Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2009;28(6):460-461
Objective To explore the relationship between acute organophosphate poisoning and atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods Three hundred and twenty-two acute organophosphorus poisoning of elderly patients treated from January 2000 to June 2008 in our hospital were analyzed. Among these patients, 36 cases with AF were selected as case group and 38 age-gender-matched cases without AF were selected as control group. Serum cholinesterase (ChE), myocardial damage markers such as creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase-MB isoenzyme (CK-MB) and Troponin- Ⅰ (cTn-Ⅰ) were compared between the two groups. Results ChE was decreased in the two groups, and ChE was lower in case group than in control group [(1126. 42±1047.02) vs. (1604.82±934.06)U/L, t= 2.07, P=0. 0414]. CK, CK-MB and cTn-Ⅰ were increased in different degree in the two groups. There was no difference in CK between the two groups [(609.97±597.84) U/L vs. (462.84± 530. 71)U/L, t= 1. 121, P= 0. 266]. CK-MB and cTn-I were higher in case group than in control group [(97.31±104.50) vs. (55. 16±69.62)U/L, t=2. 052,P=0. 0438; (2.39±0. 88) vs. (1.81± 1.38) μg/L, t = 2. 132, P = 0. 036, respectively9 . Conclusions AF caused by acute organophosphate poisoning may be related to the decrease of ChE activity, acetylcholine accumulation and myocardial injury.

OBJECTIVE For the reasonable use of antibacterial drugs, drug resisitance diversity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was studied in our hospital. METHODS Antibacterial activity to all P. aeruginosa collected in four years from 2004 to 2007 were determined by K-B test, and data were analyzed by WHONET software. RESULTS The resistance rate to ampicllin, cefazolin and cefoteton were 100.0%, but low to ceftrazidime, cefoperazone and cefoperazone/sulbactam(3.2% in 2007). The resistance rate to levofloxacin increased year by year, while that to ciprofloxacin descreased from 15.6% to 9.6%.The resistance rate to gentamicin and amikacin descreased from 20.0% to 16.4%,and from 11.1% to 4.8%, respectively. The resistance rate to imipenem and meropenem accounted for about 10.0%, which was as same as ceftazidine. CONCLUSIONS The resistance of P. aeruginosa in our hospital is stable. Clinician should choose right antibacterial drugs on the basis of the test for antibacterial sensitivity and the pharmacological characteristis to improve curative effect and decrease the resistance of bacteria.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of the treatment of chronic symptomatic internal carotid artery long?segmental occlusion. Methods Fifty?one cases of chronic symptomatic internal carotid artery long?segmental occlusion (arterial occlusion more than 2 anatomical segments) who were treated with hybrid surgery (plaque located at the carotid sinus) or endovascular revascularization (plaque located at the distal end of the internal carotid artery occlusion) from May 2015 to May 2018 were reviewed. Recanalization, perioperative complications, stroke events, and reocclusion events during the follow?up period were recorded. Results The occlusion was recanalized successfully in 45 of 51 patients (88.2%, 45/51), 6 patients failed because the guidewire could not cross the distal arterial occlusion. And the technical success rate was 96.0% (24/25) in hybrid surgery and 80.8% (21/26) in endovascular revascularization. Perioperative complications occurred in 2 patients who underwent combined endovascular treatment. One patient had a small branch embolism due to intraoperative thrombus shift, and 1 patient had large area cerebral infarction. The complications occurred in 2 patients who underwent thybrid surgery, including 1 case of internal carotid cavernous fistula and 1 case of acute reocclusion of internal carotid artery. Forty?four patients with successful operation received clinical follow?up, with the median follow?up time of 24 months (7-43 months). No recurrent stroke and death occurred during the follow?up period. Clinical symptoms were improved in 34 cases. Totally 44 patients received imaging follow?up, and during the median imaging follow?up time of 8 month (4-28 months), 6 cases had reocclusion, and 2 cases had restenosis. Conclusion The treatment of chronic symptomatic internal carotid artery long?segmental occlusion is technically feasible and safety with good short?term efficacy. However, its exact efficacy remains to be confirmed by long?term follow?up studies with large samples.

ObjectiveTo explore the relationships between internet gaming disorder (IGD), interpersonal needs, loneliness, and depression in adolescents through the construction of a chain mediation model, to clarify the underlying mechanisms of these associations, and to provid a theoretical basis for depression prevention and intervention. MethodsBased on the data of the 7th Population Census, using convenient sampling method 1 106 adolescents aged between 10‒19 years in South China (176), North China (147), Central China (332), and East China (451) were selected to conduct a cross-sectional survey, with a ratio of 1∶1∶1.5∶2.5. The survey was conducted with a questionnaire consisting of general information (sex, age, grade, parents’ education level), the Chinese version of the IGDS9-SF, the INQ-15, the short-form of the ULS-8 and the PHQ-9 were used to evaluate the depression status of adolescents. Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between the variables. A multiple-mediator model was constructed using IBM SPSS Statistics 22.0 PROCESS to examine the mediating effects of interpersonal needs and loneliness on the relationship between IGD and depression. The significance of the chain mediating effect was tested using the Bootstrap method. ResultsOverall, 39.06% (432/1 106) adolescents experienced depression. The incidence of depression among adolescents with smoking and without smoking was 62.50% and 38.36%, respectively. Similarly, the incidence of depression among adolescents with alcohol consuming and without alcohol consuming was 61.94% and 35.94%, respectively. There were statistically significant differences between IGD, interpersonal needs, loneliness, and depression (P<0.01). The chain mediation model demonstrated a good fit, and the bootstrap test showed that the 95%CI of each mediation path did not include 0, indicating significant mediation effects. The overall effect was 0.337. The direct effect of IGD on depression was significant (effect value=0.138, 95%CI:0.102-0.173, P<0.001). The mediation effects included three paths: ① IGD →interpersonal needs → depression (effect value=0.073, P<0.05), accounting for 21.47% of the total effect;② IGD→ loneliness → depression (effect value=0.093, P<0.05), accounting for 27.35%; and ③ IGD → interpersonal needs → loneliness → depression (effect value=0.036, P<0.05), accounting for 10.59%. ConclusionInterpersonal needs and loneliness independently and jointly mediate the relationship between IGD and depression among adolescents. To reduce depression and improve mental health in this population, measures should be taken to prevent and intervene in IGD, address adolescents’ social and emotional needs, enhance satisfaction of interpersonal needs, and reduce loneliness.
