Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical isolates in Fuzhou First People's Hospital during 2015. Methods? The?bacterial?isolates?were?identified?using?ATB?Reader?semi-automatic?equipment?via?colorimetric?method.?The antimicrobial susceptibility was tested by disk diffusion method. The results were interpreted according to the CLSI breakpoints issued in 2015. All data were analyzed by WHONET 5.5 software. Results A total of 1215 non-duplicate clinical isolates were collected during 2015, including gram negative bacteria (70.6%) and gram positive bacteria (29.4%). The prevalence of MRSA was 50.0 % in S. aureus and the prevalence of MRCNS was 84.1 % in coagulase-negative Staphylococcus. Most MRSA strains (80.3?%)?were?resistant?to?erythromycin,?tetracycline?and?norfloxacin.?No?staphylococcal?isolate?was?found?resistant?to?vancomycin?or teicoplanin. The prevalence of ESBLs was 52.5% in E. coli and 34.7% in K. pneumoniae. Ten strains of Enterobacteriaceae were resistant to carbapenems. Less than10% of the P. aeruginosa isolates were resistant to amikacin, cefoperazone-sulbactam, meropenem and tobramycin. About 2.4% and 51.8% of the Acinetobacter isolates were resistant to polymyxin E and cefoperazone-sulbactam, respectively, while more than 75% of these strains were resistant to other commonly used antimicrobial agents. Conclusions Most of the clinical isolates are gram-negative bacilli in our hospital during 2015. Antimicrobial resistance remains an important clinical concern, which should be addressed seriously.

Objective:To analyze the differentally expressed long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) among mice of different ages and explore the mechanism of kidney aging.Methods:Male C57BL/6 mice aged 3-month-old ( n=5), 12-month-old ( n=5) and 24-month-old ( n=5) (each weighting about 25 g) were randomly selected. PAS staining, Masson staining and senescence associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) staining were used to detect the pathology and cell senescence of mice kidney. High throughput sequencing was performed to detect the differentially expressed lncRNA and their fragments per kilobase million. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to verify the differentially expressed lncRNA. Competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network, which consisted of lncRNA, miRNA and mRNA was built. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis method were used to predict the biological function of differentially expressed lncRNA. Results:PAS staining and Masson staining showed the development of kidney fibrosis, and SA-β-gal staining positive region was increased significantly as age increased. There were 938 known lncRNA and 542 novel lncRNA differentially expressed among different ages' mouse kidney. Compared with 3-month-old mice, 33 lncRNA were up-regulated and 43 lncRNA were down-regulated in 12-month-old mice. Compared with 3-month-old mice, 130 lncRNA were up-regulated and 91 lncRNA were down-regulated in 24-month-old mice. Compared with 12-month-old mice, 36 lncRNA were up-regulated and 22 lncRNA were down-regulated in 24-month-old mice. The results of qRT-PCR about verified 10 lncRNAs with larger differential expression multiples and higer expression levels were consistent with the sequencing data. GO enrichment analysis showed that the target genes of lncRNA differentially expressed in the three groups were mostly located in the nucleus and cytoplasm, and might play a role by binding to proteins or participate in various protein phosphorylation, cell cycle, transcription, transcription regulation and other processes. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the target genes of lncRNA differentially expressed in the three group were significantly enriched in Rap1 signaling pathway, FOXO signaling pathway and MAPK signaling pathway, which were closely related to kidney aging.Conclusion:There are significant differences in expression of lncRNA among the kidney of different ages mice, which are involved in the occurrence of renal senescence.

The acute therapeutic effect of enalapril,an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI),in reducing blood pressure and urinary albumin excretion rate(UAER) were assessed in 32 NID- DM and 13 essential hypertensive patients.After treatment for three days,24-h blood pressure and UAER in NIDDM patients were reduced significantly.UAER of essential hypertensive patients were reduced while in hypertensive patients UAER were reduced,but blood pressure except night SBP remained unchanged. This study suggests enalapril may have a specific protect effect on kidney which is independent of the de- crease in systemic blood pressure.

Objective To investigate the ultrasound characteristics of congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM). Methods The ultrasonographic features of 21 cases of fetal CCAM confirmed by prenatal ultrasound were analyzed. And ultrasound ifndings were compared with the postnatal thoracic computed tomography (CT), surgical result and follow-up data. Results (1) Prenatal ultrasonographic ifndings:2 cases of CCAM typeⅠ(10%, 2/21), 13 cases of typeⅡ(62%, 13/21), and 6 cases of typeⅢ(28%, 6/21). Of them, 95%(20/21) lesions were located in unilateral thorax, while 5%(1/21) in bilateral thorax. CCAM was ifrst detected at 18th-25th gestational week with a median of 22nd week. The CVR was<1.6 and>1.6 in 16 (76%, 16/21) and 5 (24%, 5/21) cases respectively. After reaching the maximum volume, the size of mass remained stable in 8 cases and regressed in 13 cases with even complete remission in 5 cases. There were mediastinal shift in 19 fetuses (90%, 19/21), polyhydramnios in 6, and concomitant structural abnormalities in 3 cases such as pulmonary sequestration, diaphragmatic hernia and fetal hydrops. (2) Clinical outcomes:15 newborns were conifrmed as CCAM by CT, in which 9 cases underwent surgical resection. One case was conifrmed by autopsy. Nineteen cases showed good prognosis. Whereas 1 pregnancy with fetal hydrops was terminated, and 1 fetus with diaphragmatic hernia died after birth. Conclusions Dynamic prenatal ultrasound assessment is the key factor in prognosis prediction of fetal CCAM. CCAM without other structural abnormalities has a good outcome.

Objective To research the incidence and etiological factors of intraocular pressure(IOP)elevation in patients in early and late postop?erative stages after vitrectomy. Methods The clinical data of 235 cases(306 eyes)who underwent vitrectomy in our hospital were respectively ana?lyzed. IOP was measured before operation,in the early postoperative stage(within 2 weeks)and in the late postoperative stage(6 months after opera?tion or longer)by non?contact tonometer. Risk factors related with ocular hypertension happened in the early and late postoperative stages were statis?tically analyzed. Results The mean average IOP before operation was 15.3 ± 4.1 mmHg for the 306 eyes. Within the follow?up period of 6?20 months(mean,14.3 months),ocular hypertension occurred in 42 eyes[incidence,13.7%;mean,31.9 ± 6.0 mmHg]in the early postoperative stage and in 12 eyes[incidence,3.9%;mean,32.1 ± 5.7 mmHg]in the late postoperative stage. Logistic regression analysis revealed that lensecto?my,scleral buckling,cyclophotocoagulation,inert gas filling,silicone oil tamponade and diabetic retinopathy were the independent risk factors of oc?ular hypertension in early postoperative stage after vitrectomy,while lensectomy,scleral buckling,pan retinal photocoagulation,silicone oil tampon?ade,diabetic retinopathy and carotid artery stenosis were the independent risk factors of ocular hypertension in late postoperative stage after vitrecto?my. In addition,cyclophotocoagulation was a protective factor of IOP in the late postoperative stage. Conclusion The risk factors of ocular hyperten?sion after vitrectomy include the intraocular gapfiller,the mode of combined operation,disease type and carotid artery stenosis. IOP elevation that happens in the late postoperative stage is more harmful. Ocular hypertension in the late postoperative stage is not associated with that in the early stage.
