Objective To evaluate left ventricular(LV)myocardial contraction patterns and function when pacing in different right ventricular(RV)sites and discuss echocardiogarphic method to evaluate physiologcal pacing mode.Methods This study included 26 patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia without organic heart disease.Four pacing modes including right atrium pacing(AAI),RV apex pacing(VVI-RVA),RV septal pacing(VVI-IVS)and RV outflow tract pacing(VVI-RVOT)were performed on the patients in a random order after succussful radiofrequency ablation.The parameters measured in each pacing mode included(1)LV systolic function parameters:LV twist angle(Twist),aortic systolic velocity-time integral(VTIAo)and LV global strain(Gε)；(2)LV contracting pattern:segmental peak systolic strain(Sε),the time to peak value(TPε),and the distribution of segmental Sε,TPε in each layer or wall.The relationship between Sε,TPε of each wall was analyzed.[Results]Pacing from RV sites showed lower Twist,VTIAO and Gε than AAI mode.Gε demonstrated significant difference in three RV sites pacing mode(VVI-RVOT＞VVI-IVS＞VVI-RVA,P＜0.05).Compared with the AAI mode,the distribution of segmental Sε,TPε in the each layer or wall alerted significantly in three RV sites pacing mode,especially in VV1-RVA.The distribution pattern was similar in VVI-RVOT and VVI-IVS.Furthermore,the wall Sε collated negtively with wall TPε(r =-0.51,P＜0.001).[Conclusions]Compared with AAI mode,RV pacing,especially the VVI-RVA induced the alternation of LV contraction patterns and reduction of systolic function.Longitudinal strain parameters can be used to assess the myocardial contraction patterns and function in different pacing mode.

Objective:To explore the risk factors for the occurrence of preeclampsia (PE) and the predictive value of serum vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 (VEGFR-1) and placental growth factor (PLGF) for PE.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to select 148 pregnant women who underwent prenatal examinations at the First People′s Hospital of Chenzhou from January 2020 to January 2022 and were ultimately diagnosed with PE as the PE group, and 148 healthy pregnant women who underwent prenatal examinations during the same period as the PE group were selected as the control group. The levels of VEGFR-1, PLGF, and VEGFR-1/PLGF were compared between two groups of pregnant women. Logistic regression analysis was performed on the risk factors for PE, and the correlation between VEGFR-1, PLGF, VEGFR-1/PLGF and risk factors was analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of VEGFR-1, PLGF, and VEGFR-1/PLGF for PE and obtain cutoff values. The survival curve of pregnant women with PE was plotted based on the cutoff values.Results:The levels of VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-1/PLGF in the PE group were higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05), while the levels of PLGF were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that age, body mass index (BMI), pregnancy induced hypertension, pregnancy induced diabetes, family history of hypertension, preeclampsia, VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-1/PLGF were risk factors for PE (all P<0.05), and PLGF was a protective factor for PE ( P<0.05). VEGFR-1, VEGFR-1/PLGF were positively correlated with age, BMI, pregnancy induced hypertension, pregnancy induced diabetes, hypertension family history, and PE (all P<0.001), while PLGF was negatively correlated with age, BMI, pregnancy induced hypertension, pregnancy induced diabetes, hypertension family history, and preeclampsia (all P<0.001). VEGFR-1, PLGF, and VEGFR-1/PLGF had higher predictive value for PE (AUC=0.773, 0.791, 0.825), with cutoff values of 9190.83 ng/L, 508.17 ng/L, and 21.64, respectively. According to the cutoff value, 296 pregnant women were divided into three groups: low, medium, and high risk. The survival analysis results showed that the probabilities of PE occurrence in the three groups were 1.36%, 18.97%, and 66.67%, respectively. Conclusions:VEGFR-1 and PLGF have high predictive value for PE, and clinical monitoring of VEGFR-1/PLGF levels combined with other examination methods can improve the accuracy of PE diagnosis and prediction, and improve pregnancy outcomes.

Hypoxemia is a common complication of pneumonia, asthma, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia in children.Rapid identification of hypoxemia is of great significance for the disposal and management of critical children.Pulse oximetry is recognized by the World Health Organization as the best way to monitor hypoxemia in children, and it can monitor pulse oxygen saturation noninvasively and continuously.Based on the related literature at home and abroad, combined with the clinical needs of pediatrics, the " Expert consensus on clinical application of pulse oximetry in children" is formulated to improve the understanding of pediatricians and nurses on the application in pediatric clinical practice, principle, operation techniques, and limitations of pulse oximetry.

2019 novel coronavirus(2019-nCoV) outbreak is one of the public health emergency of international concern.Since the 2019-nCoV outbreak, China has been adopting strict prevention and control measures, and has achieved remarkable results in the initial stage of prevention and control.However, some imported cases and sporadic regional cases have been found, and even short-term regional epidemics have occurred, indicating that the preventing and control against the epidemic remains grim.With the change of the incidence proportion and the number of cases in children under 18 years old, some new special symptoms and complications have appeared in children patients.In addition, with the occurrence of virus mutation, it has not only attracted attention from all parties, but also proposed a new topic for the prevention and treatment of 2019-nCoV infection in children of China.Based on the second edition, the present consensus further summarizes the clinical characteristics and experience of children′s cases, and puts forward recommendations on the diagnostic criteria, laboratory examination, treatment, prevention and control of children′s cases for providing reference for further guidance of treatment of 2019-nCoV infection in children.

Objective:To explore the effect of closed-loop nursing on self-efficacy and nursing satisfaction in children with nephrotic syndrome (NS) .Methods:From March 2019 to January 2021, convenience sampling was used to select 104 children with NS and their accompanying parents in Henan Provincial People's Hospital as the research object. The children were divided into the control group and the observation group by random number table method, 52 cases in each group. The control group received routine nursing, and the observation group carried out closed-loop nursing on the basis of the control group. The scores of the General Self-efficacy Scale and Satisfaction Scale were compared between the two groups.Results:After three months of intervention, the children's self-efficacy score in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, and the parents' satisfaction with nursing was 94.23% (49/52) , which was higher than 78.85% (41/52) in the control group. The differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The closed-loop nursing can improve the self-efficacy of children with NS and the satisfaction of their parents, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

At present, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2(SARS-CoV-2)infection is still rampant worldwide.As of September 10, 2021, there were about 222 million confirmed cases of corona virus disease 2019(COVID-19)and more than 4.6 million deaths worldwide.With the development of COVID-19 vaccines and the gradual vaccination worldwide, the increasing number of cases in children and unvaccinated young people has drawn attention.According to World Health Organization surveillance data, the proportion of COVID-19 infection cases in children gradually increased, and the proportion of cases in the age groups of under 5 years and 5-14 years increased from 1.0% and 2.5% in January 2020 to 2.0% and 8.7% in July 2021, respectively.At present, billions of adults have been vaccinated with various COVID-19 vaccines worldwide, and their protective effects including reducing infection and transmission, reducing severe disease and hospitalization, and reducing death, as well as high safety have been confirmed.Canada, the United States, Europe and other countries have approved the emergency COVID-19 vaccination in children and adolescents aged 12 to 17 years, and China has also approved the phased vaccination of COVID-19 vaccination in children and adolescents aged 3 to 17 years. For smooth advancement and implementation of COVID-19 vaccination in children, academic institutions, including National Clinical Research Center for Respiratory Diseases, National Center for Children′s Health, and The Society of Pediatrics, Chinese Medical Association organized relevant experts to reach this consensus on COVID-19 vaccination in children.

Monkeypox is a zoonotic disease.Previous studies have shown that children are vulnerable to monkeypox and are also at high risk for severe disease or complications.In order to improve pediatricians′ understanding of monkeypox and achieve early detection, early diagnosis, early treatment and early disposal, the committee composed of more than 40 experts in the related fields of infectious diseases, pediatrics, infection control and public health formulate this expert consensus, on the basis of the latest clinical management and infection prevention and control for monkeypox released by the World Health Organization (WHO), the guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of monkeypox (version 2022) issued by National Health Commission of the People′s Republic of China and other relevant documents.During the development of this consensus, multidisciplinary experts have repeatedly demonstrated the etiology, epidemiology, transmission, clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, treatment, discharge criteria, prevention, case management process and key points of prevention and control about monkeypox.

Since December 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2) infections have raged globally for more than 2 years.China has always adopted scientific and effective prevention and control measures to achieved some success.However, with the continuous variation of SARS-CoV-2 cases and imported cases from abroad, the prevention and control work has become more difficult and complex.With the variation of the mutant strain, the number of cases in children changed, and some new special symptoms and complications were found, which proposed a new topic for the prevention and treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children in China.Based on the third edition, the present consensus according to the characteristics of the new strain, expounded the etiology, pathology, pathogenesis, and according to the clinical characteristics and experience of children′s cases, and puts forward recommendations on the diagnostic criteria, laboratory examination, treatment, prevention and control of children′s cases for providing reference for further guidance of effective prevention and treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children in China.

China has classified the Corona Virus Disease 2019(COVID-19) as a statutory category B infectious disease and managed it according to Category B since January 8, 2023.In view that Omicron variant is currently the main epidemic strain in China, in order to guide the treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2) infection in children with the times, refer to the Diagnosis and Treatment Protocol for Novel Coronavirus Infection (Trial 10 th Edition), Expert Consensus on Diagnosis, Treatment and Prevention of Novel Coronavirus Infection in Children (Fourth Edition) and the Diagnosis and Treatment Strategy for Pediatric Related Viral Infections.The Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis, Treatment and Prevention of Novel Coronavirus Infection in Children (Fifth Edition) has been formulated and updated accordingly on related etiology, epidemiology, pathogenic mechanism, clinical manifestations, auxiliary examination, diagnosis and treatment, and added key points for the treatment of COVID-19 related encephalopathy, fulminating myocarditis and other serious complications for clinical reference.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2(SARS-CoV-2)infection is still worldwide.As a vulnerable group, severe and dead pediatric cases are also reported.Under this severe epidemic situation, children should be well protected.With the widespread vaccination of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in adults, the infection rate have decreased.Therefore, SARS-CoV-2 vaccine inoculation for children groups step by step is of great significance to the protection of children and the prevention and control of corona virus disease 2019(COVID-19) as a whole.But the safety of children vaccinated with SARS-CoV-2 vaccine is a main concern of parents.Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of vaccination and the implementation of vaccination work, National Clinical Research Center for Respiratory Diseases, National Center for Children′s Health and the Society of Pediatrics, Chinese Medical Association organized experts to interpret the main issue of parents about SARS-CoV-2 vaccine for children, in order to answer the doubts of parents.
