OBJECTIVE T o carry out the health economics evaluation and cost-benefit analysis of the type b Hae-mophilus influenzae(Hib)vaccination for the children who were hospitalized due to Hib infection so as to provide evidence for public health policies.METHODS The children who were diagnosed with Hib-related respiratory tract infections or meningitis and were hospitalized in respiratory medicine department,infection management depart-ment,emergency rooms and neurology department of Jiangxi Provincial Children's Hospital from Jan.1,2021 to Dec.31,2023 were recruited as the research subjects.Based on a 1∶1 matching condition,the matching variables included four items such as the same age for the admission to the hospital,same gender,same department and same grade of disease severity.The children for whom the primary immunization of Hib vaccination(including Hib monovalent vaccine and Hib-containing combination vaccine)were completed and the integrity of vaccination infor-mation could be checked out were assigned as the intervention group,while the children for whom the primary im-munization of Hib vaccination was not completed were chosen as the control group.The clinical data,vaccination data and the data such as length of hospital stay and hospitalization cost were collected from the children.The cost-benefit of the Hib vaccination among the children with Hib infection was observed.RESULTS A total of 622 hospi-talized children who were detected with Hib-positive respiratory tract infections or meningitis were enrolled in the study,and 73 children(20 children from infection management department,27 children from respiratory medi-cine department,26 children from emergency rooms)were finally included in the intervention group after matc-hing and multiple rounds of screening,73 children were chosen as the control group based on a 1∶1 matching con-dition.The male children accounted for 57.53％(42 cases)in both groups,and the female children accounted for 42.47％(31 cases)in both groups.With the respect to the length of hospital stay,it was 7.00(5.00,8.00)days in the intervention group,7.00(6.00,8.00)days in the control group(Z=-0.341,P=0.733).In terms of the hospitalization cost,it was 7 756.17(6 617.92,10 617.69)yuan in the intervention group,9 040.65(8 033.76,10 935.84)yuan in the control group(Z=-2.795,P=0.005).The cost of Hib vaccination was 343.03 yuan per capita in the intervention group,and the benefit-cost ratio(BCR)was 1∶3.74(343.03 yuan/1 284.48 yuan).CONCLUSIONS The Hib vaccination can save the hospitalization cost and has high cost effectiveness.It is sugges-ted that the Hib vaccination should be promoted and the coverage rate of Hib vaccination should be raised among the age-eligible children.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the incidence and risk factors of acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by vancomycin in pediatric patients.Methods:Databases of PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, Chinese Biomedical Database (CBM) were searched and articles about the risk factors of AKI induced by vancomycin in pediatric patients from inception to June 2024 were collected. Quality assessment was performed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for the included studies. Meta-analysis of the data for relevant exposure factors extracted from the included literature was conducted using Rev Man 5.4. The strength of association between the exposure factors and AKI was expressed using the odds ratio ( OR) and its 95% confidence interval ( CI). Results:A total of 13 studies were entered, involving 11 073 patients. Of them, 1 388 patients were in AKI group and 9 685 patients in non-AKI group. The incidence of AKI was 12.53%, ranging from 4.62% to 27.07%. The quality evaluation results showed that the 13 documents were all of high-quality (NOS score ≥7 points). Meta-analysis showed that admission to intensive care unit (ICU) ( OR=2.39, 95% CI: 1.59-3.59, P<0.001), vancomycin using time ≥7 d ( OR=2.19, 95% CI: 1.44-3.34 P=0.003), vancomycin steady-state trough concentration ≥15 mg/L ( OR=2.98, 95% CI: 2.22-4.01, P<0.001), combined with nephrotoxic drugs ≥2 kinds ( OR=2.92, 95% CI=1.84-4.64, P<0.001), combined with piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium ( OR=2.71, 95% CI: 1.72- 4.27, P<0.001), combined with carbapenem ( OR=2.36, 95% CI: 1.36-4.10, P=0.002), combined with aminoglycosides ( OR=1.78, 95% CI: 1.35-2.35, P<0.001), combined with loop diuretics ( OR=3.16, 95% CI: 2.36- 4.23, P<0.001), combined with amphotericin B ( OR=2.26, 95% CI: 1.35-3.79, P=0.002), combined with contrast medium ( OR=2.34, 95% CI: 1.04-5.25, P=0.040), and combined with aciclovir ( OR=1.74, 95% CI: 1.04-2.84, P=0.030) were all risk factors of AKI induced by vancomycin in pediatric patients. Conclusions:The incidence of vancomycin-related AKI in pediatric patients was 12.53%. Admission to ICU, vancomycin trough concentration ≥15 mg/L, medication time ≥7 d, and concomitant use of ≥2 nephrotoxic drugs and etc.were risk factors of vancomycin-related AKI.

Alzheimer's disease(AD)is a typical progressive neurodegenerative disease,mainly manifesting as severe cognitive dysfunction,and involving memory,thought processes,and emotion.The kynurenine pathway(KP)is one of the main metabolic pathways of tryptophan,which can be divided into neurotoxicity and neuroprotective branches.Increasing evidence has suggested that KP is involved in the pathogenesis of AD.This review considers the role of KP in the pathogenesis of AD,with reference to the relevant literature on KP interventions in AD in the PubMed database.The result will provide an important reference for the use of KP as a target for AD drug development.

AIM: To explore the therapeutic effect of oral Xuefu Zhuyu Pill combined with intravitreal injection of aflibercept in the treatment of retinal vein occlusion(RVO).METHODS: A total of 80 patients(80 eyes)with RVO admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to March 2024 were prospectively selected. According to the treatment method, they were divided into a control group of 40 patients treated with intravitreal injection of aflibercept, and an observation group of 40 patients treated with oral Xuefu Zhuyu Pill combined with intravitreal injection of aflibercept. The efficacy, TCM syndrome score, retinal microcirculation parameters, macular edema(ME), and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups of patients in the treatment of RVO.RESULTS: All patients have completed follow-up. The clinical effective rate of the observation group after treatment was 95%, obviously higher than that of the control group(80%; χ2=4.114, P=0.043). After treatment for 3 mo, the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores, foveal avascular area(FAZ)area, FAZ circumference, macular central retinal thickness, and neovascularization leakage area of both groups decreased, the overall blood flow density of the superficial capillary plexus(SCP)and deep capillary plexuses(DCP)increased, and the observation group showed better results than the control group(all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the occurrence of adverse reactions between the two groups during the treatment period(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Oral administration of Xuefu Zhuyu Pill combined with intravitreal injection of aflibercept in the treatment of RVO can improve retinal microcirculation, enhance vision, restore ocular blood circulation, improve bleeding, promote ME absorption, and improve clinical efficacy.

Objective: To investigate the Alzheimer's disease (AD) influencing factors among the elderly, so as to provide a basis for early prevention and intervention. Methods: From March to June 2024, participants aged 60 years and above from a sub-district in Haishu District, Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province were selected using a convenience sampling method. Data on demographics, lifestyle, and health status were collected through questionnaire surveys. Depressive symptoms were evaluated using the short-form Geriatric Depression Scale. The Chinese Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) was used for the initial screening of AD, and individuals who screened positive were further diagnosed by psychiatrists. Factors affecting AD among the elderly were analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 3 644 individuals were surveyed, comprising 1 526 males (41.88%) and 2 118 females (58.12%). The mean age was (71.85±7.44) years. AD was detected in 200 cases, with a detection rate of 5.49%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that individuals aged ≥65 years (65-<70 years, OR=3.012, 95%CI: 1.007-9.012; 70-<75 years, OR=3.131, 95%CI: 1.059-9.260; 75-<80 years, OR=5.779, 95%CI: 1.989-16.784; ≥80 years, OR=16.810, 95%CI: 5.926-47.685), those who were unmarried, divorced, or widowed (OR=1.973, 95%CI: 1.383-2.815), those with hearing loss (OR=1.573, 95%CI: 1.128-2.193), those with diabetes mellitus (OR=1.958, 95%CI: 1.362-2.814), and those with depressive symptoms (OR=4.143, 95%CI: 2.997-5.728) had a higher risk of AD. Conversely, individuals with an educational level of primary school or above (primary school, OR=0.579, 95%CI: 0.401-0.835; junior high school or above, OR=0.438, 95%CI: 0.259-0.741), and those who engaged in regular physical exercise (OR=0.414, 95%CI: 0.264-0.649) had a lower risk of AD. Conclusions The detection rate of AD was relatively high among the elderly in Haishu District. AD among the elderly was related to age, educational level, marital status, physical exercise, hearing loss, diabetes mellitus, and depressive symptoms.
