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 investigate the prevalence and risk factors of overweight and obesity among Chinese children aged 3-18 years from 11 provinces, antonomous regions, or municipalities.Methods:This national cross-sectional community health survey utilized a multistage stratified cluster-random sampling method to recruit 193 997 nationally representative participants from 11 provinces, autonomous regions, or municipalities between January 2017 and December 2019. All participants underwent physical examinations, and their caregivers completed questionnaires assessing participants′ dietary, lifestyle, familial, and perinatal information. Multilevel multinomial logistic regression models were employed to identify the potential risk factors.Results:The cohort comprised 193 997 children (102 178 boys, 91 819 girls),aged (10±4) years. Overall prevalence rates were 30 574(15.8%)overweight children and 17 217(8.9%) obesity children. Boys exhibited higher overweight and obesity rates than girls (17.0% (17 368/102 178) vs. 14.4% (13 206/102 178), 11.3% (11 553/91 819) vs. 6.2% (5 664/91 819), χ2=249.12,1 578.69,both P<0.001). The detection rates of obesity in Tanner stage 2 and 3 were the highest in boys and girls, with 13.4%(2 231/16 665) and 8.6%(880/10 221) respectively. Risk factors for obesity included parental overweight (paternal OR=2.34 and maternal OR=2.29), annual household income of 100 000-200 000 yuan (compared with<100 000 yuan, OR=1.04), higher paternal education (compared with below high school,high school and a college education OR=1.09,1.14), birth weight >4.0 kg (≤5 and>5 years old OR=1.74, 1.44,respectively), and western food consumption≥1 time/month (compared with<1, 1-2, 3-4,>4 times/month OR=1.36, 1.30, 1.67(≤5 years), 1.19, 1.16, 1.15 (>5 years), respectively) (all P<0.05). Conversely, coarse grain intake≥1 times/week (compared with<1 times/week, every day, 3-4, 1-2 times/week OR=0.74, 0.80, 0.71 (≤5 years), 0.75, 0.87, 0.90(>5 years), respectively, all P<0.05) was associated with reduced obesity risk. Conclusions:Obesity epidemiology in children demonstrates significant heterogeneity across age, gender, geographic regions, and pubertal stages. It is necessary to establish a personalized prevention and control strategy.

Objective:To evaluate the early-to-mid-term efficacy of supramalleolar osteotomy (SMO) in the treatment of traumatic ankle arthritis secondary to peri-ankle fracture.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 29 patients who had been treated for traumatic ankle arthritis secondary to old peri-ankle fracture by SMO from March 2018 to March 2023 at Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital. There were 14 males and 15 females, 39.0 (25.0, 49.0) years in age. Types of old fracture: 4 lower tibiofibular fractures, 19 ankle fractures, and 6 pilon fractures. Surgery was conducted for 16 cases and conservative treatment for the remaining 13 cases. The interval between the old fracture and the current surgery was 10.0 (2.0, 19.5) years. The clinical efficacy was evaluated using the ankle-hindfoot score of American Association of Foot and Ankle Surgery (AOFAS), foot function index (FFI), and visual analog scale (VAS) pain score. Imaging analysis was conducted and imaging comparisons were made between pre-surgery and post-surgery in terms of tibial anterior surface (TAS) angle, tibial lateral surface (TLS) angle, talar tilt (TT) angle, and changes in modified Takakura staging. Complications were recorded. Surgical satisfaction was investigated at the final follow-up.Results:The 29 patients were followed up for 17.0 (14.0, 23.5) months. The AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score [(84.2±9.6) points], FFI [7.0 (3.0, 10.9) points], VAS pain score [2.0 (1.0, 3.0) points], and TAS angle [90.84° (86.70°, 92.50°)] at the final follow-up for all patients were significantly better than the pre-surgery values [(68.0±16.7) points, 20.9 (6.1, 29.1) points, 5.0 (2.0, 8.0) points, and 78.63° (74.30°, 85.00°)] (all P<0.05). At the final follow-up, the ankle arthritis grading did not show any significant change ( P>0.05) and there were no significant differences in TT angle or TLS angle between pre-surgery and post-surgery ( P>0.05). Incision failed to heal in 1 case, incision healing was delayed in 3 cases, and ankle arthritis progressed on imaging in 6 cases. As for patient self-assessed satisfaction, 23 cases felt very satisfactory, 4 cases quite satisfactory, and 2 cases common, giving an overall satisfaction rate of 93.1% (27/29). Conclusions:SMO has led to good early-to-mid-term efficacy in the treatment of traumatic ankle arthritis secondary to peri-ankle fracture, showing obvious pain relief and functional improvement after correction of the ankle joint alignment, limited postoperative complactions and a high rate of patient satisfaction.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of immune checkpoint inhibitor-related diabetes mellitus(ICI-DM).Methods The clinical characteristics,laboratory examinations,treatment regimens,and follow-up outcomes of 10 ICI-DM patients who were diagnosed and treated in the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital between July 2019 and December 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.Relevant literatures were retrieved from domestic and foreign databases such as PubMed,CNKI,and VIP.The clinical characteristics of ICI-DM were summarized based on the literature results.Results All 10 patients were PD-1 inhibitor users,including 5 males and 5 females,with a median age of 54.5(51.3,64.0)years and a body mass index(BMI)of(22.0±2.15)kg/m2.Among them,9 cases(90.0%)were fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus(FT1DM);9 cases(90.0%)had a severity of adverse events reaching grade 3-4 according to the Common Terminology Criteria for adverse events(CTCAE).The median time from PD-1 inhibitor treatment to the occurrence of the classic diabetes symptoms referred to as"three more and one less"(polyuria,polydipsia,polyphagia,and weight loss)in all patients was 145.5(110.5,204.8)days,and the medication duration was 6.0(4.3,7.8)cycles.The average blood glucose level of the 10 patients at the time of consultation was 25.3(10.0-41.4)mmol/L,and the glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c)level was 8.0%(6.6%-10.9%).Eight patients had fasting and 2-hour C-peptide levels<0.1 ng/ml(fasting C-peptide from<0.010 to 0.067 ng/ml,2-hour C-peptide from<0.010 to 0.077 ng/ml).Nine of the 10 patients were negative for diabetes autoantibodies,while 1 was not tested.All 10 patients were successfully treated with insulin and other therapies.During the follow-up after discharge,all patients still relied on insulin treatment,and no significant recovery of pancreatic islet β cell function was observed compared with that at discharge.Literature review revealed that ICI-DM was more common in PD-1 inhibitor users,with clinical mainly manifested as diabetic ketoacidosis(DKA)(65.4%)and diabetic ketosis(13.1%).Patients had severely impaired pancreatic islet function and required long-term insulin treatment,and some cases were complicated by thyroid or pituitary dysfunction.Conclusions ICI-DM typically presents as FT1DM,often manifesting with DKA or diabetic ketosis at onset.It is characterized by severe and irreversible loss of pancreatic islet function,necessitating lifelong insulin therapy.To enable early detection and prompt treatment,close monitoring of blood glucose is essential during ICI treatment.

The traditional detection methods for monitoring the biomass,protein,chlorophyll content and other key indicators in the growth of chlorella have some problems,including complicated operation,slow detection speed and difficult large-scale application.In this study,a fast and efficient monitoring method for the key indicators in the growth of chlorella was established using near infrared spectroscopy and chemometrics.Near-infrared spectroscopy was used to collect near-infrared spectra of chlorella algal fluid at different growth stages,and standard methods were used to detect the biomass,protein and chlorophyll contents of corresponding samples.A quantitative analysis model was established based on partial least squares regression(PLSR).To improve the prediction ability of the model,multiplicative scatter correction(MSC)was used to reduce the interference of scattering on the raw spectrum(RS),standard normal variate(SNV)was used to normalize the original spectral data to eliminate differences between samples,continuous wavelet transform(CWT)was used to obtain the key features of spectral data,the first derivative(1st)was used to enhance the differentiation of the original spectral features,and monte carlo-uninformative variable elimination(MC-UVE)and randomization test(RT)were used to screen the valid variables in the wavelength.By evaluating the prediction ability of different models,the quantitative analysis models of chlorella biomass,protein and chlorophyll content were finally determined.The results showed that the model based on 1st combined with RT spectra had better predictive ability for chlorella nutrient content detection,and the root mean square errors of prediction(RMSEP)and coefficients of determination(R2)were 0.041 and 0.933 for biomass,0.012 and 0.973 for protein,and 0.517 and 0.962 for chlorophyll,respectively.This model showed practical application value,and could realize the rapid and accurate detection of chlorella biomass,protein and chlorophyll content at the same time.

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 examine the changing prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Burkholderia cepacia in 52 hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were collected from 52 hospitals between January 1,2015 and December 31,2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility of the strains was tested using Kirby-Bauer method or automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems according to a unified protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released in the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)guidelines(2023 edition).Results A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were isolated from all age groups,especially elderly patients.The proportion was 11.1％(1 032 strains)in children,significantly lower than the proportion in adults.About half(46.5％,4 310/9 261)of the strains were isolated from patients at least 60 years old and 42.3％(3 919/9 261)of the strains were isolated from young adults.Most isolates(71.1％)were isolated from sputum and respiratory secretions,followed by urine(10.7％)and blood samples(8.1％).B.cepacia isolates were highly susceptible to the five antimicrobial agents recommended in the CLSI M100 document(33rd edition,2023).B.cepacia isolates showed relatively higher resistance rates to meropenem and levofloxacin.However,the resistance rates to ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,and minocycline remained below 8.1％.The percentage of B.cepacia strains resistant to levofloxacin was the highest compared to other antibiotics in any of the three age groups(from 12.4％in the patients＜18 years old to 20.6％in the patients aged 60 years or older).Conclusions B.cepacia is one of the clinically important non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria.Accurate and timely reporting of antimicrobial susceptibility test results and ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance are helpful for rational prescription of antimicrobial agents and proper prevention and control of nosocomial infections.
