Objective:To explore the predictive value of a regression model based on diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) parameters for prediction of the recurrence risk in patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2)-negative early invasive breast cancer.Methods:A retrospective cross-sectional study was designed. The clinicopathological (age, histological grade, Ki-67 level, etc.) and imaging data of 50 patients (50 lesions) with ER-positive, HER-2 negative early invasive breast cancer who underwent treatment at Wuxi People′s Hospital from January 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were female, aged 29 to 81 years, and underwent pre-operation conventional MRI and DKI examinations. The volume of breast fibroglandular tissue (FGT), background parenchymal enhancement (BPE), and internal enhancement features were recorded; the peak enhancement (PH), peak enhancement rate, time to peak, mean kurtosis (MK), and mean diffusivity (MD) were calculated. Based on the 21-gene recurrence risk scores, patients were divided into low recurrence risk group and medium-high recurrence risk group. Independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test were used to compare the differences of various indicators between the two groups. Two logistic models were constructed with age, PH, MD, and MK as independent variables (Pre1), and with Ki-67, age, PH, MD, and MK as independent variables (Pre2), respectively. The efficacy of the models in predicting low recurrence risk in patients was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC). Results:There were 25 cases in the low recurrence risk group and 25 cases in the medium-high recurrence risk group. The differences in age, FGT, PH, MD, MK, and Ki-67 between the low recurrence risk group and the medium-high recurrence risk group were statistically significant (all P<0.05), while other indexes showed no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). The AUC of Pre1 in predicting low recurrence risk of ER-positive, HER-2 negative early invasive breast cancer was 0.87, with a sensitivity of 0.76 and specificity of 0.88. The AUC of Pre2 for predicting the low recurrence risk of ER-positive, HER-2 negative early invasive breast cancer was 0.92, with a sensitivity of 0.84, and specificity of 0.92. Conclusions:A multi-parameter model based on DKI can effectively predict the recurrence risk of ER-positive and HER-2 negative breast cancer. The model with combination of Ki-67 can further improve the predictive efficacy, and help effectively identify patients at low recurrence risk.

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 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 whether embolization surgery can improve mid-to-long-term outcomes related to quality of life,anxiety and depression in patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms(UIA).Methods This prospective study included patients diagnosed with UIA within 30 days.Patients were divided into two groups based on treatment:the embolization group and the conservative group.The assessments of quality of life,depression,and anxiety were conducted using the medical outcome study short form-36(SF-36),self-rating depression scale(SDS),and self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)at baseline,3 months,and 5 years after treatment.In the embolization group,psychological trauma was assessed using the impact of event scale-revised(IES-R)at 3 months and 5 years post-surgery.Results A total of 113 patients were involved in the analysis including 76 in the embolization group and 37 in the conservative group.Compared to the conservative group,SF-36 data showed that the embolization group had a lower physical function(80.3±16.4 vs.86.1±12.8,P=0.046)and role-physical(47.37±43.32 vs.67.57±34.29,P=0.015)scores at 3 months,but a higher mental health score(68.16±18.80 vs.61.62±14.62,P=0.048).At 5 years,all dimensions of SF-36 improved significantly compared to baseline(all P<0.05).The SDS and SAS scores in the embolization group were significantly lower at both 3 months and 5 years compared to baseline(both P<0.05).The decrease in SDS(-2.8±10.6 vs.0.5±6.5)and SAS(-2.7±11.8 vs.1.2±5.4)scores in the embolization group at 3 months was greater than in the conservative group(both P<0.05).Subgroup analysis showed that patients with depression or anxiety at baseline in the embolization group experienced a significant decrease in SDS and SAS scores at 3 months and 5 years compared to baseline(both P<0.05).Additionally,in the embolization group,the IES-R score at 3 months was 37.5±13.8,which was significantly higher than the critical threshold(P=0.005),but decreased to 33.8±13.3 at 5 years post-surgery.Conclusions Patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms experienced long-term improvements in quality of life after embolization surgery.Embolization surgery also helped alleviate depression and anxiety.

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 clinical and pathological characteristics of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients with intestinal Talaromycosis marneffei (TM) infection. Methods:A total of 64 AIDS patients who underwent colonoscopy in Guangzhou Eighth People′s Hospital from January, 2010 to December, 2018 were retrospectively collected. Among them, 32 patients were co-infected with TM (AIDS with intestinal TM infection group) and 32 patients were not (AIDS without intestinal TM infection group) according to the colonic mucosa pathology. The clinical manifestations and pathological differences were compared between the two groups. Nonparametric rank sum test and Fisher exact probability method were used for statistical analysis.Results:The proportions of patients presented with fever, cough, retroperitoneal lymph nodes tume faction, nausea and vomiting, abdominal muscle tension, abdominal tenderness and rebound pain in AIDS with intestinal TM infection group were 28 (87.5%), 16 (50.0%), 13 (40.6%), 9 (28.1%), 8 (25.0%), 20 (62.5%) and 12 (37.5%), respectively, which were all significantly higher than those in AIDS without intestinal TM infection group 11 (34.4%), 6 (18.8%), 3 (9.4%), 2 (6.2%), 1 (3.1%), 8 (25.0%) and 1 (3.1%), respectively, the differences were statistically significant (Fisher exact test, all P<0.05). The median counts of peripheral blood CD4 + T lymphocyte, lymphocytes, monocytes, hemoglobin, platelet and albumin in AIDS with intestinal TM infection group were 13.5/μL, 0.30×10 9/L, 0.16×10 9/L, 88 g/L, 122×10 9/L and 23.5 g/L, respectively, which were all significantly lower than those in AIDS without intestinal TM infection group 207.0/ μL, 1.35×10 9/L, 0.35×10 9/L, 128 g/L, 201×10 9/L and 37.5 g/L, respectively, the differences were all statistically significant ( Z=-6.111, -6.191, -4.273, -5.353, -2.974 and-6.666, respectively, all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that CD4 + T lymphocytes <50/μL, hemoglobin <90 g/L and fecal occult blood positive were independent risk factors for AIDS with intestinal TM infection. The main manifestations of colonoscopy in AIDS with intestinal TM infection group were discontinuous ulcers (31.2%(10/32)), erosion (31.2%(10/32)) or co-exitance of ulcer and erosion (21.9%(7/32)), while suspected tumor-like eminence lesions were less common (15.6%(5/32)). The pathological features of colon mucosa were ulcer and/or erosion (53.1%(17/32)), chronic inflammation (46.9%(15/32)) and inflammatory granuloma (43.8%(14/32)). Oval or round spore with apparent septum could be seen by special staining. In AIDS with intestinal TM infection group, 27 patients were cured or improved, five patients died or deteriorated, while all patients in the AIDS without intestinal TM infection group improved after treatment without death. Conclusions:There are no specific gastrointestinal symptoms in AIDS patients with intestinal TM infection, while the patients present with decreased immunological cells and multiple colony pathological features. Specific fungal spores can be seen.

Objective:To search for the clinical indicators in differentiating Graves′ disease from subacute thyroiditis (SAT).Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on thyroid function measurement of 265 cases of newly diagnosed Graves′ disease, 76 cases of SAT with thyrotoxicosis, 100 cases of non-toxic thyroid nodules, 105 cases of autoimmune thyroid diseases with normal thyroid function, and 151 cases of outpatients with normal thyroid function and without thyroid diseases.Results:Free triiodothyronine(FT 3)/free thyroxine(FT 4) ratio of Graves′ disease patients was significantly higher than that of SAT patients with thyrotoxicosis (0.65±0.29 vs 0.32±0.75, P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC curve) analysis of FT 3/FT 4 ratio between Graves′ disease group and SAT group showed that FT 3/FT 4 ratio greater than 0.4 with a sensitivity of 98.11% and a specificity of 83.81% for diagnosis of Graves′ disease. Conclusion:FT 3/FT 4 ratio greater than 0.4 is helpful for differentiating Graves′ disease from subacute thyroiditis with thyrotoxicosis.
