This study evaluated the potential of OPC-167832 as a new method for the treatment of Mycobacterium fortuitum infec-tion.Drug sensitivity tests were conducted with the broth microdilution method to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC)of OPC-167832 against standard strains of M.fortuitum and 44 clinical isolates of M.fortuitum.A DprE1 overexpression strain was constructed,and the effect in the MIC of OPC-167832 against M.fortuitum were explored.Intracellular germicidal tests and checkerboard tests were conducted to verify the ability of OPC-167832 to kill intracellular M.fortuitum,and its interaction with five drugs:amikacin,clarithromycin,imipenem,moxifloxacin,and clofazimine.The MIC50 and MIC90 against 44 clinical isolates of M.fortuitum were 0.031 25 μg/mL and 0.062 5μg/mL,respectively.The epidemiological cut-off value(ECOFF)was 0.062 5 μg/mL.Overexpression of DprE1 led to resistance to OPC-167832 in M.fortuitum.After 24 hours of incubation,the intracellular bacterial in-hibition rate of OPC-167832 at a 1 μg/mL concentration was 81.37%,exceeding the 74.05%inhibition rate of amikacin at a 1 μg/mL concentration.OPC-167832 showed strong inhibitory activity against M.fortuitum in vitro and in macrophages,and might provide a promising treatment for M.fortuitum infection.

Objective To investigate the relationship between ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)treatment time nodes and coronary microcirculation dysfunction(CMD)after primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)and its prognosis,providing evidence for early identification of high-risk patients,further optimization of treatment system,shortening treatment time and improving prognosis.Methods This study selected 150 STEMI patients who received primary PCI at the 920th Hospital of the Joint Logistic Support Force of the People's Liberation Army of China from March 2023 to September 2023 as the CMD group after PCI(89 cases),with a microcirculation resistance index(caIMR)of≥40 U based on coronary angiography.caIMR<40 U was classified as the non-CMD group(61 cases).The clinical data,various examination indicators and imaging data of the two groups of patients were collected,and the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)within half a year after direct PCI of the patients was followed up.The correlation between the two variables was analyzed using Spearman.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between each treatment time point and the occurrence of CMD after direct PCI.Using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis to predict the occurrence of CMD after direct PCI.The survival curves between the two groups were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method.Results The levels of symptom onset-to-balloon(S-to-B),symptom onset-to-first medical contact(S-to-FMC),first medical contact-to-balloon(FMC-to-B),symptom onset-to-door(S-to-D)and first medical contact-to-door(FMC-to-D)in the CMD group were significantly higher than those in the non-CMD group(all P<0.05).Correlation analysis showed that S-to-D,S-to-FMC,the time from FMC-to-B,and the time from FMC-to-D were all positively correlated with the time from S-to-B(r=0.996,P<0.001;r=0.937,P<0.001;r=0.431,P<0.001;r=0.441,P<0.001).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that the duration of S-to-D(OR 2.165,95%CI 1.655-2.830,P<0.001)was a significant influencing factor for CMD.Moreover,S-to-D has a relatively high predictive value for the occurrence of CMD after direct PCI.The area under the ROC curve is 0.898(95%CI 0.850-0.946,P<0.001),the optimal cut-off value is 231 min,the sensitivity is 82.0%,and the specificity is 88.5%.Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that the cumulative survival rate of MACE outcomes in the CMD group was significantly lower than that in the non-CMD group(Log-rank P=0.009).Conclusions Shortening the S-to-D time can reduce the occurrence of CMD after PCI,thereby reducing the incidence of MACE and improving prognosis.
