Objective To explore the correlative factors of asthma after bronchiolitis.Methods Clinical data from 115 hospitalized patients with bronchiolitis were collected from Jan.2002 to May 2003,including age,gender,incidence season,family asthma history,birth weight,eczema,severity of bronchiolitis,pathogen,total and specific immunoglobulin E(IgE),overweight,smoking during pregnancy and feeding patterns;and the data of respiratory tract infection and wheezing onset in those cases were collected by clinic sevice and telephone follow-up in post-discharge for 5 years;the pollution status in living environment(coal dust and mine especially) and animal contact history(especially cats and dogs) were recorded.And the independent effect of risk factors was obtained,Logistic regression models were created for each outcome variable.Results Thirty-nine(33.9%) cases of 115 children with brochiolitis developed into asthma.There were significant differences between asthma and non-asthma group in family asthma history,recurrent lower respiratory tract infection(LRTI) under 1 year old,onset age,severity extent and obesity(P =0,0,0.004,0.004,0.020,respectively).The factors that contribute to the risk of asthma onset were incidence season,severe bronchiolitis,parental asthma,eczema and recurrent LRTI(OR=0.49,3.82,6.12,3.76 and 3.14,respectively P=0.000 7,0.026 0,0,0.030 9,0.000 5).But,the factors of gender,birth weight,congenital heartdisease,pollution status in living envi-ronment,animal contact history,feeding patterns,smoking during pregnancy,age when occured bronchioliyis,blood IgE and overweight had not correlated with asthma after bronchiolitis.Conclusions Severe bronchiolitis,parental asthma,eczema and recurrent LRTI under 1 year old correlate with development of asthma after bronchiolitis,however,falling ill in winter may be a protective factor in the progression of airway inflammation.

Objective To explore the factors affecting severity of infants with bronchiolitis in hospital.Methods Data were collected from hospitalized case of bronchiolitis including age,gender,birth weight,incidence season,overweight,severity of bronchiolitis,clinical manifestation,pathogen,total and specific immunoglobulin-E (IgE),X-ray appearance,family asthma history,eczema,feeding patterns,congenital heart disease,countryside dwelling and length of stay.All cases were divided according severity extent into 2 groups.Then one-factor analytical method was used between 2 groups,and risk factors for these outcomes were identified by Logistic regression analysis.Results 1.Nearly 56%(506 of 904) of children were considered as obesity.2.The positive rate of the virus infection identified from 904 infants with bronc-hiolitis was 78.3%.Of them,the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection accounted for 43.5%,cytomegalovirus (CMV) for 47.6%,coxsackie b virus (CBV) for 7.9%,Mycoplasma pneumonia (MP) for 1.8%,adenovirus (ADV) for 1.7% and epstein-barr virus (EBV) for 0.15%,respectively.3.There were notable differences between mild group and severe group in age,pathogen,birth weight,countryside dwel-ling,congenital heart disease and hospital day(?2=3.47,19.62,2.32,2.61,-4.71,69.23 P=0.001,0.006,0.02,0,0,0).There was a significant association between severe bronchiolitis and young age,low birth weight,congenital heart disease,countryside dwelling and hospital days (OR=0.840,0.542,15.412,5.305 and 1.173,respectively P=0.013 3,0.049 7,0.000 3,0,0.000 2).Conclusions 1.Obesity may have great risk for bronchiolitis.2.Except for RSV,CMV,CBV,ADV,MP and EBV all were pathogens associated with childhood bronc-hiolitis.3.The factors that contribute to increase risk of severe bronchiolitis are young age,low birth weight,congenital heart disease and countryside dwelling.And length of stay may estimate severity of infants with bronchiolitis in hospital.

[Objective]To analyze the clinical and biological characteristics of suspected malignant thyroid nodules associated with Hashimoto thyroiditis .To summarize different characteristics of benign and malignant nodules,diagnosis and treatment of suspected malignant nodules associated with Hashimoto's thy-roiditis. [Methods]Surgical y and pathological y confirmed, 58 cases of suspected malignant thyroid nodules associated with Hashimoto's thyroiditis were retro-spectively analyzed with clinical and pathological data. The differences of gender, age, number of nodules, calcification, and thyroid hormone and thyroid an-tibodies levels between malignant and benign nodules were compared from January 2009 to December 2011 .[Results] The average age of malignant thyroid nodules coexisting with HT group was significantly lower than that of benign nodules coexisting with HT group( P<0.05). The proportion of nodular calcifi-cation in malignant thyroid nodules coexisting with HT group was significantly higher than that in benign nodules coexisting with HT group( P<0.05). Pre-operative TSH and anti-TG levels in malignant thyroid nodules coexisting with HT group were significantly higher than that in benign nodules coexisting with HT group. Preoperative FT3, FT4, anti-TPO levels, sex ratio and number of lesions between the two groups were not statistical y significant. [Conclu-sions] The key point of preoperative diagnosis:patients of malignant thyroid nodules coexisting with HT are associated with youth, calcified nodules, elevated serum TSH and anti-TG levels.

Objective To explore time difference attack therapy in Acinetobacter bauamnnii infection. Methods 67 patients with Acinetobacter bauamnnii were divided into two groups. The experimental group were first given Fosfomycin 4 g 5% GS 100 ml iv girt to finish within 60 min and then given Cefperazone/Sulbactam 4 g 0.9% NS 250 ml iv gitt immediately bid. The control group were given: Ampicillin/Sulbactam 3 g 0.9% NS 250 ml iv gitt (tid) + Ciprofloxacin 0.2 g iv girt (bid). The treatment course all was 11 days. Results The overall effective rate of experimental group methods was superior to that of control group(X2 =9.56 ,P =0. 023). Conclusion The Fos-fomycin Cefperazone/Sulbactam time difference attack therapy for the treatment of Acinetobacter the bauamnnii in-fection is a new way.

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of DiversiLab system for genotyping of Acinetobacter baumannii.Methods Fifty-eight non-duplicated clinical Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from 15 cities in China in 2005 were typed by rep-PCR-based DiversiLab system.The results were compared with those of PFGE and multilocus sequence typing. Simpson's index of diversity was used to compare the discriminatory power among DiversiLab system, PFGE and MLST.Results Fifty-eight Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were differentiated into 5 clusters and 25 unique types by DiversiLab system. MLST identified 35 distinct sequence types, which fell into one clone complex of CC22 and 35 singletons, while PFGE resolved 5 pulsotypes and 34 unique types.Simpson's diversity indices for DiversiLab system, MLST and PFGE were O.876, O.944 and 0.961, respectively.Conclusions The discriminatory power of DiversiLab system is lower than that of PFGE and MLST.But as a simple, fast and reproducible typing method, it could be used as a first-line typing tool for the analysis of a large number of isolates.

Objective To explore quality of life and coping style of autistic children' s parents, and correlation between them. Methods 68 parents of children with autism and 64 healthy children' s parents were tested with comprehensive assessment questionnaire of the quality of life and coping style questionnaire. Data were analyzed by t -test and multivariate regression analysis. Results The scores of material life and mental health dimensions in study group(48.18 ± 12.80,60.63 ± 10.18 ) were lower than that in control group(52.71±9.84,65.79±8.64) and the difference was significant( t= -2.04, P＜0.05; t= -3.09, P＜0.01 ). The scores of "problem solving" coping style in study group were slower than in control group; the scores of fantasy and wincing coping style in study group were higher than that in control group. By multivariate regression analysis showed that the scores of "problem solving" coping style were positively correlated with total score of life quality,physical health,mental health and social function dimensions; the scores of "fantasy" coping style had negative correlation with the total score of life quality; the scores of "wincing" coping style had negative correlation with mental health dimension. Conclusion Parents of autistic children were more susceptible to problems of physical life and mental health. Compared to parents of normal children they are more in "fantasy and wineing style and less in" problem solving style to cope with stress, so it would affect the quality of life and mental health badly and need early intervention.

Objective To investigate the molecular epidemiology of carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii from Zhejiang Province using multilocus sequence typing.Methods Three hundred and two imipenem or meropenem resistant A.baumannii isolates were collected from eleven tertiary hospitals of eleven different regions of Zhejiang Province in 2009 and 2010.Multilocus sequence typing was used for molecular typing.eBURST was used to analyze the results of multilocus sequence typing.PCR was used to detect the OXA-type carbapenemase genes.Results Seventeen sequence types (STs) were identified from three hundred and two A.baumannii isolates.eBURST analysis revealed eleven STs belonged to clonal complex 92 (CC92) and corresponded to European clone Ⅱ lineage.CC92 was the predominant carbapenem resistant A.baumannii clone of Zhejiang Province,which accounted for 94.4％ (285/302) of all isolates and distributed in all 11 hospitals.blaOXA-23 gene was identified in 97.4％ (294/302) of all isolates.Conclusions Carbapenem resistant A.baumannii CC92 were clonal disseminated among multiple hospitals of Zhejiang Province.blaOXA-23 was the most popular carbapenemase gene in carbapenem resistant A.baumannii.(Chin J Lab Med,2013,36:303-307)

Objective To explore the effect of different indexes on evaluating insulin resistance in obese children. Methods Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed in obese children (n= 61) and age - matched normal volunteers( n= 23) Serum glucose and insulin levels were determined at 0,30,60,120,180 min after OGTT, insulin resistance was estimated by homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). Indexes such as the ratio of area under the curve of glucose(AUCG)/area under the curve of insulin(AUCI), the ratio of fasting blood sugar(FBG) and fasting blood insulin (FINS) were meanwhile calculated. Results The level of serum FINS was significantly higher in obese children(P
