OBJECTIVE To analyze the condition of nosocomical systemic fungus infection and make preventive and control measures against nosocomial systemic fungus infection.METHODS The 496 fungus-cultured positive cases with average age of 61.04 years old among the discharged patients from Jan 2003 to Dec 2005 were reviewed and analyzed.RESULTS The rate of nosocomical systemic fungus infection was 0.53%,from which the over 60 age senile patients accounted for 63.1%.Lower respiratory tract and urinary tract were the most frequent infection sites.The Candida albicans was accounted for 70.71%.The death rate of patients with nosocomial systemic fungus infection was 27.82%.The major correlated factors of nosocomial systemic fungus infection were the widespread use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and not be standardized and the iatrojenic injury of respiratory and urological tracts.CONCLUSIONS The causes of nosocomial systemic fungus infection are closely related to medical treatment;the death rate of patients with nosocomial systemic fungus infection is obvious higher than that without it;to prevent and control nosocomial systemic fungus infection is the key point of nosocomial treatment.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the cause,clinical characteristic and preventive measures in nosocomial infection of multiple sites. METHODS A total of 123 cases of nosocomial infection in multiple sites in our hospital in 2004 were prospectively monitored and analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS Among 1645 cases of nosocomial infection,123 cases suffered from nosocomial infection in multiple sites.The main infection sites were lower respiratory tract and urinary tract.The main risk factors were over usage of broad-spectrum antibiotics and invasive operation.The serious result was prolongation of duration in hospital,increase in mortality and expensiveness. CONCLUSIONS The nosocomial infection in multiple sites is a main object to be monitored.To prevent,discover and control nosocomial infection in time is an effective measure to reduce the risk of nosocomial infection.

This article reported the comprehensive management of an extremely preterm infant with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia. The patient born at 26 +6 gestational weeks was transferred to Children's Hospital of Fudan University due to invasive mechanical ventilation dependence at 61 d after birth and was diagnosed with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia. A comprehensive treatment plan was adopted, including appropriate fluid restriction, improving nutrition, glucocorticoid administration, using antibiotics against Ureaplasma urealyticum infection to reduce pulmonary parenchymal lesions and alleviating pulmonary hypertension. The preterm infant was successfully extubated to non-invasive ventilation and subsequently weaned to a high-flow nasal cannula. Then, the patient was discharged at 372 d after birth (correct gestational age nine months and six days). At the 3-month follow-up after discharge, the patient remained on high-flow oxygen, but with lower flow and concentration of oxygen. Moreover, the growth, development and lung images were significantly improved. Follow-up to correct gestational age one year and 11 months, the child was not on oxygen any more, but on rehabilitation due to language and motor development retardation.

Objective:To investigate the factors affecting the prognosis of stage Ⅰa2-Ⅱa2 cervical cancer after laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH), and to compare the prognosis and recurrence sites of patients with different colpotomy paths.Methods:The clinical data of 965 patients with stage Ⅰa2-Ⅱa2 cervical cancer who underwent LRH in the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from January 2015 to December 2018 were collected. The median age was 47.0 years of all patients with a median follow-up of 62 months (48-74 months). Cox regression was used to perform the univariate and multivariate analysis of the clinicopathological factors associated with the prognosis that included disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Patients were categorized into LRH through vaginal colpotomy (VC group, n=475) and LRH through intracorporeal colpotomy (IC group, n=490) according to the colpotomic approaches. The prognosis and recurrence sites of patients in each group were compared. Results:(1) During the follow-up period, 137 cases recurred (14.2%, 137/965) and 98 cases died (10.2%, 98/965). The 5-year DFS and OS were 85.8% and 89.9%, respectively. In univariate analysis, positive vaginal margin (PVM) was significantly affected the 5-year OS of patients with cervical cancer ( P=0.023), while clinical stage, maximum diameter of tumor, degree of pathological differentiation, lymph node metastasis (LNM), depth of cervical stromal invasion, parametrium involvement, and uterine corpus invasion (UCI) were significantly associated with 5-year DFS and OS in patients with cervical cancer (all P<0.05). In multivariate analysis, clinical stage ( HR=1.882, 95% CI: 1.305-2.716), LNM ( HR=2.178, 95% CI: 1.483-3.200) and UCI ( HR=3.650, 95% CI: 1.906-6.988) were independent risk factors of 5-year DFS (all P<0.001). Clinical stage ( HR=2.500, 95% CI: 1.580-3.956), LNM ( HR=2.053, 95% CI: 1.309-3.218), UCI ( HR=3.984, 95%C I: 1.917-8.280), PVM ( HR=3.235, 95% CI: 1.021-10.244) were independent risk factors of 5-year OS (all P<0.05). (2) Different colpotomy paths did not significantly affect the 5-year DFS and OS of patients with stage Ⅰa2-Ⅱa2 cervical cancer. The 5-year DFS in VC group and IC group were 85.9% and 85.6% ( P=0.794), and the 5-year OS were 90.8% and 89.3% ( P=0.966), respectively. Recurrence patterns consisted of intraperitoneal recurrence, pelvic recurrence, vaginal stump recurrence, and lymph node and distant metastasis. The intraperitoneal recurrence rate of VC group was significantly lower than that of IC group [0.6%(3/468) vs 2.3% (11/485), P=0.037], while the rates of pelvic recurrence, vaginal stump recurrence, lymph node and distant metastasis and overall recurrence were not significantly different between two groups (all P>0.05). Subgroup analysis of patients with different clinical stages, LNM and UCI showed that statistical differences of the intraperitoneal recurrence rates between two groups were only in patients without LNM (0.5% vs 2.3%, P=0.030) or without UCI (0.7% vs 2.3%, P=0.037). Conclusions:Clinical stage, LNM, PVM and UCI are independent risk factors for the prognosis of patients with stage Ⅰa2-Ⅱa2 cervical cancer. For patients without LNM or UCI, LRH through VC could reduce the intraperitoneal recurrence rate, while it is not enough to improve 5-year DFS and OS of patients. Low proportion of intraperitoneal recurrence, intra-operative tumor cells spillage to vagina stump and pelvic cavity might be the explanation.
