Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a prevalent inflammatory skin disorder in which patients experience recurrent eczematous lesions and intense itching. The colonization of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is correlated with the severity of the disease, but its role in AD development remains elusive. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we uncovered that keratinocytes activate a distinct immune response characterized by induction of Il24 when exposed to methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). Further experiments using animal models showed that the administration of recombinant IL-24 protein worsened AD-like pathology. Genetic ablation of Il24 or the receptor Il20rb in keratinocytes alleviated allergic inflammation and atopic march. Mechanistically, IL-24 acted through its heterodimeric receptors on keratinocytes and augmented the production of IL-33, which in turn aggravated type 2 immunity and AD-like skin conditions. Overall, these findings establish IL-24 as a critical factor for onset and progression of AD and a compelling therapeutic target.

Drug-induced liver injury is caused by the drug itself and/or its metabolites during drug use or occurs due to hypersensitivity or reduced tolerance to the drug in a particular body type. In the last three years of the diagnosis and treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 （COVID-19）， antiviral drugs have played a very important role， but there are many reports on liver injury caused by anti-COVID-19 drugs in China and globally， with unknown pathogenesis of liver injury caused by such drugs. This article reviews the research advances in the types of antiviral drugs for COVID-19 and their mechanism in inducing liver injury， in order to promote the rational use of antiviral drugs.

Fertility preservation technology provides an effective method of protecting fertility resources for young patients with malignant tumors, allowing them to offspring after their fertility is impaired. However, the development of this technology has caused many social and ethical controversies. From the perspective of ethics, this paper discussed the ethical issues faced by young female patients in the implementation of fertility preservation, including whether it is necessary to preserve fertility, the ownership of the preserved fertility resources and the fair and equitable distribution of health resources involved in its implementation process, and identifies these issues and controversies from ethical view. In order to eliminate public doubts and misunderstandings about the technology of fertility preservation, ethical principles of benefit and non-harm, informed consent, prudent application, and ethical supervision have to be followed in the process of providing fertility preservation services, so as to promote the further development and application of fertility preservation technology.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance of clinical isolates in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University in 2022 for rational use of antibiotics in clinical practice.Methods Nonduplicate clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out using Kirby-Bauer method and automated systems.The data were analyzed using WHONET 5.6 software and interpreted according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints(2021 Edition).Results Of the 8 638 clinical isolates,gram negative bacteria and gram positive bacteria accounted for 60.8％(5 253/8 638)and 39.2％(3 385/8 638),respectively.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains was 33.0％in S.aureus(MRSA),75.8％in S.epidermidis(MRSE),and 51.9％in other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(MRCNS).No staphylococcal strains were found resistant to vancomycin.The prevalence of vancomycin-resistant E.faecium was 0.6％,and no vancomycin-resistant E.faecalis was found.E.faecalis strains showed higher resistance rate to linezolid(5.2％)than E.faecium(0.7％).The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE)was 7.9％,specifically 12.1％for carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae(CRKP)and 1.6％for carbapenem-resistant E.coli(CREC).The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant P.aeruginosa(CRPA)and carbapenem-resistant A.baumannii(CRAB)was 30.9％and 77.0％,respectively.Conclusions Clinical microbiology laboratories should strengthen the collection and testing of clinical specimens from the sites of infection in order to improve pathogenic diagnosis and antimicrobial resistance surveillance.This is conducive to the rational use of antibiotics and reduce the further spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria.

Objective To investigate the oral health status of the first-grade primary school students in Shanghai and analyze its influencing factors.Methods In 2021,Huangpu,Xuhui,Jiading,and Jing'an districts were selected in Shanghai by random sampling method.The first-grade students of 8 primary schools in these 4 districts were enrolled by random cluster sampling.Oral clinical examinations and questionnaires were conducted according to the criteria of the Fourth National Oral Health Epidemiological Survey.EpiData 3.1 software was used to create the database.SPSS 26.0 software was applied for statistical analysis.Chi-square test was used to compare the caries prevalence between groups,and two independent samples non-parametric test was used to compare the decayed,missing and filled teeth(DMFT)between groups.Multifactorial logistic regression model was used to analyzse the influencing factors of caries.Results A total of 824 informed consent forms and questionnaires were collected,of which 764 were completed,with an effective rate of 92.7％.The total caries prevalence of the participating students was 65.6％(501/764),and the mean DMFT was 3.24±3.47.A total of 2 473 carious teeth were found in the participating students,and 671 teeth were filled,with a filling rate of 27.1％.There were 7.91±2.76 permanent teeth erupted per student,and 56.3％(430/764)of the students had all 4 first permanent molars erupted.Multivariate logistic regression showed that eating sweets＞3 times a day(P=0.030),eating regularly before bedtime(P=0.001),and parents'cognition of kids'poor oral health status(P=0.025)were the influencing factors for the detection of caries in children.Conclusion The first-grade primary school students in Shanghai have high prevalence of caries.Eating sweets＞3 times a day,eating regularly before bedtime,and parents'cognition of kids'poor oral health status(P＜0.05)are the influencing factors for the detection of caries in children.
