Objective To study a quick and effective assessing method used in the emergency trauma patients in order to prevent delaying treatment for patients from overlook or misdiagnosis during triage. Method From 1 January 2006 to 31 September 2006, there were 4023 patients evaluated with trauma assessment method, which was composed of CRAMS scale and trauma assessment program. Results Of 4023 patients, there were 2430 cases with CRAMS below 1( < 7) ,of whom 1979 cases assessed with trauma assessment program were found to be injuried severely to threaten their lives. And more noticeably,of 1593 patients with CRAMS ≥7 there were 46 patients found to have life-threatening injuries assessed with trauma assessment method. Conclutions CRAMS score can be used for triage, and trauma assessment program can be used to evaluate the injuries anatomically. Trauma assessment program and CRAMS employed conjointly can increase the sensitivity and specificity for the stratification of the severity in the injuried patients in order to get a successful triage and lo take advantage of the resources of e-mergency care appropriately.

ObjectiveTo investigate the predisposing factors and pathogenic fungal species of Malassezia folliculitis in different geographical areas and body sites.MethodsTotally,241 patients diagnosed with Malassezia folliculitis were asked to complete a questionnaire.The content of hair follicles was obtained and subjected to fungal smear and culture examination.Fungal species were identified according to morphological,physiological and biochemical features.Results Of the 241 patients with Malassezia folliculitis,204 (84.65%) were positive for smear examination.A total of 259 specimens were collected from these patients,and fungal culture grew 213(82.24%) strains,of which,209 belonged to Malassezia species,4(1.54%) to Candida species.Among the 209 Malassezia strains,186 were activated and subjected to species identification which resulted in 6 species,including M.furfur (111 strains,59.68% ),M.sloofiae (43 strains,23.12% ),M.sympodialis (17 strains,9.14%),M.globosa (9 strains,4.84%),M.pachydermatis (4 strains,2.15%),and M.obtuse(2 strains,1.08% ).Of the pathogenic fungi of Malassezia folliculitis,M.furfur predominated in the chest,back,abdomen,face and neck,M.sloofiae in the upper limbs,shoulders and vertex,M.globosa in the lower limbs.There were obvious differences in the distribution of pathogenic fungal species at different body sites in a same host,and M.furfur with M.sloofiae or M.sympodialis appeared to be the most common pathogens.ConclusionsIn this study,6 Malassezia species are identified in patients with Malassezia folliculitis in Nantong and Nanjing area,M.furfur and M.sloofiae appear to be the dominant pathogens.

Objectives:To investigate the prevalence of cough and its influencing factors in community children under 5 years old.Methods:From October to December 2019, we selected 3 102 community children under the age of 5 from 50 natural villages/residential communities in 14 towns/streets of Yiwu, Zhejiang Province, using multi-stage random sampling method. A face-to-face and on-site questionnaire survey was conducted among child caregivers to collect demographic data and information about children′s cough in the last 1 month. Multiple logistic regression model was used to analyze children′s cough and the influencing factors of different cough states.Results:Multivariate logistic regression model analysis results showed that compared with 0-1 year old, dispersed, caregivers with education level below high school, families with 1 child under 5 years old, Cough risk was higher in 1-2, 2-3, 3-4 years old, nurseries, caregivers with education level of high school or above, and families with more than 2 children under 5 years old. OR (95% CI) values were 1.52(1.19-1.92), 1.65(1.29-2.10), 1.86(1.36-2.54), 2.59(1.99-3.38), 1.48(1.26-1.74) and 1.35(1.13-1.62), respectively. Further analysis of the influencing factors of different states of cough, multivariate logistic regression model analysis results showed that preschool status, the number of children under 5 years old in the family and the education level of caregivers were the influencing factors of acute, prolonged and chronic cough. Age was only an influencing factor of acute and persistent cough. Conclusions:The disease burden of cough in children under 5 years old community was heavy, and the cough was related to children′s age, education level of caregivers, number of children under 5 years old in the family and childcare status.
