OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine （DEX）-assisted general anesthesia on hemodynamics and cognitive function in elderly patients undergoing painless enteroscopy. METHODS From July 2020 to February 2022， 180 elderly patients undergoing painless enteroscopy in the outpatient operating room of the Second People’s Hospital of Jiaozuo were selected and divided into a control group （n＝90） and an observation group （n＝90） according to the random number table method. The control group was given routine general anesthesia （induced with sufentanil and propofol anesthesia， maintained with propofol anesthesia）， while the observation group was given DEX-assisted general anesthesia after preoperative preparation. The hemodynamic indexes [mean arterial pressure （MAP）， heart rate （HR）]， dosage of general anesthesia， awakening time， cognitive function [minimized mental status examination （MMSE）]， and the incidence of adverse drug reactions were compared between the two groups. RESULTS There was no significant difference in various indicators before anesthesia （T0） between 2 groups （P＞ 0.05）. Compared with T0， MAP and HR of the two groups were reduced significantly 10 minutes after anesthesia （T1）， at the time of enteroscope reaching the ileum and cecum （T2）， enteroscope withdrawal after the examination （T3）， and 10 minutes after surgery （T4）； but MAP and HR of the observation group at T1， T2， T3， and T4 were all higher than those of the control group （P＜0.05）. Compared with the control group， the dosage of general anesthesia and the recovery time in the observation group were significantly reduced or shortened， the MMSE scores at 1， 2 and 3 days after the operation were significantly increased， while the incidence of cognitive dysfunction and adverse reactions were significantly reduced （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS DEX can effectively improve the hemodynamics and cognitive function of elderly patients undergoing painless enteroscopy， which is beneficial to reduce the dosage of general anesthesia， shorten recovery time， and has better safety.

Objective:To investigate the clinical diagnostic value of joint test of retinol-binding protein (RBP), cystatin C (CYSC) and urinary (albumin/creatinine ratio, ALB/Cr) ALB/Cr in early diabetes nephropathy.Methods:Data of 50 early diabetic nephropathy patients (EDN group) from Jan. 2020 to Jun. 2021 in our hospital, another 50 pure type 2 diabetic patients (T2DM group), and 50 healthy subjects (control group) were compared and analysed. RBP, CYSC and urinary ALB/Cr were tested for the 3 groups. Then the clinical diagnostic value between single index test and joint test for the early diabetes nephropathy were compared.Results:Group EDN had higher RBP, CYSC and urinary ALB/Cr [ (114.66±0.56) mg/L, (2.64±0.33) mg/L, (351.81±15.48) ] mg/g than group T2DM [ (83.58±0.83) mg/L, (1.41±0.29) mg/L, (113.65±12.55) mg/g] and control group[ (38.61±0.66) mg/L, (0.53±0.26) mg/L, (16.36±5.61) mg/g]. The difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The specificity and sensitivity of early diabetes nephropathy were 95.38% and 96.21%, both higher than single index test. Conclusion:The combined detection of serum RBP, CYSC and urine ALB/Cr has certain reference value for the clinical diagnosis of early diabetic nephropathy.

Objective:By analyzing factors associated with lower urinary tract symptoms in middle-aged and elderly women aged 55-65 years old, a nomogram model for lower urinary tract symptoms was constructed to assist the clinical development of targeted interventions to reduce the incidence of lower urinary tract symptoms in this population.Methods:In the cross-sectional study, 798 middle-aged and elderly women aged 55-65 years receiving physical examination in the Health Management Center of Third Xiangya Hospital from November 2013 to December 2020 were selected as research participants.Univariate regression analysis was used to compare differences in the basic data related to lower urinary tract symptoms in the population.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify related influencing factors, and a nomogram model for lower urinary tract symptoms in the population was established.Results:Among 798 middle-aged and elderly women surveyed, the prevalence of lower urinary tract symptoms was 81.08 %(647 cases), and the rate of urinary tract infections was 21.48 %(139 cases). Variables with statistical significance in univariate regression analysis were included in multivariate Logistic regression analysis.The results showed that body mass index, vaginal delivery, strength of pelvic floor type Ⅱ fiber muscle, pelvic and abdominal coordination and mental health were independent influencing factors for lower urinary tract symptoms in middle-aged and elderly women aged 55-65 years( OR=1.099, 2.681, 0.895, 0.658, 1.057, P=0.010, 0.030, 0.040, 0.010, 0.038). The monogram model based on the five risk prediction indexes produced a consistency index(C-index)of 0.651 and a diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of 66.9% and 58.9%, respectively.The correction curve showed that the predicted results of the model were essentially the same as the actual probability of condition. Conclusions:In this study, the independent influencing factors for lower urinary tract symptoms in middle-aged and elderly women aged 55-65 years were screened by univariate regression and multivariate Logistic regression analysis and a nomogram model for risk prediction of the population was constructed, was proved to have a good ability for accurately and effectively predicting the risk of lower urinary tract symptoms in middle-aged and elderly women aged 55-65 years, and will assist clinicians to screen for high-risk patients, formulate targeted interventions, and reduce the incidence of lower urinary tract symptoms in middle-aged and elderly women aged 55-65 years.

Objective: To investigate the application of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in detection of the rare or difficult-to-cultivate pathogens. Methods: One patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who went through allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) developed symptoms of infection after transplantation. Conventional microbial culture, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and mNGS combined with biological information analysis were performed with plasma and cerebrospinal fluid samples, the anti-infective treatment was adjusted according to the test results, and the efficacy was assessed. Results: No suspected pathogens were detected by microbial culture and PCR in the cerebrospinal fluid and plasma samples since the patient developed infection symptoms. However, Legionella pneumophila was analyzed by mNGS in the cerebrospinal fluid specimen on day 23 after allo-HSCT (reads count: 19 655), and it was considered as the principal pathogen after comprehensively evaluating the patient's clinical manifestations and the test results. Then the antimicrobial treatments were adjusted according to the patient's clinical manifestations and laboratory test results, and the number of gene sequences of Legionella pneumophila was monitored by mNGS method. Azithromycin, tigecycline, and other antibiotics effective for Legionella pneumophila were used after detecting this pathogen. A total of 15 mNGS analysis were performed during the 5-month period, and the highest number of Legionella pneumophila sequences monitored in the cerebrospinal fluid was 2 226, the lowest was 253 and eventually turned negative. The clinical symptoms and treatment outcomes were consistent with the mNGS monitoring results. Conclusions The mNGS technology has significant value in detection of the rare and difficult-to-cultivate pathogens. The mNGS technology provides a valuable supplement to microbial culture and PCR methods.
