Objective:To analyze the drug-resistance pattern and molecular epidemiological characteristics of Enterobacteriales carrying the blaNDM gene in Lishui, aiming to guide clinical anti-infection treatment. Methods:Non-duplicate blaNDM-carrying Enterobacteriales, isolated from Lishui Central Hospital, were collected and identified by VITEK MS. The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were detected by the broth microdilution method. The ST types of the strains were determined by multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Plasmid types were identified by transformation or conjugation experiments and replication initiator amplification experiments. The transposon structures were detected by PCR amplification. Finally, the epidemic regularity of blaNDM gene in Lishui was analyzed from three levels: clonal group, plasmid, and mobile genetic elements. Results:A total of 109 blaNDM-positive strains were collected. Among them, 60 strains carried the blaNDM-1 gene and 49 strains carried the blaNDM-5 gene. The 109 strains showed 100% resistance to ceftazidime and cefotaxime. The resistance rates to peracillin-tazobactam and imipenem were higher than 80%. Strains carrying the blaNDM-5 gene were more resistant to meropenem than those carrying blaNDM-1 gene( P<0.05). A total of 68 STs were detected from 109 strains, and IncX3, IncFⅡγ, IncA/C and IncT/R plasmids were detected, and 90.83% of the blaNDM genes were located in the IncX3 plasmid. Twelve types of blaNDM gene surrounding structures existed, and they all carried the highly conserved blaNDM- bleMBL- trpF gene sequence. Conclusions:The blaNDM gene has diverse transmission modes in Lishui. The IncX3 plasmid is the main factor mediating its transfer, and all strains carry highly conserved blaNDM- bleMBL- trpF gene sequence.

Objective:To analyze the difference of clinical characteristics and outcomes of infants with moderate and severe pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome(PARDS)diagnosed according to baseline oxygenation index(OI) in pediatric intensive care unit(PICU).Methods:Second analysis of the data collected from the "Efficacy of pulmonary surfactant (PS) in the treatment of children with moderate and severe ARDS" program.Retrospectively compare of the differences in clinical data such as general condition, underlying diseases, OI, mechanical ventilation, PS administration and outcomes among infants with moderate and severe PARDS divided by baseline OI who admitted to PICUs at 14 participating tertiary hospitals from 2016 to December 2021.Results:Among the 101 cases, 55 cases (54.5%) were moderate and 46 cases (45.5%) were severe PARDS.The proportion of male in the severe group (50.0% vs.72.7%, P=0.019) and the pediatric critical illness score(PCIS)[72 (68, 78) vs.76 (70, 80), P=0.019] were significantly lower than those in the moderate group, while there was no significant difference regarding age, body weight, etiology of PARDS and underlying diseases.The utilization rate of high-frequency ventilator in the severe group was significantly higher than that in the moderate group (34.8% vs.10.9%, P=0.004), but there was no significant difference in PS use, fluid load and pulmonary complications.The 24 h OI improvement (0.26±0.33 vs.0.04±0.34, P=0.001) and the 72 h OI improvement[0.34 (-0.04, 0.62) vs.0.15 (-0.14, 0.42), P=0.029)]in the severe group were significantly better than those in the moderate group, but there was no significant difference regarding mortality, length of hospital stay and intubation duration after diagnosis of PARDS between the two groups. Conclusion:In moderate and severe(divided by baseline OI) PARDS infants with invasive mechanical ventilation, children in severe group have better oxygenation improvement in the early stage after PARDS identified and are more likely to receive high frequency ventilation compared to those in moderate group.Baseline OI can not sensitively distinguish the outcomes and is not an ideal index for PARDS grading of this kind of patient.

Objective:To analyze the phenotypes and genetic etiology of microcephaly- seizures-development delay (MCSZ) syndrome.Methods:The patient was diagnosed with MCSZ syndrome in June 2018 at Shenzhen Maternity and Child Healthcare Hospital. She was the couple's first child, and the mother conceived a second child in 2020. The clinical data of the proband were retrospectively analyzed, and the bioinformatics analysis and whole-exome sequencing (WES) were performed on the proband and her parents to identify the pathogenic variants, which were further validated using Sanger sequencing. The prenatal genetic diagnosis of the second fetus was performed following the molecular diagnosis of the proband was confirmed. The clinical manifestations and pathogenesis of MCSZ syndrome were summarized by reviewing related literature.Results:(1) Case report: The patient, an eight-month-old girl, was admitted to our hospital due to microcephaly and repeated seizures. Another clinical characteristic was mental retardation. Auditory evoked potential detected moderate impairment of the left auditory nerve pathway. WES showed a compound heterozygous variation in the PNKP gene of the proband. Moreover, the pathogenic variation, c.199-10_203delinsTCTGAGGGGT, was inherited from the father, and the likely pathogenic variation, c.1505C>T(p.P502>L), was inherited from the mother, which was both de novo mutations. The compound heterozygous variation in the PNKP gene was considered genetic etiology based on the genetic testing and clinical features. Prenatal diagnosis showed that the second fetus did not inherit the PNKP gene variants from the parents and the couples chose to continue the pregnancy. A girl was born, and her psychomotor development and occipitofrontal size circumference were normal at 13 months old. (2) Literature review: 39 MCSZ syndrome cases were retrieved, including the present case and 38 cases from 12 relevant literature. The clinical characteristics were microcephaly (91.7%, 33/36), seizures (88.2%, 30/34), development delay (96.4%, 27/28), hyperactivity (25.6%, 9/39), gastroesophageal reflux (10.3%, 4/39), and hearing loss (7.7%, 3/39). Most patients' first onset of epilepsy was in infancy (96.3%, 26/27). Cranial MRI examination showed brain dysplasia in 31 cases (91.2%, 31/34). Conclusions:When the fetal head circumference is smaller than normal and is progressively reduced combined with postnatal microcephaly, epilepsy, developmental retardation, hyperactivity disorder, gastroesophageal reflux, and hearing loss, MCSZ syndrome should be considered. The prognosis varies widely, and genetic testing facilitates the early diagnosis and genetic counseling of MCSZ syndrome.
