Objective To observe value of echocardiographic evaluation on infants with pulmonary atresia and intact ventricular septum(PA/IVS)for surgical decision and post operation right ventricle(RV)development.Methods Forty-six PA/IVS infants who underwent pulmonary valve(PV)annuloplasty(group A,n=25),PV annuloplasty and RV outflow tract reconstruction with/without additional systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt(group B,n=15),and systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt and atrial septal enlargement(group C,n=6)were retrospectively enrolled.Status of RV developments were compared among groups before operation as well as 1 and 6 months after operation.Results The presentation age in group B was younger than,while in group C was older than that in group A(both P＜0.05).Before operation,tricuspid valve(TV)annulus diameter,TV annulus Z-score and TV/mitral valve(MV)annulus ratio in groups B and C were both smaller than those in group A(all P＜0.05),whereas RV/left ventricle(LV)longitudinal diameter ratio in group B was larger and PV annulus Z-score in group C was smaller than those in group A(both P＜0.05).Meanwhile,preoperative PV annulus Z-score and RV/LV longitudinal diameter ratio in group B were both larger than those in group C(both P＜0.05).One month after operations,TV annulus diameter,TV annulus Z-score and TV/MV annulus ratio in group B and C,as well as PV annulus diameter,PV annulus Z-score and RV/LV longitudinal diameter ratio in group C were all smaller than those in group A(all P＜0.05),while PV annulus diameter,PV annulus Z-score and RV/LV longitudinal diameter ratio in group C were all smaller than those in group B(all P＜0.05).Six months after operations,no significant difference of TV annulus diameter,PV annulus diameter,PV annulus Z-score,TV/MV annulus ratio nor RV/LV longitudinal diameter ratio was found between group A and B(all P＞0.05),but the above indexes in group C were all lower than those in group A and B(all P＜0.05).Besides,no significant difference of TV annulus Z-score was found between group A and B(P＞0.05),which were lower in group C than in group A(P＜0.05).Conclusion Echocardiographic evaluation on PA/IVS infants was helpful to establishment of forward blood flow from RV to pulmonary arteries in time,hence promoting RV development.

ObjectiveTo explore the application value of CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) in assessing the severity of acute pulmonary embolism (APE) and right heart function in rehabilitation patients. MethodsFrom January, 2013 to January, 2020, 133 inpatients (94 positive and 39 negative) who underwent CTPA examination in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were involved. Positive patients were further divided into mild, moderate and severe groups based on the pulmonary artery obstruction index (PAOI). The clinical parameters and right heart function indicators were compared. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between PAOI, and clinical parameters and right heart function indicators, and Logistic regression analysis was used to predict the risk factors of APE. ResultsThere was significant difference in lower extremity venous thrombosis, D-dimer, oxygen partial pressure, PAOI and left process of interventricular septum among four groups (H ≥ 12.350, P < 0.01). PAOI was moderately positively correlated with D-dimer (r = 0.443, P < 0.001) and left process of interventricular septum (r = 0.520, P < 0.001), and was weakly positively correlated with lower extremity venous thrombosis (r = 0.399, P < 0.001), left pulmonary artery diameter (r = 0.213, P = 0.014) and inferior vena cava regurgitation (r = 0.229, P = 0.008). Lower extremity venous thrombosis (OR = 7.708, P < 0.001) and left process of interventricular septum (OR = 3.641, P = 0.008) were independent risk factors for the onset of APE. The combination of the two indicators was effective for diagnosis of APE, and AUC was 0.795 (95% CI 0.715 to 0.874). ConclusionCTPA may be applied to evaluate the severity of APE and right heart function in rehabilitation patients.

Objective: To elucidate clinical characteristics and build a prognostic nomogram for patients with vulvar cancer. Methods: The study population was drawn from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Patients were randomly assigned to training and validation sets. Cox proportional hazards model and competing risk model were used to identify the prognostic parameters of overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) to construct a nomogram. The nomogram was assessed by concordance index (C-index), area under the curve (AUC), calibration plot, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results: A total of 20,716 patients were included in epidemiological analysis, of whom 7,025 patients were selected in survival analysis, including 4,215 and 2,810 in training and validation sets, respectively. The multivariate Cox model showed that the predictors for OS were age, marital status, histopathology, differentiation and tumor node metastasis (TNM) stages, whether to undergo surgery and chemotherapy. However, the predictors for CSS were age, race, differentiation and TNM stages, whether to undergo surgery and radiation. The C-index for OS and CSS in the training set were 0.76 and 0.80. The AUC in the training set for 1-, 3- and 5-year OS and CSS were 0.84, 0.81, 0.80 and 0.88, 0.85, 0.83, respectively, which was similar in the validation set. The calibration curves showed good agreement between prediction and actual observations. DCA revealed that the nomogram had a better discrimination than TNM stages. Conclusions The nomogram showed accurate prognostic prediction in OS and CSS for vulvar cancer, which could provide guidance to clinical practice.

In this study, the rapid resolution liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (RRLC-QTOF/MS) was used to profile the metabolites of urine samples from chronic heart failure (CHF) patients and healthy controls to find the differential metabolites which could provide the scientific evidence to explain the pathogenesis of the disease and supply a better therapy plan.Urine samples from 15 CHF patients (age (62.27±3.14) years) and 15 healthy controls (age (65.41±4.63) years) were analyzed by RRLC-QTOF/MS.After processing the data, the multivariate statistical analysis (principal component analysis, PCA) was performed to find the potential biomarkers.Result showed that urine samples of CHF patients were successfully distinguished from those of healthy controls.Two significantly differentially expressed metabolites, uridine and alanyltryptophan, were found and identified as potential biomarkers.The result showed that the LC-MS based metabolomics approach had good performance to identify potential biomarkers, and the disorder of uracil metabolism and Tryptophan metabolism may play an important role in the mechanism of CHF.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and drug resistance profile of the strains isolated from cerebrospinal fluid of neurosurgery patients so as to provide guidance for the prevention and treatment of intracranial infection.Methods The prevalence and drug resistance of strains isolated from cerebrospinal fluid of neurosurgery patients admitted from Jan 2011 through Dec 2015.Results A total of 1 060 strains were isolated from 23 259 CSF samples.The positive rate of culture was 4.56％.After 1 060 strains were categorized and some of the same species were eliminated,419 strains of different species were obtained,including 103 (24.6％) strains of gram-positive bacteria,293 (69.9％) strains of gram-negative bacteria and 23 (5.5％) strains of fungus.The three leading strains isolated were Acinetobacter spp.(165 strains,39.4％),Klebsiella pneumoniae (72 strains,17.2％),coagulase negative staphylococcus (54 strains,13.6％).The Acinetobacter baumannii isolates showed high resistance rate to meropenem (82.3％) and to cefoperazone sulbactam (76.4％),while the rates of drug resistance to colistin and amikacin were quite low found to be 3.1％ and 29.8％,respectively.The drug resistance of Klebsiella pneumonia was serious in which the rate of drug resistance to meropenem was 72.6％,and the rate of drug resistance to cefoperazone sulbactam was 79.0％,and rates of drug resistance to colistin and Amikacin were quite low found to be 0％ and 35.2％,respectively.The detection rates of MRSA,MRSE and MRSH were high found to be 76.5％,100％ and 100％ respectively.Non-susceptible to vancomycin and teicoplanin strains in staphylococci species were not found.Conclusions The majority of strains isolated from the cerebrospinal fluid were gram-negative bacteria,and the detection rates of Acinetobacter and Klebsiella pneumoniae were high,and the rates of drug resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae were high.Doctor should pay more attention to the prevalence of pathogenic strains isolated from cerebrospinal fluid and drug resistance of those strains in order to rational use of antibiotic according to the drug resistance detection.

Objective To study the prevalence and socio-demographic correlates of mental disorders in Beijing residents. Methods The multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used,19 874 residents aged 18 or above who had lived for more than six months in Beijing were selected. Face-to-face assessment was conducted by trained investigators by using the Chinese version of the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-ⅣAxisⅠDisorders-Patient Edition(SCID-Ⅰ/P)to find any mental disorders, and the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) to screen for dementia and mental retardation. Those who were positive on MMSE(MMSE≤17 for those who completed elementary education or less,≤23 for those who completed middle school or above) were further assessed to confirm dementia and mental retardation by using the SCID. Results 16 032 (80.7%) out of 19 874 eligible residents completed the face-to-face assessment. Adjusted by age and gender, the lifetime prevalence of all mental disorders was 120.8‰ (1 937/16 032, 115.8‰-125.9‰), and the top three most common ones were major depressive disorder (527,32.9‰), alcohol dependence and abuse (311, 19.4‰), and anxiety disorder, NOS (270, 16.8‰). The point prevalence of all mental disorders was 75.3‰ (1 207/16 032,71.2‰-79.4‰), the top three were specific phobias (187, 11.7‰),anxiety disorder, NOS (186, 11.6‰), and major depressive disorder (162, 10.1‰).The prevalence of mental disorders was significantly higher in the elderly(OR=1.014),female(OR=1.428),unemployed(OR=1.096),people having poor rapports with family(OR=1.686) or others(OR=1.901), smoking(OR=1.129)or drinking(OR=1.262). The prevalence of mental disorders was significantly lower in the urban residents(OR=0.840), people in a higher level of education(OR=0.813), people who had got married/remarried or who had partner(OR=0.689), people who had no family history of any mental disorders(OR=0.405). Conclusions Approximately 12% of Beijing residents may meet at least one diagnosis of mental disorder in their lifetime; The prevalence of mental disorders is associated with older age,female gender,lower level of education,rural dwelling,positive family history of mental disorders,and poor social support system.
