Objective: To explore the association between meat consumption and anxiety symptoms in first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province, and to provide theoretical support for preventing and relieving anxiety symptoms in junior high school students. Methods: From October to December 2022, a random cluster sampling method was used to select 8 500 first year junior high school students from 11 counties in Yunnan Province as the survey subjects for a questionnaire survey. The study used Food Frequency Questionnaire and the Chinese version of the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) to assess the meat consumption and anxiety symptoms of junior high school students.The distribution differences in anxiety symptoms among first year junior high school students with different demographic characteristics were analyzed statistically by using the Chi-square test,and the association between meat consumption and anxiety symptoms in students was analyzed by using a generalized linear model. Results: The detection rate of anxiety symptoms was 48.47%. After controlling for demographic variables and confounding factors, the consumption of livestock meat, poultry meat, processed meat, cured meat, barbecued meat and raw skin meat was statistically significant with anxiety symptoms ( β =-0.05, 0.04, 0.04, 0.08, 0.14, 0.17, all P <0.05). Stratified by ethnicity, The consumption of livestock meat, cured meat and barbecue was statistically correlated with anxiety symptoms in Han adolescents ( β =-0.07, 0.14, 0.22 ); the consumption of processed meat and raw skin meat was statistically correlated with anxiety symptoms in ethnic minority adolescents ( β =0.08, 0.18) (all P <0.05). Conclusions There is a statistical association between meat comsumption and the risk of anxiety symptoms in first year junior high school students in Yunnan Province. Guidance on meat consumption should be strengthened to prevent the occurrence of anxiety symptoms.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the treatment status of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in China.Methods:Data of chronic phase (CP) and accelerated phase (AP) CML patients diagnosed from January 2006 to December 2022 from 77 centers, ≥18 years old, and receiving initial imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib-therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China with complete data were retrospectively interrogated. The choice of initial TKI, current TKI medications, treatment switch and reasons, treatment responses and outcomes as well as the variables associated with them were analyzed.Results:6 893 patients in CP ( n=6 453, 93.6%) or AP ( n=440, 6.4%) receiving initial imatinib ( n=4 906, 71.2%), nilotinib ( n=1 157, 16.8%), dasatinib ( n=298, 4.3%) or flumatinib ( n=532, 7.2%) -therapy. With the median follow-up of 43 ( IQR 22-75) months, 1 581 (22.9%) patients switched TKI due to resistance ( n=1 055, 15.3%), intolerance ( n=248, 3.6%), pursuit of better efficacy ( n=168, 2.4%), economic or other reasons ( n=110, 1.6%). The frequency of switching TKI in AP patients was significantly-higher than that in CP patients (44.1% vs 21.5%, P<0.001), and more AP patients switched TKI due to resistance than CP patients (75.3% vs 66.1%, P=0.011). Multi-variable analyses showed that male, lower HGB concentration and ELTS intermediate/high-risk cohort were associated with lower cytogenetic and molecular responses rate and poor outcomes in CP patients; higher WBC count and initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher response rates; Ph + ACA at diagnosis, poor PFS. However, Sokal intermediate/high-risk cohort was only significantly-associated with lower CCyR and MMR rates and the poor PFS. Lower HGB concentration and larger spleen size were significantly-associated with the lower cytogenetic and molecular response rates in AP patients; initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher treatment response rates; lower PLT count, higher blasts and Ph + ACA, poorer TFS; Ph + ACA, poorer OS. Conclusion:At present, the vast majority of newly-diagnosed CML-CP or AP patients could benefit from TKI treatment in the long term with the good treatment responses and survival outcomes.

Purpose: The risk stratification of pediatric anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) has not been standardized. In this study, new risk factors were included to establish a new risk stratification system for ALCL, and its feasibility in clinical practice was explored. Materials and Methods: On the basis of the non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma Berlin–Frankfurt–Munster 95 (NHL-BFM-95) protocol, patients with minimal disseminated disease (MDD), high-risk tumor site (multiple bone, skin, liver, and lung involvement), and small cell/lymphohistiocytic (SC/LH) pathological subtype were enrolled in risk stratification. Patients were treated with a modified NHL-BFM-95 protocol combined with an anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitor or vinblastine (VBL). Results: A total of 136 patients were enrolled in this study. The median age was 8.8 years. The 3-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival of the entire cohort were 77.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 69.0% to 83.9%) and 92.3% (95% CI, 86.1% to 95.8%), respectively. The 3-year EFS rates of low-risk group (R1), intermediate-risk group (R2), and high-risk group (R3) patients were 100%, 89.5% (95% CI, 76.5% to 95.5%), and 67.9% (95% CI, 55.4% to 77.6%), respectively. The prognosis of patients with MDD (+), stage IV cancer, SC/LH lymphoma, and high-risk sites was poor, and the 3-year EFS rates were 45.3% (95% CI, 68.6% to 19.0%), 65.7% (95% CI, 47.6% to 78.9%), 55.7% (95% CI, 26.2% to 77.5%), and 70.7% (95% CI, 48.6% to 84.6%), respectively. At the end of follow-up, one of the five patients who received maintenance therapy with VBL relapsed, and seven patients receiving anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitor maintenance therapy did not experience relapse. Conclusion This study has confirmed the poor prognostic of MDD (+), high-risk site and SC/LH, but patients with SC/LH lymphoma and MDD (+) at diagnosis still need to receive better treatment (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03971305).

Objective:To investigate feasibility and clinical effect of free anterolateral thigh flap(ALTF) with reversed arterial flow in repair of foot and ankle wounds in children.Methods:From October 2014 to February 2021, the free ALTF with reversed arterial flow was used to repair the wounds in 7 children with severe soft tissue injury and main blood vessel injury in the Department of Hand & Foot Surgery of the Second Affiliated Hospital of University of South China. Of the 7 injured children, 5 were caused by traffic accident, 1 by mechanical strangulation and 1 by heavy object. The size of wounds ranged from 6.0 cm×8.0 cm to 9.0 cm×11.0 cm. ALTF were designed to be anastomosed with the blood vessels at the recipient sites by retrograde blood supply. The size of flaps ranged from 6.0 cm×8.0 cm to 10.0 cm×11.0 cm. All flap donor sites were pulled together and directly sutured. Follow-ups were conducted through outpatient clinic visits, telephone call and WeChat reviews in the 1st, 3rd, 6th, 12th and 24th months after surgery. The major contents in follow-up were the shape, colour, texture, sensation of flap and function of ankles.Results:All donor sites healed at I stage. A total of 5 flaps survived successfully; One flap had venous occlusion after surgery, and the flap survived after surgical exploration; One flap had partial necrosis after surgery, and repaired with artificial dermis after further debridement. Postoperative follow-up lasted for 6-24 months, with an average of 10.5 months. All flaps appeared in similar colour and texture to the surrounding soft tissues. Two children underwent flap repair after half a year due to bloated flaps. The Ankle-hind foot Function Score of American Orthopedic Foot Ankle Society(AOFAS) was used to evaluate the ankle function. AOFAS achieved 84-94 points, with 5 children in excellent and 2 in good. The sensation recovered to S 3+ in 5 children, S 3 in 1 child and S 2 in 1 child, according to the standard of British Medical Research Council (BMRC). Conclusion:For the children with severe soft tissue injury combined with main vascular injury in foot and ankle, free ALTF with reversed arterial flow can repair the defect and effectively secure the blood supply. It is a feasible method for wound repair.

Objective:To explore the advantages and value for clinical application of clavicle segment osteotomy approach with pectoralis major muscle pedicle in surgical resection of posterior brachial plexus tumour.Methods:From April 2010 to December 2020, 6 patients with brachial plexus tumour behind the clavicle were treated. Two patients had the tumour on the left brachial plexus and 4 on the right. Two patients had the tumours located in the upper trunk of brachial plexus, 2 in the middle trunk, 1 in the medial plexus and 1 in the posterior bundle. The neurological function evaluation were grade II in 3 cases and grade III in 1 case preoperatively. The tumours sized from 3.0 cm× 3.0 cm×2.0 cm to 11.0 cm×8.0 cm×6.0 cm. The clavicular segment osteotomy approach with the pedicle of the pectoralis major was applied in order to expose the surgical field and remove the nerve tumour. All patients underwent regular postoperative outpatient clinic follow-up to record the sensation of the affected limb and the recovery of muscle strength, tumour recurrence and fracture healing.Results:In the operation, it was found that there was still a little glial-like tissue in the nerve sheath after complete dissection of the tumours in 2 patients. Postoperative pathological examination reported that there were 4 schwannoma, 1 malignant peripheral schwannoma and 1 neurolipoma. The postoperative follow-up lasted for 6 to 34 months, with an average of 12.8 months. All patients showed no symptoms of brachial plexus injury or tumour recurrence. The clinical symptoms were relieved or disappeared. The neurological function evaluation reached grade III in 5 patients and grade IV in 1 case. At the same time, the internal fixation of the clavicle was satisfactory and achieved bone union in all cases. Fracture healing time was 2.5 to 4.5 months, with an average of 3.2 months. The internal fixation was removed from 3 patients after operation in 1 year. No obvious limb movement disorder and periarthritis of shoulder and other complications occurred.Conclusion:The transclavicular osteotomy approach with the pedicle of the pectoralis major can fully expose the anatomical alignment of the brachial plexus and the relationship adjacent and between the tumour and the surrounding tissues in the surgery for a brachial plexus tumour behind the clavicle, which is helpful for a complete tumour resection. It is a feasible method to treat brachial plexus tumour behind the clavicle by finding residual tumour-like tissue, reducing the risk of surgery and tumour recurrence, and providing excellent blood supply to the osteotomy segment of the clavicle to promote fracture healing.

Objective To understand the occupational prevention status of clinical nurses in Guangdong province.Methods We investigated 500 nurses in 15 class-three-grade-one hospitals in Guangdong province on occupational prevention status by questionnaires.Results The incidence of pricking wound and incised wound by ampule was frequent.The percent of everyday incidence reached 44.2% and 49.0%.There were 68.2% of nurses wore gloves when contacting the body fluid and blood of patients,55.3% of nurses wore gloves when contacting chemotherapeutic drugs,53.1% of nurses wore gloves during hemospasia,57.2% of them wore gloves when handling urine.There were 52.1% of nurses did not use gauze for protection when handling ampule.There were 61.3% nurses knew related protection law,18.2% of nurses knew the coping process after the incidence of occupational injury.58.2% of nurses established related preventive measure and instructions,43.1% of nurses thought it was necessry for hospitals to produce more comprehensive and systemic occupational prevention instructions.Conclusions The cognition of occupational prevention of nurses was weak and they lacked occupational prevention knowledge.It is necessary to strengthen the occupational prevention education and training.
