BACKGROUND:During joint replacement, different materials of prosthesis can be used. Different prosthesis can produce different effects and the stress distribution of bone interface. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of different materials on the stress distribution and biomechanics of the bone interface of artificial hip joint. METHODS:The CT scan of the hip was carried out. The image data were saved in DICOM format and processed by MIMICS software. The 3D finite element model of the femur was obtained by ANSYS. A three dimensional finite element model of the femur was made with the material properties of the femur. Three kinds of different replacement prosthesis materials (Co Cr Mo aloy, titanium aloy and composite materials) were selected, and the specific requirements of the actual joint replacement were selected, and different types of prosthesis were designed in CAE software. In the STL format, the prosthesis model was imported into MIMICS, and the femur and prosthesis were assembled. The stress status of different prosthesis was analyzed, and the stress shielding rates of exterior and interior sides of middle and lower parts of the femur, right to and 30 mm below lesser trochanter and right to lesser trochanter of the proximal femur were calculated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Through three-dimensional finite element analysis, a direct and accurate model of the femur and the three-dimensional model of the prosthesis were established. According to the actual situation, material assignment of the femoral three-dimensional finite element model was conducted to obtain the corresponding model. Thus, the properties of different materials of the femur were shown visualy. The femoral stress of cobalt chromium molybdenum aloy, titanium aloy, and composite material was simulated after replacement. Results found that the stress shielding rate can decrease in the middle and lower parts of the femur. After replacement, the femoral stress is higher than that of the intact femur. The experimental results show that the stress shielding of the joint was performed after joint replacement with Co Cr Mo aloy, titanium aloy and composite materials. Among them, the composite material is more close to the actual physiological environment of the human body, and it can better reduce the stress shielding effect, and is beneficial to the stress from the prosthesis to the femur.

OBJECTIVE To determine the clinical distribution and drug resistance characteristics of pathogens from nosocomial infection cases to provide the gist for clinical therapy. METHODS Pathogens isolation, and identification and drug resistance tests were conducted for samples, which were gathered from inpatients in our hospital between Jan 2006 to Dec 2006. Then, MRSA tests were performed for Staphylococcus and ESBLs-producing G-bacilli were also detected. RESULTS Among 4 262 strains pathogens from 10 573 samples, 2 475 strains were G-bacilli (58.1%), 695 strains were G+ bacteria (16.3%) and 1 092 strains were fungi (25.6%).The most common species among 3 170 pathogen strains were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (24.3%), Acinetobacter baumannii (10.9%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (10.4%), Escherichia coli (8.9%) and Staphylococcus aureus (10.7%).The clinical departments with higher infective rate were Department of Neurosurgery, Department of Respiratory Disease, ICU, Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, and Department of Geriatrics in order. Drug resistance results showed that the resistance rates of S. aureus to clindamycin, quinolones, and tetracyclines were more than 50%, but no S. aureus was resistant to vancomycin and minocycline. The resistance rates of G-bacilli to imipenem, meropenem, and piperacillin/tazobactam were lower, but with 30-60% of resistance rates to other commonly used antibiotic drug. CONCLUSIONS The pathogens in nosocomial infection are mainly the opportunistic pathogenic bacteria and mostly G-bacilli. The infection due to fungi shows an increasing trend. It should pay attention to the pathogenic detection and rational use of antimicrobial agent.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical distribution and resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii in our hospital in order to provide evidence to proper use of antibiotic drugs in clinics. METHODS A. baumannii isolates were collected in our hospital from Jan 2004 to Dec 2006. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by disk-diffusion method,according to the standards of CLSI/NCCLS, the data were analyzed by WHONET5.4 software. RESULTS The isolating rate of A. baumannii from 2004 to 2006 was 2.5%,3.8%, and 10.9%, respectively.It was distributed mainly from ICU (29.2%), respiratory ward (19.3%) and emergency ward (10.9%). The highest appearing rate was the sputum, up to 78.0%. More than 60% of isolates were resistant to antimicrobial agents tested such as PIP, CTX, CRO and ATM. A. baumannii showed the highest susceptibility to carbopenems with about 80%. CONCLUSIONS The infection of A. baumannii is one of the most complex problems. Therefore, monitoring A. baumannii constantly and regularly, finding out resistant strains timely, and adjusting the treatment regimen are very important to the prevention of nosocomial infection. The disinfection should be strengthened for hospital environment and medical staff in order to control existence and spread of A. baumannii.
