Objective To observe the effect of multi-modal hand hygiene(HH)intervention on HH compliance,as well as the relationship between HH compliance and the healthcare-associated(HA)case infection incidence.Methods From 2014 to 2022,the infection control team in a tertiary first-class hospital implemented multi-modal HH intervention for health care workers(HCWs).The changing trend of HH monitoring data,the correlation be-tween HH compliance rate and HA case infection incidence were analyzed retrospectively.Results The consump-tion of HH products in the wards showed a stable upward trend;HH compliance rate increased from 64.98％in 2014 to 85.01％in 2022(P＜0.001),and HA case infection incidence decreased from 1.21％to 0.83％(P＜0.05).HH compliance rate was negatively correlated with HA case infection incidence(r=-0.369,P=0.027).HH compliance rates in different regions and job posts in each quarter were increased(P＜0.001).For 5 different HH moments in each quarter,HH compliance rate fluctuated slightly before sterile manipulation and after touching patient;presented rising trend after touching surroundings around patient,and decreased before touching patient and after touching patient's body fluid since 2020(P＜0.001).Conclusion Multi-modal HH intervention can im-prove the HH compliance of HCWs,improving their HH awareness is conducive to reducing HA case infection incidence.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in patients in liver transplantation intensive care unit(ICU),and provide basis for the effective prevention and control of liver post-transplantation infection.Methods Targeted surveillance data of HAI in liver transplantation ICU from 2018 to 2022 were analyzed retrospectively.Incidence,incidence trend,infection site,pathogens and drug resistance were analyzed.Results A total of 3 762 liver transplantation patients were surveilled,106 patients developed 133 cases of HAI,with an incidence of 2.82％and a case incidence of 3.54％.There was no significant difference among the years(P=0.473).Infection mainly occurred within 2 weeks after admission to ICU,accounting for 85.85％.The main infection sites included blood system(26.32％),respiratory system(22.56％),and surgical site(19.55％).The average utilization rates of central veinous catheterization,urethral catheterization,and ventilator were 85.77％,70.58％,and 40.83％,respectively.The incidences of central line-associated bloodstream infection(CLABSI),catheter-associated urinary tract infection(CAUTI),and ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP)were 0.54‰,0.33‰,and 1.84‰,respectively.A total of 131 strains of pathogens were detected,of which Gram-negative bac-teria accounted for 38.17％and Gram-positive bacteria accounted for 29.77％.The top three pathogens were Kleb-siella pneumoniae(15.27％),Enterococcus faecium(11.45％),and Acinetobacter baumannii(9.16％).Conclusion Effective prevention and control measures should be taken based on the characteristics of HAI in the liver transplan-tation ICU,so as to curb bacterial resistance and reduce liver post-transplantation HAI.

This study aims to investigate the effect and mechanism of the herb pair Agrimoniae Herba-Coptidis Rhizoma in inhibiting angiogenesis in the colorectal cancer inflammatory microenvironment by using the method of network pharmacology and the zebrafish model. The method of network pharmacology was employed to obtain the active components, potential core targets, and signaling pathways regulated by the herb pair in inhibiting angiogenesis in the inflammatory microenvironment of colorectal cancer, on the basis of which the underlying mechanism was predicted. The zebrafish model of colorectal cancer was established, and the inflammatory microenvironment was modeled. The effects of different concentrations of the herb pair on the area, number, and length of intersegmental vessels(ISVs) of the zebrafish model were observed. Western blot and real-time quantitative PCR were employed to measure the protein and mRNA levels, respectively, of vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGFA), vascular epidermal growth factor receptor 2(VEGFR2, also known as kdrl, Flk1), and vascular epidermal growth factor receptor 3(VEGFR3, also known as Flt4). A total of 18 active components and 488 potential targets of Agrimoniae Herba-Coptidis Rhizoma were predicted, and 108 common targets were shared by the herb pair and the disease. According to the results of KEGG pathway enrichment analysis, the angiogenesis-related factors VEGFA, kdrl, and Flt4 in the VEGFA/VEGFR2 signaling pathway were selected for verification. The zebrafish experiment showed that compared with the blank group, the model group showed increased area, number, and length of ISVs in the inflammatory microenvironment. Compared with the model group, the herb pair decreased the area, number, and length of ISVs in a concentration-dependent manner. Compared with the blank group, the model group showed up-regulated protein and mRNA levels of VEGFA, kdrl, and Flt4 in the inflammatory microenvironment. Compared with the model group, the herb pair down-regulated the protein and mRNA levels of VEGFA, kdrl, and Flt4 in a concentration-dependent manner. The results indicated that in the colorectal cancer inflammatory microenvironment, the herb pair Agrimoniae Herba-Coptidis Rhizoma could inhibit angiogenesis via multiple components, targets, and pathways. The anti-angiogenesis effect might be related to the down-regulation of the expression levels of angiogenesis-related factors VEGFA, kdrl, and Flt4 in the VEGFA/VEGFR2 signaling pathway.
