OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for the early diagnosis， drug treatment and medication monitoring for patients with Lemierre’s syndrome. METHODS The doctors confirmed the diagnosis of the patient as having Lemierre’s syndrome based on the patient’s condition and the results of metagenomic next-generation sequencing （mNGS）， and the clinical pharmacists participated in the treatment process of the patient. During the treatment process， the clinical pharmacists suggested using piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium combined with metronidazole for anti-infective treatment against Fusobacterium necrophorum infection； clinical pharmacists recommend anticoagulant treatment with Enoxaparin sodium injection for left internal jugular vein thrombophlebitis. RESULTS The doctors accepted the suggestion of the clinical pharmacists， and the patient’s condition improved after treatment and was allowed to be discharged with medication. CONCLUSIONS By interpreting the results of mNGS， combined with the patient’s condition， the clinical pharmacists assist doctors in formulating individualized anti-infective and anticoagulant plans for the patient and provide medication monitoring， ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the patient’s medication.

Bronchiectasis has the characteristics of long course,gradual aggravation,easy recurrence and difficult to treat.The characteristics are similar to those arouse by incubative pathogenic factors.Based on the theory of incubative pathogenic factors,this disease is often related to the incubative pathogenic factors in the body's areas with deficient healthy qi,which occur at regular times.The etiology can be external,congenital,or internal.Treatment should focus on different characteristics of incubative pathogenic factors.Attention should be paid to clearing and dispersing in external pathogenic factors,while attention should be paid to supporting and promoting healthy qi in congenital pathogenic factors,and do not forget to remove internal pathogenic factors.

Objective:To establish the standard of nursing quality in bone oncology department, and provide the basis for scientific evaluation of nursing quality in bone oncology department.Methods:On the theoretical basis of Donabedian′s three-dimensional quality model of "structure-process-outcome", and through literature review and semi-structured interview method, the "evaluation index of nursing quality in bone oncology department" was preliminatively formulated from November 2022 to June 2023. The Delphi method was used to select 31 experts from 31 third-level A hospitals and nursing colleges in 27 provinces or municipalities across the country for two rounds of correspondence consultation. The criteria were screened and modified to determine the evaluation criteria of nursing quality in bone tumor specialty.Results:The questionnaire recovery rate of 2 rounds of expert consultation was 100.00%, the authority coefficient of 2 rounds of expert consultation was 0.93, and the coefficient of variation of 1, 2 and 3-grade standards were all less than or equal to 0.25. The Kendall′s coefficient of concordance of the primary standards of the two rounds of expert consultation were both 0.088, in the secondary standards were 0.103 and 0.140, in the tertiary standards were 0.119 and 0.110. Through 2 rounds of expert letter consultation, the evaluation criteria for the quality of care in bone tumor specialties were divided into three levels, including 3 primary standards (structural quality criteria, process quality criteria and outcome quality criteria), 21 secondary standards and 80 tertiary standards.Conclusions:The construction process of nursing quality standard in bone oncology department is scientific and reliable, reflecting specialty characteristics, and can provide scientific basis for the evaluation of nursing quality in bone oncology department and standardize nursing behavior.

Objective To investigate the value of liver/muscle ratio (LMR) on susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) and serum markers in the diagnosis of the severity of chronic hepatitis B liver fibrosis after grouping based on alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for 255 patients with chronic hepatitis B who attended Affiliated Hospital of Yan'an University from October 2018 to September 2021, and the patients were divided into severe liver fibrosis group (SLF group) and non-severe liver fibrosis group (non-SLF group). The SLF group was defined as liver stiffness measurement (LSM) > 9.0 kPa and ALT level within the normal range or LSM > 12.0 kPa and ALT level greater than 1-5 times of the upper limit of normal. LMR was calculated by measuring the mean SWI value of the liver (SWI liver ) and the signal intensity of the erector spinae. The t -test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two group; the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The binary logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors for SLF. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the diagnostic performance of LMR and its combination with serum markers, and the DeLong test was used to compare the difference in the area under the ROC curve (AUC). Results Compared with the non-SLF group, the SLF group had significantly higher ALT ( Z =-3.569, P < 0.001), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ( Z =-5.495, P < 0.001), hyaluronic acid (HA) ( Z =-6.746, P < 0.001), laminin (LN) ( Z =-5.459, P < 0.001), type Ⅳ collagen (Ⅳ-C)( Z =-8.470, P < 0.001), type Ⅲ procollagen (PCⅢ) ( Z =-6.326, P < 0.001), aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index ( Z =-9.004, P < 0.001), and FIB-4 ( Z =-8.357, P < 0.001) and significantly lower prothrombin time activity (PTA) ( t =10.088, P < 0.001), platelet count ( t =9.163, P < 0.001), SWI liver ( t =2.347, P =0.02), and LMR×10 ( Z =-4.447, P < 0.001). PTA, HA, Ⅳ-C, and LMR×10 were independent influencing factors for SLF. LMR×10 had an AUC of 0.675 (95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 0.614-0.732) in the diagnosis of SLF, which was significantly higher than that of SWI liver (AUC=0.594, 95% CI : 0.531-0.655) ( Z =3.984, P < 0.001). PTA+HA+Ⅳ-C+LMR×10 and PTA+HA+Ⅳ-C had an AUC of 0.937 (95% CI : 0.896-0.966) and 0.905 (95% CI : 0.858-0.941), respectively, suggesting that PTA+HA+Ⅳ-C+LMR×10 had a better diagnostic performance than PTA+HA+Ⅳ-C ( Z =2.228, P =0.026). Conclusion LMR and serum markers can accurately distinguish SLF after grouping based on ALT level. LMR is a quantitative and objective imaging indicator and is better than SWI liver , and it can also improve the diagnostic performance of serum markers for SLF in clinical practice.

Objective:To establish a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) humanized mouse model for hepatoblastoma in children. In addition, compare the biological consistency between successfully modeled PDX tumors and primary tumors in children while comparing and analyzing the influence of PDX model modeling success as a key factor.Methods:A PDX tumor model was constructed from fresh tumor tissue samples from 39 children with hepatoblastoma. The tumor growth time and volume size were recorded in detail. Simultaneously, 39 children’s data were collected for experimental and clinical analysis. The difference in tumorigenesis rate between different parameters was analyzed by χ2 test (categorical variable). Continuous variables with a normal distribution were compared using the t-test. Results:After cell passage and pathological diagnosis, 21 cases of hepatoblastoma PDX models were successfully constructed, with a success rate of 53.8% (21/39). Tumor samples from each generation of successfully modeled PDX models had pathology results that were consistent with those of the corresponding primary tumors. The analysis of the key factors affecting the tumor formation rate of PDX revealed that the metastasis rate was more successful in primary tumors than in liver in situ tumors (7/8 vs. 14/31, P = 0.049). However, there was no significant difference between tumor formation rates and pathological subtypes. According to the PDX tumor formation group comparison between the primary tumor and the metastatic tumor, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of tumor formation time and tumor volume. Hematoxylin-eosin staining in hepatoblastoma’s PDX mouse was consistent with the primary tumor. Immunohistochemistry positivity rates of four proteins, namely hepatocyte antigen (Hepatocyte), phosphatidylinositol glycan 3, β-catenin, and alpha-fetoprotein, in primary tumor tissues and PDX mouse models were 100% vs. 100%, 100% vs. 95.24%, 100% vs. 100%, and 95.24% vs. 85.71%, respectively. Conclusion:A PDX mouse model for hepatoblastoma has been successfully established in children. The tumor formation rate is high, with metastatic tumors having a higher tumor formation rate than primary tumors and transplanted tumors retaining the biological characteristics of primary tumors.

Objective:To investigate the effect of enteral nutrition on hematological complications in children with malignant solid tumors during chemotherapy.Methods:A total of 103 children with malignant solid tumor admitted to our hospital from March 2020 to December 2020 were enrolled in the study. The children were randomly divided into enteral nutrition group ( n=51) and control group ( n=52). Children in enteral nutrition group were given enteral nutrition support on the basis of routine diet, while children in control group were only given routine diet. The levels of leukocytes, neutrophils, hemoglobin and platelets in peripheral blood of children during chemotherapy were analyzed. The incidence of infection and the transfusion of red blood cells and platelets after chemotherapy were documented and compared between two groups. Results:The levels of white blood cells, neutrophils, hemoglobin and platelets before chemotherapy were significantly higher than those after chemotherapy both in enteral nutrition group ( Z=-5.91, -5.59, -5.54, -5.66, all P<0.05) and in control group ( Z=-6.14, -5.84, -5.75, -4.75, all P<0.05). The overall hemoglobin levels in enteral nutrition group before and after chemotherapy was significantly higher than those in control group ( t=5.68, 5.62, P<0.05), and there were no significant differences in the levels of white blood cells, neutrophils and platelets between the two groups before chemotherapy ( Z=-0.71, -0.12, -1.29, all P>0.05) and after chemotherapy ( Z=-0.39, -0.86, -0.94, all P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the degree of anemia during chemotherapy was significantly improved in enteral nutrition group (χ2=10.45,6.12, all P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the reduction degree of white blood cells, neutrophils and platelets between the two groups (before chemotherapy: χ2=1.17, 0.10, 0.49; after chemotherapy: χ2=0.18, 1.10, 0.97, all P>0.05). The number of children receiving red blood cell transfusion in enteral nutrition group was significantly lower than that in control group (χ2=14.06, P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the number of children with infection and platelet transfusion between the two groups (χ2=1.20, 0.29, all P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the duration of neutrophil deficiency between enteral nutrition group and control group ( t=-1.75, P>0.05). Conclusion:Enteral nutrition support can significantly improve the hemoglobin level in children during chemotherapy, effectively alleviate the severity of anemia, and reduce the incidence of red blood cell transfusion after chemotherapy, which has high clinical application value.

Objective:To establish a method of serum detection by Raman spectroscopy for the diagnosis of gastric cancer.Methods:Between April and November 2019, 110 patients with gastric cancer [73 males, 37 females, age (57.4±10.3) years] and 74 patients with colorectal cancer [48 males and 26 females, aged (58.3±12.2) years] were collected at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Military Medical University, along with 100 healthy subjects [59 males and 41 females, aged (55.6±10.61) years] during the same period. Fasting venous blood serum samples were collected from the subjects. A Raman spectrometer XploRA PLUS was used in this experiment, with an excitation light source of 532 nm, a field of view of 100 times, and a spectrum range of 200-2 000 cm -1, etc. The serum samples were detected by nondestructive and non-contact rapid detection, and the Raman spectra of serum samples were collected. Using the Raman spectrum acquisition and processing supporting software LabSpec6 to smooth, baseline, and normalize the obtained Raman spectrum. Multivariate statistical analysis software SIMCA14.1 were applied to import and analyze the obtained Raman spectrum data by principal component analysis (PCA), orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), and other methods for statistical analysis. An operating characteristic curve (ROC) was constructed to evaluate the model analysis effect between serum samples of healthy people and those with gastric cancer. Serum samples from the colorectal cancer group were used to verify the reliability of the model. Results:Six Raman peaks with good repeatability were detected in serum samples in health and gastric cancer group, and peaks were located at 1 001.17, 1 154.63, 1 337.89, 1 446.85, 1 515.33, and 1 658.34 cm -1, respectively. Raman intensities at six Raman peaks were significantly different between healthy and gastric cancer groups. At the displacement of 1 001.17, 1 154.63, and 1 515.33 cm -1, the Raman intensity in the healthy group was higher than that in the gastric cancer group. At 1 337.89, 1 446.85, and 1 658.34 cm -1 displacement, the Raman intensity of the gastric cancer group was higher than that of the healthy group. An OPLS-DA model was constructed to analyze the serum samples of the healthy group and the gastric cancer group. In the model, R 2 is the fitting power, and Q 2 is the predictive ability. The closer the values of R 2 and Q 2 are to 1, the better the performance of the model, and the obtained model's R 2X(cum)=0.809, R 2Y(cum)=0.819, Q 2(cum)=0.758. ROC characteristic curve was drawn based on the OPLS-DA model. The area under the curve (AUC) of the gastric cancer group was 0.998. Six peaks with good repeatability were detected in the serum Raman spectra of gastric cancer stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ, which were located at the displacement of 1 001.85, 1 155.07, 1 338.36, 1 445.75, 1 515.92, and 1 657.68 cm -1, respectively, and at the displacement of 1 155.07 and 1 515.92 cm -1. The Raman intensity of gastric cancer stage Ⅳwas significantly higher than that of gastric cancer stages Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ. Conclusions:According to the model reliability verification, the healthy group, gastric cancer group and colorectal cancer group can also be effectively separated based on OPLS-DA results; it showed a good performance in separating the healthy group from the gastric cancer group. It is possible to detect serum samples from healthy people and gastric cancer patients unlabeled by combining Raman spectroscopy and the OPLS-DA method in multivariate statistics.

Objective:To quantify the left ventricular myocardial work in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), and to evaluate the changes in left ventricular systolic function after TOF repair by pressure-strain loops (PSL).Methods:Seventy-six cases of children after TOF complete surgery in Shenzhen Children′s Hospital from September 2015 to September 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 41 cases in the ≤4-year group and 35 cases in the >4-year group. Seventy-six healthy children with matched body surface area in the same period were selected as the control group. All subjects underwent complete echocardiography and quantitative analysis of left ventricular myocardial work, including global longitudinal strain (GLS), global work index (GWI), global constructive work (GCW), global wasted work (GWW), and global work efficiency (GWE). Compared with the normal control group, the changes of left ventricular myocardial work after TOF repair were analyzed. For patients with complete echocardiographic data before and after surgery, the correlation between postoperative left ventricular myocardial work and preoperative degree of right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction was analyzed.Results:①In the ≤4-year group, compared with control subjects, GLS, GWI, GCW, GWE decreased, and GWW increased in patients with repaired TOF. All the differences were statistically significant [(-20.00±1.52)% vs (-21.59±1.73)%, (1 349.37±133.63)mmHg% vs (1 553.51±246.09)mmHg%, (1 589.39±167.85)mmHg% vs (1 749.12±249.45)mmHg%, 94.0%(94.0%, 95.0%) vs 96.0%(95.0%, 97.0%), (78.80±20.53)mmHg% vs (62.27±21.44)mmHg%; all P<0.05]. ②In >4-year group, compared with the control group, GLS, GWI, GWE decreased, and GWW increased in patients with repaired TOF. All the differences were statistically significant [(-19.89±1.66)% vs (-21.31±1.60)%, (1 486.09±172.42)mmHg% vs (1 713.14±227.05)mmHg%, 96.0%(94.0%, 96.0%) vs 97.0%(96.0%, 97.0%), 75.00(65.00, 95.00)mmHg% vs 55.00(42.00, 71.00)mmHg%; all P<0.05]. ③GWW was negatively correlated with preoperative RVOT diameter and RVOT-Z score( r=-0.422, -0.433; both P<0.05). GWE was positively associated with preoperative RVOT diameter and RVOT-Z score( r=0.441, 0.540; both P<0.05). ④GLS, GWI, GCW, GWW, GWE had good repeatability within and between observers.All the differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Left ventricular systolic function in patients with repaired TOF is lower than that in healthy children of the same age by echocardiography PSL, although traditional indicators are still within the normal range. Patients with more severe RVOT obstruction before surgery have worse left ventricular systolic function after operation. Quantification of left ventricular myocardial work by echocardiography PSL is helpful for long-term follow-up of children after TOF repair.

There were 335 affected eyes, of which 304 counts were in the intraocular stage (90.7%), most commonly in stage D (146 counts, 43.6%); 26 counts (7.7%) in the extraocular stage, mainly invading the optic nerve and/or optic nerve stump; 5 counts (1.5%) in the metastasis stage.(2) Survival analysis: the medical follow-up continued to March 31, 2020, with a median follow-up time of 67 months.There were 2 cases with a loss of follow-up, 21 relapsed cases, and 19 death cases, with the overall survival rate being 91.2%.According to Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, the expected 5-year survival rate was 91.1%; the survival rate was 96.2% in the intraocular stage and 73.1% in the extraocular stage.All 5 cases died during the distant metastasis stage, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=7.492, P<0.001); there was also a statistical difference in the survival rate between the monocular disease (95.9%) and binocular disease (87.3%) ( χ2=4.335, P=0.023). (3) Eyeball removal and eye protection: the eye protection rate of 217 children was 68.9%, 100.0% in stage A, B and C, 80.1% in stage D and 35.1% in stage E, which showed significant differences ( χ2=6.573, P=0.004). There were 35 children who underwent eye extraction before chemotherapy and 67 cases after chemotherapy, among which the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6.076, P=0.012) in eye removal rates before and after chemotherapy in stage D and E(6 and 11 cases before chemotherapy, 22 and 36 cases after chemotherapy). (4) Adverse reactions: according to the World Health Organization′s classification of adverse reactions to chemotherapy, there were 26 cases in grade 0 (12.0%), 98 cases in grade Ⅰ (45.1%), 59 cases in grade Ⅱ (27.2%), 23 cases in grade Ⅲ (10.6%), and 11 cases in grade Ⅳ (5.1%), mainly manifested as bone marrow suppression after chemotherapy (132 cases). No second tumors appeared, and only 4 cases had transient hearing abnormalities, which returned to the normal state in the subsequent review. Conclusions:Infantile RB has its own characteristics.Such factors as different eye types and different clinical stages can affect the prognosis of children.The survival rate of such children can be improved significantly and the rate of eyeball removal can be reduced after treatment.
