		                        			Objective:To establish an environmental management strategy for the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia from the perspective of etiological characteristics and to verify its application effect.Methods:Based on a sampling survey, this study constructed preventive management strategies for ventilator-associated pneumonia by blocking pathogen characteristics from the perspective of both colonization and infection management in patients. From July 2021 to June 2023, a non-synchronous randomized controlled study was conducted, including a control group of 59 cases and an experimental group of 57 cases from ICU of Tianjin Teda Hospital, all of them were mechanically ventilated patients. The effectiveness of the strategy was confirmed.Results:In the control group, there were 35 males and 24 females, with an average age of (46.97 ± 18.84) years. In the experimental group, there were 39 males and 18 females, with an average age of (47.49 ± 13.85) years. During the study period, there were 9 cases of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in the control group and 2 cases in the experimental group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (exact odds ratio=0.031). The duration of mechanical ventilation in the experimental group (122.41 ± 18.36) h, which was shorter than that in the control group (187.62 ± 18.05) h, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=19.28, P<0.05). The length of ICU stay in the experimental group was (8.38 ± 0.79) d, in the control group was (10.99 ± 1.10) d, the difference between them was statistically significant ( t=14.66, P<0.05). On the 7th day, there were 7 cases of positive pathogenic bacteria in sputum culture in the experimental group, which was significantly different from the 29 cases in the control group ( χ2=16.73, P<0.05). Conclusions:The vector management strategy for preventing ventilator-associated pneumonia by blocking etiological characteristics can reduce the incidence of VAP, shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay, and reduce the pathogen load in the sputum of mechanically ventilated patients on the 7th day.

		                        			Low-level viremia (LLV) is a hot and difficult topic that has gradually attracted attention in the field of chronic hepatitis B for evaluating antiviral therapy response in recent years. The presence of LLV may increase drug-resistant mutations, the progression of liver fibrosis, and potentially the development of liver cancer following antiviral therapy. Natural history of chronic HBV infection patients also have LLV, but it is unclear whether these patients are also at risk of disease progression, what the risk is, and whether early antiviral therapy is necessary and beneficial. Therefore, this article provides a reference for the all-encompassing management of this group of patients by reviewing the prevalence and impact of LLV in chronically HBV-infected patients' natural histories.

		                        			Objective To investigate the mechanism of carbapenems resistance in Serratia marces-cens strains isolated from Wenzhou and their epidemiological characteristics.Methods 147 non-duplicated Serratia marcescens isolates were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University during 2006 to 2012.The antimicrobial susceptibility test for all isolates was performed by using Vitek2 Compact to screen carbapenems-resistant Serratia marcescens strains.The minimum inhibitory concentrations ( MICs) of 10 commonly used antibiotics against carbapenems-resistant Serratia marcescens strains were de-termined by agar dilution method.The phenotypes of carbapenemase were analyzed by using the modified Hodge test.PCR analysis was used to detect the genes encoding carbapenemase, AmpC enzyme, efflux pump and outer membrane proteins.The changes of MICs before and after using CCCP efflux pump inhibitor were measured by agar dilution method.Outer membrane proteins were detected by SDS-PAGE.Carbapene-ms resistance genes were transferred from carbapenems-resistant Serratia marcescens strains to recipient strains by conjugation.The transconjugants were amplified by PCR and measured for MICs.Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis ( PFGE) was used to analyze homology among strains.Results 11 isolates resistant to car-bapenems were screened out from 147 Serratia marcescens isolates and all of them were resistant to penicil-lins, cephalosporins and ertapenem.10 out of the 11 isolates were both resistant to imipenem and meropen-em, but remained susceptible to fluoroquinolones and aminoglycoside.Among the 11 isolates, 10 carried blaKPC-2 gene, 1 carried blaIMP-1 gene, 8 harbored both blaEBC and blaMOX genes, 1 harbored both blaEBC and blaDHA genes, and 1 carried blaEBC , blaMOX and blaDHA genes.No additional genes were identified by PCR.The MICs of imipenem to 7 isolates and the MICs of ertapenem to 3 isolates were respectively decreased by 4-64 folds and 8-256 folds after using CCCP.CCCP had no effects on the MICs of meropenem.Loss of outer membrane protein was not detected among the 11 isolates.The blaKPC-2 genes were successfully transferred from 7 isolates into recipient strains.The MICs against the transconjugants were higher than those against the recipient strains in varying degrees.PFGE analysis demonstrated that 8 out of 11 Serratia marcescens strains belonged to one clonotype.Conclusion KPC-2 carbapenemase played an essential role in carbapenems re-sistance in Serratia marcescens strains isolated from Wenzhou.Attention should be paid to the clonal spread of KPC-2 and its horizontal transmission in Wenzhou.
