OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of multidrug-resistant bacteria in the neonatal intensive care unit of a three-A children's hospital in Henan Province,and to provide reference for ational drug use in clinical practice.METHODS Clinical specimens from hospitalized newborns in neonatal intensive care unit from a three-A children's hospital from Jan.1,2019 to Dec.31,2023 were subjected to etiological exam-ination and drug sensitivity test,and to analyze the distribution and drug resistance of multidrug-resistant bacteri-a in hospitalized newborns.RESULTS During the 5-year period,1139 strains of multidrug-resistant bacteria were i-solated,including 229 gram-positive bacteria(20.11％)and 910 gram-negative bacteria(79.89％).There were 92 strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)(accounting for 8.08％),57 strains(accounting for 5.00％)of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus epidermidis and 28 strains(accounting for 2.46％)of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative human Staphylococcus.370 strains(accounting for 32.48)of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP),268 strains(accounting for 23.53％)of extenspectrum β-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli and 85 strains(accounting for 7.46％)of K.pneumoniae,there were 767 sputum specimens(67.34％),160 blood specimens from peripheral intravenous puncture and central venous cath-eterization(PICC)(14.05％),63 bronchoalveolar lavage fluid specimens(5.53％),29 secretion specimens(eye and wound secretions)(2.54％),and 120 other specimens(10.54％).K.pneumoniae and E.coli producing su-per-broad spectrum β-lactamase,CRKP and MRSA were the main drug-resistant bacteria.CONCLUSION The sit-uation of drug resistance in neonatal intensive care unit is serious,therefore monitoring bacterial resistance should be strengthened according to the clinical laboratory results,and antibiotics should be applied rationally.

OBJECTIVE To standardize the strategies for prevention and control of Chikungunya(CHIK)in healthcare in-stitutions so as to reduce the risk of transmission in the institutions.METHODS A working group comprising the ex-perts in hospital infection control,infectious diseases,and microbiology systematically reviewed domestic and international evidence and current guidelines,integrated China's vector ecology and healthcare realities,conducted two rounds of Delphi to achieve expert consensus,and graded the evidence and recommendation strength using the Oxford Centre for Evidence Based Medicine system.RESULTS The consensus issues 18 actionable recommendations on triage,patient mosquito-proof isolation,integrated vector control,protection of susceptible populations,environmental cleaning and disinfection,specimen management,medical textile handling,and outbreak emergency response,with each statement assigned an evi-dence level and recommendation strength.CONCLUSION This consensus is for the first time in China to provide evidence-graded strategies for control of CHIK in healthcare institutions,offering work flow-oriented,implementable guidance for clinicians,laboratorians,and infection-control personnel under different risk scenarios and enhancing the comprehensive coping capacity of the healthcare institutions.

Objective To address the challenges of constructing large language models for traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)classics,which are complex and expensive to fine-tune,this study explores a lightweight fine-tuning method for such models,aiming to develop a question-answering model centered on TCM classics,particularly various editions of Shang Han Lun through the ages.Methods Dataset construction involved designing prompts to guide GPT-4 in generating Q&A pairs based on Shang Han Lun and integrating them with the ShenNong_TCM_Dataset and cMedQA2 datasets.Five general-purpose large models were selected for Lora fine-tuning.The best model was chosen through evaluation,and the performance of multiple quantized versions was validated.Results After fine-tuning,the BLEU,ROUGE-1,ROUGE-2,and ROUGE-L metrics for the Qwen-7B-Chat model improved by 17.61,19.63,14.3,and 21.4,respectively,compared to the base model.Conclusion The selected model in this study is capable of effectively understanding and utilizing professional terms and concepts from TCM classics,such as Shang Han Lun,to provide accurate answers to user queries.Compared to similar models,it requires lower fine-tuning costs and computational power,contributing to the dissemination of TCM knowledge and the development of intelligent systems.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of a modified puncture method in hemodialysis patients with difficult internal fistula.Methods:From January 2022 to October 2023, patients with difficult internal fistula undergoing dialysis at the Blood Purification Center of Qingdao Municipal Hospital were selected for the study using the convenience sampling method. According to the hemodialysis time, patients dialyzed on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays were included in the conventional group, and patients dialyzed on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays were included in the experimental group, with 56 cases in each group. Internal fistula puncture was performed in the conventional group using the traditional puncture method and in the experimental group using the modified puncture method. The success rate of one-time puncture of internal fistula and the injury rate of internal fistula were compared between the two groups of patients.Results:The success rate of one-time puncture of internal fistula in the experimental group was higher than that in the conventional group, with a statistical difference ( P<0.05). The injury rate of the internal fistula vessel of the experimental group was lower than that of the conventional group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Modified puncture methods have a positive effect on increasing the success rate of a one-time puncture of the internal fistula and decreasing the rate of internal fistula injuries in patients with difficult internal fistula.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and therapeutic effects of a self-designed portable enteral nutrition (EN) kit for home EN in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) .Methods:A total of 60 patients suffered from moderately severe AP and severe AP and needed home EN in Department of Gastroenterology of First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University between April 2022 and June 2023 were enrolled. They were randomly assigned to portable EN group (observation group, n=28) and routine EN group (control group, n=29) according to random number table. All patients were given EN guidance before discharge. After discharge, all patients were given weekly telephone follow-up to guide the resolution of home EN problems. Patients were followed up from discharge to extubation. The age, gender, body mass index (BMI), disease severity, laboratory indicators (white blood cell, hemoglobin, albumin, total protein), AP related complications before discharge were recorded. During the follow-up period, changes in BMI, laboratory indicators, gastrointestinal symptoms, infection related complications, nutrition tube related complications and Barthel index were recorded. Results:all indicators in the two groups were not significantly statistically different, which comparable at baseline. During the 1-week, 2-week, 3-week and 4-week follow-up period, there was no significant difference on the incidence of infection and complications related to nutrition tube between the two groups, while the incidence of gastrointestinal symptoms in observation group was significantly lower than that in control group and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). At the 3-week and 4-week follow-up, the BMI [ (22.38±3.84) vs (20.38±3.56) kg/m 2; (22.59±3.77) vs (20.54±3.37) kg/m 2], hemoglobin [ (125.00±13.46) vs (113.4±13.64) g/L; (126.20±14.37) vs (114.3±13.25) g/L], and albumin [ (40.96±3.07) vs (39.17±3.31) g/L; (41.79±2.73) vs (39.97±2.67) g/L] levels of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group; the living ability score of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (87.32±5.85 vs 82.59±9.79; 89.64±1.31 vs 83.97±8.80) ; and all the differences were statistically significant (all P value <0.05) . Conclusions:The application of portable EN kit can help reduce the gastrointestinal symptoms of AP patients who need long-term home EN, improve nutritional status and life ability.

Objective:To investigate the value of BRAF V600E and multigene detection and stratified application for the diagnosis of thyroid nodules.Methods:A total of 1 117 patients with thyroid nodules resection at Nanjing Gulou Hospital from December 2020 to July 2022 were enrolled in the study. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) and core biopsy samplings were performed for cytopathologic examination and genetic testings; the findings were combined with BSRTC classification. The diagnostic performance of BRAF V600E and multigene detection were compared.Results:Among the 1, 117 patients who underwent thyroid nodules resection, 285 were male and 832 were female, with a median age of 46 years (range: 24-76 years). Postoperative histopathologic examination confirmed 1 040 cases of thyroid cancer and 77 cases of benign nodules. The sensitivity (87.0% vs. 80.8%, P<0.01) and diagnostic accuracy (87.9% vs. 82.1%, P<0.01) of multigene detection were significantly higher than those of BRAF V600E detection. The result of multigene detection showed that BRAF V600E mutation was the most common finding, followed by CCDC6-RET (E1-E12) fusion, ETV6-NTRK3 fusion, and KRAS mutation. Multigene detection had a higher sensitivity (81.9% vs. 72.8%, P<0.01) and lower cancer risk in wild-type (47.6% vs. 57.7%, P=0.069) than BRAF V600E detection in BSRTCⅠ-Ⅴ lesions. Compared with BRAF V600E detection, multigene had no significant difference of sensitivity in BSRTC Ⅰ lesions, but significantly higher sensitivity (86.3% vs 74.0%, P<0.01) in BSRTC Ⅲ lesions. Conclusions:Genetic detection can be used as an effective tool for the diagnosis of thyroid nodules. A stratified application of molecular markers in the diagnosis of thyroid nodules is proposed. Combined with FNA, single gene or multigene detection both can effectively assist in the diagnosis of thyroid nodules. Moreover, multigene detection is superior to single gene detection. For BSRTC Ⅲ lesion with wild-type BRAF, multigene detection can be considered with a repeated FNA.
