ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Xueshisanjia San against liver fibrosis by regulating PTEN-induced putative kinase （PINK1）/Parkin signaling pathway-mediated mitophagy. MethodsForty specific pathogen free （SPF）-grade male C57BL/6 mice were randomized into the control， model， silibinin （100 mg·kg^-1）， high-dose （15.16 g·kg^-1） Xueshisanjia San， and low-dose （7.58 g·kg^-1） Xueshisanjia San groups. The mouse model of liver fibrosis was constructed by intraperitoneal injection of 20% carbon tetrachloride solution. The treatment lasted for 6 weeks. Blood was collected from the abdominal aorta after intraperitoneal anesthesia， and the liver was separated. Liver pathology was examined by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， Masson staining， and Sirius Red staining. Transmission electron microscopy （TEM） was employed to observe the mitochondrial morphology in the liver tissue. The levels of alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， C-reactive protein （CRP）， total bilirubin （TBil）， transforming growth factor-β₁ （TGF-β₁）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6） in the serum of mice were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Immunohistochemistry， immunofluorescence assay， and Western blot were employed to determine the protein levels of liver fibrosis markers α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA） and collagen Ⅰ， as well as mitophagy markers microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 （LC3）， p62， Beclin-1， PINK1， Parkin， and translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 20 （TOM20）. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group exhibited elevated levels of ALT， AST， CRP， TBil， IL-6， TGF-β₁， and TNF-α in the serum （P<0.05）， pathological changes such destroyed structure of hepatic lobules， disarrangement of hepatic cells， and collagen accumulation， swollen， vacuolated， and fragment mitochondria， down-regulated expression of p62 and TOM20， and up-regulated expression of LC3， Beclin-1， PINK1， and Parkin （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， all the treatment groups exhibited declined levels of ALT， AST， CRP， TBil， IL-6， TGF-β₁， and TNF-α in the serum （P<0.05）， alleviated pathological damage of liver tissue and mitochondrial damage， up-regulated expression of p62 and TOM20， and down-regulated expression of α-SMA， COL1A1， LC3， Beclin1， PINK1， and Parkin （P<0.05）. ConclusionXueshisanjia San may prevent excessive mitophagy and improve mitochondrial quality by inhibiting PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway， thereby alleviating liver fibrosis.

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.

Objectives:Fenofibric acid is extracted from the widely used hypolipemic fenofibrate,nowadays being approved for marketing around numerous nations and regions,nonetheless not in China.Present trial evaluated the efficacy and safety in the Chinese hypertriglyceridemia population. Methods:This is a multi-center,randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled phase Ⅲ clinical trial.Patients from 3 different cohorts,including severe hypertriglyceridemia(HTG),moderate HTG and mixed-dyslipidemia(MD),were randomized at 1:1 ratio to receive fenofibric acid 135 mg or placebo daily for 12 weeks.The primary endpoint was the percentage change of triglyceridemia(TG)from baseline at week 12.Secondary endpoints were the percentage changes of other blood lipid indexes.At the same time,the incidence of medical adverse events was observed. Results:Among the three cohorts of patients with severe HTG(n=52),moderate HTG(n=23)and MD(n=52),the TG levels in the fenofibric acid-treated group decreased by(49.12±29.19)%,(49.95±25.19)%and(49.79±19.28)%,respectively from baseline to 12 weeks,while the corresponding placebo groups decreased by(18.88±40.69)%,(8.11±29.86)%and increased by(10.42±73.04)%,respectively from baseline to 12 weeks.The differences between treatment and placebo groups were statistically significant(P<0.017 for severe HTG cohort,P<0.05 for moderate and MD cohort).The high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)in the fenofibric acid-treated group increased by(25.51±21.45)%,(24.55±24.73)%,and(23.60±27.38)%,and the placebo group increased by(1.91±20.42)%,(2.40±9.32)%and(7.13±19.12)%,respectively,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(all P<0.05).In the fenofibric acid group,adverse events with incidence>5%included upper respiratory tract infection(10.9%),abdominal pain(6.3%),and increased serum creatinine levels(6.3%),rates of adverse events were similar between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusions:Fenofibric acid can significantly reduce triglycerides and elevate HDL-C levels safely in Chinese patients with severe to moderate HTG without statin or MD patients on top of statin therapy.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in healthcare facilities in major regions of China in 2023.Methods Clinical isolates collected from 73 hospitals across China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2023 Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) breakpoints.Results A total of 445199 clinical isolates were collected in 2023,of which 29.0％ were gram-positive and 71.0％ were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species (excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi) (MRSA,MRSE and MRCNS) was 29.6％,81.9％ and 78.5％,respectively.Methicillin-resistant strains showed significantly higher resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents than methicillin-susceptible strains (MSSA,MSSE and MSCNS).Overall,92.9％ of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 91.4％ of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis had significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 93.1％ in the isolates from children and and 95.9％ in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 15.0％ for most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,22.5％ and 23.6％ of which were resistant to imipenem and meropenem,respectively .Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.6％ to 10.0％.The resistance rate to imipenem and meropenem was 21.9％ and 17.4％ for Pseudomonas aeruginosa,respectively,and 67.5％ and 68.1％ for Acinetobacter baumannii,respectively.Conclusions Increasing resistance to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still observed in clinical bacterial isolates.However,the prevalence of important crabapenem-resistant organisms such as crabapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a slightly decreasing trend.This finding suggests that strengthening bacterial resistance surveillance and multidisciplinary linkage are important for preventing the occurrence and development of bacterial resistance.

OBJECTIVE：To analyze the clinical manifestations and characteristics of adverse drug reactions （ADR）induced by EGFR-TKI，and to provide reference for safe use of drugs in clinic. METHODS ：The relevant data of EGFR-TKI-induced ADR reports which were reported to Shandong ADR Monitoring Center from January 2018 to December 2020 were summarized ，and analyzed statistically in respects of age ，gender，drug variety ，ADR classification ，usage and dosage ，occurrence time ，involved organs/systems，clinical manifestations and prognosis of patients. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS ：A total of 120 ADR reports induced by EGFR-TKI were included ，involving 120 patients. Among 120 patients，the female （60.83％）was more than the male （39.17％），and the age was mainly 50-79 years old （79.16％）. A total of 5 drugs including gefitinib ，ositinib，afatinib，ektinib and erlotinib were involved. ADR occurred in 72，11，15，6 and 16 patients using the above drugs respectively ；the main ADR was general ADR （70.83％），followed by severe ADR （22.50％），new general ADR （5.00％）and new severe ADR （1.67％）. All patients were given drugs orally ，off-label use was found in 2 patients who used ektinib ，and the rest met the medication requirements of the drug instructions. ADR occurred in 61 patients（50.83％）within 1 month after medication ，34 patients （28.33％）within 1-3 months after medication ，25 patients（20.83％）within 4-12 months after medication ，and no ADR occurred after 12 months. ADR of organs/systems involved were mainly the lesion of skin and its appendant injury，gastrointestinal system injury and hepatobiliary system injury. The main clinical manifestations were rash ，diarrhea and abnormal liver function ；in addition，some patients developed severe or new severe ADR such as interstitial pneumonia ，bone marrow suppression ，tongue swelling and cerebral infarction. Totally 102 patients recovered or improved after drug withdrawal or symptomatic treatment ，12 patients had unknown outcome ，and 6 patients did not improve. It is suggested that pharmaceutical care should be strengthened within 1 month after EGFR-TKI administration ，so as to guard against the occurrence of new and serve ADR and ensure the safety of clinical medication.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate the occurrence and characteristics of new adverse drug reactions （ADR）in Shandong province，so as to provide reference for the safety of drug use in the clinic. METHODS ：The data of new ADR reports were collected from Spontaneous Reporting System of Shandong ADR Monitoring Center during Oct. 2019 to Mar. 2020. Those reports were analyzed statistically in respects of report types ，reporting institution ，reporters’occupation，gender and age of patients ，drug type ，organs/ systems involved ，clinical manifestations. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS ：A total of 8 566 new ADR reports were screened out ， accounting for 10.81％ of the effective ADRs. Among them ，there were 7 961 new and general ADR （92.94％）and 605 new and serious ADRs （7.06％）. For the new ADR ，the reporting institutions were mainly medical institutions （98.42％），and the reporters ’ occupation were mainly doctors （78.44％）. Female （4 860 cases）was slightly more than male （3 698 cases）；most of them were 45 years old and above （70.00％），and intravenous drip （47.67％）was the main route of administration. The top five ADR suspected drugs were TCM preparations （34.50％），anti-microbials（13.75％），circulatory system drugs （11.41％），nervous system drugs （6.39％）and blood system drugs （4.81％），involving 517，91，64，53，50 types，respectively，among which Levofloxacin injection caused the most serious ADR （24 cases）. The new and general ADR mainly involved gastrointestinal system ，skin and its appendant ； their clinical manifestations were nausea ，vomiting，rash，etc. New and serious ADR mainly caused systemic damage ；their clinical manifestations were anaphylactic shock ，chest tightness and shivering ，etc. It is suggested to strengthen the ADR monitoring of TCM preparations，anti-microbials，circulatory system drugs and other drugs ，so as to ensure the safety of clinical drug use.

Multi-modal therapeutics are emerging for simultaneous diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Polymeric carriers are often employed for loading multiple drugs due to their versatility and controlled release of these drugs in response to a tumor specific microenvironment. A theranostic nanomedicine was designed and prepared by complexing a small gadolinium chelate, conjugating a chemotherapeutic drug PTX through a cathepsin B-responsive linker and covalently bonding a fluorescent probe pheophorbide a (Ppa) with a branched glycopolymer. The branched prodrug-based nanosystem was degradable in the tumor microenvironment with overexpressed cathepsin B, and PTX was simultaneously released to exert its therapeutic effect. The theranostic nanomedicine, branched glycopolymer-PTX-DOTA-Gd, had an extended circulation time, enhanced accumulation in tumors, and excellent biocompatibility with significantly reduced gadolinium ion (Gd

Background and Objectives: Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) has major effects in premature infants. Although previous literature has indicated that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can alleviate lung pathology in BPD newborns and improve the survival rate, few research have been done investigating significantly differentially expressed genes in the lungs before and after MSCs therapy. The aim of this study is to identify differentially expressed genes in lung tissues before and after hAD-MSC treatment. Methods: and Results: Human amnion-derived MSCs (hAD-MSCs) were cultured and met the MSCs criteria for cell phenotype and multidirectional differentiation. Then we confirmed the size of hAD-MSCs-EXOs and their expressed markers. An intratracheal drip of living cells showed the strongest effect on NHLI compared to cellular secretions or exosomes, both in terms of ameliorating pulmonary edema and reducing inflammatory cell infiltration. Through gene chip hybridization, PCR, and western blotting, acylaminoacyl-peptide hydrolase (APEH) expression was found to be significantly decreased under hyperoxia, and significantly increased after hAD-MSC treatment. Conclusions The intratracheal transplantation of hAD-MSCs ameliorated NHLI in neonatal rats through APEH.
