ObjectiveTo analyze the characteristics of 150 patients with spinal cord injury complicated with spasticity. MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted on 150 patients with spinal cord injury accompanied by spasticity from September, 2019 to December, 2024. Their age, gender, cause of injury, injury site, severity of injury, spasticity severity and other indicators were recorded. The relationships between different characteristics were analyzed, and a correlation analysis of disease duration, spasticity grade, injury level, injury severity and age were conducted. ResultsThere was no significant difference in age distribution between patients with tetraplegia and paraplegia (Z = 0.806, P = 0.420). The proportions of trauma (χ2 = 3.982, P = 0.046) and tetraplegia (χ2 = 10.559, P = 0.010) were higher in males than in females. Trauma was the main cause of injury in both tetraplegia and paraplegia patients; the proportion of tetraplegia was higher than paraplegia in trauma patients, while paraplegia was higher than tetraplegia in non-trauma patients (χ2 = 11.885, P < 0.001). Patients with tetraplegia was dominated by incomplete injury, whereas patients with paraplegia was dominated by complete injury (χ2 = 10.885, P = 0.012). Grade A injury was predominant in trauma patients (P = 0.003). Spasticity grade showed a very weak positive correlation with disease duration (r = 0.175, P = 0.032) and age (r = 0.168, P = 0.040). Injury severity showed a very weak positive correlation with age (r = 0.183, P = 0.025). ConclusionCharacteristics of patients with spinal cord injury complicated with spasticity is different with gender, cause of injury, injury level, injury severity.

Objective To understand mosquito density, species composition, and seasonal variations around the Beijing Capital International Airport(BCIA)and provide scientific evidence for mosquito-borne disease prevention and control. Methods Meteorological data were collected from 2016 to 2022, and mosquito density was monitored at seven surveillance sites around the BCIA from May to October each year using CO2-baited mosquito traps to analyze the relationship between mosquito density and meteorological factors. Results In total,68 518 female mosquitoes were captured, with a mosquito density of 10.20 per light · hour. The dominant species was Culex pipiens pallens(73.90%), followed by Aedes albopictus(9.71%)and Ae. vexans(9.29%);the mosquito density was highest in 2016(14.8 per light·hour)and lowest in 2022(4.46 per light·hour). Significant statistical differences were observed in mosquito density among different species(F=18.118, P<0.05). The density of Cx. pipiens pallens and other mosquito species showed a mutually exclusive trend; the peak of mosquito density varied based on years and habitats, with significant statistical differences in mosquito density among different habitats(F=8.504, P<0.05). The highest mosquito density was observed near the Wenyu River(21.50 per light·hour), whereas the lowest was recorded at the BCIA construction site(2.44 per light· hour). The monthly average temperature(r=0.595), monthly average highest temperature(r=0.575), and monthly average lowest temperature(r=0.624)showed moderate positive correlations, whereas the monthly average air pressure(r=-0.484)showed a moderate negative correlation. The monthly average minimum temperature was included in the regression model(F=25.575, P<0.000), and the equation Y=1.029X4-8.181 was used. The monthly average air pressure 2 months prior(b=-2.418, β=-1.619, P<0.05)and the monthly average relative humidity(b=-0.739, β=-1.201, P<0.05)significantly negatively predicted the mosquito density. Notably, the regression equation used was y=2526.170+(-2.418)X9+(-0.739)X13. The exposure-response analysis revealed that the density of mosquitoes was not linearly related to the average monthly air pressure, rainfall, and duration of sunshine. Conclusions The dominant mosquito species around the BCIA was Cx. pipiens pallens, Ae. albopictus, and Ae. vexans. During the control of Cx. pipiens pallens, the impact on other mosquito species must also be considered. Environmental management, breeding sites, and scientific use of pesticides should be prioritized based on the activity periods of mosquitoes. Further studies on mosquitoes and meteorological factors should be conducted to provide references and novel avenues for mosquito control.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of tigecycline-related adverse reactions and provide the basis for the safe and rational use of the drug.Methods:Adverse reaction reports with suspected drug as tigecycline from Beijing Adverse Drug Reaction Monitoring Center from January 1st, 2019 to June 30th, 2024 were collected. The adverse reaction reports were standardized using the preferred term (PT) and system organ class (SOC) in the Chinese updated edition (2015 version) of the World Health Organization Adverse Reaction Terminology. The patients' general condition, tigecycline use, and adverse reaction occurrence (including latency, severity, treatment, outcome, and correlation evaluation) were descriptively and statistically analyzed. Results:A total of 408 tigecycline-related adverse reaction reports were entered, including 153 females (37.5%) and 255 males (62.5%). The age was (68±21) years, ranging from 2 to 99. The main reasons for tigecycline use were infections of lung, blood flow, skin and skin soft tissue, etc. The pathogens were mainly Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumanii, Escherichia coli, etc. The usage and dosage of tigecycline in most patients were in line with the instructions. Four hundred and eight adverse event reports involved 11 SOCs and 580 PTs. The top 3 SOCs were gastrointestinal diseases (195 case times, 33.62%), vascular, bleeding and coagulation diseases (183 case times, 31.55%), and hepatobiliary diseases (142 case times, 24.48%). The main clinical manifestations were nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, etc. The main laboratory abnormalities were decreased plasma fibrinogen, decreased platelet count, increased alanine aminotransferase, increased aspartate aminotransferase, and increased bilirubin. There were 27 case times of adverse reactions that were not recorded in the instructions, mainly including leukopenia, abdominal distension, fever, dysbacteriosis, etc. The latency of adverse reactions ranged from 5 min to 65 days, with a median time of 5 days. The grade of adverse reactions was general in 379 patients (92.89%) and severe in 29 patients (7.11%). The top 3 SOCs involved in 53 case times of severe adverse reactions were hepatobiliary diseases (30 case times, 56.60%), vascular, bleeding and coagulation diseases (8 case times, 15.09%), and urinary tract diseases (4 case times, 7.55%), the main clinical manifestations were elevated liver enzymes, coagulation disorders, pancreatitis, etc. After the occurrence of adverse reactions, all patients stopped tigecycline, and received symptomatic treatments such as liver protection, intravenous infusion of human fibrinogen, intravenous infusion of platelets, and antidiarrheal therapy. Among 408 patients, 66 (16.18%) were cured, 297 (72.79%) were improved, 20 (4.90%) were not improved, and 25 cases' outcome (6.13%) were unknown. The shortest time for recovery or improvement was 0.5 hour, the longest was 44 days, with a median time of 5 days. The correlation between tigecycline and adverse reactions was probable in 132 patients (32.35%), and possible in 276 patients (67.65%). Conclusions:Tigecycline-related adverse reactions involve multiple organ systems, mainly including gastrointestinal diseases, vascular, bleeding and coagulation diseases, and hepatobiliary diseases, etc. which can lead to severe adverse reactions such as acute pancreatitis and coagulation disorders. After drug withdrawal and symptomatic treatments, most patients had a good prognosis.
