Objective:To analyze the risk factors for 6-month prognosis of traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 133 patients with TSCI who had been admitted to Department of Orthopaedics, The First Hospital Affiliated to Jinan University from January 2017 to August 2021. The patients with TSCI were categorized into an improved group ( n=82) and a non-improved group ( n=51) according to the improvements in the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) grading between admission and 6 months after injury. To identify the risk factors that might affect the prognosis of TSCI patients at 6 months after injury, univariate and logistic regression analyses were conducted of indicators such as gender, age, length of MRI spinal cord signal change, maximum canal compromise (MCC), maximum spinal cord compression (MSCC), brain and spinal cord injury center(BASIC)score, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) within 3 days after injury, ASIA grading within 3 days after injury, mean arterial pressure (MAP) at 3 days after operation, and presence of complications. Results:The univariate analysis showed significant differences between the improved and non-improved groups in length of MRI spinal cord signal change, MCC, MSCC, BASIC, NLR within 3 days after injury, ASIA grading within 3 days after injury, MAP at 3 days after operation, and presence of complications (all P<0.05). The logistic regression analysis showed that NLR ( OR=0.463, 95% CI: 0.287 to 0.748, P=0.002) and ASIA grading ( OR=11.684, 95% CI: 1.684 to 81.086, P=0.013) within 3 days after injury, as well as MAP at 3 days after operation ( OR=2.224, 95% CI: 1.306 to 3.787, P=0.003), were risk factors affecting the 6-month prognosis in TSCI patients. Conclusion:The NLR and ASIA grading within 3 days after injury, and MAP at 3 days after operation are risk factors that may affect the prognosis of TSCI patients at 6 months after injury.

Objective: Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is one of the most common types of kidney disease, and kidney transplantation is the most effective treatment for end-stage renal disease. This study aims to analyze the clinical curative effect of renal transplantation for adults with IgAN and to discuss the efficacy and safety of kidney transplantation for IgAN at the perioperative period and medium- and long-term follow-up. Methods: This retrospective study included the clinical and follow-up data of 81 adult patients with IgAN who underwent kidney transplantation at the Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University from January 2018 to January 2022. Of the 81 patients whose age at (34.1±9.9) years old, 47 (58.0%) were male. The body mass index was (20.8±3.2) kg/m2, and the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) mismatch number was 3.5±1.2. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and daily 24-hour urine output for the recipients on the 1st, 5th, and 7th day after kidney transplantation and when they were discharged were analyzed. The recovery of the transplanted kidney and occurrence of complications were comprehensively evaluated. The eGFR, urinary protein, and occult blood were evaluated at the 6th, 12th, 24th, 36th, and 48th month and at the last follow-up. Results: The follow-up time was (25.7±15.8) months. No primary non-function occurred in any patient during the perioperative period time. Fifty-one (63.0%) patients had immediate graft function recovery, and 16 (19.8%) patients had slow graft function recovery. Delayed recovery of graft function was observed in 14 (17.3%) patients. A total of 19 perioperative complications occurred, including 9 patients with acute rejection, 5 patients with urinary fistula, 1 thrombosis in both lower limbs, and 4 lymphatic fistula. The eGFR at 6th, 12th, 24th, 36th, and 48th month of follow-up were (65.3±22.9), (67.6±23.0), (64.3±21.8), (65.9± 24.7), and (68.7±31.2) mL/(min·1.73 m2), respectively. The eGFR remained high during the medium- and long-term follow-ups. At the longest follow-up of 56 months, eGFR fluctuation was still mild, and the positive rate of urine protein and occult blood was low. IgAN recurred in 4 transplanted kidneys, accounting for 4.94% of the total patients, without severe renal insufficiency. Three patients had kidney dysfunction due to severe pneumonia, rejection, and stone in the transplanted kidney. The overall survival rate of the transplanted kidney was higher than 95%, and the survival rate of all patients was 100% till Januray 2022. Conclusion: Renal transplantation for adults with IgAN had a remarkable short-term effect. The recipients can be beneficial significantly to favorable midium- and long-term outcomes. IgAN recurrence is infrequent and rarely causes severe renal function damage.

ObjectiveTo investigate the pollution level of deoxynivalenol (DON) in wheat flour and its products sold in Shanghai, and to assess the health risks of DON exposure for residents in Shanghai who ingested DON from wheat flour and its products. MethodsRisk monitoring data of DON in wheat flour and its products sold in Shanghai from 2017 to 2021 were combined with the consumption data of wheat flour and its products by Shanghai residents. A probabilistic assessment method was used to assess dietary exposure of DON in wheat flour and its products. ResultsThe overall detection rate of DON in wheat flour and its products was 77.3% (1 041/1 347), with a mean concentration of 226.3 μg·kg-1, P50 of 130.0 μg·kg-1 and a maximum value of 3 080.0 μg·kg-1. The mean daily exposure and 95th percentile daily exposure (by body weight) of DON from wheat flour and its products in Shanghai residents were 0.279 μg·kg-1 and 1.146 μg·kg, accounting for 27.9% and 114.6% of the daily tolerable intake of DON TDI, 1 μg·kg, respectively. The probability assessment results indicated that 6.1% of the whole population in Shanghai had DON exposure exceeding the TDI value. Among them, 12.8% of the population aged 6 years old and below, 16.4% of the population aged between 7 and 17 years old, 3.9% of the population aged between 18 and 59 years old and 3.2% of the population aged 60 years old and above exceeded the TDI value for daily DON exposure through wheat flour and its products. ConclusionCertain populations in Shanghai may face certain health risks from daily DON intake wheat flour and its products. Special attention should be paid to the health risk of daily DON exposure through wheat flour and its products for individuals age below 18 years old .

ObjectiveTo assess the health risk of dietary exposure to nonylphenol in infants aged 0-36 months through infant formula in Shanghai. MethodsA monitoring of nonylphenol pollution in infant formula was conducted in 2022. A total of 90 samples were obtained from maternal and infant stores, supermarkets, and online stores in Shanghai. Based on the daily consumption data of infant formula, a point assessment method was used to assess the dietary exposure to nonylphenol in infant formula. ResultsThe prevalence of nonylphenol in infant formula retailed in Shanghai was 95.6% (86/90). The amount of nonylphenol varied from non-detected to 22.70 μg·kg-1, with the mean value of 8.47 μg·kg-1 and the P50 value of 7.77 μg·kg-1. The mean daily nonylphenol exposure (estimated by body weight) from infant formula in infants aged 0-6 months, 7-12 months and 13-36 months in Shanghai was 0.091, 0.068 and 0.054 μg·kg-1, respectively; furthermore, the P95 value of daily exposure (by body weight) was 0.228, 0.152 and 0.119 μg·kg-1, respectively. These amounts were much lower than the tolerable daily intake (TDI) of nonylphenol (by body weight 5 μg·kg-1). ConclusionThe health risk of daliy nonylphenol intake from infant formula remains low among infants aged 0-36 months in Shanghai.

ObjectiveTo investigate the value of MELD 3.0, MELD, and MELD-Na scores in assessing the 90-day prognosis of patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) through a comparative study. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 605 patients with ACLF who were treated in Tianjin Third Central Hospital, The Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital, and Beijing YouAn Hospital from November 2012 to June 2019, and according to the 90-day follow-up results after admission, they were divided into survival group with 392 patients and death group with 213 patients. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, the area under the ROC curve (AUC), net reclassification improvement (NRI), integrated discrimination improvement (IDI), and decision curve analysis (DCA) curve were used to investigate the value of MELD 3.0, MELD, and MELD-Na scores at baseline, day 3, week 1, and week 2 in predicting the prognosis of the disease. ResultsAt day 3 and week 1, MELD 3.0 score had an AUC of 0.775 and 0.808, respectively, with a better AUC than MELD score (P<0.05). At day 3, week 1, and week 2, MELD 3.0 score showed an NRI of 0.125, 0.100, and 0.081, respectively, compared with MELD in predicting the prognosis of ACLF patients, as well as an NRI of 0.093, 0.140, and 0.204, respectively, compared with MELD-Na score in predicting prognosis. At baseline, day 3, week 1, and week 2, MELD 3.0 showed an IDI of 0.011, 0.025, 0.017, and 0.013, respectively, compared with MELD in predicting the prognosis of ACLF patients. At day 3 and week 2, MELD 3.0 showed an IDI of 0.027 and 0.038, respectively, compared with MELD-Na in predicting the prognosis of ACLF patients. All the above NRIs and IDIs were >0, indicating a positive improvement (all P<0.05). DCA curves showed that MELD 3.0 was superior to MELD at day 3 and was significantly superior to MELD-Na at week 2. There was no significant difference in the ability of the three scores in predicting the prognosis of ACLF patients with different types, and there was also no significant difference in the ability of the three scores in predicting the prognosis of ACLF patients with the etiology of HBV infection, alcohol, or HBV infection combined with alcohol, while MELD 3.0 was superior to MELD for ACLF patients with other etiologies (P<0.05). ConclusionMELD 3.0 score is better than MELD and MELD-Na scores in predicting the 90-day survival of patients with ACLF, but with limited superiority.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of adult donor dual kidney transplantation.Methods:Retrospective analysis of case data of 13 adult donor kidney dual kidney transplantation (DKT) performed in the The Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from September 2016 to December 2020. For 13 donors, the average age and BMI were (53.5±12.4)years and (24.3±2.8) kg/m 2, respectively. Their mean Serum creatinine (SCr) at admission and before procurement was (132.9±54.1)and (228.7±112.4)μmol/L, respectively. 3 of them had diabetes mellitus history, and 8 had hypertension history. 11 met the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) DKT criteria and 6 met Remuzzi score DKT criteria. For 13 recipients, the average age and BMI were (39.3±8.9)years and (20.2±2.4)kg/m 2, respectively. All of them received ABO blood type-matched kidney transplants. 2 of them had their grafts transplanted in the bilateral iliac. In 12 cases, the grafts filled rapidly and urinated immediately when opening blood flow. In 1 case, the grafts were dark in color and vascular showed weak pulsation after opening blood flow. The time to recovery of perioperative graft function (from the day of surgery to the natural reduction of SCr to the normal range 44-133μmol/L), the occurrence of delayed graft function (DGF), acute rejection (AR), ureteral and surgical incision complications, as well as the recipients’ final follow-up SCr, eGFR, urinary protein, and grafts outcome were observed. Risk factors affecting outcomes were assessed by univariate logistic regression analysis. Results:The SCr dropped to the normal range at discharge in 10 recipients, and the average recovery time was (13.8±13.0) days. In other 3 cases SCr at discharge were 300.0, 149.0, 152.5μmol/L. 4 cases had DGF, 4 had AR, 1 experienced urinary fistula, and 1 experienced incisional dehiscence, which were treated with anti-rejection, J-tube implantation, continuous catheterization to maintain bladder void, secondary suturing, respectively. The follow-up time ranged from 4 to 54 months, with a median of 28(15.5, 31.0) months. At the final follow-up time, 10 cases had good graft function, 2 suffered impaired kidney function, and 1 experienced graft failure. The average SCr and eGFR except for graft failure patient were (144.2±101.3)μmol/L and (52.9±21.2)ml/min, respectively. 4 had positive urine protein. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that donor age, BMI, history of diabetes mellitus and hypertension, and SCr were not significantly correlated with recipients’ DGF and graft impairment ( P>0.05), and due to the small sample size, multifactorial logistic regression analysis was not performed. Conclusion:The short to medium-term effects of adult donor DKT coule be safe and feasible.

Objective:To evaluate the development of hypothermia after spinal anesthesia and risk factors.Methods:Patients undergoing spinal anesthesia in the anesthesia preparation room of our hospital from April 2020 to April 2021 were included. The temperature of the tympanic membrane was measured before spinal anesthesia and immediately after anesthesia and at 5, 10 and 15 min after anesthesia. Patients with tympanic membrane temperature<36 ℃ at any time point were considered as having hypothermia and included in hypothermia group and patients with membrane temperature ≥ 36 ℃ were considered as having no hypothermia and included in non-hypothermia group. The patients′ demographic data, highest anesthesia plane, puncture space of spinal anesthesia, types of anesthetics, preoperative fasting time, and surgical sites were recorded. The multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the risk factors for hypothermia.Results:A total of 196 patients were finally enrolled. The body temperature was significantly decreased at 5 and 10 min after anesthesia compared with the baseline body temperature before anesthesia and immediately after anesthesia ( P<0.001), and the incidence of hypothermia was 10.2%. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that female and high anesthesia plane were independent risk factors for hypothermia, and higher baseline body temperature was an independent protective factor for hypothermia ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Body temperature decreases at 5-10 min after spinal anesthesia, and the occurrence of hypothermia is not a small probability event in the patients undergoing spinal anesthesia; female and higher anesthesia plane are risk factors and higher baseline body temperature is the protective factor.

Objective:To describe the characteristics and change trends of incidence, mortality and disease burden of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Qingdao from 2014 to 2020.Methods:We analyzed the incidence data of AMI retrieved from Qingdao Chronic Diseases Surveillance System. The average annual percent change (AAPC) of morbidity and mortality of AMI were evaluated by using Joinpoint log-linear regression model. Disability adjusted life year (DALY) was used to estimate disease burden of AMI in Qingdao.Results:A total of 70 491 AMI cases and 50 832 deaths of AMI occurred in Qingdao from 2014 to 2020. The age-standardized morbidity and mortality were 54.71/100 000 and 36.55/100 000, respectively. During 2014-2020, the AAPC of age-standardized morbidity was 2.86% (95% CI: 0.42%-5.35%), and 4.30% (95% CI: 1.24%-7.45%) in men and 0.78% (95% CI: -0.89%-2.47%) in women, respectively. The log-linear regression model showed that age-standardized morbidity in age groups 30-39, 40-49 years increased rapidly, with the AAPCs of 8.92% (95% CI: 2.23%-16.06%) and 6.32% (95% CI: 3.30%-9.44%), respectively. The trend was also observed in age groups 30-39, 40-49 and 50-59 years in men, with the AAPCs of 11.25% (95% CI: 3.54%-19.54%), 6.73% (95% CI: 2.63%-10.99%) and 6.72% (95% CI: 2.98%-10.60%), respectively. There was no significant change in age-standardized mortality. The DALY rate increased from 7.49/1 000 in 2014 to 8.61/1 000 in 2020, with the AAPC of 1.97% (95% CI: 0.36%-3.60%). Conclusions:The age-standardized morbidity of AMI in men increased in Qingdao, especially in those aged 30-49 years, while age-standardized mortality rate of AMI was relatively stable from 2014 to 2020. The burden of disease of AMI increased in both men and women.

ObjectiveTo investigate chlorate contamination level in infant formula sold in Shanghai, and to evaluate the dietary exposure risk to infants in Shanghai. MethodsWith the risk monitoring data of chlorate in infant formula sold in Shanghai in 2020, combined with the dietary consumption data of infants, the dietary exposure of chlorate in infant formula was assessed via the point assessment method. ResultsIn 2020, the overall detection rate of chlorate in 120 infant formula samples was 98.3% (118/120), the mean content was 124.5 μg⋅kg-1, the 50 percentile value was 64.6 μg⋅kg-1, and the maximum value was 1 475.0 μg⋅kg-1. The mean and 95 percentile value of daily chlorate intake from infant formula for infants aged 0‒36 months in Shanghai were 1.10 and 1.84 μg⋅kg-1, accounting for 36.7% and 61.3% of the tolerable daily intake (TDI) of chlorate (3μg⋅kg-1), respectively. The mean, 50 percentile value and 95 percentile value of daily chlorate exposure of infants in different month-age groups (0‒6 months, 6‒12 months, 12‒36 months) through infant formula were lower than the TDI value. ConclusionThe health risk of daily chlorate intake from infant formula for infants and young children aged 0‒36 months in Shanghai is at an acceptable level.
