Objective To analyze the clinical and MR characteristics of fibroadenoma(FA)and phyllodes tumor(PT)with maxi-mum diameter≥5 cm.Methods A total of 33 cases with FA and 34 cases with PT were selected,and all lesions with maximum diameter≥5 cm were confirmed by surgical pathology.The clinical and MR characteristics were analyzed retrospectively.Results PT and FA with tumor maximum diameter≥5 cm were more common in perimenopausal women[(47.35±11.36)years old vs(49.42±11.73)years old,P>0.05],while the FA patient was with the wider age range(19-79 years old).There was statistically significant difference in tumor maximum diameter between PT group and FA group(P<0.001),and tumor maximum diameter of PT group(median 7.06 cm,tumor maximum diameter 17.3 cm)was significantly larger than that of FA group.Coarse calcification was more common in the FA group compared to the PT group(5 vs 0,P=0.011).High signal on T1WI was more common in PT group rela-tive to FA group(50%vs 9.1%,P<0.001).There were no significant differences between the two groups in four characteristics,including tumor margin lobulation(97.1%vs 81.8%),T2WI low signal separation(32.4%vs 30.3%),fibroglandular tissue(FGT),and background parenchymal enhancement(BPE)(P>0.05).Time-signal intensity curve(TIC)of FA group showed typeⅠ and Ⅱ curves,while 4 cases(11.8%)in PT group showed type Ⅲ curves,and there was statistically significant difference in TIC between the two groups(P=0.008).The apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)values of PT group[(1.48±0.17)×10-3mm2/s]was slightly lower than that of FA group[(1.55±0.20)×10-3 mm2/s],and there was no significant difference in ADC between the two groups(P>0.05).The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve showed that the best diagnostic cut-off value for distinguishing between PT and FA with maximum diameter≥5 cm was 6.36 cm,the area under the curve(AUC)was 0.927[95%confidence in-terval(CI)0.860-0.994;P<0.001].The AUC of the T1 WI high signal was 0.705,and the standard error was 0.065(95%CI 0.578-0.831;P=0.004).Conclusion Among FA and PT with tumor maximum diameter≥5 cm,PT appear to be more larger lesion and prone to higher signal intensity on T1WI compared to FA,while coarse calcification is more common in FA.

Objective:To analyze clinical characteristics of patients within 48 hours in pediatric intensive care unit（PICU）,and investigate causes and prognosis of extubation failure in reintubation children.Methods:A single-center retrospective study was conducted.Patients who were reintubated within 48 hours after extubation in PICU at Children's Hospital of Fudan University from January 1，2019 to December 31，2022 were retrospectively enrolled.Patients with unplanned extubation for various reasons which include re-intubation due to surgery and replacement of tracheal intubation were excluded.We analyzed the clinical characteristics，causes of extubation failure and prognosis.Main outcome measures included principal diagnosis，pediatric critical illness score（PCIS），the reason of intubation，the glasgow coma scale（GCS），the direct cause of reintubation，aeration time，hospitalization period，outcomes at PICU discharge and whether to extubate successfully.Results:During the study period，a total of 2 652 patients were extubated in PICU,and a total of 87 children were enrolled.Finally，63（72.4%）patients survived at PICU，nine（10.3%）patients died in hospital，and 15（17.2%）patients were discharged automatically.In the survival group，38（60.3%）patients were decannulated and 25（39.7%）patients underwent tracheotomy.The top three principal diagnosis in 87 cases were central nervous system disease[34（39.1%）cases]，lower airway disease[18（20.7%）cases] and sepsis[nine（10.3%）cases].Of the 87 children，28（32.2%）patients were reintubated due to central respiratory failure，21（24.1%）patients were reintubated due to lower airway disease，20（23.0%）patients were reintubated due to upper airway obstruction，14（16.1%）patients were reintubated due to cough weakness and/or swallowing disturbance，and four（4.6%）patients were reintubated for other reasons.In children with mechanical ventilation duration ≥7 days before first extubation，central nervous system diseases were the most common primary diseases，and it accounts for 55.6%.Central respiratory failure was the main direct cause of reintubation，accounting for 40.0%，and more patients(40.0%) had GCS scores＜8 before the first intubation.Compared with the successful decannulation group，the extubation failure group had the higher proportion of children with GCS＜8（32.7% vs.10.5%， P＜0.05），the longer median duration of mechanical ventilation before the first extubation[239（123，349）h vs.68.5（19，206）h， P＜0.05]and the longer median length of ICU stay[38（23，54）d vs.24（12，43）d， P＜0.05].After comparing the three groups including survival group，in-hospital death group and automatic discharge group，the PCIS score of the survival group was the highest，and the in-hospital death group was the lowest( P＜0.05). Conclusion:The rate of reintubation at 48 h after extubation in PICU is 3.3%.The immediate causes of reintubation mainly included central respiratory failure，lower airway disease，upper airway obstruction，cough weakness and/or dysphagia.The mortality rate of reintubation in critically ill children is high and the prognosis is poor.

Objective To evaluate the CT features and differential value of gastric leiomyomas(GLs)and gastric stromal tumors(GSTs)after propensity score matching.Methods Twenty-six GLs were 1∶1 propensity score matched to GSTs based on sex,age,tumor site and size.Tumor shape and contour,mucosal ulcer,tumor growth patterns,enhancement pattern and degree,the lon-gest diameter(LD)of the tumor,and the ratio of the LD to the vertical diameter(VD)were analyzed.CT signs included hemor-rhage,calcification,peripheral invasion,and distant metastasis,etc.Regression analysis was used to determine the best quantitative evaluation for differentiation of them.Results The presence of mucosal ulcer was significantly more frequent in GSTs than in GLs(P=0.032).Both tumors showed progressive enhancement;however,the enhancement degree of GSTs was significantly higher than GLs in the arterial and portal venous phases(P=0.004,P=0.002,respectively).The above influential factors were included in a regression analysis using enhancement degree of 18 HU and 23 HU in the arterial and portal venous phases as cutoff values respectively.An enhancement degree≤18 HU in the arterial phase was identified as an independent influential factor in the diagnosis of GLs[odds ratio(OR)=12.776,95％confidence interval(CI)1.270-128.535].No significant difference was found in other morphological characteristics(P＞0.05).Conclusion Less ulceration on the tumor surface and mild enhancement in arterial phase are characteristic features of GLs compared with GSTs.

Objective:To analyze the clinical situation of critically ill children with Montgomery T-tube，aiming to summarize the characteristics of T-tube application in pediatric and the experience of postoperative airway management in PICU.Methods:The etiology，clinical characteristics，complications and ICU admissions of patients with Montgomery T-tube admitted to the Pediatric Hospital of Fudan University from April 2019 to December 2021 were analyzed，and the application of T-tube in patients with critical conditions requiring long-term mechanical ventilation was described in the light of clinical experience.Results:During the study period,seven children were admitted to the PICU after T-tube insertion,including three males and four females,aged 9~75 months.Five children received mechanical ventilation.Among them,there were five cases with congenital laryngeal malformations,one case with tracheoesophageal fistula,and one case with laryngeal papilloma.The main complications were sputum blockage,infection,and granulation proliferation.One child died of secretion blockage,while the other children were successfully evacuated from the T-tube.The longest retention time of the T-tube was 367 days.Five patients experienced hoarseness after removing the T-tube,and upon re-examination with fiberoptic bronchoscopy,no recurrence of subglottic stenosis was observed.There was no respiratory distress or wheezing,and there were no abnormalities observed during regular outpatient follow-up after discharge.After discharge,the quality of life of the six surviving children improved compared to preoperative,and they all resumed oral feeding.There were no complaints of swallowing difficulties or aspiration during outpatient follow-up.But they were all combined with malnutrition.Conclusion:The Montgomery T-tube is a secure and dependable airway stent utilized for airway remodeling and the maintenance of airway patency following interventional surgery.For critically ill children,early management of airway clearance and infection prevention are imperative.

Abstract: Objective To investigate the function and molecular mechanism of LRH-1 in regulating the sensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells to oxaliplatin, providing new ideas for the treatment of liver cancer. Methods Knockdown and overexpression of LRH-1 in HCC cell lines were constructed, and the effect of LRH-1 on oxaliplatin resistance of HCC cells was explored by detecting IC50, cell proliferation, and plate colony formation assay. The transcriptional regulation of the MDR-1 gene by LRH-1 was detected through quantitative PCR. The transcriptional activation ability of LRH-1 on the MDR1 gene was evaluated by luciferase reporter assay. Results In HuH7 cells overexpressing LRH-1, the IC50 significantly increased to 18.012 μmol/L under oxaliplatin treatment, significantly higher than the 2.042 μmol/L in the HuH-7 control group, showing statistically significant differences (P<0.05). After overexpression of LRH-1 in HuH-7 cells, the cell proliferation ability was significantly increased, with a noticeable increase in MDR1 mRNA level. In HepG2 cells with knockdown LRH-1 expression, the IC50 significantly dropped to 1.012 μmol/L, significantly lower than the 6.294 μmol/L in the HepG2 control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). After knockdown of LRH-1 in HepG2 cells, the cell proliferation and plate colony formation ability were significantly inhibited, with a notable decrease in MDR1 mRNA expression level. Luciferase reporter assay confirmed that LRH-1 can activate the transcriptional activity of the MDR1 promoter in a dosedependent manner, and its specific inhibitor ML-180 can significantly reduce LRH-1′s transcription activation ability on the MDR1 promoter. Conclusions LRH-1 may promote oxaliplatin resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma cells by regulating the transcriptional activity of MDR1 gene. Since its specific small molecule inhibitor has been successfully synthesized, LRH-1 can potentially become a target for the treatment of drug resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective:To seek specific response points on the body surface of patients with primary dysmenorrhea(PD)by observing blood perfusion unit(PU)at different points of the three Yin meridians of foot using laser speckle contrast imaging(LSCI). Methods:Eighty PD patients were recruited as a PD group,and 80 healthy female undergraduates were taken as a normal group.During one menstrual cycle(before menstruation,during menstruation,and 3 d after menstruation),each participant was examined using the LSCI system to determine PU at bilateral Taixi(KI3),Taibai(SP3),Taichong(LR3),Shuiquan(KI5),Diji(SP8),Zhongdu(LR6),Sanyinjiao(SP6),and Xuehai(SP10)and non-acupuncture points.The researchers in charge of point location,operation,and statistical analysis were not aware of grouping.PU at the detection spots was taken as the outcome measure. Results:Compared with the normal group,the PD group showed increases in PU at right Taixi(KI3)before menstruation(P<0.05)and at bilateral Zhongdu(LR6)and right Diji(SP8)during menstruation(P<0.05).At the other time points,significance was not found between the two groups in comparing PU at the detected spots. Conclusion:Compared with healthy participants,PD patients present specific changes in PU at Taixi(KI3),Diji(SP8),and Zhongdu(LR6)at specific time points during the menstrual cycle,which provides a reference for acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of PD in clinical settings.

Objective:To explore the effects of external diaphragm electrical stimulation on the diaphragm thickness and function in mechanically ventilated children.Methods:A randomized controlled trial was conducted in children who were admitted to PICU at Children′s Hospital of Fudan University and received mechanical ventilation between June 2021 and April 2022.The control group was given the routine treatment of mechanical ventilation, and the intervention group was given external diaphragm electrical stimulation in the early stage of mechanical ventilation in addition to routine treatment.Diaphragm thickness was continuously measured by bedside ultrasound every day for one week after mechanical ventilation, and the changing trend of diaphragm thickness was observed, and the diaphragmatic thickening fraction (DTf) and the incidence of ventilator-induced diaphragmtic dysfunction(VIDD) were calculated at the same time.Results:A total of 32 valid samples were included, including 15 cases in intervention group (10 males) and 17 cases in control group (11 males). The median age of the patients was 33 (10, 77) months, and the median duration of mechanical ventilation was 12 (8, 21) days.The reasons for mechanical ventilation in children included respiratory insufficiency in ten cases, brain dysfunction in ten cases, heart failure in eight cases, and postoperative surgery in four cases.The diaphragm end-expiratory thickness (DTe) in intervention group and the control group showed a gradually decreasing trend from the 1st day to the 7th day.The left thickness was reduced by 11% on the 7th day compared to 1st day in intervention group, which was reduced by 18% in control group; the average daily DTe was reduced by 2% per day in intervention group and by 3% per day in control group.The trends on the right and left were similar.The DTe thickness in the intervention group was greater than that in control group, among which, the mean DTe thickness in the left side of the intervention group on the 7th day was (0.110 7±0.023 7)cm, which was greater than that in control group (0.093 5±0.016 9)cm, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-2.372, P<0.05); On the second day, the mean DTe thickness on the right side in the intervention group was (0.1267±0.0277) cm, which was greater than that in control group (0.104 7±0.018 1)cm, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-2.688, P<0.05). DTf in the intervention group was lower than that in control group at 7th day, but the difference was not statistically significant(left DTf: adjusted mean difference was -0.117, P=0.088; right DTf: adjusted mean difference was -0.065, P=0.277). The incidence of VIDD in the intervention group was lower than that in control group(33.3% vs.41.2%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( χ2=0.005, P=0.946). Conclusion:External diaphragmatic electrical stimulation may be helpful for alleviating diaphragmatic atrophy in mechanically ventilated children.However, whether the improvement of diaphragm atrophy is beneficial to clinical outcome still needs further study.

Objective? To investigate the occurrence and influencing factors of falls in elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and provide scientific reference for the prevention of falls in elderly patients with KOA. Methods? Using convenience sampling method, 104 elderly patients diagnosed as KOA in orthopaedic wards of four ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Hangzhou from November 2017 to August 2018 were selected as subjects. General Information Questionnaire, Morse Fall Scale(MFS)and the Barthel Index(BI)for Activities of Daily Living (ADL) were applied in the investigation. Single factor analysis and multiple factor Logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of falls in elderly KOA patients. Results? A total of 104 questionnaires were sent out in this study, and 95 valid questionnaires were recovered, yielding an effective recovery rate of 91.35%. The incidence of falls in elderly KOA patients was 45.26% (43/95), of which 62.79% (27/43) had fallen twice or more. There were significant differences in knee injury history, staircase climbing and falls among elderly KOA patients (P＜ 0.05). There were significant differences in the risk of falls between elderly KOA patients in "whether taking drugs", "whether using walking aids", "status of self-care ability", and "age" (P＜ 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that history of knee injury, frequent staircase climbing and use of walking aids were the influencing factors of falls in elderly KOA patients (OR=4.028, 25.569, 3.191; P＜ 0.05). Conclusions? In view of the influencing factors of falls in elderly KOA patients, individualized nursing measures should be taken to strengthen falls risk assessment, carry out fall prevention related education and improve patients' social support, which will help to reduce the incidence of falls and further improve patients' quality of life.

Objective To discuss the clinical effects of different energy densities of enteral nutrition (EN) preparations on mechanical ventilation (MV) patients with acute severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI). Methods Sixty MV patients with acute sTBI admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine of Hangzhou Xiaoshan District First People's Hospital from July 2015 to December 2017 were divided into two groups according to different energy densities of nutritional preparations. Thirty patients of the control group were given nasal feeding with standard energy density EN (energy density 3.35 - 4.19 kJ/mL) and 30 patients of the observation group were given nasal feeding with relatively higher energy density (energy density 5.44 - 6.28 kJ/mL). The indexes of nutritional status between the two groups before and after treatment were compared: including prealbumin (PA), albumin (Alb), globulin (Glo), hemoglobin (Hb), 5-day and 1-week heat calorie compliance rates of reaching target calories, MV time and incidence of complications. Results There were no statistically significant differences in nutritional indicators before treatment between the two groups (all P > 0.05). The compliance rates of reaching target calories of the observation group on the 5 and 7 days after treatment were significantly higher than those in the control group [5 days: 66.67% (20/30) vs. 50.00% (15/30), 1 week: 81.33% (25/30) vs. 70.00% (21/30), both P < 0.05], and the MV time was significantly lower than that in the control group (hours: 92.48±12.04 vs. 128.88±16.29, P < 0.05); the levels of PA, Alb, Hb, Glo were significantly higher in the observation group than those in control group on the 21st day after treatment [PA (g/L): 0.28±0.11 vs. 0.15±0.04, Alb (g/L): 36.52±5.79 vs. 29.63±2.74, Hb (g/L): 92.40±9.50 vs. 81.10±8.60, Glo (g/L): 24.42±1.73 vs. 18.19±3.59, all P < 0.05]. Complications: the total incidence of abdominal distension, diarrhea and constipation of the observation group was 36.6% (11/30), while that of the control group was 66.7% (20/30), the difference between the two groups being statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion High energy density enteral nutrition can improve the nutritional status of the organisms of MV patients with acute sTBI, reduce the time of MV and the incidence of complications, thus it is worthy to be widely applied clinically.
