Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is one of the most effective revascularization treatments for coronary heart disease. Secondary prevention strategies, which rely on antiplatelet and lipid-lowering drugs, are crucial after CABG to ensure the durability of revascularization treatment effects and prevent adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in the medium to long term. Previous research conducted by Professor Zhao Qiang's team from Ruijin Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, known as the DACAB study, indicated that dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT, specifically ticagrelor+aspirin) after CABG can enhance venous graft patency. However, it remains uncertain whether DAPT can further improve the medium to long-term clinical outcomes of CABG patients. Recently, the team reported the medium to long-term follow-up results of the DACAB study, termed the DACAB-FE study, finding that DAPT administered after CABG can reduce the incidence of major cardiovascular events over five years and improve patients' medium to long-term clinical outcomes. This article will interpret the methodological highlights and significant clinical implications of the DACAB-FE study.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of SPOT (GI Supply, USA), a new carbon-based permanent marker approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), in the endoscopic marking for gastrointestinal lesions.Methods:A total of 115 patients with gastrointestinal lesions who underwent endoscopic treatment or surgery in Beijing Friendship Hospital or Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital from April 2019 to November 2019 were enrolled in the study. SPOT was used to mark the lesions, and marking points were found during endoscopic treatment or surgery to calculate the effective marking rate by single-group target value method. Adverse events after marking were recorded, and the changes of blood routine test, liver and kidney functions before and after marking were compared.Results:The effective rate of endoscopic marking with SPOT was 99.13% (114/115). The longest marking time was 57 days. There was no puncture of intestinal wall or injection into abdominal cavity during the marking process. One patient developed mild fever after marking. The incidence of adverse events was 23.48% (27/115), which were all unrelated to the test equipment. There was no significant difference in blood routine tests or liver and kidney functions before and after marking ( P>0.05). Conclusion:SPOT produced by GI Supply can effectively mark gastrointestinal lesions without serious adverse events, which meets the requirements of clinical use.

Objective:To quantitatively analyze the clinical and drug resistance feature of diarrhea of adults patients in 2016 and 2019 induced by the Escherichia coli (diarrheagenic Escherichia coli, DEC), and to reveal the difference of DEC′s epidemiological features of before and after measuring to strengthen food hygiene and safety in Beijing. Methods:A total number of 3 408 patients with food-borne adult diarrhea were received diagnosis and treatment in the intestinal clinic department of Beijing Tongren Hospital in 2016 and 2019.There were 1 926 patients in 2016 and 1 482 in 2019, respectively. The clinical information of patient were entered into the intestinal early warning system and were carefully preserved. The clinical specimens (the stool samples) were isolated and the DECs were identified by culturing. The colony of DECs was identified by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Five pathogenic types of Escherichia coli were classified by multiplex PCR methods. The drug-susceptibility test was performed according to the standards of the American Society for Clinical and Laboratory Standardization in 2019. The categorical data were analyzed by χ 2 test or Fisher′s exact test to verify the statistical difference. Results:A total number of 581 DECs strains were detected in 3 408 specimens. Among the subtypes of E Coli, the Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) accounted for 53.36% (310/581), and Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) was detected. In 2016, the total detection rate of DEC was 14.54% (280/1 926), enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) accounted for 18.21% (51/280), and ETEC accounted for 71.79% (173/280). In 2019, the total detection rate of DEC was 20.31% (301/1 482), EAEC accounted for 41.23% (116/301), and ETEC accounted for 48.93% (137/301). Compared with 2016, the detection rate of EAEC in 2019 increased significantly (χ2=29.26, P<0.001), followed by EPEC (χ2=9.37, P=0.002), and ETEC decreased (χ2=15.43, P<0.001). Compared with other pathogenic types, EAEC can easily cause nausea(χ2=32.72, P<0.001).The red blood cells(χ2=16.44, P=0.001) or the white blood cells (χ2=26.82, P<0.001) could be easily observed in stool specimens of patients infected with enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC). The resistance rates of EIEC to ampicillin, ampicillin/sulbactam and gentamicin were 80.95% (17/21), 66.67% (14/21) and 57.14% (12/21), respectively. Three strains of EAEC resistant to carbapenem antimicrobials were discovered in 2019 and of which two strains were resistant to ertapenem and imipenem, and the other one strain was only resistant to ertapenem. The whole genomic sequencing showed that there are multiple resistance mechanisms: including the mainly drug-resistant nodular cell differentiation family efflux pump, penicillin binding site mutation, and New Delhi metal-β-lactamase 5 production. Conclusions:The detection rate of DECs in adult patients with food-borne diarrhea is high, and the foremost subtype of DECs is ETEC. Compared with 2016, the detection rates of ETEC in clinical specimens decreased in 2019, and the detection rate of EAEC increased significantly, respectively. In 2019, a carbapenem-resistant antibacterial drug-resistant Escherichia coli strain was isolated. It is of great significance to focus on the biological characteristics and epidemiological changes of DEC.

Objective:To explore and evaluate a appropriate suitable method for detection of Campylobacter and antibiotic sensitivity test for foodborne diarrhea in clinical laboratories. Methods:Pre-experiment:a total number of 400 fecal samples of patients with foodborne diarrhea were prospectively collected from the intestinal disease clinic of Beijing Tongren Hospital from September 2017 to January 2018. Double-hole filtration culture method and modified cefoperazone charcoal deoxycholate (CCD) agar culture method were used for fecal culture in micro-aerobic environment for 48 hours, and then suspicious colonies were identified by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Meanwhile, C. jejuni and C. coli were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR). Large sample verification: 2 062 fecal samples of patients with foodborne diarrhea in three hospitals of different levels in different areas of Beijing were collected for qPCR detection and culture from April 2018 to March 2019. The antimicrobial sensitivity test (AST) of C. jejuni and C. coli was performed according to the disk diffusion method and agar dilution method recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute and National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System for Enteric Bacteria. The results of the three detection methods and the consistency of the two antibiotic sensitivity tests were compared. Results:In the pre-experiment, the positive rates of Campylobacter ( jejuni/coli) detected of qPCR, double-hole filtration culture and modified CCD agar culture were 9.0% (36/400), 5.0% (20/400)and 3.5% (14/400), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). The samples with negative result of qPCR were negative by both culture methods. The total positive rates of Campylobacter detected by qPCR was 8.1% (168/ 2 062)including 7.0% (144/2 062) for C. jejuni and 1.2% (24/2 062) for C. coli. The samples with positive qPCR results were cultured by double-hole filtration culture method and the positive rate was 61.9%(104/168), among which, the positive rate of C. jejuni and C. coli were 58.3%(84/144) and 83.3%(20/24) respectively, which was not significantly different from the detection rate and culture positive rate in the pre-test ( P>0.1). The resistance rates of C. jejuni and C. coli to ciprofloxacin were 94.0%(94/100) and 100.0%(24/24) and to erythromycin were 6.0%(6/100) and 33.3%(8/24). The results from two antibiotic sensitivity test methods were consistent (Kappa>0.75). Conclusions:qPCR is rapid, sensitive and easy to operate, so it is suitable for routine development in clinical laboratories. The double-hole filtration culture method is beneficial to the acquisition of strains and is essential for the further study of Campylobacter. There was no significant difference between agar dilution method and disk diffusion method in antibiotic sensitivity test. Campylobacter showed a very high resistance rate to quinolones, which was no longer suitable for the treatment of Campylobacter foodborne diarrhea in Beijing area. Macrocyclic lipid antibiotics should be preferred.

Strain-resource engineering is often considered as an important infrastructure of microbiology related research and industry. The western developed countries took the lead in establishing the classical microbial resource utilization method, and continuously improved the preservation system, species annotation technology and global sharing mechanism, which realized the expansion and reserve of biological resources since end of the 19th century. The rich and diversified germplasm resources, standard strains and production strains not only have important economic values, but also maintain the advantages of scientific research, bioeconomy (such as antimicrobial agents, vaccines, detection reagent development and standard development, etc.) and national security. Although there has been a lot of progress in related research in recent years, compared with developed countries, there is still a big gap in related fields in China. The investment and top-level design in this area lag far behind the western developed countries, and it is not commensurate with the current level of economic and social development in my country. Drawing lessons from the practice of WFCC and WDCM (World Data Center for Microorganisms, Global microbial data Center, affiliated to WFCC), for the purpose of collecting new clinical species/strains, this paper puts forward some suggestions on the identification, preservation and upload system of isolates.

Objective ::To investigate the role of trehalose in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury and its underlying mechanisms.Methods:C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into no-ischemia group, ischemia-reperfusion group, trehalose-treated group and normal saline control group. After ischemia for 90 minutes, reperfusion immediately or 6h, blood and liver tissues were collected, and serum was separated. The liver function parameters of ALT, AST, the inflammatory factors of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-2, and the pathological changes of liver were detected to study the role of trehalose during hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury. Hypoxia-reoxygenation cell model was established by AML12 mouse hepatocyte line, and divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group was divided into low dose group and high dose group according to the concentration of trehalose administrated. And the control group had no use of trehalose. The level of apoptosis was measured to study the effect of trehalose on apoptosis induced by hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury with flow cytometry. Western blot was utilized for detecting the levels of Caspase-3, Cleaved Caspase-3 and Bcl-2 protein to understand the molecular mechanisms of trehalose in apoptosis during hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury.Results:In vivo animal experiments showed that liver function and such inflammatory factors as ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-2 increased in ischemia-reperfusion group after hepatic ischemia-reperfusion ( P<0.05), and liver tissue became necrotic. After a treatment of trehalose, the levels of ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-2 were lower than those of normalsaline control group and the area of liver tissue necrosis also decreased ( P<0.05). In vitro cell experiments showed that the apoptosis level of hepatocytes in the experimental group decreased compared with the control group.And the level of activated pro-apoptotic protein Cleaved Caspase-3 decreased, the level of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 increased. Conclusions:Trehalose has protective effects on hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury in vivo and in vitro. The mechanism may be involved in inhibiting inflammation induced by hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury, suppressing the activation of Caspase-3 and promoting the expression of Bcl-2, thus played a protective role by extenuation of hepatocyteapoptosis.
