Objective:
To investigate the coverage of rotavirus vaccination among children under five years in Xiuzhou District of Jiaxing City, so as to provide insights into rotaviral diarrhea control.
Methods:
The rotavirus vaccination data of children aged two months to five years were extracted from the vaccination clinics of eight township hospitals and community health service centers through the Zhejiang vaccination information system. The coverage of rotavirus vaccination was analyzed among children with different genders, ages, types of vaccines and doses of vaccination.
Results:
Totally 32 752 children were included, and the coverage of rotavirus vaccination was 47.09%. The coverage of rotavirus vaccination was significantly higher in boys than in girls ( 47.65% vs. 46.46%, P<0.05 ), and a higher vaccination rate was seen in children with local household registration than in those without ( 56.76% vs. 38.75%, P<0.05 ). The vaccination rates of monovalent and pentavalent rotavirus vaccines were 36.90% and 10.18%, respectively. Totally 26 982 doses of rotavirus vaccines were vaccinated, with a mean dose of ( 0.84±1.02 ) per capita, and the vaccination rates of one, two and three doses were 20.75%, 17.37% and 8.96%, respectively. The median age was 6.00 months ( interquartile range, 3.00 months ) among children vaccinated with the first dose.
Conclusions
The coverage of rotavirus vaccination and full-dose vaccination are low among children under five in Xiuzhou District, with monovalent rotavirus vaccines predominant. Intensified rotavirus vaccination is therefore recommended.

Objective:To investigate the change in serum epidermal growth factor (EGF) level in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and correlate it with cognitive impairment.Methods:A total of 154 patients with early PD who received treatment in Hangzhou Third People's Hospital between July 2017 and June 2018 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into mild cognitive impairment (observation group) and no cognitive impairment (control group) according to the severity of cognitive impairment. Cognitive impairment was graded using Montreal cognitive assessment scale. Motor function was assessed using Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III formulated by International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society. All these assessments were performed at enrollment and at the end of 2-year follow-up. Serum EGF level was measured by double antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Patients without cognitive impairment were divided into four groups according to quartiles of serum EGF levels. The conversion rate of PD-MCI was calculated at 2 years of follow-up and compared between groups.Results:Among 154 patients, 68 (44.16%) patients developed PD-MCI, and 86 (55.84%) patients had no cognitive impairment. Montreal cognitive assessment scale score and serum EGF level in the observation group were (20.01 ± 3.15) points and (267.79 ± 63.18) ng/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(28.21 ± 2.84) points, (491.53 ± 67.38) ng/L, t = 8.11, 9.03, both P < 0.001]. Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III score in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(23.47 ± 5.33) points vs. (18.69 ± 4.37) points, t = 5.18, P < 0.001]. Among the first quartile group, 14 (63.64%) patients converted to PD-MCI; while among the fourth quartile group, 2 (9.52%) patients converted to PD-MCI. The conversion rate of PD-MCI in the second, third and fourth quartile groups was significantly lower than that in the first quartile group (χ 2 = 9.73, 14.48, 33.47, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Cognitive impairment in patients with PD is closely related to serum EGF level. Serum EGF level is a hematological index to predict cognitive impairment in patients with PD. This study is innovative and scientific.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of cerebral blood flow changes in MRI perfusion imaging in patients with Parkinson disease (PD) cognition disorders and its correlation with serum epidermal growth factor (EGF) level.Methods:One hundred and twenty PD patients diagnosed and treated from September 2017 to September 2020 in Hangzhou Third People′s Hospital were selected. According to the presence of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), they were divided into PD-MCI group (60 cases) and PD without cognition impairment (PD-NCI) group (60 cases). Another 60 cases of healthy physical examination during the same period were selected as the normal control group. MRI perfusion imaging was used to evaluate the cerebral vascular perfusion in each group, and the EGF level of each group was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and compared.Results:The CBF and CBV in the PD-MCI group and PD-NCI group were lower than those in the normal control group, while the MTT was longer than that in the normal control group:(14.78 ± 2.49), (18.21 ± 2.84) ml/(100 g·min) vs. (18.21 ± 2.84) ml/(100g·min); (1.42 ± 0.29), (1.83 ± 0.31) ml/100 g vs. (2.87 ± 0.54) ml/100 g; (10.53 ± 2.18), (7.85 ± 1.39) s vs. (4.29 ± 1.05) s, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The CBF and CBV in the PD-MCI group were lower than those in the PD-NCI group, while MTT was longer than that in the PD-NCI group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The level of serum EGF in the PD-MCI group and PD-NCI group were lower than those in the normal control group: (146.25 ± 30.12), (208.17 ± 21.25) ng/L vs. (242.38 ± 25.46) ng/L; the level of serum EGF in the PD-MCI group was lower than that in the PD-NCI group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). CBF, CBV and EGF were linearly positively correlated with Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA) scores ( r1 = 0.810, r2 = 0.732, r3 = 0.825, P<0.05), while MTT was linearly negatively correlated with MoCA scores ( r4 = -0.756, P<0.05). Conclusions:PD-MCI patients have abnormal cerebral blood flow, and serum EGF level decrease. In PD-MCI patients, CBF, CBV and EGF are linearly positively correlated with MoCA scores, while MTT is linearly negatively correlated with MoCA scores.

Objective:To apply the best evidence for prevention of oral mucositis in children with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) to clinical practice and evaluate its efficacy.Methods:Evidence-based nursing method was applied to obtain the best evidence, the evidence quality review indexes were established and the obstacle factors were analyzed, and then the action strategy was constructed. Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 60 children who were admitted to HSCT ward of Beijing Children's Hospital of Capital Medical University and 14 nurses working in HSCT ward were selected as the research objects from August 2019 to October 2020. The children admitted from August 2019 to February 2020 were included in the control group, and children admitted from March to October 2020 were included in the experimental group, with 30 cases in each group. Children in the control group received routine preventive measures for oral mucositis, while children in the experimental group received preventive measures for oral mucositis constructed based on the best evidence. Before and after the application of the evidence, the nurses' knowledge of preventing oral mucositis in children with HSCT was investigated through self-developed test papers. The incidence of oral mucositis and parents' satisfaction with prevention measures for oral mucositis were compared between the two groups.Results:Evidence-based nursing practice used 10 pieces of evidence. The incidence of oral mucositis in the experimental group was 50% (15/30) , lower than 83% (25/30) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=7.50, P < 0.05) . The score of satisfaction with for preventive measures of oral mucositis of parents in the experimental group was (4.96±0.05) , which was higher than (3.65±1.60) of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-9.69, P<0.01) . After the application of the evidence, the score of nurses' knowledge of prevention of oral mucositis was (98.22±6.65) , which was higher than (78.72±12.03) before the application, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.30, P<0.01) . Conclusions:Management of oral mucositis in children with HSCT through evidence-based nursing practice can effectively reduce the incidence of oral mucositis in children, improve parents' satisfaction with prevention measures for oral mucositis and nurses' knowledge of prevention of oral mucositis.

Methods:Clinical data of 187 patients with left-sided hepatolithiasis and underwent laparoscopically or open left-sided hepatectomy from October 2014 to October 2019 at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were retrospectively analyzed in this propensity score matching (PSM) study and were matched in terms of age, sex, body mass index, liver function, ASA score, comorbidities, history of biliary surgery, and smoking history on the ratio of 1∶1.There were 47 cases in each group and the mean age were (54.7±12.3)years old(range:34 to 75 years old) and (53.2±12.6) years old (range: 34 to 75 years old) in open and laparoscopically group respectively. The data of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital-stay, complication rate, biliary fistula rate, stone clearance rate, and stone recurrence rate were compared. The quantitative data were compared using t-test or rank-sum test. Count data were analyzed with χ 2 test or Fisher test. Results:No significant difference was observed in the clinical characteristics of included 94 patients in this study(all P>0.05).The length of the postoperative hospital-stay after OLH was significantly higher than that in the LLH group((10.8±3.1) days vs.(8.5±2.2)days, t=4.085, P=0.000). LLR significantly decreased the incidence of postoperative biliary fistula compared with the OLH (6.3% vs.21.2%, χ 2=4.374, P=0.036) and the rates of postoperative complications in the OLH group was significantly higher than that in the LLH group (48.9% vs.27.6%, χ 2=4.502, P=0.034). Moreover, the stone recurrence rates in the LLH group was significantly lower than that after OLR (4.2% vs. 17.0%, χ 2=4.029, P=0.045). OLH (95 % CI: 1.55 to 10.75, P=0.004) and postoperative complications (95 % CI: 1.29 to 9.52, P=0.013) were independent risk factors for prolonged hospital stay. OLH (95 % CI: 1.428 to 44.080, P=0.018) and residual stones (95 % CI: 1.580 to 62.379, P=0.014) were independent risk factors for the occurrence of postoperative biliary fistula. Biliary fistula (95 % CI: 1.078 to 24.517, P=0.040) was an independent risk factor for the recurrence of stones. Conclusion:Compared with OLH, LLH is safe and effective for the treatment of the primary left-sided hepatolithiasis with the clinical benefits of shorter hospital stay, fewer morbidity and biliary fistula occurrence, and lower stone recurrence rates.

Objective:To explore the association between maternal bisphenol A (BPA) exposure during pregnancy and neurobehavioral development in infant.Methods:Participants were from the Ma’anshan Birth Cohort, which was established from October 2008 to October 2010 based on four municipal medical and health institutions in Ma'anshan. High-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was applied for the determination of serum BPA concentration in 1 783 pregnant women sampled at their first filing, and during 2.97 to 28.1 months age of the infants. Neurobehavioral development were assessed by 0-6-year-old pediatric examination table of neuropsychological development. Generalized linear model was used to analyze the association between serum BPA levels during pregnancy and infants’ neurobehavioral development.Results:A total of 931 mother-child pairs had complete data on serum BPA detection during pregnancy and assessment of infants’ neurobehavioral development status. The age of pregnant women at their first filing was (26.67±3.45) years old, and the M ( P25, P75) of serum BPA concentration (ng/ml) was 0.23 (0.11, 0.52), with a detection rate of 84.1% (783/931). The age of infants was (13.18±5.46) months, and 53.5% (498) were boys. The developmental quotient scores of large motor, fine motor, adaptive ability, language ability and social behaviors of infants were (97.88±16.32), (97.16±15.35), (99.64±15.47), (95.3±16.04) and (98.95±14.76) points, respectively. Generalized linear model showed that after adjusting for factors such as delivery mode, feeding mode, family per capita monthly income, preterm delivery, gender, maternal age, residence, pre-pregnancy body mass index and residence time, serum BPA level in pregnancy was negatively associated with infant’s development of social behavior [β (95% CI):-2.42 (-4.71, -0.12)]. The post-stratification analysis by infant age revealed that the serum BPA level in pregnancy was only negatively associated with the development of language and social behavior developmental quotient scores in infants between the ages of 12 and 18 months, with β (95% CI) about -6.66 (-13.06, -0.25) and -7.401 (-12.97, -1.83), respectively. Conclusion:BPA exposure during pregnancy affects language and social behavior development in infants, and the detection window is between 12 and 18 months old of the infant.
