Objective To evaluate the applicability of a modified U-shaped forearm flap for the repair of small-and medium-sized defects in the oral and maxillary areas to provide a reference for clinicians.Methods This study was re-viewed and approved by the Ethics Committee,and informed consent was obtained from the patients.Ten patients with small-and medium-sized defects in the oral and maxillary areas underwent surgical repair using modified U-shaped fore-arm flaps.There were 8 males and 2 females aged 43-72 years.The donor site was apposed primarily after harvesting the modified U-shaped forearm skin flap.The flaps ranged from 6 cm × 4 cm to 8 cm × 5 cm in size.Six months after the operation,hand movements(finger extension,fist clenching,wrist rotation upward and wrist rotation downward),the forearm donor site,hand sensations and the satisfaction score for the postoperative quality of the scar at the donor site were evaluated(0 to 10;0:very unattractive,10:very satisfactory).Results A total of 10 patients with modified U-shaped forearm flaps survived.One patient developed venous crisis 24 hours after surgery and survived after surgical ex-ploration.Delayed healing occurred at the donor site of the forearm in 1 patient,and the wounds at the donor site of the forearm in the other patients all healed in the first stage.One patient presented with dysesthesia in the hand 2 weeks af-ter surgery and recovered within 3 months.Six months after surgery,all patients had no limited hand movement and no paresthesia at the forearm donor site or hand.The patients were basically satisfied with the appearance of the donor site,and the average satisfaction score of the subjective questionnaire was 8.4 points.Conclusion Modified U-shaped fore-arm flaps can directly close forearm donor site wounds,which avoids surgical trauma to the secondary donor site and sig-nificantly reduces related complications.Modified U-shaped forearm flaps provide an alternative to conventional forearm flaps for the repair of small-and medium-sized defects in the oral and maxillary areas.

Objective:To investigate respiratory virus infection in children with septic shock in pediatric care units (PICU) in China and its influence on clinical outcomes.Methods:The clinical data of children with septic shock in children′s PICU from January 2018 to December 2019 in 10 Chinese hospitals were retrospectively collected. They were divided into the pre-COVID-19 and post-COVID-19 groups according to the onset of disease, and the characteristics and composition of respiratory virus in the 2 groups were compared. Matching age, malignant underlying diseases, bacteria, fungi and other viruses, a new database was generated using 1∶1 propensity score matching method. The children were divided into the respiratory virus group and non-respiratory virus group according to the presence or absence of respiratory virus infection; their clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment were compared by t-test, rank sum test and Chi-square test. The correlation between respiratory virus infection and the clinical outcomes was analyzed by logistic regression. Results:A total of 1 247 children with septic shock were included in the study, of them 748 were male; the age was 37 (11, 105) months. In the pre-and post-COVID-19 groups, there were 530 and 717 cases of septic shock, respectively; the positive rate of respiratory virus was 14.9% (79 cases) and 9.8% (70 cases); the seasonal distribution of septic shock was 28.9% (153/530) and 25.9% (185/717) in autumn, and 30.3% (161/530) and 28.3% (203/717) in winter, respectively, and the corresponding positive rates of respiratory viruses were 19.6% (30/153) and 15.7% (29/185) in autumn, and 21.1% (34/161) and 15.3% (31/203) in winter, respectively. The positive rates of influenza virus and adenovirus in the post-COVID-19 group were lower than those in the pre-COVID-19 group (2.1% (15/717) vs. 7.5% (40/530), and 0.7% (5/717) vs. 3.2% (17/530), χ2=21.51 and 11.08, respectively; all P<0.05). Rhinovirus virus were higher than those in the pre-Covid-19 group (1.7% (12/717) vs. 0.2% (1/530), χ2=6.51, P=0.011). After propensity score matching, there were 147 cases in both the respiratory virus group and the non-respiratory virus group. Rate of respiratory failure, acute respiratory distress, rate of disseminated coagulation dysfunction, and immunoglobulin usage of the respiratory virus group were higher than those of non-respiratory virus group (77.6% (114/147) vs. 59.2% (87/147), 17.7% (26/147) vs. 4.1% (6/147), 15.6% (25/147) vs. 4.1% (7/147), and 35.4% (52/147) vs. 21.4% (32/147); χ2=11.07, 14.02, 11.06 and 6.67, all P<0.05); and PICU hospitalization of the former was longer than that of the later (7 (3, 16) vs. 3 (1, 7)d, Z=5.01, P<0.001). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that the presence of respiratory viral infection was associated with respiratory failure, disseminated coagulation dysfunction, the use of mechanical ventilation, and the use of immunoglobulin and anti-respiratory viral drugs ( OR=2.42, 0.22, 0.25, 0.56 and 1.12, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The composition of respiratory virus infection in children with septic shock is different between pre and post-COVID-19. Respiratory viral infection is associated with organ dysfunction in children with septic shock. Decreasing respiratory viral infection through respiratory protection may improve the clinical outcome of these children.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features, pathogen composition, and prognosis of septic shock in pediatric intensive care units (PICU) in China.Methods:A multicenter retrospective cohort study. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of children with septic shock from 10 hospitals in China between January 2018 and December 2021. The clinical features, pathogen composition, and outcomes were collected. Patients were categorized into malignant tumor and non-malignant tumor groups, as well as survival and mortality groups. T test, Mann Whitney U test or Chi square test were used respectively for comparing clinical characteristics and prognosis between 2 groups. Multiple Logistic regression was used to identify risk factors for mortality. Results:A total of 1 247 children with septic shock were included, with 748 males (59.9%) and the age of 3.1 (0.9, 8.8) years. The in-patient mortality rate was 23.2% (289 cases). The overall pathogen positive rate was 68.2% (851 cases), with 1 229 pathogens identified. Bacterial accounted for 61.4% (754 strains) and virus for 24.8% (305 strains). Among all bacterium, Gram negative bacteria constituted 64.2% (484 strains), with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterobacter being the most common; Gram positive bacteria comprised 35.8% (270 strains), primarily Streptococcus and Staphylococcus species. Influenza virus (86 strains (28.2%)), Epstein-Barr virus (53 strains (17.4%)), and respiratory syncytial virus (46 strains (17.1%)) were the top three viruses. Children with malignant tumors were older and had higher pediatric risk of mortality (PRISM) Ⅲ score, paediatric sequential organ failure assessment (pSOFA) score (7.9 (4.3, 11.8) vs. 2.3 (0.8, 7.5) years old, 22 (16, 26) vs. 16 (10, 24) points, 10 (5, 14) vs. 8 (4, 12) points, Z=11.32, 0.87, 4.00, all P<0.05), and higher pathogen positive rate, and in-hospital mortality (77.7% (240/309) vs. 65.1% (611/938), 29.7% (92/309) vs. 21.0% (197/938), χ2=16.84, 10.04, both P<0.05) compared to the non-tumor group. In the death group, the score of PRISM Ⅲ, pSOFA (16 (22, 29) vs. 14 (10, 20) points, 8 (12, 15) vs. 6 (3, 9) points, Z=4.92, 11.88, both P<0.05) were all higher, and presence of neoplastic disease, positive rate of pathogen and proportion of invasive mechanical ventilation in death group were also all higher than those in survival group (29.7% (87/289) vs. 23.2% (222/958), 77.8% (225/289) vs. 65.4% (626/958), 73.7% (213/289) vs. 50.6% (485/958), χ2=5.72, 16.03, 49.98, all P<0.05). Multiple Logistic regression showed that PRISM Ⅲ, pSOFA, and malignant tumor were the independent risk factors for mortality ( OR=1.04, 1.09, 0.67, 95% CI 1.01-1.05, 1.04-1.12, 0.47-0.94, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Bacterial infection are predominant in pediatric septic shock, but viral infection are also significant. Children with malignancies are more severe and resource consumptive. The overall mortality rate for pediatric septic shock remains high, and mortality are associated with malignant tumor, PRISM Ⅲ and pSOFA scores.

Single-cell RNA sequencing technology takes a single cell as research object,counts and analyzes the gene expres-sion level of each transcript and heterogeneity between cells.This technology makes up for the defects of traditional sequencing techno-logy to some extent.Autoimmune disease is the damage or dysfunction of autotissue cells caused by autoimmune tolerance or abnormal regulation of autoimmunity cells.In this paper,the research results on application of single-cell RNA sequencing technology in autoim-mune disease in recent years are reviewed,which provides valuable clues for early realization of precise medical treatment.

Objective To explore the value of diffusion-tensor imaging(DTI)of different gray matter nuclei in the diagnosis and assessment of prodromal Parkinson's disease(pPD)under logistic regression model.Methods A total of 20 patients with pPD were collected as case group and 28 healthy people as control group(HC group).All patients were examined by MRI plain scan and DTI.DSI studio was used to post-process the DTI images of all patients.Parameters(FA,MD,AD,RD)of basal ganglia,midbrain and brainstem of patients with pPD and HC group were automatically extracted and statistically analyzed.Logistic regression analysis was used to draw the Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC)curve to analyze and compare the diagnostic efficacy of individual diagnosis and combined diagnosis of each parameter.And the correlation between the parameters of each group and MMSE score was analyzed.Results There were statistical differences in basal ganglia,midbrain and brain stem in PPD and HC group(P<0.05).Under Logistic regression equation model,when the optimal threshold was 0.63,the AUC of PPD was 0.964.The sensitivity and specificity of differential diagnosis were 85.0%and 100%respectively(P<0.001).There was correlation between DTI parameters and MMSE score in locus coeruleus in PPD group(P<0.05),and the correlation coefficient of FA value in locus coeruleus(r =-0.646,P = 0.002)was the highest.Conclusions The lesions of basal ganglia,midbrain and brainstem correlated gray matter nuclei in pPD were extensive and differ-ent in degree.AD value of locus coeruleus was valuable for quantitative diagnosis of pPD,FA value of locus coeruleus could be used as a characteristic sensitive index for recognition of the severity of dysfunction in pPD patients.Multi-parameter combined diagnosis of DTI under Logistic regression model could effectively improve the diagnostic efficiency,and provide valuable reference for early diagnosis and intervention of pPD.

In China, the survival rate of liver cancer remains low while the mortality rate is high. Effectively reducing the burden of liver cancer is still a major challenge in the field of public health and chronic disease prevention in the Chinese population. Optimizing screening strategies for liver cancer remains a profound approach to secondary prevention worthy of continuous exploration. To address this pressing issue, the Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention of the National Health Commission commissioned this guideline. The National Cancer Center of China initiated the guideline development and convened a multidisciplinary expert panel and working groups. Following the World Health Organization Handbook for Guideline Development, this guideline integrated the most up-to-date evidence of liver cancer screening, China's national conditions, and existing practical experience in liver cancer screening. Evidence-based recommendations on the target population, screening technologies, surveillance strategies, and other key points across the process of liver cancer screening and surveillance management were provided. This guideline would help standardize the practice of liver cancer screening in China.
