Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a critical global health threat. This review systematically examines AMR surveillance technology advances, from conventional culture methods to modern molecular diagnostics (e.g., whole-genome sequencing) and artificial intelligence-assisted approaches. It focuses on the current application of mass spectrometry, machine learning predictive models, and real-time surveillance networks. To address challenges including inadequate technical standardization, clinical translation barriers, and data-sharing limitations, we propose integrated ^"genotype-phenotype^" strategies and global standardization framework, while exploring future applications of CRISPR-based portable detection, single-cell sequencing, and blockchain technologies.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of viral hepatitis mortality and life loss among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023, and to provide a basis for related prevention and control work. Methods Viral hepatitis mortality data were obtained from the Pudong New Area mortality monitoring system. The crude mortality rate (CMR), standardized mortality rate (SMR), potential years of life lost (PYLL), average years of life lost (AYLL), and standardized potential years of life lost (SPYLL) were calculated to analyze viral hepatitis deaths. The average annual change (AAPC) and annual percentage change (APC) of the mortality rate were calculated by Joinpoint regression analysis to analyze the trend of mortality. Results The CMR and SMR of viral hepatitis among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023 were 3.89/100000 and 1.98/100000, respectively. Both CMR and SMR of viral hepatitis showed a decreasing trend over time (CMR:APC=-5.476, t=-13.581, P<0.001; SMR:APC=- 7.624, t= -21.253, P<0.001). The CMR for males was 4.75/100000 and the SMR for males was 2.65/100000; the CMR for females was 3.04/100000 and the SMR for females was 1.32/100000, with a higher mortality rate for males than for females（Z_CME=12.094，P<0.001; Z_SMR=-14.718，P<0.001). Deaths were concentrated in the age groups of 45-64 years old and 65 years old and above, accounting for 91.62% of the total deaths. The PYLL of deaths due to viral hepatitis among residents in Pudong New Area from 2003 to 2023 was 26912 person-years, with a PYLLR of 0.45% and an AYLL of 8.88 years per person. Conclusion The mortality rate of viral hepatitis among the residents of Pudong New Area in 2003-2023 shows a decreasing trend over time. The mortality rate of males is higher than that of females, and the deaths of middle-aged and elderly people account for a large proportion of the total deaths. Chronic hepatitis B is the main cause of death.

Objective To explore whether miR-146b can participate in the brain injury process of diabetic rats with cerebral infarction(DM-CI)by regulating the extracellular regulatory protein kinase(ERK1/2)-activated protein-1(AP-1)signaling pathway.Methods 80 SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,DM-CI group,low miR-146b expression group and ERK1/2 inhibition group,with 20 rats in each group.The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score measures brain function in rats.The mRNA levels of miR-146b,ERK1/2 and AP-1 in rat brain tissue were detected by RT-qPCR.Western blotting detected ERK1/2,AP-1 protein levels in rat brain tissue.TTC staining was used to detect cerebral infarction volume in rats.H&E staining was used to detect brain histopathological changes.Random blood glucose levels were detected by glucose meter in rats.Results Compared with sham operation group,mRNA expression levels of miR-146b,ERK1/2 and AP-1 in brain tissue of rats in DM-CI group were significantly increased,with statistically differences(t=10.86,15.62,9.87,all P<0.05).ERK1/2 and AP-1 protein levels increased,with statistically differences(t=11.18,23.81,P<0.05).NIHSS score increased and random blood glucose level increased(t=44.49,30.02,all P<0.05),and increased cerebral infarction volume(t=51.05,P<0.05),the structure of brain tissue was disorganized and loose,and edema can be seen in the pericellular space.Compared with the DM-CI group,the mRNA expression levels of miR-146b,ERK1/2 and AP-1 in the brain tissue of rats with low expression of miR-146b were decreased,with statistically differences(t=38.00,20.03,24.25,all P<0.05).the protein expression of EPK1/2 and AP-1 decreased,and the differences were statistically significant(t=12.30,26.70,all P＜0.05).NIHSS score and random blood glucose level were decreased,with statistically differences(t=38.11,33.77,all P<0.05),cerebral infarction volume decreased(t=16.70,P<0.05),the degree of brain tissue in jury and edema was improved,and the expression levels of ERK1/2 and AP-1 protein and mRNA in brain tissue of rats inhibited by ERK1/2 were decreased,with statistically differences(t=13.61～38.00,all P<0.05),the NIHSS score of rats was decreased,and the random blood glucose level was decreased,with statistically differences(t=16.48,26.61,all P<0.05).Conclusion MiR-146b may be involved in brain functional and structural damage in DM-CI rats by regulating ERK1/2-AP-1 signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the association of spleen volume with the risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)as well as their causal relationship.Methods We included 90 NAFLD cases and 47 healthy controls who had received contrast-enhanced computed tomography(CT)scan of the abdomen at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from November 2022 to November 2023.We conducted three-dimensional reconstruction of the spleen through a deep learning network model using a two-stage coarse-to-fine segmentation approach.We compared the two groups using the two-sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test for continuous data and using the chi-square test for categorical data;evaluated the correlation between spleen volume and liver function indicators through Pearson correlation or Spearman rank correlation analyses;determined the factors influencing the development of NAFLD through multivariable Logistic regression analysis;and further assessed the casual relationship between spleen volume and NAFLD using the inverse variance-weighted two-sample Mendelian randomization(IVW-MR)method.Results Spleen volume was significantly larger in NAFLD cases than in controls(272.93±104.16 vs 204.37±81.20 cm3,P<0.001).The Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that spleen volume was positively correlated with the hepatic steatosis index(rs=0.422,P<0.001)and gamma-glutamyl transferase levels(rs=0.211,P=0.047)in patients with NAFLD.The multivariable Logistic regression analysis indicated that spleen volume was an independent risk factor for the development of NAFLD(odds ratio[OR]=1.01,95%confidence interval[CI]:1.00-1.02,P=0.049).The IVW-MR analysis detected a causal relationship between spleen volume and NAFLD(OR=1.16,95%CI:1.05-1.28,P=0.005).Conclusion Increased spleen volume may be a risk factor for the development and progression of NAFLD.Further studies are still needed to investigate the specific mechanism.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of using the Brisson technique combined with a precise measurement scheme in the treatment of hidden penis.Methods The clinical data of 120 children with hidden penis treated in our hospital from January 2021 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.The enrolled children were randomly divided into the study group(n=60)and the control group(n=60).The study group was treated with the Brisson technique combined with a precise measurement scheme,and the cutting of the penile skin was designed according to the data.The control group was treated with the traditional Devine technique.The surgical effects,penile lengths before and after surgery,and the incidence of postoperative complications of the children in the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results The effective rate of the study group reached 100％,which was significantly higher than that of the control group(93％,P＜0.05).Six months after surgery,the penile length of the children in the study group was longer than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The incidence of surgical complications in the study group was 5％,which was significantly lower than that in the control group(17％,P＜0.05).Conclusion Using the Brisson technique combined with a precise measurement scheme to treat hidden penis has a good effect,a high effective rate,and a low incidence of complications.

Objectives:To describe the use of antihypertensive, antidiabetic and lipid-lowering drugs, and evaluate the effects on blood pressure, blood glucose and blood lipids controls required by Chinese Guideline on the Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Diseases (the guideline) in a community-based cohort of individuals at high risk for cardiovascular disease. To analyze the association of the uses of antihypertensive, antidiabetic and lipid-lowering drugs, and the comprehensive control of blood pressure, blood glucose and blood lipids with cardiovascular disease. Methods:From the CHinese Electronic health Records Research in Yinzhou (CHERRY), those who were at high risk for cardiovascular disease and aged 40-75 years as of January 1, 2013 in in Yinzhou District of Ningbo, Zhejiang Province were selected as study subjects. The information about their antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and lipid-lowering drug uses between 2013 and 2015 was collected, and blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood lipid measurements were conducted during the follow-up. The study constructed two kinds of comprehensive scores: the comprehensive medication score based on the guideline requirement for the treatment of hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipidemia, dividing the study participants into the compliancy group and non-compliancy group; and the comprehensive control score based on the guideline requirement for blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood lipids control, dividing the study participants into better control group, moderate control group, and poor control group. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the association of the comprehensive medication score and comprehensive control score with cardiovascular disease. The incidence data of cardiovascular disease were collected from January 1, 2015 (baseline time) to August 31, 2020 (follow up end time).Results:A total of 79 734 participants at high risk for cardiovascular disease were included in the study, in whom 68.4%, 27.4%, and 4.2% had 1, 2, or 3 cardiometabolic conditions (hypertension, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia), respectively. In the participants with hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia from 2013 to 2015, the proportions of those who had two years of medication compliancy records were 66.0%, 67.4%, and 13.9%, respectively. In the hypertension patients, 59.2% had better blood pressure control, in the diabetes patients, 28.7% had better blood glucose control, and in the patients with hyperlipidemia, 27.4% had better blood lipid control. After a median follow-up of 5.66 years, 4 088 cardiovascular disease cases or deaths occurred. After multivariate adjustment, compared with the non-compliancy group, the compliancy group had lower risk for cardiovascular disease ( HR=0.91, 95% CI: 0.85-0.96). Compared with the better control group, the poor control group had an increased risk for cardiovascular disease ( HR=1.67, 95% CI: 1.53-1.81). In the moderate control group, the risk increased significantly in the diabetes patients ( HR=1.29, 95% CI: 1.07-1.56), while no additional risk for cardiovascular disease was observed in non-diabetes patients ( HR=1.06, 95% CI: 0.97-1.16). Conclusions:Compliancy to the medication required by the guideline is associated with lower risk for cardiovascular disease. However, it is still necessary to improve the medication compliancy in people at high risk in primary prevention, especially in the patients with hyperlipidemia, due to their low taking rate of lipid-lowering drugs. Additionally, as the requirement of the guideline becomes more stringent, the management of disease has met more challenges. Notably, diabetes patients who have not met the guideline requirement are at high risk for cardiovascular disease, to whom the disease management should be strengthened.

Objective:To investigate the impact of perceived barriers to cardiac rehabilitation on adherence to cardiac rehabilitation and the mediating effect of cardiac impact denial in elderly patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) .Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. From August 2023 to July 2024, 336 elderly patients with PCI who were discharged from the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University and needed phaseⅡ cardiac rehabilitation were selected for the study. General Information Questionnaire, Adherence of Cardiac Rehabilitation Assessment Scale in Patients with Coronary Heart Disease (ACRAS-CHD) , Cardiac Rehabilitation Barriers Scale (CRBS) , and Cardiac Denial of Impact Scale (CDIS) were used to survey the patients. Bootstrap method was used to sample 5 000 for mediating effect tests.Results:A total of 336 questionnaires were distributed and 324 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a valid recovery rate of 96.43% (324/336) . Among 324 elderly patients after PCI, ACRAS-CHD score, CRBS score, and CDIS score were (73.19±5.46) , (79.35±6.60) , and (30.57±3.66) , respectively. The direct effect of perceived barriers to cardiac rehabilitation on adherence to cardiac rehabilitation in elderly patients after PCI was -0.368, which accounted for 74.49% (-0.368/-0.494) of the total effect. The mediating effect of cardiac impact denial between perceived barriers to cardiac rehabilitation and adherence to cardiac rehabilitation in elderly patients after PCI was -0.126, which accounted for 25.51% of the total effect (-0.126/-0.494) .Conclusions:Elderly patients after PCI have poor adherence to cardiac rehabilitation. Perceived cardiac rehabilitation barriers reduce cardiac rehabilitation adherence in elderly patients after PCI, and cardiac impact denial exerts a partial mediating effect between perceived cardiac rehabilitation barriers and cardiac rehabilitation adherence.

Purpose: There is still insufficient evidence for predicting stroke risk in patients with mild carotid atherosclerotic stenosis. This study aimed to explore the association between carotid intraplaque neovascularization (IPN) in mild stenosis and ischemic stroke, using contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) imaging. Methods: This retrospective observational study included 369 patients from July 2021 to March 2022. These patients were categorized as symptomatic or asymptomatic based on their recent history of ipsilateral ischemic stroke. Initial parameters of carotid plaques, such as IPN grading and contrast enhancement index, were assessed using B-mode ultrasonography and CEUS. The follow-up period lasted 12 months or until a newly-developed ischemic stroke occurred. Logistic regression models and Cox proportional-hazards regression models were employed to explore the associations between ultrasonic parameters and the incidence of recent and future ischemic strokes. Results: In patients with mild stenosis, both increasing age and grade 2 carotid IPN were significant predictors of recent primary ischemic stroke. Furthermore, grade 2 carotid IPN independently predicted future ischemic strokes in both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients. Conclusion This study demonstrated that carotid IPN as detected by CEUS imaging holds potential as a useful non-invasive biomarker for predicting recent and future ischemic strokes in patients with mild carotid stenosis.
