Objective:To investigate the prevalence of norovirus and the correlation between norovirus infection and stool traits and clinical symptoms in children with acute gastroenteritis during 2021-2022.Method:A total of 2 195 anal swab samples were collected from cases of acute gastroenteritis in Beijing Children 's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2021 to December 2022. PCR fluorescent probe assay was performed to detect norovirus，the clinical information and test results were performed by statistical analysis. Results:The detection rate of norovirus was 19.09%（419/2 195）in 2 195 children. The detection rates of male and female were 17.80%（244/1 371）and 21.24%（175/824），respectively，with statistically significant differences between genders（ χ2=3.945, P<0.05）. The positivity rate of noroviruses was higher in aged 1 month to 3 years［29.09%（64/220）~40.69%（94/231）］，especially in 1 year［40.69%（94/231）］. The norovirus detection rate ranged from 2.44%（2/82）to 35.84%（62/173）in different months，with a high detection rate between January and March，higher in the winter and spring［28.36%（150/529），21.07%（146/693）］，showing a clear seasonal distribution.Clinical symptoms of both vomiting and diarrhea were significantly more common among norovirus positive than negative children，the difference was statistically significant（ χ2=57.29, P<0.05）. Conclusion:In the high incidence season of winter and spring，for infants and young children aged 1 month to 3 years with diarrhea accompanied by vomiting symptoms，especially those aged 1 year，it is recommended to undergo norovirus related testing in time. Early treatment and isolation measures should be taken for diagnosed children to reduce cross infection and prevent outbreaks.

Objective To identify the causative variants in 5 Chinese families with tuberous sclerosis complex(TSC)to provide genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.Methods Genetic counseling and clinical diagnosis were performed in 8 patients from five unrelated TSC families by teleconsultation.With informed consent obtained from the participants,3 to 5 mL peripheral blood samples were collected from the probands and their family mem-bers for the extraction of genomic DNA.Candidate pathogenic variants were screened by panel sequencing(PS).The candidate pathogenic variants found in TSC1 and TSC2 by PS were validated by PCR-Sanger sequencing and bioinformatics analysis.Results All the pathogenic mutations were identified in the probands and their available family members.Causative variants in TSC1 or TSC2 were detected in all patients,including three reported variants and two novel variants.The two novel variants,TSC2:c.245G＞A and TSC2:c.235delG,which were predicted to cause the nonsense variant p.(Trp82?)and the frameshift variant p.(Val79Lysfs27?)respectively was believed to introduce premature stop codons.The analysis of family co-segregation and bioinformatics were identified as very positive factors for pathogenicity.Conclusions This result provides more evidences for the genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis in these families and expand the spectrum of TSC2 pathogenic variants.

Objective To analyze the infectious indicators,HBV s gene mutations and changes in bioinformatics char-acteristics of HBV DNA+/HBsAg-blood donor.Methods A sample of HBV DNA+/HBsAg-was screened by PCR meth-od,and HBsAg/HBsAb/HBeAg/HBeAb/HBcAb of HBV in the sample were detected by ELISA and chemiluminescence methods.The mutation of the HBVs gene fragment in the sample was sequenced and analyzed,and the bioinformatics analy-sis was performed using analysis software.Results The sample showed HBV DNA+,HBsAg-,HBsAb+,HBeAg+,HBe-Ab-and HBcAb+,with an amino acid unit point mutation(P151L)occurred in the HBV s gene,and the spatial structure changed.Conclusion The spatial structural changes in the gene sequence of HBVs may be the reason for the appearance of serological HBsAg-/HBsAb+/HBV DNA+in the test results.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of cognitive behavior therapy(CBT)combined with attention training technique(ATT)on auditory hallucinations of schizophrenia.Methods:Sixty schizophrenia patients with au-ditory hallucinations were recruited according to the criteria of International Classification of Diseases,tenth Edition(ICD-10).They were randomly divided into the CBT group(30 cases,26 cases completed)and the CBT+ATT group(30 cases,25 cases completed).The CBT group received only 4 weeks of cognitive behavioral intervention for auditory hallucinations,and the CBT+ATT group received 6 weeks of attention training technology intervention based on cognitive behavioral intervention.At baseline and after 12 weeks,the Psychotic Symptom Rating Scales-Auditory Hallucinations(PSYRATS-AH)and Scale of Social function in Psychosis Inpatients(SSPI)were used to evaluate the auditory hallucinations symptoms and social functioning of the two groups,and the Attentional Control Scale(ACS)was used to evaluate patients'attentional control ability of the CBT+ATT group.Results:After 12 weeks,the differences(post intervention score-baseline score)of PSYRATS-AH total scores[(-6.8±2.2)vs.(-4.2±1.5)],auditory hallucinations'frequency,duration,number of distresses,control of voices were lower in the CBT+ATT group than in the CBT group(Ps＜0.05),and the differences of the SSPI total scores[(13.9± 2.9)vs.(11.6±4.2)]and scores of Factor I and Factor Ⅲ were higher in the CBT+ATT group than in the CBT group(Ps＜0.05).Conclusion:This study shows cognitive behavioral therapy combined with attention training technique could improve auditory hallucinations and social function more effectively in patients with schizophrenia.

Objective To analysis the current situation of hospitalized patients seeking medical treatment across different counties and the influencing factors from both the inflow and outflow perspectives.Methods Using the fourth quarter data of 2019 from the medical record index,with Sichuan Province as the research area,it analyzed the spatial flow of patients based on the patient's county of residence,the county where the hospital is located,and the number of mobile patients.By combining information at the individual patient level,healthcare institution level,and county level,it established two-level random intercept logistic regression analysis to explore the influencing factors from the perspectives of inflow and outflow.Results The proportion of patients seeking medical treatment across different counties in Sichuan is 22.90%.The majority of patients,with a population of over one thousand,are concentrated in the eastern region.However,the western region has a higher proportion of patients seeking medical treatment across counties.Chengdu and Mianyang are both the largest sources and recipients of patient flows.Being Han Chinese(49%,P＜0.001),male(2%,P＜0.001),Stable income(6%,P＜0.001)and better medical insurance coverage(16%,P＜0.001)at the patient level,as well as better healthcare resources at the institutional level,and higher economic(20%,P＜0.001)and medical levels(5%,P＜0.001)at the district and county level promote patients seeking medical treatment across counties.Conclusion Hospitalized patients in Sichuan Province tend to seek medical treatment from surrounding counties towards the county centers,as well as flowing to Chengdu from various locations.Promoting hierarchical medical treatment and encouraging patients to seek appropriate medical services can be achieved through strengthening patient health education,improving healthcare service levels,and promoting coordinated development between the economy and medical industry.

Objective:To investigate the related risk factors of surgical appendectomy after endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) in children.Methods:From September 2019 to November 2023 at the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University,the data from all related children with appendectomy after ERAT were analyzed. The general situation and main clinical manifestations of the children were collected. According to the effect of ERAT,the patients were divided into transfer to surgical group and appendicitis recurrence group by the reasons and time of transfer to surgical treatment. The indexes such as ERAT and reoperation process and pathological types of appendix after operation were collected,and the clinical experience was summarized.Results:Among the 242 children who underwent ERAT,32 cases underwent appendectomy again,including 19 males and 13 females,with an average age of（9.16±2.77）years,and the reoperation rate was 13.2%. The clinical manifestation was abdominal pain (32 cases,100.0%),mainly right lower abdominal pain (28 cases,87.5%),and the main duration was less than 3 months (30 cases,93.8%). Abdominal ultrasound or CT before ERAT mainly indicated appendicitis (11 cases,34.4%) and appendicitis complicated with appendiceal calculus (11 cases,34.4%). There were 9 children in transferred to surgical group,of which 5 cases were transferred to surgery because of ERAT intubation failure,and 4 cases were transferred to surgery because of appendix perforation or abscess. Postoperative pathology showed acute suppurative appendicitis in 5 cases and acute gangrenous appendicitis in 4 cases. There were 23 children in appendicitis recurrence group,whose abdominal pain was relieved after ERAT,but their symptoms were repeated after discharge. After clinical evaluation,they were diagnosed as recurrent appendicitis and underwent surgical appendectomy. Most of them were reoperated within 6 months after ERAT (21 cases,91.3%).Postoperative pathology was mainly chronic appendicitis (10 cases,43.5%).Conclusion:Acute suppurative appendicitis and acute gangrenous appendicitis are prone to catheterization or endoscopic failure during ERAT,and there is a high risk of surgical transfer. ERAT may relieve the symptoms of chronic appendicitis in children. If the symptoms are repeated,surgery is still needed to remove the appendix.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the treatment status of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in China.Methods:Data of chronic phase (CP) and accelerated phase (AP) CML patients diagnosed from January 2006 to December 2022 from 77 centers, ≥18 years old, and receiving initial imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib-therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China with complete data were retrospectively interrogated. The choice of initial TKI, current TKI medications, treatment switch and reasons, treatment responses and outcomes as well as the variables associated with them were analyzed.Results:6 893 patients in CP ( n=6 453, 93.6%) or AP ( n=440, 6.4%) receiving initial imatinib ( n=4 906, 71.2%), nilotinib ( n=1 157, 16.8%), dasatinib ( n=298, 4.3%) or flumatinib ( n=532, 7.2%) -therapy. With the median follow-up of 43 ( IQR 22-75) months, 1 581 (22.9%) patients switched TKI due to resistance ( n=1 055, 15.3%), intolerance ( n=248, 3.6%), pursuit of better efficacy ( n=168, 2.4%), economic or other reasons ( n=110, 1.6%). The frequency of switching TKI in AP patients was significantly-higher than that in CP patients (44.1% vs 21.5%, P<0.001), and more AP patients switched TKI due to resistance than CP patients (75.3% vs 66.1%, P=0.011). Multi-variable analyses showed that male, lower HGB concentration and ELTS intermediate/high-risk cohort were associated with lower cytogenetic and molecular responses rate and poor outcomes in CP patients; higher WBC count and initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher response rates; Ph + ACA at diagnosis, poor PFS. However, Sokal intermediate/high-risk cohort was only significantly-associated with lower CCyR and MMR rates and the poor PFS. Lower HGB concentration and larger spleen size were significantly-associated with the lower cytogenetic and molecular response rates in AP patients; initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher treatment response rates; lower PLT count, higher blasts and Ph + ACA, poorer TFS; Ph + ACA, poorer OS. Conclusion:At present, the vast majority of newly-diagnosed CML-CP or AP patients could benefit from TKI treatment in the long term with the good treatment responses and survival outcomes.

Objective:To explore the effects of applying peer-assisted learning (PAL) combined with modular teaching in physiology education, and to explore a more suitable mode for physiology teaching and learning.Methods:We selected a total of 89 undergraduate medical students of grade 2022 from a university offering physiology courses from February 28 to June 30, 2022. They were assigned using a random number table into experimental class (44 students) and control class (45 students). The experimental class adopted PAL with modular teaching, while the control class adopted the online and offline hybrid teaching method. The two classes were compared for teaching effects in terms of the completion rate of task points, final assessment scores, and questionnaire results. SPSS 19.0 was used to perform the independent samples t-test and the chi-square test. Results:The final exam scores for the objective questions of the experimental class and the control class were (43.04±3.25) and (40.24±8.64), respectively; the scores for the subjective items were (44.49±2.80) and (39.21±5.71), respectively; and the total scores were (87.53±4.24) and (79.40±12.08), respectively, all with significant differences between the two classes. There were significant differences in students' learning autonomy, micro-video preview rate, problem discussion participation rate, unit self-test participation rate, and after-class homework completion rate. The questionnaire survey showed that students in the experimental class believed that this teaching model was helpful for improving students' comprehensive qualities.Conclusions:PAL combined with modular teaching can effectively improve physiology teaching effects and students' learning autonomy and comprehensive abilities.

Most patients with stroke experience obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which has a negative impact on functional outcome and cognitive function in patients with stroke and is associated with increased mortality. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is a gold standard for treating OSA. This article reviews the effect of CPAP on functional outcome and cognitive function in stroke patients with OSA.
