Objective·To investigate the predictive value of the Clinical Frailty Scale(CFS)in the long term outcomes in acute myocardial infarction(AMI)patients who completed in-hospital cardiac rehabilitation(CR).Methods·A total of 501 AMI patients treated in the Cardiology Center of Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University of Medicine from May 2020 to May 2022 were prospectively enrolled,with their baseline clinical data collected.The patients completed graded in-hospital CR and were assessed by CFS based on their completion of CR before discharge.Patients were then categorized into three groups(norm group,vulnerable group and frail group)according to their CFS level.The difference in 1-year major cardiovascular event(all-cause death and re-hospitalization for heart failure)rates among the three groups was investigated.Logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the effective risk factors relevant to the outcomes,and receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curves were generated to analyze the prognostic value.Finally,an optimal prediction model was developed.Results·The CFS level in AMI patients who completed CR was positively correlated with age and peak pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(peak proBNP),and inversely correlated with gender difference(P<0.05).Accompanied with the elevated CFS level,the incidence of both outcomes increased,and there were significant differences in all-cause death(2.6%,5.6%and 15.2%,P=0.002),and while no significant differences in re-hospitalization for heart failure among the three groups(19.6%,22.2%and 24.2%).All-cause death of the frail group was significantly higher than that of the norm group(P=0.004),while there was no significant difference between the vulnerable group and the norm group.CFS could sensitively predict the 1-year all-cause death in AMI patients(β=1.89,OR=6.61,P=0.001),and the risk model combined with CFS had the best predictive effect(AUC=0.845,P=0.000).Conclusion·Assessment by CFS in AMI patients who completed in-hospital CR contributes to identifying AMI patients with high risk of all-cause death in 1 year.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Results Under muscle force loading, the contact force of the 1st metatarsophalangeal joint, the 2nd metatarsophalangeal joint, the 1st tarsometatarsal joint,the 2nd tarsometatarsal joint, the medial cuneonavicular joint, the intermediate cuneonavicular joint, the talonavicular joint and the tibiotalar joint were significantly greater than those without muscle force loading (P<0. 05), and the change percentages were 719. 28% , 311. 37% , 128. 67% , 50. 82% , 54. 89% , 57. 63% ,79. 98% and 50. 34% , respectively. The peak pressures of the 1st metatarsophalangeal joint , the 1st tarsometatarsal joint and the talonavicular joint under muscle force loading were significantly higher than those without muscle force loading ( P < 0. 05), and the change percentages were 176. 14% , 62. 91% and 40. 07% ,respectively. The contact area of the 1st metatarsophalangeal joint, the 1st tarsometatarsal joint, the intermediate cuneonavicular joint and the subtalar joint ( posterior articular surface) under muscle force loading increased significantly (P<0. 05), and the change percentages were 132. 20% , 55. 41% , 30. 97% and 26. 87% , respectively. Conclusions In biomechanical experiment of foot and ankle specimens, muscle force loading has a significant effect on contact force, peak pressure and contact area of each foot joint, especially the forefoot.Therefore, it is necessary to consider the effect of muscle force loading on stress of foot and ankle in the study ofrelated in vitro specimens

Objective:To introduce and validate the Pediatric Nausea Assessment Tool (PeNAT) and the Baxter Retching Faces Scale (BARF) in the assessment of chemotherapy induced nausea in Chinese children with malignant neoplasms, and to explore the cut-off value for rescue antiemetic.Methods:A prospective descriptive study was conducted, 244 children in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center with malignant neoplasms who received chemotherapy were selected by convenience sampling from July to August 2021. PeNAT, BARF, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and the Faces Pain Scale-Revised(FPS-R) were used to assess the severity of nausea and pain before and after chemotherapy, before and 30-60 minutes after the use of rescue antiemetic or analgesic. After chemotherapy, the children also were asked the changes of nausea severity and whether antiemetic was needed.Results:A test-retest reliability was conducted on the patients with the same severity of nausea before and after chemotherapy, and the intraclass correlation coefficient of the PeNAT and BARF were 0.940 (both P<0.05). After chemotherapy, the PeNAT and BARF were 1.5(1.0, 2.0) and 2.0(0, 2.0) points, which were significantly higher than the 1.0(1.0, 1.0) and 0(0, 0) points before chemotherapy ( Z = - 9.19, - 9.09, both P<0.01). The PeNAT and BARF of 11 cases receiving antiemetic before medication were 4.0 (4.0, 6.0) and 3.0(2.0, 4.0) points, which were higher than the 0(0, 2.0) and 1.0(1.0, 2.0) points without antiemetic ( Z = - 4.03, - 3.86, both P<0.05). After chemotherapy, the correlation coefficients between PeNAT or BARF and VAS-nausea were r = 0.933, 0.957 (both P<0.01), and FPS-R were r = 0.192, 0.189 (both P<0.05). After using antiemetic, PeNAT and BARF were 2.0(2.0, 3.0) and 2.5(2.0, 4.0) points, which were significant different than the 3.0(3.0, 3.8) and 4.0(4.0, 8.0) points before using antiemetic ( Z = - 2.97, - 2.83, both P<0.05). According ROC curves and cut-off values, it was determined that PeNAT≥3 and BARF≥4 had clinical significance and require clinical intervention. Conclusions:PeNAT and BARF have excellent reliability and validity in the assessment of chemotherapy induced nausea in children with malignant neoplasms, they can effectively identify the requirement of rescue antiemetic, and evaluate the efficacy of antiemetic.

From March 2015 to February 2018, 4 728 women aged 18 to 45 years old with single-pregnancy at the gestational age of 13 to 27 weeks in Hefei were recruited to analyze the trend of vitamin D status. The average levels of serum 25(OH)D in 2015, 2016 and 2017 were (43.22±18.41) nmol/L, (39.3±15.1) nmol/L and (36.6±17.0) nmol/L, and the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency were 69.5%, 77.6% and 81.4%, respectively. Compared with 2015, the levels of serum 25(OH)D in pregnant women in 2016 and 2017 decreased by 5.23 (95%CI: 4.10-6.35) nmol/L and 7.98 (95%CI: 6.77-9.19) nmol/L. The OR (95%CI) values for the risk of vitamin D deficiency were 1.88 (95%CI: 1.57-2.24) and 2.41 (95%CI: 1.98-2.93).

Objective: To analyze the effect of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in radiation induced esophagitis of model rabbit. Methods: Thirty male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into EGCG group, saline group, blank group. The rabbits in EGCG and saline groups were irradiated with 6 MV X-rays. The blank group did not receive radiation. After irradiation, rabbits were given with 440 μmol/L EGCG or saline three times a day in continuous 5 days. The scores of pathological changes of esophagus were observed by optical microscope.The serum levels of interleukine-1 beta (IL-1β), interleukine-6 (IL-6), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The expression levels of 67KD laminin receptor (67LR) was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results: After treatment, the scores of pathological changes of esophagus in blank group, saline group, EGCG group were 0, 3.9±1.10 and 2.80±0.92, respectively. At different time points after drug treatment, the levels of serum inflammatory factors among three groups were significantly different (F=23.66-236.32, P<0.05). The expressions of 67LR in esophageal tissue of 3 groups were also significantly different (F=585.38, P<0.05). Conclusions EGCG reduced radiation-induced esophagitis in rabbits by decreasing the levels of serum inflammatory factors, which may be related to the expression of 67LR protein.

Objective: To explore the relationship between the vitamin D levels and lipid metabolism during second trimester. Methods: A total of 1 875 pregnant women who were in the second trimester and had antenatal care in 3 hospitals in Hefei of Anhui province from March 2015 to February 2018 were included. Baseline questionnaire survey was performed, and fasting venous blood samples were collected from the pregnant women to detect serum 25(OH)D, cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) levels. Cubic non-linear model and linear regression model were used to analyze the linear relationship between vitamin D levels and lipid metabolism indicators in the second trimester. Results: The vitamin D deficiency rate was 75.3% (1 412/1 875) in the pregnant women. The mean levels of lipid metabolism indicators TC, TG, HDL-C and LDL-C were (233.22±38.87), (226.24±83.88), (79.04±12.77), and (109.54±25.95) mg/dl respectively. Multivariate linear regression model results showed, compared with Q5 of the 25(OH)D, the TC and TG levels of Q1-Q4 groups significantly increased, and the LDL-C of Q1 and Q2 groups significantly increased. The highest difference between TC, TG and LDL-C was observed in Q1 group. (TC: β=16.88, 95%CI: 10.50-23.26; TG: β=34.92, 95%CI: 21.32-48.53; LDL-C: β=9.06, 95%CI: 4.77-13.35). No significant differences in HDL-C level among the 5 groups were observed. When stratified with vitamin D deficiency the results showed that, when 25(OH)D was <50 nmol/L, TC, TG and LDL-C levels decreased by 3.53 (95%CI: 1.30-5.75), 7.42 (95%CI: 2.41 to 12.44) and 2.08 mg/dl (95%CI: 0.60-3.57) along with a 10 nmol/L increase of 25(OH)D, the difference was statistically significant, and when 25(OH)D was ≥50 nmol/L, no significant correlation was found between 25(OH)D level and TC, TG and LDL-C levels. No significant relationship between 25(OH)D level and HDL-C level was observed regardless of vitamin D deficiency. Conclusions There was a nonlinear relationship between vitamin D levels and lipid metabolism indicators in the second trimester. There was a significant negative correlation between 25(OH)D level and lipid metabolism indicators only in the deficiency of vitamin D.

Objective To explore the relationship between different statuses of vitamin D and parathyroid hormone (PTH) during pregnancy with glucose metabolism and the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods A total of 4138 pregnant women who had antenatal care in 3 hospitals of Hefei from March 2015 to December 2017 were recruited during 21-24 weeks. Baseline questionnaires were performed and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH) D] and PTH levels were measured in fasting venous blood. Glucose tolerance tests were performed during 24 to 28 weeks. Multivariate linear regression model and multivariate logistic regression model were applied to analyze the differences of glucose metabolism index and GDM risk among pregnant women at different statusesof25(OH)DandPTH.Results Theaveragelevelof25(OH)Dinthesecondtrimesterwas(39.8±16.6) nmol/L, with the median PTH 10.7 (6.9, 16.7) ng/L and the detection rate of GDM 20.4％. Covariance analysis showed no statistically significant association of vitamin D and PTH levels with glucose metabolism indexes. Pregnant women with high PTH and vitamin D deficiency had higher 1h postprandial plasma glucose ( 1hPG) , the area under the glucose curve ( AUCglu ) levels, and GDM risk compared with pregnant women with middle/lower PTH and vitamin D deficiency ( control group, all P<0.05) , and higher PTH accompanied with vitamin D non-deficiency ( Group 2, all P<0.05) . However, significant changes in glucose metabolism indicators and GDM risk were not observed in low-level PTH-pregnant women with vitamin D deficiency ( group 1) and group 2 pregnant women compared with control group. Conclusion There is an interaction between vitamin D/PTH levels and glucose metabolism during pregnancy. Vitamin D deficiency with elevated PTH level is associated with abnormal glucose metabolism.
