Objective:To construct a multimodal induction educational system suitable for standardized pediatric residency training bases, and to evaluate its effectiveness, thereby obtaining suggestions for further improvement.Methods:Twelve residents newly enrolled in the 2023 standardized residency training program who commenced their first-year training were included as study subjects. The induction educational system comprised multiple modules: department introduction, training plan and assessment requirements, departmental workflow, routine diagnosis and treatment of major diseases, specialized skills/procedures, and lifestyle guidance. Training materials and methods were tailored to the characteristics of each training module. Checklists were used for supervision and review, and a competency checklist was designed to evaluate residents' mastery of the training at two weeks of induction, which would guarantee the effectiveness of the training. A questionnaire survey, powered by wjx.cn, was used to obtain the experience and suggestions from the residents and ward instructors on induction education, and content ranking analysis was performed on the survey results.Results:The survey revealed that, before starting a new rotation, residents' top three educational needs were departmental workflow, routine diagnosis and treatment of common diseases, and specialized skills/procedures. Residents preferred face-to-face lectures and demonstrations by attending physicians or senior residents; instructors suggested improving relevant materials (such as resident physician manuals and video materials) and face-to-face lectures. The residents considered the current induction educational system to be greatly beneficial in basic theories, treatment principles, basic skills, and auxiliary examination processes.Conclusions:Through the above research, a multimodal induction educational system suitable for the standardized pediatric residency training base in the Peking University First Hospital has been preliminarily established, and suggestions for further improvement have been obtained, which is conducive to further improving the system and residents' post competency.

Objective To explore the real experiences of nutrition impact symptoms in esophageal cancer patients during diagnosis and treatment,and to provide references for developing nutritional management strategies.Methods Using purposive sampling,15 esophageal cancer patients admitted to the thoracic surgery department of a tertiary grade A hospital in Guangzhou from October to December 2024 were selected for semi-structured interviews.Thematic analysis was used for data analysis.Results 4 themes and 12 sub-themes were identified:①Multiple symptom perceptions:esophageal obstruction-dysphagia,appetite-affecting symptoms,multiple symptom over-lap,and individual differences in symptom perception.② Insufficient symptom cognition:overestimation of symptom controllability and biased symptom attribution.③ Negative emotional reactions:anxiety and fear about eating,frustration with declining eating function,and helplessness and guilt about losing control over eating.④ Di-verse symptom coping strategies:avoidance coping,adaptive coping,and active nutritional management.Conclusion The nutrition impact symptom experiences of esophageal cancer patients are complex and diverse.Healthcare professionals should promptly identify and assess nutrition impact symptoms,provide nutrition health education,strengthen psychological guidance,and develop culturally distinctive individualized nutritional management strategies.

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.

Aim To systematically investigate the ac-tive components,targets,and regulatory pathways of Po-lygonum capitatum in intervening atherosclerosis(AS)through network pharmacology,molecular docking and animal experiments.Methods Active components of Polygonum capitatum and AS-related targets were screened and identified through database searches.Protein-protein interaction(PPI)network analysis was performed using the STRING database,followed by GO and KEGG enrichment analyses via the David plat-form.Molecular docking validation was conducted with AutoDock.An AS model was established in Syrian golden hamsters fed a high-fat diet.Predicted pathways and targets were validated using qPCR,ELISA,and histopathological assessment of aortic and hepatic tis-sues via HE staining.Results Network pharmacology identified 27 potential active components of Polygonum capitatum(primarily flavonoids such as quercetin and luteolin)and 110 drug-disease intersection targets,in-cluding core targets MMP-9,ALB,and AKT1.GO and KEGG analyses enriched 593 and 125 pathways,re-spectively,with the NF-κB inflammatory pathway,TNF signaling pathway and lipid metabolism/atherosclerosis pathways highlighted as key mechanisms.Animal ex-periments demonstrated that Polygonum capitatum im-proved serum lipid profiles(reduced TC,TG,LDL-C)in AS hamsters,suppressed the MMP-9/NF-κB signa-ling pathway(downregulated MMP-9,p65 phosphoryla-tion,TNF-α,and IL-6),and inhibited VSMC synthetic phenotypic transformation(upregulated α-SMA and myocardin)by downregulating MCPIP1.Additionally,Polygonum capitatum ameliorated aortic lesions and he-patic lipid deposition in AS hamsters.Conclusions Polygonum capitatum alleviates AS by synergistically regulating the MMP-9/NF-κB/MCPIP1 axis through flavonoid components,suppressing vascular inflammato-ry cascades and maintaining VSMC contractile pheno-types.This reflects Polygonum capitatum's multi-com-ponent,multi-pathway,and multi-target characteristics in combating AS.

Aim To investigate the effect of Senecio scandens Buch.-Ham on inflammatory pain mediated by mast cell P2X7 receptor.Methods Using the ATP-induced foot inflammatory pain,immunofluores-cence and toluidine blue staining techniques were used to investigate whether Senecio scandens has inhibitory effect on P2X7 receptor on mast cells.Using the calci-um ion imaging experimental technology,to explore whether Senecio scandens inhibit the intracellular cal-cium ion enrichment caused by activation of P2X7 re-ceptor on mouse peritoneal mast cell.The whole-cell patch clamp technique was used to investigate whether senecio scandens could inhibit the inward current in-duced by activation of P2X7 receptor on mouse perito-neal mast cell.Results In vivo,Senecio scandens alle-viate ATP induced inflammatory pain(3.9 g·kg-1:P＜0.05),and significantly inhibited the infiltration of P2X7 receptor-positive mast cells(3.9 g·kg-1:P＜0.05).Knockout of mast cell can reduce the analgesic effect of Senecio scandens(3.9 g·kg-1:P=0.645).In vitro.The experiment results show that senecio scandens can significantly inhibit the calcium influx(300 mg·L-1:P＜0.05;1 g·L-1:P＜0.01;3 g·L-1:P＜0.01)and the inward current mediated by P2X7 receptor in mast cell(1 g·L-1:P＜0.01).Conclusion Senecio scandens alleviate inflammatory pain by inhibiting mast cell P2X7 receptor.

Objective:To observe the clinical value of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR),platelet to lymphocyte ratio(PLR),C-reactive protein(CRP)to albumin(ALB)ratio(CAR)dynamic monitoring in the acute phase of Kawasaki disease(KD).Methods:This study was a single-center prospective study,146 in the acute phase of KD patients who were admitted to The Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University from June 2022 to September 2024 were selected as the study subjects(KD group).Hospitalized patients with fever ≥ 3 days received during the same period(fever control group,n=146)and healthy children underwent physical examination(healthy control group,n=146)were seleted.According to the differences in response to intravenous immunoglobulin treatment,KD patients were divided into two subgroups:immunoglobulin insensitive group(n=21)and immunoglobulin sensitive group(n=125).According to the presence or absence of coronary artery injury(CAL),KD patients were divided into two subgroups:non CAL group(n=97)and CAL group(n=49).According to alanine aminotransferase(ALT)expression level,KD patients were divided into two subgroups:non liver injury group(ALT value＜80 U/L,n=110)and liver injury group(ALT value ≥ 80 U/L,n=36).NLR,PLR,and CAR of KD group,fever control group,and healthy control group were compared.NLR,PLR,and CAR were compared at admission,before and 3 d after immunoglobulin infusion between the immunoglobulin sensitive group and immunoglobulin insensitive group,liver injury group and non liver injury group,CAL group and non CAL group.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate diagnostic efficacy.Result:NLR,PLR,and CAR of the KD group and fever control group were higher than those of the healthy control group,and the KD group were higher than those of the fever control group(P＜0.05).NLR,PLR,and CAR of the immunoglobulin insensitive group were higher than those of the immunoglobulin sensitive group at admission,before and 3 d after immunoglobulin infusion(P＜0.05).NLR,PLR,and CAR of the liver injury group were higher than those of non liver injury group at admission,before and 3 d after immunoglobulin infusion(P＜0.05).NLR,PLR,and CAR of the CAL group were higher than those of the non CAL group at admission,before and 3 days after immunoglobulin infusion(P＜0.05).When NLR,PLR,and CAR were used alone or in combination at admission,the area under curve(AUC)(95％CI)of ROC values were 0.798(0.715～0.869),0.802(0.717～0.871),0.833(0.752～0.896),and 0.935(0.873～0.973),respectively,among them,the combination had the highest diagnostic efficacy.Conclusion:NLR,PLR,and CAR are all abnormally elevated in KD patients,and which are associated with patient immunoglobulin sensitivity,liver injury and CAL.The combination detection of the above three indicators has better diagnostic efficacy for KD.

Objective:To explore the factors that tend to lead to a low normal fertilization rate in spindle transfer of mouse oocytes and its strategies.Methods:Oocytes in metaphase Ⅱ (MⅡ) of C57BL/6 and ICR strains mouse were obtained for observations of mitochondrial replacement operations. Spindle karyoplasts of three different sizes (large, medium, small) were isolated by micromanipulation, and their morphology was observed under bright field and polarized light at 0 min, 10 min, 20 min and 30 min after suction. For small spindle karyoplasts, 2% paraformaldehyde fixation was performed after 10 min, 20 min and 30 min respectively, and the morphology of spindle and chromosomes was observed after immunofluorescence staining. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) was performed on oocytes, followed by small spindle karyoplasts isolation, and then fusion was conducted after 30 min (traditional method), 10 min (modified method 1) and 0 min (modified method 2) respectively. ICSI-oocytes without spindle transfer were used as control group, and 14-16 h later, the fertilization of reconstructed oocytes was observed and statistically analyzed.Results:1) When spindle karyoplast was just retrieved (0 min), the karyoplast membrane was smooth and complete, and the spindle showed a normal spindle shape. After 10 min, 20 min and 30 min of suction, the karyoplast membrane was twisted or elongated with an irregular morphology, and the spindle was also twisted, stretched or scattered with a weaker brightness. And the smaller spindle karyoplast, the more serious the deformation was. 2) When the spindle was just taken out (0 min), immunofluorescence staining showed that the spindle was in a standard spindle shape, and the chromosomes were regularly and neatly arranged on the equatorial plate. With the prolongation of placement time, spindles were elongated and tapered or dumbbell-shaped, and chromosomes were scattered and irregularly arranged. 3) For the traditional method of spindle transfer, the normal fertilization rate of C57BL/6 mouse reconstructed oocytes was 63.16% (24/38), which was statistically different from that of control group ( P=0.002). The normal fertilization rate [68.00% (34/50)] in the modified method 1 group was significantly lower than that in control group [90.00% (36/40), P=0.019], but there was no statistical difference with the traditional method ( P=0.260). However, the normal fertilization rate [82.50% (33/40)] in the modified method 2 group was similar to control group ( P=0.422), and was significantly higher than that of the traditional method group ( P=0.010). Conclusion:The longer the spindle karyoplast of mouse oocytes is stayed after retrieval, the more serious the morphological changes, the more unstable the spindles and chromosomes, and the lower normal fertilization rate. Immediate fusion of spindle karyoplast after isolation is the best time for mitochondrial replacement micromanipulation.
