Objective To understand the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in China,pro-vide data support and decision-making basis for formulating scientific and effective strategies for HAI prevention and control.Methods A nationwide cross-sectional survey on HAI was conducted among various types and levels of medical institutions in China according to a unified protocol of bedside surveys and case investigations.Results In 2024,a total of 5 736 medical institutions and 2 751 765 patients were surveyed.Among them,34 889 HAI cases were identified,with a prevalence rate of 1.27％.The number of HAI episodes was 38 032,and case prevalence rate was 1.38％.The prevalence rate of HAI in medical institutions in different regions of China ranged from 0.66％to 2.35％.Among medical institutions of different scales,those with a bed capacity of ≥900 had the high-est incidence of HAI,reaching 1.65％.The most common infection site was the lower respiratory tract(44.66％),followed by the urinary tract(12.94％),surgical site(9.32％),upper respiratory tract(7.02％),and bloodstream infection(5.78％).The top 3 departments with the highest HAI rates were the general intensive care unit(10.02％),department of neurosurgery(5.51％),and department(group)of hematology(5.34％).A total of 23 238 strains of HAI pathogens were detected,with 10 714 strains(46.10％)from lower respiratory tract speci-mens.The top 5 detected strains were Klebsiella pneumoniae(14.76％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(13.33％),Escherichia coli(12.79％),Acinetobacter baumannii(9.23％),and Staphylococcus aureus(7.88％).231 944 pa-tients underwent class Ⅰ incision surgery were monitored,with 1 647 cases experienced surgical site infection,and the prevalence rate of surgical site infection was 0.71％.The number of patients who should undergo pathogen de-tection(patients receiving therapeutic and therapeutic combined prophylactic antimicrobial agents)was 715 179,while the actual number was 480 492,with a pathogen detection rate of 67.18％.425 225 patients received patho-genic detection before treatment,with a detection rate of 59.46％.Conclusion The overall HAI prevalence in Chi-na is lower,showing disparities among medical institutions of different regions and scales.Therefore,precise imple-mentation of measures is necessary for HAI prevention and control,with a focus on high-risk institutions and high-risk departments,key areas,and critical procedures.All levels of medical institutions should continuously reduce the incidence of HAI by strengthening monitoring,standardizing the use of antimicrobial agents,and reinforcing basic HAI prevention and control measures.

Objective To explore the efficacy of goal management training(GMT)on core symptoms and mental status in college students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD)inattentive type.Methods Delphi method was used to construct a GMT program for college students with inattentive ADHD.Then,totally 68 college students with inattentive ADHD were recruited through advertisements published by hospitals and universities(Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University,and 3 universities in Chongqing from March to June 2024.The subjects were randomly divided into an intervention group(n=34)and a control group(n=34).The intervention group received GMT for 2 h,once a week,for 7 weeks,and the control group did not receive training for the time being.The 2 groups were evaluated within 1 week before and in 7 weeks after intervention by using Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale(ASRS),Dysregulation of Emotions Rating Scale(DERS),Generalized Anxiety Disorde-7(GAD-7),Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9),Self-Compassion Scale(SCS),and Satisfaction with Life Scale(SWLS).Results ① The expert authority coefficient(Cr)of 2 rounds of expert consultation was 0.83,with a questionnaire recovery rate of 100%and 95%,respectively,the Kendall's coordination coefficient was 0.081(P<0.01)and 0.226(P<0.01),and the coefficient of variation was<0.3,indicating the results of the expert consultation were reliable.The constructed GMT program includes 1 first-level indicator,7 second-level indicators,and 20 third-level indicators.② After 7 weeks of GMT intervention,the interaction between the 2 groups and time showed that the experimental group obtained significant improvements than the control group in terms of inattention symptoms(Wald Chi-square=28.35,P<0.001),dysregulation of emotions(Wald Chi-square=23.81,P<0.001),anxiety(Wald Chi-square=22.79,P<0.001),depression(Wald Chi-square=20.52,P<0.001),self-compassion(Wald Chi-square=9.36,P<0.01),and life satisfaction(Wald Chi-square=3.97,P<0.05).Conclusion GMT intervention can significantly improve the core symptoms of college students with inattentive ADHD,reduce anxiety and depression levels,enhance their emotion regulation and self-compassion abilities,and improve their life satisfaction.

This article reports a child with cardioaciocutaneous syndrome (CFCS) caused by a rare microdeletion of chromosome 19p13.3, and a literature review is conducted. The child had unusual facies, short stature, delayed mental and motor development, macrocephaly, and cardiac abnormalities. Whole-exome sequencing identified a 1 040 kb heterozygous deletion in the 19p13.3 region of the child, which was rated as a "pathogenic variant". This is the first case of CFCS caused by a loss-of-function mutation reported in China, which enriches the genotype characteristics of CFCS. It is imperative to enhance the understanding of CFCS in children. Early identification based on its clinical manifestations should be pursued, and genetic testing should be performed to facilitate diagnosis.

The study explored the pathological mechanism of doxorubicin chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity and the intervention methods of traditional Chinese medicine. BALB/c mice were selected to establish tumor-bearing mouse models by orthotopic injection of 4T1 triple-negative breast cancer cells. After randomization, the mice were treated with doxorubicin chemotherapy or doxorubicin chemotherapy + Kaixin San(KXS). The lesions in the prefrontal cortex of mice were observed by pathological examination, and the lesion information was obtained by long non-coding RNA sequencing. The occurrence of lesions was determined by Western blot and biochemical indicators. In addition, neuroblastoma cells and microglia cells were used to construct in vitro models, and drug-containing serum and p-AMPK dephosphorylation inhibitors were used to further verify the accuracy of animal experiments. Pathological results showed that KXS could alleviate doxorubicin-induced neuronal degeneration in the prefrontal cortex. The long non-coding RNA sequencing suggested that neuronal degeneration and the intervention process of KXS were related to ferroptosis, immune diseases, AMPK signaling pathway, etc. Western blot and biochemical indicators confirmed that this process was directly related to the activation of the AMPK/HIF-1α/ACSL4 signaling pathway to alleviate ferroptosis of neurons and immune response of glial cells. In conclusion, KXS could alleviate doxorubicin-induced neurotoxicity by activating the AMPK signaling pathway and reducing the ferroptosis of neurons and immune response of glial cells.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
