Objective:Based on the national standard of Classification and Codes for Fixed Assets(GB/T 14885),it created a catalogue of the fixed assets specific for hospital,which became a tool for the delicacy management of the fixed assets in hospitals.Methods:Based on the compiling principles and application scope,it conducted comparative analysis between the national standard and the catalogue which was created by the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University.Results:The amounts of the categories were significantly less than that of national standard.Among them,the categories of medical equipment and furniture were clearly more than the national standard.Conclusion:The effect of the national standard was limited in the delicacy management of the fixed assets in hospitals.However,the specific catalogue helped to uniform the value management and material management,to support information system of fixed assets in hospitals and enhance the level of delicacy management of the fixed assets in hospitals.

Objective To determine the role of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK1/2) in aldosterone-induced rat mesangial cells (RMCs) proliferation. Methods RMCs were obtained from intact glomeruli of 4- to 6-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats and characterized according to published methods. RMCs between passages 5 and passages 10 were used. Protein levels of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) in RMCs were analyzed by Western blotting. The cells were divided into the following groups: control group, PD98059 (10 (μmol/L) group, eplerenone (1 μmol/L) group, aldosterone (100 nmol/L) group, aldosterone (100 nmol/L) +PD98059 (10 μmol/L) group, aldosterone (100 nmol/L)+eplerenone (1 μmol/L) group. ERK1/2 activity was measured by Western blotting. Cell proliferation of RMCs was evaluated by [3H]-thymidine uptake measurements.Results MR protein expression in RMCs was confirmed by Western blotting. Aldosterone activated ERK1/2, and the maximal ERK1/2 activation induced by aldosterone was at a concentration of 100 nmol/L. Aldosterone (100 nmol/L)-induced activation of ERK1/2 peaked at 10 minutes (P＜0.05).Pretreatment with a selective MR antagonist eplerenone (1 μmol/L) significantly attenuated aldosterone-induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation. Aldosterone (100 nmol/L) treatment for 30 hours increased [3H]-thymidine incorporation of RMCs (135% ±8% of controls, P ＜0.05). Cellular proliferation induced by aldosterone could be prevented by pretreatment with eplerenone or an ERK (MEK) inhibitor PD988059. Conclusion Aldosterone induces RMCs proliferation through MR and ERK1/2 activation, which may contribute to the pathogenesis of glomerular mesangial injury.

Aim To investigate the effect of N-n-butyl haloperidol iodide(F2) on mitochondria-dependent apoptotic pathway of H9c2 cardiac myocytes during hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R) injury.Methods The H/R models of H9c2 cardiac myocytes were established.The H9c2 cardiac myocytes were randomly divided into five groups: control group(C group), hypoxia/reoxygenation group(H/R group), F2 low concentration group(L), F2 medium concentration group(M), F2 high concentration group(H).Apoptotic rate was evaluated by flow cytometry(FCM).The levels of Cyto C, Bcl-2, Bax were observed by Western blot.Caspase-3 activity was measured with colorimetry.Results Compared with H/R group, F2 low, medium and high concentrations group could significantly decrease apoptosis rate and increase the ratio of Bcl-2 to Bax proteins and inhibit the release of Cyto C into the cytosolic fraction, and decrease caspase-3 activity.Conclusion F2 can protect H9c2 cardiac myocytes against H/R-induced injury through interfering in mitochondria-dependent pathway.

Objective To investigate de-escalation of empiric broad-spectrum antibiotics treatment for patients in intensive care unit (ICU).Methods Data of the patients discharged from ICU in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University from July 1 to December 31 of 2012 and from July 1 to December 31 of 2013 were retrospectively reviewed.Patients with initial use of empirical broad-spectrum antibiotics within 3 d after ICU admission were included in the study.Clinical data including status of infection,the initial empiric antimicrobial therapy,pathogens culture and adjustment of antibiotics in 5 days were analyzed.Results A total of 841 patients were discharged from ICU during the study periods and antibiotics were used in 786 (93.5％) patients.Among 786 patients,389 (49.5％) were treated empirically with broad-spectrum antibiotics,but only 269 (69.2％) had evidences of bacterial infections.Of the 389 patients with empiric antibiotics use,de-escalation of antibiotics was applied only in 6 (1.54％) patients within 5 days after the initiation of treatment.In 269 patients with evidence of infection,specimen sampling and culture were performed in 248 (92.2％) patients within 3 days,among which 165 samples were positive,and the clinical isolates were mainly multi-drug resistant gram negative bacilli and colonized bacteria in oropharyngeal cavity.De-escalation was applied only in 4 (1.49％,4/269) patients with evidences of bacterial infections.Conclusion Broad-spectrum antibiotics as initial empiric therapy is common for patients in ICU,however de-escalation of empiric therapy is rarely applied even in patients with positive results in pathogen isolation and culture.

To study the variation and significance of plasma coagulation factor VII (FVII) in different kinds of ischemia heart disease (IHD) and examine its relation with plasma lipid and gene polymorphism. FVIIa was determined with one stage clotting assay by using a recombinant soluble tissue factor (rsTF). FVIIc was measured with one stage clotting assay. FVIIag was quantified with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Polymorphism was analyzed with PCR-urea-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Our results showed that FVIIa in stable angina (SA), unstable angina (UA), obsolete and acute myocardial infraction (OMI, AMI) patients was higher than those of normal group with the differences being significant within any two groups. FVIIag in UA, OMI and AMI was higher than those in SA and normal groups. There were positive correlations between FVIIa and serum triglycerides, FVIIa and FVIIc, FVIIc and FVIIag. FVII-323 0/10 bp polymorphism analysis was performed in 60 patients and 0/10 bp polymorphism was found in 5 cases. FVIIc and FVIIag were much lower in cases of 0/10 bp groups than those in cases of 0/0 bp groups. It is concluded that there was activation of extrinsic coagulation pathway in every kind of IHD to different extent. FVIIa was the risk factor in the development of IHD, and more sensitive in reflecting the severity of cardiovacutar disease than FVIIc or FVIIag. FVIIa was higher in OMI, which may be one of the risk factors of re-infraction. Serum triglyceride may indirectly lead to the development of IHD by increasing the level of FVIIa. FVII-323 0/10 bp polymorphism was present in Chinese patients with IHD and it was correlated with the level of FVIIc, FVIIag in plasma. 10 bp allelomorphic gene was a protective factor against thrombogenesis.

AIM:To investigate the role of peripheral blood leukocytes and polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) on intestinal injury following mesenteric ischemia/reperfusion (IR) in rats. METHODS: Twenty adult, male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 200-230 g, were randomly divided into two groups. The control group (CON) consisting of 10 rats was subjected to laparotomy and separation of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) only. The ischemia/reperfusion (IR) group consisting of 10 rats, was subjected to laparotomy, followed by occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) by an atraumatic microvascular clamp for 30 min. At the end of ischemic period in IR, the microvascular clamp was removed and the intestinal segment was reperfused for 60 min. The pathological changes of the ileal mucosal tissue were evaluated. The apoptosis of intestinal mucosal epithelial cells was examined by terminal deoxylnucleotidy-l transferase mediated-dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL). The enzymatic activity of casapse-3 in mucosal cells was determined using a colorimetric assay. The percentages of apoptotic peripheral blood leukocytes and PMNs were measured by flow cytometry using Annexin-V/PI double staining assay. The numbers of peripheral blood leukocytes in each animal was measured at baseline, 30 min of ischemia, and 30 min and 60 min of reperfusion. RESULTS: (1) Compared to CON group animals, the most severe mucosal injury was observed in IR group under optical microscope. (2) The number of apoptotic mucosal epithelia cells and enzymatic activity of caspase-3 were significantly higher in IR than those in CON group (P

Objective To explore specimen sampling for microbial culture in ICU patients with documented infections in order to offer clinical evidence for improving the rational use of antibiotics.Methods Patients with documented infection on the first day after admission into ICU and discharged from ICU from July to December 2012 and from July to December 2013 were enrolled in the study.Clinical data including presence or absence of infection,initial antimicrobial therapy,microorganism specimen sampling and culture were retrospectively analyzed.Results Of 841 patients discharged from ICU,443 had evidence of infections and received antimicrobial therapy on the admission day,and only 30 (6.8％) of them had microbiological detection results prior to treatment.There were microbial specimens available at infection sites on the admission day in 369 cases,and 360 cases (97.6％) of them were sampled in the first three days after ICU admission,while only 119 cases (33.1％) were sampled before the first dose of antimicrobial therapy.Specimens sampled were sputum (56.4％) in the majority,followed by the blood (17.4％).Further analysis of 269 infected patients receiving initial broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy also showed that only 33.5％ cases were sampled before the first dose of broad-spectrum antimicrobial administration.The positive isolation rate of multi-drug resistant isolates including A.baumannii,S.maltophilia and B.cepacia from specimens sampled after first dose of initial broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy were significantly higher than those sampled before antimicrobial therapy,P ＜ 0.05.There was no significant difference in isolation rate of Staph.aureus and Enterobacteriaceae between samples obtained before and after first dose of initial broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy.Conclusions Few evidence of pathogenic microorganisms was available before initial antimicrobial therapy in ICU patients.Although sampling rate of microbial specimens is high,the most of them are sampled after the first dose of antimicrobial administration,and the patentially contaminated specimens such as sputum in predominance,obviously decrease the reliability of authentic results obtained from microorganism culture.
