This paper introduces a real-world cohort research model for community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) based on the Jiangsu Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Dominant Diseases Diagnosis and Treatment Data Platform. Firstly, data cleaning is performed by standardizing diagnosis, symptoms, treatment and imaging, intelligently extracting unstructured information, and cleaning and constructing a standardized database. Secondly, for cohort establishment, CAP patients across the province are screened in accordance with CAP diagnostic criteria to build a high-quality disease-specific cohort. Lastly, in terms of protocol design, the characteristics of TCM research and the CAP disease profile are considered to determine appropriate inclusion and exclusion criteria, estimate sample size, define interventions, outcomes and economic evaluations, providing a reference for real-world TCM research on CAP.

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.

Objective:To examine the effect of antidepressant treatment on the longitudinal depressive burden in patients with bipolar depression.Methods:Subjects were recruited from a national multicenter, naturalistic observational project: Comprehensive Assessment and Follow-up Descriptive Study on Bipolar Disorder study (CAFE-BD). A total of 110 patients with bipolar depression (51 males, 59 females; aged 18-64 years, mean age 34.4±11.1 years) were consecutively enrolled between January 2012 and December 2013 from outpatients and inpatients of nine medical institutions, including six psychiatric hospitals and three general hospitals. Based on the use of antidepressants as defined in this study, patients were classified into a medicated group (Ads, n=74) and a non-medicated group (nAds, n=36). Diagnosis of bipolar depression was confirmed using the MINI (Chinese version), and baseline and follow-up assessments were conducted using the Assessment of Mood Disorders Evaluation (ADE) and the Clinical Monitoring Form (CMF). Depression burden indicators, including aggregate depression scores (SUM-D), number of depressive symptoms (NUM-D), and total depression burden, were compared between the Ads group and nAds group at mid-term (the 6 th month) and endpoint (the 12 nd month). Longitudinal changes in these indicators were also analyzed. Results:The proportion of bipolar depressive patients on antidepressants was 67% (74/110). Among them, 85% (63/74) were taking antidepressants at baseline; this dropped to 76% (56/74) at mid-term, and 64% (47/74) at the endpoint. SUM-D were higher in the Ads group than in the nAds group at baseline (9 (6.5, 11) vs 7.38 (5.5, 9.0); W=1 712.00, P=0.015), and there was no statistically significant difference in NUM-D and total depressive burden between two groups at any time points ( P>0.05). Compared to baseline, the Ads group had significantly lower SUM-D (0.5 (0, 1), 1.33 (0.5, 2.5) vs. 9 (6.5, 11); W=2 770.00, 2 743.00), NUM-D (0 (0, 0), 0 (0, 1) vs. 7 (5, 8); W=2 621.00, 2 601.50) and total depressive burden (c 2=64.36, 59.00) at both mid-term and endpoint (all P<0.001); While SUM-D (0.59 (0.4, 0.7), 1 (0.8, 2.5) vs. 7.38 (5.5, 9.0); W=664.50, W=666.00), NUM-D (0 (0, 0), 0 (0, 1) vs. 6 (4, 7); W=527.00, 528.00) and total depression burden ( χ 2=31.00, 31.00) in the nAds group were also significantly decreased at both mid-term and endpoint (all P<0.001). There were no statistically significant differences in the changes in depression burden indicators between the two groups from baseline to mid-follow-up or endpoint, nor from mid-follow-up to endpoint ( P>0.05). Conclusion:In a 12-month real-world naturalistic follow-up study, both medicated and non-medicated bipolar depression groups experienced significant and similar reductions in depression burden.

Objective:This study aims to explore the optimization needs of the cognitive training tool "Fun Brain" from a professional perspective, providing insights for its enhancement and application.Methods:In April 2024, a qualitative research approach was employed, involving group interviews with 61 elderly health professionals organized into 9 groups. The interviews primarily focused on the user experience and optimization suggestions related to the "Fun Brain" app. Thematic analysis was conducted, with NVivo 14 software utilized for data management and processing. Data analysis followed Braun and Clarke′s six-phase procedure to ensure the scientific and systematic extraction of themes. Furthermore, high-frequency word analysis was performed, offering crucial clues for subsequent thematic analysis.Results:The study identified 12 initial themes and 6 optimization themes, with a primary focus on age-appropriate interfaces, personalized modules, and feedback mechanisms. These themes were refined into three core themes, including adaptation of training content, optimization of interaction design, and enhancement of participant motivation.Conclusion:Optimizing cognitive training tools for elderly users requires careful consideration of their specific needs, particularly regarding functional adaptation, interface design, and interactive experience. Implementing these optimizations can improve user engagement and training effectiveness, offering both scientific and practical guidance for the design and promotion of cognitive training tools.
