Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of Mycoplasma pneumoniae ( Mp) infection among hospitalized children with acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) in a single center in Beijing and provide reference for the prevention and treatment of Mp infection. Methods:Nasopharyngeal aspirate (NPA) samples of hospitalized children with ARTIs were collected from Beijing Friendship Hospital during two periods: from April 2018 to March 2019 and from September 2020 to August 2022. qPCR was used to detect Mp nucleic acids, and for Mp-positive samples, the mixed infections with 15 common respiratory viruses were detected. Statistical analysis was conducted using Chi-square test, Fisher′s exact test, and independent samples t-test. Results:From April 2018 to March 2019, 1 572 NPA samples were collected, with 104 positive for Mp (6.62%). From September 2020 to August 2022, 622 samples were collected, with 22 Mp-positive samples (3.54%). There was statistically significant difference in the positive rates between the two time periods ( P<0.05). From April 2018 to March 2019, the positive rate of Mp was higher in children aged ≥5 years than in those <5 years [13.03% (46/353) vs 4.76% (58/1 219), P<0.05]; the positive rates in summer (9.54%, 35/367) and autumn (7.93%, 33/416) were higher than those in spring (3.03%, 11/363) and winter (5.87%, 25/426), with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05); co-infections with other respiratory viruses were detected in 42 out of the 104 Mp-positive cases (40.38%), primarily with human rhinovirus (35.71%, 15/42) or human coronavirus NL63 (19.05%, 8/42). From September 2020 to August 2022, Mp infections mainly occurred in children aged ≥5 years [72.73% (16/22)], and co-infections with other respiratory viruses were detected in four cases (18.18%, 4/22). The Mp-infected children were mainly diagnosed with pneumonia, and there was no significant difference in clinical symptoms between Mp-infected patients with or without viral coinfection. Conclusions:The positive rate of Mp among hospitalized children with ARTIs in Beijing from September 2020 to August 2022 is significantly lower than that observed from April 2018 to March 2019. Mp is an important cause of ARTIs in children, especially in patients aged ≥5 years. Mp infection is often accompanied by viral co-infections, with high incidence in summer and autumn.

Objective:To analyze the effect of joint management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) between specialty and community under the model of National Diabetes Prevention and Control Center (DPCC).Methods:A total of 2 527 T2DM patients managed by DPCC Pingshan Center of Shenzhen from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024 were retrospectively included. After management, the rate of downturn, reexamination rate, blood pressure compliance rate, metabolic indicators (waist circumference, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, blood lipids) and screening rate of chronic complications of diabetes (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, microvascular disease, diabetic peripheral neuropathy) were analyzed. Those included 2022 ( n=564), 2023 ( n=1 477), and 2024 ( n=2 527). Results:The downturn rate in 2022, 2023 and 2024 increased year by year (22.8% vs 67.2% vs 89.9%, P<0.01), and the review rate (41.1% vs 62.2% vs 52.7%, P<0.01), complication screening rate (51.6% vs 85.3% vs 62.2%, P<0.01), blood pressure compliance rate (53.1% vs 78.0% vs 67.2%, P<0.01), body mass index compliance rate (13.2% vs 17.3% vs 28.6%, P<0.01), fasting blood glucose meeting rate (46.4% vs 60.2% vs 68.5%, P<0.01), glycated hemoglobin meeting rate (58.4% vs 63.2% vs 45.6%, P<0.01) were relatively improved. Waist circumference compliance rate (30.6% vs 27.7% vs 21.6%) and blood lipid compliance rate (33.6% vs 35.5% vs 31.9%) were not significantly improved, and the review rate, blood pressure compliance rate and complication screening rate in 2024 were lower than those in 2023 and higher than those in 2022. Conclusions:The combined management of type 2 diabetes under the DPCC model has significant effects on improving the down-conversion rate, rediagnosis rate, blood pressure compliance rate, metabolic index compliance rate and the screening rate of diabetes-related chronic complications in patients with diabetes. At the same time, it was also found that with the progress of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, the review rate, complication screening rate, blood pressure, waist circumference, blood lipid and glycosylated hemoglobin reached the standard of patients decreased compared with the previous situation, which needs to be further analyzed and improved.

Objective:To analyze the factors affecting the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) performed by medical staff in hospital and to explore the training methods to enhance their in-hospital emergency response capabilities.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted, involving medical staff of intensive care unit (ICU) and general internal medicine wards in China-Japan Friendship Hospital in December 2021. The American Heart Association (AHA) resuscitation quality improvement (RQI) model was used to evaluate the skills of the subjects in performing external chest compressions and bag-mask ventilation on adult and infant simulators. While ICU subjects were undergoing RQI model objective assessment, two instructors also provided subjective scoring for their operations. The study compared the differences in RQI model objective assessment scores between ICU and general internal medicine ward subjects, between doctors and nurses, in the RQI model objective scoring for adult and infant resuscitation, in the scoring differences of different positions for chest compressions, and the differences between traditional subjective scoring and RQI objective scoring when ICU subjects were assessed for compression and ventilation.Results:A total of 75 medical staffs were enrolled, consisting of 50 from the ICU (including 24 doctors and 26 nurses) and 25 from the general internal medicine wards (including 10 doctors and 15 nurses). The ICU medical staff's scores for adult resuscitation skills were significantly higher than those of the general internal medicine ward medical staff [adult compression score: 82.5 (66.0, 96.5) vs. 65.0 (52.5, 74.5), adult ventilation score: 82.0 (68.8, 98.0) vs. 61.0 (48.0, 82.0), both P < 0.01]. The nursing group's compression scores for both adult and infant were significantly higher than those of the doctor group [adult compression score: 77.0 (68.5, 89.5) vs. 63.0 (40.8, 90.3), infant compression score: 54.4±25.1 vs. 41.5±18.5, both P < 0.05]. The compression and ventilation scores for the infant were significantly lower than those for adult resuscitation [compression score: 48 (29, 65) vs. 76 (58, 90), ventilation score: 56 (42, 75) vs. 76 (60, 96), both P < 0.01]. When the rescuer was positioned on the right side of the model, the compression score for the adult significantly increased [79.0 (65.0, 92.0) vs. 65.0 (51.3, 77.0), P < 0.05]. The ICU medical staff's traditional subjective scores of compression and ventilation assessments for adult were significantly higher than the RQI model objective scores [adult compression score: 88.8 (79.4, 92.5) vs. 82.5 (66.0, 95.5), adult ventilation score: 95.0 (80.0, 98.1) vs. 82.0 (68.8, 98.0), both P < 0.01]. Conclusions:Rich experience in emergency rescue is related to the improvement of CPR skills, and performing chest compressions from the right side of the adult model is more effective. Objective scoring of resuscitation skills based on the RQI model may more accurately reflect the performance of the trainees.

Objective:To study the postoperative complications and its risk factors in patients undergoing breast reconstruction with abdominal flaps.Methods:The clinical data of patients undergoing breast reconstruction with abdominal flaps at Department of Breast Oncoplastic Surgery, Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from Jan 2011 to Apr 2022 were reviewed.Results:Postoperative complications occurred in 95 of 484 patients (19.6%), 15.5% had flap complications, 5.2% had donor-site complications, and fat necrosis was the most common complication (11.9%). The rate of fat liquefaction decreased significantly through technical improvement (1.7% vs. 7.0%); By univariate analysis, there were statistically significant differences among the groups by reconstructive type, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, BMI, smoking history ( χ2=21.088, P<0.001; χ2=4.385, P=0.036; χ2=14.784, P=0.018; χ2=19.015, P=0.048). Unplanned reoperation statistically related to the timing of reconstruction, and reconstructive type ( χ2=7.316, P=0.007; χ2=17.167, P<0.001). Revision surgery significantly related to the timing of reconstruction and timing of radiation ( χ2=40.785, P<0.001; χ2=18.602, P<0.001);By multivariate analysis, deep inferior epigastric perforator flap, smoking history were independent risk factors for flap necrosis ( OR=0.084, 95% CI:0.022-0.325, P<0.001; OR=41.623, 95% CI:3.241-534.569, P=0.004) . Conclusions:Complications after breast reconstruction with abdominal flaps are related to many factors. The surgical risks should be carefully evaluated and personalized plan should be formulated before surgery.

Objective:To explore the model of first aid skills training based on competition.Method:The second-year residents who participated in the competition in 2021 ( n = 142) were selected. According to whether they attended BLS training in the first year, they were divided into group A ( n = 88) who attended BLS training and group B ( n = 54) who did not. Chi-square test, T test, Wilcoxon rank sum test and Logistic regression were used in our study. Results:There was no significant difference in gender and specialty between both groups (female, 62.5% vs. 68.5%, P= 0.466; TCM, 50% vs. 53.7%, P= 0.668), but the real resuscitation experience of group A was more than that of group B (40.9% vs. 9.3%, P= 0.000). The qualified rate of CPR and the compression score in group A was higher than that in group B [(81.8% vs. 61.1%, P = 0.006; (30±5) vs. (25 ±10), P= 0.001], including compression frequency, depth, rebound and compression/respiration rate (73.9% vs. 55.6%, P= 0.024; 88.6% vs. 70.4%, P= 0.006; 96.6% vs. 87%, P= 0.031). In the theoretical examination, the correct rates of electrocardiogram [(53.63±2.9)% vs. (50.44±2.57)%] and first aid medication [(57.38±3.55)%, P = 0.001] in the two groups were significantly lower than the qualified rate. After adjusting other factors, Logistic regression analysis showed that the CPR qualification rate in group A was 2.769 times higher than that in group B ( P= 0.015, 95% CI 1.215~6.311) Conclusions:The first aid skills training mode based on competition can objectively reflect first aid skills level of residents. We found that the quality of CPR skills was not related to gender, specialty and real CPR experiences but experience of BLS training was an independent influencing factor. And how to identify and manage arrhythmias and how to choose different emergency drugs are urgent emergency skills for residents to improve.

Objective:To isolate and culture WU polyomavirus (WUPyV), and to analyze the genome-wide evolutionary patterns, homology and population dynamics.Methods:Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the nasopharyngeal aspirate samples of hospitalized children with respiratory tract infection in Beijing Friendship Hospital during 2020 to 2022. Primary human airway epithelial cells cultured at the air-liquid interface were used to isolate and culture WUPyV. Whole genome sequence of the isolated strain was obtained by Sanger sequencing. For phylogenetic and evolutionary dynamics analysis, the whole genome was compared with the published whole genome sequences in GenBank database.Results:The detection rate of WUPyV was 4.7% (31/659) during 2020 to 2022, and a clinical strain BJ0593 of WUPyV type Ⅲc was successfully isolated. The homology of the whole genome and gene fragments of WUPyV was high. The average evolutionary rate of VP2 gene was about 1.256×10 -4 substitution/site every year, and the population dynamics of WUPyV tended to be flat in the last decade. Conclusions:This study successfully isolated a clinical WUPyV type Ⅲ strain for the first time, which provided the basis for further investigation on the molecular evolution and pathogenicity of WUPyV.
