A rapid analytical method for determination of paraquat and diquat in tea samples was established by improving the QuEChERS pre-treatment method combined with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem quadrupole mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS/MS).Four kinds of tea powder were extracted by using acetonitrile-0.1％formic acid solution(3∶7,V/V)and ultrasonic treatment,and the supernatant was purified with 400 mg C18 and 400 mg PSA and separated on hydrophilic HILIC(100 mm×2.1 mm,1.8 μm)column by using 0.1％formic acid aqueous solution(Containing 5 mmol/L ammonium formate)and acetonitrile as mobile phases.In the electrospray ion source positive ion mode(ESI+),multiple reaction monitoring scanning technology(MRM)was used for determination,and the matrix-matched standard solution external standard method was used for quantitative analysis.The results showed that paraquat obtained good linear relationship in the content range of 0.18-200 μg/kg and diquat obtained good linear relationship in the content range of 0.36-200 μg/kg,and the correlation coefficients(R2)were 0.9939-0.9976 and 0.9959-0.9987,respectively.The limits of detection(LODs)were 0.06 and 0.12 μg/kg,and the limits of quantitation(LOQs)were 0.18 and 0.36 μg/kg,respectively.The average spiked recoveries for tea samples varied from 84.4％to 128.8％,with the relative standard deviations(RSDs)from 0.6％to 13.5％.The method was simple and efficient,with accurate quantification ability and low detection limit,which could realize efficient determination of paraquat and diquat in tea samples.

Objective Recombinase-aided polymerase chain reaction(RAP)is a sensitive,single-tube,two-stage nucleic acid amplification method.This study aimed to develop an assay that can be used for the early diagnosis of three types of bacteremia caused by Staphylococcus aureus(SA),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(PA),and Acinetobacter baumannii(AB)in the bloodstream based on recombinant human mannan-binding lectin protein(M1 protein)-conjugated magnetic bead(M1 bead)enrichment of pathogens combined with RAP. Methods Recombinant plasmids were used to evaluate the assay sensitivity.Common blood influenza bacteria were used for the specific detection.Simulated and clinical plasma samples were enriched with M1 beads and then subjected to multiple recombinase-aided PCR(M-RAP)and quantitative PCR(qPCR)assays.Kappa analysis was used to evaluate the consistency between the two assays. Results The M-RAP method had sensitivity rates of 1,10,and 1 copies/μL for the detection of SA,PA,and AB plasmids,respectively,without cross-reaction to other bacterial species.The M-RAP assay obtained results for<10 CFU/mL pathogens in the blood within 4 h,with higher sensitivity than qPCR.M-RAP and qPCR for SA,PA,and AB yielded Kappa values of 0.839,0.815,and 0.856,respectively(P<0.05). Conclusion An M-RAP assay for SA,PA,and AB in blood samples utilizing M1 bead enrichment has been developed and can be potentially used for the early detection of bacteremia.

Objective To evaluate the in vitro effect of combinations of 5 β-lactam antibiotics with different β-lac-tamase inhibitors on the activity of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis(MDR-TB),and identify the most effective combination of β-lactam antibiotics and β-lactamase inhibitors against MDR-TB.Methods MDR-TB strains collected in Henan Province Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Project in 2021 were selected.The mini-mum inhibitory concentrations(MIC)of 5 β-lactam antibiotics or combinations with different β-lactamase inhibitors on clinically isolated MDR-TB strains were measured by MIC detection method,and the blaC mutation of the strains was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and DNA sequencing.Results A total of 105 strains of MDR-TB were included in the analysis.MIC detection results showed that doripenem had the highest antibacterial activity against MDR-TB,with a MIC50 of 16 μg/mL.MIC values of most β-lactam antibiotics decreased significantly after combined with β-lactamase inhibitors.A total of 13.33％(n=14)strains had mutations in blaC gene,mainly 3 nu-cleotide substitution mutations,namely AGT333AGG,AAC638ACC and ATC786ATT.BlaC proteins Ser111 Arg and Asn213Thr enhanced the synergistic effect of clavulanic acid/sulbactam and meropenem on MDR-TB compared with synonymous single-nucleotide mutation.Conclusion The combination of doripenem and sulbactam has the strongest antibacterial activity against MDR-TB.Substitution mutations of BlaC protein Ser111 Arg and Asn213Thr enhances the sensitivity of MDR-TB to meropenem through the synergy with clavulanic acid/sulbactam.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion(Mis-TLIF)technique combined with preoperative position reduction in the treatment of spondylolisthesis and summarize its advan-tages.Methods Between July 2016 and July 2022,60 patients with lumbar isthmic spondylolisthesis were retrospectively ana-lyzed,including 26 males and 34 females,with an average age of(51.32±4.24)years old ranging from 35 to 72 years old.They were divided into observation group and control group according to the operation methods.There were 30 patients in the obser-vation group,including 12 males and 18 females;the age ranged from 35 to 71 years old with an average of(51.80±6.38)years old,the course of disease ranged from 12 to 60 months with an average of(24.17±1.98)months;there were 18 cases of L4 spondylolisthesis and 12 cases of L5 spondylolisthesis;according to Meyerding classification,there were 20 cases of grade Ⅰspondylolisthesis and 10 cases of grade Ⅱ.The observation group was treated with preoperative postural reduction combined with intraoperative reduction assisted minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar fusion via Quadrant channel(Mis-TLIF).There were 30 patients in the control group,including 14 males and 16 females,with an average of(50.00±4.24)years old ranging from 36 to 72 years old;the course of disease ranged from 12 to 60 months with an average of(23.70±1.53)months;there were 16 cases of L4 spondylolisthesis and 14 cases of L5 spondylolisthesis;according to Meyerding classification,there were 19 cases of grade Ⅰ spondylolisthesis and 11 cases of grade Ⅱ.The control group was treated with open transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion(Open-TLIF).The differences of operation time,intraoperative and postoperative blood loss,hospital stay,radiation exposure time and complications between the two groups were analyzed.Visual analogue scale(VAS),Oswestry disability index(ODI)and Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA)score were used to evaluate the clinical effect.X-ray and CT were followed up to evaluate the interbody fusion.Results All patients were followed up for 12 months.There was no signifi-cant difference in operation time,VAS of low back pain,slip angle and slip rate between two groups(P＞0.05).The intraoperative and postoperative blood loss in the observation group(165.50±15.56)ml and(59.17±10.59)ml were less than those in the con-trol group(259.33±35.32)ml and(165.33±29.56)ml(P＜0.05).The length of hospital stay in the observation group(3.53±0.68)days was less than that in the control group(5.20±0.41)days(P＜0.05).The intervertebral space height,slip angle,slip rate,ODI,VAS and JOA scores were significantly improved in the two groups at the final follow-up(P＜0.05).There were signifi-cant differences in ODI[(9.93±1.11)％vs(10.93±1.11)％]and JOA[(26.07±1.01)points vs(25.43±1.25)points]between the observation group and the control group at the final follow-up(P＜0.05).Conclusion In the treatment of spondylolisthesis,preoperative position reduction combined with intraoperative reduction assisted Mis-Tlif technique has advantages of less trau-ma,less bleeding and shorter hospitalization period than traditional open surgery.It is a safe and effective technique.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of total hip arthroplasty(THA)with and without femoral osteotomy in Crowe Ⅳ developmental hip dislocation(DDH).Methods The data on 46 patients who underwent THA for unilateral Crowe ⅣDDH between 2012 and 2017 were analyzed retrospectively.They were divided into two groups according to the different surgical methods.There were 24 patients in the osteotomy group,3 males and 21 females,with an average age of(47.3±9.0)years old ranged from 34 to 57 years old;and 22 patients in the non-osteotomy group,2 males and 20 females,with an average age of(51.6±8.3)years old ranged from 40 to 61 years old.The operative time,bleed loss,postoperative drainage volume,postoperative com-plications,ROM of hip,Harris hip score,limb length discrepancy(LLD),and radiological data were recorded.The femoral dislo-cation height and the implantation depth of sleeve were measured.Results All patients were followed up.The mean follow-up time was(3.8±1.2)years ranged from 2 to 6 years in the osteotomy group and(3.2±0.9)years ranged from 1 to 5 years in the non-os-teotomy group.The operative time(136.8±18.9)min,bleed loss(709.8±89.4)ml,postoperative drainage volume(308.8±98.2)ml of osteotomy group were all significantly greater than those of non-osteotomy group(100.7±15.8)min,(516.5±103.3)ml,(245.3±79.3)ml(P＜0.05).The Harris score at the latest follow up was significantly increased compared with preoperative score in two groups(P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between two groups(P＞0.05).The LLD at last follow up was sig-nificantly increased compared with preoperative LLD in two groups,the LLD in non-osteotomy group(0.7±0.2)cm showed signif-cant smaller than the two osteotomy group(1.2±0.4)cm.Between osteotomy and non-osteotomy groups,the preoperative range of motion of hip joint[(89.5±19.7)°vs(102.5±16.8)°],the preoperative height of dislocation of femoral head[(4.56±0.61)cm vs(3.10±0.73)cm],the proximal implant depth of S-ROM[(0.93±0.36)cm vs(1.67±0.28)cm]was significantly different(P＜0.05).Eleven patients in the osteotomy group still had claudication,and 4 patients in the non-osteotomy group had mild claudica-tion(P＜0.05).In non-osteotomy group,3 patients developed nerve injury(1 patient of sciatic nerve,2 patients of femoral nerve)and 1 case developed periprosthetic fracture.In osteotomy group,2 case of dislocation and 2 cases of periprosthetic fractures.Conclusion Whether osteotomy or not can achieve satisfactory results for treating Crowe type Ⅳ DDH and significantly improve LLD.However,osteotomy is more complex and time-consuming,limb length difference is greater,and the incidence of claudica-tion is higher.Furthermore,patients with smaller preoperative hip mobility,higher femoral dislocation,limb lengthening≥4 cm and severely narrow femoral proximal canals are prone to be peformed with subtrochanteric osteotomy.

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.

Objective To understand the distribution and changing resistance profiles of clinical isolates of Enterococcus in hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was conducted for the clinical isolates of Enterococcus according to the unified protocol of CHINET program by automated systems,Kirby-Bauer method,or E-test strip.The results were interpreted according to the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints in 2021.WHONET 5.6 software was used for statistical analysis.Results A total of 124 565 strains of Enterococcus were isolated during the 7-year period,mainly including Enterococcus faecalis(50.7％)and Enterococcus faecalis(41.5％).The strains were mainly isolated from urinary tract specimens(46.9％±2.6％),and primarily from the patients in the department of internal medicine,surgery and ICU.E.faecium and E.faecalis strains showed low level resistance rate to vancomycin,teicoplanin and linezolid(≤3.6％).The prevalence of vancomycin-resistant E.faecalis and E.faecium was 0.1％and 1.3％,respectively.The prevalence of linezolid-resistant E.faecalis increased from 0.7％in 2015 to 3.4％in 2021,while the prevalence of linezolid-resistant E.faecium was 0.3％.Conclusions The clinical isolates of Enterococcus were still highly susceptible to vancomycin,teicoplanin,and linezolid,evidenced by a low resistance rate.However,the prevalence of linezolid-resistant E.faecalis was increasing during the 7-year period.It is necessary to strengthen antimicrobial resistance surveillance to effectively identify the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and curb the spread of resistant pathogens.
