ObjectiveTo investigate the present situation of input, output, outcome and impact of all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia in China, and analyze how the input predict the output, outcome and impact. MethodsFrom March 1st to April 30th, 2025, a questionnaire survey was conducted on all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia, covering four dimensions: input, output, outcome and impact. A total of 1 365 questionnaires were distributed. The input included four items: laws and policies, human resources, equipment and facilities, and rehabilitation information management. The output included two items: technical paths and benefits/effectiveness. The outcome included three items: coverage rates, rehabilitation interventions and functional results. The impact included two items: health and sustainability. Each item contained several questions, all of which were described in a positive way. Each question was scored from one to five. A lower score indicated that the situation of the community-based rehabilitation station was more in line with the content described in the question. Regression analysis was performed using the total score of each item of input dimension as independent variables, and the total scores of the output, outcome and impact dimensions as dependent variables. ResultsA total of 1 262 valid questionnaires were collected. The mean values of input, output, outcome and impact of community-based rehabilitation stations were 1.827 to 1.904, with coefficient of variation of 45.892% to 49.239%. The regression analysis showed that, rehabilitation information management, human resources, and laws and policies significantly predicted the output dimension (R² = 0.910, P < 0.001). Meanwhile, all four items in the input dimension predicted both the outcome (R² = 0.850, P < 0.001) and impact dimensions (R² = 0.833, P < 0.001). ConclusionInput, output, outcome and impact of the community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia were generally in line with the content of the questions, although some imbalances were observed. Additionally, the input of community-based rehabilitation stations could significantly predict their output, outcome and impact.

Conventional X-ray coronary angiography using iodinated contrast media is the gold standard technique for diagnosing coronary artery disease and determining treatment strategies,including percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).However,severe allergy to iodinated contrast agents and renal insufficiency,as well as severely hyperthyroid patients,limit the use of iodinated contrast agents,especially in the face of acute coronary syndromes requiring emergency PCI.Gadolinium-based contrast agent is mainly developed for use in magnetic resonance imaging examinations,and there are few studies on whether it can be used for coronary angiography.We report a case of a patient who had a severe allergic reaction to an iodine contrast agent,and ultimately had a successful complex coronary intervention guided by the application of Gadolinium-based contrast agent combined with intravascular ultrasound.This case and a review of the relevant literature provide new ideas for coronary artery examination and treatment in patients with contraindications to iodine.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance of clinical isolates from elderly patients(≥65 years)in major medical institutions across China.Methods Bacterial strains were isolated from elderly patients in 52 hospitals participating in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program during the period from 2015 to 2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility test was carried out by disk diffusion method and automated systems according to the same CHINET protocol.The data were interpreted in accordance with the breakpoints recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)in 2021.Results A total of 514 715 nonduplicate clinical isolates were collected from elderly patients in 52 hospitals from January 1,2015 to December 31,2021.The number of isolates accounted for 34.3％of the total number of clinical isolates from all patients.Overall,21.8％of the 514 715 strains were gram-positive bacteria,and 78.2％were gram-negative bacteria.Majority(90.9％)of the strains were isolated from inpatients.About 42.9％of the strains were isolated from respiratory specimens,and 22.9％were isolated from urine.More than half(60.7％)of the strains were isolated from male patients,and 39.3％isolated from females.About 51.1％of the strains were isolated from patients aged 65-＜75 years.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains(MRSA)was 38.8％in 32 190 strains of Staphylococcus aureus.No vancomycin-or linezolid-resistant strains were found.The resistance rate of E.faecalis to most antibiotics was significantly lower than that of Enterococcus faecium,but a few vancomycin-resistant strains(0.2％,1.5％)and linezolid-resistant strains(3.4％,0.3％)were found in E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible S.pneumoniae(PSSP),penicillin-intermediate S.pneumoniae(PISP),and penicillin-resistant S.pneumoniae(PRSP)was 94.3％,4.0％,and 1.7％in nonmeningitis S.pneumoniae isolates.The resistance rates of Klebsiella spp.(Klebsiella pneumoniae 93.2％)to imipenem and meropenem were 20.9％and 22.3％,respectively.Other Enterobacterales species were highly sensitive to carbapenem antibiotics.Only 1.7％-7.8％of other Enterobacterales strains were resistant to carbapenems.The resistance rates of Acinetobacter spp.(Acinetobacter baumannii 90.6％)to imipenem and meropenem were 68.4％and 70.6％respectively,while 28.5％and 24.3％of P.aeruginosa strains were resistant to imipenem and meropenem,respectively.Conclusions The number of clinical isolates from elderly patients is increasing year by year,especially in the 65-＜75 age group.Respiratory tract isolates were more prevalent in male elderly patients,and urinary tract isolates were more prevalent in female elderly patients.Klebsiella isolates were increasingly resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents,especially carbapenems.Antimicrobial resistance surveillance is helpful for accurate empirical antimicrobial therapy in elderly patients.

Objective To evaluate the effects of fasting and high-fat diet on the pharmacokinetics of rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated tablets in healthy Chinese subjects.Methods A single-center,randomized,open,two-agent,two-sequence,four-cycle,fully repeated crossover,single-dose trial design was used in this study,healthy subjects were assigned to receive single dose of rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated tablets 0.1 g in either fasting or high-fat diet state,and blood samples were taken at different time points,respectively.The concentrations of rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated in plasma were determined by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS),the model method of the non-compartmental was used to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters by Phoenix WinNonlin 8.2.Results The main pharmacokinetic parameters of rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated tablets in fasting state and high-fat diet state were as follows:Cmax were(339.63±156.47)and(318.86±132.13)ng·mL-1;t1/2 were(2.34±0.68)and(3.60±2.40)h;AUC0_t were(556.62±251.65)and(528.50±201.78)ng·mL-1·h;AUC0-∞ were(563.39±255.69)and(535.15±203.24)ng·mL-1·h;tmax were 3.65 and 6.99 h.After high-fat diet,the Cmax and AUC of rapeprazole sodium after high-fat and high-calorie diet decreased,Cmax decreased by 6.12％,AUC0-t decreased by 5.05％,AUC0-∞ decreased by 5.01％,andtmaxwas delayed by about 3.34 h.Cmax,AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ 90％confidence interval were 73.13％-115.10％,83.22％-112.28％and 83.40％-112.13％,respectively.Neither was between 85.00％-125.00％.Conclusion High-fat diet affects the absorption rate and degree of rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated,so it is suitable to be administered on an empty stomach.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of patients with coronary in-stent restenosis(ISR)who underwent drug-coated balloon(DCB)treatment,based on different clinical presentations.Methods This prospective study included 508 patients diagnosed with coronary ISR at Anzhen Hospital,Capital Medical University,between May 2020 and May 2022.All patients received DCB treatment.According to clinical presentation,the patients were divided into an acute coronary syndrome(ACS)group(185 patients)and a non-acute coronary syndrome(non-ACS)group(323 patients).All patients were followed for two years,primarily comparing the incidence of myocardial infarction(MI),target lesion revascularization(TLR),death,and major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)between the two groups.Results Baseline data showed that the ACS group had a significantly higher proportion of hypertension,diabetes,and smoking compared to the non-ACS group(all P＜0.05).Additionally,the ACS group had a higher proportion of B2/C-type lesions,long lesions,and moderate to severe calcified lesions(all P＜0.05).The number,length,and diameter of stents implanted were also significantly larger in the ACS group(all P＞0.05).At the 1-year follow-up,the ACS group had a significantly higher incidence of TLR(8.1％vs.2.5％,P=0.007)and MACE(10.3％vs.5.3％,P=0.047)than the non-ACS group.By the end of the 2-year follow-up,the ACS group still had higher rates of TLR(18.9％vs.10.2％,P=0.007)and MACE(22.7％vs.14.9％,P=0.030).Conclusions ISR patients with ACS have higher cardiovascular risk and more complex lesions.They also experience a higher incidence of adverse events after DCB treatment.

Objective To examine the changing prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Burkholderia cepacia in 52 hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were collected from 52 hospitals between January 1,2015 and December 31,2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility of the strains was tested using Kirby-Bauer method or automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems according to a unified protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released in the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)guidelines(2023 edition).Results A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were isolated from all age groups,especially elderly patients.The proportion was 11.1％(1 032 strains)in children,significantly lower than the proportion in adults.About half(46.5％,4 310/9 261)of the strains were isolated from patients at least 60 years old and 42.3％(3 919/9 261)of the strains were isolated from young adults.Most isolates(71.1％)were isolated from sputum and respiratory secretions,followed by urine(10.7％)and blood samples(8.1％).B.cepacia isolates were highly susceptible to the five antimicrobial agents recommended in the CLSI M100 document(33rd edition,2023).B.cepacia isolates showed relatively higher resistance rates to meropenem and levofloxacin.However,the resistance rates to ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,and minocycline remained below 8.1％.The percentage of B.cepacia strains resistant to levofloxacin was the highest compared to other antibiotics in any of the three age groups(from 12.4％in the patients＜18 years old to 20.6％in the patients aged 60 years or older).Conclusions B.cepacia is one of the clinically important non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria.Accurate and timely reporting of antimicrobial susceptibility test results and ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance are helpful for rational prescription of antimicrobial agents and proper prevention and control of nosocomial infections.

Objective To analyze the age-related changes in proximal pulmonary artery(PPA)based on computed tomography pulmonary angiography(CTPA)images.Methods A total of 327 patients who underwent CTPA were retrospectively selected.Participants were stratified into six age groups by decade:20-29,30-39,40-49,50-59,60-69,and≥70 years.The main pul-monary artery(MPA),right pulmonary artery(RPA),and left pulmonary artery(LPA)were segmented.A cross-section within 1.5 mm of the vascular bifurcation was selected to measure the cross-sectional area(A)and perimeter(P).The hydraulic diameter(Dh)was calculated by 4A/P,and the diameter of a circle of equal area was calculated as the fitted diameter(Dfit).Results Correlation analy-sis revealed positive correlations between age and the diameters of the MPA(r=0.260-0.340,P＜0.01),RPA(r=0.414-0.494,P＜0.01),and LPA(r=0.405-0.478,P＜0.01).For the MPA,the Dfit and Dh showed no significant increase in the first three age groups(P＞0.05);the Dh in the 50-59,60-69,and≥70 age groups was significantly higher than that in the first three age groups(P＜0.05).In the RPA,the Dh and Dfit of the 30-39 age group were significantly higher than those of the 20-29 age group(P＜0.05);the Dh and Dfit of the 50-59 age group were significantly higher than those of the first three age groups(P＜0.05).In the LPA,the Dh and Dfit of the 60-69 age group were significantly higher than those of the first three age groups(P＜0.05).The Dh of both the RPA and LPA was independent predictors of age.Conclusion Pulmonary artery stiffness shows no significant changes in the 20-29,30-39,and 40-49 age groups,but becomes significant starting from the 50-59 age group.The Dh of the bilateral pulmonary artery trunks are age-related predictors.

Objective:To investigate the level of rehabilitation exercise adherence in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction within 6 months post-surgery, analyze its trajectory, and provide a reference for clinical nursing interventions.Methods:Using a convenience sampling method, 150 patients who underwent arthroscopic ACL reconstruction at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2022 to August 2023 were selected. Rehabilitation exercise adherence was assessed monthly from postoperative 1 month (M 1) to 6 months (M 6) using the Orthopedic Functional Exercise Adherence Scale. A latent class growth model was employed to analyze adherence trajectory categories, and Logistic regression was used to identify influencing factors for different adherence trajectories. Results:A total of 144 patients completed follow-up (follow-up rate was 96.00%). Exercise adherence scores gradually declined over the 6 months post-surgery, with scores of (50.30±5.39), (45.92±3.85), (39.48±5.27), (35.83±6.19), (31.85±7.59), and (29.88±7.88) from M 1 to M 6, respectively. The difference in scores across time points was statistically significant ( F=85.467, P<0.01). Three potential categories were identified through the latent class growth model: the moderate-high level rapid decline group ( n=65, 45.14%), the moderate-low level stable group ( n=32, 22.22%), and the moderate-low level slow decline group ( n=47, 32.64%). Logistic regression analysis revealed that gender and age were significant factors influencing adherence trajectory categories ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Dynamic declines in rehabilitation exercise adherence are common among ACL reconstruction patients, with varying degrees of decline. Gender and age may influence adherence trajectories, suggesting that targeted management strategies could be implemented in clinical practice.
