Objective:To explore the correlation of different HBV DNA loads with peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in patients with chronic hepatitis B.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 519 patients with chronic hepatitis B admitted to the Fifth Medical Center of the General Hospital of the People′s Liberation Army from April 2019 to June 2024 were included. The patients were divided into high, medium, and low viral load groups and a negative group based on HBV DNA load. Another 100 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations during the same period were recruited as the control group. The quantities of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets and IL-6 levels were compared among the groups. Meanwhile, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels were recorded and compared among the groups. The correlation of HBV DNA levels with lymphocyte subsets and IL-6 was analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis.Results:HBV DNA loads were negatively correlated with the counts of CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 +, CD19 +, and CD56 + lymphocyte subsets (correlation coefficients r were -0.483, -0.508, -0.524, -0.573, and -0.561, respectively; all P<0.001) and positively correlated with IL-6 levels ( r=0.862, P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the counts of each lymphocyte subset were higher in the high, medium, and low viral load groups ( P<0.05). In the HBV DNA-negative chronic hepatitis B group, the counts of CD8 + and CD19 + lymphocyte subsets were significantly higher [712.32(526.00,898.64) and 495.62(345.74,645.50) cells/μl] than those in the control group [612.10(479.89,744.31) and 470.32 (396.00,544.64) cells/μl] ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The degree of HBV replication activity in patients with chronic hepatitis B is associated with the immune status of the body, and negatively correlated with the quantities of lymphocyte subsets and positively correlated with IL-6 levels.

Objective:To investigate the related factors that affect the timing and prognosis of early tracheostomy in patients with multiple rib fractures.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted on medical data of 222 patients with multiple rib fractures who underwent tracheostomy in Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University from February 2013 to October 2019,including 160 males and 66 females,with the age of 18 to 85 years [(49.5 ± 16.3)years]. According to the practice management guidelines for tracheostomy timing and the use of propensity score matching technology,there were 118 patients with tracheostomy within 7 days of tracheal intubation (early group) and 104 patients with tracheostomy after 7 days of tracheal intubation (late group) before matching,and there were 87 patients in early group and 87 patients in late group after matching. Data were compared between groups including the gender,age,underlying disease,injury severity score (ISS),Glasgow coma score (GCS),number of fractured ribs,total number of rib fractures (NTRF),first rib fracture,flail chest,traumatic brain injury,combined injuries (spine,maxillofacial,sternum),acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS),volume fraction of pulmonary contusion(VPC),blood lactic acid (within 24 hours of admission),hemothorax,pneumothorax,mechanical ventilation time,duration of tracheostomy,time from tracheal intubation to incision,length of hospital stay,length of stay in ICU,closed thoracic drainage,number of fiberoptic bronchoscopy,multi-drug resistant bacteria infection,ventilator-associated pneumonia,antibiotic use time,duration of sedative and analgesic drugs used and 28-day mortality. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to predict independent risk factors for early tracheostomy. The Pearson method was used to compare the relationship between multiple factors. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to predict indicators that affect the prognosis of patients with early tracheostomy,and calculate the best cut-off value. The Kaplan-Meier single factor and COX multivariate survival were used to analyze the relevant factors affecting the 28-day mortality of patients.Results:(1) In early group,the NTRF,ARDS and VPC were higher than those in late group,and the time from tracheal intubation to incision and 28-day mortality rate were lower than those in late group ( P < 0.05),while the two groups showed no significant differences in the gender,age,underlying diseases and ISS ( P > 0.05). (2) The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that there was statistical significance in NTRF ( OR = 1.775,95% CI 1.439-2.188),ARDS( OR = 3.740,95% CI 1.441-9.711),VPC ( OR = 1.087,95% CI 1.052-1.124) ( P < 0.05); the Pearson method analysis showed a significant correlation between VPC and NTRF ( r = 0.369, P < 0.05) and a low degree of correlation between ARDS and VPC ( r = 0.179, P < 0.05),but there was no significant correlation between ARDS and NTRF ( r = 0.132, P > 0.05). (3) The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of the VPC and NTRF [AUC = 0.832 (95% CI 0.770-0.893),AUC = 0.804 (95% CI 0.740-0.868)] were significantly higher than those of the number of rib fractures [AUC = 0.437(95% CI 0.352-0.523),GCS [AUC = 0.519 (95% CI 0.432-0.605)] and ISS [AUC = 0.484 (95% CI 0.398-0.571)] ( P < 0.05). After calculating the Yorden index,the best cut-off value for VPC was 23.9,and the best cut-off value for NTRF was 8.5. (4) The Kaplan-Meier single factor and multivariate COX model survival analysis showed that the 28-day survival ratio of patients with early tracheostomy was significantly better than that of late tracheostomy ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:The NTRF,ADRS and VPC are independent risk factors for the timing and prognosis of early tracheostomy. There is a significant correlation between VPC and NTRF. The VPC ≥ 23.9% and or NTRF ≥ 8.5 can be used to predict early tracheostomy in patients with multiple rib fractures. Early tracheostomy may benefit the 28-day survival of patients with multiple rib fractures.

Objective:To investigate the serotype distribution and drug resistance of Streptococcus pneumoniae ( S. pneumoniae) isolated in Urumqi Children′s Hospital and to evaluate the significances of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) in preventing infection and controlling drug resistance. Methods:The S. pneumoniae isolates stored in clinical laboratory of Urumqi Children′s Hospital from January to December in 2018 were re-cultured.The serotypes were detected by capsule swelling experiment to assess the coverage rate of PCV13.The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Penicillin, Amoxicillin, Cefotaxime and Ceftriaxone were detected by E-test method, and the susceptibility of the isolates to Meropenem and other 9 antibiotics was detected by VITEC 2 Compact system. Results:A total of 225 S. pneumoniae strains were identified.The common serotypes were 19F (32.9%), 23F (12.0%), 19A (10.7%), 6B (10.2%) and 6A (8.0%). PCV13 coverage rate was 80.4%.There was no significant difference in serotype distribution and PCV13 coverage between children < 2 years old and ≥ 2 years old, as well as between Han and minority people.The 57.8% and 31.7% strains showed intermediate susceptibility and resistance against oral Penicillin, respectively.Based on the breakpoints for meningitis, 89.4% strains were resistant against pare-nteral Penicillin, and 47.5% and 64.6% strains were non-susceptible (mainly intermediately susceptible) to Ceftria-xone and Cefotaxime, respectively.The resistance rates of strains against Erythromycin, Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim and Tetracycline were as high as 98.1%, 67.6% and 89.6%, respectively.More than 90% tested isolates were susceptible to Amoxicillin, Meropenem, Levofloxacin or Moxifloxacin.PCV13 strains were more resistant to Penicillin than non-PCV13 strains. Conclusions:The serotypes 19F, 23F, 19A, 6B and 6A are common among the S. pneumoniae isolated in Urumqi.The coverage rate of PCV13 is about 80%.There was no significant difference in serotype distribution between Han and minority nationality children. S. pneumoniae were frequently resistant against Erythromycin.The high resistance to Penicillin and other beta-lactams should be taken into account when treatment is decided for suspected pneumococcal meningitis.Universal administration of PCV13 would be effective strategy to prevent pneumococcal infection in children and to control the drug resistance of S. pneumoniae.
