OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality based on the 10-year population-based multicenter prospective study. METHODS: A general population-based multicenter prospective study was conducted at four sites in rural China between 2013 and 2023. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the association between BMI and mortality. Stratified analyses were performed based on the individual characteristics of the participants. RESULTS: Overall, 19,107 participants with a sum of 163,095 person-years were included and 1,910 participants died. The underweight (< 18.5 kg/m ²) presented an increase in all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio [ aHR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.66-2.41), while overweight (≥ 24.0 to < 28.0 kg/m ²) and obesity (≥ 28.0 kg/m ²) presented a decrease with an aHR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.52-0.73) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.37-0.70), respectively. Overweight ( aHR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.86) and mild obesity ( aHR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87) had a positive impact on mortality in people older than 60 years. All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m ² ( aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION This study provides additional evidence that overweight and mild obesity may be inversely related to the risk of death in individuals older than 60 years. Therefore, it is essential to consider age differences when formulating health and weight management strategies.

Objective:This article aims to investigate the effect of optimized prehospital emergency intervention com-bined with green channel on prehospital delay and prognosis of patients with acute cor pulmonale(ACP).Methods:This randomized controlled study enrolled 116 ACP patients admitted in Hai'an People's Hospital between January 2021 and January 2023.They were divided into control group(n=58,routine emergency nursing procedure)and in-tervention group(n=58,optimized prehospital emergency intervention combined with green channel program).After 1-month intervention,therapeutic effect,emergency indicators,cardiopulmonary function,quality of life and incidence of complications were compared between two groups.Results:After 1-month,total effective rate of intervention group was significantly higher than that of control group(84.48％vs.62.07％,P=0.006).Com-pared with patients in control group,those in intervention group had significant lower emergency stay time[(19.80±1.90)min vs.(27.92±1.62)min],triage assessment time[(2.01±0.18)min vs.(2.99±0.17)min]and transport time[(33.69±1.90)min vs.(35.91±1.74)min],and significant higher left ventricular ejection frac-tion(LVEF)[(59.85±1.36)％vs.(46.97±1.79)％],forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1)[(3.66±0.17)L vs.(3.00±0.17)L],scores of nursing quality and each domain of Quality of Life Instruments for Chro-nic Diseases-Chronic Pulmonary Heart Disease(QLICD-CPHD)(P＜0.001 all).Incidence of complications in intervention group was significantly lower than that of control group(5.17％vs.17.24％,P=0.039).Conclusion:Optimized prehospital emergency intervention combined with green channel has significant clinical effect on ACP patients.It could reduce emergency,triage and transport time,improve nursing quality and quality of life,enhance cardiopulmonary function,and reduce the incidence of complications.

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 explore the impact of rehabilitation exercise intervention mode based on cardiac function classification on clinical effect and quality of life(QOL)in patients with chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods:A total of 160 CHF patients who visited our hospital from Dec 2021 to Jan 2023 were selected,and 154 cases were fi-nally enrolled.According to the random number table method,patients were divided into study group and control group with 77 cases in each group.Control group received routine nursing program,while the study group received rehabilitation exercise intervention based on cardiac function classification on the basis of control group,both groups were intervened for three months.Clinical total effective rate,and cardiopulmonary function,serum oxidative stress indicators and MLHFQ score before and after intervention were compared between two groups.Results:Total effective rates of study subgroups of class Ⅱ and Ⅲ were significantly higher than those of control group(class Ⅱ:100.00％vs.83.78％;class Ⅲ:97.37％vs.80.00％)(P＜0.05 both).Compared with control subgroup of classⅢ after intervention,there were significant rise in peak VO2[(16.98±2.03)ml·min-1·kg-1 vs.(18.61±2.41)ml·min-1·kg-1],LVEF[(41.73±4.53)％vs.(48.03±5.22)％]and 6MWD[(351.34±61.00)m vs.(391.53±64.42)m](P＜0.01 all);and significant reductions in LVEDd[(57.55±3.91)mm vs.(53.18±3.07)mm],LVESd[(35.90±2.91)mm vs.(30.50±2.67)mm],levels of LPO[(6.00±0.99)mg/L vs.(3.95±0.61)mg/L],MPO[(3.83±0.58)mg/L vs.(2.03±0.28)mg/L],and MLHFQ total score[(57.05±4.57)points vs.(45.29±3.94)points]in study subgroup of class Ⅲ(P=0.001 all).Compared with control subgroup of class Ⅱ after intervention,there were significant rise in peak VO2,LVEF and 6MWD,and significant reductions in LVEDd,LVESd,levels of LPO,MPO and MLHFQ score in study subgroup of class Ⅱ,P＜0.05 or＜0.01.There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of adverse events during follow-up between two groups(3.90％vs.6.49％,P=0.717).Conclusion:Rehabilitation exercise intervention based on cardiac function classifi-cation can significantly improve cardiopulmonary function,inhibit oxidative stress response in vivo and improve quality of life in CHF patients,which is worthy of promotion and application in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the changes in the serum levels of oxidized phospholipids(OxPLs)and endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS)and their association with coronary artery disease(CAL)in children in the acute stage of Kawasaki disease(KD),as well as the clinical significance of OxPLs and eNOS.Methods A prospective study was conducted on 95 children in the acute stage of KD(KD group).According to the presence of absence of CAL,the KD group was further divided into a CAL subgroup and a non-CAL(NCAL)subgroup.Thirty children with fever due to lower respiratory tract infection were enrolled as the fever group.Thirty healthy children who underwent physical examination were enrolled as the healthy control group.The above groups were compared in terms of general information and serum levels of OxPLs,eNOS and other laboratory indexes,and the correlation between OxPLs level and eNOS level was analyzed.Results The KD group had a significantly higher level of OxPLs and a significantly lower level of eNOS compared with the fever group and the healthy control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the children with KD had a significantly decreased OxPLs level and a significantly increased eNOS level(P<0.05).Compared with the NCAL subgroup,the CAL subgroup had a significantly higher level of OxPLs and a significantly lower level of eNOS(P<0.05).Among the children of KD,the level of OxPLs was negatively correlated with that of eNOS(rs=-0.353,P<0.05).Conclusions Serum OxPLs and eNOS in the acute stage of KD may be involved in the development of CAL in children with KD,and therefore,they may be used as the biomarkers to predict CAL in these children.

Objective To analyze the distribution and antimicrobial resistance of pathogens from wounds of burned patients,providing reference for the rational use of antimicrobial agents and healthcare-associated infection(HAI)prevention and control.Methods Clinical data of burned patients admitted to a tertiary first-class hospital from Ja-nuary 2020 to December 2022 were analyzed retrospectively,pathogens in the wound was cultured,identified,and performed antimicrobial susceptibility analysis.Results From 2020 to 2022,a total of 588 burned patients were ad-mitted,734 strains of pathogens were detected,including 415 strains(56.54％)of Gram-negative bacteria,306 strains(41.69％)of Gram-positive bacteria,and 13(1.77％)strains of fungi.The top 5 pathogens were Staphy-lococcus aureus,Escherichia coli,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Klebsiella pneumoniae,and Enterobacter cloacae.Staphylococcus aureus had higher resistance rates(93.02％-97.37％)to penicillin G,resistance rate to oxacillin increased from 11.63％to 21.92％.Pseudomonas aeruginosa mainly exhibited resistance to ticarcillin/clavulanic acid,aztreonam,and levofloxacin,resistance rates to imipenem and meropenem were 15.00％-38.10％and 10.00％-33.33％,respectively.Susceptibility of Enterobacterales bacteria to cephalosporins enhanced with the increased of cephalosporin generations,and exhibited higher resistance to commonly used antimicrobial agents.Conclusion Over the past three years,there has been no significant change in the detection of major pathogens and antimicrobial resistance in wounds of burned patients in this hospital.Antimicrobial resistance of Staphylococcus aureus and En-terobacterales is relatively severe,and it is necessary to carry out surveillance on pathogens from burn wounds in corresponding areas.
