Chinese Journal of Interventional Cardiology 2024;32(1):20-23
Reviewing important clinical trials in the field of arrhythmia in 2023,involving atrial fibrillation,pacing,and other aspects.Both the CIRDA-DOSE study and the EARLY-AF study affirmed the efficacy of cryoballoon ablation in treating atrial fibrillation,alter its progression to persistent atrial fibrillation.The MANIFEST-PF study examined the success rate and safety of pulse field ablation in atrial fibrillation,and the ADVENT study also confirmed its safety and effectiveness not inferior to conventional thermal ablation.In the LBBAP study,LBBAP reduced the occurrence of sustained VT/VF and new-onset atrial fibrillation compared to BVP.For patients with a high right ventricular pacing burden and reduced ejection fraction in pacemakers or ICDs,the BUDAPEST CRT upgrade study affirmed the benefits of upgrading to CRT-D.The DANPACE Ⅱ study showed that minimizing atrial pacing in patients with sinus node dysfunction does not reduce the incidence of atrial fibrillation.The IDE study demonstrated the safety of Aveir DR dual-chamber leadless pacemaker at 3 months post-operation,providing reliable atrial pacing and atrioventricular synchrony.The iSUSI study is a registry study of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators,finding similar inappropriate and appropriate shock rates in patients with and without heart failure.

As a member of G protein coupled-receptors superfamily, free fatty acid receptor 1 (FFAR1), is also known as GPR40, has been shown to regulate numerous pathophysiological processes in a variety of tissues and organs. The activated FFAR1 has a variety of biological functions. For instance, it can not only regulate metabolism of fatty acids and glucose, but also play an important role in immune inflammatory response, it may be a potential drug target for the treatment of various chronic inflammatory diseases. In this review, we focus on the recent researches of FFAR1's action in the regulation of pathophysiological processes, its molecular mechanism and new agonists development. At the same time, this review will take the discovery of series FFAR1 agonists as examples, and display the applied prospects of FFAR1.

Metabolic associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a liver disease with hepatocyte steatosis caused by metabolic disorders, which is closely related to obesity, diabetes, metabolic dysfunction, and other factors. Its pathological process changes from simple steatosis, liver inflammation to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and then leads to liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and liver cancer. At present, no specific therapeutics are available for treatment of MAFLD targeting its etiology. Celastrol is the main active component of the traditional Chinese medicine Celastrus orbiculatus Thunb. In recent years, it has been found that celastrol shows important medicinal value in regulating lipid metabolism, reducing fat and weight, and protecting liver, and then ameliorates MAFLD. This article reviews the related research progress of celastrol in the prevention and treatment of MAFLD, so as to provide a reference for the comprehensive development and utilization of celastrol.

Objective To investigate the Gram-negative bacteria resistance in nationwide's tertiary hospitals and understand the trend of antimicrobial resistance.Method All the clinical isolates were collected from 19 hospitals and the minimal inhibitory concentrations(MICs)were tested using agar/broth dilution method recommended.Results A total of 4 066 pathogenic isolates from 19 tertiary hospitals in 19 cities nationwide over the period from July 2021 to June 2022 were studied.Based on the MIC results,Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae showed extended spectrum β-lactamase(ESBLs)phenotype rates of 55.0%and 21.0%,respectively,ESBLs phenotype rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae keep going down.The ratios of carbapenems resistance Klebsiella pneumoniae increased by 5 percentage points compared with the previous monitoring.Carbapenems,moxalactam,sitafloxacin,β-lactam combination agents,fosfomycin trometamol,and amikacin displayed desirable antibacterial activity against Enterbacterales,susceptibal rates were above 75%.In addition,tigacycline,omacycline,colistin and fluoxefin maintained good antibacterial activity against their respective effective bacteria/species,and the bacterial sensitivity rates by more than 80%.Resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannnii to imipenem were 26.3%and 72.1%and multidrug-resistant(MDR)detection rates were 41.1%and 77.3%,extensively drug-resistant(XDR)were 12.0%and 71.8%,respectively.Comparison of drug resistance rates from different wards,ages and specimen sources indicated that the proportion of resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from intensive care unit(ICU)were significantly higher than non-ICU.Carbapenem resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from ICU were more than 35%.Resistance rates of Haemophilus influenzae isolated in children to β-lactam,macrolide,clindamycin and ESBLs detection rate in Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from children were more than those from adults and the old people,so bacterial resistance in children is an important problem in China.Conclusion ESBLs detection rate of Escherichia coli increased slightly after years of continuous decline.The proportion of carbapenem resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa was stable,but the resistance rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii to carbapenems was still increased,which should be paid more attention.
