OBJECTIVETo investigate the pathogen distribution and drug resistance in coal workers' pneumoconiosis associated with pneumonia and to provide a scientific basis for early guidance for rational clinical application of antibacterial agents.

METHODSSeventy-six patients with coal workers' pneumoconiosis associated with pneumonia who were admitted to our hospital from June 2011 to June 2014 were enrolled as subjects. The sputum specimens were aseptically collected for bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests.

RESULTSIn 245 sputum specimens collected from 76 patients, a total of 218 strains of pathogens, including 163 strains of Gram-negative bacilli (74.77%), 39 strains of Gram-positive cocci (17.89%), and 16 strains of fungi (7.34%) were isolated by bacteriological tests. The main Gram-negative bacilli had high rates of resistance to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, ampicillin, cotrimoxazole, cefotaxime, and aztreonam, and were sensitive to amikacin, imipenem, and meropenem. The main Gram-positive cocci had high rates of resistance to penicillin, erythromycin, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, ampicillin, cefotaxime, and clindamycin, and were sensitive to vancomycin and teicoplanin.

CONCLUSIONThe main pathogens in these patients with coal workers' pneumoconiosis associated with pneumonia are Gram-negative bacilli, which are highly resistant to common clinically used antibacterial agents. The pathogen distribution and drug resistance should be well understood, and the antibacterial agents should be rationally selected according to the results of drug sensitivity tests.

Objective To investigate of the risk factors for the death of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS),so as to set up SFTS critical score and evaluate its role in predicting the prognosis for patients with SFTS.Methods A total of 123 SFTS patients hospitalized in Ji′nan Hospital of Infectious Diseases affiliated to Shandong University from June 2011 to October 2014 were enrolled in this study.The univariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to analysis the risk factor for the death of SFTS.Then the SFTS critical score system was set up accordingly.The prognosis value of SFTS critical score was compared with the rapid emergency medicine score (REMS)and the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ)by using receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC).Results Among all the patients,17 males and 14 females were in death group,and 45 males and 47 females were in survival group.The results of the univariate Logistic regression analyses indicated that the glasgow coma scale (GCS),lactate dehydrogenase,activated partial thromboplastin time,oxygen saturation were risk factors for the death of SFTS,with statistically significant difference (all P <0.05). All of the four parameters of SFTS critical scores in the death group were higher than those in the survival group,with statistically significant difference (all P <0.05 ).The REMS,APACHEⅡ score and SFTS critical score in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group (all P <0.01 ). The area under the curve (AUC)of REMS,APACHE Ⅱ scores and SFTS critical score were 0.734, 0.746 and 0.788,respectively.The Youden index of the SFTS critical scores was the highest among all three scores (P <0.01).If 15 .0 was used as the cut off value of SFTS critical score,the specificity and the sensitivity for predicting the death risk for the hospitalized patient were 74.2% and 76.1 %, respectively.Conclusion SFTS critical score,REMS and APACHEⅡ score can all effectively predict the prognosis for SFTS patients,among which,the SFTS critical score is the most convenient and has the best predictive value.

Pelvic fractures accounted for about 3% of all fracture patients.With the development of the industry, the increase of the mechanical work, car accidents, falls and other accidents occurred frequently, in every 100000 people per year on average, there are 20 to 27 people with pelvic fracture.Among them, the proportion of patients with high energy injury increased significantly, and the teratogenic rate, disability rate and mortality rate remained high.Meanwhile, people's understanding of pelvic fracture and their demands for quality of life are getting higher and higher.Based on the diagnosis and treatment progress of pelvic fracture in recent years, the treatment of emergency treatment, reduction, fixation and sequelae of pelvic fracture were reviewed.

Objective To explore the influence of rs1360780 T risk allele of FK506-binding protein 5 (FKBP5) gene on the brain function under resting-state and its association with clinical symptoms as well as immune function in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD).Methods Totally 147 MDD patients and 61 gender-,age-,and education-matched healthy controls were scanned with 3.0T MRI Scanner and genotyped.The peripheral serum immunoglobulin and complement were measured.The main effect of the disease,the genotype and their interaction effects were analyzed using regional homogeneity (ReHo) by two-way ANOVA.Abnormal brain activity was identified in T risk allele carriers of rs1360780 and non-risk CC individuals in MDD using post hoc analyses.Correlation analyses were performed between ReHo values of significant brain regions and the total score,five-factor scores of Hamilton rating scale for depression (HAMD-17),serum levels of immunoglobulin and plasma complement component in MDD patients.Results (1) The results of 2x 2 ANOVA showed the interaction effects located in the left opercular part of inferior frontal gyrus (MNI:x,y,z =-42,6,9;F=10.83),right opercular part of inferior frontal gyrus (MNI:x,y,z =30,6,33;F=15.05),left medial superior frontal gyrus (MNI:x,y,z=-9,54,0;F=9.17) and left pallidum (MNI:x,y,z =-12,6,-6;F=11.37) (Alphasim corrected,P＜ 0.05).(2) In post-hoc analyses for the main effect of genotype,T+ carriers with MDD showed increased ReHo values in the right opercular part of inferior frontal gyrus (MNI:x,y,z=60,12,6;t=2.88) compared with CC carriers;for the effect of diseaseby-genotype interaction,T+ carriers with MDD showed increased ReHo values in the right opercular part of inferior frontal gyrus (MNI:x,y,z=30,6,33;t=2.96) and decreased ReHo values in the left orbital part of inferior frontal gyrus (MNI:x,y,z =-21,9,-18;t =-3.21) (Alphasim corrected,P＜ 0.05) in contrast to CC carriers.(3)Pearson's correlation showed that the average ReHo values of the right opercular part of inferior frontal gyrus negatively correlated with the content of immunoglobulin G (r=-0.528,P=O.0016,Bonferroni corrected) and positively correlated with anxiety/somatization factor score (r=0.421,P＜0.001,Bonferroni corrected) in T + carrìers with MDD.Conclusion The results of this study suggest that rs1360780 T-risk allele of FKBP5 gene is involved in the changes of local neural activity in the right opercular part of inferior frontal gyrus of depressed patients and could potentially indicate a neuropathological mechanism of anxiety somatic symptoms and immune dysfunction in depression.

Objective Meta-analysis was used to evaluate the effect of the solution-focused brief therapy on im-proving the anxiety and depression status of patients with HIV/AIDS.Methods Computer search of PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,CINAHL,PsycINFO,Chinese Biomedical Literature Database,China Na-tional Knowledge Infrastructure,Wanfang Database,CQVIP were conducted,and the search time frame was from the establishment of databases until April 9,2023.There were 2 investigators who independently screened the literature according to inclusion and exclusion criteria,extracted data and performed quality evaluation,and performed Meta-analysis using RevMan 5.4 software.Results A total of 11 publications were included,including 9 randomized controlled trials and 2 quasi-experimental studies,with a total of 1 219 patients with HIV/AIDS.Meta-analysis re-sults showed that solution-focused brief therapy reduced anxiety scores(SMD=-1.89;95%CI:-2.79～-0.99,P＜0.001),depression scores(SMD=-2.45;95%CI:-3.51～-1.39,P＜0.001).Subgroup analysis showed that improved anxiety(SMD=-4.16;95%CI:-7.97～-0.35,P＜0.001),depression(SMD=-5.69;95%CI:-11.20～-0.19,P＜0.001)in pregnant HIV/AIDS patients was significantly better than that in ordinary patients.Conclusion Solution-focused brief therapy is effective in improving anxiety and depression levels in patients with HIV/AIDS,and the application of this model in pregnant patients with HIV/AIDS has a more significant improvement effect,but high-quality,multicenter,large-sample clinical trial studies are needed to further confirm this conclusion in the future.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of modified all-arthroscopic reconstruction of medial patella femoral ligament (MPFL) for the treatment of recurrent patellar dislocation.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 38 patients (46 knees) with recurrent patellar dislocation, who were treated at First Affiliated Hospital of Shenzhen University from January 2017 to January 2020. The patients included 12 males (12 knees) and 26 females (34 knees), aged 14-40 years [(24.6±5.4)years]. All patients underwent the modified all-arthroscopic MPFL reconstruction procedure. The femoral tunnel locations were assessed by 3D-CT immediately after surgery. The MRI was performed at 6 and 12 months after operation to assess the healing morphology of the reconstructed MPFL. The Lysholm score and Kujala score were used to assess the knee function before operation, at 6 months after operation, at 12 months after operation and at the last follow-up. The time to return to sports as well as complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 26-48 months [(32.4±8.6)months]. Postoperative 3D-CT examination showed that the femoral tunnels were located in the groove area of the medial epicondyle of the femur and the adductor tubercle. At 6 and 12 months after operation, MRI T2 images showed that the reconstructed MPFL had a low signal and well tensioned ligament tissue, indicating that the MPFL was healed well. The Lysholm scores at 6 and 12 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up were (81.1±12.0)points, (91.2±3.8)points, and (92.2±9.8)points, respectively, being significantly higher than the preoperative (52.4±10.6)points (all P<0.01). The Kujala scores at 6 and 12 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up were (85.4±3.9)points, (91.4±3.6)points, and (93.1±8.5)points, respectively, being significantly higher than the preoperative (55.2±6.8)points (all P<0.01). Compared with 6 months postoperatively, the Lysholm score and Kujala score were significantly improved at 12 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up (all P<0.05). All patients returned to sports, with the time to return to sports for 3-12 months [(8.7±2.3)months] after operation. One patient had poor wound healing but was healed after dressing changes. No wound infection, nerve injury, joint stiffness, patella re-dislocation or other complications occurred. Conclusion:For recurrent patellar dislocation, the modified all-arthroscopic MPFL reconstruction has advantages of accurate bone tunnel positioning, good ligament healing, good function recovery, early return to sports, and less postoperative complications.
