In the new era, the integrity culture can provide important support for promoting the comprehensive and strict governance of the Party to the in-depth development, and helping the high-quality development of public hospitals. The First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University has implemented the construction of integrity culture of public hospitals in the new era from three aspects: conceptual culture, institutional culture, and environmental culture. The construction of the integrity culture has been integrated into hospital culture and hospital governance, playing a role in value orientation, behavioral constraints, and environmental purification, ensuring the healthy development of the hospital.However, there is still room for improvement in top-level design, vitality, effective synergy, and effectiveness in meeting the requirements of the new era. It is also necessary to comply with the requirements of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China′s " Opinions on Strengthening the Construction of Integrity Culture in the New Era", excavate the ideological connotation of hospital integrity culture construction, compact responsibilities, and improve work quality and efficiency by anchoring the work positioning of " the greatest of the country", clarifying the fundamental task of " cultivating roots and casting souls", strengthening the coordination of " political responsibility", and implementing measures throughout the cycle.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the feasibility of applying intracranial lead reconstruction in deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy for Parkinsonism. METHODS: We retrospectively collected the clinical data from 27 patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), who received bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) DBS therapy between January, 2016 and December, 2017. According to the position of the selected optimal stimulating contact of the implanted leads, the patients were divided into group A with the stimulating contacts of the bilateral leads in the STN, group B with unilateral stimulating contacts in the STN, and group C with bilateral stimulating contacts outside the STN. All the patients were assessed for improvement using Hoehn-Yahr stage, the third part of United Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS Ⅲ), Schwab and England Activities of Daily Living (SE-ADL), and L-dopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD). The consistency between the optimal stimulating contact selected by lead reconstruction and that by standard postoperative programming procedure was also evaluated. RESULTS: The patients in all the 3 groups showed postoperative improvements in Hoehn-Yahr stage, UPDRS Ⅲ score, SE-ADL score, and LEDD in the medication-off state. But at 12 months of the follow-up, such improvements were maintained only in the patients of group A. The optimal stimulating contacts selected by lead reconstruction and standard postoperative programming procedure had a matching rate of up to 77.78% (42/54), and the coordinates of the optimal contacts selected by the two methods showed no significant difference. CONCLUSIONS Intracranial lead reconstruction facilitates the study of the association between the implant site of the leads and the clinical outcome of DBS therapy for PD and allows the precise selection of the optimal contact of the implanted leads in postoperative programming of DBS.

Objective To investigate the reasons of failure of burr hole craniotomy with drainage in patients with chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) and advantages of survived neuroendoscopic surgery. Methods One hundred patients with CSDH, admitted to our hospital from May 2015 to May 2019, were enrolled. All patients were initially treated by burr hole craniotomy with drainage; 15 showed drainage failure and received survived neuroendoscopic hematoma evacuation. The preoperative and postoperative clinical features and treatment efficacy of these 15 patients were analyzed. Results Out of the 15 failed patients, 6 had drainage tube misplacement, and the other 9 showed drainage obstacle with separated hematoma. In 6 with drainage tube misplacement, 2 had drainage tube placed into the brain tissues, 3 had drainage tube located in the subendothelium of the hematoma, and one had drainage tube located outside the hematoma. Fifteen patients underwent neuroendoscopic hematoma resection, and the curative effect was significant. After 6 months of follow-up, the hematoma disappearance. Two patients were left with limb weakness due to catheter injury and brain tissues during the initial operation. Glasgow outcome scale indicated good prognosis in the remaining 13 patients. Conclusions Burr hole craniotomy should be standardized, and the drainage tube should be located in the hematoma cavity and thorough rinse should be performed. Neuroendoscopic hematoma evacuation is an effective remedy for failure of the first drilling and drainage surgery.

Objective To explore the related factors affecting postoperative pneumonia in patients with cavernous cerebrovascular malformation (CCM).MethodsClinical data of 151 CCM patients admitted to our hospital from January 2010 to January 2017 were retrospectively collected. Patients were divided into postoperative pneumonia group (n=11) and postoperative non-pneumonia group (n=140) according to the occurrence of postoperative pneumonia. Univariate Logistic regression analysis, multivariate Logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were used to screen the relevant factors influencing the occurrence of postoperative pneumonia in CCM patients and evaluate the predictive value of relevant factors in postoperative pneumonia.ResultsAs compared with patients from postoperative non-pneumonia group, patients from postoperative pneumonia group had significantly increased modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores and significantly higher percentage of CCM combined with hemorrhage, and significantly decreased Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores (P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative GCS scores (OR=4.75, 95％CI: 1.14-19.80,P=0.032) and mRS scores (OR=15.61, 95％CI: 3.22-75.58,P=0.001) were independent factors influencing the occurrence of postoperative pneumonia. ROC curve showed that the sensitivity and specificity of mRS scores≥4 to predict postoperative pneumonia were 45.5％ and 95.7％, respectively, and the sensitivity and specificity of GCS scores≤13 to predict postoperative pneumonia were 54.5％ and 85.7％, respectively.ConclusionFor CCM patients with preoperative GCS scores≤13 or mRS scores≥4, more attention should be paid to perioperative lung management and occurrence of postoperative pneumonia should be vigilant.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value ofcerebrospinal fluid (CSF) lactic acid (LA) level in bacterial meningitis after craniotomy for cerebral hemorrhage in adults.Methods The clinical data of 162 patients with cerebral hemorrhage,admitted to and accepted craniotomy in our hospital from April 2013 to April 2018,were retrospectively collected;patients were divided into infected group (n=75) and non-infected group (n=87) according to whether postoperative bacterial meningitis occurred;univariate analysis was used to compare the differences of CSF-LA concentration and other indicators of CSF between patients of the two groups;multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the independent factors affecting the occurrence of postoperative bacterial meningitis;receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive values of CSF-LA and other indicators in postoperative bacterial meningitis.Furthermore,17 patients with positive bacterial CSF were divided into Gram-positive (G+) bacteria group (n=9) and Gram-negative (G-) bacteria group (n=8);the predictive values of CSF-LA and other indicators for postoperative meningitis of G-bacteria patients were analyzed in the same way.Results (1) The CSF-LA concentration in infected group ([6.3±2.8] mmol/L) was significantly increased as compared with that in non-infected group ([3.3±1.6] mmol/L,P＜0.05);the results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CSF-LA was an independent influencing factor for postoperative bacterial meningitis (odd ratio=l.547,95％ confidence interval:1.029-2.326,P=0.036);ROC curve results revealed that the area under the curve of CSF-LA concentration in the diagnosis of bacterial meningitis after craniotomy was 0.854 (95％ confidence interval:0.790-0.904),and the optimal cut-off value was 4.61 mmol/L,with sensitivity of 69.3％,specificity of 92.0％,positive predictive value of 88.1％ and negative predictive value of 77.7％.(2) The CSF-LA concentration in G-bacteria group ([9.9±2.9] mmol/L) was significantly increased as compared with that in G+ bacteria group ([5.2±3.1] mmoi/L,P＜ 0.05);ROC curve results revealed that,in patients with positive bacterial CSF,the area under the curve of CSF-LA concentration in diagnosis of meningitis with G-bacteria after craniotomy was 0.861 (95％ confidence interval:0.610-0.978),and the optimal cut-off value was 7.20 mmol/L with sensitivity of 87.5％,specificity of 88.9％,positive predictive value of 87.5％,and negative predictive value of 88.9％.Conclusion Detection for concentration of CSF-LA can help predicting bacterial meningitis afier craniotomy for cerebral hemorrhage and identify G+ and G-bacteria meningitis.

Objective The aim of our study was to establish an endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgical training model, and to examine its application value. Methods The endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgical training models were made.After assessments,the models was used for endoscopic operation training for 8 neurosurgeons with no experiences of endoscopic operation. Results The available operating space of this model is similar to the actual operating space in endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery. The egg fixed on the model has many layers of structure, such as eggshell, shell membrane, egg white and egg yolk, which constituted a good practice object. All students indicated that they could benefit from the training using this model. The skill in grinding the eggshell [(1.07 ± 0.221)cm2/min vs.(1.45±0.27)cm2/min, P<0.001]was significantly improved and the chance for shell membrane rupture (8 vs. 2, P=0.007) was significantly reduced in the last-time practice compared with the first-time practice (P<0.001). Conclusion The endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgical training model is helpful for neurosurgeons to practice the basic operation of endoscopic surgery and to improve their surgical skills,and can be used repeatedly.It can be used in basic operation training before the training using cadaver cranium.

Objective To investigate the distance change of bilateral internal carotid artery in acromegalic patients. Methods Twenty patients with acromegaly were included in this study from August 2016 to March 2018 in Department of Neurosurgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University. There were 7 males and 13 females with an average age of 40.2±12.6 years (range from 21 to 62 years old). Forty sex and age matched patients with non-functional pituitary adenoma were selected as controls. The 3D printing software was used for reconstructing the internal carotid artery. Distances of the bilateral internal carotid arteries were measured on the reconstructed images. Results The maximum distance between bilateral siphon carotid ectasias (25.1±3.9 mm vs. 23.2±2.9 mm, P=0.041) and distance between bilateral lacerum segments (26.2 ±3.1 mm vs. 23.8 ±4.1 mm, P=0.022) were significantly longer in patients with acromegaly than in those without. Although the distance between bilateral cavernous segments (20.7 ±4.3 mm vs. 22.4 ±3.1 mm, P=0.076) tended to be shorter, the difference was not statistically significant. The distance between bilateral ophthalmic segments was not significantly different between the two groups (15.7±5.1 mm vs. 16.0±2.5 mm, P=0.783). Conclusion The distance of bilateral internal carotid artery of acromegalic patients is different from that of patients with non-functional pituitary adenomas. Patients with acromegaly have significantly longer distance between bilateral siphon carotid ectasias and distance between bilateral lacerum segments compared with the patients with non- functional pituitary adenomas.

Objective To study the homology characteristics of clinicaly isolated and colonized linezolid(LZD)-resistant Enterococcus faecalis (E.faecalis) strains from a patient.Methods Ten E.faecalis strains (2 were isolated from urine specimens and 8 were from stool specimens) isolated from a patient with pulmonary infection were performed antimicrobial susceptibility testing, homology of E.faecalis was determined by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE).Results Before and after patients received LZD therapy, 2 E.faecalis strains isolated form urine specimens were both resistant to LZD (MICs: 8 mg/mL, 16 mg/mL, respectively), among 8 strains from stool specimens (6 were isolated before therapy, and 2 were isolated after therapy), LZD susceptible, intermediate, and resistant strains were 4, 2, and 2 respectively(MICs: 0.25-12 mg/mL).10 strains of E.faecalis were homologous by PFGE typing.Conclusion In this case, the detection of E.faecalis from urinary tract and intestinal tract is homologous, which suggested that LZD-resistant Enterococcus may be colonized in vivo for a long time, and may be shift to cause bacterial infection.

Objective To observe the expressions of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and tropomyosin-related kinase B (TrkB) in rats with early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage,and study the neuroprotective effects of BDNF and TrkB on EBI.Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=56),weighing 280-320 g,were randomly divided into sham-operated group and SAH group;SAH models were established by endovascular perforation ofinternal carotid artery.At 24 and 72 h after modeling,neurological scale scores were recorded;brain water content was measured;immunohistochemical staining and ELISA were used to observe the dynamical expressions of BDNF and TrkB in the brain.Results At 24 and 72 h after modeling,the neurological function scores and brain water content of SAH rats were higher than those of sham-operated group.The expression scores of BDNF in the SAH rats were 1.33±0.52 and 1.67±0.52,and the expression levels were (12.11±0.44) mg/mL and (15.82±0.89) mg/mL;the expression scores of TrkB were 1.17±0.75 and 2.00±0.00,and the expression levels were (18.89±0.38) mg/mL and (25.18±0.68) mg/mL.The expression scores of BDNF in the sham-operated group were 0.33±0.52 and 0.17±0.41,and the expression levels of BDNF in the sham-operated group was (4.92±0.16) mg/mL and (4.93±0.20) mg/mL;the expression scores of TrkB were 0.17±0.41 and 0.33±0.52,and the expression levels were (8.52±0.41) mg/mL and (8.08±0.34) mg/mL.There were significant differences in BDNF and TrkB expressions between the two groups at 24 and 72 h after modeling (P＜0.05).Conclusion The expressions of BDNF and TrkB increase significantly after SAH,and BDNF and TrkB play protective effect on EBI after SAH.
