Objective To study the induction and detection methods of Staphylococcus aureus viable but non-culturable state (VBNC).Methods Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC13565) of 107 cfu/ml was induced by low temperature at 4 ℃,freezing at-20 ℃ and adding copper ions from 0.01 mmol/L to 0.05 mmol/L,Staphylococcus aureus was tested,and explored the resuscitation conditions by stepwise heating-heating and chemokinesis.Results Frozen 72 h at the temperature of-20 ℃ or added 0.015 mmol/L Cu2+ for 4 days of culture could induce staphylococcus aureus into the state of VBNC.Adding 0.5% tween-20 or 1% catalase for 24 h of culture could make the strain in VBNC achieve recovery.Conclusion Staphylococcus aureus can be induced into the VBNC and the recovered Staphylococcus aureus is the same as the normal bacteria in colony morphology and physiological and biochemical response in the common test medium.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of intermittent catheterization methods and indwelling catheterization methods on the urinary tract infection in patients with spinal cord injury.METHODS After eighty cases of spinal cord injury,the urine retention patients caused by bladder dysfunction were respectively used intermittent catheterization and indwelling catheterization.The urinary tract infection rates of regucally urine culture were compared.By use of intermittent catheterization,the bladder function was trained.Bacteria culture and identification of the urine from the patients were conducted after 15 or 30 days of intermittent catheterization and indwelling catheterization respectively.RESULTS The rates of urinary tract infection(colony count≥1?10 CFU/ml) after 15 or 30 days of intermittent catheterization were 32.6% and 31.5%,respectively.Which were significantly lower than those of indwelling catheterization(100%)(P

Objective To explore the effects of physical exercises on recurrent seizures-induced long-term learning and memory deficits and on the expression of zinc transporter-3(ZnT-3)in hippocampuses of developmental period rats.Methods Sprague-Dawley rats aged 21 d were randomly divided into blank control group,exercises control group,seizure group and seizure plus exercises group.Abdominal cavity injections of penicillin or saline were used to induce recurrent seizure or as a control in the corresponding groups.During the postnatal(P)39-44 d and P61-65 d periods,Morris water-maze tests were administered to evaluate spatial learning and memory capacity.During the P48-53 d period,the rats in exercises control and seizure plus exercises groups were subjected to a 30-min daily aerobic exercises program for 6 d.The real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)method was used to detect the expression of ZuT-3 mRNA in hippocampuses of all rats at P66 d. Results Searching strategy:There was a decreasing incidence of marginal strategy and an increasing trend in the use of taxis and straight line strategy in all four groups.The scores on d 1 and 4 were significantly higher in two control groups than in two seizure groups in water-maze test(all P＜0.05).By d 2 the exercises control and seizure plus exercises groups were scoring significantly higher than the bland control and seizure groups(P＜0.05).Memory test:The frequency of passing through the platform quadrant decreased significantly in the two seizure groups compared to the two control groups in both probe tests(all P＜0.05).RT-PCR test:ZnT-3 mRNA expressions in hippocampuses were significantly higher in seizure plus exercises group than in any other groups. Conclusions Penicillin-induced recurrent seizures can induce long-term damage on learning and memory capacity in developmerital period rats.Physical exercises can improve learning capacity.It's mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of ZnT-3 expression in hippocampus of rats.

Objective To investigate the effect of stellate ganglion block(SGB)on heart mte variability (HRV)during thyroidectomy performed under cervical plexus block.Methods Forty-five ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ pafients of both sexy8(8 males,37 females) aged 20-60 yr,weighing 40-70 kg undergoing elective thyroidectomy under cervical plexus block were randomly divided into 3 groups(n=15 each):group Ⅰ control,group Ⅱ left SGB and group Ⅲ right SGB.The parameters of HRV included low frequency(LF),high frequency(HF),LFnu,HFnu and LF/HF ratio.SBP,DBP,HB and HRV parameters were recorded before anesthesia(To,baseline),immediately(T1) and at 5 and 10 rain after cervical plexus block(T2,T3),at the beginning and end of operation (T4,T5).Results SBP and DBP were significantly increased at different time points after cervical plexus block in all 3 groups.Compared with the baseline at T0,LFnu and LF/HF ratio were significantly increased while HR,HF and HFnu decreased during operation in group Ⅰ,LF,HF and HFnu were significantly decreased while HR increased during operation in group Ⅲ(P<0.05),but no significant change in HRV parameters was found during operation in group Ⅱ(P>0.05).Compared with group Ⅰ,HR and LFnu were significantly decreased while HF and HFnu increased in group Ⅱ(P<0.05),but no significant change was found in the indexes mentioned abovein group Ⅲ (P>0.05).Conclusion SGB can adjust cervical plexus block-induced sympathetic excitability and maintain the balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic tension.Left SGB outweighs right SGB.

Objective To identify the effects of parenteral nutrition (PN) on the gene expressions of rat intestinal inflammatory cytokincs and receptors and to explore the role of these changes in PN-related intestinal impairment. Methods Totally 12 male Sprague-Dawley rats were equally divided into the control group and the PN group. A silastic catheter was inserted into the right jugular vein of each rat. No food or water was administered to the PN group except for a continuous 24-hour PN infusion through the silastic catheter in the jugular vein. The control group, while being regularly fed, was administered with an infusion of normal saline through the silastic catheter in thc jugular vein. After 7 days, intestinal tissues were taken for electron microscopy and real-time PCR array to analyze thc microstructure change in rat intestine and thc gene expressions of inflammatory cytokines and their receptors. Results Electron microscopy revealed atrophy of microvillus, engorgement of mitochondria, cell-cell junction breakage, and several apoptotic bodies in the PN group and normal intestinal microstructure in the control group. Compared with the control group, the PN group showed an up-regulation in the gene expressions of interferon γ, interleukin-1 receptor type I , interlcukin-8 receptor type b and a down-regulation in the gene expressions of CC chemokine ligand 17 (CCL17) , CCL19, CCL21, CCL22, CCL9, CXC chemokine receptor 3, CC chemokine receptor 3 ( CCP3 ), CCR7, CCR5, C-reactive protein, and interleukin-10. Conclusions PN influences the gene expressions of rat intestinal inflammatory cytokincs and receptors. The expression of cytokine interferon γ increases and that of interleukin-10 declines, and the expressions of CCL19, CCL21, CXC chemokine receptor 3, CCR3,CCR7, and CCR5 decline. The alterations of these genes may be associated with the impairment of intestinal immune and mechanical functions.

Objective To observe the iffectiveness of comprehensive rehabilitationinterventions on stroke patients with unilateral spatial neglect (USN). Methods A total of 245 cases if strijd were examined to diagnose USN. Of the 245 patients,86 cases were diagnosed as being with USN, and divided into a control group(n=43 cases) and a treatment group (n=43 cases) randomly. The control group was treated with Bobath and Rood techniques in addition to routine clinical medical interventions, while the treatment group was treated with a comprehensive rehabilitation protocol for USN in addition to the same interventions for the control group. Both groups were assessed with regard to motor, balance function, walking performance, and USN severity as well as the activities of daily living (ADL) performance. Results After 8 weeks of treatment,both groups improved, but there showed a significantly statistical difference between the 2 groups in terms of Fugl-Meyer motor function scores (P＜0.01), balance function scores (P＜0.01) Holden walding function classifications (P＜0.01), Barthel index(P＜0.001) and USN severity scores(P＜0.01). Conclusion Comprehensive USN rehabilitation intervention could improve motor, balance, walking functions and ADL performance and alleviate the USN severity in stroke patients with USN.

Objective To explore the effects of virtual reality (VR) combined with motor imagery therapy on the upper limb function of hemiplegic stroke survivors.Methods Thirty-nine hemiplegic stroke patients were divided randomly into a treatment group (n =20) and a control group (n =19).Both groups were treated with motor imagery therapy,but the treatment group also received VR training lasting 20 min/day,6 days/week for 8 weeks.All of the patients were assessed with the Fugl-Meyer (FMA) upper limb assessment,the modified Barthel index (MBI) and electromyography at the beginning and after eight weeks of treatment.Results Before the intervention there was no significant difference between the groups in any of the assessments.After eight weeks of treatment,all the assessment results in the treatment group were significantly better than those in the control group.Conclusion Virtual reality combined with motor imagery therapy can distinctly improve the upper limb motor function of hemiplegic stroke survivors and their ability in the activities of daily living.

Objective To investigate the correlation of multidrug resistance gene 1 (MDR1),NR3C1 gene polymorphisms and clinical risk factors with efficacy,dependence,and resistance of glucocorticoid (GC) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).Methods Anti coagulation blood samples of 196 healthy controls and 105 IBD patients received GC therapy were collected.There were 62 ulcerative colitis (UC) and 43 Crohn's disease (CD) in the IBD patients.The number of GC sensitive,GC dependent and GC resistant of UC patients were 36,13 and 13,respectively,and those of CD patients were 24,11 and eight.GC refractoriness included GC dependence and resistance.The genotype of MDR1 C3435T and NR3C1 Bcl Ⅰ of all the subjects was detected by the restriction fragment length polymorphism-polymerase chain reaction (RFLP-PCR).The correlation between each genotype frequency,clinical features of patients with IBD and the efficacy of GC treatment was analyzed by Chisquare test,Fisher exact probability method or t test.Results Among UC patients,the disease course of GC refractory group and GC resistant group was longer than that of GC sensitive group ((6.660±1.523)years,(6.500±1.111) yearsvs (3.350±0.697) years,t=2.211,P=0.031; t=2.930,P=0.005).The serum level of C reaction protein (CRP) of GC refractory group was higher than that of GC sensitive group ((47.628±13.913) mg/Lvs (16.854±4.121) mg/L,t=2.121,P=0.047).The chronic relapse type was more common in GC refractory UC patients (Fisher exact probability method,P=0.035),and severe patients were more common in UC with GC resistance (Fisher exact probability method,P=0.021).The white blood cell count of GC resistant and GC refractory CD patient was lower than that of GC sensitive CD patients ((5.710 ± 0.604) ×109/L,(5.878±0.405) × 109/L vs (7.814 ±0.670) × 109/L,t=2.334,P=0.028; t=2.045,P=0.018).Patients with extraqntestinal manifestations was more common in CD with GC resistance (Fisher exact probability method,P=0.035).There was no statistically significant difference in the frequencies of MDR1 C3435T,NR3C1 Bcl Ⅰ genotypes,allelic genes and gene carrier among control group and GC sensitive dependent and resistant group of IBD patients.However,the frequency of MDR1 C3435T gene carrier was significantly different between GC sensitive group and GC refractory group,especially between GC sensitive group and GC resistance group (68.33％ vs 48.89％,x2 =4.051,P=0.044; 68.33％ vs 42.86％,x2 =4.274,P =0.039).Conclusions GC sensitivity of IBD patients with MDR1 C3435T loci T gene carrier was higher than that of IBD patients without T gene carrier.NR3C1 gene polymorphisms was not related with GC resistance and GC dependence.Compared with GC sensitive IBD patients,in GC resistant and GC dependent IBD pantient UC patients with long disease course,chronic relapse type,severe type,high level of CRP and CD patients with low white blood cell count and extra-intestinal manifestations were more common.

Objective: To study the mechanism of jindengshanggen (JDSG) oral liquid's anti infectiion effect.Methods: inhibition on bacteria growth, resistance to Escherichia coli endotoxin and measurement of monocytic phagocaryosis in mice were taken. Results: The effects of JDSG oral liquid is probably not due to the inhibition on bacteria growth, but rather due to its stimulation on other anti infection mechanisms in human body. The enhancement of immune response and toxin tolerance may be one of the mechanisms for JDSG oral liquid to cure acute pharynx infection. Conclusions: These results provide a basis for clinical application of JDSG.
