ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanisms by which Shangxia Liangji pills improve cognitive function in Alzheimer's disease （AD） mice based on the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt） pathway， aiming to provide experimental evidence for its clinical use in AD treatment. MethodsFifty APP/PS1 double-transgenic mice were randomly divided into a model group， Shangxia Liangji pills low-dose group， medium-dose group， high-dose group， and donepezil hydrochloride group， with 10 mice in each group. Additionally， 10 C57BL/6 mice of the same genetic background were assigned to the normal group. Cognitive function was assessed using the Morris water maze and novel object recognition tests. Hippocampal pathological changes were observed using transmission electron microscopy and Nissl staining. Neuroinflammation in hippocampal tissue was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Protein expression levels of PI3K/Akt pathway-related proteins， postsynaptic density protein 95 （PSD95）， and amyloid precursor protein （APP） in hippocampal tissue were measured by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group exhibited significantly increased total swimming distance and escape latency， significantly reduced number of platform crossings （P<0.01）， and a decreased recognition index （P<0.01）. Marked neuronal apoptosis was observed in the hippocampal region， with a marked reduction in the number of neurons in the CA3 region （P<0.01）. Levels of interleukin-6 （IL-6）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in hippocampal tissue were significantly elevated （P<0.01）. APP expression in hippocampal tissue was markedly upregulated （P<0.01）， while PSD95， p-PI3K/PI3K， and p-Akt/Akt protein expression were significantly downregulated （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the Shangxia Liangji pills high-dose group showed significantly reduced total swimming distance and escape latency， significantly increased number of platform crossings （P<0.01）， and an elevated recognition index （P<0.01）. Hippocampal neuronal apoptosis was alleviated， with a significant increase in the number of neurons in the CA3 region （P<0.01）. Levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. APP expression was downregulated （P<0.05）， while PSD95， p-PI3K/PI3K， and p-Akt/Akt protein expression were significantly upregulated （P<0.01）. ConclusionShangxia Liangji pills may improve cognitive function in AD mice by modulating the PI3K/Akt pathway， thereby reducing neuroinflammation and alleviating neuronal and synaptic injury.

ObjectiveTo analyze the trend of lung cancer incidence in Fenghua District, Ningbo City of Zhejiang Province from 2009 to 2023, and to estimate the age-period- cohort effects of incidence rate, so as to provide scientific basis for the formulation of lung cancer prevention and control measures in Fenghua District. MethodsJoinpoint software was utilized to analyze the trends and calculate the average annual percentage change (AAPC) of lung cancer incidence based on the tumor incidence surveillance data from Fenghua District, 2009‒2023. The age-period-cohort (APC) model for lung cancer incidence was analyzed using STATA 17.0 software, and net drift and local drift of lung cancer incidence rates were analyzed using online analytical tools. ResultsThe incidence of lung cancer in Fenghua District showed an overall upward trend from 2009 to 2023, with the standardized incidence rate increasing from 45.05/100 000 in 2009 to 108.20/100 000 in 2023(AAPC=7.05%, P<0.05). The increase in the standardized incidence rate for females (AAPC=12.72%, P<0.05) was higher than that for males (AAPC=2.97%, P<0.05). The overall net drift in lung cancer incidence for residents of Fenghua District was 11.71%, with the net drift for females (16.54%) being higher than that for males (6.64%). The local drift in lung cancer incidence among different age groups ranged from -3.37% to 35.18%. The results of APC model showed that the risk of lung cancer incidence increased and then decreased with age, with the highest age effect coefficient observed in the 65‒69 years age group at 1.08. The period effect showed a gradually increasing trend in lung cancer incidence risk with the progression of time, and the period effect coefficient in 2019‒2023 (0.46) was higher than that in 2009‒2013 (-0.39), increasing by 217.95%. The cohort effect coefficient showed a trend of first decreasing and then increasing with the expansion of the birth cohort, in which the lowest cohort effect coefficient was -1.07 observed in the birth cohort of 1964‒1968 and the highest cohort effect coefficient was 1.77 in the birth cohort of 1924‒1928. ConclusionThe incidence of lung cancer in Fenghua District shows an upward trend from 2009 to 2023, with a higher increase in incidence rates among females than that in males. The risk of lung cancer incidence exists a trend of increasing and then decreasing with age growth. With the progression of time, the risk of lung cancer incidence shows a gradually increasing trend. However, with the expansion the birth cohort, the risk of lung cancer incidence demonstrates a trend of first decreasing and then increasing.

ObjectiveThis study aims to investigate the dynamic changes in general body parameters, blood glucose, and blood lipid profiles in obese cynomolgus monkeys, exploring the correlations among these parameters and providing a reference for research on the obese cynomolgus monkey model. Methods30 normal male cynomolgus monkeys aged 5 - 17 years old (with body mass index < 35 kg/m² and glycated hemoglobin content < 4.50%) and 99 spontaneously obese male cynomolgus monkeys (with body mass index ≥35 kg/m² and glycated hemoglobin content < 4.50%) were selected. Over a period of three years, their abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, and four blood lipid indicators were monitored. The correlations between each indicator were analyzed using repeated measurement ANOVA, simple linear regression, and multiple linear regression correlation analysis method. Results Compared to the control group, the obese group exhibited significantly higher levels of abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, body mass index, and triglyceride (P＜0.05). In the control group, skinfold thickness increased annually, while other indicators remained stable. Compared with the first year, the obese group showed significantly increased abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, body mass index, triglyceride, and fasting blood glucose in the second year(P＜0.05), with this increasing trend persisting in the third year (P＜0.05). In the control group, the obesity incidence rates in the second and third years were 16.67% and 23.33%, respectively, while the prevalence of diabetes remained at 16.67%. In the obese group, the diabetes incidence rates were 29.29% and 44.44% in years 2 and 3, respectively. Among the 11-13 year age group, the incidence rates were 36.36% and 44.68%, while for the group older than 13 years, the rates were 28.13% and 51.35%. Correlation analysis revealed significant associations (P＜0.05) between fasting blood glucose and age, abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, and triglyceride in the diabetic monkeys. Conclusion Long-term obesity can lead to the increases in general physical indicators and fasting blood glucose levels in cynomolgus monkeys, and an increase in the incidence of diabetes. In diabetic cynomolgus monkeys caused by obesity, there is a high correlation between their fasting blood glucose and age, weight, abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, and triglyceride levels, which is of some significance for predicting the occurrence of spontaneous diabetes.

As people’s attention to health continues to increase, the market demand for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is growing steadily. The quality and safety of Chinese medicinal materials have attracted unprecedented social attention. In particular, the issue of exogenous harmful residue pollution in TCM has become a hot topic of concern for both regulatory authorities and society.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance of clinical isolates from elderly patients(≥65 years)in major medical institutions across China.Methods Bacterial strains were isolated from elderly patients in 52 hospitals participating in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program during the period from 2015 to 2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility test was carried out by disk diffusion method and automated systems according to the same CHINET protocol.The data were interpreted in accordance with the breakpoints recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)in 2021.Results A total of 514 715 nonduplicate clinical isolates were collected from elderly patients in 52 hospitals from January 1,2015 to December 31,2021.The number of isolates accounted for 34.3％of the total number of clinical isolates from all patients.Overall,21.8％of the 514 715 strains were gram-positive bacteria,and 78.2％were gram-negative bacteria.Majority(90.9％)of the strains were isolated from inpatients.About 42.9％of the strains were isolated from respiratory specimens,and 22.9％were isolated from urine.More than half(60.7％)of the strains were isolated from male patients,and 39.3％isolated from females.About 51.1％of the strains were isolated from patients aged 65-＜75 years.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains(MRSA)was 38.8％in 32 190 strains of Staphylococcus aureus.No vancomycin-or linezolid-resistant strains were found.The resistance rate of E.faecalis to most antibiotics was significantly lower than that of Enterococcus faecium,but a few vancomycin-resistant strains(0.2％,1.5％)and linezolid-resistant strains(3.4％,0.3％)were found in E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible S.pneumoniae(PSSP),penicillin-intermediate S.pneumoniae(PISP),and penicillin-resistant S.pneumoniae(PRSP)was 94.3％,4.0％,and 1.7％in nonmeningitis S.pneumoniae isolates.The resistance rates of Klebsiella spp.(Klebsiella pneumoniae 93.2％)to imipenem and meropenem were 20.9％and 22.3％,respectively.Other Enterobacterales species were highly sensitive to carbapenem antibiotics.Only 1.7％-7.8％of other Enterobacterales strains were resistant to carbapenems.The resistance rates of Acinetobacter spp.(Acinetobacter baumannii 90.6％)to imipenem and meropenem were 68.4％and 70.6％respectively,while 28.5％and 24.3％of P.aeruginosa strains were resistant to imipenem and meropenem,respectively.Conclusions The number of clinical isolates from elderly patients is increasing year by year,especially in the 65-＜75 age group.Respiratory tract isolates were more prevalent in male elderly patients,and urinary tract isolates were more prevalent in female elderly patients.Klebsiella isolates were increasingly resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents,especially carbapenems.Antimicrobial resistance surveillance is helpful for accurate empirical antimicrobial therapy in elderly patients.

Objective To explore the short-term efficacy and safety of AngioJet mechanical thrombus removal,large lumen cathe-ter thrombus aspiration,and simple catheter-directed thrombolysis(CDT)for the treatment of acute deep venous thrombosis(DVT)of lower extremity.Methods A total of 75 patients with acute lower extremity DVT received interventional therapy were analyzed retrospectively,including 22 patients in AngioJet mechanical thrombus removal(group A),32 patients in large lumen catheter thrombus aspiration(group B),and 21 patients in simple CDT(group C).The short-term efficacy,health economics index,laboratory index and complications of the three groups were compared.Results The success rate of the three groups was 100％.Group A had superior thrombus clearance rates,lower dosages of urokinase,shorter thrombolysis durations,and shorter hospital stays compared to groups B and C.However,the hospitalization costs in group A were significantly higher than those in groups B and C,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).No significant renal dysfunction and severe complications were observed in the three groups.Post-operative creatinine levels in group A were higher than those in groups B and C,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Both groups A and B experienced significant decreases in hematocrit postoperatively,and the absolute decrease and percentage decrease in hematocrit in group A were significantly greater than those in group C,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared to large lumen catheter thrombus aspiration and simple CDT treatment,AngioJet mechanical thrombus removal demonstrates higher efficiency in thrombus clearance rate but is associated with higher costs and risks of renal dysfunction.Postoperative care should focus on protecting renal function.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical risk factors and prognosis of perioperative myocardial injury(MINS)in non-cardiac surgery patients admitted to the intensive care unit(ICU).Methods A total of 478 postoperative patients admitted to the Department of Intensive Medicine,Minhang Hospital,Fudan University from Jan 2020 to Dec 2023 were selected.They were divided into MINS group(n=302)and normal group(n=176)based on whether myocardial injury occurred within 7 days after surgery.The differences in clinical characteristics between the two groups were compared,and risk factors for perioperative myocardial injury were identified.Risk factors for mortality in the MINS group were analyzed with 30-day mortality as the clinical endpoint.Results The prevalence of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(Apache Ⅱ)score,coronary artery disease,and chronic kidney disease were all higher in the MINS group than those in the normal group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The proportion of emergency surgeries,co-infection,and perioperative hypotension were significantly different between the MINS group and the normal group(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that chronic kidney disease,emergency surgery,co-infection,and intraoperative and postoperative hypotension were risk factors for MINS occurrence.Prognostic analysis indicated that perioperative hypotension was a risk factor for 30-day mortality in MINS patients.Conclusion MINS is closely associated with patients'underlying conditions,timing of surgery,and perioperative hypotension status,and especially perioperative hypotension affects the final outcomes.

Objective To compare the effects of main artery clamping(MAC)and selective artery clamping(SAC)strategies on postoperative renal function in patients with chronic renal insufficiency undergoing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy.Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 231 patients with preoperative chronic renal insufficiency[eGFR<90 mL/(min·1.73 m2)with renal injury markers or eGFR<60 mL/(min·1.73 m2)]who underwent robot-assisted partial nephrectomy in the Department of Urology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from February 2018 to February 2024.According to intraoperative renal artery clamping strategy,they were divided into a MAC group(n=129)and a SAC group(n=102).Preoperatively,individualized renal artery clamping strategies were developed using a machine learning-based multimodal holographic 3-D reconstruction technique.Serum creatinine(Scr)level was measured at 3 d and 3 months after surgery,and estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)was calculated using the chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration equation(CKD-EPI)formula.Renal dynamic imaging with 99mTc-DTPA or 99mTc-MAG3 was used to assess the GFR of the affected kidney.Results At 3 d after surgery,the decrease in GFR of the affected kidney was significantly lower[(8.3±7.7)vs(16.0±10.2)mL/(min·1.73 m2),95%CI:-10.2～-5.2,P<0.001]in the SAC group than the MAC group.Scr increment analysis showed that the SAC group exhibited notably lower Scr increase[8.2(2.5,18.7)vs 15.5(5.8,28.3)μmol/L,95%CI:-12.3～-1.8,P=0.027],and milder eGFR decline[3.0(0.5,7.8)vs 7.5(2.0,14.3)mL/(min·1.73 m2),95%CI:-6.2～-0.8,P=0.015].And,in 3 months after surgery,the SAC group had lower Scr level[(89.2±23.1)vs(95.3±22.1)μmol/L,95%CI:-11.9～-0.3,P=0.042],and higher GFR of the affected kidney[(33.5±10.5)vs(26.1±10.9)mL/(min·1.73 m2),95%CI:4.6～10.2,P<0.001].Conclusion For patients with chronic renal insufficiency undergoing robot-assisted partial nephrectomy,SAC strategy is superior to MAC strategy in protecting postoperative renal function without increasing surgical risk.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of clinically isolated Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis in hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021,and provide evidence for rational use of antimicrobial agents.Methods Data of H.influenzae and M.catarrhalis strains isolated from 2015 to 2021 in CHINET program were collected for analysis,and antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by disc diffusion method or automated systems according to the uniform protocol of CHINET.The results were interpreted according to the CLSI breakpoints in 2022.Beta-lactamases was detected by using nitrocefin disk.Results From 2015 to 2021,a total of 43 642 strains of Haemophilus species were isolated,accounting for 2.91％of the total clinical isolates and 4.07％of Gram-negative bacteria in CHINET program.Among the 40 437 strains of H.influenzae,66.89％were isolated from children and 33.11％were isolated from adults.More than 90％of the H.influenzae strains were isolated from respiratory tract specimens.The prevalence of β-lactamase was 53.79％in H.influenzae strains.The H.influenzae strains isolated from children showed higher resistance rate than the strains isolated from adults.Overall,779 strains of H.influenzae did not produce β-lactamase but were resistant to ampicillin(BLNAR).Beta-lactamase-producing strains showed significantly higher resistance rates to these antimicrobial agents than the β-lactamase-nonproducing strains.Of the 16 191 M.catarrhalis strains,80.06％were isolated from children and 19.94％isolated from adults.M.catarrhalis strains were mostly susceptible to both amoxicillin-clavulanic acid and cefuroxime,evidenced by resistance rate lower than 2.0％.Conclusions The emergence of antibiotic-resistant H.influenzae due to β-lactamase production poses a challenge for clinical anti-infective treatment.Therefore,it is very important to implement antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae and guide rational antibiotic use.All local clinical microbiology laboratories should actively improve antibiotic susceptibility testing and strengthen antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae.
