ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Sizi Powder （四子散， SP） orientation osmotherapy in the treatment of stroke patients with hemiplegia. MethodsIn this study， 94 patients with post-stroke hemiplegia were randomly divided into a control group and a treatment group with 47 patients in each group. The control group received conventional treatment， nursing and rehabilitation training， while the treatment group was treated with SP orientation osmotherapy in addition to the treatments in the control group. The treatment consisted of 20 minutes per session， once daily， 5 times a week， 2 weeks per course， with a total of 2 courses. Before the intervention， after 2 weeks intervention and after 4 weeks intervention， the upper limb motor function was evaluated by using the Fugl-Meyer Assessment （U-FMA）. The modified Ashworth Scale （MAS） was used to assess upper limb spasticity， and joint range of motion was measured for shoulder flexion， extension， abduction， internal rotation， external rotation， elbow flexion， wrist palmar flexion， dorsiflexion， ulnar deviation， and radial deviation. Clinical efficacy for spasticity was evaluated after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment. Skin conditions， including burns， allergic reactions， and blisters， were monitored during the treatment process. ResultsA total of 44 patients in the treatment group and 45 patients in the control group completed the study. The results showed that after 2 and 4 weeks of intervention， the U-FMA scores of both groups increased， with the treatment group showing higher scores than the control group （P＜0.05）. After 4 weeks of treatment， the MAS score distribution improved significantly in both groups （P＜0.05）， although no significant difference was found between the groups after 2 and 4 weeks treatment（P＞0.05）. The total effective rate of spasticity clinical efficacy in the treatment group after 2 and 4 weeks was 15.91% （7/44） and 40.91% （18/44）， respectively， while in the control group， it was 11.11% （5/45） and 22.22% （10/45）. There was no significant difference after 2 weeks treatment （P＞0.05）， but the treatment group showed a significantly higher total effective rate after 4 weeks treatment （P＜0.05）. After 2 and 4 weeks of treatment， the joint range of motion in the upper limbs was greater in both groups （P＜0.05）. After 2 weeks of intervention， the treatment group showed greater range of motion in shoulder flexion， extension， and abduction than the control group， and after 4 weeks of intervention， the treatment group demonstrated greater range of motion in shoulder flexion， extension， abduction， internal rotation， external rotation， and elbow flexion compared to the control group （P＜0.05）. During the treatment， one patient in the treatment group experienced mild skin allergy， while no other severe adverse reactions， such as intense pain， itching， blisters， or infection， were observed in any patients. ConclusionSP orientation osmotherapy can effectively improve upper limb motor function and joint range of motion in stroke patients with hemiplegia. After 4 weeks of treatment， it can reduce upper limb spasticity and improve clinical efficacy， with good safety.

Resistance to poly adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribose polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) presents a considerable obstacle in the treatment of ovarian cancer. F-box and tryptophan-aspartic (WD) repeat domain containing 11 (FBXW11) modulates the ubiquitination of growth-and invasion-related factors in lung cancer, colorectal cancer, and osteosarcoma. The function of FBXW11 in PARPi therapy is still ambiguous. In this study, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) showed that FBXW11 expression was raised in ovarian cancer cells that had been treated with PARPi. FBXW11 was abnormally expressed at low levels in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) tissues, and low levels of FBXW11 were associated with shorter overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in HGSOC patients. Overexpressing FBXW11 made ovarian cancer more sensitive to PARPi, while knocking down FBXW11 made it less sensitive. The four-dimensional (4D) label-free quantitative proteomic analysis revealed that FBXW11 targeted S100 calcium binding protein A11 (S100A11) and promoted its degradation through ubiquitination. The increased degradation of S100A11 led to less efficient DNA damage repair, which in turn contributed to increased PARPi-induced DNA damage. The role of FBXW11 in promoting PARPi sensitivity was also confirmed in xenograft mouse models. In summary, our study confirms that FBXW11 promotes the susceptibility of ovarian cancer cells to PARPi via affecting S100A11-mediated DNA damage repair.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze a patient with infertility due to complex chromosome rearrangement by optical genome mapping (OGM). METHODS: A female patient who was diagnosed with "primary infertility" at Shenzhen Longhua District Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital in April 2024 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the patient was collected. Chromosome G banding karyotyping analysis was carried out for the patient and her parents, in addition with OGM and copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq). This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No.: 2023052504). RESULTS: The patient, a 33-year-old female, had infertility for the past 5 years. OGM revealed formation of two derivative chromosomes through rearrangement of chromosomes 5 and 18. A loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 5 was also detected by OGM and CNV-seq techniques. Both of her parents had a normal karyotype. CONCLUSION The OGM technique can refine the position of chromosomal breakpoints and determine the direction and position of insertional fragment. Combined with karyotype analysis, the OGM can accurately determine the chromosomal karyotype of the patient and facilitate genetic counseling.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals，of which 7 895（87.4%）were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140（12.6%）were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（ n=4 510，49.9%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（ n=2 340，25.9%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（ n=534，5.9%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（ n=405，4.5%）and Enterobacter cloacae（ n=327，3.6%）. The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%（2 095/4 452），21.0%（427/2 033）and 41.1%（58/141），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（58/4 510）and 13.1%（307/2 340）；62.1%（36/58）and 9.8%（30/307）of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 59.5%（241/405），while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 18.4%（98/534）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA（ χ2=20.489 and 20.252， P<0.001）. The prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA，CRAB，ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=11.953，81.183，10.404，5.915，12.415 and 6.459， P<0.01 or <0.05），while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions（per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan）than that in economically less-developed regions（per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=6.240， P=0.012）. Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different，and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

Objective:To investigate the arsenic metabolism pattern and possible influencing factors in the population in drinking-water-borne endemic arsenic poisoning (drinking-water-borne arsenic poisoning for short) areas.Methods:In December 2004, a cluster sampling method was used to select arsenic poisoning population (arsenic poisoning group) and healthy population (control group) in drinking-water-borne arsenic poisoning area of Bayannur City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region as the survey subjects. A questionnaire survey was conducted. Arsenic content in drinking water at home of survey subjects, the levels of urinary arsenic and its metabolites, including [trivalent arsenic (As Ⅲ), inorganic arsenic (iAs), monomethylarsenic acid (pentavalent, MMA V), dimethylarsenic acid (pentavalent, DMA V), total arsenic (tAs), percentage of inorganic arsenic (iAs%), percentage of monomethylarsenic acid (MMA%), percentage of dimethylarsenic acid (DMA%), primary methylation index (PMI), secondary methylation index (SMI)] were tested using high performance liquid chromatography-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry; nail arsenic and nail selenium levels were tested using atomic fluorescence spectrometer. The influencing factors of arsenic metabolism pattern were analyzed by multiple linear regression. Results:A total of 536 survey subjects were included, including 155 individuals in the arsenic poisoning group and 381 in the control group. The water arsenic level ranged from 0.0 to 825.7 μg/L. Compared with the control group, there was no significant difference in the distribution of gender, education level and dental fluorosis in the arsenic poisoning group ( P > 0.05), but there were significant differences in the distribution of age, marital status, smoking, drinking and water arsenic ( P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, the levels of urinary As Ⅲ, iAs, MMA V, DMA V, tAs, MMA%, MMA/DMA and nail arsenic in the arsenic poisoning group were higher ( P < 0.05), while the levels of urinary DMA%, SMI and nail selenium were lower ( P < 0.05); but there was no statistically significant difference in the levels of urinary iAs% and PMI ( P > 0.05). Gender, education level, depth of wells, water arsenic, total number of wells and nail arsenic were the influencing factors of urinary As Ⅲ (β = - 19.82, - 23.83, 0.61, 0.21, 7.26, 2.98, P < 0.05). Age, depth of wells, water arsenic and nail arsenic were the influencing factors of urinary tAs (β = 3.18, 3.25, 1.31, 15.59, P < 0.05). Gender, education level, depth of wells, water arsenic, total number of wells and nail arsenic were the influencing factors of urinary iAs (β = - 20.47, - 25.90, 0.64, 0.25, 7.87, 3.11, P < 0.05). Age, gender, education level, water arsenic and nail arsenic were the influencing factors of urinary MMA V (β = 0.52, - 17.07, - 21.84, 0.22, 2.77, P < 0.05). Age, depth of wells, water arsenic and nail arsenic were the influencing factors of urinary DMA V (β = 2.35, 2.47, 0.85, 9.22, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Compared with healthy individuals, there are differences in arsenic metabolism pattern among individuals with drinking-water-borne arsenic poisoning. Age, gender, education level, depth of wells, water arsenic, total number of wells and nail arsenic may be influencing factors of different arsenic metabolism patterns.

Objective:To explore the genetic basis for a child with developmental delay and intellectual deficit (DD/ID).Methods:A child who was admitted to the Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital of Longhua District of Shenzhen City on June 3, 2023 due to DD/ID, craniofacial malformations, and recurrent infections of upper respiratory tract was selected as the study subject. G-banded chromosomal karyotyping was carried out for the child and her parents. Low-depth genome-wide copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) were used to screen for genome-wide copy number variation (CNV), and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to verify the origin of candidate CNV. This study was approved by the Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital of Longhua District of Shenzhen City(Ethics No. 2023052504). Results:The child, an 8-year-old girl, had featured unexplained growth and intellectual development delay, multiple craniofacial malformations, and recurrent infections of the upper respiratory tract. She was found to have a karyotype of 46, XX, der(6)add(6)(q23), while both of her parents were normal. Both CNV-seq and CMA showed that the child has harbored a 21.38 Mb interstitial duplication at 6p25.3p22.3 and a 0.78 Mb terminal deletion at 6p25. FISH verified that both the duplication and deletion had occurred de novo. Conclusion:The abnormal phenotype of the child may be attributed to the 6p duplication and terminal deletion.
