OBJECTIVE To retrospectively analyze the results of the composition and drug resistance of urinary pathogens isolated from geriatric inpatients from 2003 to 2005.METHODS The identification and antibacterial drug sensitivity test of urinary pathogens was carried out by VITEK AMS-60.RESULTS Urinary tract infections of geriatric inpatients were still mostly caused by Gram-negative bacilli(72.9%),others as Gram-positive cocci(14.3%) and fungi(12.8%).The majority of Gram-negative bacilli was Escherichia coli(46.6%) and the majority of fungi was Candida albicans(7.9%),as for Grampositive cocci,were Enterococcus faecalis(5.3%) and coagulase negative Staphylococcus(4.9%).Drug resistance rate of common antibiotic against the majority of urinary pathogens showed an ascending trend.CONCLUSIONS E.coli is still the primary urinary pathogen among geriatric inpatients,but the isolation of fungi and multi-drug-resistant bacteria is on the rise.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of cinepazide maleate combined with venlafaxine on post-stroke depression.Methods60 stroke patients with post-stroke depression were divided into control group (n=30) and observation group (n=30). On the basis treatment, the control group was given venlafaxine, the observation group was given venlafaxine and maleate cinepazide injection. The course was 4 weeks. The two groups were assessed with Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD) and modified Barthel Index(MBI) before and after treatment.ResultsThe observation group improved better than the control group (P<0 05) even in HAMD and MBI 4 weeks after treatment(P<0.01).ConclusionCinepazide maleate combined with venlafaxine may be more effective on post-stroke depression to improve depressive symptoms, and the activities of daily living.

To explore the incidence and risk factors for spontaneous hemorrhagic transformation (HT) of cardioembolism (CE,n =150) and large artery atherosclerotic infarction (LAA,n =370).The incidence of HT was 29.3% in CE.And it was significantly higher than 9.7% (P <0.05).Infarct size,low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score were independent predictors of spontaneous hemorrhagic transformation in LAA.OR values were 3.92,2.96 and 1.45 respectively.Infarct size,admission NIHSS score and random blood glucose level were independent predictors of spontaneous hemorrhagic transformation in CE.OR values were 4.86,2.42 and 1.42 respectively.As compared with LAA,CE was more prone to HT.LAA and CE-related factors of hemorrhagic transformation are not completely identical.
