ObjectiveTo systematically review the incidence and influencing factors of early enteral nutritional feeding interruptions in critically ill patients. MethodsThe PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, WanFang Data and CBM databases were electronically searched to collect observational studies on the early enteral nutritional feeding interruptions in critically ill patients from inception to January 2, 2024. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using Stata 17.0 software. ResultsA total of 12 studies including 1 121 patients were included. Meta-analysis showed that the incidence of early enteral nutritional feeding interruptions in critically ill patients was 75.0% (95%CI 64.0% to 84.0%). Influenced by feeding intolerance, airway management, tube problems, radiological examination, and endoscopy, surgery and so on, interruptions of early enteral nutritional feeding frequently occur in critically ill patients. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that early enteral feeding interruptions in critically ill patients are affected by many factors, and the incidence is high. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the incidence of internet addiction disorder among college students in China.MethodsPubMed, EMbase, VIP, WanFang Data and CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect cross-sectional studies on incidence rate of college students’ internet addiction in China from inception to February 2020. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, then, meta-analysis was performed by Stata 16.0 software.ResultsA total of 65 cross-sectional studies involving 87 702 subjects were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: the overall incidence of college students’ internet addiction in China was 10.7% (95%CI 9.6% to 11.8%). The incidence of internet addiction from 2011 to 2018 (11.7%, 95%CI 10.2% to 13.2%) was higher than that from 2005 to 2010 (9.6%, 95%CI 8.1% to 11.1%). The incidence in male students (14.6%, 95%CI 13.1% to 16.0%) was higher than that in female students (6.9%, 95%CI 5.9% to 7.8%). The incidence of urban students (12.2%, 95%CI 9.3% to 15.2%) was higher than that of rural students (9.0%, 95%CI 7.3% to 10.6%). The incidence of students who were not satisfied with their major (16.2%, 95%CI 5.5% to 26.8%) was higher than that of satisfied (5.0%, 95%CI 1.3% to 8.8%). The incidence of students with poor academic performance (29.4%, 95%CI 11.9% to 47%) was higher than of excellent academic performance (4.1%, 95%CI 1.9% to 6.4%).ConclusionsThe incidence rate of internet addiction among college students in China shows an obvious upward trend. There are differences in the incidence rates of internet addiction among college students in different regions. The incidence rates of internet addiction are different among different genders, degree of satisfaction with their majors and academic achievements.
ObjectiveTo investigate the associations of preoperative red cell distribution width (RDW) with mortality and morbidity in patients underwent liver transplantation. MethodsThis investigation was a retrospective study, the patients underwent liver transplantation met the inclusion criteria from June 2017 to May 2020 in the West China Hospital of Sichuan University were enrolled. The patients were divided into RDW≤14.5% group and RDW>14.5% group according to the normal RDW critical value (14.5%). The propensity score matching (PSM) was used to adjust the baseline characteristics. The primary outcome was 1-year mortality. The secondary outcomes included 1-year survival, 30-day mortality, incidence of early allograft dysfunction, acute kidney injury, renal replacement therapy, and pulmonary complications, as well as ICU stay and postoperative hospital stay. ResultsA total of 303 patients who met the analysis conditions were included. After PSM, 57 patients in each group were matched. There were no significant differences between the two groups in the baseline data such as the gender, age, body mass index (BMI), initial diagnosis, MELD score, Child-Pugh grade of the recipients, and the gender, age, and BMI of the donors (P>0.05). The 1-year [22.8% (13/57) versus 5.3% (3/57), χ2=7.27, P=0.007] and 30-day [15.8% (9/57) versus 3.5% (2/57), χ2=4.93, P=0.026] mortality of the patients with RDW >14.5% were higher than that of the patients with RDW ≤14.5% . The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the 1-year survival of the patients with RDW ≤14.5% after liver transplantation was better than that of the patients with RDW >14.5% [hazard ratio=4.75, 95%CI (1.78, 12.67), P=0.007], but there were no significant differences between the two groups in the incidence of early graft dysfunction, acute renal injury, renal replacement therapy, and pulmonary complications, as well as postoperative hospital stay and ICU stay (P>0.05). ConclusionPreliminary results of this study indicate that preoperative RDW of patients underwent allogeneic liver transplantation is associated with1-year mortality, 30-day mortality, and 1-year survival.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the characteristics of adverse transfusion reaction in Grade Three Class-A hospitals in China, and to provide scientific evidence for related control and prevention work. MethodsSuch databases as the PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 11, 2014), CNKI, VIP, WanFang Data and CBM were searched for studies investigating the characteristics of adverse transfusion reaction with ≥6 months observation time in Grade Three Class-A hospitals in China up to November 2014. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data and assessed the methodological quality of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using the R 3.1.1 software. ResultsSeventy-two studies involving 1 660 472 cases of blood transfusion were included. The results of pooled analysis showed that the total number of adverse transfusion reaction rate was 0.58% (95%CI 0.48 to 0.69). Sub-group analysis shows that the blood transfusion adverse reaction rates in the eastern, central and western regions were 0.42% (95%CI 0.31 to 0.55), 0.55% (95%CI 0.41 to 0.70), 0.56% (95%CI 0.43 to 0.70), respectively; and there were statistical differences between regions (P<0.05). Different types of adverse transfusion reaction rates were 38.85% (95%CI 34.27 to 43.53) for non hemolytic febrile reaction and 55.67% (95%CI 50.79 to 60.50) for allergic. The adverse reactions incidence of different kinds of blood products transfusion occurred were 0.41% (95%CI 0.32 to 0.50) in red blood cell, 0.57% (95%CI 0.43 to 0.72) in plasma, 1.00% (95%CI 0.73 to 1.30) in platelet. The incidence of adverse reaction of platelet transfusion was significantly higher than that of red blood cell and plasma (P<0.05). ConclusionThere is a big gap between domestic and foreign blood transfusion adverse reaction reports, therefore comprehensive measures should be taken for further prevention and control.
Objective To comprehensively investigate the incidence of resorption of lumbar disc herniation, and provide reference data for clinical decision-making. Methods Seven electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wangfang data and Chongqing VIP database) were searched for relevant studies that might have reported morphologic changes in lumbar disc herniation when reporting the follow-up results of patients with lumbar disc herniation treated non-surgically from inception to March, 2020. Articles were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, and the total number of patients, number of patients with resorption, and other important data were extracted for analysis. Random effect models were used for meta-analysis, and subgroup analysis, sensitivity analysis, meta-regression analysis, and Egger’s test were performed. Results A total of 15712 articles were identified from these databases, and 48 were eligible for analysis. A total of 2880 non-surgically treated patients with lumbar disc herniation were included in the meta-analysis, 1740 of whom presented resorption. Meta-analysis revealed that the incidence of resorption was 0.60 [95% confidence interval (CI) (0.46, 0.72)]. In subgroup analyses, studies that quantitatively measured the resorption of lumbar disc herniation yielded statistically higher pooled incidence [0.73, 95%CI (0.60, 0.85)] than those that used qualitative methods [0.51, 95%CI (0.34, 0.69)] (P=0.0252). The pooled incidence gradually increased in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) [0.50, 95%CI (0.15, 0.85)], non-RCT prospective studies [0.59, 95%CI (0.48, 0.70)] and retrospective studies [0.69, 95%CI (0.36, 0.95)], but the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.7523). The pooled incidence varied from 0.58 [95%CI (0.54, 0.71)] to 0.62 [95%CI (0.49, 0.74)] after the sequential omission of each single study. There was no significant change in the pooled incidence [0.62, 95%CI (0.43, 0.79)] when only low-risk RCTs and high-quality non-RCT studies were included, comparing with original meta-analysis results. Meta-regression showed that measurements partially caused heterogeneity (R2=15.34%, P=0.0858). Egger’s test suggested that there was no publication bias (P=0.4622). Conclusions According to current research, there is an overall incidence of resorption of 60% [95%CI (46%, 72%)] among non-surgically treated patients with lumbar disc herniation. The probability of resorption should be fully considered before making a decision on surgery.
ObjectivesTo systematically review the complications of knee arthroscopic surgeries in China.MethodsWe searched PubMed, EMbase, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases to collect cross-sectional studies on the complications of knee arthroscopic surgeries in China from inception to March 1st, 2019. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 12.0 software.ResultsA total of 36 studies involving 20 740 cases were included. The results of meta-analysis showed the incidence rate of complication in knee arthroscopic surgeries in China was 9.71% (95%CI 8.20% to 11.23%). Subgroup analysis showed that the complication incidence rates in the eastern, central and western regions were 10.04% (95%CI 8.00% to 12.14%), 9.67% (95%CI 6.57% to 12.76%) and 7.47% (95%CI 6.20% to 8.73%). The complication incidence rates in the upper first-class and non-upper first-class hospitals were 9.50% (95%CI 7.83% to 11.17%) and 10.95% (95%CI 6.75% to 15.14%). The top 3 complication types with highest incidence rate included joint effusion［2.16% (95%CI 1.44% to 2.87%)］, accidental injury of native structures［1.49% (95%CI 0.96% to 2.03%)］ and hemorrhage［1.43% (95%CI 1.01% to 1.84%)］. Other severe complications including neurovascular injury, thrombosis diseases and infection were 0.06% (95%CI 0.02% to 0.11%), 0.33% (95%CI 0.19% to 0.48%) and 0.08% (95%CI 0.03% to 0.13%).ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that the complication incidence rate of arthroscopic surgeries in China is relatively high and the complication type is complex and varied. Due to the quantity and quality of the included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions in future.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the prevalence of elder abuse in China.MethodsPubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect cross-sectional studies on the prevalence of elder abuse in China from inception to June 2019. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed risk bias of included studies; then, meta-analysis was performed by R 3.5.1 software.ResultsA total of 11 cross-sectional studies involving 23 020 subjects were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that the prevalence of abuse among the elderly in China was 20.29% (95%CI 12.9% to 28.9%). The highest prevalence of elder abuse subtype was psychological abuse with 15.06% (95%CI 10.2% to 20.6%). The prevalence rates were 20.1% in male and 23.64% in female. The prevalence rates in individuals aged between 60 to 70, 70 to 80 and above 80 were 19.76%, 22.24% and 29.19%, respectively. Illiterates and non-illiterates were 29.39% and 22.52% respectively. Normal marital status was 28.24%, and abnormal status was 31.38%. The elderly living alone was the highest (50.67%), compared with family residents (39.42%) and elderly living in pension institutions (29.94%). The elderly without chronic diseases (16.05%) was lower than elderly with chronic diseases (25.49%), and elderly having normal capability of daily living (26.89%) was lower than elderly having reduced capability of daily living (48.78%). Urban residents were 18.46%, while rural residents were 19.69%.ConclusionsThere is a high incidence of elder abuse in China, and it tends to increase with the increase of age. There are certain differences in the prevalence of elder maltreatment among different genders, ages, educational levels, marital status, living forms and spaces, and health conditions. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify the above conclusion.
