Objective To explore the risk factors and control strategies of nosocomial infection in intensive care patients in the neurological department of internal medicine.Methods 422 intensive care patients in the neuro-logical department of internal medicine were retrospectively analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neurology ICU infection was 24.41%,which was significantly higher than 4.54%of the same period of nosocomial infection rate,the difference was statistically significant(χ2 =10.36,P<0.05).In the intensive care unit of the nervous system,the respiratory infection was mainly caused by respiratory infection,the incidence rate was 57.28%,urinary system was 25.24%,and digestive system was 9.71%.Neural medical intensive care unit patients aged 60 years old,time was more than or equal to 14 days in hospital,impaired consciousness,invasive procedures,use of antibiotics and a history of diabetes mellitus in hospital infection incidence increased significantly,and the differences were statistically signifi-cant(χ2 =7.65,10.76,16.87,9.43,9.25,9.87,all P<0.05).Conclusion Older patients,hospitalized time lon-ger,impaired consciousness,invasive procedures,antibiotic treatment and a history of diabetes mellitus were neural medical intensive care unit patients occurred nosocomial infection risk factors,clinical should strengthen nursing,to improve the work of prevention and monitoring to minimize nosocomial infection.

ObjectiveTo evaluate morphometric changes of brain in patients with alcohol addiction by voxel-based morphometry. MethodsFifteen patients with alcohol addiction and 15 health controls were recruited and underwent fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) and 3D fast spoiled gradient echo (FSPGR) T1 -weighted sequences on a 3.0 T MRI system. 3D FSPGR T1 structure images were normalized,segmented and smoothed, and then underwent voxel-based morphometry. An ANCOVA was applied with age,body mass index ( BMI ), and education years as covariates because of exact sex match.A statistical threshold of P ＜ 0. 01 (uncorrected) and more than continuous 50 voxels were determined as significant.ResultsRegional results showed there was a significant reduction of gray matter volume in left middle frontal gyrus, superior frontal gyrus, precuneus, gyrus rectus, right medial superior frontal gyrus and orbital gyrus in patients with alcohol addiction compared with health controls, and the regional reduction of white matter volume in patients with alcohol addiction mainly located in the white matter of bilateral superior frontal gyrus. Global brain volume analysis showed there was a significant smaller volume in white matter [ (675. 14 ± 70. 62) ml]and brain parenchyma [ ( 1578. 81 ± 199. 05 ) ml]for patient group than that in white matter [ ( 841.33 :± 177. 35 ) ml]and brain parenchyma [ ( 1722. 13 ± 117.62) ml]for control group (t ＝ 11.37,5. 764, respectively, P ＜0. 05 ), but there was no difference in the gray matter volume between patient group [(903.67 ±1±9.87) ml]and control group [(880.79 ±1±7.10) ml](t ＝0.177, P＞0. 05 ). ConclusionsRegional gray and white matter atrophy can be the initial changes in patients with alcohol addiction and the frontal region is a relative specific damaged brain region.VBM has a potential value for the detection of subtle brain atrophy in patients with alcohol addiction.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of 10 kinds of nephrotoxic TCM on three main subtypes(Oat1,Oat2 and Oat3) of kidney organic anion transporter(Oats)in mice. METHODS:A total of 1 840 SPF NIH mice were randomly divided into nor-mal control group(isovolumic pure water),probenecid group(30 kg/mg),sodium carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC)group,Pulsa-tillae radix,Corydalis rhizoma,Aconiti kusnezoffii radix,Aconiti radix,Angelicae pubescentis radix,Gleditsiae spina,Polygo-num cuspidatum,Kansui radix,Platycladi cacumen,Aucklandiae radix high and low dose groups. Mice were treated twice a day for 5 d,ig. After 1 h of the last dosing,they were iv given PAH in tail(30 mg/kg). The PAH pharmacokinetic parameters of the kidney homogenate were determined and the PAH intake in kidney tissue at the time point of 1,5,10,15 and 20 min was detect-ed. The PAH in blood was analyzed by DAS 2.0 software. The grouping and dosing were the same as before,after 1 h of the last dosing,kidney slices were made and put into PAH-buffer. The PAH intake of kidney slices was determined. RESULTS:Compared with normal control group,the t1/2β in C. rhizoma high dose group,A. kusnezoffii high and low dose groups,A. pubescentis high dose group,P. cuspidatum high and low dose groups and P. cacumen group were increased;Vd were all decreased in 10 kinds of TCM high and low dose groups;except for A. pubescentis low dose group,G. spian low dose group and K. radix low dose group, the CL was decreased and AUC0-20 min was increased in all other groups,with significant difference (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Com-pared with normal control group,the content of PAH in kidney tissue in P. radix high dose group,C. rhizoma high dose group,A. kusnezoffii high dose group,A. radix high and low dose groups,A. pubescentis high and low dose groups,G. spina high and low dose groups,P. cuspidatum high and low dose groups,K. radix high and low dose groups,P. cacumen high and low dose groups and A. radix high and low dose groups were increased,with significant difference (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Compared with normal control group,the intake of PAH in kidney slices in C. rhizoma high dose group,A. kusnezoffii high and low dose groups,G. spi-na high and low dose groups,K. radix high dose group,P. ca-cumen high and low dose groups and A. radix high dose group were decreased,with significant difference (P<0.01 or P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The 10 kinds of nephrotoxic TCM probably induced kidney injury through inhibiting the Oat1,Oat2 and Oat3 of Oats.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of prenatal ultrasonography in diagnosis of retroaortic left innominate vein ( LINV ) . Methods Thirty fetus with retroaortic LINV were involved , including 17 cases of isolated retroaortic LINV and 13 cases of complicated retroaortic LINV . Three-vessel and trachea ( 3VT ) view was focused in the routine second trimester ultrasound screening to observe whether LINV existing or not . And then the transducer was rotated to the fetal sagittal view to assess the relationship between LINV and aortic arch and the convergence of left subclavian vein and left internal jugular vein into the LINV . Results The characteristic feature of retroaortic LINV was the LINV converge into right superior vena cava ( SVC) under the aortic arch ,not above the aortic arch . The most important plane to detect the retroaortic LINV was the 3VT view ,which revealed the abnormal vein lying to the left of pulmonary artery . The abnormal vein then could be traced and revealed its connection with the right SVC beneath the aortic arch on the transverse plane inferior to the 3VT view and on the fetal sagittal plane . Conclusions The whole course of retroaortic LINV can be revealed by ultrasound prenatally ,which can not only account for the abnormal vein to the left of pulmonary artery on 3VT view ,but also play an important role in surgery decision and future cardiac intervention treatment .

Objective To discuss the worthiness of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography in researching normal fetal heart ventricle growth and systolic function. Methods End-systolic volume(EDV),end-diastolic volume(ESV), struggle volume(SV) and ejection fraction(EF) of 54 normal fetal were acquired from 3-D data by Qlab software. The relation between ventricular growth with pregnant week was analysed and the difference of the volume and systolic function between left ventricle with right ventricle were compared. Results Ventricular volume of normal fetal heart (EDV,ESV,SV) were all increased with the gestational ages,there was linear relativity between them,while EF was not increased with pregnant weeks,there was no linear relativity between them. There was no statistics difference on EDV and ESV between left ventricle and right ventricle, while there was statistics difference on SV, EF between them. Conclusions The image of fetal endocarium could be derived clearly by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography, which help to get fetal heart ventricular volume and to study fetal heart growth and function.
