Objective To investigate the early surgical outcomes of 86 patients with complete atrioventricular septal defect.Methods Between January 2007 and December 2014,consecutive 86 cases received surgical repair in our department.There were 44 male patients,and 42 female patients.Two-patch repair was performed in 69 cases,and modified single-patch repair in 17 cases.The mean age,height,and weight at the time of operation were (32.3 ± 46.5)months with a range from 1 month to 17 years,(82.1 ±27.6) cm with a range from 53 to 165 cm,and (10.8 ± 8.7) kg with a range from 4.1 to 43 kg,respectively.Rastelli A type was found in 67 cases,B type in 15 cases,and C type in 4 cases.Down's syndrome was complicated in 6 cases.Preoperative mild regurgitation of common atrioventricular valve was shown in 32 cases,moderate regurgitation in 38 cases,and moderate to severe regurgitation in 16 cases.Mild pulmonary hypertension was observed in 15 cases,moderate in 54 cases,and severe in 17 cases.Results After operation,all patients were sent into intensive care units (ICU).The mean duration mechanical ventilation,ICU stay,and hospitalization were (30.9 ± 47.7) h with a range from 2.5 to 244 h,(87.7 ± 76.8) h with a range from 14 to 306 h,and (16.4 ±9.2)d with a a range from 6 to 50 d,respectively.We encountered 4 operatively mortalities (4.7％),including 3 in two-patch repair group,and 1 in modified single-patch repair group.The cause of death was mitral regurgitation.Conclusions Modified single-patch and two-patch technique have a satisfied early outcomes.

ObjectiveTo investigate the misdiagnostic reason and treatment of the syndrom of splenic flexure of colon(SSFC). MethodsThe clonical data of 21 patients with SSFC admitted from May 1993 to May 2001 were retrospectively analysed. ResultsThese patients aged from 51 to 88 years old with a median age of 67.8years.Clinical manifestalion was repetitive stomach pain, abdominal distension, constipation, etc. Double contrast radiology of colon demonstrated that too high fixation site of colon of splenic flexure, volvulus of colon of splenic flexure, and displacement of colon usually occurred together with transverse or sigmoid colon redundant.All of them were cured by cololysis of colon of splenic flexure, redundant partial colectomy and managing other companying diseases.Postoperative pathological diagnoses were chronic colitis.Followed up was done for 6 months to 6 years, all of them released from primary symptoms. ConclusionsThe main misdiagnostic reason of SSFC is less understanding of SSFC and did not take double contrast radiology of colon. By way of cololysis of splenic flexure, redundant colon resection and managment other companying abdominal diseases, most patients with SSFC may expect satisfactory treatment effects.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of modified Shengjiang Powder acupoint application on hypertension patients with phlegm-heat syndrome. Methods:A total of 61 patients in Shijiazhuang hospital of traditional chinese medicine (TCM) meeting the inclusion criteria from September 2018 to September 2019 were randomly divided into two groups, the treatment group was 30 cases, the control group was 31 cases. The control group was given Amlodipine Besylate Tablets orally, and the treatment group added modified Shengjiang Powder acupoint application, and both groups were treated for 4 weeks. TCM syndrome scores were performed before and after treatment, and 24 h ambulatory blood pressure were measured with an ambulatory blood pressure monitor, including daytime mean systolic blood pressure (dMSBP), daytime mean diastolic blood pressure (dMDBP), night time mean systolic blood pressure (nMSBP), and night time mean diastolic blood pressure (nMDBP), 24-hour mean systolic blood pressure (24 hMSBP), 24-hour mean diastolic blood pressure (24 hMDSBP) and blood pressure circadian rhythm detection. Results:After treatment, the nMSBP and 24 hMSBP in the treatment group were significantly lower than those control group ( t values were -2.331,-1.511, P values were 0.045, 0.033), the blood pressure circadian rhythm [(8.87 ± 8.33)% vs. (6.94 ± 6.12)%, t=1.034] of the treatment group was significantly higher than those of the control group ( P<0.05); mdizziness, headache, head wraps, vomiting, sputum salivation, upset, mouth pain, insomnia scores of the treatment group after treatment were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The modified Shengjiang Powder acupoint application can reduce the blood pressure level of hypertension patients with phlegm-heat syndrome, especially for the improvement of night blood pressure, and improve the clinical symptoms.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of Down syndrome (DS) on surgical management in patients with congenital heart defects (CHD). METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data from 35 children with DS and CHD, who underwent cardiac surgery between 2004 and 2009. The data on surgical mortality, complications and follow-up results are emphasized. RESULTS: All of the patients underwent primary repair. One child (2.9%) with DS and complete atrioventricular septal defect (CAVSD) died early postoperatively because of pulmonary hypertension. Two patients (5.7%) had low cardiac output syndrome, and 15 (42.9%) suffered pulmonary complications. III degree atrioventricular block (AVB) occurred in 4 patients (11.5%). Thirty children who were followed up 10 months to 6 years [(3.8±1.1) years] are in NYHA class I or II. There were no reoperations or later death. CONCLUSION CHD in DS children can be repaired with a low risk of mortality, although a high incidence of severe infections and III degree AVB can result in a complicated postoperative course. The results of mid-term follow up are satisfactory.

Objective: To explore the gene lifestyle interaction of ATP2B1-eNOS pathway gene polymorphisms on blood pressure. Methods: Using the convenient cluster sampling method, a total of 872 junior middle school students from 3 school in July to August 2019, were included in the final analysis. The survey included questionnaire investigation, anthropometry measurement and blood sample collection. After DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples, the gene polymorphisms ( ATP2B1 gene rs 17249754 and rs 2070759, eNOS gene rs 1799983 and rs 2070744) were genotyped. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between gene polymorphism and blood pressure phenotypes. Results: The prevalence of high blood pressure was 9.52 % in adolescents(9.15% in boys and 9.87% in girls),with no significant sex difference ( χ 2=0.13, P =0.72). There were statistically significant differences between boys and girls in age, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), body mass index (BMI) classification, birth weight, daily school physical exercise time and daily playing video games time ( P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that, eNOS gene rs 2070744 polymorphism was associated with high blood pressure (HBP) under the recessive model, and the risk of HBP in CC genotype carriers were higher than that TT/TC genotype carriers ( OR=3.88, 95%CI =1.00-15.02, P < 0.05 ). The results of gene lifestyle interaction showed that ATP2B1 gene rs 2070759 polymorphism gene had an interaction with the time of physical exercise in school ( P interaction =0.05). In the subgroup with daily physical exercise time at sch ool ＜1 hour , the TT/TG genotype carriers were associated with increased risk of HBP compared with GG genotype carriers( OR= 2.65 , 95%CI =1.11-6.30, P <0.05). But in the subgroup with daily physical exercise time in school ≥1 hour, rs 2070759 was not significantly associated with HBP. Conclusion eNOS/rs 2070744 polymorphisms are associated with risk of HBP among adolescents. There is significant interaction between ATP2B1 gene rs 2070759 polymorphism and physical exercise time in school on HBP. Adolescents should spend more time on physical activity in school, which will help to maintain normal blood pressure level.

Objective:To isolate and culture WU polyomavirus (WUPyV), and to analyze the genome-wide evolutionary patterns, homology and population dynamics.Methods:Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the nasopharyngeal aspirate samples of hospitalized children with respiratory tract infection in Beijing Friendship Hospital during 2020 to 2022. Primary human airway epithelial cells cultured at the air-liquid interface were used to isolate and culture WUPyV. Whole genome sequence of the isolated strain was obtained by Sanger sequencing. For phylogenetic and evolutionary dynamics analysis, the whole genome was compared with the published whole genome sequences in GenBank database.Results:The detection rate of WUPyV was 4.7% (31/659) during 2020 to 2022, and a clinical strain BJ0593 of WUPyV type Ⅲc was successfully isolated. The homology of the whole genome and gene fragments of WUPyV was high. The average evolutionary rate of VP2 gene was about 1.256×10 -4 substitution/site every year, and the population dynamics of WUPyV tended to be flat in the last decade. Conclusions:This study successfully isolated a clinical WUPyV type Ⅲ strain for the first time, which provided the basis for further investigation on the molecular evolution and pathogenicity of WUPyV.
