Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance of clinical isolates from elderly patients(≥65 years)in major medical institutions across China.Methods Bacterial strains were isolated from elderly patients in 52 hospitals participating in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program during the period from 2015 to 2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility test was carried out by disk diffusion method and automated systems according to the same CHINET protocol.The data were interpreted in accordance with the breakpoints recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)in 2021.Results A total of 514 715 nonduplicate clinical isolates were collected from elderly patients in 52 hospitals from January 1,2015 to December 31,2021.The number of isolates accounted for 34.3％of the total number of clinical isolates from all patients.Overall,21.8％of the 514 715 strains were gram-positive bacteria,and 78.2％were gram-negative bacteria.Majority(90.9％)of the strains were isolated from inpatients.About 42.9％of the strains were isolated from respiratory specimens,and 22.9％were isolated from urine.More than half(60.7％)of the strains were isolated from male patients,and 39.3％isolated from females.About 51.1％of the strains were isolated from patients aged 65-＜75 years.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains(MRSA)was 38.8％in 32 190 strains of Staphylococcus aureus.No vancomycin-or linezolid-resistant strains were found.The resistance rate of E.faecalis to most antibiotics was significantly lower than that of Enterococcus faecium,but a few vancomycin-resistant strains(0.2％,1.5％)and linezolid-resistant strains(3.4％,0.3％)were found in E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible S.pneumoniae(PSSP),penicillin-intermediate S.pneumoniae(PISP),and penicillin-resistant S.pneumoniae(PRSP)was 94.3％,4.0％,and 1.7％in nonmeningitis S.pneumoniae isolates.The resistance rates of Klebsiella spp.(Klebsiella pneumoniae 93.2％)to imipenem and meropenem were 20.9％and 22.3％,respectively.Other Enterobacterales species were highly sensitive to carbapenem antibiotics.Only 1.7％-7.8％of other Enterobacterales strains were resistant to carbapenems.The resistance rates of Acinetobacter spp.(Acinetobacter baumannii 90.6％)to imipenem and meropenem were 68.4％and 70.6％respectively,while 28.5％and 24.3％of P.aeruginosa strains were resistant to imipenem and meropenem,respectively.Conclusions The number of clinical isolates from elderly patients is increasing year by year,especially in the 65-＜75 age group.Respiratory tract isolates were more prevalent in male elderly patients,and urinary tract isolates were more prevalent in female elderly patients.Klebsiella isolates were increasingly resistant to multiple antimicrobial agents,especially carbapenems.Antimicrobial resistance surveillance is helpful for accurate empirical antimicrobial therapy in elderly patients.

This study was aimed at developing an in vitro fluorescent substrate assay for the activity of leucyl aminopeptid-ase(LAP)from Echinococcus multilocularis and comparing it with the chemical chromogenic substrate enzyme activity assay.Through the establishment of reaction conditions for the fluorescent substrate-based in vitro enzyme activity assay,we com-pared the differences between the fluorescent substrate L-Leucine-7-amido-4-methylocoumarin(Leu-AMC)and the chemical chromogenic substrate L-Leucine-4-nitroanilide(Leu-pNA)through molecular docking,inhibition rates,and precision measures.Molecular docking revealed that the fluorescent substrate Leu-AMC had higher affinity for the protein than the chemical chromogenic substrate Leu-pNA.Through analysis of the effects of varying reaction conditions on fluorescence intensi-ty,we optimized the fluorescent substrate enzyme activity assay to demonstrate favorable performance at a reaction temperature of 37℃,a pH of 9.0,a protein concentration of 800 nmol/L,and a reaction duration of 60 minutes.Leu-AMC exhibited significant and distinct responses at a 5 μmol/L substrate concentration,under varying substrate conditions.The fluo-rescent substrate assay demonstrated more significant intergroup differences than the chemical chromogenic substrate assay when various inhibitors were added.This study established a fluorescence-based enzyme activity assay for leucyl aminopeptidase from Echinococcus multilocularis by using Leu-AMC as the substrate;this method demonstrated a more significant intergroup difference and sensitivity than the chemical chromogenic substrate assay.

Objective:To explore the clinical effects of sterilization of vas deferens by irrigation in clinic.Methods:Eighty-six male patients with voluntary sterilization were divided into control group(usual vasectomy,n=50)and observation group(sterilization of vas deferens by irrigation,n=36).The age,testicular volume,preoperative average concentration of spern,serum testosterone level,recovery duration evaluated by Artificial Obstruction Azoospermia(AOA)and degree of satisfaction were compared between the two groups of patients.Results:There were significant differences in recovery duration,degree of satisfaction between the two groups(P＜0.05).And there was no significant difference in age([32.0±5.5]years vs[31.0±6.3]years),testicular volume([16.0±4.8]mL vs[17.0±4.4]mL),preopera-tive average concentration of sperm([39.6±20.2]× 106/mL vs[40.2±22.6]× 106/mL)and levels of blood testosterone([4.3±0.8]ng/mL vs[4.4±0.8]ng/mL).There was significant difference in patency rate between the two sides of testicular ducts(91.7％vs 83.3％,P＜0.05).Conclusion:The method of sterilization of vas deferens by irrigation is worth popularizing in clinic.

OBJECTIVE To observe the clinical efficacy of Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction(XFZY)in the prevention and treatment of radiation-induced lung fibrosis(RILF)in esophageal cancer patients with blood stasis type underwent concurrent chemoradiotherapy(CRT).METHODS A total of 130 esophageal cancer patients with blood stasis type who treated with concurrent CRT were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group,with 65 cases in each group.No patients dropped out during the study period.Patients in both groups received CRT and standardized symptomatic treatment was given according to the condition if radiation-induced lung injury occurred during treatment.On the basis of the treatment of the control group,the patients in the experimental group received XFZY from the beginning day until 30 days after the completion of CRT.The TCM syndrome score of the two groups were compared before and after treatment.The incidence of acute radiation pneumonia(RP)and chronic RILF and changes in pulmo-nary function indicators[forced expiratory volume in the first second as a percentage of predicted value(FEV1%pred),forced vital ca-pacity(FVC),FVC as a percentage of predicted value(FVC%pred),FEV1/FVC ratio,and carbon monoxide diffusing capacity as a per-centage of predicted value(DLCO%pred)]and serum cytokine levels[interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),and transforming growth factor β1(TGF-β1)]were compared at 6 months and 12 months after the completion of CRT.The occurrence of adverse reaction during treatment was recorded.RESULTS The total score of TCM syndrome of the two groups was significantly improved and the experimental group was better than that of the control group(P<0.01)after treatment.The efficacy of TCM syndrome was better in the experimental group than that of the control group(P<0.01).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence rate of acute RP between the two groups(P>0.05)at 6 months after the completion of CRT.The levels of lung function indicators FEV1%pred,FVC%pred,and DLCO%pred in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05),and the levels of various cytokines in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence rate of chronic RILF in the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05)at 12 months after the completion of CRT.The DLCO%pred level in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.01),and the levels of cytokines HIF-1α,VEGF,and TGF-β1 were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05,P<0.01).There was no serious adverse event observed in either group of patients during the treat-ment.CONCLUSION XFZY can effectively prevent and treat RILF in esophageal cancer patients with blood stasis type underwent CRT,reducing the loss to lung function caused by radiotherapy,and its mechanism may be related to downregulating the levels of cyto-kines of HIF-1α,VEGF,and TGF-β1.
