Abstract
Objective: To explore the causes and therapeutic effects of pelvic pain caused by rectal fistula or bladder fistula after comprehensive treatment of cervical cancer and rectal cancer (radiotherapy, surgery, chemotherapy, and other treatments). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical and pathological data of patients with pelvic tumors admitted to the First People's Hospital of Yinchuan City, Ningxia and the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2016 to June 2022. The causes of persistent pelvic pain in patients after comprehensive treatment was investigated, and the corresponding therapeutic effects after clinical treatment was observed. Results: Thirty-two tumor patients experienced persistent pain after comprehensive treatment, including 22 cases of cervical cancer and 10 cases of rectal cancer. The preoperative pain of the entire group of patients was evaluated using the digital grading method, with a pain score of (7.88±1.31) points. Among the 32 patients, there were 16 cases of rectovaginal fistula or ileovaginal fistula, 9 cases of vesicovaginal fistula, 5 cases of rectoperineal fistula, and 2 cases of vesicovaginorectal fistula. Thirty-two patients were initially treated with medication to relieve pain, and according to the ruptured organs, a fistula was made to the corresponding proximal intestinal canal and renal pelvis to intercept the intestinal contents and urine. However, the pain did not significantly be improved. The pain score of treatment with the above methods for one week was (8.13±1.13) points, and there was no statistically significant difference compared to preoperative treatment (P=0.417). In the later stage, based on a comprehensive evaluation of whether the tumor had recurred, the value of organ preservation, the benefits of surgery, the balance between survival time and improving quality of life, pathological organ resection or repair was performed. The surgical methods included repair of leaks, local debridement combined with irrigation of proximal intestinal fluid, distal closure of the sigmoid colon combined with proximal ostomy, posterior pelvic organ resection, anterior pelvic organ resection, and total pelvic organ resection. One week after surgery, the patients' pain completely relieved or disappeared, with the pain score of (1.72±1.37) points, which was significantly divergent from the preoperative and initial surgical treatments (P<0.001). Conclusions: Palliative pyelostomy and proximal enterostomy cannot effectively alleviate persistent pelvic floor pain. The fundamental way to alleviate pain is complete blocking of the inflammatory erosion of the intestinal fluid and urine.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the early clinical characteristics of elderly patients with severe burns and the risk factors on prognosis. Methods: This study was a retrospective case series study. Clinical data of 124 elderly patients with severe burns who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to the 12 hospitals from January 2015 to December 2020 were collected, including 4 patients from the Fourth People's Hospital of Dalian, 5 patients from Fujian Medical University Union Hospital, 22 patients from Guangzhou Red Cross Hospital of Jinan University, 5 patients from Heilongjiang Provincial Hospital, 27 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, 9 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, 10 patients from Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University, 9 patients from Tongren Hospital of Wuhan University & Wuhan Third Hospital, 12 patients from the 924th Hospital of PLA, 6 patients from Zhangjiagang First People's Hospital, 4 patients from Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province, and 11 patients from Zhengzhou First People's Hospital. The patients' overall clinical characteristics, such as gender, age, body mass index, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, inhalation injury, causative factors, whether combined with underlying medical diseases, and admission time after injury were recorded. According to the survival outcome within 28 days after injury, the patients were divided into survival group (89 cases) and death group (35 cases). The following data of patients were compared between the two groups, including the basic data and injuries (the same as the overall clinical characteristics ahead); the coagulation indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time, D-dimer, fibrinogen degradation product (FDP), international normalized ratio (INR), and fibrinogen; the blood routine indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as white blood cell count, platelet count, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, monocyte count, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and hematocrit; the organ function indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as direct bilirubin, total bilirubin, urea, serum creatinine, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, total protein, albumin, globulin, blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, alkaline phosphatase, creatine kinase, electrolyte indexes (potassium, sodium, chlorine, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus in blood), uric acid, myoglobin, and brain natriuretic peptide; the infection and blood gas indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, pH value, oxygenation index, base excess, and lactate; treatment such as whether conducted with mechanical ventilation, whether conducted with continuous renal replacement therapy, whether conducted with anticoagulation therapy, whether applied with vasoactive drugs, and fluid resuscitation. The analysis was conducted to screen the independent risk factors for the mortality within 28 days after injury in elderly patients with severe burns. Results: Among 124 patients, there were 82 males and 42 females, aged 60-97 years, with body mass index of 23.44 (21.09, 25.95) kg/m2, total burn area of 54.00% (42.00%, 75.00%) total body surface area (TBSA), and full-thickness burn area of 25.00% (10.00%, 40.00%) TBSA. The patients were mainly combined with moderate to severe inhalation injury and caused by flame burns. There were 43 cases with underlying medical diseases. The majority of patients were admitted to the hospital within 8 hours after injury. There were statistically significant differences between patients in the 2 groups in terms of age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, and inhalation injury, and PT, APTT, D-dimer, FDP, INR, white blood cell count, platelet count, urea, serum creatinine, blood glucose, blood sodium, uric acid, myoglobin, and urine volume within the first 24 hours of injury (with Z values of 2.37, 5.49, 5.26, 5.97, 2.18, 1.95, 2.68, 2.68, 2.51, 2.82, 2.14, 3.40, 5.31, 3.41, 2.35, 3.81, 2.16, and -3.82, respectively, P<0.05); there were statistically significant differences between two groups of patients in whether conducted with mechanical ventilation and whether applied with vasoactive drugs (with χ2 values of 9.44 and 28.50, respectively, P<0.05). Age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, serum creatinine within the first 24 hours of injury, and APTT within the first 24 hours of injury were the independent risk factors for the mortality within 28 days after injury in elderly patients with severe burns (with odds ratios of 1.17, 1.10, 1.10, 1.09, and 1.27, 95% confidence intervals of 1.03-1.40, 1.04-1.21, 1.05-1.19, 1.05-1.17, and 1.07-1.69, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusions: The elderly patients with severe burns had the injuries mainly from flame burns, often accompanied by moderate to severe inhalation injury and enhanced inflammatory response, elevated blood glucose levels, activated fibrinolysis, and impaired organ function in the early stage, which are associated with their prognosis. Age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, and serum creatinine and APTT within the first 24 hours of injury are the independent risk factors for death within 28 days after injury in this population.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the value of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), pediatric sequential organ failure assessment (pSOFA) and pediatric critical illness score (PCIS) in predicting mortality of pediatric sepsis in pediatric intensive care units (PICU) from Southwest China. Methods: This was a prospective multicenter observational study. A total of 447 children with sepsis admitted to 12 PICU in Southwest China from April 2022 to March 2023 were enrolled. Based on the prognosis, the patients were divided into survival group and non-survival group. The physiological parameters of SIRS, pSOFA and PCIS were recorded and scored within 24 h after PICU admission. The general clinical data and some laboratory results were recorded. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve was used to compare the predictive value of SIRS, pSOFA and PCIS in mortality of pediatric sepsis. Results: Amongst 447 children with sepsis, 260 patients were male and 187 patients were female, aged 2.5 (0.8, 7.0) years, 405 patients were in the survival group and 42 patients were in the non-survival group. 418 patients (93.5%) met the criteria of SIRS, and 440 patients (98.4%) met the criteria of pSOFA≥2. There was no significant difference in the number of items meeting the SIRS criteria between the survival group and the non-survival group (3(2, 4) vs. 3(3, 4) points, Z=1.30, P=0.192). The pSOFA score of the non-survival group was significantly higher than that of the survival group (9(6, 12) vs. 4(3, 7) points, Z=6.56, P<0.001), and the PCIS score was significantly lower than that of the survival group (72(68, 81) vs. 82(76, 88) points, Z=5.90, P<0.001). The predictive value of pSOFA (AUC=0.82) and PCIS (AUC=0.78) for sepsis mortality was significantly higher than that of SIRS (AUC=0.56) (Z=6.59, 4.23, both P<0.001). There was no significant difference between pSOFA and PCIS (Z=1.35, P=0.176). Platelet count, procalcitonin, lactic acid, albumin, creatinine, total bilirubin, activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time and international normalized ratio were all able to predict mortality of sepsis to a certain degree (AUC=0.64, 0.68, 0.80, 0.64, 0.68, 0.60, 0.77, 0.75, 0.76, all P<0.05). Conclusion: Compared with SIRS, both pSOFA and PCIS had better predictive value in the mortality of pediatric sepsis in PICU.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intracellular Ca2+ cycling determines myocardial contraction and relaxation in response to physiological demands. SERCA2a (sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase 2a) is responsible for the sequestration of cytosolic Ca2+ into intracellular stores during cardiac relaxation, and its activity is reversibly inhibited by PLN (phospholamban). However, the regulatory hierarchy of SERCA2a activity remains unclear. METHODS Cardiomyocyte-specific ZBTB20 knockout mice were generated by crossing ZBTB20flox mice with Myh6-Cre mice. Echocardiography, blood pressure measurements, Langendorff perfusion, histological analysis and immunohistochemistry, quantitative reverse transcription-PCR, Western blot analysis, electrophysiological measurements, and chromatin immunoprecipitation assay were performed to clarify the phenotype and elucidate the molecular mechanisms. RESULTS Specific ablation of ZBTB20 in cardiomyocyte led to a significant increase in basal myocardial contractile parameters both in vivo and in vitro, accompanied by an impairment in cardiac reserve and exercise capacity. Moreover, the cardiomyocytes lacking ZBTB20 showed an increase in sarcoplasmic reticular Ca2+ content and exhibited a remarkable enhancement in both SERCA2a activity and electrically stimulated contraction. Mechanistically, PLN expression was dramatically reduced in cardiomyocytes at the mRNA and protein levels by ZBTB20 deletion or silencing, and PLN overexpression could largely restore the basal contractility in ZBTB20-deficient cardiomyocytes. CONCLUSIONS These data point to ZBTB20 as a fine-tuning modulator of PLN expression and SERCA2a activity, thereby offering new perspective on the regulation of basal contractility in the mammalian heart.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the levels of sex hormone and fertility in female patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), as well as their correlation with conditioning regimens, and analyse the effect of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in young women after HSCT. Methods: Retrospective case series study. The clinical data of 147 women who underwent HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2010 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The sex hormone levels were measured and followed-up, and the survival, menstrual fertility and the use of HRT of the patients were also followed-up. The sex hormone levels were measured after transplantation, and the ovarian function was evaluated. Independent sample t test and χ2 test were used for comparison between the two groups. Results: The median age of the 147 patients was 26 (range, 10-45) years. Of them, 135 patients received allogeneic HSCT and 12 patients received autologous HSCT. Furthermore, 129 patients received myeloablative conditioning, and 18 patients received reduced conditioning dose. The median follow-up time was 50 months (range, 18-134 months). Five patients died of disease recurrence during follow-up. Of the 54 patients with subcutaneous injection of zoladex, three recovered menstruation spontaneously after transplantation, and all of them were myeloablative conditioning patients, one patient gave birth to twins through assisted reproductive technology. Ninety-three patients did not use zoladex before conditioning, two patients with aplastic anemia with non-myeloablative transplantation resumed menstruation spontaneously, and conceived naturally. The level of follicle stimulating hormone after transplantation in patients receiving myeloablative conditioning regimen was significantly higher than that in patients receiving reduced-dose conditioning regimen [(95.28±3.94) U/L vs. (71.85±10.72) U/L, P=0.039]. Among 147 patients, 122 patients developed premature ovarian failure, 83 patients received sex hormone replacement therapy after transplantation, and 76 patients recovered menstruation and improved endocrine function. Conclusions: The incidence of premature ovarian failure is high in female patients after HSCT, and patients have a chance at natural conception. Reducing the dose of conditioning regimen and the application of zoladex before transplantation can reduce ovarian of conditioning drugs. HRT after transplantation can partially improve the endocrine function of patients.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the safety and reliability of retrosigmoid approach BONEBRIDGE implantation in patients with auricle reconstruction using skin expansion flap. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 43 congenital aural atresia cases (43 ears) who underwent BONEBRIDGE implantation from September 2019 to January 2023 in Beijing Tongren Hospital. 30 males and 13 females were included in this work. The implantation age was 9-36 years old (median age=10 y/o). All cases underwent auricle reconstruction surgery using the posterior ear flap expansion method, with 36 cases using the single expanded postauricular flap method and 7 cases using two-flap method. BONEBRIDGE implant surgery was performed during the third stage of auricle reconstruction or after all stages. The hearing improvements were evaluated by comparing the changes in pure tone hearing threshold and speech recognition rate of patients before and after BONEBRIDGE implantation. Routine follow-up was conducted to observe the hearing results and complications. SPSS 14.0 software was applied for data statistical analysis. Results: All 43 patients healed well and had no surgical complications when discharge. The average bone conduction hearing threshold after surgery was (8.2±6.6) dBHL, and there was no statistically significant difference compared to the preoperative [(8.1±5.7) dBHL] (P=0.95). After surgery, the threshold of hearing assistance with power on was significantly lower than that without hearing assistance [(32.8±4.6) dBHL vs (60.5±5.5) dBHL], and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). The speech recognition rate of monosyllable words, disyllabic words and short sentences in quiet environment increased to 72%, 84%, and 98% respectively. The differences were statistically significant (P<0.001). The speech recognition rate of monosyllabic words, disyllabic words, and short sentences in noise environment was significantly increased by 70%, 80%, and 92% respectively (P<0.001). After a follow-up of 4 to 47 months (median=24 months), the hearing results were stable and the aesthetic outcomes were satisfying. One patient had delayed hematoma around coil of the implant. After aspiration and compressed dressing for one week, hematoma was not recurrent. Conclusion: For patients after auricle reconstruction using expanded postauricular flap, the preference of retrosigmoid approach is a good choice in terms of safety and reliability of operation, as well as aesthetic appearance.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the differences in the prevalence of mild micro-hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) among patients with cirrhosis by using the psychometric hepatic encephalopathy score (PHES) and the Stroop smartphone application (Encephal App) test. Methods: This prospective, multi-center, real-world study was initiated by the National Clinical Medical Research Center for Infectious Diseases and the Portal Hypertension Alliance and registered with International ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05140837). 354 cases of cirrhosis were enrolled in 19 hospitals across the country. PHES (including digital connection tests A and B, digital symbol tests, trajectory drawing tests, and serial management tests) and the Stroop test were conducted in all of them. PHES was differentiated using standard diagnostic criteria established by the two studies in China and South Korea. The Stroop test was evaluated based on the criteria of the research and development team. The impact of different diagnostic standards or methods on the incidence of MHE in patients with cirrhosis was analyzed. Data between groups were differentiated using the t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and χ (2) test. A kappa test was used to compare the consistency between groups. Results: After PHES, the prevalence of MHE among 354 cases of cirrhosis was 78.53% and 15.25%, respectively, based on Chinese research standards and Korean research normal value standards. However, the prevalence of MHE was 56.78% based on the Stroop test, and the differences in pairwise comparisons among the three groups were statistically significant (kappa = -0.064, P < 0.001). Stratified analysis revealed that the MHE prevalence in three groups of patients with Child-Pugh classes A, B, and C was 74.14%, 83.33%, and 88.24%, respectively, according to the normal value standards of Chinese researchers, while the MHE prevalence rates in three groups of patients with Child-Pugh classes A, B, and C were 8.29%, 23.53%, and 38.24%, respectively, according to the normal value standards of Korean researchers. Furthermore, the prevalence rates of MHE in the three groups of patients with Child-Pugh grades A, B, and C were 52.68%, 58.82%, and 73.53%, respectively, according to the Stroop test standard. However, among the results of each diagnostic standard, the prevalence of MHE showed an increasing trend with an increasing Child-Pugh grade. Further comparison demonstrated that the scores obtained by the number connection test A and the number symbol test were consistent according to the normal value standards of the two studies in China and South Korea (Z = -0.982, -1.702; P = 0.326, 0.089), while the other three sub-tests had significant differences (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The prevalence rate of MHE in the cirrhotic population is high, but the prevalence of MHE obtained by using different diagnostic criteria or methods varies greatly. Therefore, in line with the current changes in demographics and disease spectrum, it is necessary to enroll a larger sample size of a healthy population as a control. Moreover, the establishment of more reliable diagnostic scoring criteria will serve as a basis for obtaining accurate MHE incidence and formulating diagnosis and treatment strategies in cirrhotic populations.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the value of nasal nitric oxide (nNO) measurement as a diagnostic tool for Chinese patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). Methods: This study is a retrospective study. The patients were recruited from those who were admitted to the respiratory Department of Respiratory Medicine, Children's Hospital of Fudan University from March 2018 to September 2022. Children with PCD were included as the PCD group, and children with situs inversus or ambiguus, cystic fibrosis (CF), bronchiectasis, chronic suppurative lung disease and asthma were included as the PCD symptom-similar group. Children who visited the Department of Child health Care and urology in the same hospital from December 2022 to January 2023 were selected as nNO normal control group. nNO was measured during plateau exhalation against resistance in three groups. Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze the nNO data. The receiver operating characteristic of nNO value for the diagnosis of PCD was plotted and, the area under the curve and Youden index was calculated to find the best cut-off value. Results: nNO was measured in 40 patients with PCD group, 75 PCD symptom-similar group (including 23 cases of situs inversus or ambiguus, 8 cases of CF, 26 cases of bronchiectasis or chronic suppurative lung disease, 18 cases of asthma), and 55 nNO normal controls group. The age of the three groups was respectively 9.7 (6.7,13.4), 9.3 (7.0,13.0) and 9.9 (7.3,13.0) years old. nNO values were significantly lower in children with PCD than in PCD symptom-similar group and nNO normal controls (12 (9,19) vs. 182 (121,222), 209 (165,261) nl/min, U=143.00, 2.00, both P<0.001). In the PCD symptom-similar group, situs inversus or ambiguus, CF, bronchiectasis or chronic suppurative lung disease and asthma were significantly higher than children with PCD (185 (123,218), 97 (52, 132), 154 (31, 202), 266 (202,414) vs. 12 (9,19) nl/min,U=1.00, 9.00, 133.00, 0, all P<0.001). A cut-off value of 84 nl/min could provide the best sensitivity (0.98) and specificity (0.92) with an area under the curve of 0.97 (95%CI 0.95-1.00, P<0.001). Conclusions: nNO value can draw a distinction between patients with PCD and others. A cut-off value of 84 nl/min is recommended for children with PCD.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of polymyxin B in neutropenic patients with hematologic disorders who had refractory gram-negative bacterial bloodstream infection. Methods: From August 2021 to July 2022, we retrospectively analyzed neutropenic patients with refractory gram-negative bacterial bloodstream infection who were treated with polymyxin B in the Department of Hematology of the First Affiliated Hospital of the Soochow University between August 2021 to July 2022. The cumulative response rate was then computed. Results: The study included 27 neutropenic patients with refractory gram-negative bacterial bloodstream infections. Polymyxin B therapy was effective in 22 of 27 patients. The median time between the onset of fever and the delivery of polymyxin B was 3 days [interquartile range (IQR) : 2-5]. The median duration of polymyxin B treatment was 7 days (IQR: 5-11). Polymyxin B therapy had a median antipyretic time of 37 h (IQR: 32-70). The incidence of acute renal dysfunction was 14.8% (four out of 27 cases), all classified as "injury" according to RIFLE criteria. The incidence of hyperpigmentation was 59.3%. Conclusion: Polymyxin B is a viable treatment option for granulocytopenia patients with refractory gram-negative bacterial bloodstream infections.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the causes and management of long-term persistent pelvic presacral space infection. Methods: Clinical data of 10 patients with persistent presacral infection admitted to the Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2015 to October 2020 were collected. Different surgical approaches were used to treat the presacral infection according to the patients' initial surgical procedures. Results: Among the 10 patients, there were 2 cases of presacral recurrent infection due to rectal leak after radiotherapy for cervical cancer, 3 cases of presacral recurrent infection due to rectal leak after radiotherapy for rectal cancer Dixons, and 5 cases of presacral recurrent infection of sinus tract after adjuvant radiotherapy for rectal cancer Miles. Of the 5 patients with leaky bowel, 4 had complete resection of the ruptured nonfunctional bowel and complete debridement of the presacral infection using an anterior transverse sacral incision with a large tipped omentum filling the presacral space; 1 had continuous drainage of the anal canal and complete debridement of the presacral infection using an anterior transverse sacral incision. 5 post-Miles patients all had debridement of the presacral infection using an anterior transverse sacral incision combined with an abdominal incision. The nine patients with healed presacral infection recovered from surgery in 26 to 210 days, with a median time of 55 days. Conclusions: Anterior sacral infections in patients with leaky gut are caused by residual bowel secretion of intestinal fluid into the anterior sacral space, and in post-Miles patients by residual anterior sacral foreign bodies. An anterior sacral caudal transverse arc incision combined with an abdominal incision is an effective surgical approach for complete debridement of anterior sacral recalcitrant infections.

Abstract
A 28-year-old male with a history of leukopenia was admitted with complaints of fever, cough, and dyspnea for 3 months. Initial work-up identified reduced circulating levels of granulocytes, monocytes, lymphocytes, and NK cells. Computed tomography revealed bilateral reticulonodular opacities and mediastinal lymph node enlargement. Peripheral blood culture and mediastinal lymph node aspiration yielded Mycobacterium avium. Genetic testing revealed a heterozygous germline GATA2 mutation (c.1187G>A, R396Q). Despite standard anti-mycobacterial therapy, the patient's dyspnea worsened and subsequent imaging studies revealed diffuse ground-glass opacification. A transbronchial lung biopsy confirmed the development of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis. Bone marrow transplantation had not been performed due to the unavailability of suitable donors. The disease progressed after whole lung lavage, and the patient died at the age of 31 years from respiratory failure. The current case report emphasized the importance of raising awareness about the rare GATA2 deficiency, which is characterized by hematologic abnormalities, primary immunodeficiency, and pulmonary alveolar proteinosis.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical characteristics, the correlation between lactate, procalcitonin and disease severity of imported malaria from Africa. Methods: The clinical data of 186 patients with imported malaria were collected from January 1, 2018 to April 30, 2021 in the Guangzhou Eighth People's Hospital, Guangzhou Medical University. The general conditions, clinical symptoms, laboratory tests, treatment, and prognosis of the patients were analyzed retrospectively. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn to evaluate the value of relevant indicators in predicting severe malaria. Results: A total of 186 patients were divided into severe cases (n=48) and non-severe cases (n=138) in this study, of which the mean age was (38.3±10.3) years, 169(90.9%) cases were male, 17(9.1%) cases were female. The main infection species was Plasmodium falciparum, in a total of 166 cases (89.2%). The severe cases were all falciparum malarias. Compared with the non-severe group, the lactic, procalcitonin, white blood cell count and neutrophil count of the severe group were all increased, the differences were all statistically significant (all P<0.01); the percentage of monocytes, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, hematocrit and platelet count were all decreased, the difference were all statistically significant (all P<0.01). The areas under the ROC curves (AUC)(95%CI) of lactate, procalcitonin, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, hematocrit and platelet count for predicting severe malaria was 0.753(0.663-0.844), 0.755(0.670-0.841), 0.782(0.700-0.864), 0.738(0.652-0.823), 0.760(0.676-0.844), 0.778(0.699-0.857), respectively (all P<0.01). When the Youden indexes were at their maximum, the best cut-off value of lactic was 2.29 mmol/L, with sensitivity in predicting of severe malaria was 56.3%, and the specificity was 93.5%; the best cut-off value of procalcitonin was 2.12 μg/L, with sensitivity in predicting of severe malaria was 77.1%, and the specificity was 68.1%. The fatality rate of severe malaria was 4.2% (2/48). Conclusions: Anemia and thrombocytopenia are common indicators for predicting the severity of malaria. Lactic and procalcitonin also have higher predictive value for severe malaria, which could help to identify severe malaria as early as possible, improve the cure rate and reduce the risk of death.

Abstract
To analyze whether the serum concentration of estradiol on the day of progesterone conversion could predict the pregnancy outcome of frozen-thawed embryo transfer in hormone replacement cycle. In this paper, a case-control study was conducted to retrospectively analyze the 230 cycles of hormone replacement therapy-frozen thawed embryo transfer(HRT-FET)conducted by the Department of Reproductive Medicine, Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2018 to December 2020. The concentration of serum estradiol was between 139.5-3 941.0 pg/ml. According to the percentile of serum estradiol concentration on the day of endometrial transformation, patients were divided into three groups: control group (<25th percentile, n=58), high estradiol group (25th-75th percentile, n=112) and ultra-high estradiol group (>75th percentile, n=60). Comparing the basic characteristics and pregnancy outcome of the three groups, the main observation index was the live birth rate, and the secondary observation index was the clinical pregnancy rate. F test and Kruskal-Wallis (H) test were used to compare the measurement data, and χ2 test was used to compare the counting data. The results showed that there was no significant difference in age, anti-Müllerian hormone(AMH), antral follicle count(AFC), body mass index(BMI), years of infertility and the proportion of primary infertility among the three groups(F=2.375, H=5.479, H=5.374, F=1.391, H=4.779, χ²=1.969, P>0.05). FET cycle treatment: There was no significant difference in the concentration of progesterone (P) before transformation, the thickness of endometrium on the day of transformation, the proportion of single embryo transfer and blastocyst transfer among the three groups (H=5.359, H=5.957, χ²=0.626, χ²=4.532, P>0.05). The days of estrogen administration before endometrial transformation in the three groups during the FET cycle were 13.0 (12.0, 14.0) days in the high estradiol group and 13.0 (12.0, 15.0) days in the ultra-high estradiol group, which were significantly longer than those in the control group 13.0(12.0, 13.3)days. The E2 concentration before intimal transformation in high estradiol group was 1 560.4 (1 170.2, 1 848.2) pg/ml, while that in ultra-high estradiol group was 2 420.9 (2 131.0, 2 849.2) pg/ml, which was significantly higher than that in control group 238.8 (206.9, 287.0) pg/ml. The pregnancy outcome of the three groups: the clinical pregnancy rate of the three groups was 37.9% in the control group, 51.8% in the high estradiol group and 40.0% in the ultra-high estradiol group, of which the high estradiol group had the highest clinical pregnancy rate, followed by the ultra-high estradiol group. But there was no significant difference among the three groups (χ²=3.853, P>0.05). The embryo implantation rate of the three groups was 19.3%, 25.0%, 32.8%, respectively, and the embryo implantation rate of the ultra-high estradiol group was the highest, but there was no significant difference among the three groups (χ²=5.544,P>0.05).The live birth rate of the three groups was 37.9%, 39.3%, 40.0%, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (χ²=0.05, P>0.05). A total of 14(13.5%) abortions occurred in 104 clinical pregnancies, all of which occurred in the high estradiol level group. Of the 104 clinical pregnancies, 24 (23.1%) had twin pregnancies, which occurred in the high estradiol level group (10 cases) and the ultra-high estradiol level group (14 cases). There were no twin pregnancies in the control group. Ectopic pregnancy occurred in 4 of 230 FET cycles (1.7%), 2 in control group and 2 in high estradiol group, and no ectopic pregnancy in ultra-high estradiol group.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the correlation of bispectral index (BIS) with the prognosis of patients with acute severe carbon monoxide poisoning (ASCMP) and its predictive value of adverse outcomes. Methods: In March 2021, 106 ASCMP patients who were treated in Harrison International Peace Hospital Affiliated to Hebei Medical University from January 2019 to December 2020 were taken as research objects. All patients underwent 24-hour BIS monitoring after admission, and were divided into good prognosis group (n=75) and poor prognosis group (n=31) according to the prognosis of the patients' cranial nerve function after 60 d. The general conditions, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score at admission and 24-hour BIS mean were compared between the two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlations between the 24-hour BIS mean and GCS score at admission, APACHEⅡ score and coma time. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to analyze the predictive value of 24-hour BIS mean, GCS score at admission, APACHEⅡ score and coma time on adverse outcome of ASCMP patients. Results: The coma time and APACHEⅡ score of the patients in the poor prognosis group were significantly higher than those in the good prognosis group, the GCS score at admission and 24-hour BIS mean were significantly lower than those in the good prognosis group (P<0.05) . Pearson correlation analysis showed that the 24-hour BIS mean was positively correlated with the GCS score at admission, and negatively correlated with the APACHEⅡ score, coma time (r=0.675, -0.700, -0.565, P<0.001) . The 24-hour BIS mean had the highest predictive value for adverse outcome of ASCMP patients, with a cut-off value of 74, the area under the curve was 0.883 (95%CI: 0.814-0.951, P<0.001) , and the sensitivity and specificity were 73.3% and 87.1%, respectively. Conclusion: The 24-hour BIS mean has a good correlation with the acute brain nerve injury, the severity of the disease and coma time of patients with ASCMP. And it has a high predictive value for the adverse outcome in patients with ASCMP.

Abstract
The accurate diagnosis of burn wound depth is particularly important for evaluating the disease prognosis of burn patients. In the past, the diagnosis of burn wound depth often relied on the subjective judgment of doctors. With the continuous development of diagnostic technology, the methods for judging the depth of burn wound have also been updated. This paper mainly summarizes the research progress in the applications of indocyanine green angiography, laser Doppler imaging, laser speckle contrast imaging, and artificial intelligence in the diagnosis of burn wound depth, and compares the advantages and disadvantages of these techniques, so as to provide ideas for accurate diagnosis of burn wound depth.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the changes in tobacco use and exposure in primary school students in Shandong province in 2012 and 2019. Methods: A multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used in the survey. In 2012 and 2019, 5 861 and 4 021 students from 3 different cities of Shandong province were selected as the study population. The questionnaire was filled anonymously by the subjects. χ2 test was conducted to compare the difference of groups. Results: In 2012 and 2019, the rate of attempting smoking among pupils under this study in Shandong province were 6.0%and 6.3%, respectively, while the current smoking rate were 1.2%and 2.3%, respectively. The sex ratio of male and female students attempting to smoke was 2.56∶1 in 2012 and 1.31∶1 in 2019. The sex ratio of current smoking rate was 2.43∶1 and 2.00∶1, respectively in 2012 and in 2019. The rate of tobacco exposure in the public places was 50.5%and 41.4%, respectively. The rate of tobacco exposure in family was 49.7% and 46.4%, respectively. Two rates of tobacco exposure decreased, but the reduction in family (3.3%) was far less than that in public places (9.1%). In 2019, the rate of tobacco exposure in family was higher than that in public places. Conclusions: The tobacco exposure rate declined in senior pupils in Shandong province. However, the situation is still grim for the current smoking rate, growth trend of girls tobacco use, and tobacco exposure in family.

The zinc finger and BTB domain containing protein ZBTB20 regulates plasma triglyceride metabolism by repressing lipoprotein lipase gene transcription in hepatocytes. Hepatology 2022; 75:1169-1180.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is responsible for the lipolytic processing of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, the deficiency of which causes severe hypertriglyceridemia. Liver LPL expression is high in suckling rodents but relatively low at adulthood. However, the regulatory mechanism and functional significance of liver LPL expression are incompletely understood. We have established the zinc finger protein ZBTB20 as a critical factor for hepatic lipogenesis. Here, we evaluated the role of ZBTB20 in regulating liver Lpl gene transcription and plasma triglyceride metabolism. APPROACH AND RESULTS Hepatocyte-specific inactivation of ZBTB20 in mice led to a remarkable increase in LPL expression at the mRNA and protein levels in adult liver, in which LPL protein was mainly localized onto sinusoidal epithelial cells and Kupffer cells. As a result, the LPL activity in postheparin plasma was substantially increased, and postprandial plasma triglyceride clearance was significantly enhanced, whereas plasma triglyceride levels were decreased. The dysregulated liver LPL expression and low plasma triglyceride levels in ZBTB20-deficient mice were normalized by inactivating hepatic LPL expression. ZBTB20 deficiency protected the mice against high-fat diet-induced hyperlipidemia without causing excessive triglyceride accumulation in the liver. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and gel-shift assay studies revealed that ZBTB20 binds to the LPL promoter in the liver. A luciferase reporter assay revealed that ZBTB20 inhibits the transcriptional activity of LPL promoter. The regulation of LPL expression by ZBTB20 is liver-specific under physiological conditions. CONCLUSIONS Liver ZBTB20 serves as a key regulator of LPL expression and plasma triglyceride metabolism and could be a therapeutic target for hypertriglyceridemia.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of ultrasonic parameter settings on maximum temperatures in the drilling site and penetration time and determine the most suitable parameters for efficient and safe robot-based ultrasonic bone drilling in spinal surgery. Methods: Five adult bovine thoracic and lumbar vertebrae specimens (T10-L6) were cut into 10 mm thick slices. A total of 50 slices were obtained. Among them, 30 and 20 slices were used for cancellous bone experiments and cortical bone experiments, respectively. In the cancellous bone experiment, the slices were randomly divided into three groups, corresponding to different feed rates of 0.8 mm/s, 1.6 mm/s, and 2.4 mm/s, respectively, with 10 slices in each group. The cancellous part of each slice was drilled 9 times with different output powers from 20% (48 W) to 100% (120 W). In the cortical bone experiment, the slices were randomly assigned into two groups, corresponding to a different feed rate (0.8 mm/s and 1.6 mm/s). Drilling was performed on the cortical part of each slice 4 times with different output power, which increased from 70% (84W) to 100% (120 W). All experiments were conducted at room temperature of 25 ℃. Maximum temperature and penetration time were recorded. The maximum grinding temperature and penetration time of cancellous bone and cortical bone under different output power and feed rate were compared. Results: At the same feed rate, the maximum temperature of the cancellous bone decreased as output power increased. There were statistically significant differences in the maximum temperature between the output powers of 120 W and 24 W under different feed rates(61.2 ℃±9.4 ℃ vs 70.9 ℃±5.7 ℃, 59.2 ℃±7.1 ℃ vs 69.5 ℃±10.7 ℃, 55.5 ℃±5.5 ℃ vs 69.2 ℃±9.3 ℃, all P<0.05). At the premise of the same output power, there was no significant difference in the maximum temperature among different feed rates (all P>0.05). At the feed rate of 0.8 mm/s, the maximum temperature of cortical bone decreased as the output power increased. The maximum temperature at the output power of 120 W was significantly lower than that of 84 W (P=0.048). However, at the feed rate of 1.6 mm/s, the maximum temperature could not be significantly lowered by the increase in output power (P>0.05). Under the same output power, the maximum temperature at the feed rate of 1.6 mm/s were all significantly lower than those of 0.8 mm/s (all P<0.05). The penetration time of cancellous bone did not decrease significantly with the increase in the output power (all P>0.05) while it decreased significantly as the feed rate increased (all P<0.05). Regarding cortical bone at the feed rate of 0.8 mm/s, the increase in output power could not shorten the penetration time (P>0.05); at the feed rate of 1.6 mm/s, the penetration time at the output power of 120 W was significantly shorter than that of 96 W (P=0.008). With the same output power, the penetration time at the feed rate of 1.6 mm/s were significantly shorter than those at 0.8 mm/s (all P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in the penetration failure rate among different feed rates with the same output power (all P>0.05). The penetration failure rate was 0 when the output power of cancellous bone was 48 W and above and the output power of cortical bone were 108 W and 120 W. Conclusions: The maximum temperature of vertebral cancellous bone and the cortical bone is primarily influenced by the output power and the feed rate, respectively; the penetration time of cancellous bone and the cortical bone is affected by the feed rate and both of feed rate and output power, respectively. The most suitable parameters are output power of 120 W and feed rate of 2.4 mm/s for cancellous bone and output power of 120 W and feed rate of 1.6 mm/s for cortical bone.

Abstract
Excessive autophagy-induced follicular atresia of ovarian granulosa cells might be one of the pathogenesis of Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI), and melatonin (MT) exerted many beneficial effects on mitochondria. However, there was little report regarding the beneficial effects of MT on excessive autophagy-induced mitochondrial and ovarian reserve function deficiency, and the mechanisms have not been clearly identified. Autophagy played a protective role in cells survival, however, high level of autophagy could lead to cell death. In this report, firstly, Chinese hamster ovary cell damage model stably expressing EGFP-LC3 was established. Next, we systematically investigated the protective effects of MT on mitochondrial and ovarian reserve function and molecular mechanisms using this cell damage model. Our results revealed that 10-9 M MT not only protected against the decline of anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) expression induced by excessive autophagy, but also rescued excessive autophagy-induced impairment of mitochondrial expression and mitochondrial membrane potential. Furthermore, MT protected against excessive autophagy-induced decrease of nucleus-encoded proteins including SDHA and mitofilin, and mitochondrial dynamic-related proteins including OPA1, MFN2, and DRP1. MT also decreased mitochondrial oxidative stress, increased antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) expression and ameliorated the G2/M cell cycle arrest induced by excessive autophagy. Finally, MT inhibited excessive autophagy-induced activation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway. In conclusion, our study showed that MT rescued impairment of mitochondrial and ovarian reserve function, and production of mitochondrial ROS and cell cycle arrest induced by excessive autophagy through down-regulated ERK pathway, implying the potential therapeutic drug target for POI.

Methods: Ten subjects (5 males and 5 females) diagnosed with UCAA with an average age of 8.3 years old (ranged from 5 to 15) were included in Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from January to August 2019. The free sound field hearing threshold, word recognition score in quiet, speech reception threshold in noise and sound localization ability (results were measured by RMS error) tests were performed in unaided and aided situation, respectively. Subjective satisfaction questionnaires were also distributed to subjects. Paired t test and Wilcoxon signed rank test were used as statistical analysis methods. Results: The average hearing threshold in aided condition was improved by (21.9±4.4) dB (t=15.8,P<0.05). Speech recognition abilities were generally improved both under quiet and noise (P<0.05);however, when the binaural summation, squelch and head shadow effects were analyzed respectively, the binaural squelch effect was not statistically improved (P>0.05), while the other effects were improved in aided condition (P<0.05). In sound localization test, there was no significant difference of the RMS error value between the unaided and aided situation (P>0.05). The subjects got high satisfaction rates in three subjective questionnaires. Conclusion: The adhesive bone conduction hearing aid can provide significant audiological benefit for children with UCAA as well as raising the quality of their life.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the classification and clinical treatment experience of cervical massive hemorrhage in multiple centers. Methods: From April 2012 to October 2020, clinical data of 42 patients with cervical massive hemorrhage were retrospectively analyzed, including 27 cases from Shanghai Changzheng Hospital, 7 cases from Hunan Provincial People's Hospital, 4 cases from Longkou People's Hospital and 4 cases from Laizhou People's Hospital. According to bleeding position (P), bleeding vessel (V), cerebral blood supply (C), and the presence or absence of associated injury (A), 42 patients were classified as "PVCA", and summarize the methods of pre-hospital emergency and in-hospital treatment based on the "ABC" treatment principles: airway rebuild (A), effective arterial hemostasis and bleeding stop (B), and cerebral blood flow reconstruction within the time window (C). Results: Within the 42 cases of cervical massive hemorrhage, there were 3 cases of type P1 (below cricoid cartilage), 28 cases of type P2 (cricoid cartilage-mandibular angle), 11 cases of type P3 (mandibular angle-skull base); 22 cases of type V1 (arterial hemorrhage), 11 cases of type V2 (main venous hemorrhage), 7 cases of type V3 (simple superficial vein or small artery hemorrhage), 2 cases of type V4 (mixed arteriovenous hemorrhage); 5 cases of type C0 (no symptoms of cerebral ischemia and neurological dysfunction), 33 cases of type C1 (transient cerebral ischemia without sensory disturbance), 4 cases of type C2 (symptoms of cerebral ischemia and neurological dysfunction); 39 cases of type A0 (no other system damage was involved) and 3 cases of type A1 (combined with other system damage). All 42 patients received operations, 25 patients received open surgery of vascular reconstruction+hematoma/foreign body removal (7 cases of vascular ligation, 14 cases of direct suture repair, 4 cases of vascular interposition), 17 patients received hybrid surgery (carotid angiography+covered stent repair+hematoma/foreign body removal). The surgical technique success rate the was 100%. All the hemorrhagic shock was corrected, hematoma compression was relieved, and the symptoms of cephalic ischemia were improved. There were 4 cases of local cranial nerve injury, 1 case of incision hematoma and 6 cases of postoperative hyper perfusion. During the average 14.3 months follow-up, there was no operation related myocardial infarction, stroke or death, no re-rupture or re-dissection, and 50% asymptomatic restenosis was found in 1 case one year after received covered stent endovascular repair. Conclusion: Based on the "PVCA" classification and "ABC" treatment principle, it is safe and effective to rescue cervical massive hemorrhage.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of long non-coding RNA HOTAIR (LncRNA HOTAIR) on the proliferation, apoptosis and drug resistance of Wilms tumor cells and its molecular mechanism. Methods: Collected nephroblastoma tissues and normal tumor side tissues in 32 children with renal syblastoma surgical treatment at Zhengzhou University Children's Hospital from 2015 to 2019. Real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, (qRT-PCR)was used to detect the expression of HOTAIR in Wilms tumor tissues and adjacent tissues. Small interfering RNA technology was used to delete the expression of HOTAIR in Wilms tumor cell SK-NEP-1. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8)was used to detect cell proliferation after transfection. Flow cytometry and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) staining to detect the apoptosis. Western blot was used to detect the expression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway related proteins.CCK-8 was used to detect the proliferation inhibition of cells treated with different concentrations of cisplatin after transfection. Results: Compared with adjacent tissues, HOTAIR was highly expressed in Wilms tumor tissues (P<0.05). The expression levels of Wnt, β-catenin, Cyclin D1, c-myc in the control group were (0.89±0.08), (0.94±0.10), (0.72±0.06), (1.10±0.11), and (1.06±0.11), (0.92±0.08), (0.66±0.07), (1.25±0.11) of the si-RNA group, while (0.54±0.05), (0.41±0.05), (0.25±0.03), (0.56±0.06) of the si-HOTAIR group. The expression levels of these protein were significantly down-regulated in the si-HOTAIR group when compared with the control group and the si-RNA group (P<0.05). The absorbance (A) values of SK-NEP-1 cells in the si-HOTAIR group at 24, 48 and 72 hours after transfection were (0.31±0.02), (0.37±0.04), (0.69±0.07), significantly lower than (0.49±0.05), (0.78±0.08), (1.22±0.14) in the control group and (0.57±0.06), (0.68±0.07), (0.94±0.09) in the si-RNA group (P<0.05). The apoptosis rate in the si-HOTAIR group was (13.81±1.25)%, significantly higher than (6.54±0.72)% in the control group and (4.35±0.40)% in the si-RNA group (P<0.05). The cell positive rate of TUNEL cells in the si-HOTAIR group was (35.14±3.50)%, significantly higher than (20.16±2.18)% in the control group and (21.09±2.35)% in the si-RNA group (P<0.05). The median inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) of the si-HOTAIR group was (62.48±5.97) μmol/L, significantly lower than (88.27±9.05) μmol/L of the control group and (92.50±9.11) μmol/L of the si-RNA group (P<0.05). Conclusions: Suppression of LncRNA HOTAIR can inhibit the proliferation of Wilms tumor cells, promote cell apoptosis, decrease cell resistance to cisplatin. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activation.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Excessive consumption of fructose, the sweetest of all naturally occurring carbohydrates, has been linked to worldwide epidemics of metabolic diseases in humans, and it is considered an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. We provide an overview about the features of fructose metabolism, as well as potential mechanisms by which excessive fructose intake is associated with the pathogenesis of metabolic diseases both in humans and rodents. To accomplish this aim, we focus on illuminating the cellular and molecular mechanisms of fructose metabolism as well as its signaling effects on metabolic and cardiovascular homeostasis in health and disease, highlighting the role of carbohydrate-responsive element-binding protein in regulating fructose metabolism.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the survival and prognosis of B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) patients with TP53 mutation. Methods: The clinical data of 479 newly diagnosed B-ALL patients treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2016 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Among 479 B-ALL patients, 34 cases (7.1%) were positive for TP53 gene mutation, and a total of 36 TP53 mutations were detected, including 10 frameshift gene mutations (27.8%) , 23 missense mutations (63.9%) and 3 nonsense mutations (8.3%) . A total of 34 (94.4%) mutations were located in the DNA binding domain (exons 5-8) .The average number of mutated genes in patients with TP53 gene mutation (2.3) and the group without TP53 gene mutation (1.1) were statistically different (P<0.001) . The proportion of Ph positive and Ph-like positive patients in the TP53 gene mutation negative group was significantly higher than that of the TP53 mutation positive group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.001) . The 3-year OS and EFS rates of the TP53 gene mutation negative group were significantly higher than those of the TP53 gene mutation positive group. The differences in OS and EFS rates between the two groups were statistically significant (χ(2)= 4.694, P = 0.030; χ(2)= 5.080, P= 0.024) . In the multivariate analysis, failure to achieve remission (CR) after one course of induction chemotherapy was an independent adverse prognostic factor affecting OS.Of the 34 patients with TP53 mutation, 16 underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in the CR(1) state, and 2 patients with recurrence after transplantation obtained CR(2) after infusion of donor-derived anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells. Among the 11 patients with TP53 gene mutation who relapsed during consolidation chemotherapy, 6 received anti-CD19 CAR T cell therapy, 4 patients achieved remission and minimal residual disease (MRD) turned negative, followed by bridging allo-HSCT, and 2 of them sustained CR. Conclusion: Missense mutations are the most common in B-ALL patients with TP53 gene mutation, and the majority of mutations were located in the DNA binding domain. B-ALL patients with TP53 gene mutation should undergo allo-HSCT as soon as possible after CAR-T cell therapy has cleared the MRD after recurrence. B-ALL patients with TP53 gene mutation still have a higher recurrence rate after allo-HSCT, and the infusion of donor-derived CAR-T cells can achieve better sustained remission.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the predictive value of myoglobin (Mb) for the prognosis of sepsis related chronic critical illness (CCI). Methods: Retrospective study was conducted on septic patients with the length of ICU stay equal or greater than 14 days, and sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SOFA) score equal or greater than 2 on the 14th day in ICU in the First Department of Critical Care Medicine at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2017 to March 2020. Patients' clinical and laboratory data were collected on the 1st and 14th day in ICU. The survival on day 28 in ICU was recorded. According to the myoglobin levels on day 1 and day 14, all subjects were divided into myoglobin elevation group and decline group. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to compare the cumulative survival rate at day 28. Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors of mortality. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the prognostic value of myoglobin. Results: A total of 131 patients with sepsis related CCI were recruited, including 58 patients in the elevation group and 73 in the decline group. The Mb level in elevation group on day 1 was significantly lower than that in decline group [172.40(59.99, 430.53) μg/L vs. 413.60(184.40, 1 328.50) μg/L, Z=3.749, P=0.000], and the Mb level on day 14 was the opposite change in two groups [483.65(230.38, 1 471.75)μg/L in elevation group vs. 132.20(76.86, 274.35)μg/L in decline group, Z=5.595, P=0.000]. Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the 28-day cumulative survival rate of the elevation group was significantly lower than that of decline group (χ²=7.051, P=0.008). Cox ratio regression analysis suggested that elevated myoglobin was an independent risk factor for 28-day mortality in septic patients with CCI (OR=2.534, 95%CI 1.212-5.295, P=0.013). ROC curve analysis suggested that the sensitivity of myoglobin elevation in predicting mortality related to CCI within 28 days was 64.5%, and the specificity was 32.0% with area under the curve(AUC) 0.661(95%CI 0.550-0.773,P=0.007) and Jorden Index was 0.325. Conclusion: Elevated myoglobin, an independent risk factor for mortality within 28 days in ICU, can predict the prognosis of sepsis related chronic critical illness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients are at higher risk of suffering from psychological distress and reduced health-related quality of life (HRQoL) after oesophageal cancer surgery. This Swedish nationwide population-based longitudinal study aimed to evaluate the association between psychological distress and HRQoL up to 2 years after oesophageal cancer surgery. METHODS The study included patients with oesophageal cancer who had survived for 1 year after oesophageal cancer surgery. The exposure was psychological distress measured using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Patients scoring at least 8 on either the anxiety or the depression subscale were classified as having psychological distress. The outcome was HRQoL assessed by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire generic and disease-specific questionnaires (EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-OG25). Exposure and outcome were measured at 1, 1.5, and 2 years after operation. Fixed-effects models with adjustment for all time-invariant confounding and potential time-varying confounders were used to examine the mean score difference in HRQoL between patients with and without psychological distress. RESULTS In total, 180 patients were analysed. Clinically relevant, statistically significant and time-constant mean score differences were found in emotional function, social function, dyspnoea, anxiety, eating difficulty, eating in front of others, and weight loss (mean score difference range 10-29). Mean score differences for global quality of life, cognitive function, appetite loss, EORTC QLQ-C30 summary score, and trouble with taste increased over time, and reached clinical and statistical significance at 1.5 and/or 2 years after surgery. For body image, there was a clinically relevant decrease in mean score difference over time. CONCLUSION Psychological distress was associated with several aspects of poor HRQoL up to 2 years after surgery for oesophageal cancer.

Abstract
AIMS This study evaluated the effects of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens TL106, isolated from Tibetan pigs' faeces, on the growth performance, immune response, intestinal barrier function, morphology of jejunum, caecum and colon, and gut microbiota in the mice with enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC)-induced intestinal diseases. METHODS AND RESULTS In all, 40 female C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into four groups: mice fed a normal diet (Control), mice oral administration of TL106 daily (Ba), mice challenged with EHEC O157:H7 on day 15 (O157) and mice oral administration of TL106 daily and challenged with EHEC O157:H7 on day 15 (Ba+O157). The TL106 was administrated to mice for 14 days, and mice were infected with O157:H7 at day 15. We found that TL106 could prevent the weight loss caused by O157:H7 infection and alleviated the associated increase in pro-inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-8) and decrease in anti-inflammatory factor (IL-10) in serum and intestinal tissues of mice caused by O157:H7 infection (P < 0·05). Additionally, TL106 could prevent disruption of gut morphology caused by O157:H7 infection, and alleviate the associated decrease in expression of tight junction proteins (ZO-1, occludin and claudin-1) in jejunum and colon (P < 0·05). In caecum and colon, the alpha diversity for bacterial community analysis of Chao and ACE index in Ba+O157 group were higher than O157 group. The TL106 stabilized gut microbiota disturbed by O157:H7, including increasing Lachnospiraceae, Prevotellaceae, Muribaculaceae and Akkermansiaceae, and reducing Lactobacillaceae. CONCLUSIONS We indicated the B. amyloliquefaciens TL106 can effectively protect mice against EHEC O157:H7 infection by relieving inflammation, improving intestinal barrier function, mitigating permeability disruption and stabilizing the gut microbiota. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Bacillus amyloliquefaciens TL106 can prevent and treat intestinal disease induced by EHEC O157:H7 in mice, which may be a promising probiotic for disease prevention in animals.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the types and treatment methods of easily-missed, misdiagnosed intestinal obstruction after radical radiotherapy of cervical cancer. Methods: The clinical data of 21 patients with intestinal obstruction after radical radiotherapy of cervical cancer in our hospital from May 2013 to May 2019 were collected, including the radiation dose, obstruction symptoms, surgical methods and treatment outcomes. The types and treatment methods of intestinal obstruction after radical radiotherapy of cervical cancer were further investigated. Results: The intestinal obstruction occurred in 21 patients with cervical cancer after radical radiotherapy. All patients were initially diagnosed as rectal obstruction and underwent the transverse colostomy. The obstruction symptoms were successfully resolved in 15 patients while failed in other 6 patients who then underwent the re-operation. Four patients with rectal obstruction accompanied by middle or terminal ileum obstruction underwent ileostomy, the other 2 patients with terminal ileum obstruction underwent the transverse ileal anastomosis and partial intestines exclusion surgery. All of the obstruction symptoms were alleviated. Conclusions: Rectal is the major obstruction site of the cervical cancer patients with intestinal obstruction after radical radiotherapy. However, a possibility of obstruction at the middle or end of the ileum also exists. Therefore, it is very important to avoid misdiagnosis and conduct appropriate operative treatment according to the obstruction site.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the incidence of eating problems and risk factors in children aged 1-6 years, and provide evidence for formulating relevant prevention and control strategies. Methods: From June to December 2019, two community health service centers and two kindergartens were randomly selected in Shunyi district of Beijing by using stratified random cluster sampling method. Self-designed questionnaires were used to collect data on individual information, family information, and the incidence of eating problems and related factors. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify related factors. Results: A total of 2 391 valid questionnaires were returned, the analysis result indicated that 1 432 children had at least one eating behavior problem, the incidence rate was 59.9%. The most common eating problem was inattention while eating (48.8%), followed by irregular eating position (14.0%), picky eaters (13.0%), excessive eating time (11.2%), excessive snacks intake (9.0%), and soup with rice (4.6%). The mother's education level, family income level, main caregivers and family members' attitudes toward child's eating were related factors for eating behavior problems in children. Mothers with high education level (OR=0.528, 95%CI: 0.431-0.647) and family with high income level (OR=0.656, 95%CI: 0.473- 0.909) were the protective factors for child's poor eating behaviors. Grandparent caring (OR=1.366, 95%CI: 1.151-1.622), coaxing or forcing child to eat (OR=1.581, 95%CI: 1.284-1.947) were the risk factors for child's poor eating behavior. Conclusion: The incidence of eating problems was high in children aged 1-6 years. It is necessary to strengthen the intervention in families with low-income and low-education levels and children raised by grandparents to reduce the incidence of poor eating behaviors in children.

Abstract
A group of Ti-25Nb-xMn-ySn (in wt%; x = 2, 4 and y = 1, 5) alloys were designed using the "BF-d-electron superelasticity" empirical relationship and subsequently were cast in order to investigate their microstructure, deformation and superelastic behaviors. Monolithic β phase is found in all investigated alloys except in Ti-25Nb-2Mn-1Sn alloy which exhibits α"+β dual-phase microstructure. During compression testing, the Ti-25Nb-2Mn-1Sn alloy fails and demonstrates sufficient plasticity of ~ 41% and ultimate compressive strength of ~ 1800 MPa, where other alloys do not fail within the load capacity of 100 kN. Among all the investigated alloys, Ti-25Nb-4Mn-1Sn alloy exhibits the highest yield strength (~ 710 MPa) while Ti-25Nb-2Mn-1Sn alloy possesses the highest hardness (~ 244 HV). In this work, yield strength is influenced by solid solution and grain boundary strengthening while hardness is affected by the amount of constituent phases in each alloy. Additionally, Ti-25Nb-4Mn-1Sn shows highest recoverable strain (2.35%) and superelastic recovery ratio (90%) during cyclic loading-unloading up to 3% strain level, with highest total energy absorption among the investigated alloys. Moreover, all the Ti-25Nb-xMn-ySn alloys display shear bands except that Ti-25Nb-2Mn-1Sn alloy displays shear bands together with some cracks on the outer surface of compressively deformed morphologies.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of the severe or critically ill patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19), and evaluate the impact of complicated myocardial injury on the prognosis of these patients. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in 54 patients who admitted to Tongji hospital from February 3, 2020 to February 24, 2020 and met the criteria of severe or critical conditions of COVID-19. The clinical characteristics and hospital mortality rate were analyzed and compared between the patients with or without myocardial injury, which was defined with 3 times higher serum cardiac troponin value. Results: The age of the 54 patients was 68.0(59.8, 74.3) years. Among all the patients, 24 (44.4%) patients were complicated with hypertension, 13 (24.1%) with diabetes, 8 (14.8%) with coronary heart disease, and 3 (5.6%) with previous cerebral infarction. During hospitalization, 24 (44.4%) of the patients were complicated with myocardial injury and 26 (48.1%) patients died in hospital. In-hospital mortality was significantly higher in patients with myocardial injury than in patients without myocardial injury (14 (60.9%) vs. 8 (25.8%), P=0.013). Moreover, the levels of C-reactive protein (153.6 (80.3, 240.7) ng/L vs. 49.8 (15.9, 101.9) ng/L) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (852.0 (400.0, 2 315.3) ng/L vs. 197.0 (115.3, 631.0) ng/L) were significantly higher than patients without myocardial injury (all P<0.01). Conclusions: Prevalence of myocardial injury is high among severe or critically ill COVID-19 patients. Severe or critically ill COVID-19 patients with myocardial injury face a significantly higher risk of in-hospital mortality. The study suggests that it is important to monitor and manage the myocardial injury during hospitalization for severe or critically ill COVID-19 patients.

Abstract
Reports a case of diabetic foot patient with right toe pain, ulceration for 4 years and aggravation for 1 month. After rigorous medical treatment and related examinations, transeversal bone transfer of tibia was proposed. However, the skin condition on the inner side of the lower leg was not good before the operation, so the transversal bone removal of the fibula was performed. Two segments of the lateral fibula were osteotomized with miniature osteotomies. The two osteotomy lines were about 10 cm apart. The distal osteotomy line is about 10 cm from the tip of the lateral malleolus. On the 8th day after the surgery, the bone was moved every 6 hours and was extended inwards by 1 mm every day. After 14 days, the bone was moved back for another 14 days. Skin temperature from preoperative to postoperative, ankle brachial index, CT angiography, CT value, visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain and wound healing were evaluated by comparison. The wound was completely healed 28 days after the operation.

Abstract
The rapid spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global threat. But the pathogenesis and treatment of the disease are not clear yet. Virological researches revealed close relationship between 2019-nCoV and SARS-CoV. The experience and knowledge we gained from severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), especially with regard to the time course of viral replication, host immune response and clinical progression of the patient, may provide important insights into understanding and management of COVID-19. Clinical deterioration accompanied by decreasing viral load in the second week after symptom onset was noted both in SARS and COVID-19, suggesting that the lung damage at this phase is more related to excessive host immune response rather than uncontrolled viral replication.

Abstract
Nuclear protein-1 (NUPR1), also named as p8 or Com1, has been since found overexpressed in several human malignant tumor cells, such as glioma. NUPR1 also regulates cell cycle progression, however, the role of NUPR1 in regulating glioma cell cycle remains poorly understood. Knockdown efficiency of U87 and U251 cells infected with the lentiviral vector was detected by quantitative real-time PCR and western blot in vitro and in vivo. Flow cytometry and western blot were used to explore a mechanism by which NUPR1 modulates cell cycle in U87 and U251 cells. Immunohistochemistry was applied to detect expression levels of P27, CDK2, and cyclin E in human glioma tissues with NUPR1 positive expression and tumorigenesis in nude mice. We confirmed that the downregulation of NUPR1 arrested the cell cycle in the G0/G1 phase in U87 and U251 cells in vitro. Furthermore, the expression level of P27 was increased, and CDK2 and cyclin E were decreased upon silencing NUPR1 expression in vitro and in vivo. In conclusion, the knockdown of NUPR1 induces cell cycle arrest in the G0/G1 phase in glioma cells via P27.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the clinical value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in predicting anastomotic leak of postoperative rectal cancer patients. Methods: The clinical data of 787 rectal cancer patients who underwent anterior resection from January 2014 to December 2017 in Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Zhengzhou University were collected. The postoperative numbers of white blood cell (WBS) on postoperative day (POD)1, 3 and 5 were detected, and the NLR was calculated. The relationship of NLR and the incidence of anastomotic leak was analyzed, and the area under the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curves was calculated. The accuracy of postoperative NLR in predicting the incidence of anastomotic leak was evaluated. Results: WBC counts of patients with leak on POD1, POD3 and POD5 were 13.2×10(9)/L, 9.1×10(9)/L and 8.9×10(9)/L, respectively, while those of patients without leak were 12.9×10(9)/L, 9.0×10(9)/L and 8.8×10(9)/L. The WBC count was not significantly different between patients with or without leak (P>0.05). The average NLR values of patients with or without leak were 13.3 and 11.6 on POD1, 10.9 and 7.6 on POD3, 9.3 and 5.3 on POD5, respectively. The NLR values of patients with leak on POD3 and POD5 were significantly higher than those of patients without leak (P<0.05). The cutoff value of NLR on POD3 was 8.6, the sensitivity and specificity of detecting the leakage was 73.2% and 75.6%, respectively, and the area under curve (AUC) was 0.744. The cutoff value of NLR on POD5 was 5.5, the sensitivity and specificity was 69.6% and 75.5%, the AUC was 0.726. The multivariate analysis result showed that NLR >8.6 was an independent factor for anastomotic leak prediction. Conclusion: Postoperative NLR on day 3 is useful in predicting anastomotic leak and can decrease the incidence of complication in rectal cancer patients who underwent anterior resection.

Abstract
Vitamin E (VE) has proven to function as potent lipid-soluble antioxidant, a signaling molecule, and a regulator of the immune system. The objective of the study was to assess the protective effect of VE on laying performance, antioxidant capacity, and immunity in laying hens exposed to Salmonella Enteritidis (SE). A total of 80 32-week-old salmonella-free double negative Hy-Line brown laying hens were randomly assigned to 4 treatments with 20 replicates each (1 bird per replicate) according to a 2 × 2 factorial design with 2 VE supplementation levels [0 IU/kg (VE0) vs. 30 IU/kg (VE30)], and 2 challenge treatments [SE vs. physiological saline solution (PS)]. During the last 3 D of week 43 of age, birds were orally challenged with 1.0 mL suspension of 109 cfu/mL S. Enteritidis daily, whereas the birds of negative treatments (VE0) received the same volume of PS. The egg mass of VE0 treatment decreased (P < 0.05) in contrast to VE treatment after challenge. The serum concentrations of interleukins (IL-1β and IL-6) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels of SE treatments increased (P < 0.05) at week 44 and week 46, respectively. In both VE30 treatments, the decrease (P < 0.05) in birds' mortality was associated with higher IgA, IgG, IgM concentrations at week 44, and higher IgA, IgM concentrations at week 46. There is an interaction (P < 0.05) between SE challenge and VE levels with regard to feed conversion, daily egg mass, and serum MDA, IgA, and IgM levels. It can be concluded that supplemental VE (30 IU/kg) in diets for laying hens may alleviate oxidative and immune stress due to SE challenge.

Abstract
AIMS In order to probe a more environmentally friendly method of pollutant treatment based on microbial bioaugmentation and quorum sensing (QS) effects. METHODS AND RESULTS The dynamic characteristics and QS effects of the acylated homoserine lactones (AHLs)-secreting strain Aeromonas sp. A-L2 (A-L2), which was isolated from the activated sludge system, was discussed. According to the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry results, N-butyryl-homoserine lactone (C4-HSL) and N-hexanoyl-homoserine lactone (C6-HSL) were the major AHLs secreted by strain A-L2, and the swarming of strain Ochrobactrum sp. LC-1 (LC-1) was induced by these compounds. The extracellular polymeric substance secretion of the strain LC-1 was mainly led by C6-HSL, and the biofilm formation ability was mainly influenced by C6-HSL or C4-HSL (60 μg l-1 ). The optimal AHLs secretion conditions of strain A-L2 were also studied. Drawing support from the AHLs-secreting strain A-L2 during quinoline degradation by strain LC-1, the degradation time was greatly shortened. CONCLUSIONS Hence, AHLs-secreting strain A-L2 can be useful as an AHLs continuous supplier during bioaugmentation and pollutant biodegradation. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The bioaugmentation process of strain A-L2 on quinoline biodegradation based on QS effects would lay a certain theoretical and practical significance for large-scale applications.

Abstract
Objective: To establish a New Zealand rabbit animal model of laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) using esophageal balloon together with metal internal stent dilation and to investigate the changes of mucosa. Methods: 20 New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 10 in each group. Balloon dilatation and metal internal stent dilation were carried out in experimental group to reproduce the animal model of LPRD.The middle of balloon was placed at the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) while the stent was placed at the upper esophageal sphincter (UES). The guide wire was placed in the control group, but the balloon was not expanded and the stent was not placed. The general condition, pH value of hypopharynx, laryngeal histopathology and changes of pepsin content of New Zealand rabbits were observed regularly. The difference between experimental group and control group was compared. Results: The 24-hour Dx-pH monitoring results showed that the number of reflux episodes(20.0[9.5, 35.0], 13.0[6.5, 22.0]), and the percent time below pH 5.5 (1.36%[0.60%, 4.57%], 1.36%[0.43%, 2.77%]) in the experimental group at the 2nd and 4th week were significantly different from those in the control group (0[0,3.0], 1.0[0.5, 3.8]; 0[0, 0.01%], 0[0, 0], respectively, all P<0.01), suggesting that the experimental group New Zealand rabbits developed LPRD. Compared with the control group under microscope, lymphocytes infiltration and submucosal gland hyperplasia increased in the mucosa of the throat of the experimental group. The results of pepsin immunohistochemical staining between the two groups were statistically significant (P=0.014). Conclusion: The use of balloon dilatation of the LES combined with metal stent dilatation of the UES can successfully establish a laryngopharyngeal reflux model, and lesions in the throat tissue can be observed.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the mid-term outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with left radial artery (RA) graft bypassed to right main coronary artery (RCA) of severe stenosis. Methods: Between September 2014 and April 2019, a total of consecutive 47 patients who had severe stenosis (≥90%) of RCA underwent total arterial revascularization, with left RA bypassed to RCA. There were 31 males and 16 females, with a mean age of (56.5±9.7) years old. The perioperative outcomes were observed and mid-term results were followed up. Results: A total of 46 left internal mammary artery (LIMA) grafts, 47 left radial artery (LRA), and 40 right RA grafts (RRA) were harvested with pedicles. LIMA was bypassed to LAD in 43 patients, RRA was to diagonal branches, ramus or oblique marginal in 37 cases, and LRA was to RCA. All grafts (except 3 composite Y or T grafts) were single. Mean graft number was 2-4 (2.7±0.9). There was one death due to cardiac tamponade. Three patients had postoperative atrial fibrillation, 1 had a forearm hematoma, 1 had acute renal insufficiency, and 2 had acute myocardial infarction. The mean tracheal intubation duration was 3.5-20.3 (8.3±4.7) hours, and the mean hospital stay was 6-13 (7.1±2.9) days. The average follow-up was 3-47 (23.3±7.5) months, with a follow-up rate of 86.96% (40/46). There were no major cardiovascular events during the follow-up. Three month after surgery, the mean left ventricular ejection fraction was significantly improved than that of pre-operation (60.0%±4.0% vs 42.4%±7.5%, P=0.003). Computed tomography angiography (CTA) examination showed that 58.7% (27/46) of patients had patent LRA after a mean follow-up duration of (19.5±7.3) months. Conclusion: CABG with LRA bypassed to RCA of severe stenosis proves to be safe and effective, with good mid-term outcomes.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the influence of five-in-one management mode(standardized asthma treatment, asthma diary, peak expiratory flow (PEF) monitoring, reasonable diet and physical exercise) on disease prevention and control of school children with asthma. Methods: From April to October 2018, 70 children with asthma in clinical remission were selected from Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University using randomized controlled study design. These children were randomly divided into study group and control group, with 35 cases in each group. In the study group, 5 cases were lost to follow-up, and 30 cases were actually enrolled. In the control group, 6 cases were lost to follow-up, and 29 cases were actually enrolled. Children in the control group received routine medication and regular outpatient consultation, and children in the study group received the five-in-one asthma management model. In the first time of seeing a doctor, after 3 months and 6 months of follow-up, asthma control test score, medication compliance index score and lung function index (forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), PEF were evaluated respectively.Parental satisfaction, asthma acute episodes, weight, height and biochemical index were recorded during the 6 months of follow-up. Pulmonary function index, asthma control score and body mass index of overweight children with asthma were compared with t-test, medication compliance was compared with chi-square test, and the rank sum test was used for the comparison of the number of emergency visits of asthma attacks and parents' satisfaction. Results: A total of 59 children with asthma were included, among them 30 were in the study group (8.1±1.5) years old and 29 in the control group (9.2±1.1) years old. After 3 months of follow-up, FEV1, PEF, asthma control score in the study group were (86.3±1.5)%, (83.3±2.4)%, (24.7±2.6) points respectively; and in the control group, FEV1, PEF, asthma control score were (84.4±2.5)%, (82.2±1.9)%, (21.1±1.3) points respectively. The indicators in the study group were higher than those in the control group (t=3.62, 1.97, 6.64, P<0.05). After 6 months of follow-up, FEV1, PEF, asthma control score in the study group were (88.4±2.3)%, (85.4±2.2)%, (26.8±1.8) points respectively; and in the control group, FEV1, PEF, asthma control score were (85.5±1.9)%, (83.2±1.7)%, (22.5±1.4) points respectively. The indicators in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group (t=5.34, 4.24, 10.41, P<0.05). During the 6-month follow up, the number of emergency visits of asthma attacks in the study group and in the control group were 0.42(0.36, 0.51) and 0.92(0.72, 1.27) respectively. The indicator in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group (Z=3.21, P<0.05). After 3 months of follow-up, the proportions of children with good compliance in the study group and control group were 67% (20/30) and 62% (18/29), the proportions of poor compliance were 27% (8/30) and 34% (10/29), the proportions of non-compliance were 7% (2/30) and 7% (2/29). There were no statistically significant differences (χ(2)=0.14, 0.43, 0.00, P=0.71, 0.51, 0.97). After 6 months of follow-up, the proportions of children with good compliance in the study group and control group were 87% (26/30) and 69% (20/29), the proportion of poor compliance were 10% (3/30) and 28% (8/29), the proportion of non-compliance were 3% (1/30) and 7% (2/29), There were no statistically significant differences (χ(2)=2.70, 3.00, 0.39, P=0.10, 0.08, 0.53). After 6 months of follow-up, the number of great satisfaction, satisfaction and dissatisfaction in the study group were 20, 10 and 0 respectively, the satisfaction rate was 100%, meanwhile those indicators in the control group were 4, 15 and 10 respectively, the satisfaction rate was 66%, The indicator in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (Z=4.60, P<0.05). Conclusions: The application of "five-in-one" asthma management model (standardized asthma treatment, asthma diary, PEF monitoring, reasonable diet and physical exercise) for school-age children with asthma can significantly improve lung function, as well as reduce the number of acute asthma attacks. It has a high parent satisfaction, therefore it should be recommended for clinical implementation.

Abstract
The Ising-like antiferromagnet α-CoV2O6 has received considerable interests because of stabilized 1/3 magnetization plateau around 5 K under magnetic field applied along magnetic easy c-axis. In this work, this magnetization plateau was studied by varying temperature or rotating magnetic field. As temperature decreased, this stabilized plateau collapsed, and additional magnetic transitions were observed. As a result, a rich magnetic phase diagram was constructed and extended to temperature lower than previously reported. When magnetic field moved from the c to b (or a) axis, the magnetization plateau developed with field directions and vanished finally when the field was restricted in the ab plane. An impressive observation is that this 1/3-plateau can be stabilized and remain robust even when magnetic field deviated from the c axis, accompanied by the evolutions of the magnetic moments and the critical transition fields. We suppose that the origins of these temperature and angular dependences of the 1/3 magnetization plateau are related to strong spin-orbital coupling. Indeed, electron spin resonance (ESR) measurement gives large Landé factor of 8.9, evidencing that there exists strong spin-orbital coupling.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the predictive values of the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE.II) score and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) score on death in patients with heat stroke. Methods: A total of 76 patients with heat stroke who were treated in Emergency Department of Harrison International Peace Hospital from June 2013 to September 2017 were studied. According to the outcome of patients, we distributed the patients to death group and survival group. APACHE.II score and DIC score were calculated according to the clinical data and the test results at admission. Evaluate the correlation between the two indicators associated with death. Results: There were 76 patients, with 23 deaths (30.3%) and 53 survivors (69.7%) . The APACHE-II score and DIC score were 26.26±6.48 and 4.00±1.38 in the death group.significantly higher than 20.74±4.17 and 2.28±1.21 in the survival group, and there were significant difference (P< 0.01) . The APACHE. II score was positively correlated with the DIC score, and the higher the score, the higher the mortality rate.Both indicators are significant for the Logitic regression analysis of death (P<0.01) .The sensitivity and specificity of the APACHE.II score were 65.2% and 81.1% in prediction of mortality, The sensitivity and specificity of DIC score were 65.2% and 84.9% in prediction of mortality. The specificity of the APACHE II score plus DIC score were higher than that of single APACHE. II score or DIC score in prediction of mortality (P<0.05) . Conclusion: The APACHE.II score and DIC score are significantly increased in the early stage of the patients with heat stroke, and the APACHE. II score combined with DIC score may improve the value in prediction of mortality with heat stroke.

Abstract
Preoperative radiation therapy has been regarded as the optional neoadjuvant treatment to decrease local recurrence of rectal cancer in addition to surgery. However, its benefit in survival remained obscure. This study was aimed to measure the efficacy of preoperative radiation therapy for survival in stage II and III rectal cancer patients. Retrospective cohort study used the database of Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results program of the National Cancer Institute in the United States from 1988 to 2011. A total of 49439 patients diagnosed with primary rectal cancer who underwent surgery were included. Clinicopathological characteristics and rectal cancer-specific survival between surgery alone group and surgery plus preoperative radiation therapy group were compared. Rectal cancer patients in surgery plus preoperative radiation therapy group had significantly better survival than those in surgery alone group (72.70% vs. 66.61%, P < 0.001), as well as stratified by stages (stage II: 77.4% vs. 74.3%, P < 0.001; stage III: 68.3% vs. 58.6%, P < 0.001). However, this beneficial impact was only observed after 2000s (P < 0.001). Multivariate survival analysis revealed that preoperative radiation therapy was an independent predictor for better survival in stage III (hazard ratio, 0.795; 95% CI, 0.753-0.840; P < 0.001), but not in stage II (P = 0.70). Preoperative radiation therapy might bring a better survival in stage II and III rectal cancer patients, but only as an independent predictor for stage III patients. As time progressed, preoperative radiation therapy might yield more profit for stage II and III rectal cancer patients.

Methods: Clinical data of 68 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy between October 2017 and October 2018 at the Second Department of Biliary Tract Surgery, Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital was retrospectively collected and analyzed.According to the method of pancreaticojejunostomy, the patients were divided into two groups: modified pancreaticojejunostomy group (34 patients) and traditional pancreaticojejunostomy group (34 patients). There were 18 males and 16 females, aged (60.4±9.6) years of modified pancreaticojejunostomy groups; there were 17 males and 18 females, aged (58.9±10.9) years of traditional pancreaticojejunostomy group. The major postoperative complications such as pancreatic fistula were compared between the two groups, and the risk factors of postoperative pancreatic fistula were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: All of the 68 operations were successfully completed. The overall incidence of postoperative complications was 51.5% (35/68). The incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula was 13.2% (9/68), of which all were cases of grade B.There were 16 patients (23.5%) occurred with abdominal infection, and 11 patients (16.2%) occurred with delayed gastric emptying, including 1 case of grade A, 1 case of grade B and 9 cases of grade C.And 9 patients (13.2%) occurred with postoperative bleeding was, including 2 cases of mild bleeding, 5 cases of moderate bleeding, and 2 cases of severe bleeding.Biliary leakage occurred in one patient (1.5%) and chylous leakage occurred in two patients (2.9%). The modified pancreaticojejunostomy could significantly reduce the incidence of postoperative bleeding compared with control group (χ(2)=4.610, P=0.032). And there were no significant differences for other postoperative complications between the two groups (all P>0.05). According to the results of univariate analysis: age, intraoperative bleeding and diameter of pancreatic tube were related factors affecting postoperative pancreatic fistula (P=0.025, 0.019, 0.017, respectively). The results of multivariate analysis showed that intraoperative bleeding>400 ml and diameter of pancreatic tube <3 mm were independent risk factors of pancreatic fistula following pancreaticoduodenectomy (P=0.025, 0.008, respectively). Conclusion: The modified pancreaticojejunostomy is feasible with advantages of reducing postoperative bleeding following pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Abstract
A study was conducted for the examination of bacterial species isolated in dogs from Animal Clinics of Nanjing Agricultural University, China. Forty nasal swabs were taken from dogs having respiratory signs. Staphylococcus pseudintermedius was the most frequently isolated pathogen (37.50 %) followed by Staphylococcus aureus (18.75%), Streptococcus pluranimalium (10.93%), Streptococcus canis (9.37%), Staphylococcus schleiferi (9.37%), Staphylococcus intermedius (6.25%), Staphylococcus cohnii (4.71%) and Staphylococcus hominis (3.12%). S. pseudintermedius and S. pluranimalium were subjected to commonly used antibiotics for determination of resistant drugs. Antimicrobial resistance in S. pseudintermedius was common in gentamicin (70.83%) and tetracycline (50%) while in S. pluranimalium was common in enrofloxacin (71.42%) and gentamicin (57.14%).
