Objectives:To report a novel mutation site in the pathogenic gene TTR of transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis(ATTR-CA),and to identify family members at risk,and provide suitable clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of the proband with ATTR-CA who visited the Department of Cardiology,the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in March 2021.The proband underwent whole exome sequencing using high-throughput methods to detect mutation genes.Sanger sequencing was used to test candidate pathogenic loci in suspected family members,and relevant literature was reviewed. Results:Among 51 individuals spanning 5 generations in the pedigree,10 family members(including the proband)carried the heterozygous TTR gene c.163A>G mutation,resulting in the amino acid residue at position 55 changing from lysine(Lys)to glutamic acid(Glu).This mutation follows an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern,with early onset in adulthood,rapid progression,and presenting as a mixed-type ATTR-CA.Five mutation carriers had different clinical manifestations,while the remaining 5 mutation carriers,who are at younger age,have not yet shown symptoms.Within the pedigree,7 individuals died(the proband's uncle[Ⅱ-1]who died from stroke at 65 years old,the rest 6 family members died from heart disease before the age of 50). Conclusions:According to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines,TTR gene Lys55Glu mutation is classified as likely pathogenic,this mutation site has not been reported in the literature before.Present study adds clinical evidence that might broaden the spectrum of TTR mutations.

Hemichorea associated with non-ketotic hyperglycemia(HC-NH)is a rare complication of diabetes mellitus. It is characterized by sudden and spontaneous non-repeating movements. Clinically, it presents as irregular dance-like movements in the distal parts of one limb, with unilateral involvement being more common and bilateral involvement being rare. Early diagnosis and treatment could improve the prognosis. We report a patient with hyperglycemia who developed bilateral involvement. It highlights the need to consider this condition in diabetic patients who present with secondary involuntary limb movements. Early treatment may lead to reversal of the symptoms.

Objective:To observe the clinical features of high myopia domed-shaped macula (DSM) complicated with choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and the efficacy of intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. A total of 23 eyes of 23 patients with high myopia DSM combined with CNV diagnosed by ophthalmology examination in Department of Ophthalmology of The Second People's Hospital of Foshan from January 2019 to December 2023 were included in the study.Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure, optical coherence tomography (OCT) were performed in all eyes. BCVA tests are performed using the international standard visual acuity chart, which was statistically converted to logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity. DSM height, central macular thickness (CMT) and choroidal thickness (ChT) were measured by OCT. According to OCT image features, DSM was divided into horizontal and vertical elliptic bulges and circular bulges. According to the literature standard, CNV was divided into subfoveal CNV and parafoveal CNV. All patients were treated with 0.05 ml intravitreal injection of ranibizumab or conbercept (IVR or IVC). The treatment regimen was 1+ on-demand treatment. The first IVR and IVC treatment were performed on 17 eyes and 6 eyes, respectively, and were divided into IVR group and IVC group. Follow-up time ≥1 month after treatment. The clinical features of the patients and the changes of BCVA, intraocular pressure, CMT and ChT after treatment were observed. Independent sample t test was used for comparison between groups. Results:There were 23 eyes in 23 cases, 7 males had 7 eyes and 16 females had 16 eyes. There were 11 and 12 eyes in the right and left eyes respectively. Age were (49±16) years old; logMAR BCVA was 0.94±0.39. Shapes of DSM were in 13 (56.52%, 13/23), 6 (26.09%, 6/23), and 4 (17.39%, 4/23) eyes, respectively. The dome height was (97.83±46.14) μm. CMT and ChT were (276.39±98.35) and (49.48±31.66) μm, respectively. There were 17 eyes in the IVR group, including 4 males and 13 females. There were 6 cases in the IVC group, 3 cases were male and 3 cases were female. At the last follow-up, logMAR BCVA and CMT were 0.60±0.39 and (209.96±71.38) μm, respectively. BCVA was significantly increased and CMT was significantly decreased compared with before treatment, with statistical significance ( t=2.98, 2.62; P=0.005, 0.010). One month after treatment and at the last follow-up, there were no significant differences in the degree of BCVA improvement ( t=1.47, 1.35), intraocular pressure change ( t=-0.20, -0.56) and ChT reduction thickness ( t=0.80, -0.62) between IVR group and IVC group ( P>0.05). At 1 month after treatment and last follow-up, the CMT of patients in IVR group and IVC group was decreased by (57.94±67.61), (83.17±78.37) μm and (13.33±9.73), (18.17±17.88) μm compared with that before treatment, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.64, 3.21; P<0.05). Conclusions:IVR or IVC in the treatment of high myopia DSM combined with CNV can effectively improve BCVA. The reduction of CMT with ranibizumab is better than conbercept.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of bladder volume on dosimetric parameters of clinical target volume (CTV) and organs at risk (OAR) of intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) for localized prostate cancer during the treatment planning and daily treatment.Methods:Clinical data of 25 patients with localized prostate cancer admitted to Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from November 2021 to June 2022 and enrolled in the "Proton Therapy System" (SAPT-PS-01) registered clinical trial were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were male and the median age was 72 years old. A total of 30 sets of IMPT plans were obtained. Based on the planning CT (30 sets) and weekly verification CT during treatment (172 sets), bladder volume, CTV and OAR dose parameters were collected. Spearman correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between bladder volume in CT and the dosimetric parameters of CTV and OAR during IMPT plans, and Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test was adopted to compare the dosimetric parameters of CTV and OAR among different bladder volume change groups.Results:The V 95% of CTV1 and CTV2 were both 100.0%±0.0% in IMPT plans. Bladder volume was significantly negatively correlated with D mean, V 70 Gy(RBE), V 60 Gy(RBE), V 50 Gy(RBE), V 40 Gy(RBE) of the bladder ( P<0.001, 0.003, <0.001, <0.001,<0.001), and D mean, V 50 Gy(RBE) of the small intestine (both P<0.001). During treatment, bladder D mean, V 70 Gy(RBE), V 60 Gy(RBE), V 50 Gy(RBE), V 40 Gy(RBE)( P<0.001, 0.001, <0.001, <0.001, <0.001), rectal D mean, V 50 Gy(RBE), V 40 Gy(RBE) (all P<0.001), small intestine D mean, V 50 Gy (RBE) (both P<0.001) of patients with bladder volume increase >20% compared to baseline were significantly decreased compared to those in IMPT plans. But CTV1 V 100%, and CTV2 V 95% were significantly decreased too( P=0.029, 0.020). In the bladder volume decreased>20% patients, the D mean, V 70 Gy(RBE), V 60 Gy(RBE), V 50 Gy(RBE), V 40 Gy(RBE) of the bladder were significantly increased compared to those in IMPT plans (all P<0.001). However, a bladder volume reduction of ≤20% and increase of ≤20% from baseline had no significant impact on CTV and OAR dosimetric parameters during treatment. Conclusions:For patients with localized prostate cancer undergoing proton therapy, a certain bladder volume should be ensured during planning CT scans. During the daily treatment, the bladder volume should be maintained between 80%-120% of the baseline level to ensure CTV coverage and good dose sparing to OAR.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2024;45(6):844-848
Objective:
To understand the prevalence of Lying Flat behaviors and its association with depressive symptoms among Chinese college students, so as to provide a scientific basis for promoting the physical and mental health development of adolescents.
Methods:
From July to October 2023, three universities were selected through convenient sampling from Jiangxi Province, Liaoning Province and Beijing City, respectively. Selfdesigned questionnaire links were distributed on campus to collect basic information and Lying Flat behaviors among college students, and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was utilized to screen for students with depressive symptoms. Finally, a total of 4 225 valid questionnaires were obtained. Chisquare was used to compare of report rates of Lying Flat behaviors across different demographic characteristics. Ordered Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the association between Lying Flat behaviors and depressive symptoms, with Z test used to assess variations in the strength of associations.
Results:
The reporting rates of academic, life, and social Lying Flat were 32.7%, 17.8% and 17.5%, respectively. And 6.7% of the participants were found of all three Lying Flat behaviors simultaneously.Among college students with three Lying Flat behaviors, the constituent ratios of no, mild, moderate and above depressive symptoms were 9.9%, 30.5% and 59.6%, respectively. Additionally, college students who had three Lying Flat behaviors were more likely to show mild, moderate and above depressive symptoms [OR(95%CI)=2.49(1.60-3.87), 7.69(5.01-11.79), P<0.01].
Conclusions
Academic Lying Flat behavior is most prevalent among college students. Academic, life and social Lying Flat behaviors are all significantly positively correlated with depressive symptoms. Attention should be paid to the Lying Flat behaviors and college students psychological health conditions to promote their physical and mental health development.

Objective:To study the current status of longitudinal extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) in extremely preterm infants (EPIs) and to develop a prediction model based on clinical data from multiple NICUs.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2018, EPIs admitted to 32 NICUs in North China were retrospectively studied. Their general conditions, nutritional support, complications during hospitalization and weight changes were reviewed. Weight loss between birth and discharge > 1SD was defined as longitudinal EUGR. The EPIs were assigned into longitudinal EUGR group and non-EUGR group and their nutritional support and weight changes were compared. The EPIs were randomly assigned into the training dataset and the validation dataset with a ratio of 7∶3. Univariate Cox regression analysis and multiple regression analysis were used in the training dataset to select the independent predictive factors. The best-fitting Nomogram model predicting longitudinal EUGR was established based on Akaike Information Criterion. The model was evaluated for discrimination efficacy, calibration and clinical decision curve analysis.Results:A total of 436 EPIs were included in this study, with a mean gestational age of (26.9±0.9) weeks and a birth weight of (989±171) g. The incidence of longitudinal EUGR was 82.3%(359/436). Seven variables (birth weight Z-score, weight loss, weight growth velocity, the proportion of breast milk ≥75% within 3 d before discharge, invasive mechanical ventilation ≥7 d, maternal antenatal corticosteroids use and bronchopulmonary dysplasia) were selected to establish the prediction model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the training dataset and the validation dataset were 0.870 (95% CI 0.820-0.920) and 0.879 (95% CI 0.815-0.942), suggesting good discrimination efficacy. The calibration curve indicated a good fit of the model ( P>0.05). The decision curve analysis showed positive net benefits at all thresholds. Conclusions:Currently, EPIs have a high incidence of longitudinal EUGR. The prediction model is helpful for early identification and intervention for EPIs with higher risks of longitudinal EUGR. It is necessary to expand the sample size and conduct prospective studies to optimize and validate the prediction model in the future.

ObjectiveTo investigate a suspected outbreak of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) nosocomial infection in an intensive care unit (ICU) and provide scientific evidence for prevention and control of multi-drug resistant nosocomial infection. MethodsClinical and epidemiological data of 4 patients with CRAB infection were retrospectively investigated in the ICU of Renji Hospital in November 2021. Environmental hygiene monitoring and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) were conducted and intervention measures were taken. ResultsA total of 4 cases with CRAB infection were identified, among which 1 case was determined to be community-acquired and3 cases were hospital-acquired. The isolated strains shared the same drug resistance, and were all classified into ST368 type. In the surface and hand samples (n=40), 2 CRAB strains were detected in the air filter beside the bed of the first case, with a detection rate of 5%. After adopting comprehensive prevention and control strategies, including environmental cleaning and disinfection, hand hygiene, staff management and training, and supervision, no similar case with CRAB infection was found. ConclusionThis suspected outbreak of CRAB nosocomial infection may be induced by inadequate environmental cleaning and disinfection, and inadequate implementation of hand hygiene. Timely identification, investigation, and targeted measures remain crucial to effective control of possible nosocomial infection.

ObjectiveTo understand the use of antibiotics in inpatients and the incidence and trend of hospital infections, to explore the implementation effect of comprehensive management measures, and to provide reference for hospitals to use antibiotics reasonably. MethodsBased on the hospital infection monitoring and management system, a retrospective analysis and comparison were conducted on the use of antibiotics, submission of microbial test samples, and incidence of hospital infections among inpatients in a tertiary hospital from 2012 to 2021. ResultsFrom 2012 to 2021, the use of antibiotics showed a downward trend, from 50.82% in 2012 to 41.29% in 2021. At the same time, the use rate of restricted and special antibiotics had also decreased, and the use rate of restricted and special antibiotics in patients without hospital infection was significantly lower than that in patients with hospital infection, and the microbial testing rate was also on the rise. The annual incidence rate of hospital infection was 0.69%‒1.92%, and the annual case-time prevalence rate was 0.79%‒2.17%. The annual average rate of the above two in 10 years was 1.18% and 1.34%, respectively. The results of the exponential smoothing model also showed that the utilization rate of antibiotics was decreasing and the incidence of nosocomial infection was stable. ConclusionLarge general hospitals took comprehensive management measures to strengthen the management of rational use of antibiotics, which led to a decline in the use rate of antibacterial drugs for inpatients and an increase in the rate of microbial examination. At the same time, the overall incidence of hospital infection was relatively stable, suggesting that the comprehensive management measures of antibacterial drugs in hospitals had achieved certain results. The current measures need to be optimized in the future to continuously improve the management level of rational use of antibacterial drugs.
