OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution of commonly encountered pathogenic microbes during the last five years.METHODS A total of 9318 strains of NI pathogens during from Jan 2004 to Dec 2008 were surveyed and analyzed.RESULTS From them the percentage of Gram-positive cocci was 13.6%,the main pathogen was coagulase negative Staphylococcus,Gram-negative bacilli(28.8%).The predominant pathogens were Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.The drug resistance of NI pathogens was markedly increased.Especially,the rate of drug resistance of P.aeruginosa to imipenem was from 0 to 31.8% in 2005,and that of Enterococcus to vancomycin was 4.0% in 2007.The percentage of fungi was 26.4% and increased sharply year by year.CONCLUSIONS The Gram-negative bacteria play a dominant role in clinics and drug resistance of isolated pathogenic bacteria is a serious problem.Monitoring the trends of pathogenic bacteria′s distribution and drug resistance is very important in guiding the clinical administration of drugs and we should pay attention to fungal infection.

Objective To increase the sensitivity of residual leukemic cells detectin in chronic myelocytic leukemia(CML) patients with RT-PCR,the optional annealing temperature and PCR cycles were studied to confirm bcr-abl fused gene types,and bcr-abl mRNA transcripts were monitored by RQ-PCR to study the relation with CML at different phases. Methods Through changing the PCR conditions, the annealing temperature was measured from 55℃ to 60℃, and the number of reaction cycles was increased from 30 to 45.All 22 samples were examined, and bcr-abl mRNA transcripts were quantified by RQ-PCR kit. Results Bcr-abl fused gene types were found in 22 samples,of all 9 cases were b_2a_2 type, 13 cases were b_3a_2.When the annealing temperature was set for 58℃ and the number of reation cycles was set for 45,10~3 copies/ul standard samples was detected.18 samples were positive tested by RQ-PCR kit,and the value was between 10~2 to 10~6 copies/g.There were significant differce between the results of chronic phase samples and those of accelerated phase. Conclusions The RT-PCR is a reliable,sensitive and reproducible method of monitoring CML patients.The real-time RT-PCR is useful in evaluating leukemic burden,assessing response to treatment and predicating the prognosis of the disease.

Objective:To compare of the effects of laparoscopic and open radical hysterectomy on the serum Interleukin-4(IL-4),interleukin-10 (IL-10),tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α) and Interferon-γ (IFN-γ) levels of Patients with Cervical Cancer.Methods:64 patients of cervical cancer who were treated from March 2014 to September 2016 in our hospital were selected as research objects.The patients were randomly divided into the abdominal cavity group and open group.The operative time,blood loss,postoperative ventilation time and the levels of IL-4,IL-10,TNF-a and IFN-γin serum before and after treatment were compared between the two groups.Results:The intraoperative blood loss and postoperative ventilation time were significantly lower or shorter in the abdominal cavity group than in the open group (P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the operation time between the two groups (P＞0.05).There were no significant differences in the levels of serum IL-4,IL-10,TNF-α and IFN-γ between the two groups before operation(P＞0.05);The serum IL-4 level was significantly lower than that of the open group during the operation (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the other three index between the other three groups and the laparotomy group (P＞0.05).The serum levels of IL-4,IL-10,TNF-α and IFN-γ in the abdominal cavity group were significantly lower than those of the laparotomy group on the 1 st and 7th day after operation(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Laparoscopic radical mastectomy in cervical intraoperative less blood loss and more secure.The effect of IL-4,IL-10,TNF-α and IFN-γin the postoperative patients was more obvious.Conducive to the recovery of patients after surgery.

Objective To investigate the changes in high voltage-activated (HVA) calcium current in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons isolated from rats with neuropathic pain. Methods Pathogen-free male SD rats aged 4-6 weeks weighing 180-220 g were used in this study. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital sodium 50 mg/kg. Neuropathic pain was induced by ligation of L5 spinal nerve between DRG and sciatic nerve. The nerve was transected distal to the ligature. The animals which showed positive signs of neuropathic pain were decapitated on the 14th postoperative day. L5 and L4 DRGs were isolated and the neurons in the ganglia were enzymatically dissociated (group L5 and L4). The control group received no surgery (group C). The HVA Ca2+ current was recorded using whole-cell patch clamp technique. Results Peak calcium current density was significantly lower in group L5 and L4 than in group C, and was significantly lower in group L5 than in group L4 . Halfactivation value (Va 1/2) was also significantly lower in group L5 than in group C and L4 (P ＜ 0.05). The relative contribution of N-type to the total HVA Ca2+ current was significantly greater in group L5 than in group C and L4(P ＜ 0.05). There was no significant difference in the steady-state inactivation curves among the 3 groups. Conclusion In rats with neuropathic pain, the HVA Ca2+ current in the injured DRG neurons may play a key role in the induction of neuropathic pain.

Objective To examine the application of On-Board Imaging (OBI) system-based image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) in the improvement of the precision of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods Ten patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma were treated with IMRT using the OBI system. The IGRT images after positioning, position adjustment, and treatment were observed and recorded to investigate the image difference between CT simulation and IGRT. Results The deviations in the x (lateral), y (cranial-caudal), and z (ventral-dorsal) directions between CT simulation and IGRT images were 0.22±1.00 mm,-0.37±1.28 mm, and 0.04±1.36 mm, respectively, after positioning, 0.29±0.76 mm,-0.04±0.78 mm, and -0.01±0.92 mm, respectively, after position adjustment, and 0.20±0.78 mm, 0.16±0.80 mm, and 0.05±0.92 mm, respectively, after treatment. The probabilities of a ≤1 mm deviation in the x, y, and z directions were 81.0%, 77.6%, and 88.2%, respectively, after positioning, 92.5%, 96.4%, and 96.4%, respectively, after position adjustment, and 91.7%, 94.9%, and 96.8%, respectively, after treatment. Conclusions The application of OBI system-based IGRT is very important in the improvement of the precision of fractionated IMRT for patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The position of the patient should be adjusted based on the IGRT image after positioning in order to correct set-up error and effectively increase the precision of fractionated IMRT.

Objective To investigate the effect of gabapentin on high voltage active calcium currents in the injured dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons in a rat model of neuropathic pain.Methods Pathogen-free male SD rats aged 4-6 weeks were used in this study. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital soclium 50 mg/kg. L_5 spinal nerve was ligated between DRG and sciatic nerve and cut distal to the ligature. The animals were decapitated on the 14th postoperative day. L_5 DRG was isolated and the neurons in the ganglion were enzymatically dissociated. The high voltage active calcium current was recorded using whole-cell patch-clamp technique.Results Gabapentin inhibited the peak calcium current in the injured DEG neurons. Peak calcium current was decreased by gabapentin 100 μmol/L and both activation and steady-state inactivation curve shifted to more hyperpolarized potentials. Conclusion Gabapentin can inhibit high voltage active in the injured DRG neurons in a rat model of neuropathic pain. The alteration in the inactivation of the electrophysiological properties may be involved in the mechanism.

Objective:To propose a method of image similarity measurement based on structure information and intuitionistic fuzzy set and measure the similarity between CT image and CBCT image of radiotherapy plan positioning, aiming to objectively measure the setup errors.Methods:A total of four pre-registration images of a nasopharyngeal carcinoma patient on the cross-sectional and sagittal planes and a pelvic tumor patient on the cross-sectional and coronal planes were randomly selected. Five methods were used to quantify the setup errors, including correlation coefficient, mean square error, image joint entropy, mutual information and similarity measure method.Results:All five methods could describe the deviation to a certain extent. Compared with other methods, the similarity measure method showed a stronger upward trend with the increase of errors. After normalization, the results of five types of error increase on the cross-sectional plane of the nasopharyngeal carcinoma patient were 0.553, 0.683, 1.055, 1.995, 5.151, and 1.171, 1.618, 1.962, 1.790, 3.572 on the sagittal plane, respectively. The results of other methods were between 0 and 2 after normalization, and the results of different errors of the same method slightly changed. In addition, the method was more sensitive to the soft tissue errors.Conclusions:The image similarity measurement method based on structure information and intuitionistic fuzzy set is more consistent with human eye perception than the existing evaluation methods. The errors between bone markers and soft tissues can be objectively quantified to certain extent. The soft tissue deviation reflected by the setup errors is of significance for individualized precision radiotherapy.

Objective: To quantitatively evaluate dose accuracy of radiotherapy for cervical cancer. Methods: A CT image correction algorithm based on image transformation was proposed. Referring to CBCT images, CT images of radiotherapy plan for cervical cancer were corrected to obtain the corrected images which could reflect the actual body position of treatment. The clinical plan was transplanted to the corrected images for dose recalculation as a test plan, and the dosimetry parameters were statistically compared to evaluate the dose accuracy. Results: Both of the target coverage of contrast plans could meet the clinical requirements (>98%), and there was no significant difference in the homogeneity index (P=0.150). The conformability of the test plan was significantly worse than that of the clinical plan (P<0.05). The maximum dose of each organ at risk in the test plan was approximately 30 cGy higher than that of the clinical plan (P<0.05), V₅₀ was slightly higher than that of the clinical plan, whereas the average dose (D_mean) did not significantly differ. Conclusion The CT image correction algorithm based on image transformation can quantitatively evaluate the dose accuracy of radiotherapy for cervical cancer, which provides reference for resolving similar problems in clinical practice.

Objective: To investigate the distribution and resistance of pathogens isolated from blood cultures in patients with hematological malignancies after chemotherapy in Union Hospital of Fujian Medical University so as to understand the real situation of blood stream infection (BSI) and provide the basis for rational use of antibiotics in clinic. Methods: The data of 657 strains isolated from blood culture specimens of patients with hematological malignancies from January 2013 to December 2016 were collected analyzed. Results: A total of 657 cases of blood culture positive bacterial strains were included in the study, involving 410 cases (62.4%) with single Gram-negative bacteria (G^- bacteria) , 163 cases (24.8%) with single Gram-positive bacteria (G⁺ bacteria) , 50 cases (7.6%) with single fungi. The most common 5 isolates in blood culture were Klebsiella pneumoniae (17.5%) , Escherichia coli (17.2%) , Coagulase negative staphylococci (CNS) (14.9%) , Pseudomonas aeruginosa (14.2%) and Staphylococcus aureus (3.5%) . The extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) production rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli were 25.2% and 55.8%, respectively. ESBL producing strains were almost more resistant than non-ESBL producing strains. The resistance rates of Enterobacteriaceae to carbapenems, piperacillin/tazobactam and tigecycline were lower than 14.0%. The resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to a variety of drugs were lower than 12.0%. Tigecycline-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii bacteria were not detected, and the resistance rates of Acinetobacter baumannii to cefixime and cefotaxime were 7.1%. Methicillin-resistant strains in CNS (MRCNS) and in Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) accounted for 84.7% and 43.5%, respectively. Vancomycin, linezolid and tigecycline-resistant G⁺ bacteria were not detected. Conclusion The pathogens isolated from blood culture were widely distributed. Most of them were G^- bacteria, and the resistance to antibiotics was quite common. Furhermore, vancomycin, linezolid and tigecycline can be chosen empirically to treat patiens who ar suspected to have G⁺ bacterial BSI.

Objective To investigate the effect of butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection on patients who received endovascular treatment for acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusive stroke.Methods A total of 173 patients were identified from February 2015 to December 2017 in the Department of Neurology of Jingling Hospital in this retrospective observational study.Propensity score-matching analysis was performed to balance differences in baseline characteristics between patients who received butylphthalide injection (butylphthalide group) and those who did not (control group).The modified Rankin Scale scores at 90 days were compared between the butylphthalide and control groups.Results A total of 144 patients who received endovascular treatment for acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusive stroke were finally analyzed,54 cases in the butylphthalide group and 90 cases in the control group.The proportion of good functional outcome at 90 days in the butylphthalide group was higher than that in the control group (63.0％ (34/54) vs 44.4％ (40/90);x2=4.633,P=0.031).Thirty-six pairs were matched successfully by the propensity score matching,36 patients in the butylphthalide group and 36 in the control group.There was no statistically significant difference in the 90-day functional outcome between the two groups (66.7％ (24/36) vs 44.4％ (16/36);x2=3.600,P=0.058).One hundred and fifteen patients were recanalized,47 cases in the butylphthalide group and 68 cases in the control group,and after the propensity score matching,30 pairs were analyzed.The proportion of good functional outcome at 90 days in the butylphthalide group was higher than that in the control group (73.3％ (22/30) vs 46.7％ (14/30);x2=4.444,P=0.035).Conclusion After propensity score-matching,butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection could improve 90-day functional outcome in patients with acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusive stroke and obtained recanalization by endovascular treatment while could not before propensity score-matching.
