Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in children in Jiangsu Province from 2014 to 2023.Methods:The acute respiratory infection cases in children aged 0-14 years were selected from outpatient/emergency or inpatient departments in 2 surveillance sentinel hospitals, respectively, in Nanjing, Suzhou and Taizhou of Jiangsu from 1 July 2014 to 31 December 2023, and RSV nucleic acid test was conducted and the intensity of the RSV infection was accessed by WHO influenza epidemiological threshold method, and case information and clinical data were collected. χ2 test was used to compare the differences between groups, and the Bonferroni method was used for pairwise comparisons between groups. Results:In 4 946 cases of acute respiratory infections, the RSV positive rate was 8.21% (406/4 946), and the age M( Q1, Q3) of the cases was 1 (0, 3) years. The RSV positive rate was 10.92% (258/2 362) during 2014-2019 and 6.06% (118/1 948) during 2019-2023, the difference was significant ( χ2=31.74, P<0.001). RSV infection mainly occurred from October to March during 2014-2019, with the incidence peak in December and moderate or higher intensity. The seasonality of RSV infection was not obvious during 2019-2023, with low intensity. The RSV positive rate was highest in children in age group 0- years (17.85%, 151/846), and the positive rate declined gradually with age ( χ2=184.51, P<0.001). The RSV positive rate was higher in inpatient cases (9.84%, 244/2 480) than in outpatient/emergency cases (6.57%, 162/2 466) ( χ2=17.54, P<0.001). In the 155 RSV infection cases with complete clinical data, the clinical symptoms mainly included cough (99.35%, 154/155), fever (55.48%, 86/155), and shortness of breath (45.16%, 70/155). In the cases aged <6 months, the proportion of those with fever was low, but the proportion of those with shortness of breath, transferred to intensive care units, and receiving oxygen therapy were higher (all P<0.05). Children aged <6 months and those with underlying diseases were more likely to have severe RSV infection (all P<0.05). Conclusions:RSV infection in children in Jiangsu Province showed seasonal prevalence in winter from 2014 to 2019. Since 2020, the seasonal characteristics of the epidemic have changed, the epidemic period has been dispersed and the epidemic intensity has decreased. Infants <1 year old were at high risk for RSV infection, and those <6 months old and with underlying diseases might have severe infection.

BACKGROUND:As a routine method after lumbar spine surgery,a drainage tube is convenient for postoperative bleeding drainage and management,and there is still no consensus on the choice of postoperative removal time for short-segment lumbar spine surgery with less risk. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of different drainage times on early clinical efficacy after short-segment lumbar fusion. METHODS:A prospective randomized controlled study was performed on 220 patients in the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University who underwent posterior lumbar interbody fusion for lumbar degenerative diseases from March 2017 to April 2021.According to the different drainage times,the patients were randomly divided into removal on the second day after operation(group A),removal on the third day after operation(group B),and removal after the observation method 24-hour drainage volume<30 mL(group C).The perioperative indicators and follow-up results of the three groups of patients were observed and compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Because 7 patients were lost to follow-up,2 patients were excluded,and 211 patients were finally included(72 patients in group A,71 patients in group B,and 68 patients in group C).(2)The average drainage time of group C was 2.91 days.The postoperative drainage volume in group A was significantly less than that in groups B and C,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).On day 3 after operation,the hematocrit value of group C was lower than that of group A and group B,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Postoperative activity time and hospital stay in group A were shorter than those in groups B and C,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).(3)Four patients in group A,two patients in group B and three patients in group C received an allogeneic blood transfusion.There was no significant difference among the groups(P>0.05).(4)In terms of postoperative complications,there were no statistical differences in postoperative wound leakage and surgical site infection in all three groups(P>0.05).(5)All patients were followed up for more than 12 months.Visual analog scale score and Oswestry dysfunction index of the three groups of patients before discharge and at the last follow-up were significantly improved compared with those before surgery(P<0.05).There was no statistical significance among the groups(P>0.05).(6)It is indicated that the removal of the drainage tube on the second day after a posterior lumbar fusion can effectively reduce the time to get out of bed and hospital stay,without increasing the postoperative blood loss and the risk of complications.

Objective To investigate the effect of tumor-infiltrating B cells on the therapeutic efficacy of programmed death ligand-1[PD-(L)1]inhibitors and elucidate the potential mechanisms.Methods Based on immunotherapy cohorts for melanoma patients in public databases,the relationship of B cells with progression-free survival (PFS) and response to immune checkpoint inhibitors treatment was analyzed.TC-1 and B16-OVA cells were implanted subcutaneously and in the liver in 6-8-week-old female C57BL/6 mice to establish tumor xenograft models.The effect of B cell clearance on PD-(L)1 therapy was compared.Flow cytometry was performed on the 15th day of TC-1 tumor microenvironment (TME)to confirm the number,function and phenotypic changes of T cells.Flow cytometry and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)were used to detect B cell surface molecules and cytokines.Results Based on ERP105482 data from the ICBatlas public database,high CD19 expression in the tumors was associated with longer PFS in melanoma patients (753 vs 95 d,HR=0.3,95％CI:0.13～0.65,P=0.003).B cells were significantly enriched in immunotherapy-responsive patients (P=0.01).In a mouse TC-1 liver-loaded tumor model,PD-(L)1 antibody treatment reduced tumor mass (P<0.01),whereas B-cell clearance attenuated the therapeutic efficacy.B cells enhanced PD-(L)1 antibody treatment by promoting T cell infiltration and function,and the treatment resulted in changes in B cell subsets,as evidenced by an increase in PD-1 low-expressing subsets (P<0.01).Conclusion After PD-(L)1 treatment,a decrease in PD-1 expression on B cell subsets might be one of the potential mechanisms by which B cells enhance the efficacy of PD-(L)1 therapy.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of fall fear in elderly patients after operation of intertrochanteric fracture, analyze the influencing factors and build a prediction model.Methods:A prospective cohort study and convenient sampling method were used to select 303 elderly patients with intertrochanteric fracture after surgery in the Department of Orthopedics, Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from January 2021 to December 2022 as the modeling group. According to the scores of fall fear when getting out of bed for the first time, they were divided into 211 cases in the fall fear group and 92 cases in the non-fall fear group. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of fall fear after operation of femoral intertrochanteric fracture in elderly patients, and a risk prediction score model was established. ROC curve was used to evaluate the differentiation of the model, calibration chart was used to evaluate the calibration degree of the model, and Bootstrap method was used for internal verification. Data of 81 elderly patients with intertrochanteric fracture treated from January to May 2023 were collected as a validation set for external verification of the model.Results:A total of 6 influencing factors were included in the prediction of fall fear risk model for elderly patients after operation of intertrochanteric fracture: gender ( OR = 3.229, 95% CI 1.672 - 6.401), number of co-existing diseases ( OR = 9.578, 95% CI 4.532 - 20.245), pain ( OR = 1.684, 95% CI 1.074 - 2.463), depression ( OR = 1.719, 95% CI 1.371 - 2.155), social support ( OR = 0.859, 95% CI 0.784 - 0.942), and ability to perform activities of daily living ( OR = 0.960, 95% CI 0.932 - 0.989) (all P<0.05). The area under ROC curve of the prediction model was 0.853, the sensitivity was 0.896, and the specificity was 0.663. The area under the externally verified ROC curve was 0.766, the sensitivity was 0.800, and the specificity was 0.645. The calibration curve was close to the reference curve in the model prediction, indicating that the model hasd a good prediction effect. Conclusions:The prediction effect of this model is good, and it can quickly predict the risk of fall fear in elderly patients after operation of intertrochanteric fracture, and provide a basis for medical personnel to provide timely intervention measures.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To explore the applications value of hospital elderly life program in cardiac surgery patients in intensive care unit, and provide reference for improving the prognosis of patients.Methods:This was a prospective study. A total of 84 cardiac surgery patients in intensive care unit from April 2020 to February 2022 in the People′s Hospital of Leshan by convenient sampling method, they were enrolled and divided into the observation group and the control group according to the admission time, each group was 42 cases. Routine nursing care was carried out in both groups, the control group implemented delirium and debility prevention nursing, the observation group adopted hospital elderly life program. The incidence of ICU-acquired delirium and weakness, mechanical ventilation time, duration of ICU stay, the total length of stay and intensive care experience were assessed between the two groups.Results:The 42 cases were included in the final control group and 39 cases in the observation group. The incidence of ICU-acquired delirium and weakness were 17.95% (7/39) and 7.69% (3/39) in the observation group, lower than in the control group 38.10%(16/42) and 23.81%(10/42), the differences were statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.04, 3.90, both P<0.05); the duration of ICU delirium were (1.71 ± 0.95) d in the observation group, shorter than in the control group (2.81 ± 1.05) d, the difference was statistically significant ( t = 2.38, P<0.05); the mechanical ventilation time, duration of ICU stay, the total length of stay, the total score of intensive care experience in hospital in the observation group were (193.54 ± 21.67) h, (9.49 ± 2.11) d, (18.10 ± 3.12) d, (2.72 ± 0.26) points, lower than those in the control group (214.50 ± 27.25) h, (10.90 ± 1.97) d, (20.59 ± 4.07) d, (3.15 ± 0.35) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 3.11-6.35, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Hospital elderly life program can decrease the incidence of ICU-acquired delirium and weakness of cardiac surgery patients in intensive care unit, shorten mechanical ventilation time and hospitalization time, alleviate discomfort in the intensive care experience.

【Objective】 To analyze the data of clinical blood transfusion quality control supervision in Shanghai, so as to provide reference for the improvement of clinical blood transfusion quality management in hospitals at all levels. 【Methods】 The data of clinical blood transfusion quality control supervision in hospitals at all levels from 2016 to 2021 were retrospectively analyzed to obtain the characteristics and indicators in the quality management. 【Results】 The overall level of clinical blood transfusion quality management in Shanghai steadily improved from 2016 to 2021 (F=3.82, P<0.01), and the management level of different hospitals varied significantly (F=9.00, P<0.01). In 2021, the full compliance rates of housing facilities, instruments and equipment, diagnostic reports and medical record writing among the third-level indicators of clinical blood transfusion quality management in hospitals at all levels were as follows: 86.49%(32/37), 100% (37/37)and 43.24%(16/37) for tertiary comprehensive hospitals; 61.11%(11/18), 88.89%(16/18) and 50.00% (9/18)for tertiary specialized hospitals; 60.87%(14/23), 78.26%(18/23)and 47.83%(11/23) for secondary comprehensive hospitals, ; 60.00%(9/15), 66.67%(10/15), 40.00%(6/15) for secondary specialized hospitals; 52.38%(11/21), 38.10%(8/21), 42.86%(9/21) for private hospitals. 【Conclusion】 The characteristics of clinical blood transfusion quality management in hospitals at all levels in Shanghai differed significantly, with different strengths and weaknesses. Hospitals should improve blood transfusion management in terms of housing facilities, personnel management, system process as well as diagnostic reports and medical record writing, in order to enhance the clinical blood transfusion quality management.

【Objective】 To explore the effect of repeated use of situational dialogues in the process of blood donation of voluntary blood donors. 【Methods】 From September to November 2019, blood donors in the center were investigated in the form of questionnaire, and the influencing factors of blood donation experience were analyzed by regression analysis.The direction of blood donation service should be improved according to the influencing factors.Compared with the survey data before and after the improvement, the effectiveness of the new blood donation service measures, centering on the situation dialogue, on improving blood donation experience was evaluated. 【Results】 A total of 304 and 187 valid questionnaires were returned from the two surveys. Regression analysis of the data from the first study revealed that the main factors affecting the blood donation experience were emotion, value, body and service. The regression coefficient for emotional experience was 2.587 (OR=13.292). Based on this evidence, improvements were implemented to the blood donation service, and the core strategy was to increase emotional communication with blood donors through multiple situational dialogues to achieve psychological support for blood donors. The results of the comparison of the data before and after the measure were as follows: emotional experience 3.490±0.879 vs. 3.754±0.771, value experience 3.461±0.957 vs. 3.722±0.854, and service experience 3.355±0.908 vs. 3.663±0.909; all were improved (F=9.365~23.025, P<0.01 for all). The control analysis illustrated that the improved orientation of the blood donation service was effective in improving the donor experience (χ²=4.776, P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Increasing verbal situational dialogues with blood donors is an effective way for blood centers to improve donors′ donation experience, which helps donors to develop a positive evaluation of blood donation and leads to an increased intention to return.

AIM: To investigate whether the microgravity environment is related to retinal damage.METHODS: Hanging-tail mice tests were used to simulate weightlessness. Light microscopy, and transmission electron microscopic examinations of the retinal tissue structure were used to observe morphological changes. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot analyses were performed to detect the molecular changes associated with the observations.RESULT: Light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy demonstrated that more dead cells were detected in the ganglion layer and inner nuclear layer cells. TNF-α and caspase-3 protein expression in the retinas of simulated microgravity groups were up-regulated compared with the ground-based control group.CONCLUSION: The results demonstrated that simulated microgravity produced severe pathological damage in the retinas of mice.

The main purpose of our study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of eltrombopag plus cyclosporine A (CsA) in transfusion-dependent non-severe aplastic anemia(TD-NSAA). The clinical characteristics of 13 TD-NSAA patients who received initial treatment of eltrombopag plus CsA from 2019 to 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The 3-month overall hematological response (OR) rate was 12/13. Until the end of follow-up, 12 patients responded, among whom 2 patients reached complete response (CR) and 9 patients reached partial response (PR) and 1 with HR. Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) developed in one patient at 6 months after treatment. Five of thirteen patients reported mild adverse reactions, which were all manageable. Compared with historical data, the combination of eltrombopag with CsA is an effective regimen in patients with TD-NSAA.
