ObjectiveTo understand the current status of Cronobacter sakazakii (Cronobacter spp.) infection and its molecular epidemiological characteristics among patients with diarrhea, so as to provide evidence for the prevention and control of diarrhea disease caused by infection with Cronobacter spp. in Changping District, Beijing. Methods760 stool samples were collected from the diarrhea patients in a sentinel hospital in 2019, for the detection of Cronobacter spp., Salmonella, diarrheogenic Escherichia coli (DEC), and Vibrio Parahaemolyticus. Meanwhile, drug sensitivity experiment and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) typing analysis were conducted on the Cronobacter spp. strains isolated. ResultsA total of 20 Cronobacter spp. strains (2.63%) were isolated, with a lower detection rate than that of Salmonella and Vibrio Parahaemolyticus (χ²=9.052, P=0.011). However, there were no statistically significant differences between the detection rates in Cronobacter spp. and DEC (χ²=1.076, P=0.300). Seasonal characterization analysis showed that Cronobacter spp. could be detected in spring (1.00%), summer (4.17%), autumn (3.00%) and winter (1.67%), and the differences were statistically significant (χ²=662.700, P<0.001). The PFGE analysis showed that 20 PFGE banding patterns were found in 20 Cronobacter spp. strains, with a similarity coefficient ranging from 56.30% to 90.09% and a diverse PFGE banding pattern. The drug sensitivity experiment results showed that 18 (90.00%) strains were resistant to cefazolin, and2 (10.00%) strains were intermediate. While, as for cefoxitin, 2 (10.00%) strains were resistant to it, and 5 (25.00%) strains were intermediate. All the 20 strains were 100.00% sensitive to the other 11 antibiotics. ConclusionIn the study, Cronobacter spp. is detected in all seasons through the year, with a high resistance rate to cefazolin, no multi-drug resistant bacteria appeared, and diverse PFGE banding patterns.

Objective The objective of this study is to investigate whether there is a correlation between a high TyG index(serum triglyceride glucose index)and higher mortality rates among patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis(PD).Methods This study utilized a single-center retrospective cohort as the basis for its methods..From January 1,2007 to December 31,2015,a total of 519 PD patients kept under observation until December 31,2018.There searchers employed the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards modelsto examine the cor-relation between TyG index levels and mortality.Results Over a period of 40.5 months,104(20.0%)individuals with Parkinson's disease passed away,with 55(52.9%)of these deaths attributed to cardiovascular disease(CVD).The serum median TyG index at baseline was 8.44(6.48,11.94).Through Cox regression analysis subject to the adjustments of such parameters as gender,age,body mass index(BMI),presence of cardiovascular disease,hypertension,diabetes mellitus,hemoglobin,serum albumin,serum Ferritin,total cholesterol,renal residual function(RRF),An increased risk of all-cause mortality(HR = 2.22,95%CI:1.43～3.44,P＜0.001)and CVD mortality(HR = 2.50,95%CI:1.34～4.65,P = 0.004)was observed with a higher baseline TyG index(8.44).A comparable impact was observed in the correlation between the average TyG index over time(TA-TyG index)and both all-cause mortality and CVD mortality.(HR = 1.90,95%CI:1.25～2.90,P = 0.003;HR = 2.05,95%CI:1.14～3.70,P = 0.017,respectively).Conclusion PD patients with a higher serum TyG index have a greater risk of all-cause mortality and mortality related to cardiovascular disease.

Objective To investigate the effect of sakubatrotril and valsartan in the treatment of heart failure after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)for acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods AMI patients who received PCI were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.Both groups were given routine basic treatment such as anti-platelet aggregation,lipidregulation,β-blocker and diuretic tolasemide,while the control group was given enalapril maleate tablet(5 mg,bid).The treatment group was given sacubactril valsartan sodium tablets(5 mg,bid)in addition to basic treatment.The clinical efficacy,myocardial injury markers,cardiac function,ventricular remodeling indexes,vascular endothelial function and cardiovascular adverse events(MACEs)were compared between the two groups.Results The treatment group and the control group were enrolled in 40 patients.After 3 months of treatment,the total effective rate of the treatment group was 95.00％and that of the control group was 80.00％.The difference between the total effective rate of the treatment group and the control group was statistically significant(P＜0.05).After 3 months of treatment,the levels of creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB)in treatment group and control group were(30.23±5.28)and(36.58±7.05)U·L-1,respectively;cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnⅠ)were(1.04±0.18)and(1.25±0.31)ng·mL-1,respectively;left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)were(40.29±6.32)％and(34.39±5.62)％,and endothelium-dependent diastolic function(FMD)were(15.72±2.83)％and(9.55±2.05)％,respectively;nitric oxide(NO)levels were(47.41±5.85)and(41.28±3.37)μmol·L-1;endothelin-1(ET-1)was(70.53±8.29)and(83.62±10.11)ng·L-1,respectively.Compared with the control group,the above indexes in treatment groups were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The incidence of MACEs was 10.00％in treatment group and 25.00％in control group,with no statistical significance(P＞0.05).After 3 months of treatment,the incidence of adverse drug reactions in AMI patients in treatment group was 12.50％,and that in control group was 17.50％.There was no statistical significance in the incidence of adverse drug reactions in treatment group compared with control group(P＞0.05).Conclusion Sacubactril valsartan can effectively prevent ventricular remodeling and improve vascular endothelial function in patients with heart failure after PCI.

Proteasome activator PA28γ,also known as Ki antigen,REGγ or PSME3,is first found as Ki antigen in the serum of a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus,which belongs to 11S proteasome activator family together with PA28α and PA28β.In the amino acid sequence,PA28γ has 25%homology with PA28α and PA28β and its seven-subunit homomer is a 20S proteasome acti-vator,which mainly exists in the nucleus and participates in ubiquitin and ATP-dependent or independent protein degradation.More and more studies have reported the role of PA28γ in human immune-related diseases.This article reviews the function of PA28γ as a proteasome activator and its role in immune-related diseases including cancer,inflammation and virus infection-related diseases and other diseases in recent years,so as to reveal the role of PA28γ in the occurrence and development of immune-related diseases and its potential as a target for immunotherapy.

Objective:To explore the clinical value of a trinity strategy for the treatment of multiple orthopedic trauma.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 1 267 patients with multiple orthopedic trauma admitted to Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine and the First Affiliated Hospital of Navy Medical University from June 2013 to May 2023, including 862 males and 405 females, aged 18-93 years [(55.2±19.8)years]. Associated injuries included hemorrhagic shock in 632 patients, traumatic wet lung in 274, cranial injuries in 135, abdominal and pelvic bleeding in 116, pneumothorax in 89, urinary injury in 13, and vesical rupture in 8. All the patients were treated with the trinity strategy and the treatment process was divided into the phases of first aid, remodeling, and rehabilitation. The first aid phase focused on stabilizing symptoms and saving lives; the remodeling phase centered on restoring the anatomical structure and alignment; the rehabilitation phase aimed for functional recovery through the integration of both Western and traditional Chinese medicine. The all-cause mortality within 30 days after surgery and fracture healing time were calculated; the excellent and good rates of Constant-Murley shoulder score, Mayo elbow score, Gartland-Werley wrist score, Harris hip score, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee score and the American Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score at the last follow-up and the overall excellent and good rate of all joint function scores were measured. The short form health survey (SF-36) scores were collected preoperatively and at 6 months postoperatively, including 8 aspects such as physical functioning, physical role, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, emotional role, and mental health. The incidence of postoperative complications was recorded.Results:All the patients were followed up for 6-18 months [(10.2±4.2)months]. The mortality rate during the acute phase (within 30 days after surgery) was 2.37% with 12 deaths due to hemorrhagic shock, 10 due to traumatic brain injury, 6 due to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), and 2 due to pulmonary infection. The average fracture healing time averaged 3.8-18 months [(11.5±4.2)months], with 89.49% of the patients having bone union within 12 months after surgery, 8.93% having bone union within 18 months after surgery, and 1.58% undergoing reoperation. For the patients with internal fixation failure and nonunion, the average healing time was extended to (10.2±2.2)months and (13.7±3.3)months respectively. At the last follow-up, the excellent and good rates of Constant-Murley shoulder score, Mayo elbow score, Gartland-Werley wrist score, Harris hip score, HSS knee score, and AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score were 83.93%, 90.24%, 94.12%, 85.57%, 88.46%, and 92.31% respectively, with an overall excellent and good rate of 89.11%. At 6 months after surgery, the SF-36 scores of all the patients in the eight dimensions,including the physical functioning, physical role, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, emotional role, and mental health were (74.4±8.6)points, (44.7±14.4)points, (77.4±10.9)points, (68.4±18.2)points, (72.5±16.0)points, (76.8±8.7)points, (49.9±17.6)points, and (72.8±17.9)points, significantly improved compared with those before operation [(63.4±12.7)points, (30.9±17.4)points, (56.4±18.0)points, (55.4±24.7)points, (53.5±21.0)points, (55.8±24.3)points, (36.9±24.0)points, (58.8±21.6)points] ( P<0.01). Complications of different degrees occurred in 214 patients (16.89%), including lung infections in 118 patients (9.31%), lower extremity deep vein thrombosis in 50(3.95%), pressure injuries in 26(2.05%), internal fixation failure in 12(0.95%), and nonunion in 8(0.63%). Conclusions:The trinity strategy provides whole-process management, personalized treatment, and overall rehabilitation for multiple orthopedic trauma. It can decrease mortality, shorten fracture healing time, improve joint function and quality of life, and reduce the incidence of complications.

Objective:To investigate the value of soluble interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor (sIL-6R) level in predicting ultrafiltration insufficiency in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients.Methods:It was a prospective cohort study. The patients who received continuous ambulatory PD and regular follow-up between November 2016 and July 2018 in the PD Center of Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University were enrolled. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine dialysate sIL-6R and its appearance rate (AR) was calculated. Patients were divided into high sIL-6R AR group and low sIL-6R AR group according to median value of sIL-6R AR and prospectively followed up until death, PD cessation, or the end of the study (December 31, 2022). Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the related factors of sIL-6R AR. Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used to compare the survival rate difference of ultrafiltration insufficiency between high sIL-6R AR group and low sIL-6R AR group. Multivariate Cox regression and multivariate competing risk models were used to assess the risk factors associated with occurrence of ultrafiltration insufficiency.Results:A total of 198 PD patients were enrolled, including 115 (58.1%) males, with age of (54.9±13.7) years old and PD duration of 22.5 (6.6, 65.0) months. The sIL-6R AR of the cohort was 2 094.7 (1 672.4, 2 920.9) pg/min. Compared with low sIL-6R AR（<2 094.7 pg/min）group, high sIL-6R AR（>2 094.7 pg/min）group had older age ( t=-3.269, P=0.001), higher body mass index ( t=-3.248, P=0.001), proportion of combined diabetes mellitus ( χ2=8.890, P=0.003), 24 h glucose exposure ( Z=-2.257, P=0.024), 24 h ultrafiltration capacity ( Z=-2.515, P=0.012), 4 h dialysate creatinine to serum creatinine ratio ( t=-2.609, P=0.010), mass transfer area coefficient of creatinine ( Z=-2.308, P=0.021), IL-6 AR ( Z=-3.533, P<0.001) and solute glycoprotein 130 AR ( Z=-8.670, P<0.001), and lower serum albumin ( t=2.595, P=0.010) and residual renal function ( t=2.133, P=0.033). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that body mass index ( β=0.194, P=0.005), serum albumin ( β=-0.215, P=0.002) and dialysate lg[IL-6 AR] ( β=0.197, P=0.011) were independently correlated with sIL-6R AR. By the end of the study, 57 (28.8%) patients developed ultrafiltration insufficiency. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that high sIL-6R AR group had a significantly inferior ultrafiltration insufficiency-free survival rate than that in low sIL-6R AR group (log-rank χ 2=5.375, P=0.020). Multivariate Cox regression analysis and multivariate competing risk models showed that high dialysate sIL-6R AR (>2 094.7 pg/min) was an independent influencing factor of ultrafiltration insufficiency ( HR=2.286 , 95% CI 1.254-4.165 , P=0.007 ; SHR=2.074, 95% CI 1.124-3.828, P=0.020) in PD patients. Conclusions:Dialysate sIL-6R level was associated with body mass index, serum albumin and dialysate IL-6 level. Dialysate sIL-6R may be a predictive factor of ultrafiltration insufficiency in PD patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of lidocaine on the chemotherapy sensitivity of gastric cancer cells by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin axis. Methods Human gastric cancer cells SGC-7901 in logarithmic growth phase were inoculated into 96-well plates and treated with different concentrations of lidocaine (0, 10, 50, 100, 150, 200 μmol/L) for 24 h. The cell viability at different concentrations was compared. The SGC-7901 cells in logarithmic growth phase were divided into control group, cisplatin group, low concentration lidocaine group (Lido-L group), medium concentration lidocaine group (Lido-M group), high concentration lidocaine group (Lido-H group), high concentration lidocaine + Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway activator SKL2001 group (Lido-H+SKL2001 group). The cell proliferation, invasion, and migration abilities of each group were compared by 5-acetylidene-2'deoxyuracil nucleoside (EdU) cell proliferation detection, Transwell assay, and scratch healing experiment. The apoptosis of each group was detected by TUNEL assay. The expressions of apoptosis, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and Wnt/β-catenin pathway-related proteins in each group were detected. Results Compared with 0 μmol/L lidocaine, the cell viability of SGC-7901 cells treated with 50, 100, 150, and 200 μmol/L lidocaine was reduced (P < 0.05). Compared with the control group, the EdU positive rate, the number of cell invasion, scratch healing rate, and expressions of vimentin, N-cadherin, B-cell lymphoma-associated protein-2 (Bcl-2), cyclin D1, scattered protein 2 (DVL2), Wnt family member 3a (Wnt3a), β-catenin (β-catenin) were reduced in the cisplatin group, while the cell apoptosis rate was increased, the expressions of E-cadherin, B-cell lymphoma-2-associated X protein (Bax), Cleaved-caspase-3 were increased, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Compared with the cisplatin group, the EdU positive rate, the number of cell invasion, scratch healing rate, and expressions of vimentin, N-cadherin, Bcl-2, cyclin Dl, DVL2, Wnt3a, β-catenin were gradually reduced in the Lido-L group, Lido-M group, and Lido-H group, while the cell apoptosis rate, the expressions of E-cadherin, B-cell lymphoma-2-associated X protein (Bax), Cleaved-caspase-3 were increased (P < 0.05). Compared with the Lido-H group, the EdU positive rate, the number of cell invasion, scratch healing rate, and expressions of vimentin, N-cadherin, Bcl-2, cyclin Dl, DVL2, Wnt3a, β-catenin were increased in the Lido-H+SKL2001 group, while the cell apoptosis rate and expressions of E-cadherin, Bax, Cleaved-caspase-3 were reduced, the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Lidocaine may enhance the chemotherapy sensitivity of gastric cancer cells by inhibiting the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin axis.

Objective:To explore the association between dietary patterns and the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM), so as to provide insights for the prevention and management of T2DM.Methods:Participants were recruited from the " The Tianjin Chronic Inflammation and Health Cohort Study(TCLSIH)" cohort study from 2013 to 2018, who had completed the modified semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire(FFQ) and blood glucose testing( n=26 425), free of cardiovascular disease, cancer, or diabetes at baseline. The relevant information collected includes food frequency, blood glucose concentration, and other confounding factors. In this study, the correlation between dietary patterns and T2DM was tested using Cox proportional risk regression model, and the gender stratification analysis and body mass index stratification analysis of different gender groups were carried out. All statistical analysis was performed using SAS 9.3 software. Results:The age of all participants was (41.0±11.5)years, and the cumulative incidence was 3.84% for T2DM. The cumulative incidence of T2DM in male population was 5.29%, while that in female population was 2.16%. There were significant differences in the incidence of T2DM among different genders( P <0.001). The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios( HR) and corresponding 95% CI of T2DM across the plant-based dietary pattern score were 1.09(95% CI 0.91-1.31), 0.80(95% CI 0.66-0.97), and 0.76(95% CI 0.62-0.94; Ptrend =0.010). Moreover, no statistically significant differences were observed between animal and traditional northern Chinese diets with the incidence of T2DM. Conclusions:The plant-based dietary patterns were associated with substantially lower risk of developing T2DM, and there were no significant association between animal and traditional northern Chinese dietary patterns with T2DM. Plant-based dietary patterns characterized by a variety of fruit, leeks, onions, seaweed may be beneficial to the prevention and control of T2DM.

OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to estimate the benchmark dose (BMD) of coke oven emissions (COEs) exposure based on mitochondrial damage with the mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNAcn) as a biomarker. METHODS: A total of 782 subjects were recruited, including 238 controls and 544 exposed workers. The mtDNAcn of peripheral leukocytes was detected through the real-time fluorescence-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Three BMD approaches were used to calculate the BMD of COEs exposure based on the mitochondrial damage and its 95% confidence lower limit (BMDL). RESULTS: The mtDNAcn of the exposure group was lower than that of the control group (0.60 ± 0.29 vs. 1.03 ± 0.31; P < 0.001). A dose-response relationship was shown between the mtDNAcn damage and COEs. Using the Benchmark Dose Software, the occupational exposure limits (OELs) for COEs exposure in males was 0.00190 mg/m ³. The OELs for COEs exposure using the BBMD were 0.00170 mg/m ³ for the total population, 0.00158 mg/m ³ for males, and 0.00174 mg/m ³ for females. In possible risk obtained from animal studies (PROAST), the OELs of the total population, males, and females were 0.00184, 0.00178, and 0.00192 mg/m ³, respectively. CONCLUSION Based on our conservative estimate, the BMDL of mitochondrial damage caused by COEs is 0.002 mg/m ³. This value will provide a benchmark for determining possible OELs.

Periarticular fracture of the shoulder is a common type of fractures in the elderly. Postoperative adverse events such as internal fixation failure, humeral head ischemic necrosis and upper limb dysfunction occur frequently, which seriously endangers the exercise and health of the elderly. Compared with the fracture with normal bone mass, the osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder is complicated with slow healing and poor rehabilitation, so the clinical management becomes more difficult. At present, there is no targeted guideline or consensus for this type of fracture in China. In such context, experts from Youth Osteoporosis Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatrics Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Osteoporosis Group of Youth Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Chinese Integrative Medicine developed the Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder in the elderly ( version 2023). Nine recommendations were put forward from the aspects of diagnosis, treatment strategies and rehabilitation of osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder, hoping to promote the standardized, systematic and personalized diagnosis and treatment concept and improve functional outcomes and quality of life in elderly patients with osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder.
