Objective:To report the surgical experience and long-term survival in patients with infective endocarditis associated with aortic periannular abscess.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed collected data on all 162 patients who underwent surgical treatment between December 2010 and May 2023 in our hospital.Results:128 were male(79.0%). Patients' mean age was(47.9±15.1) years. The infected valve was prosthetic in 11 patients(6.8%). All patients underwent aortic valve replacement(100%) and 22 patients(13.5%) received aortic root replacement. Operative mortality was 6.8% (n=11)(prosthetic valve endocarditis vs native valve endocarditis, 18.2% vs. 6.0%, P=0.17). Postoperative mean follow-up was (34.00±2.19) months. 1 patient(1.2%) died during follow-up. Endocarditis recurred in 3 patients(1.8%) at a mean of (2.1±0.6) years. Survival at 3 years and 5 years were 90.0% and 86.9%, respectively. Conclusion:Infective endocarditis with a secondary aortic root abscess can lead to necrosis of the valve's surrounding tissues. Positive surgical intervention can improve the patient's prognosis and survival.

Objective To analyze the loss coefficient of bivalent live attenuated oral polio vaccine(bOPV) in Hongshan District, and understand the causes and influencing factors, and to provide a basis for scientifically formulating vaccine use plans and regulating vaccine management. Methods Using the data of Hubei Province Immunization Planning Information System and Hongshan District Vaccination Storage and Management System, a special questionnaire was designed to understand the vaccination and use of bOPV in various immunization units in Hongshan District. A descriptive statistical analysis method was used to calculate the loss coefficient. Results The bOPV loss coefficient of 25 vaccination units in Hongshan District was 1.69. The difference of the loss coefficient between the out-patient clinics of the District Health and Family Planning Committee(1.35)and the community clinics undertaken by large hospitals (2.01)was statistically significant. The difference of the loss coefficient between the inoculation once a week(1.57)and 2-6 times per week(1.94)was statistically significant. In terms of vaccine-disabled time, the two groups of <4 hours and >4 hours had different calculated loss coefficients 1.86 and 1.61, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant. Multivariate regression analysis of the factors related to the loss coefficients found that different outpatient attributes had a greater impact on the loss coefficient than the inoculation cycle and the number of inoculation stations. The loss coefficient for 2016 and 2017 was 2.09 and 1.75, respectively. The difference was statistically significant. Conclusion The management and use of live attenuated bivalent polio vaccine in Hongshan District was relatively standardized. The vaccine loss can by further reduced by strengthening supervision and assessment, setting up centralized vaccination and standardizing publicity and training.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of proteinuria in patients with hypertension in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.Methods:From March 2019 to June 2020, prospective design was used to collect data of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau hypertension patients who were eligible for continuous enrollment in the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine in Hospital of Chengdu Office of People's Government of Tibet Autonomous Region. Questionnaire survey, physical examination and blood pressure measurement were performed on the selected patients. Fasting venous blood samples were collected for liver function test, blood lipid test, blood glucose test, and hemoglobin test, etc. Three times of morning urine samples were taken on different days, and urine protein creatinine ratio (UACR) was measured, UACR < 30 mg/g was negative for urinary protein, and UACR≥30 mg/g was positive for urinary protein. At the same time, the selected patients were examined by carotid artery color ultrasound and heart color ultrasound. The risk factors of proteinuria were analyzed.Results:A total of 588 patients with hypertension met the inclusion criteria, including 472 patients (80.3%) who received antihypertensive drug therapy, 239 patients (40.6%) had antihypertensive treatment compliance, and 252 patients (42.9%) reached the standard blood pressure after theropy. Hypertension was associated with diabetes mellitus in 150 patients (25.5%), and urinary protein was positive in 126 patients (21.4%). In univariate analysis, ethnic composition, systolic blood pressure [(138.19 ± 19.65) vs (133.16 ± 18.45) mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa], diastolic blood pressure [(85.80 ± 13.51) vs (83.17 ± 12.19) mmHg], uric acid [(411.79 ± 101.54) vs (379.96 ± 102.18) μmol/L], hemoglobin [(152.86 ± 30.70) vs (143.49 ± 21.15) g/L], pulmonary artery trunk width [(21.76 ± 3.94) vs (20.98 ± 3.34) mm], and ventricular septal thickness [(9.90 ± 1.70) vs (9.47 ± 1.60) mm] in the positive group ( n = 126) were significantly higher than those in the negative group ( n = 462, P < 0.01 or < 0.05). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, increased systolic blood pressure [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.015, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.005 - 1.026], uric acid ( OR = 1.003, 95% CI: 1.001 - 1.005), and pulmonary artery trunk width ( OR = 1.058, 95% CI: 1.001 - 1.118) were risk factors for proteinuria; Tibetans had a decreased risk of proteinuria compared with Han ( OR = 0.505, 95% CI: 0.317 - 0.805), but increased hemoglobin had an increased risk of proteinuria compared with normal hemoglobin ( OR = 1.890, 95% CI: 1.231 - 2.903). Conclusion:In patients with hypertension at high altitude, increased hemoglobin, systolic blood pressure, uric acid, pulmonary artery trunk width, and Han nationality are risk factors for proteinuria.

Objective To explore the effect of controlled low central venous pressure(CLCVP)on venous congestion and postoperative acute kidney injury(AKI)in cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB).Methods A total of 137 patients scheduled for elective cardiac surgery under general anes-thesia with CPB were selected,including 73 males and 64 females,aged 18 to 70 years,with a BMI of 20 to 28 kg/m2,and ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ.The patients were randomly assigned into two groups:the controlled low central venous pressure group(group CL,n=68)and the control group(group C,n=69).In group CL,CLCVP was applied by pumping nitroglycerin to reduce CVP to below 10 mmHg after 20 minutes of CPB cessation until the end of surgery.If necessary,norepinephrine was applied to maintain MAP≥65 mmHg.Patients in group C received standardized anesthesia management.Urine samples were collected before anesthesia induction and 12 hours postoperatively to detect the concentration of kidney injury molecule-1(KIM-1).Urine samples were also collected before anesthesia induction and 2 hours postopera-tively to detect the concentration of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin(NGAL).Cumulative time a-bove 10,12,16,and 20 mmHg and time-weighted average CVP were used to assess venous congestion.The occurrence of postoperative AKI,stage 2 or above AKI,renal replacement therapy(CRRT),postoperative low cardiac output syndrome(LCOS),acute kidney injury following cardiac surgery(AKICS)score when arriving in ICU,in-hospital mortality,ICU stay,and postoperative hospital stay were recorded.Results Compared with group C,the cumulative time of CVP above 10,12,16,and 20 mmHg after CPB in group CL was significantly shorter,and the time-weighted average CVP was significantly lower(P<0.05).AKI occurred in 9 patients(13.2%)in group CL and 15 patients(21.7%)in group C postoperatively,and there was no significant difference between the two groups.One case(1.5%)of stage 2 or above AKI oc-curred in group CL and 2 patients(2.9%)in group C,with one patient in group C requiring CRRT.Com-pared with group C,the concentrations of KIM-1 at 12 hours postoperatively and NGAL at 2 hours postoper-atively were significantly lower in group CL(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in LCOS,AKICS score,in-hospital mortality,ICU stay,and postoperative hospital stay.Conclusion Controlled low central venous pressure in cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass can reduce venous congestion and decrease the occurrence of postoperative renal injury,thereby exerting a certain renal protective effect.
