Objective To evaluate the rabbit modle of frozen shoulder induced by persistent strain injuries and ice com-pression.Methods Twelve clean,healthy male New Zealand rabbits with a mass of(2 500±500)g were selected and randomly divided into a blank group and a control group with 6 rabbits in each group.In the control group,the rabbits were modeled with persistent strain injuries and ice compression,the general conditions of the rabbits and the active and passive activities of the shoulder joint were observed and their body weights were recorded.MRI was performed on the affected shoulder joints at 6 d and 29 d after modelling to observe the fluid and soft tissue;HE staining was used to observe the morphology of the rabbit bi-ceps longus tendon and the synovial membrane of the joint capsule;Masson staining was used to observe the fibrous deposits of the rabbit biceps longus tendon and the synovial membrane of the joint capsule,and the fibrous deposits were analysed semi-quantitatively by Image J software.Results Six days after the end of modeling,the active movement of the shoulder joints in the control group was limited,the passive movement was not significantly limited,and they walked with a limp;29 days after the end of the modeling,the active and passive movements of the shoulder joints in the model group were severely limited.Com-pared with the blank group(2.50±0.14)kg,the body weight of the model group(2.20±0.17)kg was significantly reduced(P＜0.01).MRI showed that 6 days after modelling,the muscles around the shoulder joint were not smooth in shape,the joint cap-sule structure was narrowed and a large amount of fluid was seen in the joint cavity;29 days after modelling,the muscles around the shoulder joint were rough in shape,structure of the joint capsule was unclear and the fluid in the joint cavity was reduced compared with 6 days after modelling.Pathological staining showed that the long-headed biceps tendon fibres in the control group were disorganised,curled or even broken,and the synovial tissue of the joint capsule was heavily vascularised,with col-lagen fibre deposits and severe inflammatory cell infiltration.The fiber deposition of the long head of biceps brachii in the mod-el group[(23.58±3.41)％,(27.56±3.70)％]and synovial tissue[(41.78±5.59)％,(62.19±7.54)％]were significantly higher than those in the blank group[(1.79±1.03)％,(1.29±0.63)％]at 7 and 30 days after modeling and synovial tissue fiber de-position[(8.15±3.61)％,(11.29±7.10)％],as shown by the semi-quantitative analysis of Masson staining results by Image J software.And the longer the time,the more severe the fibrosis(P＜0.01).Conclusion The behavioral,imaging and pathological findings showed that the rabbit frozen shoulder model with persistent strain injuries and ice compression is consistent with the clinical manifestations and pathogenesis of periarthritis,making it an ideal method for periarthritis research.

Objective To investigate the expression and prognostic value of spindle and kinetochore-associated complex subunit 2(SKA2)in cervical cancer tissues,as well as its impact on the proliferation,migration and invasion of cervical cancer cells.Methods The expression of SKA2 in cervical cancer tissues was analyzed by bioinformatics database and immunohistochemical SP method,and the relationship between SKA2 expression level and clinicopathological features of cervical cancer patients and its prognostic value was analyzed.The mRNA expression of SKA2 in human normal cervical cells(HcerEpic)and cervical cancer cells(HeLa,SiHa,CaSki,C-33A)was detected by RT-qPCR.Cervical cancer cells SiHa with higher SKA2 expression level was selected for further study.SiHa cell model with down-regulated SKA2 expression was constructed,and its knockdown effect was verified.Cell proliferation capacity was detected by CCK-8 method,cell migration capacity was detected by cell scratch wound healing assay,and cell migration and invasion capacity was detected by Transwell assay.Results Compared with normal cervical tissues and cells,the expression levels of SKA2 mRNA and protein were higher in cervical cancer tissues and cells,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).High SKA2 expression was associated with FIGO staging in patients with cervical cancer.Furthermore,SKA2 knockdown could inhibit the proliferation,migration and invasion of SiHa cells in cervical cancer(P<0.05).Conclusion SKA2 is up-regulated in cervical cancer tissues and cells,and can promote the proliferation,migration and invasion of cervical cancer cells.The expression level of SKA2 is associated with the progression of cervical cancer,and the prognosis of cervical cancer patients with high SKA2 expression is worse.

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.
