Objective To observe the expression and trends of tight junction proteins Occludin and zonula occlu-den-1(ZO-1)in blood-brain barrier(BBB)of rats with traumatic brain injury(TBI),and to explore the interven-tion effect of cannabidiol(CBD)on the BBB.Methods The TBI model of rat was prepared by modified"Feeney free fall method"and randomly divided into three groups:the sham-operated group(Sham group),the model group(TBI+vehicle group)and the CBD intervention group(TBI+CBD group),with 24 rats in each group.Each group was subdivided into six time points:8 h,1,2,3,5 and 7 d after injury.The expression of Occludin and ZO-1,which are closely related to the permeability of BBB,was detected by immunohistochemistry,immuno-fluorescence staining and Western blot at different points.The permeability of BBB was detected by sodium fluores-cein assay.Results The results of immunohistochemistry showed that compared with Sham group,the positive ex-pression of Occludin and ZO-1 decreased with time after brain trauma(P<0.05),and both reached the lowest level at 2 d.The expression levels of Occludin and ZO-1 were up-regulated after 1 d of CBD intervention(P<0.05).Immunofluorescence staining showed a similar trend to Western blot results,with Occludin and ZO-1 fluo-rescence expression intensity and protein expression reduced after TBI compared with Sham group(P<0.05).And the expression levels of Occludin and ZO-1 were up-regulated after 2 d of CBD intervention(P<0.05).The results of fluorescein sodium experiment showed that the BBB integrity of brain tissue was destroyed after TBI,and the permeability increased after TBI(P<0.01).The permeability of BBB decreased after CBD intervention(P<0.05).Conclusion The expression of tight junction proteins Occludin and ZO-1 decreases after TBI,and the permeability of BBB is disrupted,and CBD intervention reverses the disruption of the BBB by TBI.

Objective To investigate testicular damage in traumatic brain injury(TBI)rats and to analyze the in-terventional effects of cannabidiol(CBD)on TBI-induced testicular damage.Methods 18 Sprague Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into three groups:the sham operation group(Sham group),model group(TBI group)and treatment group(TBI+CBD group).HE staining was used to observe the testicular histopathological changes in the rat testis.ELISA was used to detect testosterone level in rat serum.TUNEL staining was utilized to observe apoptosis,while immunofluorescence staining,Western blot and RT-qPCR were employed to evaluate Bax,Bcl-2,Cleaved Caspase-3 and TNF-α protein and mRNA expression.Results HE staining showed pathological changes in the testes of TBI rats compared with those in the Sham group.ELISA assay showed a decrease in testosterone levels in the TBI group compared to the Sham group,but there was no significant difference(P＞0.05).Immunofluores-cence results showed that the intensity of Bax fluorescence expression increased in the TBI group compared with the Sham group(P＜0.01),whereas the intensity of Bax fluorescence decreased and the intensity of Bcl-2 fluorescence increased in the rats after the CBD intervention(P＜0.01).Western Blot results showed that CBD treatment in rats decreased the protein levels of testicular apoptosis-related proteins(Bax and Cleaved Caspase-3,all P＜0.05)and inflammation-related proteins(TNF-α,P＜0.01),and increased the protein level of the anti-apoptotic protein,Bcl-2(P＜0.05).The trend of RT-qPCR results was similar,with mRNA expression of Bax(P＜0.05)and TNF-α(P＜0.01)decreased and mRNA expression of Bcl-2 increased after CBD intervention compared with the TBI group(P＜0.05).Conclusion TBI induces testis injury,and CBD treatment effectively repairs apoptosis and in-flammatory in testicular tissue of TBI rats.

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 investigate the efficacies of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation(PFNA)internal fixation in traction bed supine position and non-traction bed lateral position in the treatment of elderly unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures.Methods The clinical data of patients with unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures treated with PFNA internal fixation in our hospital were retrospec-tively analyzed,41 patients received treatment in traction bed supine position were included in the supine position group,and 55 patients treated received treatment in non-traction bed lateral position were included in the lateral position group.The perioperative related indicators,surgical reduction,hip Harris score,and incidence of complications in the two groups were analyzed.Results The operation time and incision length of patients in the lateral position group were shorter than those in the supine position group,and the intraoperative blood loss and fluoroscopy times were less than those in the supine position group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the anesthesia mode,blood transfusion or hospital stay of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in neck-shaft angle,tip-apex distance or hip Harris score of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion PFNA internal fixation in traction bed supine position and non-traction bed lateral position have the same effect in the treatment of elderly unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures,while the non-traction bed lateral position for treatment has more advantages in shortening operation time,decreasing intraoperative blood loss,and reducing radiation exposure.

The breakage pattern of unit particles during the production of oral solid dosage forms (OSD) is closely related to the quality of intermediate or final products. To accurately characterize the particles and study the evolution law of particle breakage, the Bonding model of the discrete element method (DEM) was used to investigate the breakage patterns of model parameters, particle shape and process conditions (loading mode and loading rate) on the dynamic breakage, force-time curve, breakage rate, maximum breakage size ratio and fracture strength of particles. The results showed that the particle breakage force was positively correlated with normal strength and bonded disk scale, negatively correlated with normal stiffness per unit area and tangential stiffness per unit area, and weakly correlated with tangential strength. The particle breakage rate was negatively correlated with the aspect ratio of the particles, and the maximum breakage size ratio was positively correlated with the aspect ratio of the particles; among the three loading modes, the breakage rate of compression breakage model was the largest, the breakage rate of shear breakage model was the second largest, and the breakage rate of wear breakage model was the smallest; the maximum breakage size ratio was positively correlated with the loading rate, the loading mode and the loading rate had no mutual influence on particle breakage rate, but had mutual influence on the maximum breakage size ratio. The research results will provide a theoretical basis for the shift of OSD from batch manufacturing to advanced manufacturing.

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.
