Objective To investigate the etiology, diagnosis and treatment of pneumocystis cari-nii pneumonia (PCP) at early stage after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Method The clinical data of 276 patients undergoing OLT were retrospectively analyzed and those of 6 cases complicated with PCP were summarized from January 2005 to December 2005. Results The morbidity of PCP in our group was 2.17% and occurred in early stage after OLT. The average time on set was (11.17?2.50) days and uneasily controlled hypoxemia was the main manifestation. The diagnosis of PCP was established by clinical symptoms, chest X-ray, chest CT, pneumocystis carinii PCR detection and visualization of PC encysts from sputum samples under a microscope. SMZco was the initial choice of treatment combined with immunosuppressive regimen regulation. Five cases were cured and 1 case died from septic shock. Conclusion PCP can occur among OLT patients in the early stage, and aggressive early diagnosis and treatment were critical to improve the prognosis.

Objective:
To investigate the characteristics of breakthrough cases of varicella in Haishu District, Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province from 2017 to 2022, so as to provide the evidence for varicella prevention and control.
Methods:
Information on reported cases of varicella and vaccination in Haishu District from 2017 to 2022 were collected through the China Infectious Disease Reporting Management Information System and the Immunization Program Information Management System of Zhejiang Province. The breakthrough cases who had received 1 or 2 doses of varicella vaccine 42 days before the onset of disease were selected. The distribution of sex, age, region and the interval between onset and last immunization were descriptively analyzed.
Results:
A total of 1 563 varicella cases were reported from 2017 to 2022. There were 928 breakthrough cases (59.37%), of which 660 cases with 1-dose immunization history (42.23%) and 268 cases with 2-dose immunization history (17.15%). The proportion of 1-dose breakthrough cases in total annual cases showed a decreasing trend (P<0.05) from 2017 to 2022, while there was no significant tendency on the proportion of cases with 2-dose immunization history (P>0.05). There were 392 males (59.39%) and 268 females (40.61%) with 1-dose immunization history. There were 150 males (55.97%) and 118 females (44.03%) with 2-dose immunization history. Breakthrough cases with 1- and 2- dose immunization history had an median age of 13.00 (interquartile range, 4.00) and 9.00 (4.00) years, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The regional distribution of the breakthrough cases with 1- and 2- dose immunization history was mainly in the rural-urban fringe, with 319 cases (48.33%) and 137 cases (51.12%), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The median interval between onset and last immunization was 12.00 (interquartile range, 3.00) and 4.00 (3.00) years, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).
Conclusions
The breakthrough cases of varicella in Haishu District from 2017 to 2022 were mainly cases with 1-dose immunization history, males, and residents in rural-urban fringe. The age was older and the interval between onset and the last immunization was longer in cases with 1-dose immunization history than in cases with 2-dose immunization history.

Objective:To study the use of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) guided transnasal ileus tube placement in management of abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) after liver transplantation.Methods:From January 2015 to December 2019, a total of 30 patients who developed ACS after liver transplantation who were admitted to the Transplantation Intensive Care Unit of Tianjin First Central Hospital were retrospectively studied. According to the way of decompression, these patients were divided into the study group and the control group. Patients in the control group were treated with conventional abdominal decompression, while patients in the study group were treated with DSA guided transnasal ileus tube placement based on management principles developed in conventional abdominal decompression. Changes in intra-abdominal pressure, treatment efficacy rates and liver functions were monitored in the two groups up to 7 days after abdominal decompression.Results:There were 23 males and 7 females, aged (53.4±11.6) years. After treatment, the IAP, portal venous blood flow velocity, bile drainage volume, ALT and AST in the study group were significantly better when compared with the findings before treatment: [IAP: (7.13±3.87) vs (22.73±2.09) mmHg, portal vein blood flow velocity: (34.76±10.31) vs (21.45±6.47) cm/s, bile drainage volume: (198.43±19.94) vs (80.72±9.52) ml/d, ALT: (158.92±67.56) vs (278.73±99.17) U/L, AST: (79.36±15.63) vs (196.71±89.05) U/L], ( P<0.05). After treatment, when compared with the control group, the IAP, portal vein blood flow velocity, bile drainage and TBil in the study group were significantly better [IAP: (7.13±3.87) vs (13.47±6.19) mmHg, portal vein blood flow velocity: (34.76±10.31) vs (24.98±8.54) cm/s, bile drainage: (198.43±19.94) vs (108.73±21.30) ml/d, TBil: (258.85±91.95) vs (343.69±89.45) μmol/L], ( P<0.05). In the control group, the IAP significantly decreased on the fourth day after treatment, ( P<0.05); compared with the significant difference in the study group on the second day after treatment ( P<0.05). After 7 days of treatment, the efficacy rate of the control group was 46.7% (7/15), compared to 86.7% (13/15) in the study group. The difference between the two groups was significant (χ 2=5.400, P<0.05). Conclusion:DSA guided transnasal ileus tube placement for treatment of abdominal compartment syndrome after liver transplantation resulted in a better treatment efficacy rate than conventional treatment.
