Objective To investigate the perioperative use of antimicrobial agents in class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgeries in secondary first-class and above medical institutions in Shanghai City,and provide a basis for the rational use of antimicrobial agents in such surgeries.Methods Perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis(PAP)in patients undergoing class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgery reported by secondary first-class and above hospitals in Shanghai City from 2017 to 2022 was collected retrospectively.The prophylactic use rate,types,rationality of selection,and timing of use of antimicrobial agents were analyzed comprehensively.Results From 2017 to 2022,a total of 54 868 cases of class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgeries were reported from secondary first-class and above hospitals in Shanghai City.The PAP rates in tertiary comprehensive hospitals,tertiary specialty hospitals,tertiary traditional Chinese medicine hospitals,and secondary comprehensive hospitals were 4.72%,1.79%,3.22%,and 6.63%,re-spectively.The overall PAP rate showed a yearly decreasing trend,from 6.39%in 2017 to 2.31%in 2021.Among different types of hospitals,the PAP rate in secondary comprehensive hospitals decreased most significantly,from 12.72%in 2017 to 0.53%in 2022.The main types of prophylactic antimicrobial use were first-,second-and third-generation cephalosporins,and quinolones.The rational selection rates of antimicrobial agents were highest in ter-tiary comprehensive hospitals(17.13%)and lowest in tertiary specialty hospitals(1.08%).The PAP rates in sys-temic veins 0.5-1 hour before surgery were highest in tertiary specialty hospitals(88.17%)and lowest in tertiary comprehensive hospitals(71.53%).The withdrawal rates of antimicrobial agents within 24 hours after surgery were highest in tertiary traditional Chinese medicine hospitals(80.87%)and lowest in tertiary specialty hospitals(13.26%).Conclusion The PAP for class Ⅰ incisional ophthalmic surgeries in secondary first-class and above medical institutions in Shanghai City still presents certain irrational phenomena in terms of antimicrobial types and administration routes.The administration rate 0.5-1 hour before surgery and withdrawal rate of antimicrobial agents within 24 hours after surgery need to be further improved.Enhanced management is necessary to promote more rational use of antimicrobial agents.

OBJECTIVE:
The results of limited studies on the relationship between environmental pollution and dementia have been contradictory. We analyzed the combined effects of PM 2.5 and smoking on the prevalence of dementia and cognitive impairment in an elderly community-dwelling Chinese population.
METHODS:
We assessed 24,117 individuals along with the annual average PM 2.5 concentrations from 2012 to 2016. Dementia was confirmed in the baseline survey at a qualified clinical facility, and newly suspected dementia was assessed in 2017, after excluding cases of suspected dementia in 2015. National census data were used to weight the sample data to reflect the entire population in China, with multiple logistic regression performed to analyze the combined effects of PM 2.5 and smoking frequency on dementia and cognitive impairment.
RESULTS:
Individuals exposed to the highest PM 2.5 concentration and smoked daily were at higher risk of dementia than those in the lowest PM 2.5 concentration group ( OR, 1.603; 95% CI [1.626-1.635], P < 0.0001) and in the nonsmoking group ( OR, 1.248; 95% CI [1.244-1.252]; P < 0.0001). Moderate PM 2.5 exposure and occasional smoking together increased the short-term risk of cognitive impairment. High-level PM 2.5 exposure and smoking were associated with an increased risk of dementia, so more efforts are needed to reduce this risk through environmental protection and antismoking campaigns.
CONCLUSION
High-level PM 2.5 exposure and smoking were associated with an increased risk of dementia. Lowering the ambient PM 2.5, and smoking cessation are recommended to promote health.

PURPOSE:
To investigate the protective effect of sub-hypothermic mechanical perfusion combined with membrane lung oxygenation on ischemic hypoxic injury of yorkshire brain tissue caused by traumatic blood loss.
METHODS:
This article performed a random controlled trial. Brain tissue of 7 yorkshire was selected and divided into the sub-low temperature anterograde machine perfusion group (n = 4) and the blank control group (n = 3) using the random number table method. A yorkshire model of brain tissue injury induced by traumatic blood loss was established. Firstly, the perfusion temperature and blood oxygen saturation were monitored in real-time during the perfusion process. The number of red blood cells, hemoglobin content, NA+, K+, and Ca2+ ions concentrations and pH of the perfusate were detected. Following perfusion, we specifically examined the parietal lobe to assess its water content. The prefrontal cortex and hippocampus were then dissected for histological evaluation, allowing us to investigate potential regional differences in tissue injury. The blank control group was sampled directly before perfusion. All statistical analyses and graphs were performed using GraphPad Prism 8.0 Student t-test. All tests were two-sided, and p value of less than 0.05 was considered to indicate statistical significance.
RESULTS:
The contents of red blood cells and hemoglobin during perfusion were maintained at normal levels but more red blood cells were destroyed 3 h after the perfusion. The blood oxygen saturation of the perfusion group was maintained at 95% - 98%. NA+ and K+ concentrations were normal most of the time during perfusion but increased significantly at about 4 h. The Ca2+ concentration remained within the normal range at each period. Glucose levels were slightly higher than the baseline level. The pH of the perfusion solution was slightly lower at the beginning of perfusion, and then gradually increased to the normal level. The water content of brain tissue in the sub-low and docile perfusion group was 78.95% ± 0.39%, which was significantly higher than that in the control group (75.27% ± 0.55%, t = 10.49, p < 0.001), and the difference was statistically significant. Compared with the blank control group, the structure and morphology of pyramidal neurons in the prefrontal cortex and CA1 region of the hippocampal gyrus were similar, and their integrity was better. The structural integrity of granulosa neurons was destroyed and cell edema increased in the perfusion group compared with the blank control group. Immunofluorescence staining for glail fibrillary acidic protein and Iba1, markers of glial cells, revealed well-preserved cell structures in the perfusion group. While there were indications of abnormal cellular activity, the analysis showed no significant difference in axon thickness or integrity compared to the 1-h blank control group.
CONCLUSIONS
Mild hypothermic machine perfusion can improve ischemia and hypoxia injury of yorkshire brain tissue caused by traumatic blood loss and delay the necrosis and apoptosis of yorkshire brain tissue by continuous oxygen supply, maintaining ion homeostasis and reducing tissue metabolism level.
