Temporal shifts in gyrA mutation types and sublineage replacement in ST11 Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis over a decade (2014-2023): A genomic epidemiological study in Guangxi, China.

The overuse or abuse of antibiotics drives the global health threat of antimicrobial resistance. Although bans on certain veterinary antibiotics, such as colistin, have proven effective, the impact of fluoroquinolone stewardship on the evolution of the foodborne pathogen Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis) remains unclear. Here, we conducted a decade-long (2014-2023) retrospective longitudinal genomic epidemiological analysis of 441 ST11 S. Enteritidis isolates from Guangxi, China, alongside a global reference dataset of 4297 genomes. Our aim was to elucidate the effect of real-world antibiotic stewardship on the shift of gyrA point mutations and lineage distribution. Surveillance identified three global epidemic clade sublineages (GEC-L2, L3, L4), with the multidrug-resistant GEC-L4 (i.e., GC-c or MMC2), characterized by the gyrA mutation with amino acid substitution D87Y, being domestically dominant (70.07%, 309/441). Following China's 2016 ban on the veterinary use of critical fluoroquinolones, the proportion of the highly resistant GEC-L4 sublineage decreased continuously (from 86.84% in 2017 to 56.00% in 2023), while the less resistant GEC-L3 sublineage (i.e., GC-b or MMC1), mainly characterized by gyrA D87G, increased simultaneously (from 13.16% to 44.00%). This phenomenon might be attributed to the fact that the GEC-L4 sublineage exhibited a higher fitness cost compared with the GEC-L3 sublineage, as confirmed by the competition assay. A Random Forest Model validated that the gyrA mutation with amino acid substitution D87Y was the paramount feature for these sublineages' identification. In contrast, global data showed a continuous increase in gyrA mutations (from 8.63% in 2006 to 68.85% in 2024), primarily D87Y (from 1.44% to 31.15%) and D87N (from 4.32% to 22.95%), correlating with rising average fluoroquinolone consumption. This study provides direct genomic evidence that national-level antibiotic stewardship can drive the replacement of highly resistant sublineages with moderately resistant ones. These findings offer crucial scientific evidence for evaluating the impact of antibiotic management policies and inform strategies for the rational use of antimicrobials.

Timing and Dose Matter: Late High-Speed Exposure and Higher High-Intensity Acceleration Volumes Reduce Hamstring Reinjury Risk in Elite Male Football (Soccer).

OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study were to (a) investigate whether the timing and magnitude of exposure to high-speed running (HSR), sprinting, and high-intensity accelerations during on-field rehabilitation after hamstring strain injury were associated with reinjury risk and (b) examine changes in match running performance upon return to play (RTP). DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. METHODS: Data from 95 elite male football (soccer) players from five professional clubs competing in major European and Middle Eastern leagues were analyzed. Players with complete rehabilitation load profiles were included in the 2-month and 6-month reinjury analysis. Modified Poisson regression assessed associations between rehabilitation load characteristics and reinjury risk. Match running performance (HSR distance, sprint distance, and high-intensity accelerations per minute) during the five matches before injury and the first five matches after RTP was compared using paired t-tests for the entire cohort. RESULTS: Late introduction of HSR, sprinting, and high-intensity accelerations during rehabilitation (ie, ≥ 60% of rehabilitation progression) was associated with a significantly lower reinjury risk at 2 months (relative risk [RR] range = 0.948-0.969; P < .01) and 6 months (RR range = 0.964-0.979; P < .05). Higher daily exposure to high-intensity accelerations once introduced was protective (RR = 0.861 (0.778-0.951)). There were no meaningful associations between total volume of HSR or sprinting and reinjury. Match running performance metrics did not differ between pre-injury and post-RTP matches (all P > .05). Changes in performance were not correlated with rehabilitation load characteristics. CONCLUSION: The timing of high-intensity running exposure during on-field rehabilitation appeared associated with a lower hamstring reinjury risk. Delaying the introduction of HSR, sprinting, and accelerations, followed by a structured and progressive build-up, was associated with lower risk of reinjury without compromising the subsequent match performance of elite male football players.

Exploring the role of successful exercise-induced body weight loss on cardiometabolic health in individuals with metabolic syndrome.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is known to improve cardiorespiratory fitness (i.e., VO2MAX), a key marker of cardiometabolic health in individuals with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Nonetheless, body weight loss is widely recognized as a crucial factor in reducing insulin resistance and improving metabolic risk factors. Thus, we aimed to determine the importance of body weight loss following exercise training on improving MetS. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two hundred and twenty-eight adults (55.3 ± 7.9 yr) with overweight/obesity (32.5 ± 4.6 kg·m-2) and MetS were randomized to: a) standard health care non-exercise group (CONTROL group, N=58) or b) standard health care plus 16 weeks of HIIT (EXER group, N=170). MetS (MetS z-score), insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2PEAK), maximal cycling power (WPEAK), and body weight/composition were assessed. After intervention, EXER group participants were divided according to their weight loss response to training: i) those achieving the weight loss predicted from estimated exercise energy expenditure (-BW group, n=78; -3.3 ± 2.2 kg); ii) those not reaching the expected weight loss (=BW group, n=38; -0.7 ± 0.5 kg); iii) and those who gained weight (+BW group, n=54; 1.1 ± 1.0 kg). VO2PEAK significantly improved regardless of body weight loss response (-BW, 0.3 ± 0.3; =BW, 0.2 ± 0.3; +BW, 0.3 ± 0.2 L·min-1; all p < 0.001) compared to CONTROL group (0.0 ± 0.3 L·min-1). However, significant improvements in MetS z-score (-0.31 ± 0.41) and HOMA-IR (-0.7 ± 1.6) were observed only in the -BW group (both p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Exercise recommendations should consider that greater improvements in MetS are observed when interventions are accompanied by successful body weight loss.

Clinical outcomes of Epstein-Barr virus infection/reactivation following CAR-T cell therapy: A systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection or reactivation is an emerging but underrecognized complication following chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy and is likely associated with treatment-induced immune dysregulation. Data regarding its clinical impact remain limited. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the reported occurrence, clinical manifestations, and outcomes of EBV infection or reactivation in adults undergoing CAR-T therapy. METHODS: A systematic review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL were searched from inception to March 2025 for studies reporting EBV infection or reactivation after CAR-T therapy in adults. Due to limited and heterogeneous data, results were synthesized descriptively. RESULTS: Five studies comprising 80 patients were included (median age, 55 years; 52.6% male among patients with reported sex data [10/19]). Across the included studies, 11 EBV infection/reactivation events were identified among 80 described CAR-T recipients, representing 13.8% of the reported sample rather than a true incidence estimate. Among events with usable individualized timing data, the median interval from CAR-T infusion to EBV detection/reactivation was 9.8 months (approximate range, 1-44 months). Because EBV surveillance strategies and definitions were inconsistently reported across studies, this proportion should not be interpreted as a true incidence estimate. Four patients (36.4%) developed EBV-associated disease, including three cases of EBV-related lymphoproliferative disorder and one case of EBV-associated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Among seven patients with reported post-CAR-T treatment response, four achieved Complete Remission/ Continuous Complete Remission; treatment response should be interpreted separately from final survival status. Confirmed EBV-related mortality occurred in 2/11 patients with reported EBV infection/reactivation and in 2/4 patients with EBV-associated disease; all-cause mortality could not be reliably estimated because patient-level vital status could not be fully attributed to the EBV-reactivated subgroup. Reported toxicities predominantly consisted of low-grade cytokine-release syndrome; however, toxicity data were limited. CONCLUSION: Although infrequently reported, EBV infection or reactivation after CAR-T therapy may be associated with substantial morbidity and mortality among affected patients. However, the available evidence is limited by the small sample size, heterogeneous study designs, and inconsistent EBV surveillance practices.

Optimized AAV5-RPGR ORF15 Gene Therapy Rescues Photoreceptor Structure and Function in X-Linked Retinitis Pigmentosa Mouse Model.

PURPOSE: To develop and evaluate an rAAV5-based gene therapy vector expressing an optimized human RPGR ORF15 transgene (rAAV5-RPGR) for the treatment of X-linked retinitis pigmentosa caused by RPGR mutations, addressing the challenges of cloning the unstable wild-type ORF15 sequence. DESIGN: This was a prospective experimental study. SUBJECTS: This was an animal study. METHODS: An optimized RPGR ORF15 sequence was designed to eliminate problematic secondary structures and cryptic splice sites. In vitro expression was validated in HEK 293T and photoreceptor-like 661 W cells. A complete Rpgr knockout mouse model (Rpgr-knockout [KO]) was generated and characterized phenotypically. Therapeutic efficacy was assessed in Rpgr-KO mice via subretinal injection of rAAV5-RPGR at low (1 × 10⁹ vg/eye), medium (3 × 10⁹ vg/eye), or high (1 × 10¹⁰ vg/eye) doses. Structural and functional outcomes were evaluated at 12- and 14-month postinjection. Short-term safety was assessed in rabbits 1 month after subretinal injection. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Level of RPGR protein expression and Protein isoform profile (elimination of truncated isoforms), Cellular localization of transgene expression and Dose-dependence of expression, outer nuclear layer thickness, and electroretinography parameters. RESULTS: (1) The optimized vector increased RPGR protein expression 3.3-fold in vitro compared to wild-type and eliminated truncated isoforms. (2) Subretinal delivery of rAAV5-RPGR in mice demonstrated dose-dependent transgene expression localized correctly to photoreceptor inner segments. (3) In Rpgr-KO mice, high-dose treatment significantly preserved outer nuclear layer thickness at the injection site (42% greater than controls at 14 months, P < .01) and central retina (P < .05), reduced aberrant rhodopsin mislocalization (P < .01), and partially restored retinal function. ERG showed significantly improved scotopic a-wave (≥100 vs <90 µV in controls at 10 cd·s/m²) and photopic b-wave amplitudes (49-66 vs 31-46 µV at 30 cd·s/m²) in treated mice. (4) No vector-related toxicity was observed in rabbits. CONCLUSIONS: rAAV5-RPGR mediated efficiently, targeted expression of optimized RPGR-ORF15, significantly preserved photoreceptor structure and function in a severe X-linked retinitis pigmentosa mouse model, and demonstrated a favorable safety profile. This study provides preclinical proof-of-concept for RPGR-targeted gene replacement therapy.

The Association Between NT-Pro BNP, Nephropathy and Endothelial Dysfunction in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

BACKGROUND: N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-Pro BNP) is an established biomarker of heart failure and has been recommended for cardiovascular risk stratification in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, its relationship with diabetic nephropathy and endothelial dysfunction across varying stages of kidney impairment remains unclear. This study examined the associations of NT-Pro BNP, renal impairment, albuminuria and endothelial dysfunction in patients with T2DM without overt heart failure. METHODS: A comparative cross-sectional study was conducted among 192 adults with T2DM. Participants were stratified by KDIGO eGFR groups (≥ 90, 60-89, 30-59 mL/min/1.73m2). NT-Pro BNP was considered abnormal at a cut-off of ≥ 125 pg/mL. Albuminuria was categorized using the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR). Endothelial function was assessed by brachial artery flow-mediated dilatation (FMD). Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent factors of elevated NT-Pro BNP, with p-values < 0.05 considered statistically significant. RESULTS: NT-Pro BNP levels were significantly higher in the lower eGFR groups compared with normal eGFR (204.3 vs. 96.8 vs. 62.2 pg/mL, p < 0001). A weak but significant positive correlation was observed between NT-Pro BNP and uACR (r = 0.31, p < 0.001). However, no significant association was found between NT-Pro BNP and FMD (p = 0.388). Following multivariable adjustments, older age (adjusted OR 1.14, 95% CI: 1.06-1.23, p < 0.001), higher systolic blood pressure (adjusted OR 1.05, 95% CI: 1.02-1.08, p = 0.010), lower eGFR (adjusted OR 0.97, 95% CI: 0.95-0.99, p = 0.003) and beta-blocker use (adjusted OR 4.65, 95% CI: 1.61-13.45, p < 0.001) were independently associated with elevated NT-Pro BNP. CONCLUSION: In patients with T2DM without overt heart failure, elevated NT-Pro BNP showed a statistically significant association with lower eGFR and higher albuminuria. Moderate to severe albuminuria becomes an independent factor for elevated NT-Pro BNP after adjustment excluding eGFR. The lack of association with endothelial dysfunction suggests that NT-Pro BNP may reflect different pathophysiological pathways. NT-Pro BNP may serve as a useful biomarker for early cardiovascular risk stratification and identification of individuals at risk of pre-heart failure in diabetic kidney disease.

Comparison of Adult Tracheostomy Outcomes Before and After Implementation of a Dedicated Tracheostomy Team.

OBJECTIVE: (A) Determine patient and institutional factors associated with increased length of stay (LOS) and complications of tracheostomy, (B) Develop data-driven quality improvement in tracheostomy care. DESIGN: Mixed methods protocol used cross-sectional survey assessing institutional trends in tracheostomy-specific care. Retrospective chart review compared tracheostomy patient outcomes prior to and during implementation of a multidisciplinary tracheostomy care team and standardized guidelines. PARTICIPANTS: Patients undergoing tracheostomy from January 2019 to December 2021 at a tertiary hospital. METHODS: Patient factors, procedure type and indication, tracheostomy tube size, management timeline, insurance, and disease severity using Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score were analyzed for associations with LOS and adverse events. Multivariate analyses controlled for APACHE II score and payer source. LOS and complications were compared between patients before and during implementation of multidisciplinary tracheostomy care team and standardized guidelines. RESULTS: Three-hundred and eighteen patients met criteria with a 21.7% complication rate, average LOS of 24 days (SD = 28.523), and median LOS post-tracheostomy of 14 days (IQR 7, 29). Departments without standardized protocols had greater LOS (F[1,316] = 28.706, P < .001]) and complication odds (OR = 2.92, P = .015, 95% CI[1.231, 6.930]). Larger tracheostomy tube size was linked to increased LOS (β = .253, t(314) = 4.741, P < .001, 95% CI[4.137, 10.081]). Delays from ventilation discontinuation to cuffless tube exchange and decannulation correlated with increased LOS (β = .406, t(184) = 6.321, P < .001, 95% CI[.928, 1.771]); (β = .554, t(129) = 7.625, P < .001, 95% CI[1.008, 1.715]). When focusing on a single department, comparing 2019 patients to 2021 patients (pre- and post-guideline and care team), overall, LOS decreased from 33.08 to 30.83 days (P = .586). When excluding patients discharged on a ventilator, the 2019 group had average LOS of 37.938 days versus 33.41 days in 2021 (P = .344). CONCLUSIONS: Standardized tracheostomy care guidelines and multidisciplinary care teams are critical to improving institutional outcomes. Data-driven approaches to quality improvement ensure efficient and targeted methods to improving patient care. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4.

A 7-mm Covered TIPS Reduces Hepatic Encephalopathy Without Increasing Rebleeding in Cirrhotic Patients With Small Liver: A Randomized Study.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: International guidelines recommend initiating transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement with an 8-mm stent. However, there is an evident lack of randomized controlled trials evaluating TIPS diameters < 8 mm in cirrhotic patients with a relatively small liver. The aim of this study was to determine whether 7 mm-covered TIPS, compared with 8-mm stents, could achieve comparable shunt function with a lower incidence of hepatic encephalopathy (HE). METHODS: In this multicenter randomized controlled trial, patients with cirrhosis and relatively small liver were randomized 1:1 to receive TIPS with a 7-mm (n = 92) or 8-mm (n = 92) covered stent to prevent variceal rebleeding. The primary endpoint was the incidence of overt HE after randomization. All-cause rebleeding, orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT)-free survival and a composite of these outcomes, were designated as secondary endpoints. RESULTS: Among the 184 enrolled patients, the predominant etiologies of liver cirrhosis were hepatitis B virus infection (56.0%) and alcohol-related liver disease (20.7%). Over a median follow-up of 26.5 months, overt HE occurred in 19 patients (20.7%) in the 7-mm group and 33 patients (35.9%) in the 8-mm group. The 2-year cumulative incidence of overt HE was significantly lower in the 7-mm group than in the 8-mm group (21.4% vs. 37.2%, p = 0.02). Stent diameter, post-TIPS portosystemic pressure gradient, pre-covert HE and MELD-Na score were identified as independent risk factors for overt HE. The rates of shunt dysfunction were statistically similar between groups (8.7% vs. 8.7%, p = 1.0), as were 2-year rebleeding rates (10.9% vs. 9.8%, p = 0.81) and OLT-free survival rates (91.3% vs. 88.0%, p = 0.82). CONCLUSIONS: A 7-mm covered TIPS demonstrated comparable shunt function to an 8-mm covered stents, with a significantly lower risk of overt HE. These findings support consideration of 7-mm TIPS stents for preventing variceal rebleeding in cirrhotic patients with a small liver who are undergoing TIPS.

BLIS study: a feasibility randomised controlled trial assessing compliance, acceptability and colonisation with different dosing regimens of the probiotic supplement Streptococcus salivarius K12 (Bactoblis) in adults in England.

OBJECTIVES: Streptococcus salivarius K12 (SsK12) is a bacterium used as a probiotic with some evidence for preventing acute sore throat/tonsillitis, but the optimal dosing strategy is unclear. This study aimed to evaluate two dosing regimens of SsK12 to establish (a) the prevalence and duration of colonisation with SsK12 and (b) the acceptability and feasibility of these regimens. DESIGN: A randomised, non-blinded feasibility trial. SETTING: Primary care in the south of England. PARTICIPANTS: Adults with ≥2 episodes of sore throat within the 3 years before recruitment. INTERVENTIONS: Participants were randomised to take SsK12 lozenges once weekly or daily over 14 days. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcome was the prevalence and duration of colonisation with SsK12. This was determined by real-time PCR conducted on self-taken whole-mouth swabs provided by participants at baseline and on days 2, 7, 14, 21 and 35. Secondary outcomes were the compliance and acceptability of the two SsK12 dosing regimens, based on questionnaire data. RESULTS: 53 participants were recruited (26 randomised to weekly and 27 to daily dosing) between 26 April and 5 December 2023. All swabs were returned by 65.4% (17/26) and 70.4% (19/27) of the weekly and daily groups respectively. Swabs at all timepoints from participants with PCR positives observed at baseline (two and four from the weekly and daily group, respectively) were excluded. Therefore, swabs from 23 participants in the weekly and 22 in the daily group did not have evidence of baseline colonisation and were included in the microbiology analysis. SsK12 colonisation was found in 59.1% (13/22, 95% CI 38.6% to 79.6%) of samples in both groups on day 2; in 13.6% (3/22, 95% CI 0.0% to 28.0%) and 85.7% (18/21, 95% CI 70.8% to 100.0%) of the weekly and daily groups, respectively, on day 7; in 19.1% (4/21, 95% CI 2.3% to 35.8%) and 59.1% (13/22, 95% CI 38.6% to 79.6%), respectively, on day 14; and in only one participant (weekly group) on days 21 and 35. The dosing regimen was reported as easy to follow by 85.0% (17/20, 95% CI 69.4% to 100.0%) of the weekly and 96.2% (25/26, 95% CI 88.8% to 100.0%) of the daily dosing groups. CONCLUSIONS: SsK12 colonisation was more prevalent with daily dosing; however, colonisation was not maintained when dosing stopped. Both dosing regimens were acceptable to participants. These findings support the use of daily dosing in a future trial to evaluate the efficacy of SsK12 in preventing recurrence of sore throat/tonsillitis. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT04297878.

Venetoclax added to dose-adjusted EPOCH-R for newly diagnosed double-hit lymphomas: phase 2 results from ALLIANCE A051701, an open-label, randomised, controlled, phase 2-3 trial.

BACKGROUND: High-grade B-cell lymphoma with rearrangements of MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6, known as double-hit lymphoma, is a highly aggressive malignancy with poor outcomes after standard chemoimmunotherapy. We aimed to study whether the addition of the BCL2-inhibitor venetoclax to chemoimmunotherapy in patients with double-hit lymphoma resulted in superior efficacy compared with chemotherapy alone. METHODS: ALLIANCE A051701 is an open-label, randomised, controlled, phase 2-3 trial in separate cohorts of patients with double-hit lymphoma and patients with double-expressor lymphoma. In this analysis, we report phase 2 results from the double-hit lymphoma cohort. Patients aged 18-80 years with newly diagnosed double-hit lymphoma and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2 were recruited from 41 hospitals and outpatient clinics in the USA. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive DA-EPOCH-R (dose-adjusted etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and rituximab) either alone (DA-EPOCH-R group) or with venetoclax (DA-EPOCH-R plus venetoclax group) using permuted block randomisation schedule. All patients and investigators were aware of group assignment. DA-EPOCH-R was administered on a 21-day schedule for up to six total cycles. Venetoclax was given as 600 mg by mouth daily on days 4-8 of cycle 1 and on days 1-5 of cycles 2-6. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival in the modified intent-to-treat population inclusive of all eligible patients with centrally confirmed double-hit lymphoma. The safety analysis population consisted of all evaluable patients who received at least one dose of protocol treatment. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03984448) and is closed to enrolment. FINDINGS: 36 patients were randomly assigned to the DA-EPOCH-R group and 37 to the DA-EPOCH-R plus venetoclax group between Oct 22, 2019, and Sept 18, 2020. Median age was 65 years (IQR 56-73) and baseline demographic factors were well balanced between groups, with 30 (45%) female and 36 (55%) male patients. Most patients (59 [89%]) were white, two (3%) were Asian, one (2%) was Black or African American, and four (6%) had unknown or unreported ethnicity. The majority of patients had MYC-BCL2 double-hit lymphoma (59 [89%] patients), advanced stage disease (57 [86%] patients), and high-intermediate/high-risk IPI score (42 [64%] patients). Median follow-up was 34·7 months (IQR 30·1-36·8). Median progression-free survival was 28·4 months (95% CI 5·2-not estimable) in the DA-EPOCH-R group (n=30) and 7·7 months (95% CI 4·7-NE) in the DA-EPOCH-R plus venetoclax group (n=36; hazard ratio [HR] 1·13, 95% CI 0·53-2·37; p=0·75). Deaths on treatment occurred in one (3%) patient in the DA-EPOCH-R group (due to dyspnoea; possibly related to treatment) and six (17%) patients in the DA-EPOCH-R plus venetoclax group (four due to sepsis [three at least possible related and one unrelated], two due to cardiac arrest [at least possibly related]), prompting early closure of the double-hit lymphoma cohort. The most common grade 3-4 non-haematological adverse event was febrile neutropenia, occurring in 15 (43%) of 35 patients in the DA-EPOCH-R plus venetoclax group and 11 (37%) of 30 patients in the DA-EPOCH-R group. The median overall survival has not been reached in either group. The 24-month overall survival estimates were 72% (95% CI 52-85) in the DA-EPOCH-R group compared with 52% (95% CI 33-68) in the DA-EPOCH-R plus venetoclax group (HR 2·49, 95% CI 1·03-6·04; p=0·038). INTERPRETATION: The addition of venetoclax to DA-EPOCH-R resulted in excess mortality, prompting early study closure. Robust accrual shows that prospective multicentre trials are feasible in double-hit lymphoma, and the outcomes in the DA-EPOCH-R group serve as a benchmark for future studies.
