Objective To investigate the detection rate,epidemiology and resistance mechanism of methicil-lin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)in a hospital in recent 5 years.Methods A total of 762 strains of non repetitive Staphylococcus aureus detected from 2016 to 2020 in a hospital were collected retrospectively.Methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus(MSSA)was 392 strains(MSSA group)and 370 strains caused by MRSA(MRSA group),and 95 strains of MRSA isolated in 2020 were further used for resistance mechanism.Staphylococcus aureus was identified and tested for drug sensitivity by Vitek 2 automatic microbial system.Molecular epidemiological typing was determined by multilocus sequence typing.The biofilm formation was performed by crystal violet staining.PCR amplification was used to detect drug resistance genes,virulence genes and biofilm related genes,and logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the independent risk factors of its occurrence.Results The detection rate of MRSA in past five years was 48.56％,mainly was from pus samples and secretion samples(38.38％,33.51％respectively).MRSA was found in the general sur-gery(18.65％)and otorhinolaryngology(12.70％).ST88 was the most common multilocus sequence typing(37.89％),and followed by ST951(24.21％).Moderate biofilm formation was the most common,accounting for 74.73％.Multivariate regression analysis showed that compared with MSSA group,hypoproteinemia,en-docrine system diseases,wound infection and history of antibiotic use within six months were the independent risk factors for infection in MRSA group.Compared with the control group,hospital transfer,wound infection and tumor were independent risk factors for infection in MRSA group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The detection rate of MRSA in a hospital is high,and the carrying rate of various drug-resistant genes is high.The hospital should pay attention to the prevalence of MRSA and related risk factors,so as to prevent it early.

Objective:To analyze the multiple locus variable number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) genotype polymorphism of Bacillus (B.) anthracis and establish a MLVA genotype database of B. anthracis in China. Methods:B. anthracis strains isolated from different sources in China since 1947 were collected. Genotype identification was carried out using the MLVA15 genotyping protocol based on 15 variable number tandem repeat loci. The genotypes were uniformly numbered and named. The distribution characteristics of the MLVA genotypes of strains were analyzed. Software Bionumerics was used to construct clustering diagrams to analyze the genetic relationships. Results:The MLVA15 clustering analysis subdivided the isolates into 4 major groups and 91 genotypes, 54 of which were unique to China. The genotypes from MLVA15-CHN1 to MLVA15-CHN6 were widely distributed throughout China and in all eras, while other genotypes were restricted to certain regions or eras.Conclusions:This study established a MLVA genotype database of B. anthracis, which provides basis for the understanding of MLVA genetic polymorphisms and the control and molecular source tracing of the anthrax outbreaks in China.

Objective:To explore the clinical application of preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disorders (PGT-M) in an unique case with Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) type 2+ 0.Methods:A special SMA family presented at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University on October 19, 2020 was selected as the study subject. Multiple ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) and molecular tagging linkage analysis were carried out to identify the SMN1 genotype of the couple and their fetus. Subsequently, next-generation sequencing (NGS), molecular tagging linkage analysis, and chromosomal microarray analysis were employed to determine the haplotypes and validate the result of PGT-M on the 11 embryos derived for the couple. Results:The female partner was identified as a carrier of the rare SMN1[2+ 0] variant, and prenatal diagnosis confirmed the fetus to be affected by SMA. Ultimately, PGT-M has successfully selected four embryos free from the pathogenic SMN1 variants and X chromosome deletion. Conclusion:PGT-M can effectively prevent the transmission of rare genetic variants such as the SMA 2+ 0 subtype in the families. Above finding has provided guidance for genetic counseling and family planning for the couple.

Objective To establish a PCR-based capillary electrophoresis(PCR/CE)to detect Survival Motor Neuron 1(SMN1)and Survival Motor Neuron 2(SMN2)genes and to evaluate its performance.Methods PCR/CE and Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification(MLPA)for SMA gene diagnosis were used to blindly test the samples in sync.The performance of PCR/CE was assessed using MLPA results as the standard.Results A total of 336 samples were included in this study,consisting of 50 homozygous deletion types(14.9%),65 heterozygous deletion types(19.3%),and 221 non-deletion types(65.8%).The results of PCR/CE for detect-ing SMN1 and SMN2 copy numbers(0,1,2,3,≥4)were in complete agreement with the results of the MLPA.Conclusions PCR/CE for gene testing related to SMA could accurately detect copy numbers of exon 7 and exon 8 of the SMN1 and SMN2 genes(0,1,2,3,≥4).

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common pathological type of lung cancer. The systemic antitumor therapy of advanced NSCLC has undergone renovations of chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy, which results in greatly improved survival for patients with advanced NSCLC. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), especially targeting programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), has changed the treatment paradigm of NSCLC. ICIs have become the standard treatment for advanced NSCLC without epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) mutation or anaplastic lymphomakinase(ALK) translocation in the first- or second-line setting, and for locally advanced NSCLC following concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy. ICIs are also promising in adjuvant/neoadjuvant therapy. More and more ICIs have been approved domestically for the treatment of NSCLC. Led by the NSCLC expert committee of Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO), this consensus was developed and updated based on thoroughly reviewing domestic and foreign literatures, clinical trial data, systematic reviews, experts' discussion and the consensus(2019 version). This consensus will aid domestic clinicians in the treatment of NSCLC with ICIs.

Objective:To investigate the effects of establishment of a trauma center on the therapeutic efficacy for patients with severe multiple injuries.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted in the patients who had been treated at The Second Affiliated Hospital, University of South China for severe multiple injuries from October 2015 to September 2019. They were assigned into 2 groups. The study group included 102 patients who had been treated after establishment of our trauma center (from October 2017 to September 2019) while the control group 126 patients who had been treated before establishment of our trauma center (from October 2015 to September 2017). The 2 groups were compared in terms of time for emergency treatment (from admission to emergency surgery or ICU), ICU stay, hospital stay, total medical costs and mortality.Results:There was a significant difference between the 2 groups in time for emergency treatment [51 (47, 57) min for the study group versus 97 (87, 107) min for the control group] ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in ICU stay [4 (1.8, 9.3) d versus 4 (2.0, 10.0) d], hospital stay [25.5 (15.8, 39.0) d versus 21.5 (12.8, 41.5) d], or total medical costs [￥41,259.0 yuan (￥26,950 yuan, ￥81,599 yuan)] ( P>0.05). There was a significant difference between the 2 groups in mortality [12.7% (13/102) for the study group versus 24.6% (31/126) for the control group] ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Establishment of a trauma center can effectively shorten time for emergency treatment, improve treatment efficacy and reduce mortality for patients with severe multiple injuries.

Cardio-cerebrovascular disease (CCVD) is a major comorbidity of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, the clinical characteristics and outcomes remain unclear. In this study, 102 cases of COVID-19 from January 22, 2020 to March 26, 2020 in Xixi Hospital of Hangzhou were included. Twenty cases had pre-existing CCVD. Results showed that compared with non-CCVD patients, those with CCVD are more likely to develop severe disease (15% versus 1%), and the proportion of pneumonia severity index grade IV was significantly higher (25% versus 3.6%). Computed tomography images demonstrated that the proportion of multiple lobe lesion involvement was significantly higher in the CCVD group than in the non-CCVD group (90% versus 63.4%). Compared with non-CCVD group, the levels of C-reactive protein, fibrinogen, D-dimer, and serum amyloid-A were higher, whereas the total protein and arterial partial PaO

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features and treatment strategies of intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 40 patients with IPNB who were admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from August 2000 to April 2020 were collected. There were 19 males and 21 females,aged (60±14) years. Patients underwent preoperative imaging examination and blood test for evaluation of tumor location, range and resectability. The treatment strategies of patients depended on preoperative examination and their own willingness. Observation indicators: (1) preoperative examinations and tests; (2) treatment; (3) pathological examination; (4) follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient examination, telephone interview and online diagnosis was performed to detect tumor recurrence and survival of patients up to April 2021. Count data were represented as absolute numbers and percentages. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the cumulative survival rate and draw survivla curve. Results:(1) Preoperative examinations and tests: 40 patients received preoperative imaging examination and blood test. Of 40 patients, 33 cases underwent abdominal ultrasonography, 31 cases underwent abdominal computed tomography (CT) examina-tion, 21 cases underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), 15 cases underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), 8 cases underwent position emission tomography CT examination, 6 cases underwent endoscopic ultrasonography; some patients underwent multiple examinations. The main imaging features of IPNB were bile duct dilatation, and intraluminal tumor. Enhanced CT scan showed tumor reinforcement. Preoperative blood tests showed of the 40 patients, 21 cases with abnormal liver function, 17 cases with increased bilirubin, 9 cases with increased carcinoembryonic antigen, and 24 cases with increased CA19-9. (2) Treatment: 35 of 40 patients underwent surgery, 5 patients underwent ERCP and biopsy and didn′t undergo surgery based on their willings. Of 35 patients with surgeries,20 cases underwent hemihepatectomy or lobectomy, 8 cases underwent pancreatico-duodenectomy, 7 cases underwent bile duct tumor resection. The operation time was (262±91)minutes, and volume of intraoperative blood loss was 300 mL(range, 50?2 000 mL). Postopera-tive complications occurred in 6 of 35 patients, including 3 cases with Grade Ⅰ complications and 3 cases with Grade Ⅱ complication according to Clavien-Dindo classi-fication system. (3) Pathological examination: 40 patients were diagnosed as IPNB by pathological examinations. There were 19 and 21 patients with extrahepatic and intrahepatic lesions, respectively. There were 20 benign lesions (15 cases of low or intermediate-grade intraepithelial neoplasia and 5 cases of high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia) and 20 malignant lesions of invasive carcinoma. There were 18 cases with mucus secretion and 22 cases without mucus secretion or information. Five of 35 patients with surgeries had positive margin and the rest of 30 patients had negative margin. A total of 154 lymph nodes were dissected in 21 patients, including 3 positive lymph nodes. (4) Follow-up: 35 of 40 patients were followed up for (53±35)months. Seventeen of 35 patients survived without tumor, and 3 patients survived with tumor of which the time to tumor recurrence were 12, 17, 37 months. Fifteen patients died, with the time interval to death of (30±19)months. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year cumulative survival rates of 35 patients were 88.6%, 73.6%, and 50.7%, respectively.Conclusions:IPNB is rare, with the main imaging features as bile duct dilatation, and intraluminal tumor. The tumor is reinforce-ment after enhanced scan. Surgery is the main treatment for IPNB and lymph node metastasis is rare.

Objective:To explore the effects of painting psychology training assisted with antipsychotics on recovery effects of patients with schizophrenia during convalescence.Methods:A total of 160 patients with schizophrenia in Kailuan Mental Health Center from September 2018 to August 2019 during convalescence were randomly divided into painting group and control group, with 80 cases in each group. The control group was treated with antipsychotics, and painting group was given painting psychology training assisted with antipsychotics. At 12 weeks of treatment, the changes of mental symptoms, cognitive function, and intelligence and behaviors were compared between the two groups.Results:After treatment, the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) negative symptom score, general psychopathological symptom score and PANSS total score in painting group were significantly lower than those in control group ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in PANSS positive symptom score between the two groups ( P>0.05). The scores of number of persistent responses, number of persistent errors, number of completed classifications, number of correct responses, percentage of conceptual level responses of Wsiconsin card sorting test (WCST) scale were significantly better than those in control group ( P<0.05). The mini-mental state examination (MMSE) score in painting group was significantly higher than that in control group ( P<0.05), and the scores of positive factors of personal cleanliness, social interest and social ability and negative factors of depression, delay, irritability and psychiatric performance of nurse observation scale for inpatient evaluation (NOISE-30) scale were significantly better than those in control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Painting psychology training assisted with antipsychotics can significantly improve the negative symptoms of patients with schizophrenia during convalescence, enhance cognitive function, and promote the recovery of intelligence and behaviors of patients.

Objective:To analyze the status of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in pregnant women in Taizhou City in recent years and the effect of immunization management of hepatitis B vaccine project on the status.Methods:The pregnant women hospitalized in Taizhou People′s Hospital, Taizhou Second People′s Hospital, Taizhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital and Taixing People′s Hospital from 2014 to 2017 were enrolled. According to the HBV serological results, the pregnant women were divided into non-immune population, successful immunization population, previous HBV infection population, HBV infection population and atypical manifestation population. The year of immunization management for the implementation of the hepatitis B vaccine plan was 1992. The HBV infection status of the pregnant women was analyzed based on the year of delivery and vaccination status, respectively. Chi-square test and trend chi-square test were used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 31 449 cases were included in this study, of which 13 203 (41.98%) were non-immunized, 10 123 (32.19%) were successfully immunized, 6 409 (20.38%) were previous HBV infected, 1 566(4.98%) were HBV infected, and 148(0.47%) cases were atypical manifestation. The negative rate of all HBV serological markers of pregnant women born before 1992 and after 1992 (including 1992) were 42.07%(10 794/25 657) and 41.59%(2 409/5 792), respectively, with no statistically significant difference ( χ2=0.44, P=0.51). The hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) positive rate of pregnant women born before 1992 was 28.95%(7 428/25 657), which was lower than 46.53%(2 695/5 792) of pregnant women born after 1992 (including 1992). The difference was statistically significant ( χ2=668.94, P<0.01), and showed an upward trend year by year ( χ2=602.11, P<0.01). The hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc) positive rate of pregnant women born after 1992 (including 1992) was 8.81%(510/5 792), which was lower than 22.99%(5 899/25 657) of pregnant women born before 1992, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=589.10, P<0.01), and the overall trend was declining year by year ( χ2=478.72, P<0.01). The hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive rate of pregnant women born before 1992 was 5.46%(1 402/25 657), which was higher than 2.83%(164/5 792) of pregnant women born after 1992 (including 1992), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 =69.23, P <0.01), and the overall trend was decreasing ( χ2=49.25, P<0.01). Among pregnant women infected with HBV, the negative rate of hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) was 78.16%(1 224/1 566). Conclusions:Pregnant women with HBV infection in Taizhou City are mainly HBeAg negative. Hepatitis B vaccine immunization management significantly reduces the HBsAg positive rate and anti-HBc positive rate of pregnant women, and increases the positive rate of anti-HBs, while the rate of all HBV serum marker negative is not significantly decreased. Horizontal transmission may still be a risk factor for HBV present and previous infections.
