Objective:To compare the phylotypes of Staphylococcus epidermidis (SE) in skin lesions of acne vulgaris patients versus hair follicles of healthy people, and to analyze their roles in the pathogenesis of acne vulgaris. Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted from August 2022 to August 2023. Patients with moderate acne vulgaris, as well as healthy volunteers, were enrolled from the Department of Dermatology, Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiaotong University. SE strains were isolated from the pustules of acne vulgaris patients and hair follicles of healthy volunteers. Housekeeping genes were amplified by PCR. Sequencing and multilocus sequence typing were performed to compare the phylotypes and genetic relationships of strains from different sources.Results:The acne group consisted of 28 patients (10 males and 18 females) with the age being 22.6 ± 2.6 years, while the healthy group consisted of 19 volunteers (7 males and 12 females) with the age being 22.4 ± 0.96 years. There were no significant differences in age or gender ratio between the two groups (both P > 0.05). The positive rates of SE in the samples of the acne group and the healthy group were 60.71% (17/28) and 73.68% (14/19), respectively, with no significant difference between the two groups ( P = 0.53). The 144 SE strains from the healthy group could be divided into 10 sequence types (STs), and the most common ST was ST35 (8 cases), followed by ST73 (4 cases), ST193 (2 cases), ST59 (2 cases) and ST540 (2 cases) ; 190 SE strains from the acne group could be divided into 16 STs, and the most common STs were ST59 (6 cases) and ST73 (6 cases), followed by ST802 (3 cases), ST130 (3 cases) and ST35 (2 cases). The positive rate of ST35 was significantly lower in the acne group than in the healthy group ( P = 0.018), while there were no significant differences in the positive rates of other STs between the two groups (all P > 0.05). The evolutionary tree analysis showed that the SE strains were mainly distributed in 3 branches. Most of the SE strains from the healthy group belonged to clade A. The proportion of SE strains in clade A ( M[ Q]) was significantly lower in the acne group (25% [85%]) than in the healthy group (100% [33.33%], P = 0.025), while the proportion of SE strains in clade B was significantly higher in the acne group (14.29% [89.17%]) than in the healthy group (0[0], U = 62, P = 0.010), and there was no significant difference in the proportion of SE strains in clade D between the acne group (0 [57.14%]) and healthy group (0[4.17%], P = 0.420) . Conclusion:The phylotypes of SE strains differed between acne vulgaris patients and healthy controls, possibly associated with the occurrence and development of acne vulgaris.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with Vp4 portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT).Methods:Data of 15 patients undergoing TIPS for HCC with Vp4 PVTT and portal hypertension (PTN) in Peking University First Hospital from July 2018 to February 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including 14 males and 1 female, aged (61.5±11.1) years old, ranging from 40 to 78 years old. The success rate of TIPS, portal pressure gradient (PPG) before and after procedure, perioperative adverse effects and complications were recorded. The survival status of patients was followed up by telephone review after surgery. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis.Results:The procedure of TIPS was performed uneventfully in all patients, with a technical success rate of 100% (15/15). PPG before and after TIPS were (31.73±5.48) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) and (17.60±3.66) mmHg, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). No perioperative death, hepatic artery or bile duct injury, acute liver failure or other major complications occurred. Compared with the preoperative status, the performance status scores [0(0, 0) vs. 3(3, 3)] and Child-Pugh scores [6(5, 8) vs. 9(8, 10)] were lower in patients one month after TIPS (all P<0.05). The median survival time was 228 d. Kaplan-Meier curves showed that the cumulative survival rates at 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after TIPS were 100%, 64.3%, 32.7% and 8.2%, respectively. Conclusion:TIPS could be safe and effective for HCC with Vp4 PVTT and severe PTN.

ObjectiveTo study the correlations of the characteristics of kidney Yang deficiency syndrome in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) with clinical indicators and to explore the risk factors of kidney Yang deficiency in CKD. MethodThe differentiation of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome classified the 225 CKD patients who met the inclusion criteria into two groups: one group of kidney Yang deficiency syndrome (99 patients) and one group of non-kidney Yang deficiency syndrome (126 patients). The symptoms, tongue manifestation, pulse manifestation, and accompanied symptoms of the kidney Yang deficiency syndrome group were recorded. The syndrome characteristics were summarized by factor analysis and clustering analysis. The levels of hemoglobin, red blood cell count, urinary protein, urinary glucose, creatinine, urea nitrogen and glomerular filtration rate were compared between the kidney Yang deficiency syndrome group, the non-kidney Yang deficiency syndrome group and the normal control group by ANOVA and non-parametric test. The binary logistic regression model was employed to analyze the correlations of lifestyle, body mass index (BMI) with syndrome. ResultThe high-frequency symptoms of CKD patients with kidney Yang deficiency syndrome were waist pain, fear of cold, favor of warm, lethargy, fear of cold at waist and knees, etc. The patients mainly presented deep pulse, thready pulse, or weak pulse, and the tongue with white coating, greasy coating, or thin coating. A total of 13 common factors were obtained, which can be classified into 5 categories. The patients with kidney Yang deficiency syndrome mainly had symptoms in limbs (especially lower limbs), chest, bladder, fleshy exterior, and stomach, with the main manifestations of deficiency-cold, Qi deficiency, fluid retention, and blood stasis. The clustering analysis classified the patients into 11 categories, which reflected that kidney Yang deficiency syndrome mainly presented the symptoms of Qi deficiency, blood stasis, and fluid retention, with fleshy exterior, limbs, spleen, stomach, ears, mind, and bladder involved. The results of clustering analysis and factor analysis were consistent, both of which indicated that the patients were weak with deficiency-cold, accompanied by fluid retention and blood stasis. Frequency analysis also showed that common symptoms mainly included Qi deficiency, fluid retention, cold-dampness, and blood stasis. Compared with the non-kidney Yang deficiency group, the kidney Yang deficiency group showed a large proportion of patients in stage 3-5 CKD, elevated urea nitrogen (P<0.05), decreased glomerular filtration rate, hemoglobin, and red blood cell count (P<0.05), and increased qualitative grade of urine protein. In addition, the results of regression analysis showed that female, little or no exercise, and diet preference were the risk factors for kidney Yang deficiency syndrome in CKD (P<0.05). ConclusionThe disease location and manifestations have correspondence in the CKD patients with kidney Yang deficiency syndrome. The TCM symptoms are correlated with clinical indicators. Hemoglobin, red blood cell count, glomerular filtration rate, urea nitrogen, and urine protein can reflect the connotation of kidney Yang deficiency syndrome in CKD to a certain extent. Additionally, related risk factors in life can affect the occurrence of kidney Yang deficiency syndrome in CKD.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of short-term prognostic factors in very elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods:A total of 2 912 ACS patients admitted to Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from January 1, 2010 to October 31, 2014 and treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled and divided into two groups according to age: very elderly group (≥75 years, 480 cases) and control group (< 75 years, 2 432 cases). The clinical data and coronary artery lesions of the included patients were detected. Major cardiovascular adverse events (MACE) occurred within 30 d after discharge were followed up and recorded. The short-term prognostic factors in very elderly patients with ACS were analyzed by Logistic regression.Results:Compared with control group, the percentage of hypertension, global registry of acute coronary events (GRACE) score, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, the left main lesion ratio and Gensini score in very elderly group were higher, while the percentage of men, number of smoking, hyperlipidemia proportion, red blood cell count, white blood cell count, blood platelet count, albumin, and long term oral administration of aspirin, clopidogrel, statins, angiotensin receptor inhibitor after discharge were lower, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01 or<0.05). During the follow-up period, the all-cause mortality in very elderly group was higher than that in control group: 2.5%(12/480) vs. 0.9% (21/2 432), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Multivariate analysis showed that oral angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor was a protective factor for elderly ACS patients after discharge ( OR = 0.046, 95% CI 0.006 to 0.383, P = 0.004). The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that Gensini score ≥ 87.75 scores was a threshold value for all-cause mortality. The all-cause mortality ratio in high Gensini score (≥ 87.75 scores) group was higher than that in low Gensini score (<87.75 scores) group: 6.6% (9/137) vs. 0.9% (3/343), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Very elderly patients with ACS have their own characteristics from both clinical history and prognostic factors. Patients with Gensini score of ≥ 87.75 scores should be closely observed, and drug treatment during hospitalization should be intensified if necessary. Follow-up should be strengthened for such patients, and oral drug treatment should be continued after discharge.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of human brucellosis in Sichuan Province, and to provide a scientific basis for prevention and control of brucellosis.Methods:Retrospective analysis methods were used to collect the data of reported cases of brucellosis in Sichuan Province from 2018 to 2020 from the "Infectious Disease Reporting Information Management System" in the "China Disease Prevention and Control Information System". The distribution (population, time and region) and case investigation data (epidemiological contact history and clinical manifestations) were analyzed by descriptive epidemiological.Results:A total of 309 cases of brucellosis were reported in Sichuan Province in 2018 - 2020, and no deaths occurred. The annual incidence rate was 0.123/100 000. Among the 309 reported cases of brucellosis, the sex ratio of men to women was 2.4 ∶ 1.0 (218 ∶ 91); the age of onset was mainly 20 - 60 years old, accounting for 79.9% (247/309); the occupation was mainly farmers, accounting for 51.8% (160/309). Brucellosis cases were reported in every month of the year, mainly from March to August, accounting for 72.5% (224/309) of the total number of cases. Cases were reported in 21 cities (autonomous prefectures) in Sichuan Province from 2018 to 2020. The top 5 cities (autonomous prefectures) in terms of cumulative number of cases were Chengdu, Liangshan, Zigong, Neijiang and Luzhou in order, accounting for 60.5% (187/309) of the total number of cases. Among the 309 reported cases of brucellosis, 279 case investigations were completed. Among them, 258 cases had a history of contact with livestock and their products, accounting for 92.5%; all contacted livestock were sheep; the main mode of transmission was direct contact, accounting for 88.5% (247/279); the main routes of transmission were sheep farming (50.2%, 140/279), sheep slaughtering (18.6%, 52/279), selling mutton or cutting sheep products in mutton restaurants (11.1%, 31/279); the main clinical manifestations were fever, fatigue, hyperhidrosis, and muscle and joint pain, accounting for 91.4% (255/279), 89.2% (249/279), 80.3% (224/279) and 65.2% (182/279), respectively.Conclusions:The spread of brucellosis in Sichuan Province is increasing, and spring and summer are the epidemic seasons. Brucellosis cases are most common in sheep farms, and the infection method is mainly direct contact infection; the clinical manifestations are diverse and non-specific. Relevant departments should strengthen the prevention and control of the disease in key populations and regions to control the outbreak of brucellosis.
