OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens in urinary system infection.METHODS Collected from patients urine specimens of our hospital during Jan 2004 Dec 2008 were cultured,detected and studied drug resistance.RESULTS Among these pathogens,Escherichia coli rated the top one(44%),followed by coagulase negative Staphylococcus,fungi,Enterococcus,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Proteus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.The Enterobacteriaceae were sensitive to imipenem(100%) and the Enterococcues and Staphytlococcus were sensitive to vancomycin(100%).But they all showed higher drug resistance to other antibiotics.CONCLUSIONS E.coli from urinary tract infection is the most common pathogen.In the treatment of urinary tract infection the commonly used drugs such as gentamicin,ciprofloxacin,etc,have produced a higher resistance.Clinician should pay attention to the changes in their drug resistance and use correctly.

Objective To explore different approaches in administrating polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution in bowel preparation.Methods From January 2015 to June 2015, 218 patients eligible for this study were randomly divided into three groups (group A, 2 L PEG solutions 4 hours before colonoscopy; group B, 2 L PEG solutions 6 hours before colonoscopy; group C, 1 L PEG the night before and 1 L at least 4 hours before colonoscopy). The quality of bowel preparation was assessed on the basis of the Boston bowel preparation scale. A questionnaire was also completed to assess the subjective feelings of the preparation, including the overall satisfaction and discomfort with drug preparation, the feeling of abdominal distension, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, and the character of stool.Results In terms of intestinal cleanliness, statistical difference was shown between groups. Significant difference was found between group A and group C. However, the PDR between these three groups showed no statistical difference. No signiifcant difference was found between the three groups considering the overall satisfaction and subjective feelings of preparation.Conclusions Without affecting the subjective feelings of patients, splitting dose of PEG solution improve the quality of bowel preparation and is worthy to be recommended.

Objectives To study the current prevalence and recent epidemiological changes of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection among children and adults residing in regions with high ( Muping, Shandong) and low (Yanqing, Beijing) incidence of gastric cancer in China. Methods A total of 2065 asymptomatic children aged 8-15 years and adults aged 40-79 years in the above two regions were examined from May to July 2006. The data obtained in early 1990s in the same two areas and those of 11 656 patients undergoing endoscopy in our hospital in 1991 and 2006 were also collected and studied. Results The prevalence ofH. pylori infection in Muping was significantly higher than that in Yanqing among both children (37.69% vs25.58%, P<0.001) and adults (50.95% vs41.35%, P < 0. 01 ). From 1991 to 2006 H. pylori prevalence among children aged 8-10 years decreased in Muping (60. 00% vs 32. 07% , P < 0.001), but not in Yanqing (24.06% vs 19.10%, P > 0. 05 ) . A significant decrease in H. pylori prevalence among adults in both regions was observed when the results of 2006 were compared with the data obtained in 1990 in Muping (50.95% vs 73.78% , P < 0. 001 ) and in 1992 inYanqing (41.35% vs 55. 35% , P < 0. 01 ) . The detected rate of H. pylori infection in patients undergoing endoscopy in our hospital decreased from 51. 88% in 1991 to 33. 59% in 2006 (P <0. 001). Conclusions The prevalence of H. pylori infection is significantly higher in areas with a high incidence of gastric cancer in China as compared with that in areas with a low incidence of gastric cancer among both children and adults. H. pylori infection may be a risk factor in gastric carcinogenesis. In the past decade or more, H.pylori infection rates have decreased in Chinese population.

Objective To investigate the incidence of peptic ulcer (duodenal ulcer and gastric ulcer) and the development of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection in the population during 10 years after Hp eradication.Methods Subjects were chosen from general population and performed endoscopy.Among them,the individuals confirmed to be Hp positive were randomly divided into treatment group and placebo group.The patients in treatment group received OAC triple therapy (omeprazole 20 mg,clarithromycin 500 nag and amoxicillin 1000 re.g,twice daily) for one week.After that,both groups continuously followed up by endoscopy during at 1st,5th,8th and 10th year for incidence and relapse of peptic ulcer as well as status of Hp infection.The patients in treatment group were examined by 13C-UBT for Hp eradication one month after the completion of treatment.Results At the 1st year,the incidence of peptic ulcer between the treatment group and placebo group were 3.7% and 12.85% (P=0.0002),respectively.At the 5th year,they were 5.86% and 14.93% (P=0.0017),respectively.At the 8th year,they were 4.4% and 9.39% (P = 0.044),respectively.The incidence of peptic ulcer of the treatment group significantly decreased after the eradication therapy compared to the placebo group.After the eradication,at the 1st year,the recurrence rates were 3.70% and 38.1% between the treatment group and the placebo group (P=0.0027).At the 5th year,they were 14.81% and 42.86% (P=0.03).At 8th year,they were 14.81 and 47.62% (P=0.03),respectively.At the 10th year,they were 25.93% and 57.14% (P=0.028).Then the recurrence rates of the treatment group significantly decreased compared to the placebo group.During the 10-year follow up study,the rate of Hp reinfection after a successful eradication in the treatment group was high,and it was 46.4% at the 10th year.Conclusion Both the incidence and recurrence of peptic ulcer significantly decreased after Hp eradication.It is necessary of Hp eradication in patients with peptic ulcer.Hp reinfection after a successful eradication is more frequent.
