Objective This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial resistance profiles of bacterial strains isolated from pediatric intensive care units(PICU)in China for better antimicrobial therapy.Methods Clinical isolates were collected from 17 institutions,including tertiary care children's hospitals and pediatric department of tertiary general hospitals in China from January 1,2020 to December 31,2022.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out according to a unified protocol using Kirby-Bauer method or automated systems.Results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)in 2020.Results A total of 10 688 isolates were collected,including gram-positive organisms(39.2％)and gram-negative organisms(60.8％).The top three organisms were S.aureus(13.6％,1 453/10 688),A.baumannii(10.0％,1 067/10 688),and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(9.9％,1 058/10 688).Multi-drug resistant organisms(MDROs)were very common in children.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA),carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE),carbapenem-resistant E.coli,carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae(CRKP),carbapenem-resistant A.baumannii(CRAB),and carbapenem-resistant P.aeruginosa(CRPA)was 41.1％,19.4％,8.8％,30.9％,67.4％,and 28.8％,respectively.Overall,more than 50％of Enterobacteriales isolates were resistant to cephalosporins,while nearly 25％of Enterobacteriales isolates were resistant to carbapenems.MDROs were highly resistant to commonly used antibiotics.More than 80％of CRE and CRAB strains were resistant to all beta-lactam antibiotics.CRE and CRAB showed low resistance rates to tigecycline and polymyxin.CRPA showed lower resistance rates to piperacillin,beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations than the resistance rates to third and fourth generation cephalosporins.All of the Staphylococcus and Enterococcus isolates were susceptible to vancomycin and tigecycline.None of PRSP strains isolated from meningitis and nonmeningitis samples were resistant to rifampicin,vancomycin,or linezolid.The prevalence of β-lactamase-negative ampicillin-resistant(BLNAR)strains was 43.3％in Haemophilus influenzae.Conclusions MDROs were prevalent in PICU.It is necessary to establish an effective multidisciplinary team(MDT)to control the antimicrobial resistance.

Objective:To establish a method for determining the sialylation levels of N-glycan profiles based on ion-exchange chromatography in glycoprotein drugs.Methods:The separation was performed in a column picking with anion-exchange resin(4.6 mm × 250 mm,5 μm,or equivalent).Mobile phase A was 20％ acetonitrile solution,while mobile phase B was a 20％acetonitrile solution containing 0.1 mol·L-1 ammonium formate(pH 4.5).The flow rate was 0.60 mL·min-1.Detection was performed using a fluorescence detector with excita-tion and emission wavelengths of 330 and 420 nm,respectively.The injection volume was 5 μL.Results:Within the target loading sample range of 40％ to 160％,the peak area showed a good linear relationship with protein concentration(r＞0.99).The average recovery rates at three concentration levels were 106.25％,100.00％,and 106.67％,respectively.The limit of quantification was 0.03％.Conclusion:This method is suitable for detecting the sialylation levels of N-glycan profiles in various glycoprotein drugs.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) -empowered interprofessional collaborative learning model in nursing psychology practical teaching for undergraduate nursing students.Methods:From November to December 2024, 109 second-year nursing students from the Xiangya School of Nursing, Central South University were selected as research subjects using convenience sampling. Two classes were randomly divided into an experimental group (55 students) and a control group (54 students) using a random draw method. Control group received a traditional teaching model based primarily on case discussion and scenario simulation teaching, while experimental group used the GAI-empowered interprofessional collaborative learning model on the basis of control group. The teaching effectiveness was evaluated using the Psychological Nursing Practice Competency Assessment Scale, Caring Ability Inventory (CAI), Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale (RIPLS), and Satisfaction Survey Questionnaire.Results:After teaching, experimental group's practical course assessment scores, CAI total scores, and scores in each dimension were all higher than those of control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). The RIPLS score of nursing students in experimental group after teaching was higher than that before teaching, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). 90.9% of nursing students supported the introduction of GAI into the classroom, and 90.9% of nursing students recognized the auxiliary role of GAI in achieving learning objectives, and the teaching satisfaction was 96.4%. Conclusions:This study validates the effectiveness of GAI-empowered interprofessional collaborative learning model in nursing psychology practical teaching for undergraduate nursing students, providing new ideas for nursing education reform.

Objective:To explore the trajectory of changes in electronic health literacy in young and middle-aged patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) combined with diabetes mellitus (DM) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and to analyze its relationship with unplanned readmission within 30 days.Methods:A convenience sample of 210 young and middle-aged CHD patients with DM who underwent PCI in the Department of Cardiology, Xinxiang Central Hospital, from February 2023 to June 2024 was selected. The e-Health Literacy Scale (eHEALS) was used to assess electronic health literacy at the 3rd day (T 1), 15th day (T 2), and 30th day (T 3) after PCI. Unplanned readmission within 30 days after discharge was recorded. Latent class growth model (LCGM) was used to identify categories and characteristics of electronic health literacy trajectories. Kaplan-Meier method was applied to plot the cumulative incidence of 30-day unplanned readmission, and the Log-Rank test was used to compare differences among different trajectory types. Results:A total of 207 patients completed the entire survey and follow-up, with a valid response rate of 98.57% (207/210). eHEALS scores gradually increased after PCI, with scores of (6.75±1.31), (11.55±3.31), and (15.56±5.75) at T 1, T 2, and T 3, respectively. Two potential categories were identified: persistent low-level type (85 cases, 41.06%) and gradually improving type (122 cases, 58.94%). Twenty-six patients experienced unplanned readmission within 30 days, with an incidence of 12.56%. The proportions of unplanned readmission within 30 days were 20.00% (17/85) in the persistent low-level group and 7.38% (9/122) in the gradually improving group, with a statistically significant difference (χ 2=7.268, P=0.007). Kaplan-Meier cumulative risk function analysis showed that the cumulative incidence of 30-day unplanned readmission in the gradually improving group was lower than that in the persistent low-level group, with a statistically significant difference (Log-Rank=7.683, P=0.006) . Conclusions:Young and middle-aged CHD patients with DM after PCI show trajectory characteristics in electronic health literacy. Although the electronic health literacy of some patients gradually improved after PCI, persistent low-level literacy was still common, and patients in the persistent low-level group had a higher risk of 30-day unplanned readmission, which deserves clinical attention.

To investigate the expression level of costimulatory molecule B7-H3 in the tumor tissues and the level of soluble costimulatory molecule B7-H3 (sB7-H3) in the serum of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), so as to evaluate the clinical value of sB7-H3 in auxiliary diagnosis of CRC. A cross-sectional study design was adopted. A total of 232 CRC patients, 87 patients with benign colorectal diseases, and 59 healthy subjects who were treated in Shanghai Eighth People′s Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were selected. The levels of sB7-H3, CEA, CA199, CA724 and CA50 in the serum were detected. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of sB7-H3 and the above-mentioned tumor markers for colorectal cancer (CRC). The expression levels of B7-H3 in CRC tissues and benign colorectal disease tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry. The relationship between the levels of sB7-H3 and clinicopathological features was analyzed statistically. The results showed that compared with the benign disease group or the healthy control respectively, the serum levels of sB7-H3, CEA, CA199, CA724 and CA50 in the CRC group were significantly increased, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). In the CRC group, the serum levels of sB7-H3 showed a weak positive correlation with CA50, CEA and CA724 (the r values were 0.220, 0.217 and 0.182 respectively; the P values were 0.005,<0.001 and 0.024 respectively), and there was no significant correlation with CA199 (the r value was 0.162; the P value were 0.051). The areas under the curve (AUC) of sB7-H3, CEA, CA199, CA724 and CA50 for diagnosing CRC were 0.862, 0.774, 0.646, 0.677 and 0.644 respectively, and the cut-off values were 20.67 ng/ml, 10.74 U/ml, 3.17 ng/ml, 3.16 U/ml, and 22.55 U/ml, respectively. Taking 20.67 ng/ml as the cut-off value, the positive rate of sB7-H3 in CRC was 62.9%, which was significantly higher than that in patients with benign colorectal diseases (35.6%) and the healthy control group (10%) ( χ2=81.995, P<0.001; χ2=103.56, P<0.001). The positive rates of sB7-H3 and CEA in patients with pathological stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ were significantly higher than those in patients with stages Ⅰ and Ⅱ ( χ2=82.876, P<0.001; χ2=22.617, P<0.001). The positive rate of sB7-H3 in patients with pathological stages Ⅰ and Ⅱ was 56.2%, which was significantly higher than that of CEA (38%) ( χ2=50.378, P<0.001). Immunohistochemistry showed that B7-H3 positive staining was mainly distributed in the cytoplasm. The positive expression rate of B7-H3 in CRC (75.8%) was significantly higher than that in benign colorectal diseases (15.4%) ( χ2=16.133, P<0.001). The serum level of sB7-H3 in CRC patients was positively correlated with the expression level of B7-H3 in tumor tissues ( r=0.766, P<0.001). The serum level of sB7-H3 was significantly correlated with distant metastasis and pathological stage of CRC ( W=899, P=0.002; H=10.465, P=0.015). In conclusion, serum level of sB7-H3 may have certain clinical value in the auxiliary diagnosis of CRC.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of positive psychological intervention based on the positive emotion, engagement, relationship, meaning, accomplishment (PERMA) model in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) .Methods:From January 2022 to December 2023, 230 patients with CHF in the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were selected by convenience sampling method. The patients were divided into an experimental group ( n=115) and a control group ( n=115) based on the randomized numerical table method. Control group was given conventional intervention and experimental group was treated with positive psychological intervention based on the PERMA model on the basis of control group, both for four weeks. The Self-Perceived Burden Scale (SPBS) , Self-Management Scale of Heart Failure Patients, Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale (WEM-WBS) , Six-Minute Walk Test, and Newcastle Satisfaction with Nursing Scale (NSNS) were used to compare the effects of the intervention. Results:After the intervention, the SPBS score of experimental group was lower than that of control group, the Self-Management Scale of Heart Failure Patients score and WEM-WBS score were higher than those of control group, the Six-Minute Walk Test distance was longer than that of control group, and the satisfaction with nursing services was higher than that of control group, and the differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Positive psychological interventions based on the PERMA model can reduce the self-perceived burden of CHF patients and improve their self-management, positive psychological state, and satisfaction.

Purpose: Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common male sexual dysfunction. Gut microbiota plays an important role in various diseases. To investigate the effects and mechanisms of intestinal flora dysregulation induced by high-fat diet (HFD) on erectile function. Materials and Methods: Male Sprague–Dawley rats aged 8 weeks were randomly divided into the normal diet (ND) and HFD groups. After 24 weeks, a measurement of erectile function was performed. We performed 16S rRNA sequencing of stool samples. Then, we established fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) rat models by transplanting fecal microbiota from rats of ND group and HFD group to two new groups of rats respectively. After 24 weeks, erectile function of the rats was evaluated and 16S rRNA sequencing was performed, and serum samples were collected for the untargeted metabolomics detection. Results: The erectile function of rats and the species diversity of intestinal microbiota in the HFD group was significantly lower, and the characteristics of the intestinal microbiota community structure were also significantly different between the two groups. The erectile function of rats in the HFD-FMT group was significantly lower than that of rats in the ND-FMT group. The characteristics of the intestinal microbiota community structure were significantly different. In the HFD-FMT group, 27 metabolites were significantly different and they were mainly involved in the several inflammation-related pathways. Conclusions Intestinal microbiota disorders induced by HFD can damage the intestinal barrier of rats, change the serum metabolic profile, induce low-grade inflammation and apoptosis in the corpus cavernosum of the penis, and lead to ED.

Numerous c-mesenchymal-epithelial transition (c-MET) inhibitors have been reported as potential anticancer agents. However, most fail to enter clinical trials owing to poor efficacy or drug resistance. To date, the scaffold-based chemical space of small-molecule c-MET inhibitors has not been analyzed. In this study, we constructed the largest c-MET dataset, which included 2,278 molecules with different structures, by inhibiting the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) of kinase activity. No significant differences in drug-like properties were observed between active molecules (1,228) and inactive molecules (1,050), including chemical space coverage, physicochemical properties, and absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) profiles. The higher chemical diversity of the active molecules was downscaled using t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) high-dimensional data. Further clustering and chemical space networks (CSNs) analyses revealed commonly used scaffolds for c-MET inhibitors, such as M5, M7, and M8. Activity cliffs and structural alerts were used to reveal "dead ends" and "safe bets" for c-MET, as well as dominant structural fragments consisting of pyridazinones, triazoles, and pyrazines. Finally, the decision tree model precisely indicated the key structural features required to constitute active c-MET inhibitor molecules, including at least three aromatic heterocycles, five aromatic nitrogen atoms, and eight nitrogen-oxygen atoms. Overall, our analyses revealed potential structure-activity relationship (SAR) patterns for c-MET inhibitors, which can inform the screening of new compounds and guide future optimization efforts.

OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress on the lower limb biomechanical characteristics of patients with discoid lateral meniscus (DLM) injury after surgery. METHODS: By searching relevant domestic and international research literature on DLM, the postoperative characteristics of knee joint movement biomechanics, tibiofemoral joint stress distribution, lower extremity force line, and patellofemoral joint changes in patients with DLM injury were summarized. RESULTS: Surgical treatment can lead to varying degrees of changes in the lower limb biomechanical characteristics of patients with DLM injury. Specifically, the kinematic biomechanics of the knee joint can significantly improve, but there are still problems such as extension deficits in the affected knee joint. The peak stress of the tibiofemoral joint decreases with the increase of the residual meniscus volume, and the degree of change is closely related to the residual meniscus volume. Preserving a larger volume of the meniscus, especially the anterior horn volume, helps to reduce stress concentration. The lower extremity force line will deviate outward after surgery, and the more meniscus is removed during surgery, the greater the change in the lower extremity force line after surgery. There are conditions such as cartilage degeneration, position and angle changes in the patellofemoral joint after surgery. CONCLUSION The changes in the lower limb biomechanical characteristics after DLM injury are closely related to the choice of surgical methods and rehabilitation programs. However, the mechanisms of biomechanical changes in multiple lower limb joints and individual differences still need to be further studied and clarified.
