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 report the results of bacterial resistant investigation collaborative system（BRICS）on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2023，and provide reference for clinical tretment of bloodstream infections and prevention and control of bacterial resistance.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of BRICS were collected during January 2023 to December 2023. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，11 492 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 60 hospitals，of which 10 098（87.9%）were Enterobacterales and 1 394（12.1%）were non-fermentative bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（50.0%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（26.1%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（5.1%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（5.0%）and Enterobacter cloacae complex（4.1%）. The ESBL-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirablilis were 46.8%（2 685/5 741），18.3%（549/2 999）and 44.0%（77/175），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（76/5 741）and 15.0%（450/2 999）；32.9%（25/76）and 78.0%（351/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. 94.7%（72/76）and 90.2%（406/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to aztreonam/avibactam combination. Furthermore，57.9%（44/76）and 79.1%（356/450）were sensitive to imipenem/relebactam combination. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 64.6%（370/573），while more than 80.0% of CRAB complex was sensitive to tigecycline，eravacycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 17.0%（99/581）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of important Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions in China，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA and CRAB complex（ χ2=10.6，28.6，10.8 and 19.3， P<0.05）. The prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli， CREC，CRAB complex and CRKP were higher in provincial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=12.5，9.8，12.7 and 57.8，all P<0.01）. Conclusions:Gram-negative bacteria are the main pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of Klebsiella pneumoniae increases continuously with time. CRKP infection shows a slow upward trend，CREC infecton maintains a low prevalence level，and CRAB complex infection continues to exhibit a high prevalence rate. The composition and resistance patterns of pathogens causing bloodstream infections vary to some extent across different regions and levels of hospitals in China.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of patients with extranasal NK/T-cell lymphoma(NKTCL).Methods:The clinical data of 138 patients with NKTCL diagnosed in 10 medical centers of Huaihai Lymphoma Working Group from June 2015 to April 2021 were collected and analyzed retrospectively.The differences in clinicopathological characteristics of patients with different involvement and efficacy of pegaspargase regimen were compared,as well as perform survival analysis.Results:A total of 138 extranasal NKTCL patients were included,with a median age of 46 years,and the ratio of males to females was approximately 2∶1.There were 39 patients with gastrointestinal involvement,32 patients with oropharyngeal involvement,17 patients with skin involvement,11 patients with lymph node involvement,11 patients with orbital involvement,and 28 patients with other parts involvement.Patients with skin involvement had a higher proportion of advanced disease and a lower proportion of CD56 positive rate compared to those with oropharyngeal involvement.Among the patients with gastrointestinal involvement,the survival rate of patients who received pegaspargase regimen was significantly higher than those who were treated without pegaspargase(P＜0.01).Multivariate analysis showed that serum creatinine was an independent prognostic factor for patients with skin involvement(HR=1.027,95％CI:1.001-1.054,P=0.040),ECOG PS and EBV DNA were independent prognostic factors for patients with gastrointestinal involvement(HR=2.635,95％CI:1.096-6.338,P=0.030;HR=4.772,95％CI:1.092-20.854,P=0.038),and ECOG PS and CA stage were independent prognostic factors for patients with oropharyngeal involvement(HR=13.875,95％CI:2.517-76.496,P=0.002;HR=20.261,95％CI:2.466-166.470,P=0.005).Conclusion:The clinicopathological characteristics of extranasal NKTCL patients with different sites of involvement are vary,and effective individualized treatment need to be further explored.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of a self-designed assistant device for distal ulnar osteotomy and reduction in the surgical treatment of ulnar impaction syndrome.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed to study the clinical data from the 27 patients with ulnar impaction syndrome who had been treated by distal ulnar shortening and fixation with 2 screws between January 2022 and August 2024 at Department of Hand and Foot Surgery,Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University. The cohort included 6 males and 21 females, with 13 left and 14 right sides affected and a mean age of (40.3±10.8) years (range: from 17 to 59 years). Based on their different assistant methods in osteotomy, the patients were divided into group A (15 cases) subjected to conventional freehand osteotomy and group B (12 cases) subjected to distal ulnar osteotomy and reduction assisted by our self-designed assistant device. Comparisons were made between the 2 groups regarding operative time, bone healing time, Mayo wrist function score at postoperative 16 weeks, number of the patients returning to their original occupations and complications.Results:There were no significant dif- ferences in the baseline characteristics between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up postoperatively for (27.1±11.1) weeks (range: from 16 to 50 weeks). In group B, the operative time [50.0 (50.0, 62.5) min] and bone healing time [6.5 (6.0, 7.0) weeks] were significantly shorter than those in group A [80.0 (67.5, 92.5) min and 7.5 (6.8, 9.0) weeks] ( P<0.05). At postoperative 16 weeks, the Mayo wrist function score was 90.0 (85.0, 96.8) points for group A and 92.5 (85.0, 98.8) points for group B, showing no significant difference ( P>0.05). Five patients in group A and 4 ones in group B returned to their original work status, showing no significant difference either ( P>0.05). One case of non-union occurred in group A while no complication occurred in group B, demonstrating no significant difference either ( P>0.05). Conclusion:In the surgical treatment of ulnar impaction syndrome, compared with conventional freehand osteotomy, application of our self-designed assistant device for distal ulnar osteotomy and reduction is simple, less invasive, and comparable in functional recovery of the wrist, but superior in operative time and bone healing time.

Aim To explore the effects of Kui Jie Kang(KJK)on modulating the farnesoid X receptor(FXR)pathway in the gut microbiota and bile acid metabolism in mice with ulcerative colitis(UC).Methods Mice were subjected to DSS-induced UC and randomly as-signed to the control(CON),model(MOD),and two KJK-dosed groups(KJK.H at 12.8 g·kg-1,KJK.L at 3.2 g·kg-1).Mouse body weight was recorded,and disease activity index(DAI)was scored.The his-topathological changes in colonic tissue were observed via HE staining,and the number of goblet cells and mucosal layer repair were assessed using PAS and Al-cian blue staining.Bile acid content in feces was measured using LC-MS/MS,gut microbiota composition was analyzed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing,and the expression of FXR target genes and related proteins was detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot.Results KJK significantly ameliorated colonic shortening,de-creased disease activity index in UC mice,reduced his-topathological scores,increased the number of goblet cells and mucus secretion,altered the levels of primary and secondary bile acids,and increased the relative a-bundance of beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus.Additionally,it significantly upregulated the expression of FXR and FGF15 mRNA and protein in colonic tissue and downregulated the expression of hepatic CYP7A1 mRNA,and the correlation analysis in this study clearly revealed a significant correlation between bile acid me-tabolism disorders and gut microbiota imbalance in UC.Conclusion KJK activates the intestinal FXR-FGF15-CYP7A1 pathway,thereby regulating bile acid metabolism and restoring gut microbiota balance,which may be key to its improvement of UC.

To guide clinical blood transfusion practices for pediatric patients, the National Health Commission has issued the health standard "Guideline for pediatric transfusion" (WS/T 795-2022). Blood transfusion is one of the most commonly used supportive treatments for children with hematological diseases. This guideline provides guidance and recommendations for blood transfusions in children with aplastic anemia, thalassemia, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, acute leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, immune thrombocytopenic purpura, and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. This article presents the evidence and interpretation of the blood transfusion provisions for children with hematological diseases in the "Guideline for pediatric transfusion", aiming to assist in the understanding and implementing the blood transfusion section of this guideline.
