Pregnancy with chronic kidney disease (CKD), particularly in stages 4-5, carries high risks of adverse outcomes including maternal renal failure, preeclampsia/eclampsia, fetal growth restriction, and preterm birth. This report described a 26-year-old woman with congenital solitary kidney, polycystic ovaries, and uterine septum due to PAX2 gene variant, complicated by CKD stage 4. Through multidisciplinary team precision management and individualized treatment strategies, including timely initiation of dialysis, the patient successfully maintained pregnancy until 34 +1 weeks and delivered a female infant via cesarean section. This case summarizes key management experiences for end-stage renal disease in pregnancy, highlighting early risk assessment, precise nutritional management, hemodialysis protocol optimization, and the crucial role of multidisciplinary collaboration, providing valuable references for managing CKD-complicated pregnancies.

Objective:To report the nationwide surveillance results of pathogenic profiles and antimicrobial resistance patterns of Gram-positive bloodstream infections in China in 2023.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-posttive bacteria from blood cultures were collected in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）during January to December 2023. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the dilution method recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. Statistical analyses were conducted using WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software.Results:A total of 4 385 Gram-positive bacterial isolates were obtained from 60 participating center. The top five pathogens were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 544，35.2%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=1 441，32.9%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=574，13.1%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=385，8.8%），and α-hemolytic Streptococci（ n=187，4.3%）. The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）was 26.2%（405/1 544）and 69.8%（1 006/1 441），respectively. Notably，all Staphylococci remained susceptible to glycopeptide or daptomycin. Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated excellent susceptibility（>97.0%）to cephalobiol，rifampicin，trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline，tigecycline，and eravacycline. No Enterococcus exhibiting resistance to linezolid were detected. Glycopeptide resistance was uncommon but more frequent in Enterococcus faecium（resistance to vancomycin and teicoplanin：both 1.7%）compared to Enterococcus faecalis（both 0.3%）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS exhibited significant regional variations across the country（ χ2=17.674 and 148.650，respectively，both P<0.001）. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci were detected in central China. Institutional comparison demonstrated higher prevalence of MRSA（ χ2=14.111， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.828， P=0.028）in provincial hospitals than that in municipal hospitals. Socioeconomic analysis identified elevated detection rates of both MRSA（ χ2=18.986， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.477， P=0.034）in less developed regions（per capita GDP

Objective:To report the results of bacterial resistant investigation collaborative system（BRICS）on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2023，and provide reference for clinical tretment of bloodstream infections and prevention and control of bacterial resistance.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of BRICS were collected during January 2023 to December 2023. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，11 492 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 60 hospitals，of which 10 098（87.9%）were Enterobacterales and 1 394（12.1%）were non-fermentative bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（50.0%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（26.1%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（5.1%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（5.0%）and Enterobacter cloacae complex（4.1%）. The ESBL-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirablilis were 46.8%（2 685/5 741），18.3%（549/2 999）and 44.0%（77/175），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（76/5 741）and 15.0%（450/2 999）；32.9%（25/76）and 78.0%（351/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. 94.7%（72/76）and 90.2%（406/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to aztreonam/avibactam combination. Furthermore，57.9%（44/76）and 79.1%（356/450）were sensitive to imipenem/relebactam combination. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 64.6%（370/573），while more than 80.0% of CRAB complex was sensitive to tigecycline，eravacycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 17.0%（99/581）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of important Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions in China，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA and CRAB complex（ χ2=10.6，28.6，10.8 and 19.3， P<0.05）. The prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli， CREC，CRAB complex and CRKP were higher in provincial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=12.5，9.8，12.7 and 57.8，all P<0.01）. Conclusions:Gram-negative bacteria are the main pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of Klebsiella pneumoniae increases continuously with time. CRKP infection shows a slow upward trend，CREC infecton maintains a low prevalence level，and CRAB complex infection continues to exhibit a high prevalence rate. The composition and resistance patterns of pathogens causing bloodstream infections vary to some extent across different regions and levels of hospitals in China.

Objective To develop and validate a risk prediction model for infiltration/extravasation in peripheral intravenous catheter therapy.Methods This retrospective study analyzed 942 patients who completed the Infiltration/Extravasation Risk Assessment Form between January and June 2023 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University(including Departments of Neurology,Endocrinology,Gastroenterology and Hepatobiliary Surgery).Patients were allocated to a derivation cohort(n=628)and validation cohort(n=314)in a 2∶1 ratio based on catheterization chronology.The derivation cohort served for model development and internal validation,while the validation cohort underwent external validation.Logistic scoring method constructed the risk model,with Hosmer-Lemeshow(HL)test assessing goodness-of-fit and ROC curve evaluating predictive performance.Twenty-one potential risk factors were assessed,including age,gender,chronic diseases,clinician experience,treatment compliance,and total infusion volume.Results Infiltration/extravasation occurred in 48 cases(5.10%incidence:31 derivation/17 validation).Among 21 factors,15 showed significant association(P<0.05),with 6 independent predictors:junior high school education or below(OR=5.2),chronic disease history(OR=3.1),poor compliance(OR=2.8),lower extremity venipuncture(OR=4.1),total infusion≥1 000 mL(OR=3.5),and hyperosmotic/corrosive medications(OR=6.7).The final prediction model was:Y=2×(low education)+1×(chronic disease)+1×(poor compliance)+1×(lower extremity puncture)+1×(volume≥1 000 mL)+2×(corrosive agents).For the derivation cohort,AUC was 0.967(95%CI:0.936～0.998),specificity 0.911,sensitivity 0.935,with good calibration(χ2=4.135,P=0.845).Validation cohort showed AUC 0.939(0.853～1.000),specificity 0.919,sensitivity 0.941,and acceptable calibration(χ2=8.998,P=0.085).Conclusion This model demonstrates excellent discriminative ability and calibration,providing an effective tool for identifying high-risk patients and guiding targeted preventive strategies.

Widespread utilization of glyphosate has led to environmental residues,posing potential threats to ecological systems and human health.Traditional methods for detection of glyphosate are limited by specialized equipment and operational techniques,resulting in inefficient responses.Therefore,it is urgent to develop a convenient,sensitive and accurate detection method for detection of glyphosate.Herein,a new naphthalenesulfonamide-based"Turn-on"fluorescent probe was synthesized using 2-chloroaniline and dansyl chloride as raw materials through a one-step process,which showed a good linear relationship between the glyphosate concentration in concentration range of 0.003-70 μmol/L and the fluorescence intensity(R2=0.995),with a detection limit of 2.73 nmol/L(S/N=3).Analytical techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry(HRMS)were used to investigate the interaction mechanism between the fluorescent probe and glyphosate.The results indicated that a nucleophilic substitution reaction occurred between the probe and the secondary amine(—NH—)of glyphosate,inducing a photoinduced electron transfer(PET)effect which enhanced the fluorescence intensity by 11.2 times.The probe showed good anti-interference ability towards coexisting metal ions,anions and pesticides in water.When applied to determination of glyphosate in the samples such as tap water,river water(Xiangxi River Reservoir),soil,soybeans,and corn,the spiking recoveries ranged from 94.7％to 109.9％,demonstrating the high accuracy and broad applicability of this detection method.A portable test strip based on this fluorescent probe was developed for rapid semi-quantitative analysis of glyphosate.The developed method was rapid,sensitive,and portable,providing theoretical and technical support for on-site measurement of environmental contaminants.

Objective:To evaluate serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D 3 [25(OH)D 3] as a potential biomarker for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) severity and to identify risk factors influencing ALS prognosis. Methods:This study included 217 ALS patients hospitalized at the Department of Neurology, First Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital, between October 2018 and October 2021, who met the revised El Escorial diagnostic criteria. A cross-sectional analysis assessed differences in clinical indicators-including the ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R) and forced vital capacity percentage (FVC%)-across different serum 25(OH)D 3 levels. The correlation between 25(OH)D 3 levels and individual ALSFRS-R components was also examined. Conduct a prospective cohort study to identify independent risk factors affecting the survival time of ALS patients. Results:Among three groups categorized by serum 25(OH)D 3 levels, there were significant differences in the proportion of males ( χ2=10.51, P<0.05). Serum 25(OH)D 3 levels correlated positively with lower limb function scores in the ALSFRS-R ( r=0.05, P<0.05), but they were not identified as an independent risk factor for survival ( HR=0.98, 95% CI 0.93-1.04, P>0.05). In contrast, delayed diagnosis( HR=0.94, 95% CI 0.89-0.99, P<0.05) and reduced FVC%( HR=0.94, 95% CI 0.97-0.99, P<0.05) were independent predictors of shorter survival. Conclusion:Serum 25(OH)D 3 levels differ by gender distribution and may be linked to better lower limb function in ALS patients. However, their role in prolonging survival remains uncertain.

Objective:To analyze the prevalence of chronic diseases, the level of chronic disease prevention and control literacy and its influencing factors among middle-aged and elderly residents in Wenzhou from 2020 to 2023.Methods:Based on a cross-sectional research design, 19 528 usual residents aged 45-69 were retrospectively selected with a multi-stage stratified random sampling method from the health literacy monitoring survey in Wenzhou from 2020 to 2023. The χ2 tests and trend χ2 tests were employed to analyze chronic disease prevalence rates and health literacy possession rates across different population subgroups. Binary logistic regression models were used to identify determinants of chronic disease prevention health literacy among middle-aged and elderly residents in Wenzhou. The results were standardized using data from Wenzhou′s Seventh National Population Census. Results:The numbers of middle-aged and elderly respondents was 5 528, 4 822, 4 575 and 4 603 from 2020 to 2023, respectively, and the prevalence of self-rated chronic diseases was 39.56%, 37.33%, 41.29% and 39.00%, respectively (the standardized rate was 33.49%, 33.58%, 36.43% and 35.34%, respectively) in the each year, and the rates of chronic disease prevention and control literacy was 24.76%, 27.98%, 24.44% and 28.13%, respectively (the standardized rate was 27.95%, 30.11%, 27.57%, 29.78%, respectively). The rates of chronic disease prevention and control literacy was on an upward trend in middle-aged and elderly respondents in Wenzhou from 2020 to 2023 ( χ2trend=5.997, P=0.014). From 2020 to 2023, chronic disease prevention health literacy showed a positive educational gradient, with significantly higher levels observed among more educated populations (both P<0.05). Except for 2020, the residents with household income≥30 000 yuan had a higher chronic disease prevention and control literacy than those with household income less than 30 000 yuan (both P<0.05); in 2021 and 2022, the chronic disease prevention and control literacy in the people of 45-59 years was higher than that in the individuals of 60-69 years (both P<0.05); in 2020 and 2022, the rural residents had a higher chronic disease prevention and control literacy than the urban residents, and the rates of chronic disease prevention and control literacy of employees or retirees in government institutions/doctors/teachers were higher than that in the peasants (both P<0.05); in 2023, the chronic disease prevention and control literacy of the smokers was lower than that in the non-smokers ( P=0.014). Conclusions:The prevalence of chronic diseases among the middle-aged and elderly residents in Wenzhou is relatively low, people with chronic diseases, especially those with multiple chronic diseases, have a low level of chronic disease prevention and control literacy. To prevent and control chronic diseases among them, interventions should be differentiated by the chronic disease status, occupation and household income.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between physical activity and genetic risk and their combined effects on the risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. METHODS: This prospective cohort study included 318,085 biobank participants from the UK. Physical activity was assessed using the short form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. The participants were stratified into low-, intermediate-, and high-genetic-risk groups based on their polygenic risk scores. Multivariate Cox regression models and multiplicative interaction analyses were used. RESULTS: During a median follow-up period of 13 years, 9,209 participants were diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. For low genetic risk, compared to low physical activity, the hazard ratios ( HRs) for moderate and high physical activity were 0.853 (95% confidence interval [ CI]: 0.748-0.972) and 0.831 (95% CI: 0.727-0.950), respectively. For intermediate genetic risk, the HRs were 0.829 (95% CI: 0.758-0.905) and 0.835 (95% CI: 0.764-0.914), respectively. For participants with high genetic risk, the HRs were 0.809 (95% CI: 0.746-0.877) and 0.818 (95% CI: 0.754-0.888), respectively. A significant interaction was observed between genetic risk and physical activity. CONCLUSION Moderate or high levels of physical activity were associated with a lower risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease across all genetic risk groups, highlighting the need to tailor activity interventions for genetically susceptible individuals.
