Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and disease burden of malignant tumors in Shijiazhuang in 2021. Methods Based on data from the Shijiazhuang City Cancer Registry, incidence and mortality indicators for malignant tumors were calculated, including crude rates, age-standardized rates (using Chinese and world standard populations), and the cumulative rate (0−74 years old), to describe the epidemiological profile. The disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), years of life lost (YLLs), and years lived with disability (YLDs) were calculated to estimate the disease burden of malignant tumors. Results In 2021, a total of 13250 new cancer cases were recorded. The crude incidence rate was 275.50/10⁵, the ASR China was 177.17/10⁵, the ASR world was 172.11/10⁵, and the cumulative rate (0–74 years old) was17.77%. The age-specific incidence of malignant tumors reached its peak in the age group of 80–84 years old. A total of 7165 deaths were noted, and the crude mortality rate was 148.98/10⁵. The ASR China was 85.13/10⁵, the ASR world was 84.52/10⁵, and the cumulative rate (0–74 years old) was 9.49%. The age-specific mortality of malignant tumors reached its peak in the age group of above 85 years old. Lung cancer and breast cancer were the most common malignant tumors in males and females. The DALYs of malignant tumors were 87725.29 person-years, and the DALY rate was 18.24‰. YLL was 85392.09 person-years (97.34%), and YLD was 2333.19 person-years (2.66%). Lung cancer had the heaviest disease burden with DALY of 22687.12 person-years, accounting for 25.86% of all malignant tumors, followed by gastric, liver, colorectal and esophageal cancers. Conclusion Cancers of the lung, liver, female breast, stomach, and colorectum are the major health threats in Shijiazhuang. Malignant tumor brings heavy burden to residents of Shijiazhuang city. To decrease the disease burden of cancer, scholars should pay more attention, and implement preventive measures early.

BackgroundObstructive sleep apnea （OSA） represents a prevalent sleep disordered breathing condition characterized by complex pathophysiology. The arousal threshold （ArTH）， a core non-anatomical contributor to OSA pathogenesis， is intimately tied to the disease severity and clinical phenotypes. To date， research regarding factors associated with ArTH has yielded inconsistent findings， and ArTH profiles and disparities across populations with different genetic backgrounds are not fully elucidated. ObjectiveTo explore the differences of ArTH in OSA patients with different genetic backgrounds and analyze the key factors affecting ArTH， thereby providing evidence for understanding OSA pathophysiology and formulating targeted treatment regimens. MethodsA total of 285 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for OSA， as defined by the Multidisciplinary Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines for Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea， were retrospectively enrolled in this study. All participants underwent overnight polysomnography （PSG） at the Sleep Medicine Center of Inner Mongolia Mental Health Center from December 2022 to May 2024. Based on the study design， the cohort was stratified into two distinct genetic background subgroups （group A and group B）. Demographic and clinical characteristics， the Epworth Sleepiness Scale （ESS） score， and overnight PSG data were collected. The apnea hypopnea index （AHI）， the lowest pulse oxygen saturation （LSpO₂）， and fraction of hypopneas （F_Hypopneas） were utilized as surrogate indicators to estimate ArTH in OSA patients. The influencing factors of low ArTH were tested by binary Logistic regression analysis. ResultsAmong the 285 OSA patients， there were 227 cases （79.65%） in group A and 58 cases （20.35%） in group B. Comparisons between the two genetic background subgroups revealed no statistically significant differences in the proportion of low ArTH， ESS score， PSG parameters， and the three markers for low ArTH （AHI<30 events/h， LSpO₂>82.5%， F_Hypopneas>58.3%） （P>0.05）. Binary Logistic regression analysis identified sex （OR=2.421， 95% CI： 1.070–5.478）， BMI （OR=0.847， 95% CI： 0.770–0.932）， N1 sleep duration （OR=0.974， 95% CI： 0.963–0.985）， and hypertension （OR=0.348， 95% CI： 0.143–0.848） as independent factors associated with low ArTH in the total cohort. Stratified analysis by genetic backgrounds revealed that sex（OR=3.799， 95% CI： 1.389–10.392）， BMI（OR=0.819， 95% CI：0.723–0.929）， and N1 sleep duration（OR=0.973， 95% CI： 0.961–0.986） were independent factors of low ArTH in group A. In contrast， only N1 sleep duration （OR=0.951， 95% CI： 0.911–0.993） remained a significant factor in group B. ConclusionArthur may have conservative characteristics in patients with OSA with different genetic backgrounds， but the pathophysiological mechanism of OSA may have population heterogeneity. ［Funded by Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Natural Science Fundation Project （number， 2024QN08050）； Intra-institutional Scientific Research Project of Inner Mongolia Mental Health Center （number， 2022QNWN0010）］

Objective This study aimed to explore the clinical and etiological characteristics of bloodstream infections in diabetic patients with different levels of glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c)for improving empirical diagnosis and treatment in clinical practice.Methods A retrospective study was conducted for diabetic patients with bloodstream infections who were admitted to Sichuan Mental Health Center from 2017 to 2023.Patients were assigned to one of the three groups based on HbA1c levels:low level(HbA1c＜7.0％),medium level(7.0％≤HbA1c＜9.0％),high level(HbA1c≥9.0％).The clinical data,pathogen distribution,and antimicrobial resistance were analyzed and compared between groups.Results A total of 426 diabetic patients with bloodstream infection were included.The proportion of community-acquired bloodstream infection,acidosis,and liver abscess in the high level HbA1c group were significantly higher than those in the medium and low level HbA1c groups.Overall,452 strains of nonduplicate pathogenic bacteria were isolated,the most common of which were Escherichia coli(47.1％),Klebsiella pneumoniae(23.0％),and Staphylococcus aureus(5.8％).The pathogens of bloodstream infections varied with different HbA1c levels.The proportion of K.pneumoniae in the high-level HbA1c group(30.7％)was significantly higher than that in the low-level HbA1c group(15.1％)and medium level HbA1c group(16.0％).More than 50％of E.coli isolates were resistant to piperacillin,cefazolin,and ampicillin,while lower than 10％of the isolates were resistant to cefoxitin and minocycline,and lower than 1％of the isolates were resistant to piperacillin-tazobactam,meropenem,imipenem,and amikacin.The E.coli strains isolated from hospital-acquired infections showed slightly higher resistance rates to penicillin,cephalosporins,aminoglycosides,and fluoroquinolones than the strains isolated from community-acquired infections.K.pneumoniae strains showed low resistance rates(＜30％)to the commonly used antibiotics.However,the strains isolated from hospital-acquired infections were significantly more resistant to cephalosporins,carbapenems,and aminoglycosides than the strains isolated from community-acquired infections.Conclusions E.coli,K.pneumoniae and S.aureus were the common pathogens of bloodstream infections in diabetic patients.Poor HbA1c control was associated with K.pneumoniae bloodstream infection,especially those originated from liver abscess.The antibiotic-resistant E.coli and K.pneumoniae strains were prevalent in hospital-acquired bloodstream infections in diabetic patients.Antimicrobial resistance surveillance should be strengthened for this patient population.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Weinan City, Shaanxi Province, and study the predictive effect of the seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) model.Methods:Relevant information on HFRS cases reported by the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System from January 2010 to August 2024 in Weinan City, as well as the epidemiological investigation data on clinical diagnosis and confirmed HFRS cases in Weinan City were collected. Epidemiological characteristics of HFRS were analyzed by descriptive epidemiological methods. At the same time, a SARIMA model was constructed based on the monthly incidence of HFRS from 2010 to 2023, the incidence of HFRS from January to August 2024 was used to test the simulation prediction effect, and the optimal model was used to predict the incidence of HFRS from September to December 2024.Results:A total of 4 373 HFRS cases were reported in Weinan City from 2010 to 2023, with an average annual incidence of 6.39/100 000. The incidence rate showed a cyclical fluctuation trend, reaching two peaks in 2012 (10.25/100 000) and 2021 (12.26/100 000), respectively. The incidence of HFRS presented a seasonal bimodal distribution, with the peak predominantly in autumn and winter (from October to January of the following year), accounting for 67.83% (2 966/4 373), and the peak in spring and summer (form May to July) accounting for 17.27% (755/4 373). HFRS cases were reported in all counties (cities and districts) of Weinan City, and the top 3 annual incidence rates were Huazhou District (17.84/100 000), Linwei District (16.10/100 000) and Huayin City (9.15/100 000). The age of onset was mainly concentrated in the age group of 15 - 59 years old, accounting for 68.31% (2 987/4 373). The male to female ratio was 2.96∶1.00 (3 268∶1 105). The main occupation was farmers, accounting for 82.07% (3 589/4 373). SARIMA (1, 0, 1) (2, 1, 1) 12 model was the optimal model for short-term prediction of HFRS incidence rate in Weinan City, and the residual difference was listed as white noise ( Q = 7.45, P = 0.878), the model could be used for disease prediction. The model was used to predict the incidence of HFRS from September to December 2024, and the predicted values of each month were 0.17/100 000, 0.59/100 000, 1.85/100 000 and 1.61/100 000, respectively. Conclusions:The epidemic range of HFRS in Weinan City is wide, and the incidence has obvious seasonality. The population are mainly males, young and middle-aged adults and farmers. The SARIMA (1, 0, 1) (2, 1, 1) 12 model constructed can be used for predicting the short-term incidence trend of HFRS in Weinan City.

Objective:To evaluate the application value of the Supply-Processing-Distribution(SPD)supply chain mode in the refined management for medical consumables in hospital on the basis of SPD supply chain mode.Methods:An integrated efficiency index system was constructed based on SPD,and the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP)and Entropy Method were used to determine index weights by combined weighting.Medical consumables were classified and managed according to the index weight values.A total of 63,461 types of medical consumables(included low-value medical consumables and high-value medical consumables)that was used in clinical practice at Beijing Anzhen Hospital,Capital Medical University from January to June 2021 and January to June 2023 were selected.In them,the 54,632 types of medical consumables that were used between January and June 2021 were managed by adopting conventional supply chain mode,while 56,471 types of medical consumables that were used(included 47,642 types of medical consumables that were managed by conventional supply chain made at the first stage,and 8,829 types of new medical consumables)between January and June 2023 were managed by adopting the SPD supply chain mode.The inventory amount,inventory quantity,loss rate,and return or change rate of medical consumables of the two management modes were compared.A self-designed satisfaction questionnaire was used to evaluate the satisfaction of medical staffs,who used these medical consumables,for the two kinds of management modes.Results:The inventory amount of low-value medical consumables that were managed by the SPD supply chain mode was(1,424.09±75.68)million CNY,which was lower than(2,290.79±215.93)million CNY of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with a statistically significant difference(t=8.85,P<0.05).The inventory amount of high-value medical consumables that were managed by the SPD supply chain mode was 0,which was lower than(7,692.32±360.53)million CNY of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with a statistically significant difference(Z=-2.201,P<0.05).The inventory quantities of both low-value and high-value medical consumables of adopting SPD supply chain mode were significantly lower than those of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with statistically significant differences(t=10.443,11.225,P<0.05).The average loss rates of both low-value and high-value medical consumables of adopting SPD supply chain mode were significantly lower than those of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with statistically significant differences(Z=-2.207,-2.201,P<0.05).The average return or change rates of both low-value and high-value medical consumables of adopting SPD supply chain mode were significantly lower than those of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with statistically significant differences(t=14.685,8.716,P<0.01).The satisfaction scores of medical staffs from different departments for medical consumables of adopting the SPD supply chain mode were higher than those of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with a statistically significant difference(t=7.674,P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of the SPD supply chain mode for medical consumables in hospital can reduce the inventory amount,inventory quantity,loss rate,and return or change rate of medical consumables,and improve the satisfaction of medical staffs.

ObjectiveTo investigate how Xiaoyao Shukun decoction （XYSKD） regulates the formation and release of neutrophil extracellular traps （NETs） via the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway， thereby reducing inflammation， inhibiting the excessive proliferation of fibroblasts in pelvic adhesion tissue， decreasing adhesion and fibrosis， and repairing the tissue damage in sequelae of pelvic inflammatory disease （SPID）. MethodsA total of 84 Wistar rats were randomly allocated into seven groups： blank， model， XYSKD （8 mg·kg^-1）， mTOR agonist （10 mg·kg^-1）， mTOR agonist + XYSKD （10 mg·kg^-1+8 mg·kg^-1）， mTOR inhibitor （2 mg·kg^-1）， and mTOR inhibitor + XYSKD （2 mg·kg^-1+8 mg·kg^-1）. The rat model of SPID was constructed by starvation， fatigue， and ascending Escherichia coli infection. After 14 days of drug intervention， the ultrastructure of fibroblasts in the pelvic adhesion tissue was observed by transmission electron microscopy. The general morphology of the uterus， fallopian tube， and ovary was observed by laparotomy. The levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-17 （IL-17）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in the peritoneal flushing fluid were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The expression of myeloperoxidase （MPO） and citrullinated histone 3 （H3） in the fallopian tube was detected by immunofluorescence. Western blot and Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） were employed to determine the relative protein and mRNA levels， respectively， of neutrophil elastase （NE）， intercellular adhesion molecule-1 （CD54）， α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA）， H3， PI3K， and Akt. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group presented a large number of collagen fibers in bundles， numerous cytoplasmic folds of fibroblasts， reduced or absent mitochondrial cristae， and disordered and expanded endoplasmic reticulum. By laparotomy， extensive pelvic congestion， connective tissue hyperplasia， thickening and hardening of the tubal end near the uterus， and tubal and ovarian adhesion or cyst were observed in the model group. In addition， the model group showed raised levels of IL-1β， IL-17， and TNF-α in the peritoneal flushing fluid （P<0.01）， increased average fluorescence intensities of MPO and H3 （P<0.01）， and up-regulated protein and mRNA levels of NE， H3， CD54， PI3K， and Akt （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the mTOR agonist group showed increased fibroblasts and cytoplasmic folds， absence of mitochondrial cristae， endoplasmic reticulum dilation， and evident collagen fiber hyperplasia. Pelvic adhesions were observed to cause aggravated damage to the uterine， fallopian tube， and ovarian tissues. The levels of IL-1β， IL-17， and TNF-α in the peritoneal lavage fluid elevated （P<0.01） and the average fluorescence intensities of MPO and H3 enhanced （P<0.01） in the mTOR agonist group. In contrast， the XYSKD group and the mTOR inhibitor group showcased decreased fibroblasts and collagen fibers， alleviated mitochondrial crista loss and endoplasmic reticulum dilation， improved morphology and appearance of the uterine， fallopian tube， and ovarian tissues， lowered levels of IL-1β， IL-17， and TNF-α in the peritoneal lavage fluid （P<0.01）， decreased average fluorescence intensities of MPO and H3 （P<0.01）， and down-regulated protein and mRNA levels of NE， H3， CD54， PI3K， and Akt （P<0.05）. Compared with the mTOR agonist group， the mTOR agonist + XYSKD group showed alleviated pathological changes in the pelvic tissue， declined levels of IL-1β， IL-17， and TNF-α （P<0.01）， decreased average fluorescence intensities of MPO and H3 （P<0.01）， and down-regulated protein levels of NE， H3， CD54， α-SMA， p-PI3K/PI3K， and p-Akt/Akt （P<0.01） and mRNA levels of NE， H3， CD54， α-SMA， PI3K， and Akt （P<0.01）. Compared with the mTOR inhibitor group， the mTOR inhibitor + XYSKD group demonstrated reduced pathological severity of the pelvic tissue， reduced levels of IL-1β， IL-17， and TNF-α （P<0.01）， decreased average fluorescence intensities of MPO and H3 （P<0.01）， and down-regulated protein and mRNA levels of NE and CD54 （P<0.05）. ConclusionXYSKD can inhibit the excessive formation and release of NETs via PI3K/Akt/mTOR to ameliorate the inflammatory environment and reduce fibrosis and adhesion of the pelvic tissue， thereby playing a role in the treatment of SPID. It may exert the effects by lowering the levels of IL-1β， IL-17， and TNF-α and down-regulating the expression of NE， H3， CD54， α-SMA， PI3K， and Akt in the pelvic adhesion tissue.

To understand the progress of, summarize the lessons learned from and analyze the challenges in the national schistosomiasis elimination program of China in 2024, this article presented the endemic situation of schistosomiasis and national schistosomiasis surveillance results in the People’s Republic of China in 2024. By the end of 2024, Shanghai Municipality, Zhejiang Province, Fujian Province, Guangdong Province and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region continued to consolidate schistosomiasis elimination achievements, and 7 provinces of Jiangsu, Sichuan, Yunnan, Hubei, Hunan, Anhui and Jiangxi maintained the criteria of schistosomiasis transmission interruption. A total of 450 counties (cites, districts) were found to be endemic for schistosomiasis in China in 2024, including 26 061 endemic villages covering 73 630 500 residents at risk of infections. Among the 450 counties (cities, districts) endemic for schistosomiasis, 388 (86.22%) achieved the criteria of schistosomiasis elimination and 62 (13.78%) achieved the criteria of transmission interruption. In 2024, a total of 4 102 624 individuals received immunological tests for schistosomiasis in China, with 44 823 sero-positives identified (1.09% seroprevalence), and a total of 169 722 individuals received parasitological examinations, with 1 egg-positives detected. A total of 27 321 cases with advanced schistosomiasis were documented in China by the end of 2024. In 2024, a total of 575 686 bovines were raised in schistosomiasis-endemic villages of China, and 113 842 bovines received immunological tests, with 235 sero-positives detected (0.21% seroprevalence), while no egg-positives were identified among the 167 475 bovines receiving parasitological examinations. In 2024, snail survey was performed covering an area of 680 498.27 hm² in China, and 190 778.66 hm² snail habitats were identified, including 59.09 hm² emerging snail habitats and 704.23 hm² reemerging snail habitats. In 2024, a total of 19 665 schistosomiasis patients receiving chemotherapy with praziquantel in China, and expanded chemotherapy was given to humans at 571 722 person-times and to bovines at 306 740 herd-times. In addition, snail control with chemical treatment covered 117 111.37 hm² snail habitats across China in 2024, and the actual area of chemical treatment was 66 562.95 hm², while environmental improvements were performed in snail habitats covering an area of 1 374.26 hm². The national schistosomiasis surveillance results showed that the mean prevalence rates of Schistosoma japonicum infections were both 0 among humans and bovines in China in 2024, and no S. japonicum infection was detected in snails. These data demonstrated that the prevalence of schistosomiasis remained at a low level in China in 2024; however, the areas of snail habitats remained high and the number of fenced cattle showed a slight increase. To address these risks, it is imperative to maintain the integrated strategy with an emphasis on management of the source of S. japonicum infection and intensified snail control in high-risk areas, and to reinforce schistosomiasis surveillance and forecast and snail control in high-risk areas.

Recurrent spontaneous abortion （RSA） is a common gynecological disease during pregnancy， clinically characterized by repeated spontaneous abortions， yet its pathological mechanism remains incompletely understood. Traditional Chinese medicine attributes the pathogenesis of RSA to the deficiency of Chong Ren and the lack of fetal solidity. It has amassed experience in treating RSA， with Shoutaiwan being widely utilized for addressing miscarriage symptoms such as habitual abortion due to kidney deficiency， bleeding during pregnancy， and fetal movement. In recent years， there has been a gradual increase in experimental studies on the application of Shoutaiwan in treating RSA and on related experiments. These studies have demonstrated that Shoutaiwan preserves the fetus mainly by modulating hormone balance， alleviating immune inflammation， and enhancing blood coagulation equilibrium during pregnancy. Besides， through the modulation of key signaling pathways such as nuclear factor， erythroid 2 like 2 （Nrf2）/heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1） and Janus kinase 1 （JAK1）/signal transducer and activator of transcription （STAT）， as well as mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， Shoutaiwan has improved cellular antioxidant capacity， adjusted the phenotype of trophoblast and metaphase cells， and inhibited immune rejection， thus improving the pregnancy success rate. These findings not only elucidate the diverse biological foundations underlying Shoutaiwan's efficacy in treating RSA but also offer a scientific rationale for its clinical application and further mechanism research. Nonetheless， there remains a dearth of systematic reviews on RSA treatment with Shoutaiwan. Therefore， this review summarizes and synthesizes existing research findings to systematically analyze existing literature and studies， delving deeply into the principal pharmacological effects and associated signaling pathways of Shoutaiwan in regulating RSA. It aims to establish crucial reference points for its clinical application in RSA treatment and future experiments and research.

Objective:To explore the prognostic value of assessing plasma thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT) and D-dimer (D-D) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods:This prospective cohort study enrolled 538 AIS patients admitted to the General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from July 2021 to May 2024, including 306 males and 232 females, with an average age of (69.5±11.5) years. Among them, there were 147 cases of lacunar infarction, 166 cases of large artery atherosclerosis type, 122 cases of cardioembolic type, and 103 cases of cancer-related type. Follow-up observations were conducted on enrolled patients, data within 30 days after the initiation of acute phase treatment for one week were collected, thrombus-related cerebral ischemic events recurrence served as the endpoint event, starting from August 5, 2021, to June 19, 2024. During the follow-up period, 68 patients experienced endpoint events, including 14 cases of large artery atherosclerosis type, 23 cases of cardioembolic type, and 31 cases of cancer-related type. The plasma levels of TAT and D-D were determined by chemiluminescence method and enzyme-linked immunofluorescence assay respectively. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the prediction performance of TAT and D-dimer for recurrent ischemic events in AIS patients during the 30-day follow-up period, and the Kaplan-Meier curve was used for survival analysis.Results:Statistically differences were observed in the plasma TAT and D-D levels among patients with different types of AIS ( P<0.05), with cancer-related type had higher levels than cardioembolic type ( P<0.05), and cardioembolic type had higher levels than large artery atherosclerosis type ( P<0.05). In the non-recurrent ischemic event group, the plasma TAT and D-D levels of patients with large artery atherosclerosis type, cardioembolic type and cancer-related type were lower in post-treatment than pre-treatment ( P<0.05). In the recurrent ischemic event group, the plasma D-D levels were higher in post-treatment than pre-treatment in the patients with large artery atherosclerosis type ( P<0.05); there was no statistically difference between the post-treatment and pre-treatment in plasma TAT and D-D levels in patients with cardioembolic type ( P>0.05); in patients with cancer-related type, the TAT and D-D levels were lower in post-treatment than pre-treatment ( P<0.05), but higher than those in the non-recurrence group ( P<0.05). The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve for predicting the risk of ischemic event recurrence within 30 days in AIS patients by plasma TAT combined with D-D on day 7 after treatment was all >0.9 (0.950 for large artery atherosclerosis type, 0.965 for cardioembolic type, and 0.907 for cancer-related types). Survival analysis indicated that various patients with both indicators above the critical value had an increased cumulative risk probability of adverse events (log-rank χ 2=93.667, 109.266, and 58.433, respectively, with all P<0.001). Conclusion:The changes of plasma TAT and D-D levels in AIS patients are associated with stroke type and coagulation activation, and dynamic monitoring of these two indicators could help evaluate the treatment effect and predict the risk of recurrent ischemic events.

Objective This study aimed to explore the clinical and etiological characteristics of bloodstream infections in diabetic patients with different levels of glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c)for improving empirical diagnosis and treatment in clinical practice.Methods A retrospective study was conducted for diabetic patients with bloodstream infections who were admitted to Sichuan Mental Health Center from 2017 to 2023.Patients were assigned to one of the three groups based on HbA1c levels:low level(HbA1c＜7.0％),medium level(7.0％≤HbA1c＜9.0％),high level(HbA1c≥9.0％).The clinical data,pathogen distribution,and antimicrobial resistance were analyzed and compared between groups.Results A total of 426 diabetic patients with bloodstream infection were included.The proportion of community-acquired bloodstream infection,acidosis,and liver abscess in the high level HbA1c group were significantly higher than those in the medium and low level HbA1c groups.Overall,452 strains of nonduplicate pathogenic bacteria were isolated,the most common of which were Escherichia coli(47.1％),Klebsiella pneumoniae(23.0％),and Staphylococcus aureus(5.8％).The pathogens of bloodstream infections varied with different HbA1c levels.The proportion of K.pneumoniae in the high-level HbA1c group(30.7％)was significantly higher than that in the low-level HbA1c group(15.1％)and medium level HbA1c group(16.0％).More than 50％of E.coli isolates were resistant to piperacillin,cefazolin,and ampicillin,while lower than 10％of the isolates were resistant to cefoxitin and minocycline,and lower than 1％of the isolates were resistant to piperacillin-tazobactam,meropenem,imipenem,and amikacin.The E.coli strains isolated from hospital-acquired infections showed slightly higher resistance rates to penicillin,cephalosporins,aminoglycosides,and fluoroquinolones than the strains isolated from community-acquired infections.K.pneumoniae strains showed low resistance rates(＜30％)to the commonly used antibiotics.However,the strains isolated from hospital-acquired infections were significantly more resistant to cephalosporins,carbapenems,and aminoglycosides than the strains isolated from community-acquired infections.Conclusions E.coli,K.pneumoniae and S.aureus were the common pathogens of bloodstream infections in diabetic patients.Poor HbA1c control was associated with K.pneumoniae bloodstream infection,especially those originated from liver abscess.The antibiotic-resistant E.coli and K.pneumoniae strains were prevalent in hospital-acquired bloodstream infections in diabetic patients.Antimicrobial resistance surveillance should be strengthened for this patient population.
