OBJECTIVE To establish management index system for rational drug use of key monitoring drugs， and provide reference for the management of key monitoring drugs in the hospitals. METHODS First， the management index system for rational drug use of key monitoring drugs was drafted by collecting the evidence from related medical literature. Next， using a modified Delphi method， twenty experienced experts from the fields of pharmacy， medical practice， healthcare insurance， and finance were selected to participate in two rounds of questionnaire consultations. Based on the expert enthusiasm coefficient， authority coefficient， degree of opinion concentration， and degree of coordination， the final indicators were determined to establish a management index system for rational drug use of key monitored drugs in medical institutions. RESULTS The expert enthusiasm coefficients reached 100% in both rounds of consultation. In first-level， second-level and third-level indicators， the authority coefficients of experts were 0.89， 0.86 and 0.87， and coordination coefficients of the experts in importance score were 0.300 （P＜ 0.05）， 0.125 （P＜0.05） and 0.139 （P＜0.05）， respectively. The average score for the importance of all indicators reached over 3.5， in which the full score ratio ranged from 35% to 100%. Except that the variation coefficient of a third-level indicator “number of specifications purchased for key monitored drugs” was 0.26， the variation coefficients of rest indicators were less than or equal to 0.25. Based on the results of expert consultation， final version of the management index system established in this study， including two first-level indicators （drug procurement and use， and rational drug use）， five second-level indicators （such as the accessibility， cost-effectiveness） and twenty third-level indicators （such as the number of specifications purchased for key monitored drugs， the increase in the cost of key monitored drugs）. CONCLUSIONS The management index system established in this study possesses high reliability and strong operability， and may provide a reference for the management of key monitoring drugs in the hospitals.

Expert consensus, as an important supplement to clinical practice guidelines, supports clinical decision-making when evidence is lacking or controversial. Compared to clinical practice guidelines, the presentation of expert consensus is more diverse. Currently, there are no reporting guidelines for expert consensus in clinical and public health decision-making. The RIGHT (Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare) checklist is the most commonly used international guideline reporting standard, and is often referred to when writing expert consensus. However, the RIGHT checklist does not include a section on consensus formation methods; while the ACCORD (ACcurate COnsensus Reporting Document) checklist includes reporting requirements for consensus formation methods, but not for reporting recommendations. Therefore, this article integrates the RIGHT and ACCORD reporting checklists and proposes an integrated reporting framework (TIMER-DO) to help authors combine these two commonly used international reporting standards and complete the standardized reporting of expert consensus.

Objective:This study aimed to compare the effects of cochlear implantation（CI） on vestibular function in patients with large vestibular aqueduct syndrome（LVAS） and in patients with extremely severe deafness with normal inner ear structure. Methods:A total of 28 LVAS patients and 28 patients with normal inner ear structure who suffered from extremely severe deafness were selected. The parameters of caloric tests, bone conduction evoked cervical vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials（cVEMP）, bone conduction evoked ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials（oVEMP） and video head impulse tests（v-HIT） were compared between the two groups before and after CI. The data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 software. Results:There was no significant difference in the results of the preoperative caloric test, v-HIT, and oVEMP（P1, N1） between the LVAS group and the control group（P>0.05）. Compared to the control group, the LVAS group exhibited a shorter cVEMP P1[（13.41±0.71）ms vs （16.28±0.89）ms, P<0.000 1], shorter N1[（19.83±0.54）ms vs （28.18±1.56）ms, P<0.000 1], higher amplitude[（123.60±83.80）μV vs （73.92±79.85）μV, P=0.049 4] and higher oVEMP amplitude[（16.60±13.87）μV vs （9.96±10.47）μV, P=0.028 5] before CI. The abnormal rate of caloric test increased in both groups after CI（25.00% vs 57.14%, P=0.028 8, 32.14% vs 82.14%, P=0.000 3, respectively）. There was no significant difference in the v-HIT parameters in both groups before and after the operation. As for the LVAS group, there was no statistically significant difference in cVEMP and oVEMP induction rates before and after operation. In the control group, there was a decrease in cVEMP induction rate（96.42% vs 64.28%, P=0.005 2） and oVEMP induction rate（96.42% vs 57.14%, P=0.000 9） after CI. LVAS group showed a shorter cVEMP P1[（13.41±0.71）ms vs （10.30±0.60）ms, P<0.000 1]; shorter cVEMP N1[（19.86±0.53）ms vs （18.97±1.33）ms, P=0.004 7]; decreased amplitude[（124.50±84.86）μV vs （64.35±61.57）μV, P=0.001 0] and shorter oVEMP amplitude[（15.92±13.03）μV vs （9.16±9.20）μV, P=0.009 9] after CI. The oVEMP N1 in the control group was longer than that before operation[（11.73 ± 0.91）ms vs （13.35 ± 2.60）ms, P=0.019 6], whereas there was no significant difference in other VEMP parameters after CI. Conclusion:Before CI, there was no significant difference in the results of the caloric test and v-HIT between the LVAS group and the control group, but the LVAS group exhibited increased sensitivity to acoustic stimulation-induced myogenic potentials. After CI, the function of the semicircular canal was impaired in both groups in the low-frequency area, and remained largely unaffected in the high-frequency area. Additionally, the function of the otolith in the LVAS group was less affected than that in the control group after CI, which may be related to the fact that the enlarged vestibular aqueduct of the LVAS patients acted as the third window of the inner ear.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) among children in Hebei from 2019 to 2023.Methods:A total of 46 576 lower respiratory tract specimens were collected from hospitalized children in the Children′s Hospital of Hebei Province from 2019 to 2023. Multiple RT-PCR and capillary electrophoresis were used to detect 13 common respiratory pathogens in the specimens, and the results were statistically analyzed.Results:The overall positive rate of RSV was 18.76%(8 739/46 576). The overall positive rates of RSV in male and female children were 18.84%(5 174/27 462) and 18.65%(3 565/19 114), respectively, showing no statistically significant difference between genders (χ 2=0.916, P=0.339). A linear relationship was found between the positive rate of RSV and age ( P<0.01). There was a significant difference in the positive rates of RSV in different years (χ 2=723.71, P<0.01). The positive rate of RSV peaked in the period from December to February from 2019 to 2021. In 2019 and 2020, the positive rates of RSV were very low from May to October, while the positive rate of RSV was above 10% throughout the whole year of 2021 and small off-season epidemics occurred in May and August. The positive rate of RSV was low in 2022, and no significant seasonal change was observed. The rate of RSV infections peaked from April to June in 2023. There were significant differences in the rates of RSV infections before, during and after the COVID-19 epidemic in each age group ( P<0.01). The rate of mixed infections was 29.20%(2 522/8 739), and the most common other respiratory pathogen was human rhinovirus (52.29%, 1 342/2 552 ). Conclusions:RSV is a common pathogen causing respiratory tract infections in children in Hebei, especially in children under 3 years old. After the COVID-19 epidemic, there are off-season RSV epidemics. Given the variations in the epidemiological features of RSV, it is necessary to carry out continuous monitoring of RSV to provide scientific data for the prevention and control of related diseases.

Objective:To investigate the distribution characteristics of cognition-related lifestyles of elderly in communities and explore the integrated effects on early cognitive decline.Methods:The participants were from the Project of Prevention and Intervention of Neurodegenerative Disease for Elderly in China. A total of 2 537 older adults aged ≥60 years without dementia in the 2015 baseline survey and the 2017 follow-up survey were included. The information about their cognition-related lifestyles, including physical exercise, social interaction, leisure activity, sleep quality, smoking status, and alcohol consumption, were collected through questionnaire survey and the integrated scores were calculated. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess the association between integrated cognition-related lifestyle score and early cognitive decline.Results:In the 2 537 older adults surveyed, 28.7% had score of 5-6, while only 4.8% had high scores for all 6 healthy lifestyles. Significant differences in healthy lifestyle factor distributions were observed between men and women. Multivariate logistic regression model showed that the risks for early cognitive decline in the older adults who had lifestyle score of 4 and 5-6 were lower than that in those with lifestyle score of 0-3 ( OR=0.683, 95% CI: 0.457-1.019; OR=0.623, 95% CI: 0.398-0.976; trend P=0.030). In the women, the risks for early cognitive decline was lower in groups with score of 4 and 5-6 than in group with score of 0-3 ( OR=0.491, 95% CI: 0.297-0.812; OR=0.556, 95% CI: 0.332-0.929; trend P=0.024). Conclusion:Cognition-related healthy lifestyles are associated with significantly lower risk for early cognitive decline in the elderly, especially in women.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Objective:To explore the relationship between white matter integrity and cognitive function in first-episode children and adolescents with schizophrenia by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI).Methods:Totally 84 children and adolescents with first-episode schizophrenia who were hospitalized in the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from September 2017 to June 2021 were selected as the study group, and 35 healthy children and adolescents matched with the study group were selected as the control group. Positive and negative symptom scale (PANSS) was used to assess the patient's mental symptoms. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) scans were performed, and the structural integrity of white matter fibers in the brain was measured by tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS), with the indicators including fractional anisotropy (FA). The Chinese version of measurement and treatment research to improve cognition in schizophrenia consensus cognitive battery (MCCB) and the Stroop color-word test were used to evaluate the cognitive function of all subjects. SPSS 26.0 software was used to analyse the data by analysis of variance, independent sample t-test, Mann Whitney U-test and Pearson correlation analysis. Results:(1)The FA values of the right superior longitudinal tract (MNI: x=49, y=-40, z=31) and the left corticospinal tract (MNI: x=-27, y=-22, z=-19) in the study group were higher than those in the control group(both P<0.05). The FA values of the bilateral cingulate gyrus (MNI: x=-7, y=25, z=14; x=20, y=-50, z=25) and the occipital part of the corpus callosum radiation line (MNI: x=-19, y=-50, z=21) in the study group were lower than those in the control group(both P<0.05).(2)The trail making test score of the study group was higher than that of the control group( t=4.344, P<0.01), and the scores of the symbol coding, Hopkins verbal learning test-revised( HVLT-R), brief visuospatial memory test-revised(BVMT-R), word fluency test, number span, maze, Stroop word, Stroop color and Stroop color words were lower than those in the control group( t=-13.041--3.204, all P<0.05). (3) The FA value of right cingulate gyrus (hippocampus) was negatively correlated with the number span ( r=-0.269, P=0.023).The FA value in occipital part of the corpus callosum radiation line was positively correlated with the symbol code ( r=0.237, P=0.047).The FA value of the left lower longitudinal bundle was negatively correlated with the Stroop color and maze ( r=-0.289, -0.275; P=0.010, 0.020).The FA value of the right inferior longitudinal fasciculus was negatively correlated with the score of maze ( r=-0.254, P=0.032). The FA value of occipital part of the corpus callosum radiation line was positively correlated with positive symptom score ( r=0.170, P=0.040). Conclusion:Cognitive dysfunction in children and adolescent with first-episode schizophrenia may be related to abnormal white matter integrity in the brain.
