OBJECTIVE To explore the value of microbiological rapid on-site evaluation(M-ROSE)technique in treatment of the patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia(SCAP).METHODS A total of 124 patients with SCAP who were treated in the department of respiratory and critical care medicine of The Fourth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from Sep.2023 to Dec.2024 were enrolled in the study and were random-ly divided into the M-ROSE group and the control group in a 1∶1 ratio based on the status of M-ROSE for bron-choalveolar lavage fluid(BALF).The M-ROSE test and conventional etiological test[metagenomic next genera-tion sequencing(mNGS),smear,culture]were performed for the M-ROSE group,and the conventional etiologi-cal test was only carried out for the control group.The baseline data,symptoms and signs,C-reactive protein lev-el,treatment status and outcomes were observed and compared between the two groups of patients.RESULTS A-mong the 62 patients for whom the BALF specimens were detected with M-ROSE,45(72.58%)patients showed the consistent test result for fungi with mNGS,47(75.81%)patients showed the same test result for cocci with mNGS,and 30(48.39%)patients showed the same test result for bacilli with mNGS.The duration of the M-ROSE test was 1.50(1.50,2.00)h,shorter than that of the smear,culture and mNGS(P<0.05).The body temperature returning to the normal and the property,volume of sputum were improved more early in days in the M-ROSE group than in the control group after the anti-infection treatment(P<0.05);the level of inflammatory factor CRP declined more quickly in the M-ROSE group than in the control group(P<0.05);the effective rates of treatment of the M-ROSE group were higher than those of the control group after the hospitalization for 3,5 and 7 days(P<0.05).CONCLUSION The M-ROSE test for BALF may facilitate the rapid etiological diagnosis for the patients with SCAP in early stage,provide guidance for the anti-infection treatment strategies,and accelerate the improvement of symptoms and inflammatory factors;it has certain clinical application value.

Objective:To construct bacterial cytoplasmic membrane nanovesicles(BMV)with overexpressing programmed death 1(PD-1),denoted as BMV-PD-1 and evaluate the targeting efficacy of BMV-PD-1 towards transplanted lung tumor tissues in mice.Methods:The fusion plasmid ClyA-PD-1-EGFP fused by PD-1 and Cytolysin A(ClyA)was transferred into Escherichia coli BL21-Codonplus through plasmid transformation.Laser confocal microscopy,SDS-PAGE,and WB were used to detect the expression of the fusion protein ClyA-PD-1-EGFP.Bacterial membranes were extracted and processed with an extruder to generate BMV-PD-1.TEM and NTA were utilized to assess the morphology,size distribution,and zeta potential of BMV-PD-1,while WB was used to verify the presence of PD-1 protein.Laser confocal imaging was conducted to monitor the uptake of BMV-PD-1 by Lewis lung cancer cells.A C57BL/6J mouse subcutaneous transplant tumor model of LLC lung cancer cells was constructed,and the tumor targeting of BMV-PD-1 was evaluated by small animal imaging system.Results:Laser confocal microscopy images demonstrated that the plasmid ClyA-PD-1-EGFP was transferred into BL21-Codonplus and successfully expressed into protein.SDS-PAGE results suggested that ClyA-PD-1-EGFP was overexpressed in BL21-Codonplus.WB analysis indicated that PD-1 was expressed in bacteria and highly expressed in BMV-PD-1(P<0.001).NTA and TEM analyses revealed that BMV-PD-1 were spherical vesicles with a diameter of(145±14)nm and a negative surface charge.Laser confocal imaging showed that the high expression of PD-1 significantly increased the uptake of BMV-PD-1 by lung cancer cells(P<0.01).In vivo imaging of small animals further confirmed that the high expression of PD-1 can effectively improve cancer targeting of BMV-PD-1(P<0.01).Conclusion:In this study,bacterial plasma membrane nanovesicles BMV-PD-1 with high PD-1 expression are successfully constructed,and it is found that PD-1 overexpression markedly improve the mouse lung cancer xenograft tissue targeting specificity of BMV-PD-1,laying the groundwork for further development of BMV-PD-1 as a carrier for targeted drug delivery systems in tumors.

Objective To analyze the relationship between soluble α-Klotho(SKL)levels and continuous glucose monitoring(CGMS)-derived measures of glycemic management in diabetic kidney disease(DKD)patients.Methods A total of 140 T2DM patients admitted to the Department of General Medicine Affiliated Hospital of Yan'an University from May 2020 to May 2022 were selected and divided into two groups according to the levels of UACR:T2DM group(UACR<30 mg/g,n=60),DKD group(UACR≥30 mg/g,n=80)and 45 healthy persons(NC group)who received physical examination in the hospital during the same period were the NC group.Results The SKL level of DKD group was lower than that of T2DM group and NC group(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that SKL was positively correlated with eGRF and TIR(P<0.01),and negatively correlated with Scr,UACR,CysC,β2-MG,FPG,HbA1c,MG,TAR and GMI(P<0.01).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that HbA1c and GMI were the influencing factors of SKL.Conclusion The level of SKL in DKD patients is correlated with HbA1c and GMI.
