Objective To analyze the pathogen distribution and drug resistance in the patients with urinary system infection in our hospital so as to provide the basis for prevention and treatment of urinary system infection .Methods 259 strains of pathogenic bacteria cultured and isolated from the midstream urine were performed the bacteriologic identification and the drug susceptibility testing ,Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were performed the extend‐spectrum β‐lactamase (ESBLs) producing testing . Results Among 259 strains of bacteria ,187 strains 72 .2% (187/259) were Gram negative stains ,43 strains 16 .6% (43/259) were Gram positive stains and 29 strains 11 .20% (29/259) were fungi .Gram negative stains were dominated by Escherichia coli (139 strains) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (22 strains) .The detection rates of ESBLs‐producing Escherichia Coli and Klebsiella pneumoni‐ae were 55 .4% (77/139) and 45 .4% (10/22) .The drug susceptibility testing results showed that Gram negative stains were sus‐ceptible to both imipenem and meropenem (100% ) and Gram positive stains were susceptible to vancomycin ,teicoplanin and linezol‐id (100% ) .Conclusion Gram negative bacilli are the main infectious pathogens in urinary tract infection and Escherichia coli is the most common pathogen .No vancomycin‐resistant Gram positive cocci is found .Rationally selecting antibacterial drugs according to the drug susceptibility testing results has great significance in the therapy of urinary tract infection and the control of drug‐resistant bacterial strains .

Objective To explore the clinical value of procalcitonin (PCT ) and blood culture in the united diagnosis of early blood stream infection .Methods The blood specimens of 625 patients were collected ,the serum level of PCT was detected by EL‐FA ,and the blood culture was accessed at the same time .23 cases of blood culture positive samples were received continuous detec‐tion of PCT ,and the results were analyzed .Results Positive rate of PCT was 41 .01% (0 .05 -2 .58 μg/L)in patients with blood culture negative results (negative group) ,and that in patients with blood culture positive results (positive group) was 80 .77%(0 .05-200 .00 μg/L) .The positive rate of PCT in positive group was significantly higher than negative group (χ2 =65 .12 ,P<0 .01) .Positive rates of PCT in patients with infection of Candida tropicalis ,kinds of bacteria ,Gram‐negative bacilli and Gram‐posi‐tive cocci were 100 .00% ,100 .00% ,92 .11% and 56 .81% ,respectively .Continuous detection of PCT in 23 patients with blood cul‐ture positive results showed that patients with gradually decreased PCT level suggested a good prognosis ,and patients whose PCT levels were higher than 10 μg/L and were maintained at high levels had poor prognosis .Conclusion Simultaneously blood culture and PCT detection was important to the early diagnosis and treatment of blood stream infection .

Objective To establish an assay for the detection of Streptococcus pneumoniae by real-time fluorescence quantititive polymerase chain reaction (PCR).Methods Special primers and probe for the autolysin A (lytA)gene were designed.The sensitivity and specificity of primers and probe were studied,and cut-off of cycle threshold was assayed.158 clinical specimens were confirmed by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and bacterial culture method.Results Primer and probe design for LytA gene could sensitively detect serotype Streptococcus pneumoniae strains of common pathogenic,and the sensitivity was 100 copies.Among 35 strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae,34 cases were detected to be positive for Streptococcus pneumoniae by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR,while 1 case was detected to be negative;among 15 strains of non-Streptococcus pneumoniae, all were detected to be negative.Among the 158 clinical sputum specimens,34 cases with Streptococcus pneumoniae were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR,while only 10 cases with Streptococcus pneumoniae were detected by the culture method.White blood cells count and time in hospital of cases with Streptococcus pneumoniae were higher than those of cases without Streptococcus pneumoniae (P <0.05 ). Conclusion Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR is a sensitive and specific assay for the detection of Streptococcus pneumoniae.It can be used for the diagnosis of Streptococcus pneumoniae.
