ObjectiveThe risk factors of relapse in 133 epileptic children after withdrawal were analyzed retrospectively and provide reference for clinical withdrawal.MethodsFrom January 2017 to March 2019, 133 children with withdrawal epilepsy were selected as the study object. According to whether there was recurrence during the follow-up period, the children with epilepsy were divided into recurrence group (42 cases) and non recurrence group (91 cases). The gender, age of onset, history of trauma, frequency of seizure before treatment, EEG before drug reduction, imaging, type of medication, family history, time of reaching control, course of disease before treatment, comorbidity, multiple attack types, withdrawal speed and EEG before treatment were observed and compared between the two groups. ResultsThere were significant differences in EEG (χ2 =7.621), medication type (χ2=8.760), time to control (χ2=6.618), course before treatment (χ2=6.435), multiple seizure types (χ2=5.443) and epilepsy comorbidity (χ2=42.795) between the two groups (P < 0.05). The results of Logistic multiple regression analysis showed that the recurrence of epileptic children after drug reduction / withdrawal was correlated with abnormal EEG before drug reduction [OR=9.268, 95%CI (2.255, 38.092)], combined drug treatment [OR=3.205, 95%CI (1.159, 8.866)] and course of disease > 1 year before treatment [OR=5.363, 95%CI (1.781, 16.150)] (P < 0.05).ConclusionsIn order to reduce the possibility of recurrence of epileptic children, the treatment time of epileptic children with abnormal EEG, combined medication and long course before treatment should be prolonged properly.
ObjectiveTo explore the risk factors for lymph node metastasis in patients with T2 stage non-small cell lung cancer.MethodsThe clinical data of 271 patients with non-small cell lung cancer who underwent surgical treatment in our hospital from 2014 to 2017 were collected, including 179 males and 92 females, with an average age of 62.73±0.58 years. The patients were divided into N0, N1, and N2 groups according to the lymph node metastasis status. The clinical data of the patients in different groups were compared.ResultsThe body mass index (BMI, P=0.043), preoperative lymph node enlargement (P<0.001), and tumor diameter (P<0.001) were significantly different among groups. The BMI (OR=1.131, 95%CI 1.001-1.277, P=0.048) and preoperative lymph node enlargement (OR=3.498, 95%CI 1.666-7.342, P=0.001) were independent risk factors for N2 lymph node metastasis, and tumor diameter was an independent risk factor for both N1 (OR=1.538, 95%CI 1.067-2.218, P=0.021) and N2 (OR=1.814, 95%CI 1.196-2.752, P=0.005) lymph node metastasis.ConclusionPatients with high BMI or enlarged lymph nodes before surgery have a high risk for N2 lymph node metastasis, and those with large tumor diameter have a high risk for both N1 and N2 lymph node metastasis.

Objective To analyze the risk factors for duration of mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients. Methods Ninety-six patients who received mechanical ventilation from January 2011 to December 2011 in intensive care unit were recruited in the study. The clinical data were collected retrospectively including the general condition, underlying diseases, vital signs before ventilation, laboratory examination, and APACHEⅡ score of the patients, etc. According to ventilation time, the patients were divided into a long-term group ( n = 41) and a short-term group ( n = 55) . Risk factors were screened by univariate analysis, then analyzed by logistic regression method.Results Univariate analysis revealed that the differences of temperature, respiratory index, PaCO2 , white blood cell count ( WBC) , plasma albumin ( ALB) , blood urea nitrogen ( BUN) , pulmonary artery wedge pressure ( PAWP) , APACHEⅡ, sex, lung infection in X-ray, abdominal distention, and complications between two groups were significant.With logistic multiple regression analysis, the lower level of ALB, higher level of PAWP, lung infection in X-ray, APACHE Ⅱ score, abdominal distention, and complications were independent predictors of long-term mechanical ventilation ( P lt;0. 05) . Conclusion Early improving the nutritional status and cardiac function, control infection effectively, keep stool patency, and avoid complications may shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo determine the risk factors associated with development of pancreatic fistula after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). Methods The clinical data of 123 consecutive patients who underwent PD from Dec. 1994 to Dec. 2003 were analysed retrospectively. Results The incidence of pancreatic fistula was 11.4% (14/123). Univariate analysis showed history of upper abdominal operation, texture of pancreas, postoperative serum hemoglobin level, type of pancreatojejunostomy and diameter of pancreatic duct were significantly associated with pancreatic fistula after PD. Multivariate analysis using Logistic regression identified four variables as independent factors associated with the occurrence of pancreatic fistula: history of upper abdominal operation, texture of pancreas, postoperative serum hemoglobin level and type of pancreatojejunostomy. Conclusion History of upper abdominal operation, soft texture of pancreas, postoperative serum hemoglobin level less than 90 g/L and routine invaginated pancreaticojejunostomy are main risk factors associated with development of pancreatic fistula after PD.
Objective To Analyze the high risk factors correlated to the perioperative complications of patients with lung cancer, aiming to study their predictive value on surgical safety and guide the perioperative treatment. Methods The clinical experience of 452 lung cancer patients undergone operation from June 2000 to May 2006 were retrospectively study. The risk factors which closely related to the occurrence of postoperative complications were analyze by multivariate statistical analysis with logistic regression. Results The operative mortality was 0.66%（3/452）, and the incidence rate of postoperative complications was 8.85%(40/452), including pulmonary infection, pulmonary atelectasis, arrhythmia, respiratory function failure, empyema, bronchopleural fistula, thoracic bleeding, etc. Multivariate statistical analysis with logistic regression demonstrated that the risk factors which closely related to the occurrence of postoperative complications were age over 70 year (OR=17.823), smoking index over 400 piece year(OR=5.666), concomitance with diseases of vital organs(OR=8.290), modus operandi of pneumonectomy(OR=7.991), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1.0%)≤60% (OR=0.922). Conclusion To evaluate above factors of lung cancer patients before operation, the probability of postoperative complications occurrence can be roughly forecasted. This can provide actively clinical guide to help the patients overcome the perioperation successfully and to increase the safety of surgery.
ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors, prognostic factors and prognosis of Multidrug-Resistant Acinetobacter Baumannii (MDR-AB) infection of lower respiratory tract in Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. MethodsUsing retrospective analysis, we reviewed and compared clinical data of 77 AB infections in lower respiratory tract cases in ICU from January 2013 to March 2015. According to the resistance, patients were divided into a MDR-AB group and a NMDR-AB group. Then the risk factors, prognostic factors and prognosis of MDR-AB infection were analyzed. ResultsA total of 58 cases in the MDR-AB group, 19 cases in the NMDR-AB group were included. The result showed that, the MDR-AB infection in lower respiratory tract could significantly prolong the length of ICU stay (18.5±16.0 vs. 10.6±9.3 days, P<0.05) and increase the mortality (44.8% vs. 11.1%, P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that the independent risk factors for MDR-AB infection in lower respiratory tract included Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (Apache Ⅱ) score >15 (OR=0.138, 95%CI 0.03 to 0.625, P=0.01) and use of carbapenems (OR=0.066, 95%CI 0.012 to 0.0346, P=0.001). The independent prognostic factors included placement of drainage tube (OR=8.743, 95%CI 1.528 to 50.018, P=0.015) and use of vasoactive drugs (OR=12.227, 95%CI 2.817 to 53.074, P=0.001). ConclusionThe MDR-AB infection in lower respiratory tract can significantly prolong the length of ICU stay and increase the mortality. The Apache Ⅱ score >15 and use of carbapenems are the risk factors, and the placement of drainage tube and use of vasoactive drugs can increase the mortality of MDR-AB infection of lower respiratory tract in ICU.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the prevalence and risk factors of the chronic post-cesarean section pain (CPCSP). MethodsPubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, CINAHL, PsycInfo, CBM, WanFang Data, VIP, and CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect studies on the prevalence and risk factors of CPCSP from inception to August 2021. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed using Stata 15.1 software. ResultsA total of 43 studies involving 12 435 participants were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that the prevalence of CPCSP for 2 to 5 months, 6 to 11 months, and at least 12 months were 19% (95%CI 15% to 23%), 13% (95%CI 9% to 17%), and 8% (95%CI 6% to 10%), respectively. The risk factors included preoperative pain present elsewhere, postoperative severe acute pain, low abdominal transverse incision, non-intrathecal administration of morphine, preoperative anxiety, postpartum depression, etc. ConclusionsThe current evidence shows that the overall prevalence of CPCSP is high. Preoperative pain presents elsewhere, postoperative severe acute pain, low abdominal transverse incision, non-intrathecal administration of morphine, preoperative anxiety and postpartum depression may increase the risk of CPCSP.
