Objective To analyze the virus subtypes, molecular evolutional and molecular transmission network features of the first confirmed mpox case in Huai’an City, Jiangsu Province, so as to provide insights into understanding of the transmission and evolution dynamics of mpox virus and formulation of the mpox control strategy in the city. Methods Genomic DNA was extracted from swabs of the first confirmed mpox case’s skin lesions in Huai’an City, and the amplicon sequencing library was constructed using the hypersensitive mpox virus whole-genome capture kit. High-throughput sequencing was performed using the GridION X5 nanopore sequencer on the Nanopore sequencing platform, and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis of mpox virus genome sequences was performed following sequence assembly. In addition, phylogenetic analysis, genetic genealogy and molecular traceability analysis were performed. Results The virus whole genome sequence of the first confirmed mpox case was successfully obtained by high-throughput sequencing, with a full length of 197 182 bp, and was named hMpxV/China/JS-HA01/2023, which belonged to the clade IIb (West African clade) lineage B.1.3. Compared with the mpox virus reference sequence MPXV-M5312_HM12_Rivers-001 (GenBank accession number: NC_063383), the genome sequence of the Huai’an virus isolate carried 86 SNPs, including 40 SNPs in the coding region as non-synonymous mutations and 73 SNPs as nucleotide mutations caused by APOBEC3 (APOBEC3). Of the 97 mpox virus gene sequences, 79 sequences were included in the molecular network (81.44%), and the threshold of the genetic distance accessed to the network was 0.35/10⁵. There were two large molecular transmission clusters and one scattered cluster in the molecular transmission network of the mpox virus, andthehMpxV/China/JS-HA01/2023 sequence was located in the large cluster. The 97 gene sequences formed 92 haplotypes, including three shared haplotypes Hap_4, Hap_6 and Hap_38, and an exclusive haplotype Hap_1 of hMpxV/China/JS-HA01/2023 generated from mutation of the exclusive haplotype Hap_43, while the exclusive haplotype Hap_43 was generated from mutation of the shared haplotype Hap_38. Conclusions The whole genome sequence of the mpox virus isolated from the first confirmed mpox case in Huai’an City has been successfully obtained, and the molecular evolutionary and molecular transmission network characteristics of the virus have been preliminarily understood.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)combined with lenvatinib and camrelizumab in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The clinical data of a total of 63 patients with advanced HCC,who received TACE combined with lenvatinib and camrelizumab(triple therapy)or TACE combined with lenvatinib(dual therapy)at the Jingmen Municipal People's Hospital of China between April 2020 and December 2021,were retrospectively analyzed.Triple therapy group had 30 patients,and dual therapy group had 33 patients.The post-treatment tumor response,disease progression-free survival(PFS),overall survival(OS),and the incidence of adverse drug reactions were recorded.Results The median follow-up period of the two groups was 14 months(range of 4-26 months).Compared with the dual therapy group,in the triple therapy group the objective response rate(ORR)was remarkably higher(83.3%vs.57.6%,P=0.026),the disease control rate(DCR)was obviously higher(93.3%vs.69.7%,P=0.039),the median PFS was significantly longer(8.0 months vs.5.0 months,P＜0.01),and the median OS was strikingly longer(24.0 months vs.12.0 months,P=0.004).No statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse drug reactions existed between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion For the treatment of advanced HCC,TACE combined with lenvatinib and camrelizumab is clinically safe and effective.(J Intervent Radiol,2024,32:57-62)

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of Shenfu injection in preventing septic cardiomyopathy (SIC) in septic patients.Methods:From June 2022 to January 2023, patients with sepsis or septic shock who did not develop SIC were randomly divided into treatment group and control group according to the ratio of 1:1. In the treatment group, Shenfu injection (50 mL) was pumped intravenously once every 12 hours for 5 days. In the control group, 50 mL of normal saline was pumped intravenously once every 12 hours, and the course of treatment was 5 days. The primary end point was the incidence of SIC in the first 5 days. The secondary end points were the application time of vasoactive drugs, fluid balance in the previous week, hospitalization time in ICU, total ventilation time and 28-day mortality.Results:112 patients were randomly divided into two groups. Seven patients in the treatment group were excluded twice, and finally 49 patients were included in the analysis, while six patients in the control group were excluded twice and 50 patients included in the analysis. The total incidence of SIC in the treatment group within 5 days was significantly lower than that in the control group (42.9% vs. 64.0%, P = 0.035). Among them, the left ventricular systolic dysfunction in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group (24.5% vs 52.0%, P=0.005), and there was no significant difference in the incidence of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction between the two groups. The incidence of right ventricular dysfunction in the control group was 28.0%, which was significantly higher than 10.2% in the treatment group ( P = 0.025). The duration of using vasoconstrictors in the treatment group was 75(48, 97) hours, which was significantly lower than 97(66, 28) hours in the control group ( P = 0.039). The duration of inotropic drugs use in the treatment group was 32(18, 49) h, which was also significantly shorter than 44(25, 61) h in the control group ( P=0.046). The fluid balance of the control group in the first week was (1 260±850) mL, which was significantly higher than (450±520) mL in the treatment group ( P=0.008). There was no statistical difference in ICU stay, total ventilation time and 28-day mortality between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:Early application of Shenfu injection can significantly reduce the incidence of SIC, accompanied by less use of vasoactive drugs and positive fluid balance, which has a good clinical application prospect.

BACKGROUND:Tabersonine has shown good therapeutic effects in diseases such as myocardial remodeling,acute kidney injury and lung injury due to its anti-inflammatory biological activity.Prosthetic wear particles often lead to aseptic inflammation,and the massive release of inflammatory factors further promotes periprosthetic bone destruction and bone loss;however,there are no basic studies on the efficacy of tabersonine on periprosthetic osteolysis. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of tabersonine on osteoclast activation,expression of inflammatory factors and inflammatory osteolysis induced by wear particles. METHODS:(1)Cell experiment:RAW264.7 cells were divided into four groups for culture.A complete medium was added in the control group.Osteoclast induction medium(50 ng/mL RANKL+complete medium)was added to the osteoclast induction group.1 and 5 μmol/L tabersonine was added for 4 hours,and then osteoclast induction medium was added to the low-and high-dose tabersonine groups,respectively.After 5 days of induction,tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining,F-actin staining and RT-PCR were performed.(2)Animal experiments:Twenty C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into sham operation group,osteolysis group,low-dose tabersonine group and high-dose tabersonine group(n=5 per group).Skull osteolysis model of the skull was established by injecting titanium pellets on the skull surface in the osteolysis group,low-dose tabersonine group and high-dose tabersonine group.On day 2 after model establishment,mice in the low-dose and high-dose tabersonine groups received intraperitoneal injections of 10 and 20 mg/kg tabersonine every 2 days,respectively.2 weeks after surgery,mouse sera were collected for detecting inflammatory factors(interleukin 1β,interleukin 6,and tumor necrosis factor α),and cranial bones were collected for micro-CT scan and bone parameter analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Cellular experiments:Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining and F-actin staining showed that compared with the osteoclast induction group,low-dose and high-dose tabersonine significantly inhibited osteoclast activation and bone resorption,and the inhibition was more significant in the high-dose tabersonine group.RT-PCR results showed that compared with the control group,the mRNA expressions of three kinds of inflammatory factors were increased in the osteoclast induction group(P<0.01).Compared with the osteoclast induction group,the mRNA expressions of three kinds of inflammatory factors were decreased in low-and high-dose tabersonine groups(P<0.01),and the decrease was more obvious in the high-dose tabersonine group.(2)Animal experiments:Compared with the sham operation group,the levels of three kinds of inflammatory factors were increased in the osteolysis group(P<0.01).Compared with the osteolysis group,the levels of three kinds of inflammatory factors were decreased in the low-and high-dose tabersonine groups(P<0.05,P<0.01),and the decrease was more obvious in the high-dose tabersonine group.The micro-CT scan results revealed that titanium particles caused the destruction of cranial osteolysis,and tabersonine could inhibit the osteolysis induced by titanium particles,especially in the high-dose tabersonine group.(3)The results confirm that tabersonine can enhance the osteolysis and bone destruction induced by titanium particles by inhibiting the release of inflammatory factors and down-regulating the bone absorption function of osteoclasts.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the clinical effect of blood flow restriction training on rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction to provide a reference for clinical practice. METHODS:Databases including CNKI,WanFang,PubMed,Web of Science and EBSCO were searched to collect randomized controlled trials of blood flow restriction training in the intervention of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction from inception to August 10,2022.Outcomes included knee muscle strength,knee muscle mass,and knee function evaluation,all of which were continuous variables.Two reviewers independently screened the literature and extracted data.Cochrane bias risk assessment tool and Physiotherapy Evidence Database Scale were used to evaluate the bias risk of the included articles.Meta-analysis was then performed using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS:A total of 9 publications were included,including 226 subjects,114 in the trial group and 112 in the control group.Meta-analysis results showed that compared with conventional resistance training,the blood flow restriction training group could significantly improve knee muscle strength[SMD=0.54,95%CI(0.29,0.79),P＜0.01],muscle mass[SMD=0.26,95%CI(0.06,0.46),P=0.01]and knee joint function[SMD=1.17,95%CI(0.53,1.80),P＜0.01].Subgroup analysis showed that only when the intervention time was more than 4 weeks,there were significant improvements in knee joint muscle strength[SMD=0.68,95%CI(0.38,0.97),P＜0.01]and muscle mass[SMD=0.38,95%CI(0.09,0.68),P=0.01]. CONCLUSION:Current evidence shows that blood flow restriction training can improve muscle strength and knee function in patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and reduce muscle atrophy.It is recommended that the postoperative intervention time should be more than 4 weeks to achieve better muscle strength and muscle mass improvement.

BACKGROUND:With the aging of the global population,the incidence rate of osteoporosis is also increasing.It is very important to further understand its pathogenesis and propose new therapeutic targets.Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis is closely related to the pathogenesis of some bone diseases,such as inflammatory arthritis,osteoporosis and osteoarthritis. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the previous studies on the mechanism of ferroptosis in osteoporosis,so as to provide new therapeutic ideas and potential therapeutic targets for osteoporosis. METHODS:The first author used the computer to search the documents published from 2000 to 2022 in CNKI,WanFang,VIP,PubMed and Web of Science with the key words of"ferroptosis,osteoporosis,osteoblasts,osteoclasts,iron chelators,reactive oxygen species,nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2,heme oxygenase-1,glutathione peroxidase 4,review"in Chinese and English.A total of 70 articles were finally included according to the inclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Ferroptosis is significantly different from necrosis,apoptosis and autophagy.In terms of cell morphology and function,it does not have the morphological characteristics of typical necrosis,nor does it have the characteristics of traditional apoptosis,such as cell contraction,chromatin condensation,the formation of apoptotic bodies and the disintegration of cytoskeleton.Contrary to autophagy,ferroptosis does not form a classical closed bilayer membrane structure(autophagic vacuole).Morphologically,ferroptosis is mainly manifested by obvious contraction of mitochondria,increased membrane density,and reduction or disappearance of mitochondrial cristae,which are different from other cell death modes.Iron overload can destroy bone homeostasis by significantly inhibiting osteogenic differentiation and stimulating osteoclast formation,leading to osteoporosis.Iron overload interferes with the differentiation of stem cells to osteoblasts,leading to a weakened osteoblast function and further imbalance of bone metabolism in the body,which eventually leads to osteoporosis.Stimulated by iron overload,osteoclast bone resorption is enhanced and bone loss exceeds new bone formation.Iron chelators have been proved to have osteoprotective effects by inhibiting osteoclast activity and stimulating osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts.Its potential mechanism is related to inhibiting osteoclast differentiation and promoting osteoblast differentiation.Antioxidants can prevent reactive oxygen species production and inhibit bone absorption,thus improving bone metabolism and effectively preventing osteoporosis.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals，of which 7 895（87.4%）were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140（12.6%）were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（ n=4 510，49.9%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（ n=2 340，25.9%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（ n=534，5.9%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（ n=405，4.5%）and Enterobacter cloacae（ n=327，3.6%）. The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%（2 095/4 452），21.0%（427/2 033）and 41.1%（58/141），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（58/4 510）and 13.1%（307/2 340）；62.1%（36/58）and 9.8%（30/307）of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 59.5%（241/405），while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 18.4%（98/534）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA（ χ2=20.489 and 20.252， P<0.001）. The prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA，CRAB，ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=11.953，81.183，10.404，5.915，12.415 and 6.459， P<0.01 or <0.05），while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions（per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan）than that in economically less-developed regions（per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=6.240， P=0.012）. Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different，and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, especially non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). With the popularization of low-dose CT and the improvement of people’s awareness of physical examinations, the number of detected pulmonary nodules is gradually increasing, and there is a greater demand for standardized diagnostic and treatment guidelines. On April 23, 2024, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network updated its clinical practice guidelines for NSCLC to the version 5. Compared with the version 5 in 2023, the version 5 in 2024 updates focus on diagnostic evaluation, perioperative systemic therapy, treatment of advanced NSCLC, and molecular marker testing, which will be interpreted in this article with the aim of providing the latest guidance and reference for the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer in China.

Abstract: To analyze the relationship between parenting behaviors and sleep problems of preschool children, so as to provide a strategic decision support for child growth and parenting behavior improvement. Methods: Using the questionnaire data of 27 200 preschool children parents selected from 11 cities in Hubei, Anhui and Jiangsu provinces in October 2017, parents parenting behavior was assessed by Parent Behavior Inventory (PBI), and children s sleep problems were assessed by Children s Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Logistic regression models. Results: The reporting rate of sleep problems among preschool children was 15.3%. After adjusting for confounding factors, maternal hostile/coercive parenting behavior scores (medium level: OR=1.38; high level: OR=1.86) and paternal hostile/coercive parenting behavior scores (medium level: OR=1.17; high level: OR=1.59) were positively correlated with sleep problems (P<0.05). Hostile/coercive parenting behaviors by their parents (maternal high level: the OR values were 1.75, 2.97, 1.86, and 2.75 respectively; paternal high level: OR values were 1.79, 1.91, 1.69, and 1.79 respectively) were positively associated with sleep problems in preschool children aged 3, 4, 5, and 6. Scores of parental support/engaged (fathers of 4yearold children medium level: OR=0.84; fathers of 5yearold children medium and high level: OR=0.84, 0.82) were negatively correlated with children aged 4 and 5 (P<0.05). High level maternal supportive/engaged and paternal hostile/coercive scores were positively associated with child sleep problems (OR=1.93); high level maternal hostile/coercive and paternal supportive/engaged scores were positively associated with child sleep problems (OR=1.93); high scores of parental hostile/coercive were positively correlated with child sleep problems (OR=2.60) (P<0.05). Conclusion Sleep problems among children are related to parenting behaviors, especially hostile/coercive parenting behaviors that increases the risk of sleep problems among children.
