Objective To analyze and evaluate the implementation effect of tuberculosis prevention and control program in Wuhan, and to provide reference for scientific formulation of tuberculosis prevention and control measures. Methods Using the National Tuberculosis Information Management System, descriptive statistical analysis was carried out on the medical record information of pulmonary tuberculosis patients registered in Wuhan , 2016 - 2021. Results A total of 34 937 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis were registered in Wuhan , with an average annual incidence rate of 49.85/100 000. The incidence rate showed a downward trend year by year, with a statistically significant difference in 2016—2021 (χ²_trend = 708.387, P<0.001). The patients mainly came from referrals, accounting for 71.86%, and the proportion of referrals varied significantly among different years (χ²=355.541, P<0.001). The diagnosis type was mainly pathogenic negative, accounting for 49.12%. The proportion of pathogenic negative had statistically significant difference among different years (χ²=1 354.830, P<0.001). The proportion of patients cured and completed the course of treatment reached 93.98%, with statistically significant differences in the proportions among different years (cured, χ²=1 080.252, P<0.001; completed the treatment course, χ²= 933.655, P<0.001). The sputum examination rate of newly diagnosed patients in each year reached over 90%, and the overall completion rate reached over 95%. The proportion of positive pathogens showed an increasing trend year by year. Conclusion The overall epidemic situation of tuberculosis in Wuhan is declining year by year, and tuberculosis prevention and control work has achieved remarkable results. Active screening in key areas and populations should be strengthened, and prevention and control strategies should be formulated by emphasizing the key and difficult points.

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and assoicated factors of tuberculosis (TB) aggregation in schools in Wuhan from 2017 to 2020, and to provide scientific basis for school based TB prevention and control strategies. Methods: Questionnaire star was used to collect data on tuberculosis prevention and control in various schools in Wuhan. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of tuberculosis aggregation in schools. Results: A total of 37 outbreaks of tuberculosis aggregation in schools were reported in Wuhan from 2017 to 2020, which involved 28 different schools, including 24 colleges and universities and 4 senior high schools, 176 cases were reported, among which 39 were positive for pathogens and 17 cases of rifampicin resistant, and the median duration of single cluster epidemic was 48 (28, 368) days, universities were more prone to cluster outbreaks than middle schools ( χ 2=75.27, P <0.01), the incidence in male was higher than that of in female in cluster outbreak ( χ 2=22.82, P =0.00). The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that boarding school ( OR =5.12), TB screening at school entry ( OR =3.27), etiology tracking and registrationin school ( OR =7.28), treatment and isolation of sick students on time ( OR =9.12), whether the dormitories and classrooms were often ventilated ( OR =4.97), and whether the management of school suspension and return was strictly implemented ( OR =4.68) were associated with the occurrence of TB cluster outbreak( P <0.05). Conclusion Schools should actively strive for policies and funding, strictly implement TB screening and physical examination for freshmen, as well as the management of contact tracing and registeration, targeted TB health education, guidance for teachers and students for cleaning, disinfection and hand hygiene, timely treatment and reporting of suspected symptoms, to prevent the occurrence of TB clustering outbreaks.

Objective:To summarize the experience of surgical treatment of primary liver cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 10 966 surgically managed cases with primary liver cancer, from January 1986 to December 2019 at Hepatobiliary Center, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, were retrospectively analyzed. The life table method was used to calculate the survival rate and postoperative recurrence rate. Log‐rank test was used to compare the survival process of different groups, and the Cox regression model was used for multivariate analysis. In addition, 2 884 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) with more detailed follow‐up data from 2009 to 2019 were selected for survival analysis. Among 2 549 patients treated with hepatectomy, there were 2 107 males and 442 females, with an age of (56.6±11.1) years (range: 20 to 86 years). Among 335 patients treated with liver transplantation, there were 292 males and 43 females, with an age of (51.0±9.7) years (range: 21 to 73 years). The outcomes of hepatectomy versus liver transplantation, anatomic versus non-anatomic hepatectomy were compared, respectively.Results:Of the 10 966 patients with primary liver cancer, 10 331 patients underwent hepatectomy and 635 patients underwent liver transplantation. Patients with liver resection were categorized into three groups: 1986－1995(712 cases), 1996－2008(3 988 cases), 2009?2019(5 631 cases). The 5‐year overall survival rate was 32.9% in the first group(1986－1995). The 5‐year overall survival rate of resected primary liver cancer was 51.7% in the third group(2009‐2019), among which the 5‐year overal survival rates of hepatocellular carcinoma, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and mixed liver cancer were 57.4%, 26.6% and 50.6%, respectively. Further analysis was performed on 2 549 HCC patients with primary hepatectomy. The 1‐, 3‐, 5‐, and 10‐year overall survival rates were 88.1%, 71.9%, 60.0%, and 41.0%, respectively, and the perioperative mortality rate was 1.0%. Two hundred and forty‐seven HCC patients underwent primary liver transplantation, with 1‐, 3‐, 5‐, and 10‐year overall survival rates of 84.0%, 64.8%, 61.9%, and 57.6%, respectively. Eighty‐eight HCC patients underwent salvage liver transplantation, with the 1‐, 3‐, 5‐, and 10‐year overall survival rates of 86.8%, 65.2%, 52.5%, and 52.5%, respectively. There was no significant difference in survival rates between the two groups with liver transplantation ( P>0.05). Comparing the overall survival rates and recurrence rates of primary hepatectomy (2 549 cases) with primary liver transplantation (247 cases), the 1‐, 3‐, 5‐, and 10‐year overall survival rates in patients within Milan criteria treated with hepatectomy and transplantation were 96.3%, 87.1%, 76.9%, 54.7%, and 95.4%, 79.4%, 77.4%, 71.7%, respectively ( P=0.754). The 1‐, 3‐, 5‐year recurrence rates were 16.3%, 35.9%, 47.6% and 8.1%, 11.7%, 13.9%, respectively( P<0.01). The 1‐, 3‐, 5‐, 10‐year overall survival rates in patients with no large vessels invasion beyond the Milan criteria treated with liver resection and transplantation were 87.2%, 65.9%, 53.0%, 33.0% and 87.6%, 71.8%, 71.8%, 69.3%, respectively( P=0.003); the 1‐, 3‐, 5‐year recurrence rate were 39.2%, 57.8%, 69.7% and 29.7%, 36.7%, 36.7%, respectively ( P<0.01). The 1‐, 3‐, 5‐, and 10‐year overall survival rates in patients with large vessels invasion treated with liver resection and transplantation were 62.1%, 36.1%, 22.2%, 15.0% and 62.9%, 31.8%,19.9%, 0, respectively ( P=0.387); the 1‐, 3‐, 5‐year recurrence rates were 61.5%, 74.7%, 80.8% and 59.7%, 82.9%, 87.2%, respectively( P=0.909). Independent prognostic factors for both overall survival and recurrence‐free survival rates of HCC patients treated with liver resection included gender, neoadjuvant therapy, symptoms, AST, intraoperative or postoperative blood transfusion, tumor number, tumor size, cirrhosis, macrovascular invasion, microvascular invasion, and pathological differentiation. Propensity score matching analysis of 443 pairs further showed that there was no significant difference in overall survival rate between anatomical liver resection and non‐anatomical liver resection( P=0.895), but the recurrence rate of non‐anatomical liver resection was higher than that of anatomical liver resection( P=0.035). Conclusions:In the past decade, the overall survival rate of HCC undergoing surgical treatment is significantly higher than before. For HCC patients with good liver function reservation, surgical resection can be performed first, and salvage liver transplantation can be performed after recurrence. The effect of salvage liver transplantation is comparable to that of primary liver transplantation. As for the choice of liver resection approaches, non‐anatomical resection can reserve more liver tissue and can be selected as long as the negative margin is guaranteed.

Objective: To understand delay in treatment student tuberculosis (TB) patients in Wuhan from 2011 to 2018, and to provide a reference for prevention and control measures of tuberculosis in schools. Methods: The medical cases of students with tuberculosis in Wuhan recorded by the national tuberculosis management information system during 2011-2018 were analyzed for the delay and change trend of medical treatment of students with tuberculosis, and Logistic regression was used to analyze influencing factors. Results: The median number of student TB patients seeking treatment in Wuhan was 9(3,21) days, and 51.14% of student TB patients were delayed. From 2011 to 2018, the overall delay rate of TB patients in students decreased slowly and then gradually increased, decrea sing from the highest rate (56.4%) in 2011 to the lowest one (45.6%) in 2014, and then gradually increased to 53.8% in 2018, there was no significant difference in the delay rate between the first and the second four years(χ2=2.84, P=0.09); The delay rate of different gender students was the same as that of the whole. The fluctuation of female students was slightly obvious, but the difference was not statistically significant(χ2=0.07, P>0.05); Among the students of different age groups, the delay rate of 13-18 years old was the lowest(χ2=87.23, P<0.01). The delay rate of 19-22 years old and university groups of different school levels showed a slow decline, while that of other age groups and other school level groups showed an overall upward trend. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the main factors affecting the delay rate of medical treatment were the remote urban area(OR=1.84, 95%CI=1.56-2.16), the ethnic minorities (OR=2.73, 95%CI=1.46-5.09) and the age of 13-18(OR=0.57, 95%CI=0.33-1.00). Conclusion Delay in treatment of TB patients in Wuhan is not optimistic, with more than half of the students have delayed in treatment, the main factors that affect the high rate of TB patients’ treatment delay are the students in the far urban areas and ethnic minorities. It is very important to take targeted prevention and control measures to guide the students to actively seek medical treatment according to the time, the place and the person.

Objective:Recently, increasing number of lung cancer patients benefit from immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, the data of Chinese small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients is limited. This study aims to analyze the response and survival data of ICIs treatment in SCLC and to explore the predictive biomarkers.Methods:Forty-seven SCLC patients who received ICIs treatment from Peking University Cancer Hospital from May 2017 to September 2019 was recruited. Clinical characteristics including sex, age, smoking status, ICIs strategy, PD-L1 expression and therapeutic efficacy were collected to explore the clinical predictive biomarkers for SCLC ICIs treatment.Results:Among the 47 patients, 18 (38.3%) cases were partial repose (PR), 11 (23.4%) were stable disease (SD), 18 (38.3%) were progressive disease (PD), and the objective response rate (ORR) was 38.3%, disease control rate (DCR) was 61.7%, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.3 months. ICIs monotherapy accounts for 27.7%, the ORR was 15.4%, DCR was 53.8%, median PFS was 2.7 months. Combined therapy accounts for 72.3%, the ORR was 47.1%, DCR was 64.7%, median PFS was 5.4 months. Fourteen (29.8%) patients received ICIs as the first line treatment, their ORR was 85.7%, DCR was 100%, median PFS was 9.1 month. The ORR was not related to the age, sex, body mass index (BMI), smoking status and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression ( P>0.05). The ORRs were higher in patients underwent PD-L1 monotherapy ( P=0.001), combined therapy ( P=0.002) and received ICIs as the first line treatment ( P<0.001). Log-rank analysis indicated that the PFS of female patients were 12.0 months, significantly longer than 4.4 months of male patients in ICIs treatment ( P=0.038). Patients who received PD-L1 monotherapy, combined treatment, or ICIs as the first line treatment had longer PFS than their counterparts, though no statistical significant was observed ( P>0.05). Cox multivariate analysis showed that, the gender was not an independent predictor for PFS in ICIs treatment ( HR=3.777, 95% CI=0.974~30.891, P=0.054). Conclusions:Immunotherapy is an effective treatment strategy for SCLC. Patients who receive combined ICIs treatment, first line ICIs treatment and PD-L1 treatment may get greater benefits. PD-L1 expression cannot predict the response and PFS in SCLC ICIs treatment.

Objective: To investigate the survival time of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) patients and the influential factors in Wuhan. Methods: The relevant information were collected from TB management information system, cause of death reporting system and medical records by trained doctors. The univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards model were applied to analyze the factors affecting survival time of patients. Results: A total of 552 patients with MDR-TB were included in the analysis. After the diagnosis of MDR-TB, the cumulative survival rates from the first year to the third year were 0.94, 0.88, and 0.80, respectively. The mortality density of MDR-TB patients was 6.52/100 person-years, and the median survival time was (89.52±1.85) months. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the cumulative survival rate of the standardized treatment group was significantly higher than that of the non-standardized treatment group (Log rank=101.070, P<0.001). Compared with the patients aged <30 years, the HR of the patients aged 30-years and ≥60 years were 2.987 (95%CI: 1.268-7.036), 4.957 (95%CI: 1.942-12.653). Compared with the patients with the education level of high school and above, the HR of the patients with education level of junior high school/primary school and below were 1.908 (95%CI: 1.152-3.160), 1.681(95%CI: 1.033-2.735). Compared with the patients without diabetes, the HR of the patients with diabetes was 1.961(95%CI: 1.347-2.854). Compared with the patients without other serious diseases, the HR of the patients with other serious diseases was 2.597 (95%CI: 1.820-3.706). Compared with the patients who had been treated less than one time, the HR of the patients having previous treatment with more than 2 times was 1.611 (95%CI: 1.077-2.409). Compared with patients receiving standard MDR regimen treatment, the HR of the patients receiving no standard MDR regimen treatment was 3.155 (95%CI: 2.132-4.670). Conclusions The cumulative survival rate of MDR-TB patients without standard treatment was significantly lower than that of patients with standard treatment. Older age, low educational level, diabetes mellitus, other serious diseases, more than two times treatment in the past, and receiving no multi-drug resistance regimen treatment were the risk factors affecting the survival of MDR-TB patients.

Objective: To explore the impact of the personal rehabilitation treatment on life quality and curative offect of the schizophrenia patients. Methods: A total of 84 patients with chronic schizophrenia in Shanxi Rongjun Corelle Hospital from December 2016 January 2018 were randomly divided into intervention group and control group on the basis of random number table, the two groups received psychiatric routine therapy nursing and general entertainment therapy, and the intervention group received 8 weeks of individualized rehabilitation therapy on this basis.The Schizophrenics Quality of Life Scale(SQLS) and Positive and Negative Symptoms Scale(PANSS) were respectively used to evaluate the effect of the two groups before and after intervention. Results: After 8 weeks of systematic social skills training, the scores of negative symptoms, general psychopathology and total PANSS score in the intervention group were (14.65±3.68)points, (24.21±3.23)points, (52.83±7.12)points, respectively, which in the control group were (21.82±4.25)points, (28.08±4.56)points, (60.67±9.52)points, respectively, the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(t=5.18, 3.35, 3.92, all P<0.01), while the positive symptom score had no statistically significant difference between the two gorups (P>0.05). The PANSS scores and total score in the intervention group after intervention had statistically significant differences compared with those before intervention (t=2.17, 5.98, 3.86, 4.13, all P<0.05). After the intervention training, the psychosocial score, motivation and energy score, symptoms and adverse reactions score, and total score of SQLS in the intervention group were (32.64±7.32)points, (39.45±10.87)points, (18.16±10.48)points, (90.34±24.17)points, which in the control group were (35.32±10.64)points, (43.82±12.43)points, (21.05±11.52)points, (98.25±32.29)points, respectively, and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (t=2.46, 3.51, 3.12, 3.96, all P<0.05). The SQLS scores and total score in the intervention group after intervention had statistically significant differences compared with those before intervention(t=3.94, 4.72, 3.87, 5.01, all P<0.01). Conclusion The personal rehabilitation treatment can greatly promote the curative offect of patients with chronic schizophrenia, improve their life qualities.

Objective Polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (poly IC) plays an important role in the central nervous system damage and repair.This study was to investigate the effect of poly IC on inflammatory response after spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury (SCIRI) in rats.Methods A total of 72 healthy adult male SD rats were equally randomized into a sham-operation, an ischemia-reperfusion (IR), and a poly IC group.The abdominal cavities of the rats were cut open and closed again in the sham-operation group and SCIRI models were established in the IR and poly IC groups by clamping the abdominal aorta, followed by reperfusion 60 minutes later and intraperitoneal injection of saline (0.1 mL) and poly IC (1.25 μg/g), respectively.At 6, 24, and 48 hours after modeling, BBB scores were obtained and the contents of TNFα, IL-1β and IFN-β were measured by ELISA.At 48 hours, the expressions of NF-κB and IL-10 were determined by immunohistochemistry, the area of ischemic necrosis in the spinal cord tissue was calculated by TTC staining, and its morphological changes were observed under the optical microscope.Results At 48 hours after modeling, the BBB scores were significantly lower in the IR and poly IC groups than in the sham-operation group (3.80±0.75 and 9.40±0.49 vs 20.00±0.00, P<0.01), though higher in the poly IC than in the IR group (P<0.01).The rats of the IR group showed extensive degenerated neurons in the gray substance of the spinal cord, with scattered foci of bleeding and blood coagulation, while those of the poly IC group exhibited fewer necrotic neurons and basically normal nuclear morphology, though with a few swelling cells.The ischemic necrosis area of the spinal cord tissue was significantly reduced.The expression of NF-κB was decreased while that of IL-10 increased markedly.Compared with the IR group, the poly IC group showed a significant increase in the expression of IFNβ (117.23±6.06 vs 55.65±4.02, P<0.01) and a remarkably decrease in the expressions of TNFα (190.45±4.16 vs 201.82±2.18, P<0.01) and IL-1β (39.27±2.48 vs 50.59±1.47, P<0.01) at 48 hours.Conclusion Poly IC can protect the spinal cord and reduce inflammatory response after spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury.
