Objective To explore the relationship between pathogenic microorganism types,age and season in 2 188 children with respiratory tract infections.Methods A total of 2 188 children with respiratory tract in-fections admitted to the Department of Pediatrics,962 Hospital,Joint Logistic Support Force of PLA from June 2023 to May 2024 were selected as the study subjects.Targeted next generation sequencing(tNGS)tech-nology was used to detect 107 common pathogenic microorganism in children with respiratory tract infections,including Haemophilus influenzae,rhinovirus,Moraxella catarrhalis,Mycoplasma pneumoniae,Staphylococcus aureus,Streptococcus pneumoniae,human parainfluenza virus,human respiratory syncytial virus,etc.The re-spiratory tract infection situation and epidemiological characteristics of children in Harbin were analyzed.Re-sults Among 2 188 pediatric patients,98.5%(2 156/2 188)tested positive for pathogenic microorganism,with Haemophilus influenzae accounting for the highest proportion of 33.5%(732/2 188),followed by rhino-virus of 25.0%(547/2 188)and Moraxella catarrhalis of 24.8%(543/2 188).The positive rates of Hae-mophilus influenzae and human adenovirus in male children were higher than those in female children(P<0.05),while there were no statistically significant differences in the positive positive rates of other pathogenic microorganism between male and female children(P>0.05).Except for human adenovirus and influenza A virus,which showed no statistically significant differences in positive rates among different age groups(P>0.05),there were statistically significant differences in the positive rates of other pathogenic microorganism a-mong different age groups(P<0.05).The positive rates of pathogenic microorganism in preschool children were relatively high.There were no statistically significant differences in the positive rates of Streptococcus and Staphylococcus aureus in different seasons(P>0.05),while there were statistically significant differences in the positive rates of other pathogenic microorganism in different seasons(P<0.05).The positive rates of Haemophilus influenzae,Streptococcus pneumoniae,human metapneumovirus,human parainfluenza virus and SARS-Cov-2 were the highest in summer(P<0.05).Conclusion 2 188 children with respiratory tract infec-tions were mainly caused by pathogenic microorganism such as Haemophilus influenzae,rhinovirus,and Moraxella catarrhalis,etc.Preschool children is a susceptible group,and the prevalence of pathogenic microor-ganism varies seasonally.In clinical practice,relevant prevention and control measures should be developed based on this characteristic to reduce the incidence of diseases.

Objective To observe the efficacy of modified endoscopic sinus surgery(ESS)in treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps(CRSwNP)complicated by allergic rhinitis(AR).Methods Forty patients with CRSwNP and perennial AR who were scheduled for ESS were divided into study group and control group,with 20 cases in each group.The control group was treated with conventional ESS,while the study group underwent resection of a large part of the middle turbi-nate on the basis of ESS to enhance middle meatal drainage.The postoperative mucosal outcomes,complications,as well as the Visual Analog Scale(VAS),sino-nasal outcome test-20(SNOT-20),and nasal endoscopic Lund-Kennedy scores before surgery,at 3 months after surgery,and at 1 year af-ter surgery were compared between the two groups.Results In the control group,there were 3 cases of local adhesion between the displaced middle turbinate and the lateral nasal wall at 3 months after surgery,and 10 cases of middle turbinate edema at 1 year after surgery,including 4 cases with local polypoid changes in the middle turbinate and polypoid hyperplasia in the ethmoid sinus and frontal re-cess regions.No complications were observed in the study group,and the epithelialization of the surgical area was good.Moreover,the nasal congestion score,olfactory score,and Lund-Kennedy score at 1 year after surgery in the study group were lower than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Conclusion Modified ESS can significantly improve nasal con-gestion and olfactory symptoms in patients with CRSwNP complicated by perennial AR and effective-ly enhance their quality of life.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy of endovascular treatment for venous outflow tract obstruction after liver transplantation.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 7 patients with venous outflow tract obstruction after liver transplantation admitted to Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from November 2020 to December 2024. Among them, there were 5 males and 2 females, with the age of (22.3±8.1) years. The primary diseases included 2 cases of Budd-Chiari syndrome, 1 case of hepatic veno-occlusive disease, 1 case of portal veno-hepatic sinus vascular disease, 1 case of ornithine carbamoyltransferase deficiency, 1 case of primary biliary cirrhosis, and 1 case of autoimmune cirrhosis. Analyze the patient's clinical manifestations, obstruction of venous outflow tract, hemoglobin levels within one week before and one week after the operation, endovascular treatment conditions, and intraoperative complications such as abdominal hemorrhage and vascular injury. Ultrasound was used to measure the depth of ascites and pleural effusion. All patients were followed up immediately after the operation through phone calls or follow-up visits. The clinical symptoms, abdominal vascular ultrasound, enhanced CT and survival status of the patients were followed up.Results:All 7 patients were diagnosed with venous outflow tract obstruction by intraoperative angiography, including 1 cases of inferior vena cava obstruction, 2 cases of hepatic vein obstruction, and 4 cases of vena cava combined with hepatic vein obstruction. A total of 12 endovascular treatments were performed on 7 patients. Among them, 4 patients received balloon dilation and angioplasty once, 1 patient received balloon dilation and angioplasty twice, 1 patient underwent hepatic vein stent implantation after 2 hepatic vein balloon dilation and angioplasty, and 1 patient underwent intrahepatic portosystemic shunt via jugular vein after 2 hepatic vein balloon dilation and angioplasty. The abdominal distensionof the patients were all relieved after the operation, the ascites and pleural effusion decreased, and the edema symptoms of the lower extremities disappeared. There were no intraoperative complications. The preoperative hemoglobin of 7 patients was (113.4±34.0) g/L, and the postoperative hemoglobin was (126.6±34.8) g/L, which increased significantly compared with that before the operation, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-0.71, P=0.038). Seven patients were followed up for 6 to 24 months, with a median of 12 months. None of them had obvious symptoms including abdominal distension. Abdominal ultrasound and CT indicated that the blood flow of the transplanted liver was unobstructed, and no patient died. Conclusion:Venous outflow tract obstruction after liver transplantation can cause severe symptoms. Endovascular treatment is an effective treatment for venous outflow tract obstruction after liver transplantation.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors of tumor-specific mortality in patients with advanced endometrial carcinoma and construct a risk prediction model.Methods A total of 150 patients with advanced endometrial carcinoma admitted to the Fourth Clinical College of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University,Hangzhou First People's Hospital from January 2020 to January 2023 were selected as subjects.Cox regression was employed to analyze factors influencing mortality in advanced endometrial carcinoma.A Logistic regression model was constructed,with receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve used to evaluate model discrimination,calibration curve for precision assessment,and decision curve for net benefit evaluation.Results Overall 2-year survival rate of 150 patients was 58.67％.The univariate analysis demonstrated that histological grade,lymph node metastasis,tumor maximum diameter,and preoperative carcinoembryonic antigen 125(CA125)levels were all significant risk factors for mortality in advanced endometrial carcinoma(P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis confirmed these parameters as independent prognostic indicators(P＜0.05).A Logistic regression model established using multivariate Cox regression yielded a C index of 0.873(95％CI:0.792-0.951).ROC curve analysis revealed the model's area under the curve for predicting mortality risk factors in advanced endometrial carcinoma was 0.916(95％CI:0.872-0.960).Conclusion The linear chart prediction model constructed based on histological grading,lymph node metastasis,maximum tumor diameter and preoperative CA125 level in this study can effectively predict the death of advanced endometrial carcinoma.

Objective:To investigate the association between different socioeconomic status (SES) levels and the incidence of sensory impairment (SI) in the Chinese population.Methods:This study adopted a prospective cohort design, utilizing data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) collected in July or August 2011. Participants who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were followed up every 2-3 years until the onset of SI or the end of the follow-up period (August 2018). Based on educational attainment and annual per capita household expenditure, participants were classified into four SES groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high SES. Logistic regression was employed to analyze the relationship between different SES levels and the incidence of SI.Results:A total of 7 415 participants were included in the study, with a mean follow-up duration of 4.9 years. A total of 3 644 cases of incident SI were recorded (49.1%). Compared with the high SES group, the risk of developing SI was progressively higher in the upper-middle SES group ( OR=1.42, 95% CI: 1.03-1.96), lower-middle SES group ( OR=1.83, 95% CI: 1.29-2.60), and low SES group ( OR=2.04, 95% CI: 1.42-2.94) ( P for trend<0.001). Conclusions:SES is closely associated with new-onset SI. Enhancing SES may help reduce the risk of developing SI.

Objective:To investigate the relevant data on radiation dose in interventional radiodiagnosis and radiology of adults in Beijing and to provide a basis for establishing relevant diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) in this region.Methods:A total of 30 medical institutions in Beijing were surveyed, covering interventional radiodiagnosis and radiology surgeries for coronary artery, structural heart diseases, permanent cardiac pacemaker implantation, electrophysiological study and radiofrequency ablation, nervous systems, abdominal systems, and the blood vessels of the lower limbs. The primary parameters investigated included the air kerma area product ( PKA) and incident air kerma ( Ka, r). The 75 th percentiles of radiation dose were considered DRLs, which were analyzed at both the overall and individual medical institution levels. Results:A total of 3 331 cases of the abovementioned radiodiagnosis and radiology surgeries were collected. The DRLs (i.e., PKA and Ka, r) of various diagnostic examinations were 37.87 Gy·cm 2 and 509.00 mGy for coronary artery, 9.34 Gy·cm 2 and 48.00 mGy for electrophysiological study and radiofrequency ablation, 218.50 Gy·cm 2 and 901.70 mGy for nervous systems, 81.00 Gy·cm 2 and 302.20 mGy for the abdominal system, and 83.37 Gy·cm 2 and 214.69 mGy for the blood vessels of the lower limbs. In contrast, the DRLs (i.e., PKA and Ka, r) for interventional radiodiagnosis and radiology were determined at 135.00 Gy·cm 2 and 1 897.58 mGy for coronary artery, 26.91 Gy·cm 2 and 172.30 mGy for structural heart diseases, 27.77 Gy·cm 2 and 87.75 mGy for permanent cardiac pacemaker implantation, 34.46 Gy·cm 2 and 247.00 mGy for electrophysiological study and radiofrequency ablation, 214.36 Gy·cm 2 and 1 282.80 mGy for the nervous system, 196.64 Gy·cm 2 and 875.71 mGy for abdominal system, and 108.25 Gy·cm 2 and 523.25 mGy for the blood vessels of the lower limbs. Conclusions:The DRLs of radiation dose in interventional radiodiagnosis and radiology in Beijing were determined through a survey and statistic analysis. These findings suggest that for certain interventional procedures, the optimized radiation protection should be enhanced.

Objective To analyze the potential profiles of discharge readiness in patients after 125I seed implantation and the influencing factors of different profiles.Methods A total of 221 patients who underwent 125I seed implantation in the Interventional Therapy Department,Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from October 2023 to October 2024 were selected as the research objects by convenient sampling method.The general information questionnaire,discharge readiness scale and social support rating scale were used for investigation.Mplus8.3 software was used to conduct latent profile analysis on the discharge readiness of patients after 125I seed implantation,and multivariate Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of different discharge readiness profiles.Results The discharge readiness of patients after 125I seed implantation was divided into three potential profiles,"low discharge readiness-low self-care group"(10.41％),"medium discharge readiness-low others care group"(32.58％)and"high discharge readiness-high emotional support group"(57.01％).Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of short-term complications and the level of social support were the influencing factors of the potential profiles of discharge readiness in patients after 125I seed implantation(P＜0.05).Conclusion There is heterogeneity in the discharge readiness of patients after 125I seed implantation,and personalized intervention strategies should be formulated according to different profiles.

Objective To explore the effect of scalp combined with intradermal-needle acupuncture synchronized rehabilitation ther-apy on upper limb motor function in stroke patients.Methods From December,2022 to December,2023,144 stroke patients with upper limb motor dysfunction in the Affili-ated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were randomly divided into control,intra-dermal-needle,scalp-acupuncture and acupuncture groups(36 cases repectively).All groups received convention-al treatment and upper limb rehabilitation training,the intradermal-needle group added intradermal-needle thera-py,the scalp-acupuncture group added scalp-acupuncture therapy,and the acupuncture group added both scalp-and intradermal-needle therapies,for four weeks.They were assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Ex-tremities(FMA-UE),Wolf Motor Function Test(WMFT)and modified Barthel Index(MBI)before and after treatment.Twenty cases were selected randomly from each group,fractional anisotropy(FA)values and ratio of fractional anisotropy(rFA)of the lesion area and the posterior limb of the internal capsule were also measured with diffusion tensor imaging.Results Two cases dropped out in both the control group and the intradermal-needle group,while one case dropped out in both the scalp-acupuncture group and the acupuncture group.All groups showed significant improvement in FMA-UE,WMFT and MBI scores,as well as in the FA and rFA values of the lesion area and the posterior limb of the internal capsule(t>5.532,P<0.001)after treatment.The acupuncture group demonstrated the greatest pre-to post-treatment differences in FMA-UE scores,lesion-area FA and rFA values,and posterior-limb rFA val-ues compared with the other three groups(|Z|>3.256,P<0.05),and more WMFT and MBI improvements than those of the intradermal-needle group and the control group(|Z|>5.483,P<0.001).A significant interaction ef-fect was observed between intradermal and scalp acupuncture in improving FMA-UE scores(partial η2=0.035,P=0.029).The change in FMA-UE scores was positively correlated with the change in FA values of the posteri-or limb of the internal capsule(r>0.453,P<0.05)across four groups.Conclusion Scalp combined with intradermal-needle acupuncture synchronized rehabilitation therapy can more effec-tively improve upper-limb motor function in stroke patients,which may associate with the recovery of internal capsule.
