Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is a condition characterized by the blockage of urine flow from the kidney to the ureter.With advancements in endoscopic technology, robotic-assisted laparoscopic dismembered pyeloplasty has become the dominant approach.However, approximately 10% of patients who undergo pyeloplasty still experience treatment failure, often due to long-segment proximal ureteral strictures (length greater than 2 cm).This increases the difficulty and risk of subsequent surgeries.In the past, ileal ureter replacement or kidney autotransplantation procedures were used as alternatives to shorten or replace the ureter.However, these procedures are associated with metabolic and vascular complications and are not always preferred.A pelvic flap, which utilizes the enlarged wall of the renal pelvis, is a good solution for bridging longer segments of a diseased ureter.This article reviews the specific applications of pelvic flap pyeloplasty in the existing literature and summarizes the technical improvements and research progress of renal pelvic flap pyeloplasty in our center to provide a reference for clinical application.

Objective The main points of diagnosis and treatment of ureterocutaneous fistula after in situ bladder operation were discussed based on clinical data and literature.Methods This report presents the data of a patient who developed a ureterocutaneous fistula 10 years after an in situ bladder procedure at Yuechi County People's Hospital.Results A 77-year-old male underwent laparoscopic cystectomy with orthotopic ileal neobladder for bladder cancer.The case manifested as fluid leakage from the original surgical incision,initially misdiagnosed as abdominal wall sinus.After right nephrectomy due to non-functional kidney,the fistula healed.Conclusion Ureterocutaneous fistulas are commonly associated with kidney transplantation and postoperative complications of upper urinary tract such as calculi and xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis.Fistulography can be conclusive for this condition.Prompt identification and repair of urinary tract injuries are crucial.

Objective To investigate the biomechanical factors of the lower limbs that affect the mechanical energy of baseball batting.Methods C3D data were collected using a motion capture system and imported into Visual 3D to establish a Hanavan multi-rigid-body human model and a rigid-body model of the bat.Using a prepared pipeline command,the angular velocities and joint torques of the hip,knee,ankle joints,and trunk around the X,Y,and Z axes were calculated and exported.Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was performed between independent and dependent variables using SPSS,and the factors and dependent variables were incorporated into the regression model.Results The top four independent variables that had the greatest impact on the mechanical energy of the bat were as follows:x19 right ankle joint plantar flexion/dorsiflexion torque(β=91.97),x2 left ankle joint inversion/eversion torque(β=91.74),x25 right hip joint flexion/extension torque(β=91.58),and x3 left ankle joint internal rotation/external rotation torque(β=91.50).Conclusions There is a strong correlation between the right hip joint flexion/extension torque and mechanical work of the bat.The batter transmits energy to the upper limbs by producing a right hip joint extension torque to rotate the trunk and pelvis.There is a close relationship between the adduction and abduction torques of the left ankle joint and mechanical work of the bat,which are used for body braking in the early stages of batting and body rotation in later stages.It is necessary to conduct specific strength training for the adductors of the left ankle joint,extensors of the right hip joint,and plantar flexors of the right ankle joint to enhance batting power.

This paper summarized Professor YE Jianzhou's experience in treating atopic dermatitis （AD） in children with the method of regulating the heart and treating the spirit. According to the clinical manifestations of itching-sleep psychological disorders in children with AD， and the physiological characteristics of "heart qi is prone to hyperactivity" and "liver qi is prone to hyperactivity" in children， it is believed that heart and spirit disharmony is an important pathogenesis of AD in children.From the concept of holism in traditional Chinese medicine， the principle of regulating the heart and treating the spirit has been proposed for treatment of AD in children， which is based on the theory of "the five zang （脏） organs store the spirit". In the acute stage， it is recommended to clear the heart， drain fire and calm the spirit with self-made Qingxin Ningshen Decoction （清心宁神汤） in modifications. In the chronic stage， the method of nourishing the heart， unblocking the meridians and calming the spirit is recommended， by using self-made Yangxin Anshen Decoction （养心安神汤） with modifications. The method to tranquilize the heart， subdue yang and contain the spirit should be implemented throughout the entire treatment， and yang-subduing and spirit-containing medicinals such as Duanlonggu （Os Draconis Praeparatum）， Duanmuli （Concha Ostreae Praeparatum） and Zhenzhumu （Concha Margaritiferae Usta） are usually used to treat the body and the spirit simultaneously. All these are offered to provide new ideas for the individualized treatment of children with AD.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility,safety and effectiveness of robot-assisted laparo-scopic buccal mucosa graft ureteroplasty in the treatment of complex long proximal ureteral stricture.Methods:The clinical data of 20 patients with proximal ureteral stricture undergoing robot-assisted lapa-roscopic buccal mucosa graft ureteroplasty admitted to the Department of Urology,Peking University First Hospital and Beijing Jiangong Hospital from July 2022 to January 2023 were prospectively collected and analyzed.Intraoperative conditions,postoperative complications and follow-up data were also recorded and analyzed.Results:The operations under robot-assisted laparoscopy were performed successfully in all the 20 patients without conversion to traditional laparoscopic surgery or open surgery.The study in-cluded 14 males and 6 females with a mean age of(41±11)years(range:19 to 60 years)and a mean body mass index of(24.3±3.6)kg/m2(range:18.2 to 31.8 kg/m2).There were 9 cases on the left side and 11 cases on the right side.The strictures of all the patients were located in the proximal segment of the ureter(including the ureteropelvic junction).The mean preoperative serum creatinine was(92.2±23.3)μmol/L(range:49.2 to 138.9 μmol/L),and the mean length of ureteral stricture was(2.8±0.9)cm(range:1.0 to 4.0 cm).Ten patients had previously undergone unsuccessful reconstructive surgery.During the operation,12 patients received posteriorly augmented anastomosis with ventral onlay.The mean length of the buccal mucosa graft harvested during the operation was(3.1±0.6)cm(range:2.0 to 4.3 cm),and the median width was 1.5 cm(range:1.0 to 2.0 cm).The omentum flap was used to wrap the reconstructed ureteral segment in all the 20 cases.The median operative time was 154 min(range:113 to 300 min),and the median estimated blood loss was 45 mL(range:0 to 100 mL).The median postoperative hospital stay was 4 d(range:4 to 14 d).The mean postoperative follow-up time was(15.0±1.7)months(range:12.5 to 17.9 months),and the surgical success rate was 100.0％in this study.After surgery,11 patients reported mild discomfort at the oral donor site,2 patients deve-loped urinary tract infection,and no postoperative complications were reported in the other 7 patients.The mean serum creatinine was(90.9±23.9)μmol/L(range:60.0 to 153.0 μmol/L)six months after surgery.Conclusion:Robot-assisted laparoscopic buccal mucosa graft ureteroplasty for the treatment of complex long proximal ureteral stricture has satisfactory efficacy without severe complications,which has shown good feasibility,safety and effectiveness.However,large sample studies and long-term follow-up are still needed to evaluate its long-term efficacy.

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 distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of the common pathogens isolated from urine from 2015 to 2021 in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program.Methods The bacterial strains were isolated from urine and identified routinely in 51 hospitals across China in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 2015 to 2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility was determined by Kirby-Bauer method,automatic microbiological analysis system and E-test according to the unified protocol.Results A total of 261 893 nonduplicate strains were isolated from urine specimen from 2015 to 2021,of which gram-positive bacteria accounted for 23.8％(62 219/261 893),and gram-negative bacteria 76.2％(199 674/261 893).The most common species were E.coli(46.7％),E.faecium(10.4％),K.pneumoniae(9.8％),E.faecalis(8.7％),P.mirabilis(3.5％),P.aeruginosa(3.4％),SS.agalactiae(2.6％),and E.cloacae(2.1％).The strains were more frequently isolated from inpatients versus outpatients and emergency patients,from females versus males,and from adults versus children.The prevalence of ESBLs-producing strains in E.coli,K.pneumoniae and P.mirabilis was 53.2％,52.8％and 37.0％,respectively.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant strains in E.coli,K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii was 1.7％,18.5％,16.4％,and 40.3％,respectively.Lower than 10％of the E.faecalis isolates were resistant to ampicillin,nitrofurantoin,linezolid,vancomycin,teicoplanin and fosfomycin.More than 90％of the E.faecium isolates were ressitant to ampicillin,levofloxacin and erythromycin.The percentage of strains resistant to vancomycin,linezolid or teicoplanin was＜2％.The E.coli,K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii strains isolated from ICU inpatients showed significantly higher resistance rates than the corresponding strains isolated from outpatients and non-ICU inpatients.Conclusions E.coli,Enterococcus and K.pneumoniae are the most common pathogens in urinary tract infection.The bacterial species and antimicrobial resistance of urinary isolates vary with different populations.More attention should be paid to antimicrobial resistance surveillance and reduce the irrational use of antimicrobial agents.

Objective To understand the distribution and changing resistance profiles of clinical isolates of Enterococcus in hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was conducted for the clinical isolates of Enterococcus according to the unified protocol of CHINET program by automated systems,Kirby-Bauer method,or E-test strip.The results were interpreted according to the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints in 2021.WHONET 5.6 software was used for statistical analysis.Results A total of 124 565 strains of Enterococcus were isolated during the 7-year period,mainly including Enterococcus faecalis(50.7％)and Enterococcus faecalis(41.5％).The strains were mainly isolated from urinary tract specimens(46.9％±2.6％),and primarily from the patients in the department of internal medicine,surgery and ICU.E.faecium and E.faecalis strains showed low level resistance rate to vancomycin,teicoplanin and linezolid(≤3.6％).The prevalence of vancomycin-resistant E.faecalis and E.faecium was 0.1％and 1.3％,respectively.The prevalence of linezolid-resistant E.faecalis increased from 0.7％in 2015 to 3.4％in 2021,while the prevalence of linezolid-resistant E.faecium was 0.3％.Conclusions The clinical isolates of Enterococcus were still highly susceptible to vancomycin,teicoplanin,and linezolid,evidenced by a low resistance rate.However,the prevalence of linezolid-resistant E.faecalis was increasing during the 7-year period.It is necessary to strengthen antimicrobial resistance surveillance to effectively identify the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and curb the spread of resistant pathogens.

Objective To examine the changing antimicrobial resistance profile of Enterobacter spp.isolates in 53 hospitals across China from 2015 t0 2021.Methods The clinical isolates of Enterobacter spp.were collected from 53 hospitals across China during 2015-2021 and tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using Kirby-Bauer method or automated testing systems according to the CHINET unified protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints issued by the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)in 2021(M100 31st edition)and analyzed with WHONET 5.6 software.Results A total of 37 966 Enterobacter strains were isolated from 2015 to 2021.The proportion of Enterobacter isolates among all clinical isolates showed a fluctuating trend over the 7-year period,overall 2.5％in all clinical isolates amd 5.7％in Enterobacterale strains.The most frequently isolated Enterobacter species was Enterobacter cloacae,accounting for 93.7％(35 571/37 966).The strains were mainly isolated from respiratory specimens(44.4±4.6)％,followed by secretions/pus(16.4±2.3)％and urine(16.0±0.9)％.The strains from respiratory samples decreased slightly,while those from sterile body fluids increased over the 7-year period.The Enterobacter strains were mainly isolated from inpatients(92.9％),and only(7.1±0.8)％of the strains were isolated from outpatients and emergency patients.The patients in surgical wards contributed the highest number of isolates(24.4±2.9)％compared to the inpatients in any other departement.Overall,≤ 7.9％of the E.cloacae strains were resistant to amikacin,tigecycline,polymyxin B,imipenem or meropenem,while ≤5.6％of the Enterobacter asburiae strains were resistant to these antimicrobial agents.E.asburiae showed higher resistance rate to polymyxin B than E.cloacae(19.7％vs 3.9％).Overall,≤8.1％of the Enterobacter gergoviae strains were resistant to tigecycline,amikacin,meropenem,or imipenem,while 10.5％of these strains were resistant to polycolistin B.The overall prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter was 10.0％over the 7-year period,but showing an upward trend.The resistance profiles of Enterobacter isolates varied with the department from which they were isolated and whether the patient is an adult or a child.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant E.cloacae was the highest in the E.cloacae isolates from ICU patients.Conclusions The results of the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program indicate that the proportion of Enterobacter strains in all clinical isolates fluctuates slightly over the 7-year period from 2015 to 2021.The Enterobacter strains showed increasing resistance to multiple antimicrobial drugs,especially carbapenems over the 7-year period.
