Objective To investigate the dynamic characteristic changes of gastrointestinal mucosa and its relationship with disease progression in rats with acute cerebral infarction. Methods Fifty-six male Wistar rats were selected as the study subjects, and they were divided into three groups: normal control, sham operation and cerebral infarction model groups by random number table method. The middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was prepared by the modified Longa thread embolic method. The levels of gastrin (GAS) were monitored in each group after modeling for 24 hours, 4 days and 7 days; after the rats were killed, the sections of gastric antrum and small intestine were taken and stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining method, the histopathological changes of gastric and small intestinal mucosa were observed under light microscope, in the mean time the gastric and small intestinal mucosal pathological scores were also performed, and the differences of pathological scores among the three groups were compared. Results There were no statistical significant differences in GAS, gastrointestinal mucosa and small intestinal mucosal pathological scores between the normal control group and sham operation group at each time point (all P > 0.05); the GAS level in cerebral infarction model group was decreased gradually with time prolongation, reaching the lowest level 7 days after modeling, but the GAS level in cerebral infarction model group was significantly higher than that in normal group and shamoperation group (ng/L: 205.02±7.68 vs. 130.51±8.03, 145.29±7.68, both P < 0.05). The pathological scores of gastrointestinal mucosa and small intestinal mucosa in the cerebral infarction model group were increased first and then decreased with time prolongation, peaked on 4th day and decreased significantly on 7th day, the pathological scores of gastrointestinal mucosa and small intestinal mucosa in the cerebral infarction model group at each time point were significantly higher than those in the normal control group and sham-operated group (gastric mucosal pathological score: 82.50±2.95 vs. 21.38±1.57, 36.10±3.41; small intestinal mucosal pathological score: 62.00±2.78 vs. 18.25±1.39, 25.55±1.75, all P < 0.05). Under light microscopy, the normal control group showed complete normal morphological appearance, normal structure, orderly arrangement of villi and no infiltration of inflammatory cells; in shamoperation group, inflammatory cells infiltrated the lamina propria at each time point, and there were villi slightly uneven, enlarged stroma, congestion, edema occasionally seen and no obvious ulcer; in cerebral infarction model group, the various layers of gastrointestinal mucosal were not very clear, the glands were arranged irregularly and the capillaries dilated, and in part of tissues, congestion, hemorrhage, edema and inflammatory cell infiltration were seen obviously. Conclusion The injury of gastrointestinal mucosa in acute stage of cerebral infarction should be related to the stress stimulation and disease progress of cerebral infarction itself, not due to the abnormal secretion of GAS.

Objective:
To evaluate the clinical effect of clear aligners in the anterior region in non-extraction cases by establishing a three-dimensional model of crown-root fusion to guide clinical application.
Methods:
Eleven patients visiting the orthodontic department of Xuzhou Stomatological Hospital from December 2020 to December 2021 were collected, and the orthodontic plan was designed using Maestro 3D Dental Studio scheduling software to obtain the expected three-dimensional model of the patient's orthodontic treatment result. CBCT, intraoral scan, and 3D reconstruction software were used to create a postoperative model of the patient. The crown and root data were aligned in Geomagic Studio 2014, and differences in torque and axial inclination between the actual model after treatment and the predicted model of the anterior teeth before treatment were compared in 3-matic.
Results:
The actual torque angles of the anterior teeth were all smaller than the predicted angles before treatment, with the highest realization rate of 77.55% for lateral incisors and the lowest of 60.70% for central incisors; the actual axial inclination angles of the anterior teeth were also smaller than the predicted angles before treatment, with the highest realization rate of 81.49% for central incisors and the lowest of 74.95% for cuspids.
Conclusion
A digital model of crown-root integration based on a combination of 3D reconstruction and intraoral scanning techniques is advantageous in assessing the efficacy of clear aligners. In non-extraction cases with clear aligner, the efficiency of movement is higher for small areas of the anterior region.

ObjectiveBased on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS), network pharmacology and pharmacodynamics, to investigate the pharmacodynamic material basis and mechanism of Hei Xiaoyaosan in improving learning and memory ability of insomnia rats. MethodUPLC-Q-TOF-MS was used to characterize the chemical constituents of Hei Xiaoyaosan. Network pharmacology was applied to construct the network of active ingredients-intersecting targets-pathways, and molecular docking was performed on key ingredients and core targets. Sixty 8-week-old male SD rats were selected and randomly divided into blank group, model group, Hei Xiaoyaosan low, medium, and high dose groups(3.82, 7.65, 15.30 g·kg-1), and zolpidem tartrate group(0.5 mg·kg-1), with 10 rats in each group. Except for the blank group, the insomnia model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of p-chlorophenylalanine(PCPA) for 4 consecutive days. Rats in each dosing group were administered the corresponding dose by gavage, once a day for 14 consecutive days. Morris water maze test was utilized to assess the learning and memory ability of rats, transmission electron microscopy was employed to examine the ultrastructure of hippocampal synapses, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was conducted to analyze the levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT), interleukin-6(IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) in hippocampal tissues, and Western blot was performed to detect the expression levels of tumor suppressor protein p53(TP53), rat sarcoma virus(RAS), epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR), cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP)-response element binding protein(CREB) binding protein(CREBBP), glycogen synthase kinase-3β(GSK-3β), protein kinase B1(Akt1), nitric oxide synthase 1(NOS1), phosphorylated(p)-Akt1, and p-GSK-3β in hippocampal tissues. Additionally, real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(Real-time PCR) was used to assess the mRNA expression levels of TP53, RAS, EGFR, CREBBP, GSK-3β, Akt1 and NOS1. ResultA total of 176 components were identified in Hei Xiaoyaosan, mainly flavonoids, triterpene saponins, phenylpropanoids and other compounds. Network pharmacological analysis revealed that TP53, V-Ha-Ras Harvey Rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog(HRAS), neuroblastoma sarcoma viral oncogene homolog(NRAS), EGFR, CREBBP, GSK-3β, Akt1 and NOS1 were the key targets of Hei Xiaoyaosan in treating insomnia. The core targets were predominantly associated with cAMP, RAS, Ras-associated protein 1(Rap1), advanced glycation end products(AGE)/receptor for AGE(RAGE), and EGFR signaling pathways, and the key active ingredients of Hei Xiaoyaosan in treating insomnia were 8-shogaol, ligustilide F, 6-gingerol, levistilide A and senkyunolide E. Animal experiment results demonstrated that Hei Xiaoyaosan medium and high dose groups significantly increased body weight, shortened sleep latency and prolonged sleep duration in insomnia rats(P<0.01), significantly decreased escape latency and increased platform crossing frequency(P<0.01), and improved the pathological changes of hippocampal synaptic ultrastructure. Meanwhile, the two groups could significantly elevate 5-HT level, Akt1 mRNA expression, Akt1 and p-Akt1 protein expression(P<0.01), reduce inflammatory factor levels(P<0.01), and down-regulate protein expression levels of TP53, RAS, NOS1, EGFR, CREBBP, GSK-3β and p-GSK-3β(P<0.01), as well as mRNA expression levels of TP53, RAS, NOS1, EGFR, CREBBP and GSK-3β in hippocampal tissues(P<0.01). ConclusionThis study determined that the five key active ingredients(8-shogaol, ligustilide F, 6-gingerol, levistilide A and senkyunolide E) in Hei Xiaoyaosan may improve the learning and memory ability of insomnia rats by regulating signaling pathways such as cAMP, RAS, and EGFR, providing an important reference for its mechanism research and clinical application.

No glycopeptide- and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. More than 95% of Staphylococcus aureus were sensitive to rifampicin and SMZco. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci strains were detected. Extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis were 48.4%, 23.6% and 36.1%, respectively. The prevalence rates of carbapenem-resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 2.3% and 16.1%, respectively; 9.6% of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae strains were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination. The prevalence rate of carbapenem-resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii was 60.0%, while polymyxin and tigecycline showed good activity against Acinetobacter baumannii. The prevalence rate of carbapenem-resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 23.2%. Conclusions:The surveillance results in 2020 showed that the main pathogens of bloodstream infection in China were gram-negative bacteria, while Escherichia coli was the most common pathogen, and ESBL-producing strains declined while carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae kept on high level. The proportion and the prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa were on the rise slowly. On the other side, the MRSA incidence got lower in China, while the overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci was low.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System(BRICS)were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. 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 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period,9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals,of which 7 895(87.4%)were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140(12.6%)were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli( n=4 510,49.9%), Klebsiella pneumoniae( n=2 340,25.9%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa( n=534,5.9%), Acinetobacter baumannii complex( n=405,4.5%)and Enterobacter cloacae( n=327,3.6%). The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%(2 095/4 452),21.0%(427/2 033)and 41.1%(58/141),respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli(CREC)and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)were 1.3%(58/4 510)and 13.1%(307/2 340);62.1%(36/58)and 9.8%(30/307)of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination,respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)complex was 59.5%(241/405),while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)was 18.4%(98/534). There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions,with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA( χ2=20.489 and 20.252, P<0.001). The prevalence of CREC,CRKP,CRPA,CRAB,ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals( χ2=11.953,81.183,10.404,5.915,12.415 and 6.459, P<0.01 or <0.05),while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions(per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan)than that in economically less-developed regions(per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan)( χ2=6.240, P=0.012). Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend,and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top,while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different,and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.
