Objective:To study the risk factors for venous thrombosis after peripheral vein placement of medium-length catheters in critically ill patients.Methods:A total of 212 critically ill patients who underwent medium-length catheter placement in Central Hospital of Jiaozhou from January 2021 to October 2022 were selected as the research subjects.Among them, 169 cases did not develop venous thrombosis (control group) and 43 cases did (observation group). Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors for venous thrombosis after peripheral vein placement of medium-length catheters in critically ill patients.Results:Venous thrombosis occurred in 43 cases, the occurrence rate was 20.28% (43/212). The results of single factor analysis showed that age, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE-Ⅱ) score, fibrinogen, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score and catheter infection were the risk factors for venous thrombosis ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥65 years, APACHE-Ⅱ score ≥8 points, fibrinogen score ≥4 g/L, GCS score ≤8 points, and catheter infection were independent risk factors for venous thrombosis: OR values were 1.988 (95% CI 0.995 - 3.975), 4.269 (95% CI 2.063 - 8.834), 3.089 (95% CI 1.505 - 6.349), 3.931 (95% CI 1.920 - 8.045), 7.171 (95% CI 3.225 - 15.948), P<0.05 or <0.01. Conclusions:Age ≥ 65 years, APACHE -Ⅱ score ≥ 8 points, fibrinogen ≥ 4 g/L, GCS score ≤ 8 points, and catheter infection are independent risk factors for venous thrombosis in critically ill patients. Active monitoring should be carried out clinically to reduce the risk of venous thrombosis.

This study was aimed at comprehensively understanding the epidemic status of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis(AHC)and influencing factors related outbreak in Fujian Province,to provide valuable insights for AHC prevention and control in this region.We conducted a descriptive statistical analysis of epidemiological data for AHC cases.Additionally,clinical samples collected from a 2023 outbreak were subjected to pathogen detection,determination of full-length nucleotide sequences within the VP1 region,genotype identification,and comprehensive analysis.The peak incidence of AHC in 2023 was observed in September and accounted for a substantial proportion(86.39%,5 205/6 025)of the total cases throughout the year.The three areas with the highest incidence rates were Sanming(118.57/100 000),Longyan(53.83/100 000)and Zhangzhou(16.02/100 000).From 2011 to 2022,the inci-dence of AHC in Longyan City was the highest for consecutive 12 years.During the peak AHC outbreak period in Fujian Province in 2023,all 62 conjunctival swabs collected were identified as CVA24v,and 60 complete VP1 sequences were obtained through se-quencing.The nucleotide sequence identity among these 60 sequences ranged from 98.7%to 100%,whereas the amino acid identity ranged from 98.4%to 100%.The highest nucleotide sequence identity was observed for the 2023 strain isolated from Zhongshan,Guangdong Province(rang:99.0%～100%).The 2023 strains in Fujian Province belonged to the GIV genotype,and L16I represented a potential unique amino acid variation within the sequence.CVA24v was the causative agent responsible for this AHC epidemic,and its GIV genotype is currently the dominant type in China.Future efforts should prioritize AHC prevention and control measures cen-tered in key cities.Monitoring and early warning of AHC in the whole province should be strengthened before September each year,and the variation of pathogen nucleic should also be tracked in time.

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.

Micro/nanoplastics (MNPs), recognized as emerging environmental pollutants, are widely distributed in natural environments. Due to their small particle size and significant migratory capacity, MNPs can infiltrate diverse environmental matrices, then invade and accumulate in the organism via the skin, respiration, and digestion. Recently, concerns have grown over the detrimental effects and potential toxicity of MNPs on reproductive health. This review summarized published epidemiological and toxicological studies related to MNPs exposure and their effects on reproductive health. Firstly, this review critically examined the current landscape of epidemiological evidence and found that MNPs (e.g., polystyrene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, etc.) are present in various biological specimens from both males and females, and their presence may be associated with an increased risk of reproductive disorders. Secondly, extensive toxicological studies revealed that MNPs exposure induces reproductive health damage through mechanisms such as disrupting the microstructure of reproductive organs and altering molecular-level expressions. Oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, and apoptosis are identified as potential links between MNPs exposure and reproductive damage. Finally, this review addressed the prevalent shortcomings in existing studies and proposed future directions to tackle the challenges posed by MNPs-induced reproductive harm. These insights aim to inform strategies for safeguarding public reproductive health and ecological security, providing a scientific foundation for mitigating risks associated with MNPs pollution.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disorders(PGT-M) in families with hereditary epilepsy. Methods : Whole-exome sequencing(WES) and familial co-segregation analysis were performed to validate the pathogenicity of variants(PCDH19 c. 1031C > G and LGI1 c. 856T >G) in two monogenic epilepsy families. A clinical PGT-M pathway was implemented,and reproductive outcomes were tracked. Results: In Family 1(PCDH19 likely pathogenic variant),13 blastocysts were biopsied over two ovarian stimulation cycles,yielding 3 unaffected euploid embryos(23. 1%). After the third frozen embryo transfer,a healthy male infant was successfully delivered. Prenatal diagnosis confirmed that the fetus did not carry the pathogenic variant PCDH19. Family 2(LGI1 variant of uncertain significance,VUS) screened 14 blastocysts,identifying 2 unaffected euploid embryos(14. 3%),with the first transfer unsuccessful. A clinical pregnancy was currently ongoing following the second frozen-thawed embryo transfer(FET). Conclusion PGT-M can precisely block the vertical transmission of monogenic epileptic pathogenic variants,offering an effective reproductive intervention strategy for families with hereditary epilepsy.

Objective To explore the therapeutic mechanism of compound Yuye Decoction against diabetic cardiomyopathy(DCM).Methods Drugbank,Gene Cards,OMIM and PharmGKb databases were used to obtain DCM-related targets,and the core targets were identified and functionally annotated by protein-protein interaction network analysis followed by GO and KEGG enrichment analysis.The"Traditional Chinese Medicine-Key Component-Key Target-Key Pathway"network was constructed using Cytoscape 3.9.1,and molecular docking was carried out for the key components and the core targets.In the animal experiment,Wistar rat models of DCM were treated with normal saline or Yuye Decoction by gavage at low(0.29 g/kg)and high(1.15 g/kg)doses for 8 weeks,and the changes in cardiac electrophysiology and histopathology were evaluated.The changes in serum levels of LDH,CK,and CK-MB were examined,and myocardial expressions of PI3K,P-PI3K,Akt,P-AKT,BAX,IL-6,and TNF-α were detected using Western blotting.Results We identified 61 active compounds in Yuye Decoction with 1057 targets,3682 DCM-related disease targets,and 551 common targets between them.Enrichment of the core targets suggested that apoptosis,inflammation and the PI3K/Akt pathways were the key signaling pathways for DCM treatment.Molecular docking studies showed that the active components in Yuye Decoction including gold amidohydroxyethyl ester and kaempferol had strong binding activities with AKT1 and PIK3R1.In DCM rat models,treatment with Yuye Decoction significantly alleviated myocardial pathologies,reduced serum levels of LDH,CK and CK-MB,lowered myocardial expressions of BAX,IL-6 and TNF-α,and increased the expressions of P-PI3K and P-AKT.Conclusion The therapeutic effect of compound Yuye Decoction against DCM is mediated by its multiple active components that act on multiple targets and pathways to inhibit cardiomyocyte apoptosis and inflammatory response by regulating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

【Objective】 To investigate the development of the foot arch and develop a rehabilitation treatment plan for children with spastic diplegia of cerebral palsy gross motor function classification(GMFCS) system grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ. 【Methods】 Fifty children with spastic diplegia and flat exostosis with GMFCS grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ were selected into this study, and were divided into observation group (n=25) and control group (n=25) using the random number table method. The control group received conventional exercise therapy, while the observation group received arch correction exercises additionally. Both groups underwent treatment once a day for 5 days a week. Children in both groups were evaluated before and 6 months after the intervention. The arch index F, electronic plantar pressure measurement index, and the D and E scores of the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-88) were used to assess the severity of clubfoot and the level of motor development. 【Results】 Bofore intervention, there were no significant differences in the arch index F, electronic plantar pressure measurement index, and GMFM-88 score between the observation group and the control group (P>0.05). After 6 months of intervention, the scores of arch index F(t=9.89, 5.35), and GMFM-88 (t=6.59, 3.46) in both groups increased significantly(P<0.05). The scores of foot arch index F (26.08±0.73) and GMFM-88 (30.24±7.94) in the observation group and control group were significantly higher than those in the control group (25.34±0.64, 25.20±7.06) (t=3.81, 2.37, P<0.05). Plantar pressure pictures showed a gradual increase in lateral foot pressure compared to medial pressure, and a decrease in pressure in the midfoot arch area, indicating a decrease in foot valgus and progressive development of the arch. 【Conclusion】 The comprehensive rehabilitation therapy technique incorporating arch correction and gymnastics treatment can promote the arch development in children with GMFCS grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ spastic diplegia, which is important for improving their foot and ankle function and motor development level.
