Objective To compare the importance of heart murmurs and transcutaneous oxygen saturation (SpO2)in screening neonatal congenital heart diseases(CHD),and to explore a reliable and easy-to-use method for the screening of CHD. Methods All infants (16 070 cases) born in Changzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital from May 1 st 2011 to April 30 th 2013 were screened of CHD for heart murmurs and SpO2 . The screen-positive infants were divided into 3 groups:heart murmurs group,abnormal SpO2 group and mixed group. All screen-positive infants re-ceived cardiac color ultrasound to make a definite diagnosis of CHD,so as to compare the values of heart murmurs and SpO2 . Results Eight thousand seven hundred and ninety-nine boys and 7 271 girls were screened,in which the ratio was 1. 21:1. 00. One hundred and eighteen infants were screened positive,including 76 murmurs of which 45 were confirmed as CHD,28 with abnormal SpO2 of which 18 were confirmed and 14 mixed of which 13 were confirmed,so the confirmation rates were 59. 21%,64. 29% and 92. 86%,respectively. The diagnostic rate of CHD in mixed group was higher than other 2 groups,which had statistical significance(P=0. 045). The top three formation types of CHD were ventricular septal defect (VSD) (29/76 cases,38. 16%),patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) (13/76 cases, 17. 11%) and atrial septal defect (ASD) (11/76 cases,14. 48%). Conclusions The combination of heart murmurs and SpO2 was useful in increasing detection and decreasing misdiagnosis of CHD.

Objective:
To explore the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based whole tumor texture analysis in differentiating borderline epithelial ovarian tumors (BEOTs) from FIGO stage I/II malignant epithelial ovarian tumors (MEOTs).
Materials and Methods:
A total of 88 patients with histopathologically confirmed ovarian epithelial tumors after surgical resection, including 30 BEOT and 58 MEOT patients, were divided into a training group (n = 62) and a test group (n = 26).The clinical and conventional MRI features were retrospectively reviewed. The texture features of tumors, based on T2-weighted imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging, and contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging, were extracted using MaZda software and the three top weighted texture features were selected by using the Random Forest algorithm. A non-texture logistic regression model in the training group was built to include those clinical and conventional MRI variables with p value < 0.10. Subsequently, a combined model integrating non-texture information and texture features was built for the training group. The model, evaluated using patients in the training group, was then applied to patients in the test group. Finally, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to assess the diagnostic performance of the models.
Results:
The combined model showed superior performance in categorizing BEOTs and MEOTs (sensitivity, 92.5%; specificity, 86.4%; accuracy, 90.3%; area under the ROC curve [AUC], 0.962) than the non-texture model (sensitivity, 78.3%; specificity, 84.6%; accuracy, 82.3%; AUC, 0.818). The AUCs were statistically different (p value = 0.038). In the test group, the AUCs, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 0.840, 73.3%, 90.1%, and 80.8% when the non-texture model was used and 0.896, 75.0%, 94.0%, and 88.5% when the combined model was used.
Conclusion
MRI-based texture features combined with clinical and conventional MRI features may assist in differentitating between BEOT and FIGO stage I/II MEOT patients.

Objective:To analyze the clinical efficacy of bone transport with unilateral external fixation in the treatment of massive tibial bone defects.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to review the 21 patients with massive tibial bone defects who had been treated by bone transport with unilateral external fixation from February 2017 to January 2022 at Department of Trauma Orthopedics, Ganzhou People's Hospital. There were 14 males and 7 females with a mean age of (46.3 ± 11.3) years. Causes for bone defects: trauma ( n=5), resection of bone non-union ( n=9), resection of infected bone ( n=6) and resection of bone tumor ( n=1). The mean bone defect length was (8.3 ± 1.7) cm. Bone transport started from 10 to 12 days after operation, with a speed of 1 mm/d, and was completed in 4 times. X-ray films were reviewed every 2 weeks. The bone union time, external fixation time (EFT), external fixation index (EFI), docking site situation and complications were recorded. The clinical efficacy was assessed by Paley score. Results:All patients were followed-up for a mean time of (13.5 ± 5.5) months. The mineralization of regenerated bone was good. The bone union time was (9.6 ± 2.2) months, the EFT (10.3 ± 4.0) months, and the EFI (1.3 ± 0.4) months/cm. All docking sites got united. The docking sites were cleaned in 14 patients, of whom simple compression with external fixation was performed in 5 and bone grafts at the docking sites in 9. Postoperative nail tract infection was observed in 6 cases, tibial alignment deviation in 1 case, foot drop deformity in 5 cases, horseshoe varus foot deformity in 1 case, toe flexion deformity in 3 cases, and refracture after removing the external fixation in 1 case. By the Paley score, the bony outcomes were rated as excellent in 16 and as good in 5 cases. The functional outcomes were excellent in 10, good in 7, and acceptable in 4.Conclusion:Bone transport with unilateral external fixation is an effective treatment for massive tibial bone defects, showing advantages of easy operation and convenient carry.

Objective:
To establish the in vitro porcine gastric model of submucosal eminence lesion and to evaluate its application to endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD).
Methods:
Silicone rubber impression materials and steel balls with diameters of 1 cm, 2 cm, and 3 cm were used to make three pairs of spherical cavities. And then raw ground beef was put into spherical cavities and boiled for 20 minutes to make spherical mass models. Six isolated porcine stomach with esophagus and duodenum were selected. The mass models with diameters of 1 cm, 2 cm and 3 cm were imbedded respectively into the submucosa of fundus, body, and antrum of porcine stomach through the incision on serosal layer. The submucosal masses were observed by endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasonography and ESD was performed.
Results:
A total of 18 mass models were constructed in 6 porcine stomachs, of which 17 models were successfully established and 1 failed. Typical endoscopic characteristics of gastric submucosal eminence lesions were found in 17 models. Endoscopic ultrasonography showed that these models originated from submucosal layer and demonstrated mixed echo. There were no significant differences between mucosa of lesions and that of surrounding areas. ESD was successfully performed in the porcine gastric models of submucosal eminence lesions, and all models were not broken or detached.
Conclusion
The in vitro porcine gastric model of submucosal eminence lesions can well replicate disease status and provide a suitable model for study on endoscopic therapy of submucosal eminence lesion and training of endoscopists.
