Objective To investigate dynamic changes of serum Tau proteins and their correlation with cognitive dysfunction in patients with acute traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods A total of 95 patients with acute TBI were retrospectively studied by case-control study.There were 61 males and 34 females,with age of 16-65 years [(40.7 ± 13.6)years].The Glasgow coma scale (GCS) was 3-8 points in 9 patients,9-12 points in 11,and 13-15 points in 75.A total of 30 healthy physical examinees were recruited as control group.The levels of Tau proteins were measured at days 1,3,5,7 and 14 after TBI.The cognitive dysfunction was evaluated by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score at 6 months after injury.The correlation between Tau protein levels at different time points and MoCA was determined.Results The serum Tau proteins of TBI group was significantly higher than that of control group at all time points (P < 0.05).In TBI group,39 (41%) out of 95 patients developed cognitive dysfunction assessed by MoCA scale.The main manifestations of cognitive dysfunction were the defects in visual spatial and acting function,delayed memory,language,abstract,attention and calculation,with statistical significance compared with control group (allP < 0.05).The serum Tau proteins of patients with cognitive dysfunction were significantly higher than those without cognitive dysfunction at all time points after TBI (P < 0.05).Tau proteins at days 1,3,5 after TBI was significantly correlated with cognitive dysfunction at 6 months after TBI (P < 0.05).Conclusions The levels of serum Tau proteins show a significant increase after TBI,the early changes of which are statistically related to cognitive dysfunction.The early changes of serum Tau protein after TBI can be used as a reliable biomarker for early prediction of cognitive function prognosis.

Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic non-blocking partial nephrectomy assisted by high power lateral green laser in the treatment of T 1a renal tumor. Methods:The clinical data of 10 patients with T1a stage renal tumor from February 2021 to April 2021 in department of urology, Gongli hospital affiliated to Naval Military Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. There were 7 males and 3 females, aged 47.0-74.0 years, with average of(58.8±9.7)years old. The diameter of the tumor ranged from 2.0 cm to 3.8 cm, with an average of (3.1±0.6)cm. There were 6 cases on the left side and 4 cases on the right side, locate on lumbar side in 9 cases and ventral sied in 1 case. The R. E.N.A.L score was 4.0-6.0, with an average of (5.0±0.8). The preoperative creatinine was 66.9-90.1μmol/L, with an average of (75.1±9.0)μmol/L, preoperative GFR of 44. 6- 67. 3 ml /min, with an average of(56.7±7.7)ml/min, preoperative hemoglobin level of 119.0-156.0g/L, with an average of (135.8±11.4)g/L. All patients underwent laparoscopic non-blocking partial nephrectomy assisted by 180w lateral green laser, free the surrounding area of the tumor fully and completely expose the renal tumor. The laser fiber was placed through the green laser hand piece, and the fiber was connected with normal saline to wash the strip. The initial green laser vaporization power was set at 80W, and the hemostasis power at 35W.About 3mm away from the edge of the tumor, and one optical fiber away from the renal parenchyma, the renal parenchyma was cut with 80W power. In order to reduce the interference by smoke, high-pressure flushing was used through the optical fiber while vaporizing, and an attractor was used to push and peel the tumor. In case of bleeding during operation, hemostatic power can be used to close the bleeding point and gradually advance until the tumor was completely removed. The wounds of renal inner medulla and renal outer cortex were continuously sutured in 1-3 layers with barbed suture. It involved 9 cases via retroperitoneal approach and 1 case via abdominal approach. The operation time, postoperative hemoglobin decrease, extraction time of negative pressure drainage, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative pathology and postoperative complications were recorded, and the serum creatinine level and GFR level of the affected side were followed up 1 month after operation.Results:All the operations were successfully completed, and there was no conversion to open surgery or radical nephrectomy. One case changed to scissors fast resection and sutured hemostasis due to severe intraoperative bleeding. The operation time was 90.0-120.0 min, with the average of (104.5±9.0)min. The postoperative hemoglobin level was 96.0-132.0g/L, with an average of (115.2±11.8)g/L, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The postoperative hemoglobin decreased from 12.0g/L to 25.0g/L, with an average of (20.6±4.6)g/L. The time of vacuum drainage was 5.0-7.0 days, with an average of (5.7±0.7)d. Postoperative hospital stay was 6.0-8.0 days, with an average of (6.7±0.7)d. No bleeding, urinary leakage and other complications occurred in all patients. There were 7 cases of clear cell carcinoma, 2 cases of papillary renal cell carcinoma and 1 case of angiomyolipoma. All margins were negative. One month after operation, creatinine ranged from 66.0 to 90.4μmol/L, with an average of (76.8±8.3)μmol/L, which was not significantly different compared with that before operation ( P>0.05). One month after operation, GFR was 45.1-60.8 ml/min, and with an average of (55.5±4.7)ml/min, and there was no significant difference compared with preoperative data( P>0.05). Conclusions:For T 1aN 0M 0 stage and exophytic renal tumors, laparoscopic non-blocking partial nephrectomy assisted by lateral green laser is safe and effective.

ObjectiveTo assess the risk of vector-born infectious diseases by monitoring the major vectors in the relevant venues of the 19th Hangzhou Asian Games in Fuyang competition area, so as to provide references for the prevention and control of vector in similar large-scale events or activities in the future. MethodsFrom April to October 2023, monitoring and evaluation of rodent, mosquito, fly and cockroach density levels were carried out in various venues and reception hotels in Fuyang competition area (venues and hotels were the 1st circle area, and various environments and places in the surrounding 500 meters were the 2nd circle area). SPSS 25.0 software was used to analyze the data, and chi-square test or Fisher’s precision probability test were used to calculate the qualified rate and positive rate. Moreover, the path index, landing index and Bretrau index were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis H test. ResultsThe control effect of vector density in the 1st circle was significantly better than that in the 2nd circle. Since September, the monitoring indices of the venues in the two circles had reached the national A-level and B-level standard, respectively. The positive rate of rodent traces generally showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, and the peak was shown to occur in July and August, with the highest rate of 5.38%. The qualified rate of rodent prevention facilities continued to rise, and facilities in the 1st and 2nd circles had reached national A-level and B-level standard respectively in late August. The landing index and path index of mosquitoes basically showed a changing trend from high to low, with the highest landing index of 4.56 individuals·person-time-1 and the highest path index of 2.44 places·km-1.The adult fly infestation rate remained at a low level, with the highest rate of 4.17%, and the minimum qualified rate of fly prevention facilities was 28.57%, which reached the national standard after July. The positive detection rates of adult flies and cockroach traces showed no significant pattern, with the highest rate of 7.00% and 8.33%, respectively. The detection rate of live ootheca was always at a low level. ConclusionThe relevant venues in the Fuyang competition area of the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou meet national standards in terms of vector control indicators such as rodents, mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches and other vectors. By means of environmental improvement, facilities for preventing rodents and flies, and deepening biological and chemical prevention and control methods, it can be ensured that there will be no vector-borne diseases and infestation incidents during the event.
