Objective:
To explore the relationship between fruit intake and the risk of overweight with obesity in children, so as to provide references for the prevention of childhood obesity.
Methods:
From September to November 2014, a stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 6 369 children aged 6-12 from two elementary schools of a country in rural Chongqing for physical examinations and questionnaire surveys, and 1 814 children in grades 1-2 at baseline were followed up from March to May 2019. The relationship between fruit intake and the prevalence of overweight and obesity was analyzed.
Results:
According to the percentile of fruit intake, the 6 369 children at baseline were assigned to three groups: Q 1 (< P 33.3 , fruit intake <100 g/d), Q 2 ( P 33.3 - P 66.7 , fruit intake:100-214.3 g/d), and Q 3 (> P 66.7 , fruit intake >214.3 g/d). For the baseline survey results, children in the Q 2 group had a lower weight and Body Mass Index (BMI) ( P <0.05); the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children in the Q 1 group was the highest (32.03%), and the prevalence of overweight and obesity among boys in the Q 2 group was the lowest (31.94%) after gender stratification ( P <0.05). The follow up survey results showed no significant differences between the three groups in terms of changes in height, weight, and BMI ( P >0.05); but the prevalence of obesity among youth in the Q 2 group was the lowest (5.07%, P <0.05). Compared with youth in the Q 2 group, the risk of obesity was higher among those in the Q 1 group at baseline survey ( OR=1.41, 95%CI=1.10-1.81, P <0.05), and was higher among those in the Q 3 group at follow up survey ( RR= 1.83, 95%CI=1.21-2.75, P <0.05).
Conclusion
Deviating from moderate fruit intake may increase the likelihood of overweight and obesity in children, and it is recommended that children are encouraged to consume fruits as part of a well balanced diet to prevent the occurrence of obesity.

The condition of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) complicated by corona virus 2019 disease (COVID-19) is complex. sTBI can significantly increase the probability of COVID-19 developing into severe or critical stage, while COVID-19 can also increase the surgical risk of sTBI and the severity of postoperative lung lesions. There are many contradictions in the treatment process, which brings difficulties to the clinical treatment of such patients. Up to now, there are few clinical studies and therapeutic norms relevant to sTBI complicated by COVID-19. In order to standardize the clinical treatment of such patients, Critical Care Medicine Branch of China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Healthcare and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate the Chinese expert consensus on clinical treatment of adult patients with severe traumatic brain injury complicated by corona virus infection 2019 ( version 2023) based on the joint prevention and control mechanism scheme of the State Council and domestic and foreign literatures on sTBI and COVID-19 in the past 3 years of the international epidemic. Fifteen recommendations focused on emergency treatment, emergency surgery and comprehensive management were put forward to provide a guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of sTBI complicated by COVID-19.

Objective:To analyze and summarize the implementation effect of basic essential surgical training (BEST) course of laparoscopic skills over the past 10 years and the practical experience in updating course content and models.Methods:The pre-class assessment questionnaires, basic laparoscopic operation assessment results, and post-class assessment questionnaires of the students who participated in the BEST course of laparoscopic skills were collected. According to the period of the course construction, the students were divided into two groups, namely students who used the course of single training system in the early stage (traditional group) and students who used the course integrating a variety of training systems after the course model was updated in the later stage (test group). The two groups were compared for the scores of track circle moving, tunnel crossing, and high and low columns, as well as their subjective evaluation of course setting and implementation effect. The t-test, Wilcoxon test, or chi-square test was conducted according to the data type using SPSS 13.0. Results:The time for 150 traditional group students to complete track circle moving, tunnel crossing, and high and low columns was 1.08 min (0.81 min, 1.60 min), 2.20 min (1.60 min, 3.27 min), and 4.86 min (3.28 min, 6.36 min), respectively, while the time for 75 test group students to complete the three operations was 1.27 min (0.87 min, 1.83 min), 2.57 min (1.58 min, 4.07 min), and 4.35 min (2.90 min, 6.42 min), respectively, with no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). In terms of students' subjective evaluation of the course, a higher percentage of the test group students were satisfied with classroom environment, teaching method arrangement, training equipment, training opportunities, helping clinical work, and meeting pre-class expectations than those in the traditional group. Conclusion:The constantly updated BEST course can ensure the training quality of trainees and obtain their higher satisfaction. The benefits of this course in clinical practice can be further verified through long-term follow-up of these trainees.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between antibacterial treatment scheme and prognosis, and to analyze the mortality risk factors of bloodstream infection with carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP).Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted. The CRKP isolated from clinical venous blood samples in the First Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital between January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2018(not included from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2017) was collected. According to relevant standards, a total of 50 patients with bloodstream infection with CRKP were included. The patients were divided into death (19 cases) or survival (31 cases) group according to their hospitalization outcomes, and clinical data and antibacterial treatment scheme after infection were collected. The clinical features of the two groups and the correlation between different antibacterial treatment regimens and prognosis were compared. Logistics regression model was used to analyze the risk factors for death in CRKP-infected patients.Results:The all-cause mortality rate of patients with CRKP bloodstream infection during hospitalization was 38%(19/50). The age ((66.89±18.13) vs. (55.06±14.39) years old, t=2.555, P=0.014), charlson's comorbidity index ((6.11±2.87) vs. (3.19±1.97), t=4.256, P<0.001) of the death group was higher than that of the survival group. The proportion of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (42.1%(8/19) vs. 3.2%(1/31), χ2=9.574, P=0.002), Charlson's comorbidity index ≥5 (68.4%(13/19) vs. 22.6%(7/31), χ2=10.314, P=0.001), septic shock (36.8%(7/19) vs. 6.5%(2/31), χ2=5.456, P=0.020), source of lung infection (36.8%(7/19) vs. 9.7%(3/31), χ2=3.868, P=0.049) was higher in death group than those in survival group. Kaplan-meier survival curve showed that the 30-day mortality of appropriate targeted treatment was lower than that of inappropriate targeted treatment ( χ2=8.138, P=0.004). Multivariate analysis showed that septic shock ( OR=56.363, 95% CI: 4.309-737.273, P=0.002) and charlson's comorbidity index ≥5 ( OR=18.605,95% CI: 1.813-190.896, P=0.014) were independent risk factors for mortality in patients with bloodstream CRKP infection. Conclusion:Appropriate targeted therapy can reduce 30-day mortality in patients with CRKP bloodstream infection. In order to reduce the risk of mortality, we should prevent the occurrence of septic shock and strengthen the diagnosis and treatment of patients with Chalson's comorbidity index ≥5.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of gastrojejunal bypass surgery combined with radical gastrectomy following conversion therapy for gastric cancer with outlet obstruction.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopatho-logical data of 10 initially unresectable gastric cancer patients with outlet obstruction who were admitted to Ruijin Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from October 2019 to July 2020 were collected. There were 8 males and 2 females, aged from 41 to 59 years, with a median age of 53 years. Patients underwent 'sandwich therapy' of gastrojejunal bypass surgery combined with gastrectomy following conversion therapy. Observation indicators: (1) gastrojejunal bypass surgery and postoperative situations; (2) conversion therapy and complications; (3) radical gastrectomy and postoperative situations; (4) follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient examinations or telephone interview was conducted to detect postoperative complications, progress-free survival, tumor recurrence and metastasis up to March 2019. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Gastrojejunal bypass surgery and postoperative situations: 10 patients received modified gastrojejunal bypass surgery combined with No.4sb lymph node dissection, without intraoperative serious complications, conversion to laparotomy or death. The operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, time to postoperative first flatus, time to liquid diet intake were 73 minutes(range, 60-87 minutes), 33 mL(range,20-110 mL), 3 days(range, 2-6 days), 4 days(range, 4-9 days). One patient had post-operative Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ complication of anastomotic bleeding, and was improved after transfusion of blood products. (2) Conversion therapy and complications: of 10 patients, 9 cases received 4 cycles of FLOT regimen. One of the 9 cases was suspended chemotherapy due to Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ anastomotic edema after 2 cycles of FLOT regimen. Of 10 patients, there were 6 cases with partial response and 4 cases with stable disease. Of 6 patients with partial response, 4 cases with preoperative cT4b stage were down stage to T4a stage, showing the relationship of tumor with transverse mesentery and pancreatic capsule clearer than the first exploration, 2 cases with preoperative lymph nodes fusion had shrank obviously. Of 4 patients with stable disease, 3 cases were negative for lymph nodes shranking, and the rest 1 case with tumor peritoneal metastasis diagnosed by initial laparoscopy can not be evaluated by imaging examination after chemotherapy. Two of 10 patients had Clavien-Dindo grade I complication of elevated blood glucose during the chemotherapy, which were improved after insulin therapy. (3) Radical gastrectomy and post-operative situations: 10 patients underwent radical resection after conversion therapy. Of 4 cases with stable disease, 3 cases with preoperative lymph nodes fusion showed obvious space between lymph nodes and surrounding tissues at resurgical exploration and received radical resection, 1 case with peritoneal metastasis showed abdominal wall nodelus and omental tuberosity as fibrous scars at resurgical exploration and received radical resection. The operation time, volume of intra-operative blood loss, time to postoperative first flatus, time to initial liquid diet intake, duration of total hospital stay, duration of postoperative hospital stay of 10 patients were 148 minutes(range, 95-195 minutes), 108 mL(range, 100-180 mL), 3 days(range, 2-7 days), 4 days(range, 3-9 days), 11 days(range, 10-21 days), 8 days(range, 7-16 days). Two of 10 patients had perioperative complications. Results of pathological examination of 10 patients showed the number of dissected lymph nodes as 25±6. There were 1 case of stage T1, 5 cases of stage T3, 4 cases of stage T4a. There were 1 case of stage N0, 2 cases of stage N1, 3 cases of stage N2, 4 cases of stage N3. There were 3 cases of tumor regression grade 1a, 1 case of grade 1b, 4 cases of grade 2, 2 cases of grade 3. (4) Follow-up: 10 patients were followed up for 3.9-13.0 months, with a median follow-up time of 6.0 months. The median progression-free survival time of 10 patients was 6.0 months. During the follow-up, 1 case underwent postoperative Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ complication of delayed gastric emptying and was improved after symptomatic treatment.Conclusion:The gastrojejunal bypass surgery combined with gastrectomy following conversion therapy for gastric cancer with outlet obstruction is safe and effective.

Objective:To investigate the application value of three-dimensional (3D) laparoscope in the transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 20 patients with middle and low rectal cancer who underwent TaTME in the Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from June 2018 to October 2019 were collected. There were 15 males and 5 females, aged from 28 to 81 years, with a median age of 64 years. Of the 20 patients, 10 patients using 3D laparoscopic system for transanal approach of TaTME were divided into 3D group, and 10 patients using two-dimensional (2D) laparoscopic system for transanal approach of TaTME were divided into 2D group. Observation indicators: (1) intraoperative situations and postoperative recovery; (2) postoperative pathological examination; (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted by outpatient examination and telephone interview to detect survival of patients and recurrence and metastasis of tumors in patients up to April 2020. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the Fisher exact propability. Comparison of ordinal data was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Results:(1) Intraoperative situations and postoperative recovery: patients in the two groups completed surgeries successfully, without tranversion to laparostomy from laparoscopic surgery, transversion to transabdominal surgery from transanal surgery, or intraoperative death. The cases with terminal ileostomy, cases with manual anstomosis or mechanical anastomosis (anastomotic methods), operation time, volume of intra-operative blood loss, duration of postoperative hospital stay, cases with anastomotic leakage or anastomotic hemorrahge (postoperative short-term complications), cases with anastomotic stenosis of the 3D group were 7, 4, 6, 150 minutes (range, 100-220 minutes), 50 mL (range, 30-100 mL), 8.5 days (range, 7.0-16.0 days), 2, 0, 1, respectively, versus 8, 5, 5, 180 minutes (range, 120-250 minutes), 100 mL (range, 30-200 mL), 9.5 days (range, 6.0-17.0 days), 1, 1, 1 of the 2D group. There was no significant difference in the terminal ileostomy, anastomotic methods, postoperative short-term complications, or anastomotic stenosis between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, or duration of postoperative hospital stay between the two groups ( Z=1.909, 1.827, 0.687, P>0.05). Patients with short-term complications in the two groups were improved after conservative treatments. There was 1 patient with anastomotic stenosis in either group, and they were improved after endoscopic balloon dilatation. (2) Postoperative pathological examination: the maximum tumor diameter, distal margin of the tumor, the number of lymph nodes harvested, cases with cancer nodes in the mesentery, cases with complete mesentery or median complete mesentery (the integrity of mesentery), cases in stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ (postoperative pathological stage) of the 3D group were 3.8 cm (range, 1.8-5.0 cm), 1.0 cm (range, 0.5-2.5 cm), 14.5 (range, 6.0-19.0), 1, 9, 1, 4, 2, 4, respectively, versus 4.8 cm (range, 1.0-8.5 cm), 0.8 cm (range, 0.3-1.5 cm), 15.5 (range, 8.0-18.0), 1, 8, 2, 2, 4, 4 of the 2D group. There was no significant difference in the maximum tumor diameter, distal margin of the tumor, the number of lymph nodes harvested, the integrity of mesentery, or postoperative pathological stage between the two groups ( Z=1.673, 1.772, 0.038, 0.610, 0.482, P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the cases with cancer nodes in the mesentery between the two groups ( P>0.05). Patients in the two groups had negative distal margin and circumferential margin. (3) Follow-up: patients in the 3D group and 2D group were followed up for 11 months (range, 6-16 months) and 13 months (range, 6-21 months), respectively. During the follow-up, there was no local recurrence, distal metastasis, or tumor-related death. Conclusions:3D laparoscope applied in the TaTME can achieve similar clinical efficacy with 2D laparoscope, which may have a positive impact on the operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss.

The other patients with complications were cured after symptomatic supportive treatment. There was no significant difference in the complication incidence between the two groups ( χ2=0.035, P>0.05). (6) Postoperative pathological examination results of patients with colorectal cancer: the tumor diameter, cases in stage T1, T2, T3, T4 (tumor T staging), cases with vascular invasion, cases with nerve invasion, cases with tumor nodule, cases in stage N0, N1-N2 (tumor N staging), the number of positive lymph node, the number of lymph node dissected, cases with qualified lymph node dissected, cases in stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ (TNM clinical staging) were 5.0 cm(3.0 cm, 6.0 cm), 3, 2, 7, 7, 3, 2, 1, 8, 11, 0(0, 4), 17(14, 23), 18, 2, 3, 12, 2 in patients of the glasses-free 3D colorectal cancer group, and 4.0 cm(3.0 cm, 5.0 cm), 7, 16, 43, 12, 14, 12, 7, 46, 32, 0(0, 1), 16(13, 19), 74, 14, 17, 40, 7 in patients of the polarized glasses 3D colorectal cancer group, with no significant difference between the two groups ( Z=-0.768, -1.135, χ2 =0.049, 0.292, 0.278, 1.762, Z=-0.694, -1.349, χ2=0.001, Z=-1.011, P>0.05). (7) Follow-up: 165 patients received follow-up, with out short-term reoperation or postoperative death in the postoperative 30 days. Conclusion:There is no significant difference in the efficacy between glasses-free 3D laparoscopic surgery and polarized glasses 3D laparoscopic surgery for radical resection of gastrointestinal malignant tumors, of which the clinical value requires further study.

Objective:To investigate the computed tomography (CT) features of gastric neuroendocrine neoplasm (GNEN).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive method was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 30 GNEN patients who were admitted to two domestic medical centers (13 cases in Wenzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and 17 cases in Wenzhou People′s Hospital) from January 2010 to December 2018 were collected. There were 23 males and 7 females, aged (62±4)years, with a range from 27 to 78 years. The patients underwent abdominal CT plain scan and dynamic enhancement scan. Two associate chief radiologists with more than 20 years of work experience observed and analyzed all the images respectively. Observation indicators: (1) CT examination; (2) treatment and postoperative pathological examination; (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination and telephone interview to detect the survival of patients up to December 2018. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range). Results:(1) CT examination: of the 30 patients, 14 had the tumor located in the fundus of stomach, 10 had the the tumor located in the body of stomach, and 6 had the tumor located in the antrum. The tumor was elliptical in 18 cases and irregular in 12 cases. There were 15 cases of endogenous type, 13 cases of exogenous type, and 2 cases of intramural type. Patients with G1 neuroendocrine tumor had the maximum diameter of (6.8±1.6)cm, of which 4 cases had the maximum diameter less than 5.0 cm and 4 cases had the maximum diameter of 5.0 to 10.0 cm. Patients with G2 neuroendocrine tumor had the maximum diameter of (8.3±2.7)cm, of which 1 case had the maximum diameter less than 5.0 cm, 4 cases had the maximum diameter of 5.0 to 10.0 cm, and 2 cases had the maximum diameter greater than 10.0 cm. Patients with G3 neuroendocrine carcinoma had the maximum diameter of (17.8±2.2)cm, of which 6 cases had the maximum diameter of 5.0 to 10.0 cm and 9 cases had the maximum diameter more than 10.0 cm. The tumor showed swelling growth in 14 cases and invasive growth in 16 cases. The tumor boundary was clear in 14 cases and unclear in 16 cases. CT plain scan showed homogeneous tumor density in 10 cases and heterogeneous density in 20 cases. Nine patients had iso-density in the tumor parenchymal part, and the CT value was (34.0±3.5)HU. In the 18 cases of low density, the CT value was (16.6±1.4)HU. In the 3 cases of high density, the CT value was (45.3±3.6)HU. Of the 30 patients, 21 cases had small punctate or small round necrotic cyst lesions in the tumor, 10 cases had mesenteric lymph node, peritoneum, liver metastasis and adjacent omentum invasion; 17 cases had abdominal effusion. In the CT enhancement examination, 12 cases showed mild enhancement, and the CT value was (56.5±6.3)HU; 15 cases showed moderate enhancement, and the CT value was (66.0±5.4)HU; 3 cases showed significant enhancement, and the CT value was (76.6±5.8)HU. Seven cases showed homogeneous enhancement and 23 cases had heterogeneous enhancement. There were 8 cases with tortuous vessels. (2) Treatment and postoperative pathological examination: of the 30 patients, 10 cases with mesenteric lymph nodes, peritoneum, liver metastasis and adjacent omentum invasion underwent radical total gastrectomy; 14 cases without surrounding tissue invasion or metastasis underwent radical subtotal gastrectomy; 6 cases with tumor diameter less than 4.0 cm and without surrounding tissue invasion or metastasis underwent endoscopic resection. All the 30 patients were confirmed GNEN by postoperative pathological examination, including 8 cases of G1 neuroendocrine tumor, 7 cases of G2 neuroendocrine tumor, and 15 cases of G3 neuroendocrine carcinoma. Results of immunohistochemical staining showed that 30 patients were positive for synaptophysin, 23 were positive for chromogranin A, and 9 were positive for cytokeratin. (3) Follow-up: all the 30 patients were followed up for 10-80 months, with a median follow-up time of 39 months. The 5-year survival rate of 30 patients was 43.3% (13/30). The 5-year survival rates were 6/8, 3/7 and 4/15 of patients with G1 neuroendocrine tumor, G2 neuroendocrine carcinoma, and G3 neuroendocrine carcinoma.Conclusions:GNEN has the main manifestation as abdominal pain, with G3 as pathological classification, which is common in fundus and body of stomach. The CT findings of GNEN are characterized by swelling or infiltrating growth and round or irregular low-density masses. Tumors are prone to cystic transformation, and showed the mildly to moderately heterogeneous enhancement.
