OBJECTIVE:To screen and analyze the ?-lactamases-resistant genes in imipenem-resistant pseudomonas aeruginosa (IMPRPa). METHODS: ?-lactamases-resistant genes including IMP,VIM and OprD2 in 60 clinically isolated IMPRPa strains were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR),and sequence analysis was performed on the PCR amplified products of some of IMP and VIM genes. RESULTS: Of the 60 IMPRPa strains,?-lactamases-resistant positive genes were as follows: IMP gene was positive in 7 strains,VIM gene was positive in 18 strains,and both IMP and VIM genes were positive in 3 strains. Sequencing of the PCR products of IMP and VIM genes were IMP-1 and VIM-2 types,and OprD2 gene deletion was noted in 29 strains. CONCLUSION: OprD2 protein channel deletion and metal-producing ?-lactamases are the chief mechanisms for the resistance of IMPRPa to imipenem.

Objective To describe the self-management behaviors and self-efficacy in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) and to explore the relationship between them. Methods The Chronic Disease Self-Management Study Measures and the Chronic Disease Self-Efficacy Scale were used to investigate a total of 113 patients with chronic low back pain. Results The average score of self-management behavior of CLBP patients was 21.42 ± 8.11. The average time for exercise was (168.72 ± 148.97) min/week;the average level of cognitive symptoms management practice and communication with physicians were 1.70 ± 0.74 and 2.10 ± 1.05 respectively. The self-efficacy was achieved the average level of 7.10 ± 1.88. There was a positive and significant correlation between the self-management behaviors and self-efficacy (P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions The self-management behaviors among patients with chronic low back pain was poor and was related with self-efficacy. Individualized health education was needed for improving self-efficacy, which would be benefit for self-management behaviors.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of serous cystadenoma of the pancreas. Methods The clinical data of 18 patients with serous cystadenoma of the pancreas which were admitted into the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University from October 1999 to October 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. Results There were 15 females(83.3%) and 3 males (16.7%).Tumors were present in the pancreatic body and tail in 12 cases ( 66. 7% ), in the pancreatic head in 3 cases ( 16. 7% ) and in the pancreatic neck in 3 cases( 16. 7% ). The mean maximum diameter of the tumor was 6. 5 cm. No specific clinical features were indentified. The size of the tumor was significantly correlated with clinical symptoms. CT was main examination with correct diagnosing rate of 61.1%. All 18 patients received surgical resection. Pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed in 3 patients, distal pancreatectomy in 5 cases,spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy in 5 cases, middle pancreatectomy in 3 cases, and tumor enucleation in 2 cases. Postoperative pancreatic fistula developed in 10 cases (55.6%);Fistula was healed by conservative therapy in all these 10 cases. Postoperative followed up from 6 to 125 months (mean,48. 3months) found no recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions CT was main imaging examination for serous cystadenoma of the pancreas. Surgical resection should be adopted for serous cystadenoma of the pancreas with clinical symptoms but uncertain malignancy.

Objective To study the prevalence trends and etiology of hand,foot,and mouth disease (HFMD) in hospitalized children.Methods The clinical data of 11 510 cases of children hospitalized with HFMD from 2008 to 2017 in Department of Infection Diseases of Kunming Children's Hospital were collected,and to retrospectively analyze the characteristics,time distribution and pathogen distribution of the cases.Results Of the 11 510 children with HFMD,6 100 were male and 5 410 were female.There were 9 814 cases under 3 years old,1 696 over 3 years old.HFMD occurred throughout the year.The peak months of the disease were April to July,with the time distribution of single peak.There were 4 690 severe cases and 3 452 critical cases,accounting for 70.34％.The main pathogens detected were enteroviruses A71 (EV-A71),coxsackievirus A16 (CV-A16) and other enteroviruses (EV),with 3 803 cases (36.02％),1 122 cases (10.63％) and 3 401 cases (32.21％) respectively.EV-A71 and CV-A16 infections dominated from 2008 to 2013,while EV-A71 and other EV infection dominated from 2014 to 2017.Conclusions EV-A71,CV-A16 and other EV are the main pathogens of HFMD in Kunming.Critical HFMD cases are mainly caused by EV-A71 infection.
