Community-acquired pneumonia （CAP） refers to an infectious inflammation of the lung parenchyma （including the alveolar wall，that is，the broad pulmonary interstitium） acquired outside the hospital. Its common pathogens include streptococcus pneumoniae，respiratory viruses， mycoplasma pneumoniae， and so on. The related factors for the occurrence and development of CAP include patient characteristics （immune function，mucus production and clearance function，coagulation function，physical condition， and comorbidity） and pathogen characteristics （susceptibility，virulence，and antibiotic resistance）. The pathogenesis of CAP lies in immune deficiency，pathogen invasion，inflammatory response disorder，mucus production and clearance disorder， coagulation disorder， and so on. The pathogenesis of CAP in traditional Chinese medicine can be described as "vital Qi deficiency and toxic stasis". Vital Qi deficiency （lack of immunity） is the potential pathogenesis of the disease and easy to be invaded by external pathogens （respiratory pathogens）. Toxic stasis （inflammatory disorder，mucus production and clearance disorder，and coagulation dysfunction） is the key pathogenic factor. Vital Qi deficiency and toxic stasis are intermingled in a state of deficiency and excess，which suggests that the treatment of CAP lies in strengthening vital Qi and eliminating pathogenic factors. This involves strengthening vital Qi in the whole process to consolidate body resistance and nourish promordial Qi. It also involves clearing heat，eliminating phlegm，removing dampness，and dispelling stasis to dispel pathogenic toxins based on the syndrome differentiation. Its action mechanism is to regulate immune and inflammatory responses，resist pathogens，and improve mucus production and clearance， as well as coagulation disorders. Starting from the key pathogenesis of CAP，"vital Qi deficiency and toxic stasis"， this paper discussed the pathogenesis of CAP and summarized the action mechanism of vital Qi strengthening for detoxification in its treatment. It is intended to complement the theoretical system by identifying "vital Qi deficiency and toxic stasis" as the key pathogenesis underlying CAP and the scientific connotation of treating CAP with vital Qi strengthening for detoxification，thereby providing insights for its clinical application.

Objective To investigate the application of the Health Effective Data and Information System(HEDIS)-based phased health education in infertile patients treated with assisted reproductive technology(ART).Methods A total of 120 infertile patients who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from March 2023 to September 2023 were consecutively selected and randomly assigned to observation group or control group at a ratio of 1:1 using a random number table.During the ART treatment period,the control group was given conventional nursing care,while the observation group was given HEDIS based phased health education for nursing intervention.The negative emotion score,shame score,self-management ability score,and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results After intervention,the Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA)score and Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD)score,and self-rating scale(ISS)scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).The degree of nursing satisfaction of the observation group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The HEDIS-based phased health education can alleviate the negative emotions of anxiety and depression,reduce the sense of shame,and enhance nursing satisfaction in infertile patients during ART treatment.

BackgroundAttention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by age-inappropriate inattention， excessive activities incongruous with setting， and emotional impulsivity. Subthreshold ADHD （sADHD） is clinically defined as the presence of ADHD symptoms that do not meet the full diagnostic criteria for ADHD. Children with sADHD exhibit deficits in executive function， demonstrate more conduct， learning， and anxiety-related problems compared to typically developing children， and show even poorer working memory performance than children diagnosed with ADHD. Currently， there is limited epidemiological research on sADHD in China， with few studies simultaneously investigating the prevalence of both ADHD and sADHD in children. ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of ADHD and sADHD among children aged 6–13 years in Chongqing， analyzing their distribution characteristics within this population， with the aim of providing references for developing preventive measures against both ADHD and sADHD. MethodsFrom October to November 2023， a total of 3 398 students in grades 1–6 from six primary schools in Jiangbei District， Chongqing were selected using a stratified cluster random sampling method. The occurrence of ADHD and sADHD was evaluated by using the short version （18-item version） of the Swanson， Nolan， and Pelham IV rating scales （SNAP-IV） and the Chinese vision of Schedule for Affective Disorder and Schizophrenia for School-aged Children-Present and Lifetime Version （K-SADS-PL）. ResultsThe ADHD detection rate among children in Chongqing was 1.90% （95% CI： 0.014–0.024）. Boys showed a significantly higher ADHD detection rate than girls （χ²=7.733， P=0.005）. No statistically significant differences were found in ADHD detection rates across different grades or age groups （χ²=7.347， 12.362， P>0.05）. The sADHD detection rate was 6.32% （95% CI： 0.054–0.072）. Similarly， boys exhibited significantly higher sADHD detection rates than girls （χ²=21.005， P<0.01）. Significant differences emerged across different grades （χ²=20.559， P=0.001）， while no statistically significant difference was observed in age groups （χ²=12.070， P=0.060）. ConclusionThe ADHD detection rates were comparable across all grade levels and age groups from 6–13 years old. Second-grade children demonstrated notably higher sADHD rates compared to other grades， while boys demonstrated higher prevalence rates than girls for both ADHD and sADHD. ［Funded by Science and Health Joint Medical Research Project in Jiangbei District， Chongqing City in the Second Half of 2023 （number， 2023JBKWLH022）］

Background: Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, commonly known as “Danshen” in China due to the distinctive red color of its roots, is one of the most widely used traditional Chinese medicines. It is cultivated in various regions across China, and environmental differences among these regions can affect the secondary metabolites of plants, thereby influencing the quality of S. miltiorrhiza. In recent years, increasing demand for S. miltiorrhiza has exacerbated the problem of origin fraud. Therefore, ensuring the authenticity of its geographical origin is crucial for the sustainable development of the industry. Objective: The red coloration of S. miltiorrhiza is closely associated with the content of its primary active compounds, particularly tanshinones. Therefore, both its internal chemical composition and external color characteristics serve as key indicators for quality assessment. This study utilized hyperspectral imaging technology to evaluate its potential in classifying the geographical origin of S. miltiorrhiza. Methods: Spectral data reflecting the internal chemical properties of S. miltiorrhiza were integrated with color information representing its external features through 3 levels of data fusion. These fused datasets were then combined with deep learning algorithms to achieve accurate origin classification. Results: The results demonstrated that the Transformer model combined with soft-voting decision-level fusion achieved the highest classification accuracy of 98.72% by integrating image color and short-wave infrared spectral data. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that integrating hyperspectral imaging spectral data with color information provides a reliable and innovative approach for verifying the authenticity and traceability of S. miltiorrhiza.

Objective:Conventional myeloid cell staining methodologies were employed to stain splenocytes and peripheral blood cells by fixation and permeabilization and non-fixation and permeabilization methods,respectively,and effects of staining were compared following flow cytometry detection.Methods:Peripheral blood and spleen of three 8-week-old C57 male mice were divided into fixation and permeabilization group and non-fixation and permeabilization group for staining,and flow cytometry was used to detect mean fluorescence intensity(MFI)of each fluorescent antibody and proportion of positive cells.Results:In mouse peripheral blood samples,MFI of 7-AAD-PerCP-Cyanine5.5 and CD147-PE were lower in fixation and permeabilization group than non-fixation and permeabilization group,MFI of F4/80-FITC,MHC Class Ⅱ(I-A/I-E)-APC-R700,Ly-6c-APC-Cy7,CD206-BV421,CD45-BV510,CD11b-BV605,CD11c-BV650 and CD86-BV786 were higher than non-fixation and permeabilization group.Proportions of each immune cell in fixation and permeabilization group and non-fixation and permeabilization group were highly similar.In mouse spleen samples,MFI of antibodies in fixation and permeabilization group were higher than those in non-fixation and permeabilization group,with exception of CD147-PE,which had a lower MFI than non-fixation and permeabilization group;proportions of dendritic cells and Mon/Ly-6clow cells were lower than non-fixation and permeabilization group,whereas proportions of rest myeloid subpopula-tions were higher than non-fixation and permeabilization group.Conclusion:Fixation and permeabilization in peripheral blood cells can improve antibody MFI,but it has little effect on proportion of positive cells.Fixation and permeabilization can enhance antibody MFI in splenocytes,while effect on proportion of each positive cell is more significant.It is advised that when designing staining strate-gies,researchers attempt to choose alternative cell surface antigens for assay or optimize protocols through required pre-experiments in order to acquire stable and dependable results.

Objective:To report the nationwide surveillance results of pathogenic profiles and antimicrobial resistance patterns of Gram-positive bloodstream infections in China in 2023.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-posttive bacteria from blood cultures were collected in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）during January to December 2023. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the dilution method recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. Statistical analyses were conducted using WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software.Results:A total of 4 385 Gram-positive bacterial isolates were obtained from 60 participating center. The top five pathogens were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 544，35.2%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=1 441，32.9%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=574，13.1%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=385，8.8%），and α-hemolytic Streptococci（ n=187，4.3%）. The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）was 26.2%（405/1 544）and 69.8%（1 006/1 441），respectively. Notably，all Staphylococci remained susceptible to glycopeptide or daptomycin. Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated excellent susceptibility（>97.0%）to cephalobiol，rifampicin，trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline，tigecycline，and eravacycline. No Enterococcus exhibiting resistance to linezolid were detected. Glycopeptide resistance was uncommon but more frequent in Enterococcus faecium（resistance to vancomycin and teicoplanin：both 1.7%）compared to Enterococcus faecalis（both 0.3%）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS exhibited significant regional variations across the country（ χ2=17.674 and 148.650，respectively，both P<0.001）. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci were detected in central China. Institutional comparison demonstrated higher prevalence of MRSA（ χ2=14.111， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.828， P=0.028）in provincial hospitals than that in municipal hospitals. Socioeconomic analysis identified elevated detection rates of both MRSA（ χ2=18.986， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.477， P=0.034）in less developed regions（per capita GDP

Objective:To report the results of bacterial resistant investigation collaborative system（BRICS）on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2023，and provide reference for clinical tretment of bloodstream infections and prevention and control of bacterial resistance.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of BRICS were collected during January 2023 to December 2023. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，11 492 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 60 hospitals，of which 10 098（87.9%）were Enterobacterales and 1 394（12.1%）were non-fermentative bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（50.0%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（26.1%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（5.1%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（5.0%）and Enterobacter cloacae complex（4.1%）. The ESBL-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirablilis were 46.8%（2 685/5 741），18.3%（549/2 999）and 44.0%（77/175），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（76/5 741）and 15.0%（450/2 999）；32.9%（25/76）and 78.0%（351/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. 94.7%（72/76）and 90.2%（406/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to aztreonam/avibactam combination. Furthermore，57.9%（44/76）and 79.1%（356/450）were sensitive to imipenem/relebactam combination. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 64.6%（370/573），while more than 80.0% of CRAB complex was sensitive to tigecycline，eravacycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 17.0%（99/581）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of important Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions in China，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA and CRAB complex（ χ2=10.6，28.6，10.8 and 19.3， P<0.05）. The prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli， CREC，CRAB complex and CRKP were higher in provincial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=12.5，9.8，12.7 and 57.8，all P<0.01）. Conclusions:Gram-negative bacteria are the main pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of Klebsiella pneumoniae increases continuously with time. CRKP infection shows a slow upward trend，CREC infecton maintains a low prevalence level，and CRAB complex infection continues to exhibit a high prevalence rate. The composition and resistance patterns of pathogens causing bloodstream infections vary to some extent across different regions and levels of hospitals in China.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of TLR4/ERK1/2 signaling pathway in progesterone regulating expression of IL-8 in decidual stromal cells(DSCs).Methods:Human DSCs on early pregnancy were isolated and cultured in vitro.The cells were treated with 0.01 μmol/L,0.1 μmol/L and 1 μmol/L progesterone,respectively.Expressions of IL-8,TLR4,ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 were detected by Western blot.TLR4 inhibitor TAK-242 and ERK1/2 inhibitor U0126 were further treated,and expression of IL-8 in progesteron+inhibitor group,progesterone group and control group was detected by Western blot.Results:With the increase of pro-gesterone concentration,expression of IL-8 in DSCs decreased gradually.Expressions of DSCs IL-8,TLR4 and p-ERK1/2 in 0.01 μmol/L progesterone group were lower than those in control group(P=0.035 8,P=0.019 4 and P=0.047 1).Expressions of IL-8,TLR4 and p-ERK1/2 in DSCs in 0.1 μmol/L progesterone group were significantly lower than those in control group(P=0.003 5,P=0.004 0 and P=0.009 9).Expressions of IL-8,TLR4 and p-ERK1/2 in DSCs in 1 μmol/L progesterone group were significantly lower than those in control group(P=0.003 3,P=0.001 6 and P=0.005 0).Expression of IL-8 in progesterone+TAK-242 group was signifi-cantly lower than that in progesterone group(P=0.009 1),and expression of IL-8 in progesterone+U0126 group was significantly lower than that in progesterone group(P=0.004).Conclusion:TLR4/ERK1/2 signaling pathway is involved in the physiological process of progesterone regulating expression of IL-8 in DSCs,and progesterone reduces IL-8 expression by inhibiting expression of TLR4 and phosphorylation activation of ERK1/2.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application value of intraoperative frozen section (IFS) pathology in assessing the status of residual tissue margins during robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 26 patients from January 2024 to October 2024. The average age was (69.3±7.9) years, with an average BMI of (24.7±2.5) kg/m 2. The average preoperative PSA level was (22.7±23.0) ng/ml, and the average prostate volume was (37.4±16.1) ml. The PI-RADS scores were as follows: 15.4% (4/26) of the patients scored 3, 42.3% (11/26) scored 4, and 42.3% (11/26) scored 5, with an average PI-RADS score of (4.2±0.7). Preoperative clinical staging included 1 case of cT 1, 21 cases of cT 2, and 4 cases of cT 3. Biopsy pathology revealed Gleason scores of 6 in 19.2% (5/26) of the patients, 7 in 26.9% (7/26), 8 in 26.9% (7/26), 9 in 23.1% (6/26), and 10 in 3.9% (1/26). The overall positive biopsy core rate was 38.4% (184/479). All patients underwent RARP at our institution, and IFS was performed on residual margins at suspicious lesion sites identified by multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) during surgery. If the IFS result was positive, extended resection was performed, followed by a second IFS, until the maximum anatomical limit was reached or a negative margin was achieved. Finally, the resected prostate was examined using large-section histopathology, and the accuracy of IFS in assessing margin status was analyzed by comparing it with the large-section histopathology results. Results:Among the 26 patients, 11 had positive margins indicated by IFS or postoperative large-section histopathology. Of these, 6 patients showed positive surgical margins (PSM) on IFS, and after further extended resection, subsequent IFS results were negative. In 63.6% (7/11) of the patients, the margin results from IFS were consistent with those from postoperative large-section histopathology. Two patients had positive margins on IFS, which turned negative after further extended resection. Although postoperative large-section histopathology indicated positive margins at the posterior prostate, secondary IFS showed no residual tumor tissue, and postoperative PSA levels were all below 0.2 ng/ml. Another two patients had negative margins on IFS, but postoperative large-section histopathology revealed positive margins at some corresponding sites, with subsequent PSA levels also below 0.2 ng/ml.Conclusions:IFS can rapidly and accurately assess the margin status of residual tissue, to some extent avoiding the occurrence of positive margins.
