Objective:To analyze the incidence of liver function injury in patients infected with 2019-nCoV omicron variant and its influencing factors.Methods:The clinical data and laboratory findings of 897 COVID-19 patients infected with omicron variant in Zhejiang province from February 23 to July 14, 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divide into liver function injury group ( n=243) and non-liver function injury group ( n=654) based on liver function indicators. The clinical characteristics and laboratory tests were compared between the two groups, and influencing factors of liver function injury were analyzed. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for data analysis. Results:The incidence of liver injury in this series was 27.09% (243/897). The median age of patients in liver injury group was older, the body mass index (BMI) was higher( Z=-6.237 and -2.166, both P<0.05), the proportions of patients with hypertension and diabetes, and with severe clinical classification were higher ( χ2=17.087, 27.509 and 12.945, all P<0.01) ; the proportion of vaccinated patients was lower ( χ2=17.766, P<0.01) than those in non-liver injury group. The levels of platelet, hemoglobin, albumin and potassium in liver injury group were lower than those in non-liver injury group ( Z=-4.631, -2.368, -10.593 and -2.141, all P<0.05), while serum ALT, AST, γ-GT, urea nitrogen, glucose and hs-CRP levels were higher than those in the non-liver injury group ( Z=-7.451, -8.663, -4.410, -3.824, -3.278 and -3.884, all P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=2.580, 95% CI 1.429-4.657, P=0.002), history of diabetes ( OR=3.650, 95% CI 1.698-7.849, P=0.001), and decreased hemoglobin ( OR=1.993, 95% CI 1.066-3.726, P=0.031) and increased hs-CRP ( OR=1.797, 95% CI 1.283-2.517, P=0.001) were risk factors associated with liver function injury, while vaccination ( OR=0.499, 95% CI 0.312-0.798, P=0.004) was the protective factor for liver function. Conclusion:Liver function injury is frequently observed in COVID-19 patients infected with omicron variant, which is linked to age, underlying disease, and elevated inflammatory markers; while vaccination can lower the risk of liver injury in infected patients.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is a common chronic liver disease with the risk of progression to nonalcoholic hepatitis, liver fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease has various pathogeneses, among which abnormal metabolism of branched-chain amino acids can induce oxidative stress, autophagy, and mitochondrial dysfunction in hepatocytes and is the most important mechanism in the development and progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. This article reviews related research advances and analyzes the possible role of abnormal metabolism of branched-chain amino acids in the development and progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, in order to improve clinical awareness and diagnosis.

Objective@#To analyze the relationship between daily behavior and self-perceived academic performance among students in Jiangxi, and to provide a scientific basis for developing health behavior among adolescents and children.@*Methods@#By using stratified cluster sampling, 12 primary and secondary schools from six counties of Jiangxi Province were selected, and a total of 2 284 students were investigated with questions including breakfast consumption, number of days participating in sports activities (≥45 min) and the average screen time during the past 7 days. Regression analysis was carried out by using ordered multi-classification logistic.@*Results@#Of the 2 284 students surveyed, 1 374(60.16%) perceived their academic performance as very good or good, 613 (26.84%) and 297(13.00%) perceived as moderate or poor. Primary school, having breakfast every day, not playing on mobile or computer during weekday was positively associated with higher self-perceived academic performance (OR=0.50, 0.57 and 0.64, respectively, P<0.05), no sports activities ≥45 min during the past 7 d was associated with poor(OR=1.57, P<0.01). Among the 2 284 students, 67.43% students ate breakfast every day in the past 7 d, 75.39% students did not play mobile phones or computers at school, 40.89% students did not participate in sports activities (≥45 min).@*Conclusion@#Breakfast skipping and insufficient physical exercise shows adverse effects, and no/limited screen time during weekdays shows positive effects on academic performance. Intervention of visky behaviors should to carried out from different perspectives to promote the develpment of the health habits among students.

Objective To explore the effect of morning nursing round and direction for key patients in geriatric comprehensive surgery department.Method Four hundred and twenty-six patients from January to December,2012 were assigned to control group,where routine morning nursing round was carried out.Another 453 patients from January to December in 2013 were assigned to observation group,where the morning nursing round and direction for key patients was carried out.The two groups were compared in terms of the general nursing quality,the rate of nurses knowing the disease condition and the rate of professional knowledge acquisition. Result After the application of morning nursing round for key patients,the general nursing quality,the rate of nurses knowing disease conditions and the rate of professional knowledge acquisition in the observation group were all significantly higher than those the control group(all P<0.05).Conclusion The morning nursing round and directions for key patients may remarkably improve the rate of nurses’knowing the disease conditions and professional knowledge acquisition and general nursing quality so that their professional skills and comprehensive quality can be further upgraded.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of postoperative patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA)in children. Methods: Forty postoperative pediatric patients(5-11 years old)were divided into two groups. A and B. Both wereinstituted with postoperative PCEA with LCP model (loading dose 2.05 + 0.13ml), continuos infusion rate 0.82 + 0.15mi/h, PCA dose 0.81 + 0.16ml)by Graseby-9300 PCA pump. The PCEA solution of group A was 0.075% bupivacaine plus0.0012 % buprenorphine, that of group B was same while 0. 005% droperidol was added as an adjuvant. Results:The volumeof PCEA sdution consumption in group B was significantly less than that in group A on the first and second postoperative day (P< 0.01-0.05). Good analgesic efficiency with little side effects was obtained, as evaluated by the VASF emasay or D/D score and complications in two groups, but the analgesic effect of group B was better than that of group A. Conclusion: Thepediatric PCEA with low concentration of bupivaeaine plus buprenorphine is feasible and safe. Droperidol may enhance theanalgesic effects of PCEA.

Objective:To evaluate the safety of patient controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA)for elderly patient. Method: Forty two adult patients after operation were divided into control group(44.4?7.8a)and old group(70.9?5.la) according to their ages. All patients reeeived epidural 0.125% bupivacaine and 0.01% morphine mixture for PCEA. BP,HR, RR and SpO_2 were monitored for the first 24 hours following PCEA. Result: The dosage of the mixture was 33.3?6.8ml in control group and 31.6?8.7ml in old group. BP,HR didn't alter markedly in both groups throughout the whole period. RR and SpO_2 remined normal levels. Conclusion: With adequate dosage PCEA can be used safely for elderly postoperative analgesia
