Chinese Journal of Infection Control 2015;(6):366-369
Objective To investigate the contamination of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) from object surface of key departments in a hospital,and identify whether these CRAB were homologous. Methods Environmental hygienic monitoring in intensive care unit (ICU),emergency intensive care unit(EICU), hemodialysis room and operating room was conducted.Acinetobacter baumannii (A.baumannii)isolated from ICU and EICU environmental specimens were amplified and typed by enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-poly-merase chain reaction (ERIC-PCR).Results Except hand hygiene of health care workers in EICU was qualified, bacterial count of object surface of ICU and EICU were all unqualified;detection results of specimens from hemodi-alysis room and operating room were all qualified.A total of 53 specimens were taken from object surface of ICU and EICU,7 (13.21 %)A.baumannii isolates were isolated,and all were CRAB isolates,6 of which were of the same genotype and were identical with A.baumannii from patients’sputum.Conclusion CRAB isolated from object surface in key departments is homologous,cleaning and disinfection of environmental object surface should be inten-sified to reduce the occurrence of healthcare-associated infection.

Objective To evaluate the effect of subfascial endoscopic perforator surgery(SEPS) for the(treatment) of recurrent venous ulcer.Methods SEPS Was preformed on 56 limbs with recurrent venous(ulcer),and ulcer healing was assessed at follow up.Results Fifty-five limb ulcers healed in 10~49 days,one limb ulcer was not healed after 90 days,but healed after ligation of lesser saphenous vein.The patients were followed up for 1 to 3 years,1 case recurred after 6 months and it healed with antibiotic treatment;2 cases recurred after 18 months,and both healed after high ligation of lesser saphenous vein.Conclusions SEPS is effective and safe in the treatment of recurrent venous ulcer.SEPS is minitraumatic with few(complications).

Doxorubicin loaded micelles were prepared by film-hydration method using stearyl sulfadiazine (SA-SD) which is pH sensitive, methoxy (polyethylene glycol)-2000-1, 2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (mPEG-DOPE) and transactivator of transcription (TAT) peptide conjugated PEG-DOPE. Mean diameter of the pH-sensitive micelles was about 20 nm with a (99.1 +/- 2.1) % drug entrapment efficiency at pH 7.4. Flow cytometry studies revealed that the simple TAT micelles was taken up rapidly at the same level at pH 6.8 and pH 7.4. However, the pH-sensitive micelles entered the tumor cell less at pH 7.4 and significantly increase at pH 6.8. After 1 h incubation at pH 6.8, the amount of the pH-sensitive micelles taken up by cancer cell 4T1 was almost similar to simple TAT micelles. The confocal microscopy indicated that the pH-sensitive micelles entered the 4T1 cells at pH 6.8 more than at pH 7.4. It was indicated that the pH-sensitive micelles could shield TAT peptide at normal pH 7.4 and deshield it at pH 6.8. Hence, TAT peptides lead the drug-loaded micelles into the tumor cells and killed them selectively. The pH-sensitive micelle may provide a novel strategy for design of cancer targeting drug delivery system.

Objective To investigate the clinical liver function protective effect of Shuganning injection for treatment of patients with drug poisoning.Methods One hundred and forty patients with drug poisoning consistent with thecriteria of enrollment into the study were admitted into the Department of Emergency Medicine in the First Hospital of Jilin University-the Eastern Division from January 2015 to August 2016, and they were randomly divided into observation group and control group by the computer generated random numbers, 70 cases in each group. After admission, all the cases were treated with routine treatment including detoxification, removal of toxin, organ protection, symptomatic and supporting treatment, etc. Based on the routine treatment, additionally, Shuganning injection 20 mL+ 10% glucose injection 250 mL, intravenous drip slowly, once a day was given in the observation group; the therapeutic course was 14 days in both groups. The changes of serum glutamic transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and total bilirubin (TBiL) levels were determined before and 7 and 14 days after treatment respectively to evaluate the situation of liver function in the two groups.Results Before treatment, there were no statistical significant differences in the levels of serum ALT, AST and TBil in the two groups (allP > 0.05); with the prolongation of treatment, the above-mentioned indexes of the two groups were gradually reduced, on the 14th day after treatment, they reached the lowest levels, and the degree of decrease in level on the 14th day in the observation group was more significant than that in the control group [ALT (U/L): 32.6±10.8 vs. 98.3±34.5, AST (U/L): 39.4±14.3 vs. 138.5±25.6, TBil (μmol/L): 4.8±1.7 vs. 13.2±2.3, allP < 0.05].Conclusion Shuganning injection has a protective effect on liver function in patients with drug poisoning.

Objective To analyze histomorphometrical characteristics of bone and bone marrow tissue in the vertebral lamina of patients with osteofluorosis, and to explore the influencing factors on signal intensity in MRI. Methods Spinal MRI of 109 patients (57 men, 52 women;age range 32-80 years;mean age 52 years) with osteofluorosis from December 2001 to May 2012 was analyzed retrospectively, including 48 patients in cervical segment, 31 in thoracic segment and 30 in lumbar segment. 36 pa?tients (16 men, 20 women;mean age 51 years;age range 34-68 years) had undergone laminectomy and the vertebral lamina speci?mens were collected. The cervical MRI of 48 patients with matching gender and age (26 men, 22 women;mean age 51 years, age range 34-71 years) was selected as control group, who were from areas where fluorosis is not endemic. All patients were divided in?to vertebra low, medium and high signal groups according to T1WI of MRI. The vertebra signal to noise ratio measure and stan?dardization of signal intensity were performed. Osteosclerosis, osteoporosis and normal bone were differentiated under spinal X?ray plain film. Combined with histomorphometric analysis of vertebra lamina in 36 patients, correlation between MRI signal intensity, histomorphometric parameters of the vertebra lamina and influencing factors on signal intensity were studied. Results 77 pa?tients (70.6%, 77/109) had osteosclerosis indicated by appearance of spine under X?ray, 29 (26.6%, 29/109) osteoporosis and 3 (2.8%, 3/109) normal bone. T1WI of MRI showed 25 cases had low signal vertebra, 52 medium signal and 32 high signal. The ver? tebra SNR in patients with osteofluorosis was lower on T1WI, T2WI and short time inversion recovery (STIR) sequences, compared with control group. Those with a low versus high signal on T1WI had 6.04 times the odds of osteosclerosis (OR=6.04, 95%CI 2.44-14.91, P<0.001). Histomorphometry of vertebral lamina in 36 patients with osteofluorosis was performed, revealing that not only the trabecular bone volume had changed, but also did the adipocyte volume and hemopoietic cell volume in the bone marrow tis?sues. Compared with normal reference values, trabecular bone volume was significantly increased (47.7%± 13.3% vs. 14.7%± 4.3%) (P<0.001);adipocyte volume was significantly decreased (12.3%±9.1%vs. 50.5%±8.7%);hematopoietic cell volume was decreased (40.0%±7.0%vs. 42.5%±8.5%) (P=0.038). There were inverse associations between trabecular bone volume and adipo?cyte volume (r=-0.869, P<0.001), and between trabecular bone volume and T1WI (r=-0.851, P<0.001) found by Pearson correla?tion test. In contrast, there were positive associations between T1WI and adipocyte volume (r=0.927, P<0.001). Conclusion The vertebra T1WI signal intensity is decreased in patients with osteofluorosis, resulting from increase of trabecular bone volume and re?duction of adipocyte volume. The vertebra STIR signal intensity is decreased, mainly caused by increase of trabecular bone volume.
