ObjectiveTo understand the status of parasitic infection in the food sold on market in Qingpu District of Shanghai, and to provide an evidence for the development of prevention and control strategies for parasitic infection applicable to Qingpu District. MethodsAquatic products, meat products and other foodstuffs sold on online shops, at farm product markets, supermarkets/foodstores and restaurants were sampled in Qingpu District, Shanghai, during 2015‒2023, based on the administrative division of Qingpu District. The parasitic infection in the food samples were examined using pressing method and digestion for detecting metacercariae in freshwater products and pickled products, using dissection microscopy for Anisakis larvae in seawater products, Taenia cysticercus and Trichinella encysted larvae in meat products. ResultsA total of 1 079 samples of food products were examined during 2015‒2023, with a total parasite infection rate of 13.44%. The total parasite infection rate of freshwater fish products was 3.40% (16/471), and the difference of parasite infection rates between different freshwater fish species was statistically significant (χ²=229.609, P=0.001). The total infection rate of Clonorchis sinensis was 3.18% (15/471), which had been detected in Pseudorasbora parva, Cyprinidae rhodeus, and Carassius auratus, with a positive rate of 77.78% (7/9), 50.00% (5/10) and 3.90% (3/77), respectively. Metorchis orientalis was detected in in Pseudorasbora parva, with a positive rate of 33.33% (3/9). The positive rate of Gnathostoma spinigerum (third-stage larvae) was 0.81%. Paragonimus metacercariae were not detected in the freshwater shrimps and crabs. The infection rate of seawater fish products was 26.46%. The difference of parasite infection rate in seawater fishes was statistically significant (χ²=109.181, P=0.001). A total of 53 pork and beef samples were tested, none was detected with Trichinella larva cysts, Taenia solium metacercariae, and Taenia saginata metacercariae. The total infection rate of pickled yellow mud snail products was 58.11% (43/74). Paragonimus metacercariae was not detected in any of the pickled aquatic product samples. ConclusionThere are different degrees of parasitic infection in freshwater products, seawater products and pickled aquatic products in Qingpu District of Shanghai. The risk of parasite infection from raw or undercooked foods is high. Health education on healthy dietary practices such as throughly cooked food should be strengthened for local residents.

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 analyze the expression level of protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) in pancreatic cancer tissues and its correlation with prognosis using bioinformatics methods, and to explore its potential mechanisms.Methods:Expression analysis of the PRMTs family members was performed based on the gene expression profiles of 178 pancreatic cancer tissues from the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) database and 171 normal pancreatic tissues from the TCGA and GTEx databases. Using the median expression level of PRMTs family members in pancreatic cancer tissues as the cutoff, patients were divided into high-expression and low-expression groups, and Kaplan-Meier curves for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were plotted. The correlation between PRMT5 expression and the expression of oncogenes such as KRAS, TP53, BRCA1, BRCA2, and SLC39A4 was analyzed. Functional enrichment analysis was conducted on genes similar to PRMT5, and a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed to analyze the interaction relationships among these similar genes. Pancreatic cancer PANC1 and AsPC-1 cells cultured in standard medium served as the control group, while PANC1 and AsPC-1 cells cultured in medium supplemented with the PRMT5 inhibitor EPZ015666 served as the intervention group. Cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 assay, and cell cycle progression was analyzed by flow cytometry.Results:The expression level of PRMT5 in pancreatic cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in normal pancreatic tissues and showed a significant negative correlation with both OS and DFS. Patients with high PRMT5 expression had a shorter median survival time compared to those with low expression (17.2 months vs 19.5 months). PRMT5 expression was significantly positively correlated with the expression of oncogenes KRAS, TP53, BRCA1, BRCA2, SLC39A4, and KLF5. Genes similar to PRMT5 were primarily enriched in cell cycle-related signaling pathways, and NOP58 identified as a hub gene in the PPI network. Compared to the control group, the proliferation activity of PANC1 and AsPC-1 cells in the intervention group was significantly reduced [(67.3±1.9)% vs (100±4.4)% for PANC1; (60.5±2.7)% vs (100.0±1.7)% for AsPC-1], and the proportion of cells in the G1 phase was significantly increased [(51.6±0.7)% vs (35.3±2.7)% for PANC1; (51.2±0.9)% vs (29.7±2.2)% for AsPC-1]. All these differences were statistically significant (all P values <0.05). Conclusions:High expression of PRMT5 was closely associated with poor prognosis in pancreatic cancer patients, and it may contribute to pancreatic cancer progression by regulating the cell cycle.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of amlodipine besylate and benazepril hydrochloride tablets (II) in the treatment of primary hypertension.Methods:A total of 280 patients with primary hypertension who were treated at Shougang Shuigang Hospital between June 2022 and June 2023 were selected as study subjects. A clinical case-control study was conducted, and the RAND function method was utilized to randomly allocate the subjects into four groups, each receiving a different treatment: amlodipine besylate group (Group A, n = 70), benazepril hydrochloride group (Group B, n = 70), compound formulation amlodipine besylate and benazepril hydrochloride tablets group (Group C, n = 71), and amlodipine besylate plus benazepril hydrochloride group (Group D, n = 69). Relevant therapeutic indicators (blood pressure compliance rate, changes in blood pressure values) and safety indicators (adverse reactions, medication adherence) were observed. Results:The blood pressure compliance rates of Group C and Group D were 91.5% (65/71) and 89.9% (62/69), respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( χ2 = 1.24, P = 0.143), but both were higher than the rates of 77.1% (54/70) and 74.3% (52/70) in Group A and Group B, respectively ( χ2 = 5.68, 4.86, P = 0.004, 0.012). Before treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in systolic and diastolic blood pressure among the four groups of patients (all P > 0.05). After treatment, there was a statistically significant decrease in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure among the four groups compared with their pre-treatment levels (all P < 0.05). Specifically, Group C and Group D exhibited significant reductions in blood pressure following treatment ( t = 4.35, 5.12, 7.25, 5.86, all P < 0.05). Meanwhile, there was no statistically significant difference in systolic blood pressure between Group C and Group D after treatment ( P > 0.05), while diastolic blood pressure was lower in Group C than Group D after treatment ( t = 6.01, P < 0.05). There was a significant downward trend observed in total cholesterol, triglycerides, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (all P < 0.05). Notably, Group B and Group D reported higher incidences of dry cough, with 15 and 10 cases, respectively, compared with Group A and Group C, which had 1 and 3 cases, respectively. These differences were statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.25, 5.04, both P < 0.05). Furthermore, the treatment compliance rates for Group A, Group B, and Group C were 72.9% (51/70), 71.4% (50/70), and 74.6% (53/71), respectively, all exceeding the 46.4% (32/69) compliance rate of Group D. These differences were also statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.68, 5.24, 4.98, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:The clinical efficacy and safety of the compound formulation amlodipine besylate and benazepril hydrochloride tablets (II) in the treatment of primary hypertension are superior to those of single tablets and combination therapy.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and respiratory function in mechanically ventilated children with severe pneumonia and its prognostic value.Methods:A case-series study.Ninety-two children with severe pneumonia who were treated with mechanical ventilation in the Intensive Care Unit of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from May 2019 to May 2021 were taken as the study subjects.The IAP and respiratory function-related indexes of the children were monitored.Those with IAP ≥12 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) were divided into the study group, and those with IAP <12 mmHg were divided into the control group.The difference in respiratory function related indexes between the 2 groups was compared, and the relationship between IAP and respiratory function indexes was analyzed by Pearson correlation.The children were divided into a good prognosis group and a poor prognosis group according to their prognosis.The relevant clinical data of the children in the 2 groups were collected for univariate analysis, and multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors affecting the prognosis of children with mechanical ventilation for severe pneumonia.A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to analyze the predictive value of IAP on the prognosis of mechanically ventilated children with severe pneumonia.Results:The arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2) [(80.15±8.23) mmHg], arterial blood oxygen saturation (SaO 2) [(91.32±2.13)%], and oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2) [(198.29±20.25) mmHg] in the study group were lower than those in the control group [(85.74±8.42) mmHg, (97.05±2.47)%, and (234.84±25.24) mmHg], while the respiratory rate (RR) [(56.23±2.16) breaths/min vs. (50.41±2.24) breaths/min], partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2) [(36.48±3.72) mmHg vs.(33.29±3.46) mmHg], fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO 2) [(40.42±4.25)% vs.(36.51±3.72)%], mean arterial pressure (MAP) [(55.98±5.69) mmHg vs.(52.79±5.43) mmHg], and positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) [(5.03±0.52) cmH 2O vs.(4.52±0.47) cmH 2O, 1 cmH 2O=0.098 kPa] were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were all statistically significant (all P<0.05).The IAP of the children in the study group was (14.25±1.83) mmHg, and that in the control group was (10.38±1.14) mmHg.Pearson correlation analysis showed that IAP was negatively correlated with PaO 2, SaO 2, and PaO 2/FiO 2 ( r=-0.615, -0.587, and -0.647, all P<0.05), and was positively correlated with RR, PaCO 2, FiO 2, MAP, and PEEP ( r=0.618, 0.634, 0.579, 0.578, 0.593, all P<0.05).IAP [(14.76±1.58) mmHg], PaCO 2 [(39.95±4.21) mmHg], FiO 2 [(50.29±5.12)%], alanine aminotransferase[(42.08±4.15) U/L], and total bilirubin [(17.92±1.87) μmol/L] in the poor prognosis group were greater than those [(10.75±1.19) mmHg, (35.37±3.64) mmHg, (45.38±4.47)%, (39.87±4.06) U/L, and (17.09±1.75) μmol/L] in the good prognosis group, while PaO 2 [(65.42±7.86) mmHg vs.(76.42±7.51) mmHg], SaO 2 [(90.65±9.26)% vs.(96.21±2.19)%], and PaO 2/FiO 2 [(130.09±15.15) mmHg vs.(168.40±20.17) mmHg] were smaller than those in the good prognosis group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that IAP, PaO 2, PaCO 2, and SaO 2 were risk factors affecting the prognosis of mechanically ventilated children with severe pneumonia (all P<0.05).The optimal cut-off point of IAP for predicting a poor prognosis in mechanically ventilated children with severe pneumonia was 14.55 mmHg, and the area under the ROC curve was 0.873, with a sensitivity of 88.10% and a specificity of 76.00%. Conclusions:IAP has a certain relationship with the respiratory function of mechanically ventilated children with severe pneumonia, and has a good predictive value for the prognosis of the children.

Objective:To analyze the predictive value of serum Nesfatin-1 combined with the Status Epilepticus Severity Scale (STESS) score on the short-term prognosis of children with status epilepticus (SE).Methods:A clinical data of 145 children with SE who were admitted to the Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University, Henan Children′s Hospital, Zhengzhou Children′s Hospital, from January 2016 to January 2020 were analyzed retrospectively.After admission, the serum levels of Nesfatin-1 and the STESS score were measured.According to the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score at discharge, children with SE were divided into poor prognosis group (<5 scores) and good prognosis group (5 scores). Univariate and multivariate Logisitc regression analyses were performed to analyze influence of the serum Nesfatin-1 level and STESS score on the short-term prognosis of children with SE.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was depicted to evaluate the predictive value of serum Nesfatin-1 level combined with STESS score in the short-term prognosis of children with SE. Results:Twenty-five cases out of 145 (17.24%) children with SE were discharged with a GOS score of <5 (poor prognosis group), 120 cases were in the good prognosis group.In the poor prognosis group, the overall attack (88.00% vs.66.67%), attack time of SE > 1 h (76.00% vs.27.50%), admission to child intensive care unit(PICU) (76.00% vs.37.50%), implementation of endotracheal intubation (16.00% vs.5.00%), abnormal electroencephalogram(EEG) results (73.91% vs.41.03%), abnormal proportion of head imaging results (82.61% vs.29.49%), serum Nesfatin-1 level[(3.65±1.45) μg/L vs.(2.20±0.77) μg/L] and STESS score[(3.01±0.75) points vs.(1.80±0.60) points] were significantly higher than those in the good prognosis group (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the attack time of SE > 1 h, admission to PICU, abnormal EEG, abnormal proportion of head imaging results, serum Nesfatin-1 level and STESS score were independent risk factors for the poor short-term prognosis of children with SE ( OR=4.217, 3.456, 2.626, 4.109, 3.040 and 2.012, respectively, all P<0.001). The cut-off value of serum Nesfatin-1 level and STESS score was 3.01 μg/L and 2.38 points, respectively.The Youden index and AUC of the combination of serum Nesfatin-1 level and STESS scores were 0.736 and 0.921 (95% CI: 0.861-0.959), respectively, which were better than those of single detection of either serum Nesfatin-1 level [Youden index 0.447; AUC 0.795(95% CI: 0.720-0.858)] or STESS scores [Youden index 0.562; AUC 0.859(95% CI: 0.792-0.911)]. Conclusions:The abnormal increases in serum Nesfatin-1 level and STESS score are risk factors for poor prognosis of SE in children, and their combination has a high predictive value for the poor short-term prognosis.

Objective:To establish an animal model of trichloroethylene (TCE) -induced liver cancer following chronic exposure and to understand the changes in SET expression and histone acetylation, potentially serving as a molecular mechanism for TCE-induced hepatocarcinogenesis.Methods:B6C3 mice at 6 weeks were treated with TCE at a series of doses (500, 1000 and 2000 mg/kg) by gastric gavage, with corn oil used as the negative control and carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4) as the positive control. The serum and liver were sampled for the determination of biochemical indexes and pathological examination after 56 weeks of chemical exposure. Western blot was used to determine the levels of SET, H2AK9ac and HDAC1 expression. Results:The overall survival rate of the mice in various groups was 90.4% (141/156) , with no statistical difference between groups ( P>0.05) . Compared with the negative control, the organ coefficient for the liver in the high dose TCE group and the positive control group were significantly increased ( P<0.05) . The levels of ALT, AST, LDH and BUN in the all the three TCE groups and the positive control were significantly higher than those in the negative control ( P<0.01) . CREA levels in the 1000 and 2000 mg/kg TCE groups were significantly higher than those in the negative control ( P<0.05) . Statistical increases in the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma and the activities of ALT and AST in various doses of TCE-exposed mice as compared with the control were observed ( P<0.01) , in a dose-dependent manner. In the 1000 and 2000 mg/kg of TCE treated mice, levels of SET and H2AK9ac were increased ( P<0.05) , while HDAC1 was decreased ( P<0.05) , Compared to the tissue adjacent to liver cancer, in the 1000 and 2000 mg/kg TCE groups, the levels of SET were increased ( P<0.05) , while HDAC1 was decreased ( P<0.05) , and H2AK9ac increased in the 2000 mg/kg group. Conclusion:The hepatocellular carcinoma mouse model induced by chronic exposure to trichloroethylene was successfully established, with enhanced SET protein expression and H2AK9ac in the hepatic tissue.
