Objective To investigate the risk factors for hemorrhagic transformation (HT) and poor outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke after mechanical thrombectomy.Methods The patients with acute ischemic stroke received mechanical thrombectomy were enrolled retrospectively.The demography,vascular risk factors and other clinical data of the patents were collected.The modified Rankin scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the clinical outcomes at day 90.Good outcome was defined as mRS score 0-2.The patients were divided into either a HT group or a non-HT group according to their HT conditions.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent risk factors for HT and poor outcomes.Results A total of 48 patients with acute ischemic stroke received mechanical thrombectomy were enrolled,including 25 males (52.1％).Their mean age was 64.77± 9.14 years.The mean National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was 17.70 ± 3.77.Twenty-two patients (45.8％) occured HT,of which 9 were symptomatic HT;24 (50.0％) had good outcomes.The proportion of males in the HT group was significantly lower than that in the non-HT goup (30.4％vs.72.0％;x2 =8.293,P =0.004),while the proportions in patients with diabetes (65.2％ vs.36.0％;x2 =4.090,P =0.043) and atrial fibrillation (78.3％ vs.44.0％;x2 =5.880,P =0.015),as well as the baseline fasting blood glucose level (8.514 ± 4.400 mmol/L vs.6.354 ± 1.472 mmol/L;t =2.319,P =0.025) were significantly higher than those in the non-HT group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the atrial fibrillation (odds ratio [OR] 6.136,95％ confidence interval [CI] 1.617-23.291;P =0.042) was a risk factor for the occurrence of HT after mechanical thrombectomy.The proportion of diabetic patients (29.2％ vs.70.8％;x2 =8.333,P=0.04) and baseline NIHSS score (16.050±4.865 vs.19.210±4.423);t=2.310,P=0.026) of the good outcome group were significantly lower than those of the poor outcome group,while the proportions of patients in atrial fibrillation (75.0％ vs.45.8％;x2 =4.269,P =0.039),anterior circulation stroke (87.5％ vs.62.5％;x2 =4.000,P =0.046) middle cerebral artery (75.0％ vs.29.2％;x2 =10.113,P =0.006),vertebral basilar artery (37.5％ vs.12.5％;x2 =10.113,P =0.006) occlusion and parenchymal hematoma (33.3％ vs.4.1％;P=0.011) were significantly higher than the poor outcome group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes (OR 5.898,95％ CI 1.699-20.479;P=0.005),baseline NIHSS score (OR 1.167,95％ CI 1.011-1.347;P =0.035),and parenchymal hematoma (OR 1.295,95％ CI 1.099-1.875;P=0.028) were the independent risk factors for poor outcomes.Conclusions Atrial fibrillation is an independent predictor of HT risk in patients with acute ischemic stroke after mechanical thrombectomy.Diabetes mellitus,higher baseline NIHSS score,and concurrent brain parenchymal hematoma are the independent predictors of poor outcomes.Therefore,the risk of HT and adverse outcomes should be fully assessed before mechanical thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Objective: To explore the association of screen time with self-injury behavior in primary school students in China, to provide evidence for prevention on self-injury behavior. Methods: From June to November in 2017, 1 090 primary school students were selected by stratified cluster sampling method from Zhejiang, Guangdong, Jiangxi, Sichuan and Guizhou province in China, to analyze the association between screen time and incidence of self-injury. Results: Totally 5.6% students reported screen time over 2 hours per day, boy, rural students, students with low health literacy, ever drinking had a higher rate of screen overuse(χ 2=12.35, 6.94, 6.86, 16.86, P<0.05). The prevalence of screen overuse varied significantly by amount of pocket money(P<0.01). The prevalence of self-injury was 11.3%, students from western areas, boy, grade three, from rural area, adult relatives as guardians, low health literacy, smoking, drinking and screen time over 2 hours per day had a higher rate of self-injury behavior(χ 2=27.31, 11.49, 23.91, 22.12, 15.11, 55.16，19.03, 25.16, 19.35, P<0.05). Compared with the students with screen time less than 2 hours per day, multiple Logistic regression analyses showed that, the OR(95%CI) values of self-injury was 2.62(1.31-5.23) among students with screen time less than 2 hours per day. Conclusion The risk of self-injury behavior is related to screen time in primary school students, specific health education should be conducted to reduce screen time.

Objective: To investigate the association of health literacy and incidence of self-injury, intentional injury in primary and middle school students in China, to provide guidance for prevention on self-injury and intentional injury in adolescence. Methods: From June to November in 2017, a total of 2 173 primary and middle school students were selected by stratified cluster sampling method from Zhejiang, Guangdong, Jiangxi, Sichuan and Guizhou province in China, The association between health literacy with incidence of self-injury, intentional injury was analyzed. Results: The score of health literacy among 2 173 students was(13.13±2.27), with primary school students (12.79±2.55) lower than middle school students (13.49±1.88) (t=-7.29，P<0.05), the prevalence of self-injuries was 11.1%, primary school students was 11.3% which was similar with that of middle school students was 11.0% (χ2=0.06，P>0.05), the prevalence of intentional injury was 17.8%, the primary school students was 22.4% which was significantly higher than that of middle school students (13.2%) (χ2=31.31，P<0.05). Compared with the students with high health literacy, multiple Logistic regression analyses showed that, the OR(95%CI) values of self-injury, intentional injury were 2.38(1.78-3.20) and 1.45(1.11-1.88). Conclusion The risk of self-injuries and intentional injury of primary and middle school students was related to health literacy, the health education should be conducted to improve their health literacy.

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors of digestive tract, and surgical excision is the only way to extend the lifetime of patients with gastric cancer. Malnutrition is a common complication after such surgery, which affects patients' rehabilitation greatly. Nutritional support is, therefore, crucial to patients with gastric cancer after surgery. Early oral feeding, as the most preferred way of nutritional support after surgery, can not only improve patients' nutritional state, but also keep intestinal mucosa intact and accelerate the recovery of their gastrointestinal function. Hence, this paper summarizes the characteristics and demands of nutrient metabolism, the time, type and feasibility of early oral feeding, the effect on gastrointestinal function as well as the effect on postoperative complications in patients with gastric cancer after surgical excision.

Objective: To explore the association of health literacy with smoking attempt behavior among middle school students in China，and to provide ideas for health education for middle school students. Methods: Using stratified cluster sampling method, 1 066 students were selected from Zhejiang, Guangdong, Jiangxi, Sichuan and Guizhou provinces in China during June to November 2017, a questionnaire survey was conducted to collect health literacy and smoking attempt behavior. Results: The score of health literacy among middle school students was (13.49±1.87). Students who lived in eastern and rural areas, girls, guardians who were jointly supervised by their parents and grandparents, the only child, non smokers, and small amount of weekly pocket money had higher scores in health literacy（ t/F =9.81,3.10,11.12,2.65,3.50,4.47,2.64， P ＜0.05）. The prevalence of smoking attempt behavior was 5.5%. Multiple Logistic regression analyses showed that central and western China, drinking and low healthy literacy were positively correlated with smoking attempt behavior ( OR =2.75, 3.54, 21.62, 2.50, P <0.05). Conclusion Low healthy literacy can be used as a predictor of smoking attempt among middle school students, the health education should be conducted to control the smoking attempt behavior.

Objective To explore the clinical value of micro ribonucleic acid(miR)-27a and miR-1299 in predicting the long-term prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer.Methods A total of 89 patients with esophageal cancer in the hospital were enrolled between June 2020 and June 2022,and all underwent Minimally invasive thoracic and laparoscopic resection of esophageal cancer.The expression levels of miR-27a and miR-1299 were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR)before surgery,and level of serum ferritin(SF)was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.The relationship between miR-27a,miR-1299,SF and clinicopathology in patients with esophageal cancer was analyzed.All were followed up till February 2023 after surgery,and survival of patients was record.The relationship between miR-27a,miR-1299,SF and prognosis was analyzed.The risk factors of long-term prognosis in patients with esophageal cancer were analyzed by multivariate Cox regression model.The relationship between miR-27a,miR-1299 and serum SF was analyzed by Pearson.Results There were significant differences in miR-27a,miR-1299 and serum SF among patients with different tumor staging,lymph node metastasis and differentiation degree(P＜0.05).The results of survival analysis showed that overall survival rates in high-expression miR-27a and SF groups were lower than those in low-expression miR-27a and SF groups(P＜0.05),while which was higher in high-expression miR-1299 group than low-expression miR-1299 group(P＜0.05).Cox regression analysis showed that miR-27a ≥2.54,miR-1299＜4.18 and serum SF ≥223.78 μg/L(P＜0.05)were independent risk factors of postoperative long-term prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer.Pearson correlation analysis showed that level of serum SF was positively correlated with relative expression level of miR-27a(P＜0.05,r=0.612),while negatively correlated with relative expression level of miR-1299(P＜0.05,r=-0.517).Conclusion The miR-27a,miR-1299 and serum SF are related to tumor staging,lymph node metastasis and differentiation degree in patients with esophageal cancer,which can be applied to evaluate postoperative long-term prognosis.

Objective: To explore the association between incidence of injuries and health related behavior among middle school students in China, to provide evidence for injury prevention. Methods: A questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 067 students who were selected from Zhejiang, Guangdong, Jiangxi, Sichuan and Guizhou provinces by using stratified random cluster sampling method. Chi square test and multiple Logistic regression analyses were used to analyze incidence of injuries and health related behavior. Results: The prevalence of self injury among middle school students in five provinces was 11.0%, the prevalence of intentional injury was 13.2%. Multiple Logistic regression analyses showed that attempting smoking, not eating breakfast every day, having a low mood more than 2 weeks in the past 6 months were positively correlated with self injury ( OR=3.02, 2.04, 4.30, P ＜0.01) after adjusting for region, and the smoking attempt behavior was positively correlated with intentional injury ( OR=2.03, P ＜0.05) after adjusting for region, urban and rural, residence condition, weekly allowance condition. Conclusion Smoking attempt behavior could be viewed as a shared predictor for both self injury and intentional injury behavior among middle school students, smoking control intervention should be carried out actively among students.

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics,imaging characteristics,treatment and progno-sis of unilateral pulmonary vein atresia (UPVA)in children and to improve the clinician′ s understanding of this disease. Methods The clinical data of 4 cases of UPVA from January 2014 to December 2016 in Department of Cardiology,Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center were retrospectively analyzed,and 50 cases from reviews of PubMed,OVID and Elsevier in the international medical literature database and 4 cases in Wanfang database for the domestic report were reviewed. The clinical characteristics,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of total of 58 cases were analyzed. Results Four patients,with an average age of 1. 8 years (1. 5 - 2. 7 years),showing congenital UPVA in 3 patients and secondary UPVA in 1 patient. There was 1 case of left upper pulmonary vein atresia,2 cases of left pulmo-nary vein atresia and 1 case of right pulmonary vein atresia. Three cases showed recurrent hemoptysis and recurrent cough occurred in 1 case. Three cases were complicated with congenital heart disease. There was one case underwent bronchial artery embolization,1 case received pulmonary vein left atrium connection,and 2 cases received conservative treatment. All patients had been followed up for 1 - 3 years so far. The patient receiving pulmonary vein left atrium had been completely cured,and the patient receiving bronchial artery embolization showed no occurrence of hemoptysis but still showed recurrent cough hemoptysis. The patient with secondary UPVA had no obvious clinical symptoms,the other 1 case who rejected operation and received conservative treatment still had recurrent pulmonary infection,intermittent hemoptysis. The average age of 54 cases(40 cases with age ≤18 years old)from the literature reports was 13. 76 years (8 days - 43 years)in which 52 cases were diagnosed as congenital UPVA,while 2 cases were secondary UPVA. Twenty - seven cases were right pulmonary vein atresia,22 cases were left pulmonary vein atresia,and 5 cases were other types. There were 94. 4％(51 / 54 cases)of the patients having recurrent cough,pulmonary infection,92. 6％(50 /54 cases)of the patients with exertional dyspnea and polypnea,68. 5％(37 / 54 cases)of the patients with hemoptysis and hematemesis. There were 50. 0％(27 / 54 cases)of UPVA patients who were complicated with heart malformation. Different degrees of pulmonary hypertension were observed in 75. 9％(41 / 54 cases)of children,and 35. 2％(19 / 54 cases)of patients had pulmonary lymphatic dilatation. Pulmonary resection was performed in 25 cases,pulmonary vein left atrium connection was performed in 11 cases,bronchial artery embolization was performed in 7 cases,and conserva-tive treatment was performed in 11 cases. After operation,most of the patients had good prognosis without obvious clini-cal symptoms or mild symptoms. Conclusions In clinical practice,if unexplained hemoptysis,recurrent lower respira-tory tract infection,pulmonary consolidation,pulmonary dysplasia or pulmonary hypertension present,the possibility of UPVA should be considered. Early diagnosis and early bronchial artery embolization,reconstruction of the pulmonary vein and atrial connection and repair of the defect of heart,can improve the symptoms or cure the children and reduce the morta-lity significantly.

Objective To investigate the application value of transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB) in the diagnosis and treatment of complicated and severe liver diseases. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 31 patients who underwent TJLB in The Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital, including indication for puncture, success rate, and final diagnosis. Results Among the 31 patients, there were 15 male patients and 16 female patients. Percutaneous liver biopsy was unsuitable for 8 patients with liver failure and disturbances of blood coagulation, 13 with liver cirrhosis and ascites, and 10 with liver cirrhosis and thrombocytopenia (< 50×10 9 /L), which were the indications for TJLB. The success rate of TJLB puncture was 100%, with 2-4 passes for puncture. No serious adverse event was observed. Of all 31 patients, 26 (83.87%) had a definite diagnosis at discharge, among whom there were 5 patients with idiopathic portal hypertension, 9 patients with drug-induced liver failure or liver cirrhosis, 5 patients with autoimmune liver disease, and 7 patients with liver cirrhosis or liver failure due to other causes, and 5 patients had unknown etiology. In addition, 3 patients underwent biopsy to confirm the diagnosis and decision of whether liver transplantation should be performed. Conclusion TJLB plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of complicated and severe liver diseases and still has certain limitations, and therefore, suitable patients should be selected in clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the safety and therapeutic effect of split liver transplantation (SLT) in clinical application.Methods:This is a retrospective case-series study. The clinical data of 203 consecutive SLT, 79 living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) and 1 298 whole liver transplantation (WLT) performed at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from July 2014 to July 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Two hundred and three SLT liver grafts were obtained from 109 donors. One hundred and twenty-seven grafts were generated by in vitro splitting and 76 grafts were generated by in vivo splitting. There were 90 adult recipients and 113 pediatric recipients. According to time, SLT patients were divided into two groups: the early SLT group (40 cases, from July 2014 to December 2017) and the mature SLT technology group (163 cases, from January 2018 to July 2023). The survival of each group was analyzed and the main factors affecting the survival rate of SLT were analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank test were used for survival analysis.Results:The cumulative survival rates at 1-, 3-, and 5-year were 74.58%, 71.47%, and 71.47% in the early SLT group, and 88.03%, 87.23%, and 87.23% in the mature SLT group, respectively. Survival rates in the mature SLT group were significantly higher than those in the early SLT group ( χ2=5.560, P=0.018). The cumulative survival rates at 1-, 3- and 5-year were 93.41%, 93.41%, 89.95% in the LDLT group and 87.38%, 81.98%, 77.04% in the WLT group, respectively. There was no significant difference among the mature SLT group, the LDLT group and the WLT group ( χ2=4.016, P=0.134). Abdominal hemorrhage, infection, primary liver graft nonfunction,and portal vein thrombosis were the main causes of early postoperative death. Conclusion:SLT can achieve results comparable to those of WLT and LDLT in mature technology liver transplant centers, but it needs to go through a certain time learning curve.
