Objective To understand the changing profiles of antimicrobial susceptibility of the bacterial strains isolated from patients at Liuzhou Workers'Hospital in Guangxi from 2020 to 2022.Methods The bacteria were isolated,identified,and underwent antimicrobial susceptibility testing using VITEK 2 Compact,disk diffusion method,or E-test.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints recommended by CLSI M100 32nd Edition in 2022.The data were analyzed using WHONET 5.6 software.Results A total of 26 254 nonduplicate strains were collected from 2020 to 2022,including Gram-positive bacteria(27.9％)and gram-negative bacteria(72.1％).The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains was 20.0％in SS.aureus(MRSA),and 72.2％in coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(MRCNS).Methicillin-resistant staphylococcal strains were more resistant to most antimicrobial agents than methicillin-susceptible strains(MSSA and MSCNS).None of the staphylococcal strains was resistant to vancomycin,linezolid or tigecycline.Enterococcus faecium strains showed higher resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents than Enterococcus faecalis.None of enterococcal strains was resistant to vancomycin.A few enterococcal strains were resistant to linezolid.Overall,691 strains of the non-meningitis Streptococcus pneumoniae were isolated from children and 123 strains were isolated from adults.The prevalence of penicillin-resistant SS.pneumoniae(PRSP)was 0.4％in the strains from children and 1.6％in the strains from adults.None of S.pneumoniae strains was intermediate to penicillin.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKpn)was 1.2％,1.2％,and 13.8％in 2020,2021,and 2022,respectively.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant P.aeruginosa(CRPae)and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAba)was 10.7％and 68.4％in 2020,17.5％and 75.2％in 2021,14.3％and 77.3％in 2022,respectively.About 84.6％of the 1 269 strains of Haemophilus influenzae were isolated from children and 15.4％isolated from adults.The prevalence of beta-lactamase-producing strains was 39.4％in the isolates from children and 46.8％in the isolates from adults.The β-lactamase-producing H.influenzae was resistant to ampicillin.Furthermore,some β-lactamase-nonproducing ampicillin-resistant(BLNAR)H.influenzae strains(27.0％)were also identified.Conclusions Antimicrobial resistance is still serious in this hospital,especially high prevalence of carbapenem-resistant organisms(CRO).Hospital infection prevention and control measures,antibiotic stewardship,and proactive CRO screening should be strengthened.More clinical specimens should be collected for suspected infections.Antimicrobial treatment should be prescribed empirically in time and adjusted when the results of antimicrobial susceptibility testing are available.

Objective:To construct the evaluation index system of the core competence of neonatal specialist nurses, so as to provide reference for clinical training of neonatal specialist nurses.Methods:From January 2020, through literature review, theoretical analysis, interview, Delphi method and superiority chart, the evaluation index and weight of core competence of neonatal specialist nurses were determined.Results:Totally 28 experts in China were invited for 3 rounds of consultation. The effective recovery rate of the questionnaires was 93.33%(28/30) in the first round. The effective recovery rate of the questionnaires was 100.00%(28/28) in the second and third rounds. The authority coefficient of the experts was 0.85 in the third round. The Kendall′s coefficients of concordance of the first-level indexes, second-level indexes and third-level indexes were 0.150, 0.221 and 0.161, respectively. The final evaluation index system of the core competence of neonatal specialist nurses included 5 first-level indicators, 17 second-level indicators and 58 third-level indicators.Conclusions:The evaluation index system of the core competence of neonatal specialist nurses constructed in this study has certain scientific, reliable and clinical application value, which is conducive to the training of newborn specialized nurses in China.

In industrial fermentation processes, bacteria have to adapt environmental stresses. Sometimes, such a self-adaption does not work and will cause fermentation failures, although such adaptation also can generate unexpected positive effects with improved fermentation performance. Our review introduces cell self-adaption to environmental variations or stress, process optimization based on such self-adaptions, with heterologous proteins production by Pichia pastoris and butanol fermentation as examples. Our review can sever as reference for fermentation optimization based on cell self-adaption.

Objective To investigate the effects of writing to express positive emotion on well-being in single intrauterine fetal demise (sIUFD)women.Methods According to inclusion criteria,100 sIUFD women were recruited from January 2012 to January 2015.These candidates were randomly divided into control group and observation group with 50 members respectively.The patients of observation group were given conventional nursing instructions and provided with a written expression which written 30 -45 minutes a day and last 4 weeks.The patients of control group were given the conventional nursing instructions only.General Well-Being Schedule (GWB)was measured before and after the interventions.Results Before the interventions,the GWB score were no significant difference between two groups (P >0.05 ).After the intervention,the observation group GWB scores were (77.7 ±9.58),while the control group GWB scores were (70.3 ±8.45) (P <0.05).Conclusions The writing to express positive emotions can promote well-being in sIUFD women.

Objective To evaluate the effects of unilastatin on brain injury in children undergoing aortic arch surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods Twenty ASA physical status Ⅲ or Ⅳ children of both sexes,aged 1-24 months,weighing 3-12 kg,undergoing repair of coarctation of aorta or interrupted aortic arch complicated with intracardiac malformations under CPB,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =10 each):control group (group C) and ulinastatin group (group U).Ulinastatin 20 000 U/kg was diluted into 10 000 U/ml with normal saline and it was then injected intravenously in 3 parts (1/3 was injected via the internal jugular vein after induction of anesthesia; 1/3 at the beginning of CPB and 1/3 at 5 min before aortic unclamping).In group C the equal volume of normal saline was given instead of ulinastatin.Blood samples were taken from the radial artery after induction of anesthesia (T1),at 10 min after aortic clamping (T2),at 10 min after aortic unclamping (T3),at the end of CPB (T4),and at 6 and 24 h after termination of CPB (T5,T6) for determination of plasma S100B protein and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) concentrations.Results There was no significant difference in plasma levels of S100B protein and NSE at T1 between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Plasma S100B protein and NSE levels were significantly increased at T2-5 as compared to the baseline values at T1 in both groups (P ＜ 0.05).Plasma S100B protein and NSE levels were significantly lower at T2-5 in group U than in group C (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Ulinastatin can attenuate brain injury in children undergoing aortic arch surgery under CPB.
