ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography （ERCP） combined with oral cholangiopancreatography in the treatment of major duodenal papilla gallbladder polyps. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of eight patients with choledocholithiasis and gallbladder polyps who underwent ERCP and combined with oral cholangiopancreatography for major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy in Center of Digestive Endoscopy， Jilin People’s Hospital， from May 2022 to June 2024， and related data were collected， including the success rate of surgery， the technical success rate of gallbladder polyp removal， the superselective method of cystic duct， the time of operation， the time of gallbladder polyp removal， and surgical complications. ResultsBoth the success rate of surgery and the technical success rate of gallbladder polyp removal reached 100%， and of all eight patients， three patients used guide wire to enter the gallbladder under direct view， while five patients received oral cholangiopancreatography to directly enter the gallbladder. The time of operation was 51.88±12.34 minutes， and the time of gallbladder polyp removal was 23.13±10.94 minutes. The diameter of gallbladder polyp was 2‍ ‍—‍ ‍8 mm， and pathological examination showed inflammatory polyps in three patients， adenomatous polyps in one patient， and cholesterol polyps in four patients. There were no complications during or after surgery. The patients were followed up for 2‍ ‍—‍ ‍27 months after surgery， and no recurrence of gallbladder polyp was observed. ConclusionOral cholangiopancreatography is technically safe and feasible in endoscopic major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy.

Objective:To understand the epidemiological characteristics and spatiotemporal distribution of viral encephalitis in children and adolescents in Henan Province from 2012 to 2023.Methods:The information about viral encephalitis cases from October 1, 2012 to July 26, 2023 were collected from Zhengzhou Children's Hospital (National Children's Regional Medical Center),Henan Provincial Children's Hospital for the analyses on temporal distribution the cases, the severe illness rate, age distribution, pathogen type and imaging findings of the cases.Results:A total of 6 276 cases of viral encephalitis were included in this study after excluding cases with incomplete information. The cases mainly originated from Zhengzhou (38.96%), followed by Zhoukou (9.93%), Xuchang (8.68%), Zhumadian (7.90%) and Pingdingshan (7.39%). The cases in boys accounted for 62.13% and the cases in girls accounted for 37.87%. Most cases (72.45%) occurred in age group 7-13 years. The overall rate of severe illness cases was 4.51% from 2012 to 2023. There were significant differences in severe illness cases among different areas and years ( χ2=5.33, P=0.021; χ2=48.14, P<0.001). Enteroviruses were mainly detected (31.57%), in which Coxsackie virus was predominant (58.37%). Imaging findings showed that cerebral hemisphere damage was most common in children and adolescents with viral encephalitis (54.93%). Conclusions:From 2012 to 2023, more cases of viral encephalitis occurred in boys in Henan. Children and adolescents aged 7-13 years were the main affected group. The prevention of enteroviruses infection, especially Coxsackie virus, needs to be strengthened. Special attention should be paid to the prevention of cerebral hemisphere damage after viral encephalitis diagnosis.

Objective:Analyze the operation mode of the valuation investment of scientific and technological achievements in hospitals, and provide a certain reference for other hospitals to carry out valuation investment in scientific and technological achievements.Methods:This paper analyzed the origin and current situation of the valuation investment of scientific and technological achievements. Taking Peking University Cancer Hospital as an example, it made an in-depth analysis of the valuation investment model of scientific and technological achievements.Results:The study found that the valuation investment of scientific and technological achievements in hospitals includes several key links such as signing the Valuation Investment Agreement, signing the Shareholder Agreement and the Articles of Association, the registration and identification of technical contracts, the issuance of invoices, and deferred taxation. And several suggestions on how to apply this model for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements were put forward.Conclusions:Although the implementation process of scientific and technological achievements is cumbersome, the operation mode is diverse, and the ownership of equity is difficult to distinguish, the advantages are extremely obvious. It can closely combine technological capital and industrial capital, form a strong and effective technological alliance and a community of multiple interests, better use the market-oriented motivation of scientific and technological innovation, and carry out cutting-edge research in line with market prospects.

Objective:To explore the application effect of hydration therapy in patients with intermittent claudication (IC) of peripheral arterial disease, and to provide reference for clinical application.Methods:A randomized controlled trial method was used to select 86 patients with IC of peripheral arterial disease who attended the Department of Vascular Surgery of Shanxi Bethune Hospital from June to September 2023 as the study subjects by convenience sampling method, and they were divided into the control group and the intervention group by using the method of randomized numerical table, each group had 43 cases. In the control group, routine care was provided, and in the intervention group, hydration therapy was implemented on the basis of the control group. Ankle-brachial index, transcutaneous partial pressure of oxygen, and claudication distance were assessed in both groups 1d before and 6 months after the intervention.Results:Forty-two patients in each group completed the study, 21 males and 21 females, aged (61.33 ± 8.93) years in the intervention group; 24 males and 18 females, aged (61.33 ± 9.01) years in the control group. Compared with the ankle-brachial index, transcutaneous oxygen partial pressure and limp distance of the 2 groups 1 d before intervention, the differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05), and 6 months after the intervention, the transcutaneous oxygen partial pressure of the patients in the intervention group was (37.69 ± 8.86) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), and that of the control group was (29.69 ± 7.79) mmHg, and the differences between the 2 groups were statistically significant ( t=4.40, P<0.05). The differences in patients′ transcutaneous partial pressure of oxygen and limp distance before and after intervention in the intervention group were -7.00 (-13.00, -1.75) mmHg and -50.00 (-100.00, 0.00) m, respectively, and in the control group were 0.01 (-1.00, 1.00) mmHg and 0.01 (-1.25, 20.00) m, respectively, and the differences between the 2 groups were statistically were statistically significant ( Z=5.59, 4.33, both P<0.05). Conclusions:Hydration therapy improves transcutaneous oxygen partial pressure values and claudication distance in patients with peripheral arterial disease IC, and improves microcirculation of the affected limbs in patients.

Objective:To conduct a scoping review to analyse the types, performance, advantages and disadvantages of cognitive function assessment tools for ICU patients, to provide a reference for the evaluation of cognitive function in ICU patients in future.Methods:A scoping review study was conducted, literature on cognitive function assessment tools for ICU patients in 9 domestic and foreign databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, VIP Database, China Biology Medicine disc, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase and CINAHL were systematically searched. The search period was from the establishment of the database to May 20, 2024. Literature was independently screened by 2 researchers and relevant information was extracted and summarized.Results:Totally 17 studies were included, with 9 tools for assessing cognitive function in ICU patients, including 6 questionnaires, 1 test battery, 1 assessment software, and 1 telephone interview questionnaire. All of above were generalizable tools, except for the Chinese and English versions of the John-Hopkins Adapted Cognitive Exam as ICU-specific tools. The Mini-Mental State Examination was the most widely used assessment scale.Conclusions:Appropriate assessment tools should be selected according to the specific clinical setting, but there is still a lack of specialized and standardized assessment tools for cognitive dysfunction in ICU patients. In the future, standardized tools which fit our cultural context for evaluating cognitive function in ICU patients should be developed.

Pin site infection is the most common complication during external skeletal fixation. Its incidence ranges from 12% to 69%. Domestic and international guidelines and consensus recommend that patients be cared for by dressing change at pin sites during external fixation. However, there have been no standardized procedures in clinic for dressing change at pin sites. Therefore, this tutorial intends to propose for domestic nursing colleagues standardized procedures for dressing change at pin sites during external skeletal fixation, based on the guidelines and consensus published, relevant literature and our own working experience.

BACKGROUND: Existing evidence suggests that fruit consumption is a significant influencing factor for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but this is unclear in the Chinese population. We examined the association of fresh fruit consumption with the risk of COPD-related hospitalization and death in a nationwide, population-based prospective cohort from China. METHODS: Between 2004 and 2008, the China Kadoorie Biobank recruited >0.5 million adults aged 30 to 79 years from ten diverse regions across China. After excluding individuals diagnosed with major chronic diseases and prevalent COPD, the prospective analysis included 421,428 participants. Cox regression was used to calculate the hazard ratios (HRs) for the association between fresh fruit consumption and risk of COPD-related hospitalization and death, with adjustment for established and potential confounders. RESULTS: During a mean follow-up of 10.9 years, 11,292 COPD hospitalization events and deaths were documented, with an overall incidence rate of 2.47/1000 person-years. Participants who consumed fresh fruit daily had a 22% lower risk of COPD-related hospitalization and death compared with non-consumers (HR = 0.78, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.71-0.87). The inverse association between fresh fruit consumption and COPD-related hospitalization and death was stronger among non-current smokers and participants with normal body mass index (BMI) (18.5 kg/m 2 ≤ BMI < 24.0 kg/m 2 ); the corresponding HRs for daily fresh fruit consumption were 0.78 (95% CI: 0.68-0.89) and 0.69 (95% CI: 0.59-0.79) compared with their counterparts, respectively. CONCLUSIONS High-frequency fruit consumption was associated with a lower risk of COPD in Chinese adults. Increasing fruit consumption, together with cigarette cessation and weight control, should be considered in the prevention and management of COPD.

Objective:To analyze the relevant situation of hospital patents, and to put forward suggestions to improve the efficiency of patent transformation.Methods:The Patsnap database was used to analyze the general trend, technical field distribution, application contribution, cooperative application, patent value, and achievement transformation of Peking University Cancer Hospital from 2012 to 2021, to provide a reference for the patent layout and achievement transformation of the hospital.Results:Through analysis, the number of hospital patent applications in recent years is obviously increasing, mainly for invention patents; the patent IPC classification is concentrated in A61, C12, C07, and other technical fields; the first inventors of the patents are concentrated; the cooperative patent applications were rare; the patent values are not high.Conclusions:The hospital should build an achievement promotion platform, establish a science and innovation community, set up an incubation fund, and innovate a transformation mode, to improve innovation-driven efficiency.

Background::Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is underrecognized, and its association with coronary artery disease (CAD) remains limited, especially in China. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of FH and its relationship with CAD in a large Chinese cohort.Methods::FH was defined using the Make Early Diagnosis to Prevent Early Death (MEDPED) criteria. The crude and age-sex standardized prevalence of FH were calculated based on surveys of the Prediction for Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Risk in China (China-PAR) project during 2007-2008. The associations of FH with incident CAD and its major subtypes were estimated with the cohort-stratified multivariate Cox proportional hazard models based on the data from the baseline to the last follow-up (2018-2020).Results::Among 98,885 included participants, 190 participants were defined as FH. Crude and age-sex standardized prevalence and 95% confidence interval (CI) of FH were 0.19% (0.17%–0.22%) and 0.13% (0.10%–0.16%), respectively. The prevalence varied across age groups and peaked in the group of 60–<70 years (0.28%), and the peak prevalence (0.18%) in males was earlier, yet lower than the peak crude prevalence in females (0.41%). During a mean follow-up of 10.7 years, 2493 cases of incident CAD were identified. After multivariate adjustment, FH patients had a 2.03-fold greater risk of developing CAD compared to non-FH participants.Conclusions::The prevalence of FH was estimated to be 0.19% in the participants, and it was associated with an elevated risk of incident CAD. Our study suggests that early screening of FH has certain public health significance for the prevention of CAD.
