RESUMEN
Objective:This study aims to investigate the incidence, risk factors, and prognosis of acute kidney injury after heart transplantation.Methods:Clinical data of 180 recipients of heart transplantation at Zhengzhou Seventh People's Hospital from April 2018 to November 2022 are retrospectively analyzed. According to whether AKI occurred 7 days after surgery, the recipients are divided into a non AKI group(85 cases)and an AKI group(95 cases). The baseline data, general perioperative conditions, and clinical data of the two groups of recipients are compared using chi square test and rank sum test to identify possible influencing factors for AKI after heart transplantation.Determine independent risk factors through binary logistic regression.The Kaplan Meier method is used to draw survival curves to further clarify the impact of AKI on the survival and cumulative hospitalization of heart transplant recipients.Results:The incidence of postoperative AKI in 180 recipients of this study is 52.7%(95/180). Univariate analysis showed that there are statistically significant differences in recipient age, preoperative albumin, platelet count, graft cold ischemia time, and surgical time between the AKI group and the non AKI group(all P<0.05). Further multivariate analysis showes that recipient age( OR=1.021, 95% CI: 1.001~1.043, P=0.043), surgical time( OR=1.005, 95% CI: 1.001~1.008, P=0.005), platelet count( OR=0.995, 95% CI: 0.990~1.000, P=0.034), and donor cold ischemia time ( OR=0.996, 95% CI: 0.993~0.996, P=0.004)are independent risk factors for AKI after heart transplantation. Prognostic analysis showed that 35.7%(25 cases)of the AKI group received continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT)after surgery, and 31.9%(23 cases) received aortic balloon counterpulsation(IABP)after surgery. Compared with 0 and 8.9%(7 cases)of the AKI group without AKI, the differences are statistically significant(all P<0.01). Compared with the non AKI group, the invasive mechanical ventilation time is 614 (504, 707) hours and 540 (460, 610) hours( P<0.01), the stay time in the intensive care unit is 12(8, 16)days and 10(6, 15)days( P=0.050), and the estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)on the 7th day after surgery is 10(6, 15)ml/(min·1.73 m 2)and 68(57.5, 91.0)ml/(min·1.73 m 2)( P<0.01), with statistical significance. The cumulative survival rate of the AKI group after heart transplantation is lower than that of the non AKI group, and the cumulative hospitalization rate Is higher than the latter. The differences between the groups are statistically significant(all P<0.01). Conclusions:The incidence of AKI after heart transplantation is relatively high, and recipient age, platelet count, graft cold ischemia time, and surgical time are independent risk factors for AKI. Recipients with AKI after heart transplantation have a higher proportion of postoperative use of CRRT and IABP, longer invasive mechanical ventilation time and monitoring room stay time, and lower eGFR on the 7th day after surgery; at the same time, recipients with AKI after heart transplantation have a lower postoperative survival rate and a higher cumulative hospitalization rate.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the risk factors for early mortality in heart transplant(HT)recipients and construct a nomogram prediction model.Methods:From 2018 to 2022, preoperative clinical data were retrospectively reviewed for 163 consecutive HT recipients.Risk factor variables were shortlisted by univariate correlation analysis based upon early(90-day)postoperative patient survival.Lasso regression was then employed for screening all variables and common variables were combined.A nomogram was constructed for predicting the probability of early mortality after considering actual circumstance.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve, area under the ROC curve(AUC), Harrell's C-index and calibration curves were employed for evaluating and internally validate the performance of the model.Decision curve analysis was performed for assessing clinical utility of the model.Results:In survival and mortality groups, mechanical ventilation, nervous system lesions, use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, red blood cell count ≤3.52×10 12/L, mean pulmonary arterial pressure>27 mmHg, pulmonary vascular resistance>4.01 Wood Unit, albumin≤33 g/L, aspartate aminotransferase >50 U/L, hemoglobin ≤108 g/L, platelet count ≤109×10 9/L and total bilirubin>57 μmol/L demonstrated statistically significant differences( P<0.05). At the same time, according to actual situations and different variables, hemoglobin ≤108 g/L, albumin ≤33 g/L, platelet count ≤109×10 9/L, total bilirubin>57μmol/L, aspartate aminotransferase>50 U/L, nervous system lesions and average pulmonary arterial pressure >27 mmHg were seven variables.And a nomogram with relatively high reliability was constructed for predicting the probability of early mortality post-HT(nomogram model evaluation, AUC 0.917, C index 0.910 and good calibration curve). Decision curve analysis indicated that the nomogram could benefit HT recipients. Conclusions:Risk factors have been identified for early mortality in HT recipients.And the nomogram prediction model offers a simple and reliable tool for predicting early mortality post-HT.It has important implications for individualized treatment of HT candidates.

RESUMEN
Staphylococcus utilizes vancomycin-resistance associated sensor/regulator ( VraSR) , a two-component signal transduction system ( TCS) , to sense and respond to cell wall damage and to adapt to environmental changes through regulating transcriptions of downstream genes. It has been indicated that VraSR can regulate the transcription of a series of genes involved in the synthesis of peptidoglycan, drug re-sistance, and virulence in Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus) . A similar two-component system, VraSR, is also present in Staphylococcus epidermidis ( S. epidermidis ) , sharing a high homology with the VraSR of S. aureus. Little is known about the functions of VraSR in S. epidermidis and it is not yet clear what the simi-larities and differences in resistance and pathogenicity are. Based on the previous work of our group, a brief review on the regulation mechanism of staphylococcal VraSR was performed.

Objective To study the correlation between the drug-resistance variation and the genotypes of hepatitis B virus (HBV)detected by the PCR-reverse dot blot and the relation between the HBV variation loci with the liver function indexes and HBV DNA viral loading.Methods The serum samples from 462 patients with chronic hepatitis B treated by oral nucleoside drugs were screened.The PCR-reverse dot blot was adopted to detect the drug-resistance gene mutation loci and genotypes.The correla-tion between the HBV drug-resistance mutant with the genotypes,liver function indexes and HBV DNA viral loads was performed. Results Among 462 patients taking nucleoside drugs for treating chronic hepatitis B,45 drug-resistance mutants were detected with the mutation rate of 9.74%;in which,16 cases (35.5%)were 180M and 204I/V mutant,6 cases(13.3%)were 204V,13 ca-ses(28.9%)were 204I mutant,3 cases (6.7%)were 180V mutant and 3 cases(6.7%)were 236T mutant.The HBV genotyping showed 105 cases of genotype B,337 cases of genotype C,0 case of genotype D and 2 cases of other genotypes.Conclusion (1)The HBVgenotypes in Maoming area may be different from the genotypes in other southern regions and is dominated by HBV-C geno-type.(2)The PCR-reverse dot blot method is a detection method for fastly and accurately finding the drug-resistance loci after nu-cleosides therapy.(3)The clinical analysis demonstrates that the drug-resistance mutation loci has no correlation with the liver func-tion index ALT(P >0.05),but there was certain correlation between the drug-resistance mutation loci in hepatitis B and HBV DNA viral load(P <0.05).
