Objective:To explore the mediating effect of family care on disease perception and medical coping strategies in maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients,and to provide theoretical basis for clinical intervention.Methods:This study was a prospective study,136 patients who received MHD treatment at Shanxi Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital from January 2023 to January 2025 as the research subjects were selected.The family adaptation,partnership,growth,affection,resolve index(APGAR)questionnaire was used to evaluate family care,the brief illness perception questionnaire(BIPQ)was used to assess disease perception,and medical coping modes questionnaire(MCMQ)was used to evaluate medical coping strategies.The correlation between family care,disease perception,and medical coping strategies was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis,and the mediating effect of family care on disease perception and medical coping strategies was tested by Bootstrap method(5000 repeated samples).Result:Family care was negatively correlated with disease perception(r=-0.428,P＜0.05),positively correlated with positive coping(r=0.513,P＜0.05),and negatively correlated with negative coping(r=-0.397,P＜0.05).The mediation effect analysis shows that family care partially mediates the relationship between disease perception and positive coping(mediation effect value-0.173,accounting for 35.67％of the total effect),and also partially mediates the relationship between disease perception and negative coping(mediation effect value 0.184,accounting for 41.26％of the total effect).Conclusion:Family care is an important mediating variable in the impact of disease perception on medical coping strategies,clinical practice can improve patients' disease perception and promote the adoption of positive coping strategies by enhancing family care.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of Shen'an decoction in treating chronic renal insufficiency and systematically assess its effects on immune regulation,renal function and lipid metabolism.Methods A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted,and 102 patients with chronic renal insufficiency were selected.Patients were randomly divided into the control group(51 cases,receiving conventional Western medical treatment)and the observation group(51 cases,receiving conventional Western medical treatment combined with Ren'an decoction).The traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,clinical efficacy,levels of immunoglobulin(Ig)G,IgM,IgA,24-hour urine protein quantification(24 hUP),cystatin C(Cys C),serum creatinine(Scr),blood calcium,blood phosphorus,triglycerides(TG)and total cholesterol(TC)were evaluated before treatment and 8 weeks after treatment.The levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and advanced oxidation protein products(AOPPs)were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Adverse reactions such as nausea,diarrhea,dizziness and rash during the treatment period were recorded.Results After 8 weeks of treatment,the TCM syndrome scores,24 hUP,Cys C,Scr,blood phosphorus,TG,TC,ROS and AOPPs were significantly lower in both groups than those before treatment,and the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group(P＜0.05).The levels of IgG,IgM,IgA and blood calcium were significantly higher in both groups than those before treatment,and the observation group was significantly higher than those of the control group(P＜0.05).The total clinical effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group(94.12%vs.80.39%,P＜0.05).There was one case of nausea,one case of dizziness and one case of rash in the observation group,and one case of nausea,one case of diarrhea and two cases of dizziness occurred in the control group.There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups.Conclusion The addition of Shen'an decoction in the treatment of patients with chronic renal insufficiency on the basis of conventional Western medical treatment can improve the clinical efficacy,enhance immune function,renal function,lipid metabolism and oxidative stress indicators,with good safety.

Anxiety is a major emotional disorder manifested in the individual's expectation of future threats.The incidence rate of anxiety is about 7.3％,with the highest lifetime prevalence rate among mental health conditions.The mechanism of anxiety overlaps with depression,and anxiety is a typical symptom of various mental diseases or emotional disorders in traditional Chinese medicine.The high rates of comorbidity and disability pose serious threats to people's health.Animal models are important tools for studying anxiety and are of great use for deciphering the pathogenesis of anxiety and for developing drugs.The traditional paradigm of stress-induced anxiety,however,is relatively limited.Based on traditional theory combined with clinical and animal experimental data,we propose a new hypothesis of"insufficiency of ZhiYi'causing anxiety,defined as"an anxiety state induced by the inability of an individual to meet their own needs,limited or lacking after multiple attempts,rendered hindered and powerless by an inability to meet their desires".This hypothesis is more in line with the typical manifestations of despair,lack of pleasure,and social withdrawal in clinical patients,and is supported by traditional theory and experimental data showing"hunger but unable to eat,food but unable to obtain,and gain but not full".Based on this,the established modeling paradigm is easy to apply,with good repeatability and low cost,and can be used to establish anxiety models in rats and mice,to provide a theoretical and model basis for the development and pharmacological evaluation of anti-anxiety drugs.

Background and purpose:The microphthalmia-associated transcription factor(MITF)plays a complex role in melanoma pathogenesis and progression.It is known to regulate multiple processes both in melanocytes and melanoma cells.While numerous studies have explored MITF in cutaneous melanoma(CM),research in acral melanoma(AM)is still limited.This study retrospectively analyzed the correlation between MITF expression and clinical,pathological characteristics and prognosis in AM patients,providing a basis for prognosis evaluation and personalized treatment plan formulation for patients.Methods:Patients who underwent primary resection of AM at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from March 2008 to February 2022 were included.All surgical samples were diagnosed by clinical histopathology and used to construct the tissue microarray(TMA).This study was approved by the medical ethics committee of Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center(approval number:2203-ZZK-69-3).Cutting complete tissue microarray and evaluating MITF expression levels by immunohistochemistry(IHC)staining were carried out.The results were independently assessed and scored by three pathologists.Clinical and pathological data were collected from the hospital's electronic medical record system,and each patient's data was matched to their corresponding tissue sample on the chip.Patients were stratified into two groups based on MITF expression levels.Statistical analyses were performed to assess differences in clinical,pathological characteristics and survival outcomes between these two groups.Results:A total of 137 AM patients were included.MITF expression was significantly associated with T stage,N stage,American Joint Committee on Cancer(AJCC)stage,clark level,sentinel lymph node status,and presence of ulceration.Among these,N stage and ulceration were independent risk factors for high expression of MITF after adjusting for confounding factors.Survival analysis showed that AM patients with high MITF expression or higher T stage were associated with shorter disease-free survival(DFS).Patients with high MITF expression showed no significant difference in overall survival(OS)between observation or cytokine therapy and adjuvant immune checkpoint inhibitor(ICI)therapy,whereas those with low MITF expression derived significant survival benefits from ICI treatment.Conclusion:A higher N stage or the presence of ulceration indicates high MITF expression in tumor cells,with high MITF levels serving as a warning signal for early recurrence,metastasis,and even death.Patients with low MITF expression could receive improved OS with early adjuvant ICI therapy.MITF could not only serve as an auxiliary diagnostic marker for melanoma but also provide a basis for clinical prognosis assessment and the formulation of personalized treatment plans.

This study investigated the full-genome molecular characteristics of a rotavirus vaccine-derived strain,G1P[8]geno-type A group rotavirus RVA/Human-wt/CHN/HN1140/2021/G1P[8](referred to as HN1140).The gene fragments of the HN1140 strain were amplified with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)combined with whole-genome primers to obtain the full genome sequence.Genotyping was performed with the online genotyping tool RotaC 2.0,and similarity and genetic evolution analyses for each gene segment were conducted in DNAstar5.1 and MEGA11.0 software.The genotype of the HN1140 strain was deter-mined to be G1-P[8]-I2-R2-C2-M2-A3-N2-T6-E2-H3.Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that all 11 genomic segments clus-tered closely with the RotaTeq vaccine strains,sharing 99.7%-100%nucleotide sequence similarity.Notably,VP1,VP2,VP6,and NSP2-NSP5 segments showed 100%nucleotide identity with RotaTeq strains.Comparative genomic analysis identified 13 nucleotide and 8 amino acid substitutions between HN1140 and RotaTeq strains,localized within the VP7,VP4,VP1,VP2,VP3,and NSP1 segments.The HN1140 strain exhibited the genotype G1-P[8]-A3-T6-H3,which was consistent with the typical profile of a vaccine-derived reassortant.This strain demonstrated high genetic similarity to RotaTeq vaccine strains,with nucleotide sequence identity ranging from 99.7%to 100%.These findings suggested that HN1140 evolved from RotaTeq vaccine strains through genetic reassortment.

Objective To examine the changing prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Burkholderia cepacia in 52 hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were collected from 52 hospitals between January 1,2015 and December 31,2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility of the strains was tested using Kirby-Bauer method or automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems according to a unified protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released in the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)guidelines(2023 edition).Results A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were isolated from all age groups,especially elderly patients.The proportion was 11.1％(1 032 strains)in children,significantly lower than the proportion in adults.About half(46.5％,4 310/9 261)of the strains were isolated from patients at least 60 years old and 42.3％(3 919/9 261)of the strains were isolated from young adults.Most isolates(71.1％)were isolated from sputum and respiratory secretions,followed by urine(10.7％)and blood samples(8.1％).B.cepacia isolates were highly susceptible to the five antimicrobial agents recommended in the CLSI M100 document(33rd edition,2023).B.cepacia isolates showed relatively higher resistance rates to meropenem and levofloxacin.However,the resistance rates to ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,and minocycline remained below 8.1％.The percentage of B.cepacia strains resistant to levofloxacin was the highest compared to other antibiotics in any of the three age groups(from 12.4％in the patients＜18 years old to 20.6％in the patients aged 60 years or older).Conclusions B.cepacia is one of the clinically important non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria.Accurate and timely reporting of antimicrobial susceptibility test results and ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance are helpful for rational prescription of antimicrobial agents and proper prevention and control of nosocomial infections.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of clinically isolated Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis in hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021,and provide evidence for rational use of antimicrobial agents.Methods Data of H.influenzae and M.catarrhalis strains isolated from 2015 to 2021 in CHINET program were collected for analysis,and antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by disc diffusion method or automated systems according to the uniform protocol of CHINET.The results were interpreted according to the CLSI breakpoints in 2022.Beta-lactamases was detected by using nitrocefin disk.Results From 2015 to 2021,a total of 43 642 strains of Haemophilus species were isolated,accounting for 2.91％of the total clinical isolates and 4.07％of Gram-negative bacteria in CHINET program.Among the 40 437 strains of H.influenzae,66.89％were isolated from children and 33.11％were isolated from adults.More than 90％of the H.influenzae strains were isolated from respiratory tract specimens.The prevalence of β-lactamase was 53.79％in H.influenzae strains.The H.influenzae strains isolated from children showed higher resistance rate than the strains isolated from adults.Overall,779 strains of H.influenzae did not produce β-lactamase but were resistant to ampicillin(BLNAR).Beta-lactamase-producing strains showed significantly higher resistance rates to these antimicrobial agents than the β-lactamase-nonproducing strains.Of the 16 191 M.catarrhalis strains,80.06％were isolated from children and 19.94％isolated from adults.M.catarrhalis strains were mostly susceptible to both amoxicillin-clavulanic acid and cefuroxime,evidenced by resistance rate lower than 2.0％.Conclusions The emergence of antibiotic-resistant H.influenzae due to β-lactamase production poses a challenge for clinical anti-infective treatment.Therefore,it is very important to implement antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae and guide rational antibiotic use.All local clinical microbiology laboratories should actively improve antibiotic susceptibility testing and strengthen antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae.

Objective To understand the changing composition and antibiotic resistance of bacterial species in the clinical isolates from outpatient and emergency department(hereinafter referred to as outpatients)and inpatient children over time in various hospitals,and to provide laboratory evidence for rational antibiotic use.Methods The data on clinically isolated pathogenic bacteria and antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates from outpatients and inpatient children in the CHINET program from 2015 to 2021 were collected and analyzed.Results A total of 278 471 isolates were isolated from pediatric patients in the CHINET program from 2015 to 2021.About 17.1％of the strains were isolated from outpatients,primarily group A β-hemolytic Streptococcus,Escherichia coli,and Staphylococcus aureus.Most of the strains(82.9％)were isolated from inpatients,mainly SS.aureus,E.coli,and H.influenzae.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA)in outpatients(24.5％)was lower than that in inpatient children(31.5％).The MRSA isolates from outpatients showed lower resistance rates to the antibiotics tested than the strains isolated from inpatient children.The prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis or E.faecium and penicillin-resistant S.pneumoniae was low in either outpatients or inpatient children.S.pneumoniae,β-hemolytic Streptococcus and S.viridans showed high resistance rates to erythromycin.The prevalence of erythromycin-resistant group A β-hemolytic Streptococcus was higher in outpatients than that in inpatient children.The prevalence of β-lactamase-producing H.influenzae showed an overall upward trend in children,but lower in outpatients(45.1％)than in inpatient children(59.4％).The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKpn),carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPae)and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAba)was 14％,11.7％,47.8％in outpatients,but 24.2％,20.6％,and 52.8％in inpatient children,respectively.The prevalence of multidrug-resistant E.coli,K.pneumoniae,Proteus mirabilis,P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii strains was lower in outpatients than in inpatient children.The prevalence of fluoroquinolone-resistant E.coli,ESBLs-producing K.pneumoniae,ESBLs-producing P.mirabilis,carbapenem-resistant E.coli(CREco),CRKpn,and CRPae was lower in children in outpatients than in inpatient children,but the prevalence of CRAba in 2021 was higher than in inpatient children.Conclusions The distribution of clinical isolates from children is different between outpatients and inpatients.The prevalence of MRSA,ESBL,and CRO was higher in inpatient children than in outpatients.Antibiotics should be used rationally in clinical practice based on etiological diagnosis and antimicrobial susceptibility test results.Ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance and prevention and control of hospital infections are crucial to curbing bacterial resistance.

Objective To investigate the changing antibiotic resistance profiles of E.coli isolated from patients in the 52 hospitals participating in the CHINET program from 2015 to 2021.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility was tested for clinical isolates of E.coli according to the unified protocol of CHINET program.WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 20.0 software were used for data analysis.Results Atotal of 289 760 nonduplicate clinical strains ofE.coli were isolated from 2015 to 2021,mainly from urine samples(44.7±3.2)％.The proportion of E.coli strains isolated from urine samples was higher in females than in males(59.0％vs 29.5％).The proportion of E.coli strains isolated from respiratory tract and cerebrospinal fluid samples was significantly higher in children than in adults(16.7％vs 7.8％,0.8％vs 0.1％,both P＜0.05).The isolates from internal medicine department accounted for the largest proportion(28.9±2.8)％with an increasing trend over years.Overall,the prevalence of ESBLs-producing E.coli and carbapenem resistant E.coli(CREco)was 55.9％and 1.8％,respectively during the 7-year period.The prevalence of ESBLs-producing E.coli was the highest in tertiary hospitals each year from 2015 to 2021 compared to secondary hospitals.The prevalence of CREco was higher in children's hospitals compared to secondary and tertiary hospitals each year from 2015 to 2021.The prevalence of ESBLs-producing E.coli in tertiary hospitals and children's hospitals and the prevalence of CREco in children's hospitals showed a decreasing trend over the 7-year period.The prevalence of CREco in secondary and tertiary hospitals increased slowly.Antibiotic resistance rates changed slowly from 2015 to 2021.Carbapenem drugs(imipenem,meropenem)were the most active drugs amongβ-lactams against E.coli(resistance rate≤2.1％).The resistance rates of E.coli to β-lactam/β-lactam inhibitor combinations(piperacillin-tazobactam,cefoperazone-sulbactam),aminoglycosides(amikacin),nitrofurantoin and fosfomycin(for urinary isolates only)were all less than 10％.The resistance rate of E.coli strains to antibiotics varied with the level of hospitals and the departments where the strains were isolated,especially for cefazolin and ciprofloxacin,to which the resistance rate of E.coli strains from children in non-ICU departments was significantly lower than that of the strains isolated from other departments(P＜0.05).The E.coli isolates from ICU showed higher resistance rate to most antimicrobial agents tested(excluding tigecycline)than the strains isolated from other departments.The E.coli strains isolated from tertiary hospitals showed higher resistance rates to the antimicrobial agents tested(excluding tigecycline,polymyxin B,cefepime and carbapenems)than the strains from secondary hospitals and children's hospitals.Conclusions E.coli is an important pathogen causing clinical infection.More than half of the clinical isolates produced ESBL.The prevalence of CREco is increasing in secondary and tertiary hospitals over the 7-year period even though the overall prevalence is still low.This is an issue of concern.
