Objective To explore the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection and its association with dietary and lifestyle habits among the adult physical examination population in Xuzhou area. Methods Retrospectively selected the physical examination population who underwent HP testing at our hospital's physical examination center from May 2021 to December 2023 as the research object. The prevalence of Hp infection in the population was analyzed based on the physical examination results. A questionnaire survey was used to collect information on the eating and living habits of all study subjects. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between eating and living habits and Hp infection. Results A total of 1 354 physical examination people were included in the study, and the Hp infection rate was 37.30% (505/1354). The difference in Hp infection rates among people of different age groups is statistically significant (P<0.05), with the middle-aged population (41-59 years old) having the highest Hp positive infection rate (45.38%).High salt (41.11%), hot diet (40.56%), history of smoking (45.23%) and drinking (43.80%), less consumption of fruits and vegetables (43.73%), irregular exercise (41.29%), irregular diet People who frequently eat out (43.56%) and eat out frequently (42.57%) have a higher Hp infection rate (P<0.05).After adjusting for demographic factors such as gender, age, place of residence and education level, multivariate Logistic regression results showed that high-salt diet (OR=3.975, 95%CI: 2.670-5.917) and hot diet (OR=3.357, 95%CI: 2.291-4.919), smoking (OR=1.458, 95%CI: 1.082-1.964), drinking alcohol (OR=1.654, 95%CI: 1.279-2.138), eating fruits and vegetables (OR=1.759, 95%CI: 1.345-2.301), regular exercise (OR=1.822, 95%CI: 1.371-2.421), regular diet (OR=1.893, 95%CI: 1.391-2.575), eating out (OR=1.690, 95%CI: 1.277-2.237) were associated with the risk of Hp infection (P<0.05). Conclusion The positive infection rate of Hp among the physical examination population in Xuzhou is slightly lower than the average epidemic level in China. Cultivating healthy eating and living habits can effectively reduce the risk of Hp infection.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of subanesthetic dose of esketamine on postoperative anxiety and recovery in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. METHODS A total of 200 patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy at Suzhou Ninth Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University from January 2023 to December 2024 were randomly assigned to control group （n＝100） and observation group （n＝100）. One minute before the initiation of anesthesia， patients in the control group received intravenous injections of Propofol emulsion injection， Sufentanil citrate injection， and Succinylcholine chloride injection. On this basis， patients in the observation group received an intravenous injection of Esketamine hydrochloride injection. The anxiety status of patients in both groups was compared， along with their general intraoperative conditions （including sufentanil dosage， duration of pneumoperitoneum， operative time， anesthesia time， and extubation time）， postoperative recovery， incidence of adverse reactions， and the need for dezocine rescue analgesia. Heart rate and mean arterial pressure， entropy index （state entropy and response entropy）， inflammatory marker levels [interleukin-6 （IL-6） and C-reactive protein （CRP）]， numerical rating scale （NRS） for pain intensity were compared between the two groups at different time points. RESULTS No significant differences were found between the two groups in pneumoperitoneum duration， operative time， anesthesia time，extubation time， incidence of postoperative dry mouth， entropy index or length of stay in the post-anesthesia care unit （P＞0.05）. Compared with the control group， the observation group showed significantly lower postoperative STAI-S scores， reduced intraoperative sufentanil consumption， decreased incidence of postoperative nausea， vomiting， and shivering， the need for dezocine rescue analgesia， as well as lower plasma IL-6 and CRP levels at 24 h after surgery， and NRS （P＜0.05）. The heart rate and mean arterial pressure of patients in the observation group at the start of surgery， end of surgery， and during extubation were all significantly higher than those in the control group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Subanesthetic dose of esketamine can effectively alleviate postoperative anxiety， reduce intraoperative opioid consumption， suppress postoperative inflammatory response， relieve postoperative pain， and promote recovery in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Flap transplantation is a critical surgical strategy for the reconstruction of tissue defects caused by trauma, tumor resection, and congenital malformations, and its survival rate directly determines surgical efficacy and patient prognosis. Following transplantation, flaps inevitably undergo ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, during which oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, and metabolic disturbances are intricately intertwined, ultimately leading to cellular injury and tissue necrosis. Recent studies have demonstrated that multiple forms of programmed cell death—including apoptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, necroptosis, and PANoptosis—play central roles in flap I/R injury. The extensive crosstalk and molecular interactions among these pathways form a highly complex cell death network. Specifically, apoptosis is mediated by the imbalance of Bcl-2 family proteins and the activation of cysteine-dependent aspartate-specific protease (caspase) cascades; pyroptosis is driven by the NLRP3-caspase-1-GSDMD axis, resulting in membrane pore formation and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines; ferroptosis is characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation and dysfunction of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4); necroptosis is triggered by the receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1)-RIPK3-MLKL signaling complex, leading to membrane rupture; and PANoptosis represents an integrated form of inflammatory cell death that coordinates multiple death pathways. Importantly, these forms of programmed cell death are not independent but are interconnected through extensive signaling crosstalk. Key regulatory molecules, including caspase-8, reactive oxygen species (ROS), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), and nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), collectively modulate the dynamic balance among these pathways. Therefore, the multidimensional interplay and spatiotemporal dynamics of programmed cell death constitute a fundamental pathological basis of flap I/R injury. This review systematically summarizes the latest advances in the mechanisms and interactions of various programmed cell death pathways in flap I/R injury, aiming to elucidate the underlying regulatory network. These insights may provide novel theoretical foundations for optimizing flap protection strategies, improving flap survival, and promoting tissue repair.

OBJECTIVE To improve the research capacity and research enthusiasm of dispensing pharmacists in pharmacy intravenous admixture services （PIVAS）， facilitate their career development， and further promote the sustainable development of hospital pharmacy disciplines. METHODS A full-chain pharmacy practice research path covering topic orientation， topic evaluation， and implementation was explored and constructed for PIVAS. Multiple approaches including framework condensation for topic selection， department empowerment and improved incentive mechanisms were adopted to systematically boost the research competence and enthusiasm of PIVAS dispensing pharmacists. Four dimensions of indicators， including PIVAS research output， operational level， career development of staff and external influence， were compared between the pre-implementation period （2020- 2022） and post-implementation period （2023-2025） to evaluate the implementation effect of the path. RESULTS After the application of the PIVAS pharmacy practice research path， the number of published papers and comprehensive quality score of papers increased by 150.00% and 161.90% respectively compared with those before implementation. The number of approved research projects and comprehensive quality score of projects rose by 166.67% and 225.00%， and the number of authorized patents increased by 100.00%. The monthly number of external errors decreased from （0.42±0.18） pieces/month pre-implementation to （0.28±0.23） pieces/month post-implementation （P＞0.05）. Dispensing efficiency was elevated from （121.83±2.48） bags/（hour· person） to （139.00±3.46） bags/（hour·person） （P＜0.05）. The research participation rate of PIVAS dispensing pharmacists grew from 15.00% to 50.00%， and the overall satisfaction rate of staff increased from 55.00% to 85.00% （P＜0.05）. Within the 3 years after path implementation， our hospital PIVAS received a total of 22 trainees from external medical institutions， and the number of external institutional visits increased by 374.07% versus the pre-implementation stage. CONCLUSIONS The constructed pharmacy practice research path for PIVAS can significantly improve PIVAS research output， operational efficiency and external influence， and effectively promote the career growth of dispensing pharmacists working in PIVAS.

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 investigate the nutritional risk status of children in PICU and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:From July 2021 to February 2023,all children aged 1 to 18 years admitted to PICU of Beijing Children's Hospital were investigated by using the pediatric Yorkhill Malnutrition Scoring tool(PYMS)and the clinical data questionnaire.Results:A total of 492 children in PICU were enrolled.The first nutritional risk screening results showed that there were 32 cases of no/low nutritional risk(6.5%),76 cases of medium risk(15.4%),and 384 cases of high risk(78.1%).The incidence of medium/high nutritional risk was as high as 93.5%.The PYMS score of nutritional risk in PICU was(2.61±1.42).The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that weight,fever time before admission,white blood cells,body mass index,primary diagnosis,father's education,and diet before illness were the main influencing factors of nutritional risk of children in PICU(P<0.05).Conclusion:Children in PICU are in a state of high nutritional risk.It is suggested that children in PICU should carry out nutritional screening in a standardized manner,identify children with high nutritional risk and its influencing factors early.To actively conduct nutritional assessment and nutritional intervention could improve the clinical outcome of children in PICU.

Objective:To analyze the molecular characteristics of prevalent Bordetella pertussis (Bp) isolates in Liaocheng City, Shandong Province in 2024. Methods:From March to August 2024, oropharyngeal swabs were collected from suspected pertussis cases at Liaocheng People′s Hospital in Shandong Province for Bp isolation. A total of 99 Bp isolates were obtained. Whole-genome sequencing was performed on all isolates, followed by Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST), vaccine antigen-related gene typing (including ptxP, ptxA, ptxB, ptxC, ptxD, ptxE, fhaB, fim2, fim3, and prn), 23S rRNA gene typing, and phylogenetic analysis. To capture the differences between Bp isolates and vaccine strains in Liaocheng City, the international vaccine strain Tohama I and the Chinese vaccine strain CS were included in the analysis. Antimicrobial resistance testing against 11 agents was performed on 52 isolates. Results:The throat swabs of 99 Bp isolates were collected from patients aged 44 days to 42 years, and the median age of the patients was 7 (5, 8) years. All isolates ptxP were ptxP3 type. 74 isolates (74.75%) carried the prn150, while 21 isolates (21.21%) were prn-deficient. The predominant antigenic profile was ptxP3/ ptxA1/ ptxB1/ ptxC4/ ptxD1/ ptxE4/ fhaB1/ fim2-1/ fim3-1/ prn150, found in 72 isolates (72.73%). All 99 isolates carried the A2047G mutation in the 23S rRNA gene. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing showed that the MICs of macrolides and clindamycin for all 52 Bp isolates were all >256 mg/L. However, the isolates showed low MIC for seven other antimicrobials tested, including trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, amoxicillin, and levofloxacin. MLST typing revealed that 94 isolates (94.95%) were identified as ST-2, while 5 isolates (5.05%) belonged to a novel sequence type (ST-118). Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that all 99 Bp isolates were highly homologous but clustered in evolutionary branches distinct from vaccine strains. Conclusion:In 2024, Bordetella pertussis isolates in Liaocheng City exhibit distinct clonal epidemic characteristics, with the predominant antigenic genotype being ptxP3/ ptxA1/ ptxB1/ ptxC4/ ptxD1/ ptxE4/ fhaB1/ fim2-1/ fim3-1/ prn150. All isolates are resistant to macrolide antibiotics.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological features of traditional serrated adenoma(TSA).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data,endoscopic,and pathological features of 200 TSA patients.HE staining and immunohistochemical staining were performed.The clinical pathological features were statistically analyzed using x2 test,and relevant literature was reviewed.Results There were 114 males(57.0％)and 86 females(43.0％),with ages ranging from 27 to 92 years(mean age 56.2 years).Among the patients,147(73.5％)were aged ≥ 50 years,and 53(26.5％)were aged＜50 years.Of the 207 TSA lesions,143(69.1％)were located in the distal colon and rectum,while 57(27.5％)were in the proximal colon and rectum.Endoscopic features included 72 lesions(34.8％)with a perpendiculated appearance,48 lesions(23.2％)with a flat appear-ance,and some exhibiting a pinecone-like appearance.The maximum diameter of the lesions was ≤ 10 mm in 136 ca-ses(65.7％),and＞10 mm in 71 cases(34.3％).The typical histopathological features of TSA included serrated contours,eosinophilic cytoplasm,pencil-like nuclei,and ectopic crypt foci.The most common pathological type was the classic TSA(152 lesions,73.4％),followed by the mucin-rich TSA(39 lesions,18.8％).12 cases(5.8％)of TSA exhibited high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia(HGIN)and 3 case(1.5％)of TSA progressed to carcinoma,con-sistent with TSA-originated colorectal cancer(TSA-CRC).Immunophenotype:in 34 cases TSA,Ki67 showed diffuse positivity in basal cells and scattered positivity on the surface.In all 35 cases TSA,p53 showed weak positive nuclear positivity(1％to 60％),and PTEN and MLH1 were retained.In the 12 cases of TSA with HGIN and 3 cases of TSA-CRC,Ki67 showed diffusely positive,CK20 was strongly positive diffusely,and MLH1 was retained.In 9 cases of TSA with HGIN,p53 was diffusely strongly positive,and in 12 cases,PTEN was lost.All 3 cases of TSA-CRC showed dif-fuse strong nuclear p53 positivity.The molecular detection showed there were BRAF V600E gene mutation in 8 cases.There were 6 cases with KRAS G12V mutation as well as 1 case with KRAS G13D mutation among the 7 cases of KRAS mutation.The primary surgical approach(111 cases,53.6％)was endoscopic mucosal resection(EMR).Conclu-sion TSA exhibits characteristic histological and endoscopic features.Lesions with a maximum diameter＞10 mum are more likely to progress to HGIN or adenocarcinoma.It is crucial to enhance the awareness of pathologists and clini-cians,particularly regarding TSA with atypical hyperplasia or invasive carcinoma,to avoid misdiagnosis and missed di-agnoses.

Objective To explore the relationship between disease risk perception and objective risk in stroke risk population,and to provide theoretical basis for prevention and control of stroke.Methods From February to May 2023,560 residents who participated in medical examinations in 2 community health service centers of Zhengzhou and Luohe were selected as respondents.The objective risk of stroke was assessed,and the general data questionnaire and Risk Perception Questionnaire for People at High Risk of Stroke were used for investigation.Logistic regression model and restricted cubic spline model were used to analyze the correlation and the dose-response relationship between disease risk perception and objective stroke risk.Results A total of 542 effective questionnaires were collected.The detection rate of stroke high-risk groups was 48.71％.Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting confounding factors,the objective risk of stroke in the general population and in different gender stratification decreased first and then increased with the increase of the level of disease risk perception.The results of the restricted cubic spline showed that the disease risk perception and objective risk of stroke in the total population and gender stratification showed a nonlinear dose-response relationship(P nonlinear＜0.05),and the curve showed a"U"type change.The disease risk perception score of 90.0～110.0 was the protective factor of objective risk of stroke.Conclusion The objective risk of stroke decreases first and then increases with the increase of the perceived risk.Medical staff should maintain individual disease risk perception within the appropriate level,and pay attention to the difference in disease risk perception of different gender groups to implement targeted risk communication strategies,so as to promote the development of healthy behaviors and reduce the incidence of stroke.

Objective To explore the feasibility of protocol with low tube voltage,low contrast agent dose,low injection rate,and low trigger threshold based on body weight in coronary computed tomography angiography(CCTA).Methods Patients suspected with coronary heart disease who underwent 320 rows of CCTA were prospectively selected.They were divided into 4 groups:＜60 kg,60-70 kg,71-80 kg,＞80 kg based on different body weights,120 cases for each group,then were randomly divided into experimental group and control group using a random number table method,with 60 patients in each group.Each case in the control group had a tube voltage of 120 kV and a trigger threshold of 240 HU;each case in the experimental group had a tube voltage of 100 kV and a trigger threshold of 190 HU.According to the CCTA application guidelines,the iodine flow rate was used to determine the contrast agent injection rate in the control group,while the injection rate in the experimental group was reduced by 30%.Using an injection time of 12 s,the control group's contrast agent dose was obtained,and that of the experimental group decreased by 30%.Two radiologists evaluated the CT values,contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR),image quality score,and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of the middle segment of the right coronary artery,proximal segment of the left anterior descending branch,and proximal segment of the left circumflex branch,as well as compared the effective dose(ED)of volume scanning and threshold monitoring sequences.One-way ANOVA,independent sample t-test,and Mann-Whitney U-test were used to evaluate the differences in each parameter.Results There were no statistically significant differences in general information and subjective image scores between the experimental group and the control group(P＞0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in CT values,CNR,and SNR between the experimental group and the control group at different body weights for the middle segment of the right coronary artery,the proximal segment of the left anterior descending branch,and the proximal segment of the left circumflex branch(P＞0.05).In terms of radiation dose,the comparison between the control group and the experimental group at the same body weights showed statistically significant differences both in volume scanning and threshold monitoring sequences(P＜0.001),and the ED of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group.Conclusion The protocol with low tube voltage,low contrast agent dose,low injection rate,and low trigger threshold determined based on different body weights can achieve satisfactory image quality for CCTA,while significantly reducing the radiation dose of volume scanning and threshold monitoring sequences.
