Objective:To analyze the situation of intestinal bacterial infections and drug resistance in children,and provide reference for the rational use of drugs in the treatment of bacterial enteritis.Methods:We collected cases of diarrhea in children admitted to the outpatient and inpatient departments of Kunming Children's Hospital from January 2014 to December 2022,whose fecal samples was detected pathogenic bacteria.The drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria was analyzed.Results:A total of 10 233 children with diarrhea were tested for fecal samples,and 595 cases of pathogenic bacteria were detected through fecal culture,with a detection rate of 5.8%.Among them,456 cases of Salmonella were detected,accounting for 76.6%.There were 128(21.5%) cases of Shigella genus,of which Shigella flexneri was the main subset(58.6%).The distribution of departments was most common in the gastroenterology department,followed by the infectious disease wards.The seasonal distribution of bacterial enteritis showed that the incidence was high in summer and autumn.Infants and young children under three years old was found have the highest incidence.The drug sensitivity results showed that Salmonella and Shigella had high resistance to penicillin and aminoglycosides,and were highly sensitive to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,quinolones,and carbapenems; Cephalosporins had good antibacterial activity against Salmonella,with a resistance rate of 12.9% to 32.7%.However,the overall resistance rate of Salmonella to ceftriaxone and ceftazidime was on the rise.Cefotaxime and cefepime had good antibacterial activity against Shigella,but Shigella had a high resistance rate of 95.0% to ceftriaxone.Conclusion:Salmonella is the main pathogen causing bacterial diarrhea in Kunming region,with the highest incidence in infants and young children under the age of three.The resistance rate of Salmonella to ceftriaxone is on the rise,and it is highly sensitive to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,quinolones,and carbapenems.This can provide local medication references for primary clinical pediatricians when they cannot obtain the results of bacterial culture drug sensitivity.

Objective:To investigate the value of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), pediatric sequential organ failure assessment (pSOFA) and pediatric critical illness score (PCIS) in predicting mortality of pediatric sepsis in pediatric intensive care units (PICU) from Southwest China.Methods:This was a prospective multicenter observational study. A total of 447 children with sepsis admitted to 12 PICU in Southwest China from April 2022 to March 2023 were enrolled. Based on the prognosis, the patients were divided into survival group and non-survival group. The physiological parameters of SIRS, pSOFA and PCIS were recorded and scored within 24 h after PICU admission. The general clinical data and some laboratory results were recorded. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve was used to compare the predictive value of SIRS, pSOFA and PCIS in mortality of pediatric sepsis.Results:Amongst 447 children with sepsis, 260 patients were male and 187 patients were female, aged 2.5 (0.8, 7.0) years, 405 patients were in the survival group and 42 patients were in the non-survival group. 418 patients (93.5%) met the criteria of SIRS, and 440 patients (98.4%) met the criteria of pSOFA≥2. There was no significant difference in the number of items meeting the SIRS criteria between the survival group and the non-survival group (3(2, 4) vs. 3(3, 4) points, Z=1.30, P=0.192). The pSOFA score of the non-survival group was significantly higher than that of the survival group (9(6, 12) vs. 4(3, 7) points, Z=6.56, P<0.001), and the PCIS score was significantly lower than that of the survival group (72(68, 81) vs. 82(76, 88) points, Z=5.90, P<0.001). The predictive value of pSOFA (AUC=0.82) and PCIS (AUC=0.78) for sepsis mortality was significantly higher than that of SIRS (AUC=0.56) ( Z=6.59, 4.23, both P<0.001). There was no significant difference between pSOFA and PCIS ( Z=1.35, P=0.176). Platelet count, procalcitonin, lactic acid, albumin, creatinine, total bilirubin, activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time and international normalized ratio were all able to predict mortality of sepsis to a certain degree (AUC=0.64, 0.68, 0.80, 0.64, 0.68, 0.60, 0.77, 0.75, 0.76, all P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with SIRS, both pSOFA and PCIS had better predictive value in the mortality of pediatric sepsis in PICU.

Septic cardiomyopathy(SIC)is an organ dysfunction frequently observed in sepsis and characterized by high mortality and poor prognosis.Understanding the complex pathogenesis of SIC and developing effective therapeutic tools are critical issues that require attention.Previous studies have demonstrated the significant role of mitochondrial dysfunction in the development of SIC.In the presence of SIC,and the mitochondrial dysfunction that result,the aberrant regulation of the mitochondrial quality control system(MQC)can exacerbate cardiomyocyte injury.Recent studies have demonstrated that the MQC maintains the dynamics of mitochondrial homeostasis through its regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis,fusion/fission,and autophagy.This article provides an overview of the role of MQC in SIC pathogenesis,reviews the latest studies in the field,and analyzes MQC's potential as a therapeutic target.

Objective:To analyze the difference of clinical characteristics and outcomes of infants with moderate and severe pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome(PARDS)diagnosed according to baseline oxygenation index(OI) in pediatric intensive care unit(PICU).Methods:Second analysis of the data collected from the "Efficacy of pulmonary surfactant (PS) in the treatment of children with moderate and severe ARDS" program.Retrospectively compare of the differences in clinical data such as general condition, underlying diseases, OI, mechanical ventilation, PS administration and outcomes among infants with moderate and severe PARDS divided by baseline OI who admitted to PICUs at 14 participating tertiary hospitals from 2016 to December 2021.Results:Among the 101 cases, 55 cases (54.5%) were moderate and 46 cases (45.5%) were severe PARDS.The proportion of male in the severe group (50.0% vs.72.7%, P=0.019) and the pediatric critical illness score(PCIS)[72 (68, 78) vs.76 (70, 80), P=0.019] were significantly lower than those in the moderate group, while there was no significant difference regarding age, body weight, etiology of PARDS and underlying diseases.The utilization rate of high-frequency ventilator in the severe group was significantly higher than that in the moderate group (34.8% vs.10.9%, P=0.004), but there was no significant difference in PS use, fluid load and pulmonary complications.The 24 h OI improvement (0.26±0.33 vs.0.04±0.34, P=0.001) and the 72 h OI improvement[0.34 (-0.04, 0.62) vs.0.15 (-0.14, 0.42), P=0.029)]in the severe group were significantly better than those in the moderate group, but there was no significant difference regarding mortality, length of hospital stay and intubation duration after diagnosis of PARDS between the two groups. Conclusion:In moderate and severe(divided by baseline OI) PARDS infants with invasive mechanical ventilation, children in severe group have better oxygenation improvement in the early stage after PARDS identified and are more likely to receive high frequency ventilation compared to those in moderate group.Baseline OI can not sensitively distinguish the outcomes and is not an ideal index for PARDS grading of this kind of patient.

Non-occupational post-exposure prophylaxis (nPEP), a biological means to block the transmission of HIV, is recommended by European countries, USA and WHO to use in HIV high-risk groups, but its utilization rate is still very low. The information-motivation-behavioral skills model (IMB) can accurately explain the prevalence and change of health behaviors. Based on this model, this paper summarizes the progress in research of the influencing factors for nPEP use to provide a basis for further research to promote the use of nPEP.

Objective:To summarize the classification of etiology, age of onset, prognosis of children with convulsion, so as to provide experience guidance for clinicians engaged in pediatric emergency department.Methods:The clinical data of children with convulsions received in the emergency department of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Kunming Medical University from January 2015 to December 2018 were analyzed retrospectively.Results:During the four-year period, 2 957 children with convulsion were received in the emergency department, accounting for 22.20% of the total number of critically ill children in the observation room of the emergency department, and the ratio of male to female was 1.7∶1.The etiological diagnosis of convulsion in emergency are as follows: febrile convulsion(733 cases, 24.79%), central nervous system infection(477 cases, 16.13%), unexplained convulsion(476 cases, 16.09%), epilepsy(371 cases, 12.55%), benign infantile convulsions with mild gastroenteritis(240 cases, 8.12%). The age of onset: 8.25% were in neonatal period, 33.99% were in infant, 34.87% were in toddler′s age, 12.17% were in preschool age, 7.88% were in school age and 2.84% were in adolescence.Destination statistics: 72.00% were admitted to hospital for further treatment, 13.29% were transferred to neurology clinic, 7.85% to pediatric clinic, 1.66% to rehabilitation clinic, and 0.17% died.Inpatient department: 43.64% were admitted to department of neurology, 17.52% to pediatric intensive care unit, 13.71% to department of neonatology, 12.64% to department of gastroenterology and 2.72% to department of rehabilitation.Conclusion:Febrile convulsion is the main cause of convulsion in children who were received emergency treatment in our hospital.Most of the convulsion cases are from birth to preschool age, and the prognosis is good after active treatment.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features and prognostic factors in children with sepsis complicated with myocardial injury.Methods:The clinical data of children with sepsis complicated with myocardial injury from January 2017 to January 2019 in Department of Intensive Care Unit, Children′s Hospital of Kunming City, were retrospectively analyzed. The pediatric critical illness score (PCIS) at admission, gender, age, infection site, clinical outcome, mechanical ventilation and blood purification were recorded. The etiological results, creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase isoenzyme MB (CK-MB), myoglobin, hypersensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT), procalcitonin (PCT), lactate, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), cardiac output, left ventricular truncation rate (LVFS) were recorded. According to the clinical results, the children were divided into improvement group and deterioration group, and the clinical data of each group were compared. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and multivariate Logistic regression were used to screen the relevant clinical indicators that could predict the prognosis of children.Results:A total of 138 children with sepsis complicated with myocardial injury were enrolled. Thirty cases died in 28 d, and the mortality of 28 d was 21.7%. The respiratory tract was the main infection site, and the main pathogens were gram-negative bacteria and virus. The 35.4% (28/79) of children were complicated with multiple infections. There were 102 cases in improvement group; and there were 36 cases in deterioration group, among whom 5 cases died in hospital and 31 cases was discharged without treatment. The proportion of the girls in deterioration group was significantly higher than that in improvement group: 63.9% (23/36) vs. 34.3% (35/102), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in age, infection site, mechanical ventilation, blood purification and PCIS between 2 groups ( P>0.05). The hs-cTnT and lactate in deterioration group were significantly higher than those in improvement group: (1.87 ± 0.67) ng/L vs. (1.62 ± 0.51) ng/L and (0.46 ± 0.31) ng/L vs. (0.34 ± 0.27) ng/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05); there were no statistical differences in CK, CK-MB, myoglobin, PCT, LVEF, cardiac output and LVFS between 2 groups ( P>0.05). ROC curve analysis result showed that the hs-cTnT and lactate were risk factors for predicting clinical prognosis in children with sepsis complicated with myocardial injury, the area under the curve were 0.623 and 0.613, the optimal value were 159.59 and 2.65 ng/L, with a sensitivity of 36.1% and 55.6%, and a specificity of 98.2% and 70.6%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that the hs-cTnT and gender were independent risk factors for prognosis ( OR = 2.237 and 0.286, 95% CI 1.093 to 4.578 and 0.127 to 0.644, P = 0.028 and 0.003). Conclusions:The 28 d mortality in children with sepsis complicated with myocardial injury is higher, and the respiratory tract is the most common infection site. The increased hs-cTnT and lactate levels indicate that the prognosis is poor in children with sepsis complicated with myocardial injury. The hs-cTnT and and gender are independent risk factors of prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of the robot - assisted system YunSRobot for remote manipulation endoscopy. Methods When the master of YunSRobot was installed in the gastroenterology office in Chinese PLA General Hospital, the robot slave and upper gastrointestinal simulation model (Takahashi Lm103,Japan) were installed at the same time in the State Key Laboratory of Robotics, Shenyang Institute of Automation. Three physicians were trained to operate the master robotics and performed gastroscopy on the simulation model based on network cloud. Each physician performed 3 procedures of oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) by YunSRobot using traditional manual endoscopy, on-site operating mode, and remote manipulation mode, respectively. The operating time, lumenal anatomic exposure,man-machine interaction and other parameters were recorded. Results The number of standard pictures obtained by traditional manual endoscopy group, on-site operating group and remote manipulation group were 39.9±0.3, 39.8±0.4, 39.9±0.3, respectively. The images of all five lesions could be obtained by each operation. The operating time in the duodenum of remote group was longer than that of on-site group, with average time (78.2±16.0)s vs. (68.9±15.8)s (P=0.021) respectively. As to the operating time on other parts or total time, all three groups were comparable. Although there was a mean delay of (572.1±48.5) ms in remote operation group, the operation was still smooth. However, compared with on-site group, the percentage of clear view time in the duodenum was significantly shortened in remote group: [(77.8±8.2)% vs. (83.9 ± 6.4)% , P=0.024]. Statistically significant difference was detected in percentage of clear view time neither in other sites, nor was in the total operating time between two groups. The operating time in each part of remote group was obviously longer than that of manual group as followings, pharyngeal (27.3±4.2) s vs. (9.2±1.3)s (P<0.001), esophageal (29.7±6.4)s vs. (19.3±1.6)s (P=0.004), stomach (56.7±17.0)s vs. (40.3±7.0)s (P=0.003), pylorus (20.2±5.5)s vs. (9.3±1.3)s (P<0.001), duodenum (78.2±16.0)s vs. (29.3±5.6)s (P<0.001). Thus the total operating time was also longer in remote group as (559.0±87.2)s vs. (253.1±16.6)s (P<0.001). The respective time in pharynx, esophagus, stomach, pylorus, duodenum, or the overall time was all longer in remote group than that in manual group. Conclusions The soft endoscopy robot YunSRobot has satisfactory safety and stability. Remote upper gastrointestinal endoscopy can be completed based on common network and an endoscope simulation model with smooth operation. The inspection time by YunSRobot robot per part and the overall time are longer than those of manual operation on site, still, remote operating time meets the standard of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
