Objective:To investigate the trajectory of frailty in elderly patients on maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)following SARS-CoV-2 infection and its associated risk factors.Methods:This prospective cohort study focused on elderly patients who underwent baseline frailty assessment(T0)during hemodialysis treatment at Beijing Friendship Hospital for over 3 months between December 1st, 2022, and December 31th, 2022, and were diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection.The Fried Frailty Phenotype was evaluated at 1 month(T1), 3 months(T2), and 6 months(T3)post-infection.Frailty trajectory after infection was analyzed using repeated measurement ANOVA.Patients were divided into stable/improvement or exacerbation groups based on their frailty status at T0 and T3, with logistic regression analysis employed to identify risk factors for different frailty trajectories.Results:A total of 130 elderly maintenance hemodialysis patients, with a median age of 66 years(range: 63-71 years)and 62 males(47.7%), were included in the study.Six months after the infection, a majority of surviving patients saw their frailty scores return to baseline levels.Specifically, 72 patients(55.4%)either maintained or improved to robust or pre-frail states, while 9 patients(6.9%)progressed to a pre-frail state, 18 patients(13.8%)progressed to a frail state, and 31 patients(23.8%)remained in a frail state.Results from multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that low grip strength( OR: 6.30, 95% CI: 1.48-26.73)and all-cause hospitalization( OR: 5.01, 95% CI: 1.19-21.03)were identified as risk factors for non-frail patients transitioning to frailty( P<0.05). Conclusions:The majority of elderly maintenance hemodialysis patients who survived SARS-CoV-2 infection returned to their baseline level of frailty or showed improvement within 6 months.Non-frail patients with low grip strength or those who were hospitalized were more likely to deteriorate towards frailty.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of combining Ki67, molecular subtyping, and ultrasonographic parameters in predicting axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer.Methods:200 breast cancer patients who were admitted to Meizhou People’s Hospital from Jan. 2020 to Dec. 2022 were collected. Based on the presence or absence of axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer, the patients were divided into an axillary lymph node metastasis group and a non-axillary lymph node metastasis group. Age, clinical stage, tumor location, tumor size, degree of differentiation, boundary, blood flow, echo, calcification, morphology, vascular invasion, Ki67, molecular typing, resistance index (RI) , shear wave velocity were collected. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the risk factors for axillary lymph node metastasis of breast cancer, and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the clinical value of ki67, molecular typing combined with ultrasound parameters in the diagnosis of axillary lymph node metastasis of breast cancer.Results:There were no statistically significant differences in age, clinical stage, tumor location, tumor size, differentiation degree, boundary, blood flow, echo or calcification between the axillary lymph node metastasis group and the non-axillary lymph node metastasis group ( t=0.80, χ20.13, χ2=0.14, χ2=0.90, χ2=0.64, χ2=1.03, χ2=0.04, χ2=0.34, χ2=1.2, P>0.05) , while there were statistically significant differences in morphology, vascular invasion, Ki67, molecular classification, RI and shear wave velocity between the two groups ( χ2=12.01, χ2=8.75, χ2=11.36, χ2=11.43, t=6.34, t=7.25, P<0.05) . Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that vascular invasion, Ki67 high expression, triple negative breast cancer, RI and shear wave velocity were all risk factors for axillary lymph node metastasis ( OR=5.572,4.026,3.632,107.639,1.936, P<0.05) . ROC curve analysis results showed that the AUC of Ki67, molecular typing, RI and shear wave velocity in the diagnosis of axillary lymph node metastasis of breast cancer was 0.620, 0.594, 0.744 and 0.792, respectively, and the AUC of Ki67, molecular typing, RI and shear wave velocity in the diagnosis of axillary lymph node metastasis of breast cancer was 0.846. The AUC of the combination of Ki67, molecular typing, RI and shear wave velocity in the diagnosis of axillary lymph node metastasis of breast cancer was higher than that of Ki67, molecular typing, RI and shear wave velocity alone ( Z=5.55,7.10,3.44,2.45, P<0.05) . Conclusions:High Ki67 expression, triple-negative breast cancer, lymphovascular invasion,RI, and shear wave velocity are all risk factors for axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer. The combined use of Ki67, molecular subtype, RI, and shear wave velocity can improve the diagnostic accuracy for axillary lymph node metastasis in breast cancer.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current status of monitoring indicators related to the"Perioperative In-fection Control"in medical institutions above the secondary level in Guizhou Province,and to delve into the imple-mentation of key measures for infection prevention and control during the perioperative period for patients under-going surgical operations.METHODS Based on the"Implementation Plan for the'Perioperative Infection Control'Initiative in Guizhou Province",a"Case Investigation Form on Key Measures for Infection Prevention and Control During the Perioperative Period for Patients Undergoing Surgical Operation"was developed.A total of 138 medi-cal institutions participated in the case investigation,and a total of 2 128 cases were investigated.RESULTS The overall monitoring indicators for the"Perioperative Infection Control"initiative in the 138 medical institutions a-bove the secondary level in Guizhou Province were at a relatively low level.The skin cleansing compliance rate was 80.32％,the hair removal compliance rate was 16.43％,the prophylactic antibacterial drug administration rate within 0.5-1 hour before surgery was 55.94％and the antibacterial drug discontinuation rate within 24 hours after prophylactic medication for type Ⅰ incision surgeries was 56.48％.The hair removal compliance rate was higher in tertiary medical institutions(19.21％)than in secondary medical institutions(14.34％)(P=0.039).The distri-bution of the four monitoring indicators varied in clinical departments and surgery types,with statistically signifi-cant differences(P＜0.05).The preferred method for surgical site skin cleansing in medical institutions across the province was local wiping,primarily with clean water(57.21％).The primary method for hair removal was razors(68.82％),and hair removal on the day of surgery was most common(61.75％).CONCLUSIONS Conduc-ting a survey on the current status of"Perioperative Infection Control"initiative monitoring indicators in medi-cal institutions in Guizhou Province helps to understand the implementation of key measures for perioperative in-fection prevention and control and set intervention targets,thus providing references for establishing a dynam-ic monitoring indicator change mechanism.

Objective:To evaluate the application of a two-stage sequential nutritional therapy combined with functional exercise in the preoperative prehabilitation of patients with high-output intestinal fistula(HIF).Methods:A total of 164 HIF patients scheduled for definitive fistula resection in the Department of General Surgery,Eastern Theater Command General Hospital from March 2023 to March 2025 were prospectively enrolled.They were randomly assigned to a control group or an intervention group at a 1:1 ratio,with 82 patients in each group.The control group received conventional nutritional support and basic functional exercise,while the intervention group underwent a two-stage sequential nutritional therapy combined with graded functional exercise.Nutritional indicators,inflammatory markers,functional status,and postoperative recovery were compared between the two groups at 28 days before surgery,1 day before surgery,and 1,3,and 7 days after surgery.Results:On the day before surgery,the nutritional indicators in the intervention group,including albumin[(36.8±4.1)g/L],prealbumin[(213.5±42.1)mg/L],and total protein[(69.3±6.1)g/L],were all significantly higher than those in the control group[albumin(33.1±3.9)g/L,prealbumin(163.2±37.6)mg/L,total protein(63.7±5.9)g/L],with P<0.001.The energy compliance rates on the 21st day before surgery and the day before surgery in the intervention group(85.2%,92.8%)were significantly higher than those in the control group(62.5%,72.4%),with P<0.001.The 6-minute walk distance(6MWD)in the intervention group on the day before surgery and on the 7th day after surgery[(385.1±55.2)m,(346.3±48.4)m]was significantly greater than that in the control group[(315.3±60.7)m,(298.3±51.1)m],with P<0.001.On the 1st day after surgery,the inflammatory markers in the intervention group[CRP(98.7±35.2)mg/L,IL-6(45.3±12.5)pg/mL,PCT(1.2±0.5)ng/mL]were all significantly lower than those in the control group[CRP(152.4±48.6)mg/L,IL-6(89.6±25.4)pg/mL,PCT(2.8±0.9)ng/mL],with P<0.001.Additionally,the time to first ambulation after surgery[(16.8±4.2)h],time to first flatus[(52.4±14.5)h],and ICU stay duration[(3.1±1.6)d]in the intervention group were all significantly shorter than those in the control group,with P<0.001 Conclusion:The two-stage sequential nutritional therapy combined with functional exercise significantly improves the attainment of nutritional targets,suppresses systemic inflammatory response,enhances muscle reserve and exercise tolerance,and effectively shortens the postoperative recovery period in HIF patients.These findings support the use of this combined approach as a targeted and feasible model for preoperative prehabilitation,demonstrating substantial clinical application value.

Objective To explore the relationship between levels of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),insulin-like growth factor 1(IGF-1),and transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1)in the synovial fluid of children with avascular necrosis of the femoral head(also known as Perthes disease)and the efficacy of postoperative revascularization,aiming to provide a basis for subsequent diagnosis and treatment.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 262 children with Perthes disease admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Gansu University of Chinese Medicine from January 2023 to June 2024.Based on postoperative revascularization efficacy,patients were divided into good revascularization group(n=228)and poor revascularization group(n=34).For poor revascularization group,a 1:2 matched case-control design was used to select 68 age-matched children with hip synovitis who underwent hip joint fluid puncture as control group.Additionally,82 children with Perthes disease treated at the hospital from June 2024 to January 2025 were enrolled as a validation cohort for nomogram model verification.The expression levels of VEGF,IGF-1 and TGF-β1 in the synovial fluid of three groups were compared.Confounding biases were controlled through univariate and stratified analyses.Binary logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent factors affecting the revascularization effect.R software was utilized to draw and verify the nomogram model for predicting the postoperative revascularization effect.Results The levels of VEGF,IGF-1 and TGF-β1 in the synovial fluid of children in poor revascularization group were all higher than those in control group and good revascularization group(P<0.05).After three types of reconstructive surgeries,the levels of VEGF,IGF-1 and TGF-β1 in the synovial fluid of children with poor revascularization were all higher than those in children with good revascularization(P<0.05);however,there was no statistically significant difference in the above indicators among different surgical types(P>0.05).Binary logistic regression analysis showed that the levels of VEGF,IGF-1,and TGF-β1 in the synovial fluid were independent risk factors for poor postoperative revascularization in children with Perthes disease.The area under the ROC curve of the nomogram model established accordingly for predicting poor postoperative revascularization in children with Perthes disease was 0.875(95%CI 0.805-0.945),with a sensitivity of 0.874 and a specificity of 0.851.Moreover,the calibration curve and decision curve analysis(DCA)indicated that the model had good clinical applicability.Conclusions The increased levels of VEGF,IGF-1 and TGF-β1 in synovial fluid are associated with poor postoperative revascularization in children with Perthes disease.These three factors are expected to become prognostic indicators for children with Perthes disease.

With the rapid development of the Internet,the problem of internet gaming disorder(IGD)among adolescents has gradually become prominent.IGD has caused serious harm to their physical and mental health,and it is difficult to withdraw and treat.In 2019,the World Health Organization(WHO)officially listed Gaming Disorder(GD)in the diagnostic category and included it in the 11th edition of the International Classification of Diseases.In China,the number of adolescent internet users has approached 200 million,and the number of IGD patients is relatively large.It is urgent to make breakthroughs in the cognition and treatment of IGD.Domestic and foreign studies have shown that IGD's physical and psychological harm to adolescents is related to the abnormal activation and functional connection damage of structures such as the prefrontal lobe,limbic system,and striatum,which in turn causes neurocognitive disorders,executive dysfunction,difficulty in emotional regulation,abnormal reward and punishment feedback,behavioral abnormalities and other functional disorders;therefore,this article aims to systematically review the research literature on IGD in recent years,and use neurophysiological imaging research method to sort out the changes in the brain structure and function of adolescents with IGD,in order to improve the understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease,and assist in further clinical diagnosis,treatment,application and research design.

Objective To establish a rapid,sensitive,and specific multiplex PCR detection method for the simultaneous detection of Cryptosporidium,Eimeria,and bovine parvovirus.Methods Specific primers targeting the SSU rRNA genes of Cryptosporidium and Eimeria,as well as the VP2 gene of bovine parvovirus were designed and the corresponding recombinant plasmid standards were constructed.To establish the multiplex PCR method,the reaction conditions were optimized using temperature gradient PCR and single-variable control methods.The sensitivity,specificity,reproducibility,and clinical application of the protocol were evaluated.Results The optimal annealing temperature was found to be 60.5℃,and the forward and reverse primer concentrations were determined to be 0.2 μmol/L for Eimeria,and 0.4 μmol/L for Cryptosporidium and bovine parvovirus.The assay demonstrated high sensitivity,with detection limits of 243,260,and 3 110 copies for the recombinant plasmid standards of Cryptosporidium,Eimeria,and bovine parvovirus,respectively.Specificity testing showed no cross-reactivity with ten common bovine pathogens,including Salmonella,bovine viral diarrhea virus,and bovine rotavirus.Consistent intra-and inter-batch results confirmed the strong reproducibility of the method.Clinical application to 81 diarrhea samples from various regions in the Ganzi Prefecture,Sichuan,revealed positivity rates of 18.52%(15/81)for Cryptosporidium,34.57%(28/81)for Eimeria,and 18.52%(15/81)forbovineparvovirus,withamixedinfectionrateof3.7%(3/81).Conclusions Themultiplex PCR method established in this study offers a reliable tool for differential diagnosis and epidemiological investigation of the three common diarrheal pathogens in yaks.
