OBJECTIVETo analyze the clinical characteristics and diagnosis of three cases with infant botulism.
METHODClinical data of three clinically diagnosed cases with infant botulism in May 2015 in Peking University First Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Literature search at databases of PubMed, Wanfang, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and VIP with the key words"infant AND botulism". The date of literature retrieval was from the database founding to November 2015. The characteristics of infant botulism were summarized through review of literature.
RESULTThree patients were infants of 4-8 months of age, and all had acute onsets of anorexia and poor response. All of them had normal psychomotor development previously, and without clear history of exposure to poisons. The main findings on physical examination were reduced muscle strength and hypotonia, dullness or disappeared pupillary light reflex, reduced facial expression, weak crying and dysphagia. Unexpectedly their states of consciousness were relatively normal. Finally, through identification and PCR genotyping of bacteria in stool, 2 cases were confirmed as Clostridium (C.) botulinum type B infection. Totally 446 reports were retrieved from foreign language literature and 52 reports from Chinese literature. More than 3,000 cases of infant botulism cases were reported in the world. Rare cases were reported in China and only 1 case was reported in 2000.
CONCLUSIONMost cases of infant botulism had no clear exposure history. The main clinical manifestations are hypotonia, cranial nerve paralysis, flaccid paralysis, but different patients may have different presentations. Detection of C. Botulinum and its toxin in stool can help to confirm the diagnosis. Infant botulism is relatively rare in China, which may be related to the insufficient understanding and inspection level of the disease. It might be underestimated in China.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and specific manifestations of enduring psychological distress in patients with breast cancer after operation. Methods Totally 263 patients of the newly diagnosed breast cancer treated with the operation from August 2014 to August 2015 were collected by convenience sampling. Distress Thermometer (DT) and Problem List recommended by national Comprehensive Cancer Network was used to assess the persistent psychological distresses in the 6th, 15th, 20th, 25th, 30th months after the disease diagnosis,while a self-designed questionnaire was for the demographic data. Results The results of the DT screening showed that 16%(42/263) patients had persistent psychological problems;the incidences of five stages of significant psychological distress (DT≥4) was 43%(113/263), 34%(89/263), 31%(81/263), 28% (73/263) and 25% (65/263), respectively. The main manifestations of persistent psychological distress were:fatigue 59 cases (22.4%) , sleep disorders 51 cases (19.4%), nervous 48 cases (18.2%), anxiety 24 cases (9.1%), fear of appearance 23 cases (8.7%) and the difference in persistent psychological distress scores between different demographic characteristics (age, educational level, marital status, economic situation, operation method, disease stage) were statistically significant (t=-2.295-2.966, P<0.05). Conclusion The incidences of persistent psychological distress in patients with breast cancer is higher and the manifestation is different,which should be paid attention to by medical workers.

Objective To recognize the risk factors of unplanned re-interventions within 30 days after pediatric cardiac surgery and evaluate the outcome of re-interventions. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 202 children in Fuwai Hospital between January 1, 2015 and August 31, 2017. There were 115 males and 87 females at average age of 32.4 months with range of 3 days to 14 years. Results There were 202 children who underwent unplanned re-intervention during 30 days post-operation, including 54 re-adjustments of pulmonary blood flow, 34 re-corrections for residual cardiac abnormalities, 28 cardiopulmonary resuscitations, 38 for coagulation problems, 19 pericardial drainages, 11 palliative re-operations to deliver heart load and 6 diaphragmatic folds and 12 others. The mortality rate among children who underwent unplanned re-inventions after cardiac surgery was 10.9% (22/202). It was much higher than those free from re-interventions (0.7%). Time of mechanical ventilation was 284.3 (11–2 339) h, and mean ICU stay was 17.7 (1–154) d, significantly longer than those free from re-interventions at the same period. Conclusion Unplanned re-interventions after pediatric cardiac surgery is associated with higher mortality rate and longer recovery time. Early identifying risk factors and re-intervention can reduce the complications and improve the prognosis.
