ObjectiveTo investigate a suspected outbreak of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) nosocomial infection in an intensive care unit (ICU) and provide scientific evidence for prevention and control of multi-drug resistant nosocomial infection. MethodsClinical and epidemiological data of 4 patients with CRAB infection were retrospectively investigated in the ICU of Renji Hospital in November 2021. Environmental hygiene monitoring and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) were conducted and intervention measures were taken. ResultsA total of 4 cases with CRAB infection were identified, among which 1 case was determined to be community-acquired and3 cases were hospital-acquired. The isolated strains shared the same drug resistance, and were all classified into ST368 type. In the surface and hand samples (n=40), 2 CRAB strains were detected in the air filter beside the bed of the first case, with a detection rate of 5%. After adopting comprehensive prevention and control strategies, including environmental cleaning and disinfection, hand hygiene, staff management and training, and supervision, no similar case with CRAB infection was found. ConclusionThis suspected outbreak of CRAB nosocomial infection may be induced by inadequate environmental cleaning and disinfection, and inadequate implementation of hand hygiene. Timely identification, investigation, and targeted measures remain crucial to effective control of possible nosocomial infection.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and mechanism of saffron floral bio-residues(SFB) in the treatment of hyperuricemia(HUA) combined with gouty arthritis(GA) in a compound compatibility setting. MethodScreening candidate control Chinese medicines for compound and SFB based on network target distance calculation and data analysis. After adaptive feeding of 80 SD rats for 7 days, 10 rats were randomly selected as the blank group, while the remaining 70 rats were intraperitoneally injected with 3% potassium oxonate and orally administered with 1% adenine for 14 consecutive days. On the 13th day, rats were injected with 2.5% sodium urate solution into the right ankle joint cavity to induce swelling of the joint capsule on the opposite side, inducing a HUA combined with GA model. At the same time, the modeling rats were randomly divided into 7 groups, including the model group, benzbromarone group(positive drug, 0.02 g·kg-1), Tongfengshu tablets group(9 g·kg-1), Tongfengshu granules group(9 g·kg-1), SFB granules group(3.6 g·kg-1), Plantaginis Semen granules group(3.6 g·kg-1), and new formula group(SFB replacing Plantaginis Semen in Tongfengshu granules, 9 g·kg-1), with 10 rats in each group. Each treatment group was orally administered with the corresponding drugs according to body weight, while the control and model groups were given equal volume of distilled water by gavage once a day for 14 consecutive days. After 14 days of synchronous administration and modeling, changes in gait, ankle joint swelling and mechanical pain threshold in rats were observed, and serum uric acid, creatinine, urea nitrogen and xanthine oxidase(XOD) were measured. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELSIA) was used to detect the levels of tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α, interleukin(IL)-1β and IL-6 in rat serum, hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes in the liver, kidney and ankle joints of rats, Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of uric acid transporter 1(URAT1), glucose transporter 9 (GLUT9), organic anion transporter 1(OAT1), adenosine triphosphate(ATP) binding cassette transporter G2(ABCG2), and liver XOD proteins. ResultThrough network pharmacology analysis, Plantaginis Semen was selected as a candidate control herb, and Tongfengshu tablets was used as a compound compatibility environment to explore the efficacy of SFB in reducing blood uric acid levels and treating GA. Animal experiments showed that compared with the blank group, the gait score and joint swelling degree of the model group were significantly increased, and the mechanical pain threshold was significantly decreased(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the gait score, joint swelling degree and mechanical pain threshold of rats in each medication group were improved to varying degrees. Biochemical indicators showed that compared with the blank group, the serum uric acid, creatinine, urea nitrogen and XOD levels of the model group were significantly increased(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the serum uric acid and XOD levels of rats in each treatment group were significantly decreased(P<0.01). ELISA results showed that compared with the blank group, the levels of serum TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the model group were significantly increased(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the benzbromarone group, Tongfengshu tablets group, Tongfengshu granules group and new formula group were significantly reduced(P<0.05,P<0.01). Western blot results showed that compared with the blank group, the expression levels of URAT1 and GLUT9 proteins in renal tissue and OXD protein in liver tissue of the model group were significantly increased, while the expression levels of renal OAT1 and ABCG2 were significantly decreased(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the expression levels of renal URAT1 and GLUT9 in the SFB granules group, Tongfengshu granules group and new formula group were significantly decreased, while the expression levels of renal OAT1 and ABCG2 were significantly increased, and the expression of XOD protein in liver tissue was significantly decreased(P<0.05, P<0.01). Pathological analysis showed that focal infiltration of neutrophils, cell necrosis and nuclear fragmentation were observed in the liver tissue of the model group, sodium urate deposition crystals and tubular dilation appeared in renal tissue, synovial hyperplasia and inflammatory cell infiltration appeared in ankle joint. Compared with the model group, the abnormal degrees of liver, kidney and ankle joint tissue of rats in each treatment group were alleviated. ConclusionThe new formula of SFB replacing Plantaginis Semen has the same effect in the treatment of HUA combined with GA. This study proposes a new strategy to investigate the efficacy of new resources of Chinese medicine in a compound compatibility environment, which can provide a new demonstration for the research and development of new resources of Chinese medicine.

Objective:To investigate the effect and potential mechanism of exposure to 20 nm polystyrene nanoplastics (PS-NPs) on lipid metabolism in mice liver.Methods:An animal experimental model was designed, which was completed from September 2022 to July 2023 on the exposure omics platform of the School of Public Health at Capital Medical University and the Key Laboratory of Environment and Population Health at the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.1 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg PS-NPs tail vein mice exposure models were constructed. After exposure 7 d, serum was collected to measure the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST). Real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and air flow assisted desorption electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry imaging (AFADESI-MSI) analysis were used to analyze the mRNA levels of fatty acid esterification related genes ( Dgat1 and Dgat2) and lipid transport related genes ( ApoB, Cd36, ApoE and Mttp) and metabolites′ spatial changes in liver tissue. In vivo imaging system (IVIS) and tissue shake sections were employed to observe the fluorescence biological distribution of PS-NPs. t-test or one-way ANOVA was used to explore the difference between groups. Results:The serum ALT levels were (83.97±4.58), (91.17±13.69) and (142.43±6.09) U/L in the control group, 1 mg/kg PS-NPs exposure group and 10 mg/kg PS-NPs exposure group respectively ( F=37.281, P<0.05). The relative mRNA levels of Dgat1, Dgat2, ApoB, Cd36 and ApoE were (1.49±0.63, 2.53±0.32, 2.45±0.54), (1.07±0.38, 1.86±0.83, 2.23±0.73), (1.01±0.13, 1.58±0.43, 2.03±0.52), (1.01±0.14, 1.55±0.37, 1.52±0.51), (1.01±0.17, 2.11±0.27, 2.39±0.93) in these three groups respectively. The differences were statistically significant ( F=11.54, 6.95, 14.90, 5.98 and 14.68, P<0.05). AFADESI-MSI analysis found that PS-NPs exposure led to a significant decrease in the levels of glutarylcarnitine and O-Linoleoylcarnitine ( t=4.12 and 3.35, P<0.05), which were associated with lipid beta oxidation. The content of triglycerides (TG) (m/z 921.726 4, t=8.69, P<0.05; m/z 919.711 4, t=3.20, P<0.05), phosphatidylic acid (PA) (m/z 895.712 3, t=3.60, P<0.05; m/z 821.526 6, t=3.36, P<0.05), lysophosphatidylcholine (LysoPC) (m/z 560.310 6, t=3.35, P<0.05; m/z 582.295 3, t=6.28, P<0.05), phosphatidylcholine (PC) (m/z 778.533 9, t=3.53, P<0.05; m/z 804.549 6, t=3.60, P<0.05; m/z 820.523 1, t=3.37, P<0.05), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) (m/z 772.523 3, t=3.08, P<0.05) showed a significant increase in the PS-NPs exposure group. In vivo and in vitro imaging and in situ cell localization revealed that PS-NPs were mainly enriched in hepatic stellate cells and hepatic Kupffer cells in liver tissue. Conclusion:Exposure to PS-NPs induces disorder of liver lipid metabolism, which may be related to the accumulation of PS-NPs in hepatic stellate cells and hepatic Kupffer cells, providing basis for searching early biomarkers of PS-NPs exposure and further mechanism research.
