ObjectiveTo investigate the current professional competency among full-time and part-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration in Shanghai, so as to provide a scientific basis for future training programmes. MethodsIn December 2024, a questionnaire survey was conducted by the Shanghai Nosocomial Infection Quality Control Center among full-time and part-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration across medical institutions at various levels and types in Shanghai using convenience sampling method. The questionnaire consisted of two parts: demographic information and professional competency assessment. The professional competency scale comprised four dimensions: fundamental cognition, basic skills, professional expertise, and personal qualities, totaling 35 items. ResultsA total of 1 179 questionnaires were distributed, with 1 144 valid responses collected, yielding an effective response rate of 97.03%. Statistically significant differences were observed among full-time and part-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration in terms of age (t=5.32, P=0.021), professional background (χ2=9.90, P=0.019), educational qualifications (χ2=19.10, P<0.001), professional titles (χ2=12.60, P=0.002), and the levels of medical institutions (χ2=111.08, P<0.001). The scores of full-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration in fundamental cognition [92 (82, 99) points] and basic skills [88 (78, 96) points] were significantly higher than those of part-time personnel(Z=-2.21, P=0.027;Z=-2.74, P=0.006). Statistically significant differences were found in fundamental cognition scores between full-time and part-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration regarding occupational safety protection, definition of healthcare-associated infection outbreaks, types of drug-resistant bacteria and their prevention and control strategies, and transmission routes of different infectious diseases (all P<0.05). Statistically significant differences were also observed in basic skills scores including proficient use of monitoring platforms, formulation and revision of standard operating procedures (SOPs), independent completion of targeted surveillance, guidance on basic infection control skills, guidance for key departments, and follow-up of personnel with occupational exposure (all P<0.05). However, no statistically significant differences were found in scores of professional knowledge and personal qualities (P>0.05). ConclusionThere are certain differences in professional competency between full-time and part-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration in Shanghai in terms of fundamental cognition and basic skills. Part-time personnel can effectively improve their professional competency through systematic training on basic infection control knowledge and practical skills, thereby comprehensively enhancing the overall quality of the nosocomial infection administration team.

Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor among women worldwide,with incidence rates rising annually.The treatment of breast cancer has undergone significant transformations,evolving from an initial reliance on a single surgical approach to the incorporation of systemic therapy,and more recently,to subtype-specific therapy.Clinically,breast cancer is classified into luminal,HER2-positive,and triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)based on the expression of hormone receptor(HR)and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2),with corresponding treatments including endocrine therapy,anti-HER2 targeted therapy,and chemotherapy.However,the current subtype-based treatment strategies lack personalization,with approximately 30%of patients still facing resistance and relapse.While the overall survival rate of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer has been steadily increasing,significant survival improvements have not been observed in patients with triple-negative and luminal breast cancer.To overcome the clinical bottleneck of"incomplete classification and imprecise treatment",the concept of"subtype-precise"therapy has emerged.This innovative approach involves further subclassification of existing subtypes to identify specific targets for precision treatment,characterized by broad population coverage and high specificity.Over the past decade,the multidisciplinary team at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center has established a comprehensive molecular portrait of Chinese Breast Cancer Genome Atlas(CBCGA).They deeply analyzed the molecular characteristics of TNBC,leading to the development of a"Fudan subtype"closely related to clinical outcomes:luminal androgen receptor subtype(LAR),which can be targeted with anti-HER2 and CDK4/6 inhibitors;the immunomodulatory subtype(IM),suitable for immunotherapy;basal-like immune-suppressed subtype(BLIS),which can be treated with platinum-based drugs or poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase(PARP)inhibitors;and mesenchymal-like subtype(MES),which can be treated with anti-cancer stem cell and anti-angiogenic therapies.The team then extended the concept of"subtype-precise"to luminal breast cancer,the subtype with the largest number,the highest proportion and the risk of recurrence for decades.They divided it into four molecular subtypes and proposing corresponding precision treatment strategies:canonical luminal subtype(SNF1),sensitive to endocrine therapy;immunogenic subtype(SNF2),amenable to immunotherapy;proliferative subtype(SNF3),treatable by CDK4/6 inhibitors;and receptor tyrosine kinase-driven subtype(SNF4),targetable with tyrosine kinase inhibitors.The team is currently conducting phase Ⅲ randomized controlled trials to further validate the"subtype-precise"therapy and promote the"subtype-precise"Fudan experience to enhance overall breast cancer treatment efficacy.Looking forward,the integration of emerging diagnostic tools,such as artificial intelligence,coupled with the continuous update of subtype-specific targets and targeted therapies,is expected to further refine and expand"subtype-precise"therapy.This approach holds great promises for enhancing patient prognosis and leading a new revolution in breast cancer treatment.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of different treatment duration of dual therapy including vonoprazan and low-dose amoxicillin in Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori) eradication. Methods:From December 1, 2022 to November 30, 2023, a total of 150 H. pylori-infected patients who underwent primary treatment in the Affiliated Changzhou No.2 People′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were recruited. The patients were divided into 10-day treatment group and 14-day treatment group with 75 patients in each group by random number table method. Patients of both groups were treated with vonoprazan (20 mg each time, twice per day) combined with amoxicillin (0.75 g each time, 3 times per day), and the treatment duration was 10 and 14 days, respectively. Intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses were used to evaluate the eradication efficacy of H. pylori of the 10-day treatment group and 14-day treatment group. PP analysis was used to compare the incidence of adverse events between the 2 groups. Cost-effectiveness analysis was performed to evaluate the economic efficiency of the 2 treatment regimens. Identified factors affecting the eradication rate in the 10-day treatment group based on the PP. Independent sample t-test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:In ITT and PP analysis, a total of 75, 75 patients and 70, 72 patients were included in the 10-day treatment group and 14-day treatment group, respectively. The results of ITT analysis showed that the eradication rates of 10-day treatment group and 14-day treatment group were 86.7% (65/75) and 90.7% (68/75), respectively. The results of PP analysis showed that the eradication rates of the 2 groups were 92.9% (65/70) and 94.4% (68/72), respectively, and the differences were not statistically significant (both P>0.05). The results of PP analysis showed that the incidences of adverse events of the 10-day treatment group and 14-day treatment group were 12.9% (9/70) and 9.7% (7/72), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant( P>0.05). The cost-effectiveness ratios of the 10-day treatment group and 14-day treatment group were 3.29 and 4.19 yuan/%, respectively. The optimal cut-off values were 63.5 kg for body weight and 1.73 m 2 for body surface area to affect the H. pylori eradication rate. The H. pylori eradication rate of patients with body weight ≤ 63.5 kg was higher than that of patients with body weight >63.5 kg (100.0%, 42/42 vs. 82.1%, 23/28), and the H. pylori eradication rate of the patients with body surface area≤1.73 m 2 was higher than that of patients with body surface area>1.73 m 2 (100.0%, 45/45 vs. 80.3%, 20/25), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=5.61 and 6.91, P=0.018 and 0.009). Conclusions:The 10-day combination therapy of vonoprazan and low-dose amoxicillin is a safe and effective primary treatment regimen for H. pylori eradication. Body weight and body surface area are influencing factors of the eradication rate.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype of breast cancer characterized by the absence of estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). It is highly aggressive, easy to relapse, and chemotherapy remains its mainstay treatment due to the lack of therapeutic targets. In recent years, many advances have been made in the development of immunotherapy for TNBC. This review summarizes the primary modalities of immunotherapy for TNBC, including immune checkpoint inhibitors, adoptive immune cell therapy, tumor vaccines and oncolytic virus. We present the latest research progress on each treatment from the perspective of clinical study and fundamental research, while introducing the potential predictive biomarkers and resistance mechanisms of immunotherapy for TNBC.

ObjectiveTo explore the relapse status based on the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS Scale) and related factors of schizophrenics in Shanghai communities, and to analyze the association between socio demographic characteristics, lifestyles, clinical characteristics and relapse. MethodsA dynamic cohort prospective study design was used in this study. From March 2018 to February 2019, a total of 189 schizophrenics in Xuhui, Hongkou, Changning, Jiading, Songjiang and Baoshan districts were enrolled successively. Baseline questionnaires were conducted through face-to-face interviews at baseline, which contained social demographic information, lifestyle information and clinical information. A follow-up was conducted every 2 weeks for a measurement of PANSS Scale for a total of 6 months. Relapse was assessed by a PANSS score increase of ≥25% from baseline (or an increase of 10 points or more if the baseline score was ≤40 points). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression models were used to analyze the associations between relapse status (assessed by PANSS Scale) and socio demographic characteristics, lifestyles, and clinical characteristics, respectively. ResultsA total of 165 community schizophrenics completed baseline and follow-up surveys, with a loss to follow-up rate of about 12.7%. After exclusion of sociodemographic and clinical information deficits, 132 patients were included in the analysis totally, with an average age of 48.18±12.67 years, among whom 41.67% were male. Totally 33 patients relapsed during the 6-month follow-up period, with a relapse rate of 25.0%. After adjusting for gender, family history, age, employment, education, marital status, smoking, drinking, exercise frequency, medication compliance, insight, social function, violence history, stress recent events, adverse drug reactions and baseline scores of PANSS Scale, risk factors of relapse included the following four factors: age below 40 years (HR=4.47, 95%CI: 1.15-17.40), primary school or below (HR=7.11, 95%CI: 1.54-32.83), unemployed (HR=8.34, 95%CI: 1.78-38.98), and adverse drug reactions (HR=5.02, 95%CI: 1.75-14.37). ConclusionWe should pay attention to the risk factors such as age, education, employment and adverse drug reactions, in order to identify high-risk patients and to conduct timely interventions during the relapse management of schizophrenics in Shanghai community.
