Objective To understand the status of intra-abdominal hypertension(IAH)in children after liver transplantation,and to analyze the risk factors,to provide references for clinical medical staff to identify high-risk early,and formulate the prevention and intervention program of IAH after liver transplantation.Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted,and the clinical data of 208 children who received liver transplantation from October 2021 to June 2023 in a tertiary hospital in Zhejiang Province were enrolled.The status of IAH after liver transplantation was described,and participants were divided into 2 groups according to transbladder monitoring intra-abdominal pressure levels.Children with ≥10 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)was classified as an intra-abdominal hypertension group,while those with<10 mmHg was classified as a non-intra-abdominal hypertension group.Results There were 51 cases(24.52%)which had IAH,including 12 cases(23.53%)of grade I to Ⅱ and 39 cases(76.47%)of grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ in 208 intra-abdominal hypertension in children after liver transplantation.Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that the graft to recipient weight ratio(OR=1.391),duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation(OR=1.006),and postoperative central venous pressure(OR=1.375)were independent risk factors for IAH(P<0.05).Conclusion The incidence of IAH in children after liver transplantation were high.Greater graft to recipient weight ratio,longer mechanical ventilation time,higher central venous pressure could increase the risk of IAH.During clinical practice,more emphasis should be strengthened on the abdominal pressure dynamic monitoring and providing timely intervention to reduce the occurrence of IAH,and improving the prognosis of children after liver transplantation.

Objective:To explore the changes of coagulation index levels in patients with type 2 diabetic foot and their correlation with pathological changes, in order to provide reference for clinical diagnosis of diabetic foot.Methods:133 patients with type 2 diabetes admitted to the Xiaoshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Hangzhou from Jun. 2018 to Jun. 2020 were selected. The patients were divided into type 2 diabetes group ( n=65) and diabetes foot group ( n=68) according to whether they had diabetes feet. In addition, 60 patients who had health examinations in our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. Fibrinogen (FIB), thrombin time (TT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT) were compared in each group, and Spearman method was used to analyze the correlation between each index and the occurrence of diabetes foot. Area under curve (AUC) of working characteristics of subjects (ROC) was used to analyze the diagnostic value of each index in diabetes foot. Results:The average FIB of control group, type 2 diabetes group and diabetes foot group was (2.86±0.50) g/L, (3.30±0.81) g/L, (4.43±1.16) g/L; The FIB level in diabetes foot group was significantly higher than that in type 2 diabetes group and control group, and that in type 2 diabetes group was significantly higher than that in control group ( P<0.05) ; The mean TT of control group, type 2 diabetes group and diabetes foot group was (17.60±2.01) s, (15.39±2.39) s, (13.49±2.84) s; The average APTT of control group, type 2 diabetes group and diabetes foot group was (32.02±4.22) s, (29.97±3.97) s, (25.69±4.07) s; The mean PT values of control group, type 2 diabetes group and diabetes foot group were (12.64±1.49) s, (11.41±1.04) s and (10.50±1.08) s. The TT, APTT and PT values in the diabetes foot group were significantly lower than those in the type 2 diabetes group and the control group, and those in the type 2 diabetes group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05) ; The level of FIB index was positively correlated with the occurrence of diabetes foot, while TT, APTT and PT indexes were negatively correlated with the occurrence of diabetes foot ( P<0.05). The AUC values of FIB, TT, APTT and PT indexes for the diagnosis of diabetes foot were 0.898, 0.879, 0.859 and 0.871, respectively. Conclusions:There are significant differences in FIB, TT, APTT and PT index levels between diabetic foot patients and type 2 diabetic patients and healthy people, and the occurrence of diabetic foot is significantly related to blood coagulation indicators. The detection of blood coagulation indicators has certain clinical significance for the diagnosis of diabetic foot.

Objective:To investigate the effect of instantaneous flow rate on the consistency of diagnostic accuracy of severe degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) using proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA).Methods:From June 2019 to June 2021, 75 patients with DMR who underwent echocardiography in Department of Echocardiography of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University were prospectively enrolled. The instantaneous flow rate of DMR during the systolic phase was calculated using M-mode PISA(PISA M-mode), and a time-integrated curve was plotted. Regurgitant volume (RVol) and effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) were calculated by traditional PISA (PISA max), pair PISA (PISA pair), and PISA M-mode, respectively. RVol acquired from cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) volumetric method in 22 patients of the enrolled patients. The correlation and consistency of RVol acquired between the three PISA methods and CMR were compared. Agreement of diagnostic accuracy of severe mitral regurgitation (sMR) acquired between the three PISA methods and multi-parameter algorithm by American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) was analyzed using Cohen′s Kappa analysis. Results:The curve of instantaneous flow rate of DMR showed unimodal pattern with the peak at mid-late systolic phase. The correlation of RVol acquired between PISA methods and CMR was moderate for PISA max and PISA pair ( r=0.77, 0.80, both P<0.001), whereas PISA M-mode presented strong correlation with CMR ( r=0.87, P<0.001). RVol acquired from PISA max was larger than that of CMR[(69.1±37.1) ml vs (49.0±29.0)ml, P=0.002]. Both PISA max and PISA pair were shown moderate agreement of diagnostic accuracy of sMR with ASE multi-parameters algorithm (RVol: κ=0.496, 0.525, both P<0.001; EROA: κ=0.570, 0.578, both P<0.001), while PISA M-mode presented strong agreement (RVol: κ=0.867 and EROA: κ=0.802, both P<0.001). Conclusions:Based on the unimodal pattern of instantaneous flow rate in patients with DMR, PISA max may significantly overestimate RVol, exposing a significant proportion of patients with DMR to unnecessary MR surgery. PISA M-mode presents better correlation and consistency with CMR on the quantification of RVol compared with PISA max and PISA pair, and may improve the diagnostic accuracy of quantification of sMR using PISA.

【Objective】 To explore the prediction of clinical red blood cells (RBCs) consumption under major public health emergencies, so as to provide scientific basis for blood collection and blood inventory management. 【Methods】 The clinical consumption of different types of RBCs in Yichang from 2001 to 2017 was analyzed and modeled using the recurrent neural network (RNN) model, and the clinical RBCs consumption between January 2019 and December 2021(36 months) were scientifically predicted. 【Results】 The RNN model showed good prediction performance. The root mean square errors (RMSE) of RNN prediction values of A, B, O, AB type of RBCs were 156.7, 133.4, 204.2 and 51.3, respectively, with the average relative errors (MRE) at 6.4%, 6.6%, 8.5% and 7.1%, respectively. The model predicted the changing trend of RBCs consumption during the first round of COVID-19 outbreak (January to June, 2020) and forecasted the lowest level of consumption in February 2020 and a subsequent recovery in growth. The prediction of RBCs consumption during the second round of COVID-19 pandemic (January to June, 2021) was of high accuracy. For example, the relative errors of RNN models for A type RBCs consumption were 5.2% in Feb 2021 (the lowest level, 1 621.5 U) and 2.5% in May 2021 (the highest level, 2 397.0 U). 【Conclusion】 The artificial intelligence RNN model can predict clinical RBCs consumption well under major public health emergencies.
