Objective To investigate the prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in passenger drivers and its influencing factors. Methods A total of 951 passenger drivers in Guangdong Province were selected as the research subjects using the judgmental sampling method. A Musculoskeletal Injury Questionnaire was employed to assess the prevalence of WMSDs in the past year. Results The prevalence of WMSDs in passenger drivers was 41.11%. The result of multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that married drivers had a higher risk of WMSDs than single drivers (P<0.05). The lower the frequency of physical exercise, the longer the driving time per week, the longer the continuous driving time, the more restricted the driving working space, the poorer the foot comfort during driving, and the more affected the normal meal, the higher the risk of WMSDs (all P<0.05). The risk of WMSDs in drivers with sleep time ≤ 8.0 h/d was higher than that in drivers with sleep time > 8.0 h/d (P<0.01), and the risk of WMSDs in drivers with the same posture for a long time on the shoulder was higher than that in drivers without this poor working posture (P<0.01). Conclusion WMSDs were prevalent among passenger drivers, which was associated with demographic and adverse ergonomic factors. Intervention on lifestyle and adverse ergonomic factors could further reduce the risk of WMSDs of passenger drivers.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of bloodstream infection caused by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) in preterm infants, and to provide basis for early clinical diagnosis and infection control. Methods:The clinical data of infants with CRKP bloodstream infection admitted to the Preterm Infants Ward of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January 2015 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The risk factors for death in preterm infants caused by CRKP bloodstream infection were explored through multivariate logistic regression analysis, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the clinical value of each factor on evaluating prognosis. The area under curves (AUC) of each factor in different ROC curve were compared by Delong′s test.Results:A total of 96 preterm infants with CRKP bloodstream infection were included, including 70 in the survival group and 26 in the death group. The first onset symptoms of CRKP bloodstream infection in preterm infants were persistent tachycardia (heart rate>180 per minute) (69 cases, 71.9%), fever (61 cases, 63.5%), and apnea (59 cases, 61.5%). There were 88(91.7%) cases of infection combined with septic shock, and 91(94.8%) cases required vasoactive drug support. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the maximum vasoactive-inotropic score (VIS) within 48 hours of onset (odds ratio ( OR)=1.058, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.022 to 1.095, P=0.001), concurrent purulent meningitis ( OR=8.029, 95% CI 1.344 to 47.972, P=0.022), and concurrent necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) ( OR=10.881, 95% CI 1.566 to 75.580, P=0.016) were independent risk factors for death in preterm infants with CRKP bloodstream infection. The ROC curve showed that the AUCs for evaluating the prognosis of preterm infants with NEC and purulent meningitis were 0.784 and 0.711, respectively. The AUC for evaluating the prognosis of preterm infants with a maximum VIS ≥52.5 points within 48 hours of onset was 0.840, and the AUC for combining the three factors was 0.931. Compared with NEC and purulent meningitis, the AUC for combining factors was higher, the differences were statistically significant ( P=0.002, P<0.001). Conclusions:Preterm infants with CRKP bloodstream infection who have a maximum VIS ≥52.5 points within 48 hours of onset, with NEC and purulent meningitis have a higher risk of death.

Objective:To analyze and summarize the clinical, genotypic and pathological characteristics of children with PAX2 gene mutation in China, and to provide information for the monitoring, treatment and prognosis of the disease. Methods:It was a case series analysis study. The clinical data of children with PAX2 gene mutation in Pediatric Nephrology Department, Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from January 2014 to December 2022 were collected, and peripheral blood gene DNA was extracted and sequenced for whole exome sequencing. The clinical, pathological and genotypic characteristics of PAX2 gene variation of children in China were summarized by searching PubMed, Medline, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wanfang database and compared with the cases in this single center. Results:Among the 13 children with PAX2 gene mutation, there were 9 males and 4 females, 12 patients with abnormal urine tests, 7 patients with small kidney volume by imaging examination, and 5 patients with renal cysts. The clinical phenotypes were congenital renal and urinary tract malformations in 8 cases, renal coloboma syndrome in 1 case, and hematuria or proteinuria in 3 cases. Five patients underwent renal biopsies, showing focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and C3 glomerulopathy in 1 case, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis in 1 case, thin basement membrane lesion in 1 case, and IgA nephropathy in 2 cases. The genetic testing in 13 children showed 9 de novo mutations and 4 new mutations of c.321G>A, c.213-8C>G, c.63C>A and c.449C>T. There were 2 cases of 76dupG (p.V26Gfs*28) mutant. A total of 51 Chinese children with PAX2 gene mutation were found in the literature search. There were 32 males and 19 females, 8 cases with small kidney volume and 12 cases with renal cysts. The clinical phenotypes were congenital anomalies of kidney and urinary tract in 28 cases, renal coloboma syndrome in 17 cases, and hematuria or proteinuria in 6 cases. Seven patients underwent renal biopsies, including 2 cases with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, 1 case with minimal lesion, 1 case with mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis, 1 case with IgA nephropathy, 1 case with membranous nephropathy and a case with focal proliferative sclerosing purpura nephritis combined with glomerular hypertrophy. Thirty-four cases were de novo mutations, and 12 mutations were from the father or mother. The father or mother of 5 children had no clinical manifestations, with normal renal function. There were 11 cases of 76dupG (p.V26Gfs*28) mutant. Conclusions:The clinical phenotypes and genotypes of PAX2 gene variation in Chinese children are diverse. The most common clinical phenotype of PAX2 gene variation is congenital anomalies of kidney and urinary tract. c.76dupG (p.V26Gfs*28) is the most common of PAX2 gene variant.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of eosinophilic lung diseases(ELD) in children to enhance pediatricians′ understanding of ELD.Methods:In this retrospective cross-sectional study, a total of 149 children with ELD were recruited from Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University between April 1, 2007 and March 31, 2022.Chi-square test, Fisher′s exact test, Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis test were used to analyze data and conclude clinical characteristics.Spearman correlation was used to analyze the correlation between eosinophils in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid.Chi-square test and Kappa consistency test were used to compare the differences and consistency in diagnostic results between bronchoalveolar lavage fluid or lung biopsy and eosinophil elevation with chest imaging abnormalities. Results:(1)The isolated lung involvement was mostly caused by allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis(9 patients), and other system involvement by idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome(89 patients).(2)The main respiratory manifestations included coughing(90 cases, 60.4%) and expectoration(41 cases, 27.5%), while 23.5%(35 cases) of patients had no respiratory symptoms; 50.3% had digestive system involvement, and 40.9% had skin involvement.These were the two most commonly affected organs.(3)Spearman correlation was performed between eosinophils in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid( r=0.3, P<0.05).Chi-square test was performed to compare ELD diagnosed by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid or lung biopsy with peripheral blood eosinophilia accompanied by abnormal chest imaging( P<0.05).Kappa consistency test(Kappa<0.2) showed poor consistency between the two diagnostic methods. Conclusions:ELD are present in children, and multiple etiologies may be pathogenic.Among children with ELD, the isolated lung involvement is mainly caused by allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis.The digestive system and skin are the most commonly affected organs, except for lungs.The correlation between eosinophil levels in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid is poor.

Objective To explore the efficacy and technical points of complete preservation of female reproductive organ in radical cystectomy.Methods In 2020 and 2021,two female patients with bladder cancer undergoing radical cystectomy in The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University were selected.The clinical conditions of the patients were evaluated before surgery,and the reproductive organs were completely preserved according to the patients'wishes during the operation.The patients were regularly followed up after surgery.The efficacy and prognosis of patients were evaluated.Results The operation was successful and the two patients recovered well without surgery-related complications.The follow-up time for two patients were 22 months and 36 months.During the follow-up period,no tumor recurrence was found,and the scores of sexual function and quality of life were good.One patient was successfully pregnant at 17 months after surgery,and routine prenatal examination and non-invasive fetal DNA testing showed no abnormalities.Conclusions Under the premise of strictly grasping the surgical indications,the complete preservation of female reproductive organs in radical cystectomy can improve patients'quality of life after surgery,especially protect the reproductive function of women of childbearing age.

Objective:To understand the current status of fear of falling in patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis and analyze the influencing factors.Methods:The convenient sampling method was used to select maintenance hemodialysis patients admitted to BenQ Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from August to October 2022 as the research objects. A survey was conducted on patients using the general information questionnaire, modified falls efficacy scale (MFES), fatigue, resistance, ambulation, illness, loss of weight (FRAIL), and Braden Mobility Subscale.Results:A total of 219 questionnaires were sent out, and 219 were effectively collected, with an effective recovery rate of 100.00%. Among 219 patients with maintenance hemodialysis, 96 had fear of falling, and the incidence of fear of falling was 43.84%. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that age, type of kidney disease, fall history, and score of FRAIL were the influencing factors of fear of falling in patients with maintenance hemodialysis ( P< 0.05) . Conclusions:The incidence of fear of falling in patients with maintenance hemodialysis is relatively high. Age, diabetic nephropathy, history of falls, and frailty are the risk factors for fear of falling in patients with maintenance hemodialysis. Medical staff can develop targeted intervention measures for maintenance hemodialysis patients based on risk factors to reduce their fear of falling.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of cytomegalovirus-sepsis-like syndrome (CMV-SLS) in premature infants, and to provide the evidence for early clinical identification and treatment.Methods:Premature infants with CMV-SLS admitted to Children′s Hospital Affiliated of Zhengzhou University from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2022 were selected as the research subjects, and their clinical characteristics, treatment, and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of seven cases of CMV-SLS were included, with a gestational age of (26.8±1.2) weeks and a birth weight of (890±121) g. The age of disease onset was 55(45, 60) days, and the age of diagnosis was 67(56, 71) days. All the seven cases were exclusively breast feeding after birth, and cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA was detected positive in their breast milk when diagnosed with CMV-SLS. The common clinical features were fever, abdominal distension, liver function damage, decreased neutrophil and platelet counts. Pneumonia, neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis, hearing loss, and chorioretinitis were common. After the diagnosis was confirmed, all the seven cases were given intravenous treatment of ganciclovir and followed by oral formulations, with a course of treatment ranging from five to seven weeks. Two cases were treated with intravitreal injection of ganciclovir for chorioretinitis. All the seven cases survived. During the follow-up with a corrected gestational age of 12 months, one case had delayed intellectual and motor development, two cases had delayed motor development, and the remaining cases had normal development.Conclusions:CMV-SLS in premature infants mainly occurs in extremely low birth weight infants, with atypical clinical manifestations and may be misdiagnosed easily. If extremely low birth weight infants who receive CMV DNA positive breast feeding show sepsis-like symptoms, the possibility of CMV infection should be considered, and early diagnosis and treatment should be carried out to prevent adverse outcomes.

Objective:To explore the relationship between preterm labor with different causes and cerebral perfusion in different regions of interest in very preterm infants.Methods:This was a prospective cohort study. A total of 145 preterm infants with gestational age of 28-31 +6 weeks who were hospitalized in the Neonatology Department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University within 24 h after birth from April 2022 to May 2023 were selected for the study, and were categorized into the iatrogenic preterm labor group ( n=55), spontaneous preterm labor with premature rupture of the membranes (PROM) group ( n=47), and spontaneous preterm labor with intact membranes group ( n=43) according to the cause of preterm labor. Cerebral blood flow (CBF) values in the cortex and deep gray matter of different regions of interest (frontal lobe, temporal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, thalamus, and basal ganglia) were measured using the arterial spin labeling technique in the very preterm infants in each group. One-way analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis H test and Bonferroni correction, Chi-square test or Fisher's exact probability method, analysis of covariance, and LSD test were used to compare the differences in CBF among the groups. Results:The differences in the incidence of complications such as cerebral white matter injury, Ⅰ-Ⅱ grade intracranial hemorrhage, and late-onset sepsis during hospitalization among the three groups of preterm infants were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). In the iatrogenic preterm labor group, compared with the spontaneous preterm labor with PROM group, CBF [in units of ml/ (100 g·min)] was higher in regions of interest such as the right temporal lobe [20.5 (16.1-24.6) vs. 17.1 (14.5-23.0)], bilateral parietal lobe [left side: 22.4 (17.1-25.3) vs. 16.9 (14.4-24.1); right side: 23.0 (18.2-27.4) vs. 17.0 (14.0-22.2)], right occipital lobe [22.1 (18.6-29.5) vs. 19.4 (13.7-24.5)], bilateral basal ganglia [left side: 33.0 (29.1-36.3) vs. 24.9 (22.9-33.1); right side: 32.8 (29.0-37.0) vs. 26.1 (22.3-35.0)], and bilateral thalamus [left side: 39.2 (36.0-45.0) vs. 32.6 (25.1-42.2); right side: 38.6 (34.6-44.1) vs. 32.0 (25.4-44.9)] (Bonferroni corrected, all P<0.017). Compared with the spontaneous preterm labor group with intact membranes, CBF in the iatrogenic preterm labor group was higher in the cortex and deep gray matter of regions of interest such as bilateral frontal lobe [left side: 21.4 (18.3-25.3) vs. 17.0 (12.0-22.2); right side: 22.1 (16.7-25.0) vs. 15.9 (12.0-23.3)], temporal lobe [left side: 21.4 (17.0-24.8) vs. 18.4 (14.0-22.0); right side: 20.5 (16.1-24.6) vs. 17.3 (13.3-22.3)], parietal lobe [left side: 22.4 (17.1-25.3) vs. 15.3 (10.4-20.8); right side: 23.0 (18.2-27.4) vs. 15.7 (11.1-23.6)], occipital lobe [left side: 22.7 (18.8-28.4) vs. 18.2 (11.4-23.4); right side: 22.1 (18.6-29.5) vs. 19.6 (14.0-25.8)], basal ganglia [left side: 33.0 (29.1-36.3) vs. 27.7 (19.1-32.4); right side: 32.8 (29.0-37.0) vs. 27.7 (21.5-33.0)] and thalamus [left side: 39.2 (36.0-45.0) vs. 33.9 (26.0-43.7); right side: 38.6 (34.6-44.1) vs. 33.3 (27.8-40.4)] (Bonferroni corrected, all P<0.017). Analysis of covariance revealed that the cause of preterm birth had a significant effect on CBF values in the cortex and deep gray matter of very preterm infants ( P=0.007), and that iatrogenic preterm birth elevated CBF perfusion in the localized cerebral cortex and deep gray matter of very preterm infants as compared to the spontaneous preterm births with PROM group and spontaneous preterm births with intact membranes group (LSD test, all P<0.05). Conclusion:Cerebral blood perfusion in very preterm infants is related to the causes leading to preterm birth, and local cortical and deep gray matter blood perfusion levels in the brain are increased in those with iatrogenic preterm birth compared to spontaneous preterm birth.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of depression in patients with lacunar cerebral infarction 3 months after discharge, and build a risk prediction model.Methods:The clinical data of 237 patients with lacunar cerebral infarction diagnosed and treated in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from January 1, 2021 to January 1, 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Demographic data, laboratory indicators and risk factors of cardiovascular disease were collected when the patients were admitted to hospital. The patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) score was used to assess the risk of post-stroke depression (PSD) 3 months after discharge. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify independent risk factors of depression. A predictive model was constructed based on the above risk factors. The predictive efficacy was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and the clinical applicability of the predictive model was measured by calibration curve and decision curve.Results:Fifty-four patients with lacunar infarction (22.80%) showed symptoms of depression at 3 months after discharge. Multivariate logistic regression showed that women ( OR=2.952, 95% CI: 1.403-6.213, P=0.004), cystatin C ( OR=2.964, 95% CI: 1.222-7.191, P=0.016), apolipoprotein B ( OR=4.836, 95% CI: 1.533-15.258, P=0.007) were the independent risk factors for PSD in patients with lacunar infarction. Activity of daily living (ADL) score ( OR=0.939, 95% CI: 0.915-0.964, P<0.001) was a protective factor for PSD in patients with lacunar infarction. The area under the curve (AUC) of the prediction model was 0.779 (95% CI: 0.703-0.855, P<0.001), which was better than other predictors. Hosmer-Lemeshow H test showed that the model was well calibrated ( P=0.588). In addition, the prediction model of decision curve analysis had a good clinical applicability. Conclusions:The predictive model based on gender, laboratory indicators and daily life ability score can evaluate the risk of PSD in patients with lacunar infarction 3 months after discharge. It is good predictive efficacy and clinical applicability which worth clinical promotion and application.

ObjectiveTo introduce the Hr gene of spontaneously mutated SHJH^hr mice into BALB/cAShjh inbred mice with clear genetic background,and provide a basis for study on the molecular mechanism of Hr gene mutation-induced abnormal phenotype and the application of this model.Methods Using a backcross-intercross breeding method guided by phenotypic monitoring, mutant genes from SHJH^hr mice bred by spontaneous mutation were introduced into inbred BALB/cAShjh mice by homozygous mutation introgression, and the mice were bred into BALB/cA.Cg.SHJH^hr (abbreviated as C.Cg.SHJH^hr) mice after 10 generations. The genotypes of 90 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection sites were analyzed in C.Cg.SHJH^hr mice by multiplex PCR library construction followed by next generation sequencing. Then 14 biochemical locus marker genes were detected in C.Cg.SHJH^hr mice according to the method of GB/T 14927.1-2008. Finally, whole genome exon sequencing was utilized to detect the mutated genes in this mouse. ResultsFrom May 2018 to March 2022, a total of 10 generations of backcross-intercross were conducted to complete the construction of the C.Cg.SHJH^hr mouse line. Among the 90 SNPs loci detected, except for rs13484115 and rs13484116, all the other loci had the same genotype as the recipient mice BALB/cAShjh. The results of biochemical marker gene detection showed that all the 14 loci of the mouse were the same as those of the recipient mouse. Whole genome exon sequencing found that the mouse had 109 site mutations compared with the recipient mouse strain, including 71 synonymous mutations, 1 stopgain, 37 missense mutations, and 20 genes involved in protein sequence alterations (including the reported Hr gene). ConclusionC.Cg.SHJH^hr mice were created. Through exon sequencing and genetic analysis, three Hr mutated genes and associated mutated genes that mainly cause phenotypic variations were identified, which provides a basis for expanding the application of C.Cg.SHJH^hr mice in biomedical research.
