The present paper is aimed to explore the origins of Proteus mirabilis (PM) whorl swarming growth phenomenon. The whorl swarming growth phenomenon of PM was observed by changed bacterial culture inoculation time, humidity, vaccination practices, cultured flat placement, magnetic field, pH and other factors. Bacterial ring spiral direction of rotation is counterclockwise and the volatile growth process of PM was whorl swarming growth phenomenon. Spiro fluctuation phenomenon was of high frequency in the sealing tanks by cultured anytime inoculation, wherever inoculation technique applied or not, the presence or absence of the magnetic field, and wherever the dish position was. The experimental results showed that the whorl swarming growth phenomenon of PM requires specific pH environment, in which the facts may be relative to its genetic characteristics and the Earths rotation.

Objective To investigate the change of plasma vitamin D, A and E levels in infant with infantile hepatitis syndrome (IHS) and to provide reliable basis for clinical treatment. Methods Seventy-three infant with IHS (IHS group) from January 2015 to May 2016 and 82 cases of physical examination infant (control group) were enrolled in this study.The levels of plasma vitamin D, A and E were tested and compared between two groups. Results The levels of vitamin D, A and E in IHS group were significantly lower than those in control group:(37.871 ± 20.111) nmol/L vs. (97.708 ± 28.827) nmol/L, (1.082 ± 0.657)μmol/L vs. (1.810 ± 0.517)μmol/L, (21.252 ± 7.596)μmol/L vs. (26.647 ± 6.495)μmol/L, P<0.01 or <0.05. The nutritional status of vitamin D, A and E in two groups had significant differences (P<0.01). Conclusions There have obvious deficiency in fat-soluble vitamin D, A and E in infant with HIS , and vitamin D deficiency is the most obvious. The levels of vitamin D, A and E are the dynamic monitoring indicators of treatment, nutritional status evaluation and long-term complications development.

Objective To analyze the sleep status of infants and young children aged 0～35 months,in order to understand the common sleep problems and possible influencing factors of infants and young children.Methods Healthy infants aged 0～35 months who underwent physical examination in the outpatient Department of Child Health Care,Kunming Children's Hospital from June 2022 to May 2023 were selected as the study subjects.The brief infant sleep questionnaire(BISQ)was completed by their parents.Single factor analysis and Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the sleep status of infants and young children and the factors affecting sleep problems.Results The primary sleeping mode for infants and young children is sleeping with parents(85.6%).The average daytime sleep duration is(3.51±1.75)hours,nighttime sleep is(8.84±1.41)hours,and total daily sleep is(12.37±2.07)hours.Daytime and total sleep duration decrease gradually with increasing age in each age group(P<0.05).27.7%of infants and young children may experience insufficient sleep duration;the prevalence of sleep problems is 79%,with the highest rate of difficulty falling asleep at 75.3%,followed by night waking(72.2%)and sleep rhythm disturbances(19.7%);278 cases(92.7%)involve involuntary falling asleep.Univariate analysis shows that age and sleep initiation method are related to the occurrence of sleep problems in infants and young children(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis suggests that young age and involuntary falling asleep are risk factors for the occurrence of sleep problems.Conclusion The incidence of sleep problems in infants and young children is high,which is related to the young age and involuntary sleep onset.It is recommended to train infants and young children to fall asleep autonomously as early as possible,and strengthen the education of sleep habits in infants and young children to reduce the incidence of sleep problems in infants and young children.

Objective To analyze the changes of vitamin D in children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura(HSP).Methods 130 children with HSP from Kunming Children's Hospital between July 2022-July 2023 were selected as the study subjects and 100 healthy children were selected during the same period as the control group.The blood samples were collected from the children with HSP and the healthy children.The content of vitamin D was measured by Kunming Kingmed Institute for Clinical Laboratory.Results The content of 25(OH)D in children with HSP was lower than that in healthy children,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).The proportion of vitamin D insufficiency in children with HSP was higher than that in healthy children,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).Conclusion The children with HSP are prone to vitamin D insufficiency.Vitamin D supplementation may provide a new method for the treatment of HSP.

Objective To explore the occurrence of adverse reactions to vaccination in children with special health status in Kunming and the corresponding countermeasures.Methods The information data of 952 children with special health conditions who were vaccinated at the Child Healthcare Department of the Kunming Children's Hospital from October 2021 to February 2023 were collected,and descriptive methods were used for epidemiological analysis.Results The detection rate of adverse reactions in children with special health conditions in Kunming was 10.92%(104/952),all of which were mild adverse reactions.The top three vaccines with the highest detection rates of adverse reactions were adsorbed acellular pertussis-diphtheria-tetanus vaccine(Pertussis-Diphtheria-Tetanus),measles-mumps-rubella attenuated live vaccine(Measles-Mumps-Rubella),and meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine group A and C(Meningococcal A+C),with detection rates of 7.00%,4.14%,and 3.08%,respectively.The detection rate of adverse reactions in children with premature birth,allergy,and anemia after vaccination was higher,with detection rates of 13.87%,11.03%,and 10.05%,respectively.The detection rate of adverse reactions after more than two vaccinations was 73.08%,which was higher than the first vaccination detection rate of 26.92%.The clinical manifestations of vaccine adverse reactions were mainly fever,redness,and induration,with detection rates of 39.42%,21.15%,and 18.27%,respectively.The detection rate of adverse reactions in children with special health conditions under the age of two was higher,accounting for 75.00%.The detection rate of adverse reactions within 24 hours after vaccination was higher,accounting for 62.50%.After timely symptomatic treatment and follow-up observation,all adverse reactions in children with special health conditions after vaccination recovered within 7 days.Conclusion Adverse reactions after vaccination in children with special health conditions in Kunming are predominantly mild.The detection rate of adverse reactions post-vaccination for pertussis,measles,mumps,and meningococcal A+C is notably high.Children under 2 years old with premature birth,allergy,and anemia are more likely to have adverse reactions after vaccination.These adverse reactions typically manifest within 24 hours post-vaccination and resolve within 7 days.

ObjectiveTo investigate the psychometric features of MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery （MCCB） in adolescents with bipolar disorder， so as to evaluate its appropriateness for the measurement of cognitive deficits in adolescents with bipolar disorder. MethodsAdolescents with bipolar disorder （n=38）， adolescents with major depressive episode （n=40） and healthy controls （n=41） matched on age， sex and educational background were enrolled. Adolescents with bipolar disorder were assessed using Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale （MoCA） and MCCB at baseline and 2 weeks later， while the rest were only assessed using MCCB at baseline. Thereafter， the psychometric features of MCCB such as internal consistency， test-retest reliability and criterion-related validity， discriminant validity and structural validity were evaluated using Cronbach's α coefficient， Pearson correlation analysis， analysis of covariance and confirmatory factor analysis. Results①The Cronbach's α coefficient of MCCB in adolescents with bipolar disorder was 0.784 at baseline and 0.773 at two weeks later， respectively. ②Among adolescents with bipolar disorder， the test-retest reliability over a two-week interval of each dimension in MCCB ranged from 0.630 to 0.812 （P<0.01）. ③ The criterion-related validity denoted that the score of short-term memory domain in MoCA was positively correlated with the speed of processing， verbal learning and working memory in MCCB （r=0.487， 0.522， P<0.05 or 0.01）. ④ Discriminant validity analysis implied that the scores of the processing speed， attention/vigilance， working memory， verbal learning and memory， visual learning and memory， reasoning and problem solving in MCCB yielded statistical differences among adolescents with bipolar disorder， adolescents with major depressive episode and healthy controls （F=3.790~7.243， P<0.01）. ⑤ Exploratory factor analysis showed that cumulative total variance contribution rate of MCCB amounted to 71.65% of four factors， and the confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the ideal 7-factor model had poor structural validity. ConclusionMCCB has good internal consistency， retest reliability and acceptable validity in adolescents with bipolar disorder.
