Objective To analyze the clinical information of COVID-19 patients of Shanghai National Exhibition and Convention Center cabin hospital, and to explore the medical management strategy to provide thoughtful suggestions for other cabin hospitals and governments as valuable references. Methods The clinical data of 174 308 patients confirmed COVID-19 in Shanghai National Exhibition and Convention Center cabin hospital from April 9 to May 31, 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 103 539 male and 70 769 female patients, with an average age of 41.50±15.30 years. Medical and nursing management strategy was summarized. Results Among the 174 308 patients, 71.5% (124 630 patients) were asymptomatic. The vaccination rate of patients with COVID-19 in the cabin hospital was 76.5% (133 338 patients), and the majority of none vaccinated patients were children under the age of 10 years and the elderly over the age of 60 years, the vaccination rate of whom was only 25.0% (1 322 patients) and 63.9% (13 715 patients), respectively. In addition, the proportion of mild symptom type in the patients not vaccinated was significantly higher than that in the vaccinated patients (P≤0.01). The average hospitalization time of patients in cabin hospital was 7.39±0.53 days, which was 7.01±2.12 days for patients under 60 years and 8.21±0.82 days for patients over 60 years. The hospitalization time of elderly patients was significantly longer (P≤0.01), and the hospitalization time of elderly patients at age over 60 years without vaccination was 8.94±1.71 days, which was significantly longer than the average hospitalization time and the time of elderly patients vaccinated (P≤0.01). The number of patients combined with basic diseases was 27 864 (16.0%), of which cardiovascular diseases accounted for 81.3% (22 653 patients). A total of 2 085 patients were transferred and treated in designated hospitals. Conclusion Large scale cabin hospitals are helpful to cut off the source of infection. Attention shall be paid to the sorting of admission and timely transfer to other hospital during the patients management. Most of the patients have a good prognosis after treatment. The vaccination of key population and community-based screening will be the next step of focus.
ObjectiveTo investigate the epidemiological situation of pre-hospital emergency elderly and non-elderly patients in Chengdu and explore the characteristics of pre-hospital care in the city.MethodAll pre-hospital care records in the Chengdu 120 Emergency System Database in 2017 were retrospectively collected. According to the age of the patients, they were divided into the elderly group (≥60 years old) and the non-elderly group (<60 years old). The disease spectrum, the trends of the number of emergency help calls, the changes in different diseases over time, as well as the disease composition of the patients who died in the two groups were compared.ResultsA total of 179 387 pre-hospital emergency patients were enrolled, including 59 980 elderly patients and 119 407 non-elderly patients. Most of them were male patients in both groups. Patients in the elderly group were mainly between 60 to 89 years old, and the ones in the non-elderly group were mainly between 18 to 59 years old. The pre-hospital emergency patients in the elderly group presented with trauma, nervous system, symptoms and signs, and cardiovascular system diseases mainly, accounting for 29.19%, 14.64%, 13.82%, and 12.86%, respectively. In the non-elderly group, trauma, acute poisoning, and symptoms and signs were predominant, accounting for 50.89%, 10.98%, and 10.08%, respectively. Among the pre-hospital deaths, the number in the elderly group was the larger, accounting for 69.61% (7 043 cases); the mortality rate was 11.74%, with sudden death (28.70%), cardiovascular diseases (25.95%), and respiratory diseases (16.07%) being the major causes. The pre-hospital mortality rate of non-elderly patients was 2.58%, mainly including traumatic diseases (35.41%), sudden death (unknown cause of death) (25.33%), and cardiovascular diseases (17.56%). The number of emergency help calls in the elderly group began to increase gradually from September, reaching a peak in December and hitting the trough in February. While in the non-elderly group, the peak of the emergency help calls appeared in July, and it also fell to the lowest in February. The proportion of the number of emergency help calls in the elderly group was higher in January to February and October to December; while the peak in non-elderly group was in July. The number of emergency help calls in the elderly group were mainly concentrated in the daytime (08:00 to 20:00). In the non-elderly group, the changes in the number of emergency help calls were similar to that of the elderly, however, with another peak (20:00 to 24:00). The proportion of the number of emergency help calls in the elderly group was 06:00 to 09:59, and the peak time of the non-elderly group was in the early morning (00:00 to 04:59) and night (20:00 to 23:59).ConclusionsThe number of pre-hospital care for elderly and non-elderly patients has its own characteristics in terms of the time and the distribution of disease spectrum. Trauma and cardiovascular diseases are the most common causes of pre-hospital care and death in Chengdu. And the pre-hospital mortality in the elderly group is much larger than that in non-elderly group. Relevant departments can allocate emergency resources rationally, and focus on improving the on-site rescue capacity towards related diseases.
ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical characteristics and epidemiological characteristics of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 treated early in Jiangxi province.MethodsFour-night patients with coronavirus disease 2019 treated in this hospital from January 21st to 27th, 2020 were included in this study. The epidemiological and clinical data of patients after admission were collected, and laboratory tests such as blood routine, urine routine, stool routine, liver and kidney function, electrolytes, myocardial enzymes, erythrocyte sedimentation (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), calcitonin, coagulation, T cell subset and Chest CT were reviewed. The clinical results of common and severe/critically ill patients were compared.ResultsOf the 49 patients, 40 were common and 9 were severe/critical. Fourty-six patients had a clear history of contact with Wuhan or other areas of Hubei. The sex ratio was 2.06∶1, and the average age was 42.9 years. The symptoms were mainly fever (78.7%), cough (38.8%), and fatigue (18.4%). 28.6% (14 cases) of patients had hypertension and diabetes. Serum lymphocyte count and calcium concentration of the patients were decreased, but lactate dehydrogenase, ESR, CRP and serum amyloid A were increased in these patients. T lymphocyte subsets (CD3+, CD4+, CD8+) decreased significantly in these patients. Forty-seven patients (95.9%) had single or scattered patchy ground glass density shadows on the chest CT. Compared with common patients, the patients with severe/critical patients were older (P=0.023), hospitalized later (P=0.002), and had higher comorbidities (P=0.017). ESR (P=0.001）, CRP (P=0.010) and the serum amyloid A (P=0.040) increased significantly, while CD3+ (P<0.001), CD4+ (P=0.012), CD8+ (P=0.006) decreased significantly in severe/critical patients.ConclusionsThe patients with coronavirus disease 2019 in Jiangxi province are commonly imported from Wuhan. Severe/critical patients are older, hospitalized later, and have more medical complications and more severe systemic inflammatory reactions than common patients.

Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common heart valve disease. In recent years, the rise of interventional therapy has expanded the indications of interventional treatment for patients with MR, but the epidemiological characteristics of MR (especially the number of patients with MR requiring treatment) in China are still unclear. In this paper, we analyzed and estimated the number of MR patients in China based on three epidemiological studies in Europe and America, and referring to the patients population surveys from Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, the Second Affiliated Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine and Beijing Fuwai Hospital. Our analysis estimated that about 7.5 million patients with MR need intervention in China, including about 5.5 million patients with severe MR.
Psittacosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Chlamydia psittaci, and currently has a high misdiagnosis rate among sporadic psittacosis patients worldwide. In recent years, increasing evidence indicates that psittacosis can be transmitted between individuals through various pathways, including transmission by asymptomatic carriers and even tertiary human-to-human transmission. Currently, there is insufficient attention to this pathogen both domestically and internationally, and relevant systematic research is rare. This article systematically elaborates on the molecular epidemiology and human-to-human transmission, clinical characteristics, advances in molecular detection technology, treatment, and vaccine development of psittacosis, providing scientific basis for early diagnosis and effective prevention and control.

Objective To observe the clinical manifestation and treatment effect of Coatsprime; disease in adulthood. Methods The clinical data of 18 adult patients with Coatsprime; disease from 1980 to 2006 at the department of ophthalmology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital which had been diagnosed by ocular fundus examination and fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA), were retrospectively analyzed. The follow-up period was one year. Coatsprime; response diseases in all the patiens were excluded, such as history of radiation therapy, intraocular inflammation, retinal vascular occlusion, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and more leakage of diabetic retinopathy. The patients, 14 males and 4 females, 11 left eyes and 7 right eyes, all of them occurs in unilateral; aged from 37 to 55 years with the average age of 43 years; the initial diagnostic vision was 0.02 to 1.5, the visual value was 0.1. 17 patients (17 eyes) were treated by laser photocoagulation, 1 patient was treated by release of retinal operation with condensation. The mean follow up period was 3.7 years (ranged from 1 to 15.3 years). Results In 18 patients (18 eyes), vitreous clear in 14 eyes, vitreous few muddy in 4 years when initial diagnosis. The optic discs in 18 eyes are normal. Lesions confined to one or two quadrant, for the most are in the temporal(15/18 eyes), less are in Bice (4/18 eyes), only one eye at top; two eyes lesions involved in 2 quadrant. There are typical retinal vascular anomalies expansion, miliary aneurysm, arterial aneurysm, macroaneurysms and capillary without perfusion areas; yellowwhite hard leakage by a large block or cluster in Lesion corresponding region. More than half of the eyes with macular edema or leakage; limited retinal detachment in 4 eyes, the range was very wide in 1 eye; retinal hemorrhage in 3 eyes. After treatment the exudation or the hemorrhage were absorbed and retinas were reset. Compared the visual acuity with before treatment, mostly (64.3%) improved 2 lines or keep in 1.2-1.5, no one decreased over 2 lines. The last vision was 0.02-1.5, the visual value was 0.1. Conclusions Coatsprime; disease in adulthood diagnosed in first time has similar characteristics with children, such as vascular anomaly of retina, fundus exudation. The differences including limited area of involvement, less hemorrhages, mild damage on macular, slow development of lesions in follow-up period and better visual prognosis. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis，2008，24：279-282）
