Objective To explore the practice and efficacy of multidisciplinary collaborative management in the prevention and control of multidrug-resistant organism(MDRO)healthcare-associated infection(HAI).Methods MDROs isolated from clinical specimens and MDRO infection in hospitalized patients in April 2012-March 2013(before intervention)and April 2013-March 2014(after intervention)were analyzed retrospectively.Since April 2013,multidisciplinary collaborative management has been implemented,isolation of MDROs and MDRO HAI in hospitalized patients before and after intervention were compared and analyzed.Results 798 and 833 MDRO strains were isolated before and after the intervention respectively,isolation rate of MDROs after intervention was lower than that before intervention(25.71%vs 31.89%,P<0.001).After the implementation of multidisciplinary collaborative management,incidence of MDRO HAI decreased from 0.94%before intervention to 0.63%;hand hygiene compliance rate of health care workers(HCWs)increased from 36.44%before intervention to 53.51%;compliance rate of contact isolation increased from 65.29%before intervention to 90.88%;rational usage rate of antimicrobial agents increased from 64.93%before intervention to 72.53%;specimen detection rate in patients with therapeutic antimicrobial use increased from 41.36%before intervention to 58.72%,differences were all statistically significant(all P<0.001).Conclusion The practice of multidisciplinary collaborative management can effectively implement the prevention and control measures of MDRO HAI,effectively reduce the occurrence of MDRO HAI.

OBJECTIVE: To learn the clinical features of patients infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae in our hospital.METHODS: From 2006 and 2007,a total of 96 inpatients in our hospital that were confirmed to be infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae by sputum culture were collected for a study of their clinical features and drug susceptibility test results.RESULTS: Patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae infection represented 12.7% of the total concurrent pulmonary infection cases,of which,57 Klebsiella pneumoniae infection cases had concurrent pulmonary tuberculosis(TB),and 39 Klebsiella pneumoniae infection cases had no concurrent TB.Drug susceptibility tests showed that the resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae to third generation cephalosporins and quinolones were higher than those reported in the literature,and the resistant rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae to quinolones in Klebsiella pneumoniae infection patients complicated with TB was higher than those without TB.CONCLUSION: Klebsiella pneumoniae infection was more common in patients with low body resistance,which has typical clinical manifestations.Recently,the resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae to the third generation cephalosporin has been increasing,and its resistance to quinolones in patients with pneumonia Klebsiella infection complicated with TB was significantly higher than in those without TB.

Objective To explore the measurement of(1,3)-β-D glucan in plasma for the diagnosis of pulmonary fungal infections in pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Methods 40 pulmonary tuberculosis patients with pulmonary fungal infections in Guangzhou chest hospital from January 2015 to December 2015 were enrolled as a test group,among which 35 were confirmed and 5 were suspected pulmonary fungal infections. 52 pulmonary tuber-culosis patients without fungal infections were selected as a control group.(1,3)-β-D glucan content(G test)in this 92 patients plasma were detected. The results of G tests were compared with those from etiological diagnosis to assess the performance of G test. Results 13 strains of candida albicans,13 strains of aspergillus,2 strains of candida tropicalis,2 strains of candida glabrata and 6 strains of other yeast were obtained from patients of test group,but no fungal identified from those of control group. The median of G test in test group and in control group was 126.1 and 29.56 pg/mL,respectively,the level in test group was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.001). 35 cases were identified as positive and 5 were negative in test group by G test ,while 41 cases were identified as negative and 11 were positive in control group. The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value, negative predictive value ,concordance and Youden index of G test were 87.5%,78.85%,76.09%,89.13%, 82.6%and 0.663,respectively. Conclusions Candida albicans and aspergillus are more common pathogens than the other fungi isolated from pulmonary tuberculosis patients with pulmonary fungal infection. G test ,used in pul-monary tuberculosis with pulmonary fungal infections diagnosis,is reliable and fast,and has a higher sensitivity, specificity and accuracy.

Objective To explore the relationship between the characteristics of dynamic contrastenhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) and the stages of endometrial cancer.Methods A retrospective analysis of DCE-MRI manifestation in 55 patients with scratch-pathologically confirmed endometrial cancer was performed.All patients were divided into different groups according to differentiation,muscle layer infiltration,cervix involvement and metastasis.The enhanced rate,including the arterial phase relative signal increase ratio (ARSI%),the maximal relative signal increase ratio (MRSI%) and the signal enhancement ratio (SER%),was calculated at different time (i.e.16 s,32 s,48 s,64 s and 300 s),respectively.Time-intensity curves (TIC) of lesions were also obtained and divided into 4 subtypes.Two sample t test was performed to compare the MRSI% among groups,and the Mann-Whitney U test was performed in ARSI% and SER% as well.Results The early phase enhanced rate of normal tissue was 894 ± 355,higher than that of tumor 716 ± 215 (t =-2.911,P < 0.01).The delayed phase enhanced rate of normal tissue was 1111 ± 289,higher than that of tumor 803-± 289 (t =-4.926,P < 0.01).ARSI% of low differentiation group (n =16,M =1.07%) was higher than that of middle to high differentiation group (n =39,M=0.36%).ARSI% of deep muscle layer infiltration group (n =19,M =0.76%) was higher than that of no muscle layer infiltration group (n =36,M =0.32%).ARSI% of cervix involvement group (n =27,M =0.84%) was higher than that of no cervix involvement group (n =28,M =0.25%).SER% of cervix involvement group (n =27,M =2.90%) was higher than that of no involvement group (n =28,M =1.40%) and SER% of parauterine involvement and metastasis group (n =7,M =2.03%) was higher than that of uterine involvement group (n =48,M =1.60%).The differences between these groups were statistically significant (Z =-2.038,-2.260,-2.172,-2.695 and-2.621 respectively,P < 0.05).Based on the TIC types,type Ⅰ occurred in 13 tumors (23.6%),type Ⅱ in 22 tumors (40%),type Ⅲ in 9 tumors (16.4%),and type Ⅳ in 11 tumors (20%).Conclusions Based on TIC curves,most of endometrial cancers showed significant enhancement which reflected of their rich blood supply.The parameters of DCE-MRI is helpful in staging of uterus tumors.

The National Medical Products Administration has authorized sodium oligomannate for treating mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease.In this study,an LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated to quantitate sodium oligomannate in different biomatrices.The plasma pharmacokinetics,tissue distri-bution,and excretion of sodium oligomannate in Sprague-Dawley rats and beagle dogs were system-atically investigated.Despite its complicated structural composition,the absorption,distribution,metabolism,and excretion profiles of the oligosaccharides in sodium oligomannate of different sizes and terminal derivatives were indiscriminate.Sodium oligomannate mainly crossed the gastrointestinal epithelium through paracellular transport following oral administration,with very low oral bioavail-ability in rats(0.6%-1.6%)and dogs(4.5%-9.3%).Absorbed sodium oligomannate mainly resided in circulating body fluids in free form with minimal distribution into erythrocytes and major tissues.So-dium oligomannate could penetrate the blood-cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)barrier of rats,showing a con-stant area under the concentration-time curve ratio(CSF/plasma)of approximately 5%.The cumulative urinary excretion of sodium oligomannate was commensurate with its oral bioavailability,supporting that excretion was predominantly renal,whereas no obvious biliary secretion was observed following a single oral dose to bile duct-cannulated rats.Moreover,only 33.7%(male)and 26.3%(female)of the oral dose were recovered in the rat excreta within 96 h following a single oral administration,suggesting that the intestinal flora may have ingested a portion of unabsorbed sodium oligomannate as a nutrient.
