RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the report accuracy and risk factors of congenital syphilis (CS), and to provide references of accurate diagnosis for clinicians.Methods:CS notification data, including suspected cases and confirmed cases, were obtained from national notifiable disease reporting system (NNDRS) reported from 2016 to 2019 in Guangzhou City. Information of syphilis infected pregnant women and their children who were diagnosed or excluded with CS during 2012-2019 were extracted from Guangzhou City'the integrated prevention of mother-to-child transmission of human immunodeficiency virus, syphilis and hepatitis B virus surveillance system’. Their demographic characteristics, serological test results of syphilis, reporting doctors and treatment regimens were analyzed.Chi-square test was used for univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors associated with CS.Results:A total of 95 CS cases were reported in NNDRS, and the reporting accuracy rate was 36.8%(35 cases). The proportion of children younger than 30 days who were reported incorrectly (73.3%(44/60)) was higher than the proportion of those were reported correctly (51.4%(18/35)), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.679, P=0.031). However, the reporting accuracy was not associated with hospital grade, doctor profession and doctor title of reporting ( χ2=0.283, 0.483 and 3.681, respectively, all P>0.05). Maternal age≤24 years (adjusted odds ratio ( aOR)=4.62), titers of non- Treponema pallidum antigen serologic test before treatment≥1∶8 ( aOR=7.56), initiation of antisyphilitic treatment during delivery ( aOR=25.43), no antisyphilitic treatment during pregnancy ( aOR=14.12), and premature delivery ( aOR=8.97) increased the risks of CS (all P<0.01). Conclusions:The reporting accuracy rate of CS is low. Young mothers, high serological titers of non- Treponema pallidum antigen before treatment, initiation of antisyphilitic treatment during delivery or no antisyphilitic treatment during pregnancy, and premature delivery are risk factors for CS. Doctors may focus on collecting this information to assist clinical diagnosis.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the clinical value of the free fibula flap transplantation in repair of the defect of tibia and soft tissue with the help of augmented reality (AR) technology.Methods:From May, 2017 to May, 2019, 9 patients with tibial and soft tissue defects were treated. Before operation, CTA scan was performed on both shanks to obtain DICOM data of tibial bone defect. Images of the designed fibular flap and its blood supply model were imported into Sina software through computer virtual surgery assistant technology. With the AR technology, information of virtual fibula flap were projected onto the body surface at the donor site, and the operation was carried out under the precise positioning. In this group, the free fibular flap was harvested with an area of 6.0 cm×4.0 cm-12.0 cm×6.0 cm and the length of fibula was 6.0-13.5 cm. The free fibula flap were used to repair the tibial defect with 5.0-12.0 cm in length and soft tissue defect area at 5.0 cm×3.0 cm-10.0 cm×4.5 cm. Patients were followed-up to observe the survival of fibular flap and the functional recovery of the repaired lower limb, and evaluate the clinical effect.Results:All the fibular flaps survived without vascular crisis and without serious complications occurred at both of donor and recipient sites. After 8-12 months of follow-up, the flap was soft in texture and good in blood supply. The appearance of the repair site was not bloated. Callus began to form at the junction of fibula and tibia at 3-5 months and healed well in 8-12 months. No bone resorption, nonunion, loosening or falling off of screws were found. There was no pain in the shank of the recipient area. Patients could stand and walk freely, and the weight-bearing function was close to normal. According to Enneking system, the average score was 27 points; 7 cases were excellent and 2 cases were good.Conclusion:Application of AR technology in the repair of tibial bone defect with fibular flap transplantation has good clinical effect and has certain practical value.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the clinical value of augmented reality (AR) technology combined with Doppler ultrasound in repairing soft tissue defects around ankle with posterior tibial artery perforator flap.Methods:From June, 2017 to June, 2020, 13 patients with soft tissue defects around ankle were repaired with the posterior tibial artery perforator flap sized 3.0 cm×7.0 cm-5.0 cm×10.0 cm. Preoperative CTA scan was performed to obtain the 3-dimensional image of the blood supply of the donor site. The origin and direction of blood supply, length of pedicle, diameter and the location of perforator were determined. An image fusion software based on Android mobile phone was used from the body surface to realize the navigation by AR, and to mark the locations of the points where blood vessels ran and passed by. At the same time, Doppler ultrasound was employed to confirm the navigation. The optimal puncture fulcrum was used as the flap rotation point in design of the flap. After the flap had been designed, the flap was harvested and the defect was repaired. Outpatient clinic follow-up was performed to evaluate the survival of flap and the function of ankle.Results:All 13 flaps survied without vascular issues. After 6-16 (average 10) months follow-up, all flaps survived. The flaps appeared soft with good blood supply. The colour of the repaired sites were basically the same as normal skin. According to American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) , the ankle function was excellent in 9 patients and good in 4 patients. There was no obvious scar formation on the donor sites.Conclusion:The application of AR technology combined with Doppler ultrasound in the surgical planning of posterior tibial artery perforator flap has advantages in easy to operate in clinical practice. It can reduce the risk of surgery, and has significance in clinical practice.
RESUMO
Objective:To explore the current status of human resources allocation and occupational situation of community child health care medical staff (CCHCMS) in Guangzhou.Methods:A questionnaire survey of job burnout and turnover intention was conducted from January 2 to January 10, 2020 among CCHCMS in 11 districts of Guangzhou. Lorentz curve and Gini coefficient were used to analyze the equity of human resources allocation. Influencing factors of turnover intention of CCHCMS were explored using structural equation model.Results:There were 5.63 CCHCMS per 10 000 children aged 0 to 6 years old, and 0.08 CCHCMS per square kilometer in Guangzhou. According to the distributions of service population and area, the Gini coefficients of CCHCMS were 0.13 and 0.47, respectively. A total of 574 CCHCMS completed the questionnaire survey, and 197 (34.3%) showed higher turnover intention. The constructed structural equation model fit well (RMSEA=0.04, CFI=0.97). The standardized coefficients of the average monthly income before tax, job satisfaction and career burnout on turnover intention were -0.30, -0.46 and 0.22, respectively. Job satisfaction indirectly affected turnover intention through the mediating role of career burnout (standardized cofficient=0.10) . Income and mode of employment were negatively correlated with job burnout, and standardized cofficient were -0.10,-0.16,respectively. The standardized coefficients of education and work area on job satisfaction were -0.16 and 0.20, respectively.Conclusion:The number of CCHCMS in far suburbs of Guangzhou is insufficient. CCHCMS have a high turnover intention. Income, mode of employment, education and work area are the factors that influence the turnover intention of CCHCMS.
RESUMO
Objective@#To evaluate the influence of antiretroviral prophylaxis on the growth and development of HIV-exposed uninfected infants in Guangzhou.@*Methods@#Data were from the national information system for prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV infection, syphilis and hepatitis B. After excluding death and perinatal HIV infection cases, 564 HIV-exposed uninfected infants were included. The infants were divided into three groups, nevirapine (NVP) group, zidovudine (AZT) group and untreated group. The influences of antiretroviral prophylaxis on the body weight and height of the HIV-exposed uninfected infants were analyzed by using generalized estimating equations.@*Results@#The HIV-exposed uninfected infants at 1-month old had lower Z scores of body weight-for-age and body height-for-age than the World Health Organization’s reference standard. The prevalence of wasting in AZT group (17.5%) was higher than that in NVP group (6.2%) for 1-month old infants. Taking NVP or AZT was a protective factor for Z score of body length-for-age (P<0.05). Intrauterine exposure to triple antiviral drugs was a risk factor for the Z scores of body weight-for-age and body length-for-age (P<0.05).@*Conclusion@#The physical growth and development of HIV-exposed uninfected infants at 1-month old was not well, and HIV-exposed uninfected infants who taking AZT had a higher incidence of wasting. Attention should be paid to these infants.

Objective To explore the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on the walking function of patients with early Parkinson's disease.Methods Thirty patients with early Parkinson's disease were randomly divided into an intervention group (n =15) and a control group (n =15).In addition to routine treatment,both groups were apparently provided with tDCS,though the current intensity for the intervention group was 2mA and that of the control group was zero.Both groups were treated for 20min every day for 5 days in succession.Before and after the treatment,all of the patients were evaluated using the timed up and go test (TUGT) and their gaits were analyzed to determine step velocity,cadence and width.Results Before and after the treatment there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of average TUGT time,though the average TUGT time had decreased significantly compared with before the treatment.Before the treatment there were no significant differences between the two groups in average step velocity,cadence or width.After the treatment,significant improvements were observed only in the intervention group.The average step width of the intervention group was then significantly bigger than that of the control group.Conclusion Transcranial direct current stimulation can improve the walking function and stability of early Parkinson's patients.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the role of p16,Ki-67 and human papilloma virus(HPV)type in the shunt treatment of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) Ⅱ. Methods The paraffin block on file and the pathological results from loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) of 377 CIN Ⅱpatients diagnosed with colposcope examination accompanied by cervical high-risk HPV infection in the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University of Obstetrics and Gynecology Department from January 2014 to October 2016 were collected. The paraffin sections were stained with p16 and Ki-67 immunohistochemistry. The correlation between the expression of p16 and Ki-67 in biopsy tissues and the pathological results after LEEP was analyzed.HPV type and pathological results after LEEP were also analyzed.Results LEEP postoperative pathological grade in 337 cases of CINⅡpatients was divided into two groups(<CINⅡ and ≥CINⅡ). There was no statistical difference in age between the two groups (t = 3.078, P = 0.063). There were statistical differences in the expressions of p16+and Ki-67+between the two groups[3.6 %(8/233) vs. 88.5 % (92/104), χ 2=235.54,P<0.001; 3.0 %(7/233) vs. 76.9 % (80/104), χ 2= 197.63, P< 0.001]. There was a statistical difference in HPV infection type between the two groups (χ2= 12.713, P = 0.005). The sensitivity and specificity of p16+and Ki-67+for LEEP postoperative≥CINⅡ was 88.89 % vs.77.78 % and 95.96 % vs.95.80 % respectively. There was a statistical difference in group type of p16 and Ki-67 in both groups (χ2=304.28, P< 0.001). The sensitivity of p16+Ki-67+was 90.73 % and the specificity was 98.74 % in CINⅡpatients for LEEP postoperative. Conclusions The expressions of p16 and Ki-67 can guide the colposcopic biopsy for the treatment of CINⅡ. For CINⅡpatients with p16+Ki-67+, the active treatment should be taken. Close observation needs to follow for p16 and Ki-67 single negative or double negative patients. Active treatment should be performed for CINⅡpatients with HPV16 type infection in CINII. Age can not be used as the basis for the patients with shunt CINⅡ.

Objective To quantitatively analyze the dynamic posture in patients with early stage Pakinson disease (ESPD) by using dynamic posture equilibrium equipment. Method Thirty two ESPD patients were recruited in this study, in which, 10 was at Hoehn-Yahr stage 1, 9 at Hoehn-Yahr stage 1.5, 13 at Hoehn-Yahr stage 2. Thirty two age and gen?der matched healthy subjects served as a control group. The sensory organization test (SOT), motion coordination test (MCT), adaptive test (ADT), walk across were performed in those two groups using NeuroCom smart dynamic posture equipment. Results The average composite scores for SOT were 64 and 79 in ESPD patients and control group(P=0.032). The eqilibrium ratio of vision and vestibular sense were obviously lower in ESPD patients than in the control group ( 73.55±3.15 vs. 82.45±3.53, P=0.037;45.25±4.25 vs. 66.43±6.98, P=0.021). MCT showed that ESPD patients had a higher abnormality ratio of centre-of-gravity position compared with controls ( 70.3%vs. 7% )(P<0.001). ESPD pa?tients had 33% and 57% abnormality in ADT and Walk Across, which were obviously higher compared with control group (P<0.001). Conclusions ESPD patients have different degrees of posture disorders and posture equilibrium assess?ment at early stage is beneficial to rehabilitation training.

RESUMO
AIM: To investigate the effect of ischemic preconditioning (IP) on myocardial Bcl-2 expression and mitochondrial structure during heart valve replacement surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass. METHODS: Fifty-four patients were prospectively randomized to receive or not ischemic preconditioning (IP) before cold cardioplegic arrest. Ischemic preconditioning in the IP patients (n=22) was induced by a single 2-min ischemia followed by 3-min reperfusion just before aortic clamping and cold crystalloid cardioplegia for myocardial protection. The control group (n=32) received no ischemic preconditioning before cold cardioplegic arrest. The levels of ejection fraction (EF), fractional shortening(FS) and stroke volume (SV) in both groups were measured and compared. troponin T (c-TnT) level, Bcl-2 protein expression and microscopic changes of myocardial mitochondrial structure were recorded for each group before and after surgery. RESULTS: The level of EF, FS and SV in IP group was higher than those in control group (P<0.05). No significant difference in preoperative c-TnT levels between two groups was observed. The level of c-TnT in IP group was lower than that in control group and with a declining trend over time of 6 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and 5 d after surgery, respectively. The preoperative positive unit of Bcl-2 expression between two groups showed no statistical difference (P> 0.05). Postoperatively, the positive unit of Bcl-2 expression in IP group was 19.85±5.88, significantly increased as compared to the preoperative value (P<0.05). In control group, the positive unit of Bcl-2 expression was 14.17±3.39, showed no statistically significant difference to the preoperative value (P>0.05). Postoperative Bcl-2 expression between two groups showed a significant difference (P<0.05). In the control group, microscopic observation revealed swollen mitochondrion, with a hardly visible or disrupted membrane for some mitochondrion;mitochondrial crista were obviously dissolved and loose with a large number of vacuoles formation. However in IP group, myocardial mitochondrion appeared with intact membrane, concentrated mitochondrial cristae with high electron density and no vacuoles formation was observed. CONCLUSION: IP may up-regulate the expression of myocardial anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 to protect the mitochondrion, thus protecting cardiocytes and cardiac functions.
RESUMO

RESUMO
[Objective] The aim of this study was to establish a quantitative SYBR Green Ⅰ real-time PCR method for detection of wide-type p53-induced phosphatase 1 (Wip1 or PPM1D) gene expression level in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC),and to investigate the relationship between Wip1 mRNA expression level and the clinicopathological characters.[Method] Real-time PCR was employed to determine the expression level of Wip1 mRNA in 44 specimens of NSCLC tissues and their adjacent normal tissues.[Results] In the 44 specimens,the expression of Wip1 mRNA in both cancer tissues and adjacent normal lung tissues were positive.Wip1 gene was overexpressed in 17 specimens among 44 NSCLC specimens.The rate was 38.6%.The relative level of Wip1 mRNA in NSCLC tissues was significantly higher than the adjacent normal lung tissues (Ratio = 2.1644 ± 1.394,P < 0.01).The expression of Wip1 mRNA was also correlated with pathological staging (F = 5.08,P = 0.013).[Conclusion] The established SYBR Green Ⅰ quantitative real-time PCR method can successfully detect the expression level of Wip1 mRNA.The results suggested that Wip1 may be involved in the development of NSCLC.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE To discuss the clinical traits,pathogenesis and TCM stepwise treatments of urinary tract infection(UTI) based on symptom differentiation among elderly patients.METHODS Because of the whole and the partial immune defense function descending,the elderly patients easily suffered from UTI,which was characterized by non-typical symptom,complex and serious condition.In the aspects of the pathogenesis of UTI among elderly patients,the principal aspect of which was the deficiency of the kidney and spleen(weakened body resistance)and the secondary incidental was accumulated damp-heat in the lower warmer(affected pathogenic factor),viz weaken healthy qi and excessive pathogenic factor.Hence during the clinical treatment we should attach importance to regulate entire faculty condition.Considering the acute attack stage and non-acute phase,we will differently inflict therapies of clearing away the heat-evil,dissolving dampness,treating stranguria,hemostasis,and invigorating spleen and kidney assisted by treating stranguria and so on,according to differentiation of symptoms and treatments,in which way we could give attention to both the principal and the secondary aspects of a disease.RESULTS The TCM stepwise therapy of UTI among elderly patients had the characteristics of high efficacy,few side reactions and stable long-term curative effects.CONCLUSIONS The TCM therapy of UTI among elderly patients has more potentiality and predominance,which deserves further study.
RESUMO
Casein kinase I gamma 2 isoform (CSNK1G2), a member of the large casein kinase I (CKI) family, may affect the development of brain, and associate with vesicular trafficking and neurotransmitter releasing from small synaptic vesicles. Based on our previous linkage analysis data that mapped our simple febrile seizures (FS) families to 19p13.3 and the function of CSNK1G2 in this region, CSNK1G2 was chosen as a candidate gene for FS. All of the 13 exons and their flanking introns of the CSNK1G2 gene were amplified and sequenced, and 10 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were found. Using the three SNPs we found as markers, we conducted association studies in 60 FS patients and 101 normal controls. Allele and genotype frequencies of the SNPs IVS2-33C > T and 837C > T as well as the haplotype of the two SNPs were significantly different between FS patients and controls (P < 0.05). This study suggests that CSNK1G2 gene may be a susceptibility gene for FS in the northern Chinese Han population.
