Objective To determine plasma resistin level in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and evaluate its correlations with outcome and inflammatory reaction. Methods Fiftyfour patients with moderate TBI, 71 patients with severe TBI and 40 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. Plasma samples were obtained from the healthy controls on physical examination and from the TBI patients on admission. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA) was used to determine the plasma resistin concentrations. Results Twenty patients (37.0% ) and 53 patients (74.6% ) with moderate and severe TBI suffered from an unfavorable outcome (defined as GOS score for 1-3 points) three months after TBI respectively. Plasma resistin levels in the patients with moderate and severe TBI were substantially higher than that in the healthy controls ((21. 9 ± 8. 4) ng/ml and (29. 2 ± 9. 6) ng/ml vs (9. 3 ± 2.6) ng/ml, both P ＜0. 01] by using covariance analysis. By using the multivariate linear regression analysis, plasma C-reactive protein level (t =2.212,P =0.035; t =2. 274,P =0. 014) and GCS scores (t =3. 120,P =0.007; t=3.986,P=0.003) were associated with the plasma resistin levels. Logistic regression analysis selected plasma resistin level as an independent predictor for 3-month unfavorable outcome of the patients with moderate and severe TBI (odds ratio = 1. 124, 95% CI = 1. 040-1. 221, P = 0.011; odds ratio = 1. 145, 95% CI = 1. 044-1. 232, P = 0. 009). A receiver operating characteristic curve identified cutoff levels of plasma resistin (22.4 ng/ml and 30.5 ng/ml) that predicted 3-month unfavorable outcome of moderate and severe TBI patients with the high sensitivity (70. 0% and 79. 2% ) and specificity (70.6% and 72.2% ) ( area under curve = 0.719, 95% CI = 0.642-0.829, P = 0.000;area under curve =0.735, 95% CI =0. 671-0. 893, P = 0.000). Conclusions Plasma resistin level is increased after TBI and may be involved in inflammatory response of brain injury. Clinical detection of this indicator can help early determine the prognosis of the TBI patients.

Objective To explore the value of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)of MRI diffusion-weighted (DW)in diag-nosing pathologic stage and histologic grade of bladder cancer.Methods 42 patients with confirmed bladder cancer underwent pelvic MRI examination including T2 WI and diffusion-weighted imaging (b values of 0 and 1 000 s/mm2 )Based on pathologic results,42 cases of bladder cancer were divided into three groups of Ta-T1 stage (non-muscle invasive),T2 stage (muscle invasive)and T3-T4 stage (around the bladder and other organizations invasive).Of 42 bladder cancers,36 urothelial carcinomas were divided into papillary urothelial neoplasm with low malignant potential (PUNLMP),low grade urothelial carcinoma and high grade urothelial carcinoma group.Tumor diameter and ADC were measured on DW imaging,and compared among different groups.Results The mean size of high grade tumors (4.52 ± 1.61)cm was significantly larger than that of PUNLMP (2.28 ± 0.51)cm and low grade tumors (1.69 ± 0.53)cm.The mean ADC of high grade tumors (0.83 ± 0.27)×10-3 mm2/s was significantly lower than that of PUNLMP (1.46 ± 0.30)×10-3 mm2/s and low grade tumors (1.17±0.11)×10-3 mm2/s (P<0.01).T3-T4 stage tumors showed significantly lower ADC (0.82±0.21)×10-3 mm2/s than T2 (1.01 ± 0.09)×10 -3 mm2/s and Ta-T1 stage tumors (1.24 ± 0.13)×10 -3 mm2/s (P <0.01).Conclusion DW ima-ging combined with conventional MR sequences is useful for displaying morphology of bladder cancer.DW imaging and ADC are use-ful in evaluation of pathologic stage and histologic grade of bladder cancer.

Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of bacteria in 1 -6 months infants with lower respiratory infection(LRI).Methods Induced sputum was extracted from 326 infants with LRI who were 1 -6 months.Antibiotic susceptibility tests were performed after bacteria had been identified.Results 61 cases were detected pathogenic bacteria and the detection rate of bacteria was 18.71%.5 cases were detected two kinds of bacte-ria.66 bacterial strains were isolated among which gram -positive bacteria(33 strains)accounted for 50.00% and gram -negative bacteria(33 strains)accounted for 50.00%.Staphylococcus aureus was the most common gram -pos-itive bacteria and Streptococcus pneumoniae was the second.13 strains were methicillin -resistant Staphylococcus au-reus(MRSA).Hemophilus influenzae was the most common gram -negative bacteria,followed by Klebsiella pneumo-nia and Escherichia coli among which ESBL positive Klebsiella pneumonia were 5 cases and ESBL positive Escherich-ia coli were 4 cases.The common gram -positive bacteria had higher rate of penicillin resistance.MRSA had higher rate of penicillin,oxacillin,erythomycin and clindamycin resistance.Resistant strains to vancomycin and rina thiazole amine were not found.The common gram -negative bacteria had higher rate of ampicillin,ampicillin/shu tan,cefazo-lin and ceftriaxone resistance and had lower rate of cefepime,ceftazidime,piperacillin/he azole temple and imipenem resistance.Conclusion The common pathogenic bacteria in 1 -6 months infants with lower respiratory infection were Staphylococcus aureus,Hemophilus influenzae,Streptococcus pneumoniae,Klebsiella pneumonia and Escherichia coli. We should pay attention to the common antibiotic resistance.MRSA and ESBL positive bacteria were the common mul-tiple drug resistant bacterias.Reasonable selection of antibiotics should be based on susceptibility results earlier.
