Objective To explore and analyse the signals of adverse events of esketamine,and to provide references for rational clinical use of the drug.Methods The adverse event reports of esketamine from the first quarter of 2019 to the fourth quarter of 2023 in the U.S.Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System(FAERS)database were collected.The reporting odds ratio(ROR)method and information component(IC)method in the disproportionality analysis and random forest(RF)algorithm,K-nearest neighbor algorithm and extreme gradient boosting(XGBoost)algorithm in machine learning algorithms were used for signal mining of target medicines respectively.The accuracy of machine learning signal detection results was assessed by the area under the curve(AUC).Results A total of 5 247 adverse event records with esketamine as the primary suspect drug were obtained.Using the traditional detection measures of dis-proportionality,138 positive signal results were detected,6 new adverse events including anticholinergic syndrome,urinary incontinence,double vision,pyelonephritis,spontaneous pneumothorax,biliary obstruction,were not included in the FDA drug inserts,and it was found that the drug may be more likely to cause cardiovascular problems.The results of the machine learning training showed that XGBoost algorithm and RF algorithm performed moderately well,with AUC means of 0.928 and 0.921,respectively.A total of 4 new potential adverse drug event signals,diplopia,deterioration of general physical health,suicidal ideation and withdrawal syndrome were detected by XGBoost algorithm and RF algorithm.Conclusion Esketamine is accompanied by some unknown risks while obtaining significant efficacy and adverse events not mentioned in the specification may occur in clinical practice.Healthcare professionals should be fully alert to the relevant adverse events when applying them in clinical treatment and take timely measures to ensure the safety of the treatment.

Aim To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of remimazolam tosylate for administering general anesthesia in morbidly obese patients.Methods This clinical trial was conducted at a single center from De-cember 2021 to October 2023.It assessed 108 morbid-ly obese patients(body mass index,BMI≥40)who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.Patients were randomly assigned to either the remimazaolam group(Group R)or the propofol group(Group P)for general anesthesia induction and maintenance.The primary outcome was to compare the incidence of ad-verse events and postoperative recovery characteristics between the two groups.Results During induction pe-riod,the incidence of adverse events was higher in group P,including hypotension(P＜0.01),hypox-emia(P＜0.05),bradycardia(P＜0.01),and in-creased vasopressor requirement(P＜0.05).The time to loss of consciousness and BIS falling to 60 was shor-ter in group P than in group R(P＜0.01).There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of postoperative quality of recovery(QoR-40 score),24-hour postoperative pain visual an-alogue scale(VAS)scores and morphine consump-tion.In conclusion,remimazolam tosylate,utilized for anesthesia induction in morbidly obese patients,signif-icantly reduced hypotension and hypoxemia compared to propofol,while it could also maintain similar postop-erative recovery quality.Conclusions Remimazolam is effective in reducing the incidence of hypotension and hypoxaemia during the induction period of general anaesthesia in morbidly obese patients and it is compa-rable to propofol in terms of quality of postoperative re-covery.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of postoperative delirium in elderly patients undergoing spine surgery.Methods The basic case data of 566 patients who underwent spine surgery under general anesthesia from January 2021 to Jan-uary 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 296 males and 270 females with an average age of(71.58±4.21)years old.There were 195 cases of cervical spine surgery,26 cases of thoracic spine surgery and 345 cases of lumbar spine surgery.According to the occurrence of postoperative delirium,the patients were divided into postoperative delirium group(41 patients)and non-delirium group(525 patients).Univariate analysis was used to analyze the possible influencing factors such as gen-der,age,weight,smoking history,drinking history,surgical site,preoperative anxiety,intraoperative hypotension times,blood loss and so on,and binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the univariate factors with P＜0.05.Results A total of 41 pa-tients developed postoperative delirium.Univariate analysis showed that age(P=0.000),duration of surgery(P=0.039),preop-erative anxiety(P=0.001),blood loss(P=0.000),history of opioid use(P=0.003),history of stroke(P=0.005),C-reactive protein(P=0.000),sodium ion(P=0.000)were significantly different between delirium group and non-delirium group.These factors were included in the binary Logistic regression analysis,and the results showed that age[OR=0.729,95％CI(0.569,0.932),P=0.012],opioid use[OR=21.500,95％CI(1.334,346.508),P=0.031],blood loss[OR=0.932,95％CI(0.875,0.993),P=0.029],C-reactive protein[OR=0.657,95％CI(0.485,0.890),P=0.007],preoperative anxiety[OR=23.143,95％CI(1.859,288.090),P=0.015],and sodium[OR=1.228,95％CI(1.032,1.461),P=0.020]were independent risk factors for the development of delirium after spinal surgery in elderly patients.Conclusion Age,opioid use,blood loss,preoper-ative anxiety,elevated c-reactive protein,and hyponatremia are independent risk factors for the development of postoperative delirium in elderly patients undergoing spinal surgery.

Objective:To observe the effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on the morphology, proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle, and immune response function of mouse retinal photoreceptor cells (661w cells).Methods:A cell experiment. Logarithmic growth phase 661w cells were cultured in vitro and transfected with angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) overexpressing lentivirus to construct ACE2 overexpressing 661w cells that could be infected with SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus (hereafter referred to as 'pseudovirus’). The 661w cells were divided into three groups: the normal group (untreated), the siACE2 group (overexpressing ACE2 and not infected with the pseudovirus) and the infected group (overexpressing ACE2 and infected with the pseudovirus), in which the infected group was 5 TU/ml pseudovirus group, 15 TU/ml pseudovirus group, 30 TU/ml pseudovirus group and 50 TU/ml pseudovirus group, and the cells were infected with the pseudovirus for 12, 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively. The infected group was infected with 5 TU/ml pseudovirus group, 15 TU/ml pseudovirus group, 30 TU/ml pseudovirus group and 50 TU/ml pseudovirus group, respectively, for 12, 24, 48 and 72 h. Fluorescence microscopy was used to observe the transfection efficiency of ACE2; protein immunoblotting (Western blot) was used to detect the relative expression level of ACE2 in the cells; light microscope was used to observe the morphology of the cells in the normal and the infected groups; cell proliferation was detected by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK8) assay; flow cytometry was used to detect the cell cycle; Western blot and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were used to detect the relative expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), B lymphocytoma-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X-protein (Bax) proteins and mRNA in the cells of siACE2 group, infected group (30 TU/ml pseudovirus group); qPCR was used to detect the relative expression of nuclear factor ( NF)- κB1 and NF-κB2, as well as NF- kB enhancer ( P65) and precursor protein ( P100) in cells of the siACE2 group and the infected group (30 TU/ml pseudovirus group). One-way ANOVA was used for comparison between multiple groups; t-test was used for comparison between two groups. Results:Compared with the siACE2 group, the cells in the infected group showed different degrees of crumpling, and with the increase of the concentration and time of pseudovirus induction, the crumpling of the cells worsened, and the number of cells decreased. Compared with the normal group, the cells in the infected group showed a gradual decrease in cell viability with the prolongation of pseudovirus induction time, and the difference was no statistically significant ( F=0.840, 0.412, 1.498, 1.138; P>0.05), and the apoptotic index of the cells induced in the 30 and 50 TU/ml pseudovirus group was significantly elevated, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=2.523, 6.716, 3.477, 3.421; P<0.05). At 72 h of pseudovirus induction, compared with the siACE2 group, the G1 phase cells in the 30 TU/ml pseudovirus group were significantly increased, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.812, P<0.05); the relative expression of IL-6, TNF-α, Bax protein and mRNA in the cells was up-regulated ( t=7.601, 6.039, 3.088, 5.193, 6.427, 7.667; P<0.05), the relative expression of Bcl-2 protein and mRNA was down-regulated ( t=3.614, 6.777; P<0.05), and the relative expression of NF-κB1, NF-κB2, P65, and P100 mRNA was significantly up-regulated with statistically significant differences ( t=3.550, 3.074, 3.307, 4.218; P<0.05). Conclusion:SARS-CoV-2 infection may inhibit photoreceptor cell proliferation, promote apoptosis and cycle blockade by activating the NF-κB signalling pathway.

Clinical data of 124 elderly patients with severe burns who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to the 12 hospitals from January 2015 to December 2020 were collected, including 4 patients from the Fourth People's Hospital of Dalian, 5 patients from Fujian Medical University Union Hospital, 22 patients from Guangzhou Red Cross Hospital of Jinan University, 5 patients from Heilongjiang Provincial Hospital, 27 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, 9 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, 10 patients from Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University, 9 patients from Tongren Hospital of Wuhan University & Wuhan Third Hospital, 12 patients from the 924 th Hospital of PLA, 6 patients from Zhangjiagang First People's Hospital, 4 patients from Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province, and 11 patients from Zhengzhou First People's Hospital. The patients' overall clinical characteristics, such as gender, age, body mass index, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, inhalation injury, causative factors, whether combined with underlying medical diseases, and admission time after injury were recorded. According to the survival outcome within 28 days after injury, the patients were divided into survival group (89 cases) and death group (35 cases). The following data of patients were compared between the two groups, including the basic data and injuries (the same as the overall clinical characteristics ahead); the coagulation indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time, D-dimer, fibrinogen degradation product (FDP), international normalized ratio (INR), and fibrinogen; the blood routine indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as white blood cell count, platelet count, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, monocyte count, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and hematocrit; the organ function indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as direct bilirubin, total bilirubin, urea, serum creatinine, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, total protein, albumin, globulin, blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, alkaline phosphatase, creatine kinase, electrolyte indexes (potassium, sodium, chlorine, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus in blood), uric acid, myoglobin, and brain natriuretic peptide; the infection and blood gas indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, pH value, oxygenation index, base excess, and lactate; treatment such as whether conducted with mechanical ventilation, whether conducted with continuous renal replacement therapy, whether conducted with anticoagulation therapy, whether applied with vasoactive drugs, and fluid resuscitation. The analysis was conducted to screen the independent risk factors for the mortality within 28 days after injury in elderly patients with severe burns. Results:Among 124 patients, there were 82 males and 42 females, aged 60-97 years, with body mass index of 23.44 (21.09, 25.95) kg/m 2, total burn area of 54.00% (42.00%, 75.00%) total body surface area (TBSA), and full-thickness burn area of 25.00% (10.00%, 40.00%) TBSA. The patients were mainly combined with moderate to severe inhalation injury and caused by flame burns. There were 43 cases with underlying medical diseases. The majority of patients were admitted to the hospital within 8 hours after injury. There were statistically significant differences between patients in the 2 groups in terms of age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, and inhalation injury, and PT, APTT, D-dimer, FDP, INR, white blood cell count, platelet count, urea, serum creatinine, blood glucose, blood sodium, uric acid, myoglobin, and urine volume within the first 24 hours of injury (with Z values of 2.37, 5.49, 5.26, 5.97, 2.18, 1.95, 2.68, 2.68, 2.51, 2.82, 2.14, 3.40, 5.31, 3.41, 2.35, 3.81, 2.16, and -3.82, respectively, P<0.05); there were statistically significant differences between two groups of patients in whether conducted with mechanical ventilation and whether applied with vasoactive drugs (with χ2 values of 9.44 and 28.50, respectively, P<0.05). Age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, serum creatinine within the first 24 hours of injury, and APTT within the first 24 hours of injury were the independent risk factors for the mortality within 28 days after injury in elderly patients with severe burns (with odds ratios of 1.17, 1.10, 1.10, 1.09, and 1.27, 95% confidence intervals of 1.03-1.40, 1.04-1.21, 1.05-1.19, 1.05-1.17, and 1.07-1.69, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusions:The elderly patients with severe burns had the injuries mainly from flame burns, often accompanied by moderate to severe inhalation injury and enhanced inflammatory response, elevated blood glucose levels, activated fibrinolysis, and impaired organ function in the early stage, which are associated with their prognosis. Age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, and serum creatinine and APTT within the first 24 hours of injury are the independent risk factors for death within 28 days after injury in this population.

Acute skin failure (ASF) is an inevitable damage to the skin and subcutaneous tissue caused by hemodynamic instability and/or low perfusion. At present, there are some understandings and reports about adult ASF at home and abroad, but there are few reports about children's ASF. This article reviewed the definition, pathophysiological changes, risk factors, clinical manifestations, and management of children's ASF, and put forward suggestions in order to provide ideas for clinical diagnosis and treatment of children's ASF, and promote the further study of children's ASF.
