Objective:To explore the antitumor effect of ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine on diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and its mechanism.Methods:The 6-week-old female BALB/c mice were selected, and the bilateral murine subcutaneous B-cell lymphoma model was established with murine B-cell lymphoma A20 cells. The subcutaneous tumor-bearing mice were randomly divided into untreated group (without treatment), ADU-S100 in situ vaccine treatment group (intratumoral injection of interferon gene stimulating factor agonist ADU-S100), doxorubicin in situ vaccine treatment group (intratumoral injection of doxorubicin), and ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine treatment group (intratumoral injection of ADU-S100 and doxorubicin) by using random number table method, with 5 mice in each group. The right tumors of the bilateral subcutaneous tumor-bearing mice were defined as proximal tumors, and the left tumors of the bilateral subcutaneous tumor-bearing mice were defined as distal tumors. Only the proximal tumors were treated via the intratumoral route, and the distal tumors were not treated. On day 23 after tumor inoculation, the percentages of CD11c + dendritic cells (DC), CD8 + CD11c + DC and CD80 + CD11c + DC in the spleen of mice in each group were detected by flow cytometry. The splenocytes of mice in each group were stimulated with A20 tumor cell lysate in vitro, the percentages of 5'-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine-positive (EdU +) cells and tumor necrosis factor-α-positive (TNF-α +) cells in CD8 + T cells in each in situ vaccine treatment group were detected by flow cytometry, and the killing effect of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) in each group was measured by using the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) cytotoxicity assay kit. The mice treated with ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine were intraperitoneally injected with anti-mouse CD8α (clone 53-6.7) mAb or isotype control on days 7, 12 and 17 after tumor inoculation to eliminate CD8 + cells. On day 23 after tumor inoculation, the proximal and distal tumor volumes of mice in the ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine combined with anti-mouse CD8α (clone 53-6.7) mAb or isotype control treatment group were measured, the percentages of CD8 + T cells and CD8 + CD11c + DC in the spleen of tumor-bearing mice in these two groups were detected by flow cytometry, and the infiltration of CD8 + T cells in the tumor tissues from these two groups was detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. Results:On days 11, 14, 17, 20 and 23 after tumor inoculation, the proximal and distal tumor volumes of mice in each treated group were lower than those in the untreated group (all P < 0.05). The proportions of CD11c + DC in the spleen of the untreated group, ADU-S100 in situ vaccine treatment group, doxorubicin in situ vaccine treatment group and ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine treatment group were (4.92±0.63)%, (7.54±0.84)%, (7.45±0.86)% and (11.63±0.85)%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 72.30, P < 0.001); the proportions of CD8 + CD11c + DC were (1.36±0.34)%, (4.02±0.43)%, (4.22±0.61)% and (6.11±0.73)%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 76.09, P < 0.001); the proportions of CD80 + CD11c + DC were (0.51±0.24)%, (1.69±0.23)%, (1.82±0.25)% and (4.09±0.39)%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 167.40, P < 0.001). The CTL responses and the proportion of EdU + cells and TNF-α + cells in CD8 + T cells in each in situ vaccine treatment group were higher than those in the untreated group (all P < 0.05). Furthermore, the enhanced CTL responses and the increased proportion of EdU + cells and TNF-α + cells in CD8 + T cells were observed in the ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine treatment group as compared to the ADU-S100 in situ vaccine treatment group and doxorubicin in situ vaccine treatment group (all P < 0.05). The proportions of CD8 + T cells and CD8 + CD11c + DC in the spleen of mice treated with ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine and anti-mouse CD8α mAb were lower than those in ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine and isotype control group (both P < 0.05) and both proximal and distal tumor volumes of mice treated with ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine and anti-mouse CD8α mAb were larger than those in ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine and isotype control group (both P < 0.05). Conclusions:ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine can induce profound regression of proximal tumors in bilateral murine subcutaneous B-cell lymphoma model and generate systemic immune responses capable of partially inhibiting distant tumor growth, and the antitumor efficacy of ADU-S100/doxorubicin in situ vaccine may require CD8 + CD11c + DC-mediated CD8 + T cell immune responses.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive 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:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.

Objective To explore whether stimulator of interferon genes(STING)agonist ADU-S100 could enhance the antitumor immune response of a chitosan(CS)nanoparticle-mediated DNA vaccine containing a tumor-specific antigen Dickkopf-related protein 1(DKK1)in multiple myeloma(MM).Methods CS-DNA nanoparticles were prepared by using the compound coprecipitation method.The particle sizes and Zeta potential of the CS-DNA nanoparticles were measured by using the Zetasizer Nano-ZS laser particle size analyzer.The DNA protection effect and in vivo DNA expression efficiency of the CS-DNA nanoparticles were assessed by using gel retardation assay and Western blot,respectively.The lentiviruses expressing human DKK1(hDKK1)genes were used to establish MPC-11 cells(MPC-11-hDKK1)which stably expressed hDKK1,and the MPC-11-hDKK1 cells were subcutaneously given to mice to construct tumor models.The tumor-bearing mice were randomly divided into a control group(intramuscular injection of CS-pcDNA3.1),an ADU-S100 immunization group(subcutaneous injection of ADU-S100),a CS-pDKK1 immunization group(intramuscular injection of CS-pDKK1)and an ADU-S1OO/CS-pDKK1 co-immunization group(intramuscular injection of CS-pDKK1+subcutaneous injection of ADU-S100),with 5 mice in each group.The tumor-bearing mice in each group were immunized 3 times at 10-day intervals according to the corresponding immunization schedule.The size of tumor was measured every week.On day 42 after MPC-11-hDKK1 cell inoculation,the tumor weight of mice in each immunization group was measured;the percentages of CD11c+dendritic cell(DC),CD8+CD11c+DC and major histocompatibility complex class Ⅱ(MHCII)+CD11c+DC subsets in the spleen of mice in each immunization group were detected by using flow cytometry.The splenocytes of mice in each group were stimulated with recombinant hDKK-1 protein in vitro,the percentage of EdU+cells in CD8+T lymphocytes in each immunization group was detected by using flow cytometry,and the killing effect of cytotoxic T lymphocyte(CTL)in each group was assessed by using the lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)cytotoxicity assay kit.Results The particle size and Zeta potential of the CS-DNA nanoparticles were(204.3±2.31)nm and(15.47±1.01)mV,respectively.Gel retardation assay showed that DNA enveloped in CS nanoparticles could be completely retarded.Western blot analysis indicated that CS-DNA nanoparticles could be effectively expressed in vivo.The relative expression of DKK1 protein was significantly higher in MPC-11-hDKK1 cells than in MPC-11-Ctrl cells(P＜0.05).On days 7 and 14 after MPC-11-hDKK1 cell inoculation,there was no significant difference in tumor volume of mice between the ADU-S100 immunization group,CS-pDKK1 immunization group,ADU-S100/CS-pDKK1 co-immunization group and the control group(P＞0.05);on days 21,28,35 and 42 after MPC-11-hDKK1 cell inoculation,the tumor volumes of mice in the ADU-S100 immunization group,CS-pDKK1 immunization group and ADU-S100/CS-pDKK1 co-immunization group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05);the tumor volume of mice in the ADU-S100/CS-pDKK1 co-immunization group was significantly lower than that in the ADU-S100 immunization group and CS-pDKK1 immunization group(P＜0.05).On day 42 after MPC-11-hDKK1 cell inoculation,the tumor weight of mice in the ADU-S100 immunization group,CS-pDKK1 immunization group and ADU-S1 OO/CS-pDKK1 co-immunization group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05);the tumor weight of mice in the ADU-S100/CS-pDKK1 co-immunization group was significantly lower than that in the ADU-S100 immunization group and CS-pDKK1 immunization group(P＜0.05).The proportions of CD11c+DC,CD8+CD11c+DC and MHCII+CD11c+DC subsets in the spleen of mice in the ADU-S100 immunization group,CS-pDKK1 immunization group and ADU-S100/CS-pDKK1 co-immunization group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The proportions of CD11c+DC,CD8+CD11c+DC and MHCII+CD11c+DC subsets in the spleen of mice in the ADU-S100/CS-pDKK1 co-immunization group were significantly higher than those in the ADU-S100 immunization group and CS-pDKK1 immunization group(P＜0.05).The CTL killing effect and the proportion of EdU+cells in CD8+T lymphocytes in the ADU-S100 immunization group,CS-pDKK1 immunization group and ADU-S1OO/CS-pDKK1 co-immunization group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05);the CTL killing effect and the proportion of EdU+cells in CD8+T lymphocytes in the ADU-S100/CS-pDKK1 co-immunization group were significantly higher than those in the ADU-S100 immunization group and CS-pDKK1 immunization group(P＜0.05).Conclusion STING agonist ADU-S100 can significantly improve the antitumor immunity of the CS-pDKK1 nanoparticle vaccine in MM,and this vaccine strategy provides a potential treatment approach for MM.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

To investigate the existence of tick-borne pathogens infection of rodents at the border of China and the Demo-cratic People's Republic of Korea(DPRK).PCR was used to detect the spotted fever group rickettsiae(SFGR)ompA gene,Ehrlichia chaffeensis(Ec)and Anaplasma phagocytophilum(Ap)16S rRNA,Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis(CNm)groEL gene,Bartonella(Ba)rpoB gene,and Francisella tularensis(Ft)fopA gene in rodents samples collected from Ji'an of Jilin province and Kuandian of Liaoning Province.The positivity rates of 132 wild rats spleen samples,SFGR,Ec,Ap,CNm,Ba,and Ft were 9.85％,12.88％,5.30％,3.79％,51.52％,and 6.06％,respectively,with statistical differences in in-fection rates(x2=149.236,P=0.000).The infection rate of Ba was the highest in wild rats in this area.There was no signifi-cant difference in the infection rate of SFGR,Ec,Ap,CNm,and Ft among different rats species,but there were significant differences in the infection rate of Ba(x2=13.36,P=0.010).The infection rate of Apodemus agrarius was the highest.A-mong 132 wild rats specimens,the coinfection rate of the two pathogens was 15.9％(21/132),with Ba as the main species(15/132),and two cases of coinfection with three pathogens were detected.The infection of six tick-borne pathogens is common in wild rats at the China/DPRK border.Co-infection of two or three pathogens indicates a risk of multiple tick-borne pathogens and mixed natural foci of multiple tick-borne infec-tious diseases.

Objective:To explore the prevalence and independent associated factors of vascular calcification (VC) in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients of stage 3-5.Methods:It was a single-center cross-sectional observational study. Non-dialysis stage 3-5 CKD patients ≥18 years old who were admitted to the Department of Nephrology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from May 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022 with VC evaluation were enrolled. The patients' general information, laboratory examination and imaging data were collected. Coronary artery calcification (CAC), thoracic aorta calcification (TAC), abdominal aorta calcification (AAC), carotid artery calcification and aortic valve calcification (AVC) were evaluated by cardiac-gated electron-beam CT (EBCT) scans, lateral lumbar x-ray, cervical macrovascular ultrasound and echocardiography, respectively. The differences in clinical data and the prevalence of VC at different sites of patients with different CKD stages were compared, and the prevalence of VC at different sites of patients in different age groups [youth group (18-44 years old), middle-aged group (45-64 years old) and elderly group (≥65 years old)] and patients with or without diabetes were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyse the independent associated factors of VC for different areas.Results:A total of 206 patients aged (51±14) years were included, including 129 (62.6%) males. There were 44 patients with CKD stage 3 (21.4%), 51 patients with CKD stage 4 (24.8%), and 111 patients with CKD stage 5 (53.9%). CKD was caused by chronic glomerulonephritis [104 cases (50.5%)], diabetic kidney damage [35 cases (17.0%)], hypertensive kidney damage [29 cases (14.1%)] and others [38 cases (18.4%)]. Among 206 patients, 131 (63.6%) exhibited cardiovascular calcification, and the prevalence of CAC, TAC, AAC, carotid artery calcification, and AVC was 37.9%, 43.7%, 37.9%, 35.9% and 9.7%, respectively. The overall prevalence of VC in young, middle-aged and elderly patients was 24.6%, 73.6% and 97.4%, respectively. With the increase of age, the prevalence of VC in each site gradually increased, and the increasing trend was statistically significant (all P<0.001). The overall prevalence of VC in CKD patients with diabetes was 92.5% (62/67), and the prevalence of VC at each site in the patients with diabetes was significantly higher than that in the patients without diabetes (all P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age (every 10 years increase, OR=2.51, 95% CI 1.77-3.56, P<0.001), hypertension ( OR=5.88, 95% CI 1.57-22.10, P=0.009), and diabetes ( OR=4.66, 95% CI 2.10-10.35, P<0.001) were independently correlated with CAC; Age (every 10 years increase, OR=6.43, 95% CI 3.64-11.36, P<0.001) and hypertension ( OR=6.09, 95% CI 1.33-27.84, P=0.020) were independently correlated with TAC; Female ( OR=0.23, 95% CI 0.07-0.72, P=0.011), age (every 10 years increase, OR=3.90, 95% CI 2.42-6.29, P<0.001), diabetes ( OR=5.37, 95% CI 2.19-13.19, P<0.001) and serum magnesium ( OR=0.01,95% CI 0-0.35, P=0.014) were independently correlated with AAC. Moreover, age and diabetes were independently correlated with carotid artery calcification, AVC and overall VC Conclusions:The prevalence of VC in non-dialysis CKD patients of stage 3-5 is 63.59%, of which CAC reaches 37.9%, TAC is the most common one (43.7%), while AVC is the least one (9.7%). Age and diabetes are the independent associated factors for VC of all sites except TAC, while hypertension is an independent associated factor for both CAC and TAC.
