Objective To investigate the clinical features and the imaging examination changes of bacterial meningitis in children of different age groups,and to offer theoretical basis for the clinic diagnosis of bacterial meningi-tis. Methods The sick children with bacterial meningitis treated in Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center from January 2011 to June 2013,were recruited and divided into three groups according to the age,including newborns group,infants group and more than 1 year group. Eighty-nine cases with purulent meningitis were recruited,included 58 males and 31 females. Among them,there were 34 cases in the newborns group,41 cases in the infants group and 14 ca-ses in the more than 1-year group. The information on the clinical features,laboratory examination and the imaging ex-amination were summarized and analyzed,and were compared among the 3 groups. Results (1)Among them,54 cases with high fever,44 cases with respiratory symptoms,12 cases with alimentary tract symptoms. (2)The major neurologi-cal features included convulsions(44 cases,49. 4%),fatigue(36 cases,40. 4%),vomiting(21 cases,23. 6%),cervical rigidity(9 cases,10. 1%),fontanel full(7 cases,7. 9%),headache(6 cases,6. 7%),limb paralysis(5 cases,5. 6%). The percentage of high fever,vomiting,headache,cervical rigidity in the more than 1 year group were significantly more than those of the newborns group and the infants group(χ2=10. 093,12. 063,34. 466,7. 177,all P<0. 05). (3)Among them,whitebloodcell(WBC)accountswerefrom2.20to60.60×109/L,themeanwas(16.49±10.37)×109/L.Hy-persensitive C-reaction protein concentration in blood was 4. 00 to 376. 53 g/L,the mean was (131. 07±86. 91) g/L. In cerebrospinal fluid(CSF),WBC accounts were from 1 to 21 800×106/L,the mean was (910. 05±274. 07)×106/L, the glucose concentration from 0. 00 to 4. 50 mmol/L,the mean (1. 72±1. 03)mmol/L,the protein concentration from 0. 42 to 4. 89 g/L,the mean was(1. 64±1. 03)g/L. In 40 cases with atypical CSF change, 23 cases with CSF glucose ratio(CSF glucose/blood glucose) less than or equal to 0. 4, and 15 cases with blood cultures positive. (4)The image examination showed magnetic resonance imaging( MRI) abnormalities in 51/75 cases,computerized tomography( CT) scan abnormalities in 15/30 cases. The percentage of convulsions,the brain MRI abnormalities and the MRI display rate of bacterial meningitis in the infants group were significantly more than those of the newborns group and the more than 1 year group(χ2=11. 768,9. 047,7. 674,all P<0. 05). The display rate of meningitis and subdural hydroma by the brain MRI were significantly more than those of the head CT scan(χ2=7. 430,5. 291,all P<0. 05). Conclusions Be-cause of the atypical clinical features of bacterial meningitis in newborn and infant, lumber puncture should be per-formed in all doubtful cases who had a fever and/or seizure. CSF glucose less than or equal to 0. 4 of simultaneously ob-tained blood glucose value,the enhanced MRI sequence or blood cultures were useful for the likelihood of meningitis,if CSF chemistries and cytology vary atypically. The MRI sequence can significantly mostly improve the display rate of bacterial meningitis than the enhance CT.

Objective To investigate the effect of propofol and midazolam anesthesia in the treatment of persistent state of intractable epilepsy in children.Methods A total of fifty children with intractable epilepsy were selected in Guangzhou Women and Children''s Medical Center from May 2011 to May 2016,and were divided into propofol group and midazolam group according to the method of anesthesia,each group 25 cases.In the treatment,continuous EEG and ECG monitoring were applied in both groups,and the changes in hemodynamics were recorded in order to compare the medication and treatment effects.Results After epilepsy was under control and drug was withdrawn,the heart rate (HR),systolic pressure (SBP),diastolic pressure (DBP) of the two groups were all reduced,lower than the data collected before the treatment,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05);in the propofol group,HR and SBP after control were (93.21±17.61) time/min and (92.44±12.84) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa),lower than those of the midazolam group((109.84±18.41) time/min,(101.93±14.79) mmHg,t=3.264,2.423,P<0.05);the medication time,control time,intubation time of the propofol group were all shorter than those of the midazolam group ((13.21±2.14) h vs.(15.39±3.39) h,(3.47±0.89) min vs.(8.79±1.21) min,(2.03±0.79) d vs.(6.31±1.34) d,t=2.719,17.709,13.757,P<0.05);the total effective rate in the propofol group was significantly higher than that of the midazolam group (97.5%(39/40) vs.82.5%(33/40),χ2=5.357,P=0.021).Conclusion Propofol is effective in the treatment of persistent state of intractable epilepsy in children with good sedative effect,and can also reduce children''s resistance,therefore it''s worth promoting and applying into treatment.

Objective Breast intraductal papillary lesion ( BIPL) has a low incidence but a high rate of malignancy .This study discusses the diagnostic value of conventional ultrasonography ( US) combined with ultrasonic elastography ( UE) for breast papil-lary lesion. Methods We analyzed the preoperative ultrasound data of 48 patients with 63 BIPLs, and classified them according to the characteristics of two-dimensional ultrasound (2DUS) images.Then we compared their color Doppler ultrasound characteristics and UE features with the pathological results . Results Based on the 2DUS findings, the BIPLs were divided into 4 types.The sensitivi-ty, specificity, and accuracy of conventional US +UE in the diagnosis of BIPL were 93.2%, 88.9%, and 90.5%, respectively, markedly higher than those of conventional US (75.6%, 66.7%, and 73.0%), with statistically significant differences in the areas under the curve between the two methods (0.918 vs 0.838, P<0.05). Conclusion Conventional US combined with UE can im-prove the diagnosis of breast intraductal papillary lesion .

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of microneedle combined with Lauromacrogol on skin capillary network.

METHODS24 male Leghone (1.5-2.0 kg in weight) were randomly divided into three groups as group A (microneedle combined with Lauromacrogol), B (microneedle combined with physiological saline) , and C(control). The cockscombs were treated. The specimens were taken on the 7th, 14th, 21th , and 28th day postoperatively. HE staining, immunohistochemical staining and special staining were performed for study of the number of capillary and collagen I/III , as well as elastic fibers.

RESULTSThe color of cockscombs in group A became lightening after treatment. The number of capillary decreased as showing by HE staining. The collagen I and III in group B was significantly different from that in group A and C (P < 0.05). Special staining showed proliferation of elastic fibers in group B.

CONCLUSIONSIt indicates that microneedle combined with Lauromacrogol could effectively reduce the capillary in cockscomb without any tissue fibrosis. Microneedle can stimulate the proliferation of elastic fiber, so as to improve the skin ageing process.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors affecting the occurrence of perioperative complications in patients with locally progressive gastric cancer undergoing radical gastric cancer treatment.Methods:The clinical data of 129 patients with locally progressive gastric cancer from January 2017 to December 2019 in Shaanxi Provincial People′s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, including 98 males and 31 females, with an age ranged from 27 to 79 years and a mean age of (60.61±10.00) years. The postoperative complications of 129 patients with gastric cancer were firstly counted, and then the relationship between clinical data such as patients′ general condition, intraoperative status and pathological indexes and the occurrence of perioperative complications was analyzed by using univariate analysis, and significant factors were included in the logistic regression model for multifactor analysis to study the independent risk factors for the occurrence of perioperative complications.Results:Of the 129 patients, 25 cases (19.38%) had postoperative complications, including 10 cases (7.75%) with Clavien-Dindo classification combined with grade Ⅲ or higher complications. The results of univariate analysis suggested ACCI score >4 (30.76% vs 68.00%, χ2=11.86, P=0.001), body mass index ≥25 kg/m 2 (24.03% vs 60.00%, χ2=12.18, P=0.001), and preoperative hypoproteinemia (17.30% vs 36.00%, χ2=4.25, P=0.039), vascular cancer embolism (14.42% vs 40.00%, χ2=7.70, P=0.006), operative time ≥ 400 min (26.92% vs 52.00%, χ2=5.84, P=0.016), intraoperative bleeding ≥ 400 mL (13.46% vs 44.00%, χ2=12.03, P=0.001) were risk factors for the development of perioperative complications in patients with locally progressive gastric cancer. Multifactorial analysis showed that ACCI score >4, body mass index ≥25 kg/m 2, preoperative hypoproteinemia, vascular cancer embolism, and intraoperative bleeding ≥400 mL were independent risk factors for the occurrence of perioperative complications in patients with locally progressive gastric cancer ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The occurrence of perioperative complications in locally progressive gastric cancer hands was closely associated with ACCI score, body mass index, preoperative hypoproteinemia, vascular cancer embolism and intraoperative bleeding. ACCI score is expected to be a predictor of the occurrence of perioperative complications in patients with locally progressive gastric cancer.

Objective:To compare surgery-related indicators, patient recovery status, perioperative complications and risk factors affecting the occurrence of postoperative grade Ⅲ or higher complications in patients undergoing laparoscopic gastric mesenchymal tumor surgery with different visceral fat areas.Methods:Clinical data of 116 patients with gastric interstitial tumor in Shaanxi Provincial People′s Hospital from April 2014 to June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 44 male patients and 72 female patients, with patient aged from 25 to 88 years old and the mean age was (61.8±10.7) years, including 54 patients in the high VFA group and 62 patients in the low VFA group. SPSS 23.0 was used for statistical analysis, and t-test and χ2 test were applied to compare and analyze the patients′ surgery-related indexes, postoperative recovery status, complications within 30 d after surgery and differences in Clavien-Dindo classification of complications, while univariate and multifactorial analyses were used to study the factors affecting the occurrence of postoperative grade Ⅲ or higher complications. Results:Patients in the high VFA group had a higher body mass index than in the low VFA group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=4.48, P<0.001); patients in the high VFA group had longer operative time ( t=2.88, P=0.005), more intraoperative bleeding ( t=2.17, P=0.032), longer period of fasting ( t=2.73, P=0.008), longer time for defecation ( t=4.46, P<0.001) and bowel movement ( t=4.62, P<0.001), and longer postoperative hospital stay ( t=3.43) compared with those in the low VFA group ( t=2.73, P=0.001), prolonged defecation ( t=4.46), prolonged bowel movement ( t=4.62), and prolonged postoperative hospitalization ( t=3.43), with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05); the incidence of postoperative complications was significantly higher in the high VFA group (31.4%) compared with the low VFA group (14.5%) ( χ2=4.78, P=0.029); among them, the incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection was significantly higher in patients in the high VFA group (12.9%) compared with those in the low VFA group (1.6%), and the difference between them was statistically significant ( χ2=4.16, P<0.05); while the differences in postoperative incision-related complications, anastomotic fistula, lower limb venous thrombosis, and intestinal obstruction were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The incidence of postoperative complications above grade Ⅲ of the Clavien-Dindo complication classification was significantly higher in patients in the high VFA group (16.7%) compared with those in the low VFA group (4.8%), and the difference between the two was statistically significant ( χ2=4.35, P<0.05); univariate analysis revealed that operative time ≥300 min and increased VFA were the risk factors for postoperative grade Ⅲ or higher complications, while VFA was not an independent risk factor. Conclusion:Larger visceral fat area increases the difficulty of laparoscopic gastric mesenchymal tumor surgery operation, and also affects patients′ postoperative recovery, leading to increased postoperative complications, but VFA is not an independent risk factor affecting the occurrence of postoperative grade Ⅲ or higher complications in patients with gastric mesenchymal tumor.

With the dramatically increasing detection rate of ground-glass nodules (GGN), exact understanding and treatment strategy of them has become the hottest issue currently. More and more studies have begun to explore the underlying mechanisms of their indolent characteristics and favorable prognosis from the perspectives of molecular evolution and immune microenvironment. GGN has different dominating gene mutations at different evolutional stages. The pure GGN has a lower tumor mutation burden and genomic instability, while a gradually evolutionary feature of genomic mutation along with the pathological progression can be observed. GGN has less infiltration of immune cells, and they are under the pressure of immune surveillance with weakened immune escape. With the increase of solid components, an inhibitory immune microenvironment is gradually established and immune escape is gradually enhanced, leading to rapid tumor growth. Further exploration of the molecular characteristics of GGN will help to more precisely distinguish these highly heterogeneous lesions, which could be helpful to make personalized treatment plans.

Objective:To discuss the clinical significance of structural chest zones for gynecomastia.Methods:A total of 687 gynecomastia patients, aged from 14 to 45 years old, with an average age of 27.0, were admitted to the Department of Plastic Surgery, Huashan Hospital Fudan University from January 2012 to December 2018. Simon classification was used to record. Conduct Simon classification according to the preoperative measurement of the chest. Surgical area design, photo analysis, breast ultrasound examination and Derriford appearance scale evaluation were conducted as well. Six zones can be divided as follows: zone 0 nipple-areola zone, zone 1 gynecomastia zone, zone 2 accessory-breast zone, zone 3 lateral-roll zone, zone 4 IMF(inframammary fold) zone, zone T relative-contraindication zone. Positive and lateral images of the chest were taken before and one week, one month, three months, six months, and 12 months after the operation, and the preoperative and postoperative changes of each structural zone were compared. At the follow-up of 12 months after the operation, patients’ satisfaction was counted.Results:687 patients, according to Simon classification, were divided toⅠ degreein 65 cases, Ⅱa degree in 257 cases, Ⅱb degreein 194 cases, Ⅲ degree in 171 cases. Before operation, except for Simon Ⅰ degree in 65 cases showed just raised to 0 zone, most of the rest of the patients contains 1 zone raised, 2-4 zones come in different patients. After liposuction and glandular stripping were performed in different zones, postoperative follow-up was conducted one week, one month, three months, six months, and 12 months after the operation. The dynamic observation was made of the change process of chest shape shaping during the follow-up, whether there were postoperative complications, poor local shape, or bad regional shape. Evaluation results of patient satisfaction 12 months after surgery: among the 687 patients, there were 634 patients with 10 points of satisfaction, and 53 patients with 8-9 points, including 48 patients of zone 0 and zone 1, three patients of zone 3, and 2 patients of zone 4.Conclusions:The structural chest zones of gynecomastia provides plastic surgeons and male patients with simple, intuitive, and highly recognized preoperative evaluation, which can provide appropriate, simplified, and accurate guidance for the selection of surgical methods.
