Objective To analyze the characteristics of adverse drug reactions （ADR） reported in Sixth People’s Hospital South Campus, Shanghai Jiaotong University from 2021 to 2023, to provide reference for promoting rational clinical drug use. Methods ADR data reported in our hospital were collected retrospectively, including patients’ basic information, drugs causing adverse reactions, types of adverse reactions and outcomes. Descriptive analysis methods were used to summarize and analyze the data. Results A total of 979 cases of ADR were reported in our hospital from 2021 to 2023. The highest proportion of patients with ADR occurred in the age range of 31 to 50, and more male patients （63.5%）. The top five drugs involved with adverse reactions were antibiotics （48.8%）, Chinese medicine injections（19.2%）, vitamins（7.5%）, Chinese traditional medicine（7.2%）, equine tetanus immunoglobulin（6.3%）. Among antibiotics, cefuroxime, ceftazidime and cefotiam were the majority. The organs/systems involved in all ADR were mainly skin and accessories damage （55.4%）. The clinical manifestations were rash, itching, and maculopapular rash. Conclusion From 2021 to 2023, the most common drugs causing adverse drug reactions in our hospital were mainly antibacterial drugs, and the rational clinical use of antibacterial drugs still needs to be concerned.

Objective To investigate the changes in eosinophil counts and the activation of microglial cells in the brain tissues of mice at different stages of Angiostrongylus cantonensis infection, and to examine the role of microglia in regulating the progression of angiostrongyliasis and unravel the possible molecular mechanisms. Methods Fifty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into the control group and the 7-d, 14-d, 21-day and 25-d infection groups, of 10 mice in each group. All mice in infection groups were infected with 30 stage III A. cantonensis larvae by gavage, and animals in the control group was given an equal amount of physiological saline. Five mice were collected from each of infection groups on days 7, 14, 21 d and 25 d post-infection, and 5 mice were collected from the control group on the day of oral gavage. The general and focal functional impairment was scored using the Clark scoring method to assess the degree of mouse neurological impairment. Five mice from each of infection groups were sacrificed on days 7, 14, 21 d and 25 d post-infection, and 5 mice from the control group were sacrificed on the day of oral gavage. Mouse brain tissues were sampled, and the pathological changes of brain tissues were dynamically observed using hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. Immunofluorescence staining with eosinophilic cationic protein (ECP) and ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba1) was used to assess the degree of eosinophil infiltration and the counts of microglial cells in mouse brain tissues in each group, and the morphological parameters of microglial cells (skeleton analysis and fractal analysis) were quantified by using Image J software to determine the morphological changes of microglial cells. In addition, the expression of M1 microglia markers Fcγ receptor III (Fcgr3), Fcγ receptor IIb (Fcgr2b) and CD86 antigen (Cd86), M2 microglia markers Arginase 1 (Arg1), macrophage mannose receptor C-type 1 (Mrc1), chitinase-like 3 (Chil3), and phagocytosis genes myeloid cell triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (Trem2), CD68 antigen (Cd68), and apolipoprotein E (Apoe) was quantified using real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) assay in the mouse cerebral cortex of mice post-infection. Results A large number of A. cantonensis larvae were seen on the mouse meninges surface post-infection, and many neuronal nuclei were crumpled and deeply stained, with a large number of bleeding points in the meninges. The median Clark scores of mouse general functional impairment were 0 (interquartile range, 0), 0 (interquartile range, 0.5), 6 (interquartile range, 1.0), 14 (interquartile range, 8.5) points and 20 (interquartile range, 9.0) points in the control group and the 7-d, 14-d, 21-d and 25-d groups, respectively (H = 22.45, P < 0.01), and the median Clark scores of mouse focal functional impairment were 0 (interquartile range, 0), 2 (interquartile range, 2.5), 7 (interquartile range, 3.0), 18 (interquartile range, 5.0) points and 25 (interquartile range, 6.5) points in the control group and the 7-d, 14-d, 21-d and 25-d groups, respectively (H = 22.72, P < 0.01). The mean scores of mice general and focal functional impairment were all higher in the infection groups than in the control group (all P values < 0.05). Immunofluorescence staining showed a significant difference in the eosinophil counts in mouse brain tissues among the five groups (F = 40.05, P < 0.000 1), and the eosinophil counts were significantly higher in mouse brain tissues in the 14-d (3.08 ± 0.78) and 21-d infection groups (5.97 ± 1.37) than in the control group (1.00 ± 0.28) (both P values < 0.05). Semi-quantitative analysis of microglia immunofluorescence showed a significant difference in the counts of microglial cells among the five groups (F = 17.66, P < 0.000 1), and higher Iba1 levels were detected in mouse brain tissues in 14-d (5.75 ± 1.28), 21-d (6.23 ± 1.89) and 25-d infection groups (3.70 ± 1.30) than in the control group (1.00 ± 0.30) (all P values < 0.05). Skeleton and fractal analyses showed that the branch length [(162.04 ± 34.10) μm vs. (395.37 ± 64.11) μm; t = 5.566, P < 0.05] and fractal dimension of microglial cells (1.30 ± 0.01 vs. 1.41 ± 0.03; t = 5.266, P < 0.05) were reduced in mouse brain tissues in the 21-d infection group relative to the control group. In addition, there were significant differences among the 5 groups in terms of M1 and M2 microglia markers Fcgr3 (F = 48.34, P < 0.05), Fcgr2b (F = 55.46, P < 0.05), Cd86 (F = 24.44, P < 0.05), Arg1 (F = 31.18, P < 0.05), Mrc1 (F = 15.42, P < 0.05) and Chil3 (F = 24.41, P < 0.05), as well as phagocytosis markers Trem2 (F = 21.19, P < 0.05), Cd68 (F = 43.95, P < 0.05) and Apoe (F = 7.12, P < 0.05) in mice brain tissues. Conclusions A. cantonensis infections may induce severe pathological injuries in mouse brain tissues that are characterized by massive eosinophil infiltration and persistent activation of microglia cells, thereby resulting in progressive deterioration of neurological functions.

The general models for intermediates quality analysis in the production process of Yaobitong capsule were established by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) combined with chemometrics, realizing the rapid determination of notoginsenoside R1, ginsenoside Rg1, ginsenoside Re, ginsenoside Rb1, ginsenoside Rd and moisture. The spray-dried fine powder and total mixed granule were selected as research objects. The contents of five saponins were determined by high performance liquid chromatography and the moisture content was determined by drying method. The measured contents were used as reference values. Meanwhile, NIR spectra were collected. After removing abnormal samples by Monte Carlo cross validation (MCCV), Monte Carlo uninformative variables elimination (MC-UVE) and competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS) were used to select feature variables respectively. Based on the feature variables, quantitative models were established by partial least squares regression (PLSR), extreme learning machine (ELM) and ant lion optimization least squares support vector machine (ALO-LSSVM). The results showed that CARS-ALO-LSSVM model had the optimum effect. The correlation coefficients of the six index components were greater than 0.93, and the relative standard errors were controlled within 6%. ALO-LSSVM was more suitable for a large number of samples with rich information, and the prediction effect and stability of the model were significantly improved. The general models with good predicting effect can be used for the rapid quality determination of Yaobitong capsule intermediates.

Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is an effective method to reduce perioperative adverse events such as cardiogenic shock in patients undergoing complex high-risk indicated percutaneous coronary intervention.Femoral artery and femoral vein are the main routes for conventional veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in China,while the cases of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation insertion via axillary artery are relatively rare.However,the axillary artery intubation veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation assisted mode has been regarded as one of the routine clinical paths for the treatment of critically ill patients in foreign countries.This paper reports a case of an elderly male patient who underwent high risk and complex percutaneous coronary interventional therapy by right axillary artery implantation with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation assisted circulation due to the difficulty of femoral artery approach.In order to provide reference for the selection of clinical extracorporeal membrane oxygenation technique route.

Objective:To investigate the effects of fluoride exposure on kidney injury in rats and the sirtuin 3 (SIRT3)-fork head protein O3a (FOXO3a)-tensin homolog induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)/E3 ubiquitin ligase (PARKIN) pathway.Methods:Twenty-four 4-week-old SD rats (clean grade, body mass 100 - 150 g) were selected and divided into three groups according to the randomized numeric table: control group, low fluoride group, and high fluoride group, with eight rats in each group (half male and half female). The control group was given free access to tap water (fluoride ion concentration < 0.5 mg/L), while the low fluoride and high fluoride groups were given free access to tap water and sodium fluoride solutions with fluoride ion concentrations of 5.0 and 50.0 mg/L, respectively, for a period of 180 days. The formation of dental fluorosis in rats was observed and recorded, and the femur, urine and blood samples of rats were collected to measure bone fluoride, urinary fluoride, and blood fluoride levels, and to detect kidney function related indicators (serum uric acid, creatinine, and urea nitrogen contents). Morphological changes of renal tissues stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) were observed under a light microscope. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of renal SIRT3, FOXO3a, PINK1, PARKIN, microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3), autophagy receptor protein (P62), respectively.Results:Seven and one rats in the low and high fluoride groups were found to haveⅠdegree dental fluorosis, while zero and seven rats were found to haveⅡdegree dental fluorosis. Compared with the control group, rats in the low and high fluoride groups had higher levels of bone fluoride (μg/g: 1.18 ± 0.06, 2.16 ± 0.07 vs 0.52 ± 0.05), urinary fluoride (mg/L: 4.43 ± 0.11, 7.46 ± 0.09 vs 2.58 ± 0.14), blood fluoride (μg/ml: 0.77 ± 0.06, 1.68 ± 0.10 vs 0.52 ± 0.08), serum uric acid (μg/ml: 61.01 ± 4.17, 103.92 ± 5.43 vs 28.68 ± 2.91), creatinine (μg/ml: 74.82 ± 9.61, 132.05 ± 5.35 vs 22.38 ± 4.11), and urea nitrogen (μg/ml: 13.36 ± 1.27, 14.55 ± 0.34 vs 0.29 ± 0.07, P < 0.05). Under the light microscope, the kidneys of the control group showed tight and orderly arrangement of renal tubules and glomerular cells, with complete and clear cell contours. The low fluoride group was similar to the control group and no significant abnormalities were observed. The high fluoride group showed abnormal glomerular structure and atrophy, with some areas of renal tubules showing epithelial cell edema and unclear intercellular boundaries. The results of qRT-PCR assay showed that compared with the control group, the low and high fluoride groups had lower mRNA expression levels of SIRT3 (0.82 ± 0.03, 0.58 ± 0.02 vs 1.00 ± 0.08), P62 (0.75 ± 0.07, 0.28 ± 0.09 vs 1.00 ± 0.07, P < 0.05), and higher mRNA expression levels of FOXO3a (1.35 ± 0.04, 3.01 ± 0.23 vs 1.00 ± 0.08), PINK1 (1.58 ± 0.09, 3.28 ± 0.09 vs 1.00 ± 0.07), PARKIN (1.51 ± 0.04, 1.67 ± 0.10 vs 1.00 ± 0.05), LC3 (1.74 ± 0.07, 2.38 ± 0.18 vs 1.00 ± 0.08, P < 0.05). The results of Western blotting showed that compared with the control group, the low and high fluoride groups had lower protein expression levels of SIRT3 (0.91 ± 0.01, 0.55 ± 0.03 vs 1.00 ± 0.01), P62 (0.94 ± 0.27, 0.66 ± 0.38 vs 1.00 ± 0.19, P < 0.05), and higher protein expression levels of FOXO3a (1.14 ± 0.03, 1.22 ± 0.05 vs 1.00 ± 0.02), PINK1 (1.46 ± 0.03, 1.56 ± 0.03 vs 1.00 ± 0.05), PARKIN (1.98 ± 0.02, 2.33 ± 0.11 vs 1.00 ± 0.06), LC3 (4.10 ± 0.58, 4.93 ± 0.33 vs 1.00 ± 0.13, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Exposure to fluoride can cause renal tissue injury in rats, with downregulation of SIRT3 and P62 expression levels, and upregulation of FOXO3a, PINK1, PARKIN, and LC3 expression levels.

Objective To investigate the causes of a cluster of suspected neonatal carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)bloodstream infection(BSI)in the neonatal department of a hospital,and provide references for the effective control of the occurrence of healthcare-associated infection(HAI).Methods Epidemiological in-vestigation on 3 neonates with CRKP BSI in the neonatal department from January 31 to February 6,2023 was per-formed.Specimens from environmental object surfaces were taken for environmental hygiene monitoring,and effec-tive control measures were taken according to the risk factors.Results From January 31 to February 6,2023,a to-tal of 60 neonates were admitted in the neonatal department,including 16 with peripherally inserted central venous catheter(PICC).Three neonates had CRKP BSI,with a incidence of 5.00％.There were 33 hospitalized neonates on the day(February 7)when the cluster of HAI was reported,with a prevalence rate of 9.09％(3/33).CRKP BSI rate in the neonatal department of this hospital from January 31 to February 6,2023 was higher than that in 2022(P＜0.001).The incubators of the 3 neonates with CRKP BSI were in the same ward and adjacent to each other.The first neonate with CRKP BSI(who developed BSI on January 31)underwent PICC maintenance on Feb-ruary 4,and the other 2 neonates with PICC maintenance immediately following the first one also developed CRKP BSI.CRKP were isolated from blood culture of all 3 neonates,and antimicrobial susceptibility testing results were consistent.Conclusion The occurrence of the cluster event of neonatal CRKP BSI may be related to the failure of strict implementation of aseptic procedures during PICC maintenance and cross contamination among items.
