OBJECTIVE To investigate the trends of the drug-resistance of Staphylococcus in our area and to provide reference basis for rational use of antibiotic.METHODS Referring to Nationwide Rules of Operation in Clinical Laboratory,identification of bacteria was operated.K-B method was used to test drug sensitivity.And the results of drug sensitivity were analyzed.RESULTS None vancomycin-resistant strains were detected in 482 strains of Staphylococcus;the sensitivity rates to amikacin and gentamicin were more than 50.0% and were relatively stable.The sensitivity rate to penicillin was 0 in 2002 and 16.2% in 2006,which showed a tendency towards going up.The sensitivity rate to rifampicin was 56.5% in 2002 and 16.2% in 2006,which showed a decreasing tendency.The sensitivity rates of other drugs were less than 50.0% but stable.CONCLUSIONS It′s better to refer to the results of drug resistance test when treating infection caused by Staphylococcus,and the first choice is vancomycin or amikacin if drug resistance results cannot acquired.

Objective To investigate the alteration of mast cell(MC)in elderly patients with reflux esophagitis(RE). Methods Twenty eight elderly and 15 non-elderly patients with RE were recruited.Lower esophageal mucosal mast cells and the percentage of degranulated mast cells were countered after immunohistochemieal staining.The ultrastrueture of mast cells was observed by eleetromieroscope. Results The number of mast cells in lower esophageal mucosa in elderly patients with RE was significantly more than that in non-elderly patients with RE(10.24±2.56 VS.5.07±0.18,P＜0.01),and the percentage of degranulated mast cells in lower esophageal mucosa was also significantly higher in elderly patients with RE than in non-elderly patients with RE[(24.7±4.6)%vs.(13.5±5.5)%,P＜0.01].The more severe the esophageal mucosallesions,the more the numberof mast cells. Under the electromicroscopy, more Golgi apparatus, mitochondria and endoplasm-reticulum were found in mast cells.Special secreting particles were also found in cytoplasm,more vacuole were left behind after mast cells degranulation in elderly patients with RE.Conclusions Increased numbers of mast cells and mast cell activation may be involved in the pathogenesis of elderly RE.

ObjectiveTo explore the association between angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene insertion/deletion(I/D) polymorphism and cerebral infarction among Chinese people. MethodsThe ACE gene polymorphism was determined by PCR-RFLP in 242 patients with cerebral infarction and 283 controls. Multiple logistic regression was performed to explore the risk factors for cerebral infarction. ResultsAfter adjusting age, gender, alcohol drinking, smoking, education,history of diabetes mellitus and the primary hypertension, there was no significant association between ACE I/D polymorphism and cerebral infarction, either was hypertension and diabetes mellitus. The primary hypertension significanlly increased risk of cerebral infarction (OR=7.28,P =0.000). Both ACE ID/DD genotype and the primary hypertension showed a significant gene-environment interaction(r=1.62,OR=7.29), something as super multiplicative type 2 interaction. ConclusionAlthough ACE gene polymorphism is not risk factors of cerebral infarction, but ID/DD genotype had shown significant gene-environment interaction with primary hypertension in occurrence of cerebral infarcion.

Objective:To observe the dynamic variation of serum ferritin (SF), folic acid, and vitamin B_(12) levels in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) at different disease stages. Methods:Serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels were successively tested in thirty-six patients with primary APL every 1 to 3 months by using chemiluminescence analysis. Five different disease stages were selected as dynamic observation time points: first diagnosed, first complete remission (CR1), six months after CR1, relapsed stage,and CR1 for three years. Results:There were 75.0%(27/36)of patients with abnormal high levels of SF, 77.8% (28/36)of patients with abnormal low levels of folic acid, and 100%(36/36)of patients with increased vitamin B_(12) levels in first diagnosed stage. The number of patients with abnormal variations of SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) level was decreased in CR1 stage compared with those in first diagnosed stage (SF: P<0.05;folic acid and vitamin B_(12): P<0.01). The serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels tended to recover step by step with chemotherapy. At six months after CR1 the three parameters of most patients recovered to normal levels. APL was relapsed in 4 patients after 1-year CR. Both SF and vitamin B_(12) levels were increased and the folic acid level was decreased compared with those before replase, but the difference had no significance (P>0.05). The serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels were in normal ranges in the patients who had 3-year CR. Conclusion:The serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels had dynamic variation in APL course. Increase in serum SF and vitamin B_(12) as well as decrease in folic acid are related with the active degree of APL and its tumor load.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of TCM Qingjie Huagong Decoction combined with routine internal medicine in the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis with cholelithiasis (bile duct stones) in the early stage.Methods:Thirty-two patients with severe acute pancreatitis combined with cholelithiasis in the first affiliated Hospital of GuangXi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were selected and randomly divided into two groups with 16 in each, both groups were treated for 14 days. Serum amylase (AMS) was detected by iodine-starch colorimetry, GOT and GPT were detected by continuous monitoring method, and CRP, IL-6 and procalcitonin (PCT) were detected by immune transmission turbidimetry. Acute Physiological and Chronic Health Score Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ), CT Severity Index Score (CTSI) and Modified Marshall Score were used to evaluate the severity of SAP. The recovery time of body temperature, the relief time of abdominal distension pain, the recovery time of bowel sounds and the total hospital stay were observed and recorded to evaluate the clinical effect.Results:The total effective rate was 93.8% (15/16) in the treatment group and 75.0% (12/16) in the control group. There was significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=8.19, P=0.042). After treatment, the level of AMS, WBC, CRP, PCT, AST, ALT and IL-6 in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group ( t values were 14.3, 7.24, 9.63, 5.48, 7.05, 7.33, 28.34, respectively, all Ps<0.05); After treatment, the time for body temperature to return to normal [(2.91±0.12)d vs. (3.78±0.38)d, t=8.76], the time for relief of abdominal distension pain [(4.77±0.68)d vs. (7.13±1.55)d, t=9.52], the time for recovery of bowel sounds [(3.90±1.80)d vs. (4.89±1.38)d, t=2.98] and the total hospital stay [(22.60±2.80)d vs. (30.37±3.89)d, t=7.88] in the treatment group were all significantly shorter than those in the control group ( P<0.01); APACHE Ⅱ, CTSI and the Modified Marshall Score in the treatment group were lower than those in the control group ( t values were 11.82, 12.72, 7.71, respectively, all Ps<0.01). Conclusion:Qingjie Huagong Decoction combined with ERCP and conventional western medicine therapy can reduce the level of inflammation in patients with cholelithiasis in the early stage of SAP, relieve clinical symptoms and improve clinical efficacy.

Objective:The surveillance results of brucellosis in Lushan County, Pingdingshan City, Henan Province are analyzed to provide basis for formulating prevention and control strategies.Methods:Retrospective analysis method was used to collect the surveillance data from Lushan County Center for Disease Control and Prevention and Animal Husbandry Department from 2011 to 2019. Descriptive statistical analysis was made on the serological, pathogenic of brucellosis.Results:From 2011 to 2019, 15 943 high-risk people were investigated, and 10 834 were serologically tested, with a positive detection rate of 23.11% (2 504/10 834). Among them, the positive detection rate of brucellosis serum increased rapidly in 2013 and decreased after 2016. The positive detection rate was 25.87% (1 593/6 157) in men and 19.48% (911/4 677) in women. The age of positive detection was mainly 40-< 70 years old, accounting for 70.45% (1 764/2 504). The positive detection rate of farmers in all occupations was the highest, which was 25.97% (2 242/8 634). There were significant differences in the positive detection rates among different gender, age and occupation (χ 2=61.163, 27.855, 257.412, P < 0.01). A total of 578 blood samples from patients with acute brucellosis were isolated and cultured, 215 strains of Brucella were detected, and the positive detection rate was 37.20%.

Objective: To compare the prevalence of dental caries and periodontal disease in patients with end-stage renal disease treated with maintenance hemodialysis with that in healthy controls and to investigate the relationship between end-stage renal disease, dental caries and periodontal disease. Methods : A total of 82 maintenance hemodialysis patients who met the inclusion criteria were selected as the case group, and 86 healthy persons who underwent oral examination in the physical examination center were selected as the control group. Dental caries and periodontal conditions were examined in the two groups. The dental caries examination was conducted by determining the number of decayed-missing-filled teeth, which was recorded as recommended by the World Health Organization. The periodontal condition parameters included the plaque index, calculus index, bleeding on probing, periodontal pocket depth and clinical attachment loss. Results: The prevalence of dental caries in the case group and healthy control group was 87.8% and 81.4%, respectively, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05). The periodontal indexes, including the plaque index, calculus index, probe bleeding index, periodontal pocket depth and clinical attachment level, in the case group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05), and the prevalence of periodontitis in the case group was significantly higher than that in the control group (97.6% vs 88.4%, P < 0.05). Conclusion The dental caries conditions were comparable between the case group and the control group, but the prevalence and severity of periodontitis were significantly higher in the case group than in the control group.
