Objective: To investigate the influence of sleep fragmentation in infancy and toddler period on emotional and behavioral problems at the age of 6 years. Methods: Using a prospective cohort design, 262 children were extracted from mother-child birth cohort recruited from May 2012 to July 2013 in Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Children's sleep and physical activities were assessed using actigraphy at 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36 months of age, from which the sleep fragmentation index (FI) at each follow-up point was calculated. Children's emotional and behavioral problems at 6 years of age were assessed using the strengths and difficulties questionnaire. Group-based trajectory model was applied to determine sleep FI in infancy and toddler period trajectory groups with Bayesian information criteria being used to determine the best fitting model. Children's emotional and behavioral problems between groups were examined with independent t test and linear regression models, etc. Results: A total of 177 children, with 91 boys and 86 girls, were included in the final analysis and were divided into 2 groups: high FI group (n=30) and low FI group (n=147). Compared with children in the low FI group, those in the high FI group presents with higher total difficulties score and higher hyperactivity or inattention score ((11.0±4.9) vs. (8.9±4.1), (4.9±2.7) vs. (3.7±2.3) scores, t=2.17, 2.23, both P<0.05, respectively), with the differences remaining significant after adjusting for covariates (t=2.08, 2.09, both P<0.05 respectively). Conclusion: High sleep fragmentation in infancy and toddler period is associated with more emotional and behavioral problems, especially hyperactivity or inattention problems, at 6 years of age.

AIM:To evaluate the underlying aetiology and clinical characteristics of retinal detachment(RD)in school-age pediatric monocular RD.METHODS:Patients with RD and contralateral blind(monocular RD)aged 7-14 years, from November 2015 to May 2021 in our hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Demographic characteristics and etiology of RD, clinical type, surgical modality, type of intraocular tamponade, pre-and postoperative visual and anatomical outcomes were recorded and evaluated.RESULTS: There were 27 children(27 eyes)with monocular RD at least 6mo follow-up. The average age at presentation was 10.63±2.30 years. Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy(FEVR)(11/27, 41%), postoperative congenital glaucoma(6/27, 22%)and Stickler syndrome(3/27, 11%)were main underlying etiologies. Among them, rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD)comprised 78%(21/27)of the patients, of which 81% patients(17/21)had proliferative vitreoretinopathy(PVR)C3 or worse. Pars plana vitrectomy(PPV)was done in 85%(23/27)of the patients, of which 83%(19/23)received silicone oil tamponade. Best corrected visual acuity(BCVA, LogMAR)worse than 1.7 was seen in 78%(21/27)of the patients at final visit, and 82%(22/27)had reattached retina, but 41%(11/27)of the patients remained status of silicone oil tamponade at last visit.CONCLUSION:School-age pediatric monocular RD is often associated with underlying congenital or hereditary conditions, and often presented with severe RD and severe PVR reaction which needed vitrectomy combined with silicon oil tamponade, and with poor visual and anatomical short-term prognosis.

Many therapies are effective in treating varicoceles, including dilation of the pampiniform plexus in males. The most common method of treatment is varicocelectomy. We aimed to assess an alternative technique (microsurgical spermatic [distal end]-superficial or inferior epigastric vein anastomosis) that preserves the normal blood flow pattern for varicocele treatment. We retrospectively analyzed 27 men with varicocele between October 2019 and July 2020. All patients underwent microsurgical spermatic (distal end)-superficial or inferior epigastric vein anastomosis. The prognosis was reviewed retrospectively with an additional survey conducted 3 months after surgery. The mean ± standard deviation of the age was 26.1 ± 7.3 years in patients with microsurgical spermatic (distal end)-superficial or inferior epigastric vein anastomosis. The maximum diameter of the varicocele vein, perineal pain score, sperm density, and forward movement of sperm improved over 3 months after surgery. Microsurgical spermatic (distal end)-superficial or inferior epigastric vein anastomosis is a safe and efficient surgical treatment for varicoceles.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of local infiltration anesthesia of ropivacaine combined with compound betamethasone for postoperative analgesia in patients with hallux valgus. METHODS: From September 2019 to December 2020, 48 patients with hallux valgus were treated surgically. According to different postoperative analgesia methods, the patients were divided into combined local infiltration group and intravenous analgesia pump group. There were 24 cases, in the combined local infiltration group including 2 males and 22 females;the age ranged from 21 to 78 years old, with an average of (58.3±7.7) years old;soft tissue release and chevron osteotomy were performed in 15 cases and metatarsophalangeal joint fusion in 9 cases;immediately after operation, 20 ml of ropivacaine combined with compound betamethasone mixed diluent was used for local infiltration anesthesia once. There were 24 patients in intravenous analgesia pump group, including 3 males and 21 females;the age ranged from 23 to 81 years old, with an average of(56.8±8.3) years old;soft tissue release and Chevron osteotomy were performed in 17 cases and metatarsophalangeal joint fusion in 7 cases;immediately after operation, intravenous analgesia pump was used for analgesia. The basic flow was 2 ml / h;the self control dose was 0.5 ml;and the locking time was 15 min. Visual analogue scale (VAS) was recorded at 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after operation;and the VAS was recorded at 24 hours after operation. The occurrence of adverse drug reactions at 0 to 12 hours, 12 to 24 hours and 24 to 48 hours after operation were recorded;and the healing of incision was recorded. RESULTS: All patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 14 to 17 days, with a mean of (14.60±0.92) days. There was significantdifference in VAS at 12, 24 and 48 hours between the combined local infiltration group and the intravenous analgesia pump group( CONCLUSION Compared with intravenous analgesia pump group, ropivacaine combined with compound betamethasone can significantly reduce postoperative wound pain without increasing adverse drug reactions, and does not increase wound infection.

Huosu Yangwei (HSYW) Formula is a traditioanl Chinese herbal medicine that has been extensively used to treat chronic atrophic gastritis, precancerous lesions of gastric cancer and advanced gastric cancer. However, the effective compounds of HSYW and its related anti-tumor mechanisms are not completely understood. In the current study, 160 ingredients of HSYW were identified and 64 effective compounds were screened by the ADMET evaluation. Furthermore, 64 effective compounds and 2579 potential targets were mapped based on public databases. Animal experiments demonstrated that HSYW significantly inhibited tumor growth in vivo. Transcriptional profiles revealed that 81 mRNAs were differentially expressed in HSYW-treated N87-bearing Balb/c mice. Network pharmacology and PPI network showed that 12 core genes acted as potential markers to evaluate the curative effects of HSYW. Bioinformatics and qRT-PCR results suggested that HSYW might regulate the mRNA expression of DNAJB4, CALD, AKR1C1, CST1, CASP1, PREX1, SOCS3 and PRDM1 against tumor growth in N87-bearing Balb/c mice.

Objective::Through data mining analysis of Chinese patent medicine prescription containing Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata (CPMCA) in a hospital, the characteristic rules of clinical medication of this kind of Chinese patent medicine were analyzed from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation and treatment, and the application prospect of data mining in TCM prescription analysis was explored. Method::CPMCA in the hospital outpatient clinics from November 2017 to October 2018 was conducted. The clinical application of this kind of Chinese patent medicine was retrospectively analyzed from the aspects of basic situation of patients, TCM diseases, TCM syndromes and so on. The clinical application of CPMCA was reviewed and analyzed. Three kinds of data mining algorithms in Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services 2012 were used to analyze the characteristics of prescription medication. Result::A total of 8 kinds of Chinese patent medicines containing Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata were used in a hospital, and most of them were used by patients under 14 years old, among them, the dosage of Xiaoer Feike granules was the largest. The TCM diseases were mostly cough, cold and asthma, while the TCM syndromes were mostly cold-heat complicated syndrome, wind-phlegm syndrome and external contraction of wind evil. The CPMCA for nourishing and warming kidney-Yang included Jingui Shenqiwan, Longlu capsules, Wangbi capsules and Guifu Dihuang pills. The TCM diseases were mostly arthralgia syndrome, vertigo, and consumptive disease, meanwhile, the syndromes were mainly deficiency of liver and kidney, kidney deficiency and blood stasis, and deficiency of spleen and kidney. Decision tree analysis showed that the CPMCA had the characteristics of age distribution, among which TCM diseases and syndromes were the main decision points. According to the age, sex, diagnosis of Chinese and western medicine, and TCM syndromes of this type of prescription, the CPMCA were divided into 10 categories by cluster analysis. Correlation analysis showed that the combination of Xiaoer Feike granules was the most common, but the correlation was not high. And Jingui Shenqiwan, Qili Qiangxin capsules, Longlu capsules and Wangbi capsules had their own strong associated medication. Conclusion::The application of data mining algorithm in multi-factor analysis of clinical prescription is close to the clinical dialectical treatment thinking of TCM. Combined with the basic statistics, it can be seen that the CPMCA in a hospital is consistent with the characteristics of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment.
