Objective:To analyze the epidemiological features of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in Beijing, and monitor the sequence variations in RSV glycoprotein (G) gene and clinical features of infected children.Methods:Respiratory tract specimens were collected from children with acute respiratory infection in the Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023. RSV-positive specimens screened by multiple nucleic acid testing were subjected to PCR to amplify the full-length RSV G gene. A phylogenetic tree was constructed after gene sequencing to analyze RSV subtypes and trace G gene variants. Clinical data were retrieved from the medical record system to analyze the clinical features of children with RSV infection in Beijing.Results:A total of 5 489 respiratory specimens were collected from 3 046 male patients and 2 443 female patients. The average age of the patients was 4.36 years. A total of 589 RSV-positive specimens (10.7%, 589/5 489) were detected with 349 from male patients and 240 from female patients. The average age of children with RSV infection was (2.51±2.78) years and the median age was 0.48 years. RSV had been circulating among children in Beijing since March 2023 with two epidemic peaks in May (24.6%, 122/496) and December (18.2%, 126/693). The predominant subtype of RSV in the first half of 2023 was subtype A, but it was replaced by subtype B from November 2023. Phylogenetic analysis revealed a novel G gene of RSV subtype B (RSV-B-BA9-954bp) with a length of 954 bp, which belonged to a new cluster in the phylogenetic tree. The percentage of patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) was higher in children with new variant of RSV subtype B infection than in those with common RSV subtype B infection [44.1% (15/34) vs 25.2% (31/123), χ 2=4.600, P=0.032], while the counts of white blood cells and the levels of C-reactive protein were lower in the children with new variant infection ( P<0.05). Conclusions:RSV has been prevalent among children in Beijing since March 2023 with two epidemic peaks. The predominant A subtype is gradually replaced by to B subtype. A new variant of RSV B G gene (RSV-B-BA9-954bp) is detected among the children.

Objective:To investigatethe heterogeneity of career growth recognition amongphysicians at the stage of standardized training and the growth characteristics of clinical physicians in the early stage, and to provide a reference for improving the quality of standardized training.Methods:The trainees who received standardized residency trainingwere randomly selected from three grade A tertiary hospitals in Chongqing, China. Mplus7.4 was used for latent profile analysis to explain the relationship between explicit continuous indicators, and the subtypes of career growth recognition were analyzed.Results:Career growth recognition at the stage of standardized training was classifiedinto three subtypes of all-round growth recognition, high resource and expectation recognition, and unclassified growth recognition, among which the subtype of unclassified growth recognition accounted for the highest percentage of 40.27% (207 trainees).Conclusions:Physicians at the stage of standardized training show obvious uncertainty aboutcareer growth recognition, and it is necessary to strengthen the education on career growth recognition during standardized training and design a development pathway based on the characteristics of career growth recognition.

Objective:To observe the effects of early energy intake and early enteral nutrition on prognosis of patients during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).Methods:Patients who received ECMO treatment in the emergency intensive care unit (EICU) of the Jiangsu Provincial Hospital (First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University) from January 2021 to June 2022 were selected as subjects to summarize the early energy intake of ECMO patients. Logistic regression analysis and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis were used to determine the relationship between early energy intake and prognosis of ECMO patients. According to the results of RCS analysis, the patients were divided into energy-deficient group and energy-sufficient group. And according to whether early enteral nutrition (EEN) was initiated, the patients were divided into EEN group and non-EEN group. The differences of clinical outcomes between energy-deficient group and energy-sufficient group, EEN group and non-EEN group were compared.Results:There was no significant difference in age, sex, BMI, primary disease and ECMO pattern between energy-deficient group and energy-sufficient group, EEN group and non-EEN group. The ECMO conversion time (days) and hospitalization time (days) in the energy-deficient group were significantly lower than those in the energy-sufficient group, and the survival rate in the energy-deficient group was significantly lower than that in the energy-sufficient group [43.2% (19/44) vs. 66.0% (31/47), P=0.029]. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the 28-day survival rate in the energy-deficient group was significantly lower than that in the energy-sufficient group, and the risk of death was 2.595 times higher than that in the energy-sufficient group. The conversion time (days), hospital stay (days) and average daily energy intake [kcal/(kg·d)] in the EEN group were higher than those in the non-EEN group ( P<0.05), and the survival rate in the non-EEN group was significantly higher than that in the non-EEN group [66.1% (41/62) vs. 31.0% (9/29), P<0.002]. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the 28-day survival rate in the non-EEN group was significantly lower than that in the EEN group, and the risk of death was 2.981 times higher than that in the EEN group ( P<0.001). Conclusions:The energy intake of patients with ECMO above 16.94 kcal/ (kg·d) is a protective factor for prognosis. EEN helps to increase early energy intake and improve prognosis in patients during ECMO.

Objective:To explore the pathogenic agents of acute respiratory infection (ARI) in children in Beijing.Methods:In the cross-sectional study, 3 groups of children from different departments were enrolled from Feb 6 th, 2023 (6 th week) to May 28 th (21 th week), 2023, including influenza-like case group from emergency department for nucleic acid testing of influenza virus (Flu) and human metapneumovirus (HMPV), the outpatient ARI group under nucleic acid testing for Flu, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), adenovirus (ADV), and parainfluenza virus (PIV), and the inpatient ARI group under nucleic acid testing for Flu, RSV, HMPV, ADV, human bocavirus (HBoV), Rhinovirus (Rh), PIV, coronavirus (HCoV), Mycoplasma pneumoniae (Mp) and Chlamydia pneumonia (Cp). Results:There were 320 influenza-like cases enrolled, including 192 males and 128 females, aged 4.7 (3.6, 6.9) years, and 117 cases (36.6%) positive for Flu A, which contained similar proportion of pandemic H1N1 (H1N1) 47.0% (55/117) and H3N2 53.0% (62/117), and 13 cases for HMPV 4.1% (13/320). The rate of Flu reached its peak at the 10 th week, with H1N1 as the predominant one from the 6 th to 9 th week (10.0%-50.0%) and then H3N2 from the 10 th to 16 th week (15.0%-90.0%). HMPV was detected from the 15 th week 5.0% (1/20), and then reached to 30.0% (6/20) at the 20 th week. In the outpatient ARI group, 7 573 were enrolled, including 4 131 males and 3 442 females, aged 4.0 (2.1, 5.3) years, and the highest positive rate for RSV 32.9% (2 491/7 573), followed by Flu A 12.1% (915/7 573). The dominant one was Flu A in weeks 6-14 (23.2%-74.7%), then RSV in the 15 th week 24.8% (36/145). In the inpatient ARI group, 1 391 patients were enrolled, including 804 males and 587 females, aged 3.3 (0.4, 5.8) years, and the highest positive rate for Rh 18.7% (260/1 391), followed by RSV 12.4% (173/1 391), Flu A 10.2% (142/1 391, of which 116 cases (81.7%) were H1N1, and 26 cases (18.3%) were H3N2) and HMPV 3.1% (43/1 391). H1N1 was detected from the 7 th week 10% (6/60), to peak in the 11 th week 31.8% (21/66). H3N2 was detected from the 8 th week 1.5% (1/68), and then kept in low level. The proportion of H1N1 among Flu was 81.7% (116/142) in the inpatient ARI group. RSV was detected from 12 th week 1.3% (1/80), reaching 30.4% (35/115) at 19 th week. The positive rate of HMPV reached 12.1% (14/116) at 21 th week. Conclusions:In the spring of 2023, the first one in Beijing is the Flu epidemic, with H1N1 being the predominant one in the early stage and H3N2 in the later stage. Then, there is a postponed RSV epidemic and an increased HMPV detection. In addition, nucleic acid testing for outpatient children should be strengthened to provide early warning of epidemics.

Objective:To sinicize the Family Collaboration Scale (FCS) and test its reliability and validity.Methods:The FCS was translated into Chinese based on the forward translation-back translation proposed by Brislin model to make cross-cultural adjustment. The Chinese version of FCS was developed by forward translation, back translation, overall, expert consultation and pre-survey. From April 2022 to April 2023, 236 caregivers of the elderly patients in five tertiary hospitals in Beijing were evaluated to analyze the reliability and validity of the scale.Results:Finally, among the 230 caregivers of elderly patients, 65 males and 165 females, aged 21-84 (54.07 ± 11.17) years old. The Chinese version of FCS contained 3 dimensions and 21 items. The content validity index of the items was 0.86-1.00, scale-level content validity index/universal agreement was 0.86, the Cronbach α coefficient of the scale was 0.908. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that all the model fitting indexes were at acceptable level. Conclusions:The Chinese version of FCS has good reliability and validity, and it can be used as a reliable measurement tool to measure the cooperative relationship between nurses and family caregivers of elderly patients.

Objective:To analyze the level and influencing factors of nurses′ proactive career behavior, problem-solving coping strategies and organizational identification, and to explore the relationship among them.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey. A total of 536 nurses from Cangzhou Central Hospital, Luanzhou People′s Hospital, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xingtai Medical College, People′s Hospital of Qiu County, Hebei Province in November 2023 were selected by convenience sampling method and investigated by general data questionnaire, Proactive Career Behavior Scale, Career Coping Strategies Scale and Organizational Identification Scale. The mediation effect was analyzed by AMOS 24.0 structural equation model.Results:Finally, 495 valid questionnaires were collected. There were 432 females and 63 males, 170 cases aged<31 years old, 256 cases aged 31-40 years old, and 69 cases aged>40 years old. The score of nurses′ proactive career behavior was (51.28 ± 9.86) points, problem-solving coping strategies was (16.25 ± 2.81) points, and organizational identification was (19.00 ± 4.84) points. The results of single factor analysis showed that nurses′ proactive career behavior was affected by age, title, department and salary satisfaction( F values were 2.20-24.44, all P<0.05), problem-solving coping strategies was affected by title, department and salary satisfaction ( F=5.72, 2.75, 21.30, all P<0.01), organizational identification was affected by salary satisfaction ( F=23.22, P<0.01). Problem-solving coping strategies, organizational identification were positively associated with proactive career behavior( r=0.786, 0.722, both P<0.01). Problem-solving coping strategies had a partial mediating effect between organizational identification and proactive career behavior( β=0.432, P<0.01), and the mediating effect accounted for 64.48% of the total effect. Conclusions:There is still room for improvement of nurses′ proactive career behavior, problem-solving strategies, and organizational identification. Nursing managers should pay attention to nurses′ job advantage of different age, title and department, and improve salary satisfaction to stimulate their work potential, and improve their organizational identification, guide them to adopt problem-solving strategies in coping with occupational stress, so as to promote the development of proactive career behavior.

Objective To explore the application value of simple manual rubber traction device in endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)of colorectal laterally spreading tumor(LST).Methods A retrospective cohort study was used to collect patients who underwent ESD for colorectal LST from June 1,2022 to June 9,2023.According to the use of the manual rubber traction device,patients were divided into colorectal traction ESD group(tESD group,n=22)and colorectal conventional ESD group(cESD group,n=44),the differences were compared between the two groups in the number of intraoperative hemostasis,the number of titanium clips used,the success rate of ESD,incidence of postoperative complications,hospital stay time,and treatment costs.Results The tESD group had relatively longer operation time and shorter hospitalization days than those of cESD group,but the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05);There were no statistically significant differences in the number of titanium clips used,postoperative complication rates,and hospitalization costs between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Colorectal traction ESD can be used as a remedial plan when traditional ESD is difficult to perform,and the use of traction does not increase the hospitalization cost of patients,and the postoperative complications of the two methods are similar.It is worthy of clinical application.
