Objective:To improve the understanding of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with pulmonary cryptococcosis.Methods:The clinical data of 1 DLBCL patient with pulmonary cryptococcosis in the Central Hospital of Fengxian District of Shanghai in May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:This 75-year-old female patient was asymptomatic after 2 cycles of R-CHOP chemotherapy. The high-resolution CT of lung showed that lung nodules were progressively enlarged. Antibacterial treatment was ineffective. Pulmonary cryptococcosis was confirmed by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) targeted high-throughput sequencing (tNGS) and cryptococcus capsular antigen (CrAg) detection. The central nervous system was not involved. And the long-term adequate-dose fluconazole was prescribed for 6 months, and the treatment against lymphoma was given synchronously. The lung nodule lesions reduced after antifungal therapy for 1 month. The lung nodules disappeared after the follow-up of 6 months after completion of final chemotherapy. The evaluation of lymphoma indicated complete remission.Conclusions:Pulmonary cryptococcosis occurs insidiously and shows no specific symptoms; its imaging manifestations are variable and routine anti-infection is ineffective. Immunochemotherapy for lymphoma patients is a high-risk factor for cryptococcal infection. tNGS and CrAg testing for BALF are effective methods of the confirmed diagnosis. The early and long-term adequate-dose antifungal treatment is the key to preventing the recurrence or progression.

Objectives:This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the strategies on COVID-19 outbreak control in Shenzhen, and to clarify the feasibility of these strategies in metropolitans that have high population density and strong mobility.Methods:The epidemic feature of COVID-19 was described by different phases and was used to observe the effectiveness of intervention. Hierarchical spot map was drawn to clarify the distribution and transmission risk of infection sources at different time points. The Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Asymptomatic-Recovered model was established to estimate case numbers without intervention and compare with the actual number of cases to determine the effect of intervention. The positive rate of the nucleic acid test was used to reflect the risk of human exposure. A survey on COVID-19 related knowledge, attitude and behaviors were used to estimate the abilities of personal protection and emergency response.Results:The epidemic of COVID-19 in Shenzhen experienced the rising, plateau and decline stage. The case number increased rapidly at the beginning, with short duration of peak period. Although the epidemic curve showed human-to-human transmission, the "trailing" was not obvious. From the spot map, during the intervention period, the source of infection was widely distributed. More cases and higher transmission risk were observed in areas with higher population density. After the effective intervention measures, both infection sources and the risk of transmission decreased. After compared with the estimated case numbers without intervention, actual number proved the COVID-19 control strategies were effective. The positive rate of nucleic acid test for high risk populations decreased and no new cases reported since February 16. Shenzhen citizens had high knowledge, attitude and behavior level, and high protection ability and emergency response.Conclusions:Although the response initiated by the health administration department played a key role at the early stage of the epidemic, it was not enough to contain the outbreak of COVID-19. The first-level emergency response initiated by provincial and municipal government was effective and ensured the start of work resumption after the Spring Festival. Metropolitans like Shenzhen can also achieve the goals of strategies and measures for containment and mitigation of COVID-19.

Objective To investigate the application of permissive hypercapnia in the thoraco-scopic surgery of neonates with congenital esophageal atresia.Methods Thirty newborns with con-genital esophageal atresia,seventeen males,thirteen females,aged 1-5 days,weighing 1.42-3.28 kg, ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,undergoing the thoracoscopic surgery,were randomly divided into group P and group C,n =1 5 in each group.The newborns were intratracheally intubated and adopted intravenous anesthesia combining inhalational anesthesia.FiO 2 100%,fresh gas flow 2 L/min,then adjusted the respirator parameters according to the results of airway pressure and arterial blood gas a-nalysis.Group P maintained PaCO 2 ranging at 60-80 mm Hg,group C maintained PaCO 2 ranging at 35-45 mm Hg.Arterial blood gas analysis was conducted respectively before artificial pneumothorax (T0 ),1 5 min after foundation of artificial pneumothorax (T1 ),30 min after foundation of artificial pneumothorax (T2 ),60 min after foundation of artificial pneumothorax (T3 )and 1 5 min after artifi-cial pneumothorax (T4 ).Two hours after surgery,a chest X ray photograph was taken to observe pneumothorax.The time from the end of the surgery to the ventilator weaning was recorded. Results At T1-T3 ,the PET CO 2 [(73.93 ± 3.53 )mm Hg vs.(41.53 ± 1.59 )mm Hg,(73.46 ± 3.04)mm Hg vs.(41.30±1.29)mm Hg,(74.13±2.85)mm Hg vs.(41.67 ±1.35)mm Hg]in group P were greatly higher than those in group C (P <0.05);the arterial blood pH value of group P (7.25±0.02 vs.7.38 ± 0.03,7.24 ± 0.01 vs.7.37 ± 0.03,7.25 ± 0.01 vs.7.38 ± 0.02 )were greatly lower than those in group C (P <0.05);PaCO 2 [(74.80±2.45)mm Hg vs.(41.93±1.39) mm Hg,(75.33±2.1 9)mm Hg vs.(42.01±1.31)mm Hg,(75.20±2.08)mm Hg vs.(42.13± 1.1 9)mm Hg ] were greatly higher than those in group C (P < 0.05 ).The incidence of pneumothorax of group P was obviously lower than that of group C (6.7% vs.40.0%,P <0.05 ). There was no statistically significant difference of the time from the end of surgery to the ventilator weaning [(3.6±0.6)d vs.(3.5 ±0.6)d]between the two groups.Conclusion Permissive hyper-capnia significantly reduces the incidence of pneumothorax in the thoracoscopic surgery of neonates with congenital esophageal atresia.Permissive hypercapnia (PaCO 2 60-80 mm Hg)can be safely ap-plied to the thoracoscopic surgery of neonates with congenital esophageal atresia.

Objective To investigate the value of partial hepatectomy and vascular resection in the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Methods Seventy four patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent hepatectomy of Chinese People' s Liberation Army from January 2008 through December 2011 were analyzed retrospectively.Results Of the 74 patients,33 underwent radical resection and 19 palliative resection,22 received internal or external drainage.In the radical resection group,the median survival time was 27 months,and the overall survival rate at 1,2 and 3 years were 79％,64％ and 49％.In the palliative resection group,the median survival time was 14 months and the overall survival rate at 1,2 and 3 years were 56％,25％,and 19％.In the drainage group,the median survival time was 9 months and the overall survival rate at 1,2 and 3 years were 23％,15％,0.Conclusions Hepatectomy combined with hilar vascular resection helps increase survival rate of patients in radical excision of hilar cholangiocarcinoma and Surgical resection is the most elective method for treatment of hepatic hilar cholangiocarcinoma,and the radical resection might improve the prognosis of the patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma.
