Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of diarrhea during early enteral nutrition(EEN)therapy in severe patients with temporary ileostomy.Method:A total of 154 patients with temporary ileostomy who received EEN in the Department of General Surgery,Jinling Hospital from November 2019 to November 2023 were included in this study.All patients were divided into two groups:the diarrhea group(n=43)and the non-diarrhea group(n=111).The clinical data of the patients were retrospectively collected and analyzed,and univariate analysis was performed to compare the differences between groups.The indicators with significant differences were subjected to multivariate logistic regression analysis to determine the influencing factors of diarrhea during EEN therapy in severe patients with temporary ileostomy.Result:Among the 154 patients,43 developed diarrhea during EEN therapy,with an incidence of 27.9%.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that enteral nutrition(EN)infusion rate(OR=6.342,P=0.001,95%CI:2.055～19.572),antibiotics type(OR=8.342,P=0.013,95%CI:1.577～44.119),mechanical ventilation(OR=7.011,P=0.001,95%CI:2.272～21.629),EN formulation type(OR=6.497,P=0.001,95%CI:2.177～19.392),and diabetes(OR=3.321,P=0.036,95%CI:1.080～10.215)were closely associated with EN-related diarrhea in severe patients with temporary ileostomy.Conclusion:There was a high incidence of diarrhea in severe patients with temporary ileostomy who received EEN.EN infusion rate,antibiotics use,mechanical ventilation,EN formulation type and diabetes were the influencing factors for presence of EEN-related diarrhea in the patients.Our data could provide a reference for preventing EEN-related diarrhea in severe patients with temporary ileostomy after surgery.

Objective To analyze the incidence and mortality of gastric cancer in countries and territories with different human development index(HDI)levels in 2022,and to understand the burden of gastric cancer globally and in China.Methods Data on gastric cancer incidence and mortality were collected from GLOBOCAN 2022 and HDI data for all countries were obtained from the Human development report 2022.Spearman correlation was applied to examine the associations between the age-standardized incidence rate(ASIR),age-standardized mortality rate(ASMR),mortality-to-incidence ratio(M/I),and HDI for gastric cancer.The Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to assess the differences in ASIR and ASMR between males and females.Results In 2022,gastric cancer ranked the 5th in both incidence and mortality among all cancer types globally.In China,gastric cancer ranked the 5th in incidence and the 3rd in mortality among all cancer types.The ASIR and ASMR of gastric cancer showed a descending trend from high,very high,medium to low HDI countries and territories.The ASIR of gastric cancer was positively correlated with HDI(rs=0.256,P=0.001),while ASMR showed no significant correlation with HDI(rs=-0.008,P=0.918).The M/I was negatively correlated with HDI(rs=-0.831,P＜0.001).The ASIR and ASMR of gastric cancer in males were significantly higher than those in females globally,in China,and across all HDI groups(all P＜0.05).Globally,both ASIR and ASMR of gastric cancer remained relatively stable before the age of 45,but showed a consistently rising trend after the age of 45.In China,the ASIR and ASMR of gastric cancer exceeded global average level across all age groups.Conclusion The burden of gastric cancer incidence and mortality is higher in very high and high HDI countries and territories compared to medium and low HDI countries and territories.In China,the burden of gastric cancer incidence and mortality is above the global average,highlighting the need for targeted prevention and control measures.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To investigate the changes of nitric oxide(NO),endothelin-1(ET-1),thromboxane B2(TXB2)levels in patients with chronic heart failure(CHF)and their correlation with plasma brain natriuretic peptide(BNP).Methods:We enrolled 110 CHF patients admitted in the Second Hospital of Qinhuangdao between January and December 2022.According to the New York Heart Association(NYHA)cardiac function classification,the patients were divided into cardiac function class Ⅱ group(n=22),cardiac function class Ⅲ group(n=50),and cardiac function class Ⅳ group(n=38).Baseline data,levels of NO,ET-1,TXB2,BNP and other related laboratory indexes were compared among three groups.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the association of NO,ET-1,TXB2 with plasma BNP in CHF patients.Multivariate linear regression was employed to analyze related factors of elevated BNP in CHF patients.Results:Compared with patients in class Ⅱ group and class Ⅲ group,those in class Ⅳ group had significant higher uric acid[(467.39±32.60)μmol/L vs.(367.25±22.39)μmol/L vs.(421.42±28.34)μmol/L],total bilirubin[(17.36±3.10)μmol/L vs.(10.65±1.39)μmol/L vs.(11.12±2.01)μmol/L],BNP[(897.60±50.11)ng/L vs.(381.37±31.25)ng/L vs.(527.60±47.84)ng/L],NO[(50.12±5.95)μmol/L vs.(25.36±2.14)μmol/L vs.(37.92±4.84)μmol/L],ET-1[(114.10±10.53)pg/L vs.(80.25±7.38)pg/L vs.(97.03±8.40)pg/L],TXB2[(417.98±29.35)pg/ml vs.(302.63±19.63)pg/ml vs.(381.29±26.44)pg/ml](P＜0.001 all).Compared with those in class Ⅱ group,those in class Ⅲ group had significant higher above-mentioned indexes(except total bilirubin)(P＜0.001 all).Pearson correlation analysis indicated that plasma NO,ET-1,TXB2 were positively associated with BNP(r=0.828,0.750,0.720,P＜0.001 all).Multivariate linear regression analysis indicated that uric acid,total bilirubin,plasma NO,ET-1 and TXB2 levels were independent risk factors for elevated BNP level in CHF patients(B=0.555～20.550,P＜0.05 or＜0.01),while the use of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors(ACEI)/angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blockers(ARB)was an independent protective factor(B=-46.222,P=0.027).Conclusion:The levels of NO,ET-1,and TXB2 are closely related to the occurrence and development of CHF,and they show an increasing trend with the progression of CHF,and is closely related to BNP.

Aim To investigate the anti-Zika virus(ZIKV)mechanism of diterpenoid compound 9 from Euphorbia helioscopia in vitro.Methods The cytotox-icity of compound 9 was evaluated using the CCK-8 as-say.A ZIKV-infected Vero cell model was established,and the antiviral activity was assessed through RT-qPCR,plaque assay,Western blot,and immunofluores-cence.Furthermore,the mechanism of action was elu-cidated using multi-cell line validation,nanoparticle tracking analysis,cellular thermal shift assay,and mo-lecular docking.Results In Vero cells,compound 9 exhibited an EC50 of(3.95±0.15)μmol·L-1 and a CC50 of(272.12±8.56)μmol·L-1,demonstrating significantly higher antiviral efficacy than the positive control drug ribavirin(RBV).Its virus inactivation effect was time-dependent and could significantly re-duce viral load and plaque formation.Studies revealed that compound 9 altered the physicochemical properties of ZIKV particles,including reducing surface charge and increasing particle size distribution.Additionally,it significantly enhanced the thermal stability of the prM protein.Molecular docking analysis indicated that compound 9 formed a high-affinity interaction with the prM protein(binding energy:-38.52 kJ·mol-1)and stabilized its structure through hydrophobic interac-tions.Conclusion Compound 9 exerts in vitro anti-ZIKV activity by directly inactivating the virus,disrup-ting viral particle integrity,and targeting the prM pro-tein.

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.
