Objective To discuss the clinical characteristics and prognosis of 15 children with hand foot and mouth disease (HFMD) and acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) who were admitted to Beijing Ditan Hospital during the outbreak of HFMD in 2008. Method The epidemiology, clinical manifestations, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF),magnetic resonance imaging and prognosis of 15 children with HFMD and AFP were retrospectively reviewed. The recovery of the patients' affected extremities were monitored for 4 weeks. Results The mean age of these patients was (22.47 ± 20.68) months (range: 5～72 months). Acute paralysis developed (3.47 ± 1.68) days after the onset of fever and progressed to maximum severity within (1～2) days. Poliomyelitis-like syndrome was observed in all cases. Of the 15 cases, 10 had monoplegia of lower limbs, two had paraplegia, one had monoplegia of upper limbs and two had quadriplegia. In these cases, the muscle power varied from level 0 to level 4, and six even showed no muscle power in their affected extremities. Thirteen cases developed neurologic complications (encephalitis, meningitis or ataxia) and three had transient urinary retention. Cerebrospinal MRI examination in eight cases showed hyperintense lesions on T2-weighted images, predominantly in the impaired anterior horn regions of the spinal cord (C2～C7 for cases with upper extremity impairments and T12～L1 for cases with lower extremity impairments), and displayed long T1 signals and long T2 signals. In addition, the midbrain, brain-stem or medulla was also involved in four cases who also contracted encephalitis or meningitis. The muscle strength in 11 patients with single lower extremity impairment showed improvements in the distal limb muscles within 4～8 days, and the other cases showed recovery 2～3 weeks later. Conclusions HFMD in combination with AFP most commonly occurs in children aged less than 2 years old. Acute paralysis develops during the early stage of infection and progresses to a maximum severity within 2 days. In most cases described here, paralysis occurred in a single lower extremity and recovered more rapidly than those with all four limbs affected or with single upper extremity impairment . MRI examination is particularly valuable for the diagnosis and prognosis of AFP because of its high sensitivity and accuracy.

Objective To construct a radiomics nomogram combining clinical and a radiomics signature for distinguishing type Ⅱpapillary renal cell carcinoma(pRCC)from atypical clear cell renal cell carcinoma(ccRCC).Methods Clinical and CT data of patients with pathologically confirmed type Ⅱ pRCC(62 cases)and atypical ccRCC(56 cases)were analyzed.A random sample was divided into a training set(82 cases)and a test set(36 cases)in a ratio of 7∶3.Clinical factors were screened to construct clinical factor models.A total of 1 595 radiomics features of tumors were extracted from the corticomedullary phase CT images and based on the most effective features to construct a radiomics signature and calculate the radiomics score(Rad-score).A radiomics nomogram was constructed by combining the Rad-score and independent clinical factors.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to assess the clini-cal usefulness of the models.Decision curve analysis(DCA)was used to assess the difference between the models.Results The radiomics signature showed good discrimination in training set area under the curve(AUC)0.894[95％confidence interval(CI)0.834-0.947]and test set AUC 0.879(95％CI 0.774-0.963).The AUC of the clinical factors model in training set and test set were 0.725(95％CI 0.646-0.804)and 0.698(95％CI 0.567-0.819).The AUC of the radiomics nomogram in training set and test set were 0.901(95％CI 0.840-0.953)and 0.901(95％CI 0.809-0.975).DCA demonstrated the radiomics nomogram outmatched the clinical factors model and radiomics signature in the aspects of clinical usefulness.Conclusion Radiomics nomogram based on enhanced CT can provide good prediction of type Ⅱ pRCC and atypical ccRCC preoperatively,improve the diagnostic accuracy and provide guidance for future clinical treatment.

Objective To explore the differential expression of protein in the serum of individuals susceptible to noise induced hearing loss (NIHL) susceptible individuals working in the military tunnel.Methods A total of 40 soldiers from one tunnel construction troop were divided into the susceptible group and the nonsusceptible group.Twenty soldiers were selected for each group.The average age of the susceptible group was 24.79±2.03 years old and their thresholds of the speech and high frequencies were 22.43±8.31 dB HL and 48.55± 11.54 dB HL,respectively.The average age of the nonsusceptible group was 23.67 ± 3.56 years old and their thresholds of the speech and high frequencies were 13.40±4.13 dB HL and 9.40±2.54 dB HL,respectively.Five microliter peripheral venous blood samples were collected from each individual Two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and MALDI-TOF-MS were used to separate and identify the differentially expressed proteins.Results Thirty-seven protein spots differentially expressing between the NIHL susceptible and nonsusceptible were found after 2 DE.Compared by mascort score,10 differential proteins were harvested.Among these,5 peptides including proteasome subunit alpha-5,complement C4-A,haptoglobin,apolipoprotein A-I and vitronectin were upregulated,and other 5 ones,including Lysozyme C,beta-2 glycoprotein-1,pigment epithelium derived factor,35 kDa trypsin inhibitor heavy chain H and transthyretin were downregulated in NIHL susceptible individuals.The differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion The differentially expressed proteins were closely related to oxidative stress responses in susceptible individuals,including proteasome subunit alpha-5,complement C4A,haptoglobin,apolipoprotein A-I,beta-2 glycoprotein-1,pigment epithelium derived factor,35 kDa trypsin inhibitor heavy chain H and transthyretin.They might participate in the occurrence of NIHL through this way.The proteins harvested from this study were expected to be specific candidate serum NIHL susceptibility biomarkers in blood to help screen susceptible individuals.

Objective:To investigate the value of nomogram based on radiomics features of CT enterography (CTE) combined with clinical characteristics to predict secondary loss of response (SLOR) after infliximab (IFX) treatment in patients with Crohn′s disease (CD).Methods:This study was a case-control study. Clinical and imaging data of 155 patients with CD diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from March 2015 to July 2022 were retrospectively collected. The patients were divided into a training set ( n=108) and a testing set ( n=47) in the ratio of 7∶3 by stratified sampling method. All patients were treated according to the standardized protocol and were classified as SLOR (43 in the training set and 18 in the testing set) and non-SLOR (65 in the training set and 29 in the testing set) according to treatment outcome. Based on the data from the training group, independent clinical predictors of SLOR after IFX treatment were screened in the clinical data using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis to establish a clinical model. Intestinal phase images were selected to be outlined layer by layer along the margin of the lesion to obtain the volume of the region of interest to extract the radiomics features. The radiomics features were screened using univariate analysis and the minimum absolute shrinkage and selection operator to establish the radiomics model. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to build a combined clinical-radiomics model based on the screened clinical independent predictors and radiomics characters, then a nomogram was drawn. The predictive efficacy of the 3 models for SLOR after IFX treatment was assessed by receiver operating characteristic curves, and the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated. The decision curve analysis was applied to evaluate the clinical utility of the models. Results:Disease duration ( OR=1.983, 95% CI 1.966-2.000, P=0.046) and intestinal stenosis ( OR=1.246, 95% CI 1.079-1.764, P=0.015) were identified as the independent predictors of SLOR in the clinical data, and a clinical model was established. Totally 9 radiomics features were included in the radiomics model. The AUCs of clinical, radiomics, and combined models for predicting SLOR after IFX treatment in CD patients were 0.691 (95% CI 0.591-0.792), 0.896 (95% CI 0.836-0.955), and 0.910 (95% CI 0.855-0.965) in the training set, and 0.722 (95% CI 0.574-0.871), 0.866 (95% CI 0.764-0.968), and 0.889 (95% CI 0.796-0.982) in the testing set. Decision curve analysis in the testing set showed higher net clinical benefits for both the radiomics model and combined model than the clinical model, and combined model had higher net clinical benefits than the radiomics model over most threshold probability intervals. Conclusions:CTE-based radiomics model can effectively predict SLOR after IFX treatment in patients with CD, and a combined model by incorporating clinical characteristics of disease duration and intestinal stenosis can further improve the predictive efficacy.

2019 novel coronavirus(2019-nCoV) outbreak is one of the public health emergency of international concern.Since the 2019-nCoV outbreak, China has been adopting strict prevention and control measures, and has achieved remarkable results in the initial stage of prevention and control.However, some imported cases and sporadic regional cases have been found, and even short-term regional epidemics have occurred, indicating that the preventing and control against the epidemic remains grim.With the change of the incidence proportion and the number of cases in children under 18 years old, some new special symptoms and complications have appeared in children patients.In addition, with the occurrence of virus mutation, it has not only attracted attention from all parties, but also proposed a new topic for the prevention and treatment of 2019-nCoV infection in children of China.Based on the second edition, the present consensus further summarizes the clinical characteristics and experience of children′s cases, and puts forward recommendations on the diagnostic criteria, laboratory examination, treatment, prevention and control of children′s cases for providing reference for further guidance of treatment of 2019-nCoV infection in children.

Objective:To discuss the diagnosis and treatment of ectopic ureter company with the bladder neck and urethral maldevelopment in children.Methods:The clinical data of the 6 patients admitted to Children’s Hospital affiliated to Chongqing Medical University from September 1993 to April 2019 diagnosed as ectopic ureter company with the bladder neck and urethral maldevelopment were retrospectively reviewed. The 6 children were girls and the median age was 7 years old , ranged from 2 to 15 years old. All children had ectopic ureter, including 3 in left-sided, 1 in right-sided, and 2 in bilateral-sided. Five children presented the intermittent dribbling incontinence and one child presented the continuously incontinence without normal voiding. Through ultrasound, IVP, MRI, cystoscopy and retrograde urography, seven ureters were found ectopic position, including bladder neck in 4 cases, two ureters inserted in the vagina in 2 cases. There were two cases with duplex kidney and 4 cases with renal dysplasia. Preoperative cystoscopy revealed wide and short urethra in 1 case, wide bladder neck combined with wide and short urethra in 4 cases. The surgery type included nephrectomy in cases 1-3, bilateral ureter reimplantation in case 4 who had the bilateral ectopic ureter , bilateral ureter reimplantation and bladder neck reconstruction at the same time in case 5. Nephrectomy associated with bladder neck and urethral reconstruction in case 6.Results:Five patients were followed-up and one patient was lost to follow-up after the first operation. Mean follow-up was 41.2 months (ranging 2 to 84 months). Four patients with bladder neck and maldevelopment that were not solved intraoperatively got reoperations due to incontinence without remission. Case 1, who underwent urethral reconstruction and extension, and urinary incontinence was partially relieved. Case 2 was found to have wide bladder neck deformity, and then retrospectively got bladder neck reconstruction and urethrovaginal fistula repair in 3 years and 5 years later. The urinary incontinence was completely relieved. The ureteral stump of case 3 was resected 2 years after operation due to recurrent urinary tract infection, and then got twice bladder neck and urethral reconstruction in 3 years and 6 years later of nephrectomy. His incontinence was partially relieved. The case 4 got bladder neck and urethral reconstruction in one year after bilateral ureter reimplantation, and incontinence was partially relieved too. Among the two patients underwent combined surgery, the case 5, who got bilateral ureteral bladder replantation combined with bladder neck reconstruction, were lost to follow-up after surgery. The case 6 got dysplasia nephrectomy combined with bladder neck reconstruction and urethroplasty were completely relieved of urinary incontinence.Conclusions:Bladder neck and urethra maldevelopment is one of the main causes of urinary incontinence after surgery in children with ectopic ureter. The diagnosis mainly relies on cystoscopy. The treatment mainly relies on surgery. Bladder neck and urethral reconstruction is expected to be available. If the operative conditions permit, synchronous surgical treatment of ectopic ureter and bladder neck and urethral maldevelopment will get a better prognosis than staging surgery.
