Objective To investigate the incidence of neglected perforation of sterile surgical gloves used in craniocerebral surgery and its effect on bacterial contamination of the gloves.Methods A total of 996 sterile surgical gloves worn by surgical participants during craniocerebral surgery were selected as the study objects.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were respectively performed to analyze the factors that might cause the neglected perforation of gloves,and the detection rate of bacteria on the outer surface of perforated and unperforated gloves were compared.Results Among 996 sterile surgical gloves used in craniocerebral surgery,84(8.43%)gloves were found to have neglected perforation,and 39(3.92%)gloves were found to have bacteria.The detection rate of bacteria on the outer surface of the neglected perforation group was significantly higher than that of the non-neglected perforation group(P<0.001).The results of univariate and multivariate Logistic analysis suggested that craniotomy,emergency surgery,surgery time≥150 minutes,the use of rotating equipment during surgery and the role of glove wearing personnel as the main surgeon were the risk factors for neglected perforation of sterile surgical gloves(OR>1,P<0.05),while the use of double-layer gloves during surgery was the protective factor for avoiding perforation(OR<1,P<0.05).Conclusion The occurrence of neglected perforation of sterile surgical gloves during craniocerebral surgery is not optimistic.The probability of neglected perforation of gloves is higher in craniotomy,emergency surgery,long surgery time,the use of rotating equipment during surgery,and gloves used by the main surgeon.For surgeries with a high incidence of neglected perforation,double-layer gloves can be worn during surgery to reduce bacterial contamination on the outer surface of sterile surgical gloves.

This study was aimed at studying the phenotypic and molecular characteristics of a Salmonella Grumpensis isolate from a patient with diarrhea in Shanghai,to provide evi-dence for the prevention of salmonellosis.Biochemical identifi-cation,serum agglutination testing,antimicrobial susceptibility testing,and whole genome sequencing(WGS)were performed on isolate 2023JD76.Global Salmonella Grumpensis genome sequences were searched and downloaded for serotyping predic-tion,multilocus sequence typing(MLST),prediction of anti-microbia resistance genes and virulence genes,and phylogenetic analysis of 2023JD76.The 2023JD76 strain was identified as Salmonella Grumpensis(13,23:d:1,7)with ST2060,and was susceptible to 20 antimicrobial agents.Strain 2023JD76 carried the aminoglycoside resistance gene aac(6')-Iaa and five types of virulence genes:the adhesion genes csg and rat;the secretion and transport genes sip and inv;the typhoid toxin genes cdt and plt;the invasive gene nutrient metabolism factor mgt;and the antimicrobial peptide resistance factor mig.Global S.Grumpensis strains harbored ten types of antimicrobial resistance genes whose prevalence ranged from 58.33％to 100％.The global genome sequences of S.Grumpensis were divided into two lineages.Lineage I was dominated by ST751(88.89％,16/18),and lineage Ⅱ was dominated by ST2060(89.47％,17/19).The genome sequence of strain 2023JD76 belonged to lineage Ⅱ,and was closely related to the genome sequences from human fecal and human cerebrospinal fluid.This study provides the first report of a S.Grumpensis isolate from the stool of a patient with diarrhea in China.Considerable variability in antimicrobial resistance genes was observed among genome sequences from different sources,and the strains harbored a substantial number of virulence genes.Enhanced surveillance should be emphasized to prevent a potential risk of global dissemination.

Pancreatic polypeptide(PP),a pancreatic hormone containing 36 amino acids,plays impor-tant roles in the diagnosis and evaluation of pancreatic function,injury and diseases.In this study,a phage nanobody library against PP was constructed to screen specific PP nanobodies,which would be used to evaluate whether they have binding activity with PP antigen.After PP antigen with high purity was prepared by prokaryotic expression system,it was used to immunize alpaca to construct the nanobody li-brary against PP with high storage capacity and high abundance,from which 8 strains of PP nanobodies were obtained by phage display.One of nanobody strain(PP-VHH)was selected to be expressed in a prokaryotic expression system,which was induced overnight by IPTG.After purification and identifica-tion,the antigen-antibody binding activity and PP level in serum were detected by indirect ELISA and Sandwich ELISA methods,respectively.The results showed that PP-VHH had binding activity with PP,which could be used to detect PP in chicken and human serum.The Sandwich ELISA methods with R2 of the fitting curve 0.9868 could be used to detect PP concentrations of 48-55 pg/mL in the serum of chick-ens,while the concentrations of PP in human serum varied significantly.In summary,PP-VHH screened from nanobody library against PP could detect PP in serum,which would supply the basis for evaluation of abnormal pancreatic function and diagnosis of relative disease.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between IGF2BP3 gene expression and prognosis in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML).Methods:High throughput transcriptome sequencing was performed on bone marrow primary leukemia cells from 27 patients with AML in our center,the relationship between IGF2BP3 expression levels and clinical characteristics were analyzed and verify the samples from patients with newly treated AML and refractory AML.The expression level of IGF2BP3 gene were analyzed in 20 healthy subjects and 26 patients with AML.The expression of IGF2BP3 in two anthracycline-resistant cell lines(HL60/ADR,K562/ADR)was detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot,and the expression difference of IGF2BP3 was compared with that in sensitive cells(HL60,K562).The relationship between the expression level of IGF2BP3 in patients with AML and prognostic were analyzed through data analysis of 746 patients with AML,and the prognostic value of IGF2BP3 in AML was analyzed by multivariate Cox regression analysis.Results:In the bone marrow primary leukemia cells of 27 AML patients in our center,the expression level of IGF2BP3 in patients with refractory AML was significantly higher than that in chemotherapy sensitive patients(P=0.0343).The expression of IGF2BP3 in leukemia patients with extramedullary infiltration(EMI)was significantly higher than that in AML patients without extramedullary infiltration(P=0.0049).Compared with healthy subjects(n=20),IGF2BP3 expression in AML patients(n=26)was higher(P=0.0009).The expression of IGF2BP3 mRNA in the anthracycline resistant cell lines(HL60/ADR,K562/ADR)was significantly higher than that in the sensitive cell lines(K562/ADR vs K562,P=0.0430;HL60/ADR vs HL60,P=0.7369).Western blot results showed that the expression of IGF2BP3 protein in mycin resistant cells was significantly higher than that in sensitive cells(P＜0.001).qPCR results showed that the expression level of IGF2BP3 mRNA in refractory AML patients was significantly higher than that in patients with chemotherapy sensitive(P=0.002).High expression of IGF2BP3 was associated with poor prognosis in AML(P＜0.05)in 3 large sample cohorts of AML patients.Univariate and multivariate prognostic analyses demonstrated that high expression of IGF2BP3 was significantly associated with shorter event-free survival(EFS,HR=1.887,P=0.024)and overall survival(OS,HR=1.619,P=0.016).Conclusion:The high expression of IGF2BP3 gene may be an important factor in the poor prognosis of AML,suggesting that IGF2BP3 gene may be a new molecular marker for the clinical prognosis evaluation and treatment strategy of AML.

Objective:To detect the pharmacokinetic(PK)parameters of coagulation factor Ⅷ(FⅧ)in adult patients with severe hemophilia A,identify the potential factors influencing FⅧ PK,and optimize the use of FⅧ in individual prophylaxis regimens.Methods:PK characteristics of FⅧ were studied in a total of 23 severe hemophilia A adults.The correlation of patients'characteristics including age,von Willebrand factor antigen(vWF:Ag),blood group,weight,body mass index(BMI)and FⅧ genotype,with FⅧ PK were evaluated.Individual prophylaxis regimens were given based on FⅧ PK parameters.Results:The mean terminal half-life(t1/2)of FⅧ was 20.6±9.3 h,ranged from 11.47 h to 30.12 h.The age(r=0.580)and vWF:Ag(r=0.814)were significantly positively correlated with t1/2 of FⅧ.The mean area under the plasma concentration curve(AUC)of FⅧ was 913±399(328-1 878)IU h/dl,and the AUC of FⅧ was positively correlated with age(r=0.557)and vWF:Ag(r=0.784).The mean residence time(MRT)of FⅧ was 24.7±12.4(13.2-62.2)h,and the MRT of FⅧ was positively correlated with age(r=0.664)and vWF:Ag(r=0.868).The mean in vivo recovery(IVR)of FⅧ was 2.59±0.888(1.5-4.29)IU/dl per IU/kg,the mean clearance(CL)of FⅧ was 3±1.58(0.97-7.18)ml/(kg·h),and there was no significant correlation of IVR and CL with age and vWF:Ag.According to the individual PK parameters,ultra low-dose,low-dose and moderate-dose FⅧ were applied to 15,6,2 adults patients with severe hemophilia A for prophylaxis,respectively.Conclusion:There are significant individual differences in the FⅧ half-life of adult patients with severe hemophilia A.The older the patient,the higher the vWF:Ag level,and the longer the FⅧ half-life.Individual administration is required based on the FⅧ PK parameters to optimize prophylaxis treatment.

Objective:To prepare mesenchymal stem cells with antioxidant capacity (AO-MSC ) from human umbilical cords and evaluate its cell biological properties.Methods:In control group,mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) were isolated by digesting human umbilical cord Wharton's Jelly tissues with 0.2％ collagenase Ⅱ,and the released cells were collected and cultured in an animal serum-free culture medium.In AO-MSC group,incompletely collagenase Ⅱ-digested tissue debris were allowed to adhere to flusk flat bottoms and the AO-MSC was harvested by adherent culture. The conventional digestion and culture method was used as control.MSC colony forming ability was evaluated by fibroblast colony forming assay (CFU-F).MSC proliferative capacity was evaluated by CCK-8 assay.The MSC surface markers were detected by using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence staining.The adipogenic and osteogenic capacity of MSC was evaluated by multi-differentiation in vitro,and the mRNA expression of genes that control adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR );Moreover,the mRNA expression of antioxidant substances such as SOD-1,GSH,GAT,and NQO1 in MSC was also evaluated by RT-qPCR.Results:The AO-MSC isolated by this strategy reached a confluence of 80％-90％ at around 18 days and grew in a swirling pattern.Flow cytometry and immunofluorescence staining assays showed that CD73,CD29,CD105,CD90 were highly expressed and CD31,CD45,HLA-DR were scarcely expressed in AO-MSC.AO-MSC exhibited stronger self-renewal and differentiation ability compared to MSC.However,the in vitro adipogenic-osteogenic capacity of MSC in the control group was stronger than that of AO-MSC.RT-qPCR assay showed that AO-MSC expressed higher mRNA levels of antioxidant substances compared to MSC.Conclusion:Human AO-MSC is successfully prepared from human umbilical cord without animal serum.

Objective:To explore the potential causal relationship between gut microbiota and teratozoospermia.Methods:We searched the database of Genome-Wide Association Study(GWAS)for gut microbiota-and teratozoospermia-related data.We used gut microbiota as an exposure factor,determined the instrumental variables according to the GWAS data on 18 340 participants released by the MiBioGen Alliance,and derived the outcome variables from the European data on teratozoospermia,with a sample size of 85 716,including 915 cases and 209 006 controls.Using inverse-variance weighting(IVW),MR-Egger regression and the weighted median estimator(WME),we performed two-sample Mendelian randomization(MR)analysis on the retrieved data,and estimated the causal relationship between gut microbiota and teratozoospermia based on the β value.Results:Two-sample MR analysis indicated that the class Erysipelotrichia,family Erysipelotrichaceae,family Streptococcaceae,genus Coprococcusl,genus Ruminococcaceae UCG009,genus Streptococcus,order Clostridialesm and order Erysipelotrichales were causally related with the increased risk,while the family Porphyromonadaceae with the decreased risk of teratozoospermia.Conclusion:The class Erysipelotrichia,family Erysipe-lotrichaceae,family Streptococcaceae,genus Coprococcusl,genus Ruminococcaceae UCG009,genus Streptococcus,order Clostridia-lesm and order Erysipelotrichales are one of the causes of teratozoospermia,related to the increased risk of the condition,while the family Porphyromonadaceae has a protective effect on sperm morphology,reducing the risk of teratozoospermia.

Objective:To explore the correlation of early urinary continence(UC)after laparoscopic radical prostatectomy(LRP)with relevant preoperative MRI parameters of the urinary tract structure and provide some theoretical evidence for screening the high-risk population with postoperative urinary incontinence.Methods:This study included 49 PCa patients aged 50-78 years trea-ted by LRP in Beijing Tongren Hospital from January 2015 to February 2021,and all followed up for 12 months.We collected the com-plete baseline data on the patients,the clinical data possibly related to early postoperative UC,the MRI anatomical parameters associat-ed with UC,and the data on the recovery of early postoperative UC.We recorded the number of urinary pads used,submitted the data obtained to SPSS 23.0 statistical analysis,and identified the possible relevant factors by univariate correlation analysis,followed by R40.3 or SPSS 23.0 multivariate logistic regression analysis of the included factors and the results of UC.Results:MRI images mani-fested that the prostate anteroposterior diameter averaged(4.0±1.11)cm,the transverse diameter(4.6±0.83)cm,the cephalo-caudal diameter 2.4-6.4 cm,the membranous urethral length(MUL)(13.16±3.52)mm,and the thickness of the urethral rhab-dosphincter(URS)1.08-4.37 mm.Multivariate analysis showed that age was significantly correlated with the recovery of UC at 1 month after LRP(P=0.035,OR=0.16),and so was the URS thickness at 3 months(P=0.011,OR=0.02),9 months(P=0.014,OR=0.039)and 12 months(P=0.014,OR=0.039).Urinary incontinence with the URS thickness ≤1.6 mm at 12 months after operation was found of a high severity(P=0.010,OR[95％CI]=0.858-6.240).The MUL was positively correla-ted with the recovery of UC at 9 months(P=0.024,OR=0.508)and 12 months(P=0.024,OR=0.508)postoperatively.Correlation analysis revealed that the prostate volume,prostate diameter and other factors included in this study were not significantly correlated to postoperative UC.Conclusion:The thickness of the URS is positively correlated with the recovery of early UC,the thinner the URS,the severer the UC,and so is MUL.Age is an independent risk factor for the recovery of UC at 1 month after LRP.These findings need to be further verified by more prospective studies with long-term follow-ups.
