ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of modified Xiehuangsan in treating tic disorders （TD） based on microglial polarization and the Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/myeloid differentiation factor 88 （MyD88）/nuclear factor （NF）-κB pathway. MethodsSeventy-two Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly assigned into six groups： control， model， tiapride （0.025 g·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （12， 24， 48 g·kg^-1， respectively） modified Xiehuangsan， with 12 rats in each group. Except the control group， the other groups received intraperitoneal injection of 3，3'-iminodipropionitrile （IDPN） for 7 consecutive days for the modeling of TD. After successful modeling， the control and model groups were given normal saline via gavage， and the other groups were administrated with corresponding drugs by gavage. After 28 days of continuous intervention， rat behaviors were observed， and the modified Xiehuangsan group showing the best anti-TD effect was selected for deciphering the treatment mechanism. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was conducted to observe morphological changes in the rat striatum. Immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of CD16 and CD206 in the striatum. Real-time PCR was employed to measure the mRNA levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， IL-4， TLR4， MyD88， and NF-κB p65 in the striatum. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 （Iba1）， Fc receptor family for immunoglobulin （Ig）G type Ⅲ （CD16）， mannose receptor （CD206）， TLR4， MyD88， and NF-κB p65 in the striatum. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group showed increased stereotyped behaviors， locomotor activity， total movement distance， and movement speed， shortened resting time （P<0.01）， and noticeable pathological changes in the striatum. Compared with the model group， the tiapride group and modified Xiehuangsan groups exhibited reduced stereotyped behavior， locomotor activity， total movement distance， and movement speed， prolonged resting time （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and alleviated pathological changes in the striatum. Among the modified Xiehuangsan groups， the high-dose group had the best intervention effect and the mildest pathological changes. Therefore， the high-dose group was selected for further research. Compared with the control group， the modeling of TD increased Iba1 and CD16 expression （P<0.05， P<0.01）， up-regulated the mRNA levels of IL-1β and TNF-α （P<0.05， P<0.01）， down-regulated the mRNA level of IL-4 （P<0.05）， up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of TLR4 and MyD88 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and up-regulated the protein level of NF-κB p65 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， modified Xiehuangsan reduced Iba1 and CD16 expression （P<0.05， P<0.01）， up-regulated the protein level of CD206 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， down-regulated the mRNA levels of IL-1β and TNF-α （P<0.05）， up-regulated the mRNA level of IL-4 （P<0.01）， and down-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of TLR4， MyD88， and NF-κB p65 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionModified Xiehuangsan demonstrated a definite therapeutic effect on TD in rats. It may reduce neuroinflammation in TD rats by regulating the polarization of microglia in the striatum via the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo assess the level of health literacy and its influencing factors among middle school students aged 12‒18 years in Jing’an District, Shanghai, so as to provide a solid scientific foundation for further developing more targeted intervention measures. MethodsA stratified cluster random sampling method was used to randomly select 4 middle schools in Jing’an District, Shanghai from November to December 2023, and conducted a health literacy questionnaire survey on non-graduating middle and high school students, respectively. The2023 Survey on the Status of Health Literacy among Middle School Students in Jing’an District, Shanghai was adopted, which consisted of two parts: health literacy and basic information. Health literacy was divided into three dimensions: health knowledge and concept literacy, healthy lifestyle and behavior literacy, and health skill literacy. Three dimensions could be categorized into six types of health literacy issue: scientific health literacy, infectious disease prevention and control literacy, chronic disease prevention and control literacy, safety and first aid literacy, basic health literacy, and health information literacy. ResultsA total of 1 161 middle school students were enrolled into this study, including 571 males and 570 females. The overall health literacy level of middle school students was 33.51%, with 34.81% among middle school students and 31.69% among high school students, respectively. Results of logistic regression analysis showed that health knowledge acquisition and awareness, as well as application frequency of health knowledge, were the influencing factors for the overall health literacy level among middle school students (P<0.05). The degree of family attention to health maintenance, health knowledge acquisition and awareness, and application frequency of health knowledge were the main influencing factors for the three dimensions and literacy of six types of health issues among middle school students (P<0.05). ConclusionThe levels of different types of health literacy among middle school students in Jing’an District are uneven, with the highest being safety and first aid literacy and the lowest being basic health literacy. It is recommended to take targeted measures to comprehensively improve the health literacy level of middle school students.

Objective:To investigate the effect of ultra-early enteral nutrition (UEEN) support on the prognosis of young and middle-aged postoperative patients with cerebral hemorrhage.Methods:The clinical data of young and middle-aged patients (aged 18-59 years) admitted to Tianjin Fifth Central Hospital from January 2020 to June 2023 after surgery for intracerebral hemorrhage were retrospectively analyzed, and the general data, nutritional indexes, gastrointestinal complications, neurological function recovery and long-term prognosis of the patients were recorded. According to the time of initiation of enteral nutrition (EN) support, patients were divided into UEEN group (EN implementation within 12 hour after surgery) and early enteral nutrition (EEN) group (EN implementation within 24 to 48 hour after surgery). The differences of the above indexes between the two groups were analyzed and compared.Results:A total of 64 young and middle-aged postoperative patients with cerebral hemorrhage were enrolled, including 32 cases in the UEEN group and 32 cases in the EEN group. There were no significant differences in gender, age, proportion of hypertension and diabetes, Glasgow coma score (GCS) on admission and surgical methods between the two groups. In terms of nutritional indexes, serum total protein, albumin and hemoglobin levels of patients in both groups on day 7 after admission were lower than those on day 1, and higher than those on day 3, and the above indexes levels in UEEN group were significantly higher than those in EEN group on day 7 [total protein (g/L): 63.05±5.79 vs. 59.02±6.63, albumin (g/L): 40.40±5.26 vs. 37.66±4.63, hemoglobin (g/L): 133.33±12.58 vs. 123.80±22.12, all P < 0.05]. In terms of gastrointestinal complications, the incidence of stress ulcer in the UEEN group within 14 days after admission was significantly lower than that in the EEN group [12.5% (4/32) vs. 31.3% (10/32), P < 0.05], but there was no statistically significant difference in feeding intolerance symptoms between the two groups. In terms of neurological recovery and long-term prognosis, GCS scores and Barthel index scores of 14 days after admission were higher than those of 1 day after admission, but there was no statistical significance between the two groups. Six months after surgery, Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) and Barthel index score of the UEEN group were significantly higher than those of the EEN group (GOS score: 3.81±1.06 vs. 3.18±1.07, Barthel index score: 60.78±7.24 vs. 54.52±5.13, both P < 0.05). Conclusion:UEEN support can improve the nutritional level of young and middle-aged postoperative patients with cerebral hemorrhage, reduce the occurrence of postoperative gastrointestinal complications, promote the recovery of neurological function, and improve the long-term prognosis.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.

Objective The aim of this study was to explore the correlation between the methylation status of microRNA let-7a-3 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC)and the expression of insulin-like growth factor 2(IGF-Ⅱ).Methods The methylation specific PCR(qMSP)was used to detect the methylation status of let-7a-3 in 83 cases of esophageal cancer and corre-sponding adjacent normal tissues.The enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect the expression of IGF-Ⅱ in plasma.Results The degree of let-7a-3 methylation in cancer tissues of 83 patients with ESCC was significantly higher than that in normal tissues adjacent to cancer(P<0.001).The expression of IGF-Ⅱ in the plasma of 83 patients with ESCC was positively corre-lated with the methylation degree of let-7a-3,which was statistically significant(r=0.600,P<0.001).Conclusion microRNAlet-7a-3 may participate in the occurrence and progression of ESCC by regulating the methylation of downstream molecules,which is of great significance for understanding the mechanisms of ESCC development and providing a basis for the diagnosis and prognosis of ESCC.

Objective:To study the current status of longitudinal extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) in extremely preterm infants (EPIs) and to develop a prediction model based on clinical data from multiple NICUs.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2018, EPIs admitted to 32 NICUs in North China were retrospectively studied. Their general conditions, nutritional support, complications during hospitalization and weight changes were reviewed. Weight loss between birth and discharge > 1SD was defined as longitudinal EUGR. The EPIs were assigned into longitudinal EUGR group and non-EUGR group and their nutritional support and weight changes were compared. The EPIs were randomly assigned into the training dataset and the validation dataset with a ratio of 7∶3. Univariate Cox regression analysis and multiple regression analysis were used in the training dataset to select the independent predictive factors. The best-fitting Nomogram model predicting longitudinal EUGR was established based on Akaike Information Criterion. The model was evaluated for discrimination efficacy, calibration and clinical decision curve analysis.Results:A total of 436 EPIs were included in this study, with a mean gestational age of (26.9±0.9) weeks and a birth weight of (989±171) g. The incidence of longitudinal EUGR was 82.3%(359/436). Seven variables (birth weight Z-score, weight loss, weight growth velocity, the proportion of breast milk ≥75% within 3 d before discharge, invasive mechanical ventilation ≥7 d, maternal antenatal corticosteroids use and bronchopulmonary dysplasia) were selected to establish the prediction model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the training dataset and the validation dataset were 0.870 (95% CI 0.820-0.920) and 0.879 (95% CI 0.815-0.942), suggesting good discrimination efficacy. The calibration curve indicated a good fit of the model ( P>0.05). The decision curve analysis showed positive net benefits at all thresholds. Conclusions:Currently, EPIs have a high incidence of longitudinal EUGR. The prediction model is helpful for early identification and intervention for EPIs with higher risks of longitudinal EUGR. It is necessary to expand the sample size and conduct prospective studies to optimize and validate the prediction model in the future.

WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals，of which 7 895（87.4%）were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140（12.6%）were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（ n=4 510，49.9%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（ n=2 340，25.9%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（ n=534，5.9%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（ n=405，4.5%）and Enterobacter cloacae（ n=327，3.6%）. The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%（2 095/4 452），21.0%（427/2 033）and 41.1%（58/141），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（58/4 510）and 13.1%（307/2 340）；62.1%（36/58）and 9.8%（30/307）of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 59.5%（241/405），while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 18.4%（98/534）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA（ χ2=20.489 and 20.252， P<0.001）. The prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA，CRAB，ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=11.953，81.183，10.404，5.915，12.415 and 6.459， P<0.01 or <0.05），while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions（per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan）than that in economically less-developed regions（per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=6.240， P=0.012）. Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different，and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). WHONET 5.6 was used to analyze data.Results:During the study period, 11 013 bacterial strains were collected from 51 hospitals, of which 2 782 (25.3%) were Gram-positive bacteria and 8 231 (74.7%) were Gram-negative bacteria. The top 10 bacterial species were Escherichia coli (37.6%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (18.9%), Staphylococcus aureus (9.8%), coagulase-negative Staphylococci (6.3%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3.6%), Enterococcus faecium (3.6%), Acinetobacter baumannii (2.8%), Enterococcus faecalis (2.7%), Enterobacter cloacae (2.5%) and Klebsiella spp (2.1%). The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus aureus were 25.3% and 76.8%, respectively. No glycopeptide- and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci was detected; more than 95.0% of Staphylococcus aureus were sensitive to ceftobiprole. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci strains were detected. The rates of extended spectrum B-lactamase (ESBL)-producing isolated in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis were 49.6%, 25.5% and 39.0%, respectively. The prevalence rates of carbapenem-resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 2.2% and 15.8%, respectively; 7.9% of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae was resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination. Ceftobiprole demonstrated excellent activity against non-ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Aztreonam/avibactam was highly active against carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The prevalence rate of carbapenem-resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii was 60.0%, while polymyxin and tigecycline showed good activity against Acinetobacter baumannii (5.5% and 4.5%). The prevalence of carbapenem-resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 18.9%. Conclusions:The BRICS surveillance results in 2021 shows that the main pathogens of blood stream infection in China are gram-negative bacteria, in which Escherichia coli is the most common. The MRSA incidence shows a further decreasing trend in China and the overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is low. The prevalence of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is still on a high level, but the trend is downwards.

Objective:To learn about the status of iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) and iodine nutrition of residents in Shanxi Province since the implementation of the standard of "Iodine Content in Edible Salt" (GB 26878-2011), to evaluate the level of prevention and control of IDD, and to provide scientific basis for adjusting prevention and control strategies.Methods:The data of core indicators monitored by Shanxi Province in accordance with the requirements of the national iodized salt and IDD monitoring program for each year from 2012 to 2021 were comprehensively reviewed, and the change trends of the indicators such as coverage rate of iodized salt, consumption rate of qualified iodized salt, children's median urinary iodine and goiter rate, and pregnant women's median urinary iodine were analyzed; the evaluation of IDD elimination in counties (cities and districts, hereinafter referred to as counties) was analyzed.Results:From 2012 to 2021, the coverage rate of iodized salt in Shanxi Province was remained > 95%; from 2012 to 2014 (transition period between new and old standard iodized salt), the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt had an upward trend (χ 2trend = 2 703.32, P < 0.001), with a downward trend from 2015 to 2017 (before and after the reform of the salt industry system, χ 2trend = 122.18, P < 0.001), and with an upward trend from 2018 to 2021 (after the reform of the salt industry system, χ 2trend = 455.11, P < 0.001), from 2018, the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt remained > 90%; from 2015 to 2021, the average content of salt iodine was between 23 - 25 mg/kg, and the coefficient of variation of salt iodine was 15% - 18%. From 2014 to 2021, the median urinary iodine of children in Shanxi Province remained at 200 - 250 μg/L, the median urinary iodine of pregnant women remained at 150 - 200 μg/L, and the goiter rate of children remained below 5%. Every year, iodine nutrition of pregnant women in some counties was insufficient. In 2016, the proportion of counties with insufficient iodine nutrition of pregnant women was high, reached 30.0% (12/40); from 2018 to 2021, the proportion of counties with insufficient iodine nutrition of pregnant women had a downward trend (χ 2trend = 9.37, P = 0.002), which was 11.1% (13/117) in 2021. In 2020, 117 counties in the province reached the IDD elimination standard, with a compliance rate of 100.0%. Conclusions:Since the implementation of the current salt iodine content standard for 10 years, the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt has gradually stabilized and remained at a high level, which can ensure that IDD is in a sustainable state of elimination in Shanxi Province, and the iodine nutrition of school-age children and pregnant women is generally at a suitable level. However, there are a certain number of counties with insufficient iodine nutrition of pregnant women. It is recommended to guide pregnant women to supplement iodine or set the average standard of salt iodine for pregnant women separately.
