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.

Objective:To report the nationwide surveillance results of pathogenic profiles and antimicrobial resistance patterns of Gram-positive bloodstream infections in China in 2023.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-posttive bacteria from blood cultures were collected in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System(BRICS)during January to December 2023. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the dilution method recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI). Statistical analyses were conducted using WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software.Results:A total of 4 385 Gram-positive bacterial isolates were obtained from 60 participating center. The top five pathogens were Staphylococcus aureus( n=1 544,35.2%),coagulase-negative Staphylococci( n=1 441,32.9%), Enterococcus faecium( n=574,13.1%), Enterococcus faecalis( n=385,8.8%),and α-hemolytic Streptococci( n=187,4.3%). The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci(MRCNS)was 26.2%(405/1 544)and 69.8%(1 006/1 441),respectively. Notably,all Staphylococci remained susceptible to glycopeptide or daptomycin. Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated excellent susceptibility(>97.0%)to cephalobiol,rifampicin,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,linezolid,minocycline,tigecycline,and eravacycline. No Enterococcus exhibiting resistance to linezolid were detected. Glycopeptide resistance was uncommon but more frequent in Enterococcus faecium(resistance to vancomycin and teicoplanin:both 1.7%)compared to Enterococcus faecalis(both 0.3%). The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS exhibited significant regional variations across the country( χ2=17.674 and 148.650,respectively,both P<0.001). No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci were detected in central China. Institutional comparison demonstrated higher prevalence of MRSA( χ2=14.111, P<0.001)and MRCNS( χ2=4.828, P=0.028)in provincial hospitals than that in municipal hospitals. Socioeconomic analysis identified elevated detection rates of both MRSA( χ2=18.986, P<0.001)and MRCNS( χ2=4.477, P=0.034)in less developed regions(per capita GDP

Objective:To report the results of bacterial resistant investigation collaborative system(BRICS)on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2023,and provide reference for clinical tretment of bloodstream infections and prevention and control of bacterial resistance.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of BRICS were collected during January 2023 to December 2023. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI). WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period,11 492 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 60 hospitals,of which 10 098(87.9%)were Enterobacterales and 1 394(12.1%)were non-fermentative bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli(50.0%), Klebsiella pneumoniae(26.1%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa(5.1%), Acinetobacter baumannii complex(5.0%)and Enterobacter cloacae complex(4.1%). The ESBL-producing rates in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirablilis were 46.8%(2 685/5 741),18.3%(549/2 999)and 44.0%(77/175),respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli(CREC)and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)were 1.3%(76/5 741)and 15.0%(450/2 999);32.9%(25/76)and 78.0%(351/450)of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to ceftazidime/avibactam combination,respectively. 94.7%(72/76)and 90.2%(406/450)of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to aztreonam/avibactam combination. Furthermore,57.9%(44/76)and 79.1%(356/450)were sensitive to imipenem/relebactam combination. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)complex was 64.6%(370/573),while more than 80.0% of CRAB complex was sensitive to tigecycline,eravacycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)was 17.0%(99/581). There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of important Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions in China,with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CREC,CRKP,CRPA and CRAB complex( χ2=10.6,28.6,10.8 and 19.3, P<0.05). The prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli, CREC,CRAB complex and CRKP were higher in provincial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals( χ2=12.5,9.8,12.7 and 57.8,all P<0.01). Conclusions:Gram-negative bacteria are the main pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China,and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top,while the trend of Klebsiella pneumoniae increases continuously with time. CRKP infection shows a slow upward trend,CREC infecton maintains a low prevalence level,and CRAB complex infection continues to exhibit a high prevalence rate. The composition and resistance patterns of pathogens causing bloodstream infections vary to some extent across different regions and levels of hospitals in China.

AIM: To explore the therapeutic effect of oral Xuefu Zhuyu Pill combined with intravitreal injection of aflibercept in the treatment of retinal vein occlusion(RVO).METHODS: A total of 80 patients(80 eyes)with RVO admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to March 2024 were prospectively selected. According to the treatment method, they were divided into a control group of 40 patients treated with intravitreal injection of aflibercept, and an observation group of 40 patients treated with oral Xuefu Zhuyu Pill combined with intravitreal injection of aflibercept. The efficacy, TCM syndrome score, retinal microcirculation parameters, macular edema(ME), and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups of patients in the treatment of RVO.RESULTS: All patients have completed follow-up. The clinical effective rate of the observation group after treatment was 95%, obviously higher than that of the control group(80%; χ2=4.114, P=0.043). After treatment for 3 mo, the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores, foveal avascular area(FAZ)area, FAZ circumference, macular central retinal thickness, and neovascularization leakage area of both groups decreased, the overall blood flow density of the superficial capillary plexus(SCP)and deep capillary plexuses(DCP)increased, and the observation group showed better results than the control group(all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the occurrence of adverse reactions between the two groups during the treatment period(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Oral administration of Xuefu Zhuyu Pill combined with intravitreal injection of aflibercept in the treatment of RVO can improve retinal microcirculation, enhance vision, restore ocular blood circulation, improve bleeding, promote ME absorption, and improve clinical efficacy.

Objective:To explore the morphological characteristics of tumor cells and the key diagnostic points of immunocytochemistry in neoplastic serous effusions.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. A total of 522 samples which were ultimately diagnosed as neoplastic serous effusions by immunocytochemistry were collected in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital from January 2019 to December 2023. The microscopic morphological characteristics of tumor cells in the samples were analyzed, and the diagnostic points of immunocytochemistry and the differential diagnostic points between rare tumors and adenocarcinoma were summarized.Results:Among the 522 samples of neoplastic serous effusion, there were 305 cases of pleural effusion, 178 cases of abdominal effusion, and 39 cases of pericardial effusion. Immunocytochemical diagnosis revealed 380 cases of adenocarcinoma [198 cases (52.1%) of pleural effusion, 155 cases (40.8%) of peritoneal effusion, and 27 cases (7.1%) of pericardial effusion], 55 cases of small cell carcinoma [47 cases (85.5%) of pleural effusion, 1 case (1.8%) of peritoneal effusion, and 7 cases (12.7%) of pericardial effusion], 23 cases of squamous cell carcinoma [18 cases (78.3%) of pleural effusion, 4 cases (17.4%) of peritoneal effusion, and 1 case (4.3%) of pericardial effusion], 5 cases of large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (4 cases of pleural effusion and 1 case of pericardial effusion), and 31 cases of lymphoma [21 cases (67.7%) of pleural effusion, 7 cases (22.6%) of peritoneal effusion, and 3 cases (9.7%) of pericardial effusion], 20 cases of malignant mesothelioma [17 cases (85.0%) of pleural effusion and 3 cases (15.0%) of peritoneal effusion], 6 cases of ovarian borderline tumors (all of which were peritoneal effusions), and 2 cases of yolk sac tumors (both of which were peritoneal effusions). Under the microscope, the morphological characteristics of tumor cells in squamous cell carcinoma, large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, lymphoma, malignant mesothelioma, ovarian borderline tumor, and yolk sac tumor were similar to those of adenocarcinoma cells, making them prone to misdiagnosis as adenocarcinoma. Immunocytochemical examination was necessary for the clear diagnosis.Conclusions:Adenocarcinoma accounts for the vast majority of neoplastic serous effusions, while the cell morphologies of other rare tumors overlap with adenocarcinoma. Careful observation and combination with clinical data and immunocytochemical examination results of patients are necessary for making the correct diagnosis.
