2.83, 95%CI 1.71-4.68, P less then 0.001). Conclusions This study identified 12 risk factors of childhood obesity, including high birth weight, cesarean section, gestational diabetes, mother’s low educational level, single parent family, mother overweight, father overweight, strong appetite, fast eating speed, daily short outdoor activity time, daily short night sleep time, daily long screen viewing time, and interaction of the four groups of risk factors had statistical significance, including strong interaction between mother overweight and father overweight, interaction between strong appetite and fast eating speed, interaction between low intensity of outdoor activity and daily short outdoor activity time, interaction between daily short night sleep time and daily long screen viewing time.Objective To analyze the migration of the HIV/AIDS cases and related factors in Liangshan Yi autonomous prefecture (Liangshan). Methods According to HIV/AIDS Comprehensive Response Information Management System of China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention, a total of 28 772 HIV/AIDS cases who had follow-up records in Liangshan in 2020 were included in the survey. The migration of the HIV/AIDS cases was described and the related factors were analyzed using multiple logistic regression models, and the migration destinations of the HIV/AIDS cases were mapped. Results Among the 28 772 HIV/AIDS cases, 20.89% (6 010/28 772) had migration in 2020. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that among the HIV/AIDS cases, the migration related factors included being aged 15-24 years (compared with being aged 0-14 years, OR=2.74, 95%CI2.04-3.69) and ethnic group (compared with Han ethnic group, OR=2.44, 95%CI2.19-2.72), having education level of junior high school (compared with having educationication management of HIV/AIDS cases according to their characteristics in Liangshan. Timely access to information on changes in the place of work and residence of HIV/AIDS cases should be warranted when they have migration. Good referrals and management for mobility of HIV/AIDS cases in different places should be made to reduce loss to follow-up and improving interventions.

Medical guidelines represent the evidence-based state of the art of their scientific field. They aim to guide decisions for physicians and patients about appropriate health care for specific clinical circumstances. However, guideline recommendations are often not adhered to in clinical practice. In particular, a large discrepancy exists regarding the treatment of uncomplicated urinary tract infections. To date, just a few studies addressed the potential reasons for these guideline violations.

This investigation aimed to identify and complement reasons for the nonadherence to guideline recommendations.

A survey amongst a total of 563 German and Austrian urologists identified physician- and patient-related factors contributing to this current state.

The physician’s personal experience, the lack of applicability to individual patients, and shortage of time were identified as crucial barriers for the physician. Patient-related barriers were poor experience with the antibiotic, fear of collateral damage, and inadequate information about the disease and its therapy.

We suggest modifying guideline designs by including abstracts and flowcharts appropriate for daily use and separate patient instructions to improve guideline compliance. Furthermore, guideline authors should communicate updates in a timely and accessible manner. Presentations at scientific congresses increase visibility and enhance the dialogue with colleagues.

The correlations between the skin permeability coefficients log Kd calculated in silico using EpiSuite software and the RP-18 thin layer chromatographic retention parameters are mostly linear, especially for compounds of lower-to-medium lipophilicity. It was established that skin permeability coefficient models based on retention parameters collected for mobile phases containing acetone or dioxane (75% v/v), proposed for structurally unrelated cosmetic raw materials are also applicable to other actives, as shown using a test set of compounds whose in vivo log Kd data are available. Skin permeability models developed in this study have the benefit of being based on easily obtained, chromatographic descriptors and their applicability extends beyond cosmetic chemistry.Neonatal hyperglycaemia is common in extremely low birth weight (ELBW, less then 1,000 g) infants, associated with a number of adverse clinical outcomes, and usually treated with continuous intravenous insulin infusion (CIVII). We report a case of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) in an ELBW neonate (730 g, 25 weeks GA) requiring insulin infusion for transient idiopathic hyperglycaemia. After presenting hyperglycaemia on day 4, the patient was treated with CIVII. From day 12 to 34, CSII was used to replace central venous catheter. Insulin requirements were lower and glycaemia more stable under CSII. No side effect was noticed. CSII was also beneficial for developmental care, allowing parents to be more easily involved in their baby’s care. Thus, CSII appeared to be a safe and reliable alternative for insulin administration in ELBW infants. However, indication and management requires training of the NICU team by paediatric diabetes specialists.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the benefit and tolerability of two dosages of a proprietary flaxseed mucilage (IQP-LU-104) in reducing body weight in overweight and moderately obese individuals.

In a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, bi-center trial, 108 participants (body mass index [BMI] 25-<35 kg/m2) were randomly allocated to receive either IQP-LU-104 high dose (104HD), IQP-LU-104 low dose (104LD), or placebo. Participants were instructed to consume 1 sachet of the investigational product (containing IQP-LU-104 or matching placebo) before or with main meals twice daily and to follow a balanced but hypocaloric diet (20% reduction of individual’s daily energy requirements) for 12 weeks. At week 0 (baseline), and weeks 4, 8, and 12 of the intervention periods, the participants’ body weight, BMI, body fat composition, and waist and hip circumferences were measured. Blood samples were collected for safety assessment at screening visit (week -2) and at the end of the study. Adverse evee of IQP-LU-104.

Results demonstrated IQP-LU-104 is safe and efficacious in body weight reduction at both dosages in overweight and moderately obese individuals.

Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is technically challenging in the treatment of portal vein cavernous transformation (PVCT), and there is no high-quality evidence regarding whether it is an option for patients with PVCT. We carried out a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the feasibility and safety of TIPS for PVCT.

Systematic search of PubMed, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure Database (CNKI), Cochrane Library, Embase and Wanfang database through December 2021 for appropriate studies reporting efficacy and safety in patients with PVCT undergoing TIPS. The main outcome included the technical successful rate, postoperative rebleeding rate, postoperative hepatic encephalopathy rate, stent patency rate, preoperative and postoperative portal pressure.

Ten studies including 292 patients were included. Our results showed that TIPS was technically successful in 82.97% [95% confidence interval (CI) 77.14%-88.41%, P=0.297] with low heterogeneity (I2=18.39%, P=0.279). Postoperative rebleeding occurred in 9.56% (95% CI 4.55%-16.77%, P=0.073) with moderate heterogeneity (I2=46.45%, P=0.06). Postoperative hepatic encephalopathy occurred in 18.55% (95%CI 9.23%-27.05%, P=0.343) with moderate heterogeneity (I2=48.62%, P=0.049). Stent patency during follow-up was in 78.43% (95%CI 70.74%-85.20%, P=0.805) with low heterogeneity (I2=0%, p=0.654). Postoperative portal pressure significantly reduced (WMD=12.79mm Hg, 95% CI 12.09-13.48mm Hg, P＜0.00001) with high heterogeneity (I2 = 61.4%, P=0.02). Both Begg test and funnel plot showed that there was no significant publication bias.

TIPS is feasible and safe in patients with PVCT and PVCT should not be considered an absolute contraindication to TIPS.

The incidence and clinical significance of postoperative urinary retention (POUR) remain high. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of POUR and related risk factors in patients who underwent total mesorectal excision (TMR) for low rectal cancer.

This study is a retrospective review of a prospectively collected colorectal database from a single center. Data from patients who underwent surgery for low rectal cancer between September 2006 and May 2017 were analyzed to assess the risk factors of POUR. POUR was considered inability to void after urinary catheter removal requiring catheter reinsertion and difficulty in bladder emptying requiring intermittent catheterization.

Of 555 patients with low rectal cancer, 78 (14.1%) developed POUR. Based on multivariate logistic regression analysis, laparoscopic TMR (odds ratio [OR]; 2.114, 95% confidence interval [CI]; 1.212-3.689, p = 0.008) and postoperative ileus (OR; 2.389, 95% CI; 1.282-4.450, p = 0.006) were independent risk factors of POUR. Male gender, advanced age, neoadjuvant chemoradiation, longer operative time, abdominoperineal resection, and lateral pelvic lymph node dissection were not associated with POUR. Advanced age over 65 years also failed to show statistical significance (OR; 1.604, 95% CI; 0.965-2.668, p = 0.068).

Laparoscopic approach and postoperative ileus are risk factors for POUR after low rectal cancer surgery. We postulate that the benefits of robotic surgical systems compared to a laparoscopic approach may reduce the incidence of POUR.

Hyperuricemia is an independent risk factor for diabetic kidney disease (DKD) progression. Previous animal and cohort studies have reported that allopurinol administration could be of therapeutic benefit in diabetic subjects. However, there has been controversy regarding the effects of allopurinol on DKD.

The aim of our study was to investigate the efficacy of allopurinol on renal function in patients with DKD by meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were searched from inception to October 2020. The primary outcome was a change in glomerular filtration rate (GFR). The secondary outcome was the change in albuminuria and serum uric acid (UA). Two reviewers independently assessed for risk of bias and extracted data. Standardized mean difference (SMD) or weighted mean difference (WMD) was calculated with random effects models and was reported with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) of the evidence was performed after meta-analysis.
