Objective: The impact of prophylactic salpingectomy on the prevention of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains unclear, particularly in Asian populations where data is lacking. In this systematic review and meta-analysis study, we sought to assess whether prophylactic salpingectomy could reduce the incidence of ovarian cancer in the general population of multiple ethnicities. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted using PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science to assess the effectiveness of salpingectomy, bilateral salpingectomy (BS), and unilateral salpingectomy (US) in reducing the risk of EOC and evaluating postoperative outcomes. Results: The final analyses included 6 eligible trials (5,747,056 patients), including 1 cohort study and 5 case-control studies. The analyses of these studies demonstrated that women who underwent salpingectomy had a significantly reduced risk of EOC compared to those who did not receive salpingectomy (odds ratio [OR]=0.63; 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.45–0.89; p=0.007). Five studies (5,746,469 patients) indicated a significant reduction in EOC risk among patients who underwent BS (OR=0.48; 95% CI=0.33–0.69; p<0.001).On the other hand, in the analysis of 4 studies (5,745,887 patients) that examined US, the association with EOC risk was not significant despite the protective trend (OR=0.82; 95% CI=0.64–1.06; p=0.12). Conclusion Our results indicate BS is an effective strategy for reducing the risk of sporadic EOC, but the results did not lead to the same conclusion for patients who underwent US. When a candidate or patient is undergoing a hysterectomy or has other benign diseases, prophylactic BS may be a safe surgical procedure that carries future benefits in terms of EOC risk.

Objective:To analyze the impact of lymph node dissection on textbook outcomes (TO) and the prognosis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 376 ICC patients who underwent hepatectomy in 4 medical centers, including Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University et al, from December 2011 to December 2017 were collected. There were 242 males and 134 females, aged 57(range, 48-63)years. According to the criteria of TO, patients were classified as two cate-gories, including patients achieving TO and not achieving TO. Measurement data with normal distri-bution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range) or M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test, Yates adjusted chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the non-parameter rank sum test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the Logistic regression model. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curve. Survival analysis was conducted using the Log-rank test. Results:(1) TO situations. Of the 376 ICC patients who underwent hepatectomy, 199 cases achieved TO, including 40 cases with lymph node dissection and 159 cases without lymph node dissection, 177 cases did not achieve TO, including 76 cases with lymph node dissection and 101 cases without lymph node dissection. (2) Influencing factors for TO after hepatectomy of ICC patients. Results of multivariate analysis showed that lymph node dissection, microvascular invasion, nerve invasion and the volume of intraoperative blood loss >800 mL were independent risk factors for achieving TO after hepatec-tomy of ICC patients ( odds ratio=2.22, 2.95, 3.58, 4.09,95% confidence interval as 1.34-3.69, 1.43-6.07, 1.40-9.17, 1.35-12.43, P<0.05). Of the 116 patients with lymph node dissection, 40 cases achieved TO, 103 cases achieved R 0 resection, 38 cases had postoperative complications, 67 cases had delayed hospital stay. The above indicators were 159, 255, 41, 65 of 260 patients without lymph node dissection. There were significant differences in the above indicators between patients with and without lymph node dissection ( χ2=22.90, 15.16, 13.95, 37.78, P<0.05). (3) Follow-up. All the 376 patients were followed up for 19(range, 1-74)months. Of 199 patients achieving TO, the 1-, 2-and 3-year survival rates of 40 patients with lymph node dissection were 54.0%, 36.6% and 26.1%, respectively, versus 67.7%, 42.7% and 34.4% of 159 patients without lymph node dissection, showing no significant difference between them ( χ2=1.89, P>0.05). Of 177 patients not achieving TO, the 1-, 2-and 3-year survival rates of 76 cases with lymph node dissection were 58.9%, 25.7% and 10.3%, respectively, versus 53.0%, 28.5% and 17.2% of 101 cases without lymph node dissection, showing no significant difference between them ( χ2=0.25, P>0.05). Conclusions:Lymph node dissec-tion, microvascular invasion, nerve invasion and the volume of intraoperative blood loss >800 mL are independent risk factors for achieving TO after hepatectomy of ICC patients. Lymph node dissec-tion may increase the postoperative complication rate, prolong the hospital stay and decrease the rate of achieving TO. However, it does not affect the prognosis of patients.

Objective To provide references for reasonable equipping of airborne medical equipment oriented to different tasks by constructing a medical equipment requirement model for the helicopter evacuation and rescue team.Methods Relevant basic data were collected and organized on time for routine and emergency medical treatment and elementary medical equipment requirements for types of medical treatment.AnyLogic multi-agent modeling was used to established a medical equipment requirement model for the helicopter evacuation and rescue team,with the casualty,equipment and medical personnel as the agent modules and the logical relationship-based access rules between the agents.An example was taken with a Z-8 helicopter transformed into an ambulance platform to transport the rescue team and casualties,in which a variety of evacuation tasks with multi combinations of light and serious casualties were simulated and the model developed was used to record and analyze the data on waiting time for medical treatment,completion rate,personnel utilization rate and equipment requirement during 100 times of simulation flight.Results The model developed could provide generalized medical equipment allocation programs for the helicopter evacuation and rescue team to complete a variety of evacuation tasks in terms of electronic device,treatment equipment,auxiliary instrument and medical consumables.Conclusion The model developed facilitates rational allocation of medical equipment for the helicopter evacuation and rescue team.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(5):28-33]

Objective To investigate the role of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 2(NOD2)modified by palmitoyltransferase(ZDHHC5)in brain injury after cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR)in mice.Methods Twenty-four male C57BL/6J mice were divided into the blank group,the control group,the ZDHHC5-si group and the NOD2-si group,with 6 mice in each group.Except for the blank group without any treatment,CPR modeling was performed in the other three groups.At 24 h before CPR,mice in the ZDHHC5-si group and the NOD2-si group were injected with ZDHHC5 siRNA and NOD2 siRNA via tail vein,respectively.The modified neurological deficit scale(mNSS)was used to evaluate the neurological function at 24 h,48 h and 72 h in each group.Blood samples and brain tissue were collected 72 h after modeling.Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(qPCR)was used to detect ZDHHC5 and NOD2 in brain tissue.The protein expression levels of IL-1β,TNF-α and IL-6 in plasma were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Colorimetric method and thiobarbituric acid(TBA)method were used to detect protein expression levels of MDA and MPO in brain tissue,respectively.Western blot assay was used to detect expression levels of Cleaved Caspase-3,ZDHHC5 and NOD2 in brain tissue.HE pathological sections of brain tissue were observed under light microscope.The pathological sections of brain tissue were observed by TUNEL under fluorescence microscope.Results Compared with the blank group,the mNSS score,the expression levels of IL-1β,TNF-α,IL-6,MDA and MPO,and the protein expression levels of Cleaved Caspase-3,ZDHHC5 and NOD2 were significantly increased(P＜0.05),and brain tissue damage and cell apoptosis were aggravated in the other three groups.Compared with the control group,the above indicators were significantly decreased in the ZDHHC5-si group and the NOD2-si group(P＜0.05),and brain tissue damage and cell apoptosis were significantly attenuated.Compared with the NOD2-si group,the above parameters were significantly decreased(P＜0.05),and brain tissue damage and cell apoptosis were further attenuated in the ZDHHC5-si group.Conclusion In the mouse CPR model,NOD2 can produce palmitoylated NOD2 after regulated by ZDHHC5,which further promotes the release of inflammatory factors and causes neuronal apoptosis,ultimately damaging brain tissue and affecting neurological function.

Objective To investigate the application of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)in children and the risk factors for post-ERCP pancreatitis(PEP).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 66 children,aged≤16 years,who underwent ERCP for pancreaticobiliary diseases at the Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from September 2013 to September 2023.The incidence rate of PEP and the risk factors for the development of PEP were analyzed.Results A total of 78 ERCP procedures were performed on 66 children,with 5 diagnostic ERCPs,69 therapeutic ERCPs,and 4 failed procedures.The success rate of ERCP operations was 95%(74/78).There were 17 cases of PEP in total,with an incidence rate of 22%.In the PEP group,the proportion of children with normal preoperative bilirubin and the proportion of guidewire insertion into the pancreatic duct during surgery were higher than in the non-PEP group(P<0.05).The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that guidewire insertion into the pancreatic duct was an independent risk factor for PEP(P<0.05).Conclusions With the increasing application of ERCP in children with pancreaticobiliary diseases,it is important to select an appropriate intubation technique during surgery to avoid blindly entering the guidewire into the pancreatic duct and reduce the occurrence of PEP.

Objective To evaluate the process risk of the implementation of prevention and control measures for surgical site infection(SSI)after colorectal surgery,and explore the application effect of failure mode and effects analysis(FMEA)based on action priority.Methods FMEA based on action priority was adopted to evaluate the whole process of the implementation of prevention and control measures for SSI after colorectal surgery.Prioritiza-tion ranking was conducted according to whether optimized measures were taken.Standard-reaching rate of comp-liance to SSI prevention and control measures as well as SSI incidence before and after the implementation of FMEA were compared.Results After evaluation,there were 7 high-priority and 22 medium-priority prevention and control measures for SSI.The control of medium-priority measures was strengthened,with a focus on developing further preventive and detectable measures for high-priority measures.The re-evaluation results after improvement showed that 7 high-priority measures have been downgraded to medium priority,and 16 medium-priority measures have been downgraded to low priority.Standard-reaching rate of compliance to SSI prevention and control measures in-creased from 77.15％(2 566/3 326)to 92.47％(3 096/3 348),and SSI incidence decreased from 6.04％(58/960)to 2.54％(60/2 364).Conclusion Application of FMEA based on action priority can effectively evaluate the risk of prevention and control process of SSI after colorectal surgery,and adopting preventive risk control measures accord-ing to the current situation can reduce the incidence of SSI after colorectal surgery.

Objective To understand the change in distribution and antimicrobial resistance of bacteria isolated from blood specimens of Hunan Province,and provide for the initial diagnosis and treatment of clinical bloodstream infection(BSI).Methods Data reported from member units of Hunan Province Antimicrobial Resistance Survei-llance System from 2012 to 2021 were collected.Bacterial antimicrobial resistance surveillance method was imple-mented according to the technical scheme of China Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System(CARSS).Bacteria from blood specimens and bacterial antimicrobial susceptibility testing results were analyzed by WHONET 5.6 soft-ware and SPSS 27.0 software.Results A total of 207 054 bacterial strains were isolated from blood specimens from member units in Hunan Province Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System from 2012 to 2021,including 107 135(51.7％)Gram-positive bacteria and 99 919(48.3％)Gram-negative bacteria.There was no change in the top 6 pathogenic bacteria from 2012 to 2021,with Escherichia coli(n=51 537,24.9％)ranking first,followed by Staphylococcus epidermidis(n=29 115,14.1％),Staphylococcus aureus(n=17 402,8.4％),Klebsiella pneu-moniae(17 325,8.4％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(n=4 010,1.9％)and Acinetobacter baumannii(n=3 598,1.7％).The detection rate of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)decreased from 30.3％in 2015 to 20.7％in 2021,while the detection rate of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(MRCNS)showed an upward trend year by year(57.9％-66.8％).No Staphylococcus was found to be resistant to vancomy-cin,linezolid,and teicoplanin.Among Gram-negative bacteria,constituent ratios of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 43.9％-53.9％and 14.2％-19.5％,respectively,both showing an upward trend(both P＜0.001).Constituent ratios of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii were 3.6％-5.1％and 3.0％-4.5％,respectively,both showing a downward trend year by year(both P＜0.001).From 2012 to 2021,resistance rates of Escherichia coli to imipenem and ertapenem were 1.0％-2.0％and 0.6％-1.1％,respectively;presenting a downward trend(P＜0.001).The resistant rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae to meropenem and ertapenem were 7.4％-13.7％and 4.8％-6.4％,respectively,presenting a downward trend(both P＜0.001).The resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii to carbapenem antibiotics were 7.1％-15.6％and 34.7％-45.7％,respectively.The trend of resistance to carbapenem antibiotics was relatively stable,but has de-creased compared with 2012-2016.The resistance rates of Escherichia coli to the third-generation cephalosporins from 2012 to 2021 were 41.0％-65.4％,showing a downward trend year by year.Conclusion The constituent ra-tio of Gram-negative bacillus from blood specimens in Hunan Province has been increasing year by year,while the detection rate of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacillus remained relatively stable in the past 5 years,and the detection rate of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus has shown a downward trend.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
