Aim To study the effects of Taohong Siwu Tang(TSD)on serum lipid metabolites in rats with abnormal uterine bleeding(AUB),and to analyze the mechanism of action of TSD in improving lipid metabo-lism disorders in AUB.Methods The rat model of AUB was replicated by the method of incomplete abor-tion with drugs,and the lipid metabolites of serum were detected by applying UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap/MS technology,and combined with the principal com-ponent analysis and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis to screen for differential lipids,the changes of lipids in serum before and after the in-tervention of TSD were clarified.Results A total of 11 differential lipids were screened,mainly phosphati-dyl inositol,phosphatidic acid,phosphatidyl ethanola-mine,phosphatidyl serine,sterol lipids,ceramide,acrylolipids and fatty acids.The screened differential lipids all tended to regress to normal after the adminis-tration of TSD intervention.Conclusion Improvement of AUB by TSD may be related to lipid metabolism such as phosphatidic acid,phosphatidyl inositol,phos-phatidyl ethanolamine,phosphatidyl serine,and ce-ramide.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. 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 software were used to analyze the data.Results:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of the remimazolam-flumazenil regimen on the emergence of patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).Methods:Eighty-four American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients, regardless of gender, aged 18-78 yr, with body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, undergoing elective ERCP under general anesthesia, were allocated into 2 groups ( n=42 each) using a random number table method: remimazolam-flumazenil group (RF group) and propofol group (P group). Anesthesia was induced as follows: Remimazolam 0.2 mg/kg and remifentanil 2 μg/kg were intravenously injected in RF group, and propofol 1.5 mg/kg and remifentanil 2 μg/kg were intravenously injected in P group. Anesthesia was maintained as follows: Remimazolam was intravenously infused at a rate of 0.5-2.0 mg·kg -1·h -1 and remifentanil at a rate of 0.1-0.2 μg·kg -1·min -1 in RF group, and propofol was intravenously infused at a rate of 2-8 mg·kg -1·h -1 and remifentanil at a rate of 0.1-0.2 μg·kg -1·min -1 in P group, maintaining a bispectral index value of 40-60. At the end of procedure, RF group received an intravenous injection of flumazenil at 0.2 mg, while P group received an equal volume of normal saline. The emergence time, laryngeal mask removal time, duration of post-anesthesia care unit stay, development of adverse events during the emergence period, patients′ satisfaction scores, endoscopists′ satisfaction scores, and 15-item Quality of Recovery scale scores at 24 h after operation were recorded. Results:Compared to P group, the emergence time, laryngeal mask removal time and duration of post-anesthesia care unit stay were significantly shortened, and the incidence of euphoria was decreased in RF group ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in the incidence of agitation, dizziness, nausea/vomiting, and re-sedation, patients′ satisfaction scores, endoscopists′ satisfaction scores, and 15-item Quality of Recovery scale scores at 24 h after operation ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared to propofol, the remimazolam-flumazenil regimen can shorten the emergence time and improve the quality of recovery when used for ERCP procedures.

AIM:To explore the mechanism by which Qingshen granules(QSG)intervene in the microRNA-4516(miR-4516)targeted regulation of the SIAH3/PINK1 axis,enhancing mitophagy and inhibiting renal fibrosis.METHODS:Male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups:control,model,and QSG groups.The QSG aqueous solution was administered via gavage once daily,4 mL each time,for 8 consecutive weeks.Blood creatinine levels were measured in each group.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)and Masson staining were utilized to assess the degree of renal patholog-ical damage.Western blot analysis was performed to determine the expression levels of β-actin,PINK1,Parkin,SIAH3,VDAC1,Mfn1,Mfn2,OPA1,LC3B,and P62 proteins in renal tissue.RT-qPCR was used to detect the mRNA expres-sion level of SIAH3 in rat kidney tissue,and transmission electron microscopy was employed to observe mitochondrial dam-age in renal tissue.QSG-containing serum and transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1)were used to induce an HK-2 cell fibrosis model.The cells were divided into the following groups:normal cell(NC)group,model cell(MC)group,MC+miR-4516 mimics group,MC+miR-4516 NC+QSG group,MC+miR-4516 mimics+QSG group,and MC+QSG group.Cell activity in each group was detected using the CCK-8 method,and Western blot analysis was performed to determine E-cad-herin and α-SMA protein expression levels.The regulation of SIAH3 by miR-4516 was verified using a dual luciferase re-porter assay.RT-qPCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of miR-4516,SIAH3 mRNA,and PINK1.RESULTS:The results indicated that QSG intervention reduced fibrosis in rat renal tissue and HK-2 cells,decreased SIAH3 mRNA expression,increased PINK1 expression,and activated mitophagy in renal tissue.In vitro results confirmed that QSG can elevate miR-4516 expression,inhibit SIAH3 mRNA expression,promote PINK1 expression in HK-2 cells,and reduce the expression of the fibrosis marker protein α-SMA.CONCLUSION:In summary,this study preliminarily clarified the mechanism by which QSG intervention targets miR-4516 to regulate the SIAH3/PINK1 axis,thereby enhancing mitophagy and inhibiting renal fibrosis.

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.

Objective To explore the relationship and internal path between activities of daily living(ADL),sleep quality and mental health of community elderly people in Shanghai.Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among community residents aged 60 years and older seeing doctors in community health care center of five streets in Shanghai during Sept to Dec,2021 using convenience sampling.Activities of Daily Living(ADL),Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)and 10-item Kessler Psychological Distress Scale(K10)were adopted in the survey.Single factor analysis,correlation analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the data.The effect relationship between the variables was tested using Bootstrap's mediated effects test.Results A total of 1 864 participants were included in the study.The average score was 15.53±4.47 for ADL,5.60±3.71 for PSQI and 15.50±6.28 for K10.The rate of ADL impairment,poor sleep quality,poor and very poor mental health of the elderly were 23.6%,27.3%,11.9%and 4.9%,respectively.ADL and sleep quality were all positively correlated with mental health(r=0.321,P＜0.001;r=0.466,P＜0.001);ADL was positively correlated with sleep quality(r=0.294,P＜0.001).Multiple linear results of factors influencing mental health showed that ADL(β= 0.457,95%CI:0.341-0.573),sleep quality(β =0.667,95%CI:0.598-0.737)and mental health were positively correlated(P＜0.001).Sleep quality partially mediated the relationship between ADL and mental health(95%CI:0.078-0.124)with an effect size of 33.0%.Conclusion Sleep quality is a mediator between ADL and mental health among community elderly people.Improving ADL and sleep quality may improve mental health in the population.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. 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 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals，of which 7 895（87.4%）were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140（12.6%）were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（ n=4 510，49.9%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（ n=2 340，25.9%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（ n=534，5.9%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（ n=405，4.5%）and Enterobacter cloacae（ n=327，3.6%）. The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%（2 095/4 452），21.0%（427/2 033）and 41.1%（58/141），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（58/4 510）and 13.1%（307/2 340）；62.1%（36/58）and 9.8%（30/307）of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 59.5%（241/405），while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 18.4%（98/534）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA（ χ2=20.489 and 20.252， P<0.001）. The prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA，CRAB，ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=11.953，81.183，10.404，5.915，12.415 and 6.459， P<0.01 or <0.05），while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions（per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan）than that in economically less-developed regions（per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=6.240， P=0.012）. Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different，and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

Objective To evaluate the molluscicidal effect and cost of spraying molluscicides with drones against Oncomelania hupensis snails in marshland and lake areas, so as to provide new insights into field snail control in China. Methods A marshland and lake setting measuring approximately 12 000 m² was selected in Wanzhi District, Wuhu City on June 2023 as the test field, and assigned to four groups, of 3 000 m² in each group. Environmental cleaning was not conducted in groups A or B, which were given 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granules sprayed with knapsack-type sprayers and drones at a dose of 40 g/m², and environmental cleaning was conducted in groups C and D, which were given 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granules sprayed with drones and knapsack-type sprayers at a dose of 40 g/m², respectively. O. hupensis snails were surveyed before chemical treatment and 1, 3, 5, 7, 14 days post-treatment. The uniformity of chemicals was determined on the day of treatment, and the snail mortality, corrected snail mortality and density of living snails were calculated and compared among groups. The cost of molluscicides, labor fees of environmental cleaning and chemical treatment and cost of equipment were calculated, and the cost for a 1% reduction in the mean density of living snails was calculated 14 days post-treatment. Results The mean densities of living snails and mortality rates of snails were 1.82 to 2.85 snails/0.1 m² and 1.41% to 2.94% in groups A, B, C and D before chemical treatment, and the mortality and corrected mortality of snails were 55.75%, 49.32%, 85.94% and 87.50%, and 55.00%, 48.47%, 85.70% and 87.29% in groups A, B, C and D 14 days post-treatment. There was a significant difference in the mortality of snails among the four groups 14 days post-treatment (χ² = 38.735, P < 0.005), and there was a higher snail mortality in Group D than in Group A (χ² = 16.876, P < 0.005), and higher in Group C than in Group B (χ² = 20.508, P < 0.005). The density of living snails reduced by 55.00%, 43.94%, 90.43% and 87.14% 14 days post-treatment relative to pre-treatment in groups A, B, C and D, respectively. The test for uniformity of chemicals showed that the mean dose of molluscicides were 57.34, 55.21, 40.19 g/m² and 32.37 g/m² in groups A, B, C and D, respectively, and the minimal standard deviation (7.07) and coefficient of variation (0.18) of mean doses were seen in Group C. The costs for chemical treatment were 0.33 Yuan in groups A and B and 1.53 Yuan in groups C and D, respectively. The costs for a 1% reduction in the mean density of living snails were 17.82, 22.47, 50.73 Yuan and 52.56 Yuan in groups A, B, C, and D 14 days post-treatment, respectively. Conclusions The molluscicidal effect and cost of spraying 5% niclosamide ethanolamine salt granules with drones are comparable to manual spraying, and chemical treatment with drones are high in uniformity of molluscicides, time- and labor-saving, and feasible for applications in complex environments, which deserves widespread applications in the field of snail control.
