[Objective]To investigate the association between screen content and the frequency of screen exposure at the age of one and a half years and hyperactive behavior in preschool,and to explore how the association is affected by the interaction between outdoor activities and screen behaviors,which could provide theoretical basis and feasible solutions for the prevention and intervention of behavioral problems in childhoood.[Methods]The survey was conducted from June 2022 to June 2023 in Huicheng District,Huizhou (China) stratified by whole cluster sampling methods. Parents and teachers of 5648 children in 61 kindergartens were sampled for questionnaire surveys. The Conners Teacher Rating Scale (TRS) was used to investigate hyperactive behavior. A self-administered questionnaire was used to investigate basic demographic information of children,screen content,frequency of screen exposure and outdoor activities at the age of one and a half years. Multivariate logistic regression was used to explore the association between video screen behavior and hyperactive behavior and its interaction with outdoor activities by controlling for covariates such as children's age,gender,and parental education.[Results]Result showed the overall prevalence of 3.2％ for hyperactive behavior,2.1％ for conduct problems,2.1％ for hyperactivity problems,1.3％ for inattention-passivity problems,and 0.9％ for hyperactivity index. After adjusting for confounding factors,multiple logistic regression analysis showed that screen exposure of "two to four times a week" at one and a half years old was associated with an increased detection rate of hyperactive behaviors in preschool children,with an estimated ORs (95％ CI) of 1.682 (1.141,2.480). Daily screen exposure was associated with increased detection rates of hyperactive behavior,conduct problems,hyperactivity issues,inattention-passivity problems,and hyperactivity index in pre-school age. The estimated ORs (95％ CI) were 2.136 (1.218,3.746),2.321 (1.185,4.546),2.300 (1.208,4.380),2.776 (1.267,6.085) and 3.640 (1.525,8.687),respectively. But the above associations were not found in children who were engaged in daily outdoor activities at the age of one and a half years (P value for interaction<0.001). No association was found between screen content and hyperactive behavior (P>0.05).[Conclusions]Frequency of screen exposure in early childhood is significantly associated with hyperactive behavior problems in preschool,and outdoor activities could weaken the correlation between high-frequency screen exposure and hyperactive behavior,suggesting that parents and schools should prioritize scientifically guiding children's video viewing behavior and outdoor activities,ensuring a well-arranged daily life,to lay a good foundation for the healthy development of children's behavior.

By conducting retrospective analysis, this study aim to investigate the resistance mechanism of quinolones in non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS). A total of 105 strains of NTS isolated from clinical specimens from the Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Southern Medical University from May 2020 to February 2021 were used as research objects. VITEK2 Compact automatic identification drug sensitivity analysis system and serological test were used to identify the strains. The sensitivity of the strains to ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin and nalidixic acid was detected by AGAR dilution method. The whole genome of 105 strains of NTS was sequenced. Abricate and other softwares were used to analyze drug-resistant genes, including plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance gene (PMQR) and Quinolone resistance determination region (QRDR). Serotypes and ST types were analyzed using SISTR and MLST, and phylogenetic trees were constructed. The results showed that the NTS isolated in this region were mainly ST34 Salmonella typhimurium (53.3%). The drug sensitivity results showed that the drug resistance rates of NTS to ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin and nalidixic acid were 30.4%, 1.9% and 22.0%, respectively, and the intermediate rates of ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin were 27.6% and 54.2%.A total of 46 (74.2%) of the 62 quinolone non-susceptible strains carried the PMQR gene, mainly qnrS1 (80.4%), followed by aac(6′)-Ib-cr(15.2%); there were 14 NTS and 8 NTS had gyrA and parC gene mutations, respectively. The gyrA was mutations at the amino acid position 87, Asp87Tyr, Asp87Asn, Asp87Gly, and Thr57Ser mutations were detected in parC. In conclusion, this study found that NTS had relatively high resistance to quinolones, carrying qnrS1 gene mainly resulted in decreased sensitivity of NTS to ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin, and gyrA:87 mutation mainly resulted in NTS resistance to Nalidixic acid; Salmonella typhimurium in clinical isolates showed clonal transmission and required further epidemiological surveillance.

Objective:To analyze the association of CD19+CD24hiCD27+regulatory B cells(Bregs)with ankylosing spondylitis(AS).Methods:Eighty patients with AS in Ganzhou People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were enrolled as observa-tion group,meantime,another 60 healthy individuals were set as control group.Observation group was further divided into subgroups according to clinical stages and disease activity,advanced stage,ankylosis stage,active stage and non-active stage.Percentage of CD19+CD24hiCD27+Bregs in CD19+cells in peripheral blood of observation group and control group,and observation group patients with different stages were detected and compared,thereafter,relationship between percentage of CD19+CD24hiCD27+Bregs and clini-cal characteristics of AS patients were discussed,such as course of disease,duration of morning stiffness,the Bath Ankylosing Spon-dylitis Disease Activity Index(BASDAI),IL-10,erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),C-reactive protein(CRP)and X-ray classifi-cation of sacroiliitis.Results:Percentage of CD19+CD24hiCD27+Bregs in peripheral blood in observation group was higher than that in control group.Percentage of CD19+CD24hiCD27+Bregs in CD19+cells in AS patients at ankylosis stage was higher than that in patients at advanced stage,and percentage of CD19+CD24hiCD27+Bregs in peripheral blood of patients with bony ankylosis stage was higher than that in patients with fibrous ankylosis stage.Percentage of CD19+CD24hiCD27+Breg in CD19+B cells in active AS patients was sig-nificantly higher than that of patients with stable AS(P<0.05).Serum IL-10 level in observation group was lower than that in control group,while ESR and CRP levels were higher than those in control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05).Percentage of CD19+CD24hiCD27+Breg in CD19+B cells in peripheral blood of AS patients was positively correlated with BASDAI score and serum IL-10 level,while negatively correlated with ESR and CRP levels,and had no correlation with morning stiffness time and X-ray classi-fication of sacroiliitis.Conclusion:Percentage of CD19+CD24hiCD27+Bregs in peripheral blood is reduced in AS patients,moreover,percentage is closely related to disease stage,activity and laboratory indicators IL-10,ESR and CRP,which may be involved in the occurrence and development of AS.

Objective:To provide a promising and optimal laboratory susceptibility-testing method for the clinical usage of antibiotic (polymyxin), four susceptibility-testing methods were performed and the broth microdilution (BMD) was chosen as the gold standard.Methods:A total number of eighty-eight nonduplicate clinical Enterobacteriaceae specimes were collected from January to December of 2019 in the First Affiliated Hospital, Fujian Medical University. Among the clinical specimens, of which six strains were positive for mcr-1. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of polymyxin of the clinical specimens were examined by the following methods: (1) broth microdilution, (2) colistin broth disk elution, (3) Vitek-2?, (4)BD PhoenixTM,(5)commercial broth microdilution. With BMD as reference, essential agreement (EA), categorical agreement(CA), very major error(VME) and major error (ME) of polymyxins for different methods were analyzed. The Kappa-consistency testing, paired Chi-square testing and the Spearman-rank correlation testing were used to analyze the consistency between the four antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods and the gold standard.Results:Taking broth microdilution as reference, the EA of colistin broth disk elution, Vitek-2?, BD PhoenixTM, commercial broth microdilution were 94.32% (83/88), 92.05% (81/88), 90.90% (80/88), and 96.59%(85/88), respectively. The CA of all the four methods were 100% (88/88). No VME and ME were recorded for four methods. Moreover, the consistency between four susceptibility testing methods and the gold standard is acceptable (Kappa values=1, P<0.001, McNemar test P=1 and r>0.5, P<0.05). Conclusions:In the present work, four susceptibility testing methods all met the standards recommended jointly by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute and European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing, of which the performance of the commercial broth microdilution and CBDE fared relatively well. Thus, these four methods could be routinely used in clinical microbiology laboratory of our hospital for colistin and polymyxin B susceptibility testing.

In recent years,with the rapid development of the Next Generation Sequencing,the tumor heterogeneity has attracted widespread attention.It has been clear that heterogeneity in the same patient includes inter-tumor heterogeneity and intra-tumor heterogeneity.The former exists between different tumor lesions,such as primary tumor and metastatic tumor,and the latter occurs in different cancer cells.Tumor heterogeneity represents the ongoing challenge in the field of cancer treatment and brings great difficulty for the precision medicine.Therefore,it is possible to achieve accurate diagnosis and therapy for tumor patients by detecting the subclone of tumors and adjusting the treatment plan in time.

Objective To analyze the antibiotic resistance of pathogenic bacteria recovered from bronchial secretions by bronchofiberscope in bronchiectasis patients complicated with infection for improving antibacterial therapy. Methods A total of 97 bronchiectasis patients complicated with infection treated in Liyuan Hospital during the period from June 2013 to December 2015 were included in this analysis. The pathogens were recovered from bronchial secretions by bronchofiberscope and subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility testing by Kirby-Bauer disc method. The data were analyzed with WHONET 5.5 software. Results Pathogenic organisms were isolated from 53 (54.6%) of the 97 patients, including 49 (92.4%) strains of gram negative bacilli, mainly Pseudomonas aeruginosa, followed by Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, 3 (5.7%) strains of?gram?positive?cocci,?specifically?2?strains?of?S. aureus and 1 strain of S. pneumoniae, and 1 (1.9%) strain of Candida albicans. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing showed that most P. aeruginosa isolates (>71.8%) were susceptible to tobramycin, amikacin,cefepime, and aztreonam, but 100% resistant to levofloxacin. More A. baumannii isolates were susceptible to tobramycin and amikacin (both 85.7%), followed by imipenem (>42.9%). More than half (>50%) of the K. pneumoniae isolates were resistant to cefotaxime, gentamycin, ciprofloxacin, and levofloxacin.Conclusions Gram negative bacilli are dominant in the pathogenic organisms recovered from bronchial secretions in bronchiectasis patients complicated with infection. Most of the pathogens are relatively susceptible to tobramycin and amikacin, but resistant to ciprofloxacin?and?levofloxacin.

Immune-checkpoint blockers(ICBs)have been well received in a variety of tumors,and the quality of patient life has improved significantly.However,the reasons why not all patients treated with ICBs benefit from lesion control,symptom improvement,and survival time.Many patients are resistant to the first time when they have been using ICBs for a period of time.This is a clinical challenge.This review lists possible causes of primary drug resistance and acquired resistance to ICBs.The primary resistance is associated with several mechanisms,including tumor microenvironment,cancer cells themselves and other related factors.The acquired resistance includes nonclassical immunoprecipitation molecules secondary overexpression,abnormalities of antigen presenting signal pathway and dysfunction of T cell activation killer.Finally,we have described a variety of possible new combination of treatment,including combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy,and combined targeted therapy with other measures.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To observe the effects of long-term cigarette smoke exposure on pulmonary vascular remode-ling and the protein expression of transforming growth factor-β1 ( TGF-β1 ) in the rats, and to explore the mechanism. METHODS:SD rats (n=36) were randomly divided into control group, 2-week smoke exposure (S-2W) group and 12-week smoke exposure (S-12W) groups.HE staining andα-smooth muscle actin staining were performed to observe the pul-monary vascular remodeling.The protein expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen ( PCNA) and TGF-β1 in the pulmo-nary arteries was determined by the method of immunohistochemistry.The mRNA expression of TGF-β1 in the pulmonary arteries was evaluated by RT-qPCR.RESULTS:Compared with control group, ratio of pulmonary vessel wall thickness to vessel diameter ( WT%) and percentage of muscularized vessels were significantly increased in S-2W group and S-12W group ( P<0.01) .Significant increases in the protein expression of PCNA and TGF-β1 in smoke exposure groups were ob-served compared with control group.There was significant difference between 2 model groups (P<0.01).Compared with control group, the mRNA expression of TGF-β1 in pulmonary artery walls obviously increased in smoke exposure groups. There was significantly difference between S-2W and S-12W groups (P<0.05).The mRNA expression of TGF-β1 was positively correlated with pulmonary vascular muscularization, WT% and the protein expression of PCNA.CONCLU-SION:Long-term cigarette smoke exposure results in pulmonary artery remodeling in rats.The possible mechanism is that cigarette smoking exposure induces the over-expression of TGF-β1 at mRNA level in pulmonary vessels and promotes the proliferation of pulmonary vascular smooth muscle cells in rats.
