Latest ArticlesTo investigate the gram-positive coccus resistance in nationwide tietiary hospitals, understand the trend of antimicrobial resistance and provide scientific data for the rational use of antibiotis.
All the clinical isolates were collected from 18 hospitals and the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were tested using agar/broth dilution method recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) in central laboratory.
A total of 2 311 pathogenic gram-positive coccus from 18 tertiary hospitals in 18 cities nationwide over the period from July 2023 to June 2024 were studied. Based on the MIC results, the prevalence of methicillin resistant Stapylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin resistant Stapylococcus epidermidis (MRSE) were 30.6% and 76.3%, respectively. No vancomycin insensitivitive Staphylococcus was detected. Stapylococcus aureus were 100% susceptible to linezolid and teicoplanin. Antibiotic resistance rates of Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium to ampicillin were 0.6% and 89.1%, respectively. 18 strains of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) were detected, all of which was Enterococcus faecium. The detection rate of VRE among Enterococcus faecium was 5.5%. The prevalence of penicillin non-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae (PNSSP) was 9.9% based on non-meningitis and parenteral administration criterion, while for cases of oral penicillin, the rate was 73.1%, showing similar to last time. The resistance rates of Streptococcus pneumoniae from children to cephalosporins, macrolides and clindamycin were slightly higher than those of adults and the elderly, while there were no statistic significant differences of resistance rates of Stapylococcus aureus, Stapylococcus epidermidis, Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus faecium and Streptococcus pneumoniae among various groups such as different departments, ages, or specimen sources (all P>0.05).
The detection rate of MRSA has continued to decline, while the detection rate of VRE has been on the rise. This situation requires continuous monitoring.
To investigate the gram-negative bacteria resistance in nationwide tietiary hospitals, understand the trend of antimicrobial resistance and provide scientific data for the rational use of antibiotis.
All the clinical isolates were collected from 18 hospitals and the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were tested using agar/broth dilution method recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) in central laboratory.
A total of 4 681 pathogenic isolates from 18 tertiary hospitals in 18 cities nationwide over the period from July 2023 to June 2024 were studied. Based on the MIC results, Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae showed extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBLs) phenotype rates of 50.7% and 20.7%, respectively, ESBLs phenotype rate keeps going down. The ratio of carbapenems resistance Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) was 35.4%, increased by 10 percentage points compared with the previous monitoring. Carbapenems, β-lactam combination agents and amikacin displayed desirable antibacterial activity against Enterobacterales, susceptibal rates were above 78%. In addition, tigacycline, eravacycline, colistin maintained good antibacterial activity against their respective effective bacteria/species, and the bacterial sensitivity rates by more than 90%. Resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannnii to imipennnem were 32.7% and 70.7% and multidrug-resistant (MDR) detection rates were 43.3% and 78.3%, Extensively drug-resistant (MDR) were 17.0% and 71.0%, respectively. Comparison of drug resistance rates from different wards, ages and specimen sources indicated that the proportion of resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from intensive care unit (ICU) were significantly higher than non-ICU. Resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from children were significantly lower than that in adults and the elderly. However, the detection rate of ESBLs phenotypes in Klebsiella pneumoniae in children was 57.1%, significantly higher than that in adults (16.3%) and the elderly (19.8%). In addition, the strains of Haemophilus influenzae from children had a higher resistance rates to cephalosporins, macrolides, and clindamycin than those in adults and the elderly. Comparisons of different specimen sources showed that the resistance rates of Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from urine specimens were significantly lower than that from other sources. No statistical differences were observed among other major bacterial species in different specimens, while the resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in sputum specimens and Escherichia coli in source drainage fluids were slightly higher than those from other sources.
The detection rates of ESBLs phenotypes in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae have continued to decline, while the detection rates of CRKP and ampicillin-resistant Haemophilus influenzae have shown an upward trend, which requires continuous attention.

To compare and analyze the application effects of remifentanil tosylate injection and propofol injection in painless endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in elderly patients.
A total of 106 elderly patients who underwent painless ERCP for treatment were included in this study. After excluding 4 patients according to the inclusion criteria, 102 patients were finally included. They were divided into two groups based on the medication used: the remimazolam group and the propofol group, with 51 patients in each group. Both groups of patients received general intravenous anesthesia. The remimazolam group was anesthetized with remimazolam mesylate combined with sufentanil, while the propofol group was anesthetized with propofol combined with sufentanil. Compared the anesthesia induction time, induction success rate, intraoperative hemodynamics, anesthesia recovery time, hemodynamics, stress response indicators between two groups of patients, and the safty was comparied.
The anesthesia induction time of the remimazolam group was (5.12±1.23) min, which was significantly longer than that of the propofol group (3.39±0.92) min. The success rate of the first induction was 52.94%, which was significantly lower than that of the propofol group 80.00% (all P<0.05). The eye-opening time of the remimazolam group and the propofol group were (4.96±1.58) and (8.00±2.03)min, respectively; the time for consciousness recovery were (5.92±1.64) and (9.10±2.59)min, respectively; the tracheal extubation time were (10.08±2.87) and (13.06±3.12) minutes, respectively; the retention time in the recovery room were (21.22±5.18) and (26.35±5.83) min, respectively. The eye opening, consciousness recovery, tracheal extubation and retention time in the recovery room in the remimazolam group were all significantly shorter than those in the propofol group (all P<0.05).

There were no statistically differences in perinatal mortality and incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups (P>0.05). The incidence of neonatal asphyxia in treatment group and control group was 2.22% and 17.02%, and the incidence of low body weight infants was 2.22% and 14.89%, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).
Atosiban acetate injection combined with magnesium sulfate injection can effectively inhibit uterine contraction, reduce inflammation, improve vascular endothelial function, regulate serum TIMP-1 expression, and improve perinatal outcomes in patients with threatened preterm delivery, with good safety and no significant effects on hemodynamics.
