Objective To analyze the relationship of the volume of 87 brain regions with postnatal age and neurobehavior in full-term neonates.Methods A total of 75 full-term newborns[gestational age(39.38±1.22)weeks;male/female(51/24);postnatal age(11.11±6.67)days]without abnormalities on brain MRI(three-dimensional T1-weighted imaging,3D T1WI)at our hospital between November 2010 and September 2017 were retrospectively included.Based on the template of 87 brain regions,the neonatal brains were divided into 87 brain regions and their volumes were calculated by using V-shape Bottleneck network(VB-Net)deep learning segmentation technique,Pearson partial correlation and regression analysis were used to explore the relationship of the volume of each brain region with postnatal age and neurobehavioral scores.Results After adjusting for gestational age,birth weight,head circumference,body length and sex,66.7％of the regional brain volumes(58/87 brain regions)significantly increased with the postnatal age(correlation coefficient r:0.2-0.7,P＜0.05).The volumes of gray matter in bilateral lentiform nucleus,left caudate nucleus,right occipital lobe,right inferior temporal lobe,and bilateral anterior temporal lobe strongly correlated with the postnatal age(r＞0.50,P＜0.05).The gray matter volume of the right occipital lobe linearly increased with age(slope:100.67),and was positively correlated with behavioral scores(r=0.324,P＜0.01).Conclusion Most of regional brain volumes increase with the postnatal age during the neonatal period,and the fastest growth occurs in primary sensorimotor-related brain regions,presenting the spatial heterogeneity.Partial brain region grows with the development of behavioral ability.

Objective To explore the effect of exposure to noise of 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)on children's cochlear function.Methods We prospectively recruited 72 children who underwent cranial MRI examination at our hospital from May to November 2018;3M earplugs and sponge mats were used for hearing protection during MRI scanning.Noise level(dBA)of each MRI sequence was detected with a nonmagnetic microphone and a sound level meter.Distortion product otoacoustic emissions(DPOAE)test at 2-7 kHz was performed 24 hours before and 30 minutes after the MRI examination.Paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to analyze differences in DPOAE amplitude before and after the MRI examination.Results The average noise level of MRI measured in the study was(107.7±3.92)dBA.Compared with that before the MRI examination,the DPOAE amplitude(dB)changed little after the MRI examination;the range of amplitude differences in each age group was as follows:left ear(-0.24-1.10)and right ear(-0.24-0.74)in the 0-1 year-old group;left ear(-0.07-0.59)and right ear(-0.57-0.75)in the 2-5 year-old group;left ear(-0.36-0.44)and right ear(-0.30-0.57)in the 6-12 year-old group.No statistically significant difference was found(correction P＞0.05).Conclusion No potential impact of 3.0T MRI noise on children's cochlear function was observed under routine hearing protection.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of CD30 antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) brentuximab vedotin (BV) combined with chemotherapy in children with refractory or relapsed classic Hodgkin′s lymphoma (R/R cHL).Methods:Clinical data (including age, gender, B symptoms, clinical stage, previous treatment, etc.) of the 10 R/R cHL children diagnosed and treated at Beijing Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from October 2021 to August 2023 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the different intensity of chemotherapy drugs, the dose of BV applied in the same course of treatment was 1.8 mg/kg for BV applied once every 3 weeks, and 1.2 mg/kg for BV applied once every 2 weeks. All 10 patients received at least 2 cycles of BV combined with chemotherapy and were evaluated every 2 cycles. The patients were followed up until May 31, 2024. The infusion reactions and adverse reactions after treatment were recorded.Results:In all 10 patients, there were 7 males and 3 females, the age ranged from 5.3-16.9 years, and there were 6 cases of refractory and 4 cases of relapsed. There were 6 cases of nodular sclerosis type, 2 cases of mixed cell type, 1 case of lymphocyte-rich type, and 1 case of lymphodepletion type. There were 5 cases of stage Ⅳ and 5 cases of stage Ⅲ. Previous treatment was mainly chemotherapy, 4 cases received radiotherapy and 1 case received programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) antibody therapy. The follow-up time ranged from 9 to 27 months. A total of 43 courses with 49 doses of BV alone or combined with chemotherapy were recorded, and the number of courses was 2 to 10 times. All 10 children responded to the treatment, and 9 achieved complete remission. BV infusion was successfully completed in all cases. A total of 28 cases of grade 3 or above adverse events were recorded, mainly myelosuppression, all of which were related to chemotherapy and did not affect sequential treatment.Conclusion:Brentuximab vedotin has demonstrated efficacy and a tolerable safety profile in the treatment of refractory and relapsed CD30-positive Hodgkin′s lymphoma in children.

With the increasing number of cancer patients, the aging population, the shortage of medical resources and other problems in China, the demand for palliative care is gradually increasing. However, nursing staff are the main implementors of palliative care, and their cognitive level of palliative care is closely related to the quality of palliative care service and the outcome of patients. By summarizing assessment tools of palliative care knowledge, attitudes and skills, this review aims to provide a reference for developing appropriate palliative care assessment tools for nursing staff in China.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of paliperidone palmitate treatment on schizophrenic patients in the community. Methods446 schizophrenic patients who used paliperidone palmitate injection were selected in Shanghai. Before and after the treatment， the disease family burden scale， the concise evaluation scale of drug treatment compliance， the VAS100 score of treatment satisfaction， the short form of quality of life measurement scale， and the screening scale of social function defects were used to evaluate the effects of paliperidone palmitate injection. The data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 26.0 software. ResultsAfter using paliperidone palmitate injection， the total score of family burden （13.94±12.17）， the score of daily family activities （3.26±2.74）， the score of family entertainment activities （2.21±2.30）， and the score of family relationship （2.79±2.76） were significantly higher than those before the treatment （14.98±12.64， 3.51±2.88， 2.48±2.38， 3.11±2.87， respectively， all with P<0.05）. The scores of the World Health Organization on quality of life brief scale （62.89±11.94） and the medication compliance scale （28.11±5.64） were better than those before treatment （60.67±12.62 and 27.37±6.96， all with P<0.05）. Compared with the prior treatment without paliperidone palmitate injection， the number of readmissions after treatment was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. ConclusionThe treatment of paliperidone palmitate injection has significant effect， which can effectively reduce the disease family burden of Schizophrenic patients， improve their quality of life， enhance their drug compliance， reduce the readmission rate of patients， ensure long-term treatment effect and promote disease recovery.

Objective:Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology is used to compare the advantages of insulin degludec (IDeg) as a basal insulin regimen compared with insulin glargine (IGlar) in the treatment of adult type 1 diabetes mellitus.Methods:30 adult patients with T1DM admitted to Heji Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College from September 2019 to December 2020 were screened. According to the random number table method, the patients were randomly divided into two groups (insulin degludec group and insulin glargine group) at a ratio of 1∶1, respectively treated with IDeg, IGlar and aspartate insulin for 12 weeks. The main outcome measures were the coefficient of variation of blood glucose (CV), mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE), time in range (TIR), time above range (TAR) and time below range (TBR). The secondary outcome measures were mean blood glucose (MBG), standard deviation of blood glucose (SD), fasting blood glucose (FPG), 2 h postprandial blood glucose (2 h BG), hemoglobin A1c (HbA 1c), means of daily differences (MOOD), and the frequency of hypoglycemic events. Results:At 12 weeks of treatment, the HbA 1c, FPG, 2 h BG, MBG, SD, CV and MAGE of insulin degludec group were lower than those of insulin glargine group, with statistically significant difference (all P<0.05). The TIR in the insulin degludec group was significantly higher than that in the insulin glargine group [73(63, 75)% vs 43(28, 63)%, P<0.001], and the TAR was lower than that in the glycerine group [25(17, 23)% vs 35(33, 64)%, P=0.003]. From the curve spectrum of blood glucose level of the two groups, the stability of blood glucose in the insulin degludec group was better than that in the insulin glargine group. After 12 weeks of treatment, 8 cases (8/15) in insulin degludec group had HbA 1c<7.0%, and 4 cases (4/15) in insulin glargine group had HbA 1c<7.0%, without statistically significant difference ( P=0.264). There were 7 cases (7/15) in the insulin degludec group and 1 case (1/15) in the insulin glargine group who achieved high quality blood glucose control, with statistically significant difference ( P=0.035). At the 12th week of outpatient follow-up, the incidence of nocturnal hypoglycemic events in insulin degludec group was significantly lower than that in insulin glargine group (4/15 vs 11/15, P=0.027). Conclusions:Compared with insulin glargine, insulin degludec can achieve higher blood glucose compliance rate, lower blood glucose level and reduce blood glucose fluctuations in patients with type 1 diabetes.

Objective:To establish the normal reference value of lumbar bone mineral density (BMD) under quantitative CT (QCT) in Chinese healthy adult females and to explore the regional differences.Methods:Total of 35 431 healthy women who met the inclusion criteria of Chinese health quantitative CT big data program were selected in this study. The BMD of the central plane of L 1 and L 2 vertebrae was measured by Mindways′s QCT system, and the mean value was taken. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the BMD differences of lumbar vertebrae in women of different ages and regions. The subjects were grouped by an age interval of 10 years, and the level of BMD in different regions of the same age group were compaired. Results:The peak BMD of Chinese healthy adult women appeared in the age group of 20-29 years (Northeast China(183.01±24.58) mg/cm 3, North China (188.93±24.80) mg/cm 3, East China (187.54±27.71) mg/cm 3, South China (186.22±33.72) mg/cm 3, Central China (176.33±24.91) mg/cm 3, Southwest China(182.25±28.00) mg/cm 3), and then it decreased with age. The level of BMD in different regions decreased with the age. Before the age of 70 years, BMD in Central and Southwest China was always at a low level((176.23±24.91) to (90.38±28.12) mg/cm 3, 182.25±28.00 to (88.55±25.68) mg/cm 3), lower than those in Northeast China ((183.01±24.58) to (99.69±27.85) mg/cm 3), North China ((188.93±24.80) to (95.89±26.12) mg/cm 3), East China ((187.54±27.71) to (95.65±27.86) mg/cm 3). After 70 years of age, BMD tended to be the same in different regions ( P>0.05). The BMD values in Central China and Southwest China were similar in the age group of 40-60 years ( P>0.05). The BMD values in the health adult femles in the age group of 60 years in different regions of Chinawere all lower than those of bone mass abnormality (all P<0.05). The detection rate of osteoporosis in females over 50 years was the highest in Southwest China (25.65%) and it was the lowest in North China (17.30%). Conclusions:This study establishes reference values of BMD under QCT in healthy Chinese women, which can be used as a reference basis for identifying women with low BMD who are at risk of osteoporosis. The BMD value is the lowest in Southwest China and the highest in South China.

Objective:To investigate the coverage rate and the adverse reactions of National Immunization Program vaccines in children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).Methods:A cross-sectional retrospective cohort study was carried out from July 2016 to June 2019, 192 children (116 boys and 76 girls) with SMA registered by Capital Institute of Pediatrics and 191 healthy children (115 boys and 76 girls) vaccinated in Chaoyang Olympic Village Community Health Service Center from July 2016 to December 2018 were included. Questionnaire survey was designed to investigate the vaccination coverage rate and associated adverse events. The t-test and χ 2 test were used to compare the difference between SMA patients and healthy children. Results:The coverage rate of age-appropriate immunization in SMA children was 62.0% (119/192) in general, and were 52.2% (12/23), 55.7% (68/122), and 83.0% (39/47) for SMA type 1-3 patients, respectively (χ 2=12.23, P=0.002). The vaccination coverage rates of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine, the 3 rd dose of hepatitis B, the 3 rd dose of polio, the 3 rd dose of diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus, the 1 st dose of meningococcal polysaccharide group A, the 1 st dose of measles or measles and rubella vaccine, the 1 st dose of Japanese encephalitis vaccine, hepatitis A, measles-mumps-rubella, and group A+C meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine were 100.0% (192 cases), 94.3% (181 cases), 81.8% (157 cases), 88.5% (170 cases), 83.9% (161 cases), 76.6% (147 cases), 80.2% (154 cases), 68.2% (131 cases), 69.8% (134 cases), 54.7% (105 cases), respectively. Among the 73 patients who did not have their planned immunization completed, 57 cases (78.1%) gave up the vaccination due to parents′ concern of potential aggravation of their disease, and 16 cases (21.9%) had the plan discontinued by the immunization department because of the disease. Fever, local redness and swelling were the most common side-effects after vaccination both in SMA patients and healthy children (19.8% (38/192) vs. 18.8% (36/191) , χ 2=0.055, P=0.815). The main abnormal reactions of vaccination were rash and neurovascular edema, without significant difference between these two groups (2.6% (5/192) vs. 3.7% (7/191), χ 2=0.355, P=0.551). The coverage rate of Influenza and pneumococcal vaccine in SMA patients were 22.4% (43 cases) and 31.8% (61 cases), respectively. The incidence of pneumonia in the SMA patients decreased from 59.0% (23/39) to 41.0% (16/39) after vaccination. And none of the Influenza vaccinated patients had the flu in the year of vaccination. Conclusions:The coverage rate of National Immunization Program vaccines in the SMA children is low, especially in type 1 SMA patients, which is mainly due to their guardians′ concern of potential adverse events, even though the incidence of adverse reactions is similar in SMA patients and healthy children. Influenza and pneumococcal vaccine can reduce the risk of pneumonia and flu in children with SMA effectively.

Objective? To explore the hope among acute cardiovascular events (ACE) patients with different family types. Methods? From December 2015 to December 2016, we selected 110 outpatients underwent ACE of Department of Cardiovascular Medicine in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University as subjects by convenience sampling. All of the patients were investigated with the Chinese Version of Family Cohesion and Adaptability Scale (FACESⅡ-CV) and Herth Hope Index (HHI) to compare hope among patients with different family types. Results? Subjects were divided into the balance type family (30 cases), the intermedius type (32 cases) and the extreme type (48 cases) according to the survey findings of FACESⅡ-CV. There were statistical differences in hope among ACE patients with different family types (P＜ 0.01). Conclusions? After ACE,hope of patients of the extreme type family is higher than that of intermedius type and balance type. Nursing workers should guide family types after ACE to transform into extreme type so as to improve hope and promote recovery of patients.
