Objective To investigate the acceptance and satisfaction of tuberculosis prevention and control personnel in Beijing with the patient management system, and to provide a basis for further improving the patient management model. Methods A survey was conducted on the current usage, satisfaction, willingness to use and system improvement opinions of the patient management system among medical staff involved in the supervision and medication management of pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Beijing. Results A total of 360 medical staff participated in the survey. ^“Patient management^” was the function with the largest number of users, accounting for 96.94%. The proportion of users of each module who believed that the module's design met actual work needs was over 90%. About 94.44% of respondents believed that patient management systems facilitated the transfer and sharing of information between institutions. And 90.83% of respondents thought that the patient management system was easy to operate, and 89.17% of respondents believed that patient management systems reduced workload. About 97.50% of respondents were satisfied with the overall use of the patient management system. The results of the influencing factor analysis showed that those with 3 or less modules designed to meet actual work were less satisfied than those with more than 3 modules, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.001). Respondents put forward suggestions for improvement on the optimization of operational details such as system response speed, interface design, system login and query statistics. Conclusion Medical staff involved in the follow-up management of pulmonary tuberculosis patients are highly satisfied with their work using the patient management system. During the promotion and use, it is still necessary to continuously optimize the system functions according to work needs so that the system can truly facilitate work.

Helicobacter pylori(Hp)is a major pathogen that causes peptic ulcer,mucosa-associated tissue lymphoma and gastric cancer.Adhesion colonization is a prerequisite for the pathogenesis of Hp.After infec-tion,Hp first uses urease to neutralize gastric acid,and then it adapts to the environment through motility and chemotactic swimming of flagella.Finally,Hp adheres to gastric epithelial cells through outer membrane pro-teins.Some outer membrane proteins have the biological effect of transporting virulence factors,mediating in-flammation and assisting Hp to produce pathological changes on human body.This paper reviews the mecha-nism of main colonization factors of Hp.

The Healthy China 2030 Plan set the goal of reducing premature deaths from diabetes by 30% by 2030. However, there has been a lack of assessment of premature mortality for diabetes since the action plan was issued. This study used data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021, calculated the premature deaths for diabetes by sex, provinces, and subtypes from 1990 to 2021. We explored the temporal trend of premature mortality using the average annual percent change (AAPC) for different sexes, provinces, and subtypes from 1990 to 2021. Furthermore, we predicted premature mortality for diabetes through 2030 for China and its provinces according to the average annual change rate from 2010 to 2021. There was a first slow upward trend in premature mortality for diabetes from 0.5% in 1990 to 0.6% in 2004, and then a decline until 2021 with premature mortality of 0.4%. By 2030, only Fujian (30.3%) will achieve the desired level of reduction, with only seven provinces meeting the target for females and none for males. There is a large range in the degree of decline between inland and coastal regions, showing obvious geographic differences, and there should be a focus on balancing medical resources.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors for pathological upgrading in prostate cancer patients with a Gleason score of 3 + 3 undergoing targeted biopsy，and to establish a nomogram prediction model.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 191 patients with localized prostate cancer diagnosed with a Gleason score of 3 + 3 through targeted biopsies at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2020 to June 2024. The age of the patients was 67（61，73）years，with prostate-specific antigen（PSA）level of 7.44（5.53，10.19）ng/ml，prostate volume of 35.64（26.59，48.97）ml，and PSA density（PSAD）of 0.20（0.14，0.31）ng/ml 2. Among them，61 cases（31.94%）had a Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System（PI-RADS）score of 3，104 cases（54.45%）had a score of 4，and 26 cases（13.61%）had a score of 5. The diameter of the main lesion was 10.75（7.86，14.00）mm. The lesions were located in the peripheral zone in 78 cases（40.84%），the transition zone in 99 cases（51.83%），and the anterior fibromuscular stroma in 14 cases（7.33%）. The lesions were found at the apex in 56 cases（29.32%），in the body in 120 cases（62.83%），and at the base in 15 cases（7.85%）. MRI revealed only one lesion with a PI-RADS score ≥ 3 in 131 cases，two suspected lesions in 43 cases，three suspected lesions in 12 cases，and four suspected lesions in 5 cases. Systematic biopsy was positive in 121 cases（63.4%）and negative in 70 cases（36.6%）. The lesions were confined to the left lobe in 63 cases（32.98%），right lobe in 68 cases（35.60%），and involved both lobes in 60 cases（31.41%）. The interval between biopsy and surgery was 9.0（7.0，14.0）days. Univariate analyses were performed using Mann-Whitney U tests or χ2 tests，and multivariate logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of pathological upgrading. A nomogram model was constructed based on these independent predictors. The model’s discriminative ability was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic（ROC）curve（AUC），and internal validation of the model’s consistency was conducted using the bootstrap resampling method. Decision curve analysis（DCA）was performed to assess clinical utility. Results:Among the 191 cases，60（31.4%）had no pathological upgrading after surgery，while 131（68.6%）showed upgrading. Univariate analysis showed that the maximum diameter of the main lesion［9.0（6.0，13.2）mm vs. 11.0（8.4，14.0）mm］，number of suspicious lesions on MRI［1.0（1.0，1.0）vs. 1.0（1.0，2.0）］，number of positive systematic biopsy cores［1.0（0，2.0）vs. 1.0（0，3.0）］，percentage of positive systematic biopsy cores［0.08（0，0.17）vs. 0.12（0，0.25）］，number of positive targeted biopsy cores［2.0（1.0，3.0）vs. 3.0（1.0，4.0）］，percentage of positive targeted biopsy cores［0.37（0.24，0.75）vs. 0.50（0.38，0.85）］，level of the index lesion，location of the index lesion，and PI-RADS score were associated with pathological upgrading（ P < 0.05）. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PI-RADS score 4（ OR = 5.88，95% CI 2.41 - 14.35），number of suspicious lesions on MRI（ OR = 4.15，95% CI 1.88 - 9.17），location of the index lesion in the transition zone（ OR = 6.86，95% CI 2.81 - 16.73），and percentage of positive targeted biopsy cores（ OR = 4.37，95% CI 1.38 - 14.90）were independent risk factors for pathological upgrading（ P < 0.05）. The nomogram model constructed using these predictors had an AUC of 0.845. Internal validation using the Bootstrap method yielded an AUC value of 0.812，indicating high predictive accuracy of the model. The calibration curve indicated good calibration. Decision curve analysis showed that the threshold range for net benefit in the model was between 12% - 100%. Conclusions:The PI-RADS score 4，the number of lesions with PI-RADS ≥ 3，the location of the main lesion in the transition zone，and the percentage of positive needles in targeted biopsy are independent risk factors for pathological upgrading from Gleason score 3 + 3. The nomogram model constructed from these factors demonstrates good predictive performance and provides a reference for clinical decision-making.

Objective To explore the characteristics and influencing factors of complicated intra-abdominal infection in ICU patients after abdominal surgery.Methods A retrospective study was performed on ICU patients(n=92,observation group)developing complicated intra-abdominal infection after abdominal surgery versus patients(n=104,control group)without complicated intra-abdominal infection after abdominal surgery in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2023.The characteristics of patients who developed complicated intra-abdominal infections were analyzed and the relevant influencing factors were identified using multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 124 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated and identified in 92 infected patients,with 64.52％(80/124)of Gram-negative strains comprising mainly 29.03％(36/124)of Escherichia coli,25.81％(32/124)of Gram-positive strains comprising mainly 12.90％(16/124)of Enterococcus faecalis,and 9.68％(12/124)of fungi comprising mainly 6.45％(8/124)of Candida albicans.Multivariate Logistic regression results showed that preoperative underlying disease,surgical methods,duration of surgery,invasive procedures,antibiotic use,and length of ICU stay,enteral nutrition were the influencing factors of complicated intra-abdominal infection in ICU patients after abdominal surgery(P＜0.0 5).Conclusion Patients with complicated intra-abdominal infection are infected with a variety of pathogenic bacteria,predominantly Gram-negative.The patient's preoperative underlying disease,surgical approach,duration of surgery,invasive procedures,use of antibiotics,length of ICU stay,and early enteral nutrition all affect the risk of complicated intra-abdominal infection in ICU patients after abdominal surgery.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and symptoms of pertussis in patients with cough,and to predict individual risk based on the combination of symptoms.Methods A total of 1 025 patients with cough or contact with pertussis patients were included.Pertussis was confirmed by nasopharyngeal swab PCR.Patients were divided into the juvenile group(278 cases)and the adult group(747 cases)according to age.The duration of cough from onset to study participation,the visual analogue(VAS)score of cough degree and the number of basic symptoms(paroxysmal cough,vomiting after cough,crowing cough,pauses in breathing after cough and fever)were compared between the two groups.The confirmed patients were further grouped by age,and the different symptoms were compared.70%of the sample was used as the training set.Based on the combination of symptoms(paroxysmal cough,post-cough vomiting,chick-crooning cough and pauses in inspirations after coughing),multivariate Logistic regression was used to establish the prediction model and draw the nomogram.30%of the sample was used as the validation set,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn.The differentiation of the area under the curve(AUC)evaluation model was calculated.The calibration degree of the model was evaluated by Hosmer-Lemeshow test,and calibration curve was drawn to evaluate the model.Results By PCR,163 cases(15.9%)were confirmed as pertussis.The juvenile group had a longer duration of cough from onset to study participation than the adult group(P＜0.05).The VAS score of cough severity was higher,and the number of basic symptoms of pertussis was more(P＜0.01).In confirmed cases,the proportion of paroxysmal cough,vomiting after cough,crowing cough and inspiratory pause after cough was higher in the juvenile group than that in the adult group(P＜0.01).In the diagnosed cases,the incidence of paroxysmal cough and post-cough vomiting were higher in the＜1-year-old group compared to the 1-9-year-old group and the≥10-year-old group(P＜0.05).The combination of paroxysmal cough,vomiting after cough,crowing cough and inspiratory pause after cough was selected by Logistic regression analysis to establish a nomogram model.The AUC of this model in the training set was 0.852,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test χ2=0.208,P=0.901,and in the verification set,the AUC was 0.899,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test χ2=4.202,P=0.122.The predicted value in the calibration curve was very close to the theoretical value in the training set and the verification set,and the fitting degree was high.Conclusion The infection rate of pertussis is high in patients with cough.The nomogram model based on combined symptoms has a better prediction effect on pertussis differentiation,which can provide reference for the monitoring of pertussis.

Objective To observe the value of extracellular volume(ECV)and relative electron density(RED)based on dual-layer detector spectral CT(DLCT)for identifying colon cancer invasion into serous membrane.Methods Sixty-two patients with pathologically confirmed colon cancer with blurred pericolonic fat gap on CT images were retrospectively collected,including 18 cases of T4a stage tumors with serous membrane invasion and 44 cases of T2-T3 stage without serous membrane invasion.The arterial,venous and delayed phase DLCT images under 40 keV showing the largest diameter of colon cancers were analyzed.The iodine concentration(IC)and RED of the pericolonic fat around tumor-bearing and tumor-free intestines,as well as of the abdominal aorta or the common or external iliac artery were measured,while normalized IC(NIC)and difference of RED(REDdiff)of pericolonic fat around tumor-bearing and tumor-free intestines in each phase and ECV in delayed phase were calculated.The above parameters were compared between tumors with different stages,and for those with significant differences,the receiver operating characteristic curves were drawn,and the areas under the curve(AUC)were calculated to evaluate and compare the efficacies for identifying invasion of serous membrane in T4a stage colon cancer.Results Compared with T2-T3 stage colon cancers,T4a stage colon cancers were found more often occurred in patients aged ＜50 with higher proportion of lymph node metastases(both P＜0.05),also higher values of NIC and REDdiff on images in different phases,as well as ECV in delayed phase images(all P＜0.05).The AUC of arterial,venous and delayed phase NIC for differentiating T2-T3 and T4a stage colon cancers ranged from 0.868 to 0.902,while of REDdiff ranged from 0.848 to 0.903,all without significant difference(all P＞0.05).The AUC of delayed phase ECV was 0.948,not significant different with that of delayed phase NIC and REDdiff,arterial phase NIC nor venous phase REDdiff(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Based on DLCT,ECV and RED could be used to identifying serous membrane invasion of colon cancer when blurred pericolonic fat gaps were noticed.
