Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive 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:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.

Objective:To investigate the 10-years risk for cardiovascular diseases(CVD) among different subtypes of pre-diabetes(Pre-DM) residents aged 40 and above in Guiyang urban area and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods:A total of 5 798 residents who participated in the " Risk Evaluation of cAncers in Chinese diabe Tic Individuals: a lONgitudinal(REACTION) Study" were selected to undergo oral glucose tolerance test and glycated hemoglobin test. According to the Pre-DM diagnostic criteria, normal glucose tolerance(NGT), impaired fasting glucose(IFG), impaired glucose tolerance(IGT), and diabetes mellitus were defined based on glycated hemoglobin(IA1C), and were combined into four groups: NGT group, single subtype group(IFG, IGT, IA1C), two-subtype combination group(IFG+ IGT, IFG+ IA1C, IGT+ IA1C), and three-subtype combination group(IFG+ IGT+ IA1C). Ten-year cardiovascular disease occurrence was investigated. The logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk of CVD occurrence in different subtypes of Pre-DM residents. Results:(1)The incidence in the single subtype group, two subtypes group and three subtypes group of CVD was 6.6%(182/2 752), 8.4%(135/1 613) and 9.6%(53/551) , respectively, all higher than NGT group at 5.2%(46/882). (2) Regardless of diagnosed by fasting blood glucose, 2 h blood glucose, or glycated hemoglobin, the 10-year CVD incidence rates(8.7%, 8.6%, 7.6%) in Pre-DM were higher than that in the NGT group(5.2%; all P<0.05). (3)After multivariate adjustment, compared with the NGT group, the 10-year CVD risk gradually increased in the single subtype group, two-subtype group, and three-subtype group, with OR of 1.03(95% CI 0.74-1.45), 1.08(95% CI 0.75-1.54), and 1.16(95% CI 0.75-1.78), respectively. Conclusion:The Pre-DM population has a higher 10-year risk for CVD, and the risk increases gradually with the accumulation of subtypes. Therefore the prevention and treatment of CVD should focus on the management of the Pre-DM population.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

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.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH) levels and 10-year mortality in women aged 40 years and older.Methods:Residents aged 40 and over in urban areas of Guiyang City who participated in the " Epidemiological Study of Cancer Risk in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes in China(REACTION)" were followed up in 2011. Finally, 5 614 people were enrolled, and the baseline general information, physical examination and TSH detection were carried out. The average follow-up was(9.77±1.55) years, and the treatment and death of thyroid-related diseases were recorded. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the relationship between TSH level and 10-year mortality in middle-aged and elderly women, and plotting survival time curves(Kaplan-Meier curves) to study the association between elevated TSH levels and lifespan in subjects under 65 years old. Results:The multivariate Cox proportional hazards model showed that compared with the normal group, after multivariate adjustment, the risk of death in the TSH increased group was decreased( HR=0.644, 95% CI 0.478-0.868, P<0.05); after stratifying the elevated TSH group, the risk of death was decreased in the slightly elevated TSH group( HR=0.566, 95% CI 0.405-0.791, P<0.001); the elevated TSH group was further stratified by age. In the group under 65 years old, compared to the normal group, the mildly elevated group showed a reduced risk of mortality( HR=0.429, 95% CI 0.245-0.751, P=0.003). In the group aged 65 and above, there were no statistically significant differences in mortality risk between the mildly elevated group, severely elevated group, and the normal group( P>0.05). In the group under 65 years old, the K-M curve indicated that the survival rate of the mildly elevated TSH group was significantly higher than that of the normal group( χ2=11.931, P=0.003), the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion:Mildly elevated TSH levels in women aged 40-65 years are associated with a reduced risk of all-cause death and longer lifespan.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of Tongdu Huoxue decoction in the treatment of acute lumbar disc herniation （LDH）. MethodA total of 316 patients with acute LDH admitted to the orthopedic outpatient department of Hubei Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Honghu City Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2020 to June 2023 were randomly divided into two groups. 156 cases in the control group （two cases with stopped follow-up） were treated with meloxicam tablets， while 153 cases in the observation group （five cases with stopped follow-up） were treated with Tongdu Huoxue decoction. Both groups were treated for three months. The clinical efficacy， McGill Pain Score Scale （SF-MPQ）， Oswestry Dysfunction Index （ODI） score， and the Japanese Orthopaedic Association （JOA） scores of the two groups before and after treatment were compared. The serum levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） of the patients before and after treatment were determined by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The NDI-092 type electromyography-evoked potential instrument was adopted to measure the motor conduction velocity and clinical efficacy of the tibial and common peroneal nerves in patients of the two groups before and after treatment， and the clinical safety of the two groups of patients was compared. ResultAfter treatment， the total effective rate in the observation group was 95.4% （146/153）， significantly higher than that in the control group of 76.3% （119/156） （χ² =23.18， P<0.05）. After treatment， both groups showed significant reductions in SF-MPQ and ODI scores， as well as the levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α （P<0.05）， with the observation group showing a more significant reduction （P<0.05）. Both groups showed a significant increase in JOA scores and motor conduction velocities of the tibial and common peroneal nerves after treatment （P<0.05）， with the observation group showing a more significant increase （P<0.05）. ConclusionTongdu Huoxue decoction can alleviate lumbar and leg pain in acute LDH， improve lumbar spine function， and suppress inflammatory reactions. It is highly safe and is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical bacterial isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2021.Methods:The clinical bacterial strains isolated from blood culture from member hospitals of Blood Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System (BRICS) were collected during January 2021 to December 2021. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). WHONET 5.6 was used to analyze data.Results:During the study period, 11 013 bacterial strains were collected from 51 hospitals, of which 2 782 (25.3%) were Gram-positive bacteria and 8 231 (74.7%) were Gram-negative bacteria. The top 10 bacterial species were Escherichia coli (37.6%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (18.9%), Staphylococcus aureus (9.8%), coagulase-negative Staphylococci (6.3%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3.6%), Enterococcus faecium (3.6%), Acinetobacter baumannii (2.8%), Enterococcus faecalis (2.7%), Enterobacter cloacae (2.5%) and Klebsiella spp (2.1%). The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus aureus were 25.3% and 76.8%, respectively. No glycopeptide- and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci was detected; more than 95.0% of Staphylococcus aureus were sensitive to ceftobiprole. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci strains were detected. The rates of extended spectrum B-lactamase (ESBL)-producing isolated in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis were 49.6%, 25.5% and 39.0%, respectively. The prevalence rates of carbapenem-resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 2.2% and 15.8%, respectively; 7.9% of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae was resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination. Ceftobiprole demonstrated excellent activity against non-ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Aztreonam/avibactam was highly active against carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The prevalence rate of carbapenem-resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii was 60.0%, while polymyxin and tigecycline showed good activity against Acinetobacter baumannii (5.5% and 4.5%). The prevalence of carbapenem-resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 18.9%. Conclusions:The BRICS surveillance results in 2021 shows that the main pathogens of blood stream infection in China are gram-negative bacteria, in which Escherichia coli is the most common. The MRSA incidence shows a further decreasing trend in China and the overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is low. The prevalence of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is still on a high level, but the trend is downwards.

Objective:To investigate the effect of the interaction between metabolic syndrome and smoking on the risk of subsequent cardiovascular events.Methods:Urban residents aged 40 and above in the Yunyan District of Guiyang City were selected from " Risk Evaluation of cAncers in Chinese diabeTic Individuals: A lONgitudinal(REACTION) Study". The baseline survey started in 2011 and general information including gender, age, medical history, lifestyle habits, and smoking status were collected. Additionally, biochemical indicators related to metabolic syndrome(MS) were measured. The study participants were then followed up, and the first cardiovascular events occurring after the initial survey were recorded. The average follow-up period was 10.07±1.49 years. The interaction between metabolic syndrome and smoking on subsequent cardiovascular events was analyzed using Cox proportional hazards models.Results:The study included a total of 7 275 individuals, among whom 639 experienced cardiovascular events. After adjusting for multiple variables, compared to non-smokers without metabolic syndrome(MS), smokers with MS showed a higher risk of cardiovascular events, with a hazard ratio( HR) of 6.54(95% CI 4.88, 8.78). This risk was higher than that of individuals with MS who never smoked [ HR 1.39(95% CI 1.11, 1.75)] and non-MS smokers [ HR 2.48(95% CI 1.77, 3.49)]. There was an additive interaction between MS and smoking on the occurrence of cardiovascular events, with a relative excess risk due to interaction(RERI) of 3.30(95% CI 1.89, 4.70), an attributable proportion(AP) of 0.55(95% CI 0.43, 0.59), and a synergy index(S) of 3.07(95% CI 1.94, 4.84). Furthermore, when stratifying the duration of smoking cessation, long-term quitters(≥8 years) showed a lower risk of cardiovascular events compared to current smokers, regardless of whether they had MS. The hazard ratios were 0.45(95% CI 0.26, 0.78) for individuals with MS and 0.42(95% CI 0.19, 0.95) for individuals without MS. Conclusions:There is an additive interaction between smoking and MS on the risk of cardiovascular events. The coexistence of both factors significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular events.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for clinically safe application of avapritinib. METHODS The adverse drug event （ADE） reports of avapritinib from January 9th，2020，to September 30th，2022 were collected from FDA Adverse Event Reporting System （FAERS） database. For data mining and analysis，reporting odds ratio （ROR） method and proportional reporting ratio （PRR） method in the proportional imbalance method were utilized. RESULTS A total of 10 895 ADE reports with avapritinib as the main suspect drug were gathered，and 201 ADE signals involving 19 systematic organ classifications were found after eliminating invalid signals. The instruction of the drugs did not mention any of the ADE，including tinnitus，dementia，chilly limbs， the reduction of blood iron，the reduction of blood sugar，fever，the reduction of vitamin D and vitamin B12，as well as all ADE in the 2 SOCs of musculoskeletal and connective tissue illnesses，diseases of the reproductive system，and diseases of the breast. The majority of the ADE reports 670 cases with complete drug information were for the nervous system （230 cases，accounting for 34.33%） and ocular organ （277 cases，accounting for 41.34%）. Compared with other systems，daily dose and treatment course showed significant effects on ADE of neurological system and ocular organ （P＜0.05），and the patient’s age had a significant impact on the ADE of the nervous system （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS A greater incidence of ADE after using avapritinib is present in patients older than 65 with a daily dose of 300 mg/d and a treatment period lasting between 31 and 90 days； patients receiving a daily dose of 300 mg/d and a treatment regimen lasting 31 to 90 days are more likely to experience ADE of the ocular organ. Attention should be given to the aberrant symptoms of the patient’s eyes and nervous system throughout clinical use of avapritinib，and prompt intervention should be given.

Objective: To explore the heterogeneity and correlation of clinical phenotypes and genotypes in children with disorders of sex development (DSD). Methods: A retrospective study of 1 235 patients with clinically proposed DSD in 36 pediatric medical institutions across the country from January 2017 to May 2021. After capturing 277 DSD-related candidate genes, second-generation sequencing was performed to analyzed the heterogeneity and correlation combined with clinical phenotypes. Results: Among 1 235 children with clinically proposed DSD, 980 were males and 255 were females of social gender at the time of initial diagnosis with the age ranged from 1 day of age to 17.92 years. A total of 443 children with pathogenic variants were detected through molecular genetic studies, with a positive detection rate of 35.9%. The most common clinical phenotypes were micropenis (455 cases), hypospadias (321 cases), and cryptorchidism (172 cases) and common mutations detected were in SRD5A2 gene (80 cases), AR gene (53 cases) and CYP21A2 gene (44 cases). Among them, the SRD5A2 mutation is the most common in children with simple micropenis and simple hypospadias, while the AMH mutation is the most common in children with simple cryptorchidism. Conclusions: The SRD5A2 mutation is the most common genetic variant in Chinese children with DSD, and micropenis, cryptorchidism, and hypospadias are the most common clinical phenotypes. Molecular diagnosis can provide clues about the biological basis of DSD, and can also guide clinicians to perform specific clinical examinations. Target sequence capture probes and next-generation sequencing technology can provide effective and economical genetic diagnosis for children with DSD.
