rate of anatomical reduction was 86%、82%(<i>P</i>=0.605), respectively.<p>CONCLUSION: The canalicular laceration closed to lacrimal punctum is more vulnerable to cutting injury, while the canalicular laceration, which is near the lacrimal sac or between the lacrimal sac and center part of lacrimal punctum, can be more likely caused by lacerated wound. The success rate after operation is higher for patients with distal or medial canalicular laceration, and lower for those who with blunt wound location near the lacrimal punctum.
