RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the status and influencing factors of awareness of diabetic retinopathy (DR) knowledge in diabetics in Funing County, Jiangsu Province.Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. In 2021, a total of 2 125 residents with diabetes in Funing County, Jiangsu Province were recruited using cluster random sampling methods. General examinations were performed and ophthalmological evaluation were conducted including visual acuity in daily life, slit lamp microscope with preset lens, digital non-mydriatic fundus photography. Clinical assessment and classification of DR were according to the international standard clinical classifications of diabetic retinopathy in 2019. DR was classified into no obvious DR, mild non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), moderate NPDR, severe NPDR and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Field questionnaire surveys were conducted to show the awareness rate of DR knowledge. Then Chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis were used to investigate influencing factors.Results:Among 2 125 subjects, 762 (35.86%, 762/2 125) residents were male and 1 363 (64.14%, 1 363/2 125) residents were female. A total of 444 (20.89%, 444/2 125) subjects were diagnosed as DR. Among which, 438 (20.61%, 438/2 125) subjects were NPDR, 6 (0.28%, 6/2 125) subjects were PDR. A total of 419 (19.72%, 419/2 125) subjects were diagnosed as cataract. The topic awareness rates were all below 45.00%. The overall population awareness rate was 19.45% (4 959/25 500). Awareness rate was correlated with age, visual acuity in daily life, education level, family history of diabetes, diabetic retinopathy grades and the type of treatment for diabetes ( P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that the knowledge rate of prevention and treatment of DR Decreased significantly in patients aged 60-79 compared with those aged under 50 ( P<0.05). Compared with those with visual acuity <0.1 in daily life, the knowledge rate of DR prevention and treatment in those with visual acuity ≥0.1 was significantly decreased ( P<0.05). While primary school to college education, with family history of diabetes, with DR, oral hypoglycemic agents and/or insulin treatment were associated with higher awareness rate ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The DR knowledge level is low among diabetics in Funing County, Jiangsu Province in 2021. Age, visual acuity in daily life, education level, family history of diabetes, with DR and receiving drug treatments are main influencing factors for diabetic’s awareness.

No glycopeptide-resistant Staphylococcus was detected. More than 95% of S. aureus were sensitive to amikacin, rifampicin and SMZco. The resistance rate of E. faecium to vancomycin was 0.4% (2/504), and no vancomycin-resistant E. faecalis was detected. The ESBLs-producing rates in no carbapenem-resistance E. coli, carbapenem sensitive K. pneumoniae and Proteus were 50.4% (2 731/5 415), 24.6% (493/2001) and 35.2% (31/88), respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistance in E. coli and K. pneumoniae were 1.5% (85/5 500), 20.6% (518/2 519), respectively. 8.3% (27/325) of carbapenem-resistance K. pneumoniae was resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination. The resistance rates of A. baumannii to polymyxin and tigecycline were 2.8% (14/501) and 3.4% (17/501) respectively, and that of P. aeruginosa to carbapenem were 18.9% (103/546). Conclusions:The surveillance results from 2018 to 2019 showed that the main pathogens of bloodstream infection in China were gram-negative bacteria, while E. coli was the most common pathogen, and ESBLs-producing strains were in majority; the MRSA incidence is getting lower in China; carbapenem-resistant E. coli keeps at a low level, while carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniae is on the rise obviously.

RESUMO
Aim To analyze differential expression and interaction of β-catenin/ICAT proteins in HL60 cells when they were induced into monocytic differentiation, and to figure out the mechanism of NSC67657 in cellu-lar induction. Methods HL60 cells were treated by 10 μmol · L-1 NSC67657 , and cellular differentiation could be observed by cytochemical staining and flow cytometry. Then, RT-PCR and Western blot were em-ployed to determine the differential expression of β-catenin/ICAT genes and proteins. Co-immunoprecipi-tation assay was used to confirm the interaction of β-catenin/ICAT proteins, and laser co-focus light mi-croscopy technology was used to co-indentify proteins differential expression and intracellular location. Re-sults HL60 cells could be induced into monocytic dif-ferentiation after 5 days treatment using 10μM NSC67657 . The CD14 ( +)% cells could be up to o-ver 90%, and cytochemical staining reports were con-sistent with this result. The expressions of ICAT gene and protein were up-regulated significantly ( P <0. 01 ) , but the expressions ofβ-catenin gene and pro-tein, on the contrary, were down-regulated(P<0. 05) when HL60 cells were induced into monocytic differen-tiation. From co-immunoprecipitation assay findings, ICAT protein interacted with β-catenin protein, and the absorbance of protein electrophoresis bands in-creased in differentiated cells. From laser co-focus light microscopy assay findings, the fluorescence of ICAT and β-catenin protein could be both observed in cytoplasm and nucleus. In drug treated HL60 cells, the fluorescence of ICAT protein was enhanced both in cytoplasm and nucleus, however, the fluorescence ofβ-catenin protein, which looked like transferring into different organelles, decreased significantly in nucleus, but increased in cytoplasm. Conclusions HL60 cells could be induced into monocytic differentiation by NSC67657 and β-catenin/ICAT proteins differentially expressed during cellular differentiation. The enhanced interaction of β-catenin/ICAT proteins and β-catenin protein transferring from nucleus into cytoplasm indi-cates that NSC67657 probably induces HL60 cells into monocytic differentiation through down-regulating β-catenin protein and blockingβ-catenin protein from nu-cleus.
