OBJECTIVE To establish the an optimal prediction model for carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter bau-mannii(CRAB)infection in ICU patients based on machine learning(ML)so as to help clinicians to diagnose and make decisions.METHODS The clinical data were collected from the patients who were hospitalized in ICUs of a three-A hospital from Jan.1,2017 to Dec.31,2024 and were randomly divided into the training set and the test set in a 7∶3 ratio.The characteristic variables were selected by means of LASSO regression analysis in combina-tion with multivariate logistic regression analysis.Five types of M L classification models were integrated,the opti-mal model was analyzed and identified.The performance of the prediction model for CRAB infection in the ICU patients was evaluated with the use of sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,areas under receiver operating characteris-tic curves(AUCs),calibration curves,Hosmer-Lemeshow test and decision curve analysis(DCA).The outputs of the ML models were interpreted by Shapley additive explanations(SHAP)and permutation importance.RESULTS A total of 2 904 patients were enrolled in the study,695(23.93％)of whom had CRAB infection.The AUC of XGBoost model was highest in the training set and the test set,respectively(0.994 and 0.907).The result of Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that the calibration curves of the XGBoost model indicated that the predicated risk was highly con-sistent with the observed risk(x2=7.323 and 4.609,P=0.513 and 0.764,respectively).The DCA curves showed that the XGBoost model performed best within the whole range of threshold,with the highest net profit.The length of ICU stay,use of tigecycline,central venous catheterization,use of carbapenems and use of ventilator were determined as the major predictive factors by means of SHAP.CONCLUSIONS The XGBoost model is established and interpreted by SHAP.It provides bases for screening of the ICU patients at high risk of CRAB infection.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, prognosis, and risk factors associated with disease progression within 24 months (POD24) after diagnosis in patients with splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) .Methods:Clinical data from 88 newly diagnosed SMZL patients treated at Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, between December 2009 and October 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were grouped based on the presence of POD24 for prognostic evaluation and comparison of clinical features.Results:There were 45 males (51.1% ) and 43 females (48.9% ), with a median age of 59 (24-82) years at the time of diagnosis. Ten (11.4% ) cases occurred POD24. The overall survival (OS) time and progression- free survival (PFS) time in the POD24 group were shorten than non-POD24 group [median OS time: 77 (11-159) months vs not reached, P<0.001; 15 (4-24) months vs 121 (24-154) months, P<0.001]. Univariate Cox analysis showed that Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score ≥ 2 [ HR=8.942 (95% CI 1.097-72.910), P=0.041], age-adjusted International Prognostic Index (aaIPI) score of high-risk [ HR=5.070 (95% CI 1.256-20.461), P=0.023], POD24 [ HR=14.049 (95% CI 3.339-59.107), P<0.001], occurrence of tissue transformation [ HR=7.819 (95% CI 1.952-31.316), P=0.004], and disease unremission status after initial treatment [ HR=6.080 (95% CI 1.439-25.690), P=0.014] were the influencing factors for OS in SMZL patients. Multivariate analysis showed that POD24 [ HR=5.859 (95% CI 1.249–27.475), P=0.025] and occurrence of tissue transformation [ HR=5.520 (95% CI 1.050-29.009), P=0.044] were independent prognostic factors affecting OS. Univariate logistic analysis showed that ECOG ≥ 2 [ HR=7.556 (95% CI 1.498-38.110), P=0.014], high risk of aaIPI score [ HR=5.500 (95% CI 1.378- 21.945), P=0.016], occurrence of tissue transformation [ HR=8.000 (95% CI 1.759-36.383), P=0.007], and disease unremission status after initial treatment [ HR=9.136 (95% CI 2.216-37.675), P=0.002] were the influencing factors of POD24. Multifactorial analysis showed that disease unremission after initial treatment [ HR=8.253 (95% CI 1.681- 40.518), P=0.009] was an independent risk factor affecting POD24. Conclusions:POD24 and tissue transformation are independent poor prognostic factors for OS in SMZL patients. Patients with POD24 are at a higher risk of developing tissue transformation. The failure to alleviate the disease after initial treatment is an independent risk factor affecting POD24 patients.

Objective To investigate the possible association between cross-domain associative memory(AM)impairment and hippocampal subfield volumes in patients with schizophrenia(SCZ).Methods We enrolled 28 SCZ patients from Shanghai Mental Health Center,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine,and 28 healthy controls(HCs)between 2019 and 2021.Based on an innovative AM paradigm and automated segmentation,3D-T1 weighted data of the objects were processed with PhiPipe and FreeSurfer.Differences in subfield volums between the two groups were analyzed using ANCOVA,while their relationship with AM scores was assessed using Pearson correlation.Results SCZ patients exhibited significantly poorer AM performance across three conditions compared with HCs.Marginally significant reductions were observed in the total volume of bilateral hippocampus,encompassing both the hippocampal head and body.Significant volume reductions were identified in the bilateral presubiculum and parasubiculum.The volumes of bilateral presubiculum head(r=0.273,P=0.042),parasubiculum(r=0.397,P=0.002),and CA1 head(r=0.382,P=0.004)exhibited positive correlations with cross-domain AM performance.Conclusion The bilateral presubiculum and parasubiculum,as hippocampal subregions significantly associated with cross-modal AM deficits in SCZ,may play a crucial role in the pathology of AM.

Objective:To explore the correlation between serum soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (sTREM2) and cognitive impairment in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD), and the role of deep medullary vein (DMV) score in this process.Methods:A total of 140 patients with CSVD admitted to the Department of Neurology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan Medical University from December 2022 to August 2024 were selected as the research objects. The basic data statistics, head magnetic resonance imaging examination, cognitive function assessment, serum sTREM2 detection and DMV score were performed. All data were analyzed by SPSS 29.0 software and GraphPad Prism 10.0 software packages. Logistic regression model was used to explore the influencing factors of cognitive impairment. Structural equation model was used to analyze the mediating effect of DMV score on the association between serum sTREM2 and cognitive impairment. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of serum sTREM2 level and DMV score for cognitive impairment in CSVD patients.Results:Serum sTREM2 level ( B=0.017, OR=1.017, 95% CI=1.003-1.031), DMV score ( B=0.375, OR=1.455, 95% CI=1.175-1.802) and years of education ( B=-0.248, OR=0.780, 95% CI=0.635-0.958) were risk factors for cognitive impairment (all P<0.05). sTREM2 not only directly affected cognitive function, but also indirectly affected cognitive function through DMV score. The direct effect (effect size=-0.022) and mediating effect (effect size=-0.007) accounted for 75.9% and 24.1% of the total effect (effect size=-0.029), respectively. The areas under the ROC curve of serum sTREM2 level, DMV score, and their combination for predicting cognitive impairment in CSVD patients were 0.880, 0.891, and 0.910, respectively (all P<0.001). Conclusion:Serum sTREM2 not only directly affects the cognitive function of patients with cerebral small vessel disease, but also indirectly affects cognitive function through DMV score. The combination of serum sTREM2 levels and DMV score has high predictive value for the risk of CSVD-related cognitive impairment.

Objective:To evaluate the toxicity of foscarnet sodium injection into the anterior chamber and intravitreal cavity on the cornea and retina.Methods:Thirty-six adult New Zealand White rabbits were randomly divided into control group, intravitreal injection group, and intracameral injection group, with 12 rabbits in each group.In the control group, 0.1 ml of balanced salt solution (BSS) was injected into the vitreous cavity of one eye, and an equal volume of BSS was injected into the anterior chamber of the other eye.In the intracameral injection group and intravitreal injection group, 0.1 ml of sodium foscarnet 1.2 mg was injected into the anterior chamber and vitreous cavity of one eye, respectively.Slit-lamp microscopy, ophthalmoscope, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and in vivo confocal laser scanning microscopy were performed on 3 experimental rabbits from each group on days 1, 7, 14, and 28 after injection.After sacrifice, both eyeballs were removed, and the corneas and retinas were examined using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy to evaluate the toxicity to the cornea and retina comprehensively.The use and care of the animals complied with the ARVO Statement.The study protocol was approved by an Ethics Committee of Peking University Third Hospital (No.IRB00006761-2015197). Results:Slit-lamp microscopy and OCT showed no corneal edema, intraocular inflammation, or other abnormalities in the intravitreal injection and control groups.Mild corneal edema was observed in intracameral injection group 1 day after injection, which resolved 7 days after injection. In vivo confocal laser scanning microscopy revealed normal hexagonal corneal endothelial cell morphology in the intravitreal injection and control groups.There was no significant difference in endothelial cell density at baseline and 1, 7, and 14 days after injection among the three groups ( Fgroup=1.21, P=0.32; Ftime=1.21, P=0.32).Light microscopy revealed no obvious corneal abnormalities.On days 1 and 7 after injection, retinal nerve fiber layer vacuolization and inflammatory cell infiltration were observed in the intravitreal injection and control groups.In the intravitreal injection of BSS group, inflammatory cell infiltration occurred in the retina without vacuolization 1 day after injection.There were no structural changes in the photoreceptor layer, and the nuclear layer was well-organized.Scanning electron microscopy showed no significant abnormalities in the corneal endothelium in the intravitreal injection group 1 day after injection.In the intracameral injection group, a large number of inflammatory cells were deposited and adhered to the corneal endothelium 1 day after injection and disappeared 7 days after injection.Transmission electron microscopy revealed that in the intravitreal injection group, 1 day after injection swelling of corneal endothelial cells, dilatation of the endoplasmic reticulum, and partial mitochondrial swelling were observed, which normalized 14 days after injection and vacuolization was present in the retina and interstitial fluid accumulation persisted until the 28 days after injection.In the intracameral injection group, swollen mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum of corneal endothelial cells was observed and resolved by 14 days after injection.However, structural abnormalities in the membranous discs of the photoreceptor outer segments and interstitial fluid accumulation in the optic nerve fiber layer persisted 1 day after injection and did not fully recover 28 days after injection. Conclusions:Intracameral intravitreal and injection of foscarnet sodium have transient toxic effects on the retina, which gradually weaken over time.Intracameral injection of foscarnet sodium was more toxic to corneal endothelial cells than intravitreal injection.

Objective To analyze the clinical and immunological characteristics of a rare case of CHARGE syndrome,we summarize the genotype and phenotype in the Chinese patient population,and explore the underlying immunopathogenic mechanisms.Methods Clinical data from a pediatric patient with CHARGE syndrome were collected and analyzed.A comprehensive analysis of the Chinese patient population was conducted.Gene analysis and immunological characterization were performed using flow cytometry,deep sequencing,and quantitative PCR.Results The proband was a premature female infant whose primary clinical manifestations included congenital heart disease,recurrent respiratory infections,respiratory failure,airway dysplasia,hearing impairment,and bilateral choroidal coloboma.Whole-exome sequencing revealed a de novo heterozygous nonsense mutation in the CHD7 gene,c.5122C＞T(p.Gln1708Ter),classified as pathogenic according to ACMG criteria.Immunological studies indicated impaired thymic output of T cells,significant alterations in the number and proportion of CD8+T cell subsets,increased apoptosis,and defective activation and production of key effector cytokines such as IFN-γ by CD8+T cells.However,no significant abnormalities were observed in peripheral lymphocyte proliferation.Conclusion CHARGE syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder primarily caused by mutations in the CHD7 gene.The main clinical features include ocular defects,cardiac disease,choanal atresia/cleft lip and palate,growth retardation,gonadal hypoplasia,and ear anomalies.This case study suggests that CHARGE syndrome is associated with abnormalities in the development,apoptosis,and effector functions of immune cells.

Objective To summarize the changing prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacterales based on the data of CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 2015 to 2021 for improving antimicrobial treatment in clinical practice.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using a commercial automated susceptibility testing system according to the unified CHINET protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints of the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)M100 31st ed in 2021.Results Over the seven-year period(2015-2021),the overall prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE)was 9.43％(62 342/661 235).The prevalence of CRE strains in Klebsiella pneumoniae,Citrobacter freundii,and Enterobacter cloacae was 22.38％,9.73％,and 8.47％,respectively.The prevalence of CRE strains in Escherichia coli was 1.99％.A few CRE strains were also identified in Salmonella and Shigella.The CRE strains were mainly isolated from respiratory specimens(44.23±2.80)％,followed by blood(20.88±3.40)％and urine(18.40±3.45)％.Intensive care units(ICUs)were the major source of the CRE strains(27.43±5.20)％.CRE strains were resistant to all the β-lactam antibiotics tested and most non-β-lactam antimicrobial agents.The CRE strains were relatively susceptible to tigecycline and polymyxins with low resistance rates.Conclusions The prevalence of CRE strains was increasing from 2015 to 2021.CRE strains were highly resistant to most of the antibacterial drugs used in clinical practice.Clinicians should prescribe antimicrobial agents rationally.Hospitals should strengthen antibiotic stewardship in key clinical settings such as ICUs,and take effective infection control measures to curb CRE outbreak and epidemic in hospitals.

Objective To characterize the changing species distribution and antibiotic resistance profiles of respiratory isolates in hospitals participating in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 2015 to 2021.Methods Commercial automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems and disk diffusion method were used to test the susceptibility of respiratory bacterial isolates to antimicrobial agents following the standardized technical protocol established by the CHINET program.Results A total of 589 746 respiratory isolates were collected from 2015 to 2021.Overall,82.6％of the isolates were Gram-negative bacteria and 17.4％were Gram-positive bacteria.The bacterial isolates from outpatients and inpatients accounted for(6.0±0.9)％and(94.0±0.1)％,respectively.The top microorganisms were Klebsiella spp.,Acinetobacter spp.,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Staphylococcus aureus,Haemophilus spp.,Stenotrophomonas maltophilia,Escherichia coli,and Streptococcus pneumoniae.Each microorganism was isolated from significantly more males than from females(P＜0.05).The overall prevalence of methicillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA)was 39.9％.The prevalence of penicillin-resistant S.pneumoniae was 1.4％.The prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase(ESBL)-producing E.coli and K.pneumoniae was 67.8％and 41.3％,respectively.The overall prevalence of carbapenem-resistant E.coli,K.pneumoniae,Enterobacter cloacae,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and Acinetobacter baumannii was 3.7％,20.8％,9.4％,29.8％,and 73.3％,respectively.The prevalence of β-lactamase was 96.1％in Moraxella catarrhalis and 60.0％in Haemophilus influenzae.The H.influenzae isolates from children(＜18 years)showed significantly higher resistance rates to β-lactam antibiotics than the isolates from adults(P＜0.05).Conclusions Gram-negative bacteria are still predominant in respiratory isolates associated with serious antibiotic resistance.Antimicrobial resistance surveillance should be strengthened in clinical practice to support accurate etiological diagnosis and appropriate antimicrobial therapy based on antimicrobial susceptibility testing results.

Objective To explore the correlation between serum hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)levels and cerebral microbleeds(CMBs)and cognitive impairment and to assess the predictive value of HIF-1α for CSVD-related cognitive impairment.Methods A total of 104 patients with CSVD who attended the Department of Neurology,First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from June 2022 to November 2023 were enrolled.All enrolled patients were subjected to basic statistics,cranial nuclear magnetic resonance examination,cognitive function assessment,and serum HIF-1α test,and the number and location of CMBs were counted.Based on the above data the enrolled patients were grouped.The correlation between HIF-1α and cognitive function and CMBs was studied the influencing factors of CMBs and cognitive impairment were analyzed,and the predictive value of HIF-1α on the occurrence of cognitive impairment was evaluated.Results There were statistically significant differences in HIF-1α levels and cognitive function among different CMBs groups.Serum HIF-1α levels were significantly negatively correlated with overall cognitive function,visuospatial and executive function,attention,and delayed recall,and serum HIF-1α was positively correlated with the number of CMBs.HIF-1α may be a risk factor for CMBs and cognitive impairment associated with CSVD,and serum HIF-1α has potential in predict the cognitive impairment caused by CSVD.Conclusion Serum levels of HIF-1α were associated with the number of CMB and CSVD-related cognitive impairment,and serum levels of HIF-1α may have a predictive value for CSVD-related cognitive impairment.
