Objective:To understand the etiology and clinical characteristics of hospitalized severe community-acquired pneumonia(SCAP) in Changchun, and provide scientific basis for its etiology diagnosis and targeted treatment.Methods:The study subjects included 618 children with clinical diagnosis of SCAP who were hospitalized from January 2016 to December 2019.We collected pharyngeal swabs and alveolar lavage fluid from children.Virus isolation, bacterial culture, time-of-flight mass spectrometry, PCR/RT-PCR, colloidal gold method and Optochin test were used to detect the antigen, nucleic acid and protein profiles in the specimen.Results:There were more boys than girls in hospitalized children with SCAP.The peak age of onset was 7 to 12 months.Most cases occurred in winter and spring.The highest detection rate of SCAP virus was 56.15%(347/618); 73.49%(255/347) were positive for one virus, among which the top five were respiratory syncytial virus (27.8%), influenza A virus (23.9%), influenza B virus (16.1%), rhinovirus (12.2%) and metapneumovirus (10.2%). Two viruses were positive for 19.88%(69/347); three viruses were positive for 4.32%(15/347); four viruses were positive for 2.31%(8/347). Atypical microbial infections were 29.77%(184/618), of which Mycoplasma pneumoniae accounted for 95.65%(176/184). Bacterial infections were 17.31%(107/618), mainly Streptococcus pneumoniae(39.25%, 42/107) and Staphylococcus aureus(24.30%, 26/107). The mixed infection of multiple pathogens was 7.61%(47/618), among which the mixed infection rates of Mycoplasma pneumonia with Streptococcus pneumoniae, virus were 40.43% and 34.04%, respectively.High fever, faster breathing, and perioral cyanosis were risk factors for SCAP, with OR and 95% CI of 7.71 and 4.56-13.04, 2.43 and 2.02-2.93, 3.53 and 2.56-4.86, respectively.Viral co-infection occurred in 36.96%(34/92) of complications such as heart failure, toxic encephalopathy, and myocardial damage; Mycoplasma pneumoniae and other pathogens co-infected 35.29% of children with pleural effusion. Conclusion:The pathogens of SCAP in Changchun are mainly viruses notably, respiratory syncytial virus is the dominant pathogen, followed by Mycoplasma pneumoniae.The bacterial pathogen is mainly Streptococcus pneumoniae.High fever, faster breathing, and cyanosis around the mouth are risk factors for severe pneumonia.Multi-pathogen mixed infection is prone to serious complications.
9.Advances in optical coherence elastography in ophthalmology
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2023;41(10):1043-1048
Optical coherence elastography (OCE) is a novel technique developed in recent years to investigate the biomechanical properties of tissues, similar to optical coherence tomography angiography, a functional version of optical coherence tomography.OCE utilizes load excitation to detect the mechanical response of ocular tissues, facilitating quantitative analysis of stress-strain curves, Young's modulus, and other biomechanical indicators.It also generates two-dimensional/three-dimensional elastic maps of the tissues.With its noninvasive, high-resolution, real-time, rapid, and three-dimensional imaging capabilities, OCE provides both structural and mechanical information about ocular tissues, opening up new dimensions in ocular disease diagnosis and pathogenesis research.This article introduced the technical classification and research status of OCE, and highlighted its research progress in ophthalmology, including its applications in assisted refractive surgery design, keratoconus patient screening, assessment of corneal cross-linking surgery efficacy, cataract diagnosis and grading, measurement of retinal biomechanics, and research into myopia pathogenesis.The challenges and opportunities for clinical translation of OCE in ophthalmology were also discussed.

Objective To discuss the controversial role of breast milk in late-onset group B Streptococcus (GBS) infections.Methods This study reported a case of recurrent late-onset GBS sepsis with the suspicion of breast milk transmission in an extremely preterm infant born at 22+6 weeks who was treated at the University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital in September 2016.Literatures about late-onset GBS cases associated with contaminated breast milk were reviewed to investigate whether GBS could be transmitted through breast milk.Results (1) Case report:A breast-fed extremely preterm infant born at 22+6 gestational weeks suffered from GBS sepsis along with meningitis for the first time on 100 d.The mother was negative for rectovaginal GBS screening.Breast milk wasn't tested as no signs of mastitis were found.The neonate recovered from the first GBS sepsis after 14 days of antibiotic treatment,then returned to breastfeeding.On 126 d,GBS sepsis reoccurred in this baby.Fresh breast milk culture yielded GBS which was identical with the GBS strains isolated from the neonatal blood in antimicrobial susceptibility.After recovery from the second episode,the baby was partially breastfed again without further relapses of late-onset GBS sepsis.(2) Literature review:64 cases of late-onset GBS infections that transmitted via breast milk were retrieved from PubMed,while no Chinese cases had been reported.Clinical data of the 65 cases (including this case) were reviewed and the results revealed that contaminated breast milk was associated with late-onset GBS infections.The reported relapse rate of GBS infections transmitted via breast milk was 25% for two episodes and 7% for three episodes.Conclusions GBS contaminated breast milk could potentially cause late-onset GBS sepsis in infants and further studies are required to identify the underlying mechanisms.
