Objective To study the clinical effect of levosimendan combined with recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide(rhBNP)on patients with acute heart failure.Methods A total of 100 patients with acute heart failure in the hospital from December 2019 to December 2021 were selected as the research sub-jects.According to different treatment options,the subjects were divided into the control group,levosimendan group,rhBNP group and combined treatment group,with 25 cases in each group.The control group received traditional conventional diuretic,tube expansion and other treatment;the levosimendan group was treated with levosimendan on the basis of the control group;the rhBNP group was treated with rhBNP on the basis of the control group;the combined treatment group was treated with levosimendan and rhBNP on the basis of the control group.The improvement of New York Heart Association(NYHA)classification,death,rehospitaliza-tion rate,6-minute walking distance,improvement of serological indicators and adverse reactions were recor-ded in each group.Results Before treatment,there was no significant difference in baseline data between the groups(P>0.05).On the 1 st and 3 rd day after treatment,the improvement of NYHA classification in the combined treatment group was better than that in the other groups(P<0.05),and the improvement of NY-HA classification in the levosimendan group and rhBNP group was better than that in the control group(P<0.05).The readmission rate within 6 months after treatment in the combined treatment group was lower than that in the other groups(P<0.05).At 5 and 9 days after treatment,the 6-minute walking distance in the combined treatment group was longer than that in the other groups(P<0.05).At 9 days after treatment,the left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)in the combined treatment group was higher than that in the other groups(P<0.05),and the level of N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)in the combined treatment group was lower than that in the other groups(P<0.05).No significant difference was found in the comparison of the occurrence of adverse reactions among the four groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The combina-tion of levosimendan and rhBNP in the treatment of patients with acute heart failure is superior to traditional treatment and monotherapy in early clinical improvement,and dose not increase the incidence of adverse reactions.

The predictive value of serum IL-34 and suPAR for poor prognosis in children with asthma / 国际检验医学杂志

Objective To investigate the predictive value of serum interleukin(IL)-34 and soluble uroki-nase-type plasminogen activator receptor(suPAR)for poor prognosis in children with asthma.Methods A total of 184 children with asthma admitted to the hospital from January 2020 to December 2021 were enrolled in the study as the asthma group,and 184 healthy children who underwent physical examination in the hospital during the same period were enrolled as the healthy group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to measure the serum levels of IL-34 and suPAR in the two groups.The children in the asthma group were followed up for 1 year,and the prognosis was evaluated using the Asthma Control Test(ACT)score ta-ble.Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of poor prognosis in children with asthma.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the predictive value of serum IL-34 and suPAR levels for the prognosis of children with asthma.Results The asthma group had significantly higher serum levels of IL-34 and suPAR than the healthy group(P＜0.05).The incidence of poor prognosis was 22.65％(40/181).Compared with the good prognosis group,the poor prognosis group had significantly high-er proportion of children with preterm birth,passive smoking,a family history of asthma,a history of respira-tory infection,pet rearing,severe disease and serum levels of IL-34 and suPAR(P＜0.05),and a significantly lower proportion of children with breast feeding(P＜0.05).The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that preterm birth,family history of asthma,severe disease,and high levels of IL-34 and suPAR were risk factors for poor prognosis in children with asthma(P＜0.05),while breastfeeding was a protective factor(P＜0.05).The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of the combination of serum IL-34 and suPAR for predic-ting poor prognosis in children with asthma was 0.896(95％CI:0.842-0.936),which was greater than the AUC of IL-34 alone(Z=2.636,P=0.008)and the AUC of suPAR alone(Z=2.430,P=0.015).Conclusion Children with asthma have elevated serum levels of IL-34 and suPAR,both of which are risk fac-tors for poor prognosis in children with asthma.Both of them have a good predictive value for the prognosis of children with asthma,and the combination of the two has higher predictive efficiency.

Action mechanism by which fibronectin type Ⅲ domain-containing protein 5 inhibits macrophage pyroptosis / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:Fibronectin type Ⅲ domain-containing protein 5(FNDC5)is a muscle factor that can regulate glucose and lipid metabolism,and exert anti-inflammatory,anti-oxidative effects and improvement in insulin resistance.Moreover,FNDC5 could control various cell pyroptosis. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect and potential mechanism of FNDC5 on macrophage pyroptosis. METHODS:(1)After completing the construction of the lentivirus virus overexpressing FNDC5 or silencing FNDC5,the THP-1 cells were transfected with the lentivirus vector.The result of transfection was detected by the expression of green fluorescence,qPCR,and western blot assay.(2)Phorbol ester induced THP-1 cells to differentiate into macrophages.Oxidized low-density lipoprotein(ox-LDL)was added to induce the cell pyroptosis model.There were six groups,i.e.,NC group,ox-LDL group,ox-LDL+MOCK1 group,ox-LDL+Ov-FNDC5 group,ox-LDL+MOCK2 group,and ox-LDL+shFNDC5 group.(3)The level of cell pyroptosis was evaluated by Hoechst 33342/propidium iodide fluorescence double staining and lactate dehydrogenase release assay.The expression levels of related molecules in THP-1 cells were analyzed by qPCR and western blot assay.The interleukin-18 and interleukin-1β in cell supernatant were detected by ELISA. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the ox-LDL+MOCK1 group,overexpression of FNDC5 significantly reduced the pyroptosis rate of macrophages and the release levels of lactate dehydrogenase,interleukin-1β and interleukin-18,significantly inhibited the mRNA expression of NF-κB p65,NF-κB p50,NLRP3,ASC,Caspase-1,and GSDMD,and significantly inhibited the protein expression of NF-κB p65,NF-κB p50,NLRP3,ASC,cleaved Caspase-1 and GSDMD-N.Compared with the ox-LDL+MOCK2 group,the silence of FNDC5 showed the opposite result.These findings suggest that FNDC5 attenuates pyroptosis in macrophages by inhibiting the NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway.

Analysis of neuropsychological development characteristics and influencing factors in children with speech sound disorder / 中华预防医学杂志

Objective: Exploring the neuropsychological developmental characteristics and influencing factors of children with speech disorder. Methods: A case-control study was conducted. A total of 395 children diagnosed with speech disorders were selected as speech sound disorder (SSD) group from January 2019 to September 2021 in the speech-speech outpatient department of the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics, and 1 179 healthy children who underwent physical examination in the health department during the same period were selected as the control group. All the children were examined by the "Children's Neuropsychological Behavior Scale 2016 Edition" (Children's Mind Scale 2016 edition). Independent sample t test was used to compare the developmental levels of the two groups of children, including total developmental quotient, gross motor, fine motor, adaptive ability, language and social behavior ability. The influential factors of children's speech disorders were analyzed by univariate Chi-square analysis and multivariate logistic regression. Results: There were 395 SSD children, including 296 males and 99 females, 4≤ age ≤6, (4.71±0.76) years. There were 1 179 children in the control group, including 864 males and 315 females, 4≤ age ≤6, (4.64±0.78) years. The mean value of total developmental factors in SSD group was lower than that in control group [(86.45±11.57)/(91.24±8.0), t=-7.78, P<0.01], and the mean values of total developmental markers in both boys and girls in SSD group were lower than those in control group [(86.00±11.40)/(90.78±7.86), t=-6.70, P<0.01; (87.82±12.03)/(92.87±8.49), t=-3.88, P<0.01]. The mean values of gross motor, fine motor, adaptive ability, language ability and social behavior in SSD group were lower than those in control group [(89.76±12.47)/(92.01±10.69), t=-3.21, P<0.01; (80.62±13.64)/(84.49±11.55), t=-5.06, P<0.01; (87.92±15.25)/(92.98±12.06), t=-6.00, P<0.01; (86.48±16.30)/(94.55±12.08), t=-9.04, P<0.01; (87.02±15.18)/(92.63±12.57), t=-6.62, P<0.01]; The mean value of fine motor in boys was lower than that in girls in SSD group [(79.80±13.42)/(83.08±14.05), t=-2.08, P<0.05]. Independent mealtimes. 2 years old (OR=1.527, 95%CI: 1.180-1.977, P=0.001), delay in adding supplemental food (OR=1.510, 95%CI: 1.123-2.029, P=0.006), dialect in the home language environment (OR=1.351, 95%CI: 1.060-1.723, P=0.015) were risk factors for children with speech disorders. Conclusion: Children with speech disorders are more common in boys. The overall development level of SSD children is lower than that of normal children, and the fine motor of SSD boys is lower than that of girls. The incidence of children's speech disorders is related to the addition time of supplementary food, independent meal time and family language environment.

Progress in research of risk prediction of non-syndromic oral clefts using genetic information / 中华流行病学杂志

Non-syndromic oral cleft (NSOC), a common birth defect, remains to be a critical public health problem in China. In the context of adjustment of childbearing policy for two times in China and the increase of pregnancy at older childbearing age, NSOC risk prediction will provide evidence for high-risk population identification and prenatal counseling. Genome-wide association study and second generation sequencing have identified multiple loci associated with NSOC, facilitating the development of genetic risk prediction of NSOC. Despite the marked progress, risk prediction models of NSOC still faces multiple challenges. This paper summarizes the recent progress in research of NSOC risk prediction models based on the results of extensive literature retrieval to provide some insights for the model development regarding research design, variable selection, model-build strategy and evaluation methods.

A preliminary study on the prevention of hemorrhage after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy by wrapping gastroduodenal artery stump in the left external liver lobe and the left caudate lobe / 中华外科杂志

Objective: To investigate the safety and efficacy of embedding the stump of gastroduodenal artery between the left lateral lobe of the liver and the left caudate lobe to prevent bleeding after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy. Methods: The clinical data of 41 patients who underwent laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy at the second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from October 2021 to April 2022 were analyzed retrospectively.There were 27 males and 14 females, aged (63.0±9.2)years (range: 48 to 78 years), and the body mass index was (24.1±3.2)kg/m2 (range: 15.4 to 31.6 kg/m2). After routine laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy, the stump of gastroduodenal artery was embedded between the left lateral lobe and the left caudate lobe of the liver, and the hepatic parenchyma of the left lateral lobe and the left caudate lobe were sutured with absorbable sutures.The occurrence and recovery of postoperative complications (pancreatic fistula, biliary fistula, postoperative abdominal bleeding, abdominal infection, liver abscess) were observed. Results: All the operations of 41 patients were completed successfully.The operation time was (277.5±52.0) minutes (range: 192 to 360 minutes). The entrapment time of gastroduodenal artery stump was (3.1±0.6) minutes (range: 2.3 to 4.2 minutes), and the intraoperative blood loss (M(IQR)) was 300 (200) ml (range: 50 to 800 ml).The results of ultrasound examination of hepatic artery on the first day after operation showed that the blood flows of hepatic artery were unobstructed.Postoperative pancreatic fistula occurred in 3 cases, including grade B pancreatic fistula in 2 cases (1 case with abdominal infection) and biochemical leakage in 1 case. Three patients with pancreatic fistula were discharged successfully after continuous abdominal drainage. There was no biliary fistula, abdominal bleeding, abdominal infection, liver abscess or postoperative liver dysfunction. Conclusion: The encasement of the gastroduodenal artery stump by the left outer and left caudate lobes of the liver may be an effective way to prevent bleeding from the rupture of the gastroduodenal artery stump after laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy, which is easy and safe to perform.

Effects of screen exposure on language skills in children / 中华儿科杂志

Objective: To investigate the association between screen exposure and language skills in children aged 2-5 years. Methods: There were 299 children aged 2-5 years, recruited by convenience sampling from those who visited the Center of Children's Healthcare, Children's Hospital, Capital Institute of Pediatrics for routine physical examination from November 2020 to November 2021. Their development status were evaluated by the children neuropsychological and behavioral scale (revision 2016). A self-designed questionnaire for parents was conducted to collect demographic and socioeconomic information and screen exposure characteristics (time and quality). One-way ANOVA and independent sample t test were applied to compare the differences in language development quotient of children with different screen exposure time and quality. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the correlation between screen exposure time and quality with language developmental quotient. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk of language underdevelopment in children with different screen exposure time and quality. Results: Among 299 children, 184 (61.5%) were boys and 115 (38.5%) were girls, with the age of (3.9±1.1) years. The number of children with daily screen time <60, 60-120 and>120 min was 163 children (54.5%), 86 children (28.8%) and 50 children (16.7%), respectively, with the language development quotients of 94±13, 90±13, 84±14, respectively, demonstrating a statistically significant difference (F=8.92, P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis revealed that screen exposure time of 60-120 and >120 min per day were both risk factors for children's language developmental quotients (OR=2.28, 95%CI 1.00-5.17, P=0.043; OR=3.96, 95%CI 1.86-9.17, P<0.001), and co-viewing and exposure to educational programs were both protective factors for children's language developmental quotients (OR=0.48, 95%CI 0.25-0.91, P=0.024, OR=0.36, 95%CI 0.19-0.70, P=0.003). Conclusions: Excessive exposure screen time and inappropriate screen exposure habits are associated with children's poorer language development. Screen exposure time should be limited and screen use should be rational to promote children's language skills.

Perioperative management and operative treatment of malignant tumor of anal canal merging severe abdominal protuberance / 中华胃肠外科杂志

Objective: To report the perioperative management and robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery results of one case with malignant tumor of anal canal combined with severe abdominal distention. Methods: A 66-year-old male suffer from adenocarcinoma of anal canal (T3N0M0) with megacolon, megabladder and scoliosis. The extreme distention of the colon and bladder result in severe abdominal distention. The left diaphragm moved up markedly and the heart was moved to the right side of the thoracic cavity. Moreover, there was also anal stenosis with incomplete intestinal obstruction. Preoperative preparation: fluid diet, intravenous nutrition and repeated enema to void feces and gas in the large intestine 1 week before operation. Foley catheter was placed three days before surgery and irrigated with saline. After relief of abdominal distention, robotic-assisted abdominoperineal resection+ subtotal colectomy+colostomy was performed. Results: Water intake within 6 hours post-operatively; ambulance on Day 1; anal passage of gas on Day 2; semi-fluid diet on Day 3; safely discharged on Day 6. Conclusion: Robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery is safe and feasible for patients with malignant tumor of anal canal combined with severe abdominal distention after appropriate and effective preoperative preparation to relieve abdominal distention.

Secular trends of age at menarche and age at menopause in women born since 1951 from a county of Shandong Province, China / 北京大学学报(医学版)

OBJECTIVE@#To describe the secular trends of age at menarche and age at natural menopause of women from a county of Shandong Province.@*METHODS@#Based on the data of the Premarital Medical Examination and the Cervical Cancer and Breast Cancer Screening of the county, the secular trends of age at menarche in women born in 1951 to 1998 and age at menopause in women born in 1951 to 1975 were studied. Joinpoint regression was used to identify potential inflection points regarding the trend of age at menarche. Average hazard ratios (AHR) of early menopause among women born in different generations were estimated by performing multivariate weighted Cox regression.@*RESULTS@#The average age at menarche was (16.43±1.89) years for women born in 1951 and (13.99±1.22) years for women born in 1998. The average age at menarche was lower for urban women than that for rural women, and the higher the education level, the lower the average age at menarche. Joinpoint regression analysis identified three inflection points: 1959, 1973 and 1993. The average age at menarche decreased annually by 0.03 (P < 0.001), 0.08 (P < 0.001), and 0.03 (P < 0.001) years respectively for women born during 1951-1959, 1960-1973, and 1974-1993, while it remained stable for those born during 1994-1998 (P=0.968). As for age at menopause, compared with women born during 1951-1960, those born during 1961-1965, 1966-1970 and 1971-1975 showed a gradual decrease in the risk of early menopause and a tendency to delay the age at menopause. The stratified analysis presented that the risk of early menopause gradually decreased and the age of menopause showed a significant delay among those with education level of junior high school and below, but this trend was not obvious among those with education level of senior high school and above, where the risk of early menopause decreased and then increased among those with education level of college and above, and the corresponding AHRs were 0.90 (0.66-1.22), 1.07 (0.79-1.44) and 1.14 (0.79-1.66).@*CONCLUSION@#The age at menarche for women born since 1951 gradually declined until 1994 and leveled off, with a decrease of nearly 2.5 years in these years. The age at menopause for women born between 1951 and 1975 was generally delayed over time, but the trend of first increase and then decrease was observed among those with relatively higher education levels. In the context of the increasing delay in age at marriage and childbearing and the decline of fertility, this study highlights the necessity of the assessment and monitoring of women' s basic reproductive health status, especially the risk of early menopause.

Analysis of survival factors and prediction of metastasis in patients with gallbladder carcinoma / 中国现代普通外科进展

Objective:To analyze the factors affecting the survival cycle of gallbladder cancer patients and to predict whether patients had lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis in early stage by tumor markers.Methods:We reviewed the clinical data of 73 gallbladder cancer patients with definite diagnosis admitted to our hospital from January 2017 to December 2021 in surgery and followed up their survival cycles,analyzed the influence of each clinical data on patients'survival,and predicted tumor metastasis by tumor markers.Results:The univariate and multivariate analysis showed that distant metastasis,the number of positive tumor markers and TNM stage were inde-pendent factors affecting the survival of patients with gallbladder carcinoma.According to the re-ceiveroperatingcharacteristic,ROC curve drawn by tumor markers,it can be inferred that there may be lymph node metastasis when the concentrations of CEA and CA125 are higher than 7.07 ng/mL and 38.875 U/mL respectively.Conclusion:The survival cycle of patients with gallbladder cancer is affected by many factors.Screening of patients with high risk factors should be strengthened and disease progression should be judged according to the expression level of tumor markers in order to carry out effective clinical intervention.

Clinical and fundus imaging features of acute macular neuroretinopathy associated with COVID-19 / 中华眼底病杂志

Objective:To observe the clinical and fundus imaging features of acute macular neuroretinopathy (AMN) associated with COVID-19.Methods:A retrospective case study. A total of 32 eyes of 18 patients diagnosed of AMN associated with COVID-19 at Chengdu Aidi Eye Hospital from December 2022 to February 2023 were included. All patients had a history of fever 1 to 5 days prior to ocular onset and tested positive for SARS CoV-2 antigen. All patients were examined by best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), color fundus photography, scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO), infrared fundus photography (IR), and optical coherence tomography (OCT); OCT angiography, visual field and multifocal electroretinogram (mf-ERG) were performed in 6 patients (11 eyes), 3 patients (6 eyes) and 1 patient (2 eyes), respectively. Follow-up time was 8-10 weeks. The clinical and fundus imaging features were observed and analyzed.Results:There were 6 males (12 eyes) and 12 females (20 eyes), aged from 15 to 36 years, with the mean age of (28.00±5.86) years. Fourteen patients were bilateral and 4 patients were unilateral. The time from the onset of eye symptoms to seeing a doctor was ranged from 1 day to 8 weeks. Among them, 6 patients (10 eyes) visited the doctor within 3 days of onset, while 12 patients (22 eyes) visited the doctor after 3 days of onset. The BCVA was 0.80±0.29. Fundus color photography and SLO examination showed that only 2 patients (4 eyes) showed sheet or petal-like dark red lesions in the macular area, and no obvious abnormal changes were observed in other patients. No obvious abnormalities were found in AF examination of all patients. IR examination showed no significant abnormality in 6 cases which came to hospital within 3 days after the onset, but irregular hyporeflective dark shadow lesions in the macular region of patients with more than 3-day course of disease was observed. OCT examinations of all eyes showed hyperreflective band or patchy lesion on the outer plexiform layer (OPL) and outer nuclear layer (ONL) and affect the ellipsoid zone (EZ) and interdigitation zone (IZ). In 11 eyes of 6 patients undergoing OCTA examination, the blood flow density of the choroidal capillary layer in the focal area decreased. In 6 eyes of 3 patients who underwent visual field examination, the physiologic scotoma was slightly enlarged. One patient (2 eyes) receiving mf-ERG showed a concave reduction in macular center amplitude. The hyperreflective band lesion on OPL and ONL disappear rapidly within 2 weeks, while the continuity of EZ recovered slowly, and the disruption of IZ kept existing for more than 10 weeks.Conclusions:Most AMN associated with COVID-19 are young women; IR showed irregular weak reflex in the lesion area. OCT showed strong OPL and ONL reflection. OCTA was characterized by decreased blood flow density in the choroidal capillary layer of the focal area.
