This article reports a case of a male patient， aged 60 years， who developed pyrrolizidine alkaloid-induced hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome （PA-HSOS） due to ingestion of Gynura segetum （Lour.） Merr. The patient presented with ascites and abnormal liver function， and a confirmed diagnosis was made based on radiological examination and liver biopsy. Since the patient was allergic to low-molecular-weight heparin and had no response to supportive therapy， low-dose defibrotide was administered as rescue treatment. After treatment， the patient achieved rapid regression of ascites and recovery of liver function， and liver biopsy reexamination showed alleviation of sinusoidal congestion and hepatocyte regeneration. Self-resolving conjunctival hemorrhage occurred during treatment. This case suggests that for patients with contraindications to standard anticoagulation therapy or those showing no response to such treatment， low-dose defibrotide may be used as an effective and relatively safe alternative treatment regimen.

ObjectiveTo perform metabolic associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD） screening among individuals attending community health institutions， to identify the patients at a low， moderate or high risk of advanced liver fibrosis based on fibrosis-4 index （FIB-4） and liver stiffness measurement （LSM） measured by liver transient elastography， and to implement stratified management. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted among 630 individuals attending Beijing Baizhifang Community Health Service Center from January to July 2024， and they were divided into MAFLD group and non-MAFLD group. According to body mass index （BMI）， the MAFLD group was further divided into lean MAFLD group （BMI<23 kg/m²） and non-lean MAFLD group （BMI≥23 kg/m²）. The above groups were compared in terms of demographic features， laboratory markers， hepatic steatosis， and LSM. Fibrosis risk stratification was performed for MAFLD patients based on FIB-4 and LSM， and a closed-loop management system involving referral to tertiary hospitals and follow-up at community health institutions was implemented. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups， and the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. ResultsThere were 445 individuals （70.6%） in the MAFLD group and 185 individuals （29.4%） in the non-MAFLD group. Compared with the non-MAFLD group， the MAFLD group had a significantly lower proportion of male individuals （χ²=4.299， P<0.05）， a significant reduction in the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （Z=3.484， P<0.05）， and significant increases in body weight （Z=-7.366， P<0.05）， BMI （Z=-9.740， P<0.05）， waist circumference （Z=-6.397， P<0.05）， hip circumference （Z=-6.935， P<0.05）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT） （Z=-2.765， P<0.05）， fasting blood glucose （Z=-3.646， P<0.05）， triglyceride （TG） （Z=-6.569， P<0.05）， total cholesterol （Z=-2.033， P<0.05）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （Z=-2.935， P<0.05）， controlled attenuation parameter （CAP） （Z=-19.784， P<0.05）， and LSM （Z=-5.703， P<0.05）. Within the MAFLD group， there were 124 individuals （27.9%） in the lean MAFLD group and 321 individuals （72.1%） in the non-lean MAFLD group. Compared with the non-lean MAFLD group， the lean MAFLD group had significantly lower body weight （Z=-12.414， P<0.05）， BMI （Z=-16.363， P<0.05）， waist circumference （Z=-7.733， P<0.05）， hip circumference （Z=-8.595， P<0.05）， ALT （Z=-2.835， P<0.05）， aspartate aminotransferase （Z=-1.972， P<0.05）， TG （Z=-2.407， P<0.05）， CAP （Z=-4.429， P<0.05）， degree of steatosis （χ²=16.588， P<0.05）， and LSM （Z=-3.908， P<0.05）. Based on the results of FIB-4 and LSM， 76 patients at a moderate or high risk of liver fibrosis should be referred to a higher-level hospital for further management. ConclusionThe detection rate of MAFLD reaches 70.6% among the individuals attending community health institutions， among whom 76 （17.1%） should be referred to a higher-level hospital. Establishing a liver fibrosis risk stratification and management system based on FIB-4 and LSM among MAFLD individuals in communities provides a practical pathway for chronic disease management and referral system construction in community health institutions.

ObjectiveThis paper aims to study the effects of four weeks of aerobic exercise combined with Anmeidan on the synaptic plasticity marker protein and synaptic ultrastructure of the hippocampus in the model rats with sleep deprivation， thereby investigating the possible mechanism of its action to improve the learning memory of rats with sleep deprivation. Methods50 Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into blank control group （group C）， sleep deprivation group （group M）， aerobic exercise + sleep deprivation group （group MEX）， Anmeidan + sleep deprivation group （group MA， 18.18 g∙kg^-1∙d^-1）， and aerobic exercise + Anmeidan + sleep deprivation group （group MEXA， 18.18 g∙kg^-1∙d^-1）. Anmeidan was administered by gavage in the MA group for four weeks. Aerobic exercise was performed in the MEX group for four weeks. Anmeidan was administered by gavage in the MEXA group in combination with aerobic exercise for four weeks， and sleep deprivation was performed for 72 h by using the multi-platform water environment method. At the end of sleep deprivation， Morris water maze was used to assess the learning and memory ability of rats in each group， and hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe the morphological changes of rats' hippocampal neurons. A transmission electron microscope was used to observe the synaptic ultrastructure of rats' hippocampus. The expression levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor （BDNF）， tyrosine kinase receptor B （TrkB）， cAMP-response element binding protein （CREB）， postsynaptic density-95 （PSD-95）， and synaptophysin （SYN） were detected by Western blot， and the real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect the relative mRNA expression levels of BDNF， TrkB， and CREB in the rats' hippocampus. ResultsCompared with those in group C， rats in group M had significantly longer latency and total swimming distance on the platform （P<0.01） and a significantly reduced number of traversals across the platform as well as the residence time in the target quadrant （P<0.01）. Part of the hippocampal neurons damaged， with a reduced number， disorganized arrangement， fuzzy synaptic gaps， thinning of post-synaptic dense material， and uneven density of synaptic vesicles. The protein expression levels and relative mRNA expression levels of BDNF， TrkB， and CREB were significantly reduced （P<0.01）， and the protein expression levels of PSD-95 and SYN were significantly reduced （P<0.01）. Compared with those in group M， rats in MA， MEX， and MEXA groups showed a decrease in latency to platform and total distance swum， an increase in the number of traversals across the platform and residence time in the target quadrant （P<0.05， P<0.01）， a reduction in hippocampal neuronal damage， a better arrangement， a more intact synaptic structure， a thickening of post-synaptic dense material， a uniform density of synaptic vesicles， and an increase in the protein expression levels and mRNA expression levels of BDNF， TrkB， and CREB （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The protein expressions of PSD-95 and SYN rose （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionAerobic exercise combined with Anmeidan can improve learning memory in rats with sleep deprivation， and its mechanism of action may be related to the modulation of the BDNF/TrkB/CERB signalling pathway， up-regulation of the expression of PSD-95 and SYN， and improvement of synaptic structural damage. The combination of interventions is superior to single exercise or drugs.

Autoimmune hepatitis （AIH） is a chronic inflammatory liver disease. The pathogenesis of AIH remains unclear， but it is mainly autoimmune injury caused by the breakdown of autoimmune tolerance due to the abnormal activation of the immune system， while the specific molecular mechanism remains unknown. Recent studies have shown that abnormal amino acid metabolism plays an important role in the development and progression of AIH. This article reviews the research advances in amino acid metabolic reprogramming in AIH， in order to provide a theoretical basis for amino acid metabolism as a new target for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of AIH.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence,related factors,and career implications of occupational burnout among resident physicians during standardized training in Inner Mongolia.Methods:This cross-sectional study used convenience sampling to enroll 2 891 resident physicians,assessing them with a self-developed general information questionnaire,socio-psychological scales,and a universal burnout inventory.Latent profile analysis clas-sified participants based on burnout dimensions,while logistic regression models examined the factors influencing burnout and their relationship with career choices.Results:Resident physicians were divided into low(59.0％),moderate(28.9％),and high(12.1％)burnout subgroups.Logistic regression showed that,compared to the low burnout group,significant risk factors included professional master's students(OR=0.44),working＞70 hours weekly(OR=0.63),＞4 night shifts monthly(OR=0.66),anxiety(mild OR=0.49;moderate OR=0.26;se-vere OR=0.14),depression(mild OR=0.38;moderate OR=0.24;severe OR=0.11),insomnia(mild OR=0.51;moderate OR=0.44;severe OR=0.38),low social support(OR=0.23),and low happiness index(OR=0.42).Male residents(OR=1.25)were less likely to experience burnout.High burnout residents were 5.11 times more likely to quit the medical profession.Conclusion:Training intensity and socio-psychological factors signifi-cantly contribute resident physicians' burnout levels,with severe burnout increase career attrition.

Objective To summarize the changing prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacterales based on the data of CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 2015 to 2021 for improving antimicrobial treatment in clinical practice.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using a commercial automated susceptibility testing system according to the unified CHINET protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints of the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)M100 31st ed in 2021.Results Over the seven-year period(2015-2021),the overall prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE)was 9.43％(62 342/661 235).The prevalence of CRE strains in Klebsiella pneumoniae,Citrobacter freundii,and Enterobacter cloacae was 22.38％,9.73％,and 8.47％,respectively.The prevalence of CRE strains in Escherichia coli was 1.99％.A few CRE strains were also identified in Salmonella and Shigella.The CRE strains were mainly isolated from respiratory specimens(44.23±2.80)％,followed by blood(20.88±3.40)％and urine(18.40±3.45)％.Intensive care units(ICUs)were the major source of the CRE strains(27.43±5.20)％.CRE strains were resistant to all the β-lactam antibiotics tested and most non-β-lactam antimicrobial agents.The CRE strains were relatively susceptible to tigecycline and polymyxins with low resistance rates.Conclusions The prevalence of CRE strains was increasing from 2015 to 2021.CRE strains were highly resistant to most of the antibacterial drugs used in clinical practice.Clinicians should prescribe antimicrobial agents rationally.Hospitals should strengthen antibiotic stewardship in key clinical settings such as ICUs,and take effective infection control measures to curb CRE outbreak and epidemic in hospitals.

Objective To characterize the changing species distribution and antibiotic resistance profiles of respiratory isolates in hospitals participating in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 2015 to 2021.Methods Commercial automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems and disk diffusion method were used to test the susceptibility of respiratory bacterial isolates to antimicrobial agents following the standardized technical protocol established by the CHINET program.Results A total of 589 746 respiratory isolates were collected from 2015 to 2021.Overall,82.6％of the isolates were Gram-negative bacteria and 17.4％were Gram-positive bacteria.The bacterial isolates from outpatients and inpatients accounted for(6.0±0.9)％and(94.0±0.1)％,respectively.The top microorganisms were Klebsiella spp.,Acinetobacter spp.,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Staphylococcus aureus,Haemophilus spp.,Stenotrophomonas maltophilia,Escherichia coli,and Streptococcus pneumoniae.Each microorganism was isolated from significantly more males than from females(P＜0.05).The overall prevalence of methicillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA)was 39.9％.The prevalence of penicillin-resistant S.pneumoniae was 1.4％.The prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase(ESBL)-producing E.coli and K.pneumoniae was 67.8％and 41.3％,respectively.The overall prevalence of carbapenem-resistant E.coli,K.pneumoniae,Enterobacter cloacae,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and Acinetobacter baumannii was 3.7％,20.8％,9.4％,29.8％,and 73.3％,respectively.The prevalence of β-lactamase was 96.1％in Moraxella catarrhalis and 60.0％in Haemophilus influenzae.The H.influenzae isolates from children(＜18 years)showed significantly higher resistance rates to β-lactam antibiotics than the isolates from adults(P＜0.05).Conclusions Gram-negative bacteria are still predominant in respiratory isolates associated with serious antibiotic resistance.Antimicrobial resistance surveillance should be strengthened in clinical practice to support accurate etiological diagnosis and appropriate antimicrobial therapy based on antimicrobial susceptibility testing results.

Objective:To investigate the value of carotid，radial and podalic artery intima thickness（CIT，RIT，PIT）combined with monocyte to high-density lipoprotein ratio（MHR）in predicting the severity of coronary artery stenosis in patients with premature coronary artery disease（PCAD）.Methods:A total of 80 patients with PCAD who received treatment in Henan Provincial People's Hospital from October 2023 to May 2024 were prospectively recruited，and they were divided into high group（≥41 score，40 cases）and low group（＜41 score，40 cases）according to the median dichotomy of Gensini score. Thirty-four gender，age and body mass index（BMI）-matched healthy volunteers were selected as the control group. The CIT，RIT，PIT，media and intima media thickness of carotid，radial artery and podalic artery（CMT，RMT，PMT，CIMT，RIMT，PIMT）were measured using 24 MHz ultra-high frequency ultrasound probe，and the ratio of intima to media thickness（CIT/CMT，RIT/RMT，PIT/PMT）was calculated. The differences of general clinical data，laboratory indexes and ultrasonic parameters among the three groups were compared. Risk factors affecting the severity of coronary stenosis in PCAD patients were explored by binary logistic regression. Subject working characteristic curves were plotted，area under the curve（AUC）was calculated，and the values of each ultrasound parameter and MHR in the independent and combined diagnosis of the severity of coronary artery stenosis in PCAD patients were evaluated.Results:①There were no statistically significant differences in age，gender，BMI，total cholesterol，CMT，RMT and PMT among the three groups（all P＞0.05）. There were no statistically significant differences in the comparison of smoking，hypertension，diabetes mellitus，systolic blood pressure，diastolic blood pressure，low-density lipoprotein cholesterol，total cholesterol，and triglycerides between the two subgroups of the PCAD（all P>0.05）. ②CIT，CIMT，CIT/CMT，RIT，RIMT，RIT/RMT，PIT，PIMT，PIT/PMT were thickened in the high group compared with the low group，and MHR was higher than in the low group（all P<0.05），the differences in the above parameters remained statistically significant when comparing the PCAD group with the control group（all P<0.05）. ③The AUC values for MHR，CIT，RIT and PIT alone to predict the severity of coronary stenosis in patients with PCAD were 0.781，0.767，0.780 and 0.722，respectively. The combined diagnostic efficiency of the four parameters was better than the independent diagnostic efficiency（AUC = 0.885）. Conclusions:CIT，RIT and PIT are thicker in PCAD patients with high Gensini score and the combination of artery intima thickness and MHR has good efficacy in predicting the severity of coronary artery stenosis in PCAD patients.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of family participation in medication safety of aged patients with multi-morbidity,and to provide references for clinical practice.Methods Based on capability,opportunity and motivation-behavior model,17 family caregivers of aged patients with multi-morbidity at 8 communities of Zhengzhou,Henan Province from September to November 2024 were selected for semi-structured interviews using purposive sampling method.The data were analyzed using directed content analysis.Results Facilitators of family participation behavior included ability factors(strong self-reflection and emotional regulation ability),opportunity factors(family and peer support,professional support from medical staff),motivational factors(par-ticipation in medication safety importance perception,high level of participation self-efficacy,strong sense of responsibility).Barriers of family participation behavior included ability factors(the family caregivers'own aging and disease limitations,and the family caregivers'medication safety management ability is insufficient),opportunity factors(the excessive physical and mental independence of the patients,the multiple role conflict of the family caregivers).Conclusion There are some facilitators and barriers in the process of family participation in medication safety of elderly patients with multi-morbidity.Medical staff should attach importance to family participation experience,adopt targeted strategies to promote family participation in medication safety of elderly patients with multi-morbidity,so as to promote disease recovery.
