Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in AIDS patients complicated with Pneumocystis jirovecii ( P. jirovecii) infection. Methods:This is a retrospective study. From January 2019 to June 2021, the respiratory tract and other body fluid samples of 236 cases of AIDS co-infected patients diagnosed in the AIDS Department of Changsha First Hospital were collected, along with corresponding medical histories. Traditional etiological hexamine silver staining and serum 1,3-β-D glucan (BDG) were performed simultaneously with mNGS detection, and Fisher′s exact test was used to analyze the results and compare the diagnostic performances of mNGS with those of hexamine silver staining and serum G test.Results:A total of 236 cases of AIDS patients with pulmonary infection were collected and tested. Seventy-seven cases were clinically diagnosed with Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia and 159 cases with non- Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia. Among the 236 AIDS patients with pulmonary infection, mNGS detected 77 [32.63%(77/236)] positive cases of Pneumocystis jiroveci, while hexamine silver staining detected 10[4.24%(10/236)] and serum BDG detected 146 [61.86% (146/236). Based on these clinical diagnostic results, the sensitivity of mNGS detection was 100% (77/77) for the 77 patients with Pneumocystis pneumoniae, significantly higher than that of silver hexamine staining [12.99% (10/77), P=0.046] and serum BDG [58.44% (45/77), P=0.038]. The mNGS showed good specificity, which was the same as that of hexamine silver staining [100% (159/159)] and significantly higher than that of serum BDG [36.48% (58/159), P=0.026]. With therapeutic clinical diagnosis as the reference method, the accuracy of mNGS detection was 100% (236/236). Conclusions:This study evaluated the diagnostic value of mNGS detection in AIDS patients with Pneumocystis jirovecii infection. The results showed that the sensitivity and specificity of mNGS detection were high, and it had exceptional clinical application value in the pathogenic detection of infectious diseases.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of using INFIX combined with hollow nail in the treatment of anterior pelvic ring injury with symphyseolysis.Methods:Data of 12 patients with anterior pelvic ring injury and symphyseolysis who were treated from January 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. They were 8 males and 4 females with an average age of 39.5 years (range, 23-64 years). There were 4 cases of traffic injury, 3 cases of falling injury and 5 cases of crush injury; all the cases were combined with front and rear crush injury. According to Tile classification for pelvic fractures, there were 6 cases of type B1 , 3 cases of type B3, 1 case of type C1 and 2 cases of type C2. Six cases of B1 and 3 cases of B3 patients used percutaneous inter fixation with sacroiliac joint cannulated screw in posterior ring; 1 case of C1 and 2 cases of C2 used spinal-pelvic fixation. Every patients' operating time of INFIX combined with the pubic symphysis hollow nail , amount of hemorrhage, length of incisions and number of X-ray projections were recorded. Pelvic X-ray and CT scan were taken postoperatively to observe the reduction and screw position. Postoperative reduction quality was assessed using Matta radiological criteria and Majeed criteria was used at the final follow-up to evaluate the pelvic function.Results:The average operating time for 12 patients was 42 min (range, 35-56 min) ; the average amount of hemorrhage was 28 ml (range, 15-40 ml); the average length of incision at INFIX nail placement on both sides were 2.7 cm (range, 2.2-3.5 cm); the average length of incisions at the pubic symphysis hollow nail placement was 0.8 cm (range, 0.6-1.2 cm) and the average number of X-ray projections was 38 times (range, 26-55 times). Postoperative X-ray and CT scan showed that all the hollow screws are located accurately and firmly, and pubic symphysis had good reduction and no infection occurred in the surgical incision at the screw placement site. Postoperative reduction quality was evaluated according to Matta radiological criteria, and there were excellent in 10 and good in 2, giving an excellent to good rate of 100% (12/12). The average follow-up time for the 12 patients was 12 months (range, 6-15 months). At the final follow-up, all patients showed fine fracture union and no looseness of pubic symphysis occurred according to imaging test. According to the Majeed criteria, the pelvic function was excellent in 8 cases, good in 3 cases and fair in 1 case, giving a good to excellent rate of 91.7% (11/12). One case developed symptoms of femoral nerve compression after surgery and returned to normal after removal of the INFIX. Another case had damage to the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve and the symptoms disappeared after three months.Conclusion:Using INFIX combined with hollow nail in the treatment of symphyseolysis can lead to more minimally invasive with excellent postoperative efficacy and markedly reduced the morbidity of complication.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of the vaginal birth after cesarean section (VBAC), and establish a model for predicting the risk of trial of the trial of labor after cesarean section (TOLAC). Methods From January 2016 to December 2018, total 694 pregnant women who underwent TOLAC in Northwest Women's and Children's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Those cases were divided into two groups according to the mode of delivery: the VBAC group and the failed TOLAC group. At the same time, 700 cases in the elective repeat cesarean section (ERCS) group were randomly selected as control group. The influencing factors of VBAC were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression, and the pregnancy outcomes between the three groups were compared. Results (1) The VBAC rate was 76.1% (528/694) and 166 women underwent the failed TOLAC (23.9%, 166/694). (2) Univariate analysis found that, the pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) [(22.0±3.0),(23.3±2.7) kg/m2], the previous vaginal delivery history [10.4%(55/528),3.6%(6/166)], the cervical score (5.2±1.9,4.3±1.6) and the neonatal birth weight [(3 315 ± 468), (3 484 ± 274) g] of the VBAC group were significantly different from the failed TOLAC group (P<0.05). (3) The comparison of pregnancy outcomes: the neonatal birth weight was (3 315± 468) g, and the intrapartum hemorrhage volume was (255 ± 121) ml in the VBAC group, which were significantly lower than those in the failed TOLAC group [intrapartum hemorrhage (325 ± 173) ml] and the ERCS group [(3 572±344) g, (281±125) ml], there were statistically significant differences in the comparison among the three groups (all P<0.05). Two cases of bladder injury occurred during cesarean section in the TOLAC failure group (1.2%,2/166). The rates of the blood transfusion, puerperal infection, 5-minute Apgar score and neonatal ICU admission among the three groups were no statistically significantly different (all P>0.05). There was no maternal or perinatal death. (4) Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the delivery age of pregnant women ( OR=0.92, 95% CI : 0.87-0.98), pre-pregnancy BMI ( OR=0.92, 95% CI :0.86-0.98), vaginal delivery history ( OR=3.31, 95% CI : 1.35-8.01), cervical score ( OR=1.29, 95% CI :1.13-1.42) and the birth weight of the neonates <3 300 g ( OR=3.15, 95% CI : 2.02-4.90) were independent influencing factors for VBAC. The area under curve of the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.74. Conclusions The influencing factors of VBAC are delivery age, pre-pregnancy BMI, vaginal delivery history, cervical score and neonatal birth weight <3 300 g. The adequate individualized management and assessment of the TOLAC may be helpful to improve the VBAC rate.
