Objective To investigate the effect of ultrasound guided block of pericapsular nerve(PENG)combined with lateral femoral cutaneous nerve(LFCN)on analgesia,stress response and postoperative cognitive function in patients undergoing hip replacement.Methods 102 patients who underwent hip Joint replacement in our hospital from September 2020 to September 2022 were selected and randomly divided into control group(51 cases)and study group(51 cases).The control group was given ultrasound guided iliac fascia space block(FICB),and the study group was given ultrasound guided PENG combined with LFCN block.The perioperative related indicators,postoperative analgesia effect,stress response indicators and postoperative cognitive function of the two groups were compared.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of surgical time between the two groups(P＞0.05).The amount of sufentanil used and the number of analgesic pump used within 48 hours after surgery in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The first postoperative time of getting out of bed and hospitalization in the study group were significantly shorter than those in the control group(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups at 6 h,12 h,24 h,and 48 h after surgery(P＞0.05).The VAS scores of the study group were significantly lower than those of the control group at 6 h,12 h,and 24 h after surgery(P＜0.05).The heart rate(HR)and Mean arterial pressure(MAP)of the control group were higher at the time of block(T1),30 min of block(T1)(T2),and the end of block(T3)than at the time of entry(T0)(P＜0.05).HR and MAP of the study group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05).The MMSE scores of the two groups at 6 h,12 h,24 h,and 48 h after surgery were lower than those before surgery(P＜0.05),but the MMSE scores of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Using ultrasound guided PENG combined with LFCN block for patients undergoing hip Joint replacement can more effectively reduce the amount of opioids and the number of use of analgesia pump,reduce postoperative pain in the exercise state,reduce stress reaction,and have less impact on cognitive function,so as to promote faster recovery of patients.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of thyroid volume in children aged 8 - 10 in Yunnan Province, and provide scientific basis for improving iodine deficiency disorders monitoring.Methods:From March to July 2020, in 129 counties (cities, districts) under the jurisdiction of Yunnan Province, each county (city, district) was divided into 5 sampling areas based on east, west, south, north, and middle. One township was selected from each area, and 40 non-boarding children aged 8 - 10 from one primary school were selected from each township (age balanced, half male and half female) as survey subjects. One random urine sample and household edible salt samples were collected for urine iodine and salt iodine testing, and physical examination and thyroid volume measurement were conducted for children. The influencing factors of thyroid volume were analyzed using Pearson correlation.Results:A total of 24 934 urine samples were collected from children, with a median urine iodine of 233.2 μg/L. A total of 24 933 household edible salt samples were collected from children, the median salt iodine was 24.17 mg/kg, and the qualified rate of iodized salt was 96.63% (24 003/24 839); A total of 24 937 children were examined of their thyroid gland, with a median thyroid volume of 2.62 ml and a goiter rate of 1.12% (280/24 937). Among them, there were 12 410 boys and 12 527 girls, with thyroid volumes of 2.61 and 2.64 ml, respectively. The thyroid volume of boys was positively correlated with age, height, weight, body mass index, body surface area, and salt iodine ( r = 0.15, 0.21, 0.26, 0.18, 0.25, 0.03, P < 0.001). The thyroid volume of girls was positively correlated with age, height, weight, body mass index, and body surface area ( r = 0.17, 0.26, 0.28, 0.17, 0.27, P < 0.001). Conclusion:Children aged 8 - 10 in Yunnan Province are at an iodine excess level; the age, weight, height, body mass index, and body surface area are influencing factors of thyroid volume.

Objective:To investigate the impact of simulator-multidisciplinary treatment (MDT)-problem-based learning (PBL) integrated teaching on the quality of clinical internship teaching in the Gynecology Department.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 86 clinical interns in the Gynecology Department who completed one month of internship at Xijing Hospital, Air Force Medical University from May 2021 to May 2022. The interns who received routine teaching from May to October 2021 were enrolled into control group ( n=43), and those who received simulator-MDT-PBL integrated teaching from November 2021 to May 2022 were enrolled into observation group ( n=43). The two groups were compared for differences in professional abilities (measured by Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale [RIPLS]), humanistic care ability (measured by humanistic care ability scale), critical thinking ability (measured by critical thinking disposition inventory-Chinese version [CTDI-CV]), and autonomous learning ability (measured by college student autonomous learning scale) after one month of teaching.

Objective:To investigate the phylogenetic and antigenic characteristics of hemagglutinin (HA) gene of influenza B/Victoria lineage (BV) viruses in Beijing during the 2021-2022 influenza surveillance season, and to analyze whether the circulating BV viruses match the vaccine strain.Methods:Pharyngeal swab specimens from influenza like-illness (ILI) cases in the 2021-2022 influenza surveillance season were collected from surveillance network labs in Beijing and cultured in MDCK cells and chicken embryo to isolate BV viruses. Nucleic acids of the viruses were extracted, and the HA gene was amplified and sequenced. The nucleotide and amino acid sequence identity of the HA gene was analyzed using MEGA5.0 software. A phylogenetic tree of HA gene was constructed using the maximum likelihood method. The N-glycosylation sites in HA were predicted online. Three-dimensional structure of HA was constructed using SWISS-MODEL homologous modeling. Hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test was performed to analyze the antigenicity of BV viruses.Results:A total of 402 BV viruses were collected and 58 strains with full-length HA gene sequences were chosen for further analysis. Compared with the HA gene of this year′s vaccine strain (B/Washington/02/2019), there were 27 amino acid mutations, 11 of which were located in four different antigenic determinants. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that three subgroups of 1A.3, 1A.3a1, and 1A.3a2 co-circulated in Beijing with 54 strains (54/58, 93.10%) clustered to the Clade 1A.3a2, two strains (2/58, 3.45%) clustered to the Clade 1A.3a1, and two strains (2/58, 3.45%) in the same subgroup (Clade 1A.3) as the vaccine component BV strain in 2021-2022. Compared with the vaccine strain (B/Washington/02/2019), two BV strains had an additional N-glycosylation site at residue 197, while the other 56 strains showed no change in N-glycosylation sites. Antigenic analysis showed that 35 BV strains (35/58, 60.34%) were antigenically similar to the vaccine strain and 23 strains (23/58, 39.66%) were low-response strains.Conclusions:Three subgroups of BV viruses co-circulated in Beijing during the 2021-2022 influenza surveillance season. The predominant subgroup was Clade 1A.3a2 (93.10%), showing a certain genetic distance with the vaccine strain (B/Washington/02/2019). Nearly 40% (39.66%) of the viruses were low-response strains. This study indicated that continuous monitoring of the variations of influenza epidemic strains and timely providing laboratory basis for screening vaccine component strains were the basic technical guarantee for coping with influenza pandemic.

Objective:To understand the epidemic situation of Redondoviridae in Beijing and analyze its epidemiologic characteristics.Methods:Pharyngeal swab samples of healthy people and patients with acute respiratory infection in Beijing, including influenza like cases and severe acute respiratory infection (SARI) cases in hospitals were collected. Real time PCR was used to detect the nucleic acid of Redondoviridae. The positive samples were amplified and sequenced to analyze their species. The age and sex distribution of patients and species distribution of Redondoviridae were obtained through statistical analysis. Multiplex PCR was used to detect other common respiratory pathogens in the positive samples of Redondoviridae in influenza like cases and SARI cases, and the pathogenicity of Redondoviridae was analyzed.Results:The positive rates of Redondoviridae in healthy people and acute respiratory infection cases were 20.48% (189/923) and 11.23% (43/390), respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). The positive rate of male was higher than that of female in the healthy population, and the positive rate of the elderly group was higher than that of the adult group and the underage group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). The positive rate of male patients with acute respiratory tract infection was higher than that of female patients, but there was no significant difference. The proportion of Vientovirus in the positive samples of Redondoviridae was higher than that of Brisavirus, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Among the throat swabs of respiratory tract infection cases, 43 were positive for Redondoviridae, of whom 24 were not detected for other pathogens. Conclusions:Redondoviridae widely exists in healthy people of all age groups in Beijing, and is also found in acute respiratory infection cases. The positive rate of Redondoviridae is different in different ages and genders. Both Vientovirus and Brisavirus were detected, and the proportion of Vientovirus was significantly higher than Brisavirus.

Objective:To characterize the epidemic of influenza in Beijing from 2022 to 2023 and the variation of gene and antigenicity of hemagglutinin (HA) of influenza A H3N2 virus, so as to provide scientific basis for influenza prevention and control in Beijing.Methods:Statistical analysis was carried out on the result of influenza pathogenic monitoring in Beijing from week 14, 2022 to week 20, 2023, and 79 strains of influenza A H3N2 virus were selected at different time and population sources, and their genetic variation and evolution characteristics were analyzed through HA gene amplification sequencing and antigenicity analysis.Results:From week 14, 2022 to week 20, 2023, 24 244 throat swabs of influenza like cases were collected in Beijing, and 4 987 influenza virus nucleic acid positive cases were detected, including 2 749 influenza A H3N2 positive cases, with a detection rate of 11.34%. Among the 79 strains, 50 strains (63.29%) showed low response, 94.44% of the strains from August to November 2022 had low response, and 54.10% of the strains from February to March 2023 had low response, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=8.079, P=0.004). Compared with the vaccine strain A/Darwin/9/2021, the HA gene sequence of 79 strains of influenza A H3N2 showed nucleotide similarity of 97.47% to 98.47% and amino acid similarity of 97.05% to 98.17%. Genetic evolution analysis showed that the 18 strains isolated from August to November 2022 were all distributed in the 3C.2a1b.2a.1a.1 branch, while the 61 strains isolated from February to March 2023 all belonged to the 3C.2a1b.2a.3a.1 branch. Compared with the vaccine strain, there were multiple site mutations distributed at multiple antigenic determinants and receptor binding sites in A, B, C, D, and E. All strains had potential glycosylation sites of 8NST, 22NGT, 38NAT, 45NSS, 63NCT, 126NWT, 133NGT, 246NST, 285NGS, 483NET, while one strain missed 165NVT glycosylation sites; 55 strains between February and March 2023 missed 122NES glycosylation sites. Conclusions:The HA gene locus of influenza A H3N2 virus detected in Beijing from week 14, 2022 to week 20, 2023 showed multiple mutations, continuous monitoring of this subtype variation is crucial.

Objective:To understand the contents of edible salt iodine and urinary iodine of children and pregnant women in Yunnan Province, and to evaluate the iodine nutrition status, so as to provide a basis for scientific prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency disorders (IDD).Methods:From November to December 2020, one county (city) was selected from each prefecture (city), two townships (towns and streets) were selected from each county (city) and two villages (neighborhood committees) were selected from each township (town and street) from each of the 16 prefectures (cities) in Yunnan Province as the investigation sites. A total of 20 non-boarding children (male and female balanced) aged 8 - 10 years old were selected from each primary school in each village (neighborhood committee) to collect salt and urine samples. A total of 80 children were investigated in each county (city). A total of 20 pregnant women were selected from each township (town and street) to collect salt and urine samples. A total of 40 pregnant women were investigated in each county (city). All salt samples and urine samples were tested for iodine contents.Results:A total of 2 009 salt samples and 2 041 urine samples (1 375 for children, 666 for pregnant women) were collected from children aged 8 - 10 years old and pregnant women in 16 counties (cities) of Yunnan Province. Among them, the median salt iodine was 26.0 mg/kg, the coverage rate of iodized salt was 100.0% (2 009/2 009), the qualified rate of iodized salt was 98.7% (1 982/2 009), and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 98.7% (1 982/2 009). The difference of salt iodine content in key populations in different counties (cities) was statistically significant ( H = 258.98, P < 0.01). The median urinary iodine of children aged 8 - 10 years old was 188.5 μg/L. There was statistically significant difference in urinary iodine content among children of different ages ( H = 29.45, P < 0.01), but there was no statistically significant difference in urinary iodine content among children of different genders ( H = 1.43, P > 0.05). In addition, the median urinary iodine of pregnant women was 141.9 μg/L, 52.1% (347/666) was < 150 μg/L. There was statistically significant difference in urinary iodine content of pregnant women in different counties (cities, H = 88.32, P < 0.01). Conclusions:The qualified rate of iodized salt, the coverage rate of iodized salt and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt in key populations of Yunnan Province are more than 90%, and the iodized salt supply is good. Iodine nutrition of children aged 8 - 10 years old is at an appropriate level (100 - 199 μg/L); iodine nutrition of pregnant women is in an state of iodine deficiency ( < 150 μg/L). It is suggested to strengthen IDD monitoring and health education among key populations, improve residents' awareness of disease prevention, and make scientific iodine supplementation.

Objective:To clarify the M protein ( emm gene) types and drug susceptibility characteristic variations of Group A Streptococcus (GAS) in children in Beijing. Methods:The GAS strains isolated from throat swab samples of children diagnosed with scarlet fever and pharyngeal infection in scarlet fever etiology surveillance sentinel hospitals in 16 districts of Beijing in 2018, 2019 and 2021 were analyzed retrospectively.PCR amplification and sequencing were used for emm genotyping, and the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of 10 antibiotics were determined by the broth microdilution method.The data were analyzed using χ2 test and Fisher′ s exact method between groups. Results:A total of 557 GAS strains were collected, and 11 emm genotypes ( emm1, emm3, emm4, emm6, emm11, emm12, emm22, emm75, emm89, emm128, and emm212) were detected.Of 557 strains, 238 trains were of emm1 type (42.73%), 271 strains were of emm12 type (48.65%) and 48 strains were of other emm types (8.62%). The detection rates of emm1, emm12 and other emm type genes in 2018, 2019, and 2021 were [37.50% (105/280 strains), 57.14% (160/280 strains), 5.36% (15/280 strains)], [49.05% (129/263 strains), 39.54% (104/263 strains), 11.41% (30/263 strains)], and [28.57% (4/14 strains), 50.00% (7/14 strains), 21.43% (3/14 strains)], respectively.In children infected with emm12 in 2018 and 2019, there were more children under 6 years old than children over 6 years old (62.50% vs.46.88%, 46.36% vs.30.36%) (χ 2=7.182, 6.973; all P<0.05). Drug susceptibility testing results suggested that 225 randomly selected GAS strains were all 100.00% sensitive to 7 antibiotics including Penicillin, Levofloxacin, Meropenem, Linezolid, Cefotaxime, Cefepime and Vancomycin.The rates of resistance to Erythromycin, Tetracycline and Clindamycin were [88.57% (93/105 strains), 87.62% (92/105 strains), 86.67% (91/105 strains)], and [94.34% (100/106 strains), 94.34% (100/106 strains), 87.74% (93/106 strains)] in 2018 and 2019, respectively.The test strains were 100.00% (14/14 strains) resistant to the above 3 antibiotics in 2021.MIC 50 and MIC 90 values of Penicillin in 2018, 2019, and 2021 were (0.03 mg/L, 0.03 mg/L), (0.03 mg/L, 0.06 mg/L), and (0.06 mg/L, 0.06 mg/L), respectively.Among 225 GAS strains, 207 strains had drug resistance and were resistant to more than one drug.Specifically, 94.69% (196/207 strains) were resistant to Erythromycin, Tetracycline and Clindamycin.About 4.35% (9/207 strains) were resistant to both Erythromycin and Clindamycin.A total of 0.97% (2/207 strains) were resistant to Erythromycin and Tetracycline. Conclusions:The emm genotypes of GAS in children in Beijing are diverse in 2018, 2019 and 2021.The dominant genotypes are emm12 and emm1, and emm12 is the main epidemiological type.GAS strains maintain highly resistant to Erythromycin, Clindamycin and Tetracycline, and sensitive to Penicillin and other antibiotics.However, MIC 50 and MIC 90 of Penicillin shows an ascending trend.

Objective:To establish a nested PCR method to detect the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV), as a supplement to the real-time fluorescent PCR method, and discuss the preliminary application value of this method in clinical diagnosis.Methods:According to the conservative sequences of the 2019-nCoV gene, the nested PCR primers including N gene and S gene, were designed on line. By optimizing the nested PCR reaction systems, the qualitative detection was established by testing N gene and sequencing its PCR product while the preliminary type identification was established by testing S gene and sequencing its PCR product. The sensitivity was evaluated by the gradient dilution of 2019-nCoV positive samples’ nucleic acid and the specificity was evaluated by detecting the human coronavirus OC43, 229E, HKU1, NL63, influenza virus positive samples. The established method was applied to 15 samples with Ct >33 and 15 samples with Ct <33 screened by real-time fluorescent PCR, and the positive amplification result were sequenced and analyzed to verify the result. Results:The established nested PCR method could amplify specific bands of 355 bp N gene fragment and 449 bp S gene fragment. No amplifications occurred in other human coronaviruses samples including 229E、OC43、HKU1、NL63 or in influenza virus samples including H3N2, H1N1(pdm) and B. The minimum detection limit of the N gene fragment could reach Ct value about 37.21. Among the 30 COVID-19 positive samples, the N gene positive coincidence rate detected by nested PCR was 100% (30/30); the S gene positive coincidence rate reached 60% (18/30). 28 samples’ sequences of N gene fragment were completely consistent with 2019-nCoV by BLAST, and the characteristic result of site mutations of 12 samples’ S gene was obtained. Conclusions:A nested PCR method for the specific detection of 2019-nCoV was established, and some characteristic mutations on S gene could be analyzed by sequencing the PCR amplified products. It could be used as a supplement to the real-time fluorescent PCR method.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of magnetic anchor technique for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the treatment of early esophageal cancer.Methods:A self-designed magnetic anchoring device (including an anchor magnet and a target magnet) was used to perform ESD on the hypothesized esophageal lesion mucosa of six isolated esophagus of Beagle dogs. The feasibility and convenience of the operation was evaluated.Results:ESD of 6 isolated esophagus of dogs was successfully completed. Through adjusting the position of anchor magnet, the pulling direction and force of the target magnet on the mucosa could be flexibly controlled, the mucosal peeling surface was fully exposed, and tissue tension was provided to ensure the smooth removal of the diseased mucosa. The entire operation was smooth, and the target magnet was conveniently retained. No target magnet slippage or mucosal laceration occurred during the operation.Conclusion:The magnetic anchor technique is safe and feasible for the ESD, effectively pulling the diseased mucosa in treatment of early esophageal cancer, which can greatly improve the endoscopic operation experience.
