ObjectiveTo explore the state of misdiagnosis, missed diagnosis and excesseive diagnosis related to cerebral palsy(CP).Methods389 cases were retrospectively analyzed who were misdiagnosed, missed or escessively diagnosed related to CP as the first diagnosis in the inpatient and outpatient department from July 1999 to March 2010.ResultsAmong 389 cases, 156 cases were missed or misdiagnosed as nutritional disease, and 118 cases of other diseases were misdiagnosed as CP, while 115 cases who were normal children was excessively diagnosed as CP. The false diagnosis had relativity with children's age: doctors are more prone to make misdiagonsis when the children's age are smaller, while 293 cases were misdiagnosed before 12 months old (75.3%); 102 cases (65.4%) were misdiagnosed or missed as other diseases before September, 2004, while 87 cases (75.7%) were excessively diagnosed as CP after September, 2004. Frequency of misdiagnosis as CP reduced from 2004, and the proportion dropped from 55.9% to 44.1%.ConclusionIt is very important to master the diagnostic standard of CP. Both sides of the question are important, one side is to make early diagnosis and early treatment in order to achieve the best effect of rehabilitation, and the other side is to prevent misdiagnosis and excessive diagnosis which woud delay illness, or waste medical resources, increase the financial and psychological burden.

Objective:This study aims to explore the causal relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) using bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR).Methods:The genetic data related to OSA were obtained from the FinnGen Biobank (Ncase=16, 761, Ncontrol=201, 194) in the Genome-wide association study (GWAS). Three single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) were screened out as instrumental variable (IV) of OSA. The genetic data related to T2D were derived from a large Meta-analysis of GWAS (Ncase=62, 892, Ncontrol=596, 424), 114 SNP were selected as IV of T2D. Multiple MR methods were used for analysis and inverse variance weighted (IVW) was performed as main method. The sensitivity of MR analytic results was analyzed using MR-Egger and other methods, and the IV was evaluated using F-value statistics. Results:MR analysis showed that OSA was significantly associated with increased risk of T2D ( OR=2.016, 95% CI: 1.185-3.429, P<0.05). There was no significant relationship between T2D and OSA risk ( OR=1.030, 95% CI: 0.980-1.082, P=0.238). There was heterogeneity in both-way results (OSA?T2D, P=1.808×10 -11; T2D?OSA, P=1.729×10 -7), and no horizontal pleiotropy (OSA?T2D, P=0.477; T2D?OSA, P=0.349). IV of OSA and T2D-selected in the study were strong instrumental variables ( F statistics of OSA=20.543; F statistics of T2D=30.117). Conclusion:Our results supported that OSA was a risk factor for T2D, but T2D had no significant impact on the incidence of OSA. Blood glucose monitoring and diabetes screening in OSA patients might be beneficial to the early detection and intervention of T2D.

Objective:To explore the clinical value of prenatal ultrasound in diagnosis of fetal cleft lip and palate during first-trimester (11-13 + 6 gestational weeks). Methods:Ultrasonographic images were retrospectively selected from those fetuses who underwent first trimester scanning during July 2017 to June 2020 in the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University. Fetal facial mid-sagittal section and the retronasal triangle (RNT) section were combined together to evaluate whether the fetuses had cleft lip and palate (CLP) or not. All fetuses were followed up to birth or induced abortion.Results:A total of 5 520 fetuses were enrolled, with crown-rump length (CRL) between 45-84 mm. Seven cases of different types of CLP were detected by the 2 combined sections, including 4 cases with unilateral CLP, 1 case with median CLP, and 2 cases with bilateral CLP, which were confirmed by follow-up. In addition, 2 cases of isolated cleft lip (CL) were missed.Conclusions:Combination of fetal facial mid-sagittal section and RNT section is useful for the early diagnosis of fetal cleft lip and palate during first-trimester scanning.

Objective:To study the correlation between the acute-phase characteristics of motor evoked potential (MEP) and severities of spinal cord injury in patients with acute cervical hyperextension injury and central cord syndrome (CCS).Methods:Retrospectively analyzed were the data of 45 patients with acute cervical hyperextension injury and CCS (observation group) who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University from December 2018 to July 2021 and 20 healthy controls. Examination of transcranial magnetic stimulation-induced MEP was performed in patients with CCS and healthy controls using a magpro x100 magnetic stimulator, and recording was conducted in bilateral abductor pollicis brevis (APB). The characteristics of MEP waveform latency, amplitude and motor threshold were described and compared between the healthy control and observation groups; the correlations were analyzed between the MEP latency and the severity of spinal cord injury [American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) total score and motor function of Upper Extremity Motor Subscores (UEMS)] in the observation group. According to different MEP-induced states, the patients in the observation group were divided into a resting group ( n=19), a facilitation group ( n=18), and a no-waveform group ( n=8). The severity of spinal cord injury (ASIA total score) and the functional independence of the spinal cord (SCIM-Ⅲ score) were compared among the 3 groups to analyze the correlation between the MEP-induced state and the severity of spinal cord injury (ASIA total score). Results:The observation group had a significantly longer MEP latency [(30.16±6.32) ms], a significantly smaller amplitude [(0.54±0.30) mV] and a significantly higher motor threshold [(65%±11%)] than the healthy control group (all P<0.05). The MEP latency in the observation group was significantly correlated with ASIA total score ( r=-0.730, P<0.001) and UEMS ( r=-0.740, P<0.001). The ASIA total score and SCIM-Ⅲ score were significantly different among the 3 groups ( P<0.05), and the MEP-induced state was significantly correlated with the severity of spinal cord injury (ASIA total score) ( r=0.668, P<0.001). Conclusions:In patients with acute cervical hyperextension injury and CCS, the MEP latency is prolonged, the amplitude lowered, and the motor threshold enhanced. The MEP latency is strongly correlated with the severity of spinal cord injury and upper limb motor function. The MEP-induced state is also closely related to the severity of spinal cord injury.

Objective:To explore the relationship between soft markers found in the first trimester (11-13 + 6 gestational weeks) ultrasound screening and fetal adverse pregnancy outcomes. Methods:Single pregnancy fetuses were selected from the Multicenter Clinical Study of First Trimester Screening in China during August 2017 to August 2020. The types and detection rate of soft markers during the first trimester were compared. The correlation between positive soft markers and adverse pregnancy outcomes was analyzed by binary Logistics regression.Results:A total of 16 625 fetuses with complete follow-up outcomes were included in the group. Six hundred and seven ultrasonic soft markers were detected in 556 fetuses with positive soft markers during the first trimester, and the first four most frequently occurred were increased nuchal translucency (NT) (2.08%, 345/16 625), echogenic intracardiac focus (EIF) (0.94%, 156/16 625), hypoplasia of fetal nasal bone (0.20%, 34/16 625), single umbilical artery (SUA) (0.19%, 31/16 625). Among 556 fetuses, the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcome in fetuses with two or more positive soft markers was 32.50% (13/40), which was significantly higher than fetuses with single positive soft marker (11.05%, 57/516), and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=5.055, P<0.001). The incidence of adverse pregnancy outcome in positive soft markers fetus associated with structural abnormalities was 80.77% (21/26), which was significantly higher than fetuses with isolated positive soft marker (12.08%, 64/530), and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=90.310, P<0.001). Binary logistic regression analysis showed choroid plexus cyst (CPC), SUA, echogenic bowel (EB), absent/reversed a-wave of ductus venosus, hypoplasia of fetal nasal bone, increased NT, and EIF were closely related to the adverse pregnancy outcomes (all P<0.05). However, there were no significant correlations between tricuspid regurgitation (TR), pyelectasis (PYE) and fetal adverse pregnancy outcomes (all P>0.05). Conclusions:The ultrasonic soft markers during the first trimester are of great significance in predicting fetal adverse pregnancy outcomes. For multiple positive soft markers or positive soft markers combined with structural abnormalities, more attention should be paid to them and comprehensive evaluation is required to be carried out.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of first-trimester and mid-trimester ultrasound in screening fetal pentalogy of Cantrell, and to analyze missed and misdiagnosed cases.Methods:The fetal ultrasound image characteristics of pentalogy of Cantrell diagnosed in the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from March 2018 to November 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The necessary sections and key features of ultrasound images for diagnosing the disease in first-trimester and mid-trimester were summarized. The diagnostic value of ultrasound screenings in first-trimester and mid-trimester was analyzed, and the progression of the disease during pregnancy was understood, the missed diagnosis rate and misdiagnosis rate were calculated, and the reasons for missing diagnosis were analyzed. All fetuses were followed up to birth or induction of labor.Pentalogy of Cantrell was divided into types Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ according to Toyama′s research.Results:Among the 120 190 fetuses, 13 cases of pentalogy of Cantrell were diagnosed by ultrasound in first-trimester and mid-trimester. Ultrasound predominantly showed the fetal heart being malpositioned outside the chest and the fetal abdominal contents bulging outside the abdominal cavity, and the sternumal echo was partially or completely missed in some cases. All 13 cases were confirmed by follow-up, including 1 case of type Ⅱ, and 12 cases of type Ⅲ. In addition, 1 missed case of type Ⅱ pentalogy of Cantrell was followed up after birth. The correct diagnostic rates of fetal pentalogy of Cantrell using standard ultrasound sections during the first-trimester and mid-trimester were 99.9% and 100%, the sensitivity were 88.9% and 100%, the specificity were both 100%, the positive predictive values were both 100%, and the negative predictive values were 99.9% and 100%, respectively.Conclusions:First-trimester and mid-trimester ultrasound screenings have high diagnostic accuracy for pentalogy of Cantrell, and early detection and early diagnosis are of great clinical significance for the guidance of pregnancy outcomes.

Objective:To explore the application effect of new whole-course closed sputum specimen collection technology in intensive care unit patients.Methods:From April 2020 to January 2022, the convenient sampling was used to select 442 ICU mechanical ventilation patients admitted to 6 hospitals in Jiaxing City as the research objects. According to the order of admission time, the patients were divided into the control group ( n=221) and the experimental group ( n=221) . The control group adopted the traditional open sputum specimen collection technology, while the experimental group adopted the new whole-course closed sputum specimen collection technology. The heart rate, the incidence of hypooxygen saturation and the incidence of sputum spatter were compared between the two groups after sputum sample sampling. Results:The incidences of hypooxygen saturation and sputum spatter in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:The new whole-course closed sputum specimen collection technology can effectively stabilize the oxygen saturation of ICU patients in the process of sputum specimen collection, reduce the incidence of sputum spatter and promote the safety of both patients and medical staff, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective:To establish reference ranges of central nervous system-related fetal intracranial markers during the first trimester in a local population of Suzhou.Methods:Ultrasound images of fetuses with normal birth outcomes in singleton pregnancies who underwent nuchal translucency(NT) screening during the first trimester (11-13 + 6 gestational weeks) from January 2021 to July 2022 at the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were retrospectively selected. The images including 3 planes: the midsagittal plane of the fetal head, also known as the plane for NT measurement, the trans-ventricular plane of the fetal head, and the axial plane of the fetal head at the posterior fossa level. The brainstem (BS) thickness, brainstem to occipital bone distance (BSOB), the ratio of BS to BSOB (BS/BSOB), intracranial translucency (IT) thickness, cisterna magna (CM) width, and the midbrain (MB) to falx (F) ratio MB/F were measured in the mid-sagittal plane of the fetal head. Choroid plexus length (CPL) to occipital frontal diameter (OFD) ratio CPL/OFD, and choroid plexus area (CPA) to head area (HA) ratio CPA/HA were measured in the trans-ventricular plane of the fetal head. Anteroposterior diameter of the fourth ventricle (4V) and CM were measured in the axial plane of the fetal head at the posterior fossa level.Statistical analysis was performed to obtain the corresponding normal reference range.Intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to analyze intra-observer and inter-observer consistency. Pearson correlation analysis and linear correlation analysis were used to study the correlations between crown-lump length (CRL) and intracranial markers, and the regression equation was derived. Results:A total of 2 331 fetuses were enrolled, providing 1 023 images of the midsagittal plane, 817 images of the trans-ventricular plane, and 567 images of the axial plane of the fetal head at the posterior fossa level. The intra-observer and inter-observer ICCs of intracranial markers BS, BSOB, BS/BSOB, IT thickness, CM width, MB/F in the mid-sagittal plane, the intracranial markers CPL/OFD, CPA/HA on the trans-ventricular plane, and the intracranial markers 4V and CM width in the axial plane at the posterior fossa level were all >0.75. Fetal intracranial markers were linearly correlated with CRL. The midsagittal plane: BS, BSOB, BS/BSOB, IT thickness, CM width, MB/F were linearly correlated with CRL ( r=0.508, 0.626, -0.234, 0.105, 0.508, -0.493; all P<0.05); the trans-ventricular plane: CPL/OFD, CPA/HA were linearly correlated with CRL( r=-0.324, -0.268; all P<0.001); the axial plane of the fetal head at the posterior fossa level: 4V, CM width were linearly correlated with CRL ( r=0.246, 0.467; all P<0.001). Conclusions:Quantitative analysis of fetal intracranial markers in the first trimester is feasible. This study constructed a normal reference range of multiple intracranial markers related to central nervous system in the first trimester with a local population of Suzhou. And the construction of this normal range can provide an objective basis for the detection of fetal central nervous system malformations in the first trimester.
