Nuclear emergency medical rescue is one of the important courses of military medical professional education, and improving the training level of nuclear emergency medical rescue plays a very important role in improving post competency of trainees. Based on the problem of disconnection between "teaching" and "need" in the occupational education of nuclear emergency medical rescue in the past, this study proposes the curriculum goal of "the combination of three abilities" and performs the optimization and practice of the occupational education curriculum system of nuclear emergency medical rescue from the aspects of curriculum setting, curriculum content, teaching methods, and assessment and evaluation. The results show that the new curriculum system can significantly improve the comprehensive ability of nuclear emergency medical rescue among trainees and better meet the requirements for their posts, thereby playing an important role in cultivating high-quality military medical talents in nuclear emergency medical rescue.

Aim To explore the mechanism of Guso-ngYigu decoction(GSYG)in the treatment of postm-enopausal osteoporosis(PMOP)based on the gut mi-crobiota.Methods Sixty SPF grade SD rats were ran-domly divided into Control group(Control),Model group(Model),GSYG low-dose group(GSYG-L,1.25 g·kg-1),medium-dose group(GSYG-M,2.5 g·kg-1)and high-dose group(GSYG-H,5 g·kg-1)and alendronate group(Al,0.89 mg·kg-1),with 10 rats in each group.The changes of bone histomorpholo-gy were detected by HE staining and the changes of fe-mur tissue structure were observed by micro-CT.The fecal samples from the colon of Control group,Model group,GSYG-H group were taken to extract the DNA of fecal samples.The Illumina Miseq platform was used to carry out high-throughput sequencing.Results Compared with the Control group,bone trabecula in the Model group was sparse,BV/TV,Tb.Th,Tb.N and BMD decreased(P＜0.01),while SMI and Tb.Sp increased(P＜0.01);compared with the Model group,the number of bone trabeculae in GSYG-L,GSYG-M,GSYG-H group and Al group increased,the bone microstructure was improved,BV/TV,Tb.Th,Tb.N and BMD increased significantly(P＜0.05),and SMI and Tb.Sp increased(P＜0.05).Sequencing results of gut microbiota showed that,compared with the Control group,the gut microbiota diversity of Mod-el group decreased,the flora abundance of Firmicutes decreased,while the Bacteroidetes abundance in-creased.Compared with the Model group,the Firmi-cutes abundance increased and Bacteroidetes abundance decreased in GSYG-H group.Conclusions GSYG can improve bone microstructure and increase bone mineral density,and its mechanism may be related to increasing the diversity of gut microbiota and regulating the structure of gut microbiota.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％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)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed 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 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Medical Immunology is a core basic course for medical majors.In order to broaden students'horizons,cultivate students'scientific thinking,and improve students'problem-solving ability,we designed the"scientific problem-based discussion-situational teaching"module in Medical Immunology course.We create"scientific research situations"based on"cutting-edge topics"to allow students investigating in the laboratory just like scientific researchers.The course includes three parts:"Problem-Lecture-Dis-cussion","Teaching by Expert"and"Experiment Observation",allowing students to experience the research processes,including how to propose,analyze and solve the scientific questions.This teaching method effectively promotes students'understanding and ap-plication of theoretical knowledge,increases their team spirit,cultivates their scientific thinking,and stimulates their interests in sci-entific research.

A triplex RT-qPCR assay with human genes as internal references was established for detection of the Dengue and Zika viruses(DENV and ZIKV,respectively).The conserved regions of the four serotypes of DENV,along with the NS1 gene of ZIKV and the human β-actin gene,which is stably ex-pressed in various human tissues,were targeted by three sets of specific primers and probes.Standard plasmids for four se-rotypes of DENV,ZIKV,and β-actin were constructed as pos-itive controls.Optimal reaction conditions were determined through an L9(34)orthogonal experiment.The specificity,sensitivity,and coverage of the assay were verified and evalua-ted clinically,and the consistency was evaluated against a com-mercial kit for detection of DENV.The triplex RT-qPCR assay established exhibited no non-specific cross reactions with 12 similar arboviruses.The detection sensitivity for DENV and ZIKV were 2.99 and 2.18 copies/μL,respectively,and the intra-group and inter-group repeatability coefficients of variation were within 1.5％.As compared to the commercial kit,the proposed assay obtained positive results for 13 epidemic strains of DENV.Bland-Altman consistency analysis confirmed that the consistency of the detection results of clinical positive samples between the commercial kit and the proposed assay was 92.59％.The highly specific and sensitive triplex RT-qPCR assay with internal references is an effective tool for early and rapid differential identification of DENV and ZIKV.

Objective:To investigate the effect of pre-treatment plasma Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)DNA copy number on the clinical features and prognosis of patients with adult secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(sHLH).Methods:The clinical characteristics,survival rate,and prognostic factors of 171 patients with adult sHLH treated at Jiangsu Province Hospital from June 2017 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed in this study.Patients were divided into three groups,including the EBV DNA-negative group(＜5.0 × 102 copies/ml),lower EBV-DNA loads group(5.0 × 102-8.51 × 104 copies/ml),and higher EBV-DNA loads group(＞8.51 × 104 copies/ml),according to pre-treatment plasma EBV-DNA copy number.Cox regression model was established for screening prognostic factors.Adult sHLH survival prediction model was constructed and realized through the nomogram based on EBV-DNA load after adjusted the factors affecting survival of etiology and treatment strategy.Concordance index(C-index)and calibration curves were calculated to verify model predictive and discriminatory capacity.Results:Among 171 adult sHLH patients,84 patients were not infected with EBV(EBV DNA-negative group),and 87 with EBV(EBV DNA-positive group,48 lower EBV-DNA loads group and 39 higher EBV-DNA loads group).Consistent elevations in the levels of liver enzymes(ALT and AST),LDH,TG,β2-microglobulin and ferritin across the increasing of EBV-DNA load(all P＜0.05),while the levels of fibrinogen decrease(P＜0.001).The median follow-up time was 52 days(range 20-230 days),and 123 patients died.The overall survival(OS)rate of patients in EBV DNA-positive group was lower than that in EBV DNA-negative group(median OS:40 days vs 118 days,P＜0.001).Higher EBV-DNA loads had worse OS(median OS:24 days vs 45 days vs 118 days,P＜0.0001 for trend)compared to lower EBV-DNA loads and EBV DNA-negative group.Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that higher EBV-DNA loads(P=0.005),fibrinogen≤ 1.5 g/L(P=0.012),ferritin(P=0.041),associated lymphoma(P=0.002),and anti-tumor based strategy(P=0.001)were independent prognostic factors for OS.The C-indexes of 30 day,90 days,365 days survival rate were all greater than 0.8 of the nomogram model and calibration curves provided credibility to their predictive capability.Subgroup analysis showed that patients with higher EBV-DNA loads had a significantly worse prognosis in adult sHLH who were women,ferritin＞5 000 μg/L,β2-microglobulin＞7.4 mmol/L and regardless of age,etiologies,HScore points.Conclusion:The EBV-DNA load is a strong and independent predictor for survival in patients with sHLH.The prognostic nomogram based on EBV-DNA loads was dependable and provides a visual tool for evaluating the survival of adult sHLH.

Objective:To explore the value of REG3α,sST2 and TNFR1 in peripheral blood for risk stratification and prognostic evaluation of acute graft-versus-host disease(aGVHD)after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)in children.Methods:From January 2020 to March 2022,70 children with aGVHD after allo-HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected as the research objects,of which 50 cases were mild aGVHD(grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ)and 20 cases were severe aGVHD(grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ).30 healthy children who underwent physical examinations in our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group.Luminex platform was used to detect the protein expression levels of REG3α,sST2 and TNFR1 during aGVHD occurrence,and the differences between the three groups were analyzed by one-way ANOVA.According to the outcome of aGVHD treatment within 28 days,the patients were divided into a good prognosis group of 58 cases and a poor prognosis group of 12 cases.The ROC curve was used to analyze the value of REG3α,sST2 and TNFR1 in predicting the prognosis of children with aGVHD.Results:The peripheral blood levels of REG3α,sST2 and TNFR1 in the mild aGVHD and severe aGVHD groups were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05),and those in the severe aGVHD group were significantly higher than those in the mild aGVHD group(P＜0.05).Compared with the good prognosis group,the peripheral blood levels of REG3α,sST2 and TNFR1 in the poor prognosis group were significantly higher(t=9.27,3.33,2.97;P＜0.01).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC),sensitivity and specificity of the combined detection of REG3α,sST2 and TNFR1 in predicting the prognosis of children with aGVHD were higher than those of the above indicators detected alone or in pairs.Conclusion:The expression levels of REG3α,sST2 and TNFR1 were related to the severity of aGVHD.The combination of REG3α,sST2 and TNFR1 has a high clinical value in predicting the prognosis of children with aGVHD,which is expected to provide a reliable reference for clinical evaluation of the prognosis of children with aGVHD.

Objective:To compare the consistency of lymphoma multigene detection panels based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) with FISH detection of B-cell lymphoma gene rearrangement.Methods:From January 2019 to May 2023, fusion genes detected by lymphoma-related 413 genes that targeted capture sequencing of 489 B-cell lymphoma tissues embedded in paraffin were collected from Henan Cancer Hospital, and the results were compared with simultaneous FISH detection of four break/fusion genes: BCL2, BCL6, MYC, and CCND1. Consistency was defined as both methods yielding positive or negative results for the same sample. The relationship between fusion mutation abundance in NGS and the positivity rate of cells in FISH was also analyzed.Results:Kappa consistency analysis revealed high consistency between NGS and FISH in detecting the four B-cell lymphoma-related gene rearrangement ( P<0.001 for all) ; however, the detection rates of positive individuals differed for the four genes. Compared with FISH, NGS demonstrated a higher detection rate for BCL2 rearrangement, a lower detection rate for BCL6 and MYC rearrangement, and a similar detection rate for CCND1 rearrangement. No correlation was found between fusion mutation abundance in NGS and the positivity rate of cells in FISH. Conclusions:NGS and FISH detection of B-cell lymphoma gene rearrangement demonstrate overall good consistency. NGS is superior to FISH in detecting BCL2 rearrangement, inferior in detecting MYC rearrangement, and comparable in detecting CCND1 rearrangement.

Objective:To investigate the vaccination status, characteristics and prognosis of patients suffering from a combination of COVID-19 and chronic lymphocytic anemia (CLL) in China.Methods:Clinical data of 328 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who were first diagnosed with COVID-19 and treated in the Department of Hematology of Jiangsu Provincial People’s Hospital between November 2022 and February 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analysis of data of patients with severe/critical COVID-19 were conducted by applying the binary logistic regression model.Results:The median age of the CLL patients was 60 (24-87) years. 23.5% (77/328) of these patients suffered from severe/critical COVID-19 infection. Univariate analysis of the data demonstrated that a combination of factors including age >67 years ( OR=2.15, 95% CI 1.24- 3.73, P=0.006), diabetes ( OR=2.09, 95% CI 1.05-4.20, P=0.037), chronic hepatitis B ( OR=2.91, 95% CI 1.30-6.51, P=0.010), CLL progressive ( OR=3.79, 95% CI 1.57-9.15, P=0.003) and CD20 antibody-based treatments within three months prior to the COVID-19 infection ( OR=2.79, 95% CI 1.35-5.77, P=0.006) were the risk factors for severe/critical COVID-19. According to the multivariate analysis, CLL progressive ( OR=2.98, 95% CI 1.10-8.10, P=0.033) was an independent risk factor for severe/critical COVID-19 and administration of the BTK (Bruton tyrosine kinase) inhibitor monotherapy might exert a protective effect and influence a positive outcome of the COVID-19 infection ( OR=0.38, 95% CI 0.16-0.90, P=0.028). Among the 242 patients who were followed up until October 2023, 9.1% (22/242) had multiple subsequent COVID-19 infections (≥3), and 2.1% (5/242) had persistent COVID-19 infections (patients with persistent positive test for the SARS-CoV-2 antigen testing until missing follow-up for any reason). The peak value of the anti-SARS-CoV-2-IgG titres was observed between three and four months post symptom onset (median: 3.511 S/CO vs 1.047 S/CO, P<0.05). The levels of immunoglobulin A gradually decreased following infection with COVID-19, and its trough levels were attained between two to four weeks post infection (median: 0.30 g/L vs 0.74 g/L, P<0.05). According to this study the mortality of patients suffering from a combination of COVID-19 infection and CLL was 2.7% (9/328), and the main reason for their death was respiratory failure and heart failure. Conclusions:A low rate of COVID-19 vaccination and a high rate of severe/critical COVID-19 infection was observed in the CLL patients. CLL progressive was associated with severe/critical COVID-19. Anti-CD20-based treatments received within the past three months might be a risk factor for exacerbation of COVID-19 infection, whereas a monotherapy with BTK inhibitors exert a protective effect and improve outcome of COVID-19 infection.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of ultrafiltration therapy in elderly patients with congestive heart failure(CHF)and frailty.Methods A total of 88 hospitalized elderly patients with CHF and frailty were randomly assigned to the ultrafiltration group(n=44)and the control group(n=44).The control group treated with standard drug therapy.The ultrafiltration group treated with ultrafiltration,however,diuretics were not used during ultrafiltration treatment.Efficacy assessment was compared between the two groups,including patient body weight,N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)levels at 48 hours after treatment,dyspnea severity scores at 48 hours and 1 week after treatment,hospitalization duration and readmission rate within 3 months.Safety assessment parameters included serum creatinine,urea nitrogen,Na+and K+concentration at 48 hours after treatment and creatinine level 1 week after treatment.Results Efficacy assessment indicated that at 48 hours after treatment,both groups showed a significant reduction in patient body weight and NT-proBNP levels compared to pre-treatment levels(P＜0.05).However,there were no significant difference in body weight and NT-proBNP levels before and after treatment between the two groups(P＞0.05).Dyspnea severity scores for both groups increased at 48 hours after treatment,then decreased at 1 week after treatment.The ultrafiltration group exhibited higher dyspnea severity scores than that of the control group at 48 hours after treatment(P＜0.05).The length of hospital stay and the rate of re-hospitalization within 3 months were lower in the ultrafiltration group compared to those of the control group(P＜0.05).Safety assessment revealed that there were no significant differences in serum urea nitrogen and Na+levels before and 48 hours after treatment between the two groups(P＞0.05).However,serum K+levels were higher after 48-hours treatment in the ultrafiltration group than those of the control group(P＜0.05).There were no significant changes in creatinine levels before and after treatment in the control group(P＞0.05),while creatinine levels were lower 1 week after treatment in the ultrafiltration group compared to those of pre-treatment and 48 hours after treatment,and were lower than those of the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ultrafiltration is a safe and effective method for elderly patients with CHF and frailty.
