In this study,an ON/OFF type micro-valve with a sandwich(glass-silicon-glass)structure was designed and fabricated based on the micro-electro-mechanical system(MEMS)technique.The deformable membrane of this micro-valve was prepared on the silicon on insulator(SOI)substrate and sealed using Si-Si bonding and anodic bonding methods.The micro-valve had high-temperature stability and was suitable for integration with other gas chromatography components.The deformable membrane with a thickness of 10 μm was processed on the top silicon of the SOI substrate.The flow control of the micro-valve could be achieved by changing the driving pressure applied to the deformable membrane to deform it.Compared with polymer membranes,the deformable membrane prepared on the top layer silicon of SOI had better temperature stability and could be released using the deep reactive ion etching technique after silicon-silicon bonding,avoiding deformation during the preparation process.In addition,due to the small gap between the membrane and the inlet/outlet holes,the dead volume of the microvalve was very small.The test results indicated that the micro-valve achieved flow control and ON/OFF functions with good repeatability.

A monolithic integrated gas chromatography chip,consisting of a micro gas chromatography column(μGCC)and a micro helium discharge ionization detector(μHDID)was proposed.The chip was fabricated using micro electromechanical system(MEMS)technique,and its sensitivity was improved from two aspects.On one hand,open tubular column was selected as the separation device,and the auxiliary helium channel width of μHDID was modulated based on the microchannel width of the μGCC to match the flow rates of μHDID and μGCC.On the other hand,the electrode structure inside the μHDID collection zone was optimized,a bias electrode group around the collection electrode was constructed,and the ion collection efficiency was improved.After coating HKUST-1 as the stationary phase,the monolithic integrated gas chromatography chip could achieve baseline separation and detection of light hydrocarbon gas mixture(methane,ethane,propane,andn-butane),with a detection limit for propane as low as 25 pg.The chip could carried out test under temperature-programmed conditions,with a resolution of 9.24 for ethane and propane.

A micro gas chromatographic column with mesoporous surface micro column array prepared by anodization method was proposed.A porous support layer with a characteristic pore size of about 30 nm inside the chromatographic column was prepared in situ using anodization method,and a uniform alumina stationary phase was deposited on the mesoporous support layer using atom layer deposition(ALD)technique.The existence of a mesoporous support layer increased surface area of the chromatographic column,thereby increasing the total amount of stationary phase loading and enhancing column capacity,which facilitated chromatographic separation.The test results showed that the porous support layer significantly reduced the longitudinal molecular diffusion and mass transfer resistance of the micro gas chromatographic column,and significantly increased the number of theoretical plates(n-nonane increased by 290.2%).Furthermore,column efficiency of the chromatographic column was less affected by flow rate,which was conducive to rapid separation of heavy hydrocarbon mixtures.

Objective To examine the changing prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Burkholderia cepacia in 52 hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were collected from 52 hospitals between January 1,2015 and December 31,2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility of the strains was tested using Kirby-Bauer method or automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems according to a unified protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released in the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)guidelines(2023 edition).Results A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were isolated from all age groups,especially elderly patients.The proportion was 11.1％(1 032 strains)in children,significantly lower than the proportion in adults.About half(46.5％,4 310/9 261)of the strains were isolated from patients at least 60 years old and 42.3％(3 919/9 261)of the strains were isolated from young adults.Most isolates(71.1％)were isolated from sputum and respiratory secretions,followed by urine(10.7％)and blood samples(8.1％).B.cepacia isolates were highly susceptible to the five antimicrobial agents recommended in the CLSI M100 document(33rd edition,2023).B.cepacia isolates showed relatively higher resistance rates to meropenem and levofloxacin.However,the resistance rates to ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,and minocycline remained below 8.1％.The percentage of B.cepacia strains resistant to levofloxacin was the highest compared to other antibiotics in any of the three age groups(from 12.4％in the patients＜18 years old to 20.6％in the patients aged 60 years or older).Conclusions B.cepacia is one of the clinically important non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria.Accurate and timely reporting of antimicrobial susceptibility test results and ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance are helpful for rational prescription of antimicrobial agents and proper prevention and control of nosocomial infections.

Objective To summarize the changing prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacterales based on the data of CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 2015 to 2021 for improving antimicrobial treatment in clinical practice.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using a commercial automated susceptibility testing system according to the unified CHINET protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints of the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)M100 31st ed in 2021.Results Over the seven-year period(2015-2021),the overall prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE)was 9.43％(62 342/661 235).The prevalence of CRE strains in Klebsiella pneumoniae,Citrobacter freundii,and Enterobacter cloacae was 22.38％,9.73％,and 8.47％,respectively.The prevalence of CRE strains in Escherichia coli was 1.99％.A few CRE strains were also identified in Salmonella and Shigella.The CRE strains were mainly isolated from respiratory specimens(44.23±2.80)％,followed by blood(20.88±3.40)％and urine(18.40±3.45)％.Intensive care units(ICUs)were the major source of the CRE strains(27.43±5.20)％.CRE strains were resistant to all the β-lactam antibiotics tested and most non-β-lactam antimicrobial agents.The CRE strains were relatively susceptible to tigecycline and polymyxins with low resistance rates.Conclusions The prevalence of CRE strains was increasing from 2015 to 2021.CRE strains were highly resistant to most of the antibacterial drugs used in clinical practice.Clinicians should prescribe antimicrobial agents rationally.Hospitals should strengthen antibiotic stewardship in key clinical settings such as ICUs,and take effective infection control measures to curb CRE outbreak and epidemic in hospitals.

Objective To characterize the changing species distribution and antibiotic resistance profiles of respiratory isolates in hospitals participating in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 2015 to 2021.Methods Commercial automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems and disk diffusion method were used to test the susceptibility of respiratory bacterial isolates to antimicrobial agents following the standardized technical protocol established by the CHINET program.Results A total of 589 746 respiratory isolates were collected from 2015 to 2021.Overall,82.6％of the isolates were Gram-negative bacteria and 17.4％were Gram-positive bacteria.The bacterial isolates from outpatients and inpatients accounted for(6.0±0.9)％and(94.0±0.1)％,respectively.The top microorganisms were Klebsiella spp.,Acinetobacter spp.,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Staphylococcus aureus,Haemophilus spp.,Stenotrophomonas maltophilia,Escherichia coli,and Streptococcus pneumoniae.Each microorganism was isolated from significantly more males than from females(P＜0.05).The overall prevalence of methicillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA)was 39.9％.The prevalence of penicillin-resistant S.pneumoniae was 1.4％.The prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase(ESBL)-producing E.coli and K.pneumoniae was 67.8％and 41.3％,respectively.The overall prevalence of carbapenem-resistant E.coli,K.pneumoniae,Enterobacter cloacae,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and Acinetobacter baumannii was 3.7％,20.8％,9.4％,29.8％,and 73.3％,respectively.The prevalence of β-lactamase was 96.1％in Moraxella catarrhalis and 60.0％in Haemophilus influenzae.The H.influenzae isolates from children(＜18 years)showed significantly higher resistance rates to β-lactam antibiotics than the isolates from adults(P＜0.05).Conclusions Gram-negative bacteria are still predominant in respiratory isolates associated with serious antibiotic resistance.Antimicrobial resistance surveillance should be strengthened in clinical practice to support accurate etiological diagnosis and appropriate antimicrobial therapy based on antimicrobial susceptibility testing results.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective:To relate the changes in electroencephalography (EEG) signals after a spinal cord injury (SCI) with functional independence.Methods:The EEG data describing ninety SCI patients in both open and closed eye states were compared with those collected from 45 healthy counterparts. The SCI patients′ EEG data were correlated with their spinal cord independence measure (SCIM) scores at corresponding time points. The SCI patients were divided into a cervical SCI group (SCI-C group) and a non-cervical SCI group (SCI-NC group), with 45 cases in each group. The difference in EEG data between them and its correlation with the SCIM scores were also compared and analyzed.Results:In the eyes-open state, the EEG power in the frontal, central, temporal, and right occipital regions of the SCI group was lower than among the control group, on average. There were significant differences in the δ and θ low-frequency bands. The α1 band power in the frontal and right parietal regions was significantly higher in the SCI group, on average. With the eyes closed the δ band power in the right prefrontal, frontal, left central, and temporal regions of the SCI group was lower than among the control group, while the α1 band power in the right prefrontal, frontal, central, and parietal regions was significantly higher. The reactivity to eye opening of the α1 band in the right prefrontal, frontal, central, parietal, and temporal regions was less in the SCI patients compared to healthy subjects. Among the SCI patients, higher EEG power in the β2 band of the right frontal lobe and the α2 and β bands of the right temporal lobe was significantly positively correlated with higher SCIM scores during the eyes-open measurements. And the higher EEG power in the α2 band of the prefrontal and frontal lobes, the β2 band of the frontal lobe, the α2 band of the right central region, the α2 and β bands of the temporal lobe, and the α2 and β2 bands of the occipital lobe was significantly positively correlated with higher SCIM scores during the eyes-closed state. The subgroup analysis showed that the δ band power in the left temporal lobe and the α2 band power in the parietal lobe were lower among the SCI-C compared with the SCI-NC patients in the eyes-open state. With the eyes closed, the δ band power in the left frontal, left parietal, and left temporal lobes and the α2 band power in the frontal, central, parietal, temporal, and right occipital lobes was significantly lower in the SCI-C group compared to the SCI-NC group, on average. The reactivity to eye opening of the δ band in the temporal lobe, the α2 band in the left prefrontal, frontal, central, parietal, temporal, and right occipital lobes, and the β2 band in the right parietal and left occipital lobes was less in the SCI-C group than in the SCI-NC group ( P≤0.05). Among the SCI-C patients, higher EEG power in the β1 and β2 bands of the right temporal lobe with the eyes open was significantly positively correlated with higher SCIM scores. With the eyes closed, higher EEG power in the α2 and β1 bands of the right prefrontal lobe was significantly positively correlated with higher SCIM scores. Among the SCI-NC patients, higher EEG power in the δ band of the prefrontal lobe, the β1 and β2 bands of the left prefrontal lobe, and the δ bands of the frontal, central, right parietal, and right temporal lobes during the eyes open measurements was significantly positively correlated with higher SCIM scores. Conclusions:The EEG power of cervical and non-cervical SCI patients shows characteristic changes which correlate with their functional independence.

The importance scores of all indicators were obtained through expert consultation from September to October 2021. Based on the game theory, the subjective and objective weighting methods were integrated to quantify the combinatorial optimization weight assignment of those indicators, in which the subjective weighting was calculated by proportional distribution method, and the objective weighting was obtained by entropy weight method.Results:The subjective weight assignments of the first-level indicators “service conditions”“service process” and “service outcome”were 0.332 2, 0.338 9, and 0.328 9, respectively; the objective weight assignments of the above indicators were 0.332 2, 0.338 9 and 0.328 9, respectively; the combinatorial optimization weight assignment of those indicators were 0.332 2, 0.338 9, and 0.328 9, respectively. Among the second-level indicators, the combination optimization weight coefficients of the top 3 important indicators “patient family evaluation”(1.3),“emergency configuration”(1.4), and“operation process”(2.2) were 0.198 4, 0.198 4 and 0.170 8, respectively. And among the third-level indicators, the combination optimization weight coefficients of the top 5 important indicators“emergency plan”(1.4.1), “humanistic care”(2.2.6), “first aid supplies”(1.4.2), “evaluation of potential resources”(1.3.4), and “means of home visit transportation”(1.2.1) were 0.124 7, 0.075 0, 0.073 8, 0.066 5 and 0.052 7, respectively.Conclusion:The study has successfully conducted the optimization weight assignment of home care service quality indicators for the disabled elderly in Beijing, which indicates that the service conditions and service process are crucial to the quality of service.

Objective:To develop an indicator system for defining the health services provided by family doctors within the "Healthy Subdistrict" initiative in China.Methods:An initial set of indicators was developed through literature review and qualitative research, followed by the design of an expert consultation questionnaire. Twenty-one experts with extensive experience in community family doctor services in Beijing were selected. Two rounds of Delphi consultations were conducted via email between December 2024 and February 2025. Expert demographics and authority coefficients were collected and the indicator system was finalized.Results:The response rate was 100% for both rounds. The average expert authority coefficient ( Cr) was 0.860 (range: 0.700-1.000). Kendall′s W for importance and feasibility increased from 0.129 and 0.196 in the first round to 0.230 and 0.268 in the second round (all P<0.001), indicating strong consensus. The final system includes 5 first-level and 23 second-level indicators, categorized as: Integrated Preventive and Clinical Care Services, Healthy Community Promotion Services, Basic Medical Services, Public Health Services, and Services for Promoting Equity in Citizen Health and Well-being. The highest-weighted first-level indicators were Basic Medical Services (0.281) and Integrated Preventive and Clinical Care Services (0.281), followed by Services for Promoting Equity in Citizen Health and Well-being (0.191), Healthy Community Promotion Services (0.124), and Public Health Services (0.124). All indicators had importance and feasibility scores above 3.5. Conclusion:This study establishes a weighted indicator system to guide and evaluate the health services provided by family doctors within the "Healthy Subdistrict" initiative, clarifying key service priorities.
