Objective:To analyze clinical and genetic characteristics of congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism(CHH) in children.Methods:Clinical data of 0-18 year old CHH patients diagnosed in the Department of Endocrinology, Genetics and Metabolism of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including their hormone levels and genetic test results.Results:A total of 95 patients with CHH were included. Among them, 25 were diagnosed before the age of 3, 37 between the ages of 3-14, and 33 were over 14 years old at the time of first diagnosis. The primary manifestations were micropenis(95 cases, 100%) and cryptorchidism(46 cases, 48.5%). The incidence of cryptorchidism was the lowest in the group over 14 years of age. Hormonal analysis revealed that the peak levels of LH following statin B and GnRH stimulation, the peak levels of FSH after GnRH stimulation, and testosterone levels following hCG stimulation were the highest in the infant group. Genetic analysis identified 20 CHH-related genes in 61 out of 77 cases.Double-gene mutation accounted for 7.8%(6/77) and triple-gene mutation accounted for 3.9%(3/77). The most common mutations were FGFR1(18/77, 23.4%), CHD7(12/77, 15.6%), PROKR2(11/77, 14.3%) and ANOS1(6/77, 7.8%). The incidence of cryptorchidism in these four genotypes was 50%, 75%, 45.5% and 83.3%, respectively. The incidence of testicular dysfunction was 22.2%, 16.7%, 27.3%, and 16.7%, respectively, with no statistical significance.Conclusion:The primary manifestation of CHH is micropenis and cryptorchidism. In children with CHH, the incidence of testicular Leydig cell and Sertoli cell dysfunction increased with age in CHH children. FGFR1, CHD7, PROKR2 and ANOS1 were common variants of CHH.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of overweight, obesity and central obesity among elderly residents in Xuhui District, and to analyze the epidemiological status of central obesity in elderly people with different body mass indexes. MethodsThe third round of health status and health service utilization monitoring data in Xuhui District was used. The information collected from questionnaire survey and physical examination were analyzed. SPSS 20.0 software was used for χ2 test, trend χ2 test and multinominal logistic regression analysis. Results5 096 survey subjects were included. The prevalence of overweight, general obesity, and central obesity in the residents aged 60 and above in Xuhui District were 34.3%, 6.5%, and 29.2%, respectively. There was gender difference in the rates of overweight, obesity, and central obesity among the residents. The overweight and central obesity rates in males were higher than those in females, while the obesity rate was lower than that in females (P<0.05). Multinominal logistic regression analysis showed that in comparison with the normal weight non-central obesity group drinking only at party (OR=1.729, 95%CI: 1.184‒2.525), and hypertension (OR=1.637, 95%CI: 1.305‒2.053), were highly associated with normal weight with central obesity. Aged 60‒ years (OR=1.589, 95%CI: 1.190‒2.120), aged 70‒ years (OR=1.763, 95%CI: 1.327‒2.342), male (OR=1.379, 95%CI: 1.134‒1.676), hypertension (OR=2.231, 95%CI: 1.878‒2.649), former smokers (OR=1.437, 95%CI: 1.027‒2.011), drinking at party only (OR=1.491, 95%CI: 1.107‒2.006), and drinking ≥3 times per week (OR=1.611, 95%CI: 1.116‒2.325), were highly associated with overweight combined with central obesity. Aged 60‒ years (OR=3.817, 95%CI: 2.251‒6.474), aged 70‒ years (OR=3.084, 95%CI: 1.838‒5.175), hypertension (OR=3.683, 95%CI: 2.753‒4.929), diabetes (OR=2.085, 95%CI: 1.511‒2.878), former smokers (OR=1.835, 95%CI: 1.043‒3.226), were highly associated with compound obesity. Central obesity was found in the elderly residents with different BMI categories, and the rate of central obesity increased with the increase of BMI grade. ConclusionThe prevalence of overweight, obesity and central obesity among the elderly aged 60 years and above in Xuhui District is not optimistic. Attention should be paid to the elderly under 80 years old who are with hypertension and/or diabetes, alcohol consumption, low educational level and not doing physical exercise. Especially for the central obesity population with normal BMI, measures should be taken to prevent and intervene the occurrence of obesity and related diseases.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between diaphragmatic-rapid shallow breathing index (D-RSBI) and lung ultrasound score (LUS) in elderly patients with mechanical ventilation and its predictive value for weaning results.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted. The clinical data of elderly patients (age > 60 years old) with invasive positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) admitted to the department of intensive care unit (ICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University from January 2021 to June 2022 were enrolled. According to the outcome of withdrawal, the patients were divided into successful and failed groups. The differences in gender, age, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ), D-RSBI and LUS before weaning and extubation were compared between the two groups. Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between D-RSBI and LUS. The predictive value of D-RSBI and LUS on weaning results of elderly patients with IPPV was analyzed by receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve).Results:A total of 398 elderly patients with IPPV were enrolled, including 300 successful weaning patients and 98 failed weaning patients. There were no significant differences in gender and age between the failed group and successful group [male: 55.1% (54/98) vs. 59.0% (177/300), age (years old): 67.02±5.03 vs. 66.96±4.99, both P > 0.05]. APACHEⅡ score in the failed group was significantly higher than that in the successful group (17.09±3.30 vs. 16.06±3.81, P < 0.05), and the D-RSBI and LUS score before extubation were significantly higher than those in the successful group [D-RSBI (time·min -1·mm -1): 2.19±0.33 vs. 1.60±0.22, LUS: 17.30±3.04 vs. 11.97±3.20, both P < 0.01]. All patients showed a significant positive correlation between D-RSBI and LUS score ( r = 0.406, P = 0.000). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of D-RSBI for predicting weaning outcomes in elderly IPPV patients was 0.920, with a 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of 0.881-0.958 and P = 0.000. When the cut-off value was 1.85 times·min -1·mm -1, the sensitivity was 88.7% and the specificity was 86.7%. The AUC of LUS score for predicting weaning outcome in elderly IPPV patients was 0.875, with a 95% CI of 0.839-0.912 and P = 0.000. When the cut-off value was 14.50, the sensitivity was 75.7% and the specificity was 84.7%. Conclusion:There is a significant correlation between D-RSBI and LUS score in elderly mechanically ventilated patients, both of them can predict weaning outcome in elderly patients with mechanical ventilation.
