Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System(BRICS)were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. 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 software were used to analyze the data.Results:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units,and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus( n=1 147,36.3%),coagulase-negative Staphylococci( n=928,29.3%), Enterococcus faecalis( n=369,11.7%), Enterococcus faecium( n=296,9.4%)and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci( n=192,6.1%). The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci(MRCNS)were 26.4%(303/1 147)and 66.7%(619/928),respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome,rifampin,compound sulfamethoxazole,linezolid,minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%(2/369),and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions( χ2=14.578, P=0.002),while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions( χ2=15.195, P=0.002). The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals( χ2=13.519 and 12.136, P<0.001). The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions(per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022)were higher than those in economically less advanced regions(per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan)( χ2=9.969 and 7.606, P=0.002和0.006). Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China, Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time;the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China,with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with CREBBP gene mutation. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 14 ALL children with CREBBP gene mutation who were admitted to Children's Hospital of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2016 to December 2023. Results The ALL patients with CREBBP gene mutation accounted for 1.5% (14/963) among all children diagnosed with ALL during the same period of time,among whom there were 4 boys (29%) and 10 girls (71%),with a median age of 4 years and 3.5 months. All children had an immunological type of B-cell ALL and concurrent mutations in other genes including NRAS,KRAS,ETV6,FLT3,PAX5,SH2B3,CDKN2A,and CDKN2B,and 4 children had karyotype abnormality. All 14 children received induction therapy with the VDLP regimen,with a complete remission (CR) rate of 79% (11/14) after the first course of treatment. Three children experienced bone marrow recurrence alone,with a recurrence rate of 21% (3/14),among whom 1 child achieved CR after blinatumomab therapy and 2 received bridging hematopoietic stem cell transplantation after chemotherapy for recurrence. Among the 14 children,1 died due to treatment discontinuation and 13 achieved disease-free survival. The 5-year overall survival rate was 92%±7%,and the event-free survival rate was 73%±13%. Conclusions ALL with CREBBP gene mutation is more common in girls and has a low induction remission rate and a high recurrence rate,and it is often accompanied by other types of gene mutations and abnormal karyotypes. Most children with recurrence can achieve long-term survival after immunotherapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
