Laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (LSC) has been a safe and viable alternative to conversion to laparotomy in cases of severe cholecystitis. The objective of this study is to determine the utility of intraoperative choledochoscopy in LSC for the exploration of the gallbladder, cyst duct, and subsequent stone clearance of the cystic duct in cases of severe cholecystitis. A total of 72 patients diagnosed with severe cholecystitis received choledochoscopy-assisted laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (CALSC). A choledochoscopy was performed to explore the gallbladder cavity and/or cystic duct, and to extract stones using a range of techniques. The clinical records, including the operative records and outcomes, were subjected to analysis. No LSC was converted to open surgery, and no bile duct or vascular injuries were sustained. All stones within the cystic duct were removed by a combination of techniques, including high-frequency needle knife electrotomy, basket, and electrohydraulic lithotripsy. A follow-up examination revealed the absence of residual bile duct stones, with the exception of one common bile duct stone, which was extracted via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. In certain special cases, CALSC may prove to be an efficacious treatment for the management of severe cholecystitis. This technique allows for optimal comprehension of the situation within the gallbladder cavity and cystic duct, facilitating the removal of stones from the cystic duct and reducing the residue of the non-functional gallbladder remnant.

Objective To explore the application effect and safety of general anesthesia with different doses of remimazolam during vascular intervention anesthesia of intracranial aneurysms.Methods Patients with intracranial aneurysms were divided into high,middle and low dose groups according to the random number table method.The venous access was opened after the patients entered the room,and the vital signs were closely monitored.The low,middle and high dose groups were intravenously injected with 0.25,0.30 and 0.35 mg·kg-1remazolam,respectively.After the loss of consciousness,alfentanil and mivacurium chloride were given for anesthesia induction.The anesthetic effect,recovery quality,hemodynamic indexes,cerebral hemodynamic indexes and neurological function indexes before anesthesia induction(T0),at the time of laryngeal mask insertion(T1),embolization(T2),5 min after operation(T3)and 30 min after operation(T4)were compared among the three groups.The incidence of postoperative cerebral vasospasm(CVS),delayed ischemic neurological dysfunction(DIND)and the incidence of adverse drug reactions related to anesthesia were counted.Results The onset times of anesthesia in the high,middle,and low dose groups were(5.03±1.28),(5.17±1.09),and(7.21±1.15)min,respectively;the number of anesthesia rescue interventions were(0.12±0.02),(0.21±0.06),and(1.51±0.23)times,respectively.There was statistically significant difference in the number of rescue interventions between the high and middle dose groups compared to the low dose group(all P＜0.05).The therapeutic efficacy rates of flumazenil in the high,middle,and low dose groups were 18.18％,11.11％and 2.86％,respectively.the mean arterial pressure(MAP)at T2 were(87.06±6.02),(86.85±5.61)and(81.09±5.37)mmHg;the MAP at T4 were(92.05±5.13),(87.57±6.29)and(84.42±5.16)mmHg,respectively.There was statistically significant difference in MAP between the high and low dose groups(all P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in heart rate(HR),oxygen saturation(SpO2),left peak systolic velocity of middle cerebral artery(Vp-MCA),left mean systolic velocity of middle cerebral artery(Vm-MC)and pulsatility index(PI),S100β protein,and neuron-specific enolase(NSE)levels among the three groups at different time points(all P＞0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence rates of cardiovascular system complications,delayed postoperative cognitive dysfunction,or anesthesia-related adverse reactions between the three groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion The safety of different doses of remimazolam general anesthesia in the vascular interventional therapy of intracranial aneurysms is high,and the effects on cerebral hemodynamics and neurological function are similar.However,high-dose remimazolam have shorter general anesthesia induction time and less intraoperative anesthesia remedy frequency while the high-dose remimazolam has higher postoperative flumazenil antagonist therapy.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Objective To systematically evaluate the incidence of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in adult cases with carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE)colonization in intestine,and provide referential basis for the prevention and control of HAI in cases colonized with CRE intestinally.Methods Literatures on the incidence of HAI in cases with intestinal CRE colonization were retrieved from 8 databases,including Embase,Cochrane,PubMed,Web of Science,CNKI,Wanfang,VIP,and China Biomedical Literature Database(CBM),dating back from the establishment of the databases to June 2023.Meta-analysis was conducted by Stata 17.0 software.Stabili-ty of the research results was evaluated by sensitivity analysis,and publication bias was evaluated by Egger's test.Results A total of 16 articles were included in the study,with in total 2 151 cases from 5 Chinese articles and 11 English articles.Meta-analysis results showed that the incidence of HAI in adult cases with intestinal CRE coloniza-tion was 23.1％(95％CI:14.8％-32.5％).Subgroup analysis was conducted based on grouping factors,such as different research design types,publication years,as well as research regions,departments,and infection sites.The differences in the combined effects among subgroups were not statistically significant(all P＞0.05).Among the CRE developed from colonization to HAI,the proportion of carpabenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)was 96.0％(95％CI:86.8％-100％),and the incidence of bloodstream infection in colonized cases was 18.2％(95％CI:10.3％-27.6％).The 30-day mortality of CRE colonized cases was 32.6％(95％CI:20.5％-45.9％),and the 30-day mortality of CRE infected cases was 36.9％(95％CI:16.0％-60.2％).Conclusion In recent years,the incidence of HAI in cases with CRE colonization is high,it is necessary to actively screen and focus on intervention in high-risk departments,so as to decrease the incidence of HAI in CRE colonized cases.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of early surgical treatment for spinal thoracolumbar fracture without nerve injury.Methods The clinical data of 80 patients with spinal thoracolumbar fracture without nerve injury who were admitted to the department of spinal surgery in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.According to the different operation timing,those who underwent surgery within 72 hours after fracture were included in the early operation group(n=41),and those who underwent surgery 72 hours to 2 weeks after fracture were included in the elective operation group(n=39).All operations were performed through the Wiltse approach for short-segment pedicle screw fixation on the injured vertebra.The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,hospital stay and incidence of complication of the two groups were compared.The visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,Oswestry disability index(ODI),compression rate of the anterior edge height of the injured vertebra,and the Cobb angle in the sagittal position of the injured vertebra before surgery,1 week after surgery and 1 year after surgery were compared between the two groups.The improvement rates of the anterior edge height compression and the Cobb angle in the sagittal position of the injured vertebra 1 week and 1 year after surgery were compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in the operation time,intraoperative blood loss or total incidence of complications between the two groups(P>0.05).The hospital stay in the early operation group was shorter than that in the elective operation group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The VAS scores and ODI 1 week and 1 year after surgery of the two groups were better than those before surgery,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the VAS scores or ODI at each time point before and after surgery between the two groups(P>0.05).The compression rate of the anterior edge height and Cobb angle in the sagittal position of the injured vertebra 1 week and 1 year after surgery in the two groups were lower/smaller than those before surgery,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the compression rate of the anterior edge height or Cobb angle before surgery in the sagittal position of the injured vertebrae between the two groups(P>0.05).The compression rate of the anterior edge height and Cobb angle in the sagittal position of the injured vertebra 1 week and 1 year after surgery in the early operation group were lower/smaller than those in the elective operation group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The improvement rates of the anterior edge height compression and the Cobb angle in the sagittal position of the injured vertebra 1 week and 1 year after surgery in the early operation group were better than those in the elective operation group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Early surgical treatment for spinal thoracolumbar fracture without nerve damage is safe,it can significantly shorten hospitalization time,obtain good fracture reduction quality and definite therapeutic effects.However,a comprehensive preoperative evaluation of the patients' condition is necessary to ensure surgical safety.

Introduction::The triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) ratio, a novel biomarker for metabolic syndrome (MetS), has been validated in the general population as being significantly correlated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. However, its capabilities to predict CVD in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV; PLWH) remain underexplored.Methods::We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 16,081 PLWH who initiated antiretroviral therapy (ART) at the Third People’s Hospital of Shenzhen (China) from 2005 to 2022. The baseline TG/HDL-C ratio was calculated as TG (mmol/L) divided by HDL-C (mmol/L). We employed a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model to assess the association between the TG/HDL-C ratio and CVD occurrence, using Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank tests to compare survival distributions. The increase in prediction risk upon the addition of the biomarker to the conventional risk model was examined through the assessment of changes in net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI). Nonlinear relationships were investigated using a restricted cubic spline plot, complemented by a two-piecewise Cox proportional hazards model to analyze threshold effects.Results::At the median follow-up of 70 months, 213 PLWH developed CVD. Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated a significant association between the increased risk of CVD and a higher TG/HDL-C ratio (log-rank P <0.001). The multivariate-adjusted Cox proportional hazards regression model indicated that the CVD hazard ratios (HR) (95% confidence intervals [95% CIs]) for Q2, Q3, and Q4 versus Q1 of the TG/HDL-C ratio were 2.07 (1.24, 3.45), 2.17 (1.32, 3.57), and 2.20 (1.35, 3.58), respectively ( P <0.05). The consideration of the TG/HDL-C ratio in the model, which included all significant factors for CVD incidence, improved the predictive risk, as indicated by the reclassification metrics (NRI 16.43%, 95% CI 3.35%-29.52%, P = 0.014). The restriction cubic spline plot demonstrated an upward trend between the TG/HDL-C ratio and the CVD occurrence ( P for nonlinear association = 0.027, P for overall significance = 0.009), with the threshold at 1.013. Significantly positive correlations between the TG/HDL-C ratio and CVD were observed below the TG/HDL-C ratio threshold with HR 5.88 (95% CI 1.58-21.88, P = 0.008), but not above the threshold with HR 1.01 (95% CI 0.88-1.15, P = 0.880). Conclusion::Our study confirms the effectiveness of the TG/HDL-C ratio as a predictor of CVD risk in PLWH, which demonstrates a significant nonlinear association. These findings indicate the potential of the TG/HDL-C ratio in facilitating early prevention and treatment strategies for CVD among PLWH.
