Objective To investigate the attributable risk(AR)of Acinetobacter baumannii(AB)infection in criti-cally ill patients.Methods A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted among adult patients in inten-sive care unit(ICU).Patients with AB isolated from sterile body fluid and confirmed with AB infection in each cen-ter were selected as the infected group.According to the matching criteria that patients should be from the same pe-riod,in the same ICU,as well as with similar APACHE Ⅱ score(±5 points)and primary diagnosis,patients who did not infect with AB were selected as the non-infected group in a 1:2 ratio.The AR was calculated.Results The in-hospital mortality of patients with AB infection in sterile body fluid was 33.3％,and that of non-infected group was 23.1％,with no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P=0.069).The AR was 10.2％(95％CI:-2.3％-22.8％).There is no statistically significant difference in mortality between non-infected pa-tients and infected patients from whose blood,cerebrospinal fluid and other specimen sources AB were isolated(P＞0.05).After infected with AB,critically ill patients with the major diagnosis of pulmonary infection had the high-est AR.There was no statistically significant difference in mortality between patients in the infected and non-infec-ted groups(P＞0.05),or between other diagnostic classifications.Conclusion The prognosis of AB infection in critically ill patients is highly overestimated,but active healthcare-associated infection control for AB in the ICU should still be carried out.

Objective:To explore the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of hospitalized patients with acute poisoning at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University in Jiangxi Province.Methods:Based on the electronic medical records management platform of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, a retrospective analysis was conducted on hospitalized patients with acute poisoning based on ICD-10 disease codes from 2014 to 2021. The gender, age, residence, poison type, etiology, route of exposure, illness severity, diagnostic and therapeutic processes, hospital stay duration, and prognosis of patients were collected.Results:A total of 1 953 cases of acute poisoning were included, comprising 871 males (44.6%) and 1 082 females (55.4%). The age was (42.7±20.0) years, with 113 fatalities (5.8%). Urban residents accounted for 706 cases (36.1%) and rural residents for 1 247 cases (63.9%). The highest incidence occurred in the 41-60 age group. Suicide was the primary cause, constituting 1 318 cases (67.5%), followed by accidental ingestion or contact, with overdose being less frequent. Oral poison way was the predominant route (1 681 cases, 86.1%), followed by inhalation and contact. Pesticide poisoning was the predominant type of poisoning in this study, with 847 cases (43.4%), followed by drug poisoning and foodborne poisoning. Pesticide poisoning predominated among rural residents (79.2%), while drug poisoning was more prevalent among urban residents (53.5%).Conclusions:In this study, patients with acute poisoning exhibited predominantly female gender, hailed from rural areas, and primary etiology of poisoning was pesticide ingestion for suicidal intent. Targeted education and control measures should be carried out for the above high-risk areas, populations and poisons.

This study was aimed at investigating the antimicrobial susceptibility and genomic characteristics of multidrug resistant diarrheagenic Escherichia coli isolated from human and food samples in Henan Province from 2017 to 2022.A total of 101 strains of multidrug resistant diarrheagenic E.coli were subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility testing with the broth di-lution method.Whole genome sequencing was performed to analyze the antimicrobial resistance genes,multilocus sequence typ-ing,and plasmid types.The sequencing data were used to construct a phylogenetic tree based on core genome single-nucleotide polymorphisms(cgSNPs).The isolates showed the highest resistance to ampicillin(87.1％),followed by tetracycline(79.2％)and nalidixic acid(64.4％).The resistance rate to cefotaxime was 38.6％.All 101 strains were classified into 60 STs,among which ST10,ST1491,and ST38 were dominant.Moreover,23 distinct plasmid replicons were identified,among which IncFIB was dominant.Diverse antimicrobial resistance genes(including quinolone,aminoglycoside,β-lactamase,and tetracycline)were identified.Insertion sequences(IS26,IS903B,and ISECP 1)were identified in upstream and downstream analysis of the gene context of the extended-spectrum β-lactamase bla CTX-M-14 and bla CTX-M-55 genes.In conclusion,multidrug resistant diarrhea-genic Escherichia coli isolated from clinical and food samples in Henan Province showed high genetic diversity and high antimi-crobial resistance.The dissemination of blaCTX-M carried by the strains was shown to be associated with the insertion sequence(IS).

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the difference in intestinal microbiota between preterm infants with neurodevelopmental impairment (NDI) and those without NDI. METHODS: In this prospective cohort study, the preterm infants who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from September 1, 2019 to September 30, 2021 were enrolled as subjects. According to the assessment results of Gesell Developmental Scale at the corrected gestational age of 1.5-2 years, they were divided into two groups: normal (n=115) and NDI (n=100). Fecal samples were collected one day before discharge, one day before introducing solid food, and at the corrected gestational age of 1 year. High-throughput sequencing was used to compare the composition of intestinal microbiota between groups. RESULTS: Compared with the normal group, the NDI group had a significantly higher Shannon diversity index at the corrected gestational age of 1 year (P<0.05). The principal coordinate analysis showed a significant difference in the composition of intestinal microbiota between the two groups one day before introducing solid food and at the corrected gestational age of 1 year (P<0.05). Compared with the normal group, the NDI group had a significantly higher abundance of Bifidobacterium in the intestine at all three time points, a significantly higher abundance of Enterococcus one day before introducing solid food and at the corrected gestational age of 1 year, and a significantly lower abundance of Akkermansia one day before introducing solid food (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS There are significant differences in the composition of intestinal microbiota between preterm infants with NDI and those without NDI. This study enriches the data on the characteristics of intestinal microbiota in preterm infants with NDI and provides reference for the microbiota therapy and intervention for NDI in preterm infants.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the protective effect and mechanism of Kuntai (KT) Capsule on angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced hypertension in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. METHODS: Fifty-four rats were randomly divided into 6 groups according to a random number table, 9 in each group: control, OVX sham+Ang II, OVX, OVX+Ang II, OVX+Ang II +E₂, and OVX+Ang II +KT. OVX rats model was constructed by retroperitoneal bilateral ovariectomy. After 4 weeks of pretreatment with KT Capsule [0.8 g/(kg·d) and 17- β -estradiol (E₂, 1.2 mg/(kg·d)] respectively, Ang II was injected into a micro-osmotic pump with a syringe to establish a hypertensive rat model. Blood pressure of rat tail artery was measured in a wake state of rats using a non-invasive sphygmomanometer. Blood pressure changes were compared between the intervention groups (OVX+Ang II +KT, OVX+Ang II +E₂) and the negative control group (OVX+Ang II). Serum malondialdehyde (MDA) level and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity were detected respectively. The expressions of oxidative stress-related protein superoxide dismutase2 (SOD2) and anti-thioredoxin (TRX), autophagy marker protein [beclin1, light chain (LC) 3 II/I ratio and autophagy canonical pathway protein phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/serine/threonine kinase (AKT)-mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)] were evaluated by Western blotting. RESULTS: Compared with the OVX+Ang II group, the systolic blood pressure of OVX+Ang II +KT group was significantly lowered (P<0.05) but not the diastolic blood pressure. Besides, SOD2 and TRX protein levels in mycardial tissues were significantly reduced in the OVX+Ang II +KT group compared with the OVX+Ang II group (P<0.05). Oxidative stress serum markers MDA and SOD were down- and up-regulated in the OVX+Ang II +KT group, respectively (P<0.05). Compared with OVX+Ang II group, the levels of cardiac proteins beclin-1 and LC3II/LC3 I in OVX+Ang II +KT group were also up-regulated (P<0.05), and the expression levels of p-PI3K, p-AKT and mTOR protein were down-regulated (P<0.05). CONCLUSION KT could protect blood pressure of Ang II-induced OVX rats by inhibiting oxidative stress and up-regulating protective autophagy.

OBJECTIVE: This study was aimed at investigating the carrier rate of, and molecular variation in, α- and β-globin gene mutations in Hunan Province. METHODS: We recruited 25,946 individuals attending premarital screening from 42 districts and counties in all 14 cities of Hunan Province. Hematological screening was performed, and molecular parameters were assessed. RESULTS: The overall carrier rate of thalassemia was 7.1%, including 4.83% for α-thalassemia, 2.15% for β-thalassemia, and 0.12% for both α- and β-thalassemia. The highest carrier rate of thalassemia was in Yongzhou (14.57%). The most abundant genotype of α-thalassemia and β-thalassemia was -α ^3.7/αα (50.23%) and β ^IVS-II-654/β ^N (28.23%), respectively. Four α-globin mutations [CD108 (ACC>AAC), CAP +29 (G>C), Hb Agrinio and Hb Cervantes] and six β-globin mutations [CAP +8 (C>T), IVS-II-848 (C>T), -56 (G>C), beta nt-77 (G>C), codon 20/21 (-TGGA) and Hb Knossos] had not previously been identified in China. Furthermore, this study provides the first report of the carrier rates of abnormal hemoglobin variants and α-globin triplication in Hunan Province, which were 0.49% and 1.99%, respectively. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrates the high complexity and diversity of thalassemia gene mutations in the Hunan population. The results should facilitate genetic counselling and the prevention of severe thalassemia in this region.
