ObjectiveTo determine the pathogens and drug resistance in patients with bacterial diarrhea in Lishui City of Zhejiang Province from 2015 to 2019, and provide scientific evidence for prevention and treatment of bacterial diarrhea. MethodFecal specimens were collected from patients with diarrhea in the People’s Hospital of Lishui City from 2015 to 2019. Bacteria were identified by time-of-flight mass spectrometer and serum agglutination reaction. Drug sensitivity in the suspected bacteria was identified by VITEK 2 Compact system. ResultsA total of 2 937 fecal samples were tested from 2015 to 2019, of which 191 were positive for bacteria. The prevalence was 6.65% in male and 6.32% in female. It was highest in the age group 21‒30 years old, followed by the group 51‒60 years old. Summer was the season with the highest prevalence of bacteria. Furthermore,the bacterial species included salmonella (3.98%), Vibrio parahaemolyticus (1.43%), aeromonas (0.48%), shigella (0.37%) and other bacteria (3.66%). Salmonella had high resistance to cefuroxime and amikacin. Vibrio parahaemolyticus and shigella had high resistance to ampicillin. Aeromonas had high resistance to ampicillin and ampicillin/sulbactam. ConclusionPrevalence of bacteria differs by gender, age and seasons in patients with bacterial diarrhea in Lishui from 2015 to 2019. Salmonella is the principal pathogen in bacterial diarrhea.

AIMTo investigate the role and mechanism of mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) in myocardial hypoxia/reoxygenation injury.
METHODSIsolated rat hearts were perfused with Langendorff apparatus. The hypoxia/reoxygenation injury was achieved by ligation of left anterior coronary artery for 30 min followed by release of ligation for 120 min. The left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), the maximum rise/fall rate of left ventricular pressure (+/- dP/dt(max)), and the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) were recorded. Activities of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in coronary effluent and reactive oxygen species (ROS) of myocardial mitochondria were spectrophotometrically assayed. Infarct size was determined by TTC staining method.
RESULTSCompared with the hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) group, ruthenium red (RR, 5 micromol/L), given at the on set of reoxygenation, significantly improved the contractile function of left ventricle, decreased the myocardial infarct size, alleviated the production of ROS in myocardial mitochondria and LDH release in coronary effluent. Spermine (20 micromol/L), given at the onset of reoxygenation, enhanced the production of ROS in the mitochondria and LDH release in coronary effluent at 5, 20 and 30 min of reoxygenation, however, there were no significant differences of ventricular contractile parameters and infarct size between groups subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation with or without spermine treatment. Co-treatment of ROS scavenger N-2-mercaptopropionyl glycine (1 mmol/L) with spermine abolished the effect of spermine.
CONCLUSIONInhibition of mitochondrial calcium uniporter may refrain heart from hypoxia/reoxygenation injury via decreasing the production of ROS in heart mitochondria.

Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 2016;47(14):2482-2487
Objective: To investigate the effects of Shenmai Injection (SMI) on activities of six isoforms of cytochrome P450 (CYP450) by Cocktail probe drugs in rats. Methods: SD rats were randomly divided into SM group and blank control group, which were given SMI (10 mL/kg) or normal saline for 7 d. Phenacetin, bupropion, tolbutamide, omeprazole, metoprolol, and midazolam were used as probe drugs for CYP1A2, CYP2B1, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4. The UPLC-MS/MS method was used to determine the concentration of probe drugs in rat plasma, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated by DAS3.0. Results: Compared with the blank control group, AUC0~∞, CL, and Cmax of phenacetin, bupropion, and omeprazole were significantly decreased (P < 0.05). However, no significant difference of plasma concentration and pharmacokinetics for tolbutamide, metoprolol, and midazolam was shown between SMI group and the blank control group. Conclusion: SMI can inhibit CYPlA2, CYP2B1, and CYP2C19 activities significantly, but has no effect on the activities of CYP2C9, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4.
