Objective: To analyze the serotypes and drug resistance of Salmonella isolated from food-borne disease surveillance samples in Longwan District, Wenzhou City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide evidence for the prevention and treatment of Salmonella infection. Methods: Salmonella strains isolated from feces or anal swabs of patients with foodborne diarrhea in Longwan District People's Hospital from 2018 to 2024 were collected. After re-identification, slide agglutination test was used to identify serotypes. The drug susceptibility test of live Salmonella strains was performed using the broth microdilution method, and the resistance patterns were analyzed. Results: A total of 2 293 samples were collected, and 186 strains of Salmonella were isolated, with a detection rate of 8.11%. The detection rate was higher from May to October. A total of 28 Salmonella serotypes were identified, with S. typhimurium (72 isolates, 38.71%), S. enteritidis (31 isolates, 16.67%), and S. London (30 isolates, 16.13%) being dominant. Among the 121 Salmonella live strains, 20 strains were susceptible to 14 antibacterial drugs. A total of 101 strains were resistant to antibacterial drugs, and the drug resistance rate was 1.65%-67.77%, with the drug resistance rate of ampicillin being the highest, and the drug resistance rate of imipenem was the lowest. S. typhimurium had the highest resistance rate to tetracycline (78.26%). S. enteritidis had the highest resistance rate to ampicillin (100.00%). S. London had the highest resistance rate to tetracycline (66.67%). Fifty-five types of drug resistance patterns were detected, showing a number of drug resistance of 1-10, of which 76 strains were multi-drug resistant, accounting for 75.25%. The predominant multidrug resistance patterns were ampicillin/sulbactam-cefazolin-ampicillin-nalidixic acid (10.53%), tetracycline-ampicillin-nalidixic acid (9.21%), and ampicillin/sulbactam-ampicillin-nalidixic acid (7.89%). Conclusions Salmonella strains isolated from foodborne diseases in Longwan District were mainly detected in summer and autumn. S. typhimurium, S. enteritidis, and S. London were the predominant serotypes. The drug resistance of Salmonella to different antibacterial drugs was different, and the drug resistance spectrum showed diversity.

With the advancement of education,teaching methods have been continuously improved and optimized to en-hance students'learning experiences.In teaching the course of pathophysiology,a core discipline for medical students,integra-tion of Case-Based Learning(CBL)with the flipped classroom model can serve as a powerful pedagogical tool by stimulating students'interest,promoting collaborative learning,enhancing teacher-student interaction,and fostering a more active and en-gaging classroom environment.It also equips students with the confidence to better address real-world medical scenarios.This pa-per examines the application effect of the integrated teaching method on the teaching of pathophysiology and evaluates its pedagog-ical effectiveness.

Chronic diseases in the elderly are characterised by high incidence rates and prolonged duration.Regular participation in multi-component exercise programs promotes both the physical and mental health of the elderly with chronic diseases and reduces the risk of morbidity,making it the key to prevent chronic diseases in the elderly.This review introduces the concepts of multi-component exercise,elucidates the mechanism in improvement of physical and cognitive functions and evaluates the applications as well as the advantages and disadvantages in the management of chronic diseases in the elderly.This review intends to provide references for clinicians who undertake management role of the chronic diseases in elderly populations.
