Objective:To understand the distribution characteristics of pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2) in the high altitude areas. Methods:From September 2016 to December 2017, all healthy and full-term live births in the First Hospital of Lanzhou University and Dunhuang, Jiuquan, Jingning and Lintao branches were selected as the research objects.Critical congenital heart disease or pulmonary diseases were excluded in advance.SpO 2 in different parts of newborns within 12 hours of birth was measured.Statistical comparisons of SpO 2 in different parts of male and female neonates in the same area and SpO 2 in different parts of different regions were made.The number of SpO 2 and the distribution of percentile difference between the lower limbs and the right upper limb of newborns at different altitude areas were obtained. Results:There were no significant difference between male and female infants in SpO 2 value at any lo-wer extremity and right upper extremity and the difference value in the same area (all P>0.05). There were significant differences in the median ( M) values of SpO 2 and the M value of the difference between the two values of any lower limb and right upper limb at different altitudes (all P<0.05). The results showed that the M value of SpO 2 of the right upper limb ( M=96%) in Lanzhou (1 520 m above sea level) was lower than that in Dunhuang (1 138 m above sea level, M=97%) and Jiuquan (1 481 m above sea level, M=97%), and the M value of the difference between the two values ( M=2%) was higher than that in Dunhuang and Jiuquan ( M=1%) ( P<0.05). The M of SpO 2 of any lower limb ( M=96%) and right upper limb ( M=96%) in Jingning areas (1 668 m above sea level) were lower than that in Dunhuang and Jiuquan area (all P<0.05). The median value of SpO 2 of any lower limb ( M=96%) and right upper limb ( M=96%) in Lintao area (1 883 m above sea level) was lower than that in Dunhuang and Jiuquan areas, and the M value of the difference between the two values ( M=2%) was higher than that in Dunhuang and Jiuquan (all P< 0.05). When the altitude was lower than 1 500 m, the M value of SpO 2 was 97%, P3- P97 was 93%-100%; the M value of the difference between any lower limb and right upper limb was 1, and P3- P97 was 0-4.When the altitude was higher than 1 500 m, the M value of SpO 2 was 95%-96%, P3- P97 was 89%-100%; the M value of SpO 2 of an lower limb and right upper limb was 1%-2%, and P3- P97 was 0-9%. Conclusions:The SpO 2 number and percentage distribution of the difference between any lower limb and right upper limb of newborns at different altitudes are different.

Objective:To investigate the changes of various cytokines and coagulation function in B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL) patients with different CRS scores during CD19-CAR-T cell immunotherapy.Methods:87 patients with B-ALL hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and 30 normal controls were enrolled into this study from July 2018 to October 2020. The age of the patients was 32(20, 56) years old and 36(41.4%) were female. All these coagulation indicators, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), D-dimer, fibrinogen (Fg) were analyzed by automatic blood coagulation in B-ALL patients before and after treated with CAR-T cell. The ratio of CD19-CAR-T cells and the expression of IL-6, IL-10, IFN-γ, TFN-α, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-17A were analyzed using flow cytometry. The patients′ clinical parameters were detected, and the CRS classification of severity was made according to the standard of consensus.Results:Patients with CRS>3 had prolonged PT and APTT, increased D-dimer, and decreased fibrinogen ( P<0.05). The levels of cytokines of IFN-γ, IL-6, and IL-10 were significantly higher in patients with CRS>3 than that in controls ( P<0.05).The D-dimer level is positively correlated with IL-10. Conclusion:Patients with severe CRS grading have significant coagulation dysfunction in CD19-CAR-T cell immunotherapy. Cytokines IFN-γ, IL-6, and IL-10 may affect coagulation function and CRS grading during CD19-CAR-T cell immunotherapy.

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, researchers have applied it to the diagnosis of various tumors in the urinary system in recent years, and have obtained many valuable research results. The article sorted the research status of artificial intelligence technology in the fields of renal tumors, bladder tumors and prostate tumors from three aspects: the number of papers, image data, and clinical tasks. The purpose is to summarize and analyze the research status and find new valuable research ideas in the future. The results show that the artificial intelligence model based on medical data such as digital imaging and pathological images is effective in completing basic diagnosis of urinary system tumors, image segmentation of tumor infiltration areas or specific organs, gene mutation prediction and prognostic effect prediction, but most of the models for the requirement of clinical application still need to be improved. On the one hand, it is necessary to further improve the detection, classification, segmentation and other performance of the core algorithm. On the other hand, it is necessary to integrate more standardized medical databases to effectively improve the diagnostic accuracy of artificial intelligence models and make it play greater clinical value.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of annular pancreas in neonates. METHODS: Clinical data of 114 neonates with annular pancreas admitted in the Children's Hospital of Zhejiang University from January 2009 to December 2018 were reviewed. The demographic parameters (gestational age, birth weight), clinical manifestations, onset time, results of antenatal examination, associated anomalies, radiological findings, operations, postoperative complications were analyzed. RESULTS: One hundred and two cases were examined by abdominal echography, in which 68 cases showed duodenal obstruction, 4 cases showed annular pancreas. Plain abdomen X-ray examination performed in 113 cases before operation, 76 cases presented double-bubble sign, 12 cases presented single-bubble sign and 5 cases had high-position intestinal obstruction. Upper gastrointestinal radiography (UGI) was performed in 103 cases, which suggested duodenal obstruction in 102 cases. Operations were performed in all cases, of which 69 cases were operated under laparoscopy including 1 case converted to open laparotomy. The mean fasting time after surgery was (7.8±2.7) d, and the mean length of hospital stay was (16.9±10.1) d. Five patients had postoperative complications. The incidence of postoperative complications in antenatal abnormal group was lower than that in the antenatal non-abnormal group (<0.05); the average fasting time in laparoendscopic surgery group was shorter than that in traditional laparotomy group (<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Neonates with recurrent vomiting early after birth should be highly suspected to have annular pancreas. The fetal chromosome examination should be performed with abnormal antenatal screening. Surgery is the only effective way to diagnose and treat annular pancreas, and laparoscopic surgery could be the first choice for experienced doctors.
