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.

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 investigate the action of inorganic arsenic in the induction of DNA strand breaks in primary cultured human skin fibroblasts. Methods Sodium arsenate and sodium arsenite were used as test inorganic arsenics. DNA strand breaks were assessed by single cell gel electrophoresis assay (SCGE). Results Arsenate at 1～10 ?mol/L dose_dependently induced DNA strand breaks in cells. Arsenate at lower concentrations induced mainly degree I DNA strand breaks, while the proportion of cells with degree Ⅱ DNA strand breaks increased to 50% when treated with 10?mol/L arsenate,but no cells with degree ⅢDNA strand breaks were observed.Cells treated with 1?mol/L arsenite showed no significant increase in DNA strand breaks. At the concentration of 10?mol/L, however, arsenite induced DNA strand breaks with different degrees, and the apoptotic type DNA strand breaks were the major type. Conclusion Sodium arsenate mainly induced general type DNA strand breaks and sodium arsenite induced apoptotic type,beside general type of DNA strand breaks in primary cultured human skin fibroblasts. This could be explained by their different reaction modes with DNA, and further studies were needed.
