Objective:To describe and analyze suicide risk of patients with schizophrenia,major depressive disorder,and bipolar disorder.Methods:A total of 2 016 patients with schizophrenia,903 patients with major de-pressive disorder,and 381 patients with bipolar disorder from inpatients,clinics,or communities who met the diag-nostic criteria of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition were recruited.All patients were interviewed by psychiatrists using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview to diagnose mental disor-ders and assess suicide risk,as well as Clinical-Rated Dimensions of Psychosis Symptom Severity(CRDPSS)to as-sess symptoms.Differences and risk factors of suicide risk among three types of mental disorders were explored u-sing multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:In the past one month,37 patients with schizophrenia(1.8％),516 patients with major depressive disorder(57.1％),and 102 patients with bipolar disorder(26.8％)had suicide risk.Compared with patients with schizophrenia,suicide risk in patients with major depressive disorder(OR=36.50)and bipolar disorder(OR=20.10)increased.Female(OR=1.87),smoking(OR=1.76),family history of suicide(OR=5.09),higher score of CRDPSS hallucination(OR=1.80),and higher score of CRDPSS depression(OR=1.54)were risk factors of suicide risk of patients.Conclusions:Suicide risk of patients with ma-jor depressive disorder and bipolar disorder is higher than that of patients with schizophrenia.In clinical practice,it is important to regularly assess suicide risk of patients.Patients who experience symptoms of hallucination and de-pression should be paid more attention to.

Due to factors such as an aging population, the Hospital Authority(HA) of Hong Kong is facing a contradiction between limited health resource supply and continuously increasing demand. In order to effectively address challenges, the HA prompted three measures to bridging the demand-supply gap. The HA relied on its management system advantages to continuously increase its capital construction to enhance the service capacity of public health institutions; transformed service delivery mode so as to improve the experience, quality, and efficiency of service delivery; established cooperation with private service providers and communities to shunt population health demand. The practices of HA can provide reference for public hospitals and their sponsors in other regions of China.

Objective:To prepare chitosan/gelatin hydrogel composite hemostatic materials loaded with Panax notoginseng (PN/CMC/GMs) and evaluate their performance. Methods:PN/CMC/GMs hydrogel composite hemostatic material were prepared by the freeze-drying method, and their morphology was observed by scanning electron microscopy. Their rheological properties were observed by a rheometer. Their water absorption rate was tested by dissolution. Their biocompatibility was detected by a cytotoxicity assay. Their rapid hemostatic effect was tested using a SD rat liver hemorrhage model.Results:PN/CMC/GMs composite hemostatic materials were prepared in a lattice-like structure with certain porosity. With the increase in Panax notoginseng powder content, the modulus of PN/CMC/GMs increased accordingly, and the mechanical strength increased. PN/CMC/GMs have better water absorption and expansion functions, which can form compression hemostasis and concentrated blood to achieve rapid hemostasis, and have good biocompatibility. Hemostasis experiments showed that the hemostatic time and hemostatic effect of PN, CMC/GMs hemostatic materials on liver injury in rats were better than those of the blank control group. Conclusions:PN/CMC/GMs have good hemostatic effect and biocompatibility and have the potential for further research and clinical application.

Objective:To investigate the emergency surgical effect of ruptured intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF).Methods:Patients with ruptured intracranial DAVF underwent microsurgery in the Department of Neurosurgery, Nanping First Hospital Affiliated to Fujian Medical University from May 2013 to July 2022 were retrospectively included. The clinical, imaging and follow-up data were collected, and the clinical characteristics, selection of surgical methods and treatment effects of patients were summarized.Results:A total of 8 patients with DAVF were enrolled. Their age ranged from 11 to 60 years (average, 48 years). There were 7 males and 1 female. All 8 patients suffered from intracranial hemorrhage, manifested as headache and vomiting in 2 cases, simple conscious disturbance in 2 cases, conscious disturbance with cerebral hernia in 3 cases, and conscious disturbance with limb paralysis in 1 case. The fistula was located in the anterior fossa in 4 cases (including 2 cases with aneurysms), the middle fossa in 2 cases (including 1 case with moyamoya disease), the transverse sinus in 1 case, and the anterior 1/3 area of the sagittal sinus in 1 case. Cognard classification: 7 patients were type Ⅲ and 1 was type Ⅳ. After admission, all patients underwent emergency craniotomy and microsurgery to remove hematoma. Among them, 4 patients underwent decompressive craniectomy at the same time, 1 patient with moyamoya disease underwent dural turnover and temporalis muscle application at the same time, and 2 patients with aneurysms at the same location were clipped at the same time. Postoperative re-examination of head CT showed that the hematoma was cleared satisfactorily and the midline was no shift in all 8 patients. CT angiography (CTA) showed that the fistula disappeared within 2 weeks. Seven patients were followed up within 1-12 months after operation. CTA or digital subtraction angiography showed no recurrence of DAVF. Two patients with aneurysms did not have residual or recurrent aneurysms. All patients had no new neurological symptoms, and the Glasgow Outcome Scale score in 2 patients increased by 1 compared with that at discharge.Conclusion:Emergency microsurgery is an effective method for the treatment of ruptured intracranial DAVF, especially for patients with special parts or complicated hematoma, cerebral hernia, and other vascular diseases.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of tracheotomy and nasal intubation in airways management in treatment of patients with respiratory failure caused by severe tetanus.Methods:A respective case series study was conducted to analyze the data of 92 patients with respiratory failure caused by severe tetanus admitted to Jiangxi Chest Hospital from January 2012 to December 2019. There were 60 males and 32 females, aged 23-81 years [(47.5±14.1)years]. Overall 43 patients underwent tracheotomy (tracheotomy group), and 49 patients underwent nasal intubation (nasal intubation group). The blood gas related indexes (PaO 2, PaCO 2), catheter retention time, incidence of complications such as airway bleeding, nasosinusitis, catheter blockage and ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), and clinical outcome were compared between the two groups. Results:After mechanical ventilation, the PaO 2 and PaCO 2 in both groups were significantly improved ( P<0.01), with no significant difference between groups ( P>0.05). Both groups were similar regarding the catheter indwelling time, catheter blockage, airway bleeding and nasosinusitis ( P>0.05). The incidences of VAP and catheter blockage after extubation in tracheotomy group [12%(5/43), 12%(5/43)] were significantly different from those in nasal intubation group [0%(0/49), 31%(15/49)] ( P<0.05). There were 3 deaths in each group, with the mortality rate of 7% (3/43) in tracheotomy group and of 6% (3/49) in nasal intubation group ( P>0.05). Both groups of live tetanus patients were cured. After 3-month follow-up, the tetanus was cured in the two groups. Conclusions:The tracheotomy and transnasal tracheal intubation are optional for severe tetanus patients with respiratory failure. The former has airway and tissue trauma, but it is convenient for mechanical ventilation management, especially indicated for patients with severe convulsions, angular arch reflexes, poor sedation, and continuous application of muscle relaxants. Nasal intubation is relatively non-invasive, simple and fast method, but the prevention and monitoring of VAP requires higher requirements.

Facial injuries due to animal bites are normal. Recent studies have demonstrated that primary wound closure with cosmetic suture techniques and/or plastic and reconstructive repair techniques for facial injuries caused by animal bites will improve the cosmetic effect and patients' satisfaction without increasing the wound infection rate. Hence, early plastic surgery is recommended to repair facial injuries caused by animal bites. The authors review the characteristics and injury assessment of facial injuries caused by animal bites, wound debridement techniques, cosmetic suture techniques, and cosmetic sutures of animal bites in various parts, aiming to provide a reference to the plastic and reconstructive therapy for facial injuries caused by animal bites.

Human vaccine is the most effective tool to prevent infectious diseases. At present, there are dozens of vaccines that can prevent dozens of infectious diseases. Vaccines for human use include vaccines that do not contain living micro-organisms (inactivated vaccines, toxoid vaccines, component vaccines), and vaccines that contain living micro-organisms (live attenuated vaccines and vector vaccines). The research and development of human vaccine includes clinical trial, process development and test method research, and the production process of human vaccine is very important for the preparation of high-quality and reliable vaccine. In this paper, the development of human vaccines, the production process and the characteristics of various human vaccines are reviewed.

Tetanus consists of neonatal tetanus and non-neonatal tetanus.Non-neonatal tetanus remains a serious public health problem,although neonatal tetanus has been eliminated in China since 2012.Non-neonatal tetanus is a potential fatal disease.In the absence of medical intervention,the mortality rate of severe cases is almost 100％.Even with vigorous treatment,the mortality rate is still 30％-50％ globally.These specifications aim to regulate non-neonatal tetanus diagnosis and treatment in China,in order to improve medical quality and safety.These specifications introduce the etiology,epidemiology,pathogenesis,clinical manifestations and laboratory tests,diagnosis,differential diagnosis,grading and treatment of non-neonatal tetanus.

Post-traumatic tetanus is the main type of non-neonatal tetanus.To reduce the incidence and mortality rateof tetanus and guide the primary medical institutions to prevent and control tetanus after trauma,the National Immunization Planning Technical Working Group of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention has compiled this document in the reference with Position Paper by World Health Organization,and the latest research progress both at home and abroad.The guidelines focus on the basic procedures for the prevention and treatment of post-traumatic tetanus,the application of tetanus vaccines and immune preparation,and pre-exposure immunization in high-risk populations of trauma.
