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 development and job adaptability of specialized nurses in Liaoning Province, and to provide basis for further improving the job adaptability of specialized nurses.Methods:In August 2024, provincial-level or above specialized nurses from secondary and above hospitals in 14 cities of Liaoning Province were selected by convenient sampling method, and their job adaptation was investigated using General Information Questionnaire and Workers' Job Adaptation Scale to conduct cross-sectional research.Results:A total of 3 460 valid questionnaires were collected. Among the 3 460 specialized nurses, tertiary hospitals accounted for 91.01% (3 149/3 460), undergraduates accounted for 89.28% (3 089/3 460), and 51.13% (1 769/3 460) were aged from 36 to 45. The top three training specialties for specialized nurses were severe illness, operating room and intravenous infusion therapy, and the training duration was mostly 6 to 12 weeks, accounting for 58.70% (2 031/3 460). After training, they mostly engaged in specialized disease care/case care, accounting for 86.07% (2 978/3 460); In terms of hospital security, 71.16% (2 462/3 460) of the specialized nurses said that the working conditions provided by the hospital could meet their work needs, 43.93% (1 520/3 460) said that the hospital performance was reasonable, 43.29% (1 498/3 460) said that there were sufficient promotion opportunities, and 49.28% (1 705/3 460) said that the hospital has dedicated positions for specialized nurses. The score of the Job Fit Scale for Professional Nurses was (37.36 ± 6.30) points, including the attribute fit dimension (12.45 ± 2.32) points, the demand-supply fit dimension (11.84 ± 2.57) points and the ability-requirement fit dimension (13.06 ± 2.12) points.Conclusions:The post adaptability of provincial-level or above specialized nurses in Liaoning province is in the high level, but the distribution of specialized nurses is uneven, and the proportion of secondary hospitals is low. The training mechanism for specialized nurses has gradually matured, but some of them are not fully played, and there is little participation in scientific research and innovation activities after training. Therefore, it is suggested that in the future work, secondary hospitals should be encouraged to select nursing backbones according to their needs to participate in specialized training programs to improve nurses' professional skills; Nursing managers encourage specialized nurses to consciously participate in systematic scientific research training to enhance their nursing scientific research ability; rational use of specialist nurses in hospitals, giving full play to their professional advantages, and promoting the development of specialties.

Objective:To retrieve, evaluate and integrate the evidence related to postoperative exercise rehabilitation for hip fracture in elderly frail patients, and provide reference for clinical rehabilitation nursing.Methods:Evidence on postoperative exercise rehabilitation of hip fractures in elderly frail patients was systemically retrieved in the guideline websites, professional association websites and databases, such as BMJ Best Practice, UpToDate, PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Embase, Chinese Biomedical Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang and VIP, including Best practices, guidelines, clinical decisions, evidence summaries, systematic reviews, and expert consensus. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to March 31, 2024.Results:A total of 33 articles were involved, including 12 guidelines, 2 clinical decisions, 7 systematic reviews, 7 expert consensuses, 5 evidence summaries. Forty pieces of evidence were summarized in 7 aspects: the role of exercise, exercise assessment, exercise planning, exercise content, exercise intensity, exercise adherence, exercise nursing, exercise guidance.Conclusions:Healthcare professionals should combine patients' tolerance, rehabilitation goals, and specific clinical situations to target and guide patients in exercise rehabilitation to promote the recovery of postoperative limb function, mitigate frailty, and improve the quality of life.

Objective To establish an efficient DNA extraction method for the batch identification of genotypes in model mice.Methods We extracted total DNA from transgenic mouse tails using four methods:alkaline simplified group,alkaline routine group,protease K cleavage group and DNA extraction kit group.The purity and concentration of DNA obtained by the four methods were measured,the effects of gel electrophoresis were evaluated,and the time and experimental costs of the four methods were compared.Results The protease K cleavage method produced the highest concentration of DNA,followed by the simplified alkaline boiling and routine alkaline boiling method.The reagent kit produced the highest DNA purity,followed by the simplified alkaline boiling method.The DNA templates obtained by the four method could be amplified by polymerase chain reaction and gel electrophoresis to obtain clear DNA target bands.In addition,the DNA template extracted by the simplified alkaline boiling method could be used for gene identification after storage at-20℃for 1 month,as well as requiring the least time and lowest costs.Conclusions The simplified alkaline boiling method is currently the simplest,fastest,and most economical DNA template-extraction method for batch identification of genotypes in model mice.

Objective To establish an animal model of hand,foot,and mouth disease(HFMD)in Syrian hamsters coinfected with coxsackievirus A6(CVA6)and coxsackievirus B1(CVB1).Methods 42 Syrian hamsters were divided into a CVA6 infection group,CVB1 infection group,CVA6 and CVB1 coinfection group and control group.A HFMD model was established by nasal instillation of virus solution and phosphate-buffered saline.Clinical and physiological indicators and detoxification status were monitored and recorded for 15 d,and animals were selected on day 7(D7)after infection for histopathology and viral antigen and nucleic acid testing.Results Hamsters in the single-infection and coinfection groups showed clinical symptoms similar to human HFMD.White blood cell,neutrophil,and lymphocyte result were characteristic of viral infection.Both viral nucleic acids were detected in throat swabs,feces,blood,and tissues and both viruses were isolated from fecal samples.Pathological damage and positive co-localization of CVA6 and CVB1 viral antigen proteins and nucleic acids were found in brain and other tissues.Conclusions Nasal instillation of a CVA6 and CVB1 mixture can successfully coinfect Syrian hamsters,replicate herpes infection similar to human HFMD,and cause pathological viral myocarditis and encephalitis damage.The result showed that the coinfection group was more seriously affected than the single-infection group,with worse clinical symptoms,increased viral replication,and obvious tissue pathological damage.This study provides a reference for further basic and clinical research into human enterovirus coinfection.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathological parameters and risk factors of the patients with connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease(CTD-ILD)complicated with Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)viraemia.Methods The CTD-ILD pa-tients admitted to Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine,Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from January 2023 to April 2024 were collected.Based on the detection results of EBV DNA,the patients were divided into the EBV DNA(+)group and EBV DNA(-)group.The clinicopathological parameters of the two groups were analyzed.Results Out of 162 CTD-ILD patients who underwent EBV DNA testing,a total of 28 were found to have EBV viraemia.The levels of serum albumin([32.7±4.1]g/L vs[34.8±3.8]g/L,t=2.559,P＜0.05),oxygenation index([268.5±94.0]mmHg vs[323.2±120.9]mmHg,t=2.062,P＜0.05),and percentages of predicted diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide([30.9±15.3]% vs[44.9±18.8]%,t=2.127,P＜0.05])in the EBV DNA(+)group were significantly lower than those in the EBV DNA(-)group,while the levels of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH,[369.1±206.2]U/L vs[298.8±128.7]U/L,t=2.335,P＜0.05)were significantly higher than that in the EBV DNA(-)group.The acute exacerbation of ILD in the EBV DNA(+)group was more common than that in the EBV DNA(-)group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Lo-gistic analysis showed that honeycombing and low oxygenation index were independent risk factors of CTD-ILD patients complicated with EBV viraemia.Conclusion The CTD-ILD patients complicated with EBV viraemia have poorer oxygenation and are more prone to suf-fer from acute exacerbation of ILD.Honeycombing in chest HRCT and low oxygenation index are independent risk factors of CTD-ILD patients complicated with EBV viraemia.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of common pathogens isolated from cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)in CHINET program from 2015 to 2021.Methods The bacterial strains isolated from CSF were identified in accordance with clinical microbiology practice standards.Antimicrobial susceptibility test was conducted using Kirby-Bauer method and automated systems per the unified CHINET protocol.Results A total of 14 014 bacterial strains were isolated from CSF samples from 2015 to 2021,including the strains isolated from inpatients(95.3％)and from outpatient and emergency care patients(4.7％).Overall,19.6％of the isolates were from children and 80.4％were from adults.Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria accounted for 68.0％and 32.0％,respectively.Coagulase negative Staphylococcus accounted for 73.0％of the total Gram-positive bacterial isolates.The prevalence of MRSA was 38.2％in children and 45.6％in adults.The prevalence of MRCNS was 67.6％in adults and 69.5％in children.A small number of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium(2.2％)and linezolid-resistant Enterococcus faecalis(3.1％)were isolated from adult patients.The resistance rates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae to ceftriaxone were 52.2％and 76.4％in children,70.5％and 63.5％in adults.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant E.coli and K.pneumoniae(CRKP)was 1.3％and 47.7％in children,6.4％and 47.9％in adults.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)and Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)was 74.0％and 37.1％in children,81.7％and 39.9％in adults.Conclusions The data derived from antimicrobial resistance surveillance are crucial for clinicians to make evidence-based decisions regarding antibiotic therapy.Attention should be paid to the Gram-negative bacteria,especially CRKP and CRAB in central nervous system(CNS)infections.Ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance is helpful for optimizing antibiotic use in CNS infections.

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.

2019 novel coronavirus pneumonia(COVID-19)is a serious acute infectious disease caused by novel coronavirus(SARS CoV-2)infection,with fever,dry cough and fatigue as the main symptoms.In recent years,studies have suggested that the male reproductive system can be directly invaded by novel coronavirus,with the testis as one of its target organs.Therefore,infection with novel coronavirus can cause the development and aggravation of such diseases as male erectile dysfunction,male infertility,prosta-titis,etc.However,no consensus has been reached whether such impacts will be mitigated or remain after recovery from COVID-19,and few reports are available on the mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 inducing male reproductive diseases based on the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)and Western medicine.This review systematically summarizes the impacts of SARS-CoV-2 on male reproductive health and the etiological principles in the perspective of both TCM and Western medicine.
