Objective:To explore the differences in clinical phenotype characteristics and auxiliary test results of Gerstmann-Str?ussler-Scheinker syndrome (GSS) patients in the same family with GSS carrying a P102L mutation in the PRNP gene. Methods:A family with GSS carrying a P102L mutation in the PRNP gene, which was identified and treated at the Department of Neurology, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University in January 2024 was collected. A comprehensive evaluation was conducted on the proband, including neuropsychological examination, imaging studies, electroencephalogram, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis, real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) assay of skin biopsy samples, and genetic testing. At the same time, a survey and analysis were conducted on the family members. Skin RT-QuIC, genetic testing and neuropsychological evaluation were performed on some of the family members. Results:Among the 4-generation members of the GSS family, there were 5 GSS patients, including the proband′s father, younger brother, uncle and cousin. The proband, her younger brother and cousin all carried the P102L mutation in the PRNP gene, and her son was a carrier of the P102L mutation in the PRNP gene. The proband was a 53 years old female, and had a typical GSS phenotype, with the initial symptom of ataxia. The CSF 14-3-3 protein was negative and there were no abnormalities observed on her brain magnetic resonance imaging. The skin and CSF RT-QuIC test results of the proband were both negative. The cousin of the proband had a typical GSS phenotype, and his skin RT-QuIC test result was negative. The younger brother of the proband had a GSS phenotype of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease type, with the initial symptom of rapidly progressing dementia and a positive skin RT-QuIC test result. The first symptoms of the proband′s father and uncle were both ataxia, and they had passed away without undergoing genetic testing. The son of the proband was a carrier of the P102L mutation in the PRNP gene and had no clinical symptoms. Conclusion:Different family members in the same GSS family may exhibit different clinical phenotypes, and GSS with different phenotypes have differences in RT-QuIC results.

Objective:To explore the interaction effect of diabetes and obesity on recurrence or anal fistula in patients with perianal abscess after simple incision and drainage.Methods:The clinical data of 163 patients with perianal abscess who underwent simple incision and drainage from Jun. 2021 to Jun. 2023 were analyzed retrospectively. The incidence of recurrence or anal fistula in 6 months after surgery was calculated. Multivariate Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of postoperative recurrence or anal fistula. The multiplicative and additive models were used to analyze the interaction effect of diabetes and obesity on the risk of postoperative recurrence or anal fistula.Results:In 6 months after simple incision and drainage, the incidence of recurrence or anal fistula was 28.22% (46/163). Univariate analysis results showed that gender, obesity, and diabetes were related to recurrence of perianal abscess or incidence of anal fistula ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis results showed that obesity ( OR=2.447, 95% CI: 1.320-4.538) and diabetes ( OR=2.162, 95% CI: 1.187-3.938) were independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence or anal fistula ( P<0.05). Interaction effect analysis found that after adjusting for confounding factors, diabetes and obesity had additive interaction effect on the risk of postoperative recurrence or anal fistula. The relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI), attribution percentage (AP), and interaction effect index (S) were 1.829 (95% CI: 0.605-3.007), 0.405 (95% CI: 0.143-0.597), and 2.098 (95% CI: 1.201-3.172), respectively. There was no multiplicative interaction effect between the two ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:Diabetes and obesity are independent risk factors for recurrence or anal fistula in patients with perianal abscess after simple incision and drainage. The two may have synergistic effect on the risk of postoperative recurrence or anal fistula.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of postoperative recurrence in patients with complex anal fistula, and to construct a nomogram model to predict the risk of postoperative recurrence and verify it.Methods:Clinical data of 310 patients with complex anal fistula who underwent fistulectomy in the hospital from Aug. 2019 to Mar. 2023 were retrospectively selected and divided into modeling group (93 cases) and validation group (217 cases) in a 3∶7 ratio according to system randomization method. Hospital electronic medical record system was used to collect patient baseline data and calculate the recurrence rate of patients 6 months after surgery. According to the data of the modeling group, multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of postoperative recurrence in patients with complex anal fistula. Based on the influencing factors, a nomogram model was established to predict the risk of postoperative recurrence, and external verification was performed based on the data of the validation group.Results:The recurrence rate at 6 months after operation was 20.43% (19/93) in the modeling group and 17.51% (38/217) in the validation group. There was no significant difference in recurrence rate between the two groups ( χ2=0.370, P=0.543) . The proportion of male, smoking history, diabetes mellitus, high anal fistula and unclear position of internal orifice in the recurrence group was higher than that in the non-recurrence group, and the body mass index and course of disease were higher than those in the non-recurrence group ( P<0.05) . Based on the above seven influencing factors, a nomogram model of the risk of recurrence of complex anal fistula after surgery was established. C index of the modeling group and the validation group was 0.984 and 0.798 respectively, the calibration curve was close to the ideal curve, and the Receiver operating characteristic AUC of the nomogram prediction model was>0.70, indicating that model consistency, prediction efficiency and differentiation were good. Conclusion:The nomogram prediction model based on gender, body mass index, smoking history, diabetes mellitus, course of disease, high anal fistula and internal orifice position can effectively predict the risk of postoperative recurrence in patients with complex anal fistula.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) in China and analyze the causes, to guide the formulation and implementation of technology standard.Methods:The survey task force sent out a nationwide survey to obtain up-to-date information on perfusion practice by ChSECC(Chinese Society of Extracorporeal Circulation). The unit of analysis for the survey was the medical center performs CPB. The survey consisted 48 questions covering four topics of qualifications, including certification and education, policies and practices, device and equipment, techniques used.Results:There were 540 of the 714 centers for an overall response rate of 76%. According to the annual number of CPB, they were divided into 4 groups: group A(≤50 cases/year), group B(50-100 cases/year), group C(100-500 cases/year) and group D(≥500 cases/year). The response rate of center with more than group D last year was 100%. Most of the perfusionists had certification issued by ChSECC. Although there were more than 80% of group D performed regular training and assessment of perfusionist, the result was still not ideal enough. Low utilization of safety equipment was not depend on the annual operation volume in most of responding centers. Ultrafiltration and blood protection technology had high application rate in group D compared with group A and B.Conclusion:The certification rate of perfusionists are high. Lower the number of annual CPB cases, lower the proportion of regular evaluation and training, and lower rate of standards performance. No matter the amount of CPB, the application rate of safety equipment is not ideal. Higher the number of CPB cases, higher the utilization rate of CPB related technologies.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics and change law of influenza in Fuling District of Chongqing in 2010-2019, and to provide a scientific basis for the pre-control of influenza.Methods:We performed an epidemiological analysis on the data of influenza-like illness reported by Fuling District influenza surveillance sentinel hospitals in Chongqing in 2010-2019.Results:In 2010-2019, a total of 42 169 cases of influenza-like illness were reported in Fuling District, with an average treatment rate of 1.22%. The activity of influenza-like illness peaked in winter, spring, and summer. There were 22 788 cases in the group of cases aged < 5 years, accounting for 50.4%. In 2010-2019, a total of 8049 pharyngeal swabs were collected to screen for influenza-like illness, with a positive rate of 14.52%. Influenza virus A H3 positive rate was highest, accounting for 37.98%, followed by influenza virus B BV positive rate, accounting for 30.80%. The highest influenza virus-positive rate was reported in January (26.34%), followed by November (24.85%).Conclusion:Influenza in the Fuling district of Chongqing mainly occurs in winter, spring, and summer. Influenza virus A H3 is the dominant strain. Children and school students are prone to develop influenza-like illnesses. We should continue to strengthen the monitoring of influenza strains, greatly promote vaccination, and strengthen the monitoring and prevention of influenza-like illness among susceptible populations.

BACKGROUND:Functional changes of some functional genes have been showed to trigger osteoarthritis, among which, age may be a critical one. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the clinical manifestations of osteoarthritis and the research process of silent information regulation 1 in the occurrence and development of osteoarthritis. METHODS:A computer-based retrieval was performed in the databases of CNKI, PubMed, SpringerLink, and Elsevier Science Direct using the keywords ofosteoarthritis, silent information regulation 1 and cartilagein Chinese and English, respectively. Finally 83 eligible literatures were enrolled for analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Deacetylation modification acts on the occurrence and development of osteoarthritis by regulating the expression and biological function of various cytokines. Silent information regulation 1 cannot only regulate body metabolism, inhibit cellapoptosis, repair DNA injury, delay senescence and resist to stress, but also play important roles in the epigenetic modification, gene silencing and signal transduction. Therefore, silent information regulation 1 is involved in the age-related diseases, such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, silent information regulation 1 is likely to be an important target of osteoarthritis drugs, and even reverses mechanical stress-induced cartilage injury in the early stage of osteoarthritis.
