As a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma,Burkitt lymphoma is characterized by unfixed location of disease,rapid progression,diverse symptoms,and clinical complexity in diagnosis and treatment.Professor Wang Xixing posits that Burkitt lymphoma manifests as a tangible mass,and its formation is associated with the invasion of exogenous pathogens,internal injury induced by seven emotions,and deficiency of healthy qi.The fundamental pathogenesis involves dysfunction of the liver,spleen and kidney,leading to liver qi stagnation,spleen-stomach deficiency in the middle energizer,and liver-kidney disharmony.The secondary manifestations were caused by the binding of phlegm-damp,toxin,and stasis.In general,the pathogenesis of Burkitt lymphoma presented deficiency in the origin and excess in the superficiality,and deficiency interweaved with excess.In clinical practice,Professor Wang emphasizes the regulation of the functions of liver,spleen and kidney,and maintains the body's yin-yang balance on the basis of the combination of disease differentiation and syndrome differentiation.Therapeutic strategies focus on soothing liver qi,replenishing qi to strengthen the spleen,and tonifying the kidney to regulate the liver,separately through the utilization of Chaihu Sanjie Decoction,Buzhong Yiqi Decoction,and Bushen Tiaogan Decoction.In this way,significant clinical efficacy is usually achieved.

Clinically,the incidence of chronic musculoskeletal pain is relatively high,and it is one of the main causes of disability in Chinese residents,causing a heavy health and economic burden to the society.There are limited treatments available for patients who are ineffective to conservative treatment and whose disorders are inoperable.Recently,transcatheter embolization(TCE)has become a potential treatment method for such patients.Chronic musculoskeletal pain,such as knee osteoarthritis,adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder(frozen shoulder),tendinopathy,and neck/back muscle pain,can induce pathological neovascularization and inflammatory reactions.TCE of abnormal neovasculature can improve patient's pain and limb function.So far,there are relatively few studies on the TCE of chronic musculoskeletal pain in China,and there are no large-scale high-quality clinical studies abroad.This paper aims to make a comprehensive review about the TCE for chronic musculoskeletal pain,focusing on its basic principles,operative techniques,and latest clinical achievements.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of transpulmonary pressure (Ptp) and driving pressure (DP) in guiding lung-protective ventilation strategies in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods:In this randomized controlled trial, 22 ARDS patients of either sex, aged 18-80 yr, with a body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, were divided into 2 groups ( n=11 each) using a random number table method: Ptp group and DP group. DP group received a tidal volume of 4-6 ml/kg with a plateau pressure<30 cmH 2O (1 cm H 2O=0.098 kPa) and driving pressure<16 cmH 2O. In Ptp group, the positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and tidal volume were adjusted to maintain end-inspiratory Ptp <25 cmH 2O and end-expiratory Ptp 0-5 cmH 2O based on the setting mentioned in DP group. Oxygenation index, PEEP, plateau pressure, central venous pressure, heart rate, mean arterial pressure, parameters of liver and kidney function, mechanical ventilation duration, and the mortality in the intensive care unit were recorded on admission to the operating room and at 24 and 48 h after treatment. Results:Compared to DP group, significant changes were found in the main effects of oxygenation indices and time effects in Ptp group, and significant changes were found in the main effect of PEEP, with mean arterial pressure increasing ( P<0.05), and no significant differences were observed in the other parameters regarding group effects, time effects, or interactions in PEEP group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Ptp provides a superior efficacy than DP in guiding lung-protective ventilation strategies for the patients with ARDS.

Objective To understand the pathogenic bacteria from children with vulvovaginitis and their antimi-crobial resistance.Methods Clinical data of children with vulvovaginitis and positive bacterial culture of vaginal se-cretion from Beijing Children's Hospital from January 1,2016 to December 31,2023 were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among 3 249 children with vulvovaginitis,a total of 3 389 pathogenic bacteria strains were detected,inclu-ding 1 730 strains of Gram-negative bacteria and 1 659 strains of Gram-positive bacteria,accounting for 51.05％and 48.95％,respectively.The top 5 detected pathogens were Haemophilus in fluenzae(n=1 201,35.44％),Strep-tococcus pyogenes(Group A)(n=694,20.48％),Staphylococcus aureus(n=375,11.06％),Streptococcus aga-lactiae(Group B)(n=183,5.40％),and Haemophilus parainfluenzae(n=179,5.28％).Among the isolated pathogens in pediatric patients across different age groups,Haemophilus in fluenzae accounted for 46.18％in chil-dren＜7 years old,Streptococcus pyogenes(Group A)and Haemophilus in fluenzae accounted for 27.08％and 25.86％respectively in children aged 7-11 years old,Streptococcus agalactiae(Group B)and Staphylococcus au-reus accounted for 31.50％and 18.11％respectively in children＞11-18 years old.The pathogens detected varied in different seasons.Among Gram-positive bacteria,Streptococcus pyogenes(Group A)had higher resistance rates to erythromycin and clindamycin,which were 93.52％and 92.94％,respectively.Among Gram-negative bacteria,Haemophilus in fluenzae had higher resistance rates to ampicillin,compound sulfamethoxazole,cefaclor,and cefu-roxime(all＞34％).648 Haemophilus in fluenzae strains(53.96％)and 40 Haemophilus parain fluenzae strains(22.35％)produced β-lactamase.Conclusion The common pathogenic bacteria causing infectious vulvovaginitis in children are Haemophilus in fluenzae,Streptococcus pyogenes(Group A),and Staphylococcus aureus.The detec-tion rate of β-lactamase in Haemophilus influenzae is high.Understanding the pathogen detection and antimicrobial resistance status in hospitals can provide basis for clinician's empirical and rational selection of antimicrobial agents.

BACKGROUND:Mongolian medicine Echinops sphaerocephalus L.is a commonly used medicine for bone injury in Mongolian medicine.It is effective for tendon injury,fracture,bone nonunion,bone fever,tingling,sore and other diseases.Our previous studies have confirmed that Mongolian medicine Echinops sphaerocephalus L.can promote the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,but its effect on angiogenesis in the process of bone defect repair is unknown.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of Echinops sphaerocephalus L.on in vitro angiogenesis in human umbilical vein vascular endothelial cells and to explore the angiogenesis-promoting active ingredients and their mechanisms of action of Echinops sphaerocephalus L.using network pharmacology technology.METHODS:The ethanol extract of Echinops sphaerocephalus L.was prepared and preserved by freeze-drying.The proliferation,migration,chemotaxis and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells were observed after treatment with different concentrations(1 000,100,and 10 μg/mL)of Echinops sphaerocephalus L.The active components and possible signaling pathways that promoted angiogenesis were enriched and analyzed by network pharmacology.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The effect of Echinops sphaerocephalus L.on angiogenesis was regulated by its mass concentration:at low mass concentration(10 μg/mL),Echinops sphaerocephalus L.could promote the proliferation,migration,chemotaxis and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein vascular endothelial cells;on the contrary,Echinops sphaerocephalus L.inhibited the proliferation,migration,and chemotaxis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells at high mass concentration(1 000 μg/mL).However,the inhibitory effect of Echinops sphaerocephalus L.on angiogenesis was not significant at high mass concentration due to the limitation of experimental time.10 μg/mL Echinops sphaerocephalus L.could up-regulate the mRNA expression of angiogenesis-associated factors,including kinase insert domain receptor,vascular endothelial growth factor A,and hypoxia-inducible factor α,and thereby influenced angiogenesis during bone repair.(2)Network pharmacological analyses indicated that Echinops sphaerocephalus L.may bind to eight core targets(TGFB1,TNF,IL-6,STAT3,CTNNB1,IL-1B,AKT1,and HIF-1A)through four core active components(apigenin,caffeic acid,quercetin,and chlorogenic acid)to exert an effect on angiogenesis,atherosclerosis,multiple viral infections,and tumor angiogenesis-related signaling pathways.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance profiles of clinical isolates in Beijing Children's Hospital,Capital Medical University from 2016 to 2022.Methods All the strains isolated from inpatients in Beijing Children's Hospital during the period from 2016 to 2022 were analyzed.Antimicrobial susceptibility test was conducted by Kirby-Bauer method or automated system.Results were interpreted according to the breakpoints recommended in the CLSI Ml00 2022 edition.Results A total of 24 904 isolates were analyzed,including Gram-positive bacteria(49.4％)and Gram-negative bacteria(50.6％).The top three Gram-positive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus(15.6％),coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(14.0％),and Streptococcus pneumoniae(8.9％).The top three Gram-negative bacteria were Klebsiella spp.(8.6％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(8.6％),and Haemophilus influenzae(8.1％).The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains was 30.9％in SS.aureus(MRSA)and 82.7％in coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(MRCNS).The prevalence of PRSP was 75.0％(24/32)in meningitis isolates and 2.6％(57/2 195)in non-meningitis isolates.Five strains of E.faecium and 10 strains of E.faecalis were found resistant to linezolid.Two strains of E.faecium were resistant to vancomycin.The prevalence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases(ESBLs)and carbapenem-resistant strains(CREco)in E.coli isolates was 69.0％and 9.7％,respectively.The prevalence of ESBLs and carbapenem-resistant strains(CRKpn)in K.pneumoniae isolates was 73.7％,and 37.2％,respectively.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant strains was 21.9％in P.aeruginosa isolates and 59.3％in A.baumannii isolates.β-lactamase was detected in 68.3％of the H.influenzae isolates.Conclusions Antimicrobial resistance is still serious in children.It is necessary to strength the surveillance of bacterial resistance and use antibiotics rationally in order to curb the spread of drug-resistant strains.

Objective To understand the changing composition and antibiotic resistance of bacterial species in the clinical isolates from outpatient and emergency department(hereinafter referred to as outpatients)and inpatient children over time in various hospitals,and to provide laboratory evidence for rational antibiotic use.Methods The data on clinically isolated pathogenic bacteria and antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates from outpatients and inpatient children in the CHINET program from 2015 to 2021 were collected and analyzed.Results A total of 278 471 isolates were isolated from pediatric patients in the CHINET program from 2015 to 2021.About 17.1％of the strains were isolated from outpatients,primarily group A β-hemolytic Streptococcus,Escherichia coli,and Staphylococcus aureus.Most of the strains(82.9％)were isolated from inpatients,mainly SS.aureus,E.coli,and H.influenzae.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA)in outpatients(24.5％)was lower than that in inpatient children(31.5％).The MRSA isolates from outpatients showed lower resistance rates to the antibiotics tested than the strains isolated from inpatient children.The prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis or E.faecium and penicillin-resistant S.pneumoniae was low in either outpatients or inpatient children.S.pneumoniae,β-hemolytic Streptococcus and S.viridans showed high resistance rates to erythromycin.The prevalence of erythromycin-resistant group A β-hemolytic Streptococcus was higher in outpatients than that in inpatient children.The prevalence of β-lactamase-producing H.influenzae showed an overall upward trend in children,but lower in outpatients(45.1％)than in inpatient children(59.4％).The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKpn),carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPae)and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAba)was 14％,11.7％,47.8％in outpatients,but 24.2％,20.6％,and 52.8％in inpatient children,respectively.The prevalence of multidrug-resistant E.coli,K.pneumoniae,Proteus mirabilis,P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii strains was lower in outpatients than in inpatient children.The prevalence of fluoroquinolone-resistant E.coli,ESBLs-producing K.pneumoniae,ESBLs-producing P.mirabilis,carbapenem-resistant E.coli(CREco),CRKpn,and CRPae was lower in children in outpatients than in inpatient children,but the prevalence of CRAba in 2021 was higher than in inpatient children.Conclusions The distribution of clinical isolates from children is different between outpatients and inpatients.The prevalence of MRSA,ESBL,and CRO was higher in inpatient children than in outpatients.Antibiotics should be used rationally in clinical practice based on etiological diagnosis and antimicrobial susceptibility test results.Ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance and prevention and control of hospital infections are crucial to curbing bacterial resistance.

Objective To investigate the changing antibiotic resistance profiles of E.coli isolated from patients in the 52 hospitals participating in the CHINET program from 2015 to 2021.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility was tested for clinical isolates of E.coli according to the unified protocol of CHINET program.WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 20.0 software were used for data analysis.Results Atotal of 289 760 nonduplicate clinical strains ofE.coli were isolated from 2015 to 2021,mainly from urine samples(44.7±3.2)％.The proportion of E.coli strains isolated from urine samples was higher in females than in males(59.0％vs 29.5％).The proportion of E.coli strains isolated from respiratory tract and cerebrospinal fluid samples was significantly higher in children than in adults(16.7％vs 7.8％,0.8％vs 0.1％,both P＜0.05).The isolates from internal medicine department accounted for the largest proportion(28.9±2.8)％with an increasing trend over years.Overall,the prevalence of ESBLs-producing E.coli and carbapenem resistant E.coli(CREco)was 55.9％and 1.8％,respectively during the 7-year period.The prevalence of ESBLs-producing E.coli was the highest in tertiary hospitals each year from 2015 to 2021 compared to secondary hospitals.The prevalence of CREco was higher in children's hospitals compared to secondary and tertiary hospitals each year from 2015 to 2021.The prevalence of ESBLs-producing E.coli in tertiary hospitals and children's hospitals and the prevalence of CREco in children's hospitals showed a decreasing trend over the 7-year period.The prevalence of CREco in secondary and tertiary hospitals increased slowly.Antibiotic resistance rates changed slowly from 2015 to 2021.Carbapenem drugs(imipenem,meropenem)were the most active drugs amongβ-lactams against E.coli(resistance rate≤2.1％).The resistance rates of E.coli to β-lactam/β-lactam inhibitor combinations(piperacillin-tazobactam,cefoperazone-sulbactam),aminoglycosides(amikacin),nitrofurantoin and fosfomycin(for urinary isolates only)were all less than 10％.The resistance rate of E.coli strains to antibiotics varied with the level of hospitals and the departments where the strains were isolated,especially for cefazolin and ciprofloxacin,to which the resistance rate of E.coli strains from children in non-ICU departments was significantly lower than that of the strains isolated from other departments(P＜0.05).The E.coli isolates from ICU showed higher resistance rate to most antimicrobial agents tested(excluding tigecycline)than the strains isolated from other departments.The E.coli strains isolated from tertiary hospitals showed higher resistance rates to the antimicrobial agents tested(excluding tigecycline,polymyxin B,cefepime and carbapenems)than the strains from secondary hospitals and children's hospitals.Conclusions E.coli is an important pathogen causing clinical infection.More than half of the clinical isolates produced ESBL.The prevalence of CREco is increasing in secondary and tertiary hospitals over the 7-year period even though the overall prevalence is still low.This is an issue of concern.
