Journal of Modern Laboratory Medicine 2015;(2):114-116
Objective To investigate the clinical distribution and antibacterial drug susceptibility of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa (mPa).Methods By looking at the patients’general information,disease information and the information of anti-microbial usage,cases of 53 strains of non-repetitive mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa were collected from hospitalized pa-tients from Jan 2013 to Dec 2013,and drug susceptibility were analyzed.Results A total of 53 strains of mucoid Pseudo-monas aeruginosa were isolated from sputum specimen,mainly elderly patients with a mean age of 66.7±9.1 years old;50 patients had chronic history of respiratory infections,all patients were used during the hospital stay of two or more kinds of antibiotics,used jointly only 11 cases of macrolides.All strains to commonly used antimicrobial agents showed a higher sen-sitivity in vitro,in addition to ticarcillin/clavulanate (64.2%),cefepime (60.4%),other drug sensitivity was higher than 70%.Conclusion Mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa was susceptible to chronic respiratory infection history of the elderly,its antimicrobial susceptibility was high in vitro,the use of antimicrobial agents in clinical was combined therapy compared,but utilization rate of macrolides drugs was low.

Objective To discuss the efficacy of alprostadil and levocarnitine in treatment of chronic renal failure combined with heart failure.Methods Totally 80 patients with chronic renal failure complicated with heart failure were selected,and randomly divided into two groups.The control group (39 cases) was given alprostadil.The observation group (41 cases) was given alprostadil and levocarnitine.The efficacy of alprostadil and levocamitine in treatment of chronic renal failure combined with heart failure was evaluated by cardiac fimction indexes,renal function indexes,SF-36 scale score,and adverse reaction during the treatment.Results Before treatment,there was no statistical significance on CO,CI,MVO,and EF between two groups.After treatment,the CO,CI,and MVO were decreased and lower in the observation group (P < 0.05).The EF was increased in the observation group and higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05).The EF had no changes in the control group.Before treatment,there was no statistical significance on CysC,BUN,and SCr between two groups before treatment,without statistical significance.After treatment,CysC,BUN,and SCr were decreased in two groups and lower in the observation group (P < 0.05).Before treatment,there was no statistical significance on SF-36 scores between two groups.After treatment,the physiological function,physical function,and general health were higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05).There was no statistical significance on the rest of the scores.During treatment,there was no statistical significance on adverse reaction between two groups.Conclusion Alprostadil and levocarnitine had a good curative effect on chronic renal failure combined with heart failure.It could improve the heart function by reducing cardiac load,improve the renal function by increasing glomerular filtration rate and improve the quality of life with good safety.It is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To construct the eukaryotic expression vector encoding IT15 gene and detect its expression in SH-SY5Y cells.Methods The exon1 of IT15 gene was amplified from genomic DNA isolated from a healthy adult and a Huntington disease patient lymphoblastoid cell lines by PCR.PCR products were subcloned into eukaryotic expression vector pEGFP-C1.The SH-SY5Y cells were transiently transfected with the recombinant plasmids and observed under fluorescence microscope.Western blot was used to detect the expression of the fusion protein.Results PCR products had approximately 170 and 310 bp specific segments.The recombinant eukaryotie expression plasmids were confirmed by restriction endonuclease analysis and sequencing.The N-terminal fragment of normal huntingtin primarily localized in the cytoplasim of SH-SY5Y cells,while the N-terminal fragment of mutant huntingtin aggregated both perinuclearly and intranuelearly.Conclusions The recombinant eukaryotic expression vectors encoding wild type and mutant IT15 gene fragments are useful for studying pathogenesis of Huntington disease.The Nterminal fragment of mutant huntingtin aggregats both perinuclearly and intranuclearly,which could be important for Huntington disease pathophysiology.

AIM: To explore the characteristics of motor evoked potential(MEP) and cortical excitability in Parkinson's disease by transcranial magnetic stimulation(TMS).METHODS: 20 normal volunteers were enrolled as control(group A),with the average age of(62.3?16.7) year old ranged from 52 to 79 years including 12 males and 8 females.MEP were assessed and compared separately between left and right hemispheres.21 patients with Parkinson's disease(PD) in asymmetry symptoms were performed in this study(group B),with the average age of(63.3?16.7) year old ranged from 46 to 80 years including 12 males and 9 females.UPDRS motor scores(UPDRSⅢ) were assessed before the check of cortical excitability(MEP).Motor evoked potentials(MEP) was assessed and compared separately on the minor and the serious bodyside,compared to control group.RESULTS: The indexes of MEP from both sides of normal control had no significant diversity.Amp was increased and both rest motor threshold(RMT) and cortical latency(CL) were also decreased significantly in PD patient compared to the normal control.On the serious side of PD,RMT decreased significantly compared to the minor side.Amp,CL and central motor conduct time(CMCT) changed without significant diversity between minor and serious bodyside.CONCLUSION: The motor cortical excitability is increased in PD patients.The excitability is higher with the more serious symptom side.The character of MEP in PD patients may be helpful to make a diagnosis and evaluate the severity of symptoms.

Objective To understand the cognition of clinical medical postgraduates' professional ethics,in order to provide the basis for the further development of graduate professional ethics education.Methods The survey was carried out among 650 graduate students of the first hospital of Jilin University by self-designed questionnaires.The questionnaires included the general situation and the understanding of professional ethics of medicine.All data were analyzed by SPSS 17.0,using Chi-square test to compare the results in different grades about the understanding of professional ethics.Results In this study,a total of 650 questionnaires were issued,and 629 valid questionnaires were collected with a recovery rate of 96.7%.Most graduates' professional values were in line with the socialist core values.For example,for the attitude of medical workers to accept red envelopes,410 graduate students (65.2%) firmly opposed to accepting this behavior.For the purpose of the study medicine,there was no statistically significant difference among different grades (P=0.273).For the attitude of red paper,the main problem in medical ethics education and the biggest factor for graduates,there was statistically significant difference among different grades (P=0.012,P=0.002,P=0.002,respectively).Conclusion At present,the professional ethics of postgraduates in clinical medicine is in good condition,but still needs to be improved.We can give further education and guidance to students for the problems existing in graduate students of different grades.
