Objective:To summary the clinical and electrophysiological characteristics of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) originating from the temporal pole (TP), and to conduct brain network analysis based on stereo-electroencephalogram (SEEG) and head positron emission tomography- computed tomography (PET-CT).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with TLE who underwent SEEG implantation from January 1, 2019 to September 1, 2023 in Guangdong Sanjiu Brain Hospital. Based on anatomical-electrical-clinical analysis and SEEG findings, patients with seizures originating from the TP were selected. The clinical data, head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), PET-CT, scalp electroencephalogram were reviewed, and the seizure-induced network was analyzed based on SEEG and head PET-CT.Results:A total of 108 cases of TLE were analyzed, of whom 13 cases had an epileptogenic zone located at the TP, accounting for 12% (13/108) of all TLE patients. Among them, 8 were males and 5 were females, and age of onset was (11.6±7.8) years. All of them were drug-resistant epilepsy patients, of whom 6 cases had normal cognitive function, 4 had mild cognitive abnormalities, and 3 had severe cognitive decline. A total of 59 seizures were recorded, and the occurrence rate of generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) was 42% (25/59). Seizure symptoms were classified into 3 types: the first type was hypermotor, seen in 9 patients; the second type was complex motor, seen in 2 patients; and the third type was automotor, seen in 2 patients. Head MRI showed that 9 cases had a blurring of the TP on one side, with or without hippocampal sclerosis; 2 cases had a mass at the TP without hippocampal sclerosis; 2 cases were negative on head MRI. Head PET-CT showed that 13 cases had TP hypometabolism on the lesion side, of whom 11 cases had hypometabolism involving the medial temporal lobe (mTL), posterior orbital gyrus (POG), anterior cingulate gyrus (ACG) and insular lobe at the same time, the other 2 cases combined with ipsilateral hypometabolism of the medial temporal lobe. Pathology showed that 7 cases had microcortical dysplasia of the TP; 3 had focal cortical dysplasia Ⅰ or focal cortical dysplasia Ⅱ; 2 had benign tumors. Scalp electroencephalogram showed that interictal phase was divided into 3 discharge patterns: bilateral temporal regions with prominent lesion side; bilateral anterior regions with prominent lesion side; lesion-side hemisphere with prominent temporal region. Ictal period showed 4 initial patterns: lesion-side hemispheric rhythmic spikes-slow waves or polyspikes-slow waves; lesion-side anterior region rhythmic slow waves; lesion-side anterior region low voltage fast (LVF) activities, and diffuse LVF with prominent lesion-side hemisphere. SEEG showed that 13 patients received electrode implantation with (9±2) electrodes per patient, divided into 3 seizure patterns: type 1: TP?adjacent temporal neocortex?POG, ACG and insula?mTL; type 2: TP?para hippocampal gyrus and the base of temporal lobe?ACG ,POG and insula?mTL; type 3: TP?mTL?insular lobe?POG.Conclusions:TLE originating from the TP is relatively rare, with hypermotor or complex motor as the main manifestations, and automotor being relatively less common, which is more likely to be followed by GTCS. The epileptogenic network analysis displays a tendency to spread from the TP to the frontal and insular lobes, as well as to the mTL, with the former pattern being more common. Common etiologies are cortical dysplasia and benign tumors of the TP without hippocampal sclerosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of humidified high flow nasal cannula oxygen inhalation (HFNC) versus conventional nasal cannula oxygen inhalation on hypoxemia after complex ventral hernia surgery in elderly patients.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 80 elderly patients with hypoxemia after complex ventral hernia surgery who were admitted to Huadong Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from January 2021 to June 2022 were collected. There were 44 males and 36 females, aged (74±7)years. Of the 80 patients, 40 cases undergoing HFNC were allocated into HFNC group, and 40 cases undergoing conventional nasal cannula oxygen inhalation were allocated into conventional group, respectively. Observation indicators: (1) postoperative blood gas analysis; (2) postoperative complications. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the rank sum test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Repeated measurement data were analyzed using the repeated ANOVA. Results:(1) Postoperative blood gas analysis. Before surgery and at 12 hours, 24 hours, 3 days after surgery, the partial pressure of blood oxygen was (13.5±2.3)kPa, (13.4±3.2)kPa, (13.8±2.3)kPa, (13.7±2.0)kPa for the HFNC group, and (12.7±2.1)kPa, (12.9±2.4)kPa, (12.3±2.5)kPa, (13.9±2.1) kPa for the conventional group. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide was (5.6±0.7)kPa, (5.0±0.6)kPa, (4.7±0.6)kPa, (4.9±0.6)kPa for the HFNC group, and (5.6±0.6)kPa, (4.4±0.8)kPa, (5.0±4.8)kPa, (5.1±1.1)kPa for the conventional group. The saturation of blood oxygen was 97.8%±2.2%, 98.1%±2.1%, 98.9%±1.8%, 99.2%±2.0% for the HFNC group, and 97.8%±3.1%, 97.8%±2.1%, 99.0%±1.5%, 98.8%±2.0% for the conventional group. The oxygenation index was 259±28, 300±45, 352±46, 353±57 for the HFNC group, and 262±29, 297±54, 304±63, 345±53 for the conventional group, respectively. There was a significant difference in the interven-tion effect of partial pressure of blood oxygen between the two groups ( Fgroup=4.09, P<0.05) and no significant difference in the time effect or interaction effect ( Ftime=2.37, Finteraction=1.71, P>0.05). There were significant differences in the time effect and interaction effect of partial pressure of carbon dioxide between the two groups ( Ftime=7.23, Finteraction=13.21, P<0.05) and no significant difference in the intervention effect ( Fgroup=1.02, P>0.05). There was a significant difference in the time effect of saturation of blood oxygen between the two groups ( Ftime=5.54, P<0.05) and no significant difference in the intervention effect or interaction effect ( Fgroup=1.78, Finteraction=0.46, P>0.05). There were signifi-cant differences in the intervention effect, time effect, interaction effect of oxygenation index between the two groups ( Fgroup=8.21, Ftime=42.07, Finteraction=3.49, P<0.05). (2) Postoperative complications. The time in intensive care unit and cases with pulmonary infection were 3(3,3)days and 3 for the HFNC group, versus 6(5,7)days and 10 for the conventional group, showing significant differences between the two groups ( Z=27.50, χ2=4.50, P<0.05). Cases with atelectasis and endotrachead intubation were 0 and 1 for the HFNC group, versus 4 and 7 for the conventional group, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no death in either group. Conclusion:Humidified high flow oxygen inhalation has certain advantages over conventional nasal cannula oxygen inhalation in improving partial pressure of blood oxygen and oxygenation index after complex ventral hernia surgery in elderly patients.

Objective: Based on observational, longitudinal and intervention study of common diseases among students in Jiangsu Province, this paper presents the current progress of two year follow up of myopia cohort regarding the association between growth parameters with progression of myopia among children and adolescents in areas with rapid economic growth. Methods: This survey adopted the stratified cluster sampling method for school selection. The full automatic computer optometry (TOPCON RM800) was used to track myopia related parameters for all participants from 2019 to 2020 under the condition of mydriasis (compound topicamide eye drops). Relationship between growth parameters of children and adolescents and the incidence and progression of myopia was analyzed by using Cox regression multiple statistical model. Results: The myopia rates of students from grade 1 to grade 3 in 2019 were 5.4%, 21.5% and 37.3% respectively. After one year, the myopia rates of all school stages increased to 25.3%, 43.3% and 58.1% respectively( χ 2=53.59, 49.63, 32.52, P <0.01). The mean diopter of right eye and left eye after mydriasis were ( 0.30± 1.24/0.39±1.26)D in 2019 and (-0.33±1.54/-0.19±1.55)D in 2020, respectively based on Cox multiple regression results, age ( HR =1.21, 95% CI =1.09-1.34), naked eye vision ( HR =0.08, 95% CI =0.07-0.11), height ( HR =0.98, 95% CI =0.97-0.99) showed a strong correlation with the incidence and progression of myopia( P <0.05). Conclusion Myopia is growing rapidly in the central region of Jiangsu Province. It is suggested that diopter, axial length, naked eye vision, age, height and other indicators should be included in the refractive archives of children and adolescents in the region.

Objective:To study the efficacy of low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) on neuropathic pain (NP) in mice, and its effect on the activation of astrocytes and the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines were discussed.Methods:Thirty-six male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation (Sham) group and chroinc constriction injury (CCI) model group and treatment (CCI+ LIFU) group, 12 mice in each group.NP model was established by CCI on the sciatic nerve. The group of CCI+ LIFU received LIFU treatment for the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) on the 7th day after surgery, the mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) on the affected side of mice was measured at preoperation 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, and 27 days after operation, respectively, H&E staining was used to observe pathological morphological changes in the ACC region, the expression levels of ACC region AQP4 and GFAP protein were detected by Western Blot and immunofluorescence, and the expression levels of ACC region pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorption assay.Results:Compared with Sham group, MWT in the CCI group decreased from the 3rd day until the 27th day after surgery( P<0.05); Compared with the CCI group, the MWT in the CCI+ LIFU group increased on the 24th day after surgery, and was significantly higher than that of the CCI group on the 24th and 27th day after surgery ( P<0.05); LIFU stimulation did not produce significant pathological changes in the ACC region; Western Blot and immunofluorescence showed that AQP4 and GFAP protein expression in the ACC region were upregulated ( P<0.05) after peripheral nerve injury, while AQP4 and GFAP protein expression was downregulated after LIFU treatment ( P<0.05); Enzyme-linked immunosorbents showed that the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α in the region of ACC was upregulated ( P<0.05) after peripheral nerve injury, while the expression of IL-1β and TNF-α was downregulated after LIFU treatment ( P<0.05). Conclusions:LIFU can effectively relieve mechanical pain sensitivity symptoms in mice induced by CCI, possibly by inhibiting activation of astrocytes and neuro-inflammatory responses.

Antimicrobial resistance of Neisseria gonorrhoeae has become a big challenge in the control and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases. Recently, a ceftriaxone-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae strain FC428 has spread across the world including China, which has worsened the antimicrobial resistance problem. This strain is highly resistant to ceftriaxone due to a novel mosaic penA gene. In order to better understand the characteristics of FC428 and control its further spread, this review summarizes its origin, spread, main molecular characteristics, resistance mechanisms, detection methods, and strategies for clinical treatment and antimicrobial resistance surveillance.

Objective To investigate in vitro combined effect of ceftriaxone and azithromycin against clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae(NG). Methods A total of 25 NG clinical isolates were collected from the STD clinic of Dalian Dermatosis Hospital in 2012. Epsilometer test(Etest)method was used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentrations(MICs)of ceftriaxone and azithromycin against NG isolates. Fractional inhibitory concentration index (FICI) was calculated to evaluate the in vitro combined effect of ceftriaxone and azithromycin against NG isolates. Results The mean MICs of ceftriaxone and azithromycin were 0.032 mg/L (range, 0.008- 0.064 mg/L) and 0.834 mg/L (range, 0.064-4.000 mg/L), respectively. The FICI ranged from 0.724 to 2.696, and ceftriaxone and azithromycin showed an additive effect against the above NG isolates. Conclusion Ceftriaxone and azithromycin show an additive effect against NG in vitro, but further studies with large sample size are needed to confirm their effects.

Objective To analyze the clinical and pathological features of advanced colorectal serrated adenoma(ACSA). Methods The endoscopic and pathological features of 156 cases of ACSA and 121 cases of non-ACSA diagnosed in General Hospital, Tianjin Medical University from January 2010 to March 2016 were retrospectively analyzed and compared.Results ACSA and non-ACSA cases accounted for 56.3%(156/277)and 43.7%(121/277)of all patients with colorectal serrated lesions,respectively. The mean age of ACSA patients was 57.79±13.65 years and 89(57.1%)of these patients were male. There was no significant difference in age and gender between ACSA and non-ACSA patients. A total of 161 ACSA lesions were diagnosed,including 71 sessile serrated adenoma/polyps and 90 traditional serrated adenomas. Among the 161 ACSA lesions,there were 29(18.0%)lesions whose diameter≥10 mm, and 84(52.2%) lesions located in the proximal colon, which were more than non-ACSA(84/161 VS 49/134,P=0.007). ACSA was classified under endoscopy into pedunculated type(20/161),sub-pedunculated type(35/161), sessile type(24/161),flat type(79/161)and laterally spreading tumor(3/161), and the distribution of lesion type was significantly different from non-ACSA(P<0.001). One hundred and sixty(99.4%)ACSA lesions were diagnosed as dysplasia, including 158 low degree dysplasia and 2 high degree dysplasia.Moreover,16 ACSA patients were accompanied with synchronous advanced colorectal neoplasia(sACN), and large serrated polyps(diameter≥10 mm)might have a strong association with sACN(OR=4.35, 95%CI:1.467-12.894, P<0.05). Conclusion ACSA is more common in proximal colon and sub-pedunculated type,sessile type and flat type. ACSA diameter≥10 mm is significantly associated with sACN.
