Objective To investigate the clinical value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) in the diagnosis of postnatal placenta increta. Methods Twenty-six patients with postnatal placenta increta were examined by gray-scale and color Doppler ultrasound and CEUS. Then microvascular perfusion and enhanced features of lesions, myometrium and serous layer were observed. Arriving time (AT), time to peak intensity (TTP) and the lasting time of enhancement (LTE) were recorded. AT,TTP and LTE of enhanced lesions were compared with those of normal myometrium. Results Serous layer, lesions and adjcent myometrium,normal myometrium enhanced in turn. There was no obvious boundary between the lesions enhanced and adjcent myometrium. AT and TTP of the lesions enhanced were both less than those of normal myometrium ( P <0. 05). LTE of the part of lesions enhanced was more than that of normal myometrium ( P <0.05).Part of lesions never enhanced during the whole process. The serous layer of uterine was smooth and uninterrupted in 24 patients. These 24 patients all recovered after conservative treatment. The local serous layer adjcent lesions was not smooth, but no contrast agent leakage occurred in another 2 patients, and uterine lobectomy were performed in emergency because of massive hemorrhage during conservative treatment. Conclusions Microvascular perfusion and enhanced features of lesions,myometrium and serous layer could be showed clearly through CEUS.

Objective To study the relationship between biofilm-forming ability,distribution of quorum sensing related genes and antibiotic resistance in clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Methods The biofilm-forming ability of 94 clinical isolates was analyzed semi-quantitatively by crystal violet staining.The antibiotic resistance of the isolates was determined by K-B method.Quorum sensing related genes,lasI,lasR,rhlR and rhlI,were detected by PCR.The diffe,rences of drug resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with different biofilm-forming ability and the effects of quorum sensing related genes on biofilm-forming ability were analyzed.Results Of the 94 isolates,89(94.7%) showed biofilm-forming ability.The 89 isolates consisted of 22(23.4%) isolates with weakly positive biofilm-forming ability,44 (46.8 %) with positive biofilm-forming ability and 23 (24.5 %) with strongly positive biofilm-forming ability.The strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with different biofilm-forming ability showed different drug resistance rates to amikacin,tobramycin and gentamicin (P < 0.05).The drug resistance rate of the strains with strong positive biofilm-forming ability to amikacin was higher than that of the strains with positive and weakly positive biofilm-forming ability(P < 0.05),and the drug resistance rates to tobramycin and gentamicin were higher than those of the strains with weakly positive biofilm-forming ability(P < 0.05).Of the 94 isolates,91 strains carried lasI,lasR,rhlI and rhlR gene and 2 strains only lost lasR gene,and 1 strain lost all the 4 genes.The strains with only lasR gene deficiency or all the lasI,lasR,rhlI and rhlR gene deficiencies showed negative biofilm-forming ability,and were sensitive to conventional antimicrobial agents.Conclusion Most of the clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in this study showed strong ability of biofilm-forming ability which may correlate positively to partial antibiotic resistance.The quorum sensing related genes may affect biofilm formation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
