Objective To identify the risk factors of Burkholderia cenocepacia associated nosocomial lower respiratory tract infections (NLRTIs),and to investigate the drug resistance of Burkholderia cenocepacia strains.Methods A total of 138 patients with Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs and 40 patients with non-Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs were enrolled in the study.All patients were collected from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University during January 2009 and December 2012.Clinical data and results of drug sensitivity tests were retrospectively reviewed.Chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the risk factors of Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs.Results Logistic regression analvsis showed that combination use of 2 or more antimicrobial agents,mechanical ventilation,stay in intensive care unit (ICU) for more than two weeks,use of antacid H2 antagonist and deep venous puncture were the independent risk factors of Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs (OR =6.315,5.957,5.254,4.585 and 2.017,P ＜0.05).Burkholderia cenocepacia strains were sensitive to levofloxacin,ceftazidime and sulfamethoxazole; More than 40％ strains were resistant to cefotaxime,ceftriaxone,cefepime,aztreonam and tetracycline; And nearly 100％ strains were resistant to gentamicin,amikacin and tobramycin.Conclusion Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs are more likely to occur in patients with combination use of 2 or more antimicrobial agents,mechanical ventilation,and those who stay in ICU for more than two weeks,or received antacid and deep venous punctures,and most Burkholderia cenocepacia strains are multiple drug resistant.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of recombinant expression plasmid containing hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and augmenter of liver regeneration (ALR) on rats with hepatic fibrosis. Methods Ninety Sprague-Dawley rats, which had been established into hepatic fibrosis models, were equally divided into 6 groups: blank group, pcDNA3.1 therapy group,pcDNA3.1-HGF therapy group, pcDNA3. 1-ALR therapy group, pcDNA3.1-HGF and pcDNA3. 1-ALR combined therapy group, and pcDNA3. 1-HGF-ALR therapy group. Zero point one μmol of blank or plasmid was injected into model rats in each group by tail vein once a day for 3 days. Model rats in blank group didn't receive any treatment. Additional 10 rats were chosen as control group, which were not given any interference during the experiment. All rats were sacrificed 4 days after end of treatment. Liver tissues were reserved for observing pathologic changes after HE staining and detecting proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and c-jun by immunohistochemistry. Measurement data were compared by single-factor analysis of variance. Comparison between groups was done by SNK test. Enumeration data were analyzed by Fisher's exact test. Results In blank group and pcDNA3.1 therapy group, hyperplasia of fibrous connective tissue was very obvious, false lobules were formed. There was no significant difference between these two groups (x2 =0. 317,P= 1. 000).In the 4 remaining groups, hepatic fibrosis all achieved different degree of amelioration, and the therapeutic effect of pcDNA3.1-HGF-ALR was optimal. In control group, the expressions of PCNA and c-jun in liver tissues were low, with absorbance value of 8.6±1.9 and 3.2 ± 1.2, respectively. In blank group and pcDNA3. 1 therapy group, the expressions of PCNA and c-jun were obviously increased, with absorbance value of 24. 1±3.0, 24.5±4.3 and 23.8±3.1, 24.9±4.2, respectively,which were significant different from control group (all P＜0.01). In the 4 remaining groups, the expressions of PCNA were all obviously increased, and expressions of c-jun were all obviously decreased. The maximum change scope was observed in pcDNA3. 1-HGF-ALR therapy group.Conclusions The recombinant expression plasmid pcDNA3. 1-HGF-ALR can effectively ameliorate experimental hepatic fibrosis of rats. The anti-fibrosis effects are achieved probably by up-regulating PCNA expression and down-regulating c-jun expression.

Objective To investigate the correlations of extracellular matrix and hepatic ultramicrostructural changes with clinical manifestations in patients with mild chronic hepatitis B (CHB).Methods Patients with chronic HBV infections were enrolled and were divided into mild CHB group (n=66) and HBV carrier group (n=10).Serum samples were collected from patients, and serum HBV markers, HBV DNA load and liver fibrosis indexes were measured.All subjects received liver biopsy, and the tissue samples were observed by light microscope and electron microscope.T test and χ2 test were performed for measurement data and enumeration data, respectively.Spearman test was used for ranked data.Results The differences on ALT and AST levels between mild CHB group and HBV carrier group were significant (t=12.42, 7.06, P＜0.05), but there was no significant difference on HBV DNA load between two groups (t=0.24, P ＞ 0.05).Serum liver fibrosis indexes (hyaluronic acid, type Ⅲ collagen,type Ⅳ collagen and laminin protein) in mild CHB group were not significantly higher than those in HBV carrier group (t=0.45, 0.95, 0.76 and 1.21, P ＞0.05).In mild CHB group, there were 33 patients with ≥G2 and ≥S2, but in HBV carrier group were only 2 patients (χ2=4.17, P ＜ 0.05).Seventeen patients in mild CHB group were with S3-4, while that was not observed in HBV carrier group (χ2=4.75, P ＜0.05).In mild CHB group, hepatic ultramicrostrutural changes on fat storing cell, collagen protein and portal area were correlated with fibrosis grades, and the correlation coefficients were 0.351, 0.675 and 0.301, respectively (P=0.004, 0.000 and 0.014).Conclusion Electron microscope is of higher sensitivity than light microscope in observing hepatic ultramicrostructural changes, which is effective in evaluating the severity of mild CHB.

Abstract The prevalence of myopia among children and adolescents in China remains high. Currently, the prevention and control of myopia among children and adolescents has risen to the level of national health strategy and has attracted extensive attention from the society. Although the role of outdoor activities in preventing myopia is significant, it also has many limitations. Therefore, it is necessary to explore more effective methods for comprehensive intervention. Based on current evidence, in addition to ongoing investigatation of the role of daytime outdoor activities in myopia prevention, emerging controllable environmental and behavioral factors, e.g. increase of indoor high frequency visual information, regulation of sleep and biological rhythm and dietary supplement of polyunsaturated fatty acids ω-3, warrents further attention and active transformation into appropriate technologies for myopia prevention and control.

Abstract The choroid is a multifunctional dynamic structure located between the sclera and the Bruch membrane, which may be involved in the regulation of eye growth and the development of myopia. Choroidal thickness may serve as an important biomarker for predicting the development of myopia and the effectiveness of myopia control treatments in children and adolescents. The study reviews and summarizes the physiological structure and measuring methods of the choroid, and discusses its influencing factors including age, physiological changes, refractive status, axial length, drug effects, optical environment and so on. The review points out the potential applications of choroidal thickness in myopia research among children and adolescents.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence and associated factors of unaided visual impairment and myopia among primary and secondary school students in Yunnan Province, and to provide scientific basis for myopia prevention. Methods: The study was conducted among primary and secondary school students in Mangshi, Yunnan Province from March to August, 2014. All the 7 681 subjects underwent detailed eye examinations and a questionnaire survey. Myopia was defined as spherical equivalent value of less than -0.5 diopters. Unaided visual impairment was analyzed on the basis of the better and the worse-seeing eye, respectively. Results: The prevalence of myopia and high myopia were 39.1% and 0.6%. The prevalence of unaided visual impairment was 11.4% based on the worse-seeing eye. Refractive errors accounted for 87.3% of the participants with unaided visual impairment. Prevalence of myopia was higher in girls than in boys (χ2=29.74, P<0.01), but there was no gender difference in high myopia (P=0.19). The prevalence of myopia and high myopia increased significantly with increasing age (χ2=351.23, 22.56, P<0.01). Besides, prevalence of myopia was 63.7% in Dai nationality students and 36.6% in Yi nationality students (χ2=78.14, P<0.01), which was higher than other ethnic minorities. After adjusting for the effects of sex, age and ethnicity, the presence of myopia was associated with increasing height (OR=1.02, 95%CI=1.01-1.03), computer use (OR=1.17, 95%CI=1.03-1.32), having a myopic father (OR=1.56, 95%CI=1.24-1.94), having a myopic mother (OR=1.33, 95%CI=1.08-1.63) and more time reading(OR=1.18, 95%CI=1.09-1.28). High myopia was found to be more prevalent in children who had a myopic father (OR=3.98, 95%CI=1.72-9.22) and using computers (OR=2.31, 95%CI=1.17-4.57). Conclusion Myopia and unaided visual impairment is prevalent in school students in rural China (Yunnan), though the prevalence is relatively lower compared with other areas in China. Attention should be paid to the formulation and input of primary eye care policies.

Abstract China has one of the world’s highest prevalence of myopia in children and adolescents, and children are developing myopia earlier. Myopia has become a important issues affecting children and adolescents health, as well as a significant public health concern. There has been continuing debate over the role of nature and nurture in the aetiology of myopia, growing evidence showed that environmental factors has a determine effect on myopia.The randomized controlled trials has assured the relationship between time outdoors and myopia. Based on reviewed published articles, survey and intervention studies and school health practices, according to the principle of school organization, student participation and family cooperation, the authors proposed outdoors activities as initiative for myopia prevention and control in children and adolescents. The detail recommendation contents, levels were list out.

Objective:To investigate the effect of symptom management theory(SMT)-based nursing care for the prevention of postoperative abdominal distension in patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods:A total of 80 primary hepatocellular carcinoma patients in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from May 2016 to May 2019 were assigned to the experimental group and the control group according to the admission time, there were 40 cases in each group. The patients in the control group received routine postoperative nursing care, while the patients in the experimental group added SMT-based intervention. The postoperative first exhaust time and defecation time were recorded; the abdominal distension degree after 1, 3, 7 days of surgery were evaluated. In addition, the symptom distress was assessed by The Symptom Module Specific to Primary Liver Cancer (TSM-PLC).Results:The postoperative first exhaust time and defecation time were (69.08±11.44), (78.80±15.54) h in the experimental group, which were significantly lower than those in the control group (76.03±12.26), (86.03±13.48) h, the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.62, 2.22, both P<0.05). After 3, 7 days of surgery, the abdominal distension degrees were significantly alleviated in the experimental group compared to the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( Z =2.31, 2.34, both P<0.05). After 7 days of surgery, the abdominal distension, weight loss, fever symptom scores in TSM-PLC were 1.80±0.28, 0.76±0.21, 0.48±0.19 in the experimental group, which were significantly lower than those in the control group 2.16±0.31, 0.93±0.25, 0.74±0.20, the differences were statistically significant ( t=5.38, 3.27, 5.90, all P<0.05). Conclusions:SMT-based intervention can promote the recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal function and alleviate abdominal distension symptom distress of patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective: To analyze research hot spots and trends on myopia in children and adolescents in China, and to provide a reference for the future development of this research field. Methods: Using CiteSpace software, 725 eligible Chinese documents published over a 22 year period were sourced from CNKI, VIP and Wanfang Chinese databases, were analyzed during 2000-2021. The data were visualized by a keyword co occurrence map, and clustering, as well as burst and author cooperative networks. Results: The research field of myopia in children and adolescents in China had undergone three stages:an initial formation period, development period and rapid growth period, and it was expected that the annual number of papers will maintain an increasing trend in the future. "Myopia" "adolescents" "children" and "students" were the most frequent keywords(667, 535, 288, 47). The keyword burst "adolescents" started the earliest, and "students" had the largest burst strength and duration. Zhang Ning, Tang Wenting, Tao Fangbiao, Yang Xiao and others have made important contributions to this research field. Conclusion In recent years, the research focus in this field has gradually shifted toward the influencing factors, as well as prevention and treatment measures of child and adolescent myopia. The trend of myopia in young children and adolescents is obvious. In the future, research on the prevention, control and treatment of myopia in children and adolescents will become a hot spot.

Abstract The incidence of myopia in children and adolescents has increased in recent years, with an earlier onset trend. During the same time, sleep problems are prevalent in children and adolescents, including insufficient sleep duration and delayed sleep timing. Sleep, as a cyclical life activity influenced by the circadian rhythm, plays an important role in eye growth and refractive development. This review examines the associations between sleep, circadian rhythm, and occurrence of myopia in children and adolescents across human and animal studies, and discusses the underlying biological processes, so as to offer scientific justification for the prevention of myopia in children and adolescents.
