Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of dissociative symptoms induced by esketamine hydrochloride nasal spray in patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD).Methods:The medical records of patients in phase Ⅲ clinical trials for the treatment of TRD who received esketamine hydrochloride nasal spray in Beijing Anding Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2018 to February 2021 were collected. The general situation of patients (age, gender, comorbid diseases, etc.), the medication of esketamine hydrochloride nasal spray, the combined use of antidepressants, the time from medication to the occurrence of dissociative symptoms each time, duration, severity, evaluation results of causal relationship with esketamine application, intervention and prognosis were recorded, and a retrospective descriptive statistical analysis was performed.Results:A total of 21 patients with TRD were enrolled in the study, including 17 (81.0%) with dissociative symptoms, 10 males and 7 females; the age ranged from 20 to 53 years, with a median age of 36 years. All patients were treated with esketamine hydrochloride by nasal spray. The first dose was 56 mg, and the other seven doses were 56 mg or 84 mg, twice a week, lasting for 4 weeks. The 17 patients were all given combination treatment with oral antidepressants. A total of 88 times of dissociative symptoms occurred in the 17 patients. The time from medication to the onset of dissociative symptoms ranged from 4 to 128 min, with a median time of 15 min. The duration of dissociative symptoms ranged from 12 to 326 minutes, with a median time of 70 minutes. The dissociative symptoms were mostly mild. The causal relationship analysis between the esketamine hydrochloride nasal spray and the dissociative symptoms showed that it was definitely related in 6 cases, probably in 1 case, and possibly in 10 cases. The dissociative symptoms in all patients were subsided without intervention.Conclusions:Esketamine hydrochloride nasal spray can cause dissociative symptoms in patients with TRD, most of which occur within 30 minutes after the treatment. The duration of symptoms in most patients is less than 120 minutes, most of which are mild and can subside on their own, and the prognosis is good.

Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of the minimally invasive treatment of unstable pelvic fractures with the blunt head technique of Kirschner wire and 3D-printed external template technique.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted of the clinical data of 21 patients with unstable pelvic fracture who had undergone minimally invasive treatment at Department of Orthopaedics, Union Hospital from May 2016 to July 2018 using 3D-printed external templates and the blunt head technique of Kirschner wire. There were 7 males and 14 females with an age of 43.6 years (from 19 to 65 years). According to the Tile classification, there were 3 cases of B1, 7 ones of B2, 6 ones of C1 and 5 ones of C2. The intraoperative fluoroscopy, operation time, postoperative fracture reduction and functional recovery of the pelvis at the last follow-up were recorded.Results:The 21 patients were followed up for an average of 16.3 months (from 12 to 24 months). A total of 33 wires were inserted in the 21 patients, including 15 S 1 ones and 18 S 2 ones. The intraoperative fluoroscopy ranged from 13 to 27 times, averaging 21.8 times. The operation time ranged from 65 to 130 min, averaging 88.6 min. The anterior subcutaneous internal fixation was used to fix the anterior ring in 9 patients. No vascular injury occurred during the operation. By the Matta criteria, the postoperative fracture reduction was assessed as excellent in 14 cases, good in 5, and fair in 2, giving an excellent to good rate of 90.5% (19/21). By the Majeed scoring system, the pelvic function at the last follow-up was assessed as excellent in 10 cases, good in 8, and fair in 3, giving an excellent to good rate of 85.7% (18/21). Lateral femoral cutaneous nerve injury occurred in 2 patients but was recovered by the 3-month follow-up. No other complications were follwed up. Conclusion:The minimally invasive treatment of unstable pelvic fractures with the blunt head technique of Kirschner wire assissted by 3D-printed external templates is safe and effective, showing advatages of reduced fluoroscopic frequency and operation time.

Objective To explore methods to measure the management level of Chinese hospitals in natural conditions of Chinese hospitals, for improvement of their operation efficiency. Methods The methodology of World Management Survey( WMS) was introduced, and the questionnaire was localized using expert consultation method. Double-blind telephone interviews were conducted to investigate the management level of Chinese hospitals in the four dimensions of standardized operation, performance monitoring, target setting and talent management. Results The management level of hospitals in China varied greatly from places. Among them, the hospital management scoring was found to range from 2. 50 to 2. 75 in most cases, averaging 2. 55. These hospitals scored relatively poor at the four specific management practices of hospital layout(2.48), performance communication(2.27), talents retention, and clarity and comparability of objectives(2. 45). Management level of a hospital was correlated to such factors as its history, ownership form, human capital and hospital size. Conclusions This study uses WMS methodology to quantify Chinese hospital management. The overall management level of Chinese hospitals is expected to improve with much gaps to cover. At this stage, it is imperative to solve the unbalanced and inadequate development of hospital management levels, among regions, hospital grades and forms of ownership.
