BackgroundPerceived discrimination has been identified as a main risk factor for depression in maintenance hemodialysis patients. Chronic Illness Rejection and Discrimination Scale （CIRDS） is a measure for assessing perceived discrimination in individuals with chronic disease. However， the Chinese version of CIRDS for maintenance hemodialysis patients has not yet been established. ObjectiveTo translate CIRDS into Chinese version and evaluate its reliability and validity in maintenance hemodialysis patients， so as to provide an effective tool for assessing the perceived discrimination among maintenance hemodialysis patients. MethodsThe Brislin's model for translation， back-translation， cross-cultural adaptation and pre-experimentation was utilized to develop a Chinese version of CIRDS. A coherent of 250 maintenance hemodialysis patients attending Taihe Hospital Affiliated to Hubei Medical College， from July to October 2023 were selected as the research subjects. The formal scale was refined by employing item analysis， exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The validity of the scale was evaluated using content validity and construct validity. The reliability of the scale was evaluated using Cronbach's α coefficient， test-retest reliability and split-half reliability. ResultsThe Chinese version of CIRDS consisted of 11 items， including 2 factors （perceived discrimination and perceived rejection）. The scale-level content validity index （S-CVI） value was 0.898 and the item-level content validity index （I-CVI） values ranged from 0.875 to 1.000. Two common factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis and explained 65.41% of the total variance. Confirmatory factor analysis also indicated that the model provided a good fit for the data. The Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.910， with Cronbach's α coefficients of 0.835 and 0.912 for the perceived discrimination and perceived rejection， respectively. The split-half reliability of the scale was 0.803， and the test-retest reliability was 0.920. ConclusionThe Chinese version of CIRDS has excellent reliability and validity， which can be used to evaluate the perceived discrimination in maintenance hemodialysis patients.

Objective To examine the significance of susceptible gene detection for hereditary cancer syndrome (HCS) among general population. Methods A total of 2 928 individuals undergoing routine health examinations in Healthcare Center of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, from September 2021 to April 2024 were enrolled retrospectively. Next generation sequencing was employed to identify susceptible genes for HCS. American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) guideline was used to analyze the pathogenicity of variants. Clinical data, imagings, follow-up data were also collected. Results The overall mutation rate of HCS panel was 3.59% (105/2 928), with 0.61% (18/2 928) for MutY DNA glycosylase (MUTYH), 0.27% (8/2 928) for breast cancer susceptibility gene 1/2 (BRCA1/2) and 0.23% (7/2 928) for mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Conclusions Healthy individuals carrying tumor susceptible genes usually lack the relevant clinical phenotypes. Whether comprehensive testing needs to be carried out among healthy people remains to be further explored.

Objective To explore characteristics of clinical and imaging findings in patients with fat embolism syndrome.Methods From January 2021 to October 2022,clinical manifestations of 13 patients with fat embolism due to fracture or or-thopaedic surgery were retrospectively analyzed,including 11 males and 2 females,aged from 17 to 60 years old.Mental and respiratory abnormalities and changes in vital signs occurred after admission or after surgery,and patient's chest and brain imaging results were abnormal.The patient's mental and respiratory abnormalities,vital signs,chest and brain imaging results were continuously monitored.Results The main clinical manifestations of fat embolism syndrome were abnormal pulmonary respiration in 13 patients,abnormal central nervous function in 7 patients,and spotted rash in 2 patients.Chest CT showed dif-fuse distribution of ground glass shadows in 13 patients,and severe symptoms were"snowstorm".Nine patients with ground glass fusion consolidation,5 patients with multiple nodules and 4 patients accompanied by bilateral pleural effusion.Head CT findings of 5 patients were negative,and head MRI findings of 1 patient showed multiple T1WI low signal,T2WI high signal shadow,DWI high signal shadow,and"starry sky sign"in basal ganglia,radiative crown,hemioval center,thalamus,frontal parietal cortex and subcortex.Conclusion Fat embolism syndrome has a high mortality rate.Clinical manifestations of respira-tory system and nervous system are not specific,and the skin spot rash has a characteristic manifestation.The"blizzard"sign is the specific manifestation of chest X-ray and CT examination of fat embolism,and the"starry sky"sign is the typical manifesta-tion of diffusion-weighted sequence of brain MRI examination of fat embolism.

Objective To investigate the effect of locking plate internal fixation for the treatment of proximal lateral femoral wall fracture.Methods From January 2021 to June 2022,31 patients with intertrochanteric fractures and lateral wall fractures were treated.Among them,15 patients were treated with proximal femoral nail antirotation(PFNA)fixation including 3 males and 12 females with an average age of(75.87±7.46)years old;the other 16 patients were treated with 3.5 mm pre-curved screw locking plate fixtion for lateral wall fracture including 4 males and 12 females with an average age of(76.15±9.47)years old.After surgery,the surgical index,tip-apical distance(TAD),postoperative standing weight-bearing time,and fracture reduction were compared between two groups.Postoperative hip function was evaluated according to Harris hip score.Results All patients were followed up for an average of(12±5)months ranging from 7 to 17 months.The immediate postopera-tive neck angle ranged from 111° to 132°(119.3±8.3)°.Fracture reduction results were excellent in 11 cases,fair in 2,worse in 1 in PFNA group;excellent in 12,fair in 3,worse in 1 in PFNA+locking plate group.One case of the PFNA group had a spiral blade cut out through the femoral head.There were significant differences in the time of operation,the amount of blood loss during the operation,the length of incision between two groups(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in TAD and post-operative standing weight-bearing time between two groups(P＞0.05).There were significant differences in Harris scores at 6 months after surgery between two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion The application of PFNA-assisted locking plate in the treat-ment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures with lateral wall fractures is effective,and can restore the integrity of lateral wall,im-prove the stability of PFNA internal fixation,and reduce postoperative complications.

Objective:This study aimed to provide basic data for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of pediatric viral myocarditis (VMC) in China through analyzing the epidemic characteristics and disease burden of pediatric inpatients with VMC from 2016 to 2021.Methods:We performed a descriptive statistical analysis to the age, genders, seasons, regions and hospitalization cost and days of pediatric VMC inpatients and the death. All of the information was obtained from 27 Children′s hospitals or Maternal and Child Health hospitals of 23 provinces of China from 2016 to 2021.Results:A total of 7 647 599 cases including 1 646 VMC inpatients were admitted into our study. The annual numbers of hospitalizations were 173, 227, 313, 301, 295 and 337, with the hospitalized constituent ratios being 14.9/100 000, 17.9/100 000, 23.0/100 000, 20.5/100 000, 26.5/100 000 and 26.4/100 000 from 2016 to 2021. In recent 6 years, the proportion of VMC hospitalizations had increased yearly ( P<0.001), and had associated with the onset age ( P<0.001). Aged 12-≤18 years owned the highest hospitalized constituent ratio. The Northeast of China owned the largest number of VMC inpatients, and the East second to it. Among the 1 646 VMC children, there were 68 deaths, with the hospitalized case fatality rate of 4.13%. There were no significant differences between genders, age, seasons, years and fatality rate of VMC inpatients. For the diseases burden, the median of hospitalization days of all VMC inpatients was 10 days (IQR 6, 21), and the median of hospitalization cost was 1 1 842.3 RMB (IQR 6 969.22, 19 714.78). The median of hospitalization days of deceased VMC children was only 1 day (IQR 1, 3), the median cost could be 8 874.03 RMB (IQR 5 277.94, 5 6 151.59). Conclusions:In this study, we found that proportion of hospitalization of VMC children increased year by year, adolescence might be a risk factor of VMC. The fatality of VMC inpatients could be up to 4.13%, and the death led to a huge economic burden of society, family and individuals.

Acute pancreatitis is one of the common acute abdominal conditions in the digestive system,and its incidence is on the rise.Although approximately 80％of cases involve mild patients without local complications,some patients develop local complications in the later stages of the disease,such as pancreatic pseudocysts and walled-off necrosis.Among these,infected pancreatic necrosis(IPN)is the most severe,with a mortality rate of up to 30％.In recent years,treatment approaches centered around minimally invasive surgery have achieved promising results;several recent clinical trials have also provided substantial new insights into the surgical diagnosis and treatment of IPN.However,it is worth noting that IPN exhibits considerable individual variability and complex treatment processes.Therefore,it is necessary to discuss surgical treatment strategies for IPN to offer clinical practitioners a reference for relevant management.

Objective:To explore the therapeutic efficacy and prognostic factors of induction therapy for secondary central nervous system lymphoma(SCNSL).Methods:Clinical data of patients diagnosed with SCNSL from 2010 to 2021 at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively collected.A retrospective cohort study was performed on all and grouped patients to analyze the efficacy and survival.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to explore the adverse prognostic factors.Results:Thirty-seven diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients with secondary central involvement were included in the research.Their 2-year overall survival(OS)rate was 46.01％and median survival time was 18.1 months.The 2-year OS rates of HD-MTX group and TMZ group were 34.3％and 61％,median survival time were 8.7 and 38.3 months,and median progression-free survival time were 8.1 and 47 months,respectively.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age,sex,IPI,Ann Arbor stage were correlated with patient survival time.The median survival time of patients with CD79B,KMT2D,CXCR4.ERBB2,TBL1XR1,BTG2,MYC,MYD88,and PIM1 mutations was 8.2 months,which was lower than the overall level.Conclusion:HD-MTX combined with TMZ as the first-line strategy may improve patient prognosis,and early application of gene sequencing is beneficial for evaluating prognosis.
