Abstract: Objective　To investigate the molecular characteristics and drug resistance of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) isolated from wounds of paatients with orthopedic trauma, and analyze the molecular subtyping, virulence genes and drug resistance of SA in wounds of patients, so as to provide reference for the prevention and treatment of wound SA infection in patients. Methods　From January 2020 to June 2022, a total of 128 SA isolates were collected from wound specimens of orthopedic trauma patients at Wuxi 9th People's Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) were differentiated using PCR. Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST), staphylococcal protein A (spa), staphylococcal chromatoidal cassette mec (SCCmec), and accessory gene regulator (agr) typing were performed to determine the molecular typing and presence of virulence genes and drug resistance profiles. Results　Among the 128 SA isolates, 76 (59.38%) were MRSA and 52 (40.62%) were MSSA. MRSA typing showed that, MLST was dominated by ST59 (46 strains, 60.53%), spa was dominated by t437 (52.63%), SCCmec was dominated by Ⅰ (42.11%) and Ⅳ (39.47%). MSSA typing showed that, MLST was dominated by ST188 (30.77%), spa was dominated by t189 (61.54%), agr was dominated by Ⅰ (53.85%). In MLST typing, ST59 of MRSA was higher than that of MSSA, and ST188 and ST6 of MRSA were lower than those of MSSA (χ2=36.207, 20.227, 9.984, P<0.05). In spa typing, the t437 of MRSA was higher than that of MSSA, and the t189 of MRSA was lower than that of MSSA (χ2=18.276, 32.781, P<0.05). The virulence genes showed that, the detection rates of hlb and seb in MRSA were higher than those in MSSA (χ2=47.838, 10.261, P<0.05), and the detection rates of cna and ebpS in MRSA were lower than those in MSSA (χ2=26.176, 8.305, P<0.05). Drug susceptibility test showed that, and the drug resistance rates of MRSA and MSSA to vancomycin (VAN) and linezolid (LNZ) were 0. The drug resistance rates of MRSA to oxacillin (OXA), ERY and CLI were 86.84%, 68.42% and 76.32%, which were higher than corresponding 7.69%, 42.31% and 46.15% of MSSA (χ2=78.055, 8.623, 12.200, P<0.05). The analysis of multi-drug resistant strains (MDR) showed that 76 MRSA strains were MDR strains, and 12 of 52 MSSA strains (23.08%) were MDR strains. Conclusions　The molecular characteristics of SA isolated from orthopedic trauma patients' wounds were predominantly associated with MRSA strains of ST59-t437-SCCmec Ⅰ/Ⅳ-MRSA and ST188/ST6-t189-agr Ⅰ. These strains showed higher resistance to oxacillin, erythromycin, clindamycin, and higher susceptibility to vancomycin and linezolid. Such characteristics were closely related to the carriage of virulence genes. Clinicians should pay attention to the presence of MDR MSSA and develop appropriate antimicrobial strategies based on SA's molecular characteristics and antimicrobial resistance.

Objective: To study the clinicopathologic characteristics and diagnostic criteria of primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBL), and to distinguish PMBL from classic Hodgkin lymphoma(CHL) and systemic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL). Methods: The clinical features, histologic findings, results of immunohistochemical study and prgnosis in 27 PMBL cases were analyzed, with review of literature. Results: The age of patients ranged from 19 to 82 years (median age 34 years). All cases were located in the mediastinum and frequently accompanied by superior vein cava syndrome. Histologically, the tumor cells were pleomorphic and diffusely distributed. Clear cytoplasm and spindle tumor cells were seen in some cases. Varying amount of sclerosing stroma with collagen deposition was seen.Immunohistochemical study showed that the tumor cells were positive for CD20(100%, 27/27), CD30 (64.0%, 16/25), CD23 (77.3%, 17/22) and p63 (16/19). Clonal B cell gene rearrangement was seen. Conclusions PMBL is a subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with various histomorphology. Immunohistochemistry can help to confirm the diagnosis, and the prognosis is better than diffuse large B cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified.

Objective:To investigate the pahtogengesis and pathology of delayed xenograft rejection (DXR) after pig to rhesus monkey heart xenotransplantation.Methods:Heterotopic xenogeneic heart transplantation in the abdominal cavity was performed using piglet as donors.4 monkeys were used as recipients.Complete complement depletion was achieve in the recipients treated with repetitive doses of a high activity cobra venom factor (Y CVF).The recipients were immunosuppressed with a combination of cyclosporine A,cyclophosphamide and steroids.Sera were analyzed for C3,C4 levels and complement activity and anti pig endotheliocyte xenoantibody.The graft were examined histopathologically and immunohistochemically for C3,C4,C5b 9,IgM,IgG,necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha),intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM 1),CD57 (NK cells),CD68 (macrophages),CD4 and CD8.Results:The xenografts survived 8,10,13,13 days respectively and all grafts occoured DXR.Venular thrombosis was outstanding feature within DXR xenografts,complicated with interstitial edma,local hemorrhage and myocardial necrosis,with mild to moderate cellular infiltration.The serum C3 levels and complement activity almost decreased to 0 from the day of transplantation due to Y CVF,the C4 level began to decrease 2 4 days before the cardic xenografts losing their function.The anti pig endotheliocyte xenoantibody also decreased after transplantation,and slightly increased during DXR,all rejected xenografts showed C3,C4,C5b 9,IgG and IgM deposits in different degree.Large numbers of macrophages (50% of total leukocytes) were found infiltrating the entire xenograft,a few natural killer cells (8%～10%),some of CD4+T cells (15%) and CD8+T cells (25%) were detcted also,up regulation of ICAM 1 on the graft endothelial cells and TNF alpha in the interstitial were demonstrated in the rejected heart.Conclusion:Both Humor and cell mediated immunologic reaction may play an important role in pahtogengesis of DXR.

Conclusions The main influencing factors are the different treatment modalities, severity of symptoms the length of medical history and massage therapy in the related factors that affect the effect of infantwith dacryocystitis.

Objective To study the human papillomavirus(HPV)infection and genotype distribution characteristics in male outpatients,and compare with female infection status,in order to provide scientific basis for the clinical development of prevention and treatment measures for male HPV infection related diseases.Methods Polymerase chain reaction(PCR)amplification followed by directed hybridization was used to detect 37 HPV genotypes in 258 male outpatients of Yangzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital from July 2018 to December 2022.The detection results were further compared with the detection results of 1436 female physical examinees and 931 cervical exfoliated cell samples of gynecological patients suspected of HPV infection at the same time.Results There were 103 of the 258 male outpatients were positive,with an infection rate of 39.92%.Among the 103 positive samples,high-risk,low-risk,and mixed high-risk HPV infections accounted for 58.25%,20.39%,and 21.36%,respectively.Among them,59 were infected with single infection,accounting for 57.28%,44 were infected with more than double infection(multiple infection),accounting for 42.72%,and the most one had ten types infections.Single infection was mainly high-risk type,while multiple infection was mainly high-risk type and mixed high-risk type.There was no statistically significant difference in HPV infection rate,infection type,and infection status between male patients and female patients(P=0.456,0.192,0.102),but there was a statistically significant difference compared with female physical examinees(P<0.001,0.032,<0.001).The peak age of HPV infection is 20-39 years old,accounting for 74.75%,and there was no statistically significant difference in HPV detection rate among different age groups(P=0.297).33 HPV genotypes were detected in both male and female groups.The top five subtypes were HPV52,58,51,54 and 61 in male patients,while HPV57,67,69 and 83 were not detected.The top five subtypes were HPV52,16,58,53 and 61 in female groups,while HPV57,69,72 and 26 were not detected.Physical examination is the main reason of 103 male infected patients seeking medical treatment.Conclusion The HPV infection status in male is similar to that of female patients,with high-risk infection being the main type and single subtype infection being the main infection.The peak age of male patients with HPV infection is 20-39 years old.HPV52,58,51,54,61 are the most common types,and most of them are asymptomatic.Therefore,men are high-risk groups of HPV infection.It is necessary to carry out HPV detection for male outpatients.

As a ligand-dependent transcription factor,retinoid-associated orphan receptor γt(RORyt)that controls T helper(Th)17 cell differentiation and interleukin(IL)-17 expression plays a critical role in the pro-gression of several inflammatory and autoimmune conditions.An emerging novel approach to the therapy of these diseases thus involves controlling the transcriptional capacity of RORyt to decrease Th17 cell development and IL-17 production.Several RORyt inhibitors including both antagonists and inverse agonists have been discovered to regulate the transcriptional activity of RORyt by binding to orthosteric-or allosteric-binding sites in the ligand-binding domain.Some of small-molecule inhibitors have entered clinical evaluations.Therefore,in current review,the role of RORyt in Th17 regulation and Th17-related inflammatory and autoimmune diseases was highlighted.Notably,the recently developed RORyt inhibitors were summarized,with an emphasis on their optimization from lead compounds,ef-ficacy,toxicity,mechanisms of action,and clinical trials.The limitations of current development in this area were also discussed to facilitate future research.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is one of types of inflammatory bowel disease with high recurrence. Recent studies have highlighted that microbial dysbiosis as well as abnormal gut immunity are crucial factors that initiate a series of inflammatory responses in the UC. Modulating the gut microbiota-intestinal immunity loop has been suggested as one of key strategies for relieving UC. Many Chinese herbal medicines including some of single herb, herbal formulas and the derived constituents have been reported with protective effect against UC through modulating gut microbiome and intestinal immunity. Some clinical trials have shown promising results. This review thus focused on the current knowledge on using Chinese herbal medicines for treating UC from the mechanism aspects of regulating intestinal homeostasis involving microbiota and gut immunity. The existing clinical trials are also summarized.
