Objective To analyze the epidemic characteristics of scarlet fever in Pudong New Area, Shanghai from 2010 to 2023, and to grasp the incidence of scarlet fever in time. Methods The information on the registration of scarlet fever in Pudong New Area, Shanghai from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2023 was collected through the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System, and descriptive epidemiological methods and Joinpoint regression model were used for data analysis. Results From 2010 to 2023, a total of 5 669 cases of scarlet fever were reported in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, and no deaths were reported. The annual reported incidence rate was 7.2/100 000, and the overall trend was decreasing year by year. In terms of time distribution, the incidence peaks were in spring and winter. The incidence rate in males was higher than that in females, and it mainly affected children, especially those aged 2 to 10 years. Joinpoint regression model analysis showed that the annual percentage change (APC) and average annual percentage change (AAPC) of the reported incidence rate of scarlet fever from 2010 to 2023 showed that the incidence rate was fluctuating, and the incidence rate decreased significantly from 2019 to 2023 (APC was -53.7%). Conclusion The reported incidence rate of scarlet fever in Pudong New Area in Shanghai has decreased year by year from 2010 to 2023, and children remain the focus of prevention and control.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of Huangkui capsules on targeted drug-related proteinuria in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of HCC patients with targeted drug-related proteinuria from June 2023 to December 2024 at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University. According to the treatment plan, patients were divided into the conventional treatment group and the Huangkui combination treatment group (Huangkui capsules combined with conventional treatment), and the clinical efficacy between the two groups was compared. The logistic regression analysis was used to identify the main factors affecting treatment efficacy. Results The Huangkui combination treatment group (n＝29) showed a significantly higher overall effective rate (79.3% vs 42.3%, P＝0.005), and an earlier proteinuria improvement (median time: 3 months vs 6 months, P＝0.008) than the conventional treatment group (n＝26) . The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blocker (ARB) using (OR＝0.190, 95%CI 0.045-0.808, P＝0.025), targeted drug adjustment (OR＝0.132, 95%CI 0.030-0.581, P＝0.007), and Huangkui capsules using (OR＝0.168, 95%CI 0.039-0.730, P＝0.017) were protective factors for treatment efficacy of targeted drug-related proteinuria. Conclusions On the basis of conventional treatment, additive treatment with Huangkui capsules can alleviate targeted drug-related proteinuria faster and more effectively in HCC patients.

Combined small cell lung cancer(C-SCLC)accounts for approximately 20%of all SCLC cases,while the propotion of C-SCLC mixed with squamous cell carcinoma component comprises less than 3%.At the pathological level,accurate diagnosis requires to distinguish it from other lung tumor types,and even rely on molecular testing.This article presents a case of a 67-year-old patient initially diagnosed with a peripheral lung tumor.The patient underwent comprehensive multidisciplinary management,including surgical resection,postoperative pathological differential diagnosis,chemotherapy,thoracic radiotherapy,brain metastasis,cranial radiotherapy,dynamic follow-up of imaging changes after cranial radiotherapy,and cranial surgery.Molecular residual disease(MRD)monitoring was integrated at critical time points during dynamic monitoring to inform personalized treatment decisions.The early MDT has brought the patient′s condition under control,and the overall survival of the patient exceeded 30 months.Through the introduction of the diagnosis and treatment process of this patient,we aim to offer novel perspectives on clinical decision-making for C-SCLC.

Objective:To explore the effect of EAERI (E: environment; A: accompany; E: emotion; R: respect; I: information) support strategies in the application of nurse second victims in restoring the passage of a patient safety incident, and to provide support to nurse second victims experiencing a safety incident in restoring the incident and mitigating secondary victimization from the incident.Methods:The method of historical comparison was adopted. A convenience sampling method was used to select nurses who experienced patient safety events in Shanxi Bethune Hospital (Shanxi Academy of Medical Sciences) from January 2023 to February 2024 as the study subjects, which were divided into observation group and control group by the historical control grouping method. The observation group used the EAERI support strategy for patient safety incident reduction, and the control group used the conventional reduction method. The second victims of the nurses in both groups were assessed for their level of harm and support in the patient safety incident using the Second Victim Experience and Support Tool before and after the event reduction, respectively.Results:A total of 124 second victims completed the study. There were 63 cases in the control group, including 13 males and 50 females, with an age of (30.24 ± 4.91) years old. There were 20 males and 41 females in the observation group, with an age of (30.85 ± 5.50) years old. Before the restoration event, there was no significant differences in the total scores of victim experience and support, the degree of injury and the degree of support between the two groups (all P>0.05). The total scores of victim experience and support, the degree of injury and the degree of support were (89.35 ± 10.69), (44.57 ± 6.19), (44.78 ± 9.40) points in the control group, and (64.13 ± 9.36), (33.56 ± 8.84), (30.56 ± 3.17) points in the observation group. The differences were significant between the two groups ( t=14.02, 8.07, 11.29, all P<0.01). Conclusions:The EAERI support strategy is feasible and effective. The implementation of the EAERI support strategy can reduce the degree of injury when the second victim of the nurse restores the safety incident and improve the degree of support.

Objective To construct a nursing consultation information system based on consultation process and information interaction needs and explore its application effect.Methods The nursing consultation process and information interaction needs were analyzed;the information process,content modules and information interaction interface were designed;the structured records for nursing consultation were developed.The system was officially applied in January 2024.The application effect was evaluated by comparing the completion time of nursing consultations,nursing consultation record quality score,nursing consultation evaluation completion rate,and satisfaction rate before(August 2023 to October 2023)and after(January 2024 to March 2024)the application of the information system.Results After the application of the nursing consultation information system,the implementation rate of nursing consultation for inpatients increased from 1.27％ before the application of the system to 1.47％(P=0.019).The completion time of nursing consultation in the whole hospital reduced from 351(225,421)minutes before the application of the system to 310(156,402)minutes(P＜0.001),and there was a statistically significant difference in the completion time of nursing consultation among the 3 specialties of intravenous therapy,blood purification,and diabetes nursing(P＜0.05).The quality score of nursing consultation records increased from 90.5(82.0,100)points to 95.5(92.0,100)points(P＜0.001).The completion rate of nursing consultation evaluation was higher than those before the system application,with statistical significance(21.6％ vs 78.4％,P＜0.001).Conclusion Nursing consultation information system based on information interaction needs can improve the implementation of nursing consultation for inpatients,shorten the completion time of nursing consultations,improve the writing quality of nursing consultation records and the completion rate of nursing consultation evaluation,and it succeeded in real-time quality monitoring.

Objective::To analyze fetal renal abnormality genetic features and the prenatal characteristics of the 17q12 microdeletion syndrome.Methods::This prospective cohort study examined prenatal ultrasound findings of renal abnormalities in pregnant women who underwent single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array or copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) testing on amniotic fluid or fetal tissue at Tianjin Central Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital between January 2016 and August 2022. The study cohort comprised women with advanced maternal age, fetal ultrasound anomalies, high-risk non-invasive prenatal testing results, or suspected 17q12 microdeletion syndrome. Comprehensive clinical data, including maternal age, detailed ultrasound findings, and pregnancy outcomes, were systematically collected. SNP-array analysis was conducted using an Affymetrix CytoScan 750 K Array Chip to identify CNVs and loss of heterozygosity, while CNV-seq was performed on the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. Detected variants were classified according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 27.0.Results::Abnormal renal development was identified in 141 patients, among whom 26 exhibited hyperechogenic kidneys (HCK). Of these, 12 cases were associated with 17q12 microdeletion syndrome, while the remaining 14 were linked to other chromosomal abnormalities. When excluding patients with HCK, those diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease demonstrated a higher prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities compared to those with multicystic dysplastic kidney and renal dysplasia. Although isolated conditions such as horseshoe kidney, hydronephrosis, ectopic kidney, and unilateral kidney typically presented with normal chromosomal findings, the incidence of chromosomal abnormalities increased when these conditions coexisted with other anomalies. A detailed analysis of the correlation between 17q12 microdeletion syndrome and HCK revealed that 12 out of the 14 patients diagnosed with 17q12 microdeletion syndrome exhibited HCK. Genetic testing confirmed the syndrome in seven patients, with five cases attributed to novel mutations and two cases resulting from inherited mutations.Conclusion::Fetal HCK was closely associated with the 17q12 microdeletion syndrome, and polycystic kidney disease showed a higher rate of chromosomal abnormalities. Chromosome test results were mostly normal in patients with other renal abnormalities, such as kidney dysplasia, horseshoe kidneys, hydronephrosis, kidney deficiency, and ectopic kidneys. Prenatal diagnosis is recommended, especially in cases of non-isolated fetal renal abnormalities. This study provides strong evidence supporting a link between fetal renal abnormalities and genetic syndromes.

Objective To investigate the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)guided fine needle aspiration(FNA)in diagnosing the nature of type 4 thyroid nodules by thyroid imaging re-porting and data system(TI-RADS).Methods A total of 120 patients with TI-RADS type 4 thyroid nodules were selected as subjects.Sixty patients underwent CEUS-guided FNA(CEUS group),while the other 60 patients underwent conventional ultrasound-guided FNA(conventional ultrasound group).Using pathological results as the gold standard,Kappa consistency tests were used to analyze the diagnostic consistency of conventional ultrasound-guided FNA and CEUS-guided FNA for TI-RADS type 4 thyroid nodules.Results Among 120 patients with TI-RADS type 4 thyroid nodules(138 nodules),85 malignant nodules and 53 benign nodules were confirmed by pathology.In the CEUS group,there were 28 benign nodules and 42 malignant nodules(40 papillary thyroid carcino-mas and 2 medullary carcinomas).In the conventional ultrasound group,there were 25 benign nod-ules and 43 malignant nodules(39 papillary thyroid carcinomas and 4 medullary carcinomas).The false positive rate and false negative rate of conventional ultrasound-guided FNA for diagnosing malignant TI-RADS type 4 thyroid nodules were 3.62％and 5.07％,respectively.For CEUS-guided FNA,the rates were 2.17％and 2.90％,respectively.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of con-ventional ultrasound-guided FNA for diagnosing the nature of TI-RADS type 4 thyroid nodules were 83.72％,80.00％and 82.35％,respectively,with Kappa value of 0.627.For CEUS-guided FNA,these values were 90.48％,89.29％and 90.00％,respectively,with Kappa value of 0.793.Based on pathological examination,the diagnostic agreement rates for malignant TI-RADS type 4 thyroid nodules were 79.07％for conventional ultrasound-guided FNA and 83.33％for CEUS-guided FNA,with Kappa values of 0.719 and 0.786,respectively.Conclusion CEUS-guided FNA can provide high-resolution,real-time dynamic imaging information,thereby improving the sensitivity and specificity of diagnosing the nature of TI-RADS type 4 thyroid nodules.

Objective To investigate the impact of hyperuricemia on risk of deep vein thrombo-sis after joint replacement surgery.Methods A total of 953 patients undergoing joint replacement surgery were enrolled in this study.Among them,662 patients did not develop thrombosis postopera-tively(postoperative non-thrombosis group),while 291 patients developed thrombosis(postoperative thrombosis group).Data including gender,age,surgical procedure,body mass index,hypertension,coronary heart disease,diabetes,preoperative D-dimer positivity(≥0.5 mg/L),prothrombin time,prothrombin activity,international normalized ratio,activated partial thromboplastin time,fibrinogen,thrombin time,white blood cell count,red blood cell count,hemoglobin,hematocrit and platelet count were analyzed.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors for postoperative deep vein thrombosis.Results Univariate analysis showed that age,gender,surgical procedure(total knee arthroplasty),hypertension,diabetes,hyperuricemia,preoperative red blood cell count,preoperative hematocrit and preoperative D-dimer positivity were influencing factors for deep vein thrombosis after joint replacement surgery(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis re-vealedthat age(＞60 years),surgical procedure(total knee arthroplasty)and hyperuricemia were independent risk factors for postoperative deep vein thrombosis(P＜0.05).Conclusion Hyperuri-cemia is an independent risk factor for deep vein thrombosis after joint replacement surgery.
