Objective To observe the value of angle of progression(AOP)measured with transperineal ultrasound in the second stage of labor for predicting delivery mode using meta-analysis.Methods Articles published in Chinese or English focused on the prediction of delivery mode using AOP measured with ultrasound during the second stage of labor were searched in databases from January 1,2018 to August 31,2023.The literature were screened by 2 researchers according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,and information were extracted to assess the value of AOP measured in the second stage of labor with transperineal ultrasound for predicting delivery mode.The quality of the included literature were evaluated using Quality Evaluation Tool for Diagnostic Tests-2(QUADAS-2).Results Eleven studies including 2 315 parturient women were enrolled.Meta-analysis showed that the combined sensitivity(Sen),combined specificity(Spe),combined positive likelihood ratio(+LR),combined negative likelihood ratio(-LR),and combined diagnostic ratio(DOR)of AOP measured with transperineal ultrasound in the second stage of labor for predicting delivery mode was 0.80[95％CI(0.76,0.83)],0.83[95％CI(0.78,0.88)],4.8[95％CI(3.5,6.6)],0.24[95％CI(0.20,0.29)]and 20[95％CI(13,30)],respectively,while area under the summary receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.88.Conclusion AOP measured with transperineal ultrasound in the second stage of labor had fine efficiency for predicting delivery mode,which could be regarded as a useful predictor for probability of natural delivery.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,with the development of biological scaffold materials and bioprinting technology,tissue-engineered bone has become a research hotspot in bone defect repair. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the current treatment methods for bone defects,summarize the biomaterials and bioprinting technology for preparing tissue-engineered bone scaffolds,and explore the application of biomaterials and printing technology in tissue engineering and the current challenges. METHODS:Search terms were"bone defect,tissue engineering,biomaterials,3D printing technology,4D printing technology,bioprinting,biological scaffold,bone repair"in Chinese and English.Relevant documents published from January 1,2009 to December 1,2022 were retrieved on CNKI,PubMed and Web of Science databases.After being screened by the first author,high-quality references were added.A total of 93 articles were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The main treatment methods for bone defects include bone transplantation,membrane-guided regeneration,gene therapy,bone tissue engineering,etc.The best treatment method is still uncertain.Bone tissue engineering technology is a new technology for the treatment of bone defects.It has become the focus of current research by constructing three-dimensional structures that can promote the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts and enhance the ability of bone formation.Biological scaffold materials are diverse,with their characteristics,advantages and disadvantages.A single biological material cannot meet the demand for tissue-engineered bone for the scaffold.Usually,multiple materials are combined to complement each other,which is to meet the demand for mechanical properties while taking into account the biological properties of the scaffold.Bioprinting technology can adjust the pore of the scaffold,build a complex spatial structure,and is more conducive to cell adhesion,proliferation and differentiation.The emerging 4D printing technology introduces"time"as the fourth dimension to make the prepared scaffold dynamic.With the synchronous development of smart materials,4D printing technology provides the possibility of efficient repair of bone defects in the future.

Objective:To evaluate the knowledge of autism among child health care professionals in primary health care institutions.Methods:The study was a cross-sectional survey. An online questionnaire survey was conducted from February to March 2023 in primary health care institutions in Guangzhou to investigate the knowledge on autism among medical staff engaged in children′s health services and the influencing factors.Results:A total of 341 questionnaires were returned and 312 questionnaires were valid with a recovery rate of 91.5%. The age of 312 respondents was (35.9±7.9) years, of which 303 (97.1%) were female. One hundred and fifty-two (48.7%) child health care professionals in primary health care institutions had received specialist training in assessing the psychological and behavioral development of children, and only 139 (44.6%) reported that they were aware of the"five no"principle for early identification of autism. The questionnaire scores were 88.1% pass (275/312) and 53.2% excellent (166/312). The three questions with low accuracy were: autism can be cured with drugs, autism has a genetic basis and rehabilitation training has no effect, and the accuracy for these questions was 42.6% (133/312), 52.2% (163/312) and 70.2% (219/312), respectively. The passing of autism-related knowledge was positively associated with receiving relevant training ( OR=2.585, 95% CI:1.200-5.569), and the excellence was positively associated with the highest education ( OR=1.939, 95% CI:1.220-3.083) and receiving relevant training ( OR=2.016, 95% CI:1.247-3.260). Conclusions:There is a need for more professional training in autism knowledge among child health care professionals in primary health care institutions.

Objective: To investigate the willingness to accept preventive treatments and its related factors among college freshmen with latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI), so as to provide the evidence for preventive treatment intervention measures for students with LTBI. Methods: Cluster sampling method was used to select 368 LTBI freshmen from 8 colleges and universities in Changzhou in September 2023, who conducted a questionnaire survey on the willingness to receive preventive treatment. General demographic data were collected and relevant data were collected using tuberculosis knowledge scale, General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Adaptation, Partnership, Growth, Affection and Resolve (APGAR), and a self developed Stigma Scale. A binary Logistic regression model was constructed with the willingness to accept preventive treatment as the dependent variable to analyze the willingness to accept preventive treatment and the influencing factors. Results: A total of 253 LTBI college freshmen were willing to take preventive treatment, the acceptance rate was 68.75%. The rate of willingness to accept preventive treatment for LTBI was higher among students whose fathers had an education level of high school, compared to those whose fathers had an education level of junior high school or below ( OR =2.16, P <0.05). LTBI students whose per capita family income was >5 000-10 000 yuan and >10 000 yuan were more willing to accept LTBI preventive treatment than those whose per capita family income was <3 000 yuan ( OR =2.72, 4.46, P <0.05). LTBI students who engaged in physical exercise for more than 2 hours per week were more willing to accept than those who exercised less than 0.5 hours per week ( OR =1.91, P <0.05). LTBI students with high levels of tuberculosis knowledge and stigma were more likely to receive preventive treatment ( OR =1.18, 1.11, P < 0.05). LTBI students with high PHQ-9 ( OR =0.85) and GAD-7 ( OR =0.92) scores were more likely to refuse preventive treatment ( P <0.05). Conclusion The present study revealed a moderate level of willingness of LTBI students to preventive treatment in Changzhou City, and the acceptance is affected by family factors, healthy lifestyles, tuberculosis knowledge and psychological status.

Objective:To evaluate the hemodynamic changes and short-term (one year) outcomes after superficial temporal artery(STA)-middle cerebral artery (MCA) bypass by vascular ultrasonography.Methods:Operation group included a total of 41 hemispheres of 38 patients who underwent STA-MCA bypass for severe stenosis or occlusion of MCA or severe stenosis or occlusion of internal carotid artery(ICA), or Moyamoya disease at Xuanwu Hospital between August 2017 and June 2020. The following examinations were performed in all patients: cranial MRI, CT perfusion imaging, and cerebral angiography. All of the patients were retrospectively followed up for one year postsurgery. Normal group included a total of 40 hemispheres of 20 healthy people who had been examined by vascular ultrasonography of carotid artery and intracranial artery. Inner diameter, peak systolic velocity (PSV), end-diastolic velocity (EDV), mean velocity (MV), resistance index (RI), pulsatility index (PI) and flow of STA, PSV, EDV, MV, PI, RI of external carotid artery (ECA) and PSV, EDV, MV, PI, RI of MCA at 1 week, 6 months and 12 months after STA-MCA bypass of operation group were compared with normal group.Results:①Inner diameter, PSV, MV and flow of STA were increased significantly in operation group at 1 week, 6 and 12 months than normal group (all P<0.05). The flow of STA was decreased significantly from 1 week to 12 months after operation (all P<0.05), but Inner diameter, PSV and MV were only decreased gradually from 1 week to 12 months after operation (all P>0.05). ②STA/ECA PI and RI decreased significantly after operation compared with normal group (all P<0.01). Conclusions:Vascular ultrasonography is a non-invasive examination which can objectively evaluate the extracranial and intracranial hemodynamic changes after STA-MCA bypass, and provide reference effectiveness of the operation. The flow of STA has decreased gradually from 1 week to 12 months after operation to achieve the homeostasis, but it is still higher than normal.STA/ECA PI and RI can be a steady indirect pointer to show the fluency of bypass.

Objective: To investigate the association of both maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) with childhood overweight and adiposity in preschool children. Methods: A total of 4 303 preschool children aged 3-5 years were enrolled in our study during June and November 2016 in Guangzhou. Children defined as overweight and obesity were according to the criteria of WHO while weight status during maternal pre-pregnancy was using the China Adult Reference. Gestational weight gain was defined according to the Institute of Medicine guidelines. Results: After adjusting the possible confounding factors, results from the logistic regression analysis showed that both maternal pre-pregnancy overweight and obesity would increase the risk for both childhood overweight and obesity (OR=1.820, 95%CI: 1.368-2.422). The analysis of covariance results also showed that both maternal overweight and obesity before pregnancy and excessive maternal weight gain during pregnancy increased the BMI Z-score in children. Maternal GWG over the recommended level were associated with both the childhood overweight and obesity (OR=1.296, 95%CI: 1.007-1.667). Joint associations of pre-pregnancy BMI and inappropriate GWG were also noticed in the study. Stratified analysis was conducted in three groups according to the pre-pregnancy BMI of the mothers. Result showed that there was no statistical difference in the risks of either overweight or obesity in children (P>0.05). However, when compared to mothers with adequate pre-pregnancy higher BMI and adequate GWG, under the combination of high pre-pregnancy BMI and excessive GWG, their adverse effects on childhood overweight and obesity were much higher (OR=1.574, 95%CI: 1.029-2.409). Conclusions Both high pre-pregnancy BMI and inappropriate GWG were associated with greater BMI of their offspring. Pregnant women should follow the appropriate weight gain program and help their children to prevent from becoming obese.

To explore the relationship between paediatric early warning score (PEWS) and the occurrence of mechanical ventilation complications in children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
 Methods: A total of 110 children with ARDS diagnosed in First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University, who underwent mechanical ventilation, were selected. The baseline data, blood gas analysis index, laboratory test index, ventilator parameters, pediatric critical illness score (PCIS) and PEWS in the children were recorded. With reference to ventilatory treatment results, the children with ventilator-associated complications were included in the trial group (n=20), while the patients with good cohort status were included in the control group (n=40) according to the nested case-control study. Independent sample t-test and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the factors affecting the occurrence of complications after ventilatory treatment.
 Results: There were statistically significant differences in multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), partial pressure of oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), serum creatinine (SCr), albumin (ALB), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), mechanical ventilation time, mean article pressure (MAP), tidal volume (VT), positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), PCIS, PEWS between the control group and the experimental group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that MODS, PaO2/FiO2, PaCO2, VT, PEEP and PEWS had influence on complications after mechanical ventilation in children with ARDS (all P<0.05).
 Conclusion: The MODS, PaO2/FiO2, PaCO2, VT, PEEP, and PEWS exert effects on complications after mechanical ventilation in children with ARDS. PEWS combined with other indicators can assess the risk of complications in children with ARDS after mechanical ventilation.

Objective To discuss the influence hand hygiene intervention on general ICU acquired methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection and its improvement. Methods Hand Hygiene Cognition Questionnaire that passed the reliability and validity test was used to compare the change of cognition on hand hygiene of medical staff. According to the results of the questionnaire, the intervention was carried out by continuous intensive training. The compliance with hand hygiene of medical staff was observed by monitoring equipment in the ward. Implementation status and effect of hand hygiene of medical staff on duty were examined randomly each month. At the same time MRSA infection rate of patients in comprehensive ICU was monitored in the same period. The relationship between hand hygiene compliance and MRSA infection rate was analyzed. Results The score of medical staff of cognition of hand hygiene was (41.70±3.67) points before the intervention, while the score was (44.10±3.55) points after the intervention. The difference had statistical significance (t=24.37, P<0.01). The correct rate of hand washing, positive rate of bacterial culture in hand, hand hygiene compliance and infection rate of MRSA of patients in comprehensive ICU were 68.75%, 14.58%, 66.90%, 12.90% respectively before the intervention. The correct rate of hand washing, positive rate of bacterial culture in hand, hand hygiene compliance and infection rate of MRSA of patients in comprehensive ICU were 88.54%, 3.12%, 74.14%, 3.10% respectively after the intervention. The difference had statistical significance (χ2=7.809-24.520, P<0.01). Conclusions Questionnaires with high credibility reviews could better identify issues in hand hygiene compliance, and sustained, reinforcing intervention measures could improve the compliance of hand hygiene; Good hand hygiene practice of medical and nursing staff contributes to controlling MRSA infection rates in general ICU.
