Objective To summarize the epidemiological and clinical features of infectious diseases of the central nervous system(CNS)by a single-center analysis.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 1247 cases of CNS infectious diseases diagnosed and treated in the First Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from 2001 to 2020.Results The data for this group of CNS infectious diseases by disease type in descending order of number of cases were viruses 743(59.6％),Mycobacterium tuberculosis 249(20.0％),other bacteria 150(12.0％),fungi 68(5.5％),parasites 18(1.4％),Treponema pallidum 18(1.4％)and rickettsia 1(0.1％).The number of cases increased by 177 cases(33.1％)in the latter 10 years compared to the previous 10 years(P<0.05).No significant difference in seasonal distribution pattern of data between disease types(P>0.05).Male to female ratio is 1.87︰1,mostly under 60 years of age.Viruses are more likely to infect students,most often at university/college level and above,farmers are overrepresented among bacteria and Mycobacterium tuberculosis,and more infections of Treponema pallidum in workers.CNS infectious diseases are characterized by fever,headache and signs of meningeal irritation,with the adductor nerve being the more commonly involved cranial nerve.Matagenomic next-generation sequencing improves clinical diagnostic capabilities.The median hospital days for CNS infectious diseases are 18.00(11.00,27.00)and median hospital costs are ￥29,500(￥16,000,￥59,200).The mortality rate from CNS infectious diseases is 1.6％.Conclusions The incidence of CNS infectious diseases is increasing last ten years,with complex clinical presentation,severe symptoms and poor prognosis.Early and accurate diagnosis and standardized clinical treatment can significantly reduce the morbidity and mortality rate and ease the burden of disease.

Objective To explore the role and possible molecular mechanism of Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1(IDH1)gene in proliferation and migration of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(iCCA)cell HuCCT1.Methods HuCCT1 cells with IDH1 gene knockout(HuCCT1IDH1-/-)were constructed by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology.To investigate the capacities of proliferation,migration and invasion of HuCCT1WT(HuCCT1 cells with wild-type IDH1 gene)and HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells,assays of CCK-8,clone formation,scratch and transwell were performed.Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)associated proteins E-cadherin,N-cadherin,Vimentin,MMP-9,Wnt3a and β-catenin in two groups of cells.The transcriptome sequencing data of HuCCT1WT and HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells were analyzed by bioinformatics methods,Western blotting was used to verify the expression of signaling pathway-related proteins.Results Compared with HuCCT1WT cells,HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells showed the number of proliferation and clone formation significantly reduced(P<0.05),the proportion of cells blocked in G2/M phase was significantly increased(P<0.01),the rate of scratch healing was significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the number of migrated cells(P<0.001)and invaded cells(P<0.05)was significantly reduced.qRT-PCR assay showed that the expression levels of IDH1,Vimentin,MMP-9 and genes related to the regulation of G2/M cycle proliferation,Cyclin A2,Cyclin B1 and CDK1 mRNA were down-regulated in HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells(P<0.05),and the expression of CDH1 mRNA encoding E-cadherin was up-regulated(P<0.01);Western blotting assay showed that the expression level of E-cadherin in HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells was significantly increased(P<0.05),and the expression level of N-cadherin,Vimentin and MMP-9 protein was significantly decreased(P<0.05)than that in HuCCT1WT cells.Data of transcriptome sequencing revealed 1476 differentially expressed genes(DEGs)between two groups of HuCCT1 cells.Go enrichment analysis showed the DEGs were significantly enriched in cell biological processes associated with inflammatory response,cell signaling and cell metabolism.Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway analysis suggested that the DEGs may be involved in some signaling pathways such as Wnt,MAPK,Rap1,Hippo and TNF,which are closely related to the regulation of proliferation and invasion of tumor cells.Western blotting verification results showed that compared with HuCCT1WT cells,the relative expression of Wnt3a and β-catenin proteins of HuCCT1IDH1-/-cells was significantly decreased(P<0.05).Conclusions IDH1 gene may participate in the control of biological functions of HuCCT1 cells,including cell proliferation,migration,invasion and epithelial mesenchymal transition.The mechanism may be related to the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics and electrogastrogram features of patients with functional dyspepsia (FD) overlapping lower gastrointestinal symptoms (LGS).Methods:The clinical data of 61 patients with FD from January 2018 to December 2020 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, FD overlapping LGS was in 33 cases (FD overlapping LGS group), and simple FD in 28 cases (simple FD group). The manifestations of patients with FD overlapping LGS were recorded. The dyspeptic symptom score was assessed using the Rome Ⅳ criteria. Anxiety and depression status were evaluated using the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS), and sleep disorder was assessed using the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI). The electrogastrogram was performed, and the normal slow wave percentage (N%), bradygastria percentage (B%), tachygastria percentage (T%), arrhythmia percentage (A%), dominant frequency, dominant power and postprandial-to-fasting power ratio (PR) were recorded.Results:The most common symptom in FD patients overlapping LGS was lower abdomen distention, the incidence was 84.85% (28/33). The upper abdominal bloating score in FD overlapping LGS group was significantly higher than that in simple FD group: 7.00 (6.50, 7.00) scores vs. 5.00 (0.50, 7.00) scores, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in other dyspeptic symptoms scores and total score between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidences of depression and sleep disorder in FD overlapping LGS group were significantly higher than those in simple FD group: 42.42% (14/33) vs. 14.29% (4/28) and 69.70% (23/33) vs. 39.29% (11/28), and there were statistical differences ( χ2 = 5.77 and 5.68, P<0.05); there was no statistical difference in the incidence of anxiety between the two groups ( P>0.05). In FD overlapping LGS group, the postprandial T% in the gastric fundus and postprandial A% in the gastric body were significantly lower than those before meal: 13.79% (6.79%, 21.46%) vs. 20.69% (12.45%, 27.59%) and 3.45% (0, 6.90%) vs. 6.90% (3.45%, 13.79%), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). In simple FD group, the postprandial N% in the gastric fundus was significantly lower than that before meal: 55.92% (43.71%, 70.02%) vs. 69.27% (48.07%, 78.45%), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). In the gastric fundus, the preprandial N% in FD overlapping LGS group was significantly lower than that in simple FD group, preprandial B% and T% were significantly higher than those in simple FD group, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 or <0.05). In the gastric body, the preprandial N% in FD overlapping LGS group was significantly lower than that in simple FD group, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). In the pyloric region, the PR in FD overlapping LGS group was significantly lower than that in simple FD group, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). In the overall stomach, the preprandial N% in FD overlapping LGS group was significantly lower than that in simple FD group, the preprandial B% and T% were significantly higher than those in simple FD group, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 or <0.05). Spearman correlation analysis result showed that the disease course was not correlated with electrogastrogram parameters in patients with FD overlapping LGS ( P>0.05); the total score of dyspeptic symptoms was positively correlated with postprandial A% in the overall stomach ( r = 0.345, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with postprandial dominant frequency in the overall stomach and pyloric region ( r = -0.357 and -0.473, P<0.05 or <0.01). Conclusions:FD patients can overlap with various LGS. The patients with FD overlapping LGS have more severe dyspepsia symptoms, higher proportions of comorbid depression and sleep disorders, and more severe abnormalities in fasting proximal gastric electrical rhythm and emptying function. The severity of dyspeptic symptoms in patients with FD overlapping LGS is correlated with postprandial gastric electrical rhythm abnormalities.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the potential relationship between urinary metals copper (Cu), arsenic (As), strontium (Sr), barium (Ba), iron (Fe), lead (Pb) and manganese (Mn) and grip strength. Methods We used linear regression models, quantile g-computation and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) to assess the relationship between metals and grip strength.Results In the multimetal linear regression, Cu (β=-2.119), As (β=-1.318), Sr (β=-2.480), Ba (β=0.781), Fe (β= 1.130) and Mn (β=-0.404) were significantly correlated with grip strength (P < 0.05). The results of the quantile g-computation showed that the risk of occurrence of grip strength reduction was -1.007 (95％ confidence interval:-1.362, -0.652; P < 0.001) when each quartile of the mixture of the seven metals was increased. Bayesian kernel function regression model analysis showed that mixtures of the seven metals had a negative overall effect on grip strength, with Cu, As and Sr being negatively associated with grip strength levels. In the total population, potential interactions were observed between As and Mn and between Cu and Mn (Pinteractions of 0.003 and 0.018, respectively).Conclusion In summary, this study suggests that combined exposure to metal mixtures is negatively associated with grip strength. Cu, Sr and As were negatively correlated with grip strength levels, and there were potential interactions between As and Mn and between Cu and Mn.

Objective To observe the effect of remifentanil-based fast-track anesthesia on the quality of anesthesia recovery in children with congenital heart disease underwent transcatheter closure.Methods Children with congenital heart disease who underwent transcatheter closure were divided into treatment group and control group according to the anesthesia plan.The anesthesia plan of the control group was as follows:anesthesia induction(intramuscular injection of ketamine at 4 mg·kg-1,intravenous injection of propofol at 2.5 mg·kg-1,fentanyl at 10 μg·kg-1and cisatracurium at 0.1 mg·kg-1)and anesthesia maintenance(fentanyl at0.4μg·kg-1·min-1 and propofol at 8 μg·kg-1·min-1).The anesthesia plan of the treatment group was as follows:anesthesia induction(intramuscular injection of ketamine at 5 mg·kg-,intravenous injection of midazolam at 0.1 mg·kg-1,sufentanil at 1.0 μg·kg-1 and cisatracurium at 0.1 mg·kg-1)and anesthesia maintenance(remifentanil at 0.5 μg·kg-1·min-1 and propofol at 8 μg·kg-1·min-1).Anesthesia recovery,facial expression,leg posture,activity,crying and comfortability(FLACC)of 5 pain scores,Ramsay score,hemodynamics,myocardial injury indexes,and adverse drug reactions were compared between the two groups.Results There were 64 cases in treatment group and 56 cases in control group.The spontaneous respiration recovery time,call time and extubation time of the treatment group were(4.87±1.22),(10.16±2.58)and(12.55±3.19)min,shorter than those in control group,which were(5.49±1.35),(13.34±3.27)and(15.67±3.62)min(all P＜0.05).At 1 h and 2 h after operation,Ramsay scores of treatment group were 2.58±0.35 and 3.69±0.42,were lower than 3.02±0.47 and 4.24±0.39 in control group(all P＜0.05).At 1 h and 2 h after operation,the FLACC scores of the treatment group were 3.03±0.81 and 3.75±0.84,lower than 3.78±0.62 and 4.36±0.51 in control group(all P＜0.05).Mean arterial pressure(MAP)of treatment group at the insertion of laryngeal mask,the insertion of occluder and the end of the operation were(102.45±10.26),(94.18±8.37)and(91.46±10.15)mmHg,lower than those in control group,which were(107.84±10.11),(100.57±9.84)and(97.33±8.53)mmHg(all P＜0.05).On day 1 and day 3 after operation,serum creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB)levels in the treatment group were(10.03±2.58)and(8.65±2.16)U·L-1,lower than those in control group,which were(12.44±3.07)and(10.16±2.35)U·L-1(all P＜0.05).On day 1 and day 3 after operation,serum cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTn Ⅰ)levels in treatment group[(0.07±0.02)and(0.04±0.01)μg·L-1]were lower than those in control group[(0.09±0.03)and(0.06±0.02)μg·L-1](all P＜0.05).The incidence of adverse anesthesia reactions in treatment group was 6.25％(4 cases/64 cases),lower than 17.86％(10 cases/56 cases)in control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Remifentanil-based fast-track anesthesia can improve the quality of anesthesia recovery in children with congenital heart disease undergoing transcatheter closure,with good sedative and analgesic effects,stable hemodynamics during operation,and low incidence of adverse drug reactions.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease, defined by several phases, ranging from benign fat accumulation to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), which can lead to liver cancer and cirrhosis. Although NAFLD is a disease of disordered metabolism, it also involves several immune cell-mediated inflammatory processes, either promoting and/or suppressing hepatocyte inflammation through the secretion of pro-inflammatory and/or anti-inflammatory factors to influence the NAFLD process. However, the underlying disease mechanism and the role of immune cells in NAFLD are still under investigation, leaving many open-ended questions. In this review, we presented the recent concepts about the interplay of immune cells in the onset and pathogenesis of NAFLD. We also highlighted the specific non-immune cells exhibiting immunological properties of therapeutic significance in NAFLD. We hope that this review will help guide the development of future NAFLD therapeutics.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of oxycodone in analgesia after thoracoscopic radical lung cancer surgery in elderly.Methods A total of 92 elderly patients who underwent thoracoscopic radical lung cancer surgery in the Affiliated Shuyang Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group according to the random number table method,with 46 cases in each group.Postoperative analgesia was administered with self-controlled intravenous analgesia pump for patients.Patients in the control group was anesthetized with sufentanil 2 μg/kg+dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg,and patients in the observation group was anesthetized with oxycodone 0.5 mg/kg+dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg.The pain degree,delirium,inflammatory factor level,cognitive function at different time points and postoperative adverse reactions of patients were compared between the two groups.Results The pain scores of patients 12 hours,24 hours and 48 hours after surgery in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of postoperative adverse reactions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).The levels of S100β,NSE and TNF-α of patients 1 day and 2 days after surgery in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The cognitive function scores of patients 1 day and 2 days after surgery in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidences of delirium 1 day,2 days and 3 days after surgery in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The use of oxycodone for postoperative self-controlled intravenous analgesia in elderly patients after radical lung cancer surgery can significantly relieve pain,reduce analgesia-related adverse reactions and the incidence of postoperative delirium,decrease the inflammatory factors levels,and alleviate the degree of cognitive function impairment,which is beneficial to the postoperative recovery of patients.

To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of implantable D-shant atrial shunt device in patients with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension(PAH)and right heart failure.A 53-year-old female patient diagnosed with severe idiopathic PAH and right heart failure,her WHO FC grade was Ⅳ.The right heart catheter and implantation of D-shant atrial shunt device were performed under local anesthesia on November 30,2021.A 6 mm×4 cm peripheral artery balloon was selected to dilate the atrial septum and a D-shant atrial shunt device with a fixed 4 mm diameter orifice was implanted into the heart.The clinical symptoms and hemodynamics of the patient was improved after the intervention.Implantation of atrial shunt device as a palliative therapy to established a right to left shunt is another strategy for treating patients with severe PAH in late period,which has good effectiveness and safety.It could be the last replacement therapy to improve symptoms and prolonged lives to drug resistant and severe PAH patients.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
