Objective To observe the clinical effect and safety of camrelizumab combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel and cisplatin in preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy for patients with stage Ⅲa non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods Patients with stage Ⅲ a NSCLC were divided into the treatment group and the control group.The control group was treated with intravenous infusion of 130 mg·m-2 of paclitaxel injection on day 1 and day 8,and intravenous infusion of 75 mg·m-2 of cisplatin injection on day 1.In addition to the treatment of control group,the treatment group was treated with intravenous infusion of 200 mg of camrelizumab injection on day 1.Both groups were given 2 cycles of treatment.Clinical efficacy,tumor markers,tumor metastasis markers,T lymphocyte subsets,and safety were compared between the two groups.Results After treatment,the objective remission rate(ORR)of the treatment group and the control group was 69.64％(39 cases/56 cases)and 38.98％(23 cases/59 cases),respectively;the disease control rate(DCR)was 89.29％(50 cases/56 cases)and 72.88％(43 cases/59 cases),respectively;cytokeratin-19-fragment(Cyfra21-1)levels were(3.47±0.86)and(4.01±1.24)ng·mL-1;carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)levels were(4.55±0.93)and(5.26±1.04)ng·mL-1;neuron-specific enolase(NSE)levels were(16.38±2.51)and(19.02±2.95)ng·mL-1;basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF)levels were(15.82±2.34)and(18.64±2.59)μg·L-1;carbohydrate antigen 15-3(CA15-3)levels were(22.54±3.10)and(29.41±3.82)ng·mL-1;CD4+/CD8+were 1.42±0.51 and 1.30±0.32.The above indexes were significantly different between the control group and the treatment group(all P＜0.05).The adverse drug reactions in the treatment group and the control group were mainly neutropenia,thrombocytopenia,alopecia,gastrointestinal reaction and radiation pneumonia.There were no significant difference in the incidence of adverse drug reactions between the two groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Camrelizumab combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel and cisplatin is effective in the treatment of patients with stage Ⅲa NSCLC.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of mucin 1 (MUC1) on the proliferation and apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and its regulatory mechanism. MethodsThe 60 NPC and paired para-cancer normal tissues were collected from October 2020 to July 2021 in Quanzhou First Hospital. The expression of MUC1 was measured by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) in the patients with PNC. The 5-8F and HNE1 cells were transfected with siRNA control (si-control) or siRNA targeting MUC1 (si-MUC1). Cell proliferation was analyzed by cell counting kit-8 and colony formation assay, and apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry analysis in the 5-8F and HNE1 cells. The qPCR and ELISA were executed to analyze the levels of TNF-α and IL-6. Western blot was performed to measure the expression of MUC1, NF-кB and apoptosis-related proteins (Bax and Bcl-2). ResultsThe expression of MUC1 was up-regulated in the NPC tissues, and NPC patients with the high MUC1 expression were inclined to EBV infection, growth and metastasis of NPC. Loss of MUC1 restrained malignant features, including the proliferation and apoptosis, downregulated the expression of p-IкB、p-P65 and Bcl-2 and upregulated the expression of Bax in the NPC cells. ConclusionDownregulation of MUC1 restrained biological characteristics of malignancy, including cell proliferation and apoptosis, by inactivating NF-κB signaling pathway in NPC.

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 retrospectively analyze the diagnostic value of thrombin-antithrombin complex(TAT),thrombomodulin(TM),and tissue plasminogen activator-inhibitor complex(t-PAIC)in severe cases of corona virus disease 2019(COVID-19).Methods A cohort of 79 patients clinically diagnosed with COVID-19 was retrospectively assembled and categorized into two groups based on disease severity:non-severe(n=51)and severe(n=28).In this study the differences of coagulation function and inflamma-tory marker levels between the two groups were compared.The correlations of TAT,TM and t-PAIC with other biomarkers were investi-gated.The diagnostic values of all the markers for severe COVID-19 were assessed.Results The patients of severe COVID-19 exhibi-ted significantly higher levels of TAT,TM,and t-PAIC compared to those of non-severe group(P＜0.001).The levels of TAT,TM and t-PAIC showed notable positive correlation with other biomarkers.TAT demonstrated the strongest positive correlation with the level of D-dimer(r=0.786,P＜0.001).Binary logistic regression analysis identified TAT(OR=1.346,P＜0.05)and t-PAIC(OR=1.128,P＜0.05)were independent risk factors in term of severe COVID-19.The combined ROC curve for TAT,TM and t-PAIC revealed high diagnostic efficacy in severe cases with the area under the curve(AUCROC)were 0.918,and the sensitivity and specificity were of 75％and 94.1％,respectively.Conclusion The results of combined measurement of TAT,TM and t-PAIC effectively demonstrates its diagnostic value in identifying severity and stratification of COVID-19 cases and may have important clinical significance for assessment of the severity and prediction of the prognosis.

Bibliometric and scientific knowledge graph methods were used to analyze the research status and hot spots of acupuncture-moxibustion in treatment of myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) and explore its development trend. The articles of both Chinese and English versions relevant to MPS treated by acupuncture-moxibustion were searched in CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, SinoMed and WOS from the database inception to March 20, 2023. Using Excel2016, CiteSpace6.2.R2 and VOSviewer1.6.18, the visual analysis was conducted by means of the cooperative network, keyword co-occurrence, keyword timeline, keyword emergence, etc. From Chinese databases and WOS database, 910 Chinese articles and 300 English articles were included, respectively. The annual publication volume showed an overall rising trend. Literature output of English articles was concentrated in Spain, China, and the United States, of which, there was less cross-regional cooperation. In the keyword analysis, regarding acupuncture-moxibustion therapy, Chinese articles focused on "acupuncture", "electroacupuncture" and "acupotomy"; while, "dry needling" and "injection" were dominated for English one. Clinical study was the current hot spot in Chinese databases, in comparison, the randomized controlled double-blind clinical trial was predominant in WOS. Both Chinese and English articles were limited in the report of mechanism research. The cooperation among research teams should be strengthened to conduct comparative research, dose-effect research and effect mechanism research with different methods of acupuncture-moxibustion involved so that the evidences can be provided for deeper exploration.

Objective:To investigate the effect of radiofrequency ablation on infants with incessant ventricular tachycardia(IIVT) and heart failure.Methods:Twenty-eight infants with IIVT combined with heart failure admitted to Beijing Children′s Hospital of Capital Medical University from January 2006 to December 2021 were selected, including 16 boys and 12 girls; 26 cases were treated with radiofrequency ablation.The characteristics of IIVT and heart failure and the results of radiofrequency ablation were analyzed.Results:The average age of the first diagnosis of 28 infants was 13.9 months old, and all of them had heart failure.Eleven infants had cardiogenic shock, three infants had cardiogenic syncope, two infants had respiratory failure for respiratory support, and one infant died.Color Doppler echocardiography showed that the left ventricular diameter increased and/or left ventricular systolic function decreased.Anti-heart failure treatment was effective in 27 cases(96.4%), electrical cardioversion in five cases, effective in three cases, and anti-arrhythmic drugs were effective in 17 cases(60.7%). Twenty-six cases(92.9%, 26/28) were treated with radiofrequency ablation, with immediate success in 23 cases(88.5%, 23/26) and effective in three cases(11.5%, 3/26). During the follow-up period for 3 to 36 months, cardiac function returned to normal in 25 cases(96.2%, 25/26) and recurred in three cases(11.5%, 3/26 cases), which were cured after radiofrequency ablation again.Temporary complications of atrioventricular block occurred in one case(3.8%, 1/26). In 26 cases of surgical children, 15 cases were measured by X-ray two-dimensional mapping and 11 cases were measured by three-dimensional mapping.The cumulative X-ray exposure was 87.0(51.5, 151.5) mGy and 1.2(0, 15.9) mGy, respectively, and the dose area product was 39.8(19.2, 427.8) μGy/m 2 and 2.8(0, 44.3) μGy/m 2.The cumulative X ray exposure and the dose area product were significantly reduced under the three-dimensional mapping method( P<0.001). Conclusion:The infants with IIVT combined with heart failure are prone to serious complications, and the effects of cardioversion and anti-arrhythmic drugs are limited.Radiofrequency ablation should be performed as soon as possible after heart failure is controlled.The application of three-dimensional mapping technology in surgery can significantly reduce ionizing radiation.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of neutrophil CD64 index (nCD64) in disseminated nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infection.Methods:Thirty-six patients with NTM infection from January 2020 to June 2021 in Huashan Hospital, Fudan University were included. Patients were classified into groups of disseminated infection and focal infection according to their medical history and discharge diagnosis. The expressions of nCD64 in patients with focal infection and disseminated infection before treatment were collected and analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney U test, and the diagnostic value of nCD64 for disseminated NTM infection was analyzed using the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve). Results:Among the 36 patients with NTM infection, 18 cases were focal infection (due to the low white blood cell count of the patient with myelodysplastic syndrome, the detection results were biased, which were excluded from the subsequent analysis) and 18 cases were disseminated infection. The expression of nCD64 in focal infection was 0.72(0.50, 1.55), and that in disseminated infection was 13.63(6.77, 32.31). The difference was statistically significant ( U=15.50, P<0.001). Using focal infection as a control, the area under the ROC curve for the operational characteristics of the subjects was 0.949 3 for disseminated NTM infection. The diagnostic cut-off value of nCD64 was 3.06, with the sensitivity and specificity of the disseminated NTM infection were 88.89% and 100.00%, respectively. Conclusions:In patients with NTM infection before effective treatment, the diagnostic cut-off value of nCD64 of 3.06 has high sensitivity and specificity, which is useful for the aided diagnosis of disseminated NTM infection.
