Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and the antimicrobial resistance of respiratory tract infection in children in Baoshan City,guide clinicians to rationally apply antibiotics,and improve the success rate of treatment.Methods Retrospective analysis of the distribution characteristics and drug sensitivity results of 1039 strains of pathogens detected in pediatric inpatients of hospitals from 2019 to 2022 was conducted.Results The main pathogens causing the respiratory infections in children in Baoshan area were Streptococcus pneumoniae,Escherichia coli,Staphylococcus aureus,Haemophilus influenzae,Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Analysis of the drug sensitivity results of pathogenic bacteria with a detected quantity greater than 80 revealed that Streptococcus pneumoniae had a high resistance rate to erythromycin,clindamycin,and compound sulfamethoxazole.The resistance rates of penicillin,ceftriaxone,cefotaxime,and meropenem were P<0.05,and the difference was statistically significan.Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)was11.1%;CTX/CRO-R-ECO,CTX/CRO-R-KPN,CR-ECO and CR-KPN were lower than the 2021 ISPED level;The P.aeruginosa drug resistance rate and H.influenzae's ampicillin and ampicillin/sulbactam were higher than the 2021 ISPED level.Conclusion The treatment of respiratory tract infections in pediatric patients faces great challenges.The non-standard use of empirical medication has led to the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria,and the selection of anti infection treatment drugs is limited.Therefore,it is imperative to grasp the epidemic characteristics and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria in the local area.

BACKGROUND:With the application and development of 3D printing technology in medicine,orthopedic internal fixation surgery has become precise and individualized.The equal-scale fracture model obtained by 3D printing technology was simulated and planned before surgery,realizing the leap from traditional 2D images to more vivid and detailed three-dimensional objects.It allows the surgeon to understand the fracture type in advance and rehearse the reduction sequence,so as to realize the individualized implementation of fracture surgery,optimize the surgical process,bring better postoperative recovery and less surgical complications. OBJECTIVE:To compare clinical efficacy of three 3D printed models combined with computerized virtual repositioning technology to assist incision reduction bone plate internal fixation and traditional incision reduction bone plate internal fixation in the treatment of Robinson II B2 clavicle fracture. METHODS:Eighty patients with Robinson II B2 clavicle fracture were randomly divided into trial group(n=40)and control group(n=40).In the trial group,three kinds of 3D printing models(affected clavicle fracture model,computer simulation clavicle fracture reduction model,clavicle mirror model of healthy side)combined with computer virtual reduction technology were used for preoperative in vitro surgery rehearsal.Finally,3D printing was used for clavicle mirror model of healthy side to advance bending and select bone plates for internal fixation.In the control group,open reduction plate internal fixation was applied.The time from admission to surgery,intraoperative blood loss,operation time,frequency of fluoroscopy,number of bends of the bone plate,fracture healing time,complications,and visual analog scale score and Constant score before and after surgery were compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The time from admission to operation in the trial group was greater than that in the control group(P<0.05).Operation time,intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency and bending times of the bone plate in the trial group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The trial group had faster fracture healing and fewer complications(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss between the two groups(P>0.05).Constant score of the two groups had an increasing trend with time(F=613.50,P<0.001),but the difference between the groups was not statistically significant(F=0.08,P=0.78),and there was no interaction between the measurement times and the group assignment(F=0.27,P=0.66).The visual analog scale score decreased with time(F=1 149.55,P<0.001),but there was no significant difference between groups(F=0.02,P=0.88),and there was no interaction between the number of measurements and the group assignment(F=1.02,P=0.36).The results show that the use of 3D printed model combined with computer virtual reduction technology for preoperative rehearsal can shorten the operation time,reduce the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency and the times of bone plate bending,and have the advantages of faster fracture healing,fewer complications,and similar functional recovery to the traditional incision reduction bone plate internal fixation.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of free fibular great toe flap in reconstruction of digit-tip defect with only anastomosis of artery.Methods:From February 2022 to January 2023, a total of 8 patients with digit-tip defects received reconstruction surgery using free flap of fibular great toe with anastomosis of artery only in the Department of Hand Surgery, Shunde Heping Surgical Hospital. The patients were 5 males and 3 females, with an average age of 33 (14-55) years old. Two defected digit-tips were of thumbs, 3 of index fingers, 2 of middle fingers and 1 of little finger. The digit-tip defects were 1.5 cm×0.5 cm-2.0 cm×1.2 cm in size. During the surgery, a perforator flap of fibular great toe with fibular plantar digital artery and a branch of digital nerve was harvested. And the artery and nerve carried by the flap were anastomosed to the digital artery arch and nerve of the recipient site. No reflux vein was included in the free flap due to the small size of flap. The donor sites were directly closed. Postoperative anti-infection, anti-coagulation, and anti-vasospasm were offered. Scheduled postoperative follow-ups were conducted at outpatient clinics after surgery.Results:All flaps survived smoothly without any vascular compromise. All patients were included in the follow-up with an average of 7.1 (5-13) months. At the final follow-up, the appearances of the digit-tips were full and beautiful, with recovered finger print and good stability of flaps, as well as normal sweating. All flaps had good sensation recovery, with TPD at 6.0 mm to 7.5 mm and at 6.7 mm in average. There was no significant difference in skin temperature between the donor sites and the healthy sides. According to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, 7 patients were rated as excellent and 1 as good.Conclusion:The clinical effect is excellent for the free flap of fibular great toe with anastomosis of artery only in the reconstruction of digit-tip defect. It not only has satisfactory reconstruction but also restores the appearance and function of the flap donor site. Worth promoting and applying in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the consistency between colonoscopic Boston bowel preparation score and the bowel cleanliness evaluated by pre-endoscopy naked eye faecal observation,so as to provide a guidance on bowel preparation.Methods From September 2018 to June 2019,convenience sampling method was used to select 150 inpatients who underwent colonoscopy in the Department of Gastroenterology of a tertiary hospital in Guangzhou as the research objects.Before colonoscopy,the compound polyethylene glycol electrolyte powder was taken orally according to the bowel preparation plan for cleaning the colorectum.Before the colonoscopic examination,the naked eye observation method by nurses was used to observe the transparency of the excreta to evaluate the cleanliness of colorectum.Then the colorectal cleanliness was evaluated by endoscope by the operator using the Boston bowel preparation assessment scale(BBPS)during colonoscopy.Results A total of 145 patients completed the study.The cleanliness of bowel preparation was 93.1%with the naked eye observation and 88.27%with colonoscopy.There was no significant difference between the two assessment methods in judging the effectiveness of bowel preparation(P<0.05).The sensitivity of naked eye observation in judging bowel preparation was 96.10%with a 29.41%of specificity.The positive predictive value was 91.11%,and the negative predictive value was 50%(Kappa=0.310,P<0.001).Conclusion The naked eye observation and evaluation method for bowel preparation has advantages in high sensitivity,low specificity,high positive predictive value and low negative predictive value.It can be used as a preliminary evaluation method for cleanliness of colorectum before colonoscopy.

Approximately 140 million people worldwide are homozygous carriers of APOE4 (ε4), a strong genetic risk factor for late onset familial and sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD), 91% of whom will develop AD at earlier age than heterozygous carriers and noncarriers. Susceptibility to AD could be reduced by targeted editing of APOE4, but a technical basis for controlling the off-target effects of base editors is necessary to develop low-risk personalized gene therapies. Here, we first screened eight cytosine base editor variants at four injection stages (from 1- to 8-cell stage), and found that FNLS-YE1 variant in 8-cell embryos achieved the comparable base conversion rate (up to 100%) with the lowest bystander effects. In particular, 80% of AD-susceptible ε4 allele copies were converted to the AD-neutral ε3 allele in human ε4-carrying embryos. Stringent control measures combined with targeted deep sequencing, whole genome sequencing, and RNA sequencing showed no DNA or RNA off-target events in FNLS-YE1-treated human embryos or their derived stem cells. Furthermore, base editing with FNLS-YE1 showed no effects on embryo development to the blastocyst stage. Finally, we also demonstrated FNLS-YE1 could introduce known protective variants in human embryos to potentially reduce human susceptivity to systemic lupus erythematosus and familial hypercholesterolemia. Our study therefore suggests that base editing with FNLS-YE1 can efficiently and safely introduce known preventive variants in 8-cell human embryos, a potential approach for reducing human susceptibility to AD or other genetic diseases.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of oleanolic acid （OA） on water metabolism in mice with water-dampness retention caused by spleen deficiency and the mechanism. MethodThe 60 SPF Kunming （KM） mice were randomized into blank group （n=10） and modeling group （n=50）. Through long-term living in damp place and irregular diet， water-dampness retention caused by spleen deficiency was induced in modeling mice. Then the model mice were randomly classified into model group， natural recovery group， and low-dose， medium-dose， and high-dose OA groups. The mice in the blank group， model group， and natural recovery group were given （ig） 10 mL·kg^-1·d^-1 normal saline， and mice in the low-dose， medium-dose， and high-dose OA groups received 50， 100， 200 mg·kg^-1·d^-1 OA， respectively. The intervention lasted 7 days. Before and after modeling and administration， the general conditions of the mice were observed and body weight of mice was measured. The water content in feces and tissues was detected with the oven-drying method， and water load index and organ coefficient were measured with the weighing method. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was employed to detect the urinary D-xylose excretion， serum gastrin （GAS）， total protein （TP）， albumin （ALB）， total cholesterol （TC）， high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， antidiuretic hormone （AVP）， aquaporin 1 （AQP1） in renal medulla， and liver Na⁺-K⁺-ATPase. At the same time， OA was docked with ALB， IL-6， AQP1， and Na⁺-K⁺-ATPase. ResultCompared with the blank group， the model group showed withered hair， emaciation， laziness， bradykinesia， slow weight growth， infrequent spontaneous activities， high water content in feces and tissues， low weight loss after water loading， high coefficient of each organ （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Moreover， the model group had less urinary D-xylose excretion， lower serum levels of GAS， TP， ALB， and HDL-C， higher levels of TC， LDL-C， AVP， and IL-6， lower expression of Na⁺-K⁺-ATPase in the liver， and higher expression of AQP1 in renal medulla than the blank group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The three OA groups demonstrated better general conditions， faster weight gain， more frequent spontaneous activities， lower water content in feces and tissues， larger weight loss after water loading， and lower coefficient of each organ than the model group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Moreover， compared with the model group， the three OA groups had high D-xylose excretion， high serum levels of GAS， TP， ALB， and HDL-C， low serum levels of TC， LDL-C， AVP， and IL-6， high expression of Na⁺-K⁺-ATPase in liver， and low expression of AQP1 in renal medulla （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The recovery in each OA group was better than that in natural recovery group. Molecular docking results also confirmed that OA had high binding affinity with ALB， IL-6， AQP1， and Na⁺-K⁺-ATPase. ConclusionOA can alleviate the abnormal water metabolism in mice with water-dampness retention caused by spleen deficiency， which lays a basis for its potential clinical application.

Objective:To investigate and analyse the current status of screening and management of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in six provinces and cities in China.Methods:The qualitative research method of focus group interview was adopted, based on the semi-structured interview outline, the clinical medical and disease control personnel in Tianjin, Chongqing, Gansu, Hubei, Heilongjiang, and Guangdong were interviewed. The interview transcripts were analyzed using thematic analysis, and MAXQDA analysis software was used for data management and analysis.Results:A total of 6 interviews were conducted with 49 interviewees. Forty respondents (81.6%) claimed that DKD screening was critical; 53.1% think that it was not easy for patients to obtain DKD screening services; 40.8%, 26.5% and 14.3% of the people believed that the technology of DKD screening services was moderate, simple or very simple, respectively. Of the respondents,16.3% thought that the cost of DKD screening service was relatively expensive, while 83.7% thought that the cost was inexpensive; 75.5% of the respondents believed that the patients could receive early DKD screening service. The factors of fully implementing medical reform policies, changing concepts and actively serving patients, and integrating external resources in medical and health institutions at all levels and of all types were conducive to the development of DKD screening and management services. The lack of technology and personnel for DKD screening services at the grassroots level, the lack of trust in the service capabilities of grassroots medical institutions by patients, the low level of patient awareness, and the novel coronavirus infection epidemic had an adverse impact on the development of DKD screening and management services.Conclusion:The screening and management services for DKD are relatively limited in China, and there is a significant fragmentation in the management and care of diabetes and DKD.

Objective:To evaluated the options in selection of surgical procedures for treatment of the patients suffering from diabetic feet with chronic refractory wounds.Methods:From January 2020 to June 2021, 23 patients with diabetic feet complicated with refractory wounds were treated in Department of Hand Surgery, Shunde Heping Surgical Hospital. The patients were 15 males and 8 females, aged 51-86 years old and with an average age of 65 years old. All the patients had Type-II diabetes for over 5 - 22 years. Average blood glucose of the patients was found at 15.6 mmol/L on admission. Free anterolateral thigh perforator flaps (ALTPF) were used for reconstruction of the wound of diabetic feet in 19 patients, 2 patients received vascular bypass surgery and 2 had amputations. Regular outpatient follow-up were conduct on all patients after surgery.Results:Follow-up time lasted for 8 to 30 months, 12 months in average. At the last follow-up, the donor and recipient sites healed well in the 19 patients who received flap reconstruction, without an infection, necrosis and wound recurrence. Pains were significantly relieved after the surgery in the 2 patients who received vascular bypass surgery, and wounds all healed well after symptomatic treatment and dressing change without recurrence of wounds at the last follow-up. Average Maryland score of foot function was 84 for the patients who had limb salvage, and 2 patients were in excellent and 19 in good at the last follow-up. The 2 patients who had amputation successfully survived through the perioperative period, and the wounds healed well at the last follow-up.Conclusion:The treatment is complicated in the patient suffering from diabetic foot with chronic refractory wounds due to factors such as advanced age, co-existing and complicated underlying diseases together with the complex wounds. Most patients can achieve good prognosis in wound treatment of free flap transfer or vascular bypass surgery. However, a limb salvage is recommended with caution for the patients who have severe infections and dry gangrene.

Objective:To analyze the detection rate and related factors of depressive and anxious symptoms comorbidity in 2021 and 2022.Methods:Based on the results of the Seventh National Population Census in 2021,the residents of 32 provinces,municipalities,and autonomous regions were sampled by gender and age.The gender and age of the samples were in line with the characteristics of China's population.A face-to-face interview survey was conducted in community residents in each province in 2021(n=11 005)and 2022(n=30 421)with the Gen-eralized Anxiety Questionnaire-7 and Patient Health Questionnaire-9.Results:The detection rates of depressive and anxious symptoms comorbidity were 10.67％in 2021 and 11.72％in 2022.The prevalence of depressive and anxi-ety comorbidity were higher in male,younger(age≤17 years),divorced,lower BMI(BMI＜18.5 kg/m2),higher education(graduate),students,and residents with chronic medical history(Ps＜0.001).In 2022,32.06％of people with depressive symptoms had anxious symptoms and 47.62％of people with anxious symptoms had depressive symptoms.Conclusion:In 2021 and 2022,the detection rates of depressive and anxious symptoms comorbidity were both about 10％,and half of patients with anxious symptoms were accompanied by depressive symptoms,So atten-tion should be paid to the comorbidity of depression and anxiety symptoms.

Objective:To construct an early warning nursing model for patients with lung cancer who undergoing peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) chemotherapy and apply it to clinical practice to improve quality of nursing services.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 144 lung cancer patients who received PICC chemotherapy in Xinyang Central Hospital from May 2019 to May 2021 were selected. They were divided into the control group and the observation group by the random number method, with 72 cases in each group. The control group adopted the routine specialized nursing model, while the observation group adopted the early warning nursing model. After the intervention, the PICC knowledge and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results:PICC knowledge mastery in the observation group was better than that in the control group and patient satisfaction was higher than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The early warning nursing mode of lung cancer patients undergoing PICC chemotherapy can improve knowledge mastery of patients and nursing satisfaction, which has certain promotion value.
