Objective To analyze the causes of changes in the prevalence of respiratory diseases and the reason for changes in medical visit behavior of children in Zhejiang Province during the winter and spring seasons of 2019-2021, and to provide important reference for the allocation of hospital resources, implementation of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, and epidemic prevention and control. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 256 937 outpatient medical records from January 23rd to April 23rd of each year from 2019 to 2021 at the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine. Statistical methods were used for data analysis. Results A total of 256 937 cases were selected in the present study, including 157 000 cases in 2019, 22 192 cases in 2020, and 77 745 cases in 2021. The number of patients to the Children's Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from outside Hangzhou accounted for 41.74%, 14.36% , and 18.53% in 2019-2021, respectively. For 0~2 years old , 3~6 years old , and 7~14 years old groups , the percentages of patients with upper respiratory tract infections were 49.54%, 45.95%, and 46.74%, respectively ; with lower respiratory tract infections were 42.90% , 31.76% , and 22.95% ; with influenza were 2.23% , 3.15% and 4.09%; and with asthma were 1.37%, 5.08%, and 8.15%, respectively. Conclusion From 2019 to 2021, there have been significant changes in the total number of respiratory diseases in children, the proportion of disease types, and the proportion of children's geographical composition. It is necessary to continue to monitor children's respiratory diseases, grasp the dynamic changes in their medical visits in real time, adjust the hospital admission model , implement the graded treatment policy, and promote the prevention and control of respiratory diseases in children.

Objective The preventive effect of epigallocatechin gallate(EGCG)on hyperglycemia-induced hemorrhagic transformation(HT)was analyzed,and the underlying mechanisms were further explored.Methods Male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group(Sham,n = 20),model group(n = 27),hyperglycemia model group(HG,n = 43),and EGCG group(n = 43).In the model group,only the electrocoagulation cerebral ischemia model was established,and the HG group and the EGCG group were used to establish the HT model with acute hyperglycemia combined with electrocoagulation cerebral ischemia model.In addition,EGCG was adminis-tered by gavage for 5 days before cerebral ischemia at a dose of 50 mg/kg/d.Further studies confirmed the relevant targets by using network pharmacology to predict the potential targets and pathways of EGCG in the occurrence of HT.Results Compared with the model group,the mortality rate of the rats in the HG group was significantly increased[21.2%(6/27)vs.51.2%(22/43),P＜0.05].The mortality of rats in the EGCG group was significantly lower than that in the HG group[30.20%(13/43)vs.51.2%(22/43),P＜0.05].Second,mNSS,Longa score and infarct volume in the EGCG group were significantly lower than those in the HG group(P＜0.05).The incidence of HT in the HG group was higher than that in the model group(59.3%vs.90.7%).EGCG significantly reduced the incidence of hyperglycemia-induced HT to 69.8%.Compared with the HG group,EGCG decreased the hemoglobin content from(53.42±5.11)mg/dL to(37.04±2.39)mg/dL respectively(P＜0.05).Network pharmacology revealed that Nrf2-Keap1-mediated neuroinflammation may be associated with hyperglycemia-induced HT.The expression of Nrf2 and Keap1 was significantly decreased and the expression of TLR4 and phosphorylation of NF-κB was significantly increased in the HG group,but EGCG reversed this process.Conclusion EGCG pretreatment prevents the occurrence of HT,which may be related to the neuroprotection mediated by activation of the Nrf2-Keap1 signaling pathway.

Objective To compare the accuracy of the original-mirror alignment algorithm and a landmark-indepen-dent method in constructing the midsagittal plane(MSP)of the cone beam computed tomography in patients with facial deformities,so as to provide a theoretical basis for symmetric analysis.Methods The study was approved by the hospi-tal ethics committee.Cone beam computed tomography data of 30 patients with facial deformities were obtained,and the output was saved in DICOM format.The scan data were imported into Mimics 21.0;after segmentation,three-dimension-al(3D)skull models were reconstructed.Furthermore,the 3D scan data of skulls were transformed into mirror skull models using Geomagic Studio 2014 reverse engineering software.The MSP of each skull was generated using both the original-mirror alignment algorithm and the landmark-independent method.Original-mirror alignment algorithm:the original skull model and its mirror model were combined,and the new data to calculate the MSP(S1)of the original data in Geomagic Studio 2014 were obtained.Landmark-independent method:the following anatomical landmarks were deter-mined using Mimics 21.0:nasion(N),crista galli(CG),sella(S),basion(Ba),vomer(V),posterior nasal spine(PNS),in-cisive foramen(IF),and anterior nasal spine(ANS).The MSP(S2)of best fit was then found by minimizing the mean square distance of these eight anatomical landmarks to a plane in Geomagic Studio 2014.The results of the S1 and S2 models constructed using the original-mirror alignment algorithm and the landmark-independent method,respectively,were scored subjectively by five senior maxillofacial surgeons,and a paired t-test was performed for the two groups.The internal consistency analysis was performed based on secondary experiments to verify the repeatability of the expert evaluation method.Results The average scores of the S1 and S2 models were 65.73 and 75.90,respectively.The aver-age score of the model constructed using the landmark-independent method was significantly higher than that of the model constructed using the original-mirror alignment algorithm(P＜0.01).Furthermore,the results of the internal con-sistency analysis showed that the expert evaluation method had good reliability and validity.Conclusion In patients with facial deformities,the MSP constructed using the landmark-independent method is superior to that constructed us-ing the original-mirror alignment algorithm.This study provides a theoretical basis for maxillofacial symmetry analysis in clinical settings and is clinically feasible.

Objective To establish a simultaneous detection approach for 34 emerging contaminants(ECs)in tap water by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS).Human health risk assessment was performed according to the detection results from 43 tap water samples.Methods Tap water samples were concentrated and extracted by solid phase extraction,and then blown to near dry by nitrogen at 40℃.The sample extracts were dissolved in methanol-water solution(95:5,VN)to 0.5 mL for analyzing.Agilent Jet Stream Electrospray Ionization(AJS ESI)and the multiple reaction monitoring(MRM)mode were performed for MS to acquire the data of 34 ECs.A database including precursor ion,product ion and retention times was established accordingly.Results The average linear correlation coefficients(r)of 34 kinds of ECs was 0.995 9.The limits of detection were 0.01～0.60 ng/L and the recoveries were between 60.7％and 119.8％.The intra-group precisions were between 0.05％～9.89％and the intra-day precisions were between 0.20％～14.40％for the spiked samples.The method was applied to analyze 43 tap water samples and a total of 15 ECs were detected.According to the results,the detection rate of caffeine was the highest(84％),and the concentration range was ND～74.42 ng/L.Among all the ECs detected,1,2,3-benzotriazole had the highest concentration(ND～361.15 ng/L),where detection rate was 44％.Humans may be exposed to these ECs by drinking the tap water.The human health risk assessments of 12 kinds of ECs were carried out,however,the estimated risk was negligible(risk quotient＜0.01).Conclusion The method is simple,highly sensitive and selective,and could meet the detection needs of ECs at trace level in tap water.There was no human health risk posed for ECs identified in 43 tap water samples analyzed by this method.

Objective:To explore the facilitators and barriers in implementing the orthokeratology lens-wearing education guidance program from the perspectives of children, their families, and medical and nursing staff.Methods:Based on phenomenological research, purposive sampling was used to select five medical workers, 18 children wearing orthokeratology lenses and family members from the Optometry Center of Peking University Third Hospital as interviewees for semi-structured interviews. Colaizzi's 7-step method was used to analyze interview data.Results:Two themes (facilitators and barriers) were extracted, among which facilitators included two sub-themes (strong demand for educational guidance, trust in medical and nursing staff), and barriers consisted of two sub-themes (patient factors, external support factors) .Conclusions:In promoting the educational guidance intervention program for wearing orthokeratology lenses, medical and nursing staff need to fully play the role of facilitators, analyze and solve barriers, and ultimately promote the smooth implementation of the intervention program.

Objective To evaluate the scientificity,transparency and applicability of Chinese guidelines and expert consensuses on nursing published in 2022,in order to improve the quality of guidelines and consensuses.Methods Databases including Medline,Embase,Web of Science,CBM,CNKI,WanFang database,Chinese Medical Journal,and related websites were electronically searched,as well as China Hong Kong,Macao and Taiwan medical journals,to collect Chinese guidelines and expert consensuses on nursing from January to December 2022.STAR tool was used to evaluate the quality of each guidelines and consensuses by 3 assessors independently.Total score,scoring rate of each domain and item were adopted to analyze the outcomes.Results A total of 3 guidelines and 33 expert consensuses were included.The total guidelines and expert consensuses STAR score(33.5±14.3).The quality of guidelines and consensuses was low.The quality of guidelines was moderate with average score of 55.1,and the quality of consensuses was low with average score of 31.5.The included guidelines and consensuses had a highest score rate(52.4％)in the domain of recommendation.Among 39 items of STAR tool,the top 4 items including listing participants and institutions,explaining additional instructions for implementation,describing consensus method,and listing references for recommendations had a high score rate of 100％,83.3％,77.8％,75.0％respectively.However,the items of registration,providing registration information,protocols being searched on public platforms and explaining the role of funding had a low score rate,urgent need for attention and upgrading.Conclusion The overall quality of the Chinese guidelines and expert consensuses on nursing published in 2022 was low.As a medical and nursing practice guidance document,the quality of guidelines and expert consensuses should be improved by encouraging registration,strengthening management of interest conflict,enhancing the rigor of guideline developing process,and expanding the dissemination.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a clinical syndrome that presents with repeated upper airway stenosis, collapse, obstruction and frequent episodes of apnea during sleep causing a series of pathophysiological changes in the body. Studies have shown that OSA, as an independent risk factor, increases the occurrence and recurrence of cerebrovascular disease, which may lead to disability or death of patients. This article reviews the pathophysiological mechanism of OSA increasing the risk of cerebrovascular disease and related clinical research progress.

Objective:To compare 3D-printing-assisted surgery and conventional surgery in the treatment of Schazker type Ⅵ tibial plateau fractures.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 50 patients with type Ⅵ tibial plateau fracture who had been treated from January 2019 to December 2021 at the 5 Departments of Orthopedics in The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, The First People's Hospital of Jiujiang, Pingkuang General Hospital, Ganzhou People's Hospital, and Nanchang Hongdu Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to their different treatment methods. In the 3D printing group of 25 cases treated by 3D-printing-assisted surgery, there were 14 males and 11 females, with an age of (42.5±9.1) years; in the conventional group of 25 cases treated by conventional surgery, there were 13 males and 12 females with an age of (42.2±9.3) years. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency, fracture healing time, postoperative complications, the Rasmussen radiological scores and the American Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee function scores at 6 and 12 months after operation.Results:There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, indicating comparability ( P>0.05). The operation time [(125.4±10.6) min], intraoperative blood loss [(206.2±16.3) mL], intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency [(9.2±2.7) times] and fracture healing time [(3.0±0.7) months] in the 3D printing group were all significantly less than those in the conventional group [(168.2±14.1) min, (303.2±20.4) mL, (15.5±3.5) times and (4.1±0.8) months] while the Rasmussen radiological scores (17.6±1.2 and 17.9±0.6) and HSS knee scores (90.8±6.4 and 91.5±5.6) at 6 and 12 months after operation in the 3D printing group were all significantly higher than those in the conventional group (16.2±2.6 and 16.7±2.2; 84.5±9.2 and 87.6±8.0) (all P<0.05). In the 3D printing group, there were 1 case of wound infection and 1 case of wound dehiscence after operation. In the conventional group, there were 2 cases of wound skin necrosis, 3 cases of wound dehiscence, 1 case of traumatic arthritis, 2 cases of wound infection, and 1 case of screw loosening. The incidence of complications in the 3D printing group (8.0%, 2/28) was significantly lower than that in the conventional group (36.0%, 9/25) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of Schatzker type VI tibial plateau fractures, compared with conventional surgery, 3D-printing-assisted surgery can lead to better curative outcomes, because it is conducive to lowering surgical difficulty, reducing postoperative complications, and promoting fracture union and functional recovery of the knee.

A series of new monobactam sulfonates is continuously synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial efficacies against Gram-negative bacteria. Compound 33a (IMBZ18G) is highly effective in vitro and in vivo against clinically intractable multi-drug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative strains, with a highly druglike nature. The checkerboard assay reveals its significant synergistic effect with β-lactamase inhibitor avibactam, and the MIC values against MDR enterobacteria were reduced up to 4-512 folds. X-ray co-crystal and chemoproteomic assays indicate that the anti-MDR bacteria effect of 33a results from the dual inhibition of the common PBP3 and some class A and C β-lactamases. Accordingly, preclinical studies of 33a alone and 33a‒avibactam combination as potential innovative candidates are actively going on, in the treatment of β-lactamase-producing MDR Gram-negative bacterial infections.

Objective:To construct a biospecimen bank of patient derived organoids (PDOs) from pancreatic cancer tissues and to explore the feasibility of PDOs drug sensitivity assay technology to guide chemotherapy drug selection for pancreatic cancer.Methods:Pancreatic cancer tissue specimens obtained after surgical resection and puncture biopsy from Mar 2020 to Dec 2022 at Drum Tower Hospital, Nanjing University School of Medicine were collected. Pancreatic cancer PDOs were cultured in vitro and histologically identified; PDOs were treated with gemcitabine, Nab-paclitaxel, fluorouracil, Oxaliplatin, and Irinotecan and cell viability was measured to analyze the correlation between PDOs drug sensitivity and the actual clinical treatment response.Results:The PDOs can reproduce the pathological features of corresponding tumor tissues; the sensitivity of different PDOs to the same chemotherapeutic drug is significantly different; The sensitivity of PDOs was highly consistent with the actual treatment effect of the corresponding patients 75.76% (25/33); organoid organ-based susceptibility testing had predictive value for the treatment response of patients (AUC=0.733, 95% CI: 0.546-0.919, P<0.05). Conclusion:A biobank of pancreatic cancer PDOs was successfully constructed, and the drug susceptibility test results were significantly correlated with the actual medication response of patients, suggesting that the drug susceptibility test technology based on PDOs has the potential to guide individualized chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer.
