Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess how effective metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) is in diagnosing infections related to marine trauma at a hospital in Zhuhai, analyzing data from 14 patients over a 3-year period.
- - Most patients (78.6%) had marine-related injuries, while infections were confirmed through a combination of culture and mNGS methods, with a significant recovery rate following surgical intervention and antibiotic treatment.
- - The findings highlight that mNGS is valuable for diagnosing water-exposed infections and can help identify multiple pathogens, improving treatment guidance for severe infections with unknown causes.

Introduction: We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of intravesical mitomycin compared with gemcitabine on the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
Methods: A systematic literature search up to November 2021 was done and 6 studies included 389 subjects with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer at the start of the study; 197 of them were provided with intravesical-mitomycin and 192 with intravesical gemcitabine. The studies reported the relationships about the effect of intravesical mitomycin compared with gemcitabine on the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.
