To explore relevant influencing factors of the prognosis of patients with winter sports-induced traumatic cervical spinal cord injury complicated with intramedullary hemorrhage and edema after emergency surgical treatment. ⋯ Emergency surgery can improve the neurological function of patients with cervical spinal cord injury complicated with intramedullary hemorrhage and edema caused by winter sports. Concomitant diabetes, preoperative MSCC and recovery rate of AMS 3d after operation are the main factors affecting the prognosis of patients with emergency surgery.
-
To investigate the clinical value of the expression levels of tumor protein D52 (TPD52) and miR-133a on the prognosis assessment of pancreatic cancer surgery. ⋯ TPD52 is expressed at a high level whereas miR-133a at a low level in pancreatic cancer tissues, both of which together with low differentiation of pancreatic cancer and III-IV stage of TNM constitute independent risk factors affecting the surgical prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer.
-
To explore risk factors of electrical status epilepticus during sleep in children with benign childhood epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes (BECT). ⋯ Clinically, the occurrence of ESES in children with BECT may be related to the younger age of the first seizure, higher frequency of seizures before treatment, and the occurrence of seizures after treatment.

This study aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of Ultrasonography, considering nerve conduction study (NCS) as the gold standard diagnostic modality for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). ⋯ Based on the sensitivity and specificity, Ultrasonography may assist in diagnosing CTS.
-
To explore the effects of serum glycated serum protein (GSP), homocysteine (Hcy) and cystatin-C (Cys-C) levels on pregnancy outcomes in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). ⋯ GDM is associated with a high risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Levels of serum GSP, Hcy, and Cys-C are higher in patients with GDM. The higher the levels of GSP, Hcy, and Cys-C, the greater the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Combining these three indicators can effectively predict maternal pregnancy outcomes.
