ObjectiveTo analyze the relative influential factors of hearing rehabilitation of the deafened children with multichannel cochlear implant. Methods42 prelingually deafened children who accepted multichannel cochlear implant were evaluated with their hearing ability, hearing thresholds and talent level, while their family and usage of the multichannel cochlear were investigated. Results and ConclusionThe result shows that the factors influencing the hearing rehabilitation are the occupations of the parents, income of the family, the time between diagnosing deaf and the operation, the time after the cochlear implant operation and the talent level. The results of the logistic regression show that the deafened children can gain their hearing developing rapidly if they living in a family with high income, their mothers have accepted more education, and they accepted longer time of continuing hearing-aid, etc.

AIM: To study the effects of Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription (composition; ginseng, radix astragali, plantaginis semen, lignum sappan, chuanxiong, salvia miltiorrhiza, radix aconiti lateralis preparata, bitter orange, cassia twig) of TCM on the congestive heart failure in rats. METHODS:The rats were given doxorubicin hydrochloride by intraperitoneal injection to establish the model of congestive heart failure and were randomly divided into control group, congestive heart failure model group, Xinbao treatment group ( XB treatment) and Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription treatment group (QXYTM treatment). Normal saline, liquid medicine Xinbao and liquid medicine Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription were administered respectively to four groups by gavage. Radioimmunoassay, semi - quantitative RT - PCR and flow cytometry methods were used to determine the expressions of plasma atrial natriuretic peptide ( ANP) , renal medulla aquaporin - 2 ( AQP2 ) and heat shock protein70 (HSP70) in congestive heart failure rats before and after treatment. RESULTS: In congestive heart failure rats treated with Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription, the cardiac output and left ventricle systolic pressure increased significantly, the left ventricular end diastolic pressure decreased, and the maximum ascending and declining rate of left ventricular pressure ameliorated, thus the hemodynamics was effectively improved. Meanwhile, the level of plasma cardionatrin decreased, the abnormal expression of renal medulla AQP2 was markedly restored, and the transcription and expression of HSP70 gene were also increased. CONCLUSION: Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription promotes the recovery of the pathogenetic conditions of congestive heart failure in rare. The mechanism may be in association with a decrease in plasma ANP level, correction of renal medulla AQP2 abnormal expression and enhancement of HSP70 expression.

Objective To investigate the prevalence, molecular mechanism and genetic characteristics of azithromycin-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae (N.gonorrhoeae) strains isolated in Shenzhen.Methods N.gonorrhoeae strains were collected in Shenzhen from 2011 to 2015.Agar dilution method and E-test were used to detect the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of these strains to azithromycin.All azithromycin-resistant (AZM-R) strains (MIC≥2 μg/ml) and some azithromycin-sensitive strains (MIC≤0.25 μg/ml) which were randomly selected as the control group were screened for mutations in 23S rRNA, mtrR and erm genes and genotyped by using N.gonorrhoeae multi-antigen sequence typing (NG-MAST).Results A total of 788 N.gonorrhoeae strains were collected, 148 (18.8%) of which were AZM-R strains (MIC≥1 μg/ml).Eighteen out of 21 high-level AZM-R (AZM-HLR) strains had A2143G mutations in the four copies of the 23S rRNA gene.Twelve out of 29 middle-level AZM-R (AZ-MLR) strains had missense mutations, among which C2611T mutations in the four copies of the 23S rRNA were detected in 10 strains.Incidence of G45D/Y105H mutation in AZM-HLR strains was higher than that in AZM-MLR (χ2=12.702, P=0.000) or AZ-S (χ2=4.462, P=0.035) strains according to the analysis of the promoter and coding region of mtrR gene.PCR analysis revealed that only one strain carried ermB gene (MIC=2 μg/ml).The 788 N.gonorrhoeae strains were typed into 81 sequence types (STs) by NG-MAST, most of which were represented by one strain only.STs of ST3356 and ST1866 that were identified in the AZ-R strains in the current study had been noted in a previous report of emerging AZM-R N.gonorrhoeae strains in Nanjing, Chongqing and Guangzhou.Neighbor-joining (NJ) phylogenetic tree showed that the resistant strains did not form a separate cluster.Conclusion Currently, it is not suitable to use azithromycin as a monotherapy for gonorrhea in Shenzhen.Mutations of A2059G and C2611T in 23S rRNA of N.gonorrhoeae were respectively responsible for high-level and middle-level resistance to azithromycin.Repeated emergence of ST1866 and ST3356 will help us monitor and analyze the epidemiological characteristics of N.gonorrhoeae strains resistant to azithromycin in Shenzhen.

AIM: To establish the quality standard of Agui Yangxue Tablets (Radix Angelicae sinensis, Radix Codonopsis, Rhizoma Atractylodis macrocephalae, etc.) METHODS: Radix Astragali, Radix et Rhizoma Glycyrrhizae and Radix Rehmanniae praeparata were identified by TLC. The content of ferulic acid and paeoniflorin was determined by HPLC. The HPLC condition of ferulic acid was as follows: column was Diamonsil~ TM C_ 18 (4.6 mm?200 mm,5 ?m), the mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile -0.085% phosphoric acid (22 ∶ 78), the UV detection wavelength was at 322 nm, the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min with column temperature at 35 ?C . The HPLC condition of paeoniflorin was as follows: column was Diamonsil~ TM C_ 18 (4.6 mm?200 mm,5 ?m), the mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile -0.1% phosphoric acid (15 ∶ 85), the UV detection wavelength was at 229 nm, the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min with column temperature at 25 ?C . RESULTS: The developed TLC spots were quite clear. The calibration curve of ferulic acid was linear with 0.012 9-0.154 8 ?g(r=0.999 7). The average recovery was 99.32% with RSD of 1.74% (n=9). The calibration curve of paeoniflorin was linear with 0.106 8-1.602 0 ?g(r= 0.999 9). The average recovery was 98.68% with RSD of 0.98 (n=9). CONCLUSION: The established TLC and HPLC methods are exclusive, reproducible and suitable for the quality control of Agui Yangxue Tables.

Objective To analyze the relationship of penA, ponA, porB and mtrR gene mutations with the reduced sensitivity to ceftriaxone in N.gonorrhoeae isolates from Shenzhen city.Methods A total of 296 clinical isolates of N.gonorrhoeae were collected in Shenzhen city from 2009 to 2011.The agar dilution method was used to estimate the sensitivity of these N.gonorrhoeae to ceftriaxone.Totally, 53 strains with reduced sensitivity to ceftriaxone (minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC): 0.06-0.50 μg/ml) were identified, and 53 strains with high sensitivity to ceftriaxone were randomly selected from the remaining strains and served as the control group.PCR was performed to amplify the penA, ponA,porB and mtrR genes from the 106 isolates followed DNA sequencing.Results The mosaic structure of the penicillinbinding protein 2 (PBP2) gene (penA gene) was found in only one isolate with a ceftriaxone MIC of 0.125 0 μg/ml.Amino acid sequence analysis of the remaining 105 isolates yielded 16 different amino acid patterns.The MICs of ceftriaxone were relatively high (0.062 5 μg/ml) in N.gonorrhoeae strains harboring the amino acid patterns ⅩⅢ, ⅩⅧ or ⅩⅩⅩⅧ,but relatively low (0.008 0 μg/ml) in those harboring the amino acid pattern Ⅱ.No significant differences were observed in the frequency of mtrR, porB or ponA gene mutations between N.gonorrhoeae isolates with reduced sensitivity to ceftriaxone and those with high sensitivity (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The mosaic structure of PBP2 may be not the primary reason for reduced sensitivity of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to ceftriaxone in Shenzhen, while different amino acid patterns produced by various mutations in amino acid residues at positions 500-580 in the non-mosaic PBP2, together with mtrR, porB and ponA mutations, may play more important roles in the reduced sensitivity.
