Objective To investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance patterns of uropathogens in children with complicated urinary tract infection to guide the empirical antimicrobial treatment.Methods Retrospective analysis of isolated bacteria from 141 children hospitalized with complicated urinary tract infection was performed from January 2011 to January 2013.Results Gram-negative bacillus were the main pathogens [56.6%(81/143)],and Escherichia coli was the leading cause (41.3%,59/143).Gram-positive bacillus accounted for 38.5% (55/143),including Enterococcus faecium (17.5%,25/143) and Enterococcus faecalis (14.7%,21/143).Fungi caused 4.9% (7/143) of the infections.The resistance of Escherichia coli to amoxicillin was the highest [92.0% (23/25)] and resistance to imipenem (4.3%,2/47),amikacin (6.8%,4/59) and nitrofurantoin (6.8%,4/59) was lower.It was observed resistance of Enterococcus faecium to linezolid,quinupristin,vancomycin and nitrofurantoin was significantly lower than other common antibiotics.The resistance of Enterococcus faecalis to quinupristin,tetracycline,erythromycin,rifampicin was significantly higher than other common antibiotics.Concluusions Escherichia coli,Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis are the common uropathogens.These pathogens have a high antibiotic resistance to many common antibiotics.The selection of empirical treatment of children with complicated urinary tract infection should be adjusted by antimicrobial susceptibility test.

Objective To investigate the methylation status of E-cadherin(E-cad)and its protein expression in human small bowel adenocarcinomas(SBAC),and the association of these findings with clinico-pathological characteristics.Methods E-cad gene hypermethylation and its protein expression in 36 patients with primary SBAC and the paired adjacent tissues were tested by methylation-specific PCR(MSP)assay and immunohistochemistry(IHC)respectively.Data associated with clinico-pathological characteristics was analyzed.Results The hypermethylation frequency of E-cad was 38.9% in cancerous tissues and 8.3% in adjacent tissues(P<0.01).The positive rate of E-cad expression was 41.7% in cancerous tissues and 97.2% in adjacent tissues(P<0.01).Twelve out of 21 cases without protein expression revealed methylated(P<0.01).Methylation status was closely related to E-cad protein expression in SBAC.The hypermethylation of E-cad gene and the expression Of E-cad protein were significantly correlated with the depth of invasion,the differentiation and lymph node metastasis(P<0.05),but were not correlated with other clinico-pathologic parameters such as age,sex,tumor size or location(P>0.05).Conclusions The hypermethylation of E-cad gene can down regulate the protein expression,which closely related to the depth of invasion,the differentiation and lymph node metastasis.

To evaluate the clinical value of quantitative tissue velocity imaging (QTVI) in estimation of LV regional diastolic function in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The moving peak tissue velocity of LV wall in long axis direction during isovolumic relaxation (V IR ), early diastole (V E), atrial contraction (V A), and V E/V A ratio were measured and calculated by QTVI in 30 patients suffering from CAD and 40 healthy individuals. The results of QTVI were also compared with mitral valve peak flow velocities during early diastole (E), atrial contraction (A), and E/A ratio. In patients with CAD, V E was significantly lower than of nomal subjects( P

Objective:To investigate the effect of thermal conductivity on the apical sealing ability of different dental gutta-percha cones during the warm vertical condensation obturation.Methods:Four kinds of dental gutta-percha cones were used in this study:Bio-GP points (BP,B&L,Korea),large-tapered gutta-percha (DP,DENTSPLY,America),PROTAPER Universal gutta-percha points (DPP,DENTSPLY,America) and mtwo gutta-percha points (VP,VDW,Germany).Volume differences method was used to determine the main components and the thermal conductivity determinator was used to measure the thermal conductivity of these dental gutta-percha cones.Furthermore,20 cones randomly selected from each kind of dental gutta-percha cones.And 10 cones of each dental gutta-percha cones,which were cut out the part of 4 mm in length from the apical end,were heated (200 ℃) from the upper end without compression,and the temperature of the gutta perchacones surface was monitored in time by the infrared thermal imager during the whole heating process.In addition,the rest of the 10 cones of each dental gutta-percha cones were used to obturate the root canal in the transparent root canal resin model using warm vertical condensation technique.The cross-sectional surface was observed by stereomicroscope (× 40) at 1 mm and 3 mm from the working length and the gutta-percha obturation area proportion was measured and analyzed.The data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA.Results:The proportion of inorganic fillers (80.90% ± 1.14 %) (P < 0.05) and the thermal conductivity (2.247 ± 0.002)of DP was siguificantly higher than BP (79.28% ± 3.88%,1.179 ± 0.003),DPP (68.46% 5.09%,0.604 ±0.001),VP (78.86% ± 1.87%,1.150 ±0.001) (P <0.05).During the thermal obturation without compression at the setting temperature (200 ℃),DP could achieve 65 ℃ beyond 1 mm from the heating point,and BP,DPP and VP only reached 65 ℃ within 1 mm.After warm vertical condensation obturation,all the groups showed increased gutta-percha obturation area proportion.At the position of WL-3,DP (96.89% ±0.03%) showed significantly higher proportion of gutta-percha obturation area than BP (95.47% ±0.06%),DPP (95.21% ±0.03%) and VP (95.15% ±0.03%) (P < 0.05).Conclusion:DP contains more inorganic fillers,possesses higher thermal conductivity,and leads a better apical sealing ability than BP,DPP and VP at the position of WL-3 during warm vertical condensation obturation.

Objective To assess the reflectance confocal microscopic features of childhood lichen planus (LP),and to evaluate the performance of reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) in the diagnosis of childhood LP.Methods RCM was performed for imaging of lesions in 35 children with LP.Then,biopsies were carried out at the same sites followed by histopathological examination.A comparison was conducted between confocal microscopic and histopathological findings.All the 35 cases were diagnosed based on clinical manifestations and histopathological findings.Results RCM imaging of lesions in the 35 cases showed cellular edema forming lowly reflective areas in the epidermis,sharp transition between the granular and spinous layers,and infiltration of moderately reflective inflammatory cells,which corresponded to wedge-shaped thickening of the granular layer on pathological examination.The dermo-epidermal junction was unclear,and dermal papillary rings were obscure or absent with infiltration of inflammatory cells arranged in lamelliform structures around the dermo-epidermal junction,which corresponded to interface dermatitis on histopathological examination.A band-like infiltration of inflammatory cells,including big,highly reflective oval or stelliform pigmentophages and small,moderately reflective round lymphocytes,was observed in the dermis,and the thickness of infiltration was measurable.Dilated blood vessels were longitudinally distributed in the papillary dermis with perivascular infiltration of inflammatory cells and pigmentophages.RCM images were highly consistent with histopathological findings in these patients.Conclusion RCM,as a real-time non-invasive imaging technique,can serve as an auxiliary examination method for the diagnosis of childhood LP.
