Objective:To develope a titanium specimen with good osteogenic activity through fabrication of a composite hydroxyapatite coating on ordered micro-/nanotextured titanium surface.Methods:An ordered micro-/nanotextured structure was prepared on the surface of titanium (the control), and then hydroxyapatite was deposited on the as-prepared ordered micro-/nanotextured structure by alternative loop immersion method. The ordered micro-/nanotextured structures before and after hydroxyapatite deposition were denoted as HA and MN, respectively. Surface morphology was observed using a scanning electron microscope. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSC) were seeded on the surface of three different materials. Cell morphology was observed with a scanning electron microscope. Cell adhesion and cell proliferation were evaluated using 4', 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole staining and cell counting kit-8 assay, respectively. Extracellular matrix mineralization and the expression levels of osteogenesis-related genes were evaluated by alizarin red staining and real-time quantitative PCR, respectively. Each group has three samples in every experiment.Results:After alternative loop immersing, the MN's original microholes (20 μm in diameter) were retained, and the uniform petal-like hydroxyapatite was deposited on the MN's original titania nanotubes (70 nm in diameter). Compared with the control, BMMSC on MN and HA elongated further and intersected along the micron structure with noticeable pseudopodia and pseudoplates, and the trend was more pronounced especially on HA. The number of early adherent cells on HA was remarkably larger than that on the control and MN at each time point ( P<0.05). On day 1, the A value of cell proliferation on HA was significantly higher than that on the control and MN ( P<0.05). The A value of cell proliferation on HA was significantly lower than that on the control and MN on day 3 ( P<0.05). On day 7, the A value of cell proliferation on HA was significantly lower than that on MN ( P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference in the A value of cell proliferation between HA and the control on day 7 ( P>0.05). The Avalue of extracellular matrix mineralization on HA (0.607±0.011) was significantly higher than that on the control and MN (0.268±0.025 and 0.522±0.022, respectively) ( t=-0.25, P<0.001; t=-0.34, P<0.001). The expression levels of bone related genes on HA were significantly higher than those on the control and MN ( P<0.05). Conclusions:HA could promote the BMMSC adhesion and osteogenic differentiation, support BMMSC proliferation, and demonstrate good osteogenic activity.

To describe and evaluate the clinical studies of postoperative pain sensitization caused by sleep deprivation through the evidence map system, understand the distribution of evidence in this field, and provide reference for subsequent evidence research. A computer-based search of PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database from inception to August 2023 was conducted to obtain intervention studies, observational studies and systematic reviews/Meta-analysis of postoperative pain sensitization caused by sleep deprivation. The research characteristics and methodological quality were analyzed and evaluated. The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews, the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) and the AMSTAR-2 scale were used to evaluate the quality of the included studies, and the evidence was comprehensively analyzed and displayed by means of bubble chart, table and text. A total of 35 observational studies (31 cohort studies and 4 case-control studies), 15 randomized controlled trials and 4 systematic reviews/Meta-analyses were included. The number of publications increased rapidly after 2018 and peaked in 2022, and clinical studies in this field mainly focused on cohort studies, with fewer randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews/Meta-analysis studies. The results of the evidence map showed that in terms of quality, 22 studies were 'high quality', 24 studies were 'medium quality', and 8 studies were 'low quality'.Thirty studies showed that sleep deprivation could induce postoperative pain sensitization. Only 2 studies suggested that sleep disorders were not significantly associated with postoperative pain sensitization, and ten studies were uncertain whether sleep deprivation could induce postoperative pain sensitization. Overall evidence shows that sleep deprivation can induce postoperative pain sensitization, but the evaluation dimensions are limited and the methodological quality of the included literature needs to be improved. More high-quality, large-sample and standardized clinical studies should be carried out in the future to provide better scientific basis for clinical work.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features, treatment, and outcomes of fetal/neonatal atrial flutter (AFL) at the onset of the perinatal period to improve the management of this condition.Methods:This retrospective study analyzed the clinical data, treatment, and follow-up results of fetal/neonatal AFL cases transferred to Shanghai Children's Medical Center from November 2013 to August 2021. Clinical characteristics, cardioversion procedures, and outcomes were summarized. Descriptive method was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 21 fetuses/neonates presenting with AFL in the perinatal period were involved in this study, including 17 males and four females. Ten of them were born at full term, and 11 were preterms. All of the patients were delivered by cesarean section at 32 to 41 gestational weeks [ (36.6±1.9) weeks] with a birth weight of 2 130 to 4 450g [ (3 059±528) g]. Increased fetal heart rate was all detected after 32 weeks of gestation, and three of them were diagnosed with AFL by fetal echocardiography before being born. The heart rate remained elevated in all cases after birth. All were diagnosed as AFL based on an electrocardiogram on the day of birth, which showed a 2 to 6 over one ratio of atrioventricular conduction. Among the six cases of cardiac insufficiency and low blood pressure complicated by dyspnea and cyanosis, the symptoms were relieved in four cases after mask oxygenation and two cases after ventilation. Among the 21 cases, one was converted spontaneously to normal sinus rhythm and the other 20 recovered after medication or electrical cardioversion. Seven cases were initially treated by drug conversion with a success rate of 5/7 and hospitalized for 23 d (13-25 d). There was one with cardiac insufficiency before treatment and three newly developed cardiac insufficiency during treatment among the seven cases. Thirteen cases were offered electrical cardioversion initially, and the success rate of cardioversion was 12/13. There were five cases of cardiac insufficiency before treatment, while no new cases of cardiac insufficiency was reported during treatment. The duration of hospitalization was 11 d (9-14 d). Apart from one case, the rest 20 infants were followed up from one month to eight years old, and no recurrence was reported.Conclusions:For fetal/neonatal AFL with the onset during the perinatal period, the symptoms mainly manifest in late pregnancy. Its diagnosis depends on fetal echocardiography before birth or electrocardiogram after birth, and electrical cardioversion is a fast and effective measure. While the prognosis of perinatal-onset AFL is generally good.

Objective:To study the clinical characteristics of neonatal community-acquired Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Omicron variant infection.Methods:From March 30 to May 15, 2022, the epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations and outcomes of neonatal cases of community-acquired COVID-19 Omicron variant infection admitted to the isolation ward of our hospital were analyzed.Results:A total of 7 neonates infected with community-acquired COVID-19 Omicron variant were treated, including 3 males and 4 females. All of them were term infants with clear epidemiological exposure history. The infection was originated from caregivers of close contact (parents or babysitters). The main clinical symptoms was upper respiratory tract infection, including fever (6 cases), nasal congestion (6 cases), cough (5 cases), runny nose (2 cases), poor appetite (2 cases) and diarrhea (1 case). On admission, no abnormalities were found in blood routine examination and C-reactive protein (CRP). All but one case had normal serum amyloid A (SAA). No obvious abnormalities were found on chest X-ray. All patients were isolated in single-patient rooms after admission. They received standard symptomatic treatment and regular nucleic acid tests. The first negative nucleic acid results came on median 17 d(8~26 d) after the onset of the disease. The patients were discharged after two consecutive (24 h apart) nucleic acid tests with CT value ≥35 and continued health-monitor at home. On discharge, 5 patients had nasal congestion and 2 of them had cough. During the follow-up 4~6 weeks after discharge, all patients gradually recovered without positive nucleic acid results.Conclusions:All 7 neonates with community-acquired COVID-19 Omicron variant infection have epidemiological exposure history. The main clinical symptoms are long-lasting upper respiratory tract infections. It takes a relatively long time for the nucleic acid to turn negative, however, the overall short-term prognosis is good.

Objective:To construct a management plan for postoperative paralytic ileus (PI) in spinal surgery patients and explore its effect.Methods:The management plan for PI in spinal surgery patients was constructed based on literature retrieval and expert consultation. From July 2020 to June 2021, 295 patients with spinal surgery of Spine Surgery Department in Yancheng Third People's Hospital were selected by convenience sampling. The patients from January to June 2021 were in the experimental group ( n=152) , and the patients from July to December 2020 were in the control group ( n=143) . The control group adopted routine nursing, while the experimental group received PI management plan of spinal surgery on the basis of routine nursing. We compared the abdominal distension grading, first exhaust time, defecation time, PI incidence, anal exhaust utilization rate, average hospitalization day and patient satisfaction between the two groups at 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours after surgery. Results:After intervention, there was no statistical difference in the level of abdominal distension between the two groups at 12, 24 and 36 hours ( P>0.05) . The level of abdominal distension in the experimental group at 48 hours and 72 hours were both lower than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The time of first exhaust and defecation of patients in the experimental group were shorter than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . The incidence of PI in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05) . The satisfaction of patients in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05) . The utilization rate of anal exhaust in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05) . There was no statistical difference in average hospitalization days between the two groups ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:PI management plan for patients with spinal surgery can reduce the first exhaust time, defecation time, PI incidence, and improve patient satisfaction, which can provide a basis for standardizing the management of PI for patients with spinal surgery.

Objective:To study the predictive value of hour-specific total serum bilirubin(TSB) nomogram combined with clinical risk factors in the risk of hyperbilirubinemia.Method:Perinatal clinical data of newborns born in Shanghai Pudong New Area Health Care Hospital for Women and Children, Shanghai Pudong New Area People's Hospital and Shanghai Pudong Hospital from August 2017 to July 2018 were collected in this prospective study. Transcutaneous bilirubin (TcB) was monitored before discharge from hospital. Enrolled neonates were followed up for 28 days. The patients were assigned to neonatal hyperbilirubinemia group (NHB) and non-hyperbilirubinemia group (Non-HB) according to the occurrence of hyperbilirubinemia. The predictive value of models for the risk of hyperbilirubinemia was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and Logistic regression analysis.Result:A total of 8 664 newborns were included in this study, with 1 196 cases of hyperbilirubinemia, with an incidence of 13.8%. Logistic regression analysis showed that maternal blood type O, premature rupture of membranes, male gender, gestational age 35~37 weeks, subcutaneous ecchymosis/cranial edema, and breastfeeding were independent risk factors for NHB ( P<0.05). The area under receiver operative characteristic curve (ROC) of predischarge bilirubin risk zone only was 0.874(95% CI 0.861~0.885, P<0.05)and for all independent risk factors was 0.664 (95% CI 0.647~0.680, P<0.05). The area under ROC curve was 0.891 (95% CI 0.880~0.902, P<0.05) by combining predischarge bilirubin risk zone with clinical risk factors. Conclusion:Predischarge bilirubin risk zone combined with clinical risk factors can reasonably predict neonatal hyperbilirubinemia well.

ObjectiveTo investigate the experience and attitude of discrimination among family members of hospitalized patients with schizophrenia.Methods A total of 83 family members of hospitalized patients with schizophrenia were investigated using questionnaires of families experienced by discrimination and families' view on social discrimination of patients with mental illness.Results In the study,the three most common experiences included:68.7% of family members kept patients' schizophrenia as a secret in fear of discrimination;48.2% of family members failed in love or divorced because of discrimination;40.7% of family members were despised by neighbors. For the attitude of family members to discrimination,84.3% of family members thought that discrimination put too much stress on family members;79.5% of family members thought that social discrimination to patients with schizophrenia were more severe than to other disabled patients;71.0% of family members thought that social discrimination reduced their social activities;43.3% of family members thought that people discriminated patients with schizophrenia;and 77.1% of family members thought that in the past 20 years there was no reduction in the discrimination of patients with mental illness.Conclusions Discrimination commonly exists in schizophrenia patients' families and seriously affects family members both on psychological and social life. Doctors and nurses should assess the discrimination as part of the standard work not only for patients with mental illness but also for the family members,identify the high risk individual and help family members reduce the effects of discrimination on their lives.
