Objective To characterize composition and antibiotic resistance of the pathogens isolated from patients' deep sputum with ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP) in PICU of our hospital,and give support to the administration of antibiotics early and reasonably in clinic.Methods The study was conducted during the period of January 2009 to December 2013 at PICU of the Children's Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine.One hundred and twenty-one cases of children who conformed to the diagnostic criteria of VAP after treated with ventilator were the object,the endotracheal aspirates were collected and transported to microbiology laboratory within 15 minutes.The pathogens were routinely analyzed and identified with WITEK60 and used Kirby-Bauer method for drug sensitive test,and identified with the special drug-resistant bacteria.Results Among 121 VAP diagnosed patients,127 pathogenic strains isolated from sputum specimen.Gram negative,Gram positive bacteria and fungi accounted for 64.57％ (82/127),29.92％ (38/127)and 5.51％ (7/127) respectively.Acinetobacter baumannii (25.61％,21/127),Escherichia coli (20.27％,17/127),Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (20.27 ％,17/127),Klebsiella pneumoniae (16.22％,12/127) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (9.46％,11/127) were frequently identified isolates among Gram negative bacteria.The resistant rate of Gram negative bacteria in β lactam antibiotics was 77.62％.Ten strains of Staphylococcus epidermis and 6 strains of Staphylococcus aureus were identified isolates among Gram positive bacteria.Except the sensitive to vancomycin and linezolid,Gram positive bacteria were resistance to cephalosporin and aminoglycosides.All fungi were sensitive to the anti-microbial agents.Conclusion The Gram negative bacteria were more prevalent than Gram positive bacteria and fungi in VAP and show high drug resistance.It is pivotal to administer anti-microbial agents early and reasonably for VAP children.To emphasize surveillance to the antibiotic resistance and grasp the characteristics of the drug resistance are much important to VAP therapy.

Objective:To clarify the changes in the bone marrow vascular system in the early stage of sepsis in animal model.Methods:A sepsis mouse model was established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP), and HE staining, immunofluorescence staining, flow cytometry and real-time quantitative PCR were used to comprehensively analyze the varieties of bone marrow vascular system in structure, the relative proportion of vascular endothelial cells and the expressions of damage-related genes at mRNA level.Results:A series of adaptive changes occurred in the bone marrow vascular system in the early stage of sepsis.Histological analysis showed that the bone marrow vascular structure was significantly remodeled.The average density of bone marrow sinusoids in the CLP group was (410.43±72.63)counts/mm 2, which was significantly higher than that in the sham group[(294.43±68.94)counts /mm 2, P<0.01]. The area of luminal pixels accounted for (43.46±3.21)%, which was significantly higher than that in the sham group[(30.28±4.44)%, P<0.001]. The exudation amount of evans blue in the bone marrow tissue of the CLP group was (0.42±0.12)ng/mg tissue, which was significantly higher than that in the sham group[(0.24±0.09)ng/mg tissue, P<0.05], suggesting increased vascular permeability.The results of flow cytometry analysis showed that the EC in bone marrow of the CLP group mice was in a proliferative state, with the proportion of Ki67 + endothelial cell increasing[(1.91±0.65)% vs.(5.06±1.10)%, P<0.01]. The mRNA levels of some genes related to the activation of vascular endothelial cells were up-regulated. Conclusion:Sepsis changes the structure and function of the bone marrow vascular system, and has a significant impact on the bone marrow microenvironment.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical significance of commonly used clinical inflammatory indicators in children with infectious diseases.Methods:A total of 354 children diagnosed with infectious diseases in our hospital from December 2018 to October 2020 were selected and divided into viral infection group(83 cases), sepsis group (65 cases), atypical pathogen infection group(23 cases), fungal infection group (11 cases), and bacterial infection group(172 cases). The data of serum amyloid A(SAA), procalcitonin(PCT), C-reactive protein(CRP), SAA/CRP, and interleukin (IL) in each group were collected.The fever peak, duration of fever, and fever subsidence time after admission were recorded.The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted, and the area under the curve(AUC), cut-off value, sensitivity and specificity were recorded.The correlation between fever and inflammatory indicators was analyzed.Results:The duration of fever in the atypical pathogen infection group was significantly higher than that in the other groups.Compared with the sepsis group, the differences regarding the levels of SAA, CRP, PCT, and IL-6 were statistically significant compared with those in the bacterial infection group, the atypical pathogen infection group, and the viral infection group (all P<0.05). SAA/CRP was the highest in the viral infection group, and its mean value was nearly twice compared with that in the sepsis group ( P<0.05). IL-10 was significantly different between bacterial infection group and viral infection group( P<0.05). Compared with the fungal infection group, the difference of interferon-γ was statistically significant compared with that in the bacterial infection group, viral infection group and sepsis group (all P<0.05). The ROC curves suggested that the AUC of SAA/CRP and IL-10 was the largest and the same in the viral infection group.The AUC of PCT in the sepsis group was the largest of 0.877, and the specificity was the highest at 91.7% when the PCT was 1.055 ng/mL.Correlation analysis found that SAA and CRP detected for the first time at admission were positively correlated with the time to heat remission. Conclusion:SAA/CRP has significant significance in differentiating sepsis and virus infection, and significantly increased PCT is an important sign of sepsis.

BACKGROUNDSteady-state bone marrow (SS-BM) and granulocyte colony-stimulating growth factor-primed BM/peripheral blood stem-cell (G-BM/G-PBSC) are the main stem-cell sources used in allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation. Here, we evaluated the treatment effects of SS-BM and G-BM/G-PBSC in human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-identical sibling transplantation.

METHODSA total of 226 patients (acute myelogenous leukemia-complete remission 1, chronic myelogenous leukemia-chronic phase 1) received SS-BM, G-BM, or G-PBSC from an HLA-identical sibling. Clinical outcomes (graft-versus-host disease [GVHD], overall survival, transplant-related mortality [TRM], and leukemia-free survival [LFS]) were analyzed.

RESULTSWhen compared to SS-BM, G-BM gave faster recovery time to neutrophil or platelet (P < 0.05). Incidence of grade III-IV acute GVHD and extensive chronic GVHD (cGVHD) was lower than seen with SS-BM (P < 0.05) and similar to G-PBSC. Although the incidence of cGVHD in the G-BM group was similar to SS-BM, both were lower than G-PBSC (P < 0.05). G-BM and G-PBSC exhibited similar survival, LFS, and TRM, but were significantly different from SS-BM (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in leukemia relapse rates among the groups (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSG-CSF-primed bone marrow shared the advantages of G-PBSC and SS-BM. We conclude that G-BM is an excellent stem-cell source that may be preferable to G-PBSC or SS-BM in patients receiving HLA-identical sibling hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation.

Sepsis is a common clinical critical illness and causing serious public health problem worldwide. Lipopolysaccharide(LPS) release from the cytoderm of Gram-negative bacteria and is a pivotal initiating factor in the development of sepsis,which can induce pathological processes such as inflammation, coagulopathy and immunosuppression. Therefore,the research progress in LPS-related region is of great sig-nificance for understanding the pathogenesis of sepsis and developing new diagnostic and therapeutic methods for sepsis. This review summarized the related research progress of LPS and sepsis based on the recent litera-tures.
