Chinese Journal of Nosocomiology 2006;0(07):-
OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria from lower respiratory tract infection in elderly patients.METHODS A total of 1739 strains of bacteria isolated from sputum and lower respiration secretion culture of the elderly patients were identified and their drug resistance was tested by K-B method.RESULTS From 1739 strains of pathogens isolated,Gram-negative bacilli accounted for 63.8%.The main Gram-negative bacilli were Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Acinetobacter baumannii,Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella pneumoniae.Gram-positive cocci accounted for 22.9% and Candida albicans accounted for 13.3%,respectively.The resistance rates of Gram-negative bailli to imipenem,cefoperazone/sulbactam and amikacine were relatively low.And all Gram-positive cocci were sensitive to vancomycin.CONCLUSIONS The antimicrobial resistance of pathogens in elderly patients with lower respiratory tract infection is serious.It is important to mornitor the antimicrobial resistance.

Two regression models, based on panel data over the period of 2000-2011, are built and used to analyze what factors determine China's exports of primary and semi-finished products of traditional Chinese medicine to ASEAN. The results indicate that, China GDP, the ratio of ASEAN to China GDP per capita, average export price, the ratio of state-owned assets to total assets, have a significant positive influence on the export volumes of primary products of Chinese medicine. At the same time, RMB appreciation, the ratio of three kinds of foreign-invested assets to total assets, China-ASEAN Early Harvest Program, ASEAN-China Free Trade Area have a significant negative influence. In respect of the export volumes of semi-finished products of Chinese medicine, the significant influential factors are ASEAN GDP and the ratio of ASEAN to China GDP per capita. The former is positive and the latter is negative. In order to optimize the commodity composition of experts, it is needed to increase export volumes of both primary and semi-finished products of Chinese medicine. According to the analysis above, some proposals are put forward, such as, improving the performance of foreign capital, playing an exemplary and leading role in technological innovation by state-owned enterprises, taking advantage of bargaining power of suppliers, increasing outward foreign direct investment.

BACKGROUND:Non-heart beating donors have become the most promising source of donor in recent years. Tofurther improve donor preservation solution, on the basis of conventional storage solution hypertonic citrate adenine solution, artificial cordyceps was added to prepare artificial cordyceps compound solution. It is hoped to reduce donor injury and to elevate donor quality by antioxidation. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the preservation effect of artificial cordyceps compound solution on isolated renal from non-heart-beating rats. METHODS: Medulas of 39 Sprague-Dawley rats were injured. Withoutin vitro respiratory and circulatory supports, non-heart-beating models were established and randomly divided into three groups: artificial cordyceps compound group (n=15), hypertonic citrate adenine solution group (n=15) and physiological saline group (n=9). The kidneys of rats in different groups were stored in artificial cordyceps compound solution, hypertonic citrate adenine solution and physiological saline at 4℃. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the hypertonic citrate adenine solution group, after 6 and 12 hours of preservation, morphological injury was mild, apoptotic index, malondialdehyde, Bax and Caspase-3 expression levels decreased, superoxide dismutase activity and Bcl-2 expression increased; after 24 hours, the degree of injury was similar, malondialdehyde content decreased, and superoxide dismutase activity increased in the artificial cordyceps compound group. These findings indicated that the preservation effect of artificial cordyceps compound on antioxidation and inhibition of apoptosis was better than that of hypertonic citrate adenine solution in non-hearting beating rats.

A retrospective analysis was carried out in 36 patients with blunt diaphragmatic rupture during March 1991 and March 2006. Twenty-two diagnoses were confirmed preoperatively, and the rest 14were confirmed perioperatively. Three patients underwent surgical treatment after no response to conservative therapy. Thoracotomy was performed in 21 patients, laparotomy in 9, thoracotomy plus laparotomy in 5 and combined thoraco-laparotomy in 1. Most diaphragmatic rupture may be caused by blunt collision and could lead to thoracoabdominal injury. In spite of high mortality rate, the condition is usually under diagnosed. Definite diagnosis and timely operation are important to increase survival rate and reduce mortality.

Objective: Our aims were to measure DNA content in primary lung cancer and to study the relationship between the DNA content and TNM stage, histological differentiation of tumor cell, cellular proliferation, and apoptosis. Methods: The DNA content and cellular proliferation were analyzed using flow cytometry. Tumor cell apoptosis was detected by using TUNEL method. Results: (1) The DNA index (DI) distribution ranged from 0.829 to 2.514. There were 41 cases (77.4%) of DNA aneuploid. The distribution of DI and DNA aneuploid was independent of histological subtypes(P>0.05).(2) With the increase of TNM stage, the DI and the rate of DNA aneuploid increased(P<0.05).(3) There was relationship between DI and histological differentiation of tumor cell. The DI was higher in tumors of poor differentiation than those in tumors of moderate and good differentiation(P<0.05 and P<0.01). (4) The cellular proliferation index of aneuploid tumors was significantly higher than that of diploid tumors(P<0.01), while apoptosis index of aneuploid tumors was significantly lower than that of diploid tumors (P<0.01). Conclusion: Correlations exist between DNA content and TNM stage, hiological differentiation, cellular proliferation, and apoptosis.

This article explained that the evidence grading system occupied an important position in the evidence-based clinical practice guidelines. Through the comparative analysis on characteristics of clinical evidences between traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and modern medicine, different possible establishment ideas of evidence grading system in TCM evidence-based clinical practice guidelines were proposed . The design for evidence grading standard of Chinese medical literature which reflected the academic characteristics of TCM was suggested.

Objective To study the effect of oleic acid on the morphology of cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) and on the secretive function of endothelial cell mediated by insulin or leptin. Methods The cell morphological characteristics were studied by phase microscopic observation. The changes of endothelial cell secretive function were studied by detecting the concentrations of nitric oxide (NO) and endothelin (ET-1) after endothelial cell was pretreated with oleic acid of different concentrations. Results With the increased concentration of stimulating insulin, the concentration of NO increased and ET-1 decreased gradually in a dose-dependent fashion. The profile of endothelial cell pretreated with oleic acid became darker than before. As the concentration of pretreatment oleic acid increased, the concentration of NO secreted by endothelial cell which was mediated by insulin and leptin gradually decreased in a dose-dependent fashion, but the concentration of ET-1 secreted by endothelial cell mediated by leptin decreased significantly only in the 50~100 ?mol?L -1 of pretreatment oleic acid. Conclusion Oleic acid damages endothelial cell directly and inhibits endothelial cell mediated by insulin and leptin to secrete NO. Oleic acid and insulin can directly inhibit release of ET-1 by cultured endothelial cell.
