ObjectiveTo analyze the incidence and trend of stroke in Beilun District, so as to provide evidence for identifying influencing factors and reducing stroke incidence. MethodsStroke cases from 2012 to 2023 were extracted from the Ningbo Chronic Disease Collaborative Management System. Population information of Beilun District during the same period was also collected. The annual incidence and trends of stroke were analyzed. ResultsFrom 2012 to 2023, the age-standardized incidence rate of stroke in Beilun District, Ningbo City was 317.68/100 000, showing an increasing trend with an average annual percentage change (AAPC) of 2.267% (P=0.034). Among all subdistricts in Beilun District, two showed a downward trend in incidence, while the rest showed an upward trend. The crude incidence rate of stroke was significantly higher in males than that in females (P<0.001). The age-standardized incidence rate in males was 406.08/100 000, showing an increasing trend (AAPC=3.956%, P<0.001). The incidence of stroke also showed an increasing trend in the following age groups: 30‒<45 years (AAPC=6.340%, P=0.004), 45‒<60 years (AAPC=4.997%, P<0.001), and 60‒<75 years (AAPC=3.282%, P=0.042). Across all years, males had higher crude incidence rates in both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke than females (P<0.05). The age-standardized incidence rate of ischemic stroke showed a rising trend in both males and the general population (male AAPC=4.905%, P<0.001; overall population AAPC=3.065%, P=0.001). ConclusionThe age-standardized incidence of stroke in Beilun District is on the rise, with higher crude incidence rate in males than that in females. The onset age of stroke is gradually declining. The age-standardized incidence rate of male ischemic stroke shows a clear upward trend.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals，of which 7 895（87.4%）were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140（12.6%）were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（ n=4 510，49.9%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（ n=2 340，25.9%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（ n=534，5.9%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（ n=405，4.5%）and Enterobacter cloacae（ n=327，3.6%）. The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%（2 095/4 452），21.0%（427/2 033）and 41.1%（58/141），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（58/4 510）and 13.1%（307/2 340）；62.1%（36/58）and 9.8%（30/307）of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 59.5%（241/405），while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 18.4%（98/534）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA（ χ2=20.489 and 20.252， P<0.001）. The prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA，CRAB，ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=11.953，81.183，10.404，5.915，12.415 and 6.459， P<0.01 or <0.05），while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions（per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan）than that in economically less-developed regions（per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=6.240， P=0.012）. Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different，and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

Objective To compare the effect of posterior cruciate ligament retaining(CR)and posterior cruciate substituting(PS)prosthesis in knee arthroplasty.Methods 64 patients with knee osteoarthritis were admitted to our department from June 2021 to June 2022 and whom met the selection criteria were randomly selected and divided into observation group and control group(n = 32).CR prosthesis was used in the observation group,and PS prosthesis was used in the control group.Operation time,postoperative drainage volume,difference of hemoglobin(HGB)before and after operation,postoperative hospital stay,postoperative range of motion at 7 d,14 d,45 d,3 months and 1 year were recorded.ROM,visual analog pain Scale(VAS),Hospital for special surgery(HSS)score,and maximum forward and backward displacement of knee joint and the regular radiographs were also recorded,too.Results The two groups were similar in terms of operation time,postoperative hospital stay,postoperative VAS score and maximum anterior and posterior displacement of knee joint,with P values greater than 0.05,which had no statistical significance.The postoperative drainage volume in the observation group was significantly less than that in the control group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).The HGB difference of observation group was significantly lower than that of control group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant differ-ence in ROM and HSS scores between the two groups before surgery;the ROM and HSS scores of the control group at 7,14 and 45 days after surgery was better than that of the observation group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05);the ROM and HSS scores of the two groups at 3 months after surgery was not statistically significant.The ROM and HSS scores in the observation group was better than that in the control group at 6 months and 1 year after operation,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions CR prosthesis is superior to PS prosthesis in terms of intraoperative blood loss and post-operative drainage volume,which can reduce surgical risk.Both kinds of prosthesis can achieve good knee stability after surgery,while PS prosthesis has better early clinical effect,while CR prosthesis has better long-term clinical effect.

Objective:To examine the clinical effect of endovascular treatment for patients with non-acute symptomatic anterior circulation distal medium artery disease (aDMAD).Methods:This is a retrospective case series study.Retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 28 patients(29 lesions) with non-acute symptomatic aDMAD who underwent endovascular treatment at the Department of Neurosurgery,Beijing Hospital from May 2018 to March 2024. There were 15 males and 13 females,with an age of (63.4±10.2) years (range:36 to 82 years). The course of disease were more than 72 hours of all the patients. Confirmed by digital subtraction angiography,the lesion was located in distal anterior circulation and (or) medium arteries. Among them, 21 lesions (72.4%) located at middle cerebral artery and 8 lesions (27.6%) located at anterior cerebral artery.The median degree of stenosis before surgery ( M(IQR)) was 90%(23%) (range:70% to 100%).After standardized drug treatment,there was still a transient ischemic attack or cerebral infarction in the vascular related area.The therapeutic effects and complications were analyzed,and the differences in the occurrence of target vessel restenosis under different interventional treatment methods were collected. Results:A total of 28 patients with 29 lesions underwent endovascular treatment, with a treatment success rate of 96.6% (28/29). The course of disease was 60(66)days (range:9 to 210 days). Simple plain balloon angioplasty was performed in 12 cases (13 lesions), drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty in 7 cases (7 lesions), and stent placement in 9 cases (9 lesions). The median degree of stenosis after surgery was 20%(39%) (range:0 to 50%). There was no new cerebral infarctions,cerebral hemorrhages,or other complications during the perioperative period.Imaging follow-up was conducted on 23 lesions for 12(15)months(range:3 to 34 months),with 10 cases (43.5%) of restenosis,3 cases (13.0%) of symptomatic restenosis,and 4 cases (17.4%) of re-treatment. There were no new cases of cerebral hemorrhage or death during the follow-up process.The restenosis rate was 6/10 for the conventional balloon group,1/6 for the DCB group, and 3/7 for the stent group; the rate of symptomatic restenosis was 1/10 for the conventional balloon group,0/6 for the DCB group, and 2/7 for the stent group.Conclusions:Endovascular treatment for non-acute symptomatic aDMAD is relatively effective,but there is a high rate of restenosis postoperatively. DCB may reduce the occurrence of postoperative restenosis.

Objective:To investigate the impact of body mass index (BMI) on the postoperative complications of open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD).Methods:The preoperative, operative and postoperative data of 234 patients who underwent OPD in the Department of the Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery of First Affiliated Hospital affiliated to Naval Medical University from January 2015 to June 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the Asian BMI standard, the patients were divided into three groups: underweight group (BMI<18.5 kg/m 2, n=32), normal weight group (18.5 kg/m 2≤BMI<23.0 kg/m 2, n=110) and overweight group (BMI≥23.0 kg/m 2, n=92). Normal weight group was compared with underweight group and overweight group, respectively, to analyze the relationship between BMI and intraoperative parameters and major postoperative complications of OPD. Results:The incidence of diabetes in underweight group was lower than that in normal weight group, and the proportion of ASA score 3 in underweight group was higher than that in normal weight group, and there were significantly statistical differences (both P value <0.05). There was no significant difference on the other variables between underweight group, normal weight group and overweight group. The operation time, intraoperative hemorrhage volume >800 ml and intraoperative blood transfusion rate were not statistically different between underweight group and normal weight group, but overweight group had obviously higher intraoperative blood transfusion rate than normal weight group and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Underweight group had more postoperative intraperitoneal hemorrhage and postoperative blood transfusion rate than normal weight group, and the readmission rate in underweight group was less than that in normal weight group; the incidence of clinically related-post operative pancreatic fistula, postoperative infection, gastrointestinal bleeding and delayed gastric emptying in overweight group were significantly higher than those in normal weight group, and there were significantly statistical differences (all P value <0.05). In underweight group, normal weight group and overweight group, the average length of hospital stay were 9.9 days, 11.3 days, 15 days, and the total hospitalization expenses were 63663.04 yuan, 66241.78 yuan and 80484.31 yuan, respectively. Conclusions:Compared to normal weight patients, the difficulty of OPD in underweight patients does not increase, while the difficulty of OPD in overweight patients increases. Underweight and overweight could both increase the postoperative complications of OPD to some extent.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.

Objective:To explore the benefits of transradial diagnostic cerebral angiography in elderly patients and its correlation with morphometric parameters of the aortic arch.Methods:Clinical data and aortic arch CTA imaging parameters of patients who underwent cerebral angiography at the Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Hospital, between May 2022 and April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The study aimed to compare the time taken for angiography via radial artery access in elderly patients versus younger patients, as well as via femoral artery access, and to evaluate the associated aortic arch morphology parameters.Results:A total of 101 patients' data were analyzed, with 67 males(66.3%)and an average age of 63.4±12.0 years.Among them, 69 patients(68.3%)were aged 60 and above.The arterial approach for 44 patients(43.6%)was radial, while 57 cases(56.4%)used the femoral artery approach.In the elderly group, 14 cases(20.6%), 31 cases(45.6%), and 23 cases(33.8%)had type Ⅲ aortic arch, respectively.For younger patients, 17 cases(53.1%), 12 cases(37.5%), and 3 cases(9.4%)fell into these categories.The distribution difference was statistically significant( χ2=12.765, P=0.002).Elderly patients had a larger aortic arch width angle compared to younger patients(106°±12°and 100°±12°, t=2.334, P=0.022).The time for whole-brain angiography via radial artery was shorter for elderly patients than via femoral artery(39.8±29.5 minutes and 52.2±28.4 minutes, respectively, t=1.845, P=0.070).In young patients, there was no significant time difference between the two approaches(42.3±30.4 minutes for radial artery and 34.6±11.2 minutes for femoral artery, t=1.026, P=0.313).In the type Ⅱ aortic arch group, the average times for transradial and transfemoral approaches were 38.1±21.7 minutes and 46.7±32.2 minutes, respectively( t=1.020, P=0.314).The average times for the type Ⅲ aortic arch group were 41.9±37.3 minutes and 48.9±20.7 minutes, respectively.Correlation analysis revealed a significant negative correlation between the duration of radial artery access and the distance from the origin of the innominate artery to the left subclavian artery(Pearson correlation coefficien( r=-0.372, P=0.014). Conclusions:In elderly patients, particularly those with type Ⅱ or Ⅲ aortic arch or a wide aortic arch, diagnostic cerebral angiography using transradial access is preferable to femoral access.The distance between the innominate artery and the left subclavian artery origin could impact the duration of the procedure.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical bacterial isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2021.Methods:The clinical bacterial strains isolated from blood culture from member hospitals of Blood Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System (BRICS) were collected during January 2021 to December 2021. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). WHONET 5.6 was used to analyze data.Results:During the study period, 11 013 bacterial strains were collected from 51 hospitals, of which 2 782 (25.3%) were Gram-positive bacteria and 8 231 (74.7%) were Gram-negative bacteria. The top 10 bacterial species were Escherichia coli (37.6%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (18.9%), Staphylococcus aureus (9.8%), coagulase-negative Staphylococci (6.3%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3.6%), Enterococcus faecium (3.6%), Acinetobacter baumannii (2.8%), Enterococcus faecalis (2.7%), Enterobacter cloacae (2.5%) and Klebsiella spp (2.1%). The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus aureus were 25.3% and 76.8%, respectively. No glycopeptide- and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci was detected; more than 95.0% of Staphylococcus aureus were sensitive to ceftobiprole. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci strains were detected. The rates of extended spectrum B-lactamase (ESBL)-producing isolated in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis were 49.6%, 25.5% and 39.0%, respectively. The prevalence rates of carbapenem-resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 2.2% and 15.8%, respectively; 7.9% of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae was resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination. Ceftobiprole demonstrated excellent activity against non-ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Aztreonam/avibactam was highly active against carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The prevalence rate of carbapenem-resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii was 60.0%, while polymyxin and tigecycline showed good activity against Acinetobacter baumannii (5.5% and 4.5%). The prevalence of carbapenem-resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 18.9%. Conclusions:The BRICS surveillance results in 2021 shows that the main pathogens of blood stream infection in China are gram-negative bacteria, in which Escherichia coli is the most common. The MRSA incidence shows a further decreasing trend in China and the overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is low. The prevalence of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is still on a high level, but the trend is downwards.
