Objective To understand the pathogenic bacteria distribution and drug resistance in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD). Methods The retrospective analysis was per-formed in the sputum culturs and drug resistance results of 740 patients with AECOPD. Results The positive rate of bacterial infection was 39. 1%. Among them, gram-negative bacteria were 196 strains (62. 4%), gram-positive bacteria 21 strains (6. 7%), and fungi 97 strains(30. 9%). The main kinds of gram-negative bacteria were Pseud-omonas aeruginasa, Acinetobacter baumannii,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and Escherichia-coli. Staphylococcus haemolyticus, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus were the most frequent gram-positive bacteria. The major fungi was Candida albicans. Gram-negative bacteria showed high resistance to the third-generation cephalosporins,penicillins, moderate resistance to aminoglycosides,low resistance to imipenem. Gram-positive bacteria were resistant to many kinds of antibiotics, but they were responsive to linezolid and vancomycin. Fungi showed high sensitivity to antifungal agents. Conclusion The pathogens of AECOPD mainly are gram-nega-tive bacteria with a high drug resistance rate. To monitor pathogenic bacteria is conducive to master the pathogens distribution, drug resistance and provide the basis of rational use of antibiotics,which can slow down the emergence and spread of resistant bacteria.

Microcirculation disturbance and ischemia of the pancreas are important pathophysiological changes in the onset of acute pancrea-titis,and organ hypoperfusion is a risk factor for poor prognosis.During the first 12 to 24 hours after admission,fluid resuscitation is the most important medical treatment for the early stage of acute pancreatitis,and timely and rational fluid infusion helps to improve prognosis. However,there lacks high -quality clinical evidence for type of fluid,infusion speed,and monitoring methods,and more randomized con-trolled trials are needed.

AIM:To explore the effect of gypenosides ( GPs) on PCSK9 gene expression in hyperlipidemic rat liver and the blood lipids lowered by simvastatin .METHODS: Healthy male SD rats ( n=60 ) were randomized into 5 groups:normal control group , hyperlipidemic model group , simvastatin group , GPs group and GPs combined with simvasta-tin group ( combined group ) .The rats in all groups were fed high-fat diet except normal control group which were fed with ordinary diet.The rats in control group and hyperlipidemic model group were gavaged with 0.3%CMC-Na every day.The rats in GPs group were gavaged with GPs at 160 mg? kg-1? d-1 .The rats in simvastatin group were gavaged with simvas-tatin at 5 mg? kg-1? d-1 .The rats in combined group were gavaged with GPs and simvastatin .The experiment lasted for 8 weeks.The rats were anesthetized with chloral hydrate , and abdominal arterial blood samples were collected to detect the total cholesterol ( TC) , triglyceride ( TG) , low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cho-lesterol ( HDL-C) .The body weight and the wet weight of the livers were measured , and the liver index was calculated . The pathological changes of the livers were observed under microscope with HE staining .The expression of PCSK9 and low-density lipoprotein receptor ( LDLR) at mRNA and protein levels was determined by real-time PCR and Western blot .RE-SULTS:The model of hyperlipidemia rats was established successfully .Compared with model group , the levels of TC , TG and LDL-C in simvastatin group, GPs group and combined group were obviously decreased (P<0.05), and the HDL-C levels were obviously upregulated (P<0.05).Compared with model group, the liver indexes in simvastatin group, GPs group and combined group were obviously decreased (P<0.05).The pathological changes of the liver tissues showed that hepatic adipose appeared in model group , and that in simvastatin group and GPs group had different degrees of relief , espe-cially in combined group .Compared with model group , the mRNA expression levels of PCSK 9 and LDLR in simvastatin group were obviously increased , while the mRNA expression levels of PCSK 9 in GPs group and combined group were obvi-ously decreased (P<0.05), and the mRNA expression of LDLR in combined group was obviously increased (P<0.05). Compared with model group , the protein expression of PCSK 9 and LDLR in simvastatin group was obviously increased , while the protein expression levels of PCSK 9 in GPs group and combined group were obviously reduced , and the LDLR pro-tein levels were obviously increased (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Gypenosides inhibit the expression of PCSK9 and in-crease the expression of LDLR in the liver .The combination of gypenosides and simvastatin promotes the lipid-lowering effect of simvastatin and attenuates hepatic steatosis , which may be related to inhibiting the expression of PCSK 9 in the liv-er.

Objective To investigate the effects of compound danshen dripping pill (CDDP) on carotid intima￣media thickness (CIMT) and cardiac function in patients newly diagnosed as hypothyroidism. Methods The total of 40 subclinical hypothyroidism patients and 40 hypothyroidism cases was enrolled.The clinical hypothyroidism patients were treated with L￣T4 as the conventional treatment, and comprehensive CDDP plus levothyroxine (L￣T4 ) as treated groups (CDDP group) for 6 months. The therapeutic effect was evaluated by combining with data of thyroid function, blood lipid profile and ultrasound.The 40 healthy subjects were chosen as normal control group. Results Compared with normal control group, the levels of TC and LDL￣C were higher (P<0.05) in subclinical hypothyroidism group, which were more obvious in the clinical hypothyroidism group (P<0.01), CIMT increased markedly (P<0.05), the left ventricular systolic functions (ejection fraction) and diastolic functions (mitral flow velocity E and A wave ratio) were markedly decreased (P<0.05) in the clinical hypothyroidism group.Upon treatment, the blood￣lipids were improved (P<0.05), CIMT were reduced (P<0.05), the left ventricular functions were restored to near normal with the attainment of euthyroidism in both groups of clinical hypothyroidism;the reduction of CIMT and the improvement of the left ventricular functions were faster in CDDP group than that in the conventional treatment group (P<0.05). Conclusion Disturbance of blood lipid in hypothyroidism patients, CIMT growth and impaired left ventricular function objectively indicate the existence of cardiac and cerebral vascular risk, while CDDP helps improving lipid metabolism, reversing CIMT and cardiac function, reducing cardiovascular risk, blocking or delaying cardiovascular event chains.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine metabolic disorder of reproductive age women,often accompanied by obesity,hyperandrogenism,hyperinsulinemia,insulin resistance (IR),and other metabolic syndrome (MS).Oxidative stress (OS) is considered as a potential inducing factor in the pathogenesis of PCOS at present.Glucagon-like peptide-1 (glp-1) receptor agonist and analogues as new therapeutic agents in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM),can lose weight,improve IR,resist OS and reduce the expression of inflammatory cytokines,thus they have been widely used in the clinical application of patients with PCOS.The author reviews the latest advances of glucagon-like peptide-1 on polycystic ovary syndrome.
