Objective: To report severe hemolytic adverse reactions caused by intravenous infusion of human immunoglobulin (IVIG) in a child, and to alert clinical staff to be aware of IVIG-associated hemolytic reactions to ensure transfusion safety in pediatric populations. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on a case of severe hemolytic reaction following high-dose IVIG infusion in a pediatric patient with severe pneumonia. Results: Following high-dose IVIG infusion, severe hemolytic adverse reactions developed, clinically manifesting as decreased hemoglobin, progressively elevated bilirubin and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and gradual hepatomegaly. IgG antibodies were detected in the patient's erythrocytes and plasma. Conclusion: When patients passively acquire IgG antibodies through IVIG infusion, timely monitoring of antibody titers in vivo is critical. For subsequent transfusions, red blood cell products that lack the corresponding antigens should be selected to mitigate hemolysis. Clinicians should remain vigilant against rare but severe hemolytic adverse reactions.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of viral hepatitis mortality and life loss among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023, and to provide a basis for related prevention and control work. Methods Viral hepatitis mortality data were obtained from the Pudong New Area mortality monitoring system. The crude mortality rate (CMR), standardized mortality rate (SMR), potential years of life lost (PYLL), average years of life lost (AYLL), and standardized potential years of life lost (SPYLL) were calculated to analyze viral hepatitis deaths. The average annual change (AAPC) and annual percentage change (APC) of the mortality rate were calculated by Joinpoint regression analysis to analyze the trend of mortality. Results The CMR and SMR of viral hepatitis among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023 were 3.89/100000 and 1.98/100000, respectively. Both CMR and SMR of viral hepatitis showed a decreasing trend over time (CMR:APC=-5.476, t=-13.581, P<0.001; SMR:APC=- 7.624, t= -21.253, P<0.001). The CMR for males was 4.75/100000 and the SMR for males was 2.65/100000; the CMR for females was 3.04/100000 and the SMR for females was 1.32/100000, with a higher mortality rate for males than for females(ZCME=12.094,P<0.001; ZSMR=-14.718,P<0.001). Deaths were concentrated in the age groups of 45-64 years old and 65 years old and above, accounting for 91.62% of the total deaths. The PYLL of deaths due to viral hepatitis among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023 was 26912 person-years, with a PYLLR of 0.45% and an AYLL of 8.88 years per person. Conclusion The mortality rate of viral hepatitis among the residents of Pudong New Area in 2003-2023 shows a decreasing trend over time. The mortality rate of males is higher than that of females, and the deaths of middle-aged and elderly people account for a large proportion of the total deaths. Chronic hepatitis B is the main cause of death.

Background The crude mortality rate of sudden death has shown a steady upward trend. Pudong New Area, Shanghai, is a highly urbanized and densely populated district that is substantially affected by the urban heat island effect and has experienced frequent extreme temperature events in recent years. However, evidence on the association between ambient temperatures and sudden death among local residents remains limited. Objective To examine the association between daily mean temperature and sudden death in Pudong New Area, and to provide evidence for reducing temperature-related risks of sudden death. Methods Data on sudden death, meteorological factors (daily average temperature, daily average relative humidity, and daily average air pressure), and air pollutants [inhalable particulate matter (PM10), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and nitrogen dioxide (NO2)] in Pudong New Area from 2016 to 2021 were collected. A distributed lag non-linear model was used to examine the associations of daily mean temperature with total sudden death and sudden death due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, including lagged and cumulative effects (lag0, 0-3, 0-7, 0-14, and 0-21 d). Stratified analyses were performed by sex, age, and education level to identify vulnerable populations. The temperature attributable burden of sudden death was assessed by calculating attributable number (AN) and attribute fraction (AF). Results A total of 19458 sudden deaths were reported in Pudong New Area from 2016 to 2021, of which 11082 (56.95%) were due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Both low (P5, 4.6 ℃) and high (P95, 30.2 ℃) temperatures were associated with increased risks of sudden death. The cumulative risks associated with low temperature peaked at lag 0-21 d for both total sudden death and sudden death due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. In contrast, the cumulative risks associated with high temperature peaked at lag 0-7 d for total sudden death and at lag 0-3 d for sudden death due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Stratified analyses showed that females, individuals aged ≥65 years, and those with primary school education or below were more sensitive to low temperature; whereas females, individuals aged <65 years, and those with secondary school education or above were more sensitive to high temperature. Using 21.5 ℃ as the minimum mortality temperature, the AN of total sudden deaths attributable to non-optimal temperature was 3791 (95%CI: 1853, 5587), with an AF of 20.41% (95%CI: 9.47%, 28.94%); the AN attributable to low temperature was 3358 (95%CI: 1087, 5062), with an AF of 17.26% (95%CI: 5.89%, 26.01%), whereas the AN attributable to high temperature was 225 (95%CI: −274, 655), with an AF of 2.03% (95%CI: −2.53%, 5.78%). For sudden deaths due to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, the AN attributable to non-optimal temperature was 2721 (95%CI: 1747, 5575), with an AF of 24.55% (95%CI: 9.59%, 28.65%); the AN attributable to low temperature was 2496 (95%CI: 988, 3562), with an AF of 22.53% (95%CI: 8.97%, 32.41%), whereas the AN attributable to high temperature was 614 (95%CI: −15, 1176), with an AF of 3.15% (95%CI: −0.08%, 6.02%). Conclusions Both low (P5, 4.6 ℃) and high (P95, 30.2 ℃) temperatures are associated with increased risks of sudden death in Pudong New Area, Shanghai. High temperature shows a relative short-term effect, whereas low temperature shows a stronger cumulative effect. Females, people ≥65 years, and individuals with primary school educational attainment or below are more vulnerable to low temperature, while females, people <65 years, and those with secondary school educational attainment or above are more vulnerable to high temperature. The attributable burden of low temperature is greater than that of high temperature. Targeted health protection measures should be strengthened for vulnerable populations during extreme temperature events.

Objective:To explore the impact of plant and animal dietary behaviors on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in older adults aged ≥65 in 18 longevity areas of China.Methods:The subjects were 5 223 older adults over 65 years old from the Healthy Ageing and Biomarkers Cohort Study (HABCS) in 18 longevity areas in China. Through a questionnaire survey and physical examination, information about their demographic characteristics, lifestyles, daily activities, self-health status, current diseases, and fasting venous blood were collected. Food Frequency and Questionnaire (FFQ) was used to collect data on food intake frequency. Based on the prior method, the plant-based diet index (PDI) and animal-based diet index (ADI) of 5 223 older adults were calculated. Subjects were divided into three groups (low-level group: PDI<39 or ADI<31, middle-level group: 39≤PDI≤42 or 31≤ADI≤34, high-level group: PDI>42 or ADI>34) by tertiles of PDI and ADI. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the association between PDI and ADI and the risk of T2DM.Results:The average age of 5 223 subjects was (84.8±11.5) years, with the median ( Q1, Q3) of PDI about 41(38, 43) and the median ( Q1, Q3) of ADI about 33 (30, 35). The prevalence rate of T2DM was 16.41% (857/5 223). After adjusting for covariates, multivariate logistic regression showed that PDI was negatively associated with T2DM. Compared with the low-level group, the OR (95% CI) for T2DM in the high-level group was 0.83 (0.69-0.99). ADI was positively associated with T2DM, and compared with the low-level group, the OR (95% CI) for T2DM in the high-level group was 1.28 (1.06-1.55). For every one-point increase in PDI and ADI, the risk of T2DM decreased by 2% and increased by 3%, respectively, with the OR (95% CI) of 0.98 (0.96-1.00) and 1.03 (1.01-1.06), respectively. Conclusion:In Chinese older adults ≥65 years in 18 longevity areas, higher adherence to the plant-based behavior may be negatively associated with the risk of T2DM, while higher adherence to the animal-based behavior may be positively associated with the risk of T2DM.

Objective:To evaluate a transhiatal tunnel flap designed to reconstruct the cardiac functional structure in proximal gastric cancer patients in our center.Methods:A descriptive case study method was used to select the data of 11 patients undergoing surgery for upper gastric cancer from Jan to Jul 2024. After laparoscopic dissection is completed, the esophagus is transected 2 cm from the upper edge of the tumor and the specimen is removed. The distance from the lower edge of the tumor is 5 cm. The cutting width is 4 cm, and the length of sleeve distal stump stomach is 20 cm. A seromuscular flap tunnel was made with a length of 2 cm and a width of 2 cm, 2 cm away from the top of the remnant stomach. The digestive tract was reconstructed using the Overlap hybridization method.Results:The median operation time was 175 (139-285) minutes. The median muscle flap production time and reconstruction time was 10.5 (5.5-21.0) minutes and 15.0 (11.8-33.6) minutes, respectively. The median blood loss is 50 (20-100) ml. The median postoperative hospitalization was 8 (6-25) days. The median tumor size was 2.5 (1.0-4.0) cm, and 31 (15-52) lymph nodes were dissected. The median follow-up after surgery was 3.5 (0.7-6.0) months, and no tumor recurrence or metastasis was found. Postoperative anastomotic leakage (Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ) occurred in one case, and there was no perioperative death. The Visick score of the whole group was 1 point in 8 cases and 2 points in 3 cases, and there was no anastomotic stenosis. Reflux esophagitis (Los Angeles classification grade B) was found in 1 case after gastroscopy, and the symptoms were relieved by conservative treatment.Conclusion:The transhiatal tunnel flap arthroplasty method has high surgical safety, low reconstruction difficulty, and an reliable anti-reflux effect.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection in pediatric recipients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Methods:Clinical data of children who underwent first allo-HSCT were retrospectively analyzed from March 2017 to November 2024. A total of 259 pediatric allo-HSCT recipients were analyzed through comparing HCMV infection group (n=115) and Non-HCMV infection group (n=144). Clinical characteristics were compared, and risk factors for HCMV infection were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression.Results:The result of univariate analysis showed that adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), length of hospitalization, duration of antiviral therapy, and bacterial infection were significantly associated with HCMV infection in pediatric allo-HSCT recipients ( P<0.05). The result of multivariate analysis showed that ALD was an independent protective factor against HCMV infection of allo-HSCT recipients ( P<0.05) [OR=0.22, 95% CI: 0.06-0.86], while umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) was an independent risk factor for HCMV infection in allo-HSCT recipients ( P<0.05) [OR=6.13, 95% CI: 1.34-28.04]. When the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for predicting post-transplant relapse based on HCMV viral load was 0.75 (95% CI: 0.55-0.94, P=0.014) and at the cutoff value of 3×10 3 copies/ml, the sensitivity and specificity for predicting relapse were 81.13% and 66.67%, respectively. Conclusions:HCMV infection in pediatric allo-HSCT recipients may lead to longer hospitalization and increased risk of relapse.
