ObjectiveTo understand the process and influencing factors affecting the utilization of influenza vaccination services and vaccination decision-making among the elderly in Shanghai, to explore the delivery of influenza vaccination services and the difficulties faced by the health service system, and to provide guidance for optimizing immunization strategies. MethodsBased on the vaccine hesitancy determinants matrix, semi-structured personal interviews were conducted with stakeholders involved in influenza vaccination services in Shanghai from January to February 2024, using a purposive sampling method. Participants were included until thematic saturation was achieved. Interview data were audio-recorded, transcribed, coded, and organized using NVivo 20 software, and analyzed using the thematic framework method. ResultsA total of 25 interviewees were included, including 9 medical staff, 12 elderly people aged 60 and above, and 4 family members. The study found that Shanghai had a well-managed and standardized influenza vaccination service. However, the promotion of vaccine-related information at the grassroots level was passive and limited. Out-of-pocket payment of the vaccine and cultural beliefs of the elderly negatively impacted vaccination rates. Meanwhile, recommendations from family, friends, and medical staff facilitated vaccination, although the impact varied depending on the type of medical staff. Neighborhood committees in townships and streets played a crucial role in delivering vaccination information to the target population. Additionally, the internet, social media, and the COVID-19 vaccine had both positive and negative impacts on influenza vaccination. Strategic optimization of vaccination should prioritize price concessions, enhance publicity strategies, and improve awareness, professionalism, and willingness among medical and healthcare workers to recommend vaccination. ConclusionThe influenza vaccination service in Shanghai is well-managed and standardized. However, it is essential to consider the influence of family and other support systems on the elderly. It is also necessary to enhance the professionalism, service awareness, and willingness to recommend among the medical staff. Furthermore, systematic interventions and publicity efforts should be effectively integrated with social media and the functions of neighborhood committees.

Objective To analyze the anesthetic effect and hemodynamic impact of oxybutynin(OBI)combined with dexmedetomidine(DEX)on patients undergoing endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy(En-DCR).Methods Patients who underwent En-DCR from February 2024 to May 2024 at Mianyang Wanjiang Eye Hospital were recruited.They were randomly divided into the DEX group(DEX administration only)and the combined group(DEX combined with OLI administration)according to the random number table method.The primary observational index in this study was the 24-h postoperative pain numerical rating scale(NRS)scores.The secondary observation indexes were heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),respiratory recovery time(SRT),extubation time(ET)and awakening time(AT),peak systolic value(PSV),end-diastolic blood flow velocity(EDV),resistance index(RI)and blood flow(BF).The occurrence of adverse events in patients during hospitalization was observed and recorded.Results A total of 80 patients were included in the study,with 40 in each of the DEX group and the combined group.In terms of analgesia,the NRS scores in the combined group were lower than those in the DEX group at T1(within 0.5 h after catheter removal),T2(4 h postoperatively),T3(8 h postoperatively),and T4(24 h postoperatively)(P＜0.05),and the remedial analgesia rate in the combined group was significantly lower than that in the DEX group(P＜0.05).Regarding anesthetic effects,HR and MAP at time points T6(during induction of anesthesia),T7(intraoperatively)and T8(during resuscitation)were lower in the combined group than in the DEX group(P＜0.05);and SRT,ET and AT were shorter in the combined group compared with the DEX group(P＜0.05).In terms of hemodynamics,at 24 h postoperatively,PSV,EDV and BF were significantly higher in both groups compared with those before anesthesia,whereas RI was significantly lower than before anesthesia(P＜0.05);PSV,EDV and BF were higher in the combined group than those in the DEX group,and RI was lower than that in the DEX group(P＜0.05).Regarding adverse reactions,the incidence of adverse reactions in the combined group was significantly lower than that in the DEX group(P＜0.05).Conclusion OLI combined with DEX prophylactic analgesia for patients with En-DCR is effective,not only to reduce postoperative pain,stabilize hemodynamics,shorten the time of extubation and awakening,and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.

Objective:To analyze the normal expression levels of different lung cancer tumor markers(TM)in the cerebrospinal fluid and to explore the influence of serum TM levels and brain parenchymal metastasis,to more accurately determine whether the cerebrospinal fluid TM levels of patients with suspected meningeal metastasis is elevated.Methods:The clinical data of 80 patients diagnosed with non-lepto-meningeal metastasis at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital between January 2015 and February 2024 were collected,including 16 patients without lung cancer and 64 patients with lung cancer.Normal TM levels in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients without lung cancer and the difference in TM levels between the cerebrospinal fluid and serum samples were analyzed.The correlation between serum and cerebrospinal fluid TM levels was also analyzed.We then compared the differences in TM levels in the cerebrospinal fluid between groups with brain parenchymal metastasis and without brain parenchymal metastasis.Results:Normal levels of TPSA,CA19-9,CEA,Cyfra21-1,and SCC in the cerebrospinal fluid were lower than those in the serum(P<0.05);however,the levels of ProGRP and NSE in the cerebrospinal fluid were higher than those in the serum(P<0.05).The levels of TPSA,SCC,ProGRP,NSE,CEA,CA19-9,and Cyfra21-1 in the cerebrospinal fluid did not correlate with those in the serum(all P>0.05).The cerebrospinal fluid levels of TPSA,SCC,ProGRP,and CA19-9 were not significantly increased in patients with brain parenchymal metastasis compared to those in patients without brain parenchymal metastasis(P>0.05).Al-though CEA and Cyfra21-1 levels increased(P<0.05),their median values increased by less than 2 times and were all within the reference range;whereas,the level of NSE in the group with brain parenchymal metastasis was lower than that in the control group.Conclusions:The basal levels of ProGRP and NSE in normal cerebrospinal fluid were significantly higher than those in the serum;whereas,the expression levels of other TM in the cerebrospinal fluid were significantly lower than those in the serum.Whether the levels of TM in the serum were elevated and whether brain parenchymal metastasis was present,did not have a clinically significant impact on the TM levels in the cerebrospinal fluid.

Objective To summarize the single-center experience with indirect surgery(cerebrovascular bypass)for the treatment of giant internal carotid aneurysms(GICAs).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical outcomes of patients with GICAs treated using indirect surgical techniques at our center from May 2016 to May 2023.For patients who tested negative in the balloon occlusion test(BOT),internal carotid artery(ICA)constriction was performed with or without low-flow bypass from the superficial temporal artery(STA)to the middle cerebral artery(MCA).For patients who tested positive in the BOT,ICA ligation was combined with high-flow bypass(external carotid artery-radial artery-M2).Preoperative and postoperative O'Kelly-Marotta(OKM)grading and changes in the maximum diameter of the aneurysm were examined through cerebral angiography.The preoperative and postoperative modified Rankin Scale(mRS)scores and changes in clinical symptoms were followed up to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the indirect surgery.Results A total of 22 patients were included in this study.Sixteen patients underwent ICA constriction with or without STA-MCA bypass,while six patients underwent ICA ligation combined with high-flow bypass.Postoperative OKM grades reached C/D in 50% (11/22)of the patients,showing a statistically significant improvement compared to preoperative grades(P<0.0001).Postoperative or final imaging follow-up showed that the size of aneurysms was decreased in 19 patients,remained unchanged in 2 patients,and increased in 1 patient,which reached a statistically significant difference compared to preoperative measurements(t=5.439,P<0.001).Follow-up results indicated that the mRS scores of the 22 patients decreased significantly compared to preoperative scores(t=2.531,P=0.019).Conclusion In the era of neurointervention,indirect surgical techniques remain an important complementary approach for the treatment of refractory or recurrent GICAs.

The Omicron family of SARS-CoV-2 variants are currently driving the COVID-19 pandemic. Here we analyzed the clinical laboratory test results of 9911 Omicron BA.2.2 sublineages-infected symptomatic patients without earlier infection histories during a SARS-CoV-2 outbreak in Shanghai in spring 2022. Compared to an earlier patient cohort infected by SARS-CoV-2 prototype strains in 2020, BA.2.2 infection led to distinct fluctuations of pathophysiological markers in the peripheral blood. In particular, severe/critical cases of COVID-19 post BA.2.2 infection were associated with less pro-inflammatory macrophage activation and stronger interferon alpha response in the bronchoalveolar microenvironment. Importantly, the abnormal biomarkers were significantly subdued in individuals who had been immunized by 2 or 3 doses of SARS-CoV-2 prototype-inactivated vaccines, supporting the estimation of an overall 96.02% of protection rate against severe/critical disease in the 4854 cases in our BA.2.2 patient cohort with traceable vaccination records. Furthermore, even though age was a critical risk factor of the severity of COVID-19 post BA.2.2 infection, vaccination-elicited protection against severe/critical COVID-19 reached 90.15% in patients aged ≽ 60 years old. Together, our study delineates the pathophysiological features of Omicron BA.2.2 sublineages and demonstrates significant protection conferred by prior prototype-based inactivated vaccines.

This article introduces a high-throughput molecular screening chip： peptide arrays. As a kind of biochip， the peptide arrays are easy to synthesis， stable in probe chemistry， high-throughput in screening and highly specific compared with other biochips. To analyze the new high-throughput data， researchers have recently proposed a series of deep learning and bioinformatics methods to study the binding characteristics of peptide probes and target molecules. Those algorithms could be used to predict the binding affinity of protein targets against peptides. Moreover， peptide arrays could also play important roles in analyzing protein-protein interactions，screening novel drug peptides， disease diagnosis and general health assessment based on recent reports. The application of this new technology could provide novel insights into public health research.

ObjectiveWith the increase in coffee consumption， its impact on health has garnered significant attention. However， the relationship between coffee intake and cancer risk remains controversial in epidemiological studies. To summarize the most reliable evidence on coffee consumption and cancer risk， we conducted a comprehensive review of meta-analyses examining the association between coffee consumption and cancer risk in various populations. MethodsMeta-analyses of observational studies were conducted， utilizing searches of the PubMed and Web of Science databases to identify associations between coffee intake and cancer risk. ResultsA total of 24 observational studies comprising 76 non-overlapping associations were included in this umbrella review. Coffee intake was found to be associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer， brain cancer， colon cancer， colorectal cancer， endometrial cancer， liver cancer， melanoma， non-melanoma， oral cancer， and oral/pharyngeal cancer. Conversely， coffee intake was associated with a high risk of urothelial carcinoma and bladder cancer. ConclusionModerate consumption of coffee has a wide range of potential benefits in reducing the risk of cancer. Further well-designed randomized controlled trials， taking into account other factors that may have contributed to bias， are needed to investigate the association between coffee consumption and cancer in other anatomical sites.

Objective To investigate the surgical outcomes and strategies selection of endoscopic endonasal approach and craniotomy in the treatment of cranial base chordomas.Methods Thirty-one patients diagnosed pathologically with cranial base chordoma in Tianjin huanhu hospital from Jan.2010 to Sep.2020 were analyzed retrospectively.The patients were divided into the endoscopic endonasal group and the craniotomy microscope group according to the different surgical approaches.The surgical results and follow-up between the two groups were compared.Results In the endoscopic endonasal group,there were 7 cases of gross total resection,9 cases of subtotal resection and 2 cases of partial resection.The main complications included death in 2 cases,cerebrospinal fluid leakage in 8 cases,cranial nerve injury in 2 cases and hypopituitarism in 1 case.In the craniotomy microscope group,there were 2 cases of gross total resection,10 cases of subtotal resection,and 1 case of partial resection.The main complications included cerebrospinal fluid leakage in 1 case,cranial nerve injury in 3 cases,epilepsy in 1 case and epidural hematoma in 1 case.There was no statistical significance in the resection rate between the two groups(P＞0.05).The rate of cerebrospinal fluid leakage in the endoscopic group was significantly higher than that in the craniotomy microscope group,and the comparison was statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant between the two groups for tumor recurrence or progression.Conclusions The endoscopic endonasal approaches for resection of cranial base chordomas have improved the gross total resection rate,but craniotomy is still an important surgical method for tumor resection.It is necessary to select an appropriate surgical approach according to the lesion location and pattern of tumor growth.

Objective:To investigate the application of in situ interposition bypass surgery in the treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 18 patients with complex intracranial aneurysms treated by the in situ interposition bypass at the Department of Neurosurgery of Clinical College of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Neurorehabilitation, Tianjin Medical University from July 2015 to September 2022. Fourteen aneurysms were found being located in the middle cerebral artery(MCA), 2 in anterior cerebral artery(ACA), 1 in posterior inferior cerebellar artery(PICA) and 1 in posterior cerebral artery(PCA). Fourteen bypass surgery were with radial artery(RA) vessel grafts, 3 with superficial temporal artery(STA) vessel grafts and 1 with occipital artery(OA) vessel graft. All patients underwent a surgical procedure of in situ interposition bypass with end-to-end anastomosis after resection of the aneurysms. I-type grafts were applied in 13 bypasses, V-type grafts in 3 bypasses, and Y-type grafts in 2 bypasses. All patients had undergone postoperative Digital subtraction angiography(DSA) or CTA reviews. Glasgow Outcome Scale(GOS) was used to assess postoperative outcome. Scheduled postoperative follow-ups were conducted on all patients.Results:Two patients suffered hemiplegia after surgery. One patient had transient aphasia and it recovered in 3 months. No new neurological dysfunction was observed in the rest of patients. Postoperative DSAs showed good patency of the anastomoses and grafted vessels, except one anastomosis that had a severe stenosis, and no aneurysm was shown. The follow-ups lasted for 3 to 89 months and no recurrence of aneurysm was observed. Sixteen patients achieved GOS score 5 and 2 with GOS score 3.Conclusion:In situ interposition bypass surgery is a safe and effective procedure for the treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms.
