Objective This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial resistance profiles of bacterial strains isolated from pediatric intensive care units(PICU)in China for better antimicrobial therapy.Methods Clinical isolates were collected from 17 institutions,including tertiary care children's hospitals and pediatric department of tertiary general hospitals in China from January 1,2020 to December 31,2022.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out according to a unified protocol using Kirby-Bauer method or automated systems.Results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)in 2020.Results A total of 10 688 isolates were collected,including gram-positive organisms(39.2％)and gram-negative organisms(60.8％).The top three organisms were S.aureus(13.6％,1 453/10 688),A.baumannii(10.0％,1 067/10 688),and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(9.9％,1 058/10 688).Multi-drug resistant organisms(MDROs)were very common in children.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA),carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE),carbapenem-resistant E.coli,carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae(CRKP),carbapenem-resistant A.baumannii(CRAB),and carbapenem-resistant P.aeruginosa(CRPA)was 41.1％,19.4％,8.8％,30.9％,67.4％,and 28.8％,respectively.Overall,more than 50％of Enterobacteriales isolates were resistant to cephalosporins,while nearly 25％of Enterobacteriales isolates were resistant to carbapenems.MDROs were highly resistant to commonly used antibiotics.More than 80％of CRE and CRAB strains were resistant to all beta-lactam antibiotics.CRE and CRAB showed low resistance rates to tigecycline and polymyxin.CRPA showed lower resistance rates to piperacillin,beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations than the resistance rates to third and fourth generation cephalosporins.All of the Staphylococcus and Enterococcus isolates were susceptible to vancomycin and tigecycline.None of PRSP strains isolated from meningitis and nonmeningitis samples were resistant to rifampicin,vancomycin,or linezolid.The prevalence of β-lactamase-negative ampicillin-resistant(BLNAR)strains was 43.3％in Haemophilus influenzae.Conclusions MDROs were prevalent in PICU.It is necessary to establish an effective multidisciplinary team(MDT)to control the antimicrobial resistance.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) for treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and the factors affecting the prognosis.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. The clinical data of 51 patients with DLBCL who underwent auto-HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from March 2019 to January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into high-risk group (19 cases) and non-high-risk group (low-risk, low-moderate-risk and moderate-high-risk groups, 32 cases) based on different risk stratifications; patients were divided into the germinal center B-cell (GCB) group (29 cases) and non-GCB group (22 cases) based on different cellular origins; patients were divided into BEAM group (39 cases) and BeEAM group (12 cases) based on different conditioning regimens before auto-HSCT; patients were divided into auto-HSCT consolidation therapy group (41 cases) and auto-HSCT after relapsed/refractory group (10 cases) based on different transplantation timings. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis and log-rank was used for subgroup comparison.Results:All 51 patients achieved the hematopoietic reconstitution with no transplantation-related death within 100 d. Before auto-HSCT, 39 cases achieved complete remission and 12 cases (23.5%) achieved partial remission. After auto-HSCT, all cases achieved complete remission. Follow-up was until May 31, 2024, and the median follow-up time [ M ( Q1, Q3)] of 51 DLBCL patients was 33 (8, 43) months. After 51 DLBCL patients receiving auto-HSCT, 7 patients relapsed and 6 cases died including 3 cases with relapse-related death and 3 cases with non relapse-related death. The 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 78.5% (95% CI: 64.4%-92.6%) and 85.5% (95% CI: 73.2%-97.8%), respectively. The 3-year PFS rate was 94.7% (95% CI: 84.7%-104.7%) in the high-risk group, 82.2% (95% CI: 67.9%-96.5%) in the non-high-risk group, and the difference in the PFS was not statistically significant between the high-risk group and the non-high-risk group ( P = 0.158). The 3-year PFS rate was 80.1% (95% CI: 64.4%-95.8%) in the GCB group, 88.1% (95% CI: 72.3%-104.2%) in the non-GCB group, and the difference in PFS was not statistically significant between the 2 groups ( P = 0.803). The 3-year PFS rate was 84.9% (95% CI: 72.6%-97.2%) in BEAM group, 61.1% (95% CI: 25.0%-97.2%) in the BeEAM group, and the difference in PFS was not statistically significant between the 2 groups ( P = 0.106). The 3-year PFS rate was 85.4% (95% CI: 73.4%-97.4%) in the auto-HSCT consolidation therapy group, 64.3% (95% CI: 31.4%-96.4%) in the auto-HSCT after relapsed/refractory group, and the difference in PFS was not statistically significant between the 2 groups ( P = 0.171). Conclusions:auto-HSCT is an effective therapy method for DLBCL.

Objective:To investigate the stability and feasibility of using absorbable screws during Bernese periacetabular osteotomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on a 36 year-old woman diagnosed with developmental dysplasia of the hip, who had undergone Bernese periacetabular osteotomy. Finite element analysis was used to simulate the stability of the acetabulum under loads of 10%, 20%, 50%, and 100% of the patient's weight. The structural stiffness of the pelvis and the maximum equivalent stress on the absorbable screws were observed under different conditions, including whether the acetabular bone block and the ilium were in contact, whether 3 or 4 screws were used, and whether a graft (including fibular cortical bone and PEEK grafts) was used.Results:The structural stiffness of the pelvis fixed with four screws increased by 67%-94% compared to that with three screws. After using a graft, the structural stiffness of the pelvis increased by 50%-83%. As the load increased, the maximum equivalent stress on the screws also increased. When the acetabular bone block and the ilium had no contact, no graft was used, and only three screws were used for fixation, the maximum equivalent stress could reach 518.9 MPa, while this value dropped to 61% when four screws were used (318.7 MPa). When the acetabular bone block and the ilium were in contact, the maximum equivalent stress was about 12% of that when there was no contact, regardless of the number of screws used. When a cortical bone graft or a PEEK graft was used, the maximum equivalent stress could drop to 21%-26% of that without a graft. When the screw strength was 130 MPa, a load of 20% of body weight was applied, and only three screws were used without a graft, the equivalent stress could exceed the strength of the screw; if four screws were used, the equivalent stress was slightly higher than the strength of the screw when a load of 50% of body weight was applied. However, when a graft was used (either cortical bone or PEEK), even when a load of 100% of body weight was applied, the equivalent stress was slightly lower than the strength of the screw.Conclusion:Absorbable screws can provide sufficient stability for Bernese periacetabular osteotomy. The contact between the acetabular bone block and the ilium, an increase in the number of screws, and the use of grafts (cortical bone and PEEK grafts) can further improve stability. Therefore, absorbable screws have broad application prospects in Bernese periacetabular osteotomy.

Objective:To systematically retrieve, analyze and evaluate risk prediction models of postoperative urinary retention, so as to provide a basis for the application and optimization of the model.Methods:The research on the risk prediction model of postoperative urinary retention was electronically retrieved in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, China Biology Medicine disc and other databases. The language of the literature was Chinese or English. The search period was from database establishment to February 20, 2023. Two researchers independently conducted literature screening and data extraction, and independently evaluated the bias risk and applicability of the included literature using the Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool.Results:A total of 10 articles were included, including 17 risk prediction models for postoperative urinary retention. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 17 models were 0.700 to 0.920. The five most common predictors included in the model were age, gender, postoperative analgesia, diabetes, and operation time. The applicability of the model was good among the 10 studies, but there was some bias, mainly due to insufficient sample size, neglect of missing data and processing methods, overfitting issues, conversion of continuous variables into binary variables, and use of single factor screening for predictive factors.Conclusions:The risk prediction model of postoperative urinary retention has good prediction performance, but there is a certain risk of bias. The clinical value of the model needs further verification. External validation and continuous optimization are required for existing prediction models. Prospective research should also be carried out to develop a universal prediction model with good prediction performance, so as to provide an accurate and practical tool for clinical evaluation of postoperative urinary retention.

Objective:Anatomical study of the cross-donor flap pedicled with the peroneal artery and the discussion of the effect of clinical application, so as to describe a new method for the repair of large-area soft tissue defects in the foot and ankle.Methods:From June 2016 to August 2019, 12 specimens of adult lower limbs were studied. The popliteal arteries were perfused with perchloroethylene-ethyl acetate-lead oxide and red perchloroethylene-ethyl acetate. The origin, number, outer diameter, course and distribution of perforating branches of the peroneal artery were anatomically observed. The source, distribution and anastomosis of the skin nutrient vessels in the posterolateral area of the calf were also studied. Relationship of the blood supply between the peroneal arteries and veins and the nutritional vessels of the sural nerve were observed. In 9 patients, the peroneal artery and vein were designed as the pedicle of cross-donor flap in the repair of large soft tissue defects of foot and ankle. The patients were entered follow-up through outpatient visits and telephone interviews.Results:Among the 12 adult specimens of lower limbs, there were 65 perforating branches from the peroneal artery, 4-7 branches on each side, with an average of (5.41±1.00) branches. The diameter of the penetrating deep fascia was(1.07±0.36) mm. The perforator branches were mostly distributed in 3 sections of 4.0-11.0 cm, 16.0-21.0 cm and 24.0-27.0 cm away from the lateral malleolus, accounting for 48%, 24% and 17% of the total number of perforators, respectively. The outer diameters of the perforator vessels were (0.92±0.26)(0.56-1.68) mm, (1.32±0.38)(0.60-2.14) mm, and (0.98±0.28)(0.62-1.36) mm. The length of the pedicle of the perforator vessels were (3.91±0.96)(2.15-5.78) cm, (5.34±0.50)(4.01-5.85) cm, and (3.31±1.15)(2.16-5.66) cm. The perforating branches in the 3 sections appeared constantly. The diameter of the vessels was≥0.5 mm with an average length of at(4.19±1.16)(2.15-5.85) cm. The vascular network of the flap in the posterolateral area of the calf was mainly composed of subdermal vascular network and deep fascial vascular network. The deep fascia vascular network in the posterolateral area of the calf had 3 obvious longitudinal chains, including the medial sural neurotrophic vascular chain, the small saphenous vein-sural nerve communicating branch vascular chain and the lateral sural neurotrophic vascular chain, which took the nutrient blood supply from the perforating branches of the peroneal artery also formed a longitudinal and transverse anastomosis between the perforating branches of the peroneal artery. In the clinical trials performed on 9 patients, all soft tissue defects of foot and ankle were repaired. The composite tissue flap survived without infection or necrosis. The follow-up was lasted for 12 months to 3 years. The postoperative function and the donor site appearance were good and the patients walked normally. According to the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Association(AOFAS) foot scoring standard, the function of affected feet were evaluated. Five patients were excellent and 4 were good.Conclusion:The cross-donor flaps pedicled with peroneal arteries and veins has sufficient blood supply and a large area. It provides a method for the repair of large-area soft tissue defects in the foot and ankle.

Objective:To explore the pathogenic genes, clinical characteristics and treatment follow-up of children with congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS).Methods:Clinical data of 20 cases diagnosed with congenital LQTS and underwent gene testing from April 15, 2011 to April 15, 2021 in Department of Pediatric Cardiology, Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University were retrospectively collected and analyzed using independent sample t-test and Fisher′ s exact probability method. Results:LQTS-related gene mutations were detected in all the 20 cases, and pathogenic or suspected pathogenic mutations were identified in 18 cases (90.0%). Five LQTS mutation genes were discovered, including KCNQ1, KCNH2, SCN5A, CACNA1C and AKAP9.Eighteen cases (90.0%) had positive symptoms, and 13 cases (65.0%) had definite inducements.The inducement of symptoms in children with LQTS type 1(LQT1) was related to exercise, the causes of syncope in LQT1 and Jervell-Lange-Nielsen syndrome type 1 (JLNS1) with complex heterozygous mutations were exercise or emotional agitation; the causes of syncope in LQTS type 2 (LQT2) were unrelated to exercise; severe exercise in LQTS type 3 (LQT3) resulted in symptoms; and seizure in LQTS type 8 (LQT8) was non-induced.The corrected QT(QTc) interval of 20 cases was (553.1±66.6) ms, with a range of 460-707 ms, among which 17 cases showed QTc≥480 ms.The electrocardiogram(ECG) manifestations of children with various types of LQTS were different.There was no significant difference in QTc between different genders, or between children with syncope and those without syncope (all P>0.05). The follow-up time was (3.4±2.3) years, ranging from 0 to 8.3 years.Seventeen children received treatment[beta blockers and implantable cardiovertor-defibrillator(ICD)] and 3 cases did not.By the end of the follow-up, 1 child died, 19 cases survived, and 2 cases of the surviving children lost consciousness. Conclusions:There is a high consistency between genetic diagnosis and clinical diagnosis of congenital LQTS.The positive rate of gene detection is 90.0%.The clinical manifestations and ECG characteristics vary with genotypes.Beta blockers are protective.ICD therapy can prevent sudden cardiac death when oral medication does not respond.
