Objective To develop a postoperative precision nursing program for children with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS),so as to provide references for the improvement of nursing quality for children with OSAHS.Methods Literature in precision nursing for children with OSAHS was systematically reviewed and summarised based on precision nursing theory and a postoperative precision nursing program was drafted.Using the Delphi's Method,two rounds of expert consultation were conducted and the postoperative precision nursing program for children with OSAHS was revised and finalised.Results The response rates of the two rounds of expert consultation were 100.00%with the expert authority coefficient of 0.875.The Kendall coefficient of concordance(W)of levels 1,2 and 3 indices in the second round of expert consultation were 0.289,0.203,0.187,respectively(all P<0.01).The importance score of each inclicator ranged from 4.50～4.94.The coefficient of variations for the three-level indices ranged from 0.05 to 0.21.The finalised program composed 8 level-1 indices(postoperative position assessment,intervention,prevention and care of bleeding,maintaining postoperative airway patency,postoperative nausea and vomiting care,postoperative pain assessment and care,dietary care,complication prevention and care,discharge guidance),16 level-2 indices,and 22 level-3 indices.Conclusion The postoperative precision nursing program for the children with OSAHS is scientific,innovative and applicable.It provides clinical references for nursing of the children with OSAHS.

Diabetic chronic wounds are characterized by difficult healing, recurrent progression, and high rates of disability and mortality, which make their clinical treatment a medical challenge urgent to be addressed. However, the complex local microenvironment conditions of chronic wounds, such as high protease activity and persistent inflammatory responses, result in low bioavailability of exogenous cytokines (e.g., chemokine CXCL12) at the wound site, limiting their clinical application. In this study, we utilized Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 as the chassis to develop an efficient CXCL12 delivery system based on synthetic biology. Subsequently, we evaluated the role of the engineered probiotic strain in promoting the chronic wound healing in diabetic mice. Firstly, we fused the endogenous secretion signal peptide lp_3050 (SP_{lp_3050}) of L. plantarum WCFS1 and the commonly used secretion signal peptide usp45 (SP_usp45) of lactic acid bacteria with the reporter gene gusA and inserted them into the pTRK892-P_32(pgm) plasmid by molecular cloning. Then, we prepared the engineered strains and characterized the efficacy of the two signal peptides in driving the secretion of GusA. The results showed that SP_{lp_3050} efficiently drove the secretion of GusA in L. plantarum WCFS1, increasing the activity of GusA in the culture supernatant by nearly five times compared with that of SP_{lp_3050}. Further, we fused SP_{lp_3050} and codon-optimized CXCL12 gene to construct an engineered probiotic strain Lpw-CXCL12 for CXCL12 delivery. The results demonstrated that the content of CXCL12 in the culture supernatant reached (13.40±0.20) μg/mL. Finally, we found that the engineered probiotic strain Lpw-CXCL12 accelerated chronic wound healing in a diabetic mouse model. In conclusion, these results support an engineered probiotic strain in promoting diabetic chronic wound healing, providing a new strategy and technological foundation for the management of diabetic chronic wounds in the future.

Objective:To analyze the incidence of adverse treatment outcome of rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) patients and influencing factors in 9 provinces in China.Methods:The information about the basic characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of RR-TB patients registered from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2021 in 9 provinces (Beijing, Jilin, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Hubei, Henan, Yunnan and Guizhou) were collected from the tuberculosis information management sub-system of China Disease Control and Prevention Information System for a descriptive analysis, and the influencing factors of adverse treatment outcome were identified by binary logistic regression analysis.Results:In 18 204 RR-TB patients in this study a total of 6 852 had adverse treatment outcomes (37.64%). Treatment failure occurred in 1 031 patients, 1 272 patients died, 2 284 patients were lost to follow-up, and 2 265 patients were not evaluated. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that being man (a OR=1.54, 95% CI: 1.43-1.66), age ≥65 years (a OR=2.42, 95% CI: 2.20-2.67), being from other ethnic groups (a OR=1.18, 95% CI: 1.03-1.35), being farmer (a OR=1.22, 95% CI: 1.13-1.32), being retired with honours or being retired (a OR=1.16, 95% CI: 1.00-1.35) and being floating population (a OR=1.23, 95% CI: 1.13-1.34), re-treatment (a OR=1.33, 95% CI: 1.24-1.42), long-term treatment therapy (a OR=3.26, 95% CI: 2.52-4.23), living in central provinces (a OR=2.76, 95% CI: 2.55-2.99), living in western provinces (a OR=2.31, 95% CI: 2.08-2.57) were the influencing factors for adverse treatment outcome of RR-TB. Conclusions:The incidence of adverse outcomes in RR-TB patients in 9 provinces in China was higher from 2017 to 2021. There were many influencing factors associated with adverse treatment outcome in RR-TB patients, especially the area specific factors. The national tuberculosis control program should strengthen the follow-up and treatment management of RR-TB in men, the elderly, floating population, people in central and western provinces and other key groups, actively promote the short-term treatment program and improve the allocation of medical resources to reduce the influencing for adverse treatment outcomes in RR-TB patient.

This article reported the diagnosis and management of a case of a child with Kabuki syndrome. Kabuki syndrome is characterized by distinct facial features, skeletal anomalies, abnormal skin texture, and intellectual disabilities, and is primarily caused by heterozygous mutations in the lysine methyltransferase 2D(KMT2D) gene. The onset in this patient was insidious, presenting with short stature and intellectual impairment. Genetic testing identified a pathogenic heterozygous variant in the KMT2D gene. This article focuses on analyzing the necessity and appropriateness of growth hormone therapy in children with Kabuki syndrome, and includes a review of relevant literature to improve clinicians′ understanding of this rare condition.

Objective:To evaluate the long-term protective efficacy of the recombinant Chinese hamster ovary cell-derived hepatitis B vaccine（CHO-HepB）26 years post-vaccination in the rural China.Methods:Zhengding county，Hebei province was designated as a rural monitoring site for CHO-HepB efficacy. Study participants included individuals born between 1997 and 1999 who had completed the three-dose CHO-HepB primary series without booster doses. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in late 2024 using random sampling. Demographic and vaccination history data were collected via questionnaires，and hepatitis B virus（HBV）serological markers were detected using chemiluminescence. Historical surveillance data were integrated to infer infection statuses of HBsAg-positive individuals and evaluate longitudinal trends in anti-HBs seropositivity and antibody titers.Results:Among 178 participants（mean time since vaccination：26.2 years），the seroprevalence rates were 0.6% for HBsAg（95% CI：0.0%-1.6%），64.6% for anti-HBs（95% CI：57.6%-71.6%），and 1.1% for anti-HBc（95% CI：0.0%-2.7%）. Compared to the pre-vaccination baseline HBsAg positivity of 11.3% in children under 10 years of age，the estimated vaccine protection rate was 95%. Two notable cases were identified：one with concurrent HBsAg and anti-HBc positivity and one with anti-HBs and anti-HBc positivity，suggestive of transient HBV exposure（1999—2009）without chronicity. Natural immune boosting was inferred for the latter case based on anti-HBs titer dynamics. Longitudinal analysis of four prior cross-sectional surveys（2005，2009，2013，and 2017）revealed no significant upward trends in HBsAg and anti-HBc positivity（both P>0.05）over 26 years，while anti-HBs seropositivity declined significantly（ P<0.05）from 6 to 26 years post-vaccination. Conclusion:The CHO-HepB vaccine demonstrates sustained immunological persistence and robust long-term protection up to 26 years post-immunization. Continued emphasis on rigorous implementation of mother-to-child transmission prevention strategies is critical for future hepatitis B control.

Objective:To analyze the prevalence and risk factors of blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment among Han and Kazakh residents aged 50 years and older in Tacheng City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.Methods:This study is a cross-sectional survey conducted using cluster random sampling from October 2015 to June 2018 in Emin County, Tacheng City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The study included individuals aged 50 years and older to survey blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment. Ophthalmological examinations combined with questionnaires were conducted to gather basic information. The data collected from the questionnaires included general demographic information and health conditions. The results of the eye examinations were used to diagnose a total of 12 risk factors including cataracts, glaucoma, pterygium, suspected glaucoma, glaucoma, and refractive errors. These risk factors were analyzed in relation to blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment. Univariate analysis was conducted first, followed by logistic regression to identify the significant factors.Results:A total of 2 114 patients were included in the final analysis, among which the prevalence of moderate to severe visual impairment was 18.54% (392/2 114), and the prevalence of blindness was 2.74% (58/2 114). Univariate analysis showed that blindness and moderate to severe visual impairment were associated with age ( χ2 = 32.97, P < 0.05), hypertension ( χ2 = 3.48, P < 0.05), age-related cataract ( χ2 = 17.43, P < 0.05), glaucoma ( χ2 = 3.90, P < 0.05), macular degeneration ( χ2 = 16.04, P < 0.05), diabetes ( χ2 = 3.09, P < 0.05), pterygium ( χ2 = 2.57, P < 0.05), and fundus arteriosclerosis ( χ2 = 2.31, P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that moderate to severe visual impairment was correlated with age (50 to < 60 years: OR = 2.91, 95% CI: 0.44-13.45; 60 to < 70 years: OR = 3.52, 95% CI: 0.73-8.77; 70 to < 80 years: OR = 4.31, 95% CI: 0.85-8.96), ethnicity ( OR = 4.45, 95% CI: 0.56-5.95), sex ( OR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.34-0.64), age-related cataract ( OR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.05-2.65), glaucoma ( OR = 2.97, 95% CI: 1.67-5.30), and coronary heart disease ( OR = 2.56, P < 0.05). Blindness was correlated with age (70-79 years: OR = 1.54, 95% CI: 1.12-2.11), sex ( OR = 0.67, 95% CI: 0.34-0.64), glaucoma ( OR = 1.65, 95% CI: 0.42-6.49), diabetes ( OR = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.35-3.09), and coronary heart disease ( OR = 1.92, 95% CI: 1.07-3.43). Among these, age (70-79 years), glaucoma, diabetes, and coronary heart disease were identified as risk factors for blindness, while sex was observed as a protective factor against blindness in this region. Based on univariate and multivariate analyses as well as clinical practice, it was concluded that age (50 to < 60 years: OR = 4.42, 95% CI: 1.31-14.92; 60 to < 70 years: OR = 4.49, 95% CI: 1.70-11.84; 70 to < 80 years: OR = 3.19, 95% CI: 1.29-7.87), age-related cataract ( OR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.05-2.65), and glaucoma ( OR = 2.97, 95% CI: 1.67-5.30) were identified as significant risk factors for moderate to severe visual impairment. Glaucoma ( OR = 1.65, 95% CI: 0.42-6.49) and diabetes ( OR = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.35-3.09) were identified as the main risk factors for blindness in this region (both P < 0.05). Conclusions:In Tacheng City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the prevalence rates of moderate to severe visual impairment and blindness among Han and Kazakh residents are relatively high. Age-related cataracts and glaucoma are the primary causes, while age and diabetes are the main risk factors.
