Background:The incidence of chronic constipation is increasing in recent years,which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Aims:To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of lactulose combined with Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecium preparation on chronic constipation. Methods:A total of 112 patients with chronic constipation from Jan. 2011 to Jan. 2014 at Emeishan Hospital of TCM were enrolled,and were randomly divided into observation group and control group. Patients in both groups accepted the guidance of diet. In addition,patients in control group were orally administrated with lactulose while patients in observation group were orally administrated with lactulose combined with Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecium preparation. After 4 weeks of treatment,therapeutic efficacy in the two groups was compared,patient assessment of constipation quality of life scale(PAC-QOL)was used to evaluate the quality of life. Results:The overall therapeutic efficacy rate in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group (98. 2% vs. 72. 2% ;χ2 = 12. 399,P < 0. 05). Score of every factor and the total score of PAC-QOL were significantly lower after treatment than those before treatment in both groups(P < 0. 05),while physical discomfort score and the total score in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group( P < 0. 05). Conclusions:Lactulose combined with Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecium preparation can effectively improve the symptoms of difficulty in defecation,hard stool,and improve the quality of life in patients with chronic constipation.

Objective To observe the effect of tacrolimus(FK506)in promoting repair of the injured spinal cord pathway after neural stem cell transplantation in rats. Methods A neurysm clip was used to compress the T8 spinal cord segment of SD rats under microscope to establish model of spinal cord injury.The rats were randomly divided into three groups seven days after injury,ie,control group (injection of normal saline at the injury center),transplantation group(injection of neural stem cells,NSCs,at the injury center),FK506 group(injection of NSCs at the injury center plus 7 days of intrapernerve conduction was compared by using the Basso-Beatfle-Bresnahan (BBB) scale,BDA tracing,somatosensory evoked potential(SEP)and motor evoked potentials(MEP)monitoring at 1,2,4 and 8weeks. Results The motor function of the hind limb after injury was recovered in various degrees with time,with the most significant recovery at 4 weeks.The BBB score reached 6,the maximum at 8 weeks.BDA tracing showed that some nerve fibers were found crossing the injured center of the spinal cord one week later in FK506 group and cell transplantation group,that BDA-positive labeled corticospinal tract fibets were seen across the injury site in all groups by the end ofthe eight weeks.In the FKS06 group,the regeneration could be observed even as 1.7 cm away from tlle injury center.SEP latency was significantly shorter in the FK506 group after two weeks(P<0.05)and the MEP latency in the FK506 group was shortened significantly at four weeks compared with the other groups(P<0.05),indicating that the immunosuppressants could promote the recovery of the injured spihal cord,shorten the latency of SEP and MEP,improve SEP at early stage and MEP at late stage.Conclusions Systemic application immuno suppressive agents FK506 plays an important role in neuroprotection and neurotrophy,which promotes the repair of the injured spinal cord after neural stem cell transplantation.

With thousands of sequenced 16 S rRNA genes available,and advancements in oligonucleotide microarray technology,the detection of microorganisms in microbial communities consisting of hundreds of species may be possible.The existing algorithms developed for sequence-specific probe design are not suitable for applications in large-scale bacteria detection due to the lack of coverage,flexibility and efficiency.Many other strategies developed for group-specific probe design focus on how to find a unique group-specific probe that can specifically detect all target sequences of a group.Unique group-specific probe for each group can not always be found.Hence,it is necessary to design non-unique probes.Each probe can specifically detect target sequences of a different subgroup.Combination of multiple probes can achieve higher coverage.However,it is a time-consuming task to evaluate all possible combinations.A feasible algorithm using relative entropy and genetic algorithm (GA) to design group-specific non-unique probes was presented.

Objective:To provide scientific evidence for infection prevention and control by analyzing the risk factors of surgical site infection, which can move forward the gateway of infection prevention and control.Methods:The surgery-related information of patients admitted to the Department of General Surgery and Department of Orthopedics, People's Hospital of Guangnan Hospital of Yunnan province from November 2016 to August 2019 was retrospectively analyzed. According to whether postoperative surgical site infection occurred, the patients were divided into an infection group and a non-infection group. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of surgical site infection.Results:A total of 9 346 patients, consisting of 117 patients in the infection group and 9 229 patients in the non-infection group, were included for final analysis. In the infection group, the incidence of surgical site infection was 1.25%. Multivariate analysis showed that hypoproteinemia ( OR = 2.585), unclean incision ( OR = 3.243 and 5.125), and operation duration more than 3 hours ( OR = 2.315), blood transfusion ( OR = 2.239), drainage tube placement ( OR = 2.133) and indwelling catheter placement ( OR = 1.973) were the independent risk factors for surgical site infection, while prophylactic use of antibiotics was a protective factor ( OR = 0.383). Conclusion:Individual factors, operation-related factors, and treatment-related factors are closely related to the occurrence of surgical site infection. Much attention should be paid to the clinical issues like preoperative hypoproteinemia, perioperative prophylactic use of antibiotics and postoperative drainage tube and indwelling catheter placement.
