Objective: To understand the changing trends and related factors of knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) regarding the three major infectious diseases (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, tuberculosis, hepatitis B) among freshmen in Jiangsu from 2019 to 2022, so as to provide a reference basis for the health education of infectious diseases in schools. Methods: From 2019 to 2022, a total of 33 944 freshmen from 20 universities in Jiangsu Province were randomly selected for four consecutive years to investigate their KAP levels online through self designed questionnaires on three major infectious diseases. The multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the changing trends of students KAP levels of the three major infectious diseases, and to explore the influencing factors of KAP. Results: From 2019 to 2022, the knowledge scores(18.0±3.1,18.4±3.2,18.7±3.2,18.8±3.2), related to the three major infectious diseases showed an upward trend ( F=436.50, P <0.01), and the positive attitude reporting rates were 81.77%, 81.46%, 82.68% and 81.74%, respectively. The reporting rates of positive practice were 80.11%, 79.25%, 79.08 % and 79.04%, respectively. Multiple linear regression showed that school type, parental education level, mother s occupation, average income per person in family and living arrangements during high school all had an impact on the knowledge ( β = -1.510 -0.559), attitudes ( β =-0.043-0.065) and practice ( β =-0.028-0.027) of the three major infectious diseases ( P < 0.05 ). The family residence areas only affected the reporting rate of positive attitude scores ( β =0.002-0.065), and whether only children or not affected the reporting rate of positive practice scores ( β =0.009)( P <0.05). The knowledge score showed an upward trend ( β= 0.297, P <0.01), the positive attitude reporting rate showed no statistically significant change ( β=0.001, P =0.22), and the positive practice reporting rate showed a downward trend ( β=-0.005, P <0.01). Conclusions Freshman in Jiangsu Province from 2019 to 2022 have shown a separation in KAP scores regarding the three major infectious diseases. Targeted measures should be taken to improve their health practice level.

Objective: To analyze the association of participation in non-sports extracurricular tutoring classes with the prevalence of screening myopia, axial length (AL) and axial length to corneal radius ratio (AL/CR) among primary school students, so as to provide evidences for formulating myopia prevention and control policies. Methods: In December 2024, combination of convenience and cluster sampling method was used to select 2 273 students from two primary schools in Hefei City, Anhui Province. Ophthalmic examinations and questionnaire surveys were conducted to obtain information on myopia, AL, AL/CR and participation in various types of extracurricular tutoring. A binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between non-sports tutoring and screening myopia, and multiple linear regression models were used to examine the associations between non-sports tutoring and AL and AL/CR. Results: Among the surveyed students, the participation rate in non-sports extracurricular tutoring classes was 64.9% , and the overall prevalence of screening myopia was 39.1%. The average AL and AL/CR were (23.60± 1.01 ) mm and (3.00±0.12), respectively. Univariate analysis showed that students who attended non-sports, music, or academic tutoring classes for ≥2 h per week had higher risks of screening myopia and greater AL/CR values than non-participants (screening myopia: OR =1.38, 1.82, 1.55; AL/CR: β =0.01, 0.03, 0.03; all P <0.05). After adjusting for sex, grade, and participation in sports tutoring, multivariate analysis indicated that participation in non-sports and musical instrument tutoring classes for ≥2 h per week remained significantly associated with higher risks of screening myopia ( OR =1.26, 1.49, both P <0.05). Multiple linear regression showed that participation in musical instrument tutoring for ≥2 h per week was positively correlated with AL ( β=0.14, P < 0.05). Conclusions Participation in non-sports extracurricular tutoring is common among primary school students. Attending non-sports tutoring classes for ≥2 h per week increases the risk of screening myopia.

Objective To monitor the antifungal resistance of clinical isolates of Candida spp.in the East China region.Methods MALDI-TOF MS or molecular methods were used to re-identify the strains collected from January 2018 to December 2022.Antifungal susceptibility testing was performed using the broth microdilution method.The susceptibility test results were interpreted according to the breakpoints of 2022 Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)documents M27 M44s-Ed3 and M57s-Ed4.Results A total of 3 026 strains of Candida were collected,65.33％of which were isolated from sterile body sites,mainly from blood(38.86％)and pleural effusion/ascites(10.21％).The predominant species of Candida were Candida albicans(44.51％),followed by Candida parapsilosis complex(19.46％),Candida tropicalis(13.98％),Candida glabrata(10.34％),and other Candida species(0.79％).Candida albicans showed overall high susceptibility rates to the 10 antifungal drugs tested(the lowest rate being 93.62％).Only 2.97％of the strains showed dose-dependent susceptibility(SDD)to fluconazole.Candida parapsilosis complex had a SDD rate of 2.61％and a resistance rate of 9.42％to fluconazole,and susceptibility rates above 90％to other drugs.Candida glabrata had a SDD rate of 92.01％and a resistance rate of 7.99％to fluconazole,resistance rates of 32.27％and 48.24％to posaconazole and voriconazole non-wild-type strains(NWT),respectively,and susceptibility rates above 90％to other drugs.Candida tropicalis had resistance rates of 29.55％and 26.24％to fluconazole and voriconazole,respectively,resistance rates of 76.60％and 21.99％to posaconazole and echinocandins non-wild-type strains(NWT),and a resistance rate of 2.36％to echinocandins.Conclusions The prevalence and species distribution of Candida spp.in the East China region are consistent with previous domestic and international reports.Candida glabrata exhibits certain degree of resistance to fluconazole,while Candida tropicalis demonstrates higher resistance to triazole drugs.Additionally,echinocandins resistance has emerged in Candida albicans,Candida glabrata,Candida tropicalis,and Candida parapsilosis.

Objective:To establish a risk prediction model of liver failure after liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma.Method:A retrospective case-control study was designed. Clinical data and laboratory results, including gender, age, and preoperative 18 laboratory indicators, were collected from 320 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma undergoing liver resection in Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital Affiliated to Naval Medical University from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2023. According to the surgical time, 252 cases in the training cohort were divided into 62 and 190 cases with and without postoperative liver failure, respectively. Of the 68 cases in validation cohort, 34 developed postoperative liver failure and 34 did not. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to conduct univariate analysis of gender, age, and 18 preoperative laboratory indicators, and multivariate analysis was carried out for significant results to determine the influencing factors of liver failure after liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma, and Logistic regression model was established.Result:In the training cohort, indicators significantly associated with liver failure after liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma included age ( P=0.016), platelets ( P=0.005), prealbumin ( P<0.001), and alkaline phosphatase ( P<0.001). Logistic regression was used to construct a nomogram model and draw a calibration curve by combining these four indicators. In the training cohort, the nomogram model showed good discriminability in predicting the risk of liver failure after hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma. The area under the curve of was 0.82 (95% CI 0.76-0.88), and the sensitivity was 73% and specificity was 80% when the optimal cut-off value was 0.2646. In the validation cohort, the predictive performance of the nomogram model was comparable to that of the training cohort, with an area under the curve of 0.81 (95% CI 0.71-0.92), sensitivity of 82%, and specificity of 77%. Conclusion:Preoperative platelet and prealbumin decreases, alkaline phosphatase increases, and elderly patients are prone to liver failure after liver resection. The nomogram model constructed with preoperative test data has shows good discriminatory ability and accuracy in predicting liver failure after liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective:To analyze the clinical situation of critically ill children with Montgomery T-tube，aiming to summarize the characteristics of T-tube application in pediatric and the experience of postoperative airway management in PICU.Methods:The etiology，clinical characteristics，complications and ICU admissions of patients with Montgomery T-tube admitted to the Pediatric Hospital of Fudan University from April 2019 to December 2021 were analyzed，and the application of T-tube in patients with critical conditions requiring long-term mechanical ventilation was described in the light of clinical experience.Results:During the study period,seven children were admitted to the PICU after T-tube insertion,including three males and four females,aged 9~75 months.Five children received mechanical ventilation.Among them,there were five cases with congenital laryngeal malformations,one case with tracheoesophageal fistula,and one case with laryngeal papilloma.The main complications were sputum blockage,infection,and granulation proliferation.One child died of secretion blockage,while the other children were successfully evacuated from the T-tube.The longest retention time of the T-tube was 367 days.Five patients experienced hoarseness after removing the T-tube,and upon re-examination with fiberoptic bronchoscopy,no recurrence of subglottic stenosis was observed.There was no respiratory distress or wheezing,and there were no abnormalities observed during regular outpatient follow-up after discharge.After discharge,the quality of life of the six surviving children improved compared to preoperative,and they all resumed oral feeding.There were no complaints of swallowing difficulties or aspiration during outpatient follow-up.But they were all combined with malnutrition.Conclusion:The Montgomery T-tube is a secure and dependable airway stent utilized for airway remodeling and the maintenance of airway patency following interventional surgery.For critically ill children,early management of airway clearance and infection prevention are imperative.

Objective To retrospectively analyze of factors influencing early preterm birth(EPB)and late preterm birth(LPB)in pregnancy women with placenta previa complicated by placenta accreta spectrum disorders(PAS),and assess maternal and infant outcomes.Methods We included 590 cases of pregnancy women with placenta previa complicated by PAS who underwent cesarean sections at five hospitals in Wuhan and Xianning cities between January 2018 and June 2021.These patients were divided into three groups based on delivery gesta-tional age:EPB,LPB,and term birth(TB).A multiple logistic regression model was employed to analyze the risk factors associated with EPB and LPB.Additionally,differences in early maternal and infant outcomes among these groups were examined.Results Among 590 pregnancy women with placenta previa complicated by PAS,the proportions of EPB and LPB were 9.7%and 54.4%.The use of uterine contraction inhibitors prior to cesarean section,vaginal bleeding,and previous cesarean sections history were identified as risk factors for both EPB and LPB.The proportion of severe postpartum hemorrhage was comparable between the EPB group and the LPB group;however,the incidence of neonatal asphyxia,low birth weight infants,and the rate of newborns transferred to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit(NICU)within 24 hours after cesarean delivery were significantly higher in the EPB group compared to the LPB group.Conclusions Placenta previa complicated by PAS predominantly leads to LPB.The history of prior cesarean sections,uterine contractions,and vaginal bleeding prior to cesarean section,are sig-nificantly associated with both EPB and LPB.During the perinatal period,efforts should be made to extend gesta-tional weeks under close monitoring to minimize the incidence of premature births and thereby improve early mater-nal and infant outcomes.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of combining fractional CO2 laser with triam-cinolone acetonide and econazole nitrate cream for the treatment of vulvar lichen sclerosus(VLS).Methods The clinical data of 113 patients with vulvar lichen sclerosus(VLS)were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into an observation group and a control group based on different treatments received.Clinical symptoms(vulvar itching,painful intercourse)and signs(vulvar skin color,vulvar skin elasticity,range of vulvar lesions)were scored using the Cattaneo scoring criteria.The Cattaneo scores before and after treatment were recorded for each patient,and comparisons were made between groups in terms of Cattaneo scores and occurrence of adverse reac-tions.The therapeutic efficacy of fractional CO2 laser combined with triamcinolone acetonide and econazole nitrate cream was evaluated.Results After three treatments,both groups exhibited a significant decrease in Cattaneo scores,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).The study group demonstrated a significantly greater reduction in Cattaneo scores compared to the control group(P<0.05).Furthermore,the cure rate of VSL was higher in the study group than in the control group(25.86%vs.10.91%,P<0.05).Regarding adverse effects,there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusions Compared to the single application of fractional CO2 laser,the combination of fractional CO2 laser with triamcinolone acetonide and econazole nitrate cream demonstrates enhanced efficacy in alleviating signs and symptoms among patients with vulvar sclerosing tundra,while minimizing adverse reactions.This approach holds significant potential for clinical implementation.

Purpose To investigate the feasibility of apoptosis small-molecule probe CYS-F for in vivo molecular imaging in acute middle cerebral artery embolization and recalculation models,and to explore its ability to reflect lesions.Materials and Methods Hela cell apoptosis was induced by Adriamycin,and the targeting ability of the probe was verified in vitro.Clinical middle cerebral artery embolization was simulated,acute ischemic stroke model(n=15)and recanalization model(n=15)were constructed,and the vessels were evaluated by magnetic resonance angiography imaging.The distribution of CYS-F was investigated by injecting the probe into the caudal vein.24 hours after modeling,the lesion volume rate was assessed on T2WI,and apoptosis was assessed in vivo by near infrared imaging.Niss and c-fos staining were used to compare the differences between the two groups.Results CYS-F showed a good ability to target apoptosis in vitro.After modeling,Doppler flowmeter and magnetic resonance angiography showed that the middle cerebral artery was successfully embolized in the embolization group,and the artery was recanalized in the recanalization group.Near infrared imaging showed the loss of fluorescence signal in the middle cerebral artery region in the embolized group.24 hours after modeling,T2WI showed that the infarct volume rate in the recanalization group was significantly lower than that in the embolization group(0.055±0.015 vs.0.512±0.220;t=19.761,P<0.001).The fluorescence intensity of the embolization group was significantly stronger than that of the recusing group,the target to background ratio was 1.215±0.162 and 0.731±0.085,respectively(t=10.252,P<0.001).In the embolization group,a large number of activated neurons expressed c-fos protein,and a large number of cells underwent nuclear condensation and lysis by Niss staining.Conclusion The acute embolization model and recalculation model of middle cerebral artery in mice are close to the clinic.CYS-F can be used to image apoptosis in vivo,reflect the lesion degree,and reflect the local tissue blood perfusion at the initial stage of injection.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of AcoStream peripheral thrombus aspiration system combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis in the treatment of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis.Methods:The clinical data of 16 lower extremity deep vein thrombosis cases treated with AcoStream peripheral thrombus aspiration system combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis, admitted to the authors′ hospital from May 2022 to November 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. The differences in circumferential diameter between the affected limb and the healthy side, venous patency score, thrombus clearance grade and intraoperative blood loss were observed and compared. The Villalta score was used during the follow up. Paired sample t-test and Wilcoxon rank sum test were used to compare the changes in the observed indicators before and after treatment to evaluate the efficacy. Results:Treatment were successfully performed in all patients. Before treatment, the circumference differences between the affected and unaffected thighs and calves were (3.69±0.97) and (3.34±0.75)cm, respectively, the venous patency score of the affected side was 8(7.25,9) points. After treatment, the circumference differences between the affected and unaffected thighs and calves were (0.81±0.68) and (0.84±0.70)cm, respectively. The venous patency score of the affected side was 1(0,1)points, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.001). Grade Ⅲ thrombus clearance was achieved in 7 patients, grade Ⅱ thrombus clearance was achieved in 9 patients. The average blood loss during thrombus aspiration was (133.1±12.0) ml. Following up for 6 months, the Villalta score was 0(0,1.75) points. Conclusion:Acostream peripheral thrombus aspiration system combined with catheter-directed thrombolysis is safe and effective for the treatment of lower extremity deep venous thrombosis, with satisfactory short-term efficacy and high clinical application value.

Objective:To explore the differences in the spatial distributions of brain metastases (BMs) from adenocarcinoma and non-adenocarcinoma among non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLS), aiming to provide a reference for developing optimal treatment protocols.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on data from 283 patients with NSCLC who underwent radiotherapy at the Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from January 2020 to July 2023. These patients included 191 adenocarcinoma cases with an average age of 62.04 years and 92 non-adenocarcinoma cases with an average age of 63.85 years. CT images with detected BMs of these patients were synchronously deformed and registered into a standard brain template to determine the distribution of BMs in the template. The Dice coefficient was employed to analyze the similarity in the distribution of BMs from adenocarcinoma and non-adenocarcinoma, and two-sample t-test was performed respectively using SPM and Dpabi software to ensure the consistency of the result. For brain regions with the number of BMs greater than or equal to 4, the voxels with a size 2 mm × 2 mm × 2 mm were counted. Results:Non-adenocarcinoma tended to invade the posterior lobe of the cerebellum, precuneus, anterior lobe of the cerebellum, cuneus, middle occipital gyrus, and middle temporal gyrus, with corresponding voxel counts of 2 577, 2 291, 1 947, 1 550, 1 200, and 600, respectively. In contrast, adenocarcinoma was more commonly metastasized to the inferior parietal lobule, posterior lobe of the cerebellum, central frontal gyrus, precentral gyrus, middle temporal gyrus, and precuneus, with the corresponding voxel counts of 211, 201, 194, 186, 137, and 84, respectively.Conclusion:Brain metastases exhibit different distributions between adenocarcinoma and non-adenocarcinoma, and both subtypes prefer to invade specific brain regions.
