Objective To investigate the correlation between the anatomical structure of patent foramen ovale(PFO)observed by transesophageal echocardiography(TEE)and the right to left shunt(RLS)grade of contrast-enhanced transthoracic echocardiography(c-TTE).Methods Ninety cases in which the presence of PFO was suggested by TEE examination as a diagnostic criterion from November 2021 to December 2022 in the First Hospital of Nanchang were retrospectively analysed.According to the c-TTE results of patients,the RLS was divided into 4 levels,and the correlation between PFO structural characteristics and RLS grading was analyzed.Results There was a positive correlation between PFO diameter size and RLS grading in resting state(r=0.381,P<0.05);The PFO diameter of patients with hypermobile interatrial septum(HIS)was larger and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);The PFO diameter of patients with persistent RLS was larger than that of excited phase patients,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);There was no significant difference in RLS shunt degree between patients with long tunnel and those without long tunnel;There was no significant difference in RLS grade and PFO diameter size under Valsalva state.Conclusion Research has shown that certain anatomical structures of PFO interact with RLS grading,and PFO anatomical structures can also interact with each other(the opening diameter of the foramen ovale with HIS is larger);At the same time,TEE can clearly show the morphological characteristics of PFO and predict the degree of RLS,so as to further evaluate the possibility of ischemic stroke in patients with PFO,and provide more evidence for the indications for foramen ovale closure.

Objective To construct a nomogram risk prediction model for symptomatic cerebrovas-cular ischaemia based on intra-plaque neovascularisation in carotid arteries in patients with ische-mic cerebrovascular disease(ICVD).Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 320 ICVD patients who were consecutively admitted to Wuhan Fourth Hospital from April 2020 to April 2024.In a ratio of 3∶1,240 cases were assigned into a training set and 80 cases into a validation set.The patients in the training set were further divided into 147 cases in the symptomatic sub-group and 93 cases in the asymptomatic subgroup according to the presence or absence of relevant symptoms or signs.Multifactorial logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for symptomatic ischemia in ICVD patients,and a nomogram risk prediction model was construc-ted and the prediction efficacy of the model was evaluated.Results The proportions of plaque multiplicity,ulcerated plaque,stenosis ≥70％,and intra-plaque neovascularization were signifi-cantly higher in the symptomatic subgroup than the asymptomatic subgroup(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that plaque multiplicity(OR=1.261,95％CI:1.088-1.539,P=0.003),ulcerated plaque(OR=1.458,95％CI:1.132-1.661,P=0.001),and stenosis ≥70％(OR=2.023,95％CI:1.458-2.561,P=0.001),and intra-plaque neovasculariza-tion(OR=1.206,95％CI:1.057-1.489,P=0.002)were independent risk factors for the occur-rence of symptomatic cerebral ischemia in ICVD patients.H-L deviation test showed that the con-structed nomogram risk prediction model had a good fit(x2=9.362,P=0.295).Internal and ex-ternal validation showed that the calibration curves for both the training and validation sets were consistent with the original curves,and the AUC value was were 0.871 and 0.864,respectively.De-cision curve analysis showed that the model had a significant standardized clinical net benefit when the predicted risk threshold exceeded 0.01.Conclusion Ultrasonography is instructive in as-sessment of the presence or absence of intra-plaque neovascularization in carotid atherosclerotic plaques.And our constructed nomogram risk prediction model has good predictive value for the development of symptomatic cerebral ischemia.

Objective To explore the application of regional cerebral oxygen saturation(rSO2)-bispectral index(BIS)monitoring anesthesia in children undergoing surgery for supracondylar fractures of the humerus.Methods A total of 60 children with supracondylar fractures of the humerus undergoing surgery in Department of Orthopedi,Jiangxi Provincial Children's Hospital were chosen and randomly number table method segmented into control group and observation group from January 2020 to December 2022,30 cases in each group.After anesthesia,children in observation group were carried out with rSO2-BIS monitoring,while children in control group were given routine anesthesia management.Results The dosage of propofol and long chain fat emulsion/remifentanil injection in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group(P＜0.05),while there was no difference in heart rate,blood oxygen saturation and mean arterial pressure at various time points during awakening(P＞0.05);The recovery rate of postoperative analgesics of observation group was lower than that of control group,and the extubation time of observation group was shorter than that of control group(P＜0.05);The incidence of postoperative adverse reactions and behaviors in observation group were lower than those in control group(P＜0.001).The dosage of propofol and long chain fat emulsion/remifentanil injection,as the independent risk factors inducing the occurrence of postoperative adverse reactions and adverse behaviors were proved by multivariate analysis.rSO2-BIS monitoring is a key factor in reducing postoperative adverse behaviors and reactions in pediatric patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion The use of rSO2-BIS monitoring during surgery for supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children can reduce the incidence rate of postoperative adverse behaviors and adverse reactions,thereby improving postoperative efficacy.

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.
