Objectives To determine the significance of serum total bile acid (TBA) in the diagnosis and treatment of infantile hepatitis syndrome. Methods Serum TBA and other liver function related items were determined with automatic enzymatic assay techniques in 67 with infantile hepatitis syndrome patients (age 26 days~7 months) and 100 normal infants (age 20 days~1 year). Results In the control group, the serum TAB level was 0~11.3 ?mol/L. TBA level was abnormal in 89.5% patients and the values were 0.5~226.0 ?mol/L ?s =(79 5?54.3) ?mol/L]. The difference was significant between the two groups. The TBA levels were well related to those of ALP, DBIL and ? GT and TBA was better than others in sensitivity and specificity. . The difference was significant between the two groups. The TBA levels were well related to those of ALP, DBIL and ? GT and TBA was better than others in sensitivity and specificity. Conclusion Serum TBA level is important in evaluating the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of infantile hepatitis syndrome.

Objective To distinguish BRO ?-lactamase by use of restriction endonuclease analysis and investigate antibacterial agents resistance of Moraxella catarrhalis(M. Catarrhalis) with different BRO ?-lactamases .Methods Nasopharyngeal swabs of children with respiratory tract infections from the outpatient department of Beijing Children's Hospital were cultured for isolating M.Catarrhalis. BSAC(british society for antimicrobial chemotherapy) agar diffusion test was used to determine antibacterial agents resistance of M.Catarrhalis.Nitrocefin disk was used to detect ?-lactamase. Restriction endonuclease analysis was used to distinguish BRO ?-lactamases . Antibacterial agents resistance of M. Catarrhalis with different bro genes was compared.Results (1)95.0% of the 80 strains were beta-lactamase positive. MIC 90 of ampicillin was 32 ?g/ml and MIC 90 of cefuroxime,cefaclor and cefotaxime were 4 ?g/ml,8?g/ml and 1?g/ml respectively,MIC 90 of tetracycline was 16?g/ml. Among the antibacterial agents,ciprofloxacin was the most sensintive agent.(2)Among 80 strains,6(7.5%) Strains were bro negative,55(68.8%) were bro-1 positive,19(23.8%)were bro-2 positive。Except 2 strains,the results of ?-lactamases were same as the results of nitrocefin disk and restriction endonuclease analysis.(3)Compared with bro-2 positive strains,the MIC value of ampicillin and cefaclor for bro-1 positive strains were higher.Conclusions Antibacterial agents resistance of M. Catarrhalis to ampicillin was sierous in China. It should be strengthened to monitor antibacterial agents resistance of M.Catarrhalis. Restriction endonuclease analysis can play an important role on characterizing bro genes,evaluating antibacterial agents resistance of Moraxella Catarrhalis to ?-lactam and investigating molecular epideminology

Objective:To determine the accuracy and clinical application of donor HLA quartile genotyping based upon transplanted kidney biopsy.Methods:The clinical and follow-up data are retrospectively reviewed for 38 recipients of kidney transplantation(KT)at First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from 2019 to 2022.They are suspected of rejection.HLA quartile genotyping of donor kidney is performed through puncture and DNA analysis by LABType SSO method.Known HLA genotypes of recipients are compared for predicting HLA genotypes of donors.Donor-specific antibody(DSA)is detected by Labscreen Single kit.And SPSS18.0 statistical software is employed for processing baseline data, donor/recipient HLA typing data, recipient DSA antibody data and transplant nephropathy parameters.Results:Among them, 12(31.58%)belonged to HLA-A, B, C, DR and DQ.Four loci are detected in 14 cases(36.84%). Three sites are detected in 10 cases(26.32%). Two sites are detected in 2 cases(5.26%)and a negative correlation exists between detected sites and transplantation time( rs=-0.707, P=0.001). The detection rate of HLA loci is 78.94%(30 cases). B: 65.78%(25 cases); C: 84.21%(32 cases); DR: 57.89%(22 cases); DQ: 100% (38 cases); HLA sites detected in puncture tissue are 89.47% consistent with the results of donor whole blood test, among which HLA-C and HLA-DQ sites are 100% consistent and HLA-A and HLA-B sites 87.50% and 90% consistent and HLA-DR sites 66.7% consistent( P<0.01). Spearman's rank correlation analysis indicated that pathological diagnosis of interstitial inflammation( rs=-0.432, P=0.017), renal tubule atrophy( rs=-0.587, P=0.001)and interstitial fibrosis( rs=-0.560, P=0.001)are correlated negatively with HLA detected sites in transplanted kidney puncture tissue.DSA is detected in 42.1% of recipients and 68.75% of recipients belonged to HLA-DQ. Conclusions:HLA typing results of puncture tissue are consistent with those of whole blood test.Time after transplantation, infiltration of transplanted nephritis cells and degree of fibrosis may influence the detection of HLA loci.Donor HLA quartile genotyping using transplanted kidney biopsy has some diagnostic values for detecting the presence of DSA.
