Objective:To review the clinical prognosis and causes of death in children with extracorporeal membrane pulmonary(ECMO) assistance after congenital heart disease(CHD) operation in our center, so as to improve the survival rate of ECMO.Methods:All clinical data of 105 children with VA-ECMO assisted after CHD operation who were admitted to the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Shanghai Children′s Medical Center from January 2017 to December 2019 were collected, and the clinical characteristics and causes of death were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The age of 105 children with ECMO was 110(38, 341)days, the weight was 5.30(3.75, 8.45)kg, and the risk adjustment for congenital heart surgery score was 3(2-3)points.There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, weight, height, risk adjustment for congenital heart surgery score, the number of ECMO installed in the operating room, the number of ECMO installed after cardiopulmonary resuscitation and ECMO duration between the surviving group ( n=51) and the death group ( n=54)( P>0.05). While there was a significant difference in utilization of continuous renal replacement therapy[7.8% (4/51) vs.38.9% (21/54), P<0.001]. The death mainly occurred within one week after evacuating ECMO(83.3%, 45/54). ECMO installation was most in children aged 1 month to 1 year old(52.4%, 55/105), and the survival rate showed a rise over three years(2017 to 2019), increased from 31.6% (6/19) to 65.0% (13/20). Children with 3 to 5 kg were the most affected (39.0%, 41/105) when ECMO was installed, and the survival rate from 2017 to 2019 increased from 28.6%(4/14) to 75.0%(9/12). The main cause of death was heart failure(48.1%, 26/54), followed by bleeding(18.5%, 10/54)and pulmonary hypertension(13.0%, 7/54). Conclusion:With the progress of surgical technology and cardiopulmonary bypass, and the improvement of postoperative management, the mortality of children with CHD in our hospital after ECMO has decreased year by year during the last three years.However, the mortality of children requiring continuous renal replacement therapy assistance during ECMO is higher.Therefore, it is still necessary to strengthen the maintenance of each organ function during ECMO.

Objective: To investigate the association of Internet gaming disorder (IGD) and sleep quality in adolescents of Xi an, thereby providing theoretical evidence for prevention of IGD and improvement of sleep quality of adolescents. Methods: A total of 1 181 adolescents from 3 middle schools of Xi an were randomly selected between August, 2019 and February, 2020. These adolescents were assessed by a series of questionnaires, including basic information questionnaire, IGD and Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression model were used to evaluate the association between IGD and insomnia. Results: Among 929 junior middle school students who participated in online games and the IGD Diagnostic Questionnaire was filled out in the past 12 months, the prevalence of IGD was 20.0%(186). Univariate analyses indicated that gender,whether single family, whether they living with their parents, whether they were addicted to online games, whether they could control the time of online games, and the severity of insomnia influenced IGD ( χ 2=17.11, 8.33, 202.92, 91.23, 29.06, P <0.05). The multivariate Logistic regression of the total population showed that participating in online games was not associated with the severity of insomnia ( OR = 1.62 , 95% CI =0.92-0.85, P >0.05). The people who participated in online games in the past 12 monthsthe severity of insomnia was positively correlated with the risk of IGD ( OR =3.56，95% CI =1.92-6.61, P <0.01). Conclusion Internet gaming disorder become a severe situation in the middle school students. The severity of insomnia might become the risk factor of IGD, so social should pay more attention to the prevention of internet addiction.

Adipose stem cells (ASCs) are mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue, and they have potentials of self-renewal and multi-directional differentiation. Compared with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, ASCs have many advantages, such as easy access, easy cultivation, and abundant content, which are valuable seed cells in the field of repair and reconstruction. In recent years, with the deepening of the researches on differentiation, regulation, and function of ASCs, the clinical application of ASCs has gradually increased with good therapeutic effects.

Objective:To explore the reliability of estimated transpulmonary gradient(TPG)by comparing the measured TPG with the estimated TPG in echocardiography.Methods:The cardiothoracic surgery database of Shanghai Children′s Medical Center was reviewed.Children with hemodynamic monitoring and ultrasound findings who underwent total cavopulmonary connection between January 2015 and December 2018 were included.TPG was calculated separately according to the formula.Intraclass correlation efficient was used for consistency test.Results:Finally, 27 patients were selected, including 16 males and 11 females with age(4.0±1.6)years old, weight(15.2±3.3)kg and height(99.1±11.2)cm.There were nine cases (33.3%) of right ventricular double outlet and seven cases (25.9%) of pulmonary atresia.For hemodynamic blood monitoring, TPG was 5-16(10.1±3)mmHg, and its echocardiography parameters were estimated as 5.8-20.3(11±3.3)mmHg.The ICC value was 0.117 which was less than 0.4( P=0.277). Conclusion:TPG estimated by total cavopulmonary connection pipe window during perioperative period is inaccurate and higher than actual value, so invasive hemodynamic monitoring is still recommended during perioperative period.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of performing diaphragm plication(DPL) after congenital heart disease(CHD) surgery as well as the timing and clinical efficacy.Methods:Data regarding children underwent open heart surgery at Shanghai Children′s Medical Center from January 2017 to December 2019 were reviewed.According to whether DPL was performed after CHD operation or not, the children were divided into DPL group and non-diaphragm plication(NDPL)group.Clinical data including age, surgery, cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB)temperature and time of two groups were compared, meanwhile the risk factors of DPL surgery were analyzed.Based on the median of 8 days between open heart surgery and DPL, children in DPL group were divided into early surgery group(less than 8 days), and delayed operation group(no less than 8 days). The parameters of comparison included ventilator using time, hospital stay time, hospitalization expenditure, postoperative infection to evaluate the timing of DPL and effect.Results:There were 10 309 children after CHD, including 95 in DPL group and 10 214 in NDPL group.In DPL group, there were 52 males(54.7%) and 43 females(45.3%), with age 147(52, 318) d, weight(5.5±4.1) kg, height(56.8±25.6) cm, CPB time(136.8±93.4) min and aortic occlusion time(62.5±50.2) min.Compared with NDPL group, DPL group had younger age, shorter height, lighter weight, higher incidence of preoperative special treatment, higher proportion of reoperation, lower CPB temperature, longer CPB time and longer aortic occlusion time.There were significant differences between two groups( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that younger operative age( OR=0.998, 95% CI 0.998~0.999, P<0.001), staging operation( OR=72.977, 95% CI 39.096~136.211, P<0.001), long CPB time( OR=1.006, 95% CI 1.002~1.011, P=0.008), and pulmonary venoplasty( OR=4.219, 95% CI 2.132~8.350, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for DPL after CHD.Early surgery group had lower postoperative infection rate(43.59% vs. 88.38%, P=0.007), shorter ventilator duration[168.0(99.5, 280.5) h vs.309.9(166.2, 644.5) h, P=0.029], shorter hospital stay duration[27.00(20.75, 35.00)d vs.37.00(28.00, 53.00)d, P<0.001], and lower hospitalization cost[158.36(128.99, 203.11) thousand yuan vs.232.95(174.54, 316.47) thousand yuan, P<0.001] than delayed operation group. Conclusion:Younger age, staging operation, long CPB time, and pulmonary venoplasty are independent risk factors for DPL due to diaphragmatic paralysis after pediatric CHD surgery.Early surgical intervention is beneficial for the recovery of children.

Objective:To explore the application value of PAX1/JAM3 methylation detection by cervical self-collected specimen in cervical cancer screening and the management of premenopausal and postmenopausal women.Method:This study is a single center cross-sectional study. From January 2023 to November 2023, cervical self-collected and physician-collected specimens at the colposcopy clinic were detected the PAX1/JAM3 methylation (PAX1 m/JAM3 m) testing. The consistency between self-collected and physician-collected specimens for PAX1 m/JAM3 m detection were compared based on histopathology. In addition, the clinical efficacy of methylation detection with high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV), liquid-based cytology (LBC), and their combination for cervical cancer screening were compared in the study. Results:A total of 301 women were recruited to undergo referral colposcopy examination, and statistical analysis was conducted on 272 women with pathological and diagnostic information. Among them, 102 cases (37.5%) were diagnosed as normal cervical tissue or chronic cervicitis, 72 cases (26.4%) were cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 (CIN1), 43 cases (15.8%) were CIN2, 29 cases (10.7%) were CIN3, and 26 cases (9.6%) were cervical cancer. According to the minimum quantity formula, they were divided into a consistency cohort of 81 participants and a validation cohort of 191 participants. The consistency between cervical self-collected and physician-collected specimens for detecting PAX1 m/JAM3 m. Results from spearman correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between the self-collected and physician-collected results of PAX1 m/JAM3 m detection, and the correlation coefficient R values are 0.858 ( P<0.001) and 0.828 ( P<0.001). The sensitivity and specificity of PAX1 m/JAM3 m detection for diagnosing CIN2 or more severe lesions (CIN2+) were 77.6% [95% confidence interval ( CI) 65.3%-86.4%] and 87.2% (95% CI 80.5%-91.9%), respectively. In clinical performance comparison, the sensitivity of PAX1 m/JAM3 m combined with HPV16/18 detection, 89.7% (95% CI 79.2%-95.2%), was the same as that of hrHPV detection in CIN2+and 96.0% (95% CI 80.4%-99.3%) in CIN3+, which is higher than 92.0% (95% CI 75.0%-97.8%) of hrHPV and 82.6% (95% CI 62.9%-93.0%) of LBC or the combination of sPAX1 m/JAM3 m and LBC low-grade and higher squamous intraepithelial lesion testing [87.0% (95% CI 67.9%-95.5%)]. Conclusions:Self-collected specimens by women for detection of PAX1 and JAM3 methylation as a promising screening tool for cervical cancer has operational and clinical feasibility. The methylation test can optimize the current cervical cancer screening plan, reduce the number of referral women with false positive diagnosis to colposcopy, and is of great significance for reducing fertility protection and preventing missed diagnosis in women of childbearing age.

Objective: To investigate the expressions of miR-144 and lncRNA DNAJC3-AS1 in breast cancer tissues and their effects on chemo-resistance of breast cancer MCF-7 cells. Methods: A total of 196 pairs of breast cancer tissues and corresponding adjacent normal tissues collected between January, 2012 and December, 2016 in Department of Oncology, 3201 Hospital were used for this study. The relative expressions of DNAJC3-AS1, DNAJC3 and miR-144 in collected tissues were determined using qPCR, and their impact on the survival of BC patients was also analyzed. The targeted binding relationship between DNAJC3-AS1 and miR-144 was verified by Luciferase reporter gene assay. DNAJC3-AS1 over-expression plasmid and miR-144 mimics were transfected into MCF-7 cell lines respectively, and qPCR was used to verify the transfection efficiency. The effects of DNAJC3-AS1 and miR-144 overexpression on proliferation and cisplatin sensitivity of MCF-7 cells were verified by CCK-8 assay. Results: DNAJC3-AS1 and its host gene DNAJC3 were highly expressed in BC tissues (all P<0.01), and these two were positively correlated (r=0.451, P<0.01); in addition, patients with high expressions of DNAJC3-AS1 and DNAJC3 had a shorter survival period (all P<0.01). miR-144 was highly expressed in BC tissues (P<0.01) and negatively correlated with DNAJC3-AS1 (r=-0.524, P<0.01). The average over-expressionfold for DNAJC3-AS1 was 13.47 (P<0.01), while the fold for miR-144 was 20.27 (P<0.01). Bioinformatics analysis and fluorescence reporter gene assay confirmed that DNAJC3-AS1 could specifically bind to miR-144. MCF-7 cell lines over-expressing DNAJC3-AS1 and miR-14 were successfully constructed; compared with control group, cells in DNAJC3-AS1 over-expression group exhibited significantly enhanced proliferation and reduced cisplatin-sensitivity (all P<0.01), while the cells in miR-144 over-expression group showed significantly enhanced drug sensitivity (P<0.01). Conclusion: miR-144 and lncDNAJC3-AS1 were highly expressed in BC tissues, miR-144 promotes cisplatin sensitivity of BC MCF-7 cells through targeting DNAJC3-AS1.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between hearing loss and microvascular complications in diabetes.Methods:This cross-sectional study conducted the data from 572 patients with diabetes hospitalized in the Endocrinology Department of the General Hospital of Southern Theater Command from September 2022 to July 2023. All participants underwent electrical audiometry and acoustic immittance in the ENY department. Based on the audiometric results, participants were categorized into normal hearing group and hearing loss group. Additionally, 572 non-diabetic patients from the outpatient department were enrolled as the non-diabetic group. The general information and laboratory results were collected and compared using t test, rank sum test or χ2 test. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the association of diabetic hearing loss with diabetic kidney disease(DKD), diabetic retinopathy (DR), and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Results:Among 572 patients with diabetes, 429 suffered from hearing loss and 143 were normal. χ2 test showed significant differences in combined DKD and DPN between two groups, but not in DR. Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis identified DKD and DPN as risk factors for hearing loss, but no correlation was found with DR. Conclusion:Diabetic patients with DKD or DPN should be monitored for potential hearing loss. Early screening and treatment are crucial to prevent severe hearing impairment.

Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) is a common childhood infectious disease caused by various enteroviruses. China has the most significant number of reported cases and deaths of HFMD over the globe. Understanding the epidemic laws of HFMD can provide a scientific basis for designing prevention and control measures. The dynamic transmission models focus on the transmission mechanism of infectious diseases. They can simulate the actual situation to study the epidemic rules of diseases by adding, deleting, and subdividing compartments. More researchers have paid attention to dynamic models because of their high flexibility. To carry out the dynamic model of the HFMD research more effectively, a comprehensive understanding of related research progress in this field is deeply needed. In this paper, based on various researchers' different research purposes of dynamic models, the research progress was classified and summarized, providing meaningful guidance for model construction methods and future research directions and references for dynamic modeling of other models of infectious diseases. It was found that most studies used the SIR dynamic model or its extended model (such as the SEIR model), and few studies contained a complex factor compartment. Some important epidemiological parameters (such as R0) were obtained by studying the HFMD cases in a specific region, simulating different intervention scenarios to evaluate the effect of measures, or revealing the future trend by model prediction. However, there is no dynamic model simultaneously considering age structure, population moving, seasonality and periodicity, and vaccination.
