Objective To extract and purify a polysaccharide SEP from eggs of sea urchin Strongylocentrotus nudus. and to determine its purity, molecular weight and immunological activity in vitro. Methods The orthogonal design was employed to obtain the best possible combination of the critical parameters for polysaccharide extraction. By ultrafiltration, DE-AE Sepharose Fast Flow anion-exchange chromatography and Sephacryl S-400 gel filtration chromatography, the deproteinated crude polysaccharide was purified. The homogeneity of SEP was proved by HPLC, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and paper chromatography. Its molecular weight was determined by HPGPC in reference to standVd T-series Dextran. Lymphocyte proliferation assay was made to investigate the immuno-modulating activity of SEP. Results and Conclusion The results indicated SEP was a homogeneous polysaccharide. Its molecular weight was about 1950KD. SEP increased remarkably spleen lymphocyte proliferation. The homogeneous polysaccharide SEP showed significantly immunological activity in vitro.

OBJECTIVE To know the clinical antibacterial use by line category in pediatric outpatients and emergency departments.METHODS The antibacterial use by line category from the 38998 prescriptions of pediatric outpatient and emergency departments of a hospital from Jul 1st to Dec 31st 2008 according to the medicament amount and frequency were surveyed and analyzed.RESULTS First-line antibacterial drug DDDs accounted for 37.4% and 24.7% of the total amount;second-line drug DDDs accounted for 48.7% and 40.8% of the total amount and the third-line drug DDDs accounted for 13.9% and 35.0% of the total amount.The top three by total amount were cefmetazole sodium injection,azithromycin sodium injection and Cefuroxime sodium injection.According to the sorting method of DDDs,the top three were cefprozil dry suspension,azithromycin sodium injection and amoxicillin sodium clavulanate potassium injection.CONCLUSIONS Frequency of the third-line antibacterial drug using is relatively high.Clinicians have a tendency to skip a line category in using drugs.Effective measures should be taken to strengthen the management of antibacterials.

Objective To investigate the features of the memory function disturbance in patients of generalized seizures and the correlation between the memory function and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy(1H-MRS).Methods The clinical memory scale of 45 general seizures and 20 normal age and sex-matched controls wss measured and a1 H-MRs was performed in the bilateral hippoeampal.The levels of NAA.Cho.Cr and the ratios of NAA/Cr+Cho were compared between these two groups.Meanwhile,tHe correlation coefficients was calculated and the results of clinical memory scale scoreB and the level of NAA,Cho.Cr and the ratios of NAA/Cr+Cho in groups were compared.Results As compared with the controls.the scores of pointing memory(17.19±5.86),associational learning(20.00±6.77),image free memory(18.44±6.62),association memory of portrait(13.19±6.62)and memory quotient (MQ,79.07±20.20)excepts insignificant figure recognition wcrc significandy decreased in patients of seizures(t=4.794-10.224,all P<0.01);The scores of scale and MQ of both the group of patients who wok antiepileptic drugs(AEDs)and the group of patients whose frequency exceeded 3 per month were significantly lower than the group who didn't take AEDs and the group whose frequency was lower than 3 per month(t=3.267-6.537,all P<0.01).The volumes of hippocampal formations(2.45 ±0.25 on left and 2.56 ±0.31 on right),the level of NAA(12.93 ±1.73 on left and 11.88 ±1.69 on right),Cho(15.02 ±0.86 on left and 14.94 ±0.96 on right),Cr(11.86 ±0.71 on left and 10.71 ±0.42 on right)and the ratios of NAA/Cr+Cho(0.48 ±0.08 on left and 0.39 ±0.07 on riht)in the group of pailents of generalized seizures were significantly difference than those in the controls(t=4.103-5.768,all P<0.01).Patients with seizures showed significant correlation between tlle scores of all items.MQ in clinical memory scale and NAA,NAA/Cr+Cho ratio(r=0.489-0.727,all P<0.01),and inverse correlation between the scores and MQ and Cho of in the bilateral hippocampal(r=-0.604-0.484,all P<0.01).However,there was no correlation between the scores and MQ and Cr of in the bilateral hippocampal.Condusions The patients of the general seizures do have the problem of the disturbance of short-term memory including acoustic memory and some visual memory.Both the high frequency of seizure and AEDs could affect the short-term memory function.The correlation between the scores of all the items and MQ in clinical memory scale proved that lack of nerve cell and hyperplasia of gliocyte was one of the reasons of the short-term memory disorder in epileptic.

Objective To develop a multiple polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique based assay for rapid detection of vanA, vanB, vanD and vanM in high-level vancomycin-resistant enterococci.Methods After analyzing the uncleotide sequence divergence among D-Ala∶D-Lac ligase genes, an multiplex PCR assay for vanA, vanB, vanD and vanM genes in high-level vancomycin-resistant enterococci were designed.By using recombination plasmids containing vanA, vanB, vanD and vanM genes as positive control, and non-vancomycin resistant enterococci (non-VRE) common pathogenic bacterial DNA as negative control, the sensitivity and specificity of the assay were evaluated.Fifty vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) isolates were detected by the assay.Fifty clinical strains of VRE were isolated from 9 hospitals in Shanghai from January 2006 to December 2014.The results were compared with the conventional PCR and sequencing methods.Results The identity of the D-Ala∶D-Lac ligase genes were 60.8%-71.3% of vanA, vanB, vanD and vanM genes.The multiplex PCR assay could identify the genotypes of the positive control samples accurately.No false positive results were found in negative control samples.Among fifty VRE strains detected by the assay, 18 were vanA genotype and 32 were vanM genotype.Comparison of the multiplex PCR assay and sequencing methods revealed sensitivity and specificity of 100%.The detection limit of the assay was 2×10 copies/PCR reaction.The experiment could be done within 3.5 h.Conclusions A multiplex PCR assay is developed to rapid identify the genotype of the high-level vancomycin-resistant enterococci, which can be used for the molecular epidemiology research and detection of VRE.

Objective To observe the clinical effects and safety degree of treating children's cough variant asthma for mite allergy with Montelukast sodium combined with Flixotide. Methods Forty cases of infant patients with cough variant asthma for mite allergy in Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center from February 2012 to Octo-ber 2013 were taken as research subjects and randomly divided into treatment group and control group,each group 20 cases. The control group was treated with Flixotide aerosol;the treatment group took extra medicine Montelukast sodium chewable tablets. The treatment period covered half a year. After treatment both groups were observed for 3 months. During the treatment period the recovery process of clinical symptoms and adverse reaction of all the infant patients were observed and recorded. The data was analyzed with statistical software SPSS 17. 0. Results The duration of cough im-proved and solved in treatment group in the acute phase was(5. 82 ± 0. 90)d,much shorter than that of the control group[(6. 54 ± 1. 30)d],and the difference was of statistical significance(P ﹤ 0. 05). In the procedure,4 times of cough scores of treatment group[(3. 90 ± 0. 90)scores,(0. 90 ± 0. 30)scores,(0. 70 ± 0. 30)scores,(1. 90 ± 0. 70) scores]declined apparently more than those of control group[(4. 10 ± 0. 70)scores,(1. 20 ± 0. 40)scores,(1. 30 ± 0. 50)scores,(2. 40 ± 0. 80)scores];the difference was of statistical significance(all P ﹤ 0. 05);and the both were rebounded after 3 months without medicine. In terms of pulmonary function PD20,the patients in treatment group [(0. 46 ± 0. 08)mg vs(1. 76 ± 0. 07)mg]showed better improvement than those in control group[(0. 46 ± 0. 07) mg vs(1. 70 ± 0. 07)mg],and the difference was of statistical significance(P ﹤ 0. 05). Conclusions Treating chil-dren's cough variant asthma for mite allergy with Montelukast sodium combined with Flixotide is of good therapy effect in the acute phase and the control phase,worthy of further clinical application.
