Objective To study the localization of the foramen of Monro on magnetic resonance image (MRI) and its clinical significance.Methods Cranial MRI was observed for 30 normal healthy subjects to study their location,shape and size of the foramen of Monro,as compared to those in 22 patients with hydrocephalus and 14 cases with tumor around their foramen.Results The the foramen of Monro is located between the fornix and the anterior part of thalamus in the normal healthy subjects,with a transverse diameter of 2.8 mm and a vertical diameter of 2.1 mm in average on MRI.Y-shaped structure is formed between their bilateral the foramen of Monro and the 3rd cerebral ventricle.Very obvious changes in shape and size of the foramen of Monro can be observed in patients with hydrocephalus,which sometimes can integrated with the 3rd cerebral ventricle and lateral ventricle,forming a"rabbit-head sign".Meanwhile, imaging of the foramen of Monro varied in patients with tumor around the foramen,depending on its location and size.Conclusions The foramen of Monro has a relative constant position in the brain.Changes in its position,size and shape are important signs suggesting intracranial lesions.An individualized operation plan for a patient should be determined based on those changes.
4.Attaching importance to the screening and full course management of congenital cytomegalovirus infection
Chinese Journal of Clinical Infectious Diseases 2023;16(4):251-255
Congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection is a most common congenital infection, which may seriously affect children’s health. The early diagnosis and timely treatment of cCMV are readily missed due to its concealed symptoms, delayed onset and long disease course, leading to long-term disability of the patients. The current screening method is sensitive, non-invasive, inexpensive and convenient, which can effectively reduce the missed diagnosis of cCMV. This article explains the importance of cCMV screening and full course management, focusing on the screening methods, strategies and current problems, as well as the plans of full course management at different stages.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and epidemiological features of acute respiratory adenovirus infection in children.Methods:Clinical data of 488 children with acute respiratory tract human adenovirus (HAdV) infection admitted in Children’s Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from September 2018 to August 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Nasopharyngeal swabs or nasopharyngeal aspirates (NPAs) were collected and tested by direct immunofluorescence assay. Kruskal Wallis H test was used for quantitative data without normal distribution, and P<0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. The qualitative data were compared by chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test. Bonfereoni chi-square segmentation was performed for comparison between groups, and P<0.007 was considered statistically significant after correction. Results:A total of 488 HAdV positive cases were detected from 7 072 patients with acute respiratory tract infection (6.9%), including 305 males (62.5%) and 183 females (37.5%). The median age of HAdV positive children was 43 months (39 days to 12 years). The detection rate in 6 m-<2 y age group(8.7%, 123/1 408)was significantly higher than those in <6 m group (3.0%, 6/197)and ≥5 y group(4.6%, 89/1 948)( χ2=7.57, 23.98, P all <0.007). The detection rate in 2-<5 y group(7.7%, 270/3 519)was significantly higher than those in <6 m group and ≥5 y group ( χ2=5.809, 19.688, P all <0.007). The peak rate was detected in the winter [12.9%(238/1 840)] which was significantly higher than those in spring (4.7%), summer (3.9%), and autumn(5.5%)( χ2=103.477, 58.986 and 49.926, P<0.007). The average length of hospital stay was (6±4)d(1-41 d). 486 cases (99.5%) were discharged from hospital after treatment, and 2 cases died. There were 111 cases (22.7%) of acute upper respiratory tract infection, 34 cases (7.0%) of bronchitis and 343 cases (70.3%) of pneumonia; and severe pneumonia was diagnosed in 86 cases (25.1%, 86/343). The common clinical manifestations were fever 93.4% (456/488), cough 94.7% (462/488), wheezing 26.2% (128/488) and shortness of breath 14.8% (72/488). 138 cases (28.3%) had extrapulmonary symptoms, 78 cases (16.0%) had underlying diseases, among which congenital heart disease was most common (16, 3.3%). The average duration of fever was(8.8±2.4)d(5-17 d)in 456 fever cases, the duration between 7-10 d in 277 cases and >10 d in 96 cases; and 439 cases had hyperpyrexia(≥39 ℃). The single infection occurred in 275 (56.4%) cases and mixed infection in 213(43.6%) cases. The proportions of fever, hyperpyrexia, fever duration >10 d, severe pneumonia, wheezing and length of hospital stay in mixed infection group were significantly higher than those in the single infection group ( χ2/ Z=11.960, 6.494, 37.209, 72.841 and -8.805, P all <0.05). The length of hospital stay, proportion of fever time>10 d, wheezing, shortness of breath, hypersomnia/poor spirits, serous effusion, extrapulmonary symptoms, mixed infection, and underlying diseases in severe pneumonia group were significantly higher than those in the mild pneumonia group ( χ2/ Z=-9.182, 23.825, 49.094, 143.627, 219.659, 81.327, 8.080, 21.546 and 10.556, P all <0.05). The proportion of severe pneumonia in 6 m to <2 y group was higher than that in 2-<5 y group and ≥5 y group( χ2=20.709, 8.603, P all <0.007). Conclusions:HAdV is an important pathogen of acute respiratory infection in children. HAdV infection occurs mainly in children aged from 6 month to 2 years and has a high detection rate in winter. Children aged 6 months to 2 years with wheezing, shortness of breath, underlying diseases, extrapulmonary symptoms and mixed infections are more likely to develop severe pneumonia.

Objective:To assess the clinical features and effectiveness of antiviral therapy in newborns with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) caused by congenital congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection, and to speculate the risk factors for poor hearing outcomes.Methods:A multicenter prospective cohort study wasconducted, enrolling 176 newborns diagnosed with cCMV at four research centers in Zhejiang Province from March 1, 2021, to April 30, 2024. Clinical characteristics at birth were recorded and hearing was followed up. The children were divided into groups based on their condition at birth, specifically into asymptomatic, mild symptom, and moderate to severe symptom groups. Additionally, they were divided into SNHL and normal hearing groups based on the results of air conduction brainstem audiometry at birth. And they were also divided into treatment and untreated groups according to antiviral treatment. Mann Whitney U test, and chi square test were used for inter group comparison to analyze the differences in clinical features between different disease groups, and to analyze the effects of clinical features, antiviral therapy, and other factors on hearing improvement. Logistic regression analysis was employed to identify the risk factors influencing hearing outcomes. Results:Among the cohort of 176 children diagnosed infection with cCMV, 90 cases were male and 86 cases were female. Of these, 79 cases were asymptomatic, 12 cases classified as mild cCMV and 85 cases as moderate to severe cCMV. Fifty cases belonged to SNHL group, with different degrees of severity, including 30 cases of mild, 9 cases of moderate, 5 cases of severe, and 6 cases of extremely severe SNHL. Among the 121 cases in the normal hearing group, 2 cases (1.7%) exhibited late-onset hearing loss despite having normal hearing at birth. Among 81 cases (46.0%) who completed the hearing follow-up, 71 cases (87.7%) had good hearing outcomes and 10 cases (12.3%) had poor hearing outcomes. Among the 81 children, 29 cases (35.8%) had SNHL at birth. During follow-up, the hearing threshold improved in 19 cases (65.5%), remained stable in 7 cases (24.1%) and progressed in 3 cases (10.3%). A total of 26 cases in the treatment group and 55 cases in the untreated group completed the hearing follow-up assessment. The rate of hearing improvement in the treatment group was found to be higher compared to the untreated group (13 cases (50.0%) vs. 6 cases (10.9%), χ2=15.00, P<0.01), with individuals in the treatment group having a 4.58 times greater likelihood of experiencing hearing improvement ( RR=4.58,95% CI 1.96-10.70, P<0.05). However, no statistically significant difference was observed in hearing outcomes between the antiviral treatment group and the untreated group ( RR=0.90, 95% CI 0.57-1.41, P=0.517). Multivariate analysis further confirmed SNHL ( OR=11.58, 95% CI 2.10-63.93, P=0.005) and preterm birth ( OR=4.98, 95% CI 1.06-23.41, P=0.042) as independent risk factors for poor hearing outcomes. Conclusions:SNHL resulting from cCMV infection presents symptoms at birth and can be improved by antiviral therapy. Poor hearing outcomes are associated with SNHL and prematurity.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2023;44(11):1665-1669
Objective:
To explore the role of mobile phone addiction and anxiety symptoms in the relationship between childhood psychological abuse and depressive symptoms among college students, in order to provide a basis for mental health promotion.
Methods:
From February to May 2023, a stratified random sampling method was used to select 1 799 freshmen to juniors from a university in Wuhu City, Anhui Province. The questionnaire survey was conducted using the 2-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-2), Child Psychological Maltreatment Scale (CPMS), Mobile Phone Addiction Tendency Scale (MPATS), 2-item General Anxiety Disorder (GAD-2). Correlations among each variable were analyzed, and the chain mediating effect of mobile phone addiction and anxiety symptoms was explored.
Results:
The detection rate of depressive symptoms among college students was 9.7%, and the positive detection rate of childhood psychological abuse was 28.6%. Depressive symptoms were positively correlated with childhood psychological abuse, mobile phone addiction and anxiety symptoms ( r =0.28, 0.32, 0.27, P <0.01). Childhood psychological abuse was positively correlated with mobile phone addiction and anxiety symptoms ( r =0.29, 0.71, P <0.01). Mobile phone addiction and anxiety symptoms were positively correlated ( r =0.30, P <0.01). Childhood psychological abuse could effectively predict depressiove symptoms, mobile phone addiction and anxiety symptoms ( β =0.08, 0.06, 0.66, P <0.01). Mobile phone addiction and anxiety symptoms had a chain mediating effect between childhood psychological abuse and depression symptoms, with a total indirect mediating effect (effect=25.27%, P <0.05), accounting for 72.44% of the total effect.
Conclusions
Mobile phone addiction and anxiety symptoms play a chain mediating role between childhood psychological abuse and depressive symptoms. Focusing on childhood psychological abuse, mobile phone addiction and anxiety among college students are beneficial for depression symptoms prevention.

Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae ( CRE) isolated from children in China. Methods CRE strains were collected in 10 ter-tiary children's hospitals of China from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2017. Antimicrobial susceptibility of the clinical strains was detected with disk diffusion method ( KB method) and automated method. The re-sults were analyzed according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute ( CLSI) Standards published in 2017. WHONET 5. 6 software was used to retrospectively analyze the distribution characteristics and drug resistance of these strains. Results A total of 3065 CRE clinical strains were isolated from children with an overall prevalence of 7. 7% and among them, 13. 5% were isolated in neonatal group and 5. 8% in non-neo-natal group. The detection rate of CRE in 2017 was higher than that in 2016 (9. 7% vs 5. 7%). Among the 3065 CRE strains, there were 1912 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae (62. 0%), 667 strains of Escherichia coli (22. 0%), 206 strains of Enterobacter cloacae (7. 0%), 56 strains of Klebsiella aerogenes (1. 8%) and 47 strains of Serratia marcescens (1. 5%). Most of the strains were isolate in neonatology departments including neonatal intensive care units (NICU) and intensive care units (ICU), accounting for 44. 8% and 19. 7%, respectively. Respiratory tract (61. 8%), urine (19. 4%) and blood (5. 7%) specimens were the main sources of CRE isolates. Results of antimicrobial susceptibility test showed that the CRE strains were highly resistant to carbapenem antibiotics such as imipenem, meropenem and ertapenem, as well as penicillins and most cephalosporins (79. 6%-100%), especially those isolated in the neonatal group (P<0. 05). Children had relatively low resistance rates to aminoglycosides such as amikacin (19. 7%) and fos-fomycin (11. 9%), fluoroquinolones such as levofloxacin (37. 7%) and ciprofloxacin (43. 3%), and tige-cycline (3. 8%). Currently, no polymyxin B-resistant strains were isolated. Conclusions The prevalence of common CRE strains in children in 2017 was higher than that in 2016, especially in newborns. Drug re-sistance in CRE strains isolated from neonates to common antibiotics was more severe, suggesting that great attention should be paid to it and timely measures should also be taken.
