Objective:To analyze the risk factors for central venous catheter-associated bloodstream infection in patients with emergency hemorrhagic shock.Methods:Patients with hemorrhagic shock and central venous catheterization admitted to the emergency department of Shanghai First People's Hospital from June 2016 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into infected group and non-infected group according to whether catheter-related bloodstream infection occurred. The puncture site samples and catheter tip samples of infected patients were collected for etiological detection and drug sensitivity test. The difference of baseline data between the two groups was analyzed, and the relationship between central venous catheter-associated infection and influencing factors was analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.Results:A total of 249 patients were included in this study, including 54 patients in the infected group and 195 patients in the non-infected group. There were significant differences in age, catheterization position, ultrasound-guided puncture, acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ) score, catheter retention time and application of broad-spectrum antibiotics between the infected group and the non-infected group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age, femoral vein catheterization, no ultrasound-guided puncture, high APACHEⅡ score, long catheter indent time and application of broad-spectrum antibiotics were risk factors for central venous catheter-associated bloodstream infection. Among the 54 infected patients, Staphylococcus epidermidis accounted for 44.4%, followed by Escherichia coli accounted for 24.1% and fungus accounted for 11.1%. The resistance rate of gram-positive cocci to vancomycin was the lowest (3.4%) followed by tetracycline (34.5%), and the highest resistance rate was amoxicillin (100.0%). The resistance rates of gram-negative bacilli to amikacin and ceftriaxone were relatively high, both of which were 94.7%. Conclusions:The risk factors for central venous catheter-related blood stream infection in patients with emergency hemorrhagic shock included advanced age, femoral vein catheterization, no ultrasound-guided puncture, high APACHEⅡ score, long catheter retention time and use of broad-spectrum antibiotics. The common pathogenic bacteria were Staphylococcus epidermidis and Escherichia coli.

Based on the principles of ergonomics,simulating the structure of the human skeleton,an exoskeleton device was designed that can effectively transmit the gravity of the lead coat to the ground from all parts of the human body,which can transfer the weight of the lead clothing without affecting the operation of the interventional doctor and ensuring the doctor's activity,so as to reduce the weight borne by the surgeon and alleviate occupational fatigue.The lead clothing support exoskeleton device included an upper support part and a lower support part.The upper support part and the lower support part were connected through a lumbar support frame,taking into account the advantages of practicality,wearing portability,lightweight,joint flexibility etc..The wearer can easily perform actions such as leg lifting,turning,bending over,etc.,as well as sit down and rest without removing lead or protective clothing.From the perspective of clinical interventional doctors,the device skillfully applies the mechanical support structure to realize the effective conduction of gravity,reduce the burden of doctors,increase the comfort of the wearer and improve work efficiency,which has practical and clinical application value.

Objective:To report single-center clinical experience with endovascular recanalization for non-acute symptomatic intracranial vertebral artery occlusion, to assess the feasibility and safety of endovascular recanalization and to propose the benefit group for selected patients.Methods:From January 2019 to December 2021, 92 patients with non-acute symptomatic intracranial vertebral artery occlusion who underwent endovascular recanalization were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into three groups (low, medium and high-risk group) according to occlusion length, occlusion duration, occlusion nature, calcification of the occlusion segment, and occlusion angulation, and the indicators of patients in each group were analyzed, including the general baseline data of the patients, surgical status and follow-up results. The technical success and perioperative complication rates of low, medium and high-risk groups were calculated. Meanwhile, the differences between three groups were evaluated using the χ2 test for trend or ANOVA analysis. Results:The overall technical success rate of endovascular recanalization was 83.7% (77/92), and the perioperative complication rate was 10.9% (10/92). Among the 3 classification groups, the recanalization success rate from the low-risk group to the high-risk group was 100%, 93.3%, 27.8%( P=0.047), and gradually decreased; while the overall perioperative complication rate was 0, 10.0%, 38.9% ( P=0.001), and gradually increased; the proportion of 90-day mRS score 0-2 was 100%, 83.3%, 22.2% ( P=0.026), and progressively decreased; 77 patients with successful recanalization were followed up, the rate of restenosis/reocclusion was 0, 17.9%, 80.0%( P=0.001), and progressively increased. Patients in the low-and intermediate-risk groups performed well with endovascular recanalization. In 88 patients (4 patients lost to follow-up), a median clinical follow-up of 13 (7, 16) months, stroke or death beyond 30 days was 17.4% (16/92). Conclusions:Endovascular recanalization is safe and feasible for reasonably selected patients with non-acute symptomatic intracranial vertebral artery occlusion, especially in low-and medium-risk groups, and it also provides an alternative to conservative therapy for patients with non-acute symptomatic intracranial vertebral artery occlusion.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of intermediate frequency pulse electrical stimulation combined with TCM directional drug penetration therapy in the treatment of patients with lumbar spinal stenosis.Methods:Randomized controlled trial. Totally 90 patients with lumbar spinal stenosis who were treated between July 2018 and December 2021 in the hospital were selected according to randomized controlled trial design, and they were divided into the two groups through the random number table method, with 45 cases in each group. The control group was given non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs+conventional intermittent traction + intermediate frequency pulse electrical stimulation, and the combined group was treated with TCM directional drug penetration therapy on the basis of the control group. Both groups were continuously treated for 1 month. The TCM syndromes were scored before and after treatment, and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the pain degree. Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were applied to assess the dysfunction degree and quality of life, and the clinical efficacy was assessed.Results:The total effective rate was 95.56% (43/45) in combined group and was 82.22% (37/45) in control group, with statistical significance ( χ2=4.05, P=0.044). The scores of lumbago pain, articular soreness, knee soreness and weakness and impaired activity and total score in combined group after treatment were lower than those in the control group ( t=18.40, 15.81, 15.40, 26.50, 59.575, P<0.01), and the JOA score was higher than that of the control group ( t=5.62, P<0.01), while the ODI score was lower than that of the control group ( t=9.43, P<0.01). The time-point effect and between-group effect of VAS score in combined group were lower than those in the control group with the extension of time ( F=240.00, 17.19, P<0.01), and there was an interaction effect between decrease and treatment method ( F=6.66, P<0.01). Conclusion:Intermediate frequency pulse electrical stimulation combined with TCM directional drug penetration therapy is helpful to relieve the pain, improve the lumbar dysfunction degree and enhance the quality of life and clinical efficacy in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of silymarin on bronchiolitis caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in mice.Methods:A mouse model of bronchiolitis was established by intranasal instillation of RSV. After successful modeling, the mice were randomly divided into a model group, a positive control group (ribavirin, 10 mg/kg), a low-dose silymarin group (25 mg/kg), a medium-dose silymarin group (50 mg/kg), and a high-dose silymarin group (100 mg/kg). In addition, a control group was established, with 12 mice in each group. The pulmonary index and RSV virus load were determined in each group of mice. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes in the lungs. The levels of interleukin-4 (IL-4), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), IL-17, and IL-10 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of helper T cells 17 (Th17) and regulatory T cells (Treg) in peripheral blood. Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), nuclear factor κB subunit p65 (NF-κB p65), and phosphorylated nuclear protein p-NF-κB p65 in lung tissue.Results:Compared with the model group, the pulmonary injury and inflammatory response were significantly improved in the medium-and high-dose silymarin groups. The pulmonary indexes were (1.27±0.17)% and (0.94±0.10)%, respectively, and the RSV virus loads were (2.65±0.19) and (2.13±0.14), respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the model group (all P<0.05). The proportion of Th17 cells in peripheral blood was (4.47±0.19)% and (3.52±0.13)%, respectively, which was significantly lower than that in the model group (all P<0.05), while the proportion of Treg cells in peripheral blood was (0.88±0.08)% and (1.33±0.12)%, respectively, which was significantly higher than that in the model group (all P<0.05). The expression levels of IL-4 and IL-17 in BALF and the protein expression levels of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway related proteins in lung tissue were significantly lower than those in the model group (all P<0.05), while the expression levels of IFN-γ, TGF-β, and IL-10 in BALF were significantly higher than those in the model group (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Silymarin can regulate immune function and inhibit inflammatory response, thereby improving airway inflammation in bronchiolitis mice. The mechanism may be related to inhibit activation of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective:To characterize the histopathological subtypes and their clinicopathological parameters of gender and onset age by common, rare and sparse primary esophageal malignant tumors (PEMT).Methods:A total of 272 437 patients with PEMT were enrolled in this study, and all of the patients were received radical surgery. The clinicopathological information of the patients was obtained from the database established by the State Key Laboratory of Esophageal Cancer Prevention & Treatment from September 1973 to December 2020, which included the clinical treatment, pathological diagnosis and follow-up information of esophagus and gastric cardia cancers. All patients were diagnosed and classified by the criteria of esophageal tumor histopathological diagnosis and classification (2019) of the World Health Organization (WHO). The esophageal tumors, which were not included in the WHO classification, were analyzed separately according to the postoperative pathological diagnosis. The χ 2 test was performed by the SPSS 25.0 software on count data, and the test standard α=0.05. Results:A total of 32 histopathological types were identified in the enrolled PEMT patients, of which 10 subtypes were not included in the WHO classification. According to the frequency, PEMT were divided into common (esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, ESCC, accounting for 97.1%), rare (esophageal adenocarcinoma, EAC, accounting for 2.3%) and sparse (mainly esophageal small cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma, etc., accounting for 0.6%). All the common, rare, and sparse types occurred predominantly in male patients, and the gender difference of rare type was most significant (EAC, male∶ female, 2.67∶1), followed with common type (ESCC, male∶ female, 1.78∶1) and sparse type (male∶ female, 1.71∶1). The common type (ESCC) mainly occurred in the middle thoracic segment (65.2%), while the rare type (EAC) mainly occurred in the lower thoracic segment (56.8%). Among the sparse type, malignant melanoma and malignant fibrous histiocytoma were both predominantly located in the lower thoracic segment (51.7%, 66.7%), and the others were mainly in the middle thoracic segment.Conclusion:ESCC is the most common type among the 32 histopathological types of PEMT, followed by EAC as the rare type, and esophageal small cell carcinoma and malignant melanoma as the major sparse type, and all of which are mainly occur in male patients. The common type of ESCC mainly occur in the middle thoracic segment, while the rare type of EAC mainly in the lower thoracic segment. The mainly sparse type of malignant melanoma and malignant fibrous histiocytoma predominately occur in the lower thoracic segment, and the remaining sparse types mainly occur in the middle thoracic segment.

Objective: To describe the clinical manifestations of central nerve system inflammatory demyelinating disease associated with anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody (MOG-IDD) in children, and to explore the clinical characteristics of the children. Methods: The clinical and laboratory characteristics of the patients diagnosed in Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University, from October 2016 to August 2018 were described, and the clinical data of the patients with unipolar and recurrent diseases were compared. Results: A total of 50 patients were included, among whom the ratio of male to female was 24:26, and the average age of onset was (6.7±3.1) years old (0.4-12.6 years old). There was no significant difference in the age of onset between boys and girls(t=0.712, P=0.480). The main symptoms included fever (31/50 cases), encephalopathy (26/50 cases) and optic neuritis (22/50 cases), etc.In the last follow-up, 26 patients (52.0%) had a monophasic course and 24 patients (48.0%) had a recurrent course.There were age differences in encephalopathy and ataxia in the first episode of [(5.7±2.8) years old vs.(8.1±3.0) years old, (5.0±2.5) years old vs. (7.7±3.0) years old](t=2.746, P=0.009; t=2.837, P=0.007). The average number of recurrence was (2.1±1.4) times (1-7 times), in which 17 cases (70.8%) of recurrence presented within 12 months and 20 cases (83.3%) of recurrence presented within 24 months after onset.Convulsion incidences of recurrent cases were 10 cases and 13 cases respectively in the first episode and recurrent courses, which were significantly higher than those of monophasic cases (4 cases, 4 cases)(χ²=7.912, P=0.005; χ²=8.365, P=0.004). All patients were sensitive to first-line immunotherapy.Seven patients with recu-rrence were treated with mycophenolatemofetil, and 17 patients with repeated first-line therapy.In the last follow-up, all patients were in remission and 2 patients had mild neurological dysfunction. Conclusions MOG-IDD can occur in childhood.Encephalopathy and optic neuritis are the most common symptoms.Encephalopathy and ataxia are more common in young children.Convulsions may indicate the course of recurrence.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effectiveness and economy of Xinmailong injection combined with basic treatment plan in the treatment of heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFREF).METHODS:In prospective randomized central group and open programmatic clinical trials,HFREF patients enrolled in 27 general hospitals during Feb.2014-Nov.2016 were divided into control group (n=253) and trial group (n=872) according to 1∶3.Control group received basic treatment,while trial group was additionally given Xinmailong injection intravenously for a treatment course (5 d) at least.Cost-effectiveness analysis was conducted from the perspective of the whole society by using the total response rate of cardiac functional grading,left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) improved data,Minnesota heart failure quality scale (MLHFQ) improved data and re-hospitalization rate.RESULTS:Total response rates of cardiac functional grading in control group and trial group were 61.54％ and 81.06％ in 3 months.The improved data of LVEF were about 3.05％ and 7.35％;MLHFQ improved data were 24.39 and 26.63,and re-hospitalization rates were 19.43％ and 10.02％.There were statistical significance in 2 groups (P＜0.05),which indicated that clinical efficacy of trial group was better than that of control group.Pharmacoeconomics results showed that cost-effectiveness ratio of positive indicators as the improved data of LVEF and chronic cardiac insufficiency QOL scale (MLHFQ) in trial group were lower than control group (189.35 vs.243.46,576.38 vs.614.29).The cost-effectiveness ratio of re-hospitalization rate and fatality rate in trial group were higher than control group (2 019.61 vs.925.42).CONCLUSIONS:Xinmailong injection combined with basic treatment plan is better than basic treatment plan in the treatment of HFREF,and shows a better economy in cost-effectiveness analysis.
