Objective To understand the epidemiological and genotypic characteristics of norovirus (NoV) in Jingzhou area,and to design primers and probes covering the variant genomes in the NoV gene library. Methods A total of 556 fecal samples were collected from suspected NoV patients from the First People's Hospital of Jingzhou from January 2022 to May 2023. The positive rate of NoV nucleic acid in fecal samples was detected by commercial kits. The differences in positive rates among different seasons and five age groups were statistically analyzed. Primers covering the NoV variant genome were designed to genotype some positive specimens. Results The detection rate of NoV nucleic acid in the tested samples was 30.04% (167/556). The detection rate in spring and winter was higher than that in summer and autumn (χ2=20.411,P<0.01). There were statistical differences in the positive rates among the five age groups of <1 year, 1-5 years, 6-10 years, 11-19 years, and >19 years (χ2=17.192,P<0.01), and the positive rate in young children (1~5 years old) was the highest (39.29%, 88/224). In addition, all the positive samples were NoV GII. Conclusion The epidemic situation of NoV is serious in winter and spring in Jingzhou area, with a high infection rate in young children (1-5 years old), and NoV GII is the main prevalent genotype. The primers designed in this study can be used for genotyping of NoV GI and GII.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and radiologic characteristics of children with congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT) in a single center.Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. According to inclusion and exclusion criteria, clinical data of 497 children(507 limbs) with CPT who were treated at Department of Orthopedics, the Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University from January 2011 to December 2020 were collected. Baseline data included gender, age at initial visit, age at onset of symptoms, accompanying symptoms, domicile, whether first treated at our hospital, and treatment-related information such as surgical or conservative treatment, surgical complications, etc., were extracted and analyzed using the health information system. Imaging data of the children, including Crawford classification, bilateral leg lengths, presence of fibular pseudarthrosis, and location of pseudarthrosis along the tibia segment, were analyzed using the Picture Archiving and Communication System. Data were compared using independent sample t test or χ2 tests. Results:Among 497 children with CPT, there were 305 males (61.4%) and 192 females (38.6%). The age at initial visit was (3.6±3.2) years (range: 0.1 to 16.2 years). Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) symptoms were positive in 340 children (68.4%), and negative in 157 children (31.6%). Among NF1-positive children, those with symptoms onset before 1 year of age were significantly more than NF1-negative children (74.1%(252/340) vs. 66.2%(104/157); χ2=9.24, P=0.001), and the proportion of fractures (92.9%,316/340) was significantly higher than that in the NF1-negative group (84.7%,133/157) ( χ2=8.33, P=0.004). According to imaging data, Crawford type Ⅳ was the most common type, with 321 limbs (63.3%), followed by type Ⅱ in 100 limbs (19.7%), type Ⅲ in 54 limbs (10.7%) and type Ⅰ in 32 limbs (6.3%). Pseudarthrosis occurred in the proximal third of the tibia in 14 limbs (2.8%), in the middle third in 185 limbs (36.5%), and in the distal third in 308 limbs (60.8%). Seventy-four children (14.9 %) had associated fibular pseudarthrosis. The lateral proximal tibial angle was 86.91°±5.21°(range: 72.17° to 102.08°), and the lateral distal tibial angle was 87.27°±10.73°(range: 51.07° to 128.17°). A total of 421 children (84.7%) underwent surgical treatment with (3.1±2.4) surgeries performed per child (range:0 to 12 surgeries); 76 children (15.3%) received conservative treatment. Postoperative complications mainly included ankle valgus (77 cases), leg length discrepancy (71 cases),refracture (48 cases), osteomyelitis (11 cases), and hardware failure (10 cases). NF1-positive children underwent more surgeries than NF1-negative children ((5.1±2.2)times vs.(2.1±1.8)times; t=14.93, P<0.01). Conclusions:Crawford type Ⅳ is the most common type of CPT in children in this study. CPT predominantly occurs in the middle or distal third of the tibia. The majority of children with CPT experienced symptoms and were seen at outpatient clinics before the age of 3 years. The main surgical complications currently associated with CPT treatment are ankle valgus and leg length discrepancy. Compared with CPT without NF1, children with NF1-positive CPT tend to have earlier symptom onset and may require more frequent treatments.

To understand the current situation of occupational burnout, turnover intention, and professional self-care among social workers under the context of epidemic prevention and control, and the role of professional self-care in the relationship between occupational burnout and turnover intention, this study investigated 1 066 social workers in Fujian Province with Professional Self-Care Practice Scale, and the Burnout Scale. SPSS 26.0 and its PROCESS plug-in analysis were used, the results showed that the proportion of social workers with moderate and severe occupational burnout accounted for 44.22% and 29.99% respectively, the proportion with turnover intention in the past year accounted for 25.67%, and the average score of professional self-care was (22.57±5.98) points. There was a significant positive correlation between occupational burnout and turnover intention (r=0.29, P<0.01). Professional self-care of social workers was significant negatively correlated with occupational burnout (r=-0.46, P<0.01) and turnover intention (r=-0.16, P<0.01). Professional self-care played a moderating role in the relationship between occupational burnout and turnover intention (β=-0.01, P<0.05). This paper indicated that social workers had a high degree of occupational burnout and turnover intention, low level of professional self-care under the context of epidemic prevention and control, and the attention should be paid to the protective role of professional self-care.

Conventional oxygen therapy (COT) is generally provided through a low flow rate device including a nasal cannula or facemask. Since the benefits of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy in adults with acute respiratory failure (ARF) have firstly been demonstrated by Roca et al and because of its effectivity and comfort and good compliance, it has shown greater advantageous than COT and it has been increasingly used in adults with mild to moderate ARF and obtained very nice therapeutic effect. However, because of the specificity of emergency environment and the more complexity of HFNC system than COT, the use of HFNC in department of emergency is still controversial. Since HFNC system delivers oxygen by high-flow rate, the dilution of inspired oxygen concentration (FiO2) by room air can be maximally decreased, and the system can provide the highest flow rate up to 60 L/min, being greater than the patients' peak inspiration flow flow (PIF); the high flow rate can dilute the carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the anatomical dead space, and the above several factors can guarantee that HFNC may deliver 0.21-1.00 relatively constant FiO2. Therefore, HFNC as a new noninvasive supplemental oxygen therapy has been increasingly widely studied and used in the adult patients with ARF. In this article, we will review the HFNC physiological effects and its advances in application for adult patients in department of emergency.
