Objective To establish a REDE-DHPLC method for detecting the EGFR and KRAS mutations in plasma DNA from tumor patients, and investigate its clinical significance. Methods Restriction endonucleases Mse Ⅰ , Msc Ⅰ , BstN Ⅰ and Bgl Ⅰ were used to digest the wild type fragments of exon 19,exon 21 of EGFR gene and coden 12, 13 of KRAS gene for enriching the mutation fragments, and REDE-DHPLC method was established to detect EGFR and KRAS mutations. The sensitivities of REDE-DHPLC and conventional DHPLC were analyzed by using a series of plasmids containing 50%, 10%, 5%, 1% and 0. 1% mutation genes. Then, Plasma samples and paraffin-embedded tissue samples of 120 NSCLC patients and 120 colorectal cancer patients were detected by REDE-DHPLC. Compared with conventional DHPLC and sequencing, the diagnostic efficiency of REDE-DHPLC method was evaluated by detecting the mutation status of 2 genes in plasma of NSCLC and colorectal cancer patients. Results The sensitivity values of REDE-DHPLC and conventional DHPLC for detecting mutations in 4 loci were 0. 1% and 1%respectively. Plasmid DNA containing 0.1% mutation gene was detected to be positive continually for 2 to 3 times by REDE-DHPLC. EGFR mutation rates of 120 plasma from NSCLC patients detected by REDE-DHPLC, conventional DHPLC and sequencing methods were 27. 5%, 16. 7% and 12.5% respectively, and KRAS mutation rates of 120 plasma from colorectal cancer patients were 38. 3%, 25. 8% and 16. 7%,respectively. The positive rates of EGFR and KRAS mutation detected by REDE-DHPLC were significantly higher than conventional DHPLC(x2 = 4. 092, 4. 301, all P < 0. 05 ) and sequencing method (x2= 8. 438,14. 127,all P < 0. 05 ). In comparison with conventional DHPLC, the sensitivities of REDE-DHPLC for detecting EGFR and KRAS mutation were 100% (20/20,31/31), the specificities were 87. 0% (87/100)and 83. 2% (74/89). In comparison with sequencing method, the sensitivities of REDE-DHPLC were 100%( 15/15,20/20), the specificities were 82.9% (87/105)and 74. 0% (74/100). The coincidence rate of the two methods for detecting EGFR and KRAS mutation were 89. 2% ( 107/120, Kappa = 0. 690, P < 0. 05 ) and 87.5% ( 105/120, Kappa= 0. 718, P < 0. 05 ). The Consistency of EGFR and KRAS mutation status in plasma and tissues detected by REDE-DHPLC were 91.7% (33/36, Kappa =0. 939,P <0. 05)and 90. 2 %(46/51, Kappa = 0. 914, P < 0. 05 ), respectively. Conclusions The REDE-DHPLC method is highly sensitive and specific for detecting EGFR and KRAS mutations in plasma DNA from tumor patients. The results are easy to be interpreted without missing homozygous point mutation, which indicate that the detection of EGFR and KRAS mutations in plasma DNA by REDE-DHPLC could therefore extend to be usedin clinical laboratory.

OBJECTIVE: The pathogenesis of depression is not fully understood yet, but studies have suggested higher circulating C reactive protein (CRP) level might relate to depression occurrence. However, due to high variability of patients’ individual condition, the results to date are inconsistent. Considering CRP single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) could also regulate plasma CRP levels, in the present study, we hypothesized that inherited CRP allelic variations may co-vary with depressive symptomatology. METHODS: We recruited 60 depression patients with family depression history and 60 healthy control volunteers into this project. We detected circulation CRP level as well as genome CRP SNPs from participants of this project. RESULTS: We have found a significantly higher circulating CRP level in patients with a positive family history. Furthermore, we also identified some certain inherited CRP SNPs (A allele in rs1417938 and C allele in rs1205) could up regulate serum CRP level and distributed more in depression patients with family history. CONCLUSION: Our finding may raise new evidence that genetically increased serum CRP level through SNPs variation is likely to induce family inherited depression.

Objective To investigate the morbidity and risk factors of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) related bloodstream infection and the distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility of pathogens in patients with hematological malignancy for better prevention and management of such infections. Methods The relevant data were collected from the patients with hematologic malignancy and PICC in hematology department from July 2013 to November 2016. The risk factors of PICC related bloodstream infection were analyzed. Blood samples and catheter-related blood samples were taken for culture of pathogens. The pathogens were identified on VITEK-32. Antimicrobial susceptibility was tested by using Kirby-Bauer method. Results A total of 10 213 patients with PICC were included in this study. PICC related bloodstream infection was identified in 280 (2.74%) patients, about 0.55 per 1 000 PICC days. The main risk factors of PICC related bloodstream infection were type of hematological malignancy (P<0.001) and days of indwelling PICC (P<0.001). A total of 322 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated, including gam-negative bacteria (73.91%), gam positive bacteria (22.05%) and fungus (4.04%). The gram-negative species isolated from bloodstream were mainly Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. E. coli and K. pneumoniae isolates were relatively sensitive to piperacillin-tazobactam, cefepime, cefoperazone-sulbactam, imipenem, gentamicin and amikacin. S. maltophilia isolates were relatively sensitive to piperacillin-tazobactam, ceftazidime, cefoperazone sulbactam and ciprofloxacin, while P. aeruginosa strains were relatively sensitive to the commonly used anti-Pseudomonas antibiotics. The gram-positive isolates including Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus hominis and Staphylococcus haemolyticus were all susceptible to vancomycin, linezolid, and teicoplanin. The most frequently identified fungal species was Candida tropicalis. Conclusions Prolonged duration of PICC may increase the risk of central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI). The incidence of CLABSI is associated with the type of hematological malignancy. CLABSI pathogens are mainly gram-negative microorganisms with various levels of antibiotic resistance. Clinicians should adhere to standard operating procedures, strengthen surveillance of patients with PICC, evaluate the risk dynamically, and remove PICC as early as possible.
