Objective To investigate the occurrence risk for common complications of internal jugular vein(IJV)and subclavian vein(SCV)catheterization,and provide reference for the prevention and treatment of common com-plications during clinical intravenous infusion therapy.Methods Data from China National Knowledge Infrastruc-ture(CNKI),Wanfang Database,VIP Database,Embase(via OVID),PubMed,Cochrane Library,CINAHL,Web of Science,and ScienceDirect were retrieved,with the search period from database establishment to August 3,2023.Prospective cohort and experimental studies on common complications in patients with IJV and SCV cathete-rization were collected.Meta-analysis on the extracted data was performed with RevMan 5.3 software.Results A total of 29 studies involving 14 096 patients were included in the analysis,including 6 355 patients with SCV cathe-terization(SCV group)and 7 741 patients with IJV catheterization(IJV group).Meta-analysis results showed that the occurrence risk for hemopneumothorax(OR=0.23,95％CI[0.14-0.37])and catheter tip ectopic(OR=0.16,95％CI[0.03-0.85])in SCV group was higher than that in IJV group,and the occurrence risk for central venous catheter-related deep venous thrombosis in IJV group was higher than that in SCV group(OR=2.35,95％CI[1.31-4.21]),with statistically significant differences(all P＜0.01).There were no statistical differences in the occurrence risk of vascular catheter-related bloodstream infection(CRBSI),catheter blockage,and catheter local he-matoma between the two groups(all P＞0.05),there was difference in the combined result of subgroup analysis re-garding catheter bacterial colonization.Conclusion Compared with IJV,patients in SCV group have a higher risk of developing hemopneumothorax and catheter tip ectopic,while patients with catheterization in IJV group have a high-er risk of deep veinous thrombosis.There are no significant differences in the occurrence risk for CRBSI,catheter blockage,and catheter local hematoma between two groups of patients.It is suggested that patient's own conditions and the accessibility of deep vein catheterization should be considered more when selecting the site of deep venous catheterization.

Objective To analyze the research hotspots and trends of invasive fungal infections(IFIs)in China over the past 24 years,and provide references and suggestions for future research.Methods Literatures on IFIs re-search in China from 2000 to 2024 were retrieved from China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI)and Web of Science(WOS).CiteSpace software was employed to conduct collaboration network analysis on authors' institu-tions,and co-occurrence,clustering,and burst analyses were conducted on key words.Results A total of 2 479 li-teratures retrieved from CNKI and 1 149 from WOS were included in the analysis,involving 295 research institu-tions,with no core research team identified having a intermediary centrality＞0.1.Institutions with intermediary centrality＞0.1 included Chinese Academy of Sciences,Peking University,Fudan University,Sun Yat-sen Univer-sity and Zhejiang University.Key words with high centrality included"diagnosis""risk factor""voriconazole"and"Candida albicans".Clustering analysis grouped the co-occurrence network of key words into 6 clusters,mainly covering fungal diagnosis,treatment,and susceptible factors.Since 2020,focuses on the safety of antifungal treat-ment agents and primary prevention have emerged,with hot topics including pharmacokinetics,children,clinical features,and risk factors.Conclusion Currently,research teams are dispersed with insufficient interdisciplinary collaboration.Research topics are relatively simple.It is necessary to strengthen research on fungal resistance and healthcare-associated infection prevention and control.Risk factors and prevention measures for IFIs may be the fo-cus of future research.

Objective To develop and evaluate dietary and exercise intervention program for over-weight/obese patients with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods Seventy patients with over-weight/obese PCOS were prospectively selected as research subjects and divided into intervention group(n=35)and control group(n=35)according to random number table method.According to the completion of the intervention plan,29 cases were finally included in the intervention group and 28 cases in the control group.The control group was given conventional nursing intervention,while the intervention group was applied with the diet and exercise intervention program for overweight/obese patients with PCOS.Both groups were intervened for 3 months.The physical indicators,PCOS sign scores,natural pregnancy rate,degree of self-body image distress(Multidimensional Self-body Im-age Relationship Questionnaire-Appearance Subscale)and self-efficacy level(Self-efficacy Scale)before and after the intervention were compared between the two groups.The occurrence of adverse reactions during the intervention period between the two groups were compared.Results After 1 month and 3 months of intervention,the body mass index(BMI)and PC OS sign score of the pa-tients in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The natural conception rate of the intervention group was 34.48％(10/29),which was significantly higher than 10.71％(3/28)of the control group(P＜0.05).After 1 month and 3 months of inter-vention,the scores of the self-body image relationship-appearance subscale of the patients in the inter-vention group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.001).After 3 months of intervention,the score of the Self-efficacy Scale of patients in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.001).During the intervention period,no adverse reac-tions caused by diet and exercise intervention occurred in either group.Conclusion Implementing a diet and exercise intervention program for overweight/obese patients with PCOS is beneficial for re-ducing patients' BMI,increasing the natural pregnancy rate,improving self-body image disorders,and enhancing self-efficacy.

Objective:To identify the risk factors and to construct a predictive model for early postnatal mortality (with the first 7 days of life) in extremely preterm infants.Methods:This retrospective study involved 244 extremely preterm infants with a gestational age of 22 to 27 weeks and 6 days, born at the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from January 2017 to December 2022. They were divided into an early survival group ( n=140) and an early mortality group ( n=84), based on survival for ≥7 days after birth. LASSO and logistic regression were used to select risk factors for early mortality. A nomogram predictive model was constructed using the R software program. The goodness-of-fit tests, area under the curve (AUC), calibration curves, and decision curves were used to evaluate its performance and clinical usefulness. Results:LASSO regression and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that breech delivery ( OR=3.055, 95% CI: 1.125-8.296), intubation in the delivery room ( OR=4.320, 95% CI: 1.328-14.053), diagnosis of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ neonatal respiratory distress syndrome within 6 h after birth ( OR=11.552, 95% CI: 3.056-43.677), and use of adrenaline in the delivery room ( OR=10.706, 95% CI: 1.454-78.816) were risk factors for early mortality in extremely preterm infants. Conversely, large gestation age ( OR=0.234, 95% CI: 0.125-0.436), antenatal administration of corticosteroids to promote fetal lung maturity ( OR=0.046, 95% CI: 0.014-0.145), and the use of pulmonary surfactant within 6 h after birth ( OR=0.021, 95% CI: 0.004-0.122) were protective factors against mortality. The goodness of fit test of the early death risk nomogram prediction model for extremely preterm infants indicates a good fit ( P=0.702). The AUC of the model was 0.963 (95% CI: 0.943-0.983), with a sensitivity of 0.904 (95% CI: 0.806-0.949), specificity of 0.892 (95% CI: 0.829-0.938), and accuracy of 0.880. Decision curve analysis indicated that a threshold probability>2% would yield a net benefit. Conclusions:Breech delivery, intubation in the delivery room, use of adrenaline in the delivery room, and the diagnosis of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ neonatal respiratory distress syndrome within 6 h post-birth are independent risk factors for early mortality in extremely preterm infants. Large gestational age, antenatal administration of corticosteroids to promote fetal lung maturity and use of pulmonary surfactant within 6 h after birth are protective factors. The constructed prediction model based on the aforementioned factors can quantitatively, conveniently, and intuitively assess the risk of early mortality in extremely preterm infants.

Objective:To observe any clinical effect of supplementing ultrasound stimulation with balloon-guided injection of botulinum toxin into the upper esophageal sphincter in the treatment of cricopharyngeal achalasia.Methods:Forty patients with cricopharyngeal achalasia were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, each of 20. Both groups were given routine swallowing rehabilitation training, while the observation group additionally had botulinum toxin injected into the upper esophageal sphincter guided by ultrasound and with the aid of balloon dilation. Before the experiment and after 2 weeks, both groups were evaluated videofluoroscopically and flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing was performed. Moreover, 2 weeks before the treatment and 2, 4 and 24 weeks afterward, everyone′s eating, leakage and aspiration, and oral and pharyngeal secretions were assessed using the functional oral intake scale (FOIS), the penetration-aspiration scale (PAS), the fiberoptic endoscopic dysphagia severity scale (FEDSS) and the Murray secretion scale (MSS).Results:After 2 weeks the average PAS, FEDSS and MSS scores of both groups had improved significantly, but the observation group′s averages[3(2, 5), 3(2, 5) and 2(1, 2)] were significantly better than those of the control group. 2, 4 and 24 weeks after the experiment the average FOIS scores of both groups also showed significant improvement, with the observation group′s average[3(2, 4), 4(2, 6) and 6(3, 7)] again significantly better than that of the control group.Conclusions:A botulinum toxin injection into the upper esophageal sphincter can effectively improve the swallowing of persons with cricopharyngeal achalasia with adequate safety and significant long-term benefits. Therefore, such treatment is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective:The aim of this study is to establish the reference interval of refined immune cell subsets by multi-parameter flow cytometry.Methods:In this cross sectional study, a total of 326 healthy participants were included and divided into two groups based on age: 18-40 years old group and 41-60 years old group. Peripheral venous blood was collected in a fasting status. Flow cytometry tests were performed according to previous consensus article. The analysis of reference interval was conducted according to the documents of Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) EP28-A3c and Health Industry Standards of the People′s Republic of China WS/T 402-2024.Results:The T,B,NK,DC and monocyte refined immune cell subsets applicable to the reference range of the general population mainly include: CD3 +(56.4%-83.3%),CD4 +TEMRRA (0.2%-11.6%), CD4 +TEM (14.9%-52.8%), CD4 +CD28 +(76.3%-99.9%), CD19 +CD5 +(9.7%-45.8%), CD19 +CD27 -(45.7%-90.0%), CD19 +CD27 +(9.8%-54.0%), CD3 +CD16 +CD56 +(1.3%-20.2%), CD3 -CD19 -CD20 -CD14 -CD56 -HLA-DR +(0.4%-2.0%), Monocyte Mo1 subset CD14 +CD16 -(46.3%-94.6%), monocyte Mo2 subset CD14 +CD16 +(2.8%-49.7%), etc. When the Z-value between different age groups was higher than Z* (3.50 cut-off value), the reference intervals of these subsets should be established independently according to age. Conclusions:In this study, the reference intervals of refined subsets of immune cells by multi-parameter flow cytometry has been preliminarily established. For those subgroups that meet the grouping criteria, age should be fully considered in clinical applications and laboratory validation.

Objective:To develop a perinatal depression screening scale for Chinese urban version and test its reliability and validity.Methods:Naturally conceived women who were≥12 weeks of gestation and had regular prenatal examinations or delivered within four weeks in Xi'an and Foshan were recruited using convenience sampling. Initial entries were created through clinical interviews and expert validation of 50 of these pregnancies. Further item screening and testing for reliability and validity using correlation analysis, critical ratio method, homogeneity test, and factor analysis were performed. The final questionnaire was formed and then used to test the subjects. Fifty women who had completed the questionnaire effectively were selected for retesting 10 to 15 days after the initial evaluation. A structural equation model was constructed using the Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) as the reference criterion to conduct the scale's exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. The receiver operating characters curve was used to determine the cut-off point of the scale.Results:(1) 1 300 questionnaires were issued, and 1 049 valid questionnaires were received with a recovery rate of 80.7%. Among them, 601 were used for exploratory and correlation analysis, and 448 were used for confirmatory factor analysis. (2) The initial entries of the scale totaled 63. After eliminating indicators that did not meet the requirements for item analysis, the final scale consisted of 22 entries in total. The final scale consisted of six dimensions, including "abnormal mood", "loss of interest and pleasure," "sleep disorder," "self-blame and guilt," "decline in conscious thought ability," and "lack of energy". (3) The correlation coefficients between the above six dimensions and EPDS were 0.609, 0.322, 0.423, 0.522, 0.545, and 0.516, respectively. The one between the total scale and EPDS was 0.715 (all P<0.01). (4) The confirmatory factor analysis of each model and the scale showed an acceptable fit and a stable factor structure with indices Chi-square/degrees of freedom =2.504, square root of approximation error=0.058, standardized root mean square residual=0.048, comparative fit index=0.925, Tueker-Lewis index=0.911. After retaining 22 items, the Cronbach's coefficients of the six dimensions ranged from 0.708 to 0.870. (5) The test-retest reliability of the total scale, six dimensions, and 22 items were 0.936, 0.786-0.846, and 0.720-0.886, respectively. (6) The receiver operating characteristic curve of the scale was drawn with EPDS≥13 as the cut-off value, and the area under the curve (AUC) of EPDS was 0.808 (95% CI: 0.744-0.872). When the original cut-off point was 21, the Youden index was the max (0.561), with sensitivity and specificity of 0.952 and 0.609, respectively. The Kappa value was 0.691, indicating that the scale was consistent with EPDS. Conclusion:This study preliminarily established a Chinese urban version of the perinatal depression screening scale with a stable factor structure and good reliability and validity.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of paeoniflorin on glucose metabolism， inflammation and oxidative stress in rats with gestational diabetes mellitus （GDM） and its potential mechanism based on nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 （Nrf2）/ heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate：quinone oxidoreductase 1 （NQO1） signaling pathway. METHODS The female rats fed with high fat and high sugar diet and the male rats fed with an ordinary diet were caged， the successfully conceived rats were collected， and streptozotocin was injected intraperitoneally once to induce the GDM model. The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into the model group， metformin hydrochloride group （200 mg/kg metformin by gavage）， paeoniflorin low-， high-dose groups （45， 90 mg/kg paeoniflorin by gavage， respectively）， paeoniflorin+ML385 group （90 mg/kg paeoniflorin by gavage and intraperitoneal injection of 30 mg/kg Nrf2 inhibitor ML385）， with 12 rats in each group； in addition， another 12 conceived rats fed with an ordinary diet were selected as the control group. The rats in each drug group were given the corresponding drug/normal saline， once a day， for 2 consecutive weeks. Glucose metabolism indexes [fasting blood glucose （FBG）， fasting insulin （FINS）， insulin resistance index （HOMA-IR）]， serum inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 （IL-6）， tumor necrosis factor- α （TNF- α）] and renal tissue oxidative stress indexes [superoxide dismutase （SOD）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px）] were detected； the pathological changes of renal tissue were observed， and the protein expressions of Nrf2， HO-1 and NQO1 in renal tissue were detected. RESULTS Compared with the control group， the renal tissue lesions of the model group were obvious， including glomerular atrophy， edema degeneration of renal tubular epithelial cells and a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration； the levels of FBG and FINS， HOMA-IR， the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in serum， and the level of MDA in renal tissue were significantly increased （P＜0.05）， while the levels of SOD and GSH-Px and the protein expressions of Nrf2， HO-1 and NQO1 in renal tissue were significantly decreased （P＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， the renal tissue lesions of rats in paeoniflorin low-dose and high-dose groups were reduced， the above quantitative indexes were significantly improved， and the improvement effect was better in high-dose group （P＜0.05）， while ML385 could significantly reverse the improvement effect of paeoniflorin on the above indexes （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Paeoniflorin can improve the abnormal glucose metabolism， inflammation and oxidative stress damage of renal tissue in GDM rats， which may be related to the activation of Nrf2/HO-1/NOQ1 signaling pathway.
