Objective:To explore the effectiveness of the comprehensive healthcare management model for children with bacterial meningitis after discharge.Methods:This study was a retrospective cohort study that included 268 children with bacterial meningitis who were discharged from the infectious medicine ward of Beijing Children′s Hospital from September 2018 to September 2023. The children were managed with a multidisciplinary collaborative comprehensive healthcare management model after discharge. Outpatient data at 1 month and 6, 12 and 24 months after discharge were collected, including (height, weight, body mass index, nutritional feeding status, hearing and vision screening results, Gesell developmental assessment results and intervention guidance services. The follow-up interval or frequency was dynamically adjusted or increased according to the child′s situation. The paired sample t-test and chi square test were applied to compare the differences in Gesell developmental quotient (DQ) and developmental delay rate between the first and last assessments to preliminarily explore the effectiveness of the comprehensive healthcare management model for children with bacterial meningitis after discharge. Results:All the 268 children completed their first assessment one month after discharge, and 37 children were found to have abnormal physical growth, mainly obesity (28 children), and another 9 children were malnutrition. Nutritional intervention and feeding guidance services were provided to all the 37 children, and as of the last follow-up, 20 children′s physical growth evaluations had turned normal. A total of 188 children completed at least 2 developmental assessments, with an interval of (14.2±9.4) months between the first and last assessments (range: 3.1-49.5 months). The DQ values of in the energy region of adaptability, gross motor skills, fine motor skills, language, and personal social skills at the last assessment were significantly higher than those at the first assessment [(91.93±13.28) vs (80.73±15.96) points, (91.69±12.96) vs (78.31±16.58) points, (89.32±16.11) vs (80.68±15.63) points, (90.10±16.65) vs (82.04±18.43) points, (92.01±14.05) vs (77.82±17.42) points]; moreover, the rates of developmental delay in each energy region were significantly lower than those at the initial assessment (9.6% vs 35.1%, 9.6% vs 42.0%, 18.1% vs 33.0%, 13.3% vs 31.9%, 9.6% vs 42.0%) (all P<0.05). Among the 200 children who completed the hearing screening, 18 were found with hearing abnormalities, and 2 were diagnosed with hearing loss in the Otolaryngology Department. Among 217 children who completed vision screening, 23 had abnormalities, and 5 were diagnosed with ophthalmic abnormalities in Ophthalmology Department (2 with strabismus, 2 with refractive errors, and 1 with optic nerve injury). Two children were found to have autism-like behavior during monitoring, and were referred to a developmental behavior clinic to be diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder and were given early diagnosis and intervention guidance. Conclusion:The comprehensive healthcare management model for children with bacterial meningitis after discharge can integrate clinical and healthcare resources, which is beneficial for improving the prognosis and enhancing the quality of life for children with special health status.

Objective:To understand the identification value of pointing gestures in children with autism spectrum disorder(ASD) and its relationship with functional development.Methods:From December 2020 to November 2021, 1 099 children from Children’s Health Care Center of Beijing Children’s Hospital were tested by pointing gestures test, including 942 ASD children and 157 typical developed children.And the data of children's neuropsychological development scale from 800 children aged 1.0-5.9 were collected.SPSS 20.0 was used for statistical analysis. Trend test was used to analyze the distribution of pointing gestures test sensitivity in autistic children, and ANOVA was used to analyze the relationship between pointing gestures test scores and functional development fields.Results:The sensitivity of pointing gestures was 83.5% in children aged 1.0-10.0 years, 76.3%-93.1% in children aged 1.0-4.9 years, and 93.1%-95.1% in children aged 1.0-2.9.With the increase of age, the sensitivity of pointing gestures in autistic children (linear-by-linear association =164.889, P<0.001) and the Yoden index had a decreasing trend. The positive predictive value (91.53%-100.00%) and negative predictive value (75.36%-91.84%) were found in the children aged 1.0-10.0 years.The sensitivity of pointing gestures test was 44.9% in children with mild autism aged 1.0-10.0 years and 46.5%-65.9% in children with mild autism aged from 1.0-3.9 years. The sensitivity of pointing gestures test was 81.5% in children with moderate autism aged from 1.0-10.0 years and 87.3%-97.8% in children with moderate autism aged 1.0-3.9 years. The sensitivity of the pointing gestures test was 97.2% in children with severe autism aged 1.0-10.0 years, and 100.0% in children with severe autism aged 1.0-3.9 years. The sensitivity of the pointing gestures in mild, moderate and severe autism children decreased with age (linear-by-linear association values were 16.725, 64.232, 66.732 respectively, all P<0.001). The children with severe autism mainly scored 2 points (80.3%, 419/522) on the pointing gestures test , and children with moderate autism mainly scored 1 point(64.2%, 170/265) on the pointing gestures test. There were significant differences in functional development among different pointing gestures test groups.Functional development score in the autism children with 0 score of pointing gestures test was significantly higher than those with 1 score and 2 scores of pointing gestures test (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Pointing gestures has good sensitivity in children with autism (especially 1.0-4.9 years of age), and may serve as an objectively observable screening method. The better children with autism score on the pointing gestures, the better their functional development.

This article reported a male neonate with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) caused by DHCR7 gene compound heterozygous variations. The patient presented with multiple malformations and feeding difficulties after birth and was transferred to the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan Normal University (Hunan Provincial People's Hospital) from a local hospital eight days later. Physical examination found general scleredema, scalp defects, short penis, urinary tract malformation, bilateral syndactyly of the second and third toes, and low serum cholesterol. Whole-exome and Sanger sequencing indicated a compound heterozygous mutation in the DHCR7 gene, c.852C>A(p.F284L), and a de novo mutation of c.820_825del(p.N274_V275del). SLOS is rare in the Asian populations and prone to missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis with difficulty in clinical management. The possibility of SLOS should be considered for newborns with multiple malformations and low serum cholesterol.

Objective:To investigate the effects of propofol on malignant biological behaviors of prostate cancer DU145 cells and its possible mechanism.Methods:Control group, 5-fluorouracil group (200 ng/ml) , low-dose propofol group (100 ng/ml) and high-dose propofol group (400 ng/ml) were set up. CCK-8 kit was used to measure the level of cell proliferation, Transwell method was used to measure the abilities of cell invasion and migration, flow cytometry was used to measure the level of apoptosis, and qRT-PCR and Western blotting were used to measure hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and c-Met mRNA and protein levels.Results:The survival rates of the control group, 5-fluorouracil group, low-dose propofol group and high-dose propofol group were (83.32±3.02) %, (36.29±3.54) %, (62.01±4.69) % and (40.20±5.48) % ( F=8.65, P=0.006) ; the apoptosis rates were (2.36±0.41) %, (12.47±0.40) %, (6.28±0.39) % and (10.24±0.37) % ( F=26.73, P=0.001) . Further pairwise comparison showed that there were statistically significant differences (all P<0.05) . The numbers of penetrating membranes of the four groups were 617.45±29.86, 125.27±24.38, 407.02±32.27 and 230.74±31.59 ( F=18.33, P=0.002) ; the migration distances were (603.85±27.74) μm, (121.69±25.85) μm, (395.59±28.37) μm and (233.52±30.42) μm ( F=27.02, P=0.001) . Further pairwise comparison showed that there were statistically significant differences (all P<0.05) . HGF mRNA expression levels of the four groups were 6.26±0.39, 1.94±0.35, 4.15±0.37 and 2.90±0.33 ( F=25.31, P=0.001) ; c-Met mRNA expression levels were 5.85±0.30, 2.04±0.32, 3.89±0.31 and 2.94±0.32 ( F=12.12, P=0.003) ; HGF protein expression levels were 1.43±0.04, 0.34±0.08, 0.86±0.06 and 0.63±0.09 ( F=17.02, P=0.001) ; c-Met protein expression levels were 1.63±0.14, 0.39±0.15, 0.93±0.11 and 0.64±0.17 ( F=19.89, P=0.001) . Further pairwise comparison showed that there were statistically significant differences (all P<0.05) . Conclusion:Propofol has obvious inhibitory effects on the malignant biological behaviors of prostate cancer DU145 cells, and the inhibitory effect of high-dose propofol is more obvious. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of HGF and c-Met mRNA and protein expressions of DU145 cells by propofol, which inhibits the activation of HGF/c-Met pathway.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between social and linguistic parenting behaviors and developing capability of children with autism.Methods:From August 2020 to December 2020, the social and linguistic parenting behaviors of 302 parents of children diagnosed with autism were investigated in the outpatient department of the hospital.Meanwhile, the data of Gesell scale for children, the social life competence scale for infant and junior middle school students, the autism behavior checklist and the Cancy autism behavior scale were collected.SPSS 20.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Independent sample t test and analysis of variance were used to compare the social and linguistic parenting behaviors of different parents.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the social and linguistic parenting behaviors of parents and children's developmental ability and symptom severity. Results:There were no statistically significant differences in children's social and language development parenting behavior between father and mother ( t=1.033, P=0.303; t=-0.312, P=0.756). There were no statistically significant differences in children's social and linguistic parenting behaviors between fathers of different age groups ( F=1.425, P=0.244; F=1.127, P=0.345). Among mothers of different age groups, the social parenting behaviors of <30 years old and 30-34 years old groups were significantly better than those of 35-39 years old group ( F=3.374, P=0.019; LSD: P=0.010, P=0.006). Among fathers, the social parenting behavior( F=4.346, P=0.008; LSD: P=0.020, P=0.001) and social + linguistic parenting behavior in the graduate group and college group were significantly better than those in the high school/vocational group( F=3.965, P=0.012; LSD: P=0.020, P=0.002). Among mothers, the social parenting behavior ( F=2.812, P=0.040; LSD: P=0.008, P=0.023, P=0.009), linguistic parenting behavior ( F=3.769, P=0.011; LSD: P=0.010, P=0.025, P=0.001), social + linguistic parenting behavior ( F=3.654, P=0.013; LSD: P=0.005, P=0.015, P=0.002) in graduate and above groups were significantly better than those in college group, high school/vocational group, junior high school and below groups.The scores of social parenting behavior(40.72±6.80), linguistic parenting behavior(27.20±5.22), and social + linguistic parenting behavior(67.92±11.10) were significantly correlated with children’s fine motor(61.75±16.41)( r=0.193, P=0.001; r=0.153, P=0.009; r=0.190, P=0.001), cognition(68.28±16.83)( r=0.231, P=0.000; r=0.186, P=0.001; r=0.229, P=0.000), language(53.01±18.55) ( r=0.262, P=0.000; r=0.305, P=0.000; r=0.304, P=0.000) and social self-care(61.44±17.85) ( r=0.264, P=0.000; r=0.238, P=0.000; r=0.274, P=0.000). The scores of linguistic parenting behavior and social + linguistic parenting behavior were correlated with children's social life ability (8.65±0.89) ( r=0.142, P=0.046; r=0.140, P=0.049). There was no significant correlation between social parenting behavior, linguistic parenting behavior, social + linguistic parenting behavior and the scores of ABC scale (50.53±21.39) ( r=-0.089, P=0.336; r=-0.115, P=0.215; r=-0.107, P=0.250) and CABS scale (13.96±4.54) ( r=-0.050, P=0.490; r=-0.059, P=0.411; r=-0.058, P=0.421). Conclusions:The social and linguistic parenting behaviors are related to their age and educational level, and are significantly correlated to developing capability of children with autism, but have nothing to do with the severity of children's symptoms.

The clinical application of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has significantly improved the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. With the widespread applica-tion of ICIs in HCC, the management of immune-related adverse events (irAE) gained more and more attention. However, the complicated disease characteristics and various combination therapies in HCC throw out challenges to irAE management. Therefore, the editorial board of the 'Chinese expert consensus on the management of immune-related adverse events of hepatocellular carcinoma treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (2021 edition)' organizes multidisciplinary experts to discuss and formulate this consensus. The consensus focuses on issues related to HCC irAE manage-ment, and puts forward suggestions, in order to improve standardized and safety clinical medication, so as to maximize the benefits of immunotherapy for patients.

Objective:To understand the health status of children in an organization in the urban area of Beijing.Methods:From October to November 2019, 558 children aged from 0 to 13 of employees in an organization in Beijing received physical examination, including height, weight, ophthalmology and otorhinolaryngology, heart and lung examination, etc.Statistical analysis was conducted on the items related to physical status and with higher detection rate. Body mass index (BMI)≥P 85(P is the percentile compared to the standardized growth curve) was defined as overweight and BMI≥P 95 as obese. The rate and composition ratio were used to describe the relevant data of each item in children′s physical examination. The differences between different age groups and gender groups were compared with the chi-square test. Results:The items with high detection rate were overweight, obesity, rhinitis, caries, phimosis, etc. The ratio of children′s weight and height ≤P 10 were 3.4% and 2.7%, ≥P 97 were 12.0% and 7.0%respectively; the rates of overweight (BMI≥P 85) and obesity (BMI≥P 95) in children were 13.8% and 13.3% respectively, the ratio of weight ≥P 97, height ≥P 97 and BMI≥P 95all increased with age in all children and in boys (all P<0.05), the ratio of BMI≤P 5 increased with age ( P<0.05), and the ratio of body weight ≥P 75 decreased with age in boys ( P<0.05); the ratio of weight ≥P 75 in boys was significantly higher than that in girls ( P<0.05). The prevalence of rhinitis in children was 39.8%, among which the prevalence of allergic rhinitis was 14.9%.The prevalence of allergic rhinitis in the 3.0-5.9 age group of all children was significantly higher than that in 0.0-0.9 age group and 6.0-9.9 age group (both P<0.05), the prevalence of total rhinitis in the 3.0-5.9 age group of girls was significantly higher than that in 0.0-0.9 age group, 1.0-2.9 age group and 10.0-13.9 age group (all P<0.05). The prevalence of dental caries in children (excluding the group of 0.0-0.9 years old) was 26.0%, the prevalence of dental caries in the 3.0-5.9 age group of all children was significantly higher than that in 1.0-2.9 age group and 10.0-13.9 age group (both P<0.05), the prevalence of dental caries in 3.0-5.9 age group and 6.0-9.9 age group of boys and girls were both significantly higher than that in 1.0-2.9 age group (all P<0.05). The prevalence of phimosis in boyswas 31.5%, the phimosis rates were significantly higher in the 1.0-2.9 age group and 3.0-5.9 age group than that in 6.0-9.9 age group and 10.0-13.9 age group (all P<0.05). No statistical differences were found in the prevalence of allergic rhinitis and dental caries between obese and non-obese children ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The severity of overweight and obesity in children is beyond our expectation, the allergenicity problem is becoming more and more prominent, the prevention and treatment of dental caries needs to be improved urgently, and the phimosis problem in boys needs to be paid attention to.

Objective:To explore the clinical experiences and treatment outcomes of partial complicated posterior communicating artery aneurysms (PCoAs) via Dolenc approach.Methods:The clinical data of 27 patients with partial complicated PCoAs accepted clipping via Dolenc approach in our hospitals from July 2014 to June 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical efficacies were analyzed and the surgical experiences were summarized in these patients.Results:Among 27 patients with partial complicated PCoAs, 26 accepted clipping successfully via Dolenc approach, and one accepted clipping and wrapping. For clinical ourcomes, 2 out of 3 patients with preoperative oculomotor paralysis got improvement after surgery, and one was without change; in 4 patients with new-onset oculomotor paralysis after surgery, 2 returned to normal after conservative treatment, one got improvement, and one was without change. After surgery, 2 had basal ganglia focal cerebral infarction and one had ventriculoperitoneal shunt due to hydrocephalus. DSA or CTA examination within two weeks after surgery showed all 26 aneurysms were completely clipped and without residual. During the 9-12 months of follow up, Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) showed that 20 patients had GOS 5 scores, 3 had GOS 4 scores, 2 had GOS 3 scores, one had GOS 2 scores, and one died. No patients showed aneurysm recurrent in the imaging examination.Conclusion:Via Dolenc approach, anterior clinoid process and its surrounding bony structures are drilled off via extradural way, and proximal of parent artery is exposed well, therefore, more operation space can be provided to deal with partial complicated PCoAs.
