Objective To compare the detection rates and antimicrobial resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae(KP)between the intensive care unit of The First People's Hospital of Changzhou(CZFPH-ICU)and the American Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-Ⅳ(MIMIC-Ⅳ),as well as the changes in the antimicrobial resistance rate of KP and detection rate of carbapenem-resistant KP(CRKP)in CZFPH-ICU.Methods Differences in speci-men distribution and antimicrobial resistance rate of KP detected from CZFPH-ICU and MIMIC-Ⅳ from 2017 to 2019,as well as the changing trends of specimen distribution,antimicrobial resistance rate,detection rates of KP and CRKP from different specimen sources in CZFPH-ICU from 2017 to 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Results A total of 2 434 strains of KP were detected in CZFPH-ICU from 2017 to 2019,mainly from sputum specimens.A total of 1 137 strains of KP were detected from MIMIC-Ⅳ database,mainly from urine specimens.Compared with MIMIC-Ⅳ,KP detected from CZFPH-ICU showed higher resistance rate to commonly used antimicrobial agents.A total of 4 874 strains of KP were detected from CZFPH-ICU from 2020 to 2023,mainly from sputum specimens.The detection rates of CRKP from sputum,urine,drainage fluid and bile specimens decreased from 17.77％,20.15％,24.22％and 24.07％in 2017-2019 to 12.99％,13.56％,13.63％and 8.00％in 2020-2023,respectively(all P＜0.05).The changing trend of resistance rate of KP isolated from CZFPH-ICU from 2017 to 2023 to commonly used antimicrobial agents such as piperacillin/tazobactam,imipenem,and meropenem increased in 2017-2019,decreased in 2020-2022,and slightly increased in 2023.In 2013,the resistance rates of KP isolated from CZFPH-ICU to ceftazidime/avibactam,polycolistin B and tigacycline were 21.28％,10.22％and 7.03％,respectively.Conclusion In recent 7 years,resistance rate of KP from CZFPH-ICU showed a slow decline trend,but it was still higher than that in foreign MIMIC-Ⅳ database.Hospitals should strengthen various infection prevention and control measures to ef-fectively control KP resistance and infection.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the association between different growth patterns and metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents aged 7 to 17 years, and to provide suggestions for the prevention and control of metabolic syndrome in Chinese children and adolescents. METHODS: Data were collected from the research project "Development and Application of Technology and Related Standards for Prevention and Control of Major Diseases among Students" of public health industry in 2012. This project is a cross-sectional study design. A total of 65 347 students from 93 primary and secondary schools in 7 provinces including Guangdong were selected by stratified cluster random sampling method. Given the budget, 25% of the students were randomly selected to collect blood samples. In this study, 10 176 primary and middle school students aged 7 to 17 years with complete physical measurements and blood biochemical indicators were selected as research objects. Chi-square test was used to compare the distribution differences of growth patterns under different demographic characteristics. Birth weight, waist circumference and blood biochemical indexes were expressed in the form of mean ± standard deviation, and the differences among different groups were compared by variance analysis. Binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between different growth patterns and metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents aged 7 to 17 years. RESULTS: The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents was 6.56%, 7.18% in boys and 5.97% in girls. The risk of metabolic syndrome was higher in the catch-down growth group than in the normal growth group (OR=1.417, 95%CI: 1.19-1.69), and lower in the catch-up growth group(OR=0.66, 95%CI: 0.53-0.82). After adjusting for gender, age and so on, the risk of developing metabolic syndrome in the catch-down growth group was higher than that in the normal growth group (OR=1.25, 95%CI: 1.02-1.52), but there was no significant difference between the catch-up growth group and the normal growth group (OR=0.79, 95%CI: 0.62-1.01). Stratified analysis showed that the association between different growth patterns and metabolic syndrome was statistically significant in the 7-12 years group, urban population, and Han Chinese student population. CONCLUSION There is a correlation between different growth patterns and metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents. The risk of developing metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents with catch-down growth is higher than that in the normal growth group, which suggests that attention should be paid to the growth and development of children and adolescents, timely correction of delayed growth and prevention of adverse health outcomes.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the status of depression and social anxiety in children and adolescents, and to analyze the association between body fat distribution and depression, social anxiety in children and adolescents. METHODS: A total of 1 412 children aged 7 to 18 years in Beijing were included by stratified cluster random sampling method. Body fat distribution, including total body fat percentage (total BF%), Android BF%, Gynoid BF% and Android-to-Gynoid fat ratio (AOI), were obtained by dual-energy X-ray absorption method. Depression and social anxiety were evaluated by Children Depression Inventory and Social Anxiety Scale for Children. Multivariate linear regression and restricted cubic spline analysis were used to estimate the linear and non-linear correlation between body fat distribution and depression and social anxiety. RESULTS: 13.1% and 31.1% of the children and adolescents had depressive symptoms and social anxiety symptoms respectively, and the detection rate of depression and social anxiety in the boys and young groups was significantly lower than those in the girls and old groups. There was no significant linear correlation between total BF%, Android BF%, Gynoid BF%, AOI and depression and social anxiety in the children and adolescents. However, total BF% and Gynoid BF% had significant nonlinear correlation with depression, showing an inverted U-shaped curve relationship with the tangent points of 26.8% and 30.9%, respectively. In terms of the nonlinear association of total BF%, Android BF%, Gynoid BF% and AOI with depression and social anxiety, the change trends of the boys and girls, low age group and high age group were consistent. The overall anxiety risk HR of body fat distribution in the boys was significantly higher than that in the girls, and the risk HR of depression and social anxiety were significantly higher in the high age group than those in the low age group. CONCLUSION There was no significant linear correlation between body fat distribution and depression and social anxiety in children and adolescents. Total BF% and depression showed an inverted U-shaped curve, mainly manifested in Gynoid BF%, and this trend was consistent in different genders and different age groups. Maintaining children and adolescents' body fat distribution at an appropriate level is the future direction of the prevention and control of depression and social anxiety in children and adolescents.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical effect on the joint attention and social communication in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) between the combined treatment of acupoint catgut embedding therapy with rehabilitation training and the simple application of rehabilitation training. METHODS: A total of 60 children with ASD were randomized into an observation group and a control group, 30 cases in each one. In the control group, the routine ASD rehabilitation training was adopted, including conductive education, speech training and music therapy, once a day. In the observation group, on the base of the treatment as the control group, the catgut embedding therapy was applied to Shenting (GV 24), Baihui (GV 20), Shenmen (HT 7) and the optic area (the point of scalp acupuncture), once a week. In the two groups, the treatment for 4 weeks was as one course, at the interval of 1 week between the courses. A total of 3 courses of treatment were required. The social domain of the autism treatment evaluation checklist (ATEC) and the autism behavior checklist (ABC) were adopted to assess the therapeutic effect of the two groups. RESULTS: After treatment, the scores of each item of the social domain in ATEC and the scores of ABC (feeling, communication, physical movement, language and healthy behavior) were all lower than those before treatment in the two groups (<0.01). The scores of each item in the observation group were lower than those in the control group after treatment (<0.05). CONCLUSION The combined treatment of acupoint catgut embedding therapy with the rehabilitation training effectively improves in the joint attention and social communication. The therapeutic effect of this combined treatment is better than the simple application of rehabilitation training.

OBJECTIVE: Larotaxel is a new chemical structure drug, which has not been marketed worldwide. Accordingly, the standard identification and quantification methods for larotaxel remain unclear. The spectrometric analyses were performed for verifying weight molecular formula, molecular weight and chemical structure of larotaxel. Besides, a quantification method was developed for measuring larotaxel in the liposomes. METHODS: The molecular formula, molecular weight and chemical structure of larotaxel were studied by using mass spectrometry (MS), infra-red (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectrometric techniques. The absorption wavelength of larotaxel was investigated by UV-vis spectrophotometry full-wavelength scanning. Besides, a quantification method was developed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and then validated by measuring the encapsulation efficacy of larotaxel liposomes. RESULTS: The four spectral characteristics of larotaxel were revealed and the corresponding standard spectra were defined. It was confirmed that larotaxel had the structure of tricyclic diterpenoids, with the molecular formula of C45H53NO14, the molecular weight of 831.900 1, and the maximum absorption wavelength of 230 nm. The quantitative method of larotaxel was established by using HPLC with a reversed phase C18 column (5 μm, 250 mm×4.6 mm), a mobile phase of acetonitrile-water (75:25, volume/volume), and a detection wavelength of 230 nm. The validation study exhibited that the established HPLC method was stable, and had a high recovery and precision in the quantitative measurement of larotaxel in liposomes. In addition, a new kind of larotaxel liposomes was also successfully prepared. The particle size of the liposomes was about 105 nm, with an even size distribution. And the encapsulation efficiency of larotaxel in the liposomes was above 80%. CONCLUSION The present study offers reference standard spectra of larotaxel, including MS, IR, NMR, and UV-vis, and confirms the molecular formula, molecular weight and chemical structure of larotaxel. Besides, the study develops a rapid HPLC method for quality control of larotaxel liposomes.

BACKGROUND:Bio-Oss bone substitutes have been shown to prevent bone resorption by slowing bone resorption,reducing bone resorption,and restoring the height of the alveolar ridge.However,most clinical studies focus on the efficacy within 1-3 months.OBJECTIVE:To compare the effects of two kinds of bone substitutes on the height of alveolar ridge and the periodontal tissue health status after implantation into the extraction socket of the wisdom tooth.METHODS:Forty patients with impacted mandibular teeth were randomly divided into two groups:Bio-Oss Collagen material was implanted in experimental group (n=20),and Bio-Oss bone replacement materials in control group (n=20).Cone-beam CT was retrospectively reviewed at 1,3 and 12 months after implantation.Alveolar bone height,bone changes and the second molars mobility were examined.Meanwhile,healing status of tooth extraction and gingival mucosa as well as the material spills were observed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) At 1 month after implantation,the gingival mucosa of both groups healed well without swelling.There was no spillover in the experimental group,while there were two cases of bone material spill in the control group.No tissues generated in the extraction socket and tooth loosening was observed in both groups.(2) At 3 months after implantation,the materials gradually degraded with no swelling and with generation of partial bone tissues in the experimental group,and the tooth mobility was improved.In the control group,there was also no swelling in the gums,and the materials degraded partially,but there was no presence of new bone and no improvement in the tooth mobility.(3) At 12 months after implantation,there was no swelling in the gums of the experimental group,obvious new bone tissues formed in the second molar with the presence of bone trabecula.The new bone tissues were integrated with the surrounding bone tissues.The crest of the alveolar ridge was located about 3 mm below the enamel cementum,the tooth mobility was restored to the level before extraction,and the chewing function recovered.In the control group,there was no swelling in the gums,and new bone tissues formed in the distal part of the molar,but the trabecular arrangement was not aligned.The crest of the alveolar was located about 3 mm below the enamel cementum,the tooth mobility returned to the pre-extraction level,and the chewing function was normal.(4) The height of the alveolar bone at 1 and 3 months after implantation was significantly higher in the experimental group than the control group (P ＜ 0.01),while there was no significant difference between the two groups at 12 months after implantation.To conclude,implantation of Bio-Oss Collagen immediately after removal of the impacted wisdom tooth of the mandible is beneficial to alveolar bone height and bone quality recovery,and significantly improves the periodontal health of the second molar,but the long-term effect needs further observation.

The aim of this study was to investigate the renal toxicity of rhubarb and its mechanism. The SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: normal group and two rhubarb extract groups (16, 2 g·kg⁻¹). According to the dose conversion method between human and animal, rhubarb 16 g·kg⁻¹ and 2 g·kg⁻¹ were equivalent to 10 times and 1.25 times of human clinical dose respectively. Rhubarb extract was administered by a gastric gavage to rats once daily for 30 days. Serum urea nitrogen （BUN）, creatinine （CRE） and urine KIM-1, NGAL and renal morphology were analyzed. The expressions of OAT1, OAT3 and clusterin mRNA in kidney were measured. The results showed that the low dose of rhubarb had no obvious renal toxicity. The high dose group showed mild and moderate renal injury and a down-regulation of clusterin mRNA expression in the kidney tissue. The renal toxicity in male animals was heavier than that in female animals. There was no significant change in blood BUN and CRE in the high dose group. But urine NGAL level of the high dose group increased by 51.53% compared with normal group, of which male animals increased more significantly (<0.05, compared with the normal group). The expressions of renal OAT1 and OAT3 mRNA in the low dose group were obviously higher than that in the normal group. The results indicated that the high dose of rhubarb could cause the renal toxicity. The dosage should be controlled reasonably in the clinical use. OAT1 and OAT3 mRNA related to anionic transport in kidney tissue played a compensatory protective role in rhubarb-induced renal injury. But the compensatory effect is relatively weak at the high dose level. In addition, routine renal function indicators BUN and CRE had limitation for monitoring the kidney toxicity of rhubarb. It is suggested that urine NGAL detection might be helpful for monitoring the renal toxicity of rhubarb.

OBJECTIVETo observe the protective effects of potassium channel opener nicorandil against cognitive dysfunction in mice with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes.

METHODSC57BL/6J mouse models of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) were established by intraperitoneal injection of STZ and received daily treatment with intragastric administration of nicorandil or saline (model group) for 4 consecutive weeks, with normal C57BL/6J mice serving as control. Fasting blood glucose level was recorded every week and Morris water maze was used to evaluate the cognitive behavior of the mice in the 4th week. At the end of the experiment, the mice were sacrificed to observe the ultrastructural changes in the hippocampus and pancreas under transmission electron microscopy; the contents of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in the hippocampus and SOD activity and MDA level in the brain tissue were determined.

RESULTSCompared with the control group, the model group showed significantly increased fasting blood glucose (P<0.001), significantly prolonged escape latency (P<0.05) and increased swimming distance (P<0.01) with ultrastructural damage of pancreatic β cells and in the hippocampus; GIP and GLP-1 contents in the hippocampus (P<0.01) and SOD activity in the brain were significantly decreased (P<0.05) and MDA content was significantly increased in the model group (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, nicorandil treatment did not cause significant changes in fasting blood glucose, but significantly reduced the swimming distance (P<0.05); nicorandil did not improve the ultrastructural changes in pancreatic β cells but obviously improved the ultrastructures of hippocampal neurons and synapses. Nicorandil also significantly increased the contents of GIP and GLP-1 in the hippocampus (P<0.05), enhanced SOD activity (P<0.05) and decreased MDA level (P<0.01) in the brain tissue.

CONCLUSIONNicorandil improves cognitive dysfunction in mice with STZ-induced diabetes by increasing GIP and GLP-1 contents in the hippocampus and promoting antioxidation to relieve hippocampal injury.
