Objective To evaluate the early efficacy and safety of the regimens containing delamanid and linezolid in the treatment of rifampicin resistant tuberculosis(RR-TB).Methods A total of 47 patients diagnosed with RR-TB at Public Health Clinical Center of Chengdu from August 2020 to December 2021 were enrolled,including 22 cases(46.8％)of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis(MDR-TB),8 cases(17.0％)of RR-TB,and 17 cases(36.2％)of pre-extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis(pre-XDR-TB).All patients were treated with a regimen based on delamanid and linezolid.The efficacy and safety were evaluated at 24 weeks of treatment.Results Among the 47 patients,46(97.9％)completed 24 weeks of treatment and 1(2.1％)was lost to follow-up.At 24 weeks,the sputum culture conversion rate was 100％in the 43 patients with positive baseline sputum culture.The median conversion time was 2(2,8)weeks.Imaging examination showed absorption in 46 patients(97.9％).Overall,40 patients(85.1％)experienced varying degrees of adverse events(AEs)within 24 weeks.Eleven patients(23.4％)experienced AEs possibly related to delamanid,mainly including QTcF interval prolongation(12.8％),gastrointestinal reactions(8.5％),dizziness(2.1％),headache(2.1％),and allergy(2.1％).Six patients permanently discontinued delamanid due to AEs including gastrointestinal reactions(6.4％),prolonged QTcF interval(2.1％),severe dizziness(2.1％),and drug allergy(2.1％).Patients with low baseline CD4+T lymphocyte counts(OR=0.991,95％CI:0.984-0.999)were more likely to experience delamanid-related AEs.Thirty patients(63.8％)experienced AEs possibly related to linezolid,including myelosuppression(55.3％),peripheral neuropathy(6.4％),optic neuritis occurred(2.1％),and allergy(2.1％).Three patients(6.4％)discontinued linezolid permanently due to severe anemia,peripheral neuropathy,and allergy.Conclusions The treatment regimens containing delamanid and linezolid for RR-TB showed a high sputum culture conversion rate and good tolerance at 24 weeks.Attention should be paid to gastrointestinal reactions and cellular immunity during treatment.

Objective:To analyze the cases referred to a higher-level hospital from the Department of Neonatology in a primary hospital, and evaluate the efficiency of clinical works related to the referrals.Methods:Data of neonates admitted to the Department of Neonatology at Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Dabu County from January 2018 to December 2020 and referred to the superior hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 1 670 neonates were included and 128 neonates were referred.The median age of the neonates referred was 0.5 hours(0 hours, 25 days), the median gestational age was 38 + 3(29 + 1, 42 + 4) weeks, the median weight was 3 000(1 250, 4 800) g, and the transport distance was 78 km.Twenty-four cases were assessed as critical cases before the referral, 125 cases were improved and discharged after treatment in the superior hospital, and three cases died.The referral rate in 2018, 2019 and 2020 showed a downward trend year by year (10.3%, 7.6% and 4.0%, respectively), and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=14.362, P=0.001). The proportion of critical cases in referral cases increased year by year (9.4%, 23.9% and 38.9%, respectively), and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=9.289, P=0.010). The incidence of critical case was higher in those whose mothers didn′t have regular prenatal examination during pregnancy( χ2=5.129, P=0.032). Conclusion:The ability of neonatal treatment in primary hospitals has been improved.The neonates need to be referred and critical cases are not rare in primary hospitals.More attention should be paid to the safety and effectiveness of the regional transport network.Also, enhancing the health awareness of residents and improving the primary medical technics are important to maximize the life safety and optimal transition of newborns.

Objective    To study the clinical characteristics of overseas imported and related local COVID-19 patients in Chengdu. Methods    Fifty overseas imported patients who were Chinese and 14 related local patients with COVID-19 who were admitted to Public Health Clinical Center of Chengdu from November to December 2020 were selected. The epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations, auxiliary examination, treatment and prognosis were summarized and analyzed. Results    The local group were older, and they were mostly elderly and females (P≤0.05). Compared with the imported group, the proportion of the local group was higher in heart disease and tumor. More patients had cough, fever and expectoration symptoms (P≤0.05). C-reactive protein, fasting blood glucose and fibrinogen were higher, and the lymphocyte count, blood platelet count, CD3+ T lymphocyte count, CD4+ T lymphocyte count, CD8+ T lymphocyte count were lower. The positive rate of novel coronavirus total antibody, IgG antibody and IgM antibody in the imported group were higher than those in the local group (P≤0.05). The negative conversion time of the median nucleic acid was shorter than that of local patients (P≤0.05). Conclusion    There are differences in sex ratio, age, complications, clinical manifestations, lymphocyte measurement value, T lymphocyte count and negative conversion time of nucleic acid between overseas imported and local COVID-19 patients in Chengdu. The local patients are mostly elderly and have more complicated conditions, but all of them have good prognosis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of daily living activity training on the self-care ability of children with cerebral palsy.Methods Sixty children with cerebral palsy were equally divided into control group and observation group. The former group were managed with rehabilitative therapy and the latter were given ADL training consecutively for 6 months apart from rehabilitative therapy.The two groups were compared in terms of score on ADL after 6 months treatment.Results There was no difference in the score on activities of daily living between the two groups before intervention (P>0.05),but the score after treatment in the obsertation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.01).Conclusion The ADL training is effective for improving the self-care ability of children with cerebral palsy and promoting the rehabilitation of children.
