Objective:To retrospectively analyze the clinical features and surgical efficacy of congenital cholesteatoma （CC） and acquired cholesteatoma （AC） in children. Methods:Clinical data of 169 children with middle ear cholesteatoma were reviewed in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2010 to July 2020. The clinical characteristics, stages, surgical methods, and postoperative recurrence rates were analyzed and summarized. Results:The age distribution of enrolled children ranged from 2 to 14 years. The mean age of the CC group was （5.60±2.48） years compared with （6.45±2.48） years in the AC group, and the difference was statistically significant （P<0.05）. Preoperative hearing in the CC group was （40.06±13.52） dB HL, which was better than in the AC group at （48.40±13.84） dB HL （P<0.05）. The proportion of stage Ⅰ in the CC group was lower than that in the AC group according to EAONO/JOS staging （P<0.05）. The recurrence rate after primary surgery was 19.23% （10/52） in the CC group compared with 36.29% （45/124） in the AC group （P<0.05）. The mastoid retention rates after all operations were 28.85% （15/52） in the CC group and 5.65% （7/124） in the AC group （P<0.05）. Conclusion:Compared with congenital cholesteatoma, acquired cholesteatoma in children is more aggressive and has more complications, higher postoperative recurrence rate, and less possibility of mastoid retention. Early clinical detection and treatment are required, and canal wall-down tympanoplasty should be considered in surgery.

Objective The aim of this study is to discuss the causal relationship between periodontal disease(PD)and prostate cancer(PCa).Methods A two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization(MR)analysis based on publicly statistical data from genome-wide association studies(GWAS)was conducted.MR Egger,weighted medium,simple mode and weighted mode were supplemented,while inverse variance weighted analysis(IVW)was the main method of analysis.Heterogeneity testing,pleiotropy testing and leave-one-out testing were used to assess the sensitivity and stabili-ty.Results The results of MR analysis showed that PD had no significant impact on the occurrence of PCa:East Asian(IVW,PD:OR=1.07,P=0.48);European(IVW,PD:OR=1.00,P=0.37,periodontitis:OR=1.03,P=0.14,chronic gingivitis:OR=0.99,P=0.37,chronic periodontitis:OR=1.03,P=0.22).The reverse MR analysis also did not show a causal relationship between PCa and PD:East Asian(IVW,PD:OR=0.97,P=0.22);European(IVW,PD:OR=0.84,P=0.44,periodontitis:OR=1.01,P=0.75,chronic gingivitis:OR=0.93,P=0.23,chronic periodontitis:OR=0.99,P=0.80).The results of other analysis were consistent with those of IVW analysis.Conclusions The results of our two-sample bidirectional MR analysis do not support a causal relationship between PD and PCa.

Right atrial diverticulum is a rare congenital cardiac malformation with a very low incidence and few reports in the literature. It is a sac-like structure originating from the free wall of the right atrium or the right auricle，and the wall of the diverticulum is mostly composed of normal myocardial tissue. Patients with diverticulumare asymptomatic in the early stage of the disease，and it is mostly detected by imaging examinations. The patient was a 96-year-old male admitted to the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University with intermittent chest tightness，shortness of breath，and dizziness for more than half a month. Echocardiography and contrast echocardiography were performed 1 d after the patient was admitted to the hospital，suggesting the diagnasis of right atrial diverticulum with thrombosis，and coronary CT angiography was performed 4 d after the patient was admitted to the hospital，which considered right atrial diverticulum，with an internal filling defect，and suspected thrombus formation. The patient was older and did not receive further diagnosis and treatment，and cardiac ultrasound was repeated 1 month later，with no significant change in the size and morphology of the mass within the right atrial diverticulum. By analyzing in detail a case with right atrial diverticulum initially misdiagnosed as pericardial effusion，this article aimed to raise cardiac sonographers' awareness of the diagnosis of right atrial diverticulum and to explore the key role of cardiac acoustic contrast technology in cardiac ultrasound diagnosis.

Objective To explore the predictive value of quantitative parameters of dual-layer detector spectral CT(DLCT)for Ki-67 expression in solid lung adenocarcinoma.Methods The data of 103 patients were retrospectively collected,and the patients were divided into Ki-67 high expression and Ki-67 low expression groups according to Ki-67 proliferation index.The quantitative parame-ters of DLCT were measured and calculated,and the differences in these parameters between the two groups were compared.The parameters with statistically significant differences were assessed for correlation with Ki-67 expression.The efficacy of DLCT param-eters and combined parameters in predicting Ki-67 expression in solid lung adenocarcinoma were evaluated by receiver operating character-istic(ROC)curve and compared by DeLong test.Results Long diameter,short diameter and smoking history were positively corre-lated with the Ki-67 expression in solid lung adenocarcinoma(r>0,P<0.05).Gender and quantitative parameters of DLCT were nega-tively correlated with the Ki-67 expression in solid lung adenocarcinoma(r<0,P<0.05).The combined parameters of convention and spectral CT had the highest prediction efficiency.Conclusion The quantitative parameters of DLCT can be used to evaluate the Ki-67 expres-sion in solid lung adenocarcinoma.

Objective:To investigate the value of quantitative parameters of dual-layer detector spectral CT (DLCT) in preoperative prediction of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in invasive lung adenocarcinoma.Methods:This study employed a cross-sectional design. The data of 91 patients with primary lung adenocarcinoma confirmed by postoperative pathology who underwent DLCT enhanced scanning in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from March 2022 to July 2024 were retrospectively collected. The patients were divided into LVI positive group and LVI negative group according to the postoperative pathology. Gender, age, smoking status, and lesion location were recorded,the clinical T-stage and N-stage were evaluated. Spectral base data images were generated based on the spectral reconstruction algorithm. Conventional CT features such as the size and density of the lesions were analyzed. The DLCT quantitative parameters such as 40 keV single-energy CT value (CT 40 keV), iodine density (ID), standardized iodine density (NID), and effective atomic number (Z eff) were measured. The differences of parameters between the two groups were compared using t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, or χ2 test. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent factors for predicting invasive lung adenocarcinoma LVI. The predictive performance of individual parameters and their combinations for LVI in invasive lung adenocarcinoma was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis and area under the curve (AUC) measurements. Results:There were significant differences in age, T stage, N stage, maximum diameter, focal density, and arteriovenous stage NID and Z eff between the LVI positive group and the LVI negative group ( P<0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=0.890, 95% CI 0.821-0.966), N stage( OR=12.721, 95% CI 2.676-60.473) and venous stage Z eff( OR=0.012,95% CI 0-0.668) were independent factors for predicting invasive lung adenocarcinoma LVI ( P<0.05). The combination of age, N stage, and venous-phase Z eff values demonstrated the highest predictive efficacy for LVI in invasive lung adenocarcinoma, with an AUC of 0.916. Conclusions:The quantitative parameters of DLCT are helpful for preoperative prediction of LVI status of invasive lung adenocarcinoma. The Z eff in the venous stage is an independent predictor, the combination of multiple parameters can further improve the diagnostic efficiency.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and prognostic factors of lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (LAHS).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 44 LAHS patients who diagnosed at the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from September 2016 to September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into B cell LAHS (B-LAHS) group (19 cases) and NK/T cell LAHS (NK/T-LAHS) group (19 cases) according to the lymphoma types, except for 4 cases of classic Hodgkin lymphomas and 2 cases of splenic lymphoma lymphomas. The clinical features and the factors influencing the prognosis of both groups were compared. According to whether lymphoma treatment were included in the initial treatment regimen, the patients were divided into the group with lymphoma treatment and the group without lymphoma treatment, and the objective response rate (ORR) of both groups was compared. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the overall survival (OS), the log-rank method was used for univariate analysis, and the Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariate analysis.Results:Among 44 LAHS patients, 26 cases were male and 18 cases were female, with the age of (69±7) years. Most of them were secondary to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and 17 out of 44 patients were secondary to DLBCL. All patients had fever, lymphadenopathy, and ferritinemia. The differences in red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), peripheral blood Epstein-Barr virus DNA (EBV DNA) load, positive rate of Epstein-Barr virus-encoded small RNA (EBER) in tissues, triglycerides (TG), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and fibrinogen between NK/T-LAHS patients and B-LAHS patients were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The ORR of 44 patients with LAHS was 52.3% (23/44); the median OS time of LAHS patients was 157 d, and that of NK/T-LAHS patients was 110 d; the median OS time of B-LAHS was 135 d; and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 7.47, P = 0.024). The median OS was not reached in patients receiving initial treatment regimen containing lymphoma, while the median OS time was 65 d in patients receiving treatment without containing lymphoma, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 3.97, P = 0.046). The results of multivariate Cox proportional hazards model showed that age ≥ 70 years ( HR = 2.502, 95% CI: 1.047-5.978, P = 0.039), serum ferritin (SF) ≥ 1 500 μg/L( HR=0.521,95% CI:0.282~0.960, P=0.037), soluble CD25 ≥ 7 800 U/ml ( HR = 0.536, 95% CI: 0.348-0.828, P = 0.005), interleukin (IL)-10≥100 ng/L ( HR = 0.532, 95% CI: 0.33-0.85, P = 0.009), interferon (IFN)-γ≥5.0 ng/ L ( HR = 0.554, 95% CI: 0.32-0.95, P = 0.033), Th (CD3 + CD4 + T cells)/ Ts (CD3 + CD8 + T cells) < 2 ( HR = 1.731, 95% CI: 1.005-2.982, P = 0.048), and hepatomegaly ( HR = 2.581, 95% CI: 1.059-6.289, P = 0.037) were independent factors influencing the poor outcome of LAHS patients. Conclusions:LAHS is mostly secondary to DLBCL. The early clinical manifestations lack specificity and the prognosis is generally poor, and the worst prognosis occurs in patient with NK/T-LAHS. The initial treatment with lymphoma can prolong OS time in patients with LAHS.

Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics and trends of postoperative pneumonia(POP)in tertiary general hospitals in Jiangsu Province,and provide theoretical basis for carrying out targeted pre-vention and control measures.Methods Surgery patients from 22 tertiary general hospitals in 12 cities in north,central,and south of Jiangsu Province from January 1,2022 to December 31,2023 were chosen as studied subjects,occurrence of POP was analyzed and compared.Results A total of 848 274 surgical procedures were performed in 22 hospitals,and 3 606 cases of POP occurred,with an incidence of 0.43％.The incidence in 2023 was 0.37％,which was lower than that in 2022(0.49％),with statistically significant difference(P＜0.001).The top three de-partments with high incidence of POP were neurosurgery(6.71％),cardiothoracic surgery(2.91％),and general surgery(0.77％).Among hospitals of different grades,the incidence of POP in tertiary first-class hospitals was 0.44％,which was higher than that in other tertiary hospitals(0.37％).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of POP between municipal and district/county hospitals(P＞0.05).The incidence of POP in hospitals with a bed:infection control full-time staff ratio＜200∶1 was lower than that in hospitals with the ratio ≥200∶1(0.39％vs 0.47％,P＜0.001),while the incidence of POP in hospitals with a proportion ≥30％of full-time staff being doctors was higher than that in hospitals with a proportion＜30％(0.45％vs 0.36％,P＜0.001).The incidence of POP in male patients was higher than that in female patients(0.62％vs 0.26％,P＜0.001).The incidence of POP in elderly patients aged≥65 was higher than that in patients aged＜65(0.73％vs 0.26％,P＜0.001).A total of 2 667 strains of infectious pathogens were detected,with the top three being Acine-tobacter baumannii,Klebsiella pneumoniae,and Pseudomonas aeruginosa,accounting for 28.95％,22.72％,and 15.45％,respectively.The detection rates of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB),carba-penem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP),and carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)were 60.75％,21.45％,and 32.28％,respectively.The detection rate of CRKP decreased in 2023 compared with 2022,with statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).Conclusion The overall incidence of POP in tertiary general hos-pitals in Jiangsu Province is relatively low,but there are significant differences among different hospitals.There-fore,perioperative prevention and control measures should be carried out based on the epidemiological characteristics of patients.
