Objective To identify the risk factors of Burkholderia cenocepacia associated nosocomial lower respiratory tract infections (NLRTIs),and to investigate the drug resistance of Burkholderia cenocepacia strains.Methods A total of 138 patients with Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs and 40 patients with non-Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs were enrolled in the study.All patients were collected from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University during January 2009 and December 2012.Clinical data and results of drug sensitivity tests were retrospectively reviewed.Chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the risk factors of Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs.Results Logistic regression analvsis showed that combination use of 2 or more antimicrobial agents,mechanical ventilation,stay in intensive care unit (ICU) for more than two weeks,use of antacid H2 antagonist and deep venous puncture were the independent risk factors of Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs (OR =6.315,5.957,5.254,4.585 and 2.017,P ＜0.05).Burkholderia cenocepacia strains were sensitive to levofloxacin,ceftazidime and sulfamethoxazole; More than 40％ strains were resistant to cefotaxime,ceftriaxone,cefepime,aztreonam and tetracycline; And nearly 100％ strains were resistant to gentamicin,amikacin and tobramycin.Conclusion Burkholderia cenocepacia associated NLRTIs are more likely to occur in patients with combination use of 2 or more antimicrobial agents,mechanical ventilation,and those who stay in ICU for more than two weeks,or received antacid and deep venous punctures,and most Burkholderia cenocepacia strains are multiple drug resistant.

[Objective] To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Buxin Huoluo Capsule (BHC) for coronary heart disease (CHD) and to explore its anti-lipid-peroxidation mechanism. [Methods] One hundred and seventy-five cases of CHD were treated with BHC and 121 cases with isosorbide dinitrate (ID) . Effects of BHC on angina pectoris, electrocardiograph, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and lipid peroxides (LPO) level were observed. [Results] In BHC group, the total effective rate in relieving angina pectoris was 88.0 % and that in improving electrocardiogram was 80.0 % , the difference being not significant as compared with ID group. As for the reduction of frequency of angina pectoris and the decrease of dosage of nitroglycerin, BHC were superior to ID. Furthermore, BHC decreased LPO level and increased SOD activity, the difference being significant (P

OBJECTIVETo assess the associations of death receptor DR4 and DR5 gene polymorphisms with Crohn's disease (CD).

METHODSA total of 295 CD patients and 490 healthy controls were recruited. Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the DR4 (rs13278062, rs20575) and DR5 (rs1047266) genes were determined with a SNaPshot method. Unconditional logistic regression analysis was carried out for determining the allelic and genotypic differences of the three SNPs between CD patients and the controls, as well as the influence of the DR4 and DR5 gene polymorphisms on the clinical features of CD patients. Linkage disequilibrium and haplotype analysis were calculated by haplotype 4.2 and R language software. A gene-gene interaction model was established to analyze whether the three SNPs can exert a synergistic effect on the susceptibility to CD.

RESULTSThe mutant allele (T) and genotype (GT+TT) of DR4 (rs13278062) were increased among CD patients compared to the controls (37.12% vs. 32.04%, P = 0.040, 95%CI: 1.010-1.550; 62.71% vs. 54.90%, P = 0.032, 95%CI: 1.028-1.855, respectively). However, the allelic and genotypic frequencies of DR4 (rs20575) and DR5 (rs1047266) did not differ between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Based on the Montreal Classification Standards, the CD patients were stratified by locations and behaviors of the disease. After multiple comparison correction (P < 0.0125), compared to ileocolonic CD patients respectively, the mutant allele (T) and genotype (GT+TT) of the rs13278062 polymorphism were significantly increased in colonic CD patients (41.04% vs. 25.64%, P = 0.002, 95%CI: 0.315-0.778; 66.04% vs. 41.03%, P = 0.001, 95%CI: 0.196-0.655, respectively) and terminal ileum CD patients (41.44% vs. 25.64%, P = 0.002, 95%CI: 0.311-0.762; 74.77% vs. 41.03%, P < 0.001, 95%CI: 0.126-0.437, respectively). In comparison to penetrating CD patients, the mutant allele (T) and genotype (GT+TT) of DR4 (rs13278062) were significantly decreased in stricturing CD patients (32.29% vs. 48.91%, P = 0.007, 95%CI: 0.300-0.828; 57.29% vs. 86.96%, P = 0.001, 95%CI: 0.078-0.520, respectively). A similar conclusion was drawn for the mutant genotype (GT+TT) of DR4 (rs13278062) in non-stricturing, non-penetrating CD patients (58.82% vs. 86.96%, P = 0.001, 95%CI: 0.086-0.536). Haplotype analysis indicated that the CT haplotype formed by rs20575 and rs13278062 was increased in CD patients compared to the controls (37.1% vs. 31.8%, P = 0.029, OR=1.279, 95%CI: 1.022-1.600). The outcome of a gene-gene interaction model indicated that the mutant genotype (GT+TT) of DR4 (rs13278062) and mutant genotype (CT+TT) of DR5 (rs1047266) may play a negatively synergistic role in CD patients (B = - 0.483, OR = 0.617, P = 0.030).

CONCLUSIONThe rs13278062 polymorphism of the DR4 gene not only can confer an increased risk for CD, but may also influence the location of the lesions and the disease behaviors. The CT haplotype formed by rs20575 and rs13278062 may be an independent risk factor for CD. Furthermore, the mutant genotype (GT+TT) of DR4 (rs13278062) and mutant genotype (CT+TT) of DR5 (rs1047266) may exert a negative synergistic effect on CD.
