Diabetic nephropathy is a complication of diabete and its incidence is increasing obviously these years. The pathogenic mechanisms of DN are complex, with multiple factors involved such as the glycometabolism disorders , hemodynamic changes, aldose reductase pathway activation, alterations in cytokines, oxidative stress, protein kinase C activation, lipid metabolism disorders and genetic susceptibility etc, which are not completely clear yet. Thus, the research progress of DN pathogenesis is to be reviewed.

Objective To analyze the distribution and drug resistance rate of methicillin-resisitant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) and methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus(MSSA) isolated from different departments in a certain primary hospital during 2009 to 2012,and to provide scientific evidences for clinical application of antibiotics.Methods Pathogens and bacterial resistance to antibiotics were identified using the VITEK 2 compact equipment.The data were got from WHONTES.5 and analyzed by SPSS 13.0.Results There were 517 Staphylococcus aureus strains were detected(MRSA 135 strains,MSSA 382 strains).The rate of MRSA was 24.5%,27.7%,24.8%,27.0% during the four years.MRSA was mainly found in the department of oncology,orthopaedicsand ICU.MRSA was mainly isolated from pus,secretion,sputum and blood.The 517 Staphylococcus aureus strains showed high sensitive to vancomycin,linezolid and teicoplanin,the sensitive rate was 100%.Conclusion Establishing a more comprehensive MDRO monitoring and hospital infection control system in the primary hospital,and rational using antibacterial drugs at the based of the antibiotics susceptibility test in the treatment can be effective in preventing MRSA resistance rates increasing and hospital-borne.

Aim To investigate the effect of resveratrol on astrocyte activation after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats.Methods 45 male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham,control and resveratrol groups, 15 rats in each group.Resveratrol or solvent was intra-peritoneally perfused into the rats for 7 consecutive days after 3h for MCA I /R.Cerebral infarction volume with TTC,neurological function score with Longa score, and pathological change with HE staining,the protein expressions of Caspase-3 with immunohistochemistry at 24h after MCA I /R were examined.The protein ex-pressions of GFAP and NeuN in penumbra were detec-ted with immunohistochemistry and immunofluores-cence at 14d after MCA I /R.Results Resveratrol treatment significantly improved the neurological func-tion score,decreased the infarct volume,reduced neu-ron loss,and inhibited the activation and proliferation of astrocytes,compared with the control group.Con-clusion Resveratrol can inhibit the excessive activa-tion of astrocytes,protect neurons in penumbra and im-prove neurological function.
