To adapt to the immune environment and the stress of antimicrobial exposure,Klebsiella pneumoniae can evolve into resistance to multiple antimicrobial agents in the hosts.However,less attention has been paid to the genetic evolution in vivo from antimicrobial susceptibility to resistance.This paper reviews the adaptive evolu-tion of drug resistance and virulence of K.pneumoniae in patients in current clinical practice.The potential mecha-nisms of the evolution of resistance to carbapenems,ceftazidime-avibactam,tigecycline and colistin in human hosts were mainly summarized.

Background and purpose:With the progressive development of breast cancer surgery toward more individualized and minimally invasive approaches,sentinel lymph node biopsy(SLNB)has replaced axillary lymph node dissection(ALND)as the standard method for axillary management in certain early-stage breast cancer patients.However,there is ongoing debate in clinical practice regarding whether regional lymph node irradiation(RNI)is necessary for patients with sentinel lymph node(SLN)positive status who have not undergone ALND.This study aimed to analyze the clinicopathological features and survival prognosis of patients with SLN-positive status who did not undergo ALND,evaluate the clinical application value of RNI,and provide evidence to support clinical treatment decisions for this group of patients.Methods:This single-center retrospective study screened breast cancer patients who underwent SLNB at Shandong Cancer Hospital from September 1,2014,to August 31,2023.All patients signed informed consent for treatment.Based on whether postoperative radiotherapy included regional lymph node irradiation(internal mammary and/or axillary and/or supra-/infra-clavicular fields),patients were divided into the RNI group and the no-RNI group for follow-up.Additionally,patients were further divided into multiple subgroups based on factors such as the type of breast surgery,tumor molecular subtype,and histological grade,to compare the clinical value of RNI among subgroups.The primary endpoint was locoregional recurrence-free survival(LRRFS),and the secondary endpoints included invasive disease-free survival(iDFS)and overall survival(OS).The Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology(STROBE)checklist was followed for this study.Results:Clinical data of 8 328 breast cancer patients'were screened for this study,and after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria,356 patients were included in the analysis,with 186 in the RNI group and 170 in the no-RNI group.There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of age,body mass index(BMI),menopausal status,tumor location,pathological type,histological grade,vascular invasion,estrogen receptor(ER)and progesterone receptor(PR)status,and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER-2)expression(P＞0.05).However,the number of positive SLNs,T stage,and the proportion of patients undergoing total mastectomy(TM)were significantly higher in the RNI group than in the no-RNI group(P=0.006,P=0.043,P＜0.001).After a median follow-up of 38 months,no recurrence or metastasis was observed in the RNI group,while the recurrence and metastasis rate in the no-RNI group was 3.5%(6/170).Of these,4 cases had local regional recurrence,and 2 had distant metastasis.The RNI group showed superior iDFS compared to the no-RNI group(P=0.017),however there was no statistically significant difference in LRRFS and OS(P=0.051 and P=0.356).Exploratory subgroup analysis indicated that patients with tumor diameter＞2 cm(P=0.033)and triple-negative molecular(TNBC)(P=0.020)might benefit from RNI treatment in terms of LRRFS.Conclusion:For certain high-risk patients,such as those with larger tumor diameter,TNBC,or high non-SLN metastatic risk,RNI still plays an important role in reducing the risk of recurrence and metastasis in breast cancer.In clinical practice,an individualized RNI strategy should be developed based on the patient's residual lymph node tumor load,biological behavior of the tumor,and surgical method.

Background and purpose:Internal mammary sentinel lymph node biopsy(IMSLNB)is a minimally invasive diagnostic technique for regional lymph nodes in breast cancer,which can provide accurate lymph staging and guide adjuvant treatment decision,but its clinical application has been controversial.The purpose of this study was to investigate the prognosis of IMSLNB in early breast cancer.Methods:In this study,a retrospective cohort of 7 949 patients with breast cancer from January 1,2016 to December 31,2021 was analyzed.After applying propensity score matching,the patients were divided into IMSLNB group and no-IMSLNB group,and the regional recurrence-free survival(RRFS),local recurrence-free survival(LRFS),distant metastasis-free survival(DMFS),disease-free survival(DFS)and overall survival(OS)of the two groups were compared.This study was approved by the Clinical Research Ethics Committee of the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Shandong First Medical University(approval number:SDTHEC20130324).Results:A total of 990 patients were included in the final analysis(330 in the IMSLNB group and 660 in the no-IMSLNB group).IMSLN metastasis was found in 54 patients in the IMSLNB group,including 47 patients with axillary lymph node(ALN)metastasis and 7 patients with IMSLN metastasis only.The IMSLN transfer rate was 16.4%.The median follow-up of 41 months showed that the IMSLNB group demonstrated better 3-year DFS[98.4%vs 94.2%,hazard ratio(HR)=0.509;95%CI:0.312-0.828,P=0.007]and 5-year DFS(92.5%vs 87.3%,HR=0.214,95%CI:0.206-0.222,P=0.011)compared with no-IMSLNB group.However,no significant differences were observed in 3-year OS(99.1%vs 99.4%,HR=0.618,95%CI:0.231-1.655,P=0.338)or 5-year OS(98.5%vs 99.1%,HR=0.52,95%CI:0.51-0.53,P=0.392)between the two groups.The 3-year RRFS in the IMSLNB group was better compared with the no-IMSLNB group(99.09%vs 97.73%,HR=0.066;95%CI:0.061-0.071,P=0.048),while no significant differences were observed in 3-year LRFS(99.70%vs 98.19%,HR=0.209;95%CI:0.201-0.217,P=0.130)or DMFS(95.76%vs 96.06%,HR=0.865,95%CI:0.858-0.872,P=0.820)between the two groups.The exploratory subgroup analysis of DFS revealed that patients in the following subgroups could significantly benefit from IM-SLNB(P＜0.05):diagnosis age(≤50 years),premenopausal status,BMI(≤24),lymphovascular invasion(LVI,present),tumor location(lateral),molecular subtype[hormone receptor positive(HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative(HER2-)],histological type(invasive ductal carcinoma),and axillary lymph node status(positive).Conclusion:IMSLNB can provide more accurate regional lymph node staging for early breast cancer,help optimize adjuvant radiotherapy strategies,and improve patients'DFS and RRFS.It can be promoted as a minimally invasive staging technique for regional lymph nodes.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between takeout food consumption and overweight and obesity among college students in Jiangxi Province, and to provide a scientific basis for overweight and obesity prevention and control among college students and standardizing and managing the present situation of takeout food. Methods: From May to June 2018, 2610 college students were randomly selected from a university in Shangrao, Jiangxi Province. The Chi-square and binary Logistic regression were used to analyze the influences of frequency and type of takeout food consumption on overweight and obesity in college students. Results: The prevalence of overweight and obesity among male students (7.7%) was significantly higher than that among female students (4.1%) (χ2=12.02，P<0.01), and the prevalence of overweight and obesity among college students was statistically significant (χ2=12.54, P<0.01). The prevalence of overweight and obesity (8.8%) among college students from relatively wealthy families was higher than that of other groups. College students who ordered takeout and fast food were 1.8 times more overweight and 1.59 times more obese. Conclusion Regular consumption of takeout food and the type of takeout food, such as "Fast Food Bento", increased the risk of overweight and obesity. Improved healthy takeout food awareness and appropriate practices should be strengthened.

Preventing and mitigating major risk exposure is an important task for modern countries to maintain sustained and healthy economic development and overall social stability. In this manuscript, the authors introduced Israel′s current medical and health care risk prevention system, including the regional health emergency response coordination mechanism, hospital′s external emergency rescue capacity building and hospital′s internal security system. Israel′s risk prevention system has been tested by wars and terrorist attacks, as well as many infectious diseases outbreaks. Thus the authors expected that its successful experiences can be introduced as a reference for improving China′s medical and health care risk prevention system.

Objective To investigate effects of Danhong on the serum levels of CD137, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and homocysteine (Hcy) in patients with non-ST elevation acute myocardial infarction complicating metabolic syndrome. Methods A total of 126 patients with non-ST elevation acute myocardial infarction complicating metabolic syndrome were enrolled and randomly divided into a conventional treatment group and a Danhong treatment group using a random-digit table, with 63 patients in each group. All patients underwent angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention. The patients in the Danhong treatment group treated with intravenous Danhong 20 ml on the basis of conventional treatment for 1 week. The serum levels of CD137, hs-CRP and Hcy were measured at hospital admission and 10 days after treatment. The severity of coronary artery disease was assessed by the Gensini-score. Results The levels of CD137, hs-CRP and Hcy in both groups after treatment were significantly lower than before treatment (conventional treatment group: t 12.393, 17.408 and 9.458; Danhong treatment group: t 16.110, 17.573 and 13.481; all P<0.01), and the Danhong treatment group were significantly decreased than the conventional treatment group (t 2.815, 3.224 and 3.157, all P<0.01). The serum levels of CD137 and hs-CRP before treatment were significantly correlated with Gensini scores in 126 patients (r 0.720 and 0.562,all P<0.01). Conclusions The serum levels of CD137 and hs-CRP are significantly correlated with the severity of coronary artery disease, intravenous Danhong may has protective effect for coronary artery disease via decreasing CD137 and hs-CRP.
