Chinese Journal of Analytical Chemistry 2001;29(6):699-702
Capillary gas chromatographic column 1 (7.5% W/W,3 5×0. 35mm i.d.) and column 2 (9.2% W/W,35×0.30mm i.d.) using butylammonium 4-to unesulfonate as stationary phase were prepared by the method of dynamic coating with mercury plug, and the solvent used was mixture of acetone and methanol (2 ∶1 V/V). The results showed that the column had good chromatograpic pro perties, especially to strong polar compound, such as carboxylic acids and acoho ls could be separated well.
2.The characteristics of nosocomial infection in inpatients over the age of 75 years
Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2009;28(10):870-872
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of nosocomial infections in senile inpatients(≥75 years old) and to propose the control strategy according to the analysis. Methods A total of 2675 senile inpatients(≥75 years old) from 2007 to 2008 were prospectively evaluated and retrospectively reviewed. The infection incidence rate, infection fatality rate, average length of stay in hospitals, location of infections, main pathogenic bacteria and common protopathy were analyzed. Results Among 2675 senile inpatients, 222 senile inpatients suffered from nosocomial infection. Among all age groups in this hospital during the same period, the infection incidence rate and the infection fatality rate were higher in the senile group than in the general group(8.3% vs. 1.9%, 0.8% vs. 0.1%,both P<0.01). The average length of stay in our hospital was 54.0 days. The lower respiratory tract infections were most common, and the urinary system infections, and the blood infections. Gram-negative bacteria was the major source of nosocomial infection(47.0%, 110/234), while infection rate of Gram-positive bacteria was 32.9% (77/234) and fungus was 20.1% (47/234). The cerebral vascular disease was the most common protopathy, then malignant tumor was in 45 cases (20.3%), kidney disease was in 31 cases(14.0%), cardiac disease was in 29 cases(13.1%) and respiratory disease was in 21 cases(9.5%). Conclusions There are higher infection incidence rate, higher infection fatality rates,longer length of stay in hospitals in senile inpatients(≥75 years old). The lower respiratory tract infections were most common and Gram-negative bacteria was the major source of nosocomial infection. We should adopt active management to control the nosocomial infections.

Chinese Journal of Nosocomiology 2005;0(11):-
OBJECTIVE To provide more evidence for hospital infection control.METHODS To(analyze) the clinical records of the hospital-acquired pneumonia(HAP) of senile patients in department of(neurology) during Jan 2004 to Dec 2005 retrospectively.RESULTS There were 109 person-times(145 cases) senile(patients) with hospital(infection) during the two years.From them 77 cases were hospital-acquired infection,32 cases were ventilator-(associated) pneumonia(VAP),the infection rate was 22.1%.CONCLUSIONS The infection of HAP in department of neurology may induce by several factors.The key point to control HAP is prospective monitoring hospital(infection) in time,and taking effective measures to prevent the hospital infection on the basis of treatment the(underlying) disease.

Objective To evaluate the influence of SP600125,a selective c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor,on the levels of serum total bile salt (TBA) and Bsep,Ntcp expression in the hepatic tissue of rats with ethinylestradiol induced intrahepatic cholestasis.Methods Rats pregnant for 15days were administered the subcutaneous injection of 17- b -estradiol propylene ( EE ) to modulate the ICP animal models,and be SP600125 to intervene.Testing the level of serum TBA and the expression of c-Jun,Bsep,Ntcp in the hepalatic tissue.Results The average gray values of c-Jun in the group of ICP models were significantly lower than the normal control group ( 101.05 ± 5.20 vs 118.99 ± 5.95,P < 0.05 ).After the intervention of SP600125,comparing with the group of ICP models,the expression of Bsep,Ntcp in the group of SP600125 intervention were significantly higher,and this change in the high dose of SP600125 intervention group was more obvious ( low dose intervention group Bsep:0.452 ±0.031 vs 0.291 ±0.043,Ntcp:0.462 ± 0.015 vs 0.285 ± 0.021,P < 0.05 ; high dose intervention group Bsep:0.568 ± 0.038 vs 0.291 ±0.043,Ntcp:0.605±0.020 vs 0.285 ±0.021,P <0.05),while the level of TBA in the serum was significantly lower.Conclusions Treatment with SP600125 can down-regulate the level of c-Jun/AP-1,and it may participate in the lower expression of Bsep、Ntcp in the ICP rats which were induced by 17-bestradiol.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Chinese botulinum toxin A(CBTX-A)injection in the treatment of motor tics in patients with tic disorder.Methods Twenty-five patients(20 male,5 female)were treated with CBTX-A in the sites of their most problematic motor tics.Before treatment the data of Yale Global Tic Severityb Scale(YGTSS)was collected.All patients were assessed at least 3 times after 1 week,4 weeks and within 12-month period.At each visit the following data were collected:YGTSS,Jankovic clinical rating scale,time to response,duration of response,global impression of changes by patients,presence of premonitory sensory tic component and side effects.Results Total number of treatment sessions was 29.The mean response time was 5.0 days.The mean duration of response was 4.6 months.The mean peak effect response in Jankovic clinical rating scale was 3.4.Based on YGTSS,62.1% (18/29)was rated as marked improvement,34.5%(10/29)as moderate improvement and only 3.4% (1/29)as no effect.85.7%(18/21)patients had less premonitory sensation symptoms(mean benefit 72.4%(20%-100%)).Weakness in the site of injection and rash were the main side effect. Conclusion CBTX-A is an effective and safe treatment for motor tics associated with tic disorder.

Objective To investigate the role of underlying diseases in predicting the length of stay for observation in emergency department of internal medicine by the Charlson weighted index of comorbidities (WIC).Methods A single-center retrospective analysis of clinical data of 2 836 patients admitted in emergency observation room of the Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from January 1 to June 30 in 2013 was carried out.The patients were divided into two groups according to the length of observation time:Group A (time of observation ≥72 h,n =1908) and Group B (time of observation < 72 h,n =928).The data of the length of observation time were recorded,and the WIC and the APACHE Ⅱ score were calculated.Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent predictors for 72-hour observation.Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the value of WIC in predicting 72-hour observation.Results Of 2836 patients,1176 (41.5%) suffered from respiratory disease,709 (25.0%) had cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases,423 (14.9%) were contracted digestive system disease,251 (8.8%) had renal and endocrinology system diseases and 277 (9.8%) had diseases arisen from physicochemical factor and miscellaneous causes.Compared with patients in Group B,the average age,the number of elderly patients residing in apartment exclusively for elderly,the WIC and the APACHE Ⅱ score were higher in patients in Group A.The one-variable and multi-variable Logistic regression analyses showed that age,the WIC score,the APACHE Ⅱ score and residing in apartment for elderly people were related with 72-hour observation in emergency observation room.The area under the ROC curve in predicting 72-hour observation was 0.701 for the WIC score,0.788 for APACHE Ⅱ score and 0.853 for their combination.Conclusions The WIC scoring system can be a good predicting method for 72-hour observation in patients in emergency observation room.
