The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus aureus（MRCNS）were 39.5%（6 442/16 325）and 75.7%（12 343/16 312），respectively. No vancomycin- and teicolanin-resistant Staphylococcus were detected. The prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis were 0.5% and 0.6%，respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae（CR-KPN）were 1.9%（805/42 956）and 11.7%（3 950/33 761），respectively. The resistance rate of CR-KPN to tigecycline was 3.9%. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CR-PAE）and Acinetobacter baumannii（CR-ABA）complex were 18.4%（3 936/21 447）and 62.9%（8 649/13 744），respectively，with low resistance rate to polycolistin B（6.9% and 1.7%，respectively）. The detection rates of MRSA，CR-ABA complex，third-generation cephalosporin-resistant Escherichia coli（CTX/CRO-R-ECO）and quinolone-resistant Escherichia coli（QNR-ECO）in northern Anhui were the highest（50.3%，72.9%，59.2% and 55.6%，respectively），which were higher than those in central and southern Anhui（ χ2=112.734 and 575.069，132.747 and 233.885，93.986 and 471.209，60.062 and 230.669，all P<0.001），and the detection rate in central Anhui was higher than that in southern Anhui（ χ2=278.671，29.219，207.395 and 80.267，all P<0.001）. The detection rates of CR-KPN and thirdgeneration cephalosporinresistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CTX/CRO-R-KPN）in central Anhui were the highest（15.5% and 33.3%，respectively），which were higher than those in northern and southern Anhui（ χ2=156.237 and 325.533，76.928 and 180.686，all P<0.001），and the detection rate in northern Anhui was higher than that in southern Anhui（ χ2=32.202 and 25.539， P<0.001）. The detection rates of CTX/CRO-R-ECO and QNR-ECO were the highest in the elderly（55.2% and 55.8%，respectively），which were higher than those in children，and young and middle aged adults（ χ2=23.906 and 120.575，376.404 and 196.612， P<0.001）. The detection rate of CTX/CRO-R-KPN in neonates was the highest（57.1%），which was significantly higher than that in children，adults and the elderly（ χ2=46.141，38.843 and 32.093， P<0.001），and the detection rate in the elderly was higher than that in children and adults（ χ2=13.604 and 13.471， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS were the highest in children（42.8% and 77.8%，respectively），which were higher than those in adults（ χ2=21.766 and 10.704， P<0.001）. Except MRSA and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium and faecalis，the detection rates of major drug-resistant bacteria in tertiary hospitals were higher than those in secondary hospitals（ P<0.05 or <0.01）. Conclusion:In 2023，the situation of antimicrobial resistance in Anhui province was serious，especially in northern and central Anhui，and targeted drug resistance control measures should be taken according to the monitoring results. At the same time，it is necessary to pay attention to the bacterial resistance in the elderly，newborns and children，and strengthen the rational use of antibiotics by clinicians to curb the spread of drug-resistant bacteria.

Endoscopic data of 108 upper gastrointestinal elevated lesions caused by vascular or hemangioma compression by endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Changshu No.1 People's Hospital, Kushan Hospital of Chinese Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Changshu from December 2010 to June 2019 were retrospectively summarized. The results showed that lesions were mainly located in the esophagus [50.9% (55/108)] and stomach [47.2% (51/108)], especially in the middle [40.0% (22/55)] and upper esophagus [36.4% (20/55)], body [66.7% (34/51)] and fundus of stomach [31.4% (16/51)], respectively. The major etiology included splenic artery and aneurysm compression [29.6% (32/108)], aortic compression [23.1% (25/108)], isolated esophageal venous aneurysm compression [13.9% (15/108)] and gastric submucosal vein and venous aneurysm compression [12.0% (13/108)], with diverse endoscopic presentation. The above results suggest that elevated lesions of upper gastrointestinal tract caused by blood vessels and hemangiomas are mostly due to external vascular pressure outside the lumen, but ectopic submucosal arteries and isolated phlebangioma are not uncommon. The lesions are widely distributed with different gastroscopic manifestations. EUS is important for definite diagnosis, and can be combined with color Doppler technique, CT plain scan and angiographic reconstruction if necessary.

【Objective】 To perform quantitative analysis on the sample provincial laws and regulations for voluntary blood donation, and provide reference for further revision of laws and regulations. 【Methods】 31 study samples were current provincial laws and regulations for voluntary blood donation that can be collected from open sources. The issue date and the revision date of each sample were recorded. With "The Blood Donation Law of the People’s Republic of China" as reference, 5 categories were formed and additional clauses in samples were coded and rated following content analysis procedures. Sample provinces were divided into two groups based on donation rate and their differences in evaluation scores of categories were examined using rank sum test. 【Results】 Until December, 2021, 31 sample provinces had issued and implemented provincial laws and regulation for voluntary blood donation, and 14 of which had been revised. Many detailed clauses (total score 9.32±3.09) were added in sample provincial laws and regulations, more clauses were added in the categories of 'related government agencies and their responsibilities’, 'management of clinical blood use’ and 'rewards and punishment’. Sample provinces were divided into two groups according to the donation rate per 1 000 people recommended by World Health Organization(10‰). Compared to lower donation rate group, the total score and sub score in the categories of 'basic principles’, 'management of blood collection and supply’ were significantly higher in higher donation rate group. 【Conclusion】 In revision and improvement of provincial laws and regulations, 'basic principles’ and 'management of blood collection and supply’ could be considered. This assay mainly tries to provide a new research perspective and perform quantitative analysis on content of sample provincial laws and regulation for voluntary blood donation, the actual effect of the results in this study need longer time to be examined, and we will keep following its new advances.

Objective:To analyze the difference of immune damage between patients with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) and patients with tsutsugamushi disease.Methods:A prospective case-control study was conducted. Thirty-one patients with SFTS and 16 patients with tsutsugamushi disease admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from October 2014 to June 2017 were enrolled, and another 10 healthy people were enrolled as control. The counts of CD4 + and CD8 + T lymphocytes, and the proportion of CD3 + T lymphocytes, natural kill cells (NK cells), B lymphocytes and plasma cells were detected by flow cytometry. Thirty-four inflammatory mediators were determined by a multiplex Luminex? system synchronously. The differences of lymphocytes and cytokines between the two groups were compared. Results:The proportion of CD3 + T lymphocytes, the counts of CD4 + and CD8 + T lymphocytes in SFTS patients were significantly lower than those in patients with tsutsugamushi disease ( t values were 4.860, 9.411 and 5.030, respectively, all P < 0.01), and the proportion of NK cells and B lymphocytes were significantly higher than those in patients with tsutsugamushi disease ( t values were 2.344 and 5.896, respectively, both P < 0.05). The proportion of plasma cells in peripheral blood of SFTS patients was (7.7±1.2)%, the highest proportion of plasma cells in severe SFTS patients was up to 30%, and all patients showed λ monoclonal cell group in plasma cells. No plasma cells were detected in tsutsugamushi disease patients. The abnormal expressions of interleukin-1 receptor antibody (IL-1RA), interleukin (IL-6, IL-15, IL-10, IL-8), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), γ-interferon (IFN-γ), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), eosinophil chemotactic factor (Eotaxin), IFN-γ-inducible protein-10 (IP-10), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP-1α, MIP-1β), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-AA, PDGF-AB/BB), activated regulatory normal T cells and secretion factors (RANTES) were found in patients with SFTS and tsutsugamushi disease. The levels of IL-1RA, IL-6, IL-15, IL-10, TNF-α, IFN-γ, G-CSF, Eotaxin, IL-8, IP-10, MCP-1 and MIP-1α in SFTS patients were significantly higher than those in patients with tsutsugamushi disease ( Z values were 2.312, 2.447, 3.660, 5.444, 1.965, 2.402, 2.402, 2.997, 3.525, 2.481, 3.817, and 2.211, respectively, all P < 0.05), while PDGF-AA, PDGF-AB/BB and RANTES were significantly lower than those in patients with tsutsugamushi disease ( Z values were 3.728, 2.514, 2.649, respectively, all P < 0.05). Correlation analysis showed that RANTES, PDGF-AA and PDGF-AB/BB levels were significantly positively correlated with the level of platelet in patients with SFTS and tsutsugamushi disease (SFTS: r values were 0.223, 0.365, 0.330; tsutsugamushi disease: r values were 0.263, 0.632, 0.407, respectively, all P < 0.05). In SFTS patients, compared with the survival group ( n = 21), the CD3 + and CD4 + T lymphocytes in the death group ( n = 10) significantly decreased, while the plasma cells significantly increased ( t values were 3.980, 3.314 and 26.692, respectively, all P < 0.01); IL-1RA, IL-6, IL-15, IL-10, TNF-α, IFN-γ, G-CSF, Eotaxin, IL-8, IP-10, MCP-1, MIP-1α and MIP-1β significantly increased, while PDGF-AA, PDGF-AB/BB and RANTES significantly decreased ( Z values were 3.930, 4.014, 2.832, 3.592, 2.958, 3.508, 2.578, 3.254, 4.270, 3.465, 2.663, 3.085, 3.107, 3.639, 3.043 and 3.825, respectively, all P < 0.05). Conclusions:The immune function was impaired more seriously in SFTS patients than that in tsutsugamushi disease patients. Excessive humoral immunity and apoptosis of T lymphocytes are closely related to the death in SFTS patients. The detection of CD4 cells, plasma cells and proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines (e.g. IL-6, IL-10) had great clinical significance for the differentiation and illness evaluation in disease with SFTS or tsutsugamushi disease.

Objective To evaluate the effect of combination of uterine artery chemoembolization and curettage in treatment of caesarean scar pregnancy(CSP),and to analyze the possible influence factors.Methods 46 cases with caesarean scar pregnancy treated by the combination of uterine artery chemoembolization and curettage were retrospectively analyzed.Univariate analysis was made on the factors that might influence the efficacy,and the Logistic regression model was constructed for the significant variables.Results All of the patients were terminated pregnancy succesfully .According to the ultrasound recheck,there were no residual gestational sac tissue in 29 patients,and some residual gestational sac tissue in 17 patients.After the application of traditional Chinese medicine or methotrexate and other symptomatic treatment, the pregnancy was terminated.The univariate analysis showed that the number of cesarean section,the gestational sac volume,the gestational weeks,the type of CSP,and the condition of the fetal heart pulsation were related to the presence of residues in the uterus after treatment (P＜0.05).The multivariate analysis showed that gestational sac volume ＞9 cm3 ,gestational weeks ＞ 7 weeks and exogenous CSP were the independent factors leading to intrauterine residual gestational sac tissue.Conclusion Uterine artery chemoembolization combined with curettage is an effective method for treatment of caesarean scar pregnancy.It is proposed that clinical treatment should pay close attention to the factors that may affect the efficacy.

Objective To analyze the differences of clinical manifestations and organ damage between patients with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome(SFTS)and patients with tsutsugamushi disease,and to investigate the prognostic factors of SFTS.Methods The research was performed on 49 patients with SFTS and 16 patients with tsutsugamushi disease who visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from October 2014 to June 2017.The general information of patients including region,age,gender and clinical manifestations were evaluated.Blood routine,liver and kidney function,myocardial enzyme levels,lipase,amylase,electrolytes,C-reactive protein,procalcitonin,prothrombin time(PT)and activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT)were continuously monitored during the course of disease.T test was used for continuous variables of normal distribution,and non-parametric test was used for variables of non-normal distribution.Chi-square test was used for categorical variables.Results The mean age of SFTS patients was 62.1±15.5(ranging from 17 to 87 years)and the mean age of tsutsugamushi patients was 56.1±9.2(ranging from 47 to 73 years).There was no significant difference between the two groups(t=1.47,P=0.147).There were 25 males(51%)in SFTS patients and 8 males(50%)in tsutsugamushi disease patients.There was no significant difference between the two groups(x2=0.005,P=0.943).The incidences of headache,vomiting,superficial lymphadenectasis,disturbance of consciousness,proteinuria,hematuria,pulmonary infection,multiple organ dysfunction and acute pancreatitis in SFTS patients were all significantly higher than those in tsutsugamushi disease patients(x2=8.82,4.38,8.71,11.17,7.88,5.56,4.35,9.43,and 8.13,respectively,P <0.05 or 0.01).The counts of leukocytes(Z=2.73),neutrophils(Z=2.46),lymphocytes(Z=3.15),platelets(Z=4.25),albumin(Z=2.65)and sodium ion(t=2.10)in SFTS patients were all significantly lower than those in patients with tsutsugamushi disease(P <0.05 or 0.01).The levels of aspartate aminotransferase(Z=2.94),lactate dehydrogenase(Z=3.42),creatine kinase(CK)(Z=2.88),amylase(Z=2.11),lipase(Z=2.82),creatinine(Z=2.07)and urea nitrogen(Z=2.50)in fatal SFTS patients were all significantly higher than those in patients with tsutsugamushi disease(P <0.05 or 0.01).Among 49 SFTS patients,16 patients died and 33 patients recovered finally.The age(t=3.33),platelet count(Z=2.55),alanine aminotransferase(ALT)(Z=2.10),aspartate aminotransferase(AST)(Z=2.22),lactate dehydrogenase(Z=2.26),CK(Z=3.50),CK-MB(Z=3.10),creatinine(Z=2.17),urea nitrogen(Z=2.36),and sodium(t=2.65)between the two subgroups had significant differences(P <0.05 or 0.01).Conclusions SFTS is more severe and has high mortality,while tsutsugamushi disease has a better prognosis.Early differential diagnosis and early rational treatment are important to reduce the mortality of patients with SFTS.

BACKGROUND: The emergence of fosfomycin resistance and extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) genes is a serious threat to public health and a new challenge in shigellosis treatment. The purpose of this study was to identify fosfomycin resistance and characterize β-lactamase genes in fos-carrying isolates of Shigella flexneri from patients in China. METHODS: A total of 263 S. flexneri isolates were collected from 34 hospitals in the Anhui Province of China during September 2012-September 2015 and screened for fosA3, fosA, and fosC2 by PCR amplification and sequencing. The fos-carrying isolates were then screened for β-lactamase genes. The clonal relationships between fosA3-carrying isolates, the transmissibility of fosfomycin resistance, replicon types of plasmids carrying fosfomycin resistance genes and other associated resistance genes were investigated. RESULTS: Twenty-five of the 263 isolates (9.5%) showed resistance to fosfomycin, and 18 (6.8%) were positive for fosA3. None of the isolates was positive for fosA or fosC2. Seventeen of the isolates carrying fosA3 (94%) were CTX-M producers (seven CTX-M-55, five CTX-M-14, and five CTX-M-123), while three (16.7%) were TEM producers (TEM-1).Sixteen (88.9%) fosA3-carrying isolates exhibited multi-drug resistance. The replicon types of the 13 fosA3-carrying plasmids were IncF (n=13), IncHI2 (n=3), IncIl-Ir (n=2), and IncN (n=1). CONCLUSIONS: Our results indicated that fosA3 could spread through plasmids in S. flexneri isolates, along with the bla(CTX-M) and bla(TEM), which facilitate its quick dispersal. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of CTX-M-123-type ESBLs in S. flexneri isolates from patients in China.
