ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between triglyceride high-density cholesterol-glucose body index （TyHGB） and gestational diabetes mellitus （GDM）. MethodsThis single-center retrospective cohort study was conducted. A total of 723 singleton pregnant women who received prenatal care and delivered at Lingnan Hospital， the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University， from May 2024 to July 2024 were enrolled. Clinical baseline data and laboratory test results in the first trimester （before 13⁺⁶ weeks of gestation） were collected. Based on the tertiles of the TyHGB index were equally divided into 3 groups. Clinical baseline data， and GDM risk were compared among the three groups. ResultsCompared with the control group， the GDM group had older maternal age， higher Pre-pregnancy BMI， FPG， TG， and higher values of 75 g OGTT fasting plasma glucose， 1 h plasma glucose， and 2 h plasma glucose. The early-pregnancy TyHGB index， andincidence of macrosomiawere all higher in the GDM group than in the control group （ all P<0.05）， whereas gestational weight gain （GWG） was lower than that of the control group （P<0.05）. The individuals were divided into three groups according to the tertiles of the TyHGB index. Significantly differences were identified among TyHGB index tertiles in maternal age， parity， Pre-BMI， FPG， TC， TG， HDL-C， LDLL-C， Ur， 75 g OGTT fasting plasma glucose， 1 h plasma glucose， 2 h plasma glucose， GWG， neonatal birth weight， GDM， GH， macrosomia incidence， and cesarean section rate（all P<0.05）. Further trend test analysis found that matenal age， parity， Pre-BMI， FPG， TC， TG， LDL-C， 75 g OGTT_FPG， 75 g OGTT_1 h PG and 75 g OGTT_2 h PG level， neonatal birth weight， GDM， GH， incidence of macrosomia and cesarean section rate all showed an upward trend. The multivariate Logistic regression models revealed that there was an independent positive correlation between TyHGB index and the risk of GDM. Curve fitting by restricted cubic splines （RCS） were used to assess linearity between TyHGB and GDM， and there was a linear dose-response relationship between TyHGB and GDM （P _{nonlinear test} = 0.597）. The threshold value for early pregnancy TyHGB index to predict GDM was 6.449 ， with an area under the curve （AUC） of 0.644 （95% CI： 0.597-0.691）， sensitivity of 0.480 ， and specificity of 0.779. After adjusting for maternal age， Pre-BMI， family history of diabetes， and history of GDM， the AUC for the early pregnancy TyHGB index to predict GDM was 0.672 （95% CI： 0.626-0.718）. ConclusionThe early-pregnancy TyHGB index is independently associated with GDM risk， and exhibits a linear dose-response relationship with GDM. It may serve as an early screening and monitoring tool for pregnant women at high risk of GDM. However， its predictive value for GDM requires further validation.

Objective To analyze the characteristics and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria isolated from patients undergoing solid organ transplantation(SOT)at West China Hospital,Sichuan University in re-cent years,in order to provide a basis for empirical anti infective treatment after SOT surgery.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the isolation of major pathogens and their resistance to common anti-biotics from various specimens collected from patients undergoing kidney transplantation(KT),liver trans-plantation(LTx),and lung transplantation(LT)at West China Hospital,Sichuan University from 2017 to 2022.Results A total of 1 077 non-duplicate strains of pathogens were isolated from the samples of patients with infections after SOT surgery during the 6-year period,of which approximately 74.8％(806/1 077)were Gram negative bacteria and 25.2％(271/1 077)were Gram positive bacteria.There were differences in the distribution of pathogenic bacteria among different types of SOT groups and different specimens.Compared to E.coli isolated from urine specimens,the strains of E.coli isolated from non-urinary specimens exhibited a higher resistance rate to common antimicrobial drugs(P＜0.05).The resistance rate of E.coli to β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations(cefoperazone/sulbactam and piperacillin/tazobactam)in the LTx group was significantly higher than that in the KT group(P＜0.05).The overall proportion of multidrug-resistant bac-teria after SOT surgery was 11.3％(122/1 077).The proportion of carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter bau-mannii and carbapenem resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa among the same group and type of pathogens in the LTx group(93.8％,37.5％)was significantly higher than that in the KT group(55.8％,9.2％).Conclusion The specimen types and strain distribution of pathogenic bacteria after different types of SOT surgery are different.The same pathogenic bacteria have different antibiotic resistance among different types of SOT groups and specimens.Therefore,it is necessary to strengthen the pathogen examination after different types of SOT and optimize the anti infection treatment plan related to transplantation based on drug sensitivity re-sults.

Background: Millions of patients undergo cardiac surgery each year. The red blood cell distribution width (RDW) could help predict the prognosis of patients who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass surgery. We investigated whether the RDW has robust predictive value for the 30-day mortality among patients in an intensive care unit (ICU) after undergoing cardiac surgery. Methods: Using the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV Database, we retrieved data for 11,634 patients who underwent cardiac surgery in an ICU. We performed multivariate Cox regression analysis to model the association between the RDW and 30-day mortality and plotted Kaplan–Meier curves. Subgroup analyses were stratified using relevant covariates. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine the predictive value of the RDWs. Results: The total 30-day mortality rate was 4.2% (485/11,502). The elevated-RDW group had a higher 30-day mortality rate than the normal-RDW group (P < 0.001). The robustness of our data analysis was confirmed by performing subgroup analyses. Each unit increase in the RDW was associated with a 17% increase in 30-day mortality when the RDW was used as a continuous variable (adjusted hazard ratio = 1.17, 95% confidence interval, 1.10–1.25). Our ROC results showed the predictive value of the RDW. Conclusions An elevated RDW was associated with a higher 30-day mortality in patients after undergoing cardiac surgery in an ICU setting. The RDW can serve as an efficient and accessible method for predicting the mortality of patients in ICUs following cardiac surgery.

Objective To evaluate the maturity and metabolic status of heterotopic ossification(HO)by single-photon emission computed tomography(SPECT)/CT fusion bone imaging.Methods The clinical and SPECT/CT fusion bone imaging data of 57 patients with HO confirmed by pathology or follow-up were analyzed retrospectively.HO was graded by CT,and the characteristics of radioactive concentration of HO were analyzed.Results Of 57 cases,single lesion in 52 cases,and multiple lesions in 5 cases,with a total of 63 lesions,mostly located in the hip joint(55.6%,35/63)and thigh(19.0%,12/63).There were 41 lesions in the middle stage and 22 lesions in the late stage.In the visual evaluation of SPECT/CT fusion bone imaging,the middle stage lesions were mostly clumps or flakes,with moderate or high radioactive concentration(75.6%,31/41),furthermore,the concentration range was larger than or equal to the total or limited range of CT ossification(21/41,50.1%),with high concentration mainly located in the mixed areas of ossification density.The concentration of the late stage lesions was mostly non-radioactive(72.7%,16/22).Conclusion SPECT/CT fusion bone imaging can show the range,degree and maturity of HO radioactive concentration,and can accurately locate the area with osteoblastic activity,which provides scientific basis for the selection of surgical timing.

Objectives:To analyze the clinical features of juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) and investigate the characteristics of diagnosis and treatment of this disease.Methods:The clinical data of seven children patients with JMML who received treatment in The First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University between April 2015 and February 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical efficacy of different treatments was analyzed.Results:The median age at diagnosis of JMML was 8 months and 4 days for seven children patients. Fever was the principal cause of treatment, and it was mostly accompanied by hepatosplenomegaly. The median value of peripheral blood leukocyte count was 36.1 × 10 9/L, and it was 4.5 × 10 9/L for mononuclear cell count, 88 g/L for hemoglobin level, and 47 × 10 9/L for platelet count. Myeloid immature cells were found in peripheral blood smears of six patients. Chromosome examination results revealed 7-monomer in one patient, and normal karyotype in six patients. Hemoglobin level was increased in six patients. Gene detection results revealed PTPN11+NF1 mutation in one patient, N-RAS mutation in two patients, and K-RAS mutation in one patient. Three patients gave up treatment, three patients received low-intensity chemotherapy , and these six patients died of complicated infection. One patient received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and the patient survived without any event after 14 months of follow-up. Conclusion:The age of JMML onset is low. JMML has poor clinical specificity. Gene detection is helpful for early diagnosis of JMML. Low-intensity chemotherapy can prolong survival period, but it can not improve prognosis. Infection is the principal cause of death in patients with JMML. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the only possible method to cure the disease.

In recent years, the incidence rate of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) keeps increasing, and the age of onset tends to become younger. NAFLD has become one of the major public health problems in the 21st century. This article reviews the research advances in the association between some chemokines (CCL2, CCL5, CXCL8, and CXCL10) and NAFLD in recent years, in order to provide directions for the research on the pathogenesis and prevention and treatment of NAFLD.

Objective To explore the value of SPECT/CT in evaluation on long-term healing of limb fractures.Methods SPECT/CT imaging characteristics of 68 patients with limb fractures 6 months after treatment were analyzed retrospectively,and the self-healing property of fractures was evaluated.Compared with clinical follow-up results or surgical findings,the accuracy of SPECT/CT in evaluation on long-term healing of fractures was calculated.Results For all 68 patients with limb fractures,X-ray and CT were not able to determine whether the fractures would heal in the future.On SPECT/CT fusion images,radioactivity concentrations through the fracture lines and cross on both sides of fracture were found in 52 patients,which indicated that the fractures were in the process of healing and had the ability of healing in the future.Clinical follow-up confirmed that fractures then healed in 46 patients,while in 6 patients did not.Another 16 patients showed no nuclide concentrations on the fractures,indicated that the fractures were nonunion and had little ability of healing in the future,and were finally confirmed with surgery.The accuracy of SPECT/CT in evaluation on fracture healing was 91.18％ (62/68).Conclusion SPECT/CT imaging can accurately evaluate the long-term healing of limb fractures,which contributes to therapeutic planning in the clinic.
