Objective:
To investigate the availability and use of child safety seats among children aged 0-3 years, so as to provide the basis for improving riding safety for children.
Methods:
Parents of children aged 0-3 years in Huangpu District, Shanghai Municipality, were recruited using the stratified multistage random sampling method from May to July 2024. Demographic information, family travel patterns, the use of child safety seat and related health beliefs were collected using questionnaire surveys. Factors affecting the use of child safety seats were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
Totally 514 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective rate of 96.98%. The respondents included 122 fathers (23.74%) and 392 mothers (76.26%), with a median age of 34.00 (interquartile range, 5.00) years. There were 446 families equipping with child safety seats, accounting for 86.77%; and 169 families using child safety seats, accounting for 32.88%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the parents who had children aged >1-2 years (OR=0.597, 95%CI: 0.366-0.973), travelled 2-4 times per month (OR=0.359, 95%CI: 0.213-0.607) or once per month or less (OR=0.384, 95%CI: 0.202-0.729), and scored high in perceived barrier (OR=0.634, 95%CI: 0.486-0.827) were less likely to use child safety seats; the parents who had children with local household registration (OR=2.506, 95%CI: 1.356-4.633), travelled 5-<10 km (OR=1.887, 95%CI: 1.148-3.101) or ≥10 km (OR=2.319, 95%CI: 1.355-3.967), always wore seat belts (OR=2.342, 95%CI: 1.212-4.524), scored high in perceived susceptibility (OR=1.392, 95%CI: 1.091-1.778) and self-efficacy (OR=1.413, 95%CI: 1.156-1.727) were more likely to use child safety seats.
Conclusions
Equipping family cars with child safety seats and using them can prevent and reduce traffic injuries among children aged 0-3 years. It is recommended to strengthen publicity to promote the use of child safety seats.

ObjectiveTo analyze the detected results of CD4+T lymphocytes and viral load in newly identified human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients in Huangpu District of Shanghai in 2023, to explore the correlation between them, so as to provide a scientific basis for the development of targeted prevention and control measures and antiviral treatment programs. MethodsThe data of CD4 cell count, viral load and demographic characteristics of the newly infected patients living with HIV in Huangpu District, Shanghai in 2023 were collected and analyzed by using descriptive epidemiological method. ResultsThe mean CD4 cell count of the 67 newly identified HIV infected patients in Huangpu District was (301.22±235.19) cells·µL-1, with a mean viral load of (5.15±1.28) ×105 copies·mL-1.There were statistically significant differences in CD4 cell count and viral load among different age groups (P<0.05), but there were no statistically significant differences by gender and marital status (both P>0.05). The CD4 cell count and CD4/CD8 ratio both were negatively correlated with the lg value of viral load (r=-0.290, -0.378; P=0.027, 0.002). ConclusionThe CD4 cell counts of the newly identified HIV infected patients in Huangpu District in 2023 were generally low, the proportion of patients with high viral load was high, but the risk for elderly infected with HIV was high. The elderly have gradually become the key population for AIDS prevention and control in Huangpu District. It is recommended to expand HIV screening in the elderly to reduce the risk of HIV transmission and increase the rate of early detection and treatment.

Objective:To investigate the application value of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in perioperative period of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).Method:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 1 181 patients undergoing LSG in the Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Affiliated with the Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2021 to December 2023 were collected. There were 242 males and 939 females, aged (31±8)years. Of 1 181 patients, 598 cases receiving routine perioperative care were divided into the control group, and 583 cases receiving perioperative care with ERAS were divided into the ERAS group. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and the independent sample t test was used for comparison between the groups. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and the Mann-Whitney rank sum test was used for comparison between the groups. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or percentages, and the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability were used for comparison between the groups. Repeated measurement data were analyzed using the repeated ANOVA, with baseline scores as covariates. Simple effects analysis was conducted in case of interaction, and multiple comparisons were adjusted using the Bonferroni method. Results:(1) Postoperative outcomes. The numerical rating scale (NRS) scores for pain at immediate return to the ward and on the third postoperative mornings changed from 5.35±0.93 to 2.57±0.83 in the control group, versus changed from 3.15±0.93 to 0.70±0.65 in the ERAS group, showing significant difference between the two groups ( Ftime=66.58, Fgroup=1 765.85, Finteraction=6.90, P<0.05). After adjusting NRS scores for pain at immediate return to the ward as the baseline, results of simple effects analysis showed that on the third postoperative mornings, the NRS scores in the ERAS group were lower by 1.89, 1.53, and 1.76 respectively compared to the control group ( P<0.05). Cases with nausea at immediate return to the ward and on the third postoperative mornings changed from 497 to 97 in the control group, versus changed from 198 to 11 in the ERAS group, showing signifi-cant difference between the two groups ( χ2=294.45, 398.76,209.39, 73.00, P<0.05). Cases with vomiting at immediate return to the ward and on the third postoperative mornings changed from 243 to 41 in the control group, versus changed from 51 to 2 in the ERAS group, showing significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=160.54, 149.37, 71.76, 35.69, P<0.05). The duration of postoperative hospital stay was (3.22±0.65)days in the control group, versus (2.17±0.49)days in the ERAS group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( t=-11.89, P<0.05). (2) Complications. The incidence of cases with dehydration within postoperative 30 days was 0.50%(3/598) in the control group, versus 0.69%(4/583) in the ERAS group, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). None of patient in the control group and the ERAS group experienced bleeding, gastric leakage, intra-abdominal infection, and no patient had unplanned secondary surgery within postoperative 30 days. Conclusions:ERAS in perioperative period of LSG are safe and feasible. Compared to routine care, ERAS can significantly reduce postoperative pain, decrease the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, shorten the postoperative hospital stay, and do not increase the rate of postoperative complications or unplanned secondary surgeries within postoperative 30 days.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of fall risk in elderly patients with lung cancer, explore the latent classes and influencing factors of fall risk in elderly patients with lung cancer, and provide reference for the formulation of individualized nursing measures to prevent falls.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2022 to March 2023. A total of 410 elderly patients with lung cancer in the oncology department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China were selected by convenience sampling using the general situation questionnaire. The general data questionnaire, the Chinese version of Groningen Frailty Indicator, Morse Fall Scale and Tinetti Performance Oriented Mobility Assessment were used to investigate. The latent classes of fall risk were analyzed, and the factors influencing the latent classes of fall risk were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance, Chi-square test and multiple Logistic regression.Results:A total of 404 valid questionnaires were collected, with age of (67.10 ± 7.24) years old, including 293 males and 111 females. The fall risk score of 404 elderly patients with lung cancer was 0-110 (40.35 ± 20.18) points, and the fall risk could be divided into three latent classes, including cognitive deficiency (8.42%, 34/404), mobility limitation (40.10%, 162/404) and limb weakness (51.49%, 208/404). Multiple logistic regression results showed that marital status, monthly income level, diabetes history and gait ability were the influencing factors of fall risk in elderly patients with lung cancer ( OR values were 0.180-37.681, all P<0.05). Conclusions:There is heterogeneity in the risk of falls in elderly patients with lung cancer. According to individual characteristics, medical staff can propose targeted measures to prevent falls and improve the safety and quality of life of elderly patients with lung cancer.

Objective:To analyze the functional differences between virus-specific CD4 +T cells and CD8 +T cells in patients infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) who develop liver injury and those who do not. Methods:45 cases of EBV infections were enrolled, including 28 cases developing liver injuries and 17 that did not. Mononuclear cells from peripheral blood were isolated. CD4 +T cells and CD8 +T cells were purified and cultured using recombinant EBV core antigen 2 (EBNA2) for 96 h with stimulation. The CCK-8 method was used to detect cell proliferation. Flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of CD4 +T cells and CD8 +T cells. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of CD4 +T cells secreting cytokines and CD8 +T cells secreting molecular toxicity. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the mRNA levels of transcription factors and molecular toxicity in CD4 +T cell subsets. Flow cytometry was used to detect the immune checkpoints at molecular levels in CD8 +T cells. The inter-group comparison was performed using a t-test or Mann-Whitney test. Results:There was no statistically significant difference ( P > 0.05) in the proliferation proportion of peripheral blood mononuclear cells, CD4 +T cells, and CD8 +T cells after stimulation with recombinant EBNA2 between the EBV-infected non-liver injury group and the infected liver injury group ( P > 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the proportion of CD4 +T cells secreting related cytokines and the mRNA levels of transcription factors after stimulation with recombinant EBNA2 between the EBV-infected non-liver injury group and the infected liver injury group ( P > 0.05).The levels of perforin secreted by CD8 +T cells and granzyme B after stimulation with recombinant EBNA2 were higher in the EBV infection-induced liver injury group than those in the non-liver injury group [(75.51±23.33) pg/ml vs. (58.99±18.39) pg/ml, P = 0.017] [(117.8±44.55) pg/ml vs. (90.22±34.21) pg/ml, P = 0.034]. The mRNA levels of Fas ligand and tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand in CD8 +T cells in the liver injury group caused by EBV infection were approximately 1.5 and 1.2 times higher than those in the non-liver injury group, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.001), but there was no statistically significant difference in the proportional expression of programmed cell death-1 and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 in CD8 +T cells between the EBV-infected non-liver injury group and infected liver injury group ( P > 0.05) Conclusion:Patients with liver injury caused by EBV infection have strong virus-specific CD8 + T cell toxic effects, which may mediate EBV-induced liver injury.

Bariatric surgery may cause intestinal microecological environment imbalance due to changes in gastrointestinal anatomy.Some patients may have compli-cations,even regain weight.Probiotics can act on intestinal mucosa,epithelium and gut-associated lymphoid tissue to improve the intestinal microecological environment of obese patients after bariatric surgery.Probiotics can promote the production of short-chain fatty acids,stimulate intestinal cells to release glucagon-like peptide-1,peptide tyrosine-tyrosine,insulin and other endocrine hormones,affect the function of the central nervous system through the gut-brain axis,make patients after bariatric surgery feel full,and reduce blood sugar at the same time.Probiotics can produce lactic acid,acetic acid and lactase,to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria and to improve gastrointestinal symptoms of patients after bariatric surgery.Probiotics can activate the AMP-activated protein kinase signaling pathway,improve lipid metabolism,and promote the recovery of symptom indicators of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease after bariatric surgery.Probiotics can regulate the release of neurotransmitters or metabolites by the microbiota through the gut-brain axis to affect brain activity and behavior,thus helping patients improve negative emotions after bariatric surgery.This article describes the intestinal microecological environment of obese patients and mechanism of the change after bariatric surgery and summarizes the effects and possible mechanisms of probiotics in improving the intestinal microecological environment of obese patients after bariatric surgery,to provide references for promoting the clinical application of probiotics.
