OBJECTIVE To investigate the susceptible factors and the methods of prevention and treatment of nosocomial deep fungal infection in intensive care unit(ICU).METHODS The clinical information of 798 patients in ICU was investigated from Jul 2005 to Jun 2007.The risk factors,species,drug-resistance and the methods of prevention of fungal infection were analyzed.RESULTS Fungal infections were found in 137 cases(17.2%).The lower respiratory tract accounted for 72.3% in 137 cases with fungal infection.A total of 180 strains of fungi were isolated,Candida albicans,C.tropicalis and C.glabrata accounted for 43.3%,25.6% and 23.3%.The resistance characteristics to fluconazole,itraconazole,5-fluorocytosine and amphotericin B were relatively weak.The factors related to nosocomial fungal infection were the severity of the underlying disease,long-term use of antibiotics and glucocorticoid and invasive procedure.CONCLUSIONS Proper use of antibiotics and immuno-depressor,reduction of unnecessary operation and early diagnosis are the keys in prevention of systemic fungal infection.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and tendency towards drug resistance of Candida albicans which causing clinical deep infection and to supply data to clinical treatment. METHODS The distribution and tendency towards drug resistance of C. albicans isolates from infected patients from Jan 2007 to Dec 2007 were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS All 1698 strains of Candida were isolated from patients sputum,urine,blood,secretion,etc. From 1075 cases with C. albicans,965(89.8%) strains were isolated from sputum. The resistance rate to nyststin,fluconazole,itraconazole,5-fluorocytosine and amphotericin B were 3.9%,3.6%,2.5%,0.5% and 0,respectively. The factors related to nosocomial C. albicans infection were the use of antibiotics and condition,invasive procedure,physical fitness,age,basic state of patients,etc.CONCLUSIONS The incidence and resistance of C. albicans infection in a hospital have increasing by years. Proper use of antibiotics and immunodepressors,reduction of unnecessary operation,and early diagnosis and treatment are the keys in preventing from systemic C. albicans infection.

Objective To observe the effect of small dosage of perphenazine(2～6 mg)on psychotic symptoms of senile dementia.Methods 31 senile cases with psychotic symptoms after dementia(Alzheimer disease or vascular dementia)accepted small dosage of perphenazine in addition of the conventional therapy.They were assessed with Sadoz Clinical Assessment Geriatric(SCAG)and Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale(TESS).Results The score decreased 50%～75%(markedly improved)in 2 cases,25%～50%(improved)in 22 cases,lower than 25%(no improved)in 7 cases.Some mild emergent symptoms have been observed.Conclusion Small dosage of perphenazine is safe and effective in treating psychotic symptoms of senile dementia.

Objective To explore the treatment effect and comfort of colostomy surgery with fecal water der-matitis around stoma after application of multilayer soft silicone dressings.Methods Approved by the Hospital Ethics Committee and the patients'informed consent,120 patients were divided into the hydrocolloid dressings group ( the control group) and multi-layer soft silicone dressing group (the treatment group),60 cases in each group.Before treatment,after treatment 24h and 36h,DET score,GCO score and the treatment effect were evaluated.Results After treated for 24h,the DET,GCO scores and treatment effects ( in the control group,cured in 3 cases,effective 45 cases, in the treatment group 5 patients were cured,effective in 46 cases) had no significant differences between the two groups (t=-2.624,P>0.05,t=-0.429,P>0.05,χ2 =0.519,P>0.05).After treated for 36h,the DET,GCO scores and treatment effects ( in the control group:cured in 29 cases,effective in 25 cases,in the treatment group:51 patients were cured,effective in 9 cases) had significant differences between the two groups ( t=-5.022,P<0.01,t=12.784,P<0.01,χ2 =6.316,P<0.05).Conclusion Colostomy fecal water dermatitis around stoma after application of multilayer soft silicone dressings can significantly improve the patients'comfort.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the tendency of bacterial distribution and drug resistance of pathogens in ICU,then instruct clinical application of antibiotics reasonably.METHODS The identification of bacteria,isolated from patients in ICU from Jan 2005 to Dec 2006,and antibiotic susceptibility by ATB expression were used.RESULTS A total of 1197 pathogens strains were isolated,Gram-negative bacilli,Gram-postive cocci and fungi accounted for 64.2%,19.6% and 15.8%,respectively.The most common pathogens of them were Pseudomonas aeruginosa(22.1%).Except Escherichia coli(40%),the rate of the ESBL-producing strains of Serratia marcescens,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacter cloacae were higher than 70%.The most common pathogens of Gram-postive cocci were Staphylococcus.Meticillin-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus accounted for 93.8%.Mainly pathogenic bacteria were multi-resistant to some antibiotics.There were 189 strains fungi.And all the fungi were sensitive to amphotericin B,fluconazole and ketoconazole.CONCLUSIONS The infection and multi-drug resistance of pathogens are serious in ICU.It′s important and urgent to carry out surveillance of bacterial resistance for appropriately using antibiotics.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence on air quality in cleaning room of the supply department when the water/gas blast gun is used to clean endoscope,to give basis for valuable protective procedures. METHODS Bacterial number of the air in the supply department was sampled using flat plate settling process pre-and post-operation. Simultaneously,the air purification effect of the laminar purification equipment was evaluated. RESULTS The air bacterial content before the water/gas blast gun ran was significantly different from that when the gun stopped (P

OBJECTIVE To investigate the tendency of bacterial distribution and drug resistance of pathogens in department of respiratory medicine,then instruct clinical application of antibiotics reasonably.METHODS By the retrospective methods,we analyzed the pathogens isolated from the sputa of the hospitalized patients with lower respiratory tract infection in the department of respiratory medicine from Jul 2007 to Jun 2009 and their drug resistance.RESULTS A total of 1508 strains of pathogens were isolated,Gram-negative bacilli were 47.3%,The most common pathogens of them were Pseudomonas aeruginosa(15.6%).The rate of the ESBLs-producing strains of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 41.0% and 35.8%,respectively.Fungi were 44.1%.And all the fungi were sentive to amphotericin B,fluconazole and ketoconazole.Gram-postive cocci accounted for 8.6%.The most common pathogen of Gram-postive cocci was Staphylococcus.Meticillin resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus accounted for 62.4%.CONCLUSIONS The drug-resistance of pathogenic bacteria due to nosocomial infection and community-acquired infection in respiratory medical ward is increasing year-by-year.It is necessary to continuously monitor drug-resistance and rationally use antibiotics.

Objective This study is to investigate cytokine pathway,Jak-Stat signal pathway,neuroactive ligand-receptor pathway gene expression pattern of peripheral blood mononuclear cell(PBMC) of primary sjgren syndrome patients.Methods The PBMC sample of 3 patients with sjgren syndrome and 3 healthy volunteers with consistent age were collected.The total RNAs was extracted from the PBMC samples,and reverse transcripted in vitro transcription(IVT),labeled with Cy5/Cy3 and hybridized on the gene chips.After scanning and data extraction with LuxScan 3.0,differentially expressed genes were analyzed with SAM method.The online tool of molecule analysis system(MAS) was used for biological knowledge mining.Results Statistical difference was calculated between the patient and control group in the following three pathways: cytokine pathway,Jak-Stat signal pathway,neuroactive ligand-receptor pathway.Among these,genes of IL-2RA,IL-10 were up-regulated and genes of PF4,GZMA were down-regulated.Conclusion Understanding of differently expressed genes should help us disclose the potential molecular mechanism underlying the development process of pathogenesis of primary Sjgren′s syndrome.And the research may provide new target therapy for SS.
