Objective To investigate the antimicrobial susceptibility of clinical isolates of Corynebacterium striatum and the clinical characteristics of the patients infected or colonized with these strains.Methods The C.striatum strains isolated from clinical specimens were collected in Quanzhou First Hospital Affiliated to Fujian Medical University from July 2020 to September 2022.The clinical data were analyzed to examine the clinical characteristics of patients with C.striatum colonization or infection.The susceptibility of these strains to 18 antimicrobial agents were tested by broth microdilution method.The gyrA gene related to quinolone resistance determining region was amplified and sequenced to analyze the position of amino acid mutations.The ribosomal methylase gene ermX and aminoglycoside enzyme gene aphA1 were amplified by PCR and sequenced.Results Antimicrobial susceptibility testing indicated that all of the 72 strains were susceptible to vancomycin,linezolid and daptomycin.All stains were resistant to ceftriaxone,ciprofloxacin and moxifloxacin.The C.striatum strains showed high resistance rate to penicillin(87.5％),cefepime(95.8％),meropenem(95.8％),trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole(90.3％),erythromycin(98.6％)and clindamycin(98.6％),but relatively lower resistance rate to gentamycin(25.0％),tetracycline(30.6％)and rifampicin(23.6％).Sequencing analysis indicated that 3 strains of C.striatum had single mutation of gyrA gene(Ser87Val),67 strains had double mutations(Ser87Phe,Asp91Ala or Ser87Tyr,Asp91Ala)and 2 strains had three point mutations(Ser87Phe,Ala88Pro and Asp91 Ala),which was newly identified in this study.The ermXgene was detected in all of the isolates and the prevalence of aphA1 gene was 43.1％.The 72 strains of C.striatum were mainly isolated from ICU(65.2％)and lower respiratory tract specimen(91.6％).The average age of patients was 68.0±15.3 years old.About 72.2％(52/72)of the C.striatum strains were isolated from the patients with infection and 27.8％(20/72)were colonizers.Compared to the patients colonized with C.striatum,the patients with C.striatum infection had statistically significant higher percentages of hospital stay ≥ 28 days,cerebral hemorrhage,disturbance of consciousness and disease deterioration(P＜0.05).Conclusions All of the 72 C.striatum isolates were multidrug resistant,and the outcome of patients with C.striatum infection was relatively poor.

At present,some studies have identified gain-of-function(GOF)mutations in phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)genes PIK3CD(which encodes p110δ)lead to activated PI3Kδ syndrome(APDS),which can cause immune deficiency,immune dis-order and even tumor by multiple mechanisms of internal immune system defects,such as reduction/senescence/depletion of T cells,impaired development of B cells,and reduced toxicity of NK cells.Here,we review clinical characteristics of APDS induced by PI3Kδ GOF and molecular mechanism of immune deficiency,focusing on molecular mechanism of lymphocyte development,differentiation and functional defects caused by GOF mutation.

Objective:To investigate impacts of usnic acid(UA)on malignant behavior of gastric cancer cells by regulating the chemokine(C-C motif)ligand 2(CCL2)-CCL2 receptor(CCR2)signal axis.Methods:SGC-7901 cells,a well growing human gastric cancer cell line,were treated with different concentrations of UA,which were grouped into low concentration(UA-L)group(62.5 μmol/L UA),medium concentration(UA-M)group(125 μmol/L UA)and high concentration(UA-H)group(250 μmol/L UA);meantime,the cells were transfected with CCL2 overexpression vector(pc DNA3.1 CCL2),empty vector(pc DNA3.1),silenced CCL2(si CCL2)and negative control(si control),and SGC-7901 cells were treated with 250 μmol/L UA,labeled as UA-H+pc DNA3.1 CCL2 group,UA-H+pc DNA3.1 group,UA-H+si control group and UA-H+si CCL2 group,another untreated SGC-7901 cells were taken as the control group.Flow cytometry,MTT and qRT-PCR were applied to detect cell apoptosis,proliferation,and expres-sion levels of CCL2 and CCR2 mRNA;Western blot was applied to detect expression levels of PD-L1,apoptotic protein(Bax),proli-ferative protein(CyclinD1,CCL2,CCR2)and immune escape related protein(B7H1);after co-culturing with CD8+T cells isolated and cultured in vitro,ELISA was applied to detect levels of IL-4,IFN-γ and IL-10 in the supernatant.Gastric cancer cells in each group were co-cultured with activated peripheral blood mononuclear cell(PBMC)1∶1 for 72 hours,and the sensitivity of gastric can-cer cells in each group to T-cell-mediated killing was compared.Results:Compared with control group,cell proliferation rate,IL-10 level,CyclinD1,PD-L1,CCL2,CCR2 and B7H1 protein and mRNA expressions,cell counts after co-culturing with activated PBMC 1∶1 for 72 hours in UA-L group,UA-M group and UA-H group were obviously reduced,while apoptosis rate,IL-4 and IFN-γ levels,Bax protein expression were obviously increased(P<0.05);compared with UA-H+pc DNA3.1 group,cell proliferation rate,IL-10 level,CyclinD1,PD-L1,CCL2,CCR2 protein and mRNA expressions,cell counts after co-culturing with activated PBMC 1∶1 for 72 hours in UA-H+pc DNA3.1 CCL2 group were obviously increased,while apoptosis rate,IL-4 and IFN-γ levels,and Bax protein ex-pression were obviously reduced(P<0.05);compared with UA-H+si control group,cell proliferation rate,IL-10 level,CyclinD1,PD-L1,CCL2,CCR2 and B7H1 protein and mRNA expressions,cell counts after co-culturing with activated PBMC 1∶1 for 72 hours in UA-H+si CCL2 group were obviously reduced,while apoptosis rate,IL-4 and IFN-γ levels and Bax protein expression were obviously increased(P<0.05).Conclusion:UA can inhibit gastric cancer cells proliferation,immune escape,and induce apoptosis,which may be related to the inhibition of the CCL2-CCR2 signaling axis.

Critical care medicine-related treatment is an interdisciplinary and multi-professional process,often leading to secondary or concomitant mental disorders in clinical practice.Currently,there is no consensus on the pharmacological treatment of related mental illnesses in China.The Chinese Society of Psychosomatic Medicine collaborated with the Critical Care Medicine expert group to form a consensus writing expert group.After a systematic review of relevant literature,summarizing published domestic and foreign literature,and extensive discussions,the consensus was developed.The consensus elaborates on the principles and processes of the standardized use of psychotropic drugs in critical care medicine,as well as the clinical indications,precautions,and specific drug selection of various psychiatric medications,providing feasible suggestions and guidance for the clinical application of psychiatric medications in the intensive care unit.

Objective:To construct an aphasia assessment tool for Cantonese speakers.Methods:The CRRCAE framework was used to form a preliminary pool of entries. It was screened through 2 rounds of expert consultation using the Delphi technique. Eighteen experts from 13 class-3 grade-A hospitals in Guangdong Province participated.Results:The positive coefficients of the 2 rounds of consultation were 94.4% and 100%, with authority coefficients of 0.92 and 0.94, respectively. Moreover, Kendall′s W coefficient for the experts was 0.26 in the first round and 0.38 in the second, both significant at the 1% level of confidence. So agreement was good. The final assessment tool for Cantonese aphasia patients included nine first-level indicators and 30 second-level ones.Conclusions:An evaluation tool for Cantonese aphasia patients was developed which can serve as a reference for clinical diagnosis and efficacy evaluation in the clinic.

Objective:To seek any relationship between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene and blood lipid sensitivity to high-intensity interval training (HIIT).Methods:Two hundred and thirty Han Chinese college students (104 males and 126 females) who were not majoring in sports were recruited to perform a 28-minute high-intensity interval workout three times per week for 12 weeks. Before and after the intervention, blood levels of triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and total cholesterol (TC) were measured. The subjects′ DNA was genotyped to obtain SNP loci, and a linear regression model was constructed to quantify any association between ApoE genotypes and phenotypes.Results:(1) A total of 21 SNP loci were identified associated with ApoE genes, one of which (rs7412) was found to be correlated with the training effect on blood lipids. (2) The initial TT and LDL-C values of carriers of the T allele of gene rs7412 (individuals with the CT + TT genotypes) were, on average, significantly lower than those of CC genotype individuals. However, no significant differences in the initial TG and HDL-C values among different genotypes were observed. (3) After the training the average LDL-C levels among the ApoE rs7412 polymorphic groups had changed significantly, with a significantly greater decrease observed among the carriers of the T allele compared with those of CC genotype.Conclusions:ApoE polymorphism may be significantly associated with TT and LDL-C values in Han Chinese youth, with carriers of the T allele tending to display lower levels than those of CC genotype. The polymorphism of ApoE gene rs7412 may be related to LDL-C reduction through HIIT, with carriers of the T allele more sensitive to such training.

Objective To investigate the effect of pelvic floor muscle training based on timing theory in patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.Methods A total of 112 patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical resection of prostate cancer in the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University were selected as the study subjects from August 2021 to August 2022.57 patients in control group were given routine intervention measures,and 55 patients in experimental group were given pelvic floor muscle intervention based on timing theory on the basis of routine intervention measures.The intervention lasted for 1 year.The intervention effects of urinary control ability,urinary incontinence recovery rate and pelvic floor function rehabilitation were compared between two groups in each period after surgery.Results 24h after catheter removal,3 months and 6 months after the intervention,the experimental group had more advantages in urinary control score,urinary incontinence recovery rate and pelvic floor function recovery score(P＜0.05),but there was no statistical significance in the above aspects between the two groups at 12 months after the operation(P＞0.05).Conclusion The pelvic floor muscle training method based on the timing theory is scientific and feasible to a certain extent,and the intervention starts before surgery and lasts until 1 year after surgery,which significantly improves the postoperative urinary incontinence symptoms of patients with robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy within the baseline level,improves the recovery rate of urinary incontinence,and helps the early rehabilitation of patients with postoperative urinary control ability.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of non-invasive high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (nHFOV) and nasal continuous positive airway pressure ventilation (nCPAP) as transitional breathing modes after evacuation from invasive ventilation in neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS).Methods:A randomized controlled trial was conducted using PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang, and VIP databases to search for all published literature before July 2022 on the treatment of NRDS with nHFOV and/or nCPAP after invasive ventilation and weaning. We compared the success rates of the evacuation , as well as the incidence of pneumothorax, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and intraventricular hemorrhage between the nHFOV group and the nCPAP group in newborns who underwent invasive ventilation with NRDS.Results:A total of 7 randomized controlled studies were included, including 598 newborns diagnosed with NRDS who underwent tracheal intubation mechanical ventilation. The success rates of evacuating invasive ventilators for children in the nHFOV and nCPAP groups included in the article were calculated. The success rates of evacuating invasive ventilators for children in the two groups were 88.5%(231/261) and 66.5%(171/257), respectively. Compared with the nCPAP group, the success rate of evacuating invasive ventilators for children with NRDS in the nHFOV group was higher ( OR=3.93, 95% CI: 2.47-6.23, P<0.001). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, intraventricular hemorrhage, and pneumothorax between the two groups after weaning (all P>0.05). Conclusions:After weaning NRDS patients with invasive ventilation, nHFOV has a higher success rate in weaning compared to nCPAP, which is worthy of clinical application.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
