Objective To observe and classify endometrial wavelike activities in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) cycles,and to study their effect on assisted reproductive techniques(ART) outcomes in COH cycles.Methods Patterns of endometrium wavelike movements were described,then their percentages of the total endometrium movements were calculated and compared retrospectively in 57 infertile women who had undergone ART treatments with different outcomes.Results Five types of endometrial wavelike movements could be distinguished:No activity, random,positive,negative,and opposing endometrium movements.The frequencies and types of endometrial movements varied in COH cycles.Endometrium movements,especially negative movements more frequently appeared in non-conception group than in conception group.Conclusions Abnormal endometrium activity could be seemed as underlying mechanisms in some cases of unexplained infertility or ART failure.

BACKGROUND: Splenic autotransplantation has been presently involved in the treatment of traumatic splenic rupture. Yhere have been retoorts regarding nuclein examination and immunologic test used to monitor splenic autotransplant. But little is known about ultrasonic visualization for follow up of splenic autotransplant. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the value of ultrasonography in monitoring splenic autotransplant survival and growth. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The present retrospective case analysis Was performed at the Department of Ultrasonography. Shenzhen Second People's Hospital between January 2000 and December 2004.PARTICIPANTS:Eighteen patients undergoing splenectomy and suffering from traumatic splenic rupture,13 males and 5 females. aged 20-42 years, were included for this study. METHODS: Non-injured autologous splenic tissue was prepared into thin sections with an area of(2-4)cm×(1-3)cm and a thickness of≤0.5 cm. And transplanted into the greater omentum with abundant vessels in patients undergoing splenectomy.A1118 patients received ultrasonography at 3,6,and 12 months after splenic transplantation, and were subjected to spleen imaging with99Tcm-heat damaged red blood cells. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Nuclein examination of splenic autotransplant survival and growth. RESULTS: Splenic autotransplants survived and gradually grew in 14 of 18 patients. Splenic autotransplants exhibited low level echo similar to normal spleen, regular contour, clear boundary, and visible internal blood flow signal. Splenic autotransplants were not found growing in 4 patients with accessory spleen. CONCLUSION: Ultrasonography can precisely monitor splenic autotransplant survival and growth.

Objective To assess the diagnostic performance of real-time contrast-enhanced ultra-sound Sonovuein diagnosing minute rabbit liver VX 2 tumors with diameter ≤10.0 mm.Methods Thir-ty New Zealand white rabbits inoculated with VX 2 tumor ( left, right lobe of each ) were examined by two-di-mensional ultrasound and CEUS .The contrast enhanced mode of small rabbit liver VX 2 tumors in different phase was observed and tumor in the rabbit's liver was pathologically verified .The diagnostic performances of two-dimensional US and CEUS in detecting the rabbit VX 2 tumors were analyzed and compared .Results Thirty-nine tumors were pathologically verified .The detection rates of small tumors by CEUS and two-di-mensional US were 12.8% and 79.5%, respectively , yielded significantly higher than that of 2-D US. Conclusion Real-time CEUS significantly improves the detection rates of small rabbit VX 2 liver tumors less than 10.0 mm in diameter .

Objective To probe the value of ultrasound in detection of malignant foci among multiple thyroid nodules. Methods Ultrasonograms of 83 patients with pathologically confirmed thyroid cancer combined with benign nodules were analyzed.Results Among 83 patients of thyroid carcinoma, 89 malignant and 87 benign nodules were detected with ultrasound. Significant differences of two-dimensional ultrasounic signs including low echoes, border fuzzy, micro-calcification and rear echo attenuation were found bteween malignant and benign nodules (P<0.01). There were significant differences in the grade Ⅱ, Ⅲ blood flow between malignant and benign ones (P<0.01). Of 89 malignant nodules, small thyroid carcinoma with diameter ≤1 cm accounted for 52.81% (47/89), and ultrasound diagnostic rate of all cancer nodules was 67.42% (60/89).Conclusion Ultrasounic characteristics including low echoes, border fuzzy, micro-calcification, rear echo attenuation and internal rich blood flow contribute to differentiate the thyroid microcarcinoma from multinodules.In particular, the microcarcinoma should not be ignored.

Pancreatic fistula is a common and serious complication after pancreatic surgery. Pancreatic fistula, intra-abdominal infection and hemorrhage are known as the " lethal triad" after pancreatic surgery, which seriously affect the curative efficacy of operation. Although the incidence of pancreatic fistula has not been significantly reduced, there have been a large number of studies on the risk factors of pancreatic fistula and the means of prevention and therapy, which try to minimize the harm of pancreatic fistula. In this article we review the recent development of the latest definition, high risk factors and treatment of postoperative pancreatic fistula according to relevant literatures at home and abroad, aiming at summarizing the research advances on the therapy of pancreatic fistula after pancreatic surgery.

Objective To investigate the polymorphisms of human cytomegalovirus ( HCMV ) UL146 gene in asymptomatic children. Methods Urine samples were collected from 47 asymptomatic chil-dren who were positive for HCMV DNA. PCR was performed to amplify the open reading frame ( ORF) of UL146 gene. Positive bands were sequenced and variations in UL146 gene were analyzed by using bioinfor-matics software. Results Seventeen samples were successfully amplified and sequenced. Variations spread all over the sequence of UL146 gene and the variability in nucleotide and amino acid sequences ranged from 0％ to 42. 5％ and 0％ to 67. 7％ respectively. Compared with the Towne strain, there was diversity in sig-nal sequence and C-terminal region. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that UL146 in the 17 asymptomatic chil-dren belonged to four genotypes, which were G1, G8, G9 and G11. Forms of post-translational modification varied greatly among the four genotypes, while the important functional region of ELRCXC chemokine was highly conservative. Secondary structure prediction showed that random-coli conformation was the predomi-nant structure of active proteins. Isoelectric point ( PI) and molecular weight ( MW) were dissimilar among the four genotypes. Conclusion HCMV UL146 gene in asymptomatic children was hypervariable in both nucleotide sequence and amino acid structure. However, the important functional region was highly con-served. The predominant genotypes of UL146 in these children were G1, G8, G9 and G11, and the geno-type distribution in them showed no significant difference with previous findings in children with symptomatic HCMV infection.

Objective:To determine the level of epilepsy knowledge of caregivers for children with epilepsy and analyze its influencing factors, and investigate caregivers' educational needs and their acceptance for remote education, in order to provide reference for clinical telenursing education.Methods:From March to September 2022, 221 caregivers of epileptic children in the outpatient department and ward of neurology department of Xuzhou Children's Hospital were recruited by convenient sampling method for cross-sectional investigation. The status of caregivers' knowledge and educational needs were investigated by the general information questionnaire, epilepsy knowledge questionnaire, epilepsy knowledge needs questionnaire and telenursing acceptance questionnaire, and the influencing factors of knowledge level were analyzed by multiple linear regression.Results:The average score of epilepsy knowledge of caregivers was (15.68 ± 6.43) points. The course of disease, taking medicine on time, education background and monthly income of caregivers were the influencing factors of caregivers' knowledge level, and the difference was statistically significant ( P <0.05). 94.12% (208/221)- 96.38% (213/221) of the caregivers had high educational needs, and they had the highest demand for safety guidance during seizures. Caregivers' acceptance of remote education was moderate, ranging from 34.39% (76/221) to 71.95% (159/221). Conclusions:Caregivers' epilepsy knowledge needs to be improved. Medical institutions should formulate education plans according to the different characteristics of caregivers. Caregivers have a high demand for nursing knowledge, and medical staff should increase health education. Before giving health education based on remote nursing platform, we should fully understand the attitude of caregivers to the platform, so that they can master disease knowledge, strengthen their disease management ability, and improve the quality of life of children.

Objective To develop and evaluate a novel inflammatory marker composite score to predict the risk of major adverse car-diac events(MACE)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STE-MI).Methods A total of 256 patients with STEMI admitted to the Third Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital between June 2021 and May 2022 were selected.Six inflammatory markers[neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR),platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR),red blood cell distribution width-to-platelet ratio(RPR),monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio(MLR),monocyte-o-high-density lipoprotein ratio(MHR)and globulin-to-albumin ratio(GAR)]were collected on admission.The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)was used to determine the inflammatory markers of MACE risk,and a novel composite score of inflammatory markers was constructed based on the regression coefficient.COX risk regression models were used to analyze the relationship between this scores and MACE risk in STEMI patients.Nomogram models for quantifying MACE risk were constructed using a correlation R package.The model predictive performance and net clinical benefit were assessed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and clinical de-cision analysis(DCA)curve.Results In 256 STEMI patients followed up for a median of 11 months,52 patients developed MACE,with an incidence of 20.3％.The N.M.P score was constructed based on NLR,MHR and PLR[N.M.P score=(0.900 x NLR level)+(0.102 × MHR level)+(0.039 × PLR level)].Multivariate COX risk regression analysis showed that N.M.P score was not affected by age and SYNTAX score,and was independently associated with MACE risk independent(P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of the nomogram model in predicting the risk of MACE at six months,one year and one and a half years were 0.905,0.920 and 0.897,respectively.DC A curve analysis showed that the nomogram model could provide a significant clinical net ben-efits.Conclusion The N.M.P score developed by integrating NLR,MHR and PLR are effective in predicting the risk of MACE in STE-MI patients.A nomogram model constructed to quantify the risk of MACE in STEMI patients based on the N.M.P score combined with age and SYNTAX score is useful for risk stratification and the development of secondary prevention strategies.

Objective: To explore cyberbullying and risk factors of middle school students, and to provide a reference for cyberbullying prevention in school settings. Methods: A stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 12 940 students from three junior high schools and four senior high schools in Yixing City of Jiangsu Province, China, to conduct a questionnaire survey from March 1 to May 31, 2019. The Chi -square test was performed to compare differences in the prevalence of cyberbullying among groups with different sociodemographic characteristics, and the multivariate Logistic regression model was employed to analyze the risk factors. A risk predictive nomogram model was constructed and then verified. Results: Middle school students were found to be victims of cyberbullying at a rate of 12.3%. The Logistic regression results showed that alcohol use ( OR =1.93), lack of emotional management ( OR =1.30), feeling unsafe ( OR =1.70), not trusting people ( OR =1.66), increased daily online time ( OR =1.39), higher frequency of using social software or websites ( OR =2.24), poor relationships with family members ( OR =1.46), parental neglect ( OR =1.50), class leadership ( OR =1.30) and poor relationships with classmates ( OR =1.34) were risk factors for middle school students who were victims of cyberbullying ( P <0.05). Based on these 10 independent risk factors, the nomogram prediction model, had good discrimination ( AUC =0.73). Conclusion Cyberbullying is common among middle school students. Internet use, parental neglect and class leadership all have an impact on cyberbullying.
