A 71-year-old male presented with esophageal cancer and severe aortic valve regurgitation. Treatment strategies for such patients are controversial. Considering the risks of cardiopulmonary bypass and potential esophageal cancer metastasis, we successfully performed transcatheter aortic valve implantation and minimally invasive three-incision thoracolaparoscopy combined with radical resection of esophageal cancer (McKeown) simultaneously in the elderly patient who did not require neoadjuvant treatment. This dual minimally invasive procedure took 6 hours and the patient recovered smoothly without any surgical complications.

ObjectiveTo understand the infection characteristics and drug resistance of carbapenem-resistant Serratia marcescens (CRSM) in a general hospital in Shanghai, and to provide a theoretical basis for clinical anti-infective treatment and prevention of drug-resistant bacteria. MethodsClinical data on cases with CRSM infections detected in clinical specimens at a gradeⅢ level A general hospital in Shanghai from June 2022 to June 2024 were retrospectively collected, and their clinical distributions, factors of hospital-acquired infections, prognosis, and drug-resistant situation were analyzed simultaneously. ResultsA total of 38 cases with CRSM were detected from June 2022 to June 2024, and the number of CRSM strains accounted for 25.00% (38/152) of the number of SM strains. The 38 CRSM infection samples were all derived from sputum. CRSM were distributed in 9 clinical departments, and the top 3 departments having the highest percentages of CRSM among SM strains, were intensive care unit (ICU) (78.79%, 26/33), gastrointestinal surgery department (57.14%, 4/7), and thyroid hernia surgery department (50.00%, 1/2). Among the 38 patients with CRSM infections, 8 cases were identified as hospital-acquired infection, resulting in a hospital-acquired infection rate of 21.05. The mortality rate of the 38 cases of CRSM infected patients within 30 days after detection of CRSM was 23.68% (9/38). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score

Objective:
To investigate the detection of depressive symptoms and its influencing factors among middle school students in Huzhou City, so as to provide insights for improving the mental health levels among middle school students.
Methods:
From September to November 2024, a total of 4 729 middle school students from five counties (districts) in Huzhou City were selected through the stratified cluster random sampling method. Demographic information, lifestyle, and school bullying were collected through questionnaire surveys. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Factors affecting depressive symptoms among middle school students were analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 4 729 middle school students were surveyed, including 2 200 boys (46.52%) and 2 529 girls (53.48%). Depressive symptoms were detected in 1 026 students, with a detection rate of 21.70%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that girl (OR=1.960, 95%CI: 1.659-2.317), high school (ordinary high school, OR=1.789, 95%CI: 1.465-2.186; vocational high school, OR=1.581, 95%CI: 1.105-2.263), consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages >0 time/day (<1 time/day, OR=1.363, 95%CI: 1.009-1.841; ≥1 time/day, OR=1.568, 95%CI: 1.098-2.239), fried food intake ≥1 time/day (OR=1.890, 95%CI: 1.291-2.769), skipping breakfast daily (OR=2.178, 95%CI: 1.825-2.599), TV viewing time ≥2 hours/day (OR=1.457, 95%CI: 1.154-1.838), insufficient sleep duration (OR=1.761, 95%CI: 1.422-2.181), smoking (OR=2.798, 95%CI: 1.834-4.269), alcohol consumption (OR=2.282, 95%CI: 1.861-2.798), experiencing school bullying (OR=5.440, 95%CI: 3.148-9.402) and parental physical/verbal abuse (OR=3.954, 95%CI: 3.189-4.902) were associated with a higher risk of depressive symptoms among middle school students. Conversely, the middle school students who engaged in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity ≥3 times/week (OR=0.784, 95%CI: 0.668-0.921) and attended physical education classes ≥3 sessions/week (OR=0.736, 95%CI: 0.613-0.884) were associated with a lower risk of depressive symptoms.
Conclusion
The prevalence of depressive symptoms among middle school students in Huzhou City was lower than national average, and was influenced by dietary habits, physical exercise, sleep duration, smoking, alcohol consumption, and experiencing school bullying.

Background::Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has emerged as the leading cause of death from prostate cancer (PCa) in recent decades, bringing a great disease burden worldwide. Men with preexisting CVD have an increased risk for major adverse cardiovascular events when treated with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). The present study aimed to explore the prevalence and risk evaluation of CVD among people with newly diagnosed PCa in China.Methods::Clinical data of newly diagnosed PCa patients were retrospectively collected from 34 centers in China from 2010 to 2022 through convenience sampling. CVD was defined as myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, heart failure, stroke, ischemic heart disease, and others. CVD risk was estimated by calculating Framingham risk scores (FRS). Patients were accordingly divided into low-, medium-, and high-risk groups. χ2 or Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical variables. Results::A total of 4253 patients were enrolled in the present study. A total of 27.0% (1147/4253) of patients had comorbid PCa and CVD, and 7.2% (307/4253) had two or more CVDs. The enrolled population was distributed in six regions of China, and approximately 71.0% (3019/4253) of patients lived in urban areas. With imaging and pathological evaluation, most PCa patients were diagnosed at an advanced stage, with 20.5% (871/4253) locally progressing and 20.5% (871/4253) showing metastasis. Most of them initiated prostatectomy (46.6%, 1983/4253) or regimens involving ADT therapy (45.7%, 1944/4253) for prostate cancer. In the present PCa cohort, 43.1% (1832/4253) of patients had hypertension, and half of them had poorly controlled blood pressure. With FRS stratification, as expected, a higher risk of CVD was related to aging and metabolic disturbance. However, we also found that patients with treatment involving ADT presented an originally higher risk of CVD than those without ADT. This was in accordance with clinical practice, i.e., aged patients or patients at advanced oncological stages were inclined to accept systematic integrative therapy instead of surgery. Among patients who underwent medical castration, only 4.0% (45/1118) received gonadotropin releasing hormone antagonists, in stark contrast to the grim situation of CVD prevalence and risk.Conclusions::PCa patients in China are diagnosed at an advanced stage. A heavy CVD burden was present at the initiation of treatment. Patients who accepted ADT-related therapy showed an original higher risk of CVD, but the awareness of cardiovascular protection was far from sufficient.

Background and Aims:The repair of giant incisional hernia is challenging,as closing the significant defect in the abdominal wall can lead to life-threatening complications like abdominal compartment syndrome(ACS).Botulinum toxin type A(BTA)can temporarily relax the abdominal wall muscles,facilitating defect repair,while preoperative progressive pneumoperitoneum(PPP)can increase intra-abdominal volume,reducing intra-abdominal pressure caused by hernia content reintegration.Combining BTA with PPP for the preoperative preparation of giant incisional hernia repair may have a complementary effect.This study was conducted to evaluate the clinical value of combining BTA and PPP in the repair of giant abdominal incisional hernia. Methods:The clinical data of 213 patients with giant abdominal incisional hernia treated at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from December 2015 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Two weeks after receiving combined BTA and PPP treatment,changes in bilateral abdominal wall muscle,intra-abdominal adhesions,abdominal circumference,abdominal cavity volume,and hernia sac volume ratio were assessed using CT.Intraoperative details,incidence of complications,and postoperative follow-up outcomes were recorded. Results:Following combined BTA and PPP treatment,CT scan showed a significant extension of bilateral lateral abdominal wall muscles towards the midline in all 213 patients,with an average increase of 2.45(1.53-3.29)cm on the left side and 2.54(1.68-3.40)cm on the right side;muscle thickness was reduced by an average of 0.84(0.64-1.00)cm on the left and 0.82(0.62-1.05)cm on the right,the average distance between viscera and the abdominal wall increased to(7.52±1.78)cm,with a mean increase of 6.1(4.2-6.9)cm;the mean increase in abdominal cavity volume was 1 802(1 494.98-2 316.26)mL,and the hernia sac volume ratio decreased by an average of 9%(6%-12%),all changes were statistically significant(P<0.05).Post-PPP CT scan revealed no abdominal adhesions in 18 patients(8.45%),while 195 patients(91.55%)had varying degrees of adhesions,including 39 cases(18.31%)of sheet adhesions and 156 cases(73.24%)of mixed adhesions.Adhesions mainly consisted of omentum and intestinal tissues in 59.15%of cases.There were 43 cases(20.19%)of grade Ⅰ complications during the BTA-PPP process,including abdominal pain(28 cases),shoulder pain(9 cases),subcutaneous emphysema(6 cases),and dyspnea(3 cases).Dyspnea improved with oxygen therapy,while other complications required no special intervention.All 213 patients successfully underwent laparoscopic incisional hernia repair without conversion to open surgery or organ resection for volume reduction.Fascial closure was achieved in 209 cases(98.12%),with 4 cases(1.88%)having incomplete defect closure.The average time for adhesiolysis was 28(11.00-44.50)min,with a total operative time of 178.0(132.50-255.00)min and an average blood loss of 20(10-30)mL.The median intra-abdominal pressure(IAP)after operation was between 10 mmHg(9.00-12.00 mmHg),Among them,47 cases(22.07%)had IAP exceeding 12 mmHg,and after implementing proactive measures such as diuresis and diachoresis to reduce intra-abdominal contents,the IAP in these patients decreased to below 12 mmHg.No severe complications such as skin flap necrosis or ACS were observed.There were no deaths within postoperative 30 d,and during a follow-up period of 26(16.50-33.00)months,13 cases(6.10%)had surgical site events,including infections in 5 cases(2.35%),seromas in 7 cases(3.29%),and hematoma in 1 case(0.47%),with no hernia recurrence. Conclusion:The combination of BTA and PPP not only aids in identifying abdominal wall adhesion areas,improving preoperative surgical planning and enhancing surgical safety,but also significantly increases abdominal cavity volume and extends lateral abdominal wall muscles,facilitating the closure of giant incisional hernia defects and reducing the incidence of severe postoperative complications like ACS.This approach is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between basic psychological needs satisfaction, family resilience and psychological resilience with self-neglect in older adults on maintenance hemodialysis, and to analyze the mediating effect of family resilience and psychological resilience between basic psychological needs satisfaction and self-neglect.Methods:The social demographic questionnaire, basic psychological needs satisfaction scale, the Connor-Davidson resilience scale 10-item, family resilience questionnaire and scale of the elderly self-neglect were applied to 623 older adults on maintenance hemodialysis randomized sampled from 50 hemodialysis centers in Hunan Province from July to December 2021. The data were statistically described and mediated pathway analysis was performed using SPSS 28.0 and AMOS 24.0.Results:The scores of basic psychological needs satisfaction, psychological resilience, family resilience and elderly self-neglect in older adults on maintenance hemodialysis were (4.95±1.01), (23.24±8.19), (78.60±12.49) and (7.99±5.60), respectively.Correlation analysis showed that self-neglect was statistically negatively correlated with basic psychological needs satisfaction, psychological resilience and family resilience ( r=-0.398, -0.419, -0.451, all P<0.001), basic psychological needs satisfaction was positively correlated with resilience and family resilience ( r=0.594, 0.534, both P<0.001), and psychological resilience was positively correlated with family resilience ( r=0.477, P<0.001).Analysis psychological of mediation effects showed that basic psychological needs satisfaction had a total effect of -0.462 on self-neglect. The direct effect was -0.113, accounting for 25% of the total effect. The mediating effects of family resilience and psychological resilience were -0.189 and -0.122 respectively, accounted for 41% and 26% of the total effect. The chain mediating effect was -0.038, with an effect size of 8%. Conclusion:Basic psychological needs satisfaction for older adults on maintenance hemodialysis can affect self-neglect either directly or indirectly through family resilience and psychological resilience, and self-neglect can be reduced in the future by increasing family resilience and psychological resilience through meeting the basic psychological needs of older adults on maintenance hemodialysis.
