Methods:Two thousand standard sections images werre collected from 2 000 clinical retrospective pediatric hip ultrasound videos from January 2019 to January 2021. All standard sections were annotated by the annotation team through the self-designed software based on Python 3.6 environment for image cross-media data annotation and manual review standardization process with unified standards. Among them, 1 753 were randomly selected for training the deep learning system, and the remaining 247 were used for testing the system. Further, 200 standard sections were randomly selected from the test set, and 8 clinicians independently completed the film reading annotation. The 8 independent results were then compared with the AI results.Results:The testing set consists of 247 patients. Compared with the clinician's measurements, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of diagnosing hip joint maturity was 0.865, the sensitivity was 76.19%, and the specificity was 96.9%. The AUC of AI system interpretation under Graf detailed typing was 0.575, the sensitivity was 25.90%, the specificity was 89.10%. The 95% LoA of α-angle determined by Bland-Altman method, of -4.7051° to 6.5948° ( Bias -0.94, P<0.001), compared with clinicians' measurements. The 95% LoA of β-angle, of -7.7191 to 6.8777 ( Bias -0.42, P=0.077). Compared with those from 8 clinicians, the results of AI system interpretation were more stable, and the β-angle effect was more prominent. Conclusion:The AI system can quickly and accurately measure the Graf correlation index of standard DDH ultrasonic standard diagnosis plane.

Objective:To analyze and summarize the application and significance of the computer-assisted surgery system in precision surgery of mediastinal tumors in children.Methods:The clinical data of 54 children that underwent mediastinal tumor resection surgery in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from August 2008 to November 2021 were collected.According to whether the Hisense CAS computer-assisted surgery system was used before the operation, the patients were divided into three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction group (29 cases, 53.70%) and two-dimensional (2D) CT group (25 cases, 46.30%). The surgical indicators, postoperative hospital stay, and the incidence of surgical complications were compared between the two groups.The t-test, Mann- Whitney U test, χ2 test or Fisher′ s exact test were carried out for statistical analysis.Simulated surgery and actual surgery were compared for both 3D reconstruction and 2D CT groups. Results:There were no significant differences in gender, age, height, weight, maximum tumor diameter and tumor location between the 3D reconstruction group and 2D CT group (all P>0.05). The operation time of the 3D reconstruction group was [(125.14±41.37) min] was shorter than that of the 2D CT group [(149.24±44.53) min] ( P=0.044). The intraoperative blood loss in the 3D reconstruction group [15.00(13.50, 25.00) mL] was less than that in the 2D CT group [36.00(30.00, 75.00) mL] ( P<0.001). In addition, the indwelling time the closed thoracic drainage tube [4.00 (3.00, 5.50) d] and postoperative hospitalization days [(8.83±3.39) d] in the 3D reconstruction group were shorter than those in the 2D CT group [7.00(5.00, 11.50) d, (11.00±4.10) d] ( P=0.001, 0.038). No significant difference in postoperative complication rates was found between the 3D reconstruction group and 2D CT group ( P>0.05). The simulated operation was consistent with the actual operation in the 3D reconstruction group. Conclusions:3D reconstruction by the computer-assisted surgery system can truly reveal the anatomical relationship between tumors and surrounding organs and blood vessels, and improve the accuracy and safety of surgical resection of mediastinal tumors in children.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of infliximab(IFX)in pediatric patients with ulcerative colitis(UC).Methods:The clinical data of 17 UC patients who received IFX treatment at Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and the pediatric ulcerative colitis activity index(PUCAI)and laboratory data were compared before and after treatment to evaluate the efficacy and safety of IFX.Results:A total of 17 UC patients were included, and among them there were 9 boys and 8 girls.The age of onset was 12.1(10.7, 12.8)years old, and median age at IFX initiation was 12.5(11.8, 13.6)years old.The duration of IFX medication was 46.1(17.4, 56.9)weeks, and the times of IFX injections was 8.0(4.5, 10.5). The mean PUCAI score of the 17 UC patients at start of IFX treatment was (50.6±21.2) points, and the Mayo endoscopic score showed: ten severe activity, six moderate activity, and one mild activity.IFX efficacy analysis: the clinical response rate was 87.5%(14/16), and the clinical remission rate was 56.3%(9/16) at the 14th week.The sustained response rate was 81.8%(9/11), and the sustained remission rate was 36.4%(4/11) at the 30th week.At the 14th week of IFX treatment, PUCAI score[2.5(0, 10.0)points vs.50.0(41.3, 70.0)points] and white blood cell count[5.7(4.8, 8.6)×10 9/L vs.8.7(6.4, 13.5)×10 9/L] significantly decreased(all P<0.05), hemoglobin[(113.8±20.4)g/L vs.(99.3 ± 19.4)g/L] and albumin level[42.2(40.0, 44.4)g/L vs.36.6(28.6, 40.2)g/L] significantly increased compared with those before IFX treatment, and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). The Mayo endoscopic scores at 14 weeks of IFX treatment in 12 active UC patients showed: only 2 patients achieved mucosal healing, 5 patients had reduced from severe to moderate mucosal inflammation, and 5 patients had no improvement.Seven patients had 10 adverse events, 2 cases had 4 times acute infusion reactions, and 5 cases had 6 times infections. Conclusion:IFX is effective and relatively safe in inducing and maintaining clinical remission in pediatric UC patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features of pediatric ulcerative colitis (UC) and analyze the risk factors of disease relapse.Methods:The clinical data of 79 children with UC diagnosed in Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2016 to February 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into early relapse group and non-early relapse group according to the clinical relapse within 12 months after diagnosis. T-test, rank sum test, χ 2 test or Fisher′s exact test were used to compare the variables between the 2 groups, including the clinical features, laboratory examination results and treatments. The Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of early relapse. The cumulative relapse rate during follow-up was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Results:Among the 79 UC children, 46 were males and 33 were females, and the age of onset was 10.6 (6.4, 12.7) years. The children were mainly characterized by extensive disease (E3) and pancolitis (E4) (51/79, 65%), moderate to severe activity (48/79, 61%) and moderate to severe inflammation of colonic mucosa (71/79, 90%). Thirty-eight (48%) patients had atypical phenotype and 17 (22%) had extraintestinal manifestations. The follow-up period was 43.9 (22.8, 61.3) months, and of the 41 patients rechecked with colonoscopy, 7 (17%) had disease progression. According to Kaplan-Meier analysis, the cumulative relapse rate of the 79 cases at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years after diagnosis were 27% (21/79), 47% (37/79), 57% (45/79) and 73% (53/73), respectively. There were 45 children (57%) in early relapse group and 34 (43%) in non-early relapse group. In early relapse group, hemoglobin and mucosal healing rate were both significantly lower (105 (87, 122) vs. 120 (104, 131) g/L, 28% (7/25) vs. 7/9, Z=-2.38, χ2=4.87, both P<0.05). The rate of steroid-dependent, E3 and step-up therapy during the induction period were all significantly higher than those in non-early relapse group (11/19 vs. 1/12, 24% (11/45) vs. 6% (2/34), 29% (13/45) vs. 6% (2/34), χ2=5.67, 4.85, 6.66, all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that extraintestinal manifestations ( OR=4.33, 95% CI 1.05-17.83), E3 ( OR=8.27, 95% CI 1.47-46.46) and step-up therapy during the induction period ( OR=5.58, 95% CI 1.01-30.77) were independent risk factors for early relapse. Conclusions:Pediatric UC is usually extensive and severe, with atypical phenotype, a high rate of relapse and a risk of disease progression. Extraintestinal manifestations, E3 and step-up therapy during the induction period are independent risk factors for early relapse.

Objective:
To investigate the influence of displacement of femoral and tibial components on the biomechanics of femoral or tibial bone in coronal view.
Methods:
A series of CT and MRI of the left knee joint of a Han male volunteer was taken and a three-dimensional finite element model of the healthy knee joint was established. The femoral component and the tibial component were designed with varus 6°, varus 3°, 0°, valgus 3°, and valgus 6°, and were combined into 25 three-dimensional finite element model (FEM) of medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. A 1 000 N load was applied along the femoral mechanical axis. The von Mises cloud stress distribution was observed. Moreover, the lateral compartment load ratio, the high contact stress of cancellous bone and medial cortical bone below the tibial component, the upper surface of the polyethylene liner, and the femoral cartilage in the lateral compartment was measured. The statistically significant indicators compared with the neutral position (0° varus or valgus of the tibia and the femoral prosthesis, and 5° posterior slope of tibia prosthesis) were identified by scatter plots to find the dense and sparse areas of point items. The optimal position of the femoral component and the tibial component was determined by the number of items with statistical significance in the sparse area.
Results:
When the femoral component was placed at 0° position, there was no significant difference in the high contact stress of cancellous bone below the tibial component in the five groups. When the femoral component was placed at 0° position, the tibial component was 6° varus or 6° valgus and the stress was increased by 9.21±3.38 MPa and 9.08±4.13 MPa (

Objective To explore the prognostic values of telomerase reverse transcriptase promoter (TERTp) mutation and 1p/19q co-deletion in newly-diagnosed O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter un-methylated/isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wild-type glioblastoma multiform (GBM). Methods A total of 82 patients pathologically newly-diagnosed MGMT promoter un-methylated/IDH wild-type GBM, admitted to our hospitals from March 2016 to November 2018, were included in this study. TERTp mutations (TERTp wild-type and TERTp mutation [C228 mutation and C250 mutation]) in GBM specimens were detected by PCR sequencing, 1p/19q co-deletion in GBM specimens was detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and clinical data, adverse reactions and prognoses of patients with different molecular typing were compared. Results There were 33 patients in the TERTp wild type group with mean age of 48 years, and 49 patients in the TERTp mutation group with mean age of 59 years; the difference of age was significant (P<0.05); there were no statistical differences in gender distribution, Karnofsky performance status (KPS) scores, tumor sites and surgical resection degrees between the two groups (P>0.05). There were 8 patients with 1p/19q co-deletion and 74 patients without 1p/19q co-deletion; no significant differences in above clinical parameters were noted between the two groups. There were no statistically significant differences in the incidences of bone marrow suppression, digestive tract response and fatigue, disease progression rate, or survival rate between patients from TERTp wild type group and TERTp mutation group, and between patients with 1p/19q co-deletion and patients without 1p/19q co-deletion (P>0.05). No significant differences in above clinical parameters, disease progression rate, and survival rate were noted between patients with C228 mutation and C250 mutation (P>0.05). Conclusion TERTp typing and 1p/19q co-deletion status do not have prognostic value in newly-diagnosed MGMT un-methylated/IDH wild-type GBM patients; patients with TERTp mutations have older age than wild-type patients; patients with C250 mutation trend to have higher survival rate than those with C228 mutation.

Objective To study the current status of catheter - related thrombosis(CRT)in Chinese children through a retrospective analysis of the inpatients in the Department of Medicine,Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University. Methods The clinical data of the inpatients with CRT from November 2010 to November 2013 were collected retrospectively,and the causes,clinical symptoms,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis were ana-lyzed. Results There were 42 cases of children with CRT in Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University. Among the cases,the male to female ratio was 1. 0:0. 5;the median age of onset was 88(2 - 186)months with ﹤ 1 year old counted for 16. 7%(7 / 42 cases)and 13 - 14 years old counted for 11. 9%(5 / 42 cases);the distri-bution differences between the male and the female age were not significant(P = 0. 826). The median time from cathe-terization to CRT onset was 9(1 - 81)days,0 - 10 days after catheterization was the peak of onset(52. 5% ,21 / 40 ca-ses)followed by 10 - 20 days(35. 0% ,14 / 40 cases). The protopathy was usually hematologic tumor,kidney disease or deep fungal infection. Slightly more cases developed CRT on the right side(57. 1% ,24 / 42 cases)than on the left side (38. 1% ,18 / 42 cases). All cases were diagnosed by using B - ultrasound,of whom 28. 6%(12 / 42 cases)were symp-tom - free. After being diagnosed,7. 1%(3 / 42 cases)were treated with conservative methods such as immobilization of the affected limbs and hot compress;7. 1%(3 / 42 cases)had catheter removed;anticoagulant and/ or thrombolytics after catheter removal used in 33. 3% patients(14 / 42 cases). After 1 week,22 cases were reviewed,of whom 54. 5%(12 / 22 cases)had thrombosis reduced(all with intervention),thrombosis growing in 22. 7% patients(5 / 22 cases), and thrombosis did not change in 22. 7% patients(5 / 22 cases). Three cases needed re - catheterization after catheter removal,and all of 3 cases had CRT recurrences(100% ). Conclusions CRT is more common among infants and senior children. CRT usually develops within 20 days after catheterization. Children with hematologic tumor,kidney disease or deep fungal infection are more likely to have CRT. Routine ultrasound test should be conducted to monitor CRT in catheterized children. Once CRT is diagnosed,patients need to be treated with anticoagulants and/ or thrombo-lytics. Catheter should also be removed if necessary. Recatheterization can result in CRT recurrence.
