OBJECTIVE To analyze the influential factors for clinical efficacy of polymyxin B combined with other antibiotics in the treatment of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) pulmonary infection. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of patients with CRAB pulmonary infection in our hospital from May 2021 to October 2024. Information such as age, gender, admitting department, infection status, underlying medical conditions, mechanical ventilation time, combination anti-infective treatment regimens, and the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE-Ⅱ) score 24 h before medication was compiled. Based on the effectiveness of the treatment, patients were divided into treatment-effective group and treatment-ineffective group. Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were employed to identify independent factors influencing clinical efficacy. RESULTS A total of 156 patients were included, and 108 patients were treated effectively, with an effective rate of 69.23%. The results of univariate analysis indicated that there were statistically significant differences between 2 groups in terms of the duration of mechanical ventilation time, APACHE-Ⅱ score 24 h before medication, the number of complication types, the proportion of abnormal coagulation function, anti-infective treatment course, and hospital stay before medication (P<0.05). The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that APACHE-Ⅱ score≥15 points 24 h before medication [OR=2.965, 95%CI (1.284, 6.845), P=0.020], mechanical 20251606) ventilation time≥10 d [OR=3.577, 95%CI (1.185, 10.793), P=0.037] and hospital stay≥14 d before medication [OR=2.422, 95%CI (1.036, 5.654), P=0.041] were independent 15120420253@139.com risk factors, and anti-infective treatment course>7 d was a protective factor [OR=0.445, 95%CI (0.221, 0.895), P=0.043]. CONCLUSIONS This study shows that the effective rate of polymyxin B combined with other antibiotics in the treatment of CRAB pulmonary infection is less than 70%. The mechanical ventilation time≥10 d, APACHE-Ⅱ score≥15 points 24 h before medication, and hospital stay≥14 d before medication may lead to treatment failure, whereas anti-infective treatment course>7 d may be associated with treatment success.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the clinical characteristics and influential factors of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in children caused by intravenous azithromycin. METHODS Clinical data of 157 DILI pediatric cases caused by intravenous azithromycin, reported by the Hengshui Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring Center from January 2015 to January 2025, were collected as the observation group. Clinical data of pediatric patients who received intravenous azithromycin but did not develop DILI during the same period at Hengshui People’s Hospital were collected in a 1∶1 ratio to serve as the control group. The clinical classification, severity and prognosis of DILI in pediatric patients from the observation group were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to screen the independent risk factors for DILI in children caused by intravenous azithromycin. RESULTS Among 157 DILI cases, 92 cases (58.60%) had hepatocellular injury-type, 51 cases (32.48%) had cholestatic-type, and 14 cases (8.92%) had mixed-type. DILI severity was grade 1 in 117 cases (74.52%), grade 2 in 33 cases (21.02%), and grade 3 in 7 cases (4.46%). Liver function had all recovered after stopping medication and symptomatic treatment. Combined with acetaminophen [OR=3.769, 95%CI (1.615, 8.235), P=0.021], daily dose of azithromycin>10 mg/kg [OR= 2.237, 95%CI (1.075, 4.655), P=0.034] were independent risk factors for DILI in children caused by intravenous azithromycin. CONCLUSIONS Hepatocellular injury-type and cholestatic-type are relatively common in children with DILI caused by intravenous azithromycin, with mild severity being predominant and showing a favorable prognosis. Combination with acetaminophen and daily dose>10 mg/kg are independent risk factors for azithromycin-induced DILI in children.

Objective:To assess the quality of low-keV monoenergetic images using deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) algorithm combined with dual energy CT (DECT) in gastric cancer and to compare them with images from the conventional adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASiR-V) algorithm.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, DECT images of 31 gastric cancer patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were prospectively collected from September 2022 to March 2023. The 55 keV monoenergy images were reconstructed using the DLIR algorithm at low-, medium-, and high-intensity levels (DLIR-L, DLIR-M, and DLIR-H) based on arterial phase and venous phase images, respectively. The 70 keV 40% mixing coefficient (ASiR-V40%) images were reconstructed using the ASiR-V algorithm. In the objective evaluation of images, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) for both lesions and muscle were calculated across four sets of reconstructed images. In the subjective evaluation of images, scores were assigned to the overall image quality, lesion visibility, and diagnostic confidence for each set of reconstructed images. Comparisons of SNR and CNR between the 4 groups were made by One-way repeated-measures ANOVA or Friedman′s test. Comparisons of scores were made by Friedman′s test. The P value of pairwise comparison was adjusted using Bonferroni correction methods. Results:In the objective evaluations, CNR lesion, SNR lesion and SNR muscle were highest on the 55 keV DLIR-H images in the arterial and venous phases, and showed a gradually increasing trend on the 70 keV ASiR-V40%, 55 keV DLIR-L, DLIR-M, DLIR-H images ( P<0.05). In subjective evaluations, compared to the 70 keV ASiR-V40% images, overall image quality scores were numerically higher for the 55 keV DLIR-H ( P>0.05), similar or slightly worse for the 55 keV DLIR-M, and significantly lower for the 55 keV DLIR-L ( P<0.05). The lesion visibility and diagnostic confidence on the 55 keV DLIR reconstruction images were higher in both arterial and venous phases than 70 keV ASiR-V40% images ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared to the conventional 70 keV ASiR-V40% images, the 55 keV DLIR-H images had higher lesion contrast and diagnostic confidence with lower image noise. The 55 keV DLIR-M images had comparable overall image quality to 70 keV ASiR-V40% images, but the former had higher lesion contrast and diagnostic confidence. The 55 keV DLIR-L was unable to improve image quality to the level of 70 keV ASiR-V40%.

Objective:
To understand the level of health literacy and influencing factors of Chinese general high school students, so as to provide scientific evidence for health promotion of high school students.
Methods:
A multistage stratified cluster sampling method was used to conduct an on site survey on the health literacy status of 8 265 high school students in 31 provinces of China by using the National Health Literacy Monitoring Questionnaire from October 2018 to June 2019. SPSS 25.0 software was used to conduct one way test and multifactor Logistic regression analysis of different demographic characteristics.
Results:
The health literacy level of Chinese general high school students was 7.1%; the three dimensions of literacy were ranked in descending order as follows: basic skills (21.3%), healthy lifestyles and behaviors (20.5%), and basic knowledge and concepts of health (7.8%); and the literacy levels of the six categories of health issues, in descending order, were basic medical care (88.3%), health information (75.9%), safety and first aid (51.0%), infectious disease prevention (44.2%), scientific health concept (39.0%) and chronic disease prevention (5.5%). Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis showed that ethnicity, region, family residence, school type, grade level, and father s education were the factors influencing the health literacy level of Chinese high school students( OR=2.08, 0.60/0.24, 0.44, 0.71, 1.41 /0.51, 1.37, P <0.05).
Conclusions
The overall health literacy level of Chinese high school students is low,ethnicity, region, family residence, school type, grade level and father s education are factors influencing the health literacy level of Chinese high school students. It is recommended that all departments at all levels focus on categorized governance to improve the health literacy level of high school students, taking into account the realities and characteristics of high school students health literacy level.

Objective:To compare 3D-printing-assisted surgery and conventional surgery in the treatment of Schazker type Ⅵ tibial plateau fractures.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 50 patients with type Ⅵ tibial plateau fracture who had been treated from January 2019 to December 2021 at the 5 Departments of Orthopedics in The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, The First People's Hospital of Jiujiang, Pingkuang General Hospital, Ganzhou People's Hospital, and Nanchang Hongdu Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to their different treatment methods. In the 3D printing group of 25 cases treated by 3D-printing-assisted surgery, there were 14 males and 11 females, with an age of (42.5±9.1) years; in the conventional group of 25 cases treated by conventional surgery, there were 13 males and 12 females with an age of (42.2±9.3) years. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, fracture healing time, postoperative complications, the Rasmussen radiological scores and the American Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee function scores at 6 and 12 months after operation.Results:There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, indicating comparability ( P>0.05). The operation time [(125.4±10.6) min], intraoperative blood loss [(206.2±16.3) mL], intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency [(9.2±2.7) times] and fracture healing time [(3.0±0.7) months] in the 3D printing group were all significantly less than those in the conventional group [(168.2±14.1) min, (303.2±20.4) mL, (15.5±3.5) times and (4.1±0.8) months] while the Rasmussen radiological scores (17.6±1.2 and 17.9±0.6) and HSS knee scores (90.8±6.4 and 91.5±5.6) at 6 and 12 months after operation in the 3D printing group were all significantly higher than those in the conventional group (16.2±2.6 and 16.7±2.2; 84.5±9.2 and 87.6±8.0) (all P<0.05). In the 3D printing group, there were 1 case of wound infection and 1 case of wound dehiscence after operation. In the conventional group, there were 2 cases of wound skin necrosis, 3 cases of wound dehiscence, 1 case of traumatic arthritis, 2 cases of wound infection, and 1 case of screw loosening. The incidence of complications in the 3D printing group (8.0%, 2/28) was significantly lower than that in the conventional group (36.0%, 9/25) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of Schatzker type VI tibial plateau fractures, compared with conventional surgery, 3D-printing-assisted surgery can lead to better curative outcomes, because it is conducive to lowering surgical difficulty, reducing postoperative complications, and promoting fracture union and functional recovery of the knee.
