OBJECTIVE To analyze the distribution of the nasopharyngeal microbiota in children with refractory chronic sinusitis and adenoid hypertrophy using 16S rRNA next-generation high-throughput sequencing technology,and to compare the effects of adenoidectomy on the nasopharyngeal microbiota in such patients,with the aim of providing microbiological evidence for the clinical treatment of refractory chronic sinusitis with adenoid hypertrophy.METHODS Children diagnosed with chronic sinusitis with adenoid hypertrophy who visited Chengdu Women and Children's Central Hospital from January 2024 to March 2025 and whose symptoms were not controlled after drug treatment were selected.They were divided into a non-surgical group and a surgical group based on whether they underwent adenoidectomy.The VAS scores,Lund-Kennedy scores,and microbial community detection rates between the two groups were compared.RESULTS The final VAS scores and Lund-Kennedy scores for surgical group were both lower than those for non-surgical group,with statistically significant differences(tVAS score=3.491,P<0.001;tLund-Kennedy score=4.166,P<0.001).Comparisons of microbial α diversity analysis and β diversity at the phylum and genus levels between the two groups showed no statistically significant differences(tα diversity analysis=0.524,P=0.604;Rβ diversity at the phylum level=0.075,P=0.454;Rthe genus level=0.117,P=0.538).The dominant bacterial groups at the phylum level were the same in both groups,including Proteobacteria,Bacillales,Actinobacteria,Bacteroidetes,and Firmicutes,but the average relative abundance differed between the two groups.Species comparison analysis showed that at the phylum level,the abundance of Proteobacteria and Thermodesulfovibrio in surgical group was higher than that in non-surgical group;At the genus level,the abundance of the genus Moraxella was higher in non-surgical group than in surgical group,while the abundance of the genera Acidovorax,Stenotrophomonas,Delftia,Burkholderia,Caballeronia,Paraburkholderia,Lactobacillus,Devosia,norank_f_Muribaculaceae,Paracoccus,and Kocuria was lower in non-surgical group than in surgical group.CONCLUSION Children with refractory sinusitis and adenoid hypertrophy all have rich microbial communities in the nasopharynx.Adenoid surgery has no significant effect on the diversity of the nasopharyngeal microbial community.However,the composition of the microbial community has changed,and there are significant species differences,which may be related to the resolution of local obstruction after adenoidectomy and changes in the survival environment of the nasopharyngeal microbial community.

Objective:To investigate the effect of intradialytic cerebral blood flow (CBF) fluctuation on cognitive decline in middle-aged and elderly maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods:It was a prospective cohort study. MHD patients aged ≥50 years from Beijing Shijitan Hospital were enrolled from January 2023 to June 2023. Middle cerebral artery mean flow velocity (MFV) was serially monitored via transcranial Doppler (TCD) during dialysis sessions. Cognitive function was assessed at baseline and after 12-month follow-up using standardized neuropsychological tests: montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), auditory verbal learning test (AVLT 5), complex figure test (CFT), trail making test-B (TMT-B), Stroop color and word test (SCWT), and symbol digit modalities test (SDMT). ΔMFV was calculated as pre-to-post dialysis MFV difference. Multivariable linear regression was used to analyze the association of ΔMFV and cognition.Results:A total of 121 MHD patients were recruited with an age of (63.63±8.44) years. There were 97 males (80.2%), and the dialysis vintage was (55.08±54.73) months. Significant intradialytic MFV reductions were observed ( P<0.05). At 12 months, cognitive decline manifested in global cognition (MoCA), memory (CFT-memory), executive function (TMT-B, SCWT-C, SCWT-T), attention (SDMT), visuospatial ability (CFT-copy)(all P<0.05). Multivariable linear regression analysis revealed ΔMFV independently predicted declines in: MoCA ( B=0.066, 95% CI 0.018-0.113, P=0.007), AVLT5 ( B=0.050, 95% CI 0.004-0.097, P=0.035), TMT-B ( B=-1.955, 95% CI -3.453--0.457, P=0.011), SCWT-C ( B=0.298, 95% CI 0.112-0.484, P=0.002), SCWT-T ( B=-1.371, 95% CI -2.303--0.439, P=0.004). Conclusions:Hemodialysis induces acute CBF reductions detectable by TCD. Cumulative intradialytic CBF fluctuations may accelerate cognitive deterioration in middle-aged and elderly MHD populations, particularly affecting memory and executive domains.

Objective:To evaluate the long-term protective efficacy of the recombinant Chinese hamster ovary cell-derived hepatitis B vaccine(CHO-HepB)26 years post-vaccination in the rural China.Methods:Zhengding county,Hebei province was designated as a rural monitoring site for CHO-HepB efficacy. Study participants included individuals born between 1997 and 1999 who had completed the three-dose CHO-HepB primary series without booster doses. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in late 2024 using random sampling. Demographic and vaccination history data were collected via questionnaires,and hepatitis B virus(HBV)serological markers were detected using chemiluminescence. Historical surveillance data were integrated to infer infection statuses of HBsAg-positive individuals and evaluate longitudinal trends in anti-HBs seropositivity and antibody titers.Results:Among 178 participants(mean time since vaccination:26.2 years),the seroprevalence rates were 0.6% for HBsAg(95% CI:0.0%-1.6%),64.6% for anti-HBs(95% CI:57.6%-71.6%),and 1.1% for anti-HBc(95% CI:0.0%-2.7%). Compared to the pre-vaccination baseline HBsAg positivity of 11.3% in children under 10 years of age,the estimated vaccine protection rate was 95%. Two notable cases were identified:one with concurrent HBsAg and anti-HBc positivity and one with anti-HBs and anti-HBc positivity,suggestive of transient HBV exposure(1999—2009)without chronicity. Natural immune boosting was inferred for the latter case based on anti-HBs titer dynamics. Longitudinal analysis of four prior cross-sectional surveys(2005,2009,2013,and 2017)revealed no significant upward trends in HBsAg and anti-HBc positivity(both P>0.05)over 26 years,while anti-HBs seropositivity declined significantly( P<0.05)from 6 to 26 years post-vaccination. Conclusion:The CHO-HepB vaccine demonstrates sustained immunological persistence and robust long-term protection up to 26 years post-immunization. Continued emphasis on rigorous implementation of mother-to-child transmission prevention strategies is critical for future hepatitis B control.

Objective:To investigate the changes and associated factors of cerebral blood flow in middle-aged and elderly patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).Methods:This was a prospective observational study. End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients undergoing MHD aged over 50 years at Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2023 to June 2023 were included. General clinical data of the selected individuals were collected, and dialysis related indicators were recorded and calculated. Mean flow velocity (MFV) of the middle cerebral arterial was measured by transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) to represent cerebral blood flow throughout dialysis. Hemodialysis-related variables were collected. The MFV values of bilateral middle cerebral artery were measured through temporal windows at 7 time points: 15 minutes before dialysis (T1), 15 minutes (T2), 30 minutes (T3), 60 minutes (T4), 120 minutes (T5), 180 minutes (T6) during dialysis, and the endpoint of dialysis (T7), and the average values were recorded. The ΔMFV was calculated as pre-minus endpoint values of MFV. The Spearman rank correlation method was used to analyze the correlations between ΔMFV and dialysis-related variables, and multiple linear regression method was used to analyze the related factors of the changes in MFV.Results:This study included a total of 123 patients undergoing MHD, aged (63.63±8.44) years (range 50-85 years), including 99 males (80.5%). TCD examination demonstrated a decline trend in MFV throughout dialysis. The MFV at T7 was significantly lower than that at T1 ( Z=-7.650, P<0.001). The Spearman correlation analysis showed that the decline in MFV was correlated with ultrafiltration volume ( r=0.356), ultrafiltration rate ( r=0.371), the difference in systolic pressure (pre-analysis minus post-dialysis, r=0.251), the difference in mean arterial pressure (pre-dialysis minus post-dialysis, r=0.194), combined diabetes ( r=0.293), dialysis vintage ( r=0.220), Kt/V ( r=0.287), and serum albumin ( r=-0.295). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that combined with diabetes ( B=3.889, 95% CI 1.373-6.405, P=0.003), decreased serum albumin ( B=-0.456, 95% CI -0.877--0.036, P=0.034), increased ultrafiltration rate ( B=11.099, 95% CI 6.402-15.797, P<0.001) and the decline in systolic pressure ( B=0.062, 95% CI 0.008-0.116, P=0.026) were significantly associated with the decline in MFV throughout dialysis. Conclusions:In middle and elderly patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis, there is a decline trend in cerebral blood flow during hemodialysis. The combination of diabetes, lower serum albumin, higher ultrafiltration rate, and intradialytic systolic pressure decline are the risk factors influencing the intradialytic decline of cerebral blood flow.

Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a 6-month Ba Duan Jin exercise program in improving the balance of community-dwelling older adults.Methods:A two arms, parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted in 1 028 community residents aged 60-80 years in 40 communities in 5 provinces of China. Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test.Results:A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95% CI: 2.23-3.88) points ( P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95% CI: 4.03-5.37) points ( P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement ( P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions:This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics, pathological features, and diagnosis and treatment strategies of nasal chondromesenchymal hamartoma (NCMH) in infants and young children.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on seven cases of NCMH infants and young children admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University from April 2015 to January 2022. The cohort included 5 males and 2 females, aged from 6 days to 2 years and 3 months. General information, clinical symptoms, imaging findings, treatment plans, postoperative complications, recurrence and follow-up time were collected, summarized and analyzed. Additionally, immunohistochemical characteristics of the lesion were examined.Results:The clinical symptoms of 7 children included nasal congestion, runny nose, open mouth breathing, snoring during sleep, difficulty feeding, and strabismus. All patients underwent electronic nasopharyngoscopy examination, with 5 cases of tumors located in the right nasal cavity and 2 cases in the left nasal cavity. No case of bilateral nasal cavity disease was found. All 7 patients underwent complete imaging examinations, with 5 patients underwent MRI and CT examinations, 1 patient underwent CT examination only, and 1 patient underwent MRI examination only. The CT results showed that all tumors were broad-based, with uneven density, multiple calcifications and bone remodeling, and some exhibited multiple cystic components. The MRI results showed that the tumor showed low signal on T1 weighted imaging and high or slightly high signal on T2 weighted imaging. All patients were diagnosed through histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry, including 7 cases of Ki-67 and SMA (+), 5 cases of S-100 and Vimentin (+), and all EMA and GFAP were negative. All patients underwent endoscopic resection surgery through the nasal approach, with 3 cases using navigation technology. Five cases of tumors were completely removed, and two cases of tumors were mostly removed. No nasal packing was performed after surgery, and no postoperative nasal, ocular, or intracranial complication occurred in all patients. Follow up assessments conducted 6 to 84 months post-surgery revealed no instances of tumor recurrence in any of the patients.Conclusions:The clinical symptoms of children with NCHM mainly depend on the size and location of the tumor. Nasal endoscopic surgery is the main treatment method. In cases where critical structures like the skull base or orbit are implicated, staged surgical interventions may be warranted. Long-term follow-up is strongly advised to monitor for any potential recurrence or complications.
