OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of cefiderocol versus best available therapy （BAT） or standard-of- care （SOC） for the treatment of confirmed or suspected carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacterial （CRGNB） serious infections from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system， and to explore its reasonable pricing. METHODS A decision tree model was constructed based on data from two phase Ⅲ clinical trials （CREDIBLE-CR and GAME CHANGER） to simulate the cost- effectiveness of cefiderocol in two scenarios： salvage therapy for confirmed CRGNB infection （scenario 1） and empirical therapy for suspected CRGNB infection （scenario 2）. The primary outcome measure was the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio （ICER）. The willingness-to-pay （WTP） was set at 1 to 3 times China’s per capita GDP in 2024. To verify the robustness of the results， one- way and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were conducted， and based on these， a reasonable price range for cefiderocol in the Chinese market was explored. RESULTS The results for scenario 1 showed that the clinical cure rate in the cefiderocol group was higher than that in the BAT group （47.50% vs. 34.21%）， but its ICER was 415 065.03 yuan per cured case， exceeding three times China’s GDP per capita. Scenario 2 revealed that the ICER for cefiderocol relative to SOC was as high as 1 362 446.16 yuan per cured case， far exceeding the WTP. Sensitivity analysis indicated that the treatment duration and price of cefiderocol were key factors affecting its cost-effectiveness. In the two scenarios described above， the unit price of cefiderocol must fall below 683.47 and 242.00 yuan/g， respectively， to be considered cost-effective. CONCLUSIONS Based on the current market price， cefiderocol lacks sufficient cost-effectiveness for treating confirmed or suspected CRGNB serious infections within China’s healthcare system. To improve its accessibility， price negotiations or a tiered medical insurance payment strategy are required.

Objective To explore the echocardiographic features of critically ill patients with infection, and to evaluate the predictive value of echocardiographic parameters for 28-day mortality and myocardial injury. Methods Using a single-center prospective cohort design, 120 critically ill patients with infection admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, Jinshan Hospital of Fudan University from January 2024 to January 2025 were enrolled consecutively. According to the severity of infection, patients were divided into the sepsis group (n＝75) and the non-sepsis group (n＝45). Cox proportional hazards models and modified Poisson regression were used to analyze risk factors of 28-day all-cause mortality and myocardial injury. Kaplan-Meier survival curve and log-rank test were used to assess prognosis differences among patients with different ultrasound parameters. ROC curve and area under the curve (AUC) were applied to evaluate the predictive performance of ultrasound parameters, and restricted cubic spline (RCS) model was used to explore nonlinear relationships. Results The E/e′ ratio was significantly higher in the sepsis group than in the non-sepsis group (P＜0.001), while left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) were lower in the sepsis group (P＜0.05). The Cox proportional hazards model found no association between ultrasound parameters and 28-day all-cause mortality. Modified Poisson regression showed that, after adjusting for confounding factors, elevated E/e′ was an independent risk factor of myocardial injury (RR＝1.12, 95% CI 1.07–1.17, P＜0.001). Survival analysis demonstrated that patients with E/e′ ＞10.9 had lower 28-day survival rates (P＝0.02), and the AUC for E/e′ predicting myocardial injury was 0.835. RCS analysis suggested a nonlinear relationship between E/e′ and myocardial injury risk (P＜0.001). Conclusions E/e′, LVEF, and LVFS have no significant predictive value for 28-day mortality risk in critically ill patients with infections. Elevated E/e′ is an independent risk factor of myocardial injury in such patients, with a nonlinear relationship.

Objective To analyze personal external exposure dose monitoring results of pet hospital radiation workers in Beijing from 2022 to 2024, and to provide scientific evidence for developing effective monitoring protocols, standardizing radiological practices in pet hospitals, and protecting the health of both workers and the public. Methods Personal dose equivalents, H_p(10), were measured using GR-200A thermoluminescent dosimeters. Monitoring included radiation workers at 286 pet hospitals across all 16 districts of Beijing from 2022 to 2024. Each monitoring cycle lasted no more than 90 days. Annual effective doses were calculated by summing the results of four consecutive quarterly cycles. Data were processed and analyzed using Access and TLPS 6.41 software. All evaluations complied with national laws, regulations, and technical standards. Results A total of 1,579 person-time measurements were recorded. Only 51.87% of workers completed the full four-cycle annual monitoring schedule. Over the study period, the mean annual effective dose was 0.29 mSv, and the median dose was 0.14 mSv. The collective effective dose was 238.34 man-mSv. Notably, 94.26% of workers had annual effective doses below 1.0 mSv, and only 0.12% had doses at or above 5 mSv. Dose levels showed a statistically significant downward trend (P<0.05). Both independent and chain-branded clinics had a median annual effective dose of 0.14 mSv. In independent clinics, the proportion of workers with doses below 1.0 mSv increased from 80.77% in 2022 to 98.82% in 2024. In chain-branded clinics, this proportion rose from 96.88% to 98.11% over the same period. Conclusion Radiation exposure among pet hospital workers in Beijing remains at low levels, well below regulatory limits, and shows an overall declining trend. The disparity in personal doses between independent and chain-branded pet hospitals has diminished over time. Nevertheless, the industry still faces challenges such as high staff turnover and low monitoring completion rates. Expanding monitoring coverage and harmonizing protection standards would provide a scientific basis for precise, nationwide regulation.

Objective: To explore the isotemporal substitution effects among different intensities of physical activity within a 10 minute recess period on the mental health of junior high school students, aiming to provide evidence based references for targeted practical interventions. Methods: From May to November 2024, a total of 845 junior high school students from Tianjin,Taiyuan and L Liang in Shaanxi Province,Puyang in Henan Province,Xi an in Shaanxi Province,Quzhou in Zhejiang Province,and Chaoyang in Liaoning Province were selected by using a combination of stratified random sampling and convenience sampling. ActiGraph wGT3X-BT accelerometers was used to measure physical activity during a 10 minute recess period. Mental health status was assessed with the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21). An isotemporal substitution model was constructed in 1 minute increments to predict the effects of substituting different physical activity behaviors on students mental health. Results: During recess, sedentary behavior (SB) was predominant among junior high school students, with an average duration of [7.08(5.85,7.98)] minutes, while moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) accounted for the shortest duration at [0.42(0.21,0.85)] minutes. There were statistically significant differences in MVPA,LPA and SB time between students of different genders and grades( Z/H =-9.08,-8.34,-9.51;84.87,126.82,135.27,all P <0.01). Isotemporal substitution analysis, adjusted for gender and age, showed that replacing 1 minute of SB with 1 minute of MVPA significantly improved anxiety levels ( β =-0.29, 95% CI =-0.53 to -0.04) and overall mental health ( β =-0.72, 95% CI =-1.39 to -0.04), with both results reaching statistical significance (both P <0.05). No significant effects were observed for other substitution patterns (both P >0.05). Conclusions Substituting SB with MVPA during a 10 minute recess period exerts a positive impact on the mental health of junior high school students. It is recommended to optimize the daily recess activity structure in schools to enhance students mental well being.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy， safety and cost-effectiveness of serplulimab as a first-line treatment of small- cell lung cancer （SCLC）， and provide an evidence-based basis for drug selection in hospitals. METHODS Rapid health technology assessment was adopted； PubMed， Cochrane Library， Embase， CNKI， Wanfang， VIP and official websites of domestic and international health technology assessment agencies were systematically searched from the inception to Oct. 2024. Two reviewers independently screened the literature， assessed the quality of included studies and carried out the qualitative analysis according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS A total of 13 systematic reviews/meta-analyses and 9 economic studies were included， and the literature quality was generally good. In terms of effectiveness， compared with chemotherapy alone， serplulimab combined with chemotherapy significantly improved progression-free survival， overall survival， and objective response rate in patients with SCLC. In terms of safety， serplulimab combined with chemotherapy showed no significant difference in the incidence of ≥3 grade adverse events compared with chemotherapy alone in the treatment of SCLC， indicating a good safety profile； compared with combination therapies involving other immunosuppressive agents， the incidence rate of adverse events was also lower. In terms of cost-effectiveness， compared with chemotherapy alone， serplulimab combined with chemotherapy is not cost- effective， which may be related to the high price of serplulimab. CONCLUSIONS Serplulimab is effective and safe in the treatment of SCLC， but has no obvious advantage in terms of cost-effectiveness.

Spinal cord injury(SCI)can result in varying degrees of spinal motor dysfunction,partial sensory loss and sphincter dysfunction.SCI is divided into two stages:primary injury and secondary injury.The spinal cord cell necrosis during the primary injury period and apoptosis,oxidative stress and autophagy during the secondary injury period lead a large number of cell injury and permanant neurodysfunction.The histone deacetylase(HDAC)plays a key role in regulating the cellular viability and gene transcription.Neuro-dysfunction induced by SCI is associated with transcriptional dysfunction associated with unbalanced levels of protein acetylation.Valproic acid(VPA)is a inhibitor of HDAC and is usually used as an antiepileptic drug in clinic.Studies show that VPA may have the potential to treat the central nervous system diseases.VPA inhib-its HDAC,and then regulates oxidative stress,cellular autophagy,ion imbalance,microglia differentiation and inflammatory response,and plays the neuroprotective effect.This paper reviewed the related molecular mecha-nism of VPA in treating SCI.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients, and to construct and verify the nomogram.Methods:The clinical data of 240 patients with MHD admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University from July 2022 to October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether the patients had MACE, they were divided into two groups, namely the occurrence group (with MACE, n=55) and the non-occurrence group (without MACE, n=185). After comparing the clinical data of the two groups, The independent risk factors of MHD patients with MACE were screened by binary logistic regression analysis, and the risk nomogram prediction model was constructed according to the risk factors, and the prediction efficiency of the model was analyzed by Bootstrap method. Results:There were significant differences in age, dialysis age, hyperlipidemia, hyperuricemia and hemodialysis flux between the two groups (all P<0.05). Binary logistic regression model analysis showed that dialysis age >12 months, combined with hyperlipidemia, combined with hyperuricemia, and low throughput hemodialysis were independent risk factors for MHD patients with MACE (all P<0.05). The neomorph risk prediction model was constructed based on independent risk factors. The area under the curve (AUC) of the prediction model was 0.842(95% CI: 0.789-0.896), the specificity was 69.1%, the sensitivity was 89.7%, the cutoff value was 13.128, and the Yoden index was 0.588, suggesting that the accuracy of the model was good. Conclusions:Dialysis age >12 months, combined with hyperlipidemia, combined with hyperuricemia and low throughput hemodialysis are independent risk factors for MACE in MHD patients. Intervention and control of risk factors can reduce the incidence of MACE.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-utiliby of capivasertib combined with fulvestrant for the second-line treatment of hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor-2-negative （HR+/HER2－） advanced breast cancer from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system. METHODS A partitioned survival model was constructed using clinical data from the CAPItello-291 trial. Costs and quality-adjusted life years （QALYs） were used as the output indicators of the model， and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio （ICER） was used as the evaluation indicator of the model. Using three times the per capita gross domestic product （GDP） of China in 2024 as the willingness-to-pay threshold （WTP）， this study analyzed the cost-utility of capivasertib combined with fulvestrant versus fulvestrant monotherapy in the treatment of HR+/HER2－ advanced breast cancer， and conducted sensitivity analysis and scenario analysis under conditions where the price of capivasertib was reduced by 50%， 60%， 70% and 95%， respectively. RESULTS The results of the basic analysis showed that compared with the fulvestrant monotherapy regimen， the ICER of capivasertib combined with fulvestrant was 843 038.46 yuan/QALY， which was higher than the WTP（287 247 yuan/QALY）. The one-way sensitivity analysis revealed that the top three factors with the most substantial influence on ICER were the utility value in the progression disease state， the price of capivasertib， and the utility value inthe progression free survival state. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis demonstrated the robustness of the basic analysis results. Scenario analysis revealed that even if the price of capivasertib were reduced by 95%， capivasertib combined with fulvestrant did not exhibit cost-effectiveness at the current WTP. CONCLUSION At a WTP of three times China’s GDP per capita in 2024， compared to fulvestrant monotherapy， capivasertib combined with fulvestrant as the second-line treatment for HR+/ HER2－ advanced breast cancer is not cost-effective.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial resistance profiles of bacterial strains isolated from pediatric intensive care units(PICU)in China for better antimicrobial therapy.Methods Clinical isolates were collected from 17 institutions,including tertiary care children's hospitals and pediatric department of tertiary general hospitals in China from January 1,2020 to December 31,2022.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out according to a unified protocol using Kirby-Bauer method or automated systems.Results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)in 2020.Results A total of 10 688 isolates were collected,including gram-positive organisms(39.2％)and gram-negative organisms(60.8％).The top three organisms were S.aureus(13.6％,1 453/10 688),A.baumannii(10.0％,1 067/10 688),and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(9.9％,1 058/10 688).Multi-drug resistant organisms(MDROs)were very common in children.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA),carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE),carbapenem-resistant E.coli,carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae(CRKP),carbapenem-resistant A.baumannii(CRAB),and carbapenem-resistant P.aeruginosa(CRPA)was 41.1％,19.4％,8.8％,30.9％,67.4％,and 28.8％,respectively.Overall,more than 50％of Enterobacteriales isolates were resistant to cephalosporins,while nearly 25％of Enterobacteriales isolates were resistant to carbapenems.MDROs were highly resistant to commonly used antibiotics.More than 80％of CRE and CRAB strains were resistant to all beta-lactam antibiotics.CRE and CRAB showed low resistance rates to tigecycline and polymyxin.CRPA showed lower resistance rates to piperacillin,beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations than the resistance rates to third and fourth generation cephalosporins.All of the Staphylococcus and Enterococcus isolates were susceptible to vancomycin and tigecycline.None of PRSP strains isolated from meningitis and nonmeningitis samples were resistant to rifampicin,vancomycin,or linezolid.The prevalence of β-lactamase-negative ampicillin-resistant(BLNAR)strains was 43.3％in Haemophilus influenzae.Conclusions MDROs were prevalent in PICU.It is necessary to establish an effective multidisciplinary team(MDT)to control the antimicrobial resistance.

Objective To establish and compare rat models of psoriasis with blood-heat syndrome and blood-stasis syndrome.Methods The blood-heat syndrome model was induced by compound heat potion decoction and imiquimod.The blood-stasis syndrome model was induced by fatigue,hunger,cold dampness,panic and imiquimod.The groups were evaluated for TCM syndromes,psoriasis lesions,pathological tissue,spleen index,hemorheology and key gene expression levels.Results The blood-heat syndrome model group showed significant differences from the control group in syndrome manifestations,PASI score,Baker score,spleen index and plasma viscosity(P<0.05).The blood-stasis model group showed significant differences from the control group in syndrome manifestations,body weight,PASI score,Baker score,spleen index,whole blood viscosity(60s-1),whole blood viscosity(10s-1)and plasma viscosity(P<0.05).The key gene expression levels were different among all syndrome groups.Conclusion The animal models had the typical features of psoriasis and matched the signs of blood-heat syndrome and blood-stasis syndrome of TCM.The models can provide a basis for explaining the scientific meaning of TCM syndrome differentiation in treating psoriasis.
