Objective　To analyze the clinical features, etiological examination, laboratory examination, imaging examination, and treatment of patients with diabetes combined with Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess (KPLA), and to provide a reference for clinical work. Methods　The clinical data of patients with diabetes combined with KPLA in the First People's Hospital of Neijiang City from 2021 to 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Results　Among the 12 patients with diabetes combined with KPLA, there were 8 males and 4 females, aged 47-74 years old. Five cases were combined with biliary tract diseases, 3 cases were combined with syphilis, and 2 cases were combined with hepatitis B.The main clinical manifestations included fever (12 cases), anorexia (10 cases), stomachache (6 cases), dizziness (2 cases), weakness (3 cases), cough and sputum (2 cases), disturbance of consciousness (2 cases), and visual impairment (1 case). Laboratory test results showed an increase in the percentage of neutrophils, glycosylated hemoglobin, transaminase, C-reactive protein, and procalcitonin, as well as a decrease in platelets and albumin. Abdominal CT findings were predominantly unilateral lesions, mostly found in the right liver, mainly manifested as mass, flaky, and nodular shadows. Two patients presented with invasive syndromes, 2 cases had lung abscesses, and 1 case had concomitant endophthalmitis and meningitis. The etiological examination of 12 patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae showed that they were all sensitive bacteria. After actively controlling blood glucose, effectively using antibiotics, and performing liver puncture and drainage, 11 cases improved, while 1 case was left with permanent blindness. Conclusions　The clinical features of diabetes combined with KPLA are atypical and easy to misdiagnose, thus early imaging and etiological examination should be performed. Aggressive glucose control, and selection of sensitive antimicrobial drugs based on drug sensitivity tests combined with liver abscess puncture and drainage can help to improve the prognosis.

Objective:To study the influence of different feeding patterns on mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in pregnant women with high viral loads who received antiviral medication during pregnancy to the day of delivery.Methods:This prospective cohort study was conducted in Beijing You'an Hospital. From January 1, 2019, to March 31, 2020, and 574 pregnant women with positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and HBV DNA>2×10 5 IU/ml were enrolled. All participants received tenofovir, telbivudine, lamivudine, or propofol tenofovir from 24-28 weeks of gestation and discontinued on the day of delivery, and their neonates were postnatally given routine passive-active immunoprophylaxis. Based on the feeding patterns, the subjects were divided into three groups: breastfeeding ( n=257), bottle-feeding ( n=241) and mixed feeding groups ( n=76). The follow-up data were obtained from liver functions and HBV DNA level of the mothers at 6-8 weeks postpartum and HBV serological markers of infants at 7-12 months. One-way ANOVA, Student-Newman-Keuls, Chi-square test or Fisher exact test, and repeated measures ANOVA were used to analyze the data. Results:The average maternal HBV DNA levels before antiviral treatment did not differ significantly between the three groups [(7.90±0.67), (7.82±0.70), (7.83±0.70) log 10 IU/ml, F=0.912, P>0.05]. HBV DNA level before delivery in the mixed feeding group was slightly lower than that in the breastfeeding and bottle-feeding group [(3.87 ±1.08) vs (4.21±1.17) and (4.30±1.28) log 10 IU/ml, q= 3.052 and 3.831, both P<0.05], while the comparison between the latter two groups showed no significant differences ( P>0.05). After delivery, HBV DNA level in the bottle-feeding group was slightly lower than that in the breastfeeding group [(7.42±0.93) vs (7.69±0.90) log 10 IU/ml, q=4.583, P<0.05]. Among 580 infants (including six pairs of twins), only one bottle-fed infant (0.4%, 1/243) was infected with HBV through MTCT, and none in the breastfeeding or mixed feeding group ( P=0.553). Conclusions:For pregnant women with high viral loads of HBV who have received antiviral medication during pregnancy, although HBV DNA level will rebound after discontinuation upon delivery, breastfeeding is recommended considering it does not increase the risk of MTCT.

Objective To analyze the hemodynamic parameters of anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from the left coronary artery sinus (AORL) based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), so as to make an evaluation of the disease. Methods A normal right coronary artery (RCA) case and an AORL case were selected. Two models were reconstructed in Mimics software and imported into ANSYS CFX software for hemodynamics simulation. The hemodynamics of normal RCA model and AORL model were compared. Results AORL model had a smaller volume flow (9.35 cm3/s), which might lead to insufficient blood supply downstream of the RCA; the pressure at the acute corner of AORL model (13.78 kPa) was lower than normal RCA model (14.9 kPa); the wall shear stress (WSS) of AORL model (12.83 Pa) was larger than that of normal RCA model (9.74 Pa); the total deformation of AORL model was relatively large. Conclusions The entrance velocity and pressure of AORL were lower than those of normal RCA, which might lead to ischemic symptoms. The research findings are of theoretical significance for the effective evaluation of ischemia and other diseases in clinic.

Objective To understand the current situation of health education contents as well as the differences in their requirements between clinical medical students and clinicians,and to provide reference for the optimization of health education curricula for medical students.Methods A stratified sampling method was adopted to select 511 medical students (303 females and 208 males) from a medical university,and the survey results of 436 clinicians (144 females and 292 males) were taken as reference.Differences in the degrees of need between clinical medical students and clinicians were compared by chi-square tests.Results There were statistical differences in needs between clinical medical students and clinicians regarding drug compliance,smoking cessation intervention,balanced diet,application of Chinese traditional rehabilitation medicine,mobile health technology education,exercise rehabilitation guidance,and theory of health promotion (P＜0.01).With regard to drug compliance,smoking cessation intervention,and exercise rehabilitation guidance,the proportions of clinical medical students' needs were just 87.1％,82.2％,and 81.2％,respectively,but for clinicians the proportions reached up to 96.3％,93.8％,and 92.8％,respectively.Whereas,there were no statistical differences for mental stress management,chronic infectious disease health education,and acute infectious disease health education (P＞0.05).Conclusion There is still a big gap between medical students and clinical doctors when it comes to the knowledge of chronic disease management and healthy lifestyles;clinical medical students have not yet realized the importance of such knowledge and skills.Therefore,the strengthening of course construction for clinical medical students is suggested.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical characteristics and genetic basis of a child affected with Glass syndrome. METHODS: Clinical manifestations and auxiliary examination results of the child were analyzed. Potential mutation was detected with next generation sequencing and validated by Sanger sequencing. RESULTS: The child has featured growth and mental retardation, delayed speech, cleft palate, crowding of teeth, and downslanting palpebral fissures. DNA sequencing revealed a de novo heterozygous missense mutation c.1166G>A (p.R389H) in exon 8 of the SATB2 gene in the child. CONCLUSION The heterozygous mutation c.1166G>A (p.R389H) of the SATB2 gene probably account for the Glass syndrome in the patient.

Objective To explore the value of controlled decompression under intracranial pressure monitoring in craniotomy of patients with severe cerebral hemorrhage.Methods One hundred and six patients with severe cerebral hemorrhage,admitted to our hospital from January 2015 to July 2018,were prospectively enrolled.These patients were divided into control group (n=5 l) and treatment group (n=55) according to their families' wishes.The patients in the control group were treated with traditional craniotomy and hematoma removal;the patients in the treatment group were treated with controlled decompression combined with craniotomy and hematoma clearance under intracranial pressure monitoring,and intracranial pressure monitoring and management were carried out after operation.The rate of bone flap acceptance during operation,incidences of complications such as re-bleeding,scalp exudation,intracranial infection and cerebral infarction after operation,rate of re-operation and Glasgow outcome scale scores 6 months after injury were compared and analyzed between the two groups.Results Five patients had midway withdrawal (2 from the control group and 3 from the treatment group),and 101 patients (49 from the control group and 52 from the treatment group) were included in the statistical analysis.The rate of bone flap acceptance in the treatment group (69.2％) was significantly higher than that in the control group (24.5％,P＜0.05).The incidences of complications such as bleeding,scalp exudation,intracranial infection and cerebral infarction (11.5％,7.7％,3.8％,and 13.5％) were significantly lower than those in the control group (30.6％,22.4％,16.3％,and 34.7％,P＜0.05).The re-operation rate (3.8％) was significantly lower than that in the control group (16.3％,P＜0.05).Good recovery rate in the treatment group (76.9％) was significantly higher than that in the control group (55.1％,P＜0.05).The mortality rate (7.7％) was significantly lower than that of the control group (22.4％,P＜0.05).Conclusion For patients with severe cerebral hemorrhage,controlled decompression under intracranial pressure monitoring combined with craniotomy and hematoma removal can significantly improve the rate of bone flap acceptance,reduce the rate of second-stage cranioplasty,reduce the incidence of complications and re-operation rate,and more effectively improve the quality of life and prognosis of patients.

Objective To explore the value of pulse index continuous cardiac output (PICCO) combined with intracranial pressure monitoring in patients with severe craniocerebral injury.Methods One hundred and thirty-eight patients with severe craniocerebral injury accepted controlling decompression surgical treatment in our hospital from February 2015 to February 2019 were prospectively chosen.According to patients' families will,postoperative application of PICCO combined with intracranial pressure monitoring for fluid management was performed in 72 patients (treatment group) and application of central venous pressure combined with intracranial pressure monitoring for fluid management was performed in 66 patients (control group).All patients were adjusted according to the monitoring results.The intracranial pressure and cerebral perfusion pressure one week after surgery,incidences of new traumatic cerebral infarction,neurogenic pulmonary edema,pulmonary infection,scalp exudation,and intracranial infection,average hospitalization days,total hospitalization costs,intensity of antimicrobial use,and Glasgow coma scale scores two weeks after operation were compared and analyzed between the two groups.Glasgow outcome scale was used to evaluate the prognoses of the patients 6 months after injury.Results There were 7 patients (3 from the control group and 4 from the treatment group) dropped out of the study due to various reasons and 131 patients (63 from the control group and 68 from the treatment group) included in the final statistical analysis;there was no significant difference in drop-out rate of the two groups (P＞0.05).The intracranial pressure in the treatment group ([14.28±2.98] mmHg) was significantly lower than that in the control group ([18.99±2.78] mmHg) and cerebral perfision pressure ([66.72±2.25] mmHg) was significantly higher than that in the control group ([52.96±3.12] mmHg) one week after operation (P＜0.05).During hospitalization,the incidences of new traumatic cerebral infarction,neurogenic pulmonary edema,pulmonary infection,scalp exudation and intracranial infection in the treatment group (8.8％,13.2％,11.8％,7.4％,and 2.9％) were significantly lower than those in the control group (22.2％,27.0％,25.4％,19.0％,and 12.7％,P＜0.05).The average hospitalization days,total hospitalization expenses and intensity of antimicrobial use in the treatment group were significantly shorter/lower than those in the control group (P＜0.05).Glasgow coma scale scores (11.88±1.78) and good recovery rate (76.5％) in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (8.06±1.12,54.0％) two weeks after operation (P＜0.05).Good recovery rate (76.5％) in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group (54.0％,P＜0.05).The mortality rate (5.9％) was significantly lower than that in the control group (17.5％,P＜0.05).Conclusion PICCO combined with intracranial pressure monitoring can effectively improve intracranial pressure,optimize cerebral perfusion,reduce complications such as traumatic cerebral infarction,neurogenic pulmonary edema,pulmonary infection and intracranial infection in patients with severe craniocerebral injury,thereby improving prognosis and reducing mortality;besides that,it can reduce patients' exposure to anti-brain infection,and the breadth and intensity of bacterial drugs can reduce the length of hospitalization and total cost of hospitalization,thereby reducing the burden of family and society.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) in the treatment of surgically resected small cell lung cancer (SCLC).Methods Clinical data of SCLC patients undergoing radical resection surgery in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from 2003 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the treatment modality,all patients were allocated into the PCI and non-PCI groups.A total of 52 patients were finally included,including 19 patients in the PCI group (5 cases of stage Ⅰ,5 stage Ⅱ and 9 stage Ⅲ) and 33 in the non-PCI group (12 cases of stage Ⅰ,5 stage Ⅱ and 16 stage Ⅲ).Kaplan-Meier method was utilized for survival analysis.Cox proportional hazards model was adopted to analyze clinical prognosis.Results The median survival time was 32.9 months in the PCI group,and 20.4 months in the non-PCI group.The 2-year overall survival rate was 72％ in the PCI group,significantly higher than 38％ in the non-PCI group (P=0.023).The median brain metastasis-free survival (BMFS) was 32.5 months in the PCI group,and 17.1 months in the non-PCI group.In the PCI group,the 2-year BMFS rate was 89％,significantly better than 53％ in the non-PCI group (P=0.026).Subgroup analysis demonstrated that PCI could confer survival benefit to patients with p-stage Ⅲ (p=0.031) rather than p-stage Ⅰ (P=0.924) and Ⅱ (P=0.094) counterparts.Multivariate analysis revealed that PCI (HR=0.330,P=0.041) was an independent prognostic factor of the overall survival.Conclusions PCI can reduce thr risk of brain metastasis rate and improve the overall survival of patients with surgically resected SCLC.
