Objective To explore the correlation between central venous oxygen saturation(ScvO2)-re-lated indexes at different time points and the occurrence of low cardiac output syndrome(LCOS)after con-genital heart disease(CHD)correction surgery.Methods A total of 73 children who underwent CHD correc-tion surgery in this hospital from July 1st,2021 to July 1st,2024 were selected as the research subjects.The clinical data,preoperative conditions,and postoperative conditions of the children were collected.The ScvO2 and arterial lactate(Lac)levels of the children at different time points(the 1st,6th,12th,and 24th hours after surgery)were monitored,and the ScvO2/Lac at different time points and the change rate of ScvO2 in different time periods were calculated.The correlation between ScvO2-related indexes and LCOS after CHD correction surgery was analyzed.Results ScvO2 at the 6th hour after surgery,ScvO2 at the 12th hour after surgery,Sc-vO2/Lac at the 12th hour after surgery,the change rate of ScvO2 from the 1st to the 24th hour after surgery,the change rate of ScvO2 from the 6th to the 12th hour after surgery,and the change rate of ScvO2 from the 12th to the 24th hour after surgery were independent influencing factors of LCOS occurrence after CHD cor-rection surgery(P＜0.05).There was a negative correlation between ScvO2 at the 12th hour after surgery,ScvO2/Lac and LCOS occurrence after CHD correction surgery(r=-0.543,-0.523,P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of ScvO2 at the 12th hour after surgery for predicting LCOS occurrence after CHD correction surgery was 0.938(95％CI:0.865-1.000);the AUC of ScvO2/Lac at the 12th hour after surgery for predicting LCOS occurrence after CHD correction surgery was 0.922(95％CI:0.851-0.994).Conclusion ScvO2 and ScvO2/Lac at the 12th hour after surgery have good predictive potential for LCOS occurrence af-ter CHD correction surgery.

Objective To explore the application effect of the dual-track nursing intervention model in the treatment process of children with lobar pneumonia.Methods A total of 186 children with lobar pneumonia were selected and randomly divided into control group and intervention group u-sing a double-blind method,with 93 cases in each group.The control group received conventional nursing intervention,while the intervention group implemented the dual-track nursing intervention model on the basis of conventional nursing.This model included the establishment and training of nurs-ing teams,personalized nursing plans,health education,and psychological support.Outside the hos-pital,it emphasized family support,regular follow-up guidance,and community-based collaborative ed-ucation.Both groups received a 3-week intervention.The improvement times of clinical symptoms,hos-pital stay,pulmonary function indicators before and after nursing,treatment compliance,and family members' satisfaction with nursing were compared and analyzed between the two groups.Results The fever resolution time[(3.89±0.96)d],cough relief time[(6.21±1.34)d],disappearance time of pulmonary rales[(7.89±1.56)d],and hospital stay duration[(9.45±1.89)d]in the intervention group were all shorter than those in the control group[(5.23±1.14),(7.45±1.67),(9.32±2.01),and(11.28±2.35)d,respectively],with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).After nursing,the forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1)[(1.51±0.22)L],forced vital capacity(FVC)[(1.75±0.25)L],and FEV1/FVC[(94.12±5.65)％]in the intervention group were all higher than those in the control group[(1.42±0.15)L,(1.66±0.22)L,and(85.73±8.41)％,respectively],with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The scores for exami-nation cooperation[(23.91±3.82)points],nursing cooperation[(24.19±4.03)points],standardized medication use[(24.26±3.94)points],and rational diet[(23.77±3.62)points]in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group[(20.16±3.53),(19.64±3.46),(23.05±3.68),and(18.85±3.41)points,respectively],with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The satisfaction rate of family members with nursing work in the intervention group was higher than that in the control group,with a statistically significant difference(98.92％versus 89.25％,P＜0.05).Conclusion The dual-track nursing intervention model has a signifi-cant application effect in children with lobar pneumonia.It can accelerate their recovery process,improve treatment compliance,promote pulmonary function improvement,and enhance family mem-bers' satisfaction.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic and prognostic value of systemic immune inflammatory index (SII) for severe traumatic brain injury secondary to acute lung injury (sTBI-ALI).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on patients with severe traumatic brain injury admitted to the trauma center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2021 to November 2023. Patients received standard treatments including hemostasis and intracranial pressure management. Vital signs and blood routine data were collected upon admission. Patients were categorized into sTBI group and sTBI-ALI group based on established clinical diagnostic criteria for ALI to evaluate the diagnostic utility of SII. Subsequently, within the sTBI-ALI group, patients were stratified into survival and non-survival groups based on their 30-day outcomes to assess the prognostic value of SII.Results:A total of 260 sTBI patients were enrolled, of whom 113 developed ALI. Among the sTBI-ALI patients, 73 survived at 30 days. Compared to the sTBI group, the sTBI-ALI group exhibited significantly higher respiratory rates, heart rates, white blood cell counts, neutrophil counts, platelet counts, and SII levels (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that SII index ( OR=1.003, 95% CI: 1.002-1.004, P<0.001) was an independent risk factor for ALI development in sTBI patients. The combined predictive model incorporating SII and heart rate yielded an AUC of 0.801 (95% CI: 0.740-0.862). The non-survival group had significantly higher neutrophil counts and SII levels, and significantly lower Glasgow Coma Scale scores than the survival group (all P<0.05). Multifactorial regression analysis indicated that SII index ( OR=1.002, P=0.004, 95% CI: 1.000-1.003) served as an independent risk factor for 30-day mortality in sTBI-ALI patients. The combined predictive model of SII and GCS achieved an AUC of 0.904 (95% CI: 0.848-0.960). Conclusions:SII demonstrates potential as a biomarker for predicting the development of ALI following sTBI. Furthermore, incorporating SII into predictive models significantly enhances the ability to forecast mortality risk in sTBI-ALI patients.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of lung recruitment maneuver(LRM)on postoperative hypoxemia in patients with acute type A aortic dissection(ATAAD).Methods A total of 56 ATAAD patients with postoperative hypoxemia in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from November 2019 to May 2022 were selected and randomly divided into LRM group(n=36)and conventional treatment group(n=20).Patients in conventional treatment group received routine mechanical ventilation on the basis of lung protective ventilation.The patients in LRM group were treated with incremental positive end expiratory pressure(PEEP).Arterial blood gas analysis,respiratory parameters,hemodynamics parameters and serum interleukin(IL)-6 and IL-10 levels were compared between two groups before and after treatment.Results At 12h and 24h after treatment,arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2),oxygenation index(OI),static compliance(Cstat)and dynamic compliance(Cdyn)in two groups were significantly higher than before treatment,the alveolar-arterial gradient of oxygen[PO2(A-a)],respiratory index(RI),peak inspiratory pressure(Ppeak)and plateau pressure(Pplat)were significantly lower than before treatment(P<0.05).PaO2,OI,Cstat and Cdyn in LRM group were significantly higher than those in conventional treatment group,PO2(A-a),RI,Ppeak and Pplat were significantly lower than those in conventional treatment group(P<0.05).Systolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure decreased and central venous pressure increased during pulmonary reexpansion in LRM group(P<0.05),and all patients returned to baseline level after pulmonary reexpansion.At 12h after treatment,serum IL-6 and IL-10 levels in both groups were significantly lower than before treatment(P<0.05).Conclusion Incremental PEEP can improve oxygenation and lung compliance in patients with hypoxemia after ATAAD surgery,but it has transient effects on hemodynamics,and should be closely monitored during treatment.

The incidence of myopia among Chinese adolescents is progressively rising, indicating a distinct trend toward younger age onset.This paper aims to comprehensively review the impact of various visual performance on myopia and its progression, with a specific emphasis on accommodative function, convergence function, and ocular position. A meticulous exploration of accommodation function, encompassing accommodative amplitude, accommodative facility, accommodative response, positive relative accommodation, and negative relative accommodation, has been undertaken to elucidate its contributory role in myopia progression. Concurrently, an exhaustive analysis of convergence function has been conducted including esotropia and exotropia, convergence insufficiency and convergence excess, fusional function vergence, divergence insufficiency, and excess, providing a nuanced understanding of convergence's implications for myopia advancement. Furthermore, the influence of ocular position on myopia progression, along with other factors affecting perceptual ocular position and intermittent exotropia, is discussed. The primary objective of this article is to unveil the multifaceted visual performance influencing myopia and its progression, elucidating the paramount significance of accommodative function, convergence function, and ocular position in this context.

Introduction::The triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio, a novel biomarker for metabolic syndrome (MetS), has been validated in the general population as being significantly correlated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. However, its capabilities to predict CVD in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV; PLWH) remain underexplored.Methods::We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 16,081 PLWH who initiated antiretroviral therapy (ART) at the Third People’s Hospital of Shenzhen (China) from 2005 to 2022. The baseline TG/HDL-C ratio was calculated as TG (mmol/L) divided by HDL-C (mmol/L). We employed a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model to assess the association between the TG/HDL-C ratio and CVD occurrence, using Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank tests to compare survival distributions. The increase in prediction risk upon the addition of the biomarker to the conventional risk model was examined through the assessment of changes in net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI). Nonlinear relationships were investigated using a restricted cubic spline plot, complemented by a two-piecewise Cox proportional hazards model to analyze threshold effects.Results::At the median follow-up of 70 months, 213 PLWH developed CVD. Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated a significant association between the increased risk of CVD and a higher TG/HDL-C ratio (log-rank P <0.001). The multivariate-adjusted Cox proportional hazards regression model indicated that the CVD hazard ratios (HR) (95% confidence intervals [95% CIs]) for Q2, Q3, and Q4 versus Q1 of the TG/HDL-C ratio were 2.07 (1.24, 3.45), 2.17 (1.32, 3.57), and 2.20 (1.35, 3.58), respectively ( P <0.05). The consideration of the TG/HDL-C ratio in the model, which included all significant factors for CVD incidence, improved the predictive risk, as indicated by the reclassification metrics (NRI 16.43%, 95% CI 3.35%-29.52%, P = 0.014). The restriction cubic spline plot demonstrated an upward trend between the TG/HDL-C ratio and the CVD occurrence ( P for nonlinear association = 0.027, P for overall significance = 0.009), with the threshold at 1.013. Significantly positive correlations between the TG/HDL-C ratio and CVD were observed below the TG/HDL-C ratio threshold with HR 5.88 (95% CI 1.58-21.88, P = 0.008), but not above the threshold with HR 1.01 (95% CI 0.88-1.15, P = 0.880). Conclusion::Our study confirms the effectiveness of the TG/HDL-C ratio as a predictor of CVD risk in PLWH, which demonstrates a significant nonlinear association. These findings indicate the potential of the TG/HDL-C ratio in facilitating early prevention and treatment strategies for CVD among PLWH.

Objective:To explore the risk factors related to delayed pleural effusion in multiple trauma patients.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 145 multiple trauma patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2022 to October 2023, including 99 males and 46 females, aged 18-81 years [56.0(46.5, 64.5)years]. Based on whether delayed pleural effusion developed after injury, the patients were divided into delayed pleural effusion group ( n=66) and non-delayed pleural effusion group ( n=79). The clinical data of the patients in both groups were collected, including gender, age, underlying disease (diabetes mellitus and hypertension), cause of injury (traffic injury, blow injury, fall from height, and others), comorbid injuries (traumatic brain injury, maxillofacial fracture, clavicular fracture, scapular fracture, sternal fracture, spinal fracture, multiple rib fracture, pneumothorax, lung contusion, and pelvic fracture), severity of injury [injury severity score (ISS) and abbreviated injury scale (AIS) score for the chest], location and number of rib fractures, vital signs at admission (body temperature, heart rate, respiration, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure), and clinical test indices [white blood cells (WBC), hemoglobin (Hb), platelets (PLT), total protein (TP), albumin (ALB), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), fibrinogen (FIB), fibrin degradation product (FDP), D-dimer (D-D), aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transferase (ALT), and creatinine (Cr)]. Univariate analysis was conducted to assess the correlation between the forementioned factors and the development of delayed pleural effusion after multiple traumas. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for the development of delayed pleural effusion after multiple traumas. Results:The results of univariate analysis showed that multiple rib fracture, pneumothorax, pulmonary contusion, chest AIS score, posterior rib fracture, number of rib fractures, TP, ALB, CRP, PCT and FDP were correlated with delayed pleural effusion in multiple trauma patients ( P<0.05 or 0.01); whereas gender, age, underlying disease, cause of injury, sternal fracture, spinal fracture, clavicular fracture, scapular fracture, pelvic fracture, maxillofacial fracture, traumatic brain injury, anterior rib fracture, ISS, vital signs at admission, WBC, Hb, PLT, FIB, D-D, AST, ALT, and Cr were not correlated with delayed pleural effusion in multiple trauma patients ( P>0.05). The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that lung contusion ( OR=3.96, 95% CI 1.59, 9.85, P<0.01), ALB ( OR=0.79, 95% CI 0.66, 0.94, P<0.01), and CRP ( OR=1.02, 95% CI 1.01, 1.03, P<0.01) were significantly correlated with delayed pleural effusion in multiple trauma patients. Conclusion:Lung contusion, ALB, and CRP are the independent risk factors for delayed pleural effusion in multiple trauma patients.

Objective To study the role of microRNA(miR)-483-3p in reducing myocardial fibrosis in rats,and explore the relationship between its mechanism and autophagy.Methods A total of 24 male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,blank transfec-tion group and high expression group,with 6 rats in each group.The blank transfection group and the high-expression group were pretreated with a single injection of adeno-associated virus(AAV)-blank transfection and AAV-miR-483-3p(5×1011 vg)in the tail vein,respectively.In 14 d later,the sham group was injected with 2.5 ml/(kg·d)normal saline for 14 d,and rat model of myocardial fibrosis was established by 2 mg/ml isoproterenol[2.5 ml/(kg·d)]injection through tail vein for 14 consecutive days.Myocardial pathological damage,severity of myocardial fibrosis,and expression levels of collagen-Ⅰ,microtubule-associated protein light chain 3(LC3),autoph-agy-related protein 5(Atg5)and autophagy degradation substrate(P62)in cardiomyocytes were evaluated and measured.Results Compared with the sham operation group,the model group had obviously larger myocardial fibrosis area,higher positive expression of Collagen-Ⅰ,and increased protein levels of Atg5 and LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ,and decreased expression level of P62 protein(P＜0.05).The myocardial fibrosis area,positive expression of Collagen-Ⅰ,the expression levels of Atg5 and LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ protein[(13.64±1.51)％vs(27.47±1.55)％,(13.48±3.07)％vs(30.91±2.45)％,0.98±0.17 vs 1.24±0.28,0.66±0.05 vs 1.26±0.09,P＜0.05]were significant-ly decreased,and the expression level of P62 was notably increased(0.91±0.11 vs 0.74±0.06,P＜0.05)in the high expression group than the model group.Conclusion MiR-483-3p attenuates myocardial fibrosis in rats,and the mechanism may be related to the inhibition of cardiomyocyte autophagy.

Objective:To investigate the expression levels of peripheral blood lymphocytes in patients with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) of the cervix and early cervical cancer, and to analyze their correlation with the clinicopathological characteristics of cervical cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 65 patients with HSIL and 78 patients with early cervical cancer (2018 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage ≤ stage Ⅱ A) treated in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital from October 2020 to November 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and 31 healthy people undergoing physical examination during the same period were treated as the healthy control group. The expressions of CD3 + T cells, CD4 + T cells, CD8 + T cells, NK cells, NK/T cells and other immune cells in fasting peripheral blood of the patients were detected by using flow cytometry. Results:The expression levels of CD3 + T cells, CD4 + T cells, CD4 +/CD8 + and NK cells were 71±8, 39±7, 1.5±0.5, 16±7, respectively in HSIL group, and 73±9, 41±9, 1.5±0.6, 16±9, respectively in early cervical cancer group, which were lower than those in the healthy control group (76±9, 45±10, 2.0±1.3, 20±7) (all P < 0.05). The expression levels of CD8 + T cells was 28±7, 29±8, respectively in HSIL group and early cervical cancer group, which were higher than those in the healthy control group (24±7) (all P < 0.05). The expression level of total B cells in early cervical cancer group was lower than that in healthy control group (10±4 vs.12±3, P < 0.05). The expression level of CD3 + T cells in peripheral blood of early cervical cancer patients with tumor diameter >4 cm and nerve/vascular invasion was 71±10 and 72±8, which was lower than that of patients with tumor diameter 2-4 cm, ≤2 cm and without nerve/vascular invasion (72±8, 75±8, 78±7); the expression level of CD8 + T cell was 32±8 and 35±4, which was higher than that of patients with tumor diameter 2-4 cm, ≤2 cm, and without nerve/vascular invasion (28±8, 28±7, 29±8) (all P < 0.05). The levels of CD3 + T cells and total B cells were negatively correlated with the tumor diameter (all P < 0.05), while the level of CD8 + T cells was positively correlated with tumor diameter ( P < 0.05); the levels of CD3 + T cells and NK cells were negatively correlated with nerve/vascular invasion (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:The immune function of the body starts to change in the early progression of cervical cancer, and is related to the tumor diameter and nerve/vascular invasion of cervical cancer.
