ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of growth hormone （GH） pretreatment on the clinical outcomes of in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer （IVF/ICSI-ET） in patients with diminished ovarian reserve （DOR）. MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 359 DOR patients undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET. Based on the use of GH pretreatment before ovarian stimulation and/or its addition during the stimulation cycle， patients were divided into three groups： the Control group （n=119）， receiving no GH pretreatment or addition； the Non-GH pretreatment group （n=115）， receiving GH （4 IU/d） only during ovarian stimulation without pretreatment； and the GH pretreatment group （n=125）， pretreated with GH （2 IU/d） for 4-6 weeks before stimulation and also receiving GH （4 IU/d） during stimulation. The basic characteristics， ovarian stimulation parameters， embryological data， and cumulative live birth rate （CLBR） were compared among the groups. Results① No significant differences were found among the three groups regarding female age， male age， duration of infertility， body mass index （BMI）， basal hormone levels， distribution of ovarian stimulation protocols， endometrial thickness， serum estradiol （E2） and luteinizing hormone （LH） levels on the day of HCG trigger， or the number of blastocysts transferred per cycle. ② The GH pretreatment group required significantly lower total gonadotropin （Gn） dosage and fewer days of stimulation than the Control and Non-GH pretreatment group（P<0.05）. Compared to the Control group， the GH pretreatment group showed significantly higher numbers of retrieved oocytes， the number of mature oocytes， 2-pronuclei （2PN） zygotes， 2PN cleaved embryos， transferable embryos， high-quality embryos， as well as higher cumulative clinical pregnancy rates and CLBR （P<0.05）. Compared to the Non-GH pretreatment group， the GH pretreatment group had significantly more transferable embryos， high-quality embryos， and a higher CLBR （P<0.05）. ③ Compared to the Control group， the Non-GH pretreatment group only had a significantly higher number of retrieved oocytes （P<0.05）， with no significant differences in the number of mature oocytes， 2PN fertilized oocytes， 2PN cleaved embryos， transferable blastocysts， high-quality blastocysts， cumulative clinical pregnancy rate， and CLBR. ConclusionFor DOR patients， GH pretreatment for 4-6 weeks prior to ovarian stimulation can improve oocyte yield， embryo quality， cumulative clinical pregnancy rate， and CLBR， thereby enhancing the clinical outcomes of IVF/ICSI-ET.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance of clinical isolates from elderly patients(≥65 years)in major medical institutions across China.Methods Bacterial strains were isolated from elderly patients in 52 hospitals participating in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program during the period from 2015 to 2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility test was carried out by disk diffusion method and automated systems according to the same CHINET protocol.The data were interpreted in accordance with the breakpoints recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)in 2021.Results A total of 514 715 nonduplicate clinical isolates were collected from elderly patients in 52 hospitals from January 1,2015 to December 31,2021.The number of isolates accounted for 34.3％of the total number of clinical isolates from all patients.Overall,21.8％of the 514 715 strains were gram-positive bacteria,and 78.2％were gram-negative bacteria.Majority(90.9％)of the strains were isolated from inpatients.About 42.9％of the strains were isolated from respiratory specimens,and 22.9％were isolated from urine.More than half(60.7％)of the strains were isolated from male patients,and 39.3％isolated from females.About 51.1％of the strains were isolated from patients aged 65-＜75 years.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains(MRSA)was 38.8％in 32 190 strains of Staphylococcus aureus.No vancomycin-or linezolid-resistant strains were found.The resistance rate of E.faecalis to most antibiotics was significantly lower than that of Enterococcus faecium,but a few vancomycin-resistant strains(0.2％,1.5％)and linezolid-resistant strains(3.4％,0.3％)were found in E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible S.pneumoniae(PSSP),penicillin-intermediate S.pneumoniae(PISP),and penicillin-resistant S.pneumoniae(PRSP)was 94.3％,4.0％,and 1.7％in nonmeningitis S.pneumoniae isolates.The resistance rates of Klebsiella spp.(Klebsiella pneumoniae 93.2％)to imipenem and meropenem were 20.9％and 22.3％,respectively.Other Enterobacterales species were highly sensitive to carbapenem antibiotics.Only 1.7％-7.8％of other Enterobacterales strains were resistant to carbapenems.The resistance rates of Acinetobacter spp.(Acinetobacter baumannii 90.6％)to imipenem and meropenem were 68.4％and 70.6％respectively,while 28.5％and 24.3％of P.aeruginosa strains were resistant to imipenem and meropenem,respectively.Conclusions The number of clinical isolates from elderly patients is increasing year by year,especially in the 65-＜75 age group.Respiratory tract isolates were more prevalent in male elderly patients,and urinary tract isolates were more prevalent in female elderly patients.Klebsiella isolates were increasingly resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents,especially carbapenems.Antimicrobial resistance surveillance is helpful for accurate empirical antimicrobial therapy in elderly patients.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of externally applied mirabilite combined with infrared irradiation in promoting wound healing following biliary tract surgery.Methods Patients who underwent open surgery for biliary tract disease in our department between January 2022 and April 2025 were randomly assigned to one of three groups:(1)Combination group(n=60),which received postoperative wound treatment with mirabilite application combined with infrared irradiation;(2)Mirabilite group(n=60),treated with mirabilite application alone;and(3)Infrared group(n=60),treated with infrared irradiation alone.The primary outcomes included wound healing grade on postoperative day 7,pain intensity measured on days 3,5,and 7,and wound healing status up to discharge.For cases with suboptimal healing,the duration required for complete healing following intervention was documented.Secondary outcomes encompassed length of postoperative hospital stay and Vancouver Scar Scale(VSS)scores—assessing scar pigmentation,thickness,vascularity,and pliability—evaluated at 3 months postoperatively.Results The combination group exhibited significantly lower rates of poor wound healing,shorter postoperative hospital stays,improved VSS scores—particularly in terms of scar thickness and pliability—and reduced pain levels on the 3rd and 5th postoperative days compared to the other two groups(P<0.05).Conclusions The combined use of mirabilite and infrared irradiation for surgical incisions following biliary tract surgery represents an effective,economical,and readily accessible adjuvant therapy.It significantly reduces the incidence of impaired wound healing and effectively alleviates early postoperative pain,thereby demonstrating strong potential for clinical promotion.

The scientific research and innovation capabilities of medical students are intrinsically linked to the sustained and high-quality development of national healthcare initiatives.Cultivating outstanding medi-cal students with independent scientific capabilities and innovative consciousness is a critical component in the education and training of high-level medical professionals.Our investigation revealed that within the imperfections of the cultivating model,some faculty and students at medical schools have an insufficient understanding of scientific research and innovation and lack motivation for engaging in such activities,which hinder the progression of scientific research activities.Consequently,we initiated a teaching practice and exploratory study on the"tutorial system"aimed at fostering medical students'scientific research and innovation abilities.Based on the principle of"research informing teaching,teaching and research advan-cing together,"this study implements a"tutorial system"coordinated by tutors,supplemented by graduate and undergraduate student mentors,to cultivate innovative thinking,stimulate interest in scientific re-search,and enhance practical and research skills among medical students.Through collaborative efforts within"scientific research innovation teams,"various educational methods—including preliminary re-search,in-class and extracurricular activities,intra-group and inter-group interactions,and theoretical and practical applications—are employed to improve and strengthen the cultivation of medical students'scientif-ic research and innovation abilities.This study aims to provide valuable references for optimizing medical education management systems and enhancing the quality of medical student training.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of clinically isolated Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis in hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021,and provide evidence for rational use of antimicrobial agents.Methods Data of H.influenzae and M.catarrhalis strains isolated from 2015 to 2021 in CHINET program were collected for analysis,and antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by disc diffusion method or automated systems according to the uniform protocol of CHINET.The results were interpreted according to the CLSI breakpoints in 2022.Beta-lactamases was detected by using nitrocefin disk.Results From 2015 to 2021,a total of 43 642 strains of Haemophilus species were isolated,accounting for 2.91％of the total clinical isolates and 4.07％of Gram-negative bacteria in CHINET program.Among the 40 437 strains of H.influenzae,66.89％were isolated from children and 33.11％were isolated from adults.More than 90％of the H.influenzae strains were isolated from respiratory tract specimens.The prevalence of β-lactamase was 53.79％in H.influenzae strains.The H.influenzae strains isolated from children showed higher resistance rate than the strains isolated from adults.Overall,779 strains of H.influenzae did not produce β-lactamase but were resistant to ampicillin(BLNAR).Beta-lactamase-producing strains showed significantly higher resistance rates to these antimicrobial agents than the β-lactamase-nonproducing strains.Of the 16 191 M.catarrhalis strains,80.06％were isolated from children and 19.94％isolated from adults.M.catarrhalis strains were mostly susceptible to both amoxicillin-clavulanic acid and cefuroxime,evidenced by resistance rate lower than 2.0％.Conclusions The emergence of antibiotic-resistant H.influenzae due to β-lactamase production poses a challenge for clinical anti-infective treatment.Therefore,it is very important to implement antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae and guide rational antibiotic use.All local clinical microbiology laboratories should actively improve antibiotic susceptibility testing and strengthen antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae.

Objective To understand the changing composition and antibiotic resistance of bacterial species in the clinical isolates from outpatient and emergency department(hereinafter referred to as outpatients)and inpatient children over time in various hospitals,and to provide laboratory evidence for rational antibiotic use.Methods The data on clinically isolated pathogenic bacteria and antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates from outpatients and inpatient children in the CHINET program from 2015 to 2021 were collected and analyzed.Results A total of 278 471 isolates were isolated from pediatric patients in the CHINET program from 2015 to 2021.About 17.1％of the strains were isolated from outpatients,primarily group A β-hemolytic Streptococcus,Escherichia coli,and Staphylococcus aureus.Most of the strains(82.9％)were isolated from inpatients,mainly SS.aureus,E.coli,and H.influenzae.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA)in outpatients(24.5％)was lower than that in inpatient children(31.5％).The MRSA isolates from outpatients showed lower resistance rates to the antibiotics tested than the strains isolated from inpatient children.The prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis or E.faecium and penicillin-resistant S.pneumoniae was low in either outpatients or inpatient children.S.pneumoniae,β-hemolytic Streptococcus and S.viridans showed high resistance rates to erythromycin.The prevalence of erythromycin-resistant group A β-hemolytic Streptococcus was higher in outpatients than that in inpatient children.The prevalence of β-lactamase-producing H.influenzae showed an overall upward trend in children,but lower in outpatients(45.1％)than in inpatient children(59.4％).The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKpn),carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPae)and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAba)was 14％,11.7％,47.8％in outpatients,but 24.2％,20.6％,and 52.8％in inpatient children,respectively.The prevalence of multidrug-resistant E.coli,K.pneumoniae,Proteus mirabilis,P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii strains was lower in outpatients than in inpatient children.The prevalence of fluoroquinolone-resistant E.coli,ESBLs-producing K.pneumoniae,ESBLs-producing P.mirabilis,carbapenem-resistant E.coli(CREco),CRKpn,and CRPae was lower in children in outpatients than in inpatient children,but the prevalence of CRAba in 2021 was higher than in inpatient children.Conclusions The distribution of clinical isolates from children is different between outpatients and inpatients.The prevalence of MRSA,ESBL,and CRO was higher in inpatient children than in outpatients.Antibiotics should be used rationally in clinical practice based on etiological diagnosis and antimicrobial susceptibility test results.Ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance and prevention and control of hospital infections are crucial to curbing bacterial resistance.
