OBJECTIVE:To analyze the characteristics and regularity of cross allergic reaction between carbopenems and penicillin.METHODS:2 cases about cross allergic reaction between ertapenem and penicillin were reported,716 cases of cross allergic reaction between carbopenems and penicillin in 9 literatures were collected from databases from Jan.1986 to Jan.2010 and analyzed statistically.RESULTS:The incidence of allergic reactions caused by carbopenems in patients with allergic history were higher than that in patients without allergic history.Allergic reaction mostly occurred within 15 min~49 d.Sound therapeutic efficacy can be achieved because of immediate withdrawal of drug and anti-allergy treatment,patients were with good prognosis.CONCLUSION:Great importance should be attached to monitoring of cross allergic reaction between carbopenems and penicillin and rational use of drugs.

Objective To investigate the reliability and safety of the technique of percutaneous left ventricular transapical access guided by cardiac three dimensional CT angiography (3D-CTA) combined with echocardiography applied in structural heart defects. Methods The clinical data of 9 patients (7 males and 2 females with a median age of 50 years ranging from 43 to 64 years) with paravalvular leaks closed by percutaneous left ventricular transapical access in West China Hospital, from April 2015 to August 2018, were retrospectively analyzed. We applied preoperative cardiac 3D-CTA to define the puncture site and trace, which was established by combining with real-time guidance of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE/3D-TEE), and an occluder was deployed at the apical access point for hemostasis with real-time guidance of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). Results The puncture needles were successfully introduced into the left ventricular cavity at one time in all patients without injury of lung tissue, coronary artery or papillary muscle. There was no occluder displacement or apex bleeding. One patient developed pleural effusion caused by intercostal artery injury. Conclusion That cardiac 3D-CTA is used to define puncture sites and trace with advantages of simplicity and repeatability. A safe access and secure exit of left ventricle can be achieved by combining with real-time guidance of echocardiography. There are acceptable technology-related complications.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics of persistent HBeAg positivity in patients with chronic hepatitis B treated with nucleos(t)ide analogues.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed according to different data types. An independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test, or Fisher's exact probability method were used. Chronic hepatitis B patients followed up for four years were collected from the follow-up case database of the Department of Infectious Diseases of Zhongshan Third Hospital from January 2009 to December 2018 and were divided into two groups, A and B, with 87 and 145 cases respectively, according to the duration of HBeAg-negativity≤ 3 and persistent positivity >3 years. Statistical analysis was conducted on the age, gender, family history, baseline, follow-up visit duration, liver function, and other data among the two patient groups.Results:There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, family history of liver cirrhosis, family history of liver cancer, liver cirrhosis condition before treatment, fatty liver disease combined condition before treatment, baseline HBsAg, anti-HBc, alanine aminotransferase, albumin, or total bilirubin between the two groups of patients ( P ?>?0.05). HBV DNA and HBeAg were significantly higher in group B than those in group A at baseline, with P≤0.001. Aspartate aminotransferase and γ-glutamyl transferase were significantly higher in group A than those in group B at baseline. The proportion of family history of hepatitis B was significantly higher in group B (69.0%) than that in group A (50.6%) among the two groups of patients, and the difference was statistically significant ( P ?=?0.005). The proportion of mothers with hepatitis B was significantly higher in group B (25.5%) than in group A (11.5%), P ?=?0.010. During the treatment process, the HBV DNA quantification was significantly higher in group B than that in group A at 0.5 and 1 years (P≤0.002). The proportion of HBV DNA <100IU/ml was also significantly different at six months and one year (χ 2=30.327, P ?0.001 and χ 2=11.779, P ?=?0.001). The HBsAg level was higher in group B than that of group A in the second and fourth years, P ?0.05. During the entire treatment process, the HBeAg level was significantly higher in group B than that in group A ( P ?0.001). A total of seven cases developed liver cirrhosis or cancer during follow-up, including three cases in group A and four cases in group B ( P ?>?0.05). Conclusion:HBeAg-positive patients with chronic hepatitis B have persistent HBeAg positivity when treated with long-term nucleos(t)ide analogues. Accordingly, a greater proportion of this kind of patient family and mothers have a remarkable history of hepatitis B and a reduced HBV DNA relapse rate in the early stages (within a year or less).

Objective To explore the mechanism of volume-related mitral regurgitation (MR) from the anatomy of mitral valve. Methods A total of 32 patients with ventricular septal defect (VSD) combined MR meeting inclusion criteria in West China Hospital from September 2018 to November 2019 were enrolled in this study. The direction relative to the cardiac axis: the deviation of the MR bundle along the left atrial wall was eccentric, otherwises it was central. There were 23 patients of VSD and eccentric MR (EMR, a VSD-EMR group), including 10 males and 13 females aged 21 (10, 56) months, and 9 patients of VSD and central MR (CMR, a VSD-CMR group), including 4 males and 5 females aged 26 (12, 87) months. Besides, 9 healthy children were enrolled in a control group, including 4 males and 5 females aged 49 (15, 72) months. All patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) examination at 2 weeks before surgery and 6 months after surgery, respectively, The MR degree, end-diastolic volume (EDV), end-systolic volume (ESV), stroke volume (SV), ejection fraction (EF), antero-posterior diameter (AP), annulus circumference (AC), commissural diameter (CD) were assessed. Results Before operation, EDV, ESV, SV, AP, AC and CD in the VSD-EMR and VSD-CMR groups were significantly larger or longer than those in the control group (P<0.05); after operation, EDV, ESV, SV, AP and CD decreased compared with those before operation (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference compared with the control group (P>0.05). Compared with the control group, AC was slightly decreased (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in EF between and within groups before and after operation (P>0.05). The improvement rate of MR was 78.9%(15/19) in the VSD-EMR group and 100.0% (9/9) in the VSD-CMR group. Conclusion After unloading of volume, the valve structure is back to normal except AC. The improvement rate of MR in the VSD-EMR group is lower than that in the VSD-CMR group, which may indicate that the mechanism of VSD-EMR is more complicated.

【Objective】 To investigate the risk factors and predictive effectiveness of prostate imaging reporting and data system (PI-RADS) score for patients with clinically significant prostate cancer (CsPCa) whose PI-RADS score was 3, so as to provide evidence for the diagnosis and treatment. 【Methods】 The clinical and multi-parameter magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) data of 153 CsPCa patients treated during Jan.2017 and Dec.2021 whose PI-RADS score was 3 were retrospectively analyzed. With PI-RADS score of 3 as the independent risk factor for CsPCa, the other relevant independent risk factors in predicting CsPCa were evaluated. 【Results】 Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that prostate-specific antigen (PSA) density and apparent dispersion coefficient (ADC) were independent risk factors for the diagnosis of CsPCa (P<0.05). Analysis of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve showed that combined PSA density and ADC were more effective than PSA density and ADC alone (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The combination of PSA density and ADC can guide clinicians to identify high-risk CsPCa patients from patients with PI-RADS score of 3 points.
