ObjectiveTo investigate the present situation of input, output, outcome and impact of all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia in China, and analyze how the input predict the output, outcome and impact. MethodsFrom March 1st to April 30th, 2025, a questionnaire survey was conducted on all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia, covering four dimensions: input, output, outcome and impact. A total of 1 365 questionnaires were distributed. The input included four items: laws and policies, human resources, equipment and facilities, and rehabilitation information management. The output included two items: technical paths and benefits/effectiveness. The outcome included three items: coverage rates, rehabilitation interventions and functional results. The impact included two items: health and sustainability. Each item contained several questions, all of which were described in a positive way. Each question was scored from one to five. A lower score indicated that the situation of the community-based rehabilitation station was more in line with the content described in the question. Regression analysis was performed using the total score of each item of input dimension as independent variables, and the total scores of the output, outcome and impact dimensions as dependent variables. ResultsA total of 1 262 valid questionnaires were collected. The mean values of input, output, outcome and impact of community-based rehabilitation stations were 1.827 to 1.904, with coefficient of variation of 45.892% to 49.239%. The regression analysis showed that, rehabilitation information management, human resources, and laws and policies significantly predicted the output dimension (R² = 0.910, P < 0.001). Meanwhile, all four items in the input dimension predicted both the outcome (R² = 0.850, P < 0.001) and impact dimensions (R² = 0.833, P < 0.001). ConclusionInput, output, outcome and impact of the community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia were generally in line with the content of the questions, although some imbalances were observed. Additionally, the input of community-based rehabilitation stations could significantly predict their output, outcome and impact.

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.

Conventional X-ray coronary angiography using iodinated contrast media is the gold standard technique for diagnosing coronary artery disease and determining treatment strategies,including percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).However,severe allergy to iodinated contrast agents and renal insufficiency,as well as severely hyperthyroid patients,limit the use of iodinated contrast agents,especially in the face of acute coronary syndromes requiring emergency PCI.Gadolinium-based contrast agent is mainly developed for use in magnetic resonance imaging examinations,and there are few studies on whether it can be used for coronary angiography.We report a case of a patient who had a severe allergic reaction to an iodine contrast agent,and ultimately had a successful complex coronary intervention guided by the application of Gadolinium-based contrast agent combined with intravascular ultrasound.This case and a review of the relevant literature provide new ideas for coronary artery examination and treatment in patients with contraindications to iodine.

Objective To develop and validate a scoring system to predict the possibility of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) conversion to laparotomy based on preoperative clinical data, and to establish a grading management model of surgery. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 9 414 patients who underwent LC at Renhe Hospital and Huashan Hospital from June 2013 to June 2018. The patients were divided into two groups: the LC group (9 246 patients who successfully underwent LC) and the conversion to laparotomy group (168 patients who required conversion to open surgery). The data of two groups were compared, and the risk factors affecting conversion to laparotomy were screened out by single factor analysis of Chi-square test. Then, the risk factors were analyzed by multiple Logistic regression, and the pre-coefficient of each variable of the risk factors was assigned according to the established conversion to laparotomy possibility function. After calculating the score of each case, the difference in the actual conversion rate of each group was compared. The area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was calculated to evaluate the performance of the scoring system. According to the scoring system, LC surgical grading management model was created and verified. Results The following factors were identified as significant risk factors for conversion to laparotomy (P < 0.001): body temperature ≥ 38.5℃, frequency of acute cholecystitis ≥3 times, maximum thickness of gallbladder wall ≥ 5 mm, gallbladder neck stone incarceration, diameter of common bile duct ≥8 mm, and surgical experience ≤50 cases were the risk factors for conversion to laparotomy (P < 0.001). A score >3 points was associated with a high risk of conversion to laparotomy. Conclusions The LC scoring system and surgical grading management are reliable and effective tools for predicting and reducing the conversion rate of LC to laparotomy.

A molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor for rapid detection of tenuazonic acid(TeA)was developed based on the Au-MoS2/MOF(Fe2+/Fe3+)high-efficiency catalytic cycle amplification strategy,using p-aminobenzoic acid(PABA)as the functional monomer,and TeA as the template molecule.The molecularly imprinted polymer(MIP)was prepared on the surface of Au-MoS2/MOF(Fe2+/Fe3+)modified electrode through electropolymerization.By introducing flower-like MoS2 nanoflakes(MoS2 NFs)as a co-catalyst into a mixed-valence structured Fe-MOF(Fe2+/Fe3+),the H2O2 electrochemical signal of the MIP/Au-MoS2/MOF(Fe2+/Fe3+)/GCE was significantly enhanced.Under optimal conditions,the sensor exhibited good selectivity and high sensitivity toward TeA.A linear relationship(R2=0.992)was observed between the electrochemical response and TeA concentration in the range of 0.001-10 μg/kg,with a detection limit of 0.3 ng/kg.The developed method was successfully applied to determination of TeA in fruit samples,with recoveries ranging from 90.8%to 110.8%,and relative standard deviations from 1.9%to 8.4%.

Objective:To analyze the short-term efficacy and safety of robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy(RAPN)for non-metastatic pathological stage T 3a renal cell carcinoma. Methods:The clinical and pathological data of 45 patients with pathologically confirmed non-metastatic T 3a renal cell carcinoma who underwent RAPN at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center between January 2016 and December 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 30 males and 15 females. The average age of the cohort was(54.3±10.7)years,and the average clinical tumor diameter was(4.9±1.8)cm. Of all the patients,35(77.8%)were asymptomatic,7(15.6%)presented with hematuria,and 3(6.7%)presented with lumbar pain. Preoperative imaging assessed 34 patients(75.6%)as having clinical stage T 3a,all suspected of involving the collecting system or perirenal fat invasion;the remaining 11 patients(24.4%)were assessed as having stage T 1-2 disease. The median R.E.N.A.L. nephrectomy score was 8.0(7.0,10.0). A history of hypertension,diabetes,or chronic kidney disease was present in 18 patients(40.0%). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival,and the secondary endpoints included postoperative complications and short-term renal function outcomes. Survival curve was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method,and renal function comparisons were made using the paired t-test. Results:The RAPN was performed through a transabdominal approach in 32 patients(71.1%),with a median estimated blood loss of 150.0(50.0,300.0)ml. Seven(15.6%)patients required intraoperative blood transfusion. The median length of postoperative hospital stay was 4.0(4.0,6.0)days. Postoperative complications occurred in 6 patients(13.3%),including 5(11.1%)with mild complications and 1(2.2%)with a severe complication. Renal function returned to baseline in 24 of 39 evaluable patients(61.5%),while 3 patients(7.7%)developed surgery-related chronic kidney disease 3 to 12 months postoperatively,but none required dialysis. The median follow-up time was 31.8(22.7,50.9)months,12(26.7%)patients received programmed cell death protein 1 inhibitor adjuvant therapy postoperatively. During follow-up,3 patients experienced tumor recurrence,the 3-year progression-free survival rate of the entire cohort was 95.4%.Conclusions:For some carefully selected patients with T 3a renal cell carcinoma,RAPN performed by experienced surgeons is a feasible and safe option,providing excellent short-term oncological outcomes,complication control,and renal function recovery. The long-term efficacy remains to be seen.
