Objective:To analyze the association between moderate-to-vigorous-physical activity (MVPA) and obesity, poor sleep quality, as well as multimorbidity in 7- to 8-year-old children in Shanghai City.Methods:From September to November 2023, a cluster sampling method was used to select second-grade students from four primary schools in Jinshan District, Shanghai. Three-axis acceleration motion sensors (GT3X+, Acti-graph) were used to monitor daily physical activity for seven consecutive days. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between MVPA duration characteristics and obesity, poor sleep quality and multimorbidity in school-age children.Results:Of the 937 study participants, 512 (54.64%) were boys and 425 (45.36%) were girls. Among them, 89 (9.50%) were obese and 782 (83.46%) had poor sleep quality. A total of 77 cases (8.22%) were affected by obesity and poor sleep quality. The average daily MVPA time was (45.97±15.87) minutes, and the MVPA attainment rate was 17.18%. The multivariate logistic regression model analysis showed that, after adjusting for covariates, the daily average MVPA time was negatively associated with the risk of obesity ( OR=0.982, 95% CI: 0.968-0.997), as well as multimorbidity ( OR=0.981, 95% CI: 0.965-0.997). The risk of obesity, poor sleep quality and multimorbidity in <1 d was 2.228 ( OR=2.228, 95% CI: 1.398-3.549), 1.702 ( OR=1.702, 95% CI: 1.141-2.540) and 2.150 ( OR=2.150, 95% CI: 1.310-3.528) times higher than that in ≥1 d. Conclusion:Obesity, poor sleep quality and multimorbidity of school-age children are closely related to the level of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity.

Objective:To investigate the short-term efficacy and safety of rituximab (RTX) in children with calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) resistant steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS).Methods:A retrospective case analysis was conducted. Thirteen children with CNI resistant SRNS who were regularly treated with RTX (375 mg/m 2 per dose (maximum dose 500 mg), 1 dose per week, a total of 4 doses) in Department of Nephrology, Children′s Hospital of Fudan University from January 2016 to December 2023 were enrolled. The general data, disease related information, urinary protein/creatinine, serum albumin, blood creatinine before RTX treatment, immunosuppressants, adverse events, and monthly urinary protein/creatinine, serum albumin, and blood creatinine indexes within 6 months after RTX treatment were collected. The changes of urinary protein/creatinine, serum albumin and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) before and after RTX at 3 and 6 months were analyzed by using paired sample t test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results:Among the 13 patients, 8 were male and 5 were female. The age of disease onset was 4.0 (2.9, 6.8) years and the age of RTX treatment was 9.8 (5.9, 13.6) years. There were 8 cases of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, 3 cases of minimal change disease and 2 cases of mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis. No clinically significant gene variation was detected in 12 cases and the other one did not receive gene test. Before RTX treatment, 11 cases were in chronic kidney disease stage G1, and 1 case each was in stage G2 and stage G3. Ten children completed 4 doses of RTX treatment, 1 patient completed 3 doses, and 2 patients completed 2 doses. Urinary protein/creatinine in 13 children at 3 and 6 months after RTX treatment was significantly lower than baseline (0.60 (0.13, 2.04), 0.49 (0.28, 1.10) vs. 1.44 (0.76, 4.11) mg/mg, Z=-2.34, -2.34, both P<0.05), and serum albumin was significantly higher than baseline ((35±8), (34±7) vs. (30±6) g/L, t=2.30, 2.60, both P<0.05). The eGFR at 6 months after RTX treatment was not significantly different from the baseline ((110±32) vs. (113±35) ml/(min·1.73 m 2), t=-0.76, P>0.05)). No serious adverse reactions occurred in this study. Conclusion:RTX could reduce urinary protein and increase serum albumin in short-term treatment in children with CNI resistant SRNS without significant side effects.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban and investigate the clinical features of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) associated with pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) in children. Methods:A case series study was conducted on 36 children, diagnosed with MPP associated with PTE and hospitalized in our institution from January 2020 to June 2024 of Department of Pediatric Respiratory, Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University. Clinical data and follow-up information were collected to analyze their clinical characteristics, outcomes, and adverse events to rivaroxaban. Comparison of coagulation indices before and after treatment with rivaroxaban using the Mann-Whitney rank sum test.Results:Among the 36 children, there were 27 males and 9 females, and the age of onset was (7.8±2.8) years. PTE was diagnosed (17±6) days after the onset of MPP. Thirty-four cases (94%) were classified as low-risk PTE, and 13 cases (36%) had thromboembolism of multiple anatomic sites. All patients presented with cough and fever, manifesting as shortness of breath in 33 cases (92%), chest pain in 12 case (33%), hemoptysis in 6 case (17%) and dyspnea in 5 cases (14%). Pulmonary artery involvement was demonstrated by CT pulmonary angiography in all 36 children. The D-dimer level was 5.1 (4.2, 12.2) mg/L. D-dimer levels were 5.1 (4.2, 12.2) mg/L, of which 29 cases (81%) were ≥4.0 mg/L. The total duration of anticoagulation 3.1 (2.5, 4.2) months. All children received rivaroxaban for 2.7 (2.2, 3.8) months. Of the 36 children, 35 cases were followed up after 3 months of anticoagulant therapy, and 30 cases (83%) showed pulmonary artery thrombus absorption. Finally, follow-up outcome data were available for 34 cases, of which 33 showed complete resolution of thrombus in the affected areas, and 1 showed partial resolution. There were no cases of death, thrombus recurrence or progression, major bleeding events occurred or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. Adverse events included hemoptysis in 2 cases and elevated liver enzymes in 4 cases. After the treatment of rivaroxaban, the levels of D-dimer were decreased compared with those before the treatment of PTE (0.3 (0.2, 0.5) vs. 5.1 (4.2, 12.2) mg/L, Z=-7.12, P<0.05), and the levels of prothrombin time levels were significantly longer compared with those before the treatment of PTE (3.6 (12.4, 14.9) vs. 13.0 (11.8, 13.6) s, Z=2.34, P<0.05). Conclusions:During the course of MPP, the emergence of clinical symptoms such as short of breath, chest pain, hemoptysis, dyspnea or along with elevated D-dimer levels, should raise suspicion for the occurrence of PTE. Rivaroxaban has shown good efficacy and a favorable safety profile.

Objective:To investigate the clinical manifestations, therapeutic strategies and prognostic outcomes in pediatric patients with severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (SMPP) complicated by cardiac thrombosis. Methods:This case series study retrospectively analyzed 15 pediatric patients with SMPP complicated by cardiac thrombosis. The patients was recruited from the Department of Pediatric Respiratory Medicine at Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University between July 2018 and January 2025. Comprehensive clinical data and follow-up information were collected.Results:Among the 15 children, 10 were male and 5 were female, and the age of onset was 8.0 (6.3, 10.0) years. All 15 children presented with fever and cough, while additional symptoms included dyspnea in 7 cases, chest pain in 6 cases, hemoptysis in 3 cases, and chest tightness in 1 case. The white blood cell count was 11.7 (9.5, 15.9)×10 9/L, C-reactive protein was 31.6 (17.5, 64.8) mg/L and lactate dehydrogenase was 548.2 (410.4, 768.3) U/L. A total of 14 children underwent testing for the Mycoplasma pneumoniae drug resistance genes 2063A>G and 2064A>G, of which 13 tested positive. The plasma D-dimer levels of 15 children were 8.77 (7.23, 12.50) mg/L, all of which were higher than normal. Among the 15 children, 5 had decreased activity of anticoagulant proteins (protein C, protein S, antithrombin Ⅲ), and 8 tested positive for antiphospholipid antibodies. Chest CT scans of all 15 children showed pulmonary consolidation and (or) atelectasis, with pleural effusion present in 12 cases. In the 15 children, thrombosis was detected at 14.0 (11.0, 18.0) days after the onset of illness. The locations of cardiac thrombosis included the right ventricle in 9 cases, the right atrium in 5 cases, and the left atrium in 1 case. Additionally, 10 cases had pulmonary vascular embolism, comprising 9 cases of pulmonary artery thrombosis and 1 case of pulmonary vein thrombosis. After anticoagulant treatment, cardiac thrombi disappeared in 10 children. Five children who did not show improvement with anticoagulation underwent surgical thrombectomy. In the follow-up of 15 children, lung imaging basically returned to normal, with no major hemorrhagic events or other adverse events. Conclusions:In children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia, the presence of clinical symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain and hemoptysis, along with elevated plasma D-dimer levels, should raise suspicion for the possibility of cardiac thrombosis. SMPP complicated by cardiac thrombosis, prognosis is good following anticoagulation or surgical treatment.

Objective:To establish a practical patient-based internal quality control method for valproic acid drug concentration monitoring.Methods:Observational Study. A PBRTQC model based on the exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) method was established using Python. All results of a total of 28, 757 valproic acid concentration data from February 1, 2023 to January 31, 2024 were collected and split into training set and validation set at a ratio of 80% and 20% respectively. The truncation limit (TL) was optimized by using the winsorized mean method and the trimmed mean method. Different weighting coefficients λ were set. Different TL and different λ were combined with the EWMA algorithm into different patient-based real-time quality control (PBRTQC) models. The optimized models were verified by introducing simulated constant errors (CE) and proportional errors (PE) respectively. The false positive alarm rate (FAR) was used to evaluate specificity, and the average number of patients before error detection (ANPed) was used to evaluate sensitivity. According to the daily test volume and quality target requirements, we comprehensively judged whether the performance evaluation indicators of FAR and ANPed meet the laboratory requirements. Bias detection curve was used for determination of the best model.Results:The parameters of the best PBRTQC model for valproic acid drug concentration monitoring are: trimmed mean method with 1.5 standard deviations (i.e., truncating data outside 1.5 standard deviations of the data mean), λ=0.01. The performance verification result shows that ANPed of CE and PE of this model are both less than 100. The comparison between the EQA results and the EWMA results show that the EWMA method results are comparable to the EQA results.Conclusion:A PBRTQC model for the valproic acid drug concentration monitoring project based on the EWMA method has been successfully established. It is comparable with both IQC and EQA results, which means PBRTQC may be used as a supplement to the quality control of daily quality control products.

Objective:To develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based platelet review strategy to identify abnormal platelet histograms with no significant difference between initial impedance platelet count (PLT-I) and PLT-F results.Methods:This study included 5 119 routine blood analysis in Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University and its Ganzhou branch from July 2023 and March 2024. Specimens exhibiting abnormal platelet histograms and an initial platelet count >40×10?/L underwent review using the fluorescent platelet count (PLT-F) channel. Consistency of the results was defined as a difference between impedance platelet count (PLT-I) and PLT-F less than ±20% of the PLT-F results. A deep learning model was developed using platelet and red blood cell histogram data from a training set of 3 807 specimens. The model′s diagnostic performance was evaluated on an independent external validation set ( n=805) using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Changes in the number of reviewed samples and sample turnaround time were analyzed to assess its clinical utility. Results:The deep learning model based on platelet and red blood cell histograms achieved an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.854 in the training set. At a cutoff value of 0.1, the sensitivity was 0.954 and specificity was 0.358. The model could reduce review by 16.80% (190/1 131). In the validation set, the AUC was 0.805, with a sensitivity of 0.955 and specificity of 0.307, corresponding to a reduction of 17.41% (47/270) in reviewed specimens.Conclusion:The platelet review prediction model developed based on deep learning technology can efficiently identify samples with consistent results before and after review, reducing unnecessary reviews and shortening specimen testing time, thereby improving the efficiency of platelet test.

Objective:To develop a treatment-related quality of life scale for Chinese patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and to test its reliability and validity.Methods:The initial scale was constructed through a literature search, Delphi expert correspondence, and cognitive testing. This study conducted a preliminary survey of 379 patients with MM and a formal survey of 865 patients from the hematology departments of 155 hospitals nationwide from February 2024 to March 2024. The final scale was obtained after conducting item analysis and reliability and validity tests on the initial scale.Results:The constructed scale contains 36 items covering six domains: physiological, psychological, social, treatment side effects, general health, and others. In the preliminary survey, the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of each item ranged from 0.597 to 0.939, and the test-retest reliability was 0.747 ( P<0.001). Exploratory factor analysis extracted eight common factors with a cumulative variance contribution of 60.058%. In the formal survey, the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of each item ranged from 0.484 to 0.930, and the test-retest reliability was 0.835 ( P<0.001). Confirmatory factor analysis revealed a comparative fit index of 0.750, a root-mean-square error of approximation of 0.090, and a root-mean-square residual of 0.067. Conclusion:The treatment-related quality of life scale for Chinese patients with MM designed in this study exhibited good reliability and validity, reflecting the impact of treatment on the quality of life of patients. This scale can provide a reference to clinicians for assessing the disease status of patients.

OBJECTIVE From the perspective of China’s healthcare system, to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of tislelizumab in patients with locally advanced or metastatic squamous or non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose disease progresses or is intolerable after receiving platinum-containing dual chemotherapy in the past. METHODS Rationale-303 research data were used to construct a partitioned survival model. The model period was set to be 21 days and simulated to 120 months. Using quality-adjusted life year (QALY) as a health output index, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was calculated by discounting cost and health output with a discount rate of 5%. Single-factor sensitivity analysis and probability sensitivity analysis were performed to verify the robustness of the basic analysis results. RESULTS Cost-utility analysis results showed that the ICER of tislelizumab group was 65 653.52 yuan/QALY, compared with docetaxel group. This means that the regimen of tislelizumab was more cost-effective than the docetaxel regimen when the willingness-to-pay threshold (WTP) was 3 times China’s gross domestic product (GDP) per capita in 2023 (268 200 yuan/QALY). The results of single-factor sensitivity analysis showed that the three parameters that had a greater impact on ICER were the prices of tislelizumab, docetaxel and pemetrexed. The results of the probabilistic sensitivity analysis showed that the probabilities of the above two treatment regimens being cost-effective were both 50% when the WTP threshold was approximately 65 000 yuan/QALY. The probability of tislelizumab regimen being cost- effective was 100% when the WTP threshold was ≥134 000 yuan/QALY. CONCLUSIONS From the perspective of China’s healthcare system, when taking 3 times China’s GDP per capita in 2023 as the WTP threshold, tislelizumab is cost-effective for patients with locally advanced or metastatic squamous or non-squamous NSCLC after receiving platinum-containing dual chemotherapy in the past, compared with docetaxel.
