基于全基因组测序的耐碳青霉烯类抗生素鲍曼不动杆菌耐药基因、毒力因子及同源性分析

摘要：目的 通过应用全基因组测序(whole genome sequencing, WGS)技术分析某三级医疗机构耐碳青霉烯类抗生素鲍曼不 动杆菌(carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, CRAB)的耐药基因、毒力因子及同源性。方法 收集该院2020年1月至3月 重症监护病房(Intensive care unit, ICU)、神经外科分离的11株医院感染CRAB菌株，通过二代测序平台进行全基因组测序, 应用 基因组流行病学中心(Center for genomic epidemiology, CGE)ResFinder 4. 0软件分析其耐药基因型，并应用MORPHEUS在线制作 热图，应用毒力因子数据库(virulence factors of pathogenic bacteria, VFDB)VFanalyzer软件筛选毒力因子，应用MLST软件检测菌 株的ST型，应用Kaptive软件检测荚膜型，应用CSI Phylogeny 1. 4软件及FigTree v1. 4. 4软件构建最大似然树(maximum likelihood tree, MLT)以分析其同源性。结果 11株CRAB对亚胺培南、美罗培南、头孢菌素、环丙沙星均呈现耐药，而对阿米卡星、左氧 氟沙星耐药的菌株株数较少。11株CRAB共检测出18种耐药基因，11株同时携带碳青霉烯酶耐药基因blaOXA-23和blaOXA-66，β-内酰 胺酶耐药基因以blaTEM-1D和blaADC-25为主，大部分菌株携带多种外排泵相关耐药基因及抗菌药物修饰酶耐药基因。11株CRAB均携 带多种毒力因子，包括外膜孔蛋白、脂多糖、生物膜、外排泵、磷脂酶和效应蛋白等，如OmpA、Lps、Csu、Pga、Ade、Plc、 Bas、Bau、Ent、Hem、Aba、Bfm、Pbp和Kat等。11株CRAB均为ST2-K22型，同源性分析结果显示C组内同源性关系相近，存 在院内传播的可能。结论 该院CRAB的耐药性、毒力特征复杂多样，同源性分析显示该院存在1种优势克隆株，该克隆株有医 院内传播的风险。     

Identification of volatile organic compounds in muscle tissues of different species based on Headspace-Gas-Chromatography Ion-Mobility spectrometry

Species identification of unknown biological samples is crucial for forensic applications, especially in cases of explosion, disaster accidents, and body mutilation after murdering, as well as poaching, illegal trade in endangered animals, and meat food fraud. In this study, we identified 60 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in fresh skeletal muscle tissues of seven different animal species (cattle, sheep, pigs, rabbits, rats, chickens and carp) and a human dead body by headspace-gas-chromatography ion-mobility spectrometry (HS-GC-IMS), and compared their differences by retention time, drift time and molecular weight. The results showed that these VOCs formed different gallery plot fingerprints in the skeletal muscle tissues of the human dead body and seven animal species. Principal component analysis (PCA) showed significantly different fingerprints between these species, and these fingerprints maintained good stability between the species and within the same species. Some VOCs have high species specificity, while VOCs of human fresh muscle tissues from different individual sources have little difference, demonstrating that all tested muscle tissue samples could be distinguished based on different VOCs. HS-GC-IMS has proved to be a rapid, high-throughput, highly sensitive and specific species identification method, which can be used for forensic species identification in criminal cases and disaster accidents, as well as detection in the field of food safety, such as meat fraud and adulteration.

p53基因突变与骨髓增殖性肿瘤临床特征及预后关系

探究p53 基因突变与骨髓增殖性肿瘤（MPN）临床特征及预后的关系。方法 选取2017年1月～2020年1月本院收治的MPN患者126例，二代测序法检测患者p53 基因突变情况。对患者进行随访，统计患者总生存（OS）时间和累计生存率；分析p53 基因突变对患者临床特征、预后的影响。结果 126例MPN患者中12例（9.52%）检出p53基因突变，突变主要位于4~8号外显子上，不同类型患者的p53 基因突变检出率比较差异无统计学意义（P＞0.05）。p53突变组患者年龄大于p53 非突变组，WBC水平低于p53 非突变组（P＜0.05），两组患者的染色体核型、IPSS预后分层比较差异无统计学意义（P＞0.05）；p53 非突变组患者的OS时间、累计生存率均明显高于p53突变组患者（P＜0.05）。结论 MPN患者p53 基因突变发生率较高，与患者年龄、WBC水平、异常核型及IPSS预后分层相关，p53 基因突变会影响患者的预后，可作为临床筛查预后不良高风险人群的客观指标。

Left ventricular noncompaction associated with a pathogenic mutation in the MYH7 gene: Known mutation,different phenotype

Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a genetically heterogeneous cardiomyopathy, with familial and sporadic forms, but genetic testing only identifies a pathogenic mutation in a minority of cases. The main complications are heart failure, embolism and dysrhythmias. Herein we report a familial case of LVNC associated with a mutation in the MYH7 gene and review the literature regarding controversies in LVNC. A 50-year-old woman was referred to the cardiology clinic for palpitations. She underwent echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging that revealed mild left ventricular systolic dysfunction and LVNC criteria. She had several episodes of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia and received an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). Genetic testing revealed the c.1003G>C (p.Ala335Pro) mutation in the MYH7 gene. Familial screening showed clear genotype-phenotype cosegregation, which provided strong evidence for the pathogenic role of this mutation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of LVNC associated with the p.Ala335Pro mutation in the MYH7 gene. This mutation has been described in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, suggesting that the same pathogenic sarcomere mutation may be associated with different cardiomyopathies. This case also highlights the current difficulties regarding decisions on ICD implantation for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death in LVNC.     

HBV基因型的研究现状与发展趋势探讨

[摘要]?目前研究已知HBV有多种基因型，不同基因型在不同的种族、地域方面分布特点不同且HBV基因型是造成慢性感染自然史差异的原因之一，它们在感染的临床表现和抗病毒治疗的反应中起着重要作用。检测HBV基因型和了解HBV不同基因型对疾病预后的影响，对评估患者疾病结局和指导临床规划最佳治疗方案具有重要意义。 　　[关键词]　乙型肝炎病毒；基因型；基因突变；治疗
