Methods:
Nine C. jejuni isolates from meat and meat products in 2020 were subjected to whole genome sequencing, and the minimum inhibitory concentration was measured with the agar dilution method. MLST of C. jejuni isolates was performed with the microbial resistance mechanism traceability reference database and analysis system.
Results:
Six drug-resistant C. jejuni isolates were detected, and there were four multidrug-resistant isolates. There were six C. jejuni isolates resistant to tetracycline, five isolates resistant to nalidixic acid, four isolates resistant to ciprofloxacin, two isolates resistant to florfenicol, one isolate resistant to gentamicin and one isolate resistant to streptomycin. Nine C. jejuni isolates showed sensitive to azithromycin, chloramphenicol and clindamycin. MLST identified six ST types in nine C. jejuni isolates, with ST45 and ST2274 as the predominant type, and detected one isolate with unclassified ST type. Phylogenetic analysis showed that KW028 and KW029 of ST45 type were closely related and had high homology, and KW040 and KW042 of ST2274 type were closely related with high homology, while KW007 of ST6701 type was closely related to KW040 and KW042 of ST2274 type, with only one pgm housekeeper gene in difference.
Conclusions
High resistance to tetracycline, nalidixic acid and ciprofloxacin was detected in nine C. jejuni isolates from meat and meat products, and ST45 and ST2274 were predominant ST types of C. jejuni.

Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) was one of the most difficult infertile diseases which was usually defined as consecutive still birth for more than three times during the first 20 weeks of gestation. Various factors and pathogeneses were thought to play a role in RSA. Recent studies had indicated that the disorders of blood vessel growth and the secondary abnormal blood perfusion may contribute to the occurrence of RSA. However, blood vessel growth was linked with the regulation of angiogenesis related factors. To provide references for the clinical prevention and treatment, the purpose of this paper was to evaluate the association between solubility vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1(sflt-1), thrombospondin 1(TSP-1) and ovary, endometrial abnormal blood perfusion in cases of RSA.
