Objective: Diaphragm is the common site of metastasis in advanced ovarian cancer.Diaphragmatic surgery is necessary to achieve complete resection. Relative complications also pose challenges to perioperative management. This study aims to explore the influencing factors and management strategies for perioperative complications of diaphragm surgery. Methods: This study retrospectively included 396 patients who underwent diaphragmatic surgery for advanced ovarian cancer at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from July 2015 to June 2022. Diaphragm surgical methods were classified, and perioperative complications were regarded according to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center criteria.Clinical characteristics and perioperative complications were analyzed to find correlations to establish the nomogram. Results: Among the 396 patients, 163 patients (41.2%) suffered from perioperative complications. Pleural effusion (33.1%) and pneumothorax (5.3%) were the most commonly reported. Patients with longer surgery duration (>3 hours) (p=0.003) and who underwent diaphragmatic incision surgery (p=0.004) had a higher incidence of postoperative complications. The incidence of postoperative pleural effusion was significantly higher in patients who underwent diaphragm full-thickness resection (49.3%) than diaphragmatic stripping (29.5%) (p=0.001), and patients who underwent diaphragm full-thickness resection are more likely to require drainage (p=0.001). Multi-variate analyses showed that stage IV tumor, long operation time, and diaphragm full-thickness resection are associated with postoperative pleural effusion. Conclusion Pleural effusion is the most common complication of diaphragmatic surgery in patients with ovarian cancer. Routine placement of prophylactic chest tubes is not appropriate for all patients undergoing diaphragmatic surgery. Our nomogram could help to predict its risk and indicate prophylactic management.

Objective To explore the ultrasonic cleaning effect and influencing factors of emergency laparoscopic surgical instruments at night.Methods A total of 698 emergency laparoscopic surgical instruments cleaned by ultrasound at night were selected as the research subjects,and the unqualified ultrasonic cleaning of instruments was statistically analyzed.Univariate and multivariate binary Logistic regression equations were used to analyze the factors that may lead to unqualified ultrasonic cleaning.Results Among 698 ultrasonic cleaning sessions for emergency laparoscopic surgical instruments at night,a total of 55 times(7.88%)were unqualified.The results of univariate and multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that the time from cleaning to the end of surgery≥10 hours,luminal surgical instruments,nonstandard pretreatment,unqualified cleaning water quality,and unqualified cleaning medium were the risk factors that lead to the occurrence of unqualified ultrasonic cleaning of emergency laparoscopic surgical instruments at night(OR>1,P<0.05),while manual+ultrasonic cleaning was the protective factor to avoid the occurrence of unqualified ultrasonic cleaning of emergency laparoscopic surgical instruments at night(OR<1,P<0.05).Conclusion The unqualified rate of ultrasonic cleaning of emergency laparoscopic surgical instruments at night is relatively high,so it should be cleaned as early as possible after the surgery.Before ultrasonic cleaning,manual clean-ing should be carried out as much as possible,especially for luminal surgical instruments that are difficult to clean,standardized pretreatment should be carried out,and qualified cleaning water quality and medium should be selected.

Objective To investigate the status of neurodevelopmental catch-up and suitable correction termination age in preterm infants of different gestational ages. Methods A total of 918 preterm infants without significant high-risk factors who attended the outpatient service of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from January 1,2018 to March 1,2023 were included. The data on developmental quotient (DQ) in Gesell Developmental Schedule (GDS) were collected,while 6684 full-term infants were included as controls. According to the gestational age,the infants were divided into preterm groups (early preterm,moderate preterm,and late preterm births) and a full-term group,and these groups were compared in terms of DQ of each functional area and its changing trend with 48 months of chronological age. Results The DQ values of all functional areas showed a catch-up trend from 6 months to 48 months of chronological age in each preterm group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the DQ values of all functional areas between the late preterm and full-term groups at the chronological age of 36 months (P>0.05). There were significant differences in the DQ values of most functional areas between the moderately/early preterm groups and the full-term group at the chronological age of 36 months (P<0.05),but no significant differences were found in the DQ values of all functions areas at the chronological age of 48 months (P>0.05). Conclusions The correction termination age for neurodevelopment in preterm infants may need to extend beyond 36 months,and the smaller the gestational age,the longer the time required for correction.

Objective To observe the therapeutic efficacy and mechanism of Gushi Zaizao Pills for steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head(SONFH).Methods Male SD rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,Xianling Gubao Capsules group and Gushi Zaizao Pills group.Except for the normal group,the rats in all other groups were replicated the SONFH model.After successful modeling,the continuous drug administration was carried out for six weeks.The thymus and spleen of the rats were taken to calculate the immune organ indices,the contents of interleukin 1β(IL-1β)and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α)in rat synovial fluid were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),the percentage of empty lacunae and area ratio of trabecular bone was detected by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining,and the femoral head parameters[reduction of bone volume fraction(BV/TV),trabecular number(Tb.N),trabecular thickness(Tb.Th)and trabecular separation(Tb.Sp)]were analyzed by Micro-CT,and bone strength of femoral head was detected by small animal bone strength tester.Results Compared with the normal group,the spleen and thymus indicators were significantly decreased in the model group,the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in rat synovial fluid were significantly increased,the percentage of empty lacunae was increased,the area ratio of trabecular bone was decreased,the BV/TV,Tb.N and Tb.Th were decreased,the Tb.Sp was increased,the bone strength of femoral head was significantly decreased,the differences being all statistically significant(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the spleen and thymus indicators were significantly increased in Xianling Gubao Capsules group and Gushi Zaizao Pills group,the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in rat synovial fluid were decreased,the percentage of empty lacunae was significantly decreased,the area ratio of trabecular bone was significantly increased,the BV/TV,Tb.N and Tb.Th were increased,the Tb.Sp was decreased,and the bone strength of femoral head was significantly increased,the differences being all statistically significant(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion Gushi Zaizao Pills can effectively prevent the further development of SONFH by regulating cellular immunity and reducing the secretion of inflammatory factors,thereby reducing the pathological damage of the femoral head and enhancing the bone strength.

Excessive application of chemical fertilizer has caused many problems in Angelica dahurica var. formosana planting, such as yield decline and quality degradation. In order to promote the green cultivation mode of A. dahurica var. formosana and explore rhizosphere fungus resources, the rhizosphere fungi with nitrogen fixation, phosphorus solubilization, potassium solubilization, iron-producing carrier, and IAA-producing properties were isolated and screened in the rhizosphere of A. dahurica var. formosana from the genuine and non-genuine areas, respectively. The strains were identified comprehensively in light of the morphological characteristics and ITS rDNA sequences, and the growth-promoting effect of the screened strains was verified by pot experiment. The results showed that 37 strains of growth-promoting fungi were isolated and screened from the rhizosphere of A. dahurica var. formosana, mostly belonging to Fusarium. The cultured rhizosphere growth-promoting fungi of A. dahurica var. formosana were more abundant and diverse in the genuine producing areas than in the non-genuine producing areas. Among all strains, Aspergillus niger ZJ-17 had the strongest growth promotion potential. Under the condition of no fertilization outdoors, ZJ-17 inoculation significantly promoted the growth, yield, and accumulation of effective components of A. dahurica var. formosana planted in the soil of genuine and non-genuine producing areas, with yield increases of 73.59% and 37.84%, respectively. To a certain extent, it alleviated the restriction without additional fertilization on the growth of A. dahurica var. formosana. Therefore, A. niger ZJ-17 has great application prospects in increasing yield and quality of A. dahurica var. formosana and reducing fertilizer application and can be actually applied in promoting the growth of A. dahurica var. formosana and producing biofertilizer.

Objective:To evaluate the residual risk (RR) of transfusion transmitted HIV (TT-HIV) after the implementation of nucleic acid amplification test (NAT) in blood screening test among blood centers in China.Methods:The data of blood donors and HIV infection markers from 2017 to 2020 were collected from 28 blood centers via the Platform of Comparison of blood establishments Practice in Chinese Mainland. The new infection rate/window period mathematical model was used for two types of blood screening strategies, namely, two rounds ELISA plus individual NAT take turn with pooling NAT (2ELISA+ ID-NAT/MP-NAT) and two ELISA plus one round pooling NAT (2ELISA+ MP-NAT), and the RR of HIV infection was estimated also based on first donors (FDs) and repeated donors (RDs) in different blood donation years. T-test analyses were conducted for comparing TT HIV RR among FDs and RDs in different blood donation years with two blood screening strategies, and the variation trend of RR in HIV test was observed.Results:From 2017 to 2020, the RR of FDs in 2ELISA+ ID-NAT/MP-NAT blood screening strategy was 2.869/10 6 person-year, 3.795/10 6 persons-year, 3.879/10 6 person-year, and 2.890/10 6 person-year respectively. The RR of RDs was 1.797/10 6 person-year, 1.502/10 6 person-year, 1.857/10 6 person-year, and 1.483/10 6 person-year respectively. Significant difference exists between RR of FDs and RDs, with F=9.898 and p<0.05. In 2ELISA+ MP-NAT strategy, the RR of FDs was 3.508/10 6 person-year, 1.868/10 6 person-year, 2.204/10 6 person-year, and 1.765/10 6 person-year respectively. The RR of RDs was 0.948/10 6 person-year, 0.926/10 6 person-year, 0.748/10 6 person-year, and 0.682/10 6 person-year respectively. Statistical difference existed between RR of FDs and RDs, with F=17.126 and P<0.05. There was no significant difference between the RR of FDs in these two strategies with F=3.493 and P>0.05, while there was a difference between the RR of RDs in these two strategies with F=24.516 and P<0.05, and a difference between the RR of total donors (TDs) in these two strategies F=20.216 and P<0.05. Conclusions:The RR of TT HIV significantly decreased after the introduction of NAT into blood test among blood centers in China. There were some differences in the RR of HIV testing among different blood screening strategies. There could be significant differences in the RR of HIV testing among different groups of blood donors. Compared with FDs, RDs is the low risk group for HIV.
