ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between the non-fasting triglyceride and glucose (TyG) index and hyperglycemia in pregnancy during the third trimester in high altitudes. MethodsThis study selected clinical and laboratory data of 774 Tibetan singleton pregnant women who delivered at Chaya People's Hospital of Qamdo city in Xizang autonomous region, from January 2023 to April 2025. The non-fasting TyG index was calculated from non-fasting triglyceride (TG) and random plasma glucose (PG). Based on the tertiles of the non-fasting TyG index values, the individuals were split into three groups (corresponding to non-fasting TyG index of 8.89 and 9.21, respectively). The baseline clinical characteristics, lipid levels and the occurrence of developing hyperglycemia in pregnancy were compared among the three groups. Statistical analyses were performed using ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Chi-square test, or Fisher exact test and the relationship between the non-fasting TyG index and hyperglycemia in pregnancy were examined using multivariate logistic regression models and curve fitting. ResultsA total of 774 Tibetan singleton pregnant women were included, with a average age of 27.3 ± 6.1 years, a pre-delivery body mass index (Pre-BMI) of (25.2±2.3)kg/m2 , a proportion of 26.7% (207/774) primigravid women, the mean non-fasting TyG index was 9.1 ± 0.4。Thirty pregnant women were diagnosed with hyperglycemia in pregnancy, with a detection rate of 3.9% (30/774). Statistically significant differences in serum total cholesterol (TC), TG, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were identified when comparing different non-fasting TyG groups (all P values <0.05). Subsequent trend test analysis indicated that the levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, and PG gradually increased with elevated the non-fasting TyG index ( Ftrend TC=95.61, P<0.001; Ftrend TG=1 051.91, P<0.001; Ftrend LDL-C = 97.20, P < 0.001; Ftrend TG=195.20; P<0.001). After adjustment for maternal age, pre-delivery BMI, altitude, TC, LDL-C, and HDL-C, multivariate Logistic regression models revealed independent positive associations between non-fasting TyG index and hyperglycemia in pregnancy (Model 1: OR=2.72, 95% CI: 1.13-6.53, P=0.026; Model 2: OR=2.56, 95% CI: 1.01-6.50, P=0.048; Model 3: OR=2.72, 95% CI: 1.06-6.97, P=0.037; Model 4: OR=4.02, 95% CI: 1.42-11.40, P=0.009) and the incident of hyperglycemia in pregnancy showed an increasing tendency as increasing with the non-fasting TyG index, however, this association did not statistical significance (P trend >0.05). Curve fitting by restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to assess linearity between non-fasting TyG and hyperglycemia in pregnancy, and there was a linear dose-response relationship between non-fasting TyG and hyperglycemia in pregnancy (P for non-linear = 0.515). ConclusionNon-fasting TyG index in the third trimester is a risk factor for hyperglycemia in pregnancy among the Tibetan singleton pregnant women at high altitudes and there was a possible linear dose-response relationship between the non-fasting TyG index and hyperglycemia in pregnancy.

Objective:
To investigate the influencing factors for vaccination willingness of herpes zoster vaccine (HZV) among the elderly, so as to provide the basis for improving the HZV vaccination strategy for the elderly.
Methods:
From July 2023 to June 2024, permanent residents aged ≥60 years in Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province were selected using the multistage random sampling method and probability proportionate to size sampling method. Basic information, disease history, awareness of herpes zoster (HZ) and HZV, vaccination history, and vaccination willingness of HZV were collected through questionnaire surveys. Multivariable logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for vaccination willingness of HZV among the elderly.
Results:
Totally 1 209 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 95.95%. The respondents included 657 males (54.34%) and 552 females (45.66%). Among them, 626 (51.78%) individuals were aged 60 -<70 years. There were 113 individuals had vaccination willingness of HZV, with a vaccination willingness rate of 9.35%. The multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that female (OR=2.872, 95%CI: 1.624-5.080), urban (OR=4.909, 95%CI: 2.732-8.818), individual monthly income of 1 000-<2 000 yuan (OR=3.085, 95%CI: 1.602-5.940), accessibility of vaccination clinics (OR=5.717, 95%CI: 1.109-29.462), presence of chronic diseases (OR=2.423, 95%CI: 1.325-4.431), history of varicella infection (OR=2.114, 95%CI: 1.213-3.684), awareness of HZ (OR=2.194, 95%CI: 1.096-4.394), awareness of HZV (OR=3.562, 95%CI: 2.005-6.330), history of influenza vaccine vaccination (OR=7.833, 95%CI: 4.189-14.645), and history of 23-valent pneumococcal vaccine vaccination (OR=2.955, 95%CI: 1.603-5.449) were promoting factors for vaccination willingness of HZV.
Conclusion
The vaccination willingness rate of HZV among the elderly is relatively low, which is mainly affected by factors such as gender, residence, individual monthly income, accessibility of vaccination clinics, presence of chronic diseases, history of varicella infection, awareness of HZ and HZV, and history of influenza vaccine and 23-valent pneumococcal vaccine vaccination.

Objective:To evaluate early residual myocardial ischemia after successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with coronary artery disease by using myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and investigate independent influencing factors of early residual myocardial ischemia.Methods:From January 2020 to December 2022, 127 patients (107 males, 20 females; age (60.3±9.6) years) with coronary artery disease who underwent PCI complete revascularization at the First People′s Hospital of Changzhou were consecutively enrolled prospectively. All patients underwent rest and stress MPI within 1-3 months after PCI. Reversible myocardial perfusion defect in the blood supply area of the culprit vessels in stress and rest MPI was defined as early residual myocardial ischemia after PCI. Accordingly, the culprit vessels undergoing PCI were divided into residual ischemic group and non-ischemic group. Differences of cardiovascular examination between two groups were compared ( χ2 test), such as proportion of culprit vessels with severe stenosis (≥90%), proportion of bifurcation lesions, and proportion of diffuse coronary disease. Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify influencing factors for early residual myocardial ischemia. Results:Among 148 culprit vessels undergoing PCI in 127 patients, early residual myocardial ischemia was present in 49 vessels (33.1%, 49/148). The proportion of culprit vessels with severe stenosis before PCI in residual ischemia group was higher than that in non-ischemia group (69.4%(34/49) and 49.5%(49/99); χ2=5.27, P=0.022). The proportion of bifurcation lesions in residual ischemic group was also higher than that in non-ischemic group (28.6%(14/49) and 10.1%(10/99); χ2=8.23, P=0.004), with a slightly higher proportion of diffuse coronary disease compared to non-ischemic group (14.3%(7/49) and 4.0%(4/99); χ2=3.62, P=0.057). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that bifurcation lesion (odds ratio ( OR)=4.087, 95% CI: 1.615-10.344, P=0.003) and diffuse coronary disease ( OR=4.208, 95% CI: 1.115-15.878, P=0.034) were independent influencing factors for early residual myocardial ischemia. Conclusions:Early residual myocardial ischemia is still present in about 1/3 of the culprit vessels after PCI complete revascularization. Bifurcation lesion and diffuse coronary disease are independent influencing factors for early residual myocardial ischemia in culprit vessels.

Objective:To analyze the bacteria spectrum and antimicrobial resistance profile of bacterial meningitis among children in Baoji.Methods:Based on the acute meningeal and encephalitis syndrome surveillance project, cerebrospinal fluid samples were collected from 774 cases of bacterial meningitis in Baoji Municipal Maternal and Health Hospital from January 2016 to December 2023. Bacterial culture and drug sensitivity test were carried out.Results:A total of 105 positive strains were isolated with the detection rate of 13.57% (105/774). Among them, gram-positive strains accounted for 80.00% (84/105), mainly including Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus hominis, and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Gram-negative bacteria accounted for 20.00% (21/105), and the predominant strain was Escherichia coli. Pathogenic bacteria were detected in every month of the year, with two peaks in March and September (26.67%, 28/105). The youngest was infected 20 min after birth, and the oldest was nine years old. There were statistical differences in the detection rates among different age groups (χ 2=35.91, P<0.05). The positive rate in the toddler group was lower than that in the infant group, the pre-school age group and the school age group, respectively (χ 2=15.01, 7.09, and 10.08; all P<0.05). There was no statistical difference between the toddler group and the neonate group (χ 2=1.60, P>0.05). The strains detected in the neonate group accounted for 44.76% (47/105), mainly including Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus epidermidis; the strains in the infant group accounted for 26.67% (28/105), mainly including Streptococcus pneumoniae; the strains in the toddler group accounted for 3.81% (4/105), mainly including Staphylococcus epidermidis; the strains in the pre-school age accounted for 11.43% (12/105), mainly including Staphylococcus epidermidis; the strains in the school age group accounted for 13.33% (14/105), mainly including Streptococcus pneumoniae. The results of drug sensitivity test showed that the resistance rates of Staphylococcus epidermidis to ampicillin/sulbactam, clindamycin, and levofloxacin were 47.06% (8/17), 41.18% (7/17), and 23.53% (4/17), respectively. Staphylococcus epidermidis strains were sensitive to vancomycin and linezolid. All of the Streptococcus pneumoniae strains were resistant to erythromycin and clindamycin, but sensitive to vancomycin and linezolid. The resistance rate of Streptococcus pneumoniae to penicillin was 69.23% (9/13). The resistance rates of Escherichia coli to ampicillin, levofloxacin, ceftriaxone, and cefotaxime were 66.67% (8/12), 41.67% (5/12), 33.33% (4/12), and 41.67% (5/12), respectively, but they were sensitive to ampicillin/sulbactam, cefoperazone/sulbactam, amikacin, and meropenem. Streptococcus agalactis strains were sensitive to penicillin, linezolid, and vancomycin, but resistant to erythromycin, clindamycin, ampicillin, and levofloxacin. Conclusions:The main pathogens causing bacterial meningitis in Baoji city are Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Escherichia coli. The distribution of bacteria is varied in different age groups. The diagnosis and treatment of bacterial meningitis should be made based on the bacterial spectrum characteristics and the results of antimicrobial resistance profile.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To estimate tissue/organ doses and effective dose to operators in the overexposure incident during an interventional procedure using Monte Carlo method.Methods:The phantoms were constructed for both the operators and the patient based on the adult mesh-type reference computational phantoms (MRCPs) recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) Publication 145 and phantom deformation technology. Models of exposure scenario were constructed based on the on-site equipment and the irradiation conditions. The Monte Carlod simulation method was used to evaluate the absorbed dose to critical tissues and organs, such as the operator′s eye lens and thyroid, as well as the effective dose.Results:In the particular exposure conditions, the maximum absorbed doses in the primary organs of the two operators were in the left eye lens, with doses of 1.216 and 0.223 mGy, respectively. The thyroid absorbed doses were 0.074 and 0.019 mGy, while the effective doses to the two operators were 0.088 and 0.021 mSv, respectively. The reduction rates of effective dose for the two operators when wearing lead aprons and lead thyroid collars were 67.16% and 78.79%, respectively.Conclusions:The combination of Monte Carlo method and MRCPs can be used to restore a specific irradiation scenario to a high degree and to estimate the physical dose of to the irradiated persons.
