Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,minimal invasive operation technique and perioperative management of lateral ventrieular tumors.Methods The clinical characteristics,image diagnosis,surgical approaches and postoperative management and surgical outcomes of 65 consecutive cases of lateral ventricular tumors were retrospectively analyzed.Results In our series,total resection was achieved in 54 cases,and subtotal resection was achieved in 11 cases.Lateral ventricular tumors were mostly found in male and in the left side.Headache caused by increased intracranial pressure was the most common clinical symptom.Ependymocytoma and astrocytic glioma are the most common pathologic diagnosis.Postoperative complications included fever (26 cases),hydrocephalus (9 cases),intraventricular hematoma (7 cases) of which 2 cases were evacuated by craniotomy,epilepsy (7 cases),wound infection (3 cases).Postoperative death was happened in 3 cases.Two of them died of respiratory failure due to postoperative epilepsy.Conclusion Early discovery of lateral ventricle tumors,meticulous operation,subtle micromanipulation and right postoperative treatment are the criticality to improve the rate of total resection of lateral ventricle tumors through microsurgical treatment and reduce postoperative complications and mortality.

The development and compilation of Evidence-based Guidelines of Clinical Practice with Acupuncture and Moxibustion: Adult Bronchial Asthma are introduced from three aspects, named the guideline methodology, the guideline structure and the guideline content. Based on the acupuncture-moxibustion practice and clinical research, the evidence-based medicine method is adopted. During the development and compilation of the guideline, the characteristics and advantages of acupuncture and moxibustion are specially considered in the treatment of this disease; the latest optimum evidences at home and abroad, experts' experience and patients' value are closely integrated with each other. Additionally, the worldwide accepted assessments of evidence quality and the recommendation (GRADE system) are combined with the clinical evidences of the ancient and modern famous acupuncture-moxibustion experts, and the clinical research evidences are with the experts' consensus to the large extent. The purpose of the guideline is to provide the maximal guidance to the clinical physicians.

Objective: To determine the epidemic characteristics of respiratory viruses, mycoplasma pneumonia(MP) and chlamydia pneumoniae(CP) in outpatients and hospitalized children with acute respiratory tract infections(ARI), to lay a foundation for the prevention and control of ARI. Methods: From 2011 to 2013, children with ARI, including outpatients and inpatients, were involved in this study. One nasopharyngeal aspirate or throat swab specimen was collected from each patient.Real time PCRs were performed to detect common respiratory tract viruses, MP and CP. Results: At least one pathogen was identified in each of 610 out of 908 patients and the overall positive rate was 67.2%. The positive rate in inpatient(76.7%)was higher than that in outpatient(43.0%) (χ²=94.79, P<0.001). Simultaneous detection of two or more viruses was found in 206 cases.Co-infection was more frequent in inpatients than in outpatients(29.0% VS 6.6%, P<0.001). Significant differences of the detection rate were observed in RSV, PIV, HRV, Flu, human bocavirus (hBoV), adenovirus (AdV), saffold virus(SAFV), MP and CP between the inpatient and outpatient group. Respiratory syncytial virus(RSV)(34.5%) was the most prevalent virus detected among hospitalized children, followed by MP(15.0%)and human rhinovirus(HRV)(14.6%). Whereas adenovirus(AdV) (15.2%)was the most frequently identified virus in the outpatient group, followed by influenza virus(Flu)(11.7%))and PIV(7.8%). Except for RSV and Flu, co-infection of the other pathogens was more frequent than its mono-infection in inpatients. Significant differences of the AdV co-infection rate were observed between the inpatient and outpatient group(χ²=18.90, P<0.001). Compared with mono-infection, co-infection has no significant effect on the clinical presentation. Conclusions The detection rate of respiratory pathogens was higher in inpatients than in outpatients with ARI, and co-infections were more popular in children hospitalized, it may show that co-infection had some correlation with disease severity.

Objective:To investigate the co-infection and phylogenetic analysis of human rhinovirus (HRV) in 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) positive samples.Methods:Ten common respiratory viruses, including HRV were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) in 7 213 samples of 2019-nCoV positive cases and the co-infection characteristics were analyzed. The VP4/VP2 gene fragment of HRV was amplified and sequenced.Phylogenetic trees were constructed.Results:HRV accounted for 1.34% of the 2019-nCoV positive samples (97/7 213), followed by common coronavirus (0.50%, 36/7 213). The co-infection rate of HRV in 2019-nCoV positive samples was significantly different from that of other viruses ( χ2=318.09, P<0.001). There was significant difference in HRV co-infection rate among different age groups ( χ2=36.77, P<0.001), the peak was in<18 years age group. The co-infection rate of HRV had no significant difference in different seasons. The VP4/VP2 gene fragments of 39 HRV strains (40.21%, 39/97) were successfully sequenced and made phylogenetic analysis. There were 10 strains of HRV-A, 9 strains of HRV-B and 20 strains of HRV-C. Seventeen subtypes were identified, of which B6 (66.67%, 6/9) and C15 (70%, 14/20) were the most prevalent and other subtypes were scattered. Conclusions:The co-infection rate of HRV in patients with 2019-nCoV infection was the highest. The highest co-infection rate was in<18 years age group. Group A, B, and C of HRV were found in 2019-nCoV positive samples, and serotypes present diversity.
