Background At present, China's Public places health management regulations list 7 categories and 28 sub-categories of public places, but infant and young child swimming places are not in the list yet. Objective To understand the microbial pollution status in commercial infant and young child swimming places in Shijiazhuang City, compare with the microbial pollution in other five types of public places, and find the potential safety hazards in infant and young child swimming places. Methods A total of 3438 microbial samples were collected from the environment of infant and young child swimming places and 5 types of public places (hotels, barber stores, waiting rooms, shopping malls and supermarkets, and conventional swimming places) in Shijiazhuang City from 2021 to 2022. Sampling and monitoring were carried out according to the requirements of Examination methods for public places—Part 6: Technical specifications of health monitoring (GB/T 18204.6-2013). Chi-square test was used to compare hygiene qualification by microbial indicators, and Kruskal-Wallis H test was used to compare overall distributions of total bacterial counts on the surface of public articles. Results From 2021 to 2022, the highest qualified rate of microbial indicators on the surface of public articles was Staphylococcus aureus (100%) for all tested public places in Shijiazhuang City, followed by coliforms (99.44%), and that of total bacterial count was relative low (92.83%). The qualified rate of total bacterial count on the surface of public articles in the swimming places for infants and young children was 87.76%, and the qualified rates in hotels, barber stores, waiting rooms, shopping malls and supermarkets were all above 92%, and the difference among the 5 types of places was statistically significant (P<0.001). The highest value of total bacterial count on the surface of public articles in the swimming places for infants and young children was 80000 CFU·(25 cm²)⁻¹ [100 CFU·(25 cm²)⁻¹=4 CFU·cm⁻²]; that in 4 types of public places such as hotels (except mouthwash cups), barber stores, waiting rooms, and shopping malls or supermarkets was 2500 CFU·(25 cm²)⁻¹. The difference of total bacteria count on the surface of public articles was statistically significant in comparing infant and young child swimming places with hotels (except mouthwash cups) or barber stores (H=5.432, H=2.997, both Ps<0.05); but the difference was not significant in comparing with waiting rooms and shopping malls or supermarkets (P>0.05). The qualified rates of total bacteria count and coliforms in pool water of infant and young child swimming places were 45.99% and 74.69% respectively, and the two indicators in pool water of conventional swimming places were 94.57% and 98.91% respectively; both showed significant differences between the two types of public places (χ²=162.532, χ²=71.910, both Ps<0.001). Conclusion Compared to conventional swimming places, hotels, barber stores, waiting rooms, and shopping malls or supermarkets, the infant and young child swimming places are not optimistic in hygiene condition; therefore, there is an urgent need to formulate national health standards for infants and young child swimming places, and include them in standard management to further improve their hygiene condition.

Objective:To explore the effect of psychological nursing on the prognosis of male patients with urethral riding inju-ry treated by ureteroscopic urethral catheter implantation(UCI).Methods:This study included 63 male patients with urethral strad-dle injury treated in the General Hospital of Southern Theater Command from February 2020 to March 2023.We divided the patients into a control(n=29)and an experimental group(n=34)according to the odd-or even-numbered days of admission and treated them by ureteroscopic UCI.Meanwhile those of the former group received routine nursing care and the latter underwent psychological nursing intervention in addition.We obtained the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)and Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS)scores of the patients,recorded their postoperative pain scores,catheter-removal time,hospitalization days,postoperative complications and o-verall recovery status,and compared the data collected between the two groups.Results:At 3 days after surgery,both the SAS and SDS scores were significantly lower in the experimental group than in the control(SAS:45.2±2.9 vs 50.4±3.6,P<0.05;SDS:41.9±2.5 vs 48.3±4.0,P<0.05),and so were the pain scores at24 hours(6.2±0.6 vs 6.8±0.9,P<0.05),48 hours(4.9±0.7 vs 6.1±0.8,P<0.05)and 72 hours after surgery(2.5±0.6 vs 3.9±0.9,P<0.05).The hospitalization time was remarkably shorter in the experimental than in the control group([14.1±2.9]vs[16.1±3.4]d,P<0.05),but there was no statistically significant difference in the time of postoperative catheterization between the two groups of patients([19.3±3.7]vs[19.6±4.4]d,P>0.05).A30-day postoperative follow-up found2 cases of difficult urination in the control group but no com-plications in the experimental group.Conclusion:Ureteroscopic UCI is a safe,effective and minimally invasive treatment method for male urethral riding injury,and psychological nursing helps not only shorten the time of catheterization and hospitalization but also a-void postoperative complications.

Objective To design a novel oxygenator to solve the existing problems of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)machine in high transmembrane pressure difference,low efficiency of blood oxygen exchange and susceptibility to thrombosis.Methods The main body of the oxygenator vascular access flow field was gifted with a flat cylindrical shape.The topology of the vascular access was modeled in three dimensions,and the whole flow field was cut into a blood inlet section,an inlet buffer,a heat exchange zone,a blood oxygen exchange zone,an outlet buffer and a blood outlet section.The oxygenator was compared with Quadrox oxygenator by means of ANSYS FLUENT-based simulation and prototype experiments.Results Simulation calculations showed the oxygenator designed was comparable to the clinically used ones in general,and gained advantages in transmembrane pressure difference,blood oxygen exchange and flow uniformity.Experimental results indicated that the oxygenator behaved better than Quadrox oxygenator in transmembrane pressure difference and blood oxygen exchange.Conclusion The oxygenator has advantages in transmem-brane pressure difference,temperature change,blood oxygen ex-change and low probability of thrombosis.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(3):23-28]

Objective:To explore and analyze the clinical features and prognostic factors of secondary intestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(SI-DLBCL),in order to provide reference for the basic research and clinical diagnosis and treatment of secondary lymphoma of rare sites in the field of hematology.Methods:The clinical data of 138 patients with SI-DLBCL admitted to Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from June 2011 to June 2022 were collected and sorted,the clinical and pathological features,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis were analyzed.Cox regression risk model was used to conduct univariate and multivariate analysis on the prognostic risk factors.Results:Among the 138 patients with SI-DLBCL included in this study,85(61.59％)were male,53(38.41％)were female,the median age of onset was 59.5(16-84)years,the clinical manifestations lacked specificity,the first-line treatment regimen was mainly chemotherapy(67.39％),94 cases(68.12％)received chemotherapy alone,40 cases(28.98％)were treated with chemotherapy combined with surgery,and 4 cases(2.90％)were treated with surgery alone.The median follow-up time was 72(1-148)months.Among the 138 patients with SI-DLBCL,79(57.25％)survived,34(24.64％)died,25 cases(18.12％)lost to follow-up,the PFS rates of 1-year,3-year and 5-year were 57.97％,49.28％and 32.61％,and the OS rates of 1-year,3-year and 5-year were 60.14％,54.35％and 34.06％,respectively.The results of univariate Cox regression analysis showed that age,Lugano stage and IPI score were the influencing factors of OS in SI-DLBCL patients,and age,Lugano stage and IPI score were the influencing factors of PFS in SI-DLBCL patients.The results of multivariate Cox analysis showed that Lugano stage was an independent prognostic factor affecting OS and PFS in SI-DLBCL patients.Conclusion:Patients with SI-DLBCL are more common in middle-aged and elderly men,and the early clinical manifestations lack specificity,and the first-line treatment regimen is mainly R-CHOP chemotherapy,and Lugano stage is an independent prognostic factor affecting OS and PFS in SI-DLBCL patients.

Aim To study the effects of different peri-ods of hypoxia on gastrointestinal stress in mice by sim-ulating hypoxia environment at high altitude in a low-pressure oxygen chamber.Methods The normal con-trol group and the model group for 1,3 and 5 days were set up according to different periods of hypobaric hypoxia.The intestinal propulsion rate,visceral sensi-tivity and pathological damage of gastrointestinal tract were detected after hypobaric hypoxia treatment.The contents of IL-1 β,IL-6 and TNF-α in gastrointestinal tract and the contents of gastrointestinal hormone,di-amine oxidase and D-lactic acid were detected by en-zyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The ex-pressions of tight-junction protein and tight junction in-jury pathway protein in intestinal tissues were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the control group,the intestinal propulsion rate of the model group was accelerated,and the intestinal sensitivity in-creased.The expression of intestinal mucosal injury markers increased.Gastrointestinal motility inhibiting hormone decreased and gastrointestinal motility promo-ting hormone increased.The expression of tight junc-tion proteins ZO-1,claudin-1,occludin and VASP of tight junction injury-related pathway decreased,while the expression of NF-κB,HIF-1α and VEGF in tight junction injury-related pathway increased.The expres-sions of IL-1 β,IL-6 and TNF-α in gastrointestinal tis-sue increased.The content of pepsin in gastric tissue increased.The injury of gastrointestinal tissue was less in the 1-day group,and more serious in the 3-day and 5-day groups.Conclusions Stress injury occurs in the gastrointestinal tract of mice at different time points in hypoxia and hypoxia environment,and the gastroin-testinal function injury is more serious after three days of exposure,which may be related to the activation of NF-κB/HIF-1α/VEGF/VASP pathway.

Aim To investigate the protective effects of dendrobium polysaccharide(DOP)against paraceta-mol(APAP)-induced liver injury in mice and eluci-date its underlying mechanism.Methods Healthy male Kunming mice were randomly assigned to the fol-lowing groups:control group,APAP model group,low,medium,high-dose DOP intervention group(225,450,900 mg·kg-1),and DOP control group.The APAP model group was given 300 mg·kg-1 per day,the DOP intervention group was given DOP for 2 h and then APAP was given,and the remaining groups received an equal volume of normal saline daily for sev-en consecutive days.After the final administration,se-rum and liver samples from the mice were collected and tested after 20 hours.Liver morphology and liver coef-ficient were examined.Liver histopathological altera-tions and apoptosis were examined using HE staining and TUNEL staining.Additionally,medium biochemi-cal indexes were assessed in serum and liver tissue u-sing kits.The levels of oxidative stress,inflammation,and apoptosis-related proteins in liver tissue were de-termined using Western blotting.Results In the APAP model group,liver coefficient increased signifi-cantly,the number of liver vacuolar necrosis and apop-tosis cells increased,and the serum ALT and AST lev-els significantly increased.Compared with the APAP group,the liver coefficient,serum ALT and AST levels were significantly reduced,and the liver pathology was improved after DOP intervention,especially in the 900 mg·kg-1 group.The levels of oxidative stress and in-flammation in the APAP group increased,and the ex-pression of apoptosis,inflammation and oxidative stress related proteins in liver was unbalanced.DOP inter-vention,especially in the 900 mg·kg-1 group,could significantly reverse the oxidative stress,apoptosis and inflammatory response induced by APAP in liver,and increase the expression levels of Nrf2 and HO-1,but reduce the expression levels of NLRP3 and HMGB1.Conclusions The hepatoprotective mechanism of DOP is mainly due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory response,which may be related to the activation of Nrf2/HO-1 pathway and the inhibition of HMGB1/NL-RP3 pathway by DOP.

Purpose: Chemotherapy has been the primary treatment for patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). However, there are still patients who are not sensitive to chemotherapy, including those with refractory/relapse (R/R) disease and those experiencing minimal residual disease (MRD) re-emergence. Chimeric antigen receptor-T lymphocytes (CAR-T) therapy may provide a new treatment option for these patients. Materials and Methods: Our institution conducted a single-arm prospective clinical trial (ChiCTR-OPN-17013507) using CAR-T-19 to treat R/R B-ALL and MRD re-emergent patients. One hundred and fifteen patients, aged 1-25 years (median age, 8 years), were enrolled, including 67 R/R and 48 MRD re-emergent CD19-positive B-ALL patients. Results: All patients achieved morphologic complete remission (CR), and within 1 month after infusion, 111 out of 115 (96.5%) patients achieved MRD-negative CR. With a median follow-up time of 48.4 months, the estimated 4-year leukemia-free survival (LFS) rate and overall survival (OS) rate were 68.7%±4.5% and 70.7%±4.3%, respectively. There were no significant differences in long-term efficacy observed among patients with different disease statuses before infusion (4-year OS: MRD re-emergence vs. R/R B-ALL, 70.6%±6.6% vs. 66.5%±6.1%, p=0.755; 4-year LFS: MRD re-emergence vs. R/R B-ALL, 67.3%±7.0% vs. 63.8%±6.2%, p=0.704). R/R B-ALL patients bridging to transplantation after CAR-T treatment had a superior OS and LFS compared to those who did not. However, for MRD re-emergent patients, there was no significant difference in OS and LFS, regardless of whether they underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or not. Conclusion CD19 CAR-T therapy effectively and safely cures both R/R B-ALL and MRD re-emergent patients.

To investigate the regulation of N6- methyladenosine ( m6A ) modification on L-type calcium channels in atrial myocytes under high hydrostatic pressure, mediated by methyltransferase-like protein 3 ( METTL3 ). Methods C57BL/6J mice were randomly assigned to the control group and the hypertension group ( treated with continuous administration of angiotensin for four weeks ). Masson staining was used to observe the fibrosis of mouse atrial tissue, while dot blot assay and Western blot were used to detect the levels of m6A, METTL3, and Cavi1 2 in the atrial tissue. A high hydrostatic pressure model was constructed using the HL-1 cell line cultured in vitro, and METTL3 was intervened to observe changes in m6A expression levels, METTL3 and Cavi1 2 levels in cells,and action potential duration ( APD ) and L-type calcium current ( I

Objective:To discuss the classification and treatment of ureteroileal anastomotic stricture (UAS) after radical cystectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 34 patients with UAS after radical cystectomy in the Department of Urology of Tongji Hospital from January 2017 to January 2022 were reviewed and analyzed. There were 25 males and 9 females. The average age was (66.3±7.7)years, including 2 cases of bilateral hydronephrosis and 32 cases of unilateral hydronephrosis. The average time of UAS was detected (14.7±6.5)months after radical cystectomy. There were 32 patients of unilateral hydronephrosis and 2 patients of bilateral hydronephrosis. Two patients had undergone nephrostomy in an external hospital. Three patients had elevated leukocytes in blood routine. Among them, two patients had fever. First, nephrostomy on the hydronephrosis side and anti-infection treatment were performed. After routine blood tests showed that the white blood cells were normal and antibiotics were stopped for 24 hours without fever, the operation was performed. 34 patients had preoperative hydronephrosis of (2.7±0.6) cm. Of the 34 cases in this group, 5 cases were injected with methylene blue through a preoperative nephrostomy tube, and 29 were injected with methylene blue through the renal pelvis using an 18G puncture needle under ultrasound guidance. Using a ureteroscope to observe in the ileal bladder, methylene blue was seen in 4 cases. Methylene blue was used to guide the search for the stenosis and a super smooth guide wire was inserted. Among them, 3 cases were dilated with a 5 mm ureteral dilation balloon catheter, 1 case was dilated with a F14 ureteral access sheath, and then a F6 single J stent was inserted. Methylene blue was not seen in the ileal conduit in 30 cases, of which 16 cases were treated with a flexible ureteroscope through the nephrostomy to locate the stenosis, incised with a 30 W holmium laser. 9 cases were treated with 5 mm ureteral dilation balloon catheter, and 7 cases were treated with a F14 ureteral access sheath, and then an F6 single J stent was inserted. 14 cases were unable to find the stenosis by antegrade method. According to the operation time and patient's condition, it was decided to perform immediate or second stage dual endoscope surgery. Through the nephrostomy, a flexible ureteroscope was used to enter the stenosis along the super slide guide wire. A rigid ureteroscope was used to observe the stenosis through the ileal conduit, and the stenosis was found. The stenosis was found in 10 cases and incised with a 30 W holmium laser. 8 cases were treated with 5 mm ureteral dilation balloon catheter, and 2 cases were treated with a F14 ureteral access sheath, and then an F6 single J stent was inserted. 4 cases were still unable to accurately locate the stenosis using the dual endoscope surgery(one case was bilateral stenosis, and one side was relieved), and continued indwelling nephrostomy. The definition of successful removal of stricture in this study is that an F6 single J stent can be inserted into the ureter.Results:UAS were classified into four types based on the severity of the intraoperative findings: Type Ⅰ, the narrow ureteral lumen is more than 50% narrower than the normal ureteral lumen, but methylene blue can pass through in strands; Type Ⅱ, needle like stricture of the ureteral lumen, allowing only methylene blue filaments to pass through; Type Ⅲ, membranous atresia of the ureter, with a narrow segment of 1 to 3 mm in length, and methylene blue cannot pass through; Type Ⅳ, long segment stenosis. Of the 34 cases in this group, 4 cases were type Ⅰ, and the stenosis was dredged by retrograde method; 16 cases were type Ⅱ, and the stenotic segments were dredged by antegrade method; 10 cases were type Ⅲ, and the stenosis was dredged by the dual endoscope surgery; Four cases were of type Ⅳ (one case was of bilateral UAS, one side was of type Ⅲ, and the other side was of type Ⅳ, which was classified as type Ⅳ). The stenotic segment could not be solved through the above methods. Among the 34 patients, 30 patients were successfully relieved of anastomotic obstruction, and 1 patient with bilateral obstruction was unilaterally relieved of anastomotic obstruction. In the other 3 cases, because the stenosis segment was too long, 2 cases were changed to nephrostomy, and 1 case was changed to open surgery, with a success rate of 88.2%. UAS was classified into 4 types based on the severity of UAS seen during surgery. No serious complications occurred during and after the operation. During the follow-up of 6-24 months, the imaging evaluation of 4 patients showed that hydronephrosis was aggravated, with an average increase in creatinine of (32.5±10.9)μmol/L, requiring replacement of a single J tube. The imaging evaluation of the remaining 26 patients showed that the postoperative hydronephrosis was 0.9 ± 0.6 cm less than the preoperative hydronephrosis 2.6 ± 0.6 cm, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.01). The quality of life score at 3 months after surgery was (1.9±0.6), which was significantly improved compared to the preoperative indwelling nephrostomy period (5.2±0.7), with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.01) Conclusions:The treatment of UAS after radical cystectomy with retrograde, antegrade, and dual endoscope surgery has a high success rate, which can help some patients avoid the inconvenience of indwelling external drainage tubes and the risk of open surgery. Choosing an appropriate surgical method can achieve the goal of treating UAS with minimal trauma.
