OBJECTIVE To investigate the current status of contamination with carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria in environment of intensive care units(ICU)of tertiary hospitals in Shanghai and find out the potential contamination sources so as to provide bases for prevention and control of multidrug-resistant organisms infec-tions in the ICUs.METHODS The surroundings of the ICU patients detected with CRGNB and environmental ob-jects surfaces in public area were sampled by mSuperCARBA chromogenic media from Dec.2024 to Jan.2025,the strains were isolated,and the targeted strains were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight(MALDI-TOF)mass spectrometer.RESULTS A total of 653 samples were collected in the survey,76 of which were positive for bacterial culture,60 were detected with CRGNB,and the isolation rate of CRGNB was 9.19%.The isolation rate of CRGNB was 53.40%in the water-source group,0.91%in the non-water-source group,and there was significant difference(x2=286.450,P<0.001).The result of whole genome sequencing for 17 strains of CRKP showed that ST11 and ST15 were the two major types of multilocus typing(MT),respective-ly carrying 2-12 types of drug resistance genes.CONCLUSIONS The CRGNB strains are detected in some environ-mental sites of the ICUs of 15 tertiary hospitals in Shanghai,and the isolation rate of CRKP is highest among them.The colonization rate of CRGNB is relatively low on the highly frequent-contact object surfaces of the ICUs,however,sink drain holes poses a risk of hospital-acquired CRGNB infections transmissions.Additionally,the ba-sins and towels of the CRGNB patients are hard to be thoroughly cleaned,disinfected and dried,resulting in a high contamination rate.

Objective To investigate the perioperative use of antimicrobial agents in class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgeries in secondary first-class and above medical institutions in Shanghai City,and provide a basis for the rational use of antimicrobial agents in such surgeries.Methods Perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis(PAP)in patients undergoing class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgery reported by secondary first-class and above hospitals in Shanghai City from 2017 to 2022 was collected retrospectively.The prophylactic use rate,types,rationality of selection,and timing of use of antimicrobial agents were analyzed comprehensively.Results From 2017 to 2022,a total of 54 868 cases of class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgeries were reported from secondary first-class and above hospitals in Shanghai City.The PAP rates in tertiary comprehensive hospitals,tertiary specialty hospitals,tertiary traditional Chinese medicine hospitals,and secondary comprehensive hospitals were 4.72%,1.79%,3.22%,and 6.63%,re-spectively.The overall PAP rate showed a yearly decreasing trend,from 6.39%in 2017 to 2.31%in 2021.Among different types of hospitals,the PAP rate in secondary comprehensive hospitals decreased most significantly,from 12.72%in 2017 to 0.53%in 2022.The main types of prophylactic antimicrobial use were first-,second-and third-generation cephalosporins,and quinolones.The rational selection rates of antimicrobial agents were highest in ter-tiary comprehensive hospitals(17.13%)and lowest in tertiary specialty hospitals(1.08%).The PAP rates in sys-temic veins 0.5-1 hour before surgery were highest in tertiary specialty hospitals(88.17%)and lowest in tertiary comprehensive hospitals(71.53%).The withdrawal rates of antimicrobial agents within 24 hours after surgery were highest in tertiary traditional Chinese medicine hospitals(80.87%)and lowest in tertiary specialty hospitals(13.26%).Conclusion The PAP for class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgeries in secondary first-class and above medical institutions in Shanghai City still presents certain irrational phenomena in terms of antimicrobial types and administration routes.The administration rate 0.5-1 hour before surgery and withdrawal rate of antimicrobial agents within 24 hours after surgery need to be further improved.Enhanced management is necessary to promote more rational use of antimicrobial agents.

Objective To explore and analyze the characteristics and transmission routes of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)strains in intensive care unit(ICU).Methods From January to October 2023,17 clinical infection isolates(clinical infection group),5 active screening isolates(active screening group),and 7 envi-ronmental isolates(environmental group)of CRKP in the liver surgery ICU of a hospital were selected and analyzed by whole-genome sequencing.The differences in resistance genes,virulence genes,and sequence typing(ST)were compared,and transmission routes were analyzed based on the phylogenetic tree.Results 29 strains of CRKP car-ried 4-18 resistance genes and 52-98 virulence genes,respectively.There were no statistically significant diffe-rences in genotype distribution of resistance genes,the number of virulence genes,and gene types among three groups of CRKP(all P>0.05).ST showed that 29 CRKP strains mainly consisted of two categories:ST11 and ST15.Based on the phylogenetic tree constructed from the core genome,there were 7 highly homologous groups of CRKP,among which 4 groups had clear epidemiological associations.Conclusion CRKP in ICU carries more re-sistance and virulence genes,and some strains are highly homologous in ST and phylogenetic tree,which may lead to cross transmission.In the future,prevention and control measures should be strengthened to reduce the trans-mission of CRKP.

Polymorphism refers to the simultaneous and frequent existence of two or more discontinuous variants or genotypes or alleles in a biological population, also known as genetic polymorphisms or genes Polymorphism. This gene polymorphism may have a certain degree of influence on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the drug. The study of genomics plays an important role in realizing personalized, patient-oriented precision medicine treatment. Population model analysis is to use a modeling method to quantitatively describe the correlation and variability between pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters and individual characteristics and to quantify the impact of covariates. At present, this method has been widely used. This paper systematically introduces the application examples of using the population model approach to assess the effects of genetic polymorphisms on the drug PK/PD.

Drug safety is always the primary concern in both the stage of new drug development and the post-marketing clinical application stage, and it is also the main reason for drug development failure and even post-marketing drug withdrawal. The physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model can not only routinely predict the human plasma pharmacokinetics, but also predict the concentration distribution of drugs in different tissues, which has become an important tool for predicting the adverse reactions of new drugs and has gradually attracted the attention of drug regulatory authorities. In this article, the latest progress and application of the PBPK model for predicting drug-induced nephrotoxicity, cardiotoxicity, and neurotoxicity are briefly reviewed to provide references for early prediction of adverse drug reactions in new drug development and rational clinical use of drugs.

Objective:To analyze the consistency and correlation between the Chinese Version of Swanson Nolan and Pelham, Version Ⅳ Scale (SNAP-Ⅳ) and the Integrated Visual and Auditory Continuous Performance Test (IVA-CPT) in the assessment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), thus providing a reliable basis for the diagnosis of ADHD, and reducing the misdiagnosis rate and missed diagnosis rate.Methods:Clinical data of children to be diagnosed as ADHD in the Department of Children′s Rehabilitation, Yuying Children′s Hospital of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from October 2019 to July 2020 were collected.A total of 282 SNAP-Ⅳ and IVA-CPT profiles were collected, and the Kappa test and Pearson test were used to retrospectively analyzed for their consistency and correlation in the diagnosis of ADHD. Results:SNAP-Ⅳ and IVA-CPT were consistent in the diagnosis of ADHD (Kappa value=0.514, total coincidence rate=65.6%, P<0.000 1). Inattention subset scores of SNAP-Ⅳ were consistent with the assessment of ADHD by IVA-CPT (Kappa value=0.485, total coincidence rate=75.5%, P<0.000 1). Inattention subset scores of SNAP-Ⅳ were negatively correlated with the Full Scale Attention Quotient (FAQ) in IVA-CPT ( r=-0.71, P<0.000 1). Hyperactivity-impulsive subscale in the SNAP-Ⅳ and IVA-CPT were consistent in the assessment of hyperactivity-impulsive behavior (Kappa value=0.585, total coincidence rate=81.6%, P<0.000 1). Hyperactivity-impulse subset scores were negatively correlated with the Full Scale Response Control Quotient (FRCQ) in IVA-CPT ( r=-0.74, P<0.000 1). Conclusions:Both SNAP-Ⅳ and IVA-CPT have certain diagnostic potential of ADHD, showing good consistency and correlation.They can be both used to provide a more comprehensive diagnosis basis, thereby reducing the misdiagnosis rate and missed diagnosis rate of ADHD.
