Objective:To investigate the biological effects of acute high-dose radon exposure on mice.Methods:BALB/c male mice aged 6 to 8 weeks were exposed once in an HD-3 ecological radon chamber with an average radon concentration of 7 × 10 5 Bq/m 3 for 10 h. Mice were weighed, their lung tissues and blood samples were collected at 1, 2 and 3 months after exposure. Control groups were set up at the three time points with four mice in each group. For these mice, the lung tissue pathology was observed using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining method, routine blood tests were conducted using a hematology analyzer and the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in the serum and lung tissues were measured using corresponding assay kits. Results:The HE staining result revealed that compared to the control groups, the experimental groups exhibited thickening of alveolar walls and increased infiltration of granulocyte, whose degrees, however, reduced over time and displayed no significant difference at 3 months after exposure. There was no significant difference in body weight or blood routine between the experimental and control groups. The detection result revealed decreased SOD levels in the lung tissues at 2 months after exposure, which were (11.34 ± 1.03) U/mgprot and (9.75 ± 0.71) U/mgprot, respectively for the control and experimental groups ( t = 2.54, P < 0.05). The MDA levels in lung tissue increased at 1 month after exposure, which were(2.30 ± 0.24) and (2.77 ± 0.29) nmol/mgprot, respectively for the control and experimental groups ( t = 2.49, P < 0.05). At 3 months after exposure, the SOD and MDA levels differed insignificantly between the control and experimental groups ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:After acute high-dose radon exposure, the mice suffered damage to the lung tissue, with changes in their oxidative stress indicators being detected. However, these effects gradually diminished at 3 months after exposure. Additionally, acute high-dose radon exposure did not give rise to significant changes in the body weight or routine blood result of the mice.

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 To explore the relationship between serum microRNA(miR)-122 and microRNA(miR)-558 levels and cardiac function and heart rate variability in patients with chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods A total of 100 patients with chronic heart failure who were hospitalized in Wuhan Dongxihu District Poeple's Hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 were regarded as the study group,and 100 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations in the hospital during the same period served as the control group.The real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method was applied to detect the expressiou levels of serum miR-122 and miR-558 in two groups.The heart rate variability and cardiac function indicators of the two groups were compared.Pearson method was applied to analyze the correlation between serum miR-122 and miR-558 expression levels,and heart rate variability and cardiac function indicators in patients with chronic heart failure.Logistic regression was applied to analyze the risk factors affecting chronic heart failure.Results Compared with the control group,the serum miR-122(0.86±0.19 vs 1.07±0.16),heart rate variability indicators,and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)of patients with chronic heart failure were decreased(t=3.844～15.448),and the expression level of miR-558(1.28±0.27 vs 1.02±0.12)and left ventricular end diastolic volume index(LVEDVI),left ventricular end systolic volume index(LVESVI)were increased(t=6.794～9.358),and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The expression level of serum miR-122(1.19±0.23,1.04±0.21)in patients with functional grades Ⅰ to Ⅱ was higher than that in patients with grades Ⅲ to Ⅳ(0.68±0.16,0.53±0.15),while the expression level of miR-558(0.93±0.24,1.21±0.26)was lower than that in patients with grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ(1.42±0.27,1.64±0.29),with significant differences(qmiR-122=3.751～14.568,qmiR-558=3.929～11.194.all P＜0.05).The serum miR-122 level in patients with chronic heart failure was positively correlated with heart rate variability indicators and LVEF(r=0.337～0.573),but negatively correlated with LVEDVI and LVESVI(r=-0.385,-0.323).Serum miR-558 was negatively correlated with heart rate variability indicators and LVEF(r=-0.646～-0.246),but positively correlated with LVEDVI and LVESVI(r=0.528,0.547).Serum miR-122[OR(95％CI)=0.528(0.328～0.850)]and miR-558[OR(95％CI)=2.845(1.364～5.933)]were influencing factors for chronic heart failure(P＜0.05).Conclusion The expression levels of serum miR-122 and miR-558 in patients with chronic heart failure were closely related to heart rate variability and cardiac function,indicating that serum miR-122 and miR-558 may be influencing factors of chronic heart failure.

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.

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.

Based on the traditional medical theory,the theory of"ear-brain-liver-spleen correlation"was proposed by linking the ear with the brain,liver and spleen.Then,by combining the Chinese medical etiology of Functional Dyspepsia(FD)and the corresponding modern medical mechanism,we realized that the close connection between the ear,brain,liver and spleen is the theoretical basis for treating FD from the ear.In recent years,a new type of vagus nerve stimulation therapy,auricular concha eletro-acupuncture(ACEA),has been developed to treat FD by regulating the liver and spleen through the regulation of the brain,relieving liver depression and strengthening spleen and qi,thus treating FD.In terms of modern medicine,this is related to its ability to reduce anxiety and depression,reduce pain perception,enhance gastrointestinal motility and reduce central and peripheral inflammation by regulating the activity of the corresponding brain functional areas.By exploring the application of auricular concha eletro-acupuncture in FD on the basis of the"ear-brain-liver-spleen correlation",we will better understand the unique role of auricular stimulation in regulating the brain and the blood of the liver and spleen,and promote the inheritance,innovation and development of TCM theory.

Aim To explore the molecular mechanism atherosclerosis by network pharmacology and in vitro of Gualou Xiebai Banxia decoction in the treatment of study.Methods All chemical constituents and targets of Gualou Xiehai Banxia decoction were retrieved from TCMSP database.OMIM, DrugBank and TTD databas¬es were searched with "atherosclerosis" as the search term , and the related targets of atherosclerosis were ob¬tained after eliminating duplicate options.DAVID da¬tabase was used for GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis of intersection targets.Finally, the analysis results were confirmed in the ox-LDL induced human aortic endothelial cell injury model.Results A total of 30 active compound molecules in Gualou Xiebai Banxia decoction and 78 potential targets for the treat¬ment of atherosclerosis were retrieved.The therapeutic targets were mainly related to inflammatory pathway, apoptosis and so on.(3-sitosterol was chosen as a po¬tential pharmacodynamic molecule for the treatment of atherosclerosis to verify the correctness of the results of network pharmacological analysis.In vitro experiments showed that, (3-sitosterol could prevent ox-LDL in¬duced apoptosis of human aortic endothelial cells and significantly reduce the level of IL-ip, 1L-6 and TNF- cx in cell culture medium, and protein expression of p- NF-kB/NF-kB, 1L-1 p, 1L-6 and TNF-a in cells.Conclusions The treatment effect of Gualou Xiebai Banxia decoction on atherosclerosis is mainly mediated by regulating inflammation, apoptosis and other path¬ways through multi-component effect, multiple targets and multiple pathways.

To screen the available tomato pollution-safe cultivar varieties and reduce the potential food safety risks in Cd-polluted areas, the differences of Cd accumulation in different tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) varieties in southern China were studied by soil culture and hydroponic experiments. Firstly, the high and low accumulation varieties were selected from 25 tomato varieties under 2.94 mg/kg Cd stress by soil culture test, and then the responses of high and low accumulation tomato varieties to Cd stress were determined by hydroponic experiments. The results of soil culture test show that under 2.94 mg/kg Cd stress, there were significant differences in plant height, total biomass and yield among 25 tomato cultivars, and the Cd contents of fruits of all 25 tomato cultivars exceeded the highest limit value (0.05 mg/kg) of CAC (Codex alimentarius commission). Through cluster analysis, 7, 4 and 14 varieties accumulating relatively high, medium, and low concentrations of Cd in the fruits were screened, among which the highest, the lowest, and the average Cd contents in the fruits were 3.06 mg/kg DW, 1.47 mg/kg DW, and 2.21 mg/kg DW, respectively. The results of hydroponic experiment show that under the same concentration of Cd stress, Qiantangxuri F1, a high Cd accumulating variety, absorbed Cd faster, accumulated more Cd, used shorter oxidative stress response time and had stronger tolerance to Cd than Zhefen 3053, a low Cd accumulating variety. The typical high and low Cd accumulating varieties can provide a reference for agricultural production in heavy metal polluted areas and the development of molecular-assisted breeding methods of PSC. At present, cultivating low Cd accumulating PSC varieties and dynamic monitoring of Cd contents in tomato fruits are feasible methods in medium and light Cd-polluted areas.
