ABSTRACT: Meningiomas are the most common primary intracranial neoplasm with diverse pathological types and complicated clinical manifestations. The fifth edition of the WHO Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System (WHO CNS5), published in 2021, introduces major changes that advance the role of molecular diagnostics in meningiomas. To follow the revision of WHO CNS5, this expert consensus statement was formed jointly by the Group of Neuro-Oncology, Society of Neurosurgery, Chinese Medical Association together with neuropathologists and evidence-based experts. The consensus provides reference points to integrate key biomarkers into stratification and clinical decision making for meningioma patients.

Objective To estimate the value of T cell subset monitoring on early diagnosis and prognosis in traumatic sepsis patients defined by sepsis-3.Methods A total of 102 severe trauma patients were prospectively collected in an Emergency Intensive Care Unit (EICU) of a tertiary hospital from 1st July 2017 to 30th September 2017.Finally 28 patients were confirmed as sepsis according to the sepsis-3 guideline.The levels of blood T cell subsets (CD3,CD4,and CD8) were measured at day 1,3 and 7 after ICU admission and after diagnosis.Receiver operating characteristic curve and multivariate regression analysis were used.Results The levels of CD3 and CD4,and CD4/CD8 ratio in severe trauma patients first decreased and then increased within one week after admission,while CD8 level first increased and then decreased.The levels of CD3 and CD4 and CD4/CD8 ratio showed a decreased tendency and CD8 level showed an increased tendency in the death and traumatic sepsis groups.The CD4/CD8 ratio at day 1 after admission was relatively effective in diagnosing traumatic sepsis.The area under the ROC curve was 0.901 with a sensitivity and specificity of 88.89％ and 83.33％,respectively.The CD4/CD8 ratio at day 1 after diagnosis of traumatic sepsis was a risk factor for predicting patient mortality (OR=1.43;95％CI:1.27-1.89).Conclusions Cellular immunity in severe trauma patients presents a process of inhibition before recovery.The CD4/CD8 ratio can better diagnose traumatic sepsis and evaluate the prognosis..

Objective To understand the prevalence,treatment and influence factors of hypertension in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients in Anhui Province.Methods A total of 2724 adult patients on MHD from January 1st 2014 to March 31st 2014 in 26 hospitals of southern,northern and central Anhui Province were investigated.Their demographic characteristics,primary disease,complications,medications,dialysis and laboratory examination were explored.The prevalence treatment rate and control rate of hypertension were analyzed.Associated factors for controlling hypertension [systolic blood pressure (SBP) ＜ 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ＜ 90 mmHg] were assessed by logistic regression analysis.Results (1) The prevalence of hypertension in the hemodialysis patients was 87.0％.Their treatment rate and control rate were 93.2％ and 23.9％ respectively.The average of SBP was (145.90±21.18) mmHg,and the DBP on average was (83.60± 12.21) mmHg.The most commonly used anti-hypertensive drug is calcium channel blocker (88.2％).Over one third (45.7％) of patients were treated with two kinds of anti-hypertensive drug,26.2％ with 1 kind,21.7％ with 3 kinds,and 6.4％ with 4 kinds or more.(2) Compared with non-hypertension patients,patients with hypertension have older age,higher body mass index (BMI),phosphorus,SBP and DBP,as well as lower hemoglobin and Kt/V (all P ＜ 0.05).(3) The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that Ca ＞ 2.50 mmol/L (OR=2.084,95％CI 1.008-4.307,P=0.047) positively correlated with controlling hypertension,while smoke (OR=0.594,95％CI 0.356-0.911,P=0.046) and BMI 18.5 ～ 23.9 kg/m2 (OR=0.516,95％CI 0.293-0.907,P=0.022) negatively correlated with it.Conclusions High prevalence yet low control rate of hypertension in MHD patients in Anhui Province were observed.Hypocalcemia may be a protective factor for hypertension control,while smoke and BMI may be risk factors for it.

Objective To explore the occurrence and related factors of diarrhea in the early stage of enternal nutrition in critically ill patients, therefore providing guidance for the optimization of enteral nutrition. Methods A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted in 29 ICUs of 28 general hospitals of Zhejiang Province between June 1 and October 1, 2016. Patients who were admitted to ICU required for enteral nutrition were included and continuously observed for over 7 days or till discharged from ICU. The patient's general characteristics, severity of disease, enteral nutrition, diarrhea-related and prognostic indicators were recorded. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to analysis risk factors associated with diarrhea and in-hospital mortality. Results A total of 533 critically ill patientswere enrolled in this study. The overall incidence of diarrhea was 30.8％ (n = 164). Diarrhea occurred most frequently on the three days after EN, with a median duration of 2 (1, 3) days. The daily incidence of diarrhea were significantly different between groups (all P< 0.05), which were gradually reduced on day 7. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that prokinetic drugs (OR=1.82; 95％ CI: 1.24-2.65), APACHE II score (OR=1.04; 95％ CI: 1.02-1.07), post-pylorus enteral feeding (OR=1.90; 95％ CI:1.11-3.36) were independent risk factors for diarrhea, while interruption of EN (OR=3.74; 95％ CI: 1.85-7.54), APACHE II score (OR=1.07; 95％ CI: 1.04-1.11), vasoactive agent (OR=2.31; 95％ CI: 1.42-3.77), and timing (>48 h) (OR=2.00; 95％ CI: 1.08-3.70) were independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality. Conclusions Our study showed that APACHE II score, the use of prokinetic drugs, and post-pylorus enteral feeding were risk factors for diarrhea. Patients suffering diarrhea experienced increased ICU length of stay, increased the time of mechanical ventilation and in-hospital mortality compared with patients without diarrhea. Interruption of EN induced by diarrhea significantly increased the risk of in-hospital mortality.

Objective: To investigate the current status of job burnout in clinical nurses in a grade A tertiary hospitalin Shaoxing,China and related influencing factors. Methods: In October 2016, the Nursing Burnout Scale (NBS)was used for the investigation of 304 clinical nurses in a grade A tertiary hospital.The contents of the investigation included general data(including age,education background,working years,marital status, frequency of night shifts,professional title, and way of employment), characteristics of working environment,burnout, personality characteristics,coping strategy,and psychosomatic symptoms.SPSS 18.0 was used to conduct Pearson correlation analysis of the scores of each dimension of NBS. A multivariate regression analysis was performed with the demographic features of clinical nurses as the independent variable and the scores of each dimension of NBS as the dependent variable. Results: Among the clinical nurses in this grade A tertiary hospital, the incidence rate of severe burnout was 74%.The Pearson correlation analysis showed that burnout,pessimistic personality,negative coping,and psychosomatic symptoms were positively correlated with working environment(r=0.530,0.316,0.116,and 0.502); pessimistic personality and psychosomatic symptoms were positively correlated with burnout(r=0.618 and 0.675); psychosomatic symptoms were positively correlated withpessimistic personality(r=0.540); negative coping was negatively correlated with pessimistic personality(r=-0.145).The multivariate linear regression analysis showed that department(Department of Internal Medicine or Department of Surgery,B=-0.364 and -0.428)and frequency of night shifts(<6 times/month and 6-10 times/month,B=0.199 and 0.256)were influencing factors for the score of working environment; department(Department of Internal Medicine or Department of Surgery, B=-0.350 and -0.360)was an influencing factor for the score of burnout; 1-3 working years(B=-0.238)was an influencing factor for the score of pessimistic personality; married state,1-3 working years,and department (Department of Internal Medicine or Department of Surgery)were influencing factors for the score of psychosomatic symptoms(B=0.263,-0.301,-0.322,and -0.391). Conclusion There is a high incidence rate of job burnout among clinical nurses in this grade A tertiary hospital,which is associated with burnout,working environment, pessimistic personality,and psychosomatic symptoms.Marital status,working years,department,and frequency of night shifts are major influencing factors for job burnout.

Background:Drug-induced liver injury( DILI)is a kind of commonly seen diseases,in which typical clinical manifestations are lacking and misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis are frequently occurred. Aims:To investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with DILI. Methods:Clinical data of patients with DILI at Zhongshan Hospital,Xiamen University from January 2014 to December 2015 were collected. Clinical characteristics were retrospectively analyzed and the relationship between clinical characteristics and prognosis was investigated. Results:A total of 51 patients with DILI were enrolled,the ratio of male to female was 1∶ 1. 32,the average age at diagnosis was(50. 6 ± 17. 9)years old,the highest proportion(43. 1% )of patients were aged 60 and older. Hepatocellular damage was the main type of liver injury (84. 3% ). Chinese herbs,cardiovascular drugs,hormone and endocrine drugs were the most common drugs causing DILI, which accounted for 51. 0% ,19. 6% and 9. 8% ,respectively. Concomitant diseases of DILI covered many systems. The clinical manifestation of DILI was atypical,and the laboratory examination also lacked specificity. The positivity rate of autoimmune antibody was 5. 9% . Most patients had good prognosis,and the cure rate and improvement rate were 21. 6%and 66. 7% ,respectively. The mortality rate was 5. 9% with the cause of death being liver failure. Levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),total bilirubin(TBIL),albumin,prothrombin time(PT) and international normalized ratio( INR) at admission were correlated significantly with prognosis( P ﹤ 0. 05 ). Conclusions:DILI commonly occurs in elderly population,and inappropriate use of Chinese herbs maybe the important cause. The clinical manifestation of DILI is not typical,and most patients have good prognosis. Levels of ALT,AST, TBIL,albumin,PT and INR at admission are correlated significantly with prognosis.

ObjectiveTo assess whether intravenous contrast medium would result in acute kidney injury (AKI), and to determine the risk factors associated with contrast induced AKI (CI-AKI) and its outcome.Methods A retrospective observational study was conducted in intensive care unit (ICU) of Fuyang People's Hospital in Zhejiang Province from January 1st 2011 to December 31st 2014. All enrolled critically ill patients had accepted CT scan, and the hospital length of stay was longer than 48 hours, and the patients who needed renal replacement treatment were excluded. Patients were divided into contrast medium group and control group. AKI was defined according to Acute Kidney Injury Network (AKIN) criteria (serum creatinine content over 26.4μmol/L or 50% increase of it from baseline within 48 hours). The incidence of AKI was compared between the two groups, and risk factors for CI-AKI were determined by multiple logistic regression analysis. The relationship of CI-AKI and outcomes were also analyzed. Results A total of 2 370 critically ill patients were enrolled during the period. 474 (20.0%) of the 2 370 patients received contrast medium, and 70 of them suffered from CI-AKI (14.8%). In 1 896 patients who did not receive contrast medium, 235 of them suffered from AKI (12.4%). There was no significant difference in the incidence of AKI between two groups (χ2= 1.905,P = 0.168). After several confounding factors were adjusted, multiple logistic regression analysis showed that contrast medium was not found to associate with AKI in critically ill patients [odds ratio (OR) = 1.66, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.72-3.90,P = 0.201], and high acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ (APACHEⅡ) score (OR = 1.70, 95%CI = 1.33-2.40,P< 0.001), sepsis (OR= 8.06, 95%CI =3.28-17.80,P< 0.001), shock (OR= 3.57, 95%CI = 1.73-8.01,P< 0.001) and use of nephrotoxic agent (OR= 1.96, 95%CI = 1.25-2.63,P = 0.015) were risk factors of CI-AKI. Ten of 70 patients with CI-AKI died (14.3%), and 21 out of 404 patients without CI-AKI, died (5.2%). There was no significant difference in the mortality rate (χ2= 8.060, P = 0.005). It was shown by multiple logistic regression analysis that age (OR=1.30, 95%CI = 1.05-1.71,P = 0.027), male sex (OR = 1.13, 95%CI = 1.05-1.20,P = 0.039), APACHEⅡscore (OR = 1.07, 95%CI = 1.03-1.18,P< 0.001), and sepsis (OR = 3.29, 95%CI = 1.92-6.46,P< 0.001) were highly associated with mortality of critically ill patients in whom contrast medium was used. However, the occurrence of CI-AKI showed no influence on the mortality rate (OR = 1.70, 95%CI = 0.88-3.56,P = 0.227).Conclusions The use of contrast medium is not a risk factor of CI-AKI in critically ill patients. CI-AKI will not raise mortality rate in ICU patients.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of dexmedetomidine combining with sufentanyl in controlling PCIA after laryngeal carcinoma surgery. Methods One hundred laryngeal carcinoma patients (ASAⅠorⅡ) were randomly assigned into 2 groups (n = 50, in each group). Group SF: sufentanil 0.04 mg/(kg·h)+dolasetron 12.5 mg; Group DE: dexmedetomidine 0.1 mg/(kg·h) +sufentani 0.02 mg/(kg· h) +dolasetron 12.5 mg, in which all drugs were dissolved in 100 mL 0.9% normal saline. Parameters: Infusion speed 2 mL/h; PCIA dosage 0.5 mL each time; monitor time: 15 min. PCIA were administrated after anesthesia recovery; BP, HR, SpO2, RR, RPP, pain and sedation score, side effect formation rate at 4、12、24、48 h after surgery were also recorded. Results MAP, RPP and HR in group DE were significant decreased compared with group SF at each time point,(P < 0.05); VAS scores had no significant difference between the two groups(P >0.05); Ramsay calm scores in group DE were significant better than that in group SF at each time point after surgery (P < 0.05); Frequency of nausea,vomiting and chills in group DE were significant lower than those in group SF (P < 0.05). Conclusion Small dose dexmedetomidine combination with sufentanil administration in PCIA after laryngeal carcinoma surgery could acquire satisfied analgesic effect , also could eliminate the patient anxious mood , enhance the security in the perioperative period and improve the patients' satisfaction degree , whichis very suitable for multi mode analgesia acquirement.

Objective To evaluate the safety,effectiveness,and middle or long-term efficacy of endovascular stenting of internal carotid artery stenosis at the cavernous segment. Methods Thirty-two patients underwent endovascular stenting at the cavernous segment of internal carotid artery from January 2012 to February 2015 were enrolled retrospectively. Angioplasty and stenting were conducted using Apollo or Winspan stent system. The improvement of internal carotid artery cavernous segment stenosis and perioperative safety and the results of the medium and long-term follow-up of the 2 kinds of stents were observed. Results All the 32 patients achieved technical success. The symptoms of cerebral ischemia of the patients were relieved significantly. The length of the stenosis at cavernous segment of the internal carotid artery was 4 to 13 mm (mean,7. 2 ±2. 9 mm). The stenosis rate from 82 ± 7% before treatment decreased to the 24 ± 7% . One patient had perioperative complication (4. 7%),26 of them were followed up with DSA,and 6 were lost to follow-up. The follow-up period ranged from 7 to 29 months (mean,16 ± 7 months). During the follow-up period,1 patient had intracerebral hemorrhage,1 had cerebral infarction,and none of them died. Four patients had in-stent restenosis,three of them used Winspan stents, and 1 used Apollo stents. Conclusion The patients should be screened strictly,particularly paying attention to the length of lesions. Endovascular stent angioplasty for the treatment of internal carotid artery cavernous segment stenosis is a safe and effective method.
