Objective:To analyse the pathogenic bacteria distribution and clinical characteristics of late-onset sepsis (LOS) among premature infants with gestational age less than 34 weeks in Henan Province.Methods:The clinical data of 6 590 premature infants admitted to 17 medical institutions in Henan Province from January 2019 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The gestational age of infants was less than 34 weeks and was admitted to the neonatal ward within 7 days after birth. SPSS 19.0 statistical software was used for data analysis.Results:Among 6 590 premature infants LOS developed in 751 cases (11.40%), of whom the diagnosis was confirmed in 276 cases (36.75%) and 475 cases (63.25%) were diagnosed clinically. The fatality rate related to LOS was 13.58%. There were significant differences in the incidence of LOS and infection-related mortality among infants with different gestational ages and body weights ( χ2=388.894 and 13.572, χ2=472.282 and 9.257, P<0.05 or <0.01). Among 276 children with confirmed LOS, 286 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated. Gram-negative bacteria were most prevalent (178 strains), accounting for 62.24% of all infections, followed by fungi (58 strains, 20.28%). Klebsiella pneumoniae was most frequently detected Gram-negative bacteria (117 strains, 40.91%), among which 32.48% (38/117) was carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae. The proportion of diagnosed sepsis, the proportion of catheterization, and the infection-related mortality of infants with LOS in tertiary hospitals were all higher than those in secondary hospitals ( χ2=6.212, 5.313 and 4.435, all P<0.05). The proportion of exclusive breastfeeding in secondary hospitals was lower than that in tertiary hospitals ( χ2=19.216, P<0.05). The time of antibacterial drug use before infection in specialized hospitals was longer than that in general hospitals ( χ2=3.276, P<0.05). Conclusion:The incidence of LOS among preterm infants in Henan Province is high, which was mainly caused by Gram-negative bacteria. The clinical characteristics of LOS caused by different pathogens and in different health institutions are different, the prevention and control strategy should be developed accordingly to reduce the incidence LOS of preterm premature infants.

According to random number table method, these patients were divided into observation group and control group as 98 cases each. Conventional care and hospital discharge were used for control group. On the basis of this, multidimensional integration and 360° support were used for patients of observation group. The function of family and marriage, quality of life in patients were assessed before and after 3 months of the intervention. The treatment adherence was evaluated in 3 months and 6 months after intervention.Results:Before intervention, the marriage family function score, marital satisfaction, conflict resolution methods and the relationship with friends and family, husband and wife exchange scores of the observation group were (2.3 ± 0.5), (24.6 ± 6.1), (25.7 ± 7.1), (28.2 ± 6.9), (28.8 ± 6.9) points, respectively. Three months after intervention, these scores were (2.5 ± 0.7), (31.6 ± 5.0), (31.7 ± 5.3), (28.1 ± 6.8), (29.0 ± 7.1) points, respectively. There was statistically significant difference between before and after the intervention ( t values were -2.371 - 8.631, P < 0.01). These scores of control group before the intervention were (2.3 ± 0.6), (24.5 ± 6.2), (25.2 ± 7.2), (32.5 ± 6.0), (33.9 ± 6.3) points, respectively. Three months after intervention, these scores were (2.3 ± 0.4), (24.5 ± 6.2), (26.1 ± 6.9), (29.1± 4.8), (28.5 ± 7.2) points. Significant differeces were found between before and after the intervention in control group ( t values were -3.878-6.323, P < 0.05 or 0.01). There was statistically significant difference between the two groups after the intervention ( t values were 2.675-8.631, P<0.01). As for observation group, planning (62.8 ± 27.2 vs. 75.5 ± 25.4) and intimate relationship (62.8 ± 25.2 vs. 78.2± 24.9) in quality of life were obviously difference before and after 3 months of intervention ( t values were 3.050, 3.639, P < 0.01). As for control group, planning (62.5 ± 27.6 vs. 65.7 ± 24.9) and intimate relationship (65.8 ±25.2 vs. 63.5 ± 23.8) in quality of life were obviously difference before and after 3 months of intervention ( t values were 2.375, 3.132, P < 0.01). There was statistically significant difference between the two groups after the intervention ( t values were 3.050, 3.639, P < 0.01). The treatment adherence of observation group was significant better than control group. After 6 months intervention, the treatment adherece of observation group was 83.67% (82/98), while the treatment adherece of control group was 44.89% (44/98), significant differences were found btween the two groups ( χ2 value was 0.511, P < 0.01). Conclusion:Multidimensional integration and 360° support obviously improved function of family and marriage, improved the understanding of disease, and self-management ability of patients. Therefore, it can increase the treatment adherence and improve quality of life in SLE patients.

Objective To discuss the diagnosis and early intervention treatment of fetal congenital broncho-genic cysts based on the cases reviewed. Methods The clinical features of 7 infants presenting bronchogenic cysts diagnosed antenatally from January 2013 to May 2014 in Guangdong Women and Children's Hospital and Health In-stitute were reviewed retrospectively. Pathology,the prenatal diagnosis and treatment of bronchogenic cysts experience were summarized combined with CT after birth and surgery. Results Based on the prenatal diagnosis of fetal and postnatal CT and surgical pathology,a total of 7 cases with congenital bronchial cysts were diagnosed. Of which 4 ca-ses were suggestive of congenital cystsic adenomatoid malformation by prenatal diagnosis,and the other 3 cases had fetal bronchial cysts by prenatal diagnosis,antenatal diagnosis was accurate in 42. 9%(3 / 7 cases). CT examinations were taken in 7 cases after birth,and the cyst excision was performed on them with surgery thoracic approach;the average age at surgery was(5. 3 ± 1. 7)months. Four cases had simple bronchial cystss,2 cases with congenital cystsic adenomatoid malformation,1 case with congenital pulmonary sequestration. The accuracy of CT diagnosis was 85. 7%(6 / 7 cases). All surgical treatment was effective. Conclusions Fetal bronchial cysts is always associated with the other presence of lung congenital malformations. Prenatal diagnosis of congenital bronchial cysts is difficult. Prenatal diagnosis is difficult to exclude congenital cystsic adenomatoid malformation. To avoid symptoms like oppres-sion,infection,prenatal diagnosis combined with CT examination after birth and early treatment are necessary and reliable clinically.

Objective To investigate the effects of zinc fingers and homeoboxes 3 (ZHX3) silence on expressions of smad3, smad4 and RUNX2 in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Methods ZHX3 low expression vector (ZHX3 silent group) was constructed and was transfected to rat BMSCs. Empty vector was transfected into BMSCs and was used as vehicle control group, and wild type BMSCs was used as the control group. The cell transfection rate was measured under a fluorescence microscope, and then the successful transfection was identified. The immunocytochemistry and immu?noblotting methods were used to detect the expression levels of smad3, smad4 and RUNX2. Results (1) Cells with BMSCs phenotype can be obtained by recovery culturing. (2) After transfection, the green fluorescent protein was found in ZHX3 si?lence group and vehicle control group. Blank control group showed no significant fluorescence. The expression level of ZHX 3 was significantly lower in ZHX3 silence group than that of vehicle control group. (3) Results of immunofluorescence asssay showed that the positive expressions of smad3 and smad4 were located in nucleus and cytoplasm, the positive expression of RUNX2 was mainly located in nucleus. Positive cells were observed in three groups. There was no significant difference in fluorescence intensity between the control group and the vehicle control group, but the fluorescence intensity was significant?ly lower in ZHX3 gene silence group than that of two control groups. (4) There were no significant differences in expressions of smad3, smad4 and RUNX2 betweem control group and the vehicle control group, but they were significantly higher than those of ZHX3 silence group(P < 0.05). Conclusion ZHX3 gene silence can delay vitro osteogenesis of BMSCs, which may play a role by the down-regulated expression levels of smad3, smad4 and RUNX2.

Objective To compare different ways to trace bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) after being transplanted in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. Methods Male SD rats of SPF grade were randomly divided into sham group, model group (ischemia-reperfusion,IR), BrdU tracing group, PKH26 tracing group and GFP tracing group. Fo?cal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion model was established by blocking middle cerebral artery. 24 hours after cerebral isch?emia-reperfusion injury, 10μL BMSCs that were labeled respectively by BrdU, PKH26, GFP were added respectively into BrdU, PKH26 and GFP tracing group while equal volum of normal saline was added into sham group and model group. Mod?el and transplanting cells efficacy was determined by neural behavioral score, TTC staining and brain water content;Neurons were counted using tar violet staining;The number of transplant cells in the transplanting site was assessed by fluorescence microscopy. Results Before transplanting, there was no significant difference among BrdU, PKH26 and GFP group in cell labeled efficacy. By contrast, neural behavioral score, brain infarct volume and brain tissue water content were significantly lower in all three tracing groups than that in model group 4 weeks after transplantation while neuron counts were markedly higher. There was no significant difference of above parameters among the three tracing groups. However, the number of traced transplanting cells in damaging area in GFP group is significantly higher than that in BrdU group and PKH26 group. Conclusion In cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, the tracing effect of GFP last longer, therefore it is significantly more effective than BrdU and PKH26.
