ObjectiveTo systematically review the association between acid suppressive drug use and fracture risk in children and adolescents. MethodsThe PubMed, Web of Science, EMbase, Cochrane Library, CNKI and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect observational studies on the association between acid suppressive drug use and fracture risk in children and adolescents from inception to October 1, 2022. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using R4.1.2 software. ResultsA total of 6 studies involving 1 886 423 children and adolescents were included. Meta-analysis results showed that the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) increased the risk of fracture (RR=1.19, 95%CI 1.10 to 1.29, P<0.01), whereas the use of histamine H2 receptor antagonists (H2RAs) did not increase the risk of fracture (P>0.05). Subgroup analysis showed that PPIs use increased risk of fracture in the lower limb and other sites (P<0.05). ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that PPIs can increase fracture risk in children and adolescents, but no association has been found between the use of H2RAs and increased fracture risk in this group. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo explore the clinical characteristics, neuroimaging, diagnosis and treatment process of inpatients with Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy (JME).Methods83 inpatients with JME in the Epilepsy Center of Lanzhou University Second Hospital from January 2016 to August 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Their clinical features, seizure types, inducing factors, MRI and EEG, first consultation hospital, reason for visit and drug treatment were summarized.ResultsAmong the 83 patients, there were 43 males and 40 females, with an average age of (18±5.6) years. 21 patients had family history of epilepsy or history of febrile convulsion. the average age of onset was 11.5 years old, which was earlier than those without family history and history of febrile convulsion (P<0.05). The results of cranial nuclear magnetic resonance examination were abnormal in 14 patients, including hippocampal sclerosis and local small cysts. The first symptom of 62.7% JME patients is myoclonic seizures, followed by tonic-clonic seizures, sleep deprivation was the most common inducing factor, and tonic-clonic seizures was the most common cause of treatment in JME patients, accounting for 78.3%. 80.7% of patients choose local primary hospitals for their first consultation, and there was a non-standard use of ASMs in treatment, and the seizure free rate of epilepsy after ASMs treatment was 6%, which was lower than that in provincial hospitals (P<0.05). 88% of JME inpatients can effectively control their seizures through monotherapy, among which valproic acid is the most commonly used monotherapy and combination therapy. The new oral ASMs lamotrigine and levetiracetam tablets were mostly used in female patients.ConclusionA family history of epilepsy and history of febrile convulsion may be associated with an earlier age of onset in patients with JME. Neuroimaging abnormalities can be found in a small number of patients with JME, including hippocampal sclerosis and local small cysts. Tonic-clonic seizures is the main treatment cause of JME patients, and most of them are first diagnosed in local hospitals, but the seizure free rate of epilepsy in local hospitals after ASMs treatment is low, so the training of epilepsy related knowledge for doctors in primary hospitals is helpful to the diagnosis of clinical JME and improve its control rate.
【Abstract】 Objective To observe the effectiveness of limited operations and Ilizarov techniques for correction of congenital clubfoot (CCF) in adolescents, and to explore the new methods and new ideas for functional reconstruction of CCF. Methods Between September 2003 and July 2010, 25 adolescent patients (40 feet) with CCF were treated. Of the 25 patients, 14 were male (20 feet) and 11 were female (20 feet) with an age range from 12 to 25 years (mean, 15.7 years). The left feet were involved in 4 cases, the right feet in 6 cases, and both feet in 15 cases. According to Qin’s clubfoot deformity scale, 9 feet were rated as degree I, 17 feet as degree II, and 14 feet as degree III. In these cases, 9 feet were accompanied by internal rotation deformities of crus and 1 case by subluxation of right hip joint. After soft tissue release and osteotomy, 9 feet (degree I) were fixed by composite external fixation instruments, 31 feet by Ilizarov external fixation instruments. The deformity was corrected from 5 to 7 days after operation with distraction of 0.5-1.0 mm/d, then distraction stopped when the ankle was corrected at a hyperextension of 5 to 10° and light valgus. The affected limb might undergo weight bearing walking with external fixation at corrected position for 4 to 6 weeks. If one had both feet deformity, staged operation should be performed with a surgery interval of 3 to 6 months (mean, 4 months). Results The fixation time was 6-12 weeks (mean, 8 weeks) in 9 feet fixed by composite external fixation instruments, and it was 6-17 weeks (mean, 13 weeks) in 31 feet fixed by Ilizarov external fixation. All 25 patients were followed up 8 months to 6 years with an average of 37 months. During distraction process, slight pin track infection occurred in 6 cases (6 feet), which were cured after expectant management. One patient had recurrence of the deformity at 2 years postoperatively, who obtained satisfactory correction after Ilizarov external fixation for 4 weeks. The satisfactory correction and foot function were achieved in the other feet with walking on full weight-bearing. According to International Clubfoot Study Group (ICFSG) score, the results were excellent in 28 feet, good in 10 feet, and fair in 2 feet, with an excellent and good rate of 95% at last follow-up. Conclusion Combined limited operation with Ilizarov technique for correcting adolescent CCF is accord with biology principle and minimally invasive surgical principle, so it is a safe，minimally invasive, and effective method. It also can broaden the operative indications and correct degree III talipes equinovarus which is unattainable by traditional orthopedic surgery.
The incidence of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in adolescents has been rapidly increasing over the past two decades due to dramatic changes in dietary structure and physical activity. The incidence of diabetic retinopathy (DR), a serious vision-threatening complication of diabetes, is also increasing yearly in the adolescent population with T2DM. Due to the insidious onset of retinal diseases in the early stages, regular screening is important for the timely diagnosis of DR. However, there are still problems such as low attention of the population and insufficient screening rate. In the future, we should strengthen the health education of the adolescent population and optimize the control of risk factors such as blood glucose and blood pressure. At the same time, appropriate screening strategies should be actively developed, and the use of telemedicine and emerging technologies should be promoted for early detection of treatable lesions to improve patient prognosis.

Objective To investigate the suicide related factors of the teenagers after trauma and further discuss the prevalence and related factors of suicide idea plan and behavior. Methods Using the general information questionnaire and the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) to investigate the primary and secondary students in the nine worst-hit areas in Wenchuan earthquake of 2008, with cluster random sampling and the class as a sampling unit, to extract random 110 primary and middle schools and gather their general information, disaster-related cases and scores of suicide in YRBS. According to the different types of data, we used descriptive statistics,t test,Chi square test and Logistic regression analysis and respectively use single factor analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis for suicide idea, plan and behavior. Results A total of 7 833 questionnaires were sent out and a total of 7 521 questionnaires were collected and the recovery rate was 96. 02%. Among them, there were 6 875 valid questionnaires (91.41%) and 636 invalid questionnaires. According to the investigation, the prevalence of the primary and secondary students which had seriously considered suicide was 6. 90%, which had a plan to commit suicide was 4.00% and which tried to take over the action of suicide was 2.70%. With general information for the independent variable, logistic regression analysis showed that whether there had seriously considered suicide as the dependent variable: age (OR=1.178, 95%CI 1.098 to 1.178) and changed in family structure after the earthquake (OR=1.360, 95%CI 1.360 to 1.085) were risk factors for post disaster the teenagers with suicide idea; whether there had been plan to commit suicide as the dependent variable: age (OR=1.099, 95%CI 1.050 to 1.150), the history of being buried in ruin (OR=2.155, 95%CI to 1.104 to 4.205) and changed in family structure after the earthquake (OR=1.495, 95%CI 1.128 to 1.981) were risk factors for post disaster the teenagers with suicide plan; whether took over the action of suicide as the dependent variable: male (OR=1.513, 95%CI 1.122 to 2.039) and changed in family structure after the earthquake (OR=1.555, 95%CI 1.112 to 2.175) were risk factors for post disaster the teenagers with suicide behavior. Conclusion Age and changed in family structure after the earthquake were the risk factors for suicide idea and age was positively correlated with suicidal idea. Age, had the history of being buried in ruin and changed in family structure after the earthquake were the risk factors for suicide plan and age was positively associated with suicide plan. Male and changed in family structure after the earthquake were the risk factors for suicide behavior. Among them, changed in family structure after the earthquake was the common risk factor. So there should be targeted psychological assessment and psychological rehabilitation intervention to avoid the risk of suicide among the teenagers after the disaster.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the methodological quality of guidelines concerning attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children and adolescents, and to compare differences and similarities of the drugs recommended, in order to provide guidance for clinical practice. MethodsGuidelines concerning ADHD were electronically retrieved in PubMed, EMbase, VIP, WanFang Data, CNKI, NGC (National Guideline Clearinghouse), GIN (Guidelines International Network), NICE (National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence) from inception to December 2013. The methodological quality of included guidelines were evaluated according to the AGREE Ⅱ instrument, and the differences between recommendations were compared. ResultsA total of 9 guidelines concerning ADHD in children and adolescents were included, with development time ranging from 2004 to 2012. Among 9 guidelines, 4 were made by the USA, 3 in Europe and 2 by UK. The levels of recommendations were Level A for 2 guidelines, and Level B for 7 guidelines. The scores of guidelines according to the domains of AGREE Ⅱ decreased from "clarity of presentations", "scope and purpose", "participants", "applicability", "rigour of development" and "editorial independence". Three evidence-based guidelines scored the top three in the domain of "rigour of development". There were slightly differences in the recommendations of different guidelines. ConclusionThe overall methodological quality of ADHD guidelines is suboptimal in different countries or regions. The 6 domains involving 23 items in AGREE Ⅱ vary with scores, while the scores of evidence-base guidelines are higher than those of non-evidence-based guidelines. The guidelines on ADHD in children and adolescents should be improved in "rigour of development" and "applicability" in future. Conflicts of interest should be addressed. And the guidelines are recommended to be developed on the basis of methods of evidence-based medicine, and best evidence is recommended.
