Objective:
To understand the status and related factors of knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) on vision health among young children s parents in Bao an District, Shenzhen, so as to provide reference for further controlling myopia and promoting children s visual health.
Methods:
From May 16th to 26th, 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to conduct an online questionnaire survey on 7 666 parents of kindergarten children across 41 kindergartens in a street of Bao an District, Shenzhen. The t-test, variance analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the related factors of KAP on vision health among children s parents.
Results:
The pass rates of parental vision KAP and overall assessment were 25.10%, 98.49 %, 71.18% and 58.26%, respectively. The results of the multiple linear regression analysis showed that only fathers with myopia, only mothers with myopia, both parents with myopia, children in the bottom classes, middle classes, senior classes, and pre school had higher standardized scores for KAP on vision health among parents ( β=0.08, 0.11, 0.16, 0.17, 0.16, 0.16, 0.05, P <0.05), compared to both parents without myopia and children in daycare classes. Parents of young children with myopia, and who didn t know their children s visual acuity and their own visual acuity had a lower KAP standardized scores ( β=-0.02, -0.04, -0.05 , P< 0.05).
Conclusions
Young children s parents in Bao an District hold a positive attitude towards vision health, but are lack of knowledge and practice. It is imperative to transmit accurate information and concepts about children s vision health to parents in a targeted manner. In particular, knowledge and guidance should be strengthened for children s parents.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of Xiaoji Hufei Formula in protecting children with close contact exposure to influenza, and to provide reference and evidence-based support for better clinical prevention and treatment of influenza in children. MethodsA multicenter, prospective, non-randomized, parallel, controlled trial was conducted from October 2021 to May 2022 in five hospitals, including Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. Confirmed influenza cases and influenza-like illness (ILI) cases were collected, and eligible children with close contact exposure to these cases were recruited in the outpatient clinics. According to whether the enrolled close contacts were willing to take Xiaoji Hufei formula for influenza prevention, they were assigned to the observation group (108 cases) or the control group (108 cases). Follow-up visits were conducted on days 7 and 14 after enrollment. The primary outcomes were the incidence of ILI and the rate of laboratory-confirmed influenza. Secondary outcomes included traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) symptom score scale for influenza, influenza-related emergency (outpatient) visit rate, influenza hospitalization rate, and time to onset after exposure to influenza cases. ResultsA total of 216 participants were enrolled, with 108 in the observation group and 108 in the control group. Primary outcomes: (1) Incidence of ILI: The incidence was 12.0% (13/108) in the observation group and 23.1% (25/108) in the control group, with the observation group showing a significantly lower incidence (χ2=4.6, P<0.05). (2) Influenza confirmation rate: 3.7% (4/108) in the observation group and 4.6% (5/108) in the control group, with no statistically significant difference. Secondary outcomes: (1) TCM symptom score scale: after onset, nasal congestion and runny nose scores differed significantly between the two groups (P<0.05), while other symptoms such as fever, sore throat, and cough showed no significant differences. (2) Influenza-related emergency (outpatient) visit rate: 84.6% (11 cases) in the observation group and 96.0% (24 cases) in the control group, with no significant difference. (3) Time to onset after exposure: The median onset time after exposure to index patients was 7 days in the observation group and 4 days in the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). ConclusionIn previously healthy children exposed to infectious influenza cases under unprotected conditions, Xiaoji Hufei formula prophylaxis significantly reduced the incidence of ILI. Xiaoji Hufei Formula can be recommended as a specific preventive prescription for influenza in children.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the dynamic disinfection effect of the upper-room 222 nm ultraviolet radiation on the air in different areas of the emergency department, and to provide references for a new solution of air disinfection that man-machine coexisted in the medical and healthcare institutions. MethodsThe upper-room 222 nm ultraviolet radiation air sterilizers were installed at a height of 2.3‒2.6 m from the ground in the observation room, computed tomography (CT) scanning room, rescue room and consulting room of the emergency department in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University . The test area was divided into a 222 nm ultraviolet group and a control group according to whether the 222 nm ultraviolet germicidal air disinfection was conducted or not. The experimental group started air disinfection at8:00 a.m., and the air sampling was conducted from 9:00 a.m. to 16:00 p.m., with a 10 min sampling interval of every 1 hour. While the control group only collected air sample with the same air sampling method used in the experimental group, without air disinfection. The air microbial sampler with six-level sieve impingement was used for the air sampling, and the differences in the total number of airborne bacterial colonies were compared between the two groups. ResultsA total of 128 air samples were collected in the trial, of which 64 were from the experimental group and 64 from the control group. The total number of airborne bacterial colonies in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group (all P<0.001), and was maintained at a lower level throughout the entire period. The killing rate of 222 nm ultraviolet radiation to airborne microorganisms was approximately 55.76% to 76.33% in different sampling areas. The qualified rates of the total number of dynamic airborne bacterial colonies in the observation room, rescue room and consulting room were improved from 12.50%, 37.50% and 25.00% to 81.25%, 100.00% and 100.00%, respectively (all P<0.001). Over 62.50% of the time, the air quality in the consulting room and CT room in the 222 nm ultraviolet group met the environment standards for airborne bacterial colony criteria of class Ⅰ or class Ⅱ. ConclusionThe upper-room222 nm ultraviolet radiation germicidal disinfection can effectively reduce the total number of airborne bacterial colonies and improve the environment for emergency department, and the continuous using of it is helpful for keeping the air safe and clean.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of midazolam and dexmedetomidine/propofol for the sedation of critically ill patients undergoing mechanical ventilation, and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS Retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Clinical trials. gov, China Journal Full Text Database, Chinese Science and Technology Journal Database, Wanfang database and China Biomedical Literature Database, the data on the efficacy and safety of midazolam and dexmetomidine/propofol for the sedation of critically ill patients undergoing mechanical ventilation were collected from the establishment of the database to March 31, 2023. After extracting data from clinical studies that met the inclusion criteria, the meta-analysis was conducted by using the RevMan 5.3 statistical software. RESULTS A total of 31 literature were included, with a total of 2 765 patients. Results of meta-analysis showed that the mechanical ventilation time [MD=14.13, 95%CI (13.75, 14.52), P<0.000 01] and the length of hospitalization in the intensive care unit [MD=0.92, 95%CI (0.54, 1.30), P<0.000 01] of patients in the midazolam group was longer than dexmedetomidine/ propofol group. The incidence of bradycardia in midazolam group was lower dexmedetomidine/propofol group [OR=0.60, 95%CI (0.41, 0.90), P=0.01], but there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of hypotension between the two groups [OR=0.69, 95%CI (0.47, 1.01), P=0.06]. The incidence of delirium [OR=3.88, 95%CI (2.74, 5.49), P<0.000 01], ventilator- associated pneumonia [OR=2.32, 95%CI (1.19, 4.51), P=0.01], and respiratory depression [OR=5.70, 95%CI (3.09, 10.52), P<0.000 01] in midazolam group were higher than dexmedetomidine/propofol group. CONCLUSIONS Compared with dexmedetomidine/propofol, midazolam increases patients’ mechanical ventilation time and the length of hospitalization in the intensive care unit in terms of efficacy, and increases the risk of delirium and pulmonary complications in terms of safety, but has a smaller cardiovascular impact.

Journal of Apoplexy and Nervous Diseases 2023;40(10):908-915
Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations, imaging features, treatment, and prognosis of autoimmune encephalitis (AE) with positive leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1) antibody. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 11 patients with LGI1 antibody-positive AE who were admitted to Department of Neurology, The Sixth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital, from 2018 to 2022. Results Among these 11 patients, there were 10 patients with epilepsy, 8 patients with cognitive impairment, 6 patients with mental and behavioral disorders, 5 patients with sleep disorders, 1 patient with speech and language impairment, 1 patient with involuntary limb movements, 1 patient with dizziness, and 7 patients with hyponatremia. All 11 patients tested positive for LGI1 antibody, and 8 patients tested positive in serum and cerebrospinal fluid; 1 patient was also positive for contactin-associated protein-like 2 antibody, and 3 patients were positive for a single antibody in serum. Lung CT showed that 1 patient had space-occupying lesion, cranial magnetic resonance imaging showed abnormalities in 6 patients, and positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed abnormalities in 3 patients. There were 7 patients with electroencephalographic abnormalities. All 11 patients had improvements in symptoms after immunotherapy. Five patients were followed up, and 6 were lost to follow-up. Conclusion The main manifestations of LGI antibody encephalitis include seizure, faciobrachial dystonic seizures, cognitive impairment, and mental and behavioral disorders accompanied by hyponatremia. The titer of LGI1 antibody in serum is more sensitive than that in cerebrospinal fluid, and a few patients may have multiple positive autoantibodies. Immunotherapy is an effective treatment method for LGI1 antibody-positive AE.

Background:
in vitro culture of preantral follicles is a promising technology for fertility preservation.
Objectives:
This study aims to investigate an optimized three-dimensional (3D) fetal bovine serum (FBS)-free preantral follicle culture system having a simple and easy operation.
Methods:
The isolated follicles from mouse ovaries were randomly divided in an ultra-low attachment 96-well plates supplement with FBS or bovine serum albumin (BSA) culture or encapsulated with an alginate supplement with FBS or BSA culture. Meanwhile, estradiol (E 2 ) concentration was assessed through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of culture supernatants. The diameter of follicular growth was measured, and the lumen of the follicle was photographed. Spindle microtubules of oocytes were detected via immunofluorescence.The ability of oocytes to fertilize was assessed using in vitro fertilization.
Results:
The diameters were larger for the growing secondary follicles cultured in ultra-low attachment 96-well plates than in the alginate gel on days 6, 8, and 10 (p < 0.05). Meanwhile, the E 2 concentration in the BSA-supplemented medium was significantly higher in the alginate gel than in the other three groups on days 6 and 8 (p < 0.05), and the oocytes in the FBS-free system could complete meiosis and fertilization in vitro.
Conclusions
The present study furnishes insights into the mature oocytes obtained from the 3D culture of the preantral follicle by using ultra-low attachment 96-well plate with an FBSfree system in vitro and supports the clinical practices to achieve competent, mature oocytes for in vitro fertilization.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the clinical characteristics and molecular genetic mechanism of a fetus with recombinant chromosome 8 (Rec8) syndrome.
METHODS:
A fetus who was diagnosed with Rec8 syndrome at the Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University on July 20, 2021 due to high risk for sex chromosomal aneuploidy indicated by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) (at 21st gestational week) was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the fetus was collected. G-banded karyotyping and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) were carried out on the amniotic fluid sample. Peripheral blood samples of the couple were also subjected to G banded karyotyping analysis.
RESULTS:
Prenatal ultrasonography at 23rd gestational week revealed hypertelorism, thick lips, renal pelvis separation, intrahepatic echogenic foci, and ventricular septal defect. The karyotype of amniotic fluid was 46,XX,rec(8)(qter→q22.3::p23.1→qter), and CMA was arr[GRCh37]8p23.3p23.1(158049_6793322)×1, 8q22.3q24.3(101712402_146295771)×3. The karyotype of the pregnant woman was 46,XX,inv(8)(p23.1q22.3), whilst that of her husband was normal.
CONCLUSION
The Rec8 syndrome in the fetus may be attributed to the pericentric inversion of chromosome 8 in its mother. Molecular testing revealed that the breakpoints of this Rec8 have differed from previously reported ones.
