Objective To analyze the effects of vesicoprostatic muscle(VPM)reconstruction on the early urinary control recovery and safety of patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy(RARP).Methods A total of 128 patients who underwent RARP in our hospital during Sep.1,2021 and Aug.31,2023 were enrolled and divided into the non-reconstruction group(n=64)and reconstruction group(n=64)using random number table method.The reconstruction group received Montsouris+VPM reconstruction surgery,while the non-reconstructive group underwent Montsouris surgery only.Urinary control and perioperative data were collected with telephone interview,outpatient follow-up and inpatient records.The two groups were matched using overlap weighting and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate urinary incontinence rates at 1,2 and 3 months after extubation.Early urinary control(3 months after extubation),operation time,intraoperative bleeding,positive rate of incision margin,and incidence of early postoperative complications(＜30 days)(Clavien-Dindo scale)were compared between the two groups.Results The recovery rate of urinary control at 1,2 and 3 months after extubation was significantly higher in the reconstruction group than that in the non-reconstruction group(33.9％vs.11.2％;46.7％vs.16.1％;70.6％vs.45.6％,P＜0.05),but the positive rate of resection margin was lower(16.1％vs.41.7％,P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in operation time,intraoperative bleeding and early postoperative complications between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion VPM reconstruction can improve urinary control recovery in RARP patients early after extubation without increasing the risk of surgery.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Objective To investigate the changing distribution and antibiotic resistance profiles of clinical isolates of Staphylococcus in hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was conducted for the clinical isolates of Staphylococcus according to the unified protocol of CHINET(China Antimicrobial Surveillance Network)using disk diffusion method and commercial automated systems.The CHINET antimicrobial resistance surveillance data from 2015 to 2021 were interpreted according to the 2021 CLSI breakpoints and analyzed using WHONET 5.6.Results During the period from 2015 to 2021,a total of 204,771 nonduplicate strains of Staphylococcus were isolated,including 136,731(66.8％)strains of Staphylococcus aureus and 68,040(33.2％)strains of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(CNS).The proportions of S.aureus isolates and CNS isolates did not show significant change.S.aureus strains were mainly isolated from respiratory specimens(38.9±5.1)％,wound,pus and secretions(33.6±4.2)％,and blood(11.9±1.5)％.The CNS strains were predominantly isolated from blood(73.6±4.2)％,cerebrospinal fluid(12.1±2.5)％,and pleural effusion and ascites(8.4±2.1)％.S.aureus strains were mainly isolated from the patients in ICU(17.0±7.3)％,outpatient and emergency(11.6±1.7)％,and department of surgery(11.2±0.9)％,whereas CNS strains were primarily isolated from the patients in ICU(32.2±9.7)％,outpatient and emergency(12.8±4.7)％,and department of internal medicine(11.2±1.9)％.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains was 32.9％in S.aureus(MRSA)and 74.1％in CNS(MRCNS).Over the 7-year period,the prevalence of MRSA decreased from 42.1％to 29.2％,and the prevalence of MRCNS decreased from 82.1％to 68.2％.MRSA showed higher resistance rates to all the antimicrobial agents tested except trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole than methicillin-susceptible S.aureus(MSSA).Over the 7-year period,MRSA strains showed decreasing resistance rates to gentamicin,rifampicin,and levofloxacin,MRCNS showed decreasing resistance rates to gentamicin,erythromycin,rifampicin,and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,but increasing resistance rate to levofloxacin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were detected.The prevalence of linezolid-resistant MRCNS increased from 0.2％to 2.3％over the 7-year period.Conclusions Staphylococcus remains the major pathogen among gram-positive bacteria.MRSA and MRCNS were still the principal antibiotic-resistant gram-positive bacteria.No S.aureus isolates were found resistant to vancomycin or linezolid,but linezolid-resistant strains have been detected in MRCNS isolates,which is an issue of concern.

Objective To construct and verify a nomogram model for predicting social urinary control recovery in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) immediately after extubation. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 64 patients diagnosed with prostate cancer and treated by a single surgeon. The immediate urinary control status of the patients after removal of the catheter was evaluated, and LASSO regression was used for feature screening. Multiple Logistic regression was performed on the selected features to determine independent risk factors and establish a predictive model. And the discriminability, calibration, and clinical practicality of the model were evaluated using receiver operating curve (ROC), Hosmer Lemeshow test and calibration curve, and clinical decision curve (DCA) analysis. Results The variables in the outcome prediction model include D'Amico grading and distance of the levator muscle. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.742 (95%CI, 0.500 to 0.913, P < 0.001), indicating that the model had good discriminability. The calibration curve indicated that the model had good calibration ability. The DCA curve showed good clinical practicality. Conclusion The clinical predictive model developed inthis study can predict the recovery of immediate social urinary control in patients with RARP after surgery, which can further quantify the probability of achieving immediate social continence.

Neuromuscular diseases refer to a class of congenital or acquired diseases mainly involving the spinal cord anterior horn motor cells, peripheral nerves, neuromuscular junction and skeletal muscle.The common symptoms and signs include respiratory failure, skeletal malformations, joint contracture, gait abnormalities and movement disorders, and so on.Children in PICU are in more critical conditions.Early systematic, standardized and individualized rehabilitation training can promote the recovery of neuromuscular function, prevent or reduce complications, reduce the incidence and severity of late limb dysfunction, as well as improve the long-term quality of life of children.This review summarized the rehabilitation training of children with neuromuscular disease in PICU.

We report a case of a long-term survivor of heart transplant who developed severe COVID-19 and was treated with a traditional Chinese medicine combined with conventional medicine. Throughout the treatment， the patient received active conventional medical treatment， and traditional Chinese medicine interventions included tonifying qi， invigorating the spleen and transforming phlegm， promoting yang and eliminating stagnation， resolving dampness and dissipating phlegm， and promoting blood circulation and eliminating stasis. The main therapeutic principles adopted were to recuperating depleted yang and rescuing the patient from collapse and to resolve phlegm and promote water. Pogezilong Xuanbai Chengqi Decoction （破格子龙宣白承气汤） with modifications was administered. In summary， it is crucial to the timely adjust the immunosuppressive regimen， combine use of various anti-infective agents with a focus on COVID-19， to protect of cardiac and renal function， and to integrate traditional Chinese medicine in the entire treatment process. As this case is rare， the diagnostic and therapeutic methods in traditional Chinese medicine， the use of immunosuppressive agents， and follow-up monitoring strategies can be a valuable reference.

This paper reported a case of severe COVID-19 in the recovery stage with acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated by integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine， with the intention of shedding light on the clinical diagnosis and treatment of similar conditions. The patient， who had acute lymphoblastic leukemia， developed COVID-19 infection during the bone marrow suppression period after chemotherapy. Treatment with western medicine was mainly anti-infection， symptomatic management， and supportive care. During the recovery stage， considering the patient's chemotherapy history and disease progression， the overall syndrome was identified as deficiency of both qi and yin and binding of phlegm and blood. Based on the “state-target” combined treatment strategy， herbal prescriptions were selected and modified to address the “deficiency state”， “disease target”， and “symptom target”. In addition to western medicine， the patient was administered with Shengmai Powder （生脉散） and Compound Zhebei Granules （复方浙贝颗粒） in its modifications to boost qi， nourish yin， and reinforce healthy qi， nourish and cool the blood， ultimately achieving satisfactory therapeutic effects.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical bacterial isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2021.Methods:The clinical bacterial strains isolated from blood culture from member hospitals of Blood Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System (BRICS) were collected during January 2021 to December 2021. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). WHONET 5.6 was used to analyze data.Results:During the study period, 11 013 bacterial strains were collected from 51 hospitals, of which 2 782 (25.3%) were Gram-positive bacteria and 8 231 (74.7%) were Gram-negative bacteria. The top 10 bacterial species were Escherichia coli (37.6%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (18.9%), Staphylococcus aureus (9.8%), coagulase-negative Staphylococci (6.3%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3.6%), Enterococcus faecium (3.6%), Acinetobacter baumannii (2.8%), Enterococcus faecalis (2.7%), Enterobacter cloacae (2.5%) and Klebsiella spp (2.1%). The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus aureus were 25.3% and 76.8%, respectively. No glycopeptide- and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci was detected; more than 95.0% of Staphylococcus aureus were sensitive to ceftobiprole. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci strains were detected. The rates of extended spectrum B-lactamase (ESBL)-producing isolated in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis were 49.6%, 25.5% and 39.0%, respectively. The prevalence rates of carbapenem-resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 2.2% and 15.8%, respectively; 7.9% of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae was resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination. Ceftobiprole demonstrated excellent activity against non-ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Aztreonam/avibactam was highly active against carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The prevalence rate of carbapenem-resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii was 60.0%, while polymyxin and tigecycline showed good activity against Acinetobacter baumannii (5.5% and 4.5%). The prevalence of carbapenem-resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 18.9%. Conclusions:The BRICS surveillance results in 2021 shows that the main pathogens of blood stream infection in China are gram-negative bacteria, in which Escherichia coli is the most common. The MRSA incidence shows a further decreasing trend in China and the overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is low. The prevalence of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is still on a high level, but the trend is downwards.

Objective:To investigate the effect of local anesthesia in patients with a PI-RADS score of 5 and ECOG score ≥2 for prostate puncture.Methods:Retrospective analysis of case data of 33 patients admitted to the Subei People's Hospital for prostate puncture from April 2020 to April 2022. Age (82.5±3.6) years. There were 18 cases with hypertensive disease, 8 cases with diabetes mellitus, and 6 cases with both diabetes mellitus and hypertensive disease. Body mass index (25.2±3.5) kg/m 2. prostate-specific antigen (PSA)(131.5±69.7) ng/ml. prostate volume (38.5±21.4) ml. all patients had a PI-RADS score of 5 on multiparametric magnetic resonance (mpMRI) and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score ≥2. All 33 cases in this group underwent trans-perineal targeted prostate puncture using local anesthesia at the tip of the prostate. The visual analog score (VAS) and visual numeric score (VNS) were applied by the same surgeon to assess the patient's pain level and satisfaction at the time of puncture (VAS-1 and VNS-1) and 30 min after puncture (VAS-2 and VNS-2), and to record the duration of the procedure and the occurrence of postoperative complications. Results:In this group of 33 cases, the VAS-1 score was (1.9±0.3) and the VAS-2 score was (0.1±0.2); the VNS-1 score was (2.9±0.2) and the VNS-2 score was (3.9±0.1). Postoperative pathological results indicated that one of the 33 patients had a negative puncture result (pathology report indicating interstitial inflammation), while the rest of the patients had a positive puncture pathology report (puncture pathology report indicating prostate cancer), with a positive rate of 97%. One case of postoperative carnal haematuria occurred, which gradually improved after the patient was advised to drink water and take alpha-blockers. No perineal hematoma occurred, and all patients did not suffer complications such as urinary tract infection, urinary retention, azoospermia, vagal reaction, and infectious shock.Conclusion:In patients with a PI-RADS score of 5 and ECOG score ≥2, the use of single-hole local anesthesia for performing trans-perineal targeted puncture biopsy has the advantages of good paroxysmal pain and high safety.

Objective:To explore the quality differences of systemic biopsy specimens from different regions in prostate biopsy.Methods:The data of 806 patients who underwent transperineal prostate biopsy from May 2013 to December 2020 in Northern Jiangsu People’s Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. The median age of the patients was 72 (66, 77) years old, median PSA was 18.4 (10.3, 34.2) ng/ml, and prostate volume was 43 (32, 56) ml. Tissue quality were graded from low to high as follows. One score means multiple fragments with fragmented tissue ≤5 mm. Two scores means at least one fragment >5 mm and ≤10 mm. Three scores means at least one fragment >10 mm. The prostate specimens fragmentation scores and the length of the specimens in different regions of the prostate were collected to analyze.Results:A total of 806 patients were included in our study. The number of tissues was 8 866, and the mean length of tissues was 1.2 (1.0, 1.5) cm. The tissues of different region were scored according to the scoring criteria, of which 618 (7.0%) prostate tissues were scored as 1 score, 2 720 (30.7%) tissues were scored as 2 scores, and 5 528 (62.4%) tissues were scored as 3 scores. In the prostate apex, tissue quality of 1 score accounted for 11.7%(94/806), 2 scores accounted for 34.7%(280/806), and 3 scores accounted for 53.6%(432/806). While in the prostate base, tissue quality of 1 score accounted for 6.5%(524/8 060), 2 scores accounted for 30.3%(2 449/8 060), and 3 scores accounted for 63.2%(5 096/8 060)( H=35.850, P<0.05). The mean length of the prostate apical tissue was 1.0 (0.8, 1.3) cm, which was significantly shorter than prostate basal tissue of 1.2(1.0, 1.5) cm ( Z=-11.353, P<0.05). Conclusions:In transperineal prostate biopsy, the apical tissue was more fragmented and shorter, prostate apex should be concerned.
