This paper elaborated the significance of accessible bathroom design, and analyzed the physiological, mental and behavioral characteristics of persons with physical disability. According to their special needs and accessible design concepts, the design principles which consist of safety, independence, individuality, usability and amenity were discussed. Besides, the design points for building modules and facilities were summarized.

OBJECTIVE To explore the phenotype and genotype of Klebsiella and Escherichia coli producing extended-spectrum ?-lactamases(ESBLs).METHODS The producing ESBLs strains in 110 E.coli and 94 Klebsiella isolates were determined according to disk diffusion test,recommended by NCCLS and the drug-resistant genes such as TEM,SHV,CTX-M-1,CTX-M-2 and CTX-M-9 were detected by PCR and sequencing.RESULTS The producing ESBLs rates were 36.2%,42.7% and 39.7% in Klebsiella,E.coli,and in both two strains,respectively.The positive rate in detecting ESBLs by CTX and CTX/CLAV was higher(66.7%);the negative rates were 68.1% in E.coli,64.7% in Klebsiella when using CAZ alone and CAZ/CLAV.The rates of TEM,SHV,CTX-M-1,CTX-M-2 and CTX-M-9 were 54.3%,38.3%,21.0%,24.7% and 70.4%,respectively,in producing ESBLs isolations.The CTX-M genotype was predominant,(91.4%);the isolations(71.6%) contained more than two resistance genes.CONCLUSIONS More attention should be payed on ESBLs producing E.coli and K.pneumoniae strains.

Objective:Imatinib is extensively used as a first-line therapeutic agent for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) at the chronic phase (CP). Although CML patients undergoing imatinib treatment are enrolled mainly in the Glivec International Patient Assistance Program (GIPAP) in China since 2003, limited data have been reported on the long-term outcome of these patients. This study aims to compare the treatment response and prognosis of CML-CP patients who received different treatments from January 2003 to December 2013 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University. Methods:A total of 295 patients were enrolled, includ-ing 185, 30, 50, and 30 patients for imatinib, interferon-alpha (IFN-α) plus Ara-C, hydroxycarbamide (HU), or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) treatments, respectively. Results:Patients in imatinib and Allo-HSCT groups achieved excellent complete hematologic remission (CHR) (i.e., 96.7%vs. 96.7%), complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) (i.e., 89.7%vs. 93.3%), and com-plete molecular remission (CMoR) (i.e., 49.7%vs. 83.3%, P=0.001). However, significantly low rates of CHR, CCyR, McyR, and CMoR were observed in IFN-αand HU groups. Moreover, patients from imatinib group showed longer overall survival (OS) time than patients from other groups (P<0.001), even patients in Allo-HSCT group (10-year OS, 89.0%vs. 67.0%, P<0.001) because of high risk of Allo-HSCT-related complication. Multivariate analysis showed that receiving imatinib treatment (HR=5.267, 95%CI:1.054-1.940, P=0.022) and achieving CCyR (HR=9.541, 95%CI:1.692-10.513, P=0.002) were independent predictors for OS. Conclusion:Imatinib treatment may be an optimal first-line choice for Chinese patients with CML-CP who have not received any previous treatments.
