From June 2002 to December 2023, there were 5 patients with criss-cross hearts admitted to the General Hospital of Northern Theater Command, including 3 males and 2 females, aged 1.5 to 25 years, and weighing 13-49 kg. There were 5 patients of atrioventricular position, 3 patients of right ventricular loop, 2 patients of left ventricular loop, 3 patients of normal atrioventricular connection, and 2 patients of inconsistent connection. Combined intracardiac malformations: 1 patient of simple ventricular septal defect combined with pulmonary hypertension, 1 patient of corrected transposition of the great arteries combined with ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, and pulmonary artery stenosis, 1 patient of corrected transposition of the great arteries combined with ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, and left atrioventricular valve insufficiency, and 2 patients of right ventricular double outlet combined with ventricular septal defect and pulmonary artery stenosis. The surgical methods included 2 patients of intracardiac anatomical correction, 1 patient of bidirectional vena cava pulmonary artery anastomosis, and 2 patients of total extracardiac ductal cava pulmonary artery anastomosis. All 5 patients were discharged smoothly.

As the brain's resident immune cells, microglia perform crucial functions such as phagocytosis, neuronal network maintenance, and injury restoration by adopting various phenotypes. Dynamic imaging of these phenotypes is essential for accessing brain diseases and therapeutic responses. Although numerous probes are available for imaging pro-inflammatory microglia, no PET tracers have been developed specifically to visualize anti-inflammatory microglia. In this study, we present an ¹⁸F-labeled PET tracer (QTFT) that targets the P2Y₁₂, a receptor highly expressed on anti-inflammatory microglia. [¹⁸F]QTFT exhibited high binding affinity to the P2Y₁₂ (14.43 nmol/L) and superior blood-brain barrier permeability compared to other candidates. Micro-PET imaging in IL-4-induced neuroinflammation models showed higher [¹⁸F]QTFT uptake in lesions compared to the contralateral normal brain tissues. Importantly, this specific uptake could be blocked by QTFT or a P2Y₁₂ antagonist. Furthermore, [¹⁸F]QTFT visualized brain lesions in mouse models of epilepsy, glioma, and aging by targeting the aberrantly expressed P2Y₁₂ in anti-inflammatory microglia. In a pilot clinical study, [¹⁸F]QTFT successfully located epileptic foci, showing enhanced radioactive signals in a patient with epilepsy. Collectively, these studies suggest that [¹⁸F]QTFT could serve as a valuable diagnostic tool for imaging various brain disorders by targeting P2Y₁₂ overexpressed in anti-inflammatory microglia.

ObjectiveTo investigate the recurrence of ischemic stroke (IS) and to analyze the association between four indices of total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and triglycerides (TG) and the risk of IS recurrence by analyzing the follow-up data related to IS in the community-based natural population of Songjiang District, Shanghai, so as to provide a scientific basis for improving the prognosis of stroke patients in the community and controlling IS recurrence. MethodsA prospective follow-up study was conducted among the IS patients in the community-based cohort population, collecting data about patient’s age, gender, disease history, biochemical indicators, and etc. Cox regression model and restricted cubic spline model were used to analyze the relationship between different levels of plasma lipids and the recurrence of IS in these patients. ResultsA total of 1 368 patients with IS were included. The total follow-up duration was 7 171.46 person-years, with a median follow-up time of 6.24 years. There were 420 cases of IS recurrence, resulting in a cumulative recurrence rate of 30.70%. The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the recurrence risk of IS was reduced when the baseline TC and LDL-C levels of IS patients were in the ranges of 4.65‒5.67 mmol·L^-1 and 2.52‒3.46 mmol·L^-1, respectively. The results of restricted cubic spline analysis showed a U-shaped relationship between baseline TC and LDL-C levels and the recurrence risk in IS patients. ConclusionThe cumulative recurrence rate of patients with IS in the community of Songjiang District in Shanghai is high, and the levels of TC and LDL-C at baseline survey are correlated with the recurrence of IS in these patients. It is suggested to pay more attention to the levels of LDL-C and TC in patients with IS, so as to improve the prognosis.

Objective To explore the current status of penile erection hardness and its influencing factors in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia.Methods From January to December 2024,450 patients with non-obstructive azoospermia were surveyed at the Reproductive Medicine Center of Hospital.A self-made general information questionnaire was used to collect their demographic data.The Erectile Hardness Scale(EHS)was employed to investigate the current status of their penile erection hardness,and a self-made questionnaire was utilized to explore the influencing factors.Results Among the 450 patients with non-obstructive azoospermia,during sexual intercourse,35.3%of the patients reported that their penile erection hardness could reach grade 4(normal state),54.5%reported that it only reached grade 3(sub-optimal state),9.3%reported that it only reached grade 2(slight penile erection),and 0.9%reported that it only reached grade 1(inability to achieve an erection).In the survey of satisfaction with sexual life quality,among the 450 patients,only 24.9%were very satisfied with their sexual life quality;57.3%were basically satisfied;9.6%considered it average;4.0%were dissatisfied;3.1%were very dissatisfied;and 1.1%had no sexual life.alcohol consumption(OR=2.393,95%CI:1.493～3.836),satisfaction with the quality of sexual life(OR=1.455,95%CI:1.118～1.894),educational attainment(OR=0.709,95%CI:0.549～0.917),and the sleep quality in the past month(OR=0.641,95%CI:0.452～0.907).Conclusions Clinical studies have shown that factors such as drinking habits,sexual life satisfaction,sleep quality,and educational attainment collectively influence the penile erection hardness in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia.Therefore,the medical team needs to customize personalized intervention plans and educational materials based on individual differences among patients.Through psychological counseling and lifestyle guidance,they can improve erectile function and the quality of sexual life,promote harmonious marital relationships,and enhance the overall life experience of the patients.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens isolated from the children with bloodstream infection in pediatric intensive care unit(PICU)so as to provide guidance for empirical clinical treatment of infections.METHODS Based on the Pediatric Intensive Care Database(PIC,http://pic.nbscn.org),the etiological data were collected from the PICU children of Children's Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine by R software in 2010-2019 and were retrospectively analyzed.The species,distribution and drug resist-ance of the pathogens isolated from the children were observed.RESULTS Totally 991 strains of pathogens were isolated,727(73.36％)of which were gram-positive bacteria,213(21.49％)were gram-negative bacteria,and 51(5.15％)were fungi.Staphylococcus epidermidis(320 strains,32.29％)was the predominant species of the gram-positive bacteria,followed by Staphylococcus hominis(118 strains,11.91％),Staphylococcus capitis(55 strains,5.55％)and Enterococcus faecium(Group D,33 strains,3.33％);Klebsiella pneumoniae(59 strains,5.95％),Escherichia coli(58 strains,5.85％),Acinetobacter baumannii(25 strains,2.52％)and Pseudo-monas aeruginosa(18 strains,1.82％)were the major species of gram-negative bacteria.The analysis of drug re-sistance showed that the gram-positive bacteria were generally resistant to β lactams and maintained sensitive to vancomycin and linezolid;the gram-negative bacteria showed high drug resistance rates,especially,A.baumannii and P.aeruginosa,showed multi-drug resistance.CONCLUSIONS The gram-positive bacteria are dominant among the pathogens isolated from the PICU children with bloodstream infections.The empirical treatment should be performed based on the distribution and drug resistance data of the pathogens,and sensitive drugs should be cho-sen for optimization of the treatment regimen.

Objective:To evaluate the short-term efficacy of surgical treatment for severe pulmonary stenosis(PS) in infants and young children, and to clarify the impact of different surgical timings on the efficacy of PS treatment.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 24 infants and young children who underwent surgical treatment for severe PS at the General Hospital of Northern Theater Command, PLA, from January 1, 2020, to October 1, 2024. Among them, 13 were males and 11 were females. The average weight of the patients was(9.2±3.6) kg, the average gestational age was(39.3±1.7) weeks, and the average age was(15.0±13.5) months. Preoperative clinical symptoms and signs(e.g., cyanosis, shortness of breath), transpulmonary valve pressure gradient(TPVPG), right ventricular systolic pressure(RVSP), and Em/Am were recorded. The patients were divided into two groups based on surgical timing: the infant group(under 1 year old, n=12) and the toddler group(1-3 years old, n=12).Results:There were no deaths among all patients. The postoperative ICU stay was significantly longer in the infant group compared to the toddler group( P<0.05). Compared to preoperative values, surgical treatment significantly improved TPVPG, reduced RVSP, and enhanced right ventricular diastolic function, which stabilized by 3 months postoperatively( P<0.05). Intergroup comparisons revealed that the infant group had significantly lower TPVPG at 6 months postoperatively compared to the toddler group. Additionally, right ventricular diastolic function improved significantly in the infant group postoperatively, while no significant improvement was observed in the toddler group. Younger age and reduced right ventricular diastolic function were identified as major risk factors for prolonged mechanical ventilation(>24 hours). Conclusion:Surgical treatment for PS during infancy and early childhood is safe and effective. Comprehensive preoperative evaluation is crucial, and early surgical intervention is recommended for patients with impaired right ventricular function to improve prognosis.

In recent years, surgical research has entered the digital era, and the dissemination of medical knowledge has also begun to confront the challenge posed by we media. When we media first emerged, most doctors in public hospitals, who focused on "medicine, education, and research", held a reserved attitude towards it. However, we media has demonstrated remarkable resilience and has continuously evolved to align with the trend of social development. Faced with the future development direction and the existing sore points, how surgeons comprehend and respond to the surging current of the times is a conundrum before us. In this article, the author has sorted out the rise and development of we media, the status of its application in the medical field, and the predicaments faced by medical we media, and has looked forward to its development to broaden the thinking of surgeons for more comprehensive innovation and development.
