Objective:To investigate the main causes of failed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in children and the remedial treatment strategies.Methods:This retrospective cohort study analyzed the clinical data of 21 children who experienced failed ERCP at Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University between January 2021 and December 2024. Data was collected included demographic information, clinical diagnoses, and ERCP outcomes. The annually trend in the ERCP failure rate was analyzed. Patients were categorized by etiology into the following groups: chronic pancreatitis, post-surgical status, pancreatic trauma, pancreas divisum, non-neoplastic pancreatic lesions, and ulcerative colitis. The relationship between etiologies and ERCP failure was analyzed by Fisher exact test.Results:A total of 175 ERCP procedures were included, of which 21 procedures failed (12.0%). The failure rate decreased annually from 2021 to 2024: 18.2% (4/22), 13.2% (5/38), 11.4% (5/44), and 9.9% (7/71), respectively. The etiological distribution among the 21 failed cases was as follows: chronic pancreatitis 28.6% (6/21), pancreatic duct stenosis following pancreatic trauma 23.8% (5/21), post-surgical status 14.3% (3/21), pancreas divisum 9.5% (2/21), acute pancreatitis 9.5% (2/21), non-neoplastic pancreatic lesions 9.5% (2/21), and pancreatic duct stenosis associated with ulcerative colitis 4.8% (1/21). Remedial treatments included surgical intervention (2 cases), ultrasound-guided percutaneous drainage (3 cases), and repeat ERCP (2 cases). For post-surgical and pancreatic trauma patients, failure was primarily due to bile duct stenosis, pancreatic duct stenosis, or pancreaticobiliary duct disruption. Active surgical interventions such as cholangiojejunostomy and pancreaticojejunostomy, and ultrasound-guided drainage following ERCP failure led to significant clinical improvement.Conclusions:A stratified management approach guided by etiology is essential following failed ERCP in children. Early and active remedial treatment, particularly surgical interventions, is recommended for post-surgical and pancreatic trauma cases.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effectiveness of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and stent implantation in the treatment of pancreaticobiliary injuries in children.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of children diagnosed with pancreaticobiliary injury and undergoing ERCP and stent implantation at Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2021 to December 2022. Demographic information, clinical data, endoscopic treatment methods, postoperative complications and clinical prognosis of the children were collected. The etiology, location of pancreaticobiliary injury, occurrence of complications after endoscopic treatment, and the time for improvement and recovery after endoscopic treatment were analyzed. The patients were divided into five groups according to the etiologies of pancreaticobiliary duct injuries: post-surgical, pancreatic trauma, acute pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis, and systemic lupus erythematosus groups. They were also classified into four groups according to the sites of pancreaticobiliary duct injuries: common bile duct, pancreatic head, pancreatic body, and pancreatic tail groups. Multi-factor analysis of variance was used for comparing the time of improvement and recovery among different groups.Results:Among 22 patients, there were 8 males and 14 females, and the age was 7.5 (3.3,10.8) years. There were 19 cases of pancreatic or bile duct fistula, and 3 cases of pancreatic or bile duct stenosis. A total of 33 endoscopic procedures were performed on the 22 patients, out of which, 3 duct stenosis were failed to insert the stent because the catheter failed to pass through the stenosis site. The success rate was 91% (30/33). The pancreatic duct or bile duct stent was inserted, with the stent located at pancreatic or bile duct fistula. Postoperative complications included pancreatitis in 3 cases (9%, 3/33), hyperamylasemia in 5 cases (15%, 5/33), and postoperative infection in 4 cases (12%, 4/33). All patients were followed up for more than 1 year. Significant improvement was observed in external drainage and imaging monitoring among patients with successfully placed stents. There was no significant difference in the improvement time of ERCP in the treatment of pancreaticobile duct injury caused by different etiology ( F=0.65, P=0.637). However, there were significant differences in healing time ( F=6.46, P=0.004), among which the healing time of injuries caused by systemic lupus erythematosus was significantly different from that after surgery, trauma, acute pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the improvement and healing time among different injury sites (all P>0.05). Conclusions:ERCP and stent implantation can safely and effectively improve the clinical symptoms of children with pancreaticobiliary injury. Early intervention can improve long-term prognosis.

Objective To explore the application effect of multimodal somatosensory exercise based on artificial intelligence technology in home rehabilitation exercise for elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary dis-ease(COPD),so as to promote COPD patients to participate in home rehabilitation exercise.Methods Using the convenient sampling method,80 elderly patients with COPD admitted to the Department of Respiratory Medicine of a tertiary A hospital in Urumqi from November 2023 to February 2024 were selected as the research subjects.Ac-cording to the random number table method,they were divided into a control group and an experimental group,with 40 cases in each group.The control group adopted the traditional exercise training method,and the experimental group adopted the multi-modal somatosensory movement based on artificial intelligence technology for exercise in-tervention,with 5 times a week,and the intervention was implemented for 12 weeks.The pulmonary function index,modified Medical Research Council scale score,physical fitness level,Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease As-sessment Test scale score and exercise compliance of the 2 groups were compared before intervention and 12 weeks after intervention.Results 77 patients completed the study,with 39 in the experimental group and 38 in the control group.The forced vital capacity,forced expiratory volume in one second,forced expiratory volume in one second to forced vital capacity ratio,physical fitness level and exercise compliance of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group,while the modified British Medical Research Council scale score and Chron-ic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Assessment Test score were lower than those of the control group.The differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Somatosensory exercise based on artificial intelligence technology can improve the lung function of the patients with COPD,improve the exercise compliance and physical fitness in-dicators of elderly patients and improve the quality of life of the patients.

Objective:To analyze the etiology of chronic pancreatitis(CP) and evaluate the impact of different intervention methods on the prognosis.Methods:This is a retrospective analysis conducted on clinical data of pediatric patients with CP admitted to Beijing Children's Hospital between January 2010 and December 2023,including etiology,clinical manifestations,imaging data and treatments.Follow-up assessments included height,weight,complications occurrence,and long-term nutritional status evaluated by using Z scores.Results:A total of 98 patients with CP were included in the study,containing 51 males and 47 females,with an age range of 1.95 to 15.96 years (median 8.49 years).The etiological contained the gene mutation (39.8%,39/98) (involving PRSS1, SPINK1, CFTR),the anatomical abnormality (26/98,26.5%),idiopathic pancreatitis (33.7%,33/98).Predominant clinical manifestations included abdominal pain (79/98,79.6%),nausea/vomit(48/98,49.0%),chest tightness/chest pain (10/98,10.2%),with malnutrition (44/98,44.9%) and the serum amylase increased in some patients.Imaging findings revealed heterogeneous pancreatic echoes,dilated pancreatic ducts and pancreatic stones via abdominal ultrasound,and a full or atrophic pancreas with irregular margins,tortuous or dilated pancreatic ducts through abdominal magnetic resonance imaging.Compared with CP caused by other reasons,hereditdry CP had a higher rate of pancreatic morphological changes(100.0% vs.88.1%, P<0.05).By March 2024,follow-up showed all 98 patients underwent initial medical treatment,followed by surgical intervention in 13 cases,endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography intervention in 51 cases,and no surgical or endoscopic intervention in 34 cases.Six children developed diabetes,six had reduced fecal pancreatic elastase-1 but without fat diarrhea.Long-term follow-up indicated improved nutritional status among children who underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography intervention(Z score,-1.22 vs.0.74, P<0.001). Conclusion:Gene mutations and anatomical abnormalities is the main etiological factors in pediatric patients with CP.Early endoscopic intervention can significantly improve the long-term prognosis of the children.

Objective:To investigate the value of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)and related techniques in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic pancreatitis in children.Methods:The clinical data of 16 children with chronic pancreatitis diagnosed in the Department of Gastroenterology at Beijing Children′s Hospital from January 2021 to January 2022, who had ERCP indications were analyzed retrospectively, including age, sex, operation time, postoperative complications and follow-up data.Results:Thirty nine ERCP operations were performed in 16 children, with the age of (7.20±2.51) years old, and the minimum weight of 13 kg.There were 7 males and 9 females.The clinical manifestations were upper abdominal pain in all cases, 3 patients with dyspnea, 1 patient with gastrointestinal bleeding, and 1 patient with diabetes.In terms of etiology, 16 cases were diagnosed by ERCP including, 7 cases with pancreatic divisum, 1 case with abnormal pancreaticobile duct confluence.Among the 16 children, 11 had gene examination with 9 gene mutations (including 7 cases SPINK1 mutation, 1 case PRSS mutation, and 1 case CFTR mutation).The operation time was 30 to 65 minutes, and the median was 43 minutes.The operation time was negative correlation with age, while there was no correlation with the anatomical structure abnormality or the gene mutation.Among the 16 children, 15 were placed with pancreatic duct stents, with a success rate of 93.8%.Three children had postoperative pancreatitis, the rest had hyperamylasemia.Postoperative complications were not related with the age, the anatomical structure abnormality or the gene mutation.All children had been followed up for more than one year.All children have not suffered from pancreatitis again, and the body mass index had increased significantly after operation than before( P<0.05).The ERCP operation was performed 2 to 4 times in children after stent replacement, and the time of stent replacement ranged from 3 months to 12 months. Conclusion:The main causes of chronic pancreatitis in children are anatomical abnormalities or gene mutations.ERCP and related techniques are minimally invasive, safe and effective in the treatment of chronic pancreatitis.

Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of vitamin D receptor (VDR) and human β-defensin-2(HBD2) in children with Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection and gastritis.Methods:Eighty-one children who were hospitalized in the Department of Gastroenterology at Beijing Children′s Hospital from January 2021 to June 2023 and underwent endoscopic examination were collected.They were divided into Hp infection group and non-Hp infection group according to whether they were infected with Hp.The expression levels of VDR and HBD2 between two groups, and the correlation between VDR, HBD2 expression levels and gastritis were compared and analyzed.Results:Among 81 cases, 48 cases were Hp positive, including 24 males and 24 females, with an average age of (11.4±2.7) years; 33 cases were Hp negative, including 14 males and 19 females, with an average age of (11.3±2.6) years.There were no significant differences in sex and age between two groups ( P>0.05). The positive rates of VDR and HBD2 expression in gastric mucosa of children with Hp infection were higher than those of children without Hp infection, and the differences were statistically significant (87.5% vs.39.4%, 79.2% vs.63.6%, all P<0.05). The expressions of VDR and HBD2 had no correlation with age and sex ( P>0.05). The expressions of VDR and HBD2 were positively correlated with granular degeneration of gastric mucosa ( r=0.384, P<0.001; r=0.258, P=0.020). The expression of VDR was positively correlated with the degree of gastric inflammation ( r=0.365, P=0.001), while the expression of HBD2 was not correlated with the degree of gastric inflammation ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The expression levels of VDR and HBD2 in gastric mucosa of children infected with Hp are increased.The expression level of VDR is correlated with the degree of gastritis and the granular degeneration of gastric mucosa.The expression level of HBD2 is correlated with the granular degeneration of gastric mucosa.But there is no correlation between the level of HBD2 expression and the degree of gastritis.

Objective:To assess the value of double-balloon enteroscopy(DBE)in the treatment of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome(PJS)polyp with intussusception in children.Methods:A total of 14 cases with PJS polyp with intussusception were collected in Gastroenterology Department of Beijing Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from July 2019 to January 2023.The general information, clinical manifestations, history of surgeries, abdominal ultrasound, enteroscopy and postoperative outcomes were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Fourteen cases with intussusception of PJS(including nine boys and five girls) were enrolled, and the average age was(10.25±2.52)years.There were 21 small intestinal intussusceptions in 14 cases, including eight cases of single intussusception and six cases of multiple intussusceptions.All the patients underwent DBE examination and treatment.A total of 215 small intestinal polyps were removed, no direct complications such as bleeding or perforation were found during the operation.Twelve cases were confirmed intussusception relieved by DBE, and the average maximum diameter of polyps causing intussusception was(4.38±1.43)cm.In addition, DBE did not reach the site of intussusception polyp in one case, and another case developed intestinal obstruction after DBE operation, which were treated by surgery.Conclusion:DBE provides a relatively effective method for the treatment of PJS polyps with intussusception without complete ileus in children.
