To investigate the awareness of cognitive impairment disorders among residents of the Xizang Autonomous Region and its influencing factors, thereby providing a basis for targeted prevention and treatment efforts. From April to December 2024, a questionnaire survey was conducted among permanent residents aged ≥18 years (residing in the Xizang Autonomous Region for 180 days or more). The survey was primarily conducted online, supplemented by QR code distribution during community medical outreach by healthcare workers. Demographic information and data on awareness of cognitive disorders were collected, and an ordered Logistic regression model was used to analyze influencing factors in the overall population and stratified by occupation. A total of 327 questionnaires were collected, with 14 excluded (13 for not meeting residency requirements and 1 for self-reported diagnosis of cognitive impairment), leaving 313 valid questionnaires. The average age of respondents was 42.0±11.9 years; 108 (34.5%) were male, and 205 (65.5%) were female. Most respondents were from Lhasa (78.6%, 246/313); 179 (57.2%) were healthcare workers, and 134 (42.8%) were non-healthcare workers. Regarding awareness of cognitive impairment disorders, 7.3% (23/313) were "unaware", 75.7% (237/313) were "partially aware", and 16.9% (53/313) were "well aware".Ordered Logistic regression analysis revealed that education level of high school or below ( Awareness of cognitive impairment disorders among residents of the Xizang Autonomous Region needs improvement. Educational level, occupation, and prior contact with cognitive impairment patients significantly influence disease awareness. Enhancing overall education levels and using vivid clinical case presentations in health education and public outreach are key strategies to improve public awareness of cognitive impairment disorders.

Objective:This study aimed to clarify the clinical characteristics of children infected with rhinovirus in the context of the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and to explore the impact of recent COVID-19 infection history on their clinical features.Methods:Clinical data and laboratory test result of 286 children diagnosed with rhinovirus infection at Hangzhou Children′s Hospital from July 2022 to October 2023 were collected. A retrospective survey was conducted to determine whether all study participants had a history of COVID-19 infection within the 6 months prior to hospitalization.Results:Among the 286 children with rhinovirus infection, 180 (62.94%) had simple rhinovirus infection, while 106 (37.06%) had co-infections with other pathogens; Among the 180 rhinovirus simplex-positive children, 56.67% had wheezing symptoms; among them, 15 cases (15/180, 8.33%) were diagnosed with acute asthma attacks; 7 cases (7/180, 3.88%) were diagnosed with severe pneumonia. Based on whether the children had a history of COVID-19 infection in the 6 months prior to hospitalization, they were divided into a group with previous COVID-19 infection and a group without previous COVID-19 infection. There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of gender, age of onset, peak fever, incidence of wheezing, incidence of pneumonia, proportion of severe pneumonia, proportion of severe asthma attacks, duration of fever, time to relief of wheezing, length of stay, white blood cell count, eosinophil count, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, immunoglobulin E, oxygen therapy requirements, and use of intravenous steroids ( P>0.05). Conclusions:A history of COVID-19 infection in the past 6 months does not exacerbate the clinical symptoms of children with rhinovirus infection, nor does it increase the incidence of wheezing.

Objective:To investigate the positive rate and isolate Bordetella pertussis in children with suspected whooping cough and their close family members in Zhejiang Province, and further explore the susceptibility and resistant mechanism of Bordetella pertussis to antibiotics. Methods:A total of 273 nasopharynx swabs specimens from children with suspected whooping cough in Hangzhou Children′s Hospital from May 2022 to October 2022 were collected. The strains were isolated and cultured using charcoal select agar plate. Pertussis target genes were detected by RT-PCR. E-test method was used to detect the sensitivity of Bordetella pertussis strains to different antibiotics. The mechanism of resistance of Bordetella pertussis to macrolides was analyzed by whole genome sequencing. The phylogenetic analysis of isolated strains was based on core genome multilocus sequence typing(cgMLST). Results:Among 273 clinical samples of children with suspected pertussis and their close family members, 168 samples were positive by fluorescence quantitative PCR, accounting for 61.54%, and 30 pertussis strains were successfully isolated with a positive rate of 10.98%. In addition, among the 143 samples of close family members, 54.55% (78/143) samples were positive by RT-PCR and 9.79% (14/143) samples were positive by culture, suggesting that the close family member are important in family transmission of pertussis. Besides, most of the positive samples were from mothers. The results of E-test showed that 96.67%(29/30) strains showed high resistance to azithromycin with MIC value>256 mg/L, and the resistant mechanism of azithromycin was A2047G mutation in 23S rRNA. The phylogenetic analysis based on the cgMSLT showed that the isolated strains were clustered into two new different clades.Conclusions:The positive rate of Bordetella pertussis in close family members is at a high level and the mother may be the main source of infection, which is of great significance for monitoring and laboratory detection of suspected children′s family members. Bordetella pertussis shows high resistance to macrolides in Zhejiang Province, so monitoring of the antimicrobial resistance should be further strengthened to provide theoretical basis for clinical treatment and drug guidance.

Objective:To compare the effectivity and safety of ureteral stenting and percutaneous nephrostomy for patients with upper urinary calculi and sepsis.Methods:From June 2013 to June 2019, 429 patients with upper urinary calculi and urosepsis were accepted in the second hospital of Tianjin Medical University. According to surgical decompression, patients were divided into two groups, ureteral stenting (US, n=304) and percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN, n=125).121 patients were accompanied with septic shock in US group, 56 in PCN group. The effectivity of decompression was analyzed separately in patients with or without shock. For decompression, data included the success rate of decompression, the time of infection related parameters (temperature, blood WBC and CRP) returning to normal and the complications (progress of infection within 30min after decompression, perforation of ureter or pelvis). When urosepsis was cured, ureteroscopic lithotripsy was followed for all patients. The operation time, the stone free rate, the rate of using RIRS and the complications were compared.Results:For patients without septic shock, the success rate of decompression in PCN was higher (68/69)than that of US(165/183)( P =0.025); there was no significant difference in hospital stay for infection control and the time of infection related parameters (temperature, blood WBC and CRP) returning to normal ( P>0.05). The rate of infection progress within 30min in US(25/183) was higher than PCN(3/69)( P=0.036). When ureteroscopic lithotripsy was mentioned, the operation time in US(38.5±6.8 min) was longer than PCN(32.8±4.5 min)( P=0.000), the stone free rate and the rate of using RIRS were lower in PCN( P=0.044, P=0.0002). For patients with septic shock, the success rate of decompression in PCN was higher (55/56)than that of US(106/121)( P=0.022). The rate of infection progress within 30min after decompression was still higher in US ( P=0.048), the time of infection related parameters (temperature, blood WBC and CRP) returning to normal was shorter in PCN ( P=0.000, P=0.003, P=0.000). For lithotripsy, the operation time was longer in US ( P=0.017), the stone free rate and the rate of using RIRS were lower in PCN ( P=0.024, P=0.005). Conclusions:For patients with upper urinary calculi and urosepsis, both ureteral stenting and percutaneous nephrostomy can drainage the pelvis effectively. PCN provides quick recovery, especially when septic shock is involved. For the following ureteroscopic lithotripsy, PCN contributes to less operation time and higher stone free rate, reduces the use of flexible ureteroscope.
