Objective:To investigate the methodological differences in the detection, the inflammatory markers and the pathogenic epidemiological characteristics of influenza A virus in clinical laboratories, in order to provide more diagnostic and epidemiological data for diagnosis and prevention for children with influenza A.Methods:A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted to collect 96 731 patients with suspected influenza A from January 2016 to October 2024 in Nanyang City Center Hospital from the Clinical Laboratory Testing Information System, including 5 731 patients with confirmed influenza A, aged 5.2 (2.8, 43.7) years old. We analyzed the distribution of influenza A patients from age and mixed infections, the relationship between patient age and positive detection rate by restricted cubic spline (RCS), analyzed differences in testing methods used Kappa consistency testing and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, established a model of inflammatory markers by logistic regression, as well as developed a prediction model and also the mutation of the hemagglutinin (HA) sequence of the influenza A subtype H3N2 virus using evolutionary tree analysis.Results:RCS analysis showed an inverted 'S' shaped non-linear relationship between the positive detection rate of influenza A and the age groups of the patients. Among the mixed infections, 1.43%(1 352/94 867) of the cases were combined with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. The Kappa values of reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and serological indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) for detecting influenza A in nasopharyngeal swabs and alveolar lavage fluid in clinical laboratories were 0.632 and 0.809, respectively, and those of magnetic particle chemiluminescence assay were 0.614 and 0.668, respectively, and the area under curves in ROC curve of IFA and RT-PCR were 0.869 and 0.792, respectively. The inflammatory indexes were usually elevated in severe children compared with mild children. By binary logistic regression model analysis, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, D-dimer/fibrinogen and prognosis nutrition index were the risk factors and serum amyloid A/C reactive protein ratio was the protective factor for severe children with influenza A, and the OR values of the above factors were 1.760, 7.076, 1.045, and 0.719, respectively, and P<0.01. By the Bayesian Interdiction Criterion, the optimal seasonal autoregressive moving average mixed model for influenza A epidemics was ARIMA (1, 1, 1) (2, 1, 2) 12 with the highest prediction accuracy of 98.63%. The seven strains of H3N2 all belonged to the same isoforms, with nucleotide similarity of the HA gene ranging from 99.5% to 99.9%, and the glycosylation site, receptor-binding site, and the conserved amino acid residue Glycosylation sites, receptor binding sites and conserved amino acid residues remained unchanged. HA sequence analysis showed that the prevalent strains in Nanyang had undergone mutation to different degree compared with the vaccine strains. Conclusion:Scientific and rational testing and characteristic inflammatory markers in the clinical laboratory are of great clinical value in the diagnosis of children with severe influenza A. At the same time, the epidemiological monitoring of influenza A variants should be strengthened.

Objective:To explore the internal mechanism by which self-evaluation influences non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) in adolescent patients with depressive disorder.Methods:Clinical data from 214 adolescent patients with depressive disorder hospitalized at Suzhou Guangji Hospital from March 2022 to January 2024 were prospectively collected. According to the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for NSSI, participants were divided into an NSSI group (158 cases [38 males, 120 females, age 12-17 (14.2±1.5) years]) and a non-NSSI group (56 cases [20 males, 36 females, age 12-18 (14.5±1.8) years]). A self-developed basic information questionnaire was used to collect demographic data. Standardized tools including the Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment (IPPA), Self-acceptance Questionnaire (SAQ), and Perceived Stress Scale-10 (PSS-10) were used to assess their depression level, parental attachment level, self-evaluation/acceptance level, perceived stress level, and other relevant psychological characteristics. Differences in psychological characteristics between the two groups were compared. Logistic regression, correlation analysis, and mediation effect models were used to explore the relationships between variables and NSSI and their mechanisms.Results:The NSSI group had significantly higher total scores on the SDS (41.3±7.7 vs. 34.4±9.3) and PSS-10 (25.5±6.1 vs. 21.3±6.5) than the non-NSSI group ( F=29.12, F=18.17, respectively; all P<0.001). Conversely, the NSSI group had significantly lower total scores on the SAQ (31.2±8.8 vs. 35.9±8.9) and IPPA (56.3±13.6 vs. 63.4±13.8) compared to the non-NSSI group ( F=11.24, F=10.84, respectively; all P<0.001). Stepwise logistic regression analysis identified depression level (SDS total score, OR=1.12, 95% CI: 1.05-1.19), self-evaluation (SAQ subscale score, OR=1.17, 95% CI: 1.04-1.31), and perceived stress (PSS-10 total score, OR=1.11, 95% CI: 1.01-1.22) as predictors of NSSI (all P<0.05). Chain mediation analysis showed that self-evaluation had a significant positive direct effect ( β=0.025, P<0.01) and a negative indirect effect ( β=-0.038, P<0.001) on NSSI, with a negative total effect ( β=-0.012, P<0.05). The indirect effect was realized through three pathways: a single mediation pathway of self-evaluation via perceived stress ( β=-0.016), a single mediation pathway of self-evaluation via depression ( β=-0.011), and a chain mediation pathway of self-evaluation via perceived stress and depression ( β=-0.011) (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Self-evaluation influences NSSI behavior through a dual mechanism involving both direct and indirect effects. The indirect protective effect is primarily achieved by reducing perceived stress and depression levels.

Objective:To access the relation of aortic arch calcification (AoAC) volume based on parathyroid SPECT/CT imaging with hungry bone syndrome (HBS) in patients with renal secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) after parathyroidectomy (PTX).Methods:From June 2015 to May 2024, the imaging and clinical data of 89 renal SHPT patients (52 males, 37 females, age: (51.5±10.3) years) who underwent parathyroid 99Tc m-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) SPECT/CT in Affiliated Jiangyin Hospital of Nantong University were retrospectively analyzed. The AoAC volume was measured by Volume software of SPECT/CT system. The patients were divided into HBS group and non-HBS group, and the independent-sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare differences of various indicators between the two groups. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of HBS. Results:All 89 patients underwent PTX successfully, 50 patients (56.2%) were with HBS and 39 patients (43.8%) were not. The differences of age ((47.9±9.9) vs (56.1±9.0) years, t=-3.98, P<0.001), AoAC volume (0.36(0.02, 1.30) vs 1.57(0.37, 3.77)cm 3, Z=-3.17, P=0.002), preoperative alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (345.75(218.50, 632.50) vs (203.13±114.57)U/L, Z=-4.69, P<0.001), preoperative parathyroid hormone (147.85(109.83, 227.40) vs (135.58±51.14)pmol/L, Z=-2.34, P=0.019) and preoperative serum corrected calcium ((2.38±0.21) vs 2.54(2.39, 2.62)mmol/L, Z=-3.09, P=0.002) between HBS group and non-HBS group were significant. Logistic regression analysis showed that the AoAC volume ((odds ratio, OR)=0.628, 95% CI: 0.427-0.924, P=0.018), preoperative ALP ( OR=1.007, 95% CI: 1.002-1.012, P=0.010) and preoperative serum corrected calcium ( OR=0.041, 95% CI: 0.003-0.545, P=0.016) were independent risk factors for HBS. Conclusion:The AoAC volume measured by preoperative SPECT/CT can be used for an effective criteria of evaluating HBS in patients with renal SHPT after PTX, and AoAC volume may be one of independent risk factors for HBS.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of minimally invasive double anchoring combined with percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for Kümmell disease.Methods:The clinical data of 24 patients with Kümmell disease who were treated with minimally invasive double anchoring combined with PKP in Cangzhou People's Hospital from October 2022 to March 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, there were 2 T 10 vertebrae, 5 T 11 vertebrae, 7 T 12 vertebrae, 6 L 1 vertebrae, and 4 L 2 vertebrae. There were 6 males and 18 females. The average age was 72.05±4.52 years (range, 66-80 years). The bone mineral density T value was -3.41±0.77 (range, -2.5-4.5). The stages of Li's Kümmell disease included 13 cases of stage II and 11 cases of stage III. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and volume of bone cement injected were recorded. The vertebral index, vertebral angle and Cobb angle of diseased segment were measured before and after operation. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to assess the degree of pain, the Oswestry disability index (ODI) and the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) low back pain scale were used to assess spinal function. The Medical Outcome Study short form 36 item health survey (SF-36) was used to assess the general health status of the patients. The postoperative symptom recovery was evaluated by Odom criteria. Results:The mean operative time of the 24 patients was 35.32±6.86 min, the injected volume of bone cement was 4.39±1.72 ml, and the intraoperative blood loss was 16.56±5.21 ml. All patients were followed up for 10 to 14 months, with an average of 11.7 months. Postoperative CT examination showed that the screw positions were satisfactory, and no loosening or displacement of bone cement mass occurred. On the first day after surgery, the vertebral body index, vertebral body angle and Cobb angle of diseased segment were 77.71%±2.75%, 12.40°±1.53° and 25.77°±4.49°, respectively, which represented significant improvements from the preoperative values of 43.09%±5.66%, 22.12°±2.92° and 46.98°±5.68° before surgery ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the values were 76.18%±2.32%, 12.41°±2.53°, 26.14°±4.87°, respectively, which were significantly improved compared with those before surgery ( P<0.05), but there was no statistical significance compared with the first day after surgery ( P>0.05). The VAS, ODI and JOA scores on the first day after surgery were 2.11±0.87 points, 22.46±5.49 points and 27.68±2.45 points, respectively, which were significantly improved compared with those before surgery 7.50±0.98 points, 76.25±8.56 points and 14.96±4.91 points ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the values were 2.26±0.88, 23.87±3.25 and 26.58±2.77, respectively, which were significantly improved compared with those before surgery ( P<0.05), and there was no statistical significance compared with the first day after surgery ( P>0.05). All 24 patients completed SF-36 scale assessment, and the results showed that there were statistically significant differences in physiological function, physiological role, physical pain, general health status, social function scores and mental health between the patients before surgery and the last follow-up ( P<0.05), while there were no statistically significant differences in vitality and emotional function ( P>0.05). At the last follow-up, the Odom criteria showed excellent results in 18 cases, good in 4 cases, and fair in 2 cases. Conclusions:The application of minimally invasive double anchoring (single nail fixation) combined with PKP in the treatment of Kümmell disease can effectively prevent the loosening and displacement of bone cement masses, and the fixation effect is satisfactory, which can restore the height of the injured vertebrum, reduce kyphosis and improve spinal function. The clinical symptoms of the patients were significantly improved, and the quality of life was enhanced.
