3.Bacterial contamination on uniforms of health care workers in a general hospital
Chinese Journal of Infection Control 2015;(2):117-119
Objective To realize the bacterial contamination on uniforms of health care workers(HCWs)in a gen-eral hospital,and put forward the corresponding management measures.Methods In May-October 2012,a total of 360 specimens of 120 uniforms of HCWs in departments of respiratory internal medicine,general surgery,gynecolo-gy,and pediatrics were taken on the first,third and seventh day of wearing,bacterial counts on uniforms were mo-nitored,compared and analyzed.Results Bacterial counts of uniforms at different wearing time were statistically differ-ent.The longer time of uniforms were worn,the more bacteria could be detected.Bacterial contamination of nurses’uni-forms was more serious than doctors ([0.65±3.38]CFU/cm2 vs [7.68±2.99]CFU/cm2 ),contamination of uniforms of HCWs in surgical departments was more serious than non-surgical departments([10.43±4.12 ]CFU/cm2 vs [8.60± 3.01]CFU/cm2 )(U=5.06,2.78,respectively,both P<0.01),over standard rate of different sites of HCWs’uniforms were significantly different(χ2 =33.12,P<0.01));over standard rates of bacteria on the cuffs,abdomen and chest sites was 73.33%,58.33% and 36.67% respectively.Conclusion The management of cleaning system of HCWs’uniforms needs to be strengthened,the change cycle of uniforms is suggested twice a week,and the frequency needs to be increased in high contamination departments.
4.Clinical significance of serum procaleitonin and C -reactive protein testing for pneumonia
Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2015;(12):1866-1868,1869
Objective To investigate serum procalcitonin(PCT)and C-reactive protein(CRP)and clinical significance of changes in children with pneumonia.Methods 123 cases of childhood pneumonia included 48 cases of bacterial infection,mycoplasma infection in 36 cases,39 cases with viral infections,40 cases of physical healthy children were selected as the control group.They were measured in serum PCT and CRP content of the correlation between test results and analysis of clinical final diagnosis.Results The level of PCT in Bacterial pneumonia group, Mycoplasma pneumonia group and viral pneumonia group were (5.80 ±1.92)μg/L,(0.45 ±0.15 )μg/L and (0.32 ±0.17)μg/L,respectively,significantly higher than control group(0.19 ±0.10)μg/L(t =5.37,3.41,1.23, all P <0.05);the level of CRP in Bacterial pneumonia group,mycoplasma pneumonia group and viral pneumonia group were(45.34 ±13.35 )mg/L,(28.63 ±11.37)mg/L and (8.19 ±2.07)mg/L,respectively,significantly higher than control group(3.85 ±1.31)mg/L(t =5.37,3.41,1.23,all P <0.05);serum PCT sensitivity to detect pneumonia children,specificity and the positive predictive were 93.56%,82.35% and 69.25%,respectively,higher than serum CRP diagnosis of pneumonia sensitivity,specificity and positive predictive(χ2 =4.41,5.83 and 7.62, respectively,all P <0.05).Conclusion Serum PCT and CRP measurement can be used as an auxiliary to identify indicators of childhood pneumonia,the diagnosis of pneumonia in children has important clinical significance.
5.Advances in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy
International Journal of Pediatrics 2010;37(2):158-161
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy(ARVC) is a cardiac muscle disease characterized by peculiar right ventricular involvement that precipitates ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death.ARVC is a major cause of sudden death in the young and athletes.It is familial origin in 50% to 70% of cases,which follows an autosomal in heritance pattern.The pathology consists of a genetically determined dystrophy of the right ventricular myocardium with fibrofatty replacement.Clinical diagnosis can be achieved by demonstrating functional and structural alterations of the right ventricle,depolarization and repolarization abnormalities,arrhythmias with the left bundle branch block and fibro-fatty replacement through endomyocardial biopsy.Clinical research has indicated that successful treatment of ARVC is based on lifestyle modifications,prophylactic therapy(antiarrhythmic drugs,catheter ablation and implantable cardioverter defibrillator)to prevent sudden death.
6.Effect of Acyclovir on the Neurological Function and Cytokines of Children with Viral Meningitis
China Pharmacy 2015;(18):2491-2492
OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of acyclovir on neurological function and cytokines of children with viral menin-gitis. METHODS:Totally 70 children with viral meningitis were randomly divided into control group and observation group. All children were given routine treatment,including defervescence,reducing intracranial pressure and regulating water and electrolyte balance,etc. Based on it,the control group was treated by Ribavirin glucose injection 15 mg/kg,iv,bid;observation group was treated by Acyclovir glucose injection 5 mg/kg,iv,tid. The course for both was 7 d. The clinical data was compared,including the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF),matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum,insu-lin-like growth factor-Ⅱ(IGF-Ⅱ) and insulin like growth factor binding protein-3(IGFBP-3) in CSF before and after treatment and the incidence of adverse reactions. There were no obvious adverse reactions during the treatment. RESULTS:After treatment, the VEGF and MMP-9 in serum and the VEGF,MMP-9,IGF-Ⅱ and IGFBP-3 in CSF in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and observation group was lower than control group,with significant differences(P<0.05). There was no adverse reactions in 2 groups during the treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Compared with ribavirin,acyclovir can more obviously improve the neurological function and cytokines of children with viral meningitis,with similar safety.
7.The therapeutic effect of insulin lispro mix 50/50 combined with metformin in newly diagnosed overweight/obese type 2 diabetic mellitus patients
Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2014;37(19):4-6
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect and safety of insulin lispro mix 50/50 combined with mefformin in newly diagnosed overweight/obese type 2 diabetic mellitus patients.Methods Sixty-two patients with newly diagnosed overweight/obsess type 2 diabetic mellitus were randomly divided into observation group (32 cases) and control group (30 cases) by systematic sampling method.The observation group received insulin lispro mix 50/50 combined with metformin,and the control group received recombinant human insulin and insulin glargine.The therapeutic effect and safety were compared between the 2 groups.Results There were no statistical differences in the blood glucose before eating,before retiring and at mane primo 3:00 between the 2 groups (P > 0.05).There were no statistical differences in the time of blood glucose standard and rate of hypoglycaemia between the 2 groups (P > 0.05).Daily insulin dosage and costs in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(0.6 ± 0.1) U/kg vs.(0.8 ± 0.1) U/kg and (15.8 ±2.1) yuan/d vs.(21.3 ±2.6) yuan/d],and there were statistical differences (P <0.05).Conclusion Insulin lispro mix 50/50 combined with mefformin provides a convenient,effective and safe therapy for newly diagnosed overweight/obese type 2 diabetic mellitus patients and high cost performance.

Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2012;30(1):86-90
Microbial keratitis is one of major causes of vision loss and blindness worldwide today,especially in developing countries in Asia and Africa.Population-based annual incidence of microbial keratitis is 0.36/10000 to 79.9 /104.The epidemiological features and predisposing factors for microbial keratitis varies significantly from country to country,even from region to region within the same country.The progress of research on describing epidemiological characteristics demographiccharacteristics andpredisposing factors of microbialkeratitiswere reviewed in this paper.
9.An observation of clinical effects of soaking therapy with traditional Chinese medicine on athlete's foot
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2002;8(8):496-497
Objective To observe effects of soaking therapy with traditional Chinese medicine on athlete's foot. Methods346 cases of the treatment group (175 cases of erosive type and 171 cases of bullous type) were treated with soaking therapy by traditional Chinese medicine and 335 cases of the control group (170 cases of erosive type and 165 cases of bullous type) were treated with 3% Clotrimazolum ointment. Effects of two groups were compared.Results Effect of the treatment group was obviously more superior to that of the control group (P<0.0001). ConclusionsIt shows easy and effective that patients with athlete's foot were treated by soaking therapy with traditional Chinese medicine.
