Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and molecular subtypes of typhoid and paratyphoid fever in Dalian, and to provide scientific basis for the development of effective prevention and control measures for typhoid and paratyphoid fever. Methods Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the data of typhoid and paratyphoid reported in Dalian from 2019 to 2023. Pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was used for bacterial molecular typing and cluster analysis of the homology of strains. Results A total of 32 cases of typhoid and paratyphoid fever were reported in Dalian from 2019 to 2023. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence rate between years ( χ²=4.41, P>0.05). There were two peaks in the time distribution. The age of onset was between 30 and 69 years old, and the difference in sex ratio between men and women was statistically significant ( χ²=4.00, P<0.05). The top two occupations with the highest number of cases of typhoid and paratyphoid fever were retired people, housework and unemployed, and the difference in the incidence rate among occupations was not statistically significant (χ²=4.59, P>0.05). PFGE experiment results showed that 32 typhoid and paratyphoid strains isolated from patients can be divided into 25 types. Conclusion The typhoid fever epidemic in Dalian remains stable at a relatively low level from 2019 to 2023. The PFGE banding patterns are relatively scattered, but there are dominant subtypes among them, which may be local epidemic strains.

Objective:To explore the effect of hanging electronic baking lamp on the quality and progress of flap recovery in patients with hand injury flap repair.Methods:A total of 180 patients undergoing hand injury flap repair in Yantaishan Hospital in Yantai City from January 2019 to May 2022 were selected as the research objects by the convenient sampling method. They were divided into the control group and the observation group, with 90 cases in each group. The control group was treated with routine nursing combined with ordinary baking lamp nursing, while the observation group was treated with routine nursing combined with hanging electronic baking lamp nursing. The postoperative flap recovery quality (survival rate, healing grade) and recovery process (exudation drying time, the regression time of swelling , the healing time of flap wound) were compared between the two groups.Results:In the control group, 85 flaps survived, with a survival rate of 94.44% (85/90) ; in the observation group, 87 flaps survived, with a survival rate of 96.67% (87/90) ; there was no statistically significant difference in the results between the two groups ( P>0.05) . In the control group, there were 43 cases of grade A skin flap healing, 26 cases of grade B skin flap healing and 21 cases of grade C skin flap healing; in the observation group, 63 cases had grade A healing, 16 cases had grade B healing and 11 cases had grade C healing; there was statistically significant difference in the level of skin flap healing between the two groups of patients ( P<0.05) . The exudation drying time were (3.79±1.22) d in the observation group and (3.21±1.38) d in the control group; the regression time of swelling were (5.23±1.06) d in the observation group and (3.89±1.19) d in the control group; the healing time of the flap wound in the observation group was (12.36±2.58) d, while in the control group it was (8.98±1.47) d; the differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The use of a hanging electronic baking lamp after surgery can improve the quality of skin flap recovery for patients undergoing hand injury flap repair and accelerate their recovery progress.
