OBJECTIVE To discuss the distribution of pathogens isolated from the hospitalized patients of lower respiratory infection in the department of respiratory medicine and their drug resistance to help reasonably utilize the antibiotics.METHODS By the retrospective methods,we analyzed the pathogens isolated from the sputa of the hospitalized patients with lower respiratory tract infection in the department of respiratory medicine from 2002 to 2006 and their drug resistance.RESULTS Gram-negative bacteria were 46.5-56%,Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli were 15.0% and 8.9%,respectively,the drug resistance ratio to imipenem,piperacillin/tazobactam and amikacin was 2.0-35.6%;Gram-positive bacteria were 23.1-36.3%,Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase negative Staphylococcus were 17.3% and 7.5%,respectively,only to vancomycin were without resistance.Fungi were 15.3-24.7%.CONCLUSIONS Gram-negative bacteria are the main ones in lower respiratory tract infection,Gram-positive bacteria have a rising tendency and fungi occupy a fixed ratio.The drug resistance increases constantly.So it is very important to utilize antibiotics reasonably and pay attention to supervising drug resistance.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the disinfecting effect of electrolyzed-oxiding water(EOW) on dental(instruments) contaminated after clinical operation.METHODS Use K-reamer and high-speed handpiece as objects of test.(K-reamers) were disinfected by EOW and 2% glutaraldehyde for 5min and 10min,respectively.And(handpieces) were disinfected by EOW and autoclave sterilization,respectively.The samples were collected from each(K-reamer) and each handpiece′surface and its water-canal before and after disinfection.The samples were done germiculture.RESULTS Disinfecting K-reamer for 10min,the disinfection rate of two disinfectants(EOW and 2%(glutaraldehyde)) were both 100%.Disinfecting handpiece with EOW(by surface-wiping,immersing and rinsing the water-canal)or autoclaving sterilization,the disinfection rate of EOW and 2%glutaraldehyde were both 100%.(Disinfecting) handpiece with EOW(by surface-wiping,immersing and rinsing the water-canal) or autoclaving(sterilizaion),the bacteria contaminated on handpiece′s surface and in the water-canal could all be killed,while(disinfecting) handpieces with EOW only by surface-wiping,and immersing,in the water-canal there were still a lot of bacteria.CONCLUSIONS The disinfecting effect of EOW is reliable and safe compared with 2%(glutaraldehyde) and autoclave sterilization.

OBJECTIVE To analyze distribution and resistance of bacteria from lower respiratory tract infection in elderly patients,and provide reference for rationl use of agents in clinics.METHODS To collect phlegm specimens from lower respiratory tract infection in elderly patients from Jan 2003 to Jun 2005 in our hospital,to identify pathogens and drug sensitivity test,the results of examination were judged according to NCCLS standard.RESULTS Among 752 pathogens strains,Gram-negative bacteria and Gram-positive cocci were 70.9% and 17.6%,respectively;the most common pathogens of them were Klebsiella pneumoniae(ESBLs 27.7%)14.89%,Pseudomonas aeruginosa 14.36%,Escherichia coli(ESBLs 35.4%)12.77%,Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA 59.0%)11.70%,and fungi 11.57%.CONCLUSIONS The bacteria from lower respiratory tract infection in elderly patients are distributed extensively.In Gram-positive cocci,resistance to vancomycin is not found elsely.Gram-negative bacteria are especially sensitive to imipenem,but with some resistant strains.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the status of hospital infection of elderly in internal medicine,in order to prevent and control hospital infection of them.METHODS A restrospective survey on 157 cases of hospital(infection) of elderly from Aug 2003 to Apr 2005 was conducted in internal medicine.(RESULTS)The results showed that the high risk wards were in geriatrics,neurology,endocrinology and(cardiovascular) departments.The high risk season was in winter.Respiratory tract was the most common(infective) site.Fungi were the main pathogens.CONCLUSIONS The hospital infection of elderly should be(controlled) better,geriatrics department is the key(control) unit.Winter is the key control season.The diagnostic level of clinician about the hospital(infection) of(edlerly) should be enhanced and the antibiotic must be used reasonably.

OBJECTIVE To know the bacterial distribution in the blood of septicemia patients and the characteristics of drug resistance.METHODS To train the blood in BD BACTEC 9050 full-automatic blood training system and to analyze it in the FOUTUNE IMS bacterial identification and hypersusceptibility analysis system of Fuxing Company.RESULTS The Gram-negative bacilli were in superiority with 64.9% of the total isolated bacteria.Then were the Gram-positive cocci,and Staphylococcus were the main.The Enterococcus and fungi were with a certain proportion.The drugs to which had relatively low resistance for the Gram-positive bacilli and the Gram-positive cocci were the carbapenems,the enzyme inhibitors and vancomycin.CONCLUSIONS The Gram-negative bacilli get priority in the blood bacteria in patients with septicemia during the last two years,the enterococci and fungi have a certain proportion.And the pathogenic bacteria have higher resistance clinically to antibacterial drugs.

DNA damage response (DDR) is essential for maintaining genome stability and protecting cells from tumorigenesis. Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like modifications play an important role in DDR, from signaling DNA damage to mediating DNA repair. In this report, we found that the E3 ligase ring finger protein 126 (RNF126) was recruited to UV laser micro-irradiation-induced stripes in a RNF8-dependent manner. RNF126 directly interacted with and ubiquitinated another E3 ligase, RNF168. Overexpression of wild type RNF126, but not catalytically-inactive mutant RNF126 (CC229/232AA), diminished ubiquitination of H2A histone family member X (H2AX), and subsequent bleomycin-induced focus formation of total ubiquitin FK2, TP53-binding protein 1 (53BP1), and receptor-associated protein 80 (RAP80). Interestingly, both RNF126 overexpression and RNF126 downregulation compromised homologous recombination (HR)-mediated repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Taken together, our findings demonstrate that RNF126 negatively regulates RNF168 function in DDR and its appropriate cellular expression levels are essential for HR-mediated DSB repair.
