Objective:To study influence of exercise rehabilitation based on psycho-cardiology medical model on pa-tients with coronary heart disease(CHD)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods:A total of 164 CHD patients undergoing PCI in our hospital were randomly and equally divided into routine nursing group and exer-cise rehabilitation group(received exercise rehabilitation based on psycho-cardiology medical model based on rou-tine nursing group).Both groups were intervened for six months.General clinical data,score of somatic symptoms scale(SSS),cardiac function indexes:LVEF and LVEDV,6min walking distance(6MWD)and score of 36-item short-form heath survey(SF-36)were compared between two groups.Results:During follow-up,there were three cases lost in routine nursing group,and two cases lost and four cases stopped follow-up in exercise rehabilita-tion group.Compared with routine nursing group,six months after intervention,there were significant reductions in SSS score[(33.97±5.76)scores vs.(25.76±4.79)scores]and LVEDV[(125.33±16.14)ml vs.(119.53± 16.82)ml],and significant rise in LVEF[(56.28±4.46)％vs.(59.28±4.90)％],6MWD[(410.42±20.08)m vs.(439.69±20.66)m],scores of physical functioning[(19.20±4.22)scores vs.(23.76±3.98)scores],bodily pain[(7.42±1.99)scores vs.(8.84±1.94)scores],general health[(16.42±4.73)scores vs.(19.09±4.37)scores],vitality[16.0(7.0)scores vs.19.0(6.8)scores],role-emotional[(4.86±1.10)scores vs.(5.18± 0.86)scores],mental health[20.0(5.0)scores vs.24.0(8.8)scores]of SF-36 in exercise rehabilitation group(P＜0.05 or＜0.01).Conclusion:Exercise rehabilitation based on psycho-cardiology medical model can signifi-cantly improve cardiac function and psychological status,and improve quality of life in patients with coronary heart disease after PCI.

Objective　To collect data of fungi isolated from a fungus monitoring network in Hainan Province from 2013 to 2022, and analyze the drug resistance characteristics of Candida and the results of serological tests, with an aim to provide a basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods　In accordance with the National Fungal Drug Resistance Monitoring Network technical scheme, the qualifying fungal data were extracted from the microbial identification system database using SQL language, and the data information was then analyzed, with statistical processing done using SPSS 26.0 software. Results　Among 5 503 fungal isolates from clinical specimens between 2013 and 2022, cervical orifice secretions accounted for 30.37%(1 671 strains), mid-stream urine for 23.55%(1 296 strains), lower respiratory tract specimens for 25.24% (1 389 strains)[(sputum for 20.37%(1 121 strains) and alveolar lavage fluid for 4.87%(268 strains)], wound pus for 9.59%(528 strains), ascites for 5.60%(308 strains), blood for 3.67%(202 strains), cerebrospinal fluid for 0.38%(21 strains), and joint fluid for 0.04%(2 strains), with the highest number of strains isolated in 2022 and the lowest in 2013, the 2022 figure is about 2.6 times that of 2013. Among yeast-like fungi, Candida albicans had the highest proportion with 3 312 strains accounting for 60.2%; The highest resistance rate of Candida albicans was to fluconazole at 16.7%, with 2.5% being non-wild type (NWT) for amphotericin B; Candida tropicalis had the highest rate of resistance to fluconazole at 36.0%, with NWT at 41.1% for fluconazole and 3.1% for amphotericin B; Candida glabrata had a resistance rate to fluconazole of 2.8%, dose-dependent susceptibility (SDD) of 97.2%, NWT of 15.5% for fluconazole, and NWT of 8.6% for itraconazole; Candida parapsilosis had the highest resistance rate to fluconazole at 15.7% and and NWT of 8.3% for amphotericin B; Candida krusei had a 0.0% resistance rate to caspofungin; and Candida dubliniensis was 100.0% NWT to fluconazole. Of 70 cases of blood culture-positive specimens, 64 cases were detected by G test and 25 cases by Mn test, and the positive blood cultures were statistically significant when compared with the G test and Mn test, respectively (P<0.01). Conclusions　 Fungal serological test can make up for the deficiency of blood culture and distinguish fungal invasion and colonization, thus providing a basis for the effective control of fungal infection in clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the value of implantable cardiac monitor (ICM) in the diagnosis and treatment of patients over 60 years old with unexplained syncope.Methods:This was a multi-center, prospective cohort study. Between June 2018 and April 2021, patients over the age of 60 with unexplained syncope at Beijing Hospital, Fuwai Hospital, Beijing Anzhen Hospital and Puren Hospital were enrolled. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on their decision to receive ICM implantation (implantation group and conventional follow-up group). The endpoint was the recurrence of syncope and cardiogenic syncope as determined by positive cardiac arrhythmia events recorded at the ICM or diagnosed during routine follow-up. Kaplan‐Meier survival analysis was used to compare the differences of cumulative diagnostic rate between the 2 groups. A multivariate Cox regression analysis was performed to determine independent predictors of diagnosis of cardiogenic syncope in patients with unexplained syncope.Results:A total of 198 patients with unexplained syncope, aged (72.9±8.25) years, were followed for 558.0 (296.0,877.0) d, including 98 males (49.5%). There were 100 (50.5%) patients in the implantation group and 98 (49.5%) in the conventional follow-up group. Compared with conventional follow-up group, patients in the implantation group were older, more likely to have comorbidities, had a higher proportion of first degree atrioventricular block indicated by baseline electrocardiogram, and had a lower body mass index (all P<0.05). During the follow-up period, positive cardiac arrhythmia events were recorded in 58 (58.0%) patients in the ICM group. The diagnosis rate (42.0% (42/100) vs. 4.1% (4/98), P<0.001) and the intervention rate (37.0% (37/100) vs. 2.0% (2/98), P<0.001) of cardiogenic syncope in the implantation group were higher than those in the conventional follow-up group (all P<0.001). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the cumulative diagnostic rate of cardiogenic syncope was significantly higher in the implantation group than in the traditional follow-up group ( HR=11.66, 95% CI 6.49-20.98, log-rank P<0.001). Multivariate analysis indicated that ICM implantation, previous atrial fibrillation, diabetes mellitus or first degree atrioventricular block in baseline electrocardiogram were independent predictors for cardiogenic syncope (all P<0.05). Conclusions:ICM implantation improves the diagnosis and intervention rates in patients with unexplained syncope, and increases diagnostic efficiency in patients with unexplained syncope.

The study focused on individuals with influenza-like symptoms (fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, and other respiratory symptoms) in three kindergartens in Tongzhou District, Beijing City, in April 2023. Nasopharyngeal swab specimens were collected, and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect common respiratory pathogens in the collected specimens. Positive specimens were subjected to sequencing analysis of the highly variable region of human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) G protein, homology analysis and phylogenetic tree analysis. A total of 25 fever cases were collected from 3 kindergartens, aged 3-8 years old, with an age M ( Q1, Q3) of 4 (3.5, 5) years old. Ten confirmed cases of HRSV positive were screened and detected using the fluorescent quantitative PCR method, with a total detection rate of 40% (10/25). Typing identification and sequencing analysis confirmed that the main epidemic type was HRSV subtype B, which was highly homologous and closely related to previous epidemic strains in the region. Through pathogen investigation and analysis, it was preliminarily determined that this epidemic was dominated by HRSV subtype B.

Objective:To investigate the pathogen spectrum and the epidemiological characteristics of hospitalized severe acute respiratory tract infection (SARI) cases in a sentinel hospital in Tongzhou District of Beijing from 2019 to 2022, and provide reference for scientific prevention and control of SARI.Methods:This study enrolled SARI patients in the Beijing Luhe Hospital from January 2019 to December 2022. Nasopharyngeal swabs or respiratory secretions of the patients were collected and analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR to detect the pathogens and their types. The epidemiological and clinical characteristics of the cases were analyzed.Results:In this study, 1 124 SARI cases were enrolled, of which 379 were positive for respiratory pathogens with a detection rate of 33.72%. Most of the SARI cases were positive for bacteria pathogens, and the detection rates of Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia were high. Influenza A virus, parainfluenza virus, and respiratory syncytial virus were the main viral pathogens detected in the cases. There were significant differences in the number of cases and the detection rate of respiratory pathogens among different age groups (χ 2=555, P=0.000 1). The predominant pathogens in different years were different. Mycoplasma pneumoniae [27.27% (51/187)] and influenza A virus [17.65% (33/187), ] were the predominant pathogens in 2019; parainfluenza virus [16.67% (10/60)], Mycoplasma pneumoniae [11.67% (7/60)], and Haemophilus influenzae [11.67% (7/60)] were the predominant pathogens in 2020; Stenotrophomonas maltophilia [24.39% (20/82)] and respiratory syncytial virus [19.51% (16/82)] were the predominant pathogens in 2021; Stenotrophomonas maltophilia [20% (10/50)] and parainfluenza virus [12% (6/50)] were the predominant pathogens in 2022. Conclusions:Most of the SARI cases in Tongzhou district of Beijing from 2019 to 2022 are caused by bacteria. More attention should be paid to the prevalence of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and Mycoplasma pneumoniae, as well as the prevalence of respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza virus, and influenza A virus. The predominant pathogens change every year from 2019 to 2022. Therefore, the prevention and control strategies should be made accordingly. This study provides basis data for the national respiratory multipathogen surveillance program.

Cancer cell membrane (CCM) derived nanotechnology functionalizes nanoparticles (NPs) to recognize homologous cells, exhibiting translational potential in accurate tumor therapy. However, these nanoplatforms are majorly generated from fixed cell lines and are typically evaluated in cell line-derived subcutaneous-xenografts (CDX), ignoring the tumor heterogeneity and differentiation from inter- and intra- individuals and microenvironments between heterotopic- and orthotopic-tumors, limiting the therapeutic efficiency of such nanoplatforms. Herein, various biomimetic nanoplatforms (CCM-modified gold@Carbon, i.e., Au@C-CCM) were fabricated by coating CCMs of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines and patient-derived cells on the surface of Au@C NP. The generated Au@C-CCMs were evaluated on corresponding CDX, tongue orthotopic xenograft (TOX), immune-competent primary and distant tumor models, and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. The Au@C-CCM generates a photothermal conversion efficiency up to 44.2% for primary HNSCC therapy and induced immunotherapy to inhibit metastasis via photothermal therapy-induced immunogenic cell death. The homologous CCM endowed the nanoplatforms with optimal targeting properties for the highest therapeutic efficiency, far above those with mismatched CCMs, resulting in distinct tumor ablation and tumor growth inhibition in all four models. This work reinforces the feasibility of biomimetic NPs combining modular designed CMs and functional cores for customized treatment of HNSCC, can be further extended to other malignant tumors therapy.

Cardiac-resident macrophages (CRMs) play important roles in homeostasis, cardiac function, and remodeling. Although CRMs play critical roles in cardiac regeneration of neonatal mice, their roles are yet to be fully elucidated. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the dynamic changes of CRMs during cardiac ontogeny and analyze the phenotypic and functional properties of CRMs in the promotion of cardiac regeneration. During mouse cardiac ontogeny, four CRM subsets exist successively: CX₃CR1⁺CCR2^-Ly6C^-MHCII^- (MP1), CX₃CR1^lowCCR2^lowLy6C^-MHCII^- (MP2), CX₃CR1^-CCR2⁺Ly6C⁺MHCII^- (MP3), and CX₃CR1⁺CCR2^-Ly6C^-MHCII⁺ (MP4). MP1 cluster has different derivations (yolk sac, fetal liver, and bone marrow) and multiple functions population. Embryonic and neonatal-derived-MP1 directly promoted cardiomyocyte proliferation through Jagged-1-Notch1 axis and significantly ameliorated cardiac injury following myocardial infarction. MP2/3 subsets could survive throughout adulthood. MP4, the main population in adult mouse hearts, contributed to inflammation. During ontogeny, MP1 can convert into MP4 triggered by changes in the cellular redox state. These findings delineate the evolutionary dynamics of CRMs under physiological conditions and found direct evidence that embryonic and neonatal-derived CRMs regulate cardiomyocyte proliferation. Our findings also shed light on cardiac repair following injury.
