Objective To study the homology and clinical distribution of tigecycline-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (A.baumannii )in a hospital.Methods Multidrug-resistant A.baumannii (MDRAB,n = 88 )from specimens from clinical departments of a hospital in 2013-2014 were collected and detected susceptibility to tigecy-cline;homology of tigecycline-resistant strains were detected by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE),clinical characteristics and distribution of infected patients were analyzed.Results 88 patients didn’t use tigecycline before MDRAB were isolated.Of 88 MDRAB strains,4 (4.55%)were resistant to tigecycline,which were No.10,31 , 33,and 87 strains.PFGE results revealed that No.31 ,33,and 87 strains were of the same genotype,and with high homology,which distributed in three different departments;No.31 strain was detected from general intensive care unit (ICU),No.33 strain was detected from emergency ICU,although strains were detected from different depart-ments,patients were transferred before strains were isolated,and were admitted to departments of gastrointestinal surgery and emergency ICU during the same period;No.87 strain was detected from neurosurgical ICU and patient had never been transferred,the detection time was 7-8 months later than No.31 and 33 strains.No.10 strain was isolated from emergency ICU,patient was not transferred.Conclusion Of MDRAB isolated in this hospital,tigecy-cline-resistant strains are low,most strains are homologous,cross infection may be exists in different departments.

Objective To investigate the effect of diabetes on clinical efficacy of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in the treatment of non-viral hepatitis hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods Retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 367 non-hepatitis virus HCC patients treated by TACE, included 153 diabetes mellitus cases (test group) and blood glucose of 214 patients was normal (control group). To assess the treatment effect after 1 month of TACE based on response evaluation criteria in solid tumors, include complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), progressive disease (PD), and calculate the disease control rate. Through 6 to 75 months follow-up to observed long-term efficacy, record the time to progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS) time. Survival rate were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank analysis by SPSS 16.0. The single-factor analysis was used to analyze variables which variables that differed were analyzed by Cox regression. Results The disease control rate of test group was 69.9%(107/153) and control group was 74.3%(159/214), the difference was no statistically significant (P=0.125). The median time to progression (mTTP) and median overall survival (mOS) of test group were 10.0 and 15.0 months;and the mTTP and mOS of control group were 14.0 and 19.0 months, the difference were statistically significant (P=0.023 and P= 0.026). Tumor diameter ≥4.5 cm, numbers of tumor ≥3, invasion of blood vessels, α-fetoprotein≥200 μg/L, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score and diabetes were risk factors for OS of HCC patients. Conclusion Diabetes is unfavorable factors for overall survival of non-hepatitis HCC tread by TACE.

Objective To evaluate the effect of resuscitation with hypertonic sodium chloride hydroxyethyl starch 40 injection (HSH40) mixed with suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) on oxidative stress responses of lung tissues and histone acetylation in a rat model of lethal hemorrhagic shock after entering high altitude for the first time.Methods Forty-five healthy male Wistar rats,aged 3-4 months,weighing 250-300 g,were transported from the breeding area at altitude 1500 m to the experimental area at altitude 3 780 m.The rats were divided into 3 groups (n=15 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group Sham),hemorrhagic shock group (group HS),and resuscitation with HSH40 mixed with SAHA group (group HSH/SAHA).Lethal hemorrhagic shock was induced by removing 40% of blood volume from the left femoral artery at a constant speed within 10 min,followed by removing 15% of blood volume from the right femoral vein at a constant speed within 50 min.Only cannulation was performed,and the rats received no blood letting or resuscitation in group Sham.The animals were resuscitated via the right femoral artery after successful establishment of the model,SAHA 7.5/Kg dissolved in HSH40 4 ml/kg was infused within 5 min in group HSH+SAHA.Immediately before blood letting,immediately after blood letting and at 3 h after resuscitation (at the time of death for the rats survived less than 3 h),arterial blood samples were obtained for blood gas analysis,and pH value,partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2),partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2) and arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) were recorded.The rats were sacrificed after blood samples were collected from the abdominal aorta at 3 h after resuscitation (at the time of death for the rats died within 3 h after resuscitation),and lungs were removed for examination of the pathologic changes which were scored (with a light microscope) and for determination of wet to dry weight ratio (W/D ratio),activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and expression of histone H3 acetylation at lysine 9 (Ac-H3K9) in lung tissues (by Western blot).Results Compared with group Sham,the lung injury score,W/D ratio and content of MDA were significantly increased,and the activity of SOD was decreased in HS and HSH+SAHA groups,pH value and PaCO2 were significantly decreased and PaO2 and SaO2 were increased immediately after blood letting and at 3 h after resuscitation in group HS,and PaO2 and SaO2 were significantly increased immediately after blood letting and at 3 h after resuscitation,pH value and PaCO2 were decreased immediately after blood letting,and the expression of Ac-H3K9 was up-regulated in group HSH+SAHA (P<0.05).Compared with group HS,pH value,PaCO2,PaO2 and SaO2 were significantly increased at 3 h after resuscitation,the lung injury score,W/D ratio and content of MDA were decreased,the activity of SOD was increased,and the expression of Ac-H3K9 was up-regulated in group HSH+SAHA (P<0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which resuscitation with HSH40 mixed with SAHA exerts lung protection may be related to inhibiting oxidative stress responses and histone acetylation in lung tissues in a rat model of lethal hemorrhagic shock after entering high altitude for the first time.

Objective To explore the effect of continuous nursing intervention on limb function and nursing quality after proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) internal fixation for femoral intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly. Methods From February, 2017 to November, 2018, 100 elderly patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture who underwent PFNA internal fixation in our hospital were randomly divided into control group (n = 50) and observation group (n = 50), who accepted routine nursing and continuous nursing respectively for three months. They were assessed with Harris score and visual analogue scale for pain (VAS) before and after the intervention. The postoperative nursing effect was compared. Results The Harris score increased in both groups after the intervention (t > 45.98, P < 0.001), and increased more in the observation group than in the control group (t = 15.03, P < 0.001). The VAS score decreased in both groups after the intervention (t > 16.33, P < 0.001), and decreased more in the observation group than in the control group (t = 9.749, P < 0.001). The effect of nursing was better in the observation group than in the control group (Z = -2.272, P = 0.023). Conclusion Continuous nursing intervention can significantly improve the limb function and nursing satisfaction of elderly patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture after PFNA.
