ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the distribution of pathogenic bacteria of bloodstream infection after chemotherapy in patients with acute leukemia (AL), to analyze the risk factors for the occurrence of adverse events and to construct a nomogram model to predict the occurrence of adverse events.Methods:The clinical data of 313 AL patients with bloodstream infection who were admitted to the First Hospital of Jilin University from January 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, and the incidence, fatality and distribution characteristics of pathogenic bacteria after chemotherapy in AL patients were analyzed; the occurrence of adverse events (death or infectious shock) in patients with different clinicopathological characteristics were compared. Unconditional logistic binary regression model multifactor analysis was used to screen independent risk factors for the occurrence of adverse events in AL patients with bloodstream infection after chemotherapy; the nomogram model for predicting the occurrence of adverse events was developed by using R software; the Hosmer-Lemeshow test was used to verify the predictive effect of the model.Results:Of the 313 AL patients, the overall fatality rate was 4.2% (13/313), the all-cause fatality rate of bloodstream infection was 3.5% (11/313). Of the 313 cases, 254 cases (81.1%) were Gram-negative bacteria infection, mainly including 115 cases (45.3%) of Escherichia coli, 80 cases (31.5%) of Klebsiella pneumoniae, and 29 cases (11.4%) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and 10 cases (3.9%) died; 51 cases (16.3%) were Gram-positive cocci infection, mainly including 22 cases (43.1%) of Streptococcus spp., 20 cases (39.2%) of Staphylococcus spp., 7 cases (13.7%) of Enterococcus faecalis, and 0 case died; 8 cases (2.6%) were fungal infection, including 4 cases (1.3%) of Candida tropicalis, 2 cases (0.6%) of Candida subsmoothis, 1 case (0.3%) of Candida smooth, 1 case (0.3%) of new Cryptococcus, and 3 cases (37.5%) died. The differences in the occurrence rates of adverse events were statistically significant when comparing different treatment stage, risk stratification, timing of sensitive antibiotic use, total duration of fever, and glucocorticoid use in chemotherapy regimen, infecting bacteria carbapenem resistance, and leukemia remission (all P < 0.05). The results of logistic binary regression analysis showed that the use of glucocorticoid in chemotherapy regimen, the total duration of fever ≥7 d, the timing of sensitive antibiotic use ≥24 h, and carbapenem resistance of the infecting bacteria were independent risk factors for the occurrence of adverse events in AL patients with bloodstream infection after chemotherapy (all P < 0.05). A nomogram prediction model for the occurrence of adverse events in AL patients with bloodstream infection was established, and the nomogram model was calibrated and validated with good calibration and discrimination. Conclusions:The pathogenic bacteria of bloodstream infection after chemotherapy in AL patients is mainly Gram-negative bacteria, and the presence of glucocorticoid in chemotherapy regimen, long total duration of fever, poor timing of sensitive antibiotics, and infecting bacteria carbapenem resistance are risk factors for the occurrence of adverse events in AL patients with bloodstream infection after chemotherapy, and the nomogram prediction model based on these factors has a reliable predictive ability for the occurrence of adverse events.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To investigate the situation of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae(CRE) colonization in patients undergoing haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). 【Methods】 A total of 241 consecutive patients who underwent haplo-HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from June 1, 2021 to June 1, 2022 were enrolled. Anal swab screening was performed within 48 hours of admission and blood cultures were taken when the patient developed fever. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to analyze the colonization rate, distribution, risk factors and the correlation between CRE colonization and post-transplant bloodstream infection(BSI). 【Results】 Among 241 patients with haplo-HSCT, there were 90 cases in CRE colonization positive group, with a colonization rate of 37.3% (90/241). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that sex (OR 2.42, 95% CI 1.38-4.22, P<0.05) and history of infection within 30 days before transplantation (OR 3.37, 95% CI 1.59-7.17, P<0.05) may be independent risk factors for CRE intestinal colonization. Of the 95 CRE strains, the top five species were carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (38/95, 40.0%), carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli (29/95, 30.5%), carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae (13/95, 13.6%), carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella acidophilus (6/95, 6.3%) and carbapenem-resistant Proteus mirabilis (3/95, 3.1%). The incidence of post-transplant BSI was 12.0% (29/241) in the CRE-colonized group and 3.3% (8/241) in the non-colonized group. In the colonization group, 100% of the pathogens of BSI were identical with those of CRE colonization. 【Conclusion】 Bacterial culture of anal swab during haplo-HSCT is helpful for detection of CRE colonization in intestinal tract, which provides some clinical basis for active monitoring of key flora, prevention and control of infection.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of bloodstream infections in obstetric patients and analyze the distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility of the pathogenic organisms. Methods The clinical data of bloodstream infections in obstetric patients treated in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from December 2014 to December 2017 were studied retrospectively. Results A total of 111 cases were identified, including 31(27.9％)during pregnancy and 80(72.1％)after delivery. Most(79.3％, 88/111)of these patients had obstetric disease or complication, and urinary, abdominal or intrauterine infection was found in 15(13.5％)cases. All patients had fever, and 7 cases showed septic shock. After treatment, 109(98.2％)patients were cured, despite infectious abortions in 6 cases. A total of 118 isolates were collected, including 31(26.3％)from pregnant women and 87(73.7％)isolates from puerperants. Gram-negative organisms, gram-positive organisms and Candia accounted for 58.5％, 39.0％, and 2.5％, respectively. The most common pathogens identified were Escherichia coli(44.1％), Enterococcus spp.(22.0％), and Staphylococcus spp.(5.1％). The prevalence of ESBLs-producing strains was 62.5％ in E. coli. All the E. coli strains were susceptible to piperacillin-tazobactam, imipenem, and tigecycline. No Enterococcus isolates were resistant to vancomycin or tigecycline. About 88.5％ of the Enterococcus strains were susceptible to ampicillin. Conclusions Bloodstream infection in obstetric patients usually occurs after delivery, probably resulting in septic shock or infectious abortion. The main pathogens are gram-negative bacteria and Enterococcus spp. The prevalence of ESBLs-producing strains was high in E. coli. Most of the Enterococcus strains were susceptible to ampicillin.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To explore the pathogen distribution, changes of cardiorespiratory function and changes of serum inflammatory factors in old patients with cardiac failure complicated with pulmonary infection. Methods A total of 153 cardiac failure patients hospitalized in our hospital from March 2014 to September 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into pulmonary infected group (n=76) and non-infected group (n=77). Another 82 healthy subjects were served as control group. The respiratory secretions were collected to detect pathogen distribution in infected group. The changes of cardiac and pulmonary functions and peripheral blood inflammatory factors were compared between the three groups. Results A total of 110 pathogens were isolated from infected group, which contained 81 (73.63%) gram negative strains, 27 (24.55%) gram positive strains and 2 (1.82%) fungus. Compared with the control group and non-infected group, the lung function index and pulmonary function decreased significantly in the infected group, containing forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), FEV1/FVC, carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DLCO), maximum mid expiratory flow (MMEF), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) and left ventricular end-systolic dimension (LVESD). Meanwhile, the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) –α, interleukin (IL)-6 and procalcitonin (PCT) were significantly higher in the infected group than those in the non-infected group and the control group (P＜0.05). Conclusion Gram negative strains dominate in pulmonary infection of old patients with cardiac failure, and the cardiopulmonary function is significantly decreased due to the infection, whereas the serum levels of inflammatory factors are dramatically increased, which has an auxiliary value in the evaluation of pulmonary infection.

ABSTRACT
To dynamically investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of bacteremia pathogens isolated from different regions in China in 2011, 2013 and 2016. Non-repetitive isolates from nosocomial bloodstream infections were retrospectively collected and detected for antimicrobial susceptibility tests (AST) by agar dilution or microbroth dilution methods. Whonet 5.6 was used to analyze the AST data. Among 2 248 isolates, 1 657 (73.7%) were Gram-negative bacilli and 591 (26.3%) were Gram-positive cocci. The top five bacteremia pathogens were as follows, Escherichia coli (32.6%, 733/2 248), Klebsiella pneumoniae (14.5%, 327/2 248), Staphylococcus aureus (10.0%, 225/2 248), Acinetobacter baumannii (8.7%, 196/2 248) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (6.2%, 140/2 248). Colistin (96.5%, 1 525/1 581, excluding innate resistant organisms), tigecycline (95.6%, 1 375/1 438, excluding innate resistant organisms), ceftazidine/clavulanate acid (89.2%, 1 112 /1 246), amikacin (86.4%, 1 382/1 599) and meropenem (85.7%, 1 376/1 605) showed relatively high susceptibility against Gram-negative bacilli. While tigecycline, teicoplanin and daptomycin (the susceptibility rates were 100.0%), vancomycin and linezolid (the susceptibility rates were 99.7%) demonstrated high susceptibility against Gram-positive cocci. The prevalence of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs)-producing Enterobacteriaceae were 50.6% (206/407), 49.8% (136/273) and 38.9% (167/429) in 2011, 2013 and 2016 respectively; carbapenem-non-susceptible Enterobacteriaceae were 2.2% (9/408), 4.0% (16/402) and 3.9% (17/439) in 2011, 2013 and 2016 respectively; The prevalence of multidrug-resistant A. baumannii (MDRA) was 76.4% (55/72) in 2011, 82.7% (43/52) in 2013 and 87.5% (63/72) in 2016, respectively. The prevalence of multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa (MDRP) was 9.8% (5/51) in 2011, 20.0% (7/35) in 2013 and 13.0% (7/54) in 2016, respectively. The prevalence of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) was 51.9% (41/79) in 2011, 29.7% (19/64) in 2013 and 31.7% (26/82) in 2016, respectively. The prevalence of high level gentamicin resistance (HLGR) of Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis were 43.2% (48/111) and 40.9% (27/66), respectively. The predominant organism of carbapenem-non-susceptible Enterobacteriaceae was K. pneumoniae with its proportion of 57.1% (24/42). Among 30 tigecycline-non-susceptible Enterobacteriaceae, K. pneumoniae was the most popular organism with 76.7% (23/30). Among 39 colistin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, E. coli, Enterobacter cloacae and K. pneumoniae were constituted with the percent of 43.6 (17/39), 35.9 (14/39) and 15.4 (6/39), respectively. The Gram-negative bacilli (E. coli and K. pneumoniae were the major organisms) were the major pathogens of nosocomial bacteremia, to which tigecycline, colistin and carbapenems kept with highly in vitro susceptibility. Whereas, among the Gram-positive cocci, S. aureus was the top 1 isolated organism, followed by E. faecium, to which tigecycline, daptomycin, linezolid, vancomycin and teicoplanin kept with highly in vitro susceptibility. Isolation of colistin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, tigecycline-non-susceptible Enterobacteriaceae, linezolid- or vancomycin-non-susceptible Gram-positive cocci suggests more attention should be paid to these resistant organisms and dynamic surveillance was essential.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the distribution and drug resistance of pyogenic encephalitis in our hospital,and to pro-vide reference for rational use of antibiotics. METHODS:The cerebrospinal fluid pathogen of 4 255 patients with pyogenic encepha-litis in our hospital during Jan. 1st,2011-Dec. 31st,2014 were cultured and identified,and drug sensitivity test was conducted. RE-SULTS:A total of 834 pathogens were isolated with positive detection rate of 19.6%,including 576 strains of gram-positive bacte-ria,accounting for 69.1%;255 strains of gram-negative bacteria,accounting for 30.6%;3 strains of fungi,accounting for 0.4%. Top 3 gram-positive bacteria were Coagulase-negative staphylococci(436 strains),Staphylococcus aureus(56 strains)and Entero-coccus (29 strains). Top 3 gram-negative bacteria were Klebsiella pneumoniae (46 strains),Acinetobacter baumannii (38 strains) and Escherichia coli(31 strains). Top 3 departments were neurosurgery department(506 strains),ICU(169 strains)and severe re-spiratory disease department (64 strains). Results of drug sensitivity test showed that no drug-resistant Staphylococcus and Entero-coccus strains to vancomycin,teicoplanin and miuocycline was found;nonfermenting Gram-negative bacilli showed low resistant to minocycline. CONCLUSIONS:Gram-positive bacteria dominates the detection rate of cerebrospinal fluid of pyogenic encephalitis patients;drug resistance of various pathogens is serious and clinicians should choose antibiotics based on drug sensitivity.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the distribution characteristics of pathogens isolated fromcerebrospinal fluid of neurosurgical patients with intracranial infection following open craniotomy and thetherapeutic effect influenced by these pathogens,in order to give a reference to the clinical treatmentmeasures.Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the pathogen distribution and therapeuticeffect of 43 patients with intracranial infection and positive cerebrospinal fluid cultures after open cranioto-my from May 2007 to May 2013.Cerebrospinal fluid was cleared using the intraventricular catheter orlumbar catheter combined with intraventricular (ventricular irrigation) or intraspinal (intrathecalirrigation) injection of antibacterial agents.Results To test bacteria in cerebrospinal fluid pathogencultures,34 cases were infected with single strain (26 Gram-positive bacteria and 8 Gram-negativebacteria) and 9 cases had mixed infection with multiple strains.Fifty-two pathogen strains were isolated,including 32 (62％) Gram-positive bacteria,18 (35％) Gram-negative bacteria,2 (4％) fungi.A totalof 29 cases were cured (67％),7 improved (16％),and 7 ineffective (16％).Conclusions Cere-brospinal fluid pathogen infection is primarily Gram-positive bacterial infection,usually staphylococcusepidermidis and staphylococcus aureus.Gram-negative pathogens are acinetobacter,klebsiella,andpseudomonas aeruginosa.Ventriculoperitoneal shunting surgery and craniocerebral surgery are often asso-ciated with mixed infection of pathogens.Ventricular irrigation allows better results than intrathecal irriga-tion.Indications of intrathecal irrigation treatment used to control intracranial infection after ventriculoper-itoneal shunting surgery and craniocerebral surgery should be strictly performed.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the distribution of detected pathogens in blood culture specimens in our hospital and the drug resistance to provide the basis for clinical reasonable selection of antibacterial drugs.Methods The blood culture results in our hospital from January 2011 to June 2012 were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among 3 164 blood culture samples,418 cases were positive,accounting for 13.21%,176 strains were Gram-positive bacteria(42.11%),Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase neg-ative staphylococcus were predominant;235 stains were Gram-negative bacteria(56.22%),Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumon-iae were predominant;7 stains were Candida(1.67%).The most of submitted specimens were the neonatology department(627 specimens),hematology department (367 specimens),respiratory department (272 specimens),paediatric department (207 speci-mens),neurology department(185 specimens)and ICU(158 specimens).The top departments in the strain separation rate were the hepatobiliary surgery(22.22%),endocrinology(18.18%),spinal surgery(16.36%),ICU(15.96%),neurosurgery(15.62%),neu-rology(15.13%),oncology(13.92%),urological surgery (12.23%),burns and pediatric surgery (12.15%),and bone surgery (10.25%).Among mainly Gram-positive bacteria,Staphylococcus had the high resistance to penicillin,erythromycin,clindamycin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,coagulase-negative staphylococci had the high resistance to quinoiones,but vancomycin-resistant and linezolid-resistant Staphylococcus was not found.Among Gtam-negative bacilli,Enterobacteriaceae had the strong sensitivity to imipenem,ertapenem and amikacin;Escherichia coli had the higher resistance to penicillins,cephalosporins,aztreonam,quinolones, cotrimoxazole,gentamicin and tobramycin,which was more than 40%,the resistance rate to ampicillin,ampicillin/sulbactam was a-bout 90%,but Escherichia coli was more sensitive to piperacillin / tazobactam,the resistance rate was less than 5%;Klebsiella pneumoniae had the low drug resistance,only the resistance rates to ampicillin and nitrofurantoin were more than 90%,the others were 30 % or less;Enterobacter cloacae had the higher resistance to ampicillin,ampicillin/sulbactam,third generation cephalospo-rins,tobramycin,cefotetan and nitrofurantoin and the low resistance to the fourth generation cephalosporins,piperacillin / tazobac-tam and quinolones.Conclusion The pathogenic bacterial species of blood culture are complex and dominated by the conditional pathogens with strong drug resistance.Therefore,the detection of clinical blood culture specimens in the patients with suspected septicemia should be strengthened for accurately and rationally using antibacterial drugs as early as possible and increasing the cure rate.
ABSTRACT
[Objective] To study the bacteriological feature of the wound infection of open fracture and supply the reasonable advise to the use of antibacterials. [Methods]One hundred and thirty-six samples were collected from the wound patients with open fracture between January in 2004 and December in 2008. The identification of bacteria and drug sensitive test were carded out by ATP-expression.[Results]One hundred and fifty one isolates were collected from 136 samples. The prevalence of staphylococcus aureus, pseudomonas aeruginosa, staphylococcus haemolyticus,staphylococcus epidermidis, eolon bacillus were most ,accounting for 17.22%, 13.24%, 11.92%, 9.93%and 9.27% respectively. The prevalence of MRSA was higher than 57.7%.Gram positive coccus , gram negative bacilli and candida accounted for 48.34%, 43.05% and 8.61% respectively. The prevalence of ESBLs was 28.6%. None of gram negative bacilli was found resistant to sulbactam and cefopcrazone. The resistance rate of gram negative bacilli to ampicillin , ampicillin -sulbactam and cephazolme were 71.4%. The rate of resistance of staphylococcus to methicillin was higher than 57.7%.Except vancomycin was not drug-fast, some sensitive antibacterials include cotrimoxazole, nitrofurantion, rifampicm tetracycline.[Conclusion]Endogenic normal flora and conditioned pathogen from the surroundings have become the main pathogens of the wound infection of open fracture. So the early debride and reasonable use of antibacterials would play a positive role in preventing postoperative fracture infection.
