Objective:To evaluate the effect of intraoperative optimization of regional cerebral oxygen saturation(rSO 2C) intervention on postoperative delirium(POD) in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB). Methods:Two hundred and seventy-three pediatric patients of both sexes, aged 28 days-6 yr, with American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification ≤Ⅳ, scheduled for elective cardiac surgery under CPB, were divided into intervention group( n=136) and control group( n=137) based on the computer random coding. In intervention group, optimized intervention measures were given when rSO 2C was below 75% of the baseline value for more than 1 min. In control group, rSO 2C was not monitored during operation, and intraoperative management was performed according to the routine monitoring indicators of pediatric cardiac surgery under CPB. The occurrence of POD within 7 days after operation was evaluated, and the duration and first occurrence time of POD were recorded. Results:Compared with control group, no significant change was found in the incidence of POD( P>0.05), the first occurrence time of POD was significantly prolonged, and the duration of POD was shortened in intervention group( P<0.05). Conclusions:Intraoperative optimization of rSO 2C intervention can delay the time to the first occurrence of POD and shorten the duration in pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery under CPB.

This article reports the diagnosis and treatment of two cases of complex ureteral obstruction (UO) in transplanted kidneys managed at Tangdu Hospital of Air Force Medical University of PLA in 2023. UO is a challenging complication following kidney transplantation, with surgical repair being the primary treatment approach. Both patients underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic (RAL) anastomosis of the transplanted kidney collecting system with the autologous ureter. The procedures were successfully performed, and both recipients were discharged without complications. During a six-month postoperative follow-up, the morphology and function of the transplanted kidneys remained stable, with no recurrence of hydronephrosis, fever, pain, urinary frequency, or urgency. This case report provides new insights into the diagnosis and surgical management of complex UO in kidney transplant recipients.

Objective: To analyze the consumption frequency of major foods among Chinese children aged 6-17 years old, and to provide a basis for optimizing the dietary structure of children in China. Methods: Using data from the China Nutrition and Health System Survey and Application Program for Children 0-18 years old, 56 734 children aged 6-17 years old from North, Norththeast East, Central, South, Southwest and Northwest seven regions in China were selected for the study using stratified cluster random sampling from 2019 to 2021. A food frequency questionnaire was used to investigate the intake frequency of eight food groups in a month, including fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, livestock and poultry meats, aquatic products, eggs, dairy products, legumes, and cereals and potatoes. The foods were grouped according to whether they met the recommended intake criteria outlined in the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents 2022. The〖KG*2〗χ2 test was used to compare the differences in the proportion of childrens intake frequency of each food group meeting the standard in different regions and age groups. Results: The proportions of Chinese children aged 6-17 years who consumed fresh vegetables and cereals and potatoes ≥3 times/d were 12.1% and 67.2%, respectively. The proportions of children who consumed fresh fruits, livestock and poultry meats, eggs and dairy products ≥1 time/d were 50.8%, 58.8%, 36.0% and 54.3%, respectively. The proportion of legumes consumed ≥4 times/week was 37.4%, and the proportion of aquatic products consumed ≥2 times/week was 39.7%. Fresh vegetables (5.5%), fresh fruits (33.1%), and dairy products (36.4%) had the lowest frequency of meeting the recommended standards in South China, and aquatic products (27.4%) and eggs (21.1%) had the lowest frequency of meeting the recommended standards in Northwest (P<0.008 3). Conclusion The overall intake frequency of fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, legumes, and dairy products are insufficient among Chinese children, with significant regional variations.

Background: and Purpose Limited evidence exists on the effectiveness of endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute posterior circulation tandem lesion (PCTL). This study aimed to explore the role of extracranial vertebral artery (VA) stenting in patients with PCTL stroke undergoing EVT. Methods: Individual patient data were pooled from the BASILAR (EVT for Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion Study) and PERSIST (Posterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke) registries. Patients with PCTLs who underwent EVT were included in the present cohort and divided into the stenting and nonstenting groups based on the placement of extracranial VA stents. The primary efficacy outcome was the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores at 90 days and 1 year. Safety outcomes included 24-hour symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and all-cause mortality at 90 days and 1 year post-surgery. Results: A combined dataset of 1,320 patients with posterior circulation artery occlusion, including 263 (19.9%) with tandem lesions, of whom 217 (median age, 65 years; 82.9% male) met the inclusion criteria for the analysis. The stenting group had 84 (38.7%) patients, while the non-stenting group had 133 (61.3%). After adjustment for the potential confounders, extracranial VA stenting was associated with favorable shifts in mRS scores at both 90 days (adjusted common odds ratio [OR], 2.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.23–4.28; P<0.01) and 1 year (adjusted OR [aOR], 2.04; 95% CI [1.05–3.97]; P=0.04), along with lower rate of mortality at both 90 days (aOR, 0.45; 95% CI [0.21–0.93]; P=0.01) and 1 year (aOR, 0.36; 95% CI [0.16–0.79]; P=0.01), with no significant difference in sICH incidence (aOR, 0.35; 95% CI [0.06–1.98]; P=0.24). Conclusion Extracranial VA stenting during EVT may improve functional outcomes and reduce mortality in patients with PCTL strokes.

Objective:To investigate WS 582-2017 Specifications for testing of quality control in X and γ ray stereotactic radiotherapy system (hereinafter referred to as WS 582-2017) with respect to its current status, existing problems and evaluation since its implementation in Beijing, Chongqing, Jiangsu and Sichuan. Methods:The evaluation of this standard was carried out by means of field survey, questionnaire survey and expert seminar. In accordance with the WS 582-2017 implementation assessment programme, a total of 153 professionals involved in the implementation of WS 582-2017 from 80 radiological health technical service institutions, health supervision institutions and medical institutions of two municipalities and two provinces were surveyed in 2023. The investigation was carried out by using a combination of cluster sampling and stratified sampling and through sampling professionals with of different institution characteristics and different technical titles. The general survey method was used for Jiangsu province, while the cluster sampling method was used for others, with 153 individulas from 80 institutions being sampled for the investigation.Results:The awareness rate of WS 582-2017 was 80.39%, of which 90.85% considered it to be scientific and rigorous, 81.05% considered it to be operational and 97.39% considered it to be in consistency with the relevant regulatory standards, 90.20% considerd it to have played an important role in promoting radiological protection optimization for radiotherapy, 90.85% considered the implementation of it to have played a significant role in the quality control of standarded testing of radiotherapy equipment, and 86.93% considered the implementation of it to have played a significant role in enhancing the professional competence of relevant technicians.Conclusions:The overall implementation of WS 582-2017 in two municipalities and two provinces is good, with scientific and operable technical contents and the remarkable effect achieved in its implementation. However, the WS 582-2017 needs to be further improved in some areas, and training on the standard needs to be strengthened to improve the awareness rate of it.
