Objective:
To explore growth and intelligence development of low birth weight infants (LBWI) at 24 and 36 months of age, so as to provide reference for early monitoring and intervention of the development of LBWI.
Methods:
A total of 100 LBWI born and managed in Hefei Maternal and Child Health Care Institution were selected from 2012 October 1 to 2015 December 30, and 99 normal birth weight infants (NBWI) under child health management in the same sitinstitution were selected as controls. According a prospective cohort study method, and based on the establishment of a cohort and monitoring of childhood growth and development, a unified method was used to longitudinally follow up and observe the physical fitness of two groups of infants at the determined time points. The development of LBWI and NBWI at 24 and 36 months of age was surveyed using the Gesell Development Scale.
Results:
Weight, length and head circumference of LBWI children at the age of 15-36 months were significantly lower than those of NBWI children ( P <0.05). In addition, 117 children (43.98%) completed the full assessment of intelligent development scale, including 62 LBWI and 55 NBWI. The scores of Gesell in NBWI group was higher than that in LBWI group at 24 and 36 months of age, including adaptability, gross motor, fine metor skills, language and personal social functions ( t =-4.17, -3.82, -3.21 , -3.03, -2.61; -4.23, -3.16, -3.07, -3.13, -3.99, P <0.05). Multivariate linear regression analysis found that birth weight was positively correlated with adaptability, gross motor, fine motor skills, language functions at 24 and 36 months of age and personal social function at 36 months of age ( β =0.004, 0.010; 0.003, 0.008; 0.003, 0.007; 0.004, 0.009; 0.011, P <0.05).
Conclusion
The growth and development of LBWI children are significantly delayed compared to NBWI children. The scores of LBWI children are lower than those of NBWI children in all functional areas. Weight is the main factor affecting children s intellectual development. Early monitoring and intervention of low birth weight infants should be carried out to avoid or mitigate adverse consequences.

Objective:To analyze the predictive value of age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (ACCI) on the risk of falls in elderly patients with femoral neck fractures.Methods:This study was a retrospective cohort study. From June 2021 to June 2022, cluster sampling was used to select 1 050 patients with femoral neck fractures at the Honghui Hospital affiliated with Xi'an Jiaotong University as the study subject. This study calculated the total ACCI score based on patient comorbidities, and divided patients into a low-risk fall group ( n=282) and a high-risk fall group ( n=768) based on whether the fall risk factor assessment score was ≥4.This study compared the differences in age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grading, ACCI score, white blood cell count, red blood cell count, platelet count, lymphocyte count, serum albumin, hemoglobin, creatinine, and urea nitrogen between the two groups. Independent variables with P<0.05 were included in binary Logistic regression to analyze the factors affecting the risk of falls in patients, and a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted. Results:There were statistically significant differences in age, ASA grading, red blood cell count, lymphocyte count, ACCI score, serum albumin, hemoglobin, creatinine, and urea nitrogen between the two groups of patients ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis found that age, ASA score, and ACCI score were independent risk factors for fall risk ( P<0.05), while serum albumin was an independent protective factor for fall risk ( P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of ACCI for predicting fall risk was 0.892, and a score of 4 in ACCI was the cutoff value for predicting fall risk. Conclusions:ACCI can serve as an auxiliary tool for evaluating and predicting the risk of falls in elderly patients with femoral neck fractures, and can provide reference for clinical screening of high-risk individuals for falls.

Objective:To predict and evaluate the antibacterial efficacy of linezolid, teicoplanin and daptomycin against Staphylococci bloodstream infections with Monte Carlo simulation, and to optimize the clinical administration program. Methods:A total of 1 847 Staphylococci strains isolated from blood samples between January 2018 to December 2019 were collected with the help of the Blood Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System (BRICS). Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of linezolid and daptomycin were detected by broth dilution method, while MIC of teicoplanin were detected by agar dilution method. The dosage regimens of linezolid were 800 mg once daily, 500 mg once every 12 hours, 600 mg once every 12 hours and 600 mg once every eight hours. The dosage regimens of teicoplanin were 400 mg once every 12 hours, 600 mg once every 12 hours, 800 mg once every 12 hours, and 1 000 mg once every 12 hours. The dosage regimens of daptomycin were 4 mg·kg -1·d -1, 6 mg·kg -1·d -1, 8 mg·kg -1·d -1, 10 mg·kg -1·d -1and 12 mg·kg -1·d -1. The probability of target attainment (PTA) and cumulative fraction of response (CFR) of three different dosage regimens were calculated by Monte Carlo simulation. A dosage regimen with CFR≥90.0% was a reasonable choice for empirical antimicrobial therapy. Results:PTA of linezolid against Staphylococci when MIC≤0.500 mg/L at four dosage regimens (800 mg once daily, 500 mg once every 12 hours, 600 mg once every 12 hours and 600 mg once every eight hours) were all over 90.0%. When MIC was 1.000 mg/L, the PTA of linezolid against Staphylococci under the dosages of 500 mg once every 12 hours, 600 mg once every 12 hours and 600 mg once every eight hours were 92.2%, 96.6% and 97.6%, respectively. The CFR of the four dosage regimens of linezolid were 73.9%, 83.7%, 90.8% and 95.3%, respectively. When MIC≤1.000 mg/L, PTA of teicoplanin against Staphylococci were all 100.0% at four dosage regimens (400 mg once every 12 hours, 600 mg once every 12 hours, 800 mg once every 12 hours and 1 000 mg once every 12 hours). When MIC was 2.000 mg/L, the PTA of teicoplanin (800 mg once every 12 hours and 1 000 mg once every 12 hours) against Staphylococci were both 100.0%. The CFR of the four dosage regimens of teicoplanin were 90.8%, 92.8%, 93.5% and 94.6%, respectively. When MIC≤0.500 mg/L, PTA of daptomycin against Staphylococci under the five dosages of 4 mg·kg -1·d -1, 6 mg·kg -1·d -1, 8 mg·kg -1·d -1, 10 mg·kg -1·d -1 and 12 mg·kg -1·d -1 were all over 90.0%. When MIC was 1.000 mg/L, the PTA of daptomycin against Staphylococci under the three dosages of 8 mg·kg -1·d -1, 10 mg·kg -1·d -1 and 12 mg·kg -1·d -1were 96.9%, 100.0% and 100.0%, respectively. The CFR of the five dosage regimens of daptomycin against Staphylococci were 97.4%, 99.2%, 99.9%, 100.0% and 100.0%, respectively. Conclusions:Linezolid (600 mg once every 12 hours), teicoplanin (400 mg once every 12 hours) and daptomycin (4 mg·kg -1·d -1) can achieve satisfactory antibacterial activity for Staphylococci bloodstream infections.

Objective:To evaluate the interaction between remimazolam and propofol for sedation during hysteroscopy.Methods:American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients, aged 20-45 yr, with body mass index of 18-28 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective hysteroscopy, were included. The test was conducted in two steps. Up-and-down sequential allocation was used to determine the median effective dose (ED 50) of remimazolam (group A) and propofol (group B). The ED 50 obtained in A and B groups were then used as the standard to determine the combination regimen in group C (0.25×ED 50 of remimazolam+ 0.75×ED 50 of propofol as the initial dose), in group D (0.5×ED 50 of remimazolam+ 0.5×ED 50 of propofol as the initial dose), and in group E (0.75×ED 50 of remimazolam+ 0.25×ED 50 of propofol as the initial dose). Up-and-down sequential allocation was used to determine the ED 50 of propofol when propofol and remimazolam were combined in C, D and E groups. The interaction between the sedative effects of two drugs was analyzed using the isobolographic analysis method, and the interaction coefficient and synergistic dose ratio of two drugs were calculated. Results:The ED 50 of remimazolam was 0.180 mg/kg in group A, and the ED 50 of propofol was 1.167 mg/kg in group B. The results of isobolographic analysis showed that remimazolam and propofol had a synergistic effect. When remimazolam 0.045, 0.090 and 0.135 mg/kg were combined with propofol 0.546, 0.288 and 0.160 mg/kg, the interaction coefficients were 1.393, 1.339 and 1.127 respectively. The synergistic dosage ratio of remimazolam and propofol was 1.0∶(3.2 to 12.0). Conclusions:Remimazolam and propofol have a synergistic effect on sedation when used for hysteroscopy, and the dose ratio is 1.0∶(3.2-12.0).
