Objective: To evaluate the application of blood conservation measures in obstetric patients with different red blood cell transfusion volumes and to assess the impact of different transfusion volumes on postpartum outcomes. Methods: A retrospective investigation was conducted on 448 obstetric patients who received blood transfusions at the Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2016 to December 2022. Patients were divided into four groups (1-2 units group, 3-4 units group, 5-6 units group, and >6 units group) based on the volumes of red blood cells (RBCs) transfused during and within 7 days after delivery. The maternal physiological indicators, pre- and postpartum laboratory test indicators, obstetric complications, application of blood conservation measures, use of blood products, and postpartum outcomes were reviewed. The clinical characteristics, application of blood conservation measures, and their impact on postpartum outcomes were compared among different transfusion groups. Results: There were statistically significant differences in the multivariate logistic analysis of history of previous cesarean section (OR=1.781), eclampsia/pre-eclampsia/(OR=1.972) and postpartum blood loss>1 000 mL（OR=1.699）(P<0.05) among different transfusion groups. In terms of blood conservation measures, the more RBCs transfused, the higher the rate of mothers receiving blood conservation measures such as balloon occlusion, arterial ligation, autologous blood transfusion with a cell saver, and hysterectomy. With the increase in the volume of RBCs transfusion, the demand for fresh frozen plasma（FFP）, cryoprecipitate, and platelet transfusions also increased. The hospitalization days for the four groups of parturients were 6.0 (4.0-9.0), 7.5 (5.0-14.8), 7.0 (4.5-13.0) and 11.0 (9.0-20.5), respectively (P<0.05) and the rates of ICU transfer were 2.0% (5/250), 9.4% (12/128),18.2% (6/33) and 51.4% (19/37), respectively (P<0.05). Both increased significantly with the increase in the volume of RBCs transfusion, and the differences between groups were statistically significant. Conclusion: Parturients who received higher volume of RBCs had multiple risks factors for bleeding before childbirth, had higher postpartum blood loss, and had a higher rate of application of various blood conservation measures. In addition, an increase in the volume of RBCs transfusion may have adverse effects on postpartum recovery.

Objective:Combined retrograde tracing with optogenetic methods,we are investigating the functional role of dorsal raphe nucleus(DRN)GABAergic neurons projecting to lateral habenula(LHb)terminals in anxiety-like behaviors.Methods:The specific retrograde tracing virus AAVretro-Ef1α-DIO-mCherry was injected into the LHb of Vgat-Cre mice.After the viral expression,Multi-brain slides scanning microscope imaging scan and observe the up-stream distribution of GABAergic neural projection in LHb.By retrograde tracing,opto-activated virus AAV2/9-Ef1a-DIO-ChR2-mCherry(ChR2 group)and control virus AAV2/9-Ef1a-DIO-mCherry(mCherry group)were injected into the DRN of Vgat-cre mice respectively.Three weeks after virus expression,DRNGABA neurons and the DRNCABA-LHb neural terminals were activated by optogenetic to observe their role in anxiety-like behaviors.Results:According to the results of retrograde tracing,the midbrain DRN is one of the major GABAergic neural projection brain areas in the LHb nucleus.Optogenetic stimulation of DRNGABA neurons,compared with the mCherry group,the ChR2 group showed sig-nificantly longer total moving distance,central area moving time and distance in the open field test(OFT);In the ele-vated plus maze(EPM),the open arm moving time and distance was significantly increased.When DRN GABA-LHb neural terminals were stimulated,compared with the mCherry group,the ChR2 group showed a significantly longer cen-tral zone moving time,distance and total moving distance in the OFT.During the elevated plus maze(EPM),the open arm moving time was significantly increased.Conclusion:The specific activation of the DRNGABA neuron as well as the DRNGABA-LHb neural projections showed that both significantly improved anxiety-like behaviors in mice.This provides new ideas and evidence for the treatment of anxiety,depression and other psychiatric disorders.

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.

Objective:To explore the current situation of the intrinsic capacity of elderly people in the community and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:From September 2022 to March 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 360 elderly community residents from Xicheng District, Beijing, and Xingtai City, Hebei Province, as the research subjects. The subjects were surveyed using the Intrinsic Capacity Assessment Questionnaire, Intrinsic Capacity Influencing Factors Questionnaire, Barthel Index, and Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale.Results:A total of 360 questionnaires were distributed, and 360 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 100.0% (360/360). The overall impairment rate of intrinsic capacity among 360 elderly people in the community was 90.3% (325/360), and the impairment rates in various fields from high to low were sensation, psychology, vitality, cognition, and exercise. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age, gender, residential pattern, education level, work status, grip strength, number of geriatric syndrome, self-rated health status, adverse life events, number of social activities, transportation conditions, and social security were the influencing factors of the intrinsic capacity of elderly people in the community, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The impairment rate of intrinsic capacity among elderly people in the community is relatively high. Grassroots medical and nursing staff should assess the intrinsic capacity of elderly people in the community in health promotion work, identify elderly people with decreased intrinsic capacity early and carry out effective interventions to prevent elderly people from becoming disabled and dependent on care.

Objective:To investigate the role of GABAergic neurons in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BNST) in isoflurane-induced general anesthesia-emergence in mice.Methods:Twenty-three healthy male Vgat-Cre transgenic mice, aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 22 g, were used in the study. In the immunofluorescence staining experiment, 8 mice were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=4 each) using a random number table method: oxygen group and isoflurane group. Oxygen group inhaled oxygen at a rate of 1.0 L/min for 2 h, while isoflurane group inhaled 1.4% isoflurane + 1.0 L/min oxygen for 2 h. The animals were then sacrificed, and brain tissues were removed and subjected to immunofluorescence staining for determination of the expression of c-Fos and the rate of co-labeling with GABA neurons. For the optogenetic experiment, 15 mice were divided into 3 groups ( n=5 each) using a random number table method: control group (CON group), optogenetic excitation group (CHR2 group) and optogenetic inhibition group (eNpHR group). The rAAV-Ef1a-DIO-mCherry, rAAV-Ef1a-DIO-CHR2-mCherry, and rAAV-Ef1a-DIO-eNpHR3.0-mCherry viruses were injected to the BNST brain region. After 3 weeks of virus expression, the mice were exposed to 1.0% isoflurane + 1.0 L/min oxygen, and their cortical EEG was simultaneously monitored. When the mice reached a stable anesthetic state, optogenetic methods were utilized to modulate the viability of GABAergic neurons in the BNST brain region, and the burst suppression ratio (BSR) of the cortical EEG was recorded at 2 min before light stimulation and 2 min of light stimulation. Results:Compared with oxygen group, the rate of c-Fos co-labeling with GABA neurons in the BNST brain region was significantly reduced ( P<0.05), and the c-Fos-positive neurons were reduced in isoflurane group. Compared with CON group or with the prestimulation level, BSR was significantly decreased in CHR2 group ( P<0.001), and no significant change was found in BSR during light stimulation in eNpHR group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Decreased viability of GABAergic neurons in the BNST brain region may be involved in the process of loss of consciousness in isoflurane-anesthetized mice, while increased viability of GABAergic neurons in the BNST brain region promotes the transition from anesthesia to emergence.

Objective: To explore the prevalence and relevant factors of physical and emotional abuse by parents among children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), so as to provide basis for intervention program of children abuse. Methods: A total of 221 ASD children from 3 special education institutions in Tangshan were investigated from March to October in 2021, 395 non ASD children from two kindergartens in urban and rural areas were selected by convenient sampling. Parents of these children were invited for online and on site questionnaire survey. The self designed violence questionnaire, Childhood Autism Rating Scale and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 were used to assess violence, severity of autism, depression of parents. Chi square test, Fisher s exact probability method and Logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of violence. Results: About 81.9% of children with ASD and 72.9% of non ASD children experienced violence( P <0.05). The reported rates of physical and emotional violence in ASD children were 74.2% and 73.8% respectively, which in non ASD children were 58.7% and 65.8% respectively. There were significant differences in the 3 types of violence rate between the two groups ( P <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that boys ( OR =1.70, 95% CI =1.12-2.60), annual per capita income <10 000 yuan( OR =2.43, 95% CI =1.45- 4.08 ), and parental depression ( OR mild =11.01, 95% CI =5.38-22.49; OR moderate =69.97，95% CI =24.25-201.93) were the risk factors for child violence exposure; ASD disease ( OR=1.96，95%CI =1.32-2.92), older age ( OR=1.19, 95%CI =1.01-1.41) and parental depression( OR mild =7.83, 95% CI =3.67-16.74; OR moderate =14.37，95% CI =6.17-33.46) were risk factors for physical violence; boys ( OR =1.62, 95% CI =1.11-2.36), mothers who work in manual labor ( OR=1.68, 95%CI =1.09-2.59) and parental depression ( OR mild =7.69, 95% CI =3.74-15.81; OR moderate =25.37, 95% CI =10.80-59.63) were risk factors for emotional violence( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion The reported rate of parental violence against children with ASD is high. Mental health promotion and social support for families with ASD should be strengthened.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease with unclear etiology and limited treatment options. The median survival time for IPF patients is approximately 2-3 years and there is no effective intervention to treat IPF other than lung transplantation. As important components of lung tissue, endothelial cells (ECs) are associated with pulmonary diseases. However, the role of endothelial dysfunction in pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is incompletely understood. Sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1) is a G protein-coupled receptor highly expressed in lung ECs. Its expression is markedly reduced in patients with IPF. Herein, we generated an endothelial-conditional S1pr1 knockout mouse model which exhibited inflammation and fibrosis with or without bleomycin (BLM) challenge. Selective activation of S1PR1 with an S1PR1 agonist, IMMH002, exerted a potent therapeutic effect in mice with bleomycin-induced fibrosis by protecting the integrity of the endothelial barrier. These results suggest that S1PR1 might be a promising drug target for IPF therapy.

Objective:To observe the role of Huaiqihuang Granules (HQ) in the long-term management of bronchial asthma in young children, and the effective effect on concomitant rhinitis.Methods:A prospective real-world multicenter study was conducted in children aged 2-5 years with asthma diagnosed in the outpatient department (from April 2016 to March 2019)who received either inhaled corticosteroid (ICS)/leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA)(control group); inhaled ICS/LTRA plus HQ(combination group), or HQ alone(HQ group). All patients were followed up at week 4, 8, 12 after treatment. The number of days with asthma symptoms, the frequency of severe asthma attacks, the level of asthma control, and the days with rhinitis symptoms in the last 4 weeks were recorded. Differences before and after treatment, and those among groups after treatment were compared using Kruskal- Wallis H test or Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Results:A total of 2 234 eligible patients were recruited, and 2 147 cases completed followed-up visits, including 477, 1 374 and 296 cases in the control group, combination group, and HQ group, respectively. After the treatment, all 3 groups showed significant declines in the days with asthma symptoms, frequency of severe asthma attack and the days with rhinitis symptoms (all P<0.01), and the rate of well-controlled asthma increased significantly ( P<0.01). It lasted until the end of follow-up. Among groups, patients in the combination group showed significantly less days of asthma symptoms than those of the other 2 group at week 8 and 12[0(0, 0.9) d vs.0(0, 0.3) d, P<0.05; 0(0, 0.1) d vs. 0(0, 1.0) d, P<0.01]. Patients in the combination group and HQ group showed a significantly lower rate of severe asthma attacks than that of the control group at week 12 [0(0, 1), 0(0, 1), 0(0, 2), all P<0.05]. The well-controlled rate of asthma in the combination group was significantly higher than that of the control group and HQ group at week 8 and 12 (89.6% vs. 85.9% vs.82.1%, H=15.28; 90.9% vs. 84.1% vs. 81.8%, χ2=29.32, all P<0.01). Conclusions:HQ can significantly alleviate symptoms of asthma and rhinitis, severe attack of asthma, and increase the control rate of asthma when used as an additional treatment or used alone.

During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.

Objective:To assess the detection rates of preconception health risks among couples of reproductive age in China and analyze the differences between 2013 and 2019.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, the preconception health examination data of 9 153 916 couples of 20-49 years who participated in the National Free Preconception Health Examination Project in 2013 or 2019 were consecutively selected. The health risks involved eight aspects in women (genetic risk, reproductive risk, chronic disease risk, infectious risk, nutritional risk, behavioral risk, environmental risk and psychosocial risk) and seven aspects in men except for reproductive risks were assessed. The t test and χ2 test were used to compare the differences in demographic characteristics between the couples of reproductive age. The detection rates and 95% CI of each preconception health risk were calculated and the χ2 test was used to compare the differences in the detection rates of risk factors. Results:In 2019, the proportion of couples of reproductive age in China who were 35 years or older, had an education background of high school and above, workers, and held non-agricultural registered residence were all higher than those in 2013 (15.18% vs 6.22%, 52.12% vs 29.78%, 8.33% vs 7.17%, 12.39% vs 6.64%), while the proportion of farmers was significantly lower than that in 2013 (60.95% vs 76.87%) (all P<0.001). In 2013, the three health risks with the highest detection rate among Chinese women of reproductive age was nutritional risk (37.50%), infectious risk (16.95%) and psychosocial risk (11.62%), respectively; while in 2019, it was nutritional risk (38.07%), infectious risk (12.82%), and chronic disease risk (11.12%), respectively. The detection rate of nutritional risk in Chinese women of reproductive age in 2019 was significantly higher than that in 2013 (38.07% vs 37.50%), while the detection rates of infectious risk and psychosocial risk were both lower than those in 2013 (12.82% vs 16.95% and 7.37% vs 11.62%) (all P<0.001). In 2013, the top three risks detected in men of reproductive age was behavioral risk (44.87%), nutritional risk (36.81%) and psychosocial risk (13.43%), respectively; and in 2019, it was nutritional risk (45.47%), behavioral risk (38.76%) and psychosocial risk (9.18%), respectively. The detection rates of nutritional risk in men of reproductive age in 2019 was significantly higher than that in 2013 (45.47% vs 36.81%), while the detection rates of behavioral risk and psychosocial risk were both lower than those in 2013 (38.76% vs 44.87%, 9.18% vs 13.43%) (all P<0.001). Conclusions:The detection rate of nutritional risk in couples of reproductive age and genetic risk in men in 2019 in China are higher than those in 2013, and the exposure to the other preconception health risks is decreasing. The nutritional risk, infection risk, psychosocial risk and chronic disease risk are the main risk factors for women of reproductive age, while the nutritional risk, behavioral risk and psychosocial risk are the main risk factors for men.
