OBJECTIVE:To strengthen the management of dismounting drugs in hospital and improve pharmacist working effi-ciency by designing and mading an oral dispending desk. METHODS:In order to solve the small number of placing dismounting drugs induced by small capacity of the desk and disorder placement of placing medicines in inpatient pharmacy,our pharmacists de-signed a new kind of oral dispensing desk that can solve the above problems,produced it and put it in the daily clinical work. The application effects were evaluated by comparing the number of placing drugs and deployment time of medical orders before and af-ter applying it. RESULTS:The designed oral dispensing desk included square slots in the bench,round slots on the side,operating table,multi-panel drawer and ordinary drawer,in which,the first two parts could be used for placing drugs with different shapes and different sizes,multi-panel drawer could place oral liquid,granules,etc. The total number of placing drugs was increased from 237 to 290,and the average deployment time of each medical order was shortened from(4.55±0.38)s to(3.52±0.16)s. CON-CLUSIONS:Application of new dispensing desk has not only solved the limited capacity of the desk,disorderly placing dismount-ing drugs,being difficult to locate and manage and other problems,but also improved the deployment speed of pharmacists and promoted standardized management of dismounting drugs.

Objective:To analyze the therapeutic effect of medial gastrocnemius muscle flap transfer combined with induced membrane technique in repairing anterior medial Gustilo-Anderson type ⅢB injury of the middle and upper tibia accompanied by bone defect.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze 21 patients with anterior medial Gustilo-Anderson type ⅢB injury of middle and upper tibia accompanied by bone defectanterior medial tibial fractures admitted to Xijing Hospital，Air Force Military Medical University from April 2017 to January 2019. There were 15 males and 6 females，with the age of （38.6 ± 7.6）years （range，18-66 years）. After admission，all patients had bone defect repair and fixation and soft tissue defect repair using membrane induction technique in the first stage. The area of soft tissue defect ranged from 8.0 cm × 6.0 cm to 16.0 cm × 12.0 cm. The length of tibial defect was （5.5 ± 1.8） cm （ranged，3.5-11.0 cm）. The size of metastasis of medial gastrocnemius flap ranged from 12.0 cm × 8.0 cm to 22.0 cm × 13.0 cm. The survival rate of muscle flap was observed. One week after the wound was stabilized，skin grafting on the surface of muscle flap was performed at second stage. The graft survival was observed. The induced membrane technique was used to reconstruct bone defects at third stage. The infection index，lower extremity functional scale （LEFS） and Mazur ankle function score were compared before and at the last follow-up. The fracture healing and related complications were observed，and the lower limb function was evaluated by Johner-Wruhs scoring system at the last follow-up.Results:All patients were followed up for 11-26 months ［（18.4 ± 5.1） months］. The muscle flap transferred survived in all patients at first stage. The skin graft survived at second stage，and the wound healing time was 1-4 weeks ［（3.1 ± 0.5）weeks］. After the surgery at third stage，the healing time of bone fracture was （8.2 ± 0.7）months （range，6-10 months）. A significantly lowered level of infection was observed at the last follow-up compared to that before operation （ P < 0.01）. The LEFS and Mazur ankle function scores of the affected limb were （52.2 ±8.9）points and （75.2 ± 13.1）points at the last follow-up，significantly higher than those before operation ［（36.0 ± 5.6）points，（53.7 ± 14.6）points］ （ P < 0.01）. The soft tissue defect was repaired satisfactorily，and the broken ends of bone defects were healed at the last follow-up. Delayed bone union occurred in 3 patients，but no infection，osteomyelitis，foot drop or other complications occurred. According to Johner- Wruhs score，18 patients were rated as excellent，2 patients as good，1 patient as fair and 0 patient as poor，with the excellent and good rate of 95%. Conclusion:For patients with anterior medial Gustilo-Anderson type ⅢB injury of the middle and upper tibia accompanied by bone defect，transfer of medial gastrocnemius head muscle flap combined with induced membrane technique can effectively repair the injured limb，reduce infection and restore partial function of the lower limb，indicating that the procedure is an effective treatment strategy with satisfactory clinical results.

Objective:To understand the epidemiological characteristics of human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) among acute respiratory infection (ARI) cases in 16 provinces of China from 2009 to 2023.Methods:The data of this study were collected from the ARI surveillance data from 16 provinces in China from 2009 to 2023, with a total of 28 278 ARI cases included in the study. The clinical specimens from ARI cases were screened for HRSV nucleic acid from 2009 to 2023, and differences in virus detection rates among cases of different age groups, regions, and months were analyzed.Results:A total of 28 278 ARI cases were enrolled from January 2009 to September 2023. The age of the cases ranged from<1 month to 112 years, and the age M ( Q1, Q3) was 3 years (1 year, 9 years). Among them, 3 062 cases were positive for HRSV nucleic acid, with a total detection rate of 10.83%. From 2009 to 2019, the detection rate of HRSV was 9.33%, and the virus was mainly prevalent in winter and spring. During the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the detection rate of HRSV fluctuated between 6.32% and 18.67%. There was no traditional winter epidemic peak of HRSV from the end of 2022 to the beginning of 2023, and an anti-seasonal epidemic of HRSV occurred from April to May 2023. About 87.95% (2 693/3 062) of positive cases were children under 5 years old, and the difference in the detection rate of HRSV among different age groups was statistically significant ( P<0.001), showing a decreasing trend of HRSV detection rate with the increase of age ( P<0.001). Among them, the HRSV detection rate (25.69%) was highest in children under 6 months. Compared with 2009-2019, the ranking of HRSV detection rates in different age groups changed from high to low between 2020 and 2023, with the age M (Q1, Q3) of HRSV positive cases increasing from 1 year (6 months, 3 years) to 2 years (11 months, 3 years). Conclusion:Through 15 years of continuous HRSV surveillance analysis, children under 5 years old, especially infants under 6 months old, are the main high-risk population for HRSV infection. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the prevalence and patterns of HRSV in China have changed.

Objective:To clarify the infection and epidemic characteristics of the human metapneumovirus (HMPV) in Chinese patients with febrile respiratory syndrome (FRS), and to provide important baseline data for clinical diagnosis, treatment, prevention and control of HMPV-induced respiratory tract diseases in China.Methods:FRS cases from January 2009 to June 2021 in 9 provinces in China, including Beijing, Hebei, Jilin, Shandong, Shaanxi, Xinjiang, Anhui, Guangdong, Hunan were retrospectively analyzed for their respiratory samples, clinical and epidemic data.The respiratory samples were detected for HMPV by quantitative real-time PCR.Results:A total of 11 660 cases were tested for HMPV, involving 296 (2.54%) HMPV-positive cases.Among 296 HMPV-positive cases, 218 were single HMPV infection, and 78/296 (26.35%) were co-infected with one or more respiratory viruses.HMPV mainly affected children under 5 years of age (3.10%), and in this population, the proportion of pneumonia in HMPV co-infection cases was significantly higher than that of single HMPV infection.HMPV could be detected all year round, which was more popular in winter and spring, with the peak of HMPV epidemic in March.Conclusions:HMPV is one of the important pathogens causing acute respiratory infection in children, showing a clear seasonal epidemic.HMPV can be infected alone or in combination with other respiratory viruses, which may increase the risk of pneumonia in children.

OBJECTIVE: To report the clinical characteristics and treatment analysis of 3 cases of congenital ulnar collateral flexor contracture of the forearm and take a reference for clinic. METHODS: A total of 3 patients with congenital ulnar collateral flexor contracture of the forearm were admitted between February 2019 and August 2021. Two patients were male and 1 was female, and their ages were 16, 20, and 16 years, respectively. The disease durations were 8, 20, and 15 years, respectively. They all presented with flexion deformity of the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints of the middle, ring, and little fingers in the neutral or extended wrist position, and the deformity worsened in the extended wrist position. The total action motion (TAM) scores of 3 patients were 1 and the gradings were poor. The Carroll's hand function evaluation scores were 48, 55, and 57, and the grip strength indexes were 72.8, 78.4, and 30.5. Preoperative CT of case 2 showed a bony protrusion of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon at the proximal end of the ulna; and MRI of case 3 showed that the ulnar flexor digitorum profundus presented as a uniform cord. After diagnosis, all patients were treated with operation to release the denatured tendon, and functional exercise was started early after operation. RESULTS: The incisions of 3 patients healed by first intention. Three patients were followed up for 12, 35, and 12 months, respectively. The hand function and the movement range of the joints significantly improved, but the grip strength did not significantly improve. At last follow-up, TAM scores were 3, 4, and 4, respectively, among which 2 cases were excellent and 1 case was good. Carroll's hand function evaluation scores were 95, 90, and 94, and the grip strength indexes were 73.5, 81.3, and 34.2, respectively. CONCLUSION Congenital ulnar collateral flexor contracture is a rare clinical disease that should be distinguished from ischemic muscle contracture. The location of the contracture should be identified and appropriate surgical timing should be selected for surgical release. Active postoperative rehabilitation and functional exercise can achieve good hand function.
