Objective To explore the antimicrobial resistance of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)isolated from blood and the related risk factors for infection in patients.Methods Clinical data of 383 KP-infected patients from whose blood Klebsiella pneumoniae(KP)were isolated during hospitalization period in a hos-pital from January 2018 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into CRKP group(n=114)and non-CRKP group(n=269)based on antimicrobial resistance.According to the prognosis,114 patients in the CRKP group were subdivided into the death group(n=30)and the survival group(n=84).General informa-tion,underlying diseases,antimicrobial use,and infection outcomes of two groups of patients were compared,and risk factors for infection and death after infection were analyzed.Results The resistance rates of KP to tigecycline and compound sulfamethoxazole showed upward trends,with statistically significant differences(both P=0.008).The CRKP group had higher resistance rates to amikacin,aztreonam,compound sulfamethoxazole,ciprofloxacin,cefepime,cefoperazone/sulbactam,piperacillin/tazobactam,tigecycline,ceftazidime,tobramycin,and levofloxacin,as well as higher in-hospital mortality than the non-CRKP group,with statistically significant differences(all P＜0.05).Acute pancreatitis prior to infection(OR=16.564,P＜0.001),hypoalbuminemia(OR=8.588,P＜0.001),stay in in-tensive care unit prior to infection(OR=2.733,P=0.017),blood transfusion(OR=3.968,P=0.001),broncho-scopy(OR=5.194,P=0.014),surgery within 30 days prior to infection(OR=2.603,P=0.010),and treatment with carbapenems(OR=2.663,P=0.011)were independent risk factors for the development of CRKP blood-stream infection(BSI).Cardiac insufficiency before infection(OR=11.094,P=0.001),combined with pulmonary infection(OR=20.801,P=0.010),septic shock(OR=9.783,P=0.002),disturbance of consciousness(OR=11.648,P=0.001),and receiving glucocorticoid treatment(OR=5.333,P=0.018)were independent risk factors for mortality in patients with CRKP BSI.Conclusion The resistance rate of KP from BSI to tigecycline and com-pound sulfamethoxazole presents upward trend.Underlying diseases,invasive procedures,and carbapenem treat-ment are closely related to CRKP BSI.Cardiac insufficiency,pulmonary infection,septic shock,disturbance of con-sciousness,and glucocorticoid treatment can lead to death of patients with CRKP BSI.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of two kinds of biliary stent placement in the treatment of high bile duct carcinoma.Methods the clinical data of 136 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent biliary stent implantation in Nanyang Central Hospital from January 2021 to September 2023 were analyzed retrospectively.According to the mode of biliary stent placement,the patients were divided into ERCP group(n=86)and transoral cholangiopancreatoscopy group(n=50).In this study,SPSS26.0 was used for analysis.The age,related test indexes,days of hospitalization,postoperative complications,incidence of liver failure,remission rate of jaundice,stent material and patency rate were observed in the two groups.Results all patients completed the operation successfully.The two groups compared the incidence of postoperative liver failure,postoperative remission rate of jaundice,different material stents,postoperative complications and short-term patency rate,there was no significant statistical significance(P＞0.05).There were significant differences in postoperative complications between the two groups(t=12.02,P＜0.05).Compared with postoperative biliary tract infection and postoperative bleeding,the postoperative biliary tract infection and postoperative bleeding in ERCP group were 26.7％and 11.6％respectively,which were significantly higher than those in transoral cholangiopancreatoscopy group 10.0％and 2.0％(x2=5.42,3.94;P＜0.05).Conclusion of the mean hospitalization days between the two patient groups,Transoral cholangioscopy(10.78±2.17)d＜ERCP(12.91±2.96)d.Compared with the 7th day after operation,the liver function of the two groups was significantly improved and the related test indexes decreased significantly.There was no significant difference in postoperative complications and short-term patency rate between plastic stent and metal stent(P＞0.05).When the patency time was more than 6 months,the patency rate of metal stent was significantly higher than that of plastic stent(P＜0.05).Conclusion The placement of bile duct stent by ERCP and Oral choledochoscopy is effective in relieving clinical symptoms of high cholangiocarcinoma and can improve the quality of life of patients.Transoral cholangiopancreatoscopy has low complication rate,faster recovery,greater advantage,but higher cost;plastic stents are beneficial for patients with short expected survival time,and metal stents are more suitable for patients with long expected survival time.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of metal supported multi-sided versus ordinary ultra-fine drainage tube in the uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lower pulmonary lobectomy. Methods From January 2021 to June 2022, the clinical data of patients who underwent uniportal VATS lower lobectomy in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different types of ultra-fine drainage tubes used in the surgery, the patients were divided into an experimental group (using multi-sided hole 10F ultra-fine drainage tubes with metal support) and a control group (using ordinary 12F ultra-fine drainage tubes). The clinical data of the two groups were compared. Results A total of 190 patients were enrolled, including 108 males and 82 females. There were 90 patients in the experimental group aged 56.60±10.14 years; and 100 patients in the control group aged 57.07±11.04 years. The incidences of postoperative lung infection and pleural effusion in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The postoperative visual analogue scale score, the need to adjust the chest drainage tube after the surgery, the need for chest puncture after the surgery, the time of postoperative chest tube removal, and the hospitalization cost were statistically different (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in the length of postoperative hospital stay or the incidences of postoperative lung leakage, arrhythmia, and atelectasis complications (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with the ordinary ultra-fine drainage tubes, multi-sided hole ultra-fine drainage tubes with metal support can reduce the incidences of lung infection and pleural effusion complications after the uniportal VATS lower lobectomy, reduce the pain and economic burden, which can be applied in the uniportal VATS lower lobectomy.
