ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical characteristics and imaging features of effectively treated pediatric Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia （MPP） with pulmonary consolidation， follow up the volume changes of pulmonary consolidation on lung CT scans of the affected children， and investigate the resolution patterns of pulmonary consolidation， and predict the time required for complete resolution. MethodsWe enrolled children with MPP and pulmonary consolidation hospitalized in the Department of General Pediatrics at Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between January 2018 and May 2024. Data collected included demographics， clinical symptoms， laboratory indicators， treatment status， imaging data during hospitalization， as well as follow-up lung CT data and reexamination intervals after discharge. Consolidation volumes were measured before and after the treatment to calculate the resolution rate and resolution velocity. Descriptive statistical analysis was performed on clinical characteristics， imaging features and consolidation resolution. ResultsAmong 238 children with MPP and lung consolidation， females slightly outnumbered males （the male to female ratio is 109 vs.129）， with a mean age of approximately 5 years. At admission， the median cough and fever durations were 7 （5-9） days and 6 （ 4-7） days， respectively. No significant increase was found in white blood cells count or lactate dehydrogenase（LDH）， and hypersensitive high-sensitivity C-reactive protein （CRP） slightly increased. Azithromycin was the first line of treatment in most cases， though second-line drugs increased in the recent two years due to the rising resistance. Bronchoalveolar lavage was performed in 66.8% （159/238） of children， and 33.2% （79/238） did not receive lavage. Consolidation was predominantly unilateral （206 unilateral vs. 32 bilateral） and right-sided （117 right-sided vs. 89 left-sided）. The ratio of consolidation volume to total lung volume was 4.48 （2.61-7.35） %， the consolidation resolution rate at follow-up was 96.08 （ 88.02-98.95） %， the reexamination interval was 17 （ 15-21） days， the resolution velocity was 2.15 （1.23-4.01） cm³/d， and the time to complete resolution was 18.96 （16.14-23.33） days . ConclusionsPulmonary consolidation in pediatric MPP achieves substantial resolution on CT within 2-3 weeks after effective clinical treatment. Initial consolidation volume and resolution velocity can predict the time required for complete resolution， thereby clinically guiding optimal CT follow-up scheduling.

Radiation mainly comes from medical radiation,industrial radiation,nuclear waste and atmospheric ultraviolet radiation,etc.,radiation is divided into ionizing radiation and non-ionizing radiation.Studying the effects of ionizing and non-ionizing radiation on drug metabolism,understanding the absorption and distribution of drugs in the body after radiation and the speed of elimination under radiation conditions can provide reasonable guidance for clinical medication.This article reviews the effects of radiation on the pharmacokinetics of different drugs,elaborates the changes of different pharmacokinetics under radiation state,and discusses the reasons for the changes.

Objective To investigate the imaging manifestations and pathogenesis of liver focal nodular hyperplasia-like(FNH-like)lesions in patients undergoing antineoplastic chemotherapy.Methods The clinical and imaging data of focal nodular hyperplasia(FNH)and FNH-like lesions patients confirmed by pathology after antineoplastic chemotherapy were analyzed retrospectively.Results A total of 67 FNH-like nodules were detected in 15 patients after antineoplastic chemotherapy,including multiple FNH nodules in 8 cases and sin-gle nodule in 7 cases.The mean detected time of FNH-like nodules was(18.9±11.7)months.Central scarring could be observed during follow-up in 5 nodules,and the rest showed atypical FNH features.Among 45 nodules examined with hepatocyte-specific con-trast medium,36 nodules showed slightly high signal in the hepatobiliary phase and other 9 nodules showed isosignal.Conclusion FNH-like lesions in patients during antineoplastic chemotherapy have certain imaging features,such as lack of central scarring,gener-ally smaller nodules,delayed enhancement,and hyperenhancement in hepatobiliary-specific phase,which are of significant value in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the disease.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC)is characterized by high recurrence or distant metastases rate and the prognosis is challenging.There is mounting evidence that tumor-infiltrating B cells(TIL-Bs)have a crucial,synergistic role in tumor control.However,little is known about the role TIL-Bs play in immune microenvironment and the way TIL-Bs affect the outcome of immune checkpoint blockade.Using single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)data from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database,the study identified distinct gene expression patterns in TIL-Bs.HNSCC samples were categorized into TIL-Bs inhibition and TIL-Bs activation groups using unsupervised clustering.This classification was further validated with TCGA HNSCC data,correlating with patient prognosis,immune cell infiltration,and response to immunotherapy.We found that the B cells activation group exhibited a better prognosis,higher immune cell infiltration,and distinct immune checkpoint levels,including elevated PD-L1.A prognostic model was also developed and validated,highlighting four genes as potential biomarkers for predicting survival outcomes in HNSCC patients.Overall,this study provides a foundational approach for B cells-based tumor classification in HNSCC,offering insights into targeted treatment and immunotherapy strategies.

Objective:The repair of small and medium-sized defects in the oral has always been a challenge,free skin flap and distal pedicled tissue flaps are difficult to meet clinical needs,and the traditional under-chin flap has the risk of donor-area injury.This study aims to investigate the efficacy of V-shaped folded submental flap in the repair of small-sized and medium-sized oral defects. Methods:The clinical data of 28 patients with oral defect lesions,who were hospitalized in the Department of Stomatology,Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from March 2019 to December 2022,were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into a V-shaped folded group(17 cases)and a conventional group(11 cases)according to different surgical methods.The V-shaped folded group was treated with a V-shaped folded submental flap for postoperative soft tissue repair,while the conventional group was treated with a conventional submental flap for repair.The postoperative follow-up time was 6-48 months.The survival status,repair time,and repair effect of the 2 groups were compared. Results:There was no significant difference in flap survival rate,flap size,flap preparation time,repair surgery time,and postoperative hospital stay between the 2 groups(all P>0.05).At 6 months after the surgery,the V-shaped folded group had no difficulty in raising the head or everting the lower lip,no"cat ear"deformity in the submental skin.Scars in the V-shaped folding group were hidden at the lower edge of the mandible.The wound aesthetics and functional scores in the V-shaped folded group were significantly higher than those in the conventional group(both P<0.05). Conclusion:The V-shaped foldable submental flap has the advantages of flexible design,simple preparation,reliable blood supply,and protection of the donor area,which can effectively protect the appearance of the chin and avoid functional disorders.

The patient,a male newborn,was admitted to the hospital 2 hours after birth due to prematurity(gestational age 27+5 weeks)and respiratory distress occurring 2 hours postnatally.After admission,the infant developed fever and elevated C-reactive protein levels.On the fourth day after birth,metagenomic next-generation sequencing of cerebrospinal fluid indicated a positive result for Mycoplasma hominis(9 898 reads).On the eighth day,a retest of cerebrospinal fluid metagenomics confirmed Mycoplasma hominis(56 806 reads).The diagnosis of purulent meningitis caused by Mycoplasma hominis was established,and the antibiotic treatment was switched to moxifloxacin[5 mg/(kg·day)]administered intravenously for a total of 4 weeks.After treatment,the patient's cerebrospinal fluid tests returned to normal,and he was discharged as cured on the 76th day after birth.This article focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of neonatal Mycoplasma hominis purulent meningitis,introducing the multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment of the condition in extremely preterm infants.[Chinese Journal of Contemporary Pediatrics,2024,26(4):432-436]

Objective:To construct an ultra-early limb movement program for elderly hip fracture surgery patients based on evidence-based practice and the Delphi method.Methods:From May to December 2023, the PIPOST Model (population, intervention, professional, outcome, setting, type of evidence) was used to develop evidence-based questions. Relevant databases were searched to obtain, summarize, and evaluate evidence related to ultra-early limb movement after hip fracture surgery in elderly patients. A draft of the movement program was created with the search timeline set until June 1, 2023. A total of 29 experts were invited to participate in two rounds of Delphi expert consultation to finalize the ultra-early limb movement program for elderly hip fracture surgery patients.Results:A total of 20 studies were included, consisting of six guidelines, four expert consensuses, three systematic reviews, and seven original research articles. The response rates for the two rounds of Delphi expert consultation were 100.00% (29/29) and 86.21% (25/29). The expert authority coefficients were 0.931 and 0.920, and the Kendall coordination coefficients were 0.205 and 0.112 (all P<0.01). The final ultra-early limb movement program for elderly hip fracture surgery patients included four modules and 39 operational items. Conclusions:This study develops an evidence-based, expert-validated ultra-early limb movement program for elderly hip fracture surgery patients, demonstrating its necessity, scientific basis, and practicality. The program provides a reference and guidance for clinical staff in facilitating ultra-early movement for hip fracture patients post-surgery.
