Objective To investigate the environmental contamination related to first patient with carbapenem-re-sistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)infection and the infection status of relevant patients in a newly established intensive care unit(ICU)of a hospital in Tibetan area,and analyze the transmission risk.Methods From the ad-mission in ICU of a patients who was first detected CRAB on November 15,2021 to the 60th day of hospitalization,all patients who stayed in ICU for＞48 hours were performed active screening on CRAB.On the 30th day and 60th day of the admission to the ICU of the first CRAB-infected patient,environment specimens were taken respectively 2 hours after high-frequency diagnostic and therapeutic activities but before disinfection,and after disinfection but before medical activities.CRAB was cultured with chromogenic culture medium.Results Among the 13 patients who were actively screened,1 case was CRAB positive,he was transferred from the ICU of a tertiary hospital to the ICU of this hospital on November 19th.On the 40th day of admission to the ICU,he had fever,increased frequency for sputum suction,and CRAB was detected.The drug sensitivity spectrum was similar to that of the first case,and he also stayed in the adjacent bed of the first case.64 environmental specimens were taken,and 9 were positive for CRAB,with a positive rate of 14.06％,8 sampling points such as the washbasin,door handle and bed rail were positive for CRAB after high-frequency diagnostic and therapeutic activities.After routine disinfection,CRAB was detected from the sink of the washbasin.Conclusion For the prevention and control of CRAB in the basic-level ICU in ethnic areas,it is feasible to conduct risk assessment on admitted patients and adopt bundled prevention and con-trol measures for high-risk patients upon admission.Attention should be paid to the contaminated areas(such as washbasin,door handle,and bed rail)as well as the effectiveness of disinfection of sink of washbasin.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and value of a multi-parametric MRI radiomics-based nomogram model for pretreatment predicting the lymphovascular space invasion(LVSI)of endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma(EEA).Methods Preoperative MRI and baseline clinical characteristics of 205 EEA patients were prospectively collected from Oct 2020 to Jan 2022 in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University,and randomly divided into training set(n=123)and validation set(n=82)in a 6∶4 ratio.The whole-tumor region of interest was manually drawn on T2-weighted imaging,diffusion-weighted imaging(apparent diffusion coefficient),and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI,respectively,for radiomics features extraction.In the training set,univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to select independent clinical predictors of LVSI(+)and construct the clinical model.The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)regression and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to select optimal radiomics features to form a radiomics signature.A combined nomogram model was established by integrating clinical independent predictors and the radiomics signature,and validated in the validation set.The predicting performance and clinical net benefit were evaluated by using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)and clinical decision curve analysis,respectively.Results Of the 205 EEA cases,144 cases were LVSI(-)and 61 cases were LVSI(+).Menopausal status,CA125,and CA199 were independent clinical predictors for the LVSI(+),and contributing to a clinical model with AUCs of 0.714(training)and 0.731(validation).From 8 240 extracted radiomics features,five were selected to construct a MRI radiomics signature after de-redundancy and LASSO dimensionality reduction,yielding AUCs of 0.860(training)and 0.759(validation).The combined nomogram model showed AUCs of 0.887(training)and 0.807(validation),outperforming others and achieving maximum clinical benefit in a large range of threshold probability in both training and validation sets.Conclusion The multi-parametric MRI-based nomogram model has the potential for pretreatment predicting the LVSI status of EEA,providing valuable information for clinical management decision-making and improving patient's clinical benefits.

Objective To investigated vascular characteristics and clinical follow-up results of gestational trophoblastic neoplasia(GTN)with uterine arteriovenous malformation(UAVM)using contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography(CE-MRA).Methods Patients clinically suspected of GTN at Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University from Dec 2015 to Dec 2020 were selected.Imaging characteristics of conventional magnetic resonance imaging and CE-MRA before treatment.The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics(FIGO)2000 clinical staging and prognosis scoring system was used to evaluate the severity of the condition and related risk factors,the treatment methods(chemotherapy,surgical treatment,and arterial embolization)and prognosis determined during follow-up were recorded.Results A total of 44 cases were included,including 5 cases of placental site trophoblastic tumor(PSTT)and 39 cases of the other GTN.There were 3 cases of PSTT combined with UAVM and 23 cases of the other GTN combined with UAVM.Thirty-nine cases of the other GTN were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of UAVM.Data regarding the β-human chorionic gonadotropin(β-hCG)value(＜10 000 mIU/mL and≥10 000 mIU/mL)were evaluated using Chi-square test,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.001).The average FIGO scores of the two groups were 4.19±3.69 and 6.70±3.39,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.035).Conclusion When β-hCG value≥10 000 mIU/mL,the probability of UAVM occurrence increases.The higher the prognosis score is,the more possibility of formation of UAVM.The use of CE-MRA technology helps to better diagnose UAVM.

Objective To analyze the correlation of eyeball diameters of normal fetuses with fetal gender and gestational age(GA)in the second and third trimesters,as well as the MRI morphological features of fetal eyeball,for providing reference for prenatal MRI diagnosis.Methods MRI data of fetuses who underwent prenatal MRI in Department of Radiology,Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University from Mar 2014 to Jun 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.All fetuses had no abnormal findings in MRI and the subsequent ultrasound follow-up before birth.The left and right maximum transverse diameter of the eyeball(TDE),the upper-lower diameter of the eyeball(ULDE),and the anterior-posterior diameter of the eyeball(APDE)were measured in the transverse and sagittal T2-HASTE images(the maximum distance between the outer edges of the eye-rings),respectively.The correlation between the diameters and fetal gender was analyzed,as well as between the diameters and GA.Regression analyses were performed on the diameters and fetal age.MRI morphological features of fetal eyeballs in different GA in the second and third trimesters were observed,and the changing trends in TDE/APDE,TDE/ULDE and APDE/ULDE with the increasing GA were quantitatively analyzed.Results There were no significant differences between the left and right TDE,APDE and ULDE in normal fetuses in the second and third trimesters(t=0.198,-0.963,0.774,respectively),and none of them was related to fetal gender(r=-0.047,-0.040,-0.030,-0.022,-0.026 and-0.026,respectively).The left and right TDE,APDE and ULDE showed a highly linear increase with GA in the second and third trimesters(r=0.964,0.962,0.966,0.966,0.972,0.972,0.972,respectively,all P<0.001).The linear regression equations were as follows:left TDE(cm)=0.044×GA(wk)+0.368(R2=0.930),right TDE(cm)=0.045×GA(wk)+0.359(R2=0.926),left APDE(cm)=0.049×GA(wk)+0.078(R2=0.934),right APDE(cm)=0.049×GA(wk)+0.0073(R2=0.933),left ULDE(cm)=0.044×GA(wk)+0.242(R2=0.946),right ULDE(cm)=0.045×GA(wk)+0.237(R2=0.945).The fetal eyeballs transitioned from a conoidal shape in about the 20th week towards a more spherical geometry in about the 38th week.The TDE/APDE and TDE/ULDE decreased while APDE/ULDE increased with increasing GA.All of them gradually approached 1.0 in the third trimester,but the TDE was always the largest throughout the second and third trimesters.Conclusion The normal fetal eyeball development in the second and third trimesters demonstrates a symmetrical pattern and is gender-neutral.The TDE,APDE and ULDE linearly increased with GA and morphologically transitioned from a conoidal shape towards a more spherical geometry.

Aim To evaluate the effect of ricolinostat on X-ray induced myocardial fibrosis and damage to primary cilia in myocardial fibroblasts.Methods Wistar rats were subjected to a single dose of 8 Gy whole-body irradiation,followed by intraperitoneal in-jection of ricolinostat.Serum troponinT(TnT)and brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)levels were measured using ELISA.The degree of myocardial tissue fibrosis was measured using HE and Masson staining.Type Ⅰcollagen and primary cilia were detected using immuno-fluorescence.The gene and protein levels of histone deacetylase 6(HDAC6)in myocardial tissue and cells were detected using PCR and Western blot.Results Compared with the control group,X-ray radiation in-creased type Ⅰ collagen content and promoted the pro-liferation of myocardial fibroblasts in rat myocardial tis-sue.X-ray radiation slightly up-regulated the expres-sion of HDAC6 in myocardial fibroblasts(P＞0.05),and significantly increased the formation of primary cil-ia in myocardial tissue and myocardial fibroblasts.Af-ter treatment with ricolinostat,the expression of HDAC6 and primary cilia formation decreased in myo-cardial tissue and myocardial fibroblasts(P＜0.05),and acetylation in the cytoplasm significantly in-creased.The arrangement of collagen fibers in myocar-dial tissue was slightly neat,collagen volume fraction was reduced,and the levels of TnT(P＜0.01)and BNP decreased.Conclusions Ricolinostat can miti-gate X-ray induced myocardial fibrosis via the disas-sembly of primary cilia,with potential value for trea-ting radiation-induced myocardial fibrosis.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

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.
