Abstract
The escalation of antibiotic resistance and the diminishing antimicrobial pipeline have emerged as significant threats to public health. The ESKAPE pathogens - Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter spp. - were initially identified as critical multidrug-resistant bacteria, demanding urgently effective therapies. Despite the introduction of various new antibiotics and antibiotic adjuvants, such as innovative β-lactamase inhibitors, these organisms continue to pose substantial therapeutic challenges. People's Republic of China, as a country facing a severe bacterial resistance situation, has undergone a series of changes and findings in recent years in terms of the prevalence, transmission characteristics and resistance mechanisms of antibiotic resistant bacteria. The increasing levels of population mobility have not only shaped the unique characteristics of antibiotic resistance prevalence and transmission within People's Republic of China but have also indirectly reflected global patterns of antibiotic-resistant dissemination. What's more, as a vast nation, People's Republic of China exhibits significant variations in the levels of antibiotic resistance and the prevalence characteristics of antibiotic resistant bacteria across different provinces and regions. In this review, we examine the current epidemiology and characteristics of this important group of bacterial pathogens, delving into relevant mechanisms of resistance to recently introduced antibiotics that impact their clinical utility in China.

Abstract
ST11 is the most common lineage among carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) infections in Asia. Diverse morphotypes resulting from genetic mutations are associated with significant differences in microbial characteristics among K. pneumoniae isolates. Here, we investigated the genetic determinants and critical characteristics associated with distinct morphotypes of ST11 CRKP. An ST11-KL47 CRKP isolate carrying a pLVPK-like virulence plasmid was isolated from a patient with a bloodstream infection; the isolate had the "mcsw" morphotype. Two distinct morphotypes ("ntrd" and "msdw") were derived from this strain during in vitro passage. Whole genome sequencing was used to identify mutations that cause the distinct morphotypes of ST11 CRKP. Transmission electron microscopy, antimicrobial susceptibility tests, growth assays, biofilm formation, virulence assays, membrane permeability assays, and RNA-seq analysis were used to investigate the specific characteristics associated with different morphotypes of ST11 CRKP. Compared with the parental mcsw morphotype, the ntrd morphotype resulted from mutation of genes involved in capsular polysaccharide biosynthesis (wza, wzc, and wbaP), a result validated by gene knockout experiments. This morphotype showed capsule deficiency and lower virulence potential, but higher biofilm production. By contrast, the msdw morphotype displayed competition deficiency and increased susceptibility to chlorhexidine and polymyxin B. Further analyses indicated that these characteristics were caused by interruption of the sigma factor gene rpoN by insertion mutations and deletion of the rpoN gene, which attenuated membrane integrity presumably by downregulating the phage shock protein operon. These data expand current understanding of genetic, virulence, and antimicrobial resistance characteristics associated with distinct morphotypes in ST11 CRKP.

Abstract
Previous studies have mainly focused on outpatient cases of skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs), with limited attention to inpatient occurrences. Thus, we aimed to compare the clinical parameters of inpatients with SSTIs, performed genomic characterization, and determined the subtypes of Panton-Valentine leucocidin (PVL) bacteriophages of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains isolated from these patients. We found that PVL-positive patients had shorter hospital stays (mean, 9 vs. 24 days; p < 0.001) and abscess resolution durations (mean, 8 vs. 13 days; p < 0.01). PVL-positive MRSA-induced SSTIs were more frequently associated with abscesses [36/55 (65.5%) vs. 15/124 (12.1%), p < 0.001], with 52.7% undergoing incision and drainage; over 80% of PVL-negative patients received incision, drainage, and antibiotics. In PVL-positive patients receiving empirical antibiotics, anti-staphylococcal agents such as vancomycin and linezolid were administered less frequently (32.7%, 18/55) than in PVL-negative patients (74.2%, 92/124), indicating that patients with PVL-positive SSTIs are more likely to require surgical drainage rather than antimicrobial treatment. We also found that the ST59 lineage was predominant, regardless of PVL status (41.3%, 74/179). Additionally, we investigated the linear structure of the lukSF-PV gene, revealing that major clusters were associated with specific STs, suggesting independent acquisition of PVL by different strain types and indicating that significant diversity was observed even within PVL-positive strains detected in the same facility. Overall, our study provides comprehensive insights into the clinical, genetic, and phage-related aspects of MRSA-induced SSTIs in hospitalized patients and contributes to a more profound understanding of the epidemiology and evolution of these pathogens in the Chinese population.

Abstract
Objective: To report the long-term outcomes of Chinese rectal cancer patients after adopting a Watch and Wait (W&W) strategy following neoadjuvant therapy (NAT). Methods: This multicenter, cross-sectional study was based on real-world data. The study cohort comprised rectal cancer patients who had achieved complete or near complete clinical responses (cCRs, near-cCRs) after NAT and were thereafter managed by a W&W approach, as well as a few patients who had achieved good responses after NAT and had then undergone local excision for confirmation of pathological complete response. All participants had been followed up for ≥2 years. Patients with distant metastases at baseline or who opted for observation while living with the tumor were excluded. Data of eligible patients were retrospectively collected from the Chinese Wait-and-Watch Data Collaboration Group database. These included baseline characteristics, type of NAT, pre-treatment imaging results, evaluation of post-NAT efficacy, salvage measures, and treatment outcomes. We herein report the long-term outcomes of Chinese rectal cancer patients after NAT and W&W and the differences between the cCR and near-cCR groups. Results: Clinical data of 318 rectal cancer patients who had undergone W&W for over 2 years and been followed up were collected from eight medical centers (Peking University Cancer Hospital, Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center, Shanghai Changhai Hospital, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Liaoning Cancer Hospital, the First Hospital of Jilin University, and Yunnan Cancer Hospital.) The participants comprised 221 men (69.4%) and 107 women (30.6%) of median age 60 (26-86) years. The median distance between tumor and anal verge was 3.4 (0-10.4) cm. Of these patients, 291 and 27 had achieved cCR or near-cCR, respectively, after NAT. The median duration of follow-up was 48.4 (10.2-110.3) months. The 5-year cumulative overall survival rate was 92.4% (95%CI: 86.8%-95.7%), 5-year cumulative disease-specific survival (CSS) rate 96.6% (95%CI: 92.2%-98.5%), 5-year cumulative organ-preserving disease-free survival rate 86.6% (95%CI: 81.0%-90.7%), and 5-year organ preservation rate 85.3% (95%CI: 80.3%-89.1%). The overall 5-year local recurrence and distant metastasis rates were 18.5% (95%CI: 14.9%-20.8%) and 8.2% (95%CI: 5.4%-12.5%), respectively. Most local recurrences (82.1%, 46/56) occurred within 2 years, and 91.0% (51/56) occurred within 3 years, the median time to recurrence being 11.7 (2.5-66.6) months. Most (91.1%, 51/56) local recurrences occurred within the intestinal lumen. Distant metastases developed in 23 patients; 60.9% (14/23) occurred within 2 years and 73.9% (17/23) within 3 years, the median time to distant metastasis being 21.9 (2.6-90.3) months. Common sites included lung (15/23, 65.2%), liver (6/23, 26.1%), and bone (7/23, 30.4%) The metastases involved single organs in 17 patients and multiple organs in six. There were no significant differences in overall, cumulative disease-specific, or organ-preserving disease-free survival or rate of metastases between the two groups (all P>0.05). The 5-year local recurrence rate was higher in the near-cCR than in the cCR group (41.6% vs. 16.4%, P<0.01), with a lower organ preservation rate (69.2% vs. 88.0%, P<0.001). The success rates of salvage after local recurrence and distant metastasis were 82.1% (46/56) and 13.0% (3/23), respectively. Conclusion: Rectal cancer patients who achieve cCR or near-cCR after NAT and undergo W&W have favorable oncological outcomes and a high rate of organ preservation. Local recurrence and distant metastasis during W&W follow certain patterns, with a relatively high salvage rate for local recurrence. Our findings highlight the importance of close follow-up and timely intervention during the W&W process.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Optimising blood culture processing is important to ensure that bloodstream infections are accurately diagnosed while minimising adverse events caused by antibiotic abuse. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of optimised blood culture processes on antibiotic use, clinical outcomes and economics in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with positive blood cultures. METHODS From March 2020 to October 2021, this microbiology laboratory implemented a series of improvement measures, including the clinical utility of Fastidious Antimicrobial Neutralization (FAN® PLUS) bottles for the BacT/Alert Virtuo blood culture system, optimisation of bottle reception, graded reports and an upgraded laboratory information system. A total of 122 ICU patients were included in the pre-optimisation group from March 2019 to February 2020, while 179 ICU patients were included in the post-optimisation group from November 2021 to October 2022. RESULTS Compared with the pre-optimisation group, the average reporting time of identification and antimicrobial sensitivity was reduced by 16.72 hours in the optimised group. The time from admission to targeted antibiotic therapy within 24 hours after receiving both the Gram stain report and the final report were both significantly less in the post-optimisation group compared with the pre-optimisation group. The average hospitalisation time was reduced by 6.49 days, the average antimicrobial drug cost lowered by $1720.85 and the average hospitalisation cost by $9514.17 in the post-optimisation group. CONCLUSIONS Optimising blood culture processing was associated with a significantly increased positive detection rate, a remarkable reduction in the length of hospital stay and in hospital costs for ICU patients with bloodstream infections.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To study the clinical relevance, mechanisms, and evolution of polymyxin B (POLB) heteroresistance (PHR) in carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP), potentially leading to a significant rise in POLB full resistant (FR) CRKP. METHODS Total of 544 CRKP isolates from 154 patients treated with POLB were categorized into PHR and POLB non-heteroresistance (NHR) groups. We performed statistical analysis to compare clinical implications and treatment responses. We employed whole-genome sequencing, bioinformatics, and PCR to study the molecular epidemiology, mechanisms behind PHR, and its evolution into FR. RESULTS We observed a considerable proportion (118 of 154, 76.62%) of clinically undetected PHR strains before POLB exposure, with a significant subset of them (33 of 118, 27.97%) evolving into FR after POLB treatment. We investigated the clinical implications, epidemiological characteristics, mechanisms, and evolutionary patterns of PHR strains in the context of POLB treatment. About 92.86% (39 of 42) of patients had PHR isolates before FR, highlighting the clinical importance of PHR. the ST15 exhibited a notably lower PHR rate (1 of 8, 12.5% vs. 117 of 144, 81.25%; p < 0.01). The ST11 PHR strains showing significantly higher rate of mgrB mutations by endogenous insertion sequences in their resistant subpopulation (RS) compared with other STs (78 of 106, 73.58% vs. 4 of 12, 33.33%; p < 0.01). The mgrB insertional inactivation rate was lower in FR isolates than in the RS of PHR isolates (15 of 42, 35.71% vs. 84 of 112, 75%; p < 0.01), whereas the pmrAB mutation rate was higher in FR isolates than in the RS of PHR isolates (8 of 42, 19.05% vs. 2 of 112, 1.79%; p < 0.01). The evolution from PHR to FR was influenced by subpopulation dynamics and genetic adaptability because of hypermutability. DISCUSSION We highlight significant genetic changes as the primary driver of PHR to FR in CRKP, underscoring polymyxin complexity.

Abstract
Theory predicts that males and females of dioecious species typically engage in an evolutionary sexual conflict over the frequency and choice of mating partner. Female sexual cannibalism, a particularly dramatic illustration of this conflict, is widespread in certain animal taxa including spiders. Nevertheless, females of some funnel weaving spiders that are generally aggressive to conspecifics enter a cataleptic state after male courtship, ensuring the males can mate without risk of attack. In this study, we demonstrated that the physical posture and duration, metabolites, and central neurotransmitters of females of Aterigena aculeata in sexual catalepsy closely resemble females in thanatosis but are distinct from those in anesthesia, indicating that the courted females feign death to eliminate the risk of potentially aggressive responses and thereby allow preferred males to mate. Unlike the taxonomically widespread thanatosis, which generally represents a deceptive visual signal that acts against the interest of the receivers, sexual catalepsy of females in the funnel weaving spiders may deliver a sexual-receptive signal to the courting males and thereby benefit both the signal senders and receivers. Therefore, sexual catalepsy in A. aculeata may not reflect a conflict but rather a confluence of interest between the sexes.

Abstract
PURPOSES This study determined the synergy of polymyxin B (POLB) and colistin (COL) with 16 other tested antimicrobial agents in the inhibition of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MDR-AB). METHODS We used chequerboard assays to determine synergy between the drugs against 50 clinical MDR-AB from a tertiary hospital in the Zhejiang province in 2019, classifying combinations as either antagonistic, independent, additive, or synergistic. The efficacy of hit combinations which showed highest synergistic rate were confirmed using time-kill assays. RESULTS Both POLB and COL displayed similar bactericidal effects when used in combination with these 16 tested drugs. Antagonism was only observed for a few strains (2%) exposed to a combination of POLB and cefoperazone/sulbactam (CSL). A higher percentage of synergistic combinations with POLB and COL were observed with rifabutin (RFB; 90%/96%), rifampicin (RIF; 60%/78%) and rifapentine (RFP; 56%/76%). Time-kill assays also confirmed the synergistic effect of POLB and rifamycin class combinations. 1/2 MIC rifamycin exposure can achieve bacterial clearance when combined with 1/2 MIC POLB or COL. CONCLUSION Nearly no antagonism was observed when combining polymyxins with other drugs by both chequerboard and time-kill assays, suggesting that polymyxins may be effective in combination therapy. The combinations of POLB/COL with RFB, RIF, and RFP displayed neat synergy, with RFB showing the greatest effect.

Abstract
AIMS SIRT1 deficiency has been associated with diabetes, and a variant of the SIRT1 gene has been found to be involved in human autoimmune diabetes; however, it is unclear whether this genetic variation exists in Han Chinese with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and whether it contributes to development of T1D. Therefore, we aimed to explore the association of the SIRT1 gene single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs10997866 and rs3818292 in a Han Chinese population with T1D. METHODS This study recruited 2653 unrelated Han Chinese individuals, of whom 1289 had T1D and 1364 were healthy controls. Allelic and genotypic distributions of SIRT1 polymorphisms (rs10997866 and rs3818292) were determined by MassARRAY. Basic characteristics, genotype and allele frequencies of selected SNPs were compared between the T1D patients and healthy controls. Further genotype-phenotype association analysis of the SNPs was performed on the T1D patients divided into three groups according to genotype. Statistical analyses included the chi-square test, Mann‒Whitney U test, Kruskal‒Wallis H test and logistic regression. RESULTS The allelic (G vs. A) and genotypic (GA vs. AA) distributions of SIRT1 rs10997866 were significantly different in T1D patients and healthy controls (P = 0.039, P = 0.027), and rs10997866 was associated with T1D susceptibility under dominant, overdominant and additive models (P = 0.026, P = 0.030 and P = 0.027, respectively). Moreover, genotype-phenotype association analysis showed the GG genotype of rs10997866 and the GG genotype of rs3818292 to be associated with higher titers of IA-2A (P = 0.013 and P = 0.038, respectively). CONCLUSION SIRT1 rs10997866 is significantly associated with T1D susceptibility, with the minor allele G conferring a higher risk of T1D. Moreover, SIRT1 gene rs10997866 and rs3818292 correlate with the titer of IA-2A in Han Chinese individuals with T1D.

Abstract
Decreased nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels contribute to various pathologies such as ageing, diabetes, heart failure and ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Nicotinamide riboside (NR) has emerged as a promising therapeutic NAD+ precursor due to efficient NAD+ elevation and was recently shown to be the only agent able to reduce cardiac IRI in models employing clinically relevant anesthesia. However, through which metabolic pathway(s) NR mediates IRI protection remains unknown. Furthermore, the influence of insulin, a known modulator of cardioprotective efficacy, on the protective effects of NR has not been investigated. Here, we used the isolated mouse heart allowing cardiac metabolic control to investigate: (1) whether NR can protect the isolated heart against IRI, (2) the metabolic pathways underlying NR-mediated protection, and (3) whether insulin abrogates NR protection. NR protection against cardiac IRI and effects on metabolic pathways employing metabolomics for determination of changes in metabolic intermediates, and 13C-glucose fluxomics for determination of metabolic pathway activities (glycolysis, pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) and mitochondrial/tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle) activities), were examined in isolated C57BL/6N mouse hearts perfused with either (a) glucose + fatty acids (FA) ("mild glycolysis group"), (b) lactate + pyruvate + FA ("no glycolysis group"), or (c) glucose + FA + insulin ("high glycolysis group"). NR increased cardiac NAD+ in all three metabolic groups. In glucose + FA perfused hearts, NR reduced IR injury, increased glycolytic intermediate phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP), TCA intermediate succinate and PPP intermediates ribose-5P (R5P) / sedoheptulose-7P (S7P), and was associated with activated glycolysis, without changes in TCA cycle or PPP activities. In the "no glycolysis" hearts, NR protection was lost, whereas NR still increased S7P. In the insulin hearts, glycolysis was largely accelerated, and NR protection abrogated. NR still increased PPP intermediates, with now high 13C-labeling of S7P, but NR was unable to increase metabolic pathway activities, including glycolysis. Protection by NR against IRI is only present in hearts with low glycolysis, and is associated with activation of glycolysis. When activation of glycolysis was prevented, through either examining "no glycolysis" hearts or "high glycolysis" hearts, NR protection was abolished. The data suggest that NR's acute cardioprotective effects are mediated through glycolysis activation and are lost in the presence of insulin because of already elevated glycolysis.

Abstract
Pulmonary bullae is a common complication of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD), causing the deterioration in lung function, leading to aggravated dyspnea and poor quality of life for patients. The traditional therapeutic approach for pulmonary bullae is bullectomy using surgical thoracoscopy. The disadvantage of this approach is the postoperative complications and high risk of recurrence in many patients. In addition, for some patients, due to the patient's physical conditions, such as poor lung function and other diseases, bullectomy could not be used. Therefore, new alternative approaches were urgently needed. In recent years, interventional respiratory technology has been trialed to treat pulmonary bulla all around the world and has achieved great success. In this paper, we reviewed the relevant clinical research progress of interventional respiratory medicine techniques in the treatment of pulmonary bullae.

Abstract
Bloodstream infections by bacteria, especially multidrug-resistant bacteria, remain a worldwide public health concern. We evaluated the antibacterial activity of ceftobiprole and comparable drugs against different bloodstream isolates and different sequence types of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in China. We found that MRSA, methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA), and methicillin-susceptible coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (MSCNS) displayed ceftobiprole sensitivity rates of >95%, which are similar to the rates for linezolid, daptomycin, and vancomycin. Of the tested MRCNS strains, 90.4% were sensitive to ceftobiprole. The sensitivities of ST59, ST398, and ST22 MRSA to ceftobiprole were higher than that of ST239. Ceftobiprole's MIC50/90 value against Enterococcus faecalis was 0.25/2 mg/L, whereas Enterococcus faecium was completely resistant to this drug. Ceftobiprole exhibited no activity against ESBL-positive Enterobacterales, with resistance rates between 78.6% and 100%. For ESBL-negative Enterobacterales, excluding Klebsiella oxytoca, the sensitivity to ceftobiprole was comparable to that of ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, and cefepime. The MIC50/90 value of ceftobiprole against Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 2/16 mg/L, and for Acinetobacter baumannii, it was 32/>32 mg/L. Thus, ceftobiprole shows excellent antimicrobial activity against ESBL-negative Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (comparable to that of ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, and cefepime); however, it is not effective against ESBL-positive Enterobacterales and Acinetobacter baumannii. These results provide important information to clinicians.

Abstract
In the presence of a thiyl radical species, the catalytic Markovnikov thiol-ene reaction is challenging because it prefers to proceed via a radical pathway, thereby leading to anti-Markovnikov selectivity. In this work, a rare example of thiyl radical engaged in Markovnikov thiol-ene reaction enabled by cobalt catalysis is reported. This protocol features the avoidance of unique oxidants, exclusive regioselectivity, and broad substrate scope. Scalable synthesis and late-stage modification of complex molecules demonstrate the practicability of the protocol.

Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of neoadjuvant radiotherapy on anorectal function of patients with mid-low rectal cancer by means of high-resolution anorectal manometry. Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted. Information on patients with mid-low rectal cancer was collected from the prospective registry database of Rectal Cancer at Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) from June 2020 to April 2023. Anorectal functions were detected using three-dimensional high-resolution manometry system. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the factors associated with the changed anorectal manometry. Results: A total of 45 patients with mid-low rectal cancer were included in the study. Thirty-two (71.1%) patients were male, 13 (28.9%) patients were female. The mean age was 60±11 years, and the mean BMI was 23.4±3.7 kg/m2. The mean distance between the lower edge of the tumor and the anal verge was 5.4±1.5 cm. The median size of the tumor was 3.4 (2.9-4.5) cm, and the median circumferential extent of the tumor was 66.0 (45.5-75.0) %. 41 (81.1%) patients were MRI T3-4 and 40 (88.9%) patients were MRI N positive. The resting pressure has a decreasing trend after neoadjuvant radiotherapy (55.3±32.0 mmHg vs. 48.0±28.5 mmHg, t=1.930, P=0.060). There was no significant change in maximum squeezing and the length of the high-pressure zone after neoadjuvant radiotherapy. All volumes describing rectal sensitivity (first sensation, desire to defecate, and maximum tolerance) were lower after neoadjuvant radiotherapy. And maximum tolerance was significantly lower (66.0 [49.0,88.0] ml vs. 52.0 [39.0,73.5] ml, Z=-2.481,P=0.013). Univariate analysis demonstrated that the downstage of N-stage was associated with the decrease in maximum tolerance (OR=6.533, 95%CI:1.254-34.051, P=0.026). Conclusion: Neoadjuvant radiotherapy damages anorectal function by decreasing the resting pressure and rectal sensory threshold of patients. The N-stage downstaging was associated with a decrease in maximum tolerance.

Abstract
Macrophages are the main components of the innate immunity system, derived mainly from blood monocytes, and help the host to defend itself against many pathogens and cancers. Most established tumors can educate macrophages into tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), which contribute to tumor growth, invasion and metastasis, as well as resistance to chemotherapeutic agents and immune checkpoint inhibitors. However, when appropriately activated, macrophages can also exert anti-tumor effects through enhanced phagocytosis and cytotoxicity against tumor cells. In addition, TAMs are associated with poor prognosis and drug resistance, including immunotherapies, suggesting that macrophages are attractive targets as part of combination therapy in cancer treatment. Herein, we review the recent findings on the role of macrophages in tumor development, metastasis and immunotherapy. We focus mainly on macrophage-centered therapy, including strategies to reduce and reshape TAMs, to represent potential targets for tumor immunotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The infection of carbapenem-resistant organisms was a huge threat to human health due to their global spread. Dealing with a carbapenem-resistant Serratia marcescens (CRSM) infection poses a significant challenge in clinical settings. This study aims to provide insights into strategies for controlling CRSM infection by exploring the transformation mechanism of carbapenem-resistance. METHODS We used whole genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate the mechanism of carbapenem resistance in 14 S. marcescens isolates in vivo. The expression level of related genes and the minimum inhibitory concentration of meropenem (MICMEM) were also evaluated to confirm the mechanism of carbapenem resistance. RESULTS Seven groups of S. marcescens, each consisting of two strains, were collected from a hospital and displayed a shift in MICMEM from low to high levels. Homology analysis revealed that the isolates in five groups were significantly different from the remaining two. WGS and experimental evidence indicated that four groups of strains developed carbapenem resistance by acquiring the blaKPC (obtaining group), while two groups (persisting group) increased the expression level of the blaKPC. In contrast, isolates in the last group (missing group) did not carry the blaKPC. All strains possessed multiple β-lactamase genes, including blaCTX-M-14, blaSRT-1, and blaSRT-2. However, only in the missing group, the carbapenem-resistant strain lost an outer membrane protein-encoding gene, leading to increased blaCTX-M-14 expression compared to the carbapenem-susceptible strain. CONCLUSION The study findings suggest that S. marcescens strains developed diverse carbapenem resistance in vivo through the evolution of drug resistance, rather than through clone replacement. We hypothesize that carbapenem resistance in S. marcescens was due to certain clonal types with a distinct mechanism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To define molecular features of ovarian cancer (OC) with germline pathogenic variants (PVs) in non-BRCA homologous recombination (HR) genes and analyze survival compared to BRCA1/2 and wildtype (WT) OC. METHODS We included patients with OC undergoing tumor-normal sequencing (MSK-IMPACT) from 07/01/2015-12/31/2020, including germline assessment of BRCA1/2 and other HR genes ATM, BARD1, BRIP1, FANCA, FANCC, NBN, PALB2, RAD50, RAD51B, RAD51C, and RAD51D. Biallelic inactivation was assessed within tumors. Progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated from pathologic diagnosis using the Kaplan-Meier method with left truncation. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed in a subset. RESULTS Of 882 patients with OC, 56 (6.3%) had germline PVs in non-BRCA HR genes; 95 (11%) had BRCA1-associated OC (58 germline, 37 somatic); and 59 (6.7%) had BRCA2-associated OC (40 germline, 19 somatic). High rates of biallelic alterations were observed among germline PVs in BRIP1 (11/13), PALB2 (3/4), RAD51B (3/4), RAD51C (3/4), and RAD51D (8/10). In cases with WES (27/35), there was higher tumor mutational burden (TMB; median 2.5 [1.1-6.0] vs. 1.2 mut/Mb [0.6-2.6]) and enrichment of HR-deficient (HRD) mutational signatures in tumors associated with germline PALB2 and RAD51B/C/D compared with BRIP1 PVs (p < 0.01). Other features of HRD, including telomeric-allelic imbalance (TAI) and large-scale state transitions (LSTs), were similar. Although there was heterogeneity in PFS/OS by gene group, only BRCA1/2-associated OC had improved survival compared to WT OC (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS OCs associated with germline PVs in non-BRCA HR genes represent a heterogenous group, with PALB2 and RAD51B/C/D associated with an HRD phenotype.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Elizabethkingia meningoseptica is an emerging infectious agent associated with life-threatening infections in immunocompromised individuals. However, there are limited data available on the genomic features of E. meningoseptica. This study aims to characterize the geographical distribution, phylogenetic evolution, pathogenesis, and transmission of this bacterium. A systematic analysis of the E. meningoseptica genome revealed that a common ancestor of this bacterium existed 90 years ago. The evolutionary history showed no significant relationship with the sample source, origin, or region, despite the presence of genetic diversity. Whole genome sequencing data also demonstrated that E. meningoseptica bacteria possess inherent resistance and pathogenicity, enabling them to spread within the same hospital and even across borders. This study highlights the potential for E. meningoseptica to cause severe nosocomial outbreaks and horizontal transmission between countries worldwide. The available evidence is crucial for the development of evidence-based public health policies to prevent global outbreaks caused by emerging pathogens.

Abstract
Unstable ventilatory control is one of the key pathophysiological mechanisms of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and the activity of chemoreceptors is an important part of ventilatory control. Chemosensitivity has a significant impact on the severity and prognosis of OSA, and the incidence of comorbidities. The focus on reducing chemosensitivity can be seen as an emerging theme to promote individualized and precise treatment of OSA. Further exploration of chemosensitivity in OSA will be an emerging direction and a major challenge for current and future research in the field of sleep.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate effect of inoculum size of extended-spectrum β-Lactamase (ESBL)-producing-, AmpC-producing-, and KPC-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae on the in vitro antibacterial effects of imipenem/relebactam (IMR) and ceftazidime/avibactam (CZA). METHODS We compared the impact of inoculum size on IMR and CZA of sixteen clinical isolates and three standard isolates through antimicrobial susceptibility tests, time-kill assays and in vitro PK/PD studies. RESULTS When inoculum size increased from 105 to 107 CFU/mL, an inoculum effect was observed for 26.3% (5/19) and 52.6% (10/19) of IMR and CZA, respectively; time-kill assays revealed that the concentration of CZA increased from ≥ 4 × MIC to 16 × MIC to reach 99.9% killing rate against K. pneumoniae ATCC-BAA 1705 (KPC-2-, OXA-9- and SHV-182-producing) and 60,700 (SHV-27- and DHA-1-producing). While for IMR, a concentration from 1 × MIC to 4 × MIC killed 99.9% of the four strains. When the inoculum size increased to 109 CFU/mL, neither IMR nor CZA showed a detectable antibacterial effect, even at a high concentration. An in vitro PK/PD study revealed a clear bactericidal effect when IMR administered as 1.25 g q6h when inoculum size increased. CONCLUSION An inoculum effect on CZA was observed more frequent than that on IMR. Among the β-lactamase-producing strains, the inoculum effect was most common for SHV-producing and KPC-producing strains.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sophorae Flavescentis Radix (Kuh-seng, SFR), a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), is widely used alone or within a TCM formula to treat pruritus, especially histamine-independent intractable itching. In the previous study, potential antipruritic active components of the SFR were screened based on cell membrane immobilized chromatography (CMIC), revealing oxymatrine (OMT) as an antipruritic agent. However, the low oral bioavailability (OB) of OMT cannot explain the antipruritic effect of SFR when administered orally in clinic. In this study, we investigated the antipruritic effects and underlying mechanisms of orally administered SFR. MATERIALS AND METHODS A network pharmacology and molecular docking were employed to screen the active components of SFR and predict their binding to disease-related target proteins, while the potential mechanisms were explored with Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis. The binding energy between components and target proteins was calculated by molecular docking. RESULTS The SFR-components-targets-intractable itching Protein-Protein Interactions (PPI) network was established, and 22 active components and 42 targets were screened. The GO enrichment analysis showed that the key target genes of SFR were related to nuclear receptors, transcription factors, and steroid hormone receptors. The results of the KEGG enrichment pathway analysis include Hepatitis B, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance, advanced glycation end product (AGE)-receptor for AGE (RAGE) signaling pathway in diabetic complications, etc. Molecular docking showed that three key target proteins in the network, the vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and caspase-3 (CASP3), have higher binding activities with inermine, phaseolin and kushenol O, respectively; the binding energy of each pair is stronger than that of the target protein-corresponding inhibitors. CONCLUSIONS The complexity of the SFR-components-targets-intractable itching network demonstrated the holistic treatment effect of SFR on intractable itching. The partial coherence between results screened by CMIC in the previous study and network pharmacology demonstrated the potential of network pharmacology in active component screening. Inermine screened from both CMIC and network pharmacology is a VEGFA inhibitor, which possibly accounts for the antipruritic effect of orally administered SFR.

Abstract
The increasing rate of community-associated Staphylococcus aureus (CA-SA) worldwide has aroused global public concern for decades. Although ST121 clone is one of the prevalent CA-SA in China, there is still limited knowledge about it. In this study, we conducted a genomic analysis of 28 CA-SA ST121 isolates from severe bloodstream infection cases and 175 ST121 isolates from the public database. Phylogenetic analysis revealed the consistency and the complexity of global ST121 lineages, and suggested potential cross-country even cross-continental transmission of ST121 isolates. By investigating the virulence and fitness between ST121-CA-methicillin-resistant SA (CA-MRSA) and other CA-MRSA clones, we found that ST121-MRSA exhibits virulence comparable to the highly virulent USA300 clone, exceeding that of the predominant CA-MRSA lineage ST59 in China and the other American CA-MRSA clone MW2. Notably, based on analyses of virulence genes, eta, etb, edin-C and egc were only found in ST121, suggesting that the high virulence of ST121 may be attributed to the combination of these virulence factors encoded by mobile genetic elements. However, results of experiments in mice nasal and human alveolar epithelial cells showed that the colonization capacity of ST121 is much lower than that of other clones. Moreover, ST121-MRSA displayed much lower acid tolerance, suggesting that ST121-MRSA may not have such capacity to achieve the epidemiological success of other CA-MRSA clones and become the dominant lineage. Our findings expand current understanding of the epidemiology and pathogenicity of the hypervirulent ST121 clone, and highlight the importance of colonization capacity and environmental adaption in MRSA epidemiological success.

Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious, worldwide public health crisis. Surveillance of antimicrobial use forms part of an essential strategy to contain AMR. We aimed to conduct a national point prevalence survey (PPS) on antimicrobial use, and to compare this data with similar international surveillance programs to provide a reference for future AMR strategy development in China. Twenty general hospitals encompassing 10,881 beds and 10,209 inpatients around the country participated the survey using a standardized protocol, at 8am of someday from October 10th to November 31st, 2019. Of the patients, 37.00% (3777/10209) received antimicrobial agents, 31.30% (1630/5208) had surgical operations, and 76.63% (1249/1630) received prophylactic antibiotic. The prevalence of antimicrobial use in medical, surgical, and intensive care units (ICU) patients was 38.84% (1712/4408), 32.07% (1670/5208), and 66.61% (395/593), respectively. Of prescriptions, 5.79% (356/6151) were made in the absence of indication. The intensity of antimicrobial use was 61.25 DDDs/100 patient days, while the intensity of use in internal medicine, surgery, and ICU were 67.79, 45.81, 124.45 DDDs/100 patient days, respectively. Only 11.62% (715/6151) of prescriptions had a reason described in the patient record. Furthermore, 8.44% (210/2487), 14.19% (424/2989), and 12% (81/675) of the prescriptions in internal medicine, surgery, and ICU had a recorded indication, respectively. The review and stop date recorded for antimicrobial therapy was 43.73% (1976/4518). Of the patients, 38.07% (1438/3777) received combination therapy. The classes of antimicrobials prescribed were limited, and the proportion of prescriptions encompassed by the top 20 antimicrobial agents was 75.06% (4617/6151). The prevalence of antimicrobial use in China is close to that of Sweden, the UK, and Canada, but lower than that in India, and higher than that in Switzerland. The data described in this report indicate that the quality of antimicrobial prescriptions requires improvement in China. Further, hospitals should implement professional interventions to improve the rational use of antimicrobials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reactive cutaneous capillary endothelial proliferation (RCCEP), a special adverse event (AE) only observed in patients treated with camrelizumab, was reported to be correlated with the efficacy of camrelizumab in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. This study to analyze the possible correlation between the occurrence of RCCEP and efficacy of camrelizumab in patients with recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC). MATERIAL AND METHODS In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the efficacy and RCCEP occurrence of camrelizumab in 58 patients with R/M HNSCC in the Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital affiliated to Shanghai JiaoTong University School of Medicine between January 2019 and June 2022. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to assess the correlation between the occurrence of RCCEP and the survival of enrolled patients, and COX multifactor analysis was adopted to evaluate associated factors that affected the efficacy of camrelizumab immunotherapy. RESULTS A significant correlation between the incidence of RCCEP and a higher objective response rate was observed in this study (p=0.008). The occurrence of RCCEP was associated with better median overall survival (17.0 months vs. 8.7 months, p<0.0001, HR=5.944, 95% CI:2.097-16.84) and better median progression-free survival (15.1 months vs. 4.0 months, p<0.0001, HR=4.329,95% CI:1.683-11.13). In COX multifactor analysis, RCCEP occurrence was also an independent prognostic factor affecting OS and PFS in patients with R/M HNSCC. CONCLUSIONS The occurrence of RCCEP can show a better prognosis, it could be used as a clinical biomarker to predict the efficacy of camrelizumab treatment.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Typhoid fever is a life-threatening disease caused by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi, resulting in a significant disease burden across developing countries. Historically, China was very much close to the global epicenter of typhoid, but the role of typhoid transmission within China and among epicenter remains overlooked in previous investigations. By using newly produced genomics on a national scale, we clarify the complex local and global transmission history of such a notorious disease agent in China spanning the most recent five decades, which largely undermines the global public health network.

Abstract
Antibiotics are recognized widely for their benefits when used appropriately. However, they are often used inappropriately despite the importance of responsible use within good clinical practice. Effective antibiotic treatment is an essential component of universal healthcare, and it is a global responsibility to ensure appropriate use. Currently, pharmaceutical companies have little incentive to develop new antibiotics due to scientific, regulatory, and financial barriers, further emphasizing the importance of appropriate antibiotic use. To address this issue, the Global Alliance for Infections in Surgery established an international multidisciplinary task force of 295 experts from 115 countries with different backgrounds. The task force developed a position statement called WARNING (Worldwide Antimicrobial Resistance National/International Network Group) aimed at raising awareness of antimicrobial resistance and improving antibiotic prescribing practices worldwide. The statement outlined is 10 axioms, or "golden rules," for the appropriate use of antibiotics that all healthcare workers should consistently adhere in clinical practice.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The rate of grade 2 and higher pneumonitis has increased with the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) following chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for lung cancer, which may alter previously established dose-volume constraints (DVC). In this study, we used an interpretable machine learning model with clinical and dosimetric features to predict grade 2+ pneumonitis and determine DVC associated with pneumonitis for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) radiotherapy (RT). MATERIALS/METHODS Between October 2017 and December 2021, 223 consecutively treated patients with LANSCLC treated with CRT and ICI were retrospectively reviewed. The dataset was split into training and test sets (n = 144/79). Clinical features included age, sex, smoking status, pack-years, BMI, ECOG PS, COPD, tumor location, delivered dose, RT technique, chemotherapy agent and volume of GTVp/GTVn. A total of 228 dosimetric features from the heart, contralateral/ipsilateral lung and lungs-IGTV were extracted, including the minimum/mean dose to the hottest x% volume (Dx%[Gy]/MOHx%[Gy]; x was 5-95 in 5% increments) and minimum/mean/maximum dose and percent volume receiving at least xGy (VxGy [%]; x was 5-60 in 5Gy increments), as well as the overlapping volume of each structure with PTV and the distance from each structure to GTVp/GTVn. Feature selection was performed using Boruta, followed by collinearity removal based on the variance inflation factor. The explainable boosting machine (EBM) was trained on the selected features. The performance of EBM on the test set was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and compared with that of blackbox (BB) models, including extreme gradient boosting (XGB), random forest (RF), and supporting vector machine (SVM). The global explanation of each feature's contribution to the predictions provided by the EBM was used to determine DVC. Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) were used to explain BB predictions. RESULTS Selected features, ranked in order of EBM's overall feature importance, were V25Gy [%] and MOH65%[Gy] in the ipsilateral lung, the maximum dose in the heart, MOH30%[Gy] in the contralateral lung, and BMI. No dosimetric features in the lungs-IGTV were selected. The SHAP values of three BB models showed similar trends to the feature importance of the EBM. The global explanations of the EBM suggested that to mitigate the risk of pneumonitis, the ipsilateral lung should have V25Gy [%] < 36.8% and MOH65%[Gy] < 39.5Gy, and the heart should have D0.03cc [Gy] < 66.0Gy. Furthermore, an increased risk of pneumonitis was indicated with an increase in BMI, and, surprisingly, a decrease in MOH30%[Gy] in the contralateral lung. The EBM showed the best performance for predicting grade 2+ pneumonitis (AUC = 0.739), followed by RF, SVM, and XGB (AUC = 0.735, 0.733, and 0.717). CONCLUSION EBM has the potential to predict grade 2+ pneumonitis in LA-NSCLC patients treated with CRT and ICI, while providing guidance on DVC.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) To assess the association of cardiac dose with post-cCRT cardiac events and survival among patients (pts) with LA-NSCLC after adoption of ICI consolidation, modern radiotherapy (RT) techniques, and data-driven cardiac constraints. MATERIALS/METHODS This single-institution, multi-site retrospective study included 335 pts with LA-NSCLC treated with definitive cCRT (60-70 Gy) from October 2017 to December 2021. Pts were evaluated for ICI consolidation. Cardiac dose constraints included heart volume receiving ≥50 Gy (V50) <25% and mean heart dose (MHD) <20 Gy. Heart, left anterior descending artery (LAD), and left ventricle were autocontoured, manually reviewed, and edited. 21 dosimetric parameters (mean dose, max dose, and min dose to the hottest x% volume [Dx%(Gy); x from 5-95 in 5% intervals]) for each were extracted, as well as LAD V15. Baseline cardiovascular disease (bCVD) was defined as heart failure (HF), coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease, or cerebrovascular disease. Primary endpoint was post-cCRT major adverse cardiac events (MACE), defined as acute coronary syndrome, HF hospitalization/urgent visit, coronary revascularization, or cardiac death. Secondary endpoints were grade ≥3 cardiac events (CTCAE v5.0), overall survival (OS), cancer specific mortality (CSM), and other cause mortality (OCM). Competing risk regression was used for MACE and grade ≥3 cardiac events, and Cox regression for OS, CSM, and OCM. RESULTS Median age was 68 years, 139 (41%) had bCVD, and 225 (67%) received consolidation ICI. Proton therapy was used in 117 (35%), intensity-modulated RT in 199 (59%), and 3D conformal RT in 19 (6%). Median MHD was 8.7 Gy (IQR 4.6-14.4) and median LAD V15 1.4% (IQR 0-22). Median follow-up was 39.5 months. 35 MACE events occurred; 1- and 2-year cumulative incidence (CI) were 4.2% and 9.5%. No cardiac dosimetric parameter associated with MACE after adjusting for bCVD and age (e.g., MHD sHR 0.98/Gy, 95% CI 0.93-1.03, p = 0.43) or within the following 3 subgroups: no bCVD, photon therapy, and ICI consolidation. 87 grade ≥3 cardiac events occurred; 1- and 2- year CI were 12.6% and 20.4%. Heart dose was not associated with grade ≥3 cardiac events after adjusting for bCVD, ECOG, and BMI (e.g., MHD sHR 1.00/Gy, 95% CI 0.97-1.03, p = 0.85) or within the 3 aforesaid subgroups. 183 OS events occurred, including 125 CSM and 58 OCM events. Multiple cardiac dosimetric parameters associated with worse OS on multivariable analysis (e.g., LAD V15 HR 1.01/%, 95% CI 1.00-1.02, p = 0.003), driven by associations with CSM (LAD V15 HR 1.02/%, p<0.001) but not OCM (LAD V15 HR 1.00/%, p = 0.73). Median OS was worse for LAD V15 ≥10% (22.2 vs 35.1 months, p = 0.004). CONCLUSION Among pts with LA-NSCLC treated with cCRT after adoption of ICI consolidation, modern RT techniques, and cardiac constraints, post-cCRT cardiac events were common but showed no association with cardiac dose. Cardiac dose associated with OS, driven by an association with CSM and not OCM, which may not reflect cardiac toxicity.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Prior methods model the risk of endpoints separately. Herein, we construct a composite AI model that considers multiple endpoints jointly, including overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and death without progression (DWP). Our hypothesis is that the composite model potentially improves predictive performance for patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LANSCLC) treated with chemoradiotherapy (CRT). MATERIALS/METHODS A total of 335 LANSCLC patients treated with definitive CRT, including all evaluable patients accrued from Oct 2017 to Dec 2021, were randomly split into training/test subsets (n = 234/101). Cardio-pulmonary substructures (CPSs) were autocontoured, manually reviewed, and edited if necessary. A total of 1093 non-independent dosimetric parameters were extracted, including GTVp, GTVn, GTV, PTV, esophagus, lungs minus IGTV, left/right lung, 15 CPSs, and the overlapping volume of each OAR with PTV and the distance from each OAR to GTVp/GTVn. Other clinical parameters included age, consolidation immunotherapy (CI), ECOG score, Charlson comorbidity index, coronary heart disease, histology, PD-L1 expression, and clinical stage (AJCC 8). Within training, censored time-to-event data were imputed based on conditional event distributions derived from Kaplan-Meier estimators for casting survival analysis as a regression problem and training neural additive model (NAM) regressors. Features were selected by LASSO regression for a single endpoint (OS, PFS, DWP) and multi-task (MT) LASSO regression for four separate composite endpoints (OS-PFS, OS-DWP, PFS-DWP, OS-PFS-DWP). The performance of MT NAMs in the test set that jointly predicted the composite endpoints was evaluated using the C-index and compared to that of a single task (ST) NAM that predicted each endpoint separately. RESULTS The best testing performance in predicting OS and DWP was attained by the MT NAM that jointly predicted all endpoints (c-index = 0.65, 95% CI 0.58-0.71 for OS; c-index = 0.78, 95% CI 0.69-0.87 for DWP). The best model to predict PFS was also MT between PFS and DWP (c-index = 0.59, 95% CI 0.52-0.65). The c-indices of all ST NAMs were less than 0.56. The best MT NAMs significantly outperformed ST NAMs in predicting OS (p = 0.001) and DWP (p = 0.01) except for PFS (p = 0.32). The best MT NAM in predicting OS and DWP included ECOG score, atria-PTV overlap volume, D75% [Gy] to the left atrium (LA), pulmonary arterial volume, histology (adenocarcinoma), D65% [Gy] to the descending aorta (DA), V10 Gy [%] of the LA and CI in order of overall importance. ECOG score consistently ranked as the most important feature for all four MT NAMs. An increase of ECOG score from 0 to 2 indicated a 6-month earlier risk of mortality and DWP. Atria-PTV overlap volume and D65% [Gy] to the DA were included in all four MT NAMs. CONCLUSION MT AI models improved outcome prediction in patients with LANSCLC treated with CRT by jointly learning commonalities between the primary and auxiliary endpoints.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Radiation esophagitis is a common adverse event that may occur during chemoradiotherapy (CRT) that can adversely affect survival. This study aimed to develop interpretable machine learning (ML) models to predict grade 3 and higher radiation esophagitis in patients receiving definitive CRT therapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC). MATERIALS/METHODS A total of 335 patients with LA-NSCLC who received definitive concurrent CRT at a single institution from 2017 to 2021 were retrospectively identified. Patients with esophagitis were identified and graded according to CTCAE v5.0. For each patient, 31 clinical features and 1093 dose-volume histogram (DVH) parameters from 19 structures were collected. The data was then randomly split into training (n = 233) and testing (n = 102) datasets. Feature selection was performed on the training dataset using the minimum redundancy maximum relevance algorithm to find a set of relevant features while controlling for the redundancy within the selected features, which were then followed by the Boruta algorithm to remove unimportant features and make the ML model more accurate. Synthetic minority oversampling technique was used to handle class-imbalanced datasets by generating synthetic samples for the minority class. Four variants of the Generalized Additive Model (GAM), including Explainable Boosting Machine (EBM), neural GAM (NODE-GAM), eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGB)-GAM, and Spline, were built with selected features. The models' performance in predicting esophagitis was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) in the test dataset. Shape plots were used to interpret the models' output and explain the selected features' contribution to the prediction. RESULTS NODE-GAM yielded the highest performance (F1 score = 0.57, accuracy = 0.8, and AUC = 0.837), followed by EBM (F1 score = 0.43, accuracy = 0.8, and AUC = 0.7), Spline (F1 score = 0.42, accuracy = 0.74, and AUC = 0.737), and XGB-GAM (F1 score = 0.42, accuracy = 0.76, and AUC = 0.71). Selected features included D95%[Gy], D90%[Gy], D65%[Gy] and V40Gy [%] for the esophagus, V10Gy [%] for the pulmonary artery, and the distance from GTVn to the ascending aorta. The analysis of the selected features indicated that an increased radiation dose delivered to the esophagus and a shorter distance between the ascending aorta and GTVn were associated with a higher risk of developing esophagitis. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrates the feasibility of developing interpretable ML models to predict esophagitis in patients with LA-NSCLC patients treated with CRT. NODE-GAM provided the best accuracy while providing insights into the driving dosimetric factors that could be used to guide optimal RT planning.

Abstract
1. The caecal microbiota in geese play a crucial role in determining the host's health, disease status and behaviour, as evidenced by extensive epidemiological data. The present investigation conducted 10× metagenomic sequencing of caecal content samples obtained from three distinct goose species, namely Landes geese, Roman geese and Zhedong White geese (n = 5), to explore the contribution of the gut microbiome to carbohydrate metabolism.2. In total, 337GB of Illumina data were generated, which identified 1,048,575 complete genes and construction of 331 metagenomic bins, encompassing 78 species from nine phyla. Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria and Bacteria were identified as the dominant phyla while Prevotella, Bacteroides, Streptococcus, and Subdoligranulum were the most abundant genera in the caecum of geese.3. The genes were allocated to 375 pathways using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome (KEGG) analysis. The most abundant classes in the caecum of geese were confirmed to be glycoside hydrolases (GHs), glycosyl transferases (GTs), as identified through the carbohydrate-active enzyme (CAZyme) database mapping. Subdoligranulum variabile and Mediterraneibacter glycyrrhizinilyticus were discovered to potentially facilitate carbohydrate digestion in geese.4. Notwithstanding, further investigation and validation are required to establish a connection between these species and CAZymes. Based on binning analysis, Mediterraneibacter glycyrrhizinilyticus and Ruminococcus sp. CAG:177 are potential species in LD geese that contribute to the production of fatty liver.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The emergence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) is a major clinical concern, and polymyxin B (PMB) is a 'last resort' antibiotic for its treatment. Understanding the effects of drug susceptibility transformation in CRKP-infected patients undergoing PMB treatment would be beneficial to optimize PMB treatment strategies. METHODS We retrospectively collected data from patients infected with CRKP and treated with PMB from January 2018 to December 2020. CRKPs were collected before and after PMB therapy, and patients were classified into the 'transformation' group (TG) and 'non-transformation' group (NTG) by the shift of susceptibility to PMB. We compared clinical characteristics between these groups, and further analysed the phenotypic and genome variation of CRKP after PMB susceptibility transformation. RESULTS A total of 160 patients (37 in the TG and 123 in the NTG) were included in this study. The duration of PMB treatment before PMB-resistant K. pneumoniae (PRKP) appearance in TG was even longer than the whole duration of PMB treatment in NTG (8 [8] vs. 7 [6] days; p 0.0496). Compared with isogenic PMB-susceptible K. pneumoniae (PSKP), most PRKP strains had missense mutations in mgrB (12 isolates), yciC (10 isolates) and pmrB (7 isolates). The competition index of 82.4% (28/34) of PRKP/PSKP pairs was <67.6% (23/34), and 73.5% (25/34) of PRKP strains showed a higher 7-day lethality in Galleria mellonella and a greater ability to resist complement-dependent killing than their corresponding PSKP, respectively. CONCLUSION Low dose with longer PMB treatment durations may be associated with the emergence of polymyxin resistance. The evolution of PRKP is predominantly mediated by an accumulation of mutations, including those in mgrB, yciC, and pmrB. Lastly, PRKP exhibited reduced growth and increased virulence compared with parental PSKP.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Patients (pts) with LA-NSCLC treated with concurrent chemoradiation (cCRT) and ICI consolidation are at high risk for treatment-related toxicities and subsequent hospitalization. We hypothesized that PBT is associated with a reduction in acute unplanned hospitalizations as compared to IMRT in the era of ICI consolidation. MATERIALS/METHODS This single institution, multi-site retrospective study included consecutive pts with LA-NSCLC treated with definitive cCRT with either PBT or IMRT from October 2017 to December 2021. Pts were evaluated for consolidative ICI. Primary endpoint was unplanned treatment-related hospitalization within 90 days of first radiation (RT) treatment. Secondary endpoints included grade 3+ pneumonitis, grade 3+ esophagitis, PFS and OS. Logistic regression was used to assess associations with 90-day hospitalization. Competing risk regression was used for grade 3+ pneumonitis and esophagitis, and Cox regression for PFS and OS. RESULTS A total of 316 pts were included: 117 (37%) received PBT and 199 (63%) IMRT. Median age was 68.5 yrs; median RT dose 66.6 Gy (IQR 65.9-70.0). PBT group was older (median 71.1 vs 67.2 yrs, p<0.005) and had a higher Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) (median 4 vs 3, p = 0.02). There was no significant difference in ECOG, smoking pack-years, T stage, N stage, target volume size, or receipt of ICI consolidation (66.7% vs 68.3%, p = 0.76). PBT group had lower mean heart dose (5.9 vs 10.8 Gy, p<0.001), LAD V15 (0 vs 6 %, p = 0.001), mean lung dose (14.7 vs 15.7 Gy, p <0.008) and effective dose to immune circulating cells (median 3.7 vs 4.9 Gy, p<0.001) but not mean esophagus dose. PBT was associated with fewer unplanned 90-day hospitalizations (23.9% vs 34.7%); which persisted on multivariable analysis (OR 0.52, 95% CI 0.30-0.90, p = 0.02) after adjusting for CCI, smoking pack-years, T4 tumors and target volume. Reasons for hospitalization in PBT and IMRT groups included progression (1.7% vs 1.5%), definite/probable toxicity from cCRT (11.1% vs 18.6%), possible toxicity from cCRT (7.7% vs 12.6%) or unrelated to cCRT (3.4% vs 2.0%). There was no significant difference between PBT or IMRT groups in G3+ pneumonitis (1-year 6.0% vs 9.1%, p = 0.49), G3+ esophagitis (1-year 6.0% vs 6.5%, p = 0.71), PFS (median 14.4 vs 15.1 months, p = 0.69), or OS (median 34.2 vs 29.4 months, p = 0.41). CONCLUSION Among pts with LA-NSCLC treated with cCRT in the era of ICI consolidation, PBT was associated with fewer acute unplanned hospitalizations compared to IMRT. There was no difference in G3+ pneumonitis, G3+ esophagitis, PFS or OS.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) For patients (pts) with LA-NSCLC treated with chemoradiation and consolidation ICI (CRT+ICI), the patterns of failure (POF) and volume of disease progression (PD) are not well characterized. The primary objective of this study was to classify POFs, the frequency of low volume relapse (LVR), and identify pts eligible for further ablative therapy. MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively identified pts with unresectable stage III NSCLC treated with CRT+ICI between October 2017 and December 2021 at a single institution. Site of first failure was classified as locoregional (LRF), distant (DF), or synchronous LRF + DF. Any LRF was subclassified as in field (IFF; PD within 90% isodose line), marginal (MF; within 50% isodose line) or out of field (OOF; outside of 50% isodose line). LVR was defined as < 3 discrete sites of PD in any number or location of organs. Pts with distant LVR were considered to have oligometastatic relapse. Ablative candidates were defined as pts with < 3 discrete sites of PD amenable to further RT or surgery. Cumulative incidence of PD was calculated with death as a competing risk. Progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated from the end of RT and assessed via Kaplan Meier. Multivariable Cox modeling was used to assess correlation of pt characteristics and time-to-event outcomes. Logistic regression was used to predict variables associated with LVR. RESULTS A total of 229 pts received CRT+ICI. Median follow up was 39 months and 119 pts experienced PD. Median PFS and OS were 18.4 and 34.5 months, respectively. Of pts with PD, 71 (60%) had DF, 28 (24%) had LRF+DF, and 20 (17%) had LRF. Of pts with any LRF, 28 (57%) had IFF, 10 (21%) had MF, and 10 (21%) had OOF. Estimated 1-year cumulative incidence of LRF, DF, and LRF+DF were 9.3% (95% CI 4.5-16), 39% (95% CI 31-48), and 19% (95% CI 12-27), respectively. A total of 63 (53%) pts had LVR. In pts with LVR, 19 (30%) had isolated thoracic relapse and 44 (69%) had oligometastatic relapse. Most oligometastatic disease was intracranial (22 metastases, 44%). Pts with LVR had a longer median OS vs pts with high volume relapse (37.4 vs 15.2 months, p<0.001). At time of PD, 56 (47%) pts were candidates for further ablative therapies. Subsequent anticancer therapies were local therapy alone (35%), local and systemic therapy (16%), systemic therapy alone (36%), or no therapy (13%). On multivariable analysis, LVR (HR 0.39; 95% CI 0.21-0.73, p = 0.003) and longer receipt of ICI (HR 0.96; 95% CI 0.95-0.98; p<0.001) were associated with improved survival while squamous histology (HR 2.26; 95% CI 1.18-4.32; p = 0.039) was associated with worse survival. Longer receipt of ICI was the only variable predictive for the development of LVR (OR 1.03; 95% CI 1.01-1.05; p = 0.004). CONCLUSION This is the largest real-world series reporting POF after CRT+ICI for stage III NSCLC. Approximately half of pts experience LVR and are candidates for further ablative therapy. Further data are needed to define optimal treatment strategies for pts with LVR after CRT+ICI.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) There is a critical need for large-scale, multi-institutional "real-world" data to evaluate patient, diagnosis and treatment factors affecting oncology patient outcomes. However, lack of data standardization undermines the potential for automated learning from the vast amount of information routinely archived in electronic health records (EHRs), Radiation Oncology Information Systems and other cancer care databases. As next step to promote data standardization beyond the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM)'s TG-263 guidance for radiotherapy (RT) nomenclature, the AAPM's Big Data Subcommittee (BDSC) has led an international RT professional society collaboration to develop the Operational Ontology for Radiation Oncology (OORO). MATERIALS/METHODS Initiated July 2019 to explore issues that typically compromise formation of large inter- and intra- institutional databases from EHRs, the AAPM's BDSC membership includes representatives from the AAPM, American Society of Radiation Oncology (ASTRO), Canadian Organization of Medical Physicists (COMP), Canadian Association of Radiation Oncology (CARO), European Society of Therapeutic Radiation Oncology (ESTRO) and clinical trials experts from NRG Oncology. Multiple external stakeholders were engaged, including government agencies, vendors and RT community members through the iterative and consensus-driven approach to OORO development. RESULTS The OORO includes 42 key elements, 359 attributes, 144 value sets, and 155 relationships, ranked for priority of implementation based on clinical significance, likelihood of availability in EHRs, or ability to modify routine clinical processes to permit aggregation. The initial version of OORO includes many disease-site independent concepts common for all cancer patients and a smaller set specific for prostate cancer. The OORO development methodology is currently being applied/adapted to include additional disease site-specific concepts beginning with head and neck cancers. CONCLUSION The first of its kind in radiation oncology, the OORO is a professional society-based, multi-stakeholder, consensus driven informatics standard. The iterative and collaborative approach to ontology development and refinement aims to ensure that OORO serves as a « living » guidance document, facilitating incremental expansion of data elements over time, as disease site-specific standards are set and RT concepts evolve. Supporting construction of comprehensive "real-world" datasets and application of advanced analytic techniques, including artificial intelligence (AI), OORO holds the potential to revolutionize patient management and improve outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE The processing of the round ligament of uterus in laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) repair of inguinal hernia in women has contended. This study aimed to explore whether there is any difference in the surgical outcome and postoperative complications between the two processing modalities, preservation, and transection of the round ligament of uterus, in adult female inguinal hernia patients undergoing TAPP. METHODS Retrospective analysis of 84 female patients (117 sides) who underwent TAPP in XXX Hospital from July 2013 to August 2022. Patient characteristics and technical details of the surgical procedure were collected and divided into two groups according to whether the round ligament of uterus was severed intraoperatively or not. There were 52 cases (77 sides) in the group with preservation of the round ligament of uterus and 32 cases (40 sides) in the group with transection of the round ligament of uterus, comparing the general condition, surgical condition, and the occurrence of postoperative related complications between the 2 groups. RESULTS The operative time for unilateral primary inguinal hernia was (129.2 ± 35.1) and (89.5 ± 42.6) minutes in the preservation and transection groups, respectively. There were no statistical differences between the two groups in terms of age, length of hospital stay, ASA, BMI, history of lower abdominal surgery, type and side of hernia, intraoperative bleeding, and time to surgery for primary bilateral hernia (P > 0.05). In addition, there was likewise no statistical difference in the occurrence of postoperative Clavien-Dindo classification, VAS, seroma, mesh infection, labia majora edema, chronic pain or abnormal sensation in the inguinal region, and hernia recurrence in the two groups as well (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION There is no evidence that the transection of the round ligament of the uterus during TAPP has an impact on postoperative complications in patients. However, given the important role of the uterine round ligament in the surgical management of patients with uterine prolapse and the high incidence of uterine prolapse in older women, hernia surgeons should also be aware of the need to protect the round ligament of uterus in older women.

Abstract
Beet webworms, Loxostege sticticalis L. (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), are one of the most destructive pest insects in northern China, and their populations outbreak periodically. Developing an indicator that defines the ending and beginning of the occurrence period cycle is urgent for the population forecast and theoretical study. The sex ratio can be a primary pathway through which species regulate population size. We measured the maximum mating potential of both females and males and the population net reproductive rate under different sex ratios (e.g., 3:1, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3). The maximum mating frequency of males was 2.91 times that of females. The progeny contribution per mating decreased with increased mating times in males. The variation in population net reproductive rate affected by the sex ratio fits the parabolic curve analysis and peaked at 1.82 for females vs. males. Our results illustrate the quantitative connection phenomenon shown by the historical data: population outbreaks occur at a sex ratio of two or more and collapse at a sex rate lower than one. Simultaneously, the sex ratio may be utilized as a definite indicator for the beginning and end of the future occurrence cycle in the beet webworm.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify the spatial distribution pattern of Oncomelania hupensis spread in Hubei Province, so as to provide insights into precision O. hupensis snail control in the province. METHODS Data pertaining to emerging and reemerging snails were collected from Hubei Province from 2020 to 2022 to build a spatial database of O. hupensis snail spread. The spatial clustering of O. hupensis snail spread was identified using global and local spatial autocorrelation analyses, and the hot spots of snail spread were identified using kernel density estimation. In addition, the correlation between environments with snail spread and the distance from the Yangtze River was evaluated using nearest-neighbor analysis and Spearman correlation analysis. RESULTS O. hupensis snail spread mainly occurred along the Yangtze River and Jianghan Plain in Hubei Province from 2020 to 2022, with a total spread area of 4 320.63 hm2, including 1 230.77 hm2 emerging snail habitats and 3 089.87 hm2 reemerging snail habitats. Global spatial autocorrelation analysis showed spatial autocorrelation in the O. hupensis snail spread in Hubei Province in 2020 and 2021, appearing a spatial clustering pattern (Moran's I = 0.003 593 and 0.060 973, both P values < 0.05), and the mean density of spread snails showed spatial aggregation in Hubei Province in 2020 (Moran's I = 0.512 856, P < 0.05). Local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that the high-high clustering areas of spread snails were mainly distributed in 50 settings of 10 counties (districts) in Hubei Province from 2020 to 2022, and the high-high clustering areas of the mean density of spread snails were predominantly found in 219 snail habitats in four counties of Jiangling, Honghu, Yangxin and Gong'an. Kernel density estimation showed that there were high-, secondary high- and medium-density hot spots in snail spread areas in Hubei Province from 2020 to 2022, which were distributed in Jingzhou District, Wuxue District, Honghu County and Huangzhou District, respectively. There were high- and medium-density hot spots in the mean density of spread snails, which were located in Jiangling County, Honghu County and Yangxin County, respectively. In addition, the snail spread areas negatively correlated with the distance from the Yangtze River (r = -0.108 9, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS There was spatial clustering of O. hupensis snail spread in Hubei Province from 2020 to 2022. The monitoring and control of O. hupensis snails require to be reinforced in the clustering areas, notably in inner embankments to prevent reemerging schistosomiasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus is primarily due to the mecA gene found in highly diverse staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) elements, with an increasing number of variants being continually discovered. OBJECTIVES To characterize two novel SCCmec variants identified in clonal complex (CC) 398 strains and lineage-specific pseudo-SCCmec elements in the ST88 clone. METHODS WGS and comparative genomic analysis were used to elucidate the SCCmec element diversity of representative isolates. RESULTS The non-typeable 47 kb SCCmec found in the CC398 strain SKLX55795 represents a novel subtype of XIV, showing significant differences in structural organization and genetic content within the joining regions compared with the XIV element from the prototype strain SC792. This unique subtype comprised remnants from various mobile genetic elements that encode antimicrobial resistance genes, ultimately forming a large MDR region. Genome analysis of CC398 strain SKLX61416 revealed the presence of a novel 50 kb composite SCCmec with two distinct domains, carrying the ccr gene complexes 5/8 and containing genes for the detoxification of arsenic and sulphide. Further sequence analysis disclosed that 44.23% (23/52) of ST88 strains in our collection carried a lineage-specific pseudo-SCCmec, termed ΨSCCmecST88. This ΨSCCmecST88 harboured the mec gene complex C2, along with a series of genes associated with heavy metal resistance, but lacked an approximately 28 kb region encompassing the ccr gene complex. CONCLUSIONS Our findings provide evidence for the ongoing evolution of SCCmec elements within the CC398 and ST88 clones, underscoring the need for further surveillance to understand the biological significance of these elements.

Abstract
Objective: To examine a predictive model that incorporating high risk pathological factors for the prognosis of stage Ⅰ to Ⅲ colon cancer. Methods: This study retrospectively collected clinicopathological information and survival outcomes of stage Ⅰ~Ⅲ colon cancer patients who underwent curative surgery in 7 tertiary hospitals in China from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2017. A total of 1 650 patients were enrolled, aged (M(IQR)) 62 (18) years (range: 14 to 100). There were 963 males and 687 females. The median follow-up period was 51 months. The Cox proportional hazardous regression model was utilized to select high-risk pathological factors, establish the nomogram and scoring system. The Bootstrap resampling method was utilized for internal validation of the model, the concordance index (C-index) was used to assess discrimination and calibration curves were presented to assess model calibration. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curves after risk grouping, and Cox regression was used to compare disease-free survival between subgroups. Results: Age (HR=1.020, 95%CI: 1.008 to 1.033, P=0.001), T stage (T3:HR=1.995,95%CI:1.062 to 3.750,P=0.032;T4:HR=4.196, 95%CI: 2.188 to 8.045, P<0.01), N stage (N1: HR=1.834, 95%CI: 1.307 to 2.574, P<0.01; N2: HR=3.970, 95%CI: 2.724 to 5.787, P<0.01) and number of lymph nodes examined (≥36: HR=0.438, 95%CI: 0.242 to 0.790, P=0.006) were independently associated with disease-free survival. The C-index of the scoring model (model 1) based on age, T stage, N stage, and dichotomous variables of the lymph nodes examined (<12 and ≥12) was 0.723, and the C-index of the scoring model (model 2) based on age, T stage, N stage, and multi-categorical variables of the lymph nodes examined (<12, 12 to <24, 24 to <36, and ≥36) was 0.726. A scoring system was established based on age, T stage, N stage, and multi-categorical variables of lymph nodes examined, the 3-year DFS of the low-risk (≤1), middle-risk (2 to 4) and high-risk (≥5) group were 96.3% (n=711), 89.0% (n=626) and 71.4% (n=313), respectively. Statistically significant difference was observed among groups (P<0.01). Conclusions: The number of lymph nodes examined was an independent prognostic factor for disease-free survival after curative surgery in patients with stage Ⅰ to Ⅲ colon cancer. Incorporating the number of lymph nodes examined as a multi-categorical variable into the T and N staging system could improve prognostic predictive validity.

Abstract
To evaluate the urate-lowering effect and potential drug targets of antihypertensive agent allisartan isoproxil (ALI) and its bioactive metabolite EXP3174, we developed an acute hyperuricemic zebrafish model using potassium oxonate and xanthine sodium salt. Losartan potassium served as the positive control (reference drug). In this model, ALI and losartan potassium exerted a greater urate-lowering effect than EXP3174 indicating that the latter is not the critical substance for elimination of uric acid. The quantitative real-time PCR showed that ALI upregulates the expression of intestinal urate transporters genes ABCG2, PDZK1, and SLC2A9 (p<0.01). Thus, we can suggest that this substance promotes uric acid excretion mainly by interacting with intestinal urate transporters.

Abstract
Objectives: To analyze the influencing factors of No. 253 lymph node metastasis in descending colon cancer, sigmoid colon cancer, and rectal cancer, and to investigate the prognosis of No. 253 lymph node-positive patients by propensity score matching analysis. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data from patients with descending colon cancer, sigmoid colon cancer, rectosigmoid junction cancer, and rectal cancer who underwent surgery between January 2015 and December 2019 from the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, China-Japan Friendship Hospital, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, General Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, and Peking University Cancer Hospital. A total of 3 016 patients were included according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, comprising 1 848 males and 1 168 females, with 1 675 patients aged≥60 years and 1 341 patients aged<60 years. Clinical and pathological factors from single center data were subjected to univariate analysis to determine influencing factors of No. 253 lymph node metastasis, using a binary Logistic regression model. Based on the results of the multivariate analysis, a nomogram was constructed. External validation was performed using data from other multicenter sources, evaluating the effectiveness through the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and the calibration curve. Using data from a single center, the No. 253 lymph node-positive group was matched with the negative group in a 1∶2 ratio (caliper value=0.05). Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank test. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to determine independent prognostic factors. Results: (1) The tumor diameter≥5 cm (OR=4.496,95%CI:1.344 to 15.035, P=0.015) T stage (T4 vs. T1: OR=11.284, 95%CI:7.122 to 15.646, P<0.01), N stage (N2 vs. N0: OR=60.554, 95%CI:7.813 to 469.055, P=0.043), tumor differentiation (moderate vs. well differentiated: OR=1.044, 95%CI:1.009 to 1.203, P=0.044; poor vs. well differentiated: OR=1.013, 95%CI:1.002 to 1.081, P=0.013), tumor location (sigmoid colon vs. descending colon: OR=9.307, 95%CI:2.236 to 38.740, P=0.002), pathological type (mucinous adenocarcinoma vs. adenocarcinoma: OR=79.923, 95%CI:15.113 to 422.654, P<0.01; signet ring cell carcinoma vs. adenocarcinoma: OR=27.309, 95%CI:4.191 to 177.944, P<0.01), and positive vascular invasion (OR=3.490, 95%CI:1.033 to 11.793, P=0.044) were independent influencing factors of No. 253 lymph node metastasis. (2) The area under the curve of the nomogram prediction model was 0.912 (95%CI: 0.869 to 0.955) for the training set and 0.921 (95%CI: 0.903 to 0.937) for the external validation set. The calibration curve demonstrated good consistency between the predicted outcomes and the actual observations. (3) After propensity score matching, the No. 253 lymph node-negative group did not reach the median overall survival time, while the positive group had a median overall survival of 20 months. The 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival rates were 83.9%, 61.3% and 51.6% in the negative group, and 63.2%, 36.8% and 15.8% in the positive group, respectively. Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that the T4 stage (HR=3.067, 95%CI: 2.357 to 3.990, P<0.01), the N2 stage (HR=1.221, 95%CI: 0.979 to 1.523, P=0.043), and No. 253 lymph node positivity (HR=2.902, 95%CI:1.987 to 4.237, P<0.01) were independent adverse prognostic factors. Conclusions: Tumor diameter ≥5 cm, T4 stage, N2 stage, tumor location in the sigmoid colon, adverse pathological type, poor differentiation, and vascular invasion are influencing factors of No. 253 lymph node metastasis. No. 253 lymph node positivity indicates a poorer prognosis. Therefore, strict dissection for No. 253 lymph node should be performed for colorectal cancer patients with these high-risk factors.

Abstract
Objectives: To investigate the factors influencing the height of anterior peritoneal reflection (APR) for patients with rectal cancer, and to analyze the relationship between the APR and the lateral lymph node metastasis. Methods: Clinical data of 432 patients with tumor located within and below APR were retrospectively collected from the rectal cancer database at the Department of General Surgery, Peking Union Medical College Hospital from August 2020 to September 2022. Ninty-eight non-rectal cancer patients were also enrolled as a control group. There were 308 males and 124 females in the tumor group, aged (M(IQR)) 62 (16) years (range: 24 to 85 years) and 53 males and 45 females in the control group, aged 60 (22) years (range: 27 to 87 years). The APR height, pelvis, and tumor-related parameters were measured by MRI. A multifactor linear regression model was established to analyze the dependent correlation factors of APR height. These factors of the two groups were matched by propensity score matching and their APR heights were compared after matching. An ordinal Logistic regression model was established to explore the relationship between APR-related parameters and radiographic lateral lymph node metastasis. Results: The APR height of the tumor group was (98.7±14.4) mm (range: 43.3 to 154.0 mm) and the control group was (95.1±12.7) mm (range: 68.0 to 137.9 mm). Multivariable linear regression revealed that the greater the weight (B=0.519, 95%CI: 0.399 to 0.640, P<0.01), the anterior pelvic depth (B=0.109, 95%CI: 0.005 to 0.213, P=0.039) and the smaller the bi-ischial diameter (B=-0.172, 95%CI:-0.294 to -0.049, P=0.006), the higher the APR height. The tumor group had a higher APR height than the control group after propensity score matching ((98.3±14.2) mm vs. (95.1±12.7) mm, t=-1.992, P=0.047). Ordinal Logistic regression indicated that the longer segment of the tumor invade the nonperitoneal rectum was an independent influencing factor of radiographic lateral lymph node metastasis (OR=1.016, 95%CI: 1.002 to 1.030, P=0.021), while the distance between the anal verge and the tumor was not (OR=0.986, 95%CI: 0.972 to 1.000, P=0.058). Conclusions: The higher the weight, the deeper and narrower the pelvis, the higher the APR height. There is a certain relationship between APR and lateral lymph node metastasis on imaging.

Abstract
Background: Antimicrobial resistance surveillance is essential for empiric antibiotic prescribing, infection prevention and control policies and to drive novel antibiotic discovery. However, most existing surveillance systems are isolate-based without supporting patient-based clinical data, and not widely implemented especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Methods: A Clinically-Oriented Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Network (ACORN) II is a large-scale multicentre protocol which builds on the WHO Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System to estimate syndromic and pathogen outcomes along with associated health economic costs. ACORN-healthcare associated infection (ACORN-HAI) is an extension study which focuses on healthcare-associated bloodstream infections and ventilator-associated pneumonia. Our main aim is to implement an efficient clinically-oriented antimicrobial resistance surveillance system, which can be incorporated as part of routine workflow in hospitals in LMICs. These surveillance systems include hospitalised patients of any age with clinically compatible acute community-acquired or healthcare-associated bacterial infection syndromes, and who were prescribed parenteral antibiotics. Diagnostic stewardship activities will be implemented to optimise microbiology culture specimen collection practices. Basic patient characteristics, clinician diagnosis, empiric treatment, infection severity and risk factors for HAI are recorded on enrolment and during 28-day follow-up. An R Shiny application can be used offline and online for merging clinical and microbiology data, and generating collated reports to inform local antibiotic stewardship and infection control policies. Discussion: ACORN II is a comprehensive antimicrobial resistance surveillance activity which advocates pragmatic implementation and prioritises improving local diagnostic and antibiotic prescribing practices through patient-centred data collection. These data can be rapidly communicated to local physicians and infection prevention and control teams. Relative ease of data collection promotes sustainability and maximises participation and scalability. With ACORN-HAI as an example, ACORN II has the capacity to accommodate extensions to investigate further specific questions of interest.

Abstract
Objective: A higher incidence of atrial fibrillation is associated with obstructive sleep apnea. The effects of continuous positive airway pressure on atrial fibrillation have been studied in observational studies and randomized controlled trials. We therefore conducted this meta-analysis to assess the effect of continuous positive airway pressure on the recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted in Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane, Web of Science, Wanfang Data and CNKI databases from inception to October 2022. We included cohort studies and randomized controlled trials containing atrial fibrillation situation after catheter ablation with and without continuous positive airway pressure therapy. The random effects model was used to assess odds ratios (OR) and confidence intervals (CI). I2 was used to assess the heterogeneity. Results: Eight studies with a total of 1 395 patients with obstructive sleep apnea met the inclusion criteria. Continuous positive airway pressure therapy decreased atrial fibrillation recurrence by 61% (OR=0.392, 95%CI: 0.267-0.576, I2=37.6%). Subgroup analysis showed that the protective effect was more significant in groups with more hypertension patients (OR=0.272 vs. 0.550, 95%CI: 0.165-0.449 vs. 0.329-0.922). Conclusions: Continuous positive airway pressure therapy reduces the recurrence rate of atrial fibrillation. Patients with hypertension are more likely to benefit from it.
