BMC Urol (2021) 21:72 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12894-021-00841-4 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Efects of irrigation fuid temperature during fexible ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy on postoperative fever and shivering: a randomized controlled trial Yue He1,2*, You‑Gang Feng1, Jun He1, Bo Liang1, Ming‑Dong Jiang1, Jun Liu1, Yong‑Ming Kang1, Li‑Ping Ma3, Qin Zhang3, Qi‑Jia Peng3, Tao Yang1, Yao Liu3, Li Luo4 and Min Zhang4 Abstract Background: Flexible ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy is used to treat urinary tract calculi, but postopera‑ tive complications include shivering, fever and infection. To investigate the efects of irrigation fuid temperature on postoperative complications. Methods: This randomized controlled trial included 120 consecutive patients undergoing fexible ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy at the Urology Department, Suining Central Hospital, Sichuan, China between January 2017 and July 2019. Patients were randomized 1:1:1 into three groups (17 °C, 27 °C or 37 °C). Primary outcome was fever incidence (body temperature > 37.5 °C) within 48 h after surgery. Secondary outcomes included shivering incidence during recovery from anesthesia, white blood cell count (WBC), serum procalcitonin (PCT) and incidence of sus‑ pected infection (temperature > 38.5 °C and PCT > 0.5 µg/L). Results: There were 108 patients, (17 °C group, n 36; 27 °C group, n 35; 37 °C group, n 37), received fexible ureteroscopic holmium laser lithotripsy and analyzed.= Age, gender distribution,= body mass= index, ASA grade, stone burden, preoperative creatinine, preoperative core temperature and irrigation fuid volume did not difer signifcantly between groups. 17 °C, 27 °C and 37 °C groups exhibited signifcant diferences in the incidences of postoperative fever (38.9% vs. 17.1% vs. 13.5%) and shivering (22.2% vs. 5.7% vs. 2.7%) (p < 0.05 for all pairwise comparisons). There was no signifcant diference of WBC, PCT and incidence of suspected infection in 37 °C or 27 °C group compared with 17 °C group. One case each of fash pulmonary edema and bleeding occurred in 37 °C group. Conclusion: Warming the irrigation fuid can reduce the incidence of postoperative fever and shivering, but further studies are needed to determine the optimal temperature. Trial registration The trial was registered at the Chinese Clinical Trials Registry and allocated as ChiCTR2000031683. The trial was registered on 07/04/2020 and this was a retrospective registration.

Abstract. Promoting the construction of characteristic towns under the background of new urbanization is an important way for my country to break the bottleneck of economic development and realize economic transformation and upgrading. In recent years, although the construction of characteristic towns in Sichuan Province has achieved remarkable results and a large number, especially tourist and leisure characteristic towns accounted for the largest proportion, they still face urgent problems such as avoiding redundant construction, achieving scientific development, and overall planning. This study takes 20 cultural tourism characteristic towns selected by the first batch of Sichuan Province as the research object, combined with field research and tourist questionnaire surveys, and screened out relevant influencing factors of characteristic towns from different aspects such as transportation, economy, industry, ecology, historical and cultural heritage. Analyze the correlation with the development level of characteristic towns in order to find out the key factors affecting the development of characteristic towns of this type, provide a policy basis for the scientific development and overall planning of reserve characteristic towns in our province, and contribute to the construction of new urbanization And provide advice and suggestions on the development of tourism industry in our province.

All kinds of special children can reflect the education. The main purpose of physical education in special performance of motor retardation. Therefore, there are many schools is to compensate and recover the defects. This paper uses theories and practices in special sports that can be used for questionnaires, interviews, on-site inspections, literature and reference in motor rehabilitation. Only by combining special other methods to investigate the development of sports in 14 sports with motor rehabilitation can the role of "therapeutic special schools in Sichuan Province. From the four aspects of education" be given full play. school construction, teacher strength, student attitude and teaching activities, it is found that students from special schools, Through the investigation, analysis and suggestions on the especially those in the Department of Intellectual Development, "special sports" of 13 special education schools in the province, are very fond of physical education classes and are eager to the concept of action rehabilitation education is integrated into participate in more physical exercise. Their enthusiasm and special physical education, which provides reference and desire exceed those of other departments; the physical education suggestions for deepening the reform and development of faculty in the Department of Mentally Retarded Students is weak, special physical education.

  • Gingival Bleeding and Calculus Among 12-Year-Old Chinese Adolescents: a Multilevel Analysis
    Chen et al. BMC Oral Health (2020) 20:147 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12903-020-01125-3 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Gingival bleeding and calculus among 12- year-old Chinese adolescents: a multilevel analysis Hong Chen1,2†, Rui Zhang1,2†, Ran Cheng2,3, Ting Xu1,2, Tao Zhang1,2, Xiao Hong2,3, Xing Zhao5, Yunyun Wu5, Li Cheng2,3 and Tao Hu2,4* Abstract Background: Gingivitis is a common oral health problem, and untreated gingivitis can progress to periodontitis. The objectives of this study were to (1) explore associated factors of gingival bleeding and calculus among 12-year- old adolescents; (2) find predictive models for gingivitis management. Methods: Four thousand five hundred twenty-five subjects aged 12 in Sichuan Province were investigated. The questionnaire and clinical examination were applied in schools, and two-level logistic regression models were constructed to interpret the effect of individual and contextual factors on Chinese adolescents’ gingival bleeding and calculus. Results: 46.63% (95%CI: 40.71, 51.60) and 66.94% (95%CI: 56.85, 67.45) of the subjects presented gingival bleeding and calculus, respectively. For the gingival bleeding cases, the model showed the significant associated indicators were hukou (OR = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.52–0.72), family size (OR = 1.41, 95% CI: 1.19–1.68), parental educational level (father: OR = 0.53, 95% CI: 0.45–0.63; mother: OR = 0.71, 95% CI: 0.59–0.86), tooth-brushing frequency (OR = 0.35, 95% CI: 0.26–0.48), dental floss use (OR = 0.58, 95% CI: 0.41–0.83), sugar-containing drink consumption (OR = 2.11, 95% CI: 1.80–2.49), and dental visit (OR = 1.44, 95% CI: 1.19–1.74).
