Objective To investigate antimicrobial resistance of Escherichia coli (E.coli)and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K.pneumoniae),antimicrobial use density(AUD),as well as relation between antimicrobial resistance and AUD in a ter-tiary first-class hospital.Methods Antimicrobial resistance rates of clinically-isolated E.coli and K.pneumoniae,AUD of carbapenems and quinolones,as well as relation between resistance and AUD in 2013-2015 were statistically analyzed. Results Correlation analysis of antimicrobial resistance of bacteria and AUD showed that the decrease in resistance rate of E.coli to levofloxacin was related to the decrease in the use density of quinolones(r=0.61,P=0.03);increase in resist-ance rate of K.pneumoniae to imipenem was related to the increase in the use density of carbapenems(r=0.78,P<0.01). Conclusion Antimicrobial use is one of the causes of bacterial resistance,management on antimicrobial use needs to be strengthened to reduce the threat of bacterial resistance to human health.

Objective To evaluate the effect of a protein kinase CK2 inhibitor on intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species and DNA double?stand break in human non?small cell lung cancer H460 cells. Methods H460 cells were exposed to 0, 12?5, 25.0, and 50.0μmol/L quinalizarin, a specific inhibitor of protein kinase CK2, for 24 hours. The changes in protein and mRNA levels of CK2 subunits were measured. Flow cytometry was used to measure changes in the intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species in H460 cells after 4 or 24 hours of quinalizarin treatment. Immunofluorescence assays were performed to determine the effect of the CK2 inhibitor onγ?H2 AX expression and the average fluorescent number ofγ?H2 AX foci in H460 cells. Comparison was made by analysis of variance and t test. Results There were no significant differences in protein or mRNA levels of CK2 subunits in H460 cells after quinalizarin treatment ( CK2α,0μmol vs. 12?5 μmol/L, P=0?966;0 μmol/L vs. 25 μmol/L, P=0?355;0 μmol/L vs. 50 μmol/L, P=0?864, CK2α’ , 0 μmol/L vs. 12?5μmol/L,P=0?409;0μmol/L vs. 25μmol/L,P=0?833;0μmol/L vs. 50 μmol/L, P=0?0. 746, CK2β, 0 μmol/L vs. 12?5 μmol/L, P=0?532;0 μmol/L vs. 25 μmol/L, P=0?830;0 μmol/L vs. 50 μmol/L, P= 0?061 ) . The intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species were substantially elevated in H460 cells with the increase in quinalizarin concentration and treatment time. Different concentrations of quinalizarin resulted in dose?and time?dependent increases in the numbers of γ?H2 AX foci after 4 and 24 hours of treatment ( treated by Quianlizarin for 4 or 24 h, 0 μmol/L vs. 12?5μmol/L,12?5 μmol/L vs. 25 μmol/L, 25 μmol/L vs. 50 μmol/L, all P=0?000, concentration is 12?5μmol/L,25 μmol/L or 50 μmol/L, 4 h vs. 24 h, all all P=0?000 ) . Conclusions Quinalizarin can increase the intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species and DNA double?stand break in H460 cells by inhibition of protein kinase CK2 activity. This study provides a theoretical basis for using quinalizarin as a potential radiosensitizer for lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the effect of continuous quality improvement on subjective well-being quality of life and satisfaction of esophageal cancer patients. Methods A total of 120 esophageal cancer patients in our hospital were randomly divided into two groups, 60 cases in the observation group treated with continuous quality improvement while the other 60 cases in the control group treated with routine care. The two groups were compared in terms of subjective well-being,quality of life and nursing satisfaction. Results Before the intervention, there were no significant differences between the two groups in view of the quality of life scale score and subjective well-being score (P>0.05). After the intervention, in view of symptoms, the scores on all the items in the boservation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05), except constipation, economic difficulty and diarrhea and the function items were higher. The subjective satisfaction of the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Continuous quality improvement care can promote the improvement of subjective well-being, improve the quality of life and satisfaction of patients with esophageal cancer.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB) in patients with unexplained liver disease complicated with massive ascites or coagulopathy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed from patients underwent TJLB in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhoukou Central Hospital, Shangqiu First People's Hospital and Jincheng People's Hospital from March 2015 to January 2022 due to unexplained liver disease complicated with massive ascites or coagulopathy. A total of 37 patients were included, including 21 males and 16 females, aged (53.5±11.9) years. According to different puncture points, the patients were divided into two groups: transhepatic right vein TJBL and transhepatic middle vein TJBL. The obtained liver tissue sampling effect, puncture times, complications were analyzed.Results:The success rate of TJLB was 97.3%(36/37). Thirty-six patients were able to obtain more than three segments of liver tissue and obtain histological diagnosis, and the pathological diagnosis rate was 100.0%(36/36). The number of puncture times, the amount of hepatic tissue and the number of portal areas in the right hepatic vein group (21 cases) were (3.7±0.9), (3.7±0.7) and (6.5±0.9) respectively, and those in the middle hepatic vein group (15 cases) were (3.7±0.7), (3.7±0.7) and (6.3±0.8) respectively. There were no significant differences between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:TJLB is safe and feasible for patients with unexplained liver disease complicated with massive peritoneal effusion and coagulopathy. Good liver tissue specimens can be obtained by TJLB from both right hepatic vein and middle hepatic vein.
