Objective To explore the quantitative evaluation of integrity risk prevention and control in public hospitals,provide reference for improving the quality and efficiency of integrity risk prevention and control.Methods Self-designed"Inspection Standards for Integrity Risk Prevention and Control of Power Matters in Public Hospitals"was used to score and rate the power matters provided by each functional department/clinical department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from three aspects:the clarity of power operation process,the accuracy of finding integrity risk points,the effectiveness of prevention and control measures.Results A total of 236 power matters of the hospital were inspected for integrity risk prevention and control,and according to the inspection criteria,57 items were rated as first grade,103 items were rated as second grade,and 76 items were rated as third grade,accounting for 24.15％,43.64％and 32.20％,respectively.The score for the special work of integrity risk prevention and control was 5.82±1.92 points,of which the process dimension score was 2.11±0.75 points,the risk points dimension score was 1.89±0.92 points,the prevention and control dimension score is 1.89± 0.79 points,which reflects the problems of unclear workflow,inaccurate finding of individual risk points,and unspecified prevention and control measures in some units.Conclusion Hospitals should focus on the concreteness,accuracy,salience and quantification in the long-term construction of integrity risk prevention and control from the aspects of thought,behavior,effectiveness and evaluation.

Objective To study the anti-reflux effect of conical gastric stump embedding in radical resection of esophageal cancer.Methods A total of 60 patients who planned to undergo radical resection of esophageal cancer in our hospital from June 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the study objects,and the patients were divided into the observation group and the control group by random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.Patients in both groups underwent laparoscopic radical resection of esophageal cancer and esophagogastric end-to-side mechanical anastomosis.The observation group adopted the conical gastric stump embedding technique after esophagogastric end-to-side mechanical anastomosis.The perioperative related indexes,postoperative complications and gastroesophageal reflux of patients in the two groups were compared.The postoperative anti-reflux effect was evaluated by reflux disease questionnaire(RDQ)score and 24-hour intraesophageal pH monitoring.Results The operation time and digestive tract reconstruction time of patients in the observation group were longer than those in the control group(P<0.05),while there was no statistically significant difference in the amount of intraoperative bleeding,the number of lymph node dissection,the first exhaust time,or the postoperative hospital stay of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the overall incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups(P>0.05).The severity of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux of patients in the observation group was lighter than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The RDQ score,24-hour reflux frequency,>5 minutes reflux frequency,pH<4 time,and longest reflux time of patients in the observation group was significantly lower/less/shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The conical gastric stump embedding technique is safe and feasible in the radical resection of esophageal cancer.Although the operation time and digestive tract reconstruction time are slightly prolonged,it does not increase the perioperative risks,which can significantly reduce the occurrence and severity of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux of patients,and achieve a good anti-reflux effect.

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.

Objectives: To investigated the safety and efficacy of treating patients with acute non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and elevated levels of N-terminal pro-hormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) with levosimendan within 24 hours of first medical contact (FMC). Methods: This multicenter, open-label, block-randomized controlled trial (NCT03189901) investigated the safety and efficacy of levosimendan as an early management strategy of acute heart failure (EMS-AHF) for patients with NSTEMI and high NT-proBNP levels. This study included 255 patients with NSTEMI and elevated NT-proBNP levels, including 142 males and 113 females with a median age of 65 (58-70) years, and were admitted in the emergency or outpatient departments at 14 medical centers in China between October 2017 and October 2021. The patients were randomly divided into a levosimendan group (n=129) and a control group (n=126). The primary outcome measure was NT-proBNP levels on day 3 of treatment and changes in the NT-proBNP levels from baseline on day 5 after randomization. The secondary outcome measures included the proportion of patients with more than 30% reduction in NT-proBNP levels from baseline, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) during hospitalization and at 6 months after hospitalization, safety during the treatment, and health economics indices. The measurement data parameters between groups were compared using the t-test or the non-parametric test. The count data parameters were compared between groups using the χ² test. Results: On day 3, the NT-proBNP levels in the levosimendan group were lower than the control group but were statistically insignificant [866 (455, 1 960) vs. 1 118 (459, 2 417) ng/L, Z=-1.25,P=0.21]. However, on day 5, changes in the NT-proBNP levels from baseline in the levosimendan group were significantly higher than the control group [67.6% (33.8%,82.5%)vs.54.8% (7.3%,77.9%), Z=-2.14, P=0.03]. There were no significant differences in the proportion of patients with more than 30% reduction in the NT-proBNP levels on day 5 between the levosimendan and the control groups [77.5% (100/129) vs. 69.0% (87/126), χ²=2.34, P=0.13]. Furthermore, incidences of MACE did not show any significant differences between the two groups during hospitalization [4.7% (6/129) vs. 7.1% (9/126), χ²=0.72, P=0.40] and at 6 months [14.7% (19/129) vs. 12.7% (16/126), χ²=0.22, P=0.64]. Four cardiac deaths were reported in the control group during hospitalization [0 (0/129) vs. 3.2% (4/126), P=0.06]. However, 6-month survival rates were comparable between the two groups (log-rank test, P=0.18). Moreover, adverse events or serious adverse events such as shock, ventricular fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia were not reported in both the groups during levosimendan treatment (days 0-1). The total cost of hospitalization [34 591.00(15 527.46,59 324.80) vs. 37 144.65(16 066.90,63 919.00)yuan, Z=-0.26, P=0.80] and the total length of hospitalization [9 (8, 12) vs. 10 (7, 13) days, Z=0.72, P=0.72] were lower for patients in the levosimendan group compared to those in the control group, but did not show statistically significant differences. Conclusions: Early administration of levosimendan reduced NT-proBNP levels in NSTEMI patients with elevated NT-proBNP and did not increase the total cost and length of hospitalization, but did not significantly improve MACE during hospitalization or at 6 months.

Objective To explore the role pathway and pattern of the myeloma cancer gene (MYC) and its mRNA interaction with the microRNAs(miRNAs) and circular RNA(circRNAs) at hour 0, hour 6 and hour 72 in the rat liver regeneration. Methods The rat 2/3 hepatectomy (PH) model was prepared as described by Higgins, the hepatocytes were isolated according to the method of Smedsrod et al. The expression changes of mRNA, miRNA and circRNA [together named as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA)] were detected by the large-scale quantitative detection technology, the interaction network of ceRNA was constructed by Cytoscape 3.2 software, and their correlation in expression and role were analyzed by ceRNA comprehensive analysis. Results It was found that at hour 0 and hour 6 after PH, the ratio value of MYC mRNA showed 0.15±0.03 and 2.36±0.20, miR-134-5p indicated 3.22±0.61 and 0.08±0.02, circRNA_12112 displayed 0.68±0.21 and 13.35±3.53. At the same time, the cell cycle initiation-related genes ras association domain family member 1 (RASSF1), cyclin dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), which were promoted in expression by MYC, were down-regulated at hour 0 after PH, but the cell cycle initiation-related genes nestin (NES), RAD21 cohesin complex component (RAD21), CUE domain containing 2 (CUEDC2), which are inhibieted in expression by MYC, had no meaningful express changes at hour 0 after PH. On the other hand, the cell cycle initiation-related gene SOD2, which was promoted in expression by MYC, was up-regulated at hour 6 after PH, but the cell cycle initiation-related genes NES, RAD21, CUEDC2, which are inhibieted in expression by MYC, were down-regulated at hour 6 after PH. In contrary, at hour 72 after PH, the ratio value of MYC mRNA showed 2.36±0.20, miR-880-3p indicated 0.54±0.01, circRNA_09599 displayd 0.54±0.16. At the same time, the cell cycle termination-related gene hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), which is promoted in expression by MYC, was up-regulated 72 hours after PH, the cell cycle termination-related genes MET proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase (MET) and cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (CDKN1A), which are inhibieted in expression by MYC, were down-regulated 72 hours after PH. Conclusion The correlation in expression and role of the miRNAs, which are inhibited by circRNAs, MYC, its mRNA is inhibited by miRNAs, and the cell cycle initiation-related and cell cycle termination-related genes, which are regulated by MYC, are helpful for the hepatocyte to be in cell cycle initiation state at hour 6 after PH and to be in cell cycle termination state at hour 72 after PH.

Objective To investigate the Gram-positive coccus resistance in nationwide's tertiary hospitals and understand the trend of antimicrobial resistance.Methods 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 1 974 pathogenic Gram-positive coccus from 19 tertiary hospitals in 19 cities nationwide over the period from July 2021 to June 2022 were studied.Based on the MIC results,the prevalence of methicillin resistant Stapylococcus aureus(MRSA)and methicillin resistant Stapylococcus epidermidis(MRSE)were 36.4％and 79.9％respectively.No vancomycin insensitivity Staphylococcus was detected.Staphylococcus aureus were 100％susceptibility to linezolid and teicoplanin.Antibiotic resistance rate of Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium to ampicillin were 3.1％and 92.9％.The detectation rate of vancomycin resistant Enterococcus(VRE)was 1.6％.Nonsusceptibility rate of Enterococcus faecalis to linezolid was 32.2％,two consecutive monitoring rises and nonsusceptibility rate of Enterococcus faecium(12.5％)was also significantly increased.The prevalence of penicillin non-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae(PNSSP)was 0.8％based on non-meningitis and parenteral administration criterion,decrease of nearly 30 percentage points from the previous surveillance.While for cases of oral penicillin,the rate was 71.8％,showing similar to last time.The results indicated that the number of strains with higher MIC value of penicillin(MIC ≥4 mg·L-1)decreased significantly.There were no significant differences of resistance rates of Stapylococcus aureus,Stapylococcus epidermidis,Enterococcus faecalis,Enterococcus faecium and Streptococcus pneumoniae among various groups such as different department,age,or specimen source.Conclusion VRE detection ratio stablized at a relatively low level.The number of Streptococcus pneumoniae with higher MIC value of penicillin decreased significantly compared with the previous monitoring.The increase of linezolidin-insensitive Enterococcus was noteworthy.

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.

Objective:To investigate the value of T 1ρ mapping in the assessment of myocardial fibrosis in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods:Forty HCM patients and 16 healthy volunteers who underwent CMR examination between December 2021 and May 2022 were prospectively enrolled. T 1ρ mapping, pre-and post-contrast T 1 mapping, and gadolinium contrast-enhanced delayed enhancement (LGE) imaging were performed in HCM patients, while T 1ρ mapping and T 1 mapping were performed in volunteers. HCM patients were further divided into LGE-positive (LGE+) and LGE-negative (LGE-) groups based on the presence or absence of LGE. The T 1ρ and pre-contrast T 1 values of the left ventricular myocardium of HCM patients and volunteers were measured, and the extracellular volume fraction (ECV) of the left ventricular myocardium of HCM patients was measured using pre-and post-contrast T 1 mapping. One-way ANOVA was used to compare the T 1ρ and pre-contrast T 1 values among the LGE+, LGE-, and volunteer groups, and pairwise comparisons were further corrected using the Bonferroni method. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic performance of pre-contrast T 1 and T 1ρ values in distinguishing LGE+ and LGE- patients from volunteers. The chi-square test or Fisher′s exact probability test was used for categorical variable comparisons. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to evaluate the correlation between T 1ρ and pre-contrast T 1, and ECV. Results:There were no significant differences in age, gender, and body surface area among the LGE+, LGE-, and healthy control groups ( P>0.05). Compared to the HC group, both the T 1ρ value ( t=5.74, P<0.001) and the pre-contrast T 1 value ( t=3.99, P<0.001) increased in LGE positive group, as well as in the LGE negative group (T 1ρ: t=4.19, P<0.001; T 1: t=2.06, P<0.044). ROC analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of T 1ρ and pre-contrast T 1 in distinguishing LGE+patients from healthy controls were 0.93 (sensitivity 84.0%, specificity 93.8%) and 0.87 (sensitivity 84.0%, specificity 87.5%), respectively. The AUC of T 1ρ and pre-contrast T 1 in distinguishing LGE-patients from healthy controls were 0.84 (sensitivity 86.7%, specificity 68.8%) and 0.68 (sensitivity 60%, specificity 68.8%), respectively. The correlation analysis showed that the T 1ρ value of the left ventricular myocardium was positively correlated with the pre-contrast T 1 value ( r=0.31, P=0.02) and ECV value ( r=0.38, P=0.02). Conclusion:Without the use of contrast agents, T 1ρ mapping shows good performance for myocardial replacement fibrosis and diffuse fibrosis in HCM patients.
