Objective:To understand the epidemiological characteristics and spatiotemporal distribution of viral encephalitis in children and adolescents in Henan Province from 2012 to 2023.Methods:The information about viral encephalitis cases from October 1, 2012 to July 26, 2023 were collected from Zhengzhou Children's Hospital (National Children's Regional Medical Center),Henan Provincial Children's Hospital for the analyses on temporal distribution the cases, the severe illness rate, age distribution, pathogen type and imaging findings of the cases.Results:A total of 6 276 cases of viral encephalitis were included in this study after excluding cases with incomplete information. The cases mainly originated from Zhengzhou (38.96%), followed by Zhoukou (9.93%), Xuchang (8.68%), Zhumadian (7.90%) and Pingdingshan (7.39%). The cases in boys accounted for 62.13% and the cases in girls accounted for 37.87%. Most cases (72.45%) occurred in age group 7-13 years. The overall rate of severe illness cases was 4.51% from 2012 to 2023. There were significant differences in severe illness cases among different areas and years ( χ2=5.33, P=0.021; χ2=48.14, P<0.001). Enteroviruses were mainly detected (31.57%), in which Coxsackie virus was predominant (58.37%). Imaging findings showed that cerebral hemisphere damage was most common in children and adolescents with viral encephalitis (54.93%). Conclusions:From 2012 to 2023, more cases of viral encephalitis occurred in boys in Henan. Children and adolescents aged 7-13 years were the main affected group. The prevention of enteroviruses infection, especially Coxsackie virus, needs to be strengthened. Special attention should be paid to the prevention of cerebral hemisphere damage after viral encephalitis diagnosis.

Objective:To build a medical consumables demand prediction model to predict the demand for medical consumables,and to reduce the occurrence of emergency replenishment and shortage of medical consumables.Methods:The medical consumables demand prediction model was established using support vector regression(SVR)algorithm,the replenishment strategy and inventory control strategy optimization model was established using multiple population genetic algorithm(MPGA)to build a medical consumables demand forecasting model,and the replenishment strategy and inventory control strategy were automatically generated.The relevant data of supply-processing-distribution(SPD)mode introduced by Benxi Central Hospital for medical consumables management from January 2019 to May 2023 were selected for model training,model validation test(test set)and model application prediction(application set),respectively.The average absolute prediction error,peak prediction error and trough of prediction error of the model were evaluated,and the average ratio of consumption per day to inventory cost,the average number of urgent orders per month,the average number of out of stock per month,the average number of non-urgent orders per month and the decreasing range of the index weekly average were compared.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the average absolute prediction error between the model test set and the application set(P＞0.05).The average absolute prediction error of the model was 0.033 5±0.024 5,the peak prediction error was 0.071 7 and the trough of prediction error was-0.0090.After the application of the model,the ratio of average daily consumption to inventory cost,the average number of monthly emergency order frequency,the average number of shortage of stock,and the average number of monthly non-emergency orders were(0.457 5±0.060 3),(23.95±6.04),(5.58±2.17),and(20.68±2.77),respectively.The ratio of daily average consumption to inventory cost was higher than that before the application,the average number of monthly emergency order,shortage of stock,and monthly non-emergency order were lower than those before the application,the difference was statistically significant(F=371.912,88.486,124.472,142.138,P＜0.000).After the application of the model,the weekly average inventory amount decreased by 43.66%,and the average number of emergency replenishment decreased by 53.76%,the average number of shortages of stock decreased by 76.95%,and the average shortage of stock normal replenishments decreased by 34.41%.Conclusion:The medical consumables demand prediction model can predict the demand for medical consumables,optimize replenishment and inventory control strategies,reduce the cost of medical consumables inventory,reduce occurrence of emergency replenishment and shortages of stock,and reduce the number of normal replenishment.

We conducted a prospective study to assess the non-inferiority of adjuvant chemotherapy alone versus adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) as an alternative strategy for patients with early-stage (FIGO 2009 stage IB-IIA) cervical cancer having risk factors after surgery. The condition was assessed in terms of prognosis, adverse effects, and quality of life. This randomized trial involved nine centers across China. Eligible patients were randomized to receive adjuvant chemotherapy or CCRT after surgery. The primary end-point was progression-free survival (PFS). From December 2012 to December 2014, 337 patients were subjected to randomization. Final analysis included 329 patients, including 165 in the adjuvant chemotherapy group and 164 in the adjuvant CCRT group. The median follow-up was 72.1 months. The three-year PFS rates were both 91.9%, and the five-year OS was 90.6% versus 90.0% in adjuvant chemotherapy and CCRT groups, respectively. No significant differences were observed in the PFS or OS between groups. The adjusted HR for PFS was 0.854 (95% confidence interval 0.415-1.757; P = 0.667) favoring adjuvant chemotherapy, excluding the predefined non-inferiority boundary of 1.9. The chemotherapy group showed a tendency toward good quality of life. In comparison with post-operative adjuvant CCRT, adjuvant chemotherapy treatment showed non-inferior efficacy in patients with early-stage cervical cancer having pathological risk factors. Adjuvant chemotherapy alone is a favorable alternative post-operative treatment.

Objective:To evaluate the application effect of vascularized iliac crest-tensor fascia lata flap(VIC-TFLF) based on deep circumflex iliac artery and vein in mandibular and oral soft tissue defect reconstruction.Methods:Retrospective analysis of the clinical data of patients with mandible and oral soft tissue defects in Henan Provincial People’s Hospital from October 2020 to March 2022. All cases were performed with computer-aided design and three-dimensional printing to make the models and guide plates. VIC-TFLF was used to repair and reconstruct the oral and mandible defects, the tensor fascia lata flap was used to repair the intraoral soft tissue defect, and the fascia lata was exposed to the mouth directly. After operation, the color, texture and change of intraoral flap were observed, and the recovery and complications were followed up.Results:In this study, 7 patients were included, 4 males and 3 females, aged 27-64 years old, with an average of 50.1 years old. There were 5 cases of squamous cell carcinoma of mandible gingival and cheek, 1 case of postoperative defect of pleomorphic adenocarcinoma of mandible, and 1 case of postoperative defect of ameloblastoma of mandible. According to the defect range of soft and hard tissue after resection, the flap areas of tensor fascia lata were 6.0 cm×3.0 cm-8.0 cm×6.0 cm, and the iliac bones were 3.7 cm×2.4 cm-9.2 cm×2.5 cm. All the composite tissue flaps survived, without distal necrosis, delayed wound healing and marginal fistula. The patients were followed up for 4-19 months, with an average of 11.7 months. The morphology and functions of the mandible and oral soft tissue were well recovered. The surface of tensor fascia lata was exposed to the oral cavity directly, which showed signs of mucosalization within 1 week after operation. The mucosalization was basically completed within 1 month, which was close to normal oral mucosal appearance, and could be reconstructed to produce better oral mucosal appearance in the later period. The wounds in the donor site healed well, and there was no abnormality in lower limb movement and thigh flexion. Among them, 3 patients had numbness on the lateral thigh skin of the donor site 3-5 days after operation. After 6 months of follow-up, the numbness in 2 cases disappeared, and 1 case was significantly reduced.Conclusions:The VIC-TFLF could obtain great appearance and function, with fewer complications and relatively small damage to the donor site, in repair and reconstruction of mandibular defects combined with oral soft tissue defects.

Objective:To analyze the early identification, clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of gestational hypertension crisis combined with adrenal disease.Methods:The clinical data of 23 patients of HCP complicated with adrenal disease admitted from Jul. 2009 to Jul. 2019 were retrospectively studied. The clinical characteristics, imaging characteristics, treatment and clinical transfer were studied.Results:The occurrence of all the 23 cases were acute. Among them, 16 cases had eclampsia combined with Cushing’s syndrome, 4 cases were pregnancy combined with primary aldosteronism (PA) and extreme hypokalemia, and 3 cases had eclampsia combined with pheochromocytoma (PHEO) . After admission, the patients were given symptomatic support treatment for sedation, analgesia, blood pressure control, dehydration, cranial pressure reduction, electrolyte balance and spasmolysis, and patients with severe preeclampsia and preeclampsia terminated their pregnancy in time. After treatment, 3 patients gave live birth, 12 received postpartum surgical treatment and 10 received drug treatment. The clinical symptoms improved and imaging examination suggested the lesions in the brain narrowed and disappeared, except one patient had major cerebral hemorrhage and died of multiple organ failure.Conclusions:In case of HCP and severe hypokalemia, relevant examinations should be improved in combination with symptoms to comprehensively diagnose whether it is complicated with adrenal diseases. The treatment methods and process of HCP with adrenal diseases need to be optimized, so as to judge the timing of termination of pregnancy, and minimize the impact on mother and fetus.

Objective:To investigate the prognosis and influencing factors of secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer.Methods:A total of 102 patients with recurrent ovarian cancer admitted to our hospital from Jun. 2012 to Jun. 2015 were selected and grouped according to treatment methods. 31 patients who received paclitaxel/carboplatin (TC) chemotherapy were included in the control group, and 71 patients who received SCS combined with TC chemotherapy were included in the observation group. Clinical efficacy and 5-year survival outcome of the two groups after treatment, were compared and factors affecting the prognosis of the observation group were analyzed.Results:The total effective rate, 1-year survival rate, 3-year survival rate, and 5-year survival rate of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group. The median survival time of the observation group was 52 months and was significantly longer than that of the control group by 17 months ( P<0.05) ; There was no statistical difference between the death group and the survival group in terms of age, pathological type, tissue differentiation, recurrence tumor size, or location of recurrence tumors. The number of patients with FIGO stage IV, more than 3 recurrent tumors, ascites and residual lesion size >1 cm in the death group were significantly larger than those in the survival group. The serum CA125 level of patients in the death group was significantly higher than that in the survival group. Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of recurring tumors>3, with ascites, and residual lesions>1 cm, and high level of CA125 were independent risk factors for death after SCS combined with TC chemotherapy ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:SCS combined with chemotherapy can effectively improve the therapeutic effect, relieve the clinical symptoms, improve the survival rate of patients, and prolong the survival time of patients. The prognosis of SCS combined with chemotherapy is affected by the number of recurrent tumors, the presence or absence of ascites, the size of residual lesions, and CA125 level. The prognosis and survival of patients can be improved by adopting appropriate treatment.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of COVID-19 case spectrum and spread intensity in different provinces in China except Hubei province.Methods:The daily incidence data and case information of COVID-19 were collected from the official websites of provincial and municipal health commissions. The morbidity rate, severity rate, case-fatality rate, and spread ratio of COVID-19 were calculated.Results:As of 20 March, 2020, a total of 12 941 cases of COVID-19 had been conformed, including 116 deaths, and the average morbidity rate, severity rate and case-fatality rate were 0.97/100 000, 13.5 % and 0.90 %, respectively. The morbidity rates in Zhejiang (2.12/100 000), Jiangxi (2.01/100 000) and Beijing (1.93/100 000) ranked top three. The characteristics of COVID-19 case spectrum varied from province to province. The first three provinces (autonomous region, municipality) with high severity rates were Tianjin (45.6 %), Xinjiang (35.5 %) and Heilongjiang (29.5 %). The case-fatality rate was highest in Xinjiang (3.95 %), followed by Hainan (3.57 %) and Heilongjiang (2.70 %). The average spread ratio was 0.98 and the spread intensity varied from province to province. Tibet had the lowest spread ratio (0), followed by Qinghai (0.20) and Guangdong (0.23). Conclusion:The intervention measures were effective in preventing the spread of COVID-19 and improved treatment effect in China. However, there were significant differences among different regions in severity, case-fatality rate and spread ratio.

Objective To understand the prevalence,treatment and influence factors of hypertension in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients in Anhui Province.Methods A total of 2724 adult patients on MHD from January 1st 2014 to March 31st 2014 in 26 hospitals of southern,northern and central Anhui Province were investigated.Their demographic characteristics,primary disease,complications,medications,dialysis and laboratory examination were explored.The prevalence treatment rate and control rate of hypertension were analyzed.Associated factors for controlling hypertension [systolic blood pressure (SBP) ＜ 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ＜ 90 mmHg] were assessed by logistic regression analysis.Results (1) The prevalence of hypertension in the hemodialysis patients was 87.0％.Their treatment rate and control rate were 93.2％ and 23.9％ respectively.The average of SBP was (145.90±21.18) mmHg,and the DBP on average was (83.60± 12.21) mmHg.The most commonly used anti-hypertensive drug is calcium channel blocker (88.2％).Over one third (45.7％) of patients were treated with two kinds of anti-hypertensive drug,26.2％ with 1 kind,21.7％ with 3 kinds,and 6.4％ with 4 kinds or more.(2) Compared with non-hypertension patients,patients with hypertension have older age,higher body mass index (BMI),phosphorus,SBP and DBP,as well as lower hemoglobin and Kt/V (all P ＜ 0.05).(3) The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that Ca ＞ 2.50 mmol/L (OR=2.084,95％CI 1.008-4.307,P=0.047) positively correlated with controlling hypertension,while smoke (OR=0.594,95％CI 0.356-0.911,P=0.046) and BMI 18.5 ～ 23.9 kg/m2 (OR=0.516,95％CI 0.293-0.907,P=0.022) negatively correlated with it.Conclusions High prevalence yet low control rate of hypertension in MHD patients in Anhui Province were observed.Hypocalcemia may be a protective factor for hypertension control,while smoke and BMI may be risk factors for it.

Purpose To evaluate the feasibility of magnetic resonance T2 values in diagnosing hepatic fibrosis (HF).Materials and M1etdheds The models of HF were induced in rats by repetitive dosing of carbon tetrachloride.The stage of hepatic fibrosis (S),grade of inflammation (G) and degree of fatty liver (F) for the HF model animals and their normal controls were evaluated by pathology.The relationship between T2 values and liver fibrosis was analyzed by using multiple echo gradient spin echo sequences.Results According to the stage of hepatic fibrosis,the HF model rats were staged into S1-S4.The grade of inflammation of the HF model rats was G0 or G1,and the degree of fatty liver was F3 or F4,both of which had no statistical differences among the HF model rats at different fibrosis stages (P＞0.05).The T2 values for all rats including normal control rats in the stage of liver fibrosis from S0 to S4 were (38.27±1.45) ms,(42.08±2.63) ms,(45.93±3.61) ms,(50.23 ± 2.23) ms and (57.79± 5.40) ms,respectively,with a significant difference (F=31.903,P＜0.01).Except the T2 values had no significant difference between the S0 and S 1 stages (P＞0.05),the pairwise comparisons of the T2 values between the rest stages were statistically significant (P＜0.01).The T2 values were positively correlated with the stages of hepatic fibrosis (rs=0.921,P＜0.01).Conclusion The T2 value can quantitatively reflect the degree of hepatic fibrosis.
