Objective:To investigate the variation of the drug resistance of Escherichia coli(Eco)against antibacterial in clinical specimens in the hospital, and to evaluate the simultaneous use of antibacterial, to explore to provide the reference for the reasonable clinical use of antibacterial. Method:Eco was separated from all kinds of clinical specimens of out-patients and in-patients in the hospital from August of 2005 to April of 2006,and ESBLs was detected with Kirby-Bauer (K-B) disk diffusion method. It was also counted that the antibacterial drugs ranked the first 30 in sales per month and their use frequencies in the same period in the hospital. Result:The detectable rate of producing ESBLs Eco was 58.6%. Eco was completely sensitive to imipenem. It had lower resistance rates, only 2% and 4% , against piperacillin/tazobactam and cefoperazone/sulbactam; and had 59% and 55% resistance rates respectively against cefotaxime claforan and ceftazidime pentahydrate in the third generation cephalosporin. The third generation cephalosporin and quinolones kept high in sales and their use frequencies ranked the first three. The use of the third generation cephalosporin with anhydrase inhibitors also had an uptrend. Conclusion:There is a direct relation between the use of a great deal of antibacterial and the imitative drug resistance of Eco. It is necessary to strengthen its clinical management and to raise the level of drug use.

Multivariate time series problems widely exist in production and life in the society. Anomaly detection has provided people with a lot of valuable information in financial, hydrological, meteorological fields, and the research areas of earthquake, video surveillance, medicine and others. In order to quickly and efficiently find exceptions in time sequence so that it can be presented in front of people in an intuitive way, we in this study combined the Riemannian manifold with statistical process control charts, based on sliding window, with a description of the covariance matrix as the time sequence, to achieve the multivariate time series of anomaly detection and its visualization. We made MA analog data flow and abnormal electrocardiogram data from MIT-BIH as experimental objects, and verified the anomaly detection method. The results showed that the method was reasonable and effective.

Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic effect of gamma knife on patients with intracranial cavernous angioma (CA). Methods: The medical records of 122 patients (134 lesions) who underwent radiosurgery were reviewed retrospectively. Results: hT e average follow-up period was 43 months. No patient died. One patient underwent CA resection. In patients with epilepsy, 83% patients showed alleviation of seizures. About 44% of the lesions shrank in size after treatment with gamma knife radiosurgery (59/134). Seven cases had hemorrhage again after radiosurgery, and the overall annual hemorrhage rate was 1.6%. Edema was found in 11.5% patients (14/122) and all patients showed improvement atf er treatment. Conclusion: Gamma knife is a safe treatment for CA, which could obviously improve the symptoms of epilepsy. Gamma knife radiosurgery is the if rst option for the treatment of cavernous sinus angiomas.

Objective To explore if it is essential to excise ipsilateral adrenal gland in radical nephrectomy.Methods Two hundred and sixty-three patients underwent radical nephrectomy were analyzed retrospectively.The duration of operation,bleeding volumn,complications and survival rates were compared between the adrenalectomy and adrenal preserved groups.The clinical data of the patients with adrenal gland involvement were analyzed as well.Results There were 214 clinical localized(T_(1-2)N_0M_0 )renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients,26 local advanced RCC(T_(3-4)N_(0-2)M_0 ) patients and 23 metastatic RCC(T_(1-4)N_(0-2)M_1) patients in this study.In the 263 patients,146 cases received ipsilateral adrenal gland excisions,while 117 cases had the ipsilateral adrenal glands preserved.The duration of operation,estimated blood loss and the complications did not differ significantly between these two groups.Only 8 patients had adrenal gland involvement.The mean size of the 8 tumors was 9.7 cm and 5 of them had a diameter ≥8 cm.In the 8 patients,6 had the tumor in the upper pole and 2 had the whole kidney involved.One hundred and twenty-nine clinical stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ patients had ipsilateral adrenal excised,while only 4 (3.1%) had adrenal gland involvement.Seventeen clinical stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ patients had ipsilateral adrenal excised,and 4 (23.5%) had adrenal gland involvements.The clinical stages of these 8 patients were stage Ⅲand Ⅳ.The patients were followed up for 28 months (3-102 months).There was no significant difference of 5-year survival rates between the ipsilateral adrenal gland excised and preserved patients categorized according to pathological stage.Conclusion For patients with renal cancer larger than or equal to 8 cm,localized in upper pole of kidney or with the whole kidney involve and with a clinical stage higher or equal to Ⅲ,it is essential to excise ipsilateral adrenal gland in radical nephrectomy,otherwise the ipsilateral adrenal can be preserved.

Objective To compare the efficacy and side effects between systemic chemotherapy and hepatic arterial infusion by combination of oxaliplatin and 5-fluorouracil (FOLFOX-6) with 5-fluorouracil in the patients who have developed hepatic metastasis after colorectal cancer operation. The factors that would affect the prognosis without operational treatment were also analyzed. Methods 46patients who had signed the informed consents were allocated into two groups: the group with general chemotherapy (Trial Group includes 26 cases) and the one with hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (Control Group includes 20 cases). The total effective rate, the prognosis, the cytoxicitic side effects,quality of life, the total survival rate and the responses were the main parameters determined. Kaplan-Meier was used to analyze Mono-factor to the prognostic responses and the Cox mode was used to analyze poly-factor to the prognostic responses. Results The overall survival rate was significantly higher by using systemic treatment versus HAI(median, 15. 0 v 11.2 months;P＜0.05). The difference in overall responsive rate (CR+PR) between the two groups was statistically significant (50% v 10%;P=0. 011). No significant difference was found in PS scale during the treatment. (P=0. 126). Except for myelosuppression and abdominal pain, no significant difference was found in the other side effects. Univariate analysis revealed that the invasive lesions to serosa, the distribution of liver metastases, the size and number of liver metastases, primary carcinoma involving lymph nodes and the treatment were correlated with prognoses. Cox regression analysis showed that the larger diameter of liver metastases, the number of liver lesions, primary carcinomas involved in serosal layer and the treatment modules were independent prognostic factors. Conclusions The oxaliplatin-based FOLFOX-6 chemotherapy regiment has a better responsive rate and survival rate than the traditional infusion with 5-fluorouracil to the main hepatic artery for interventional therapy. The diameter of the hepatic metastasis larger than 5em, multiple hepatic metastasis and the primary lesions penetrating serosal layer suggest the poor prognosis. The oxaliplatin-based systematic chemotherapy has a better prognosis. Therefore,it is worth carrying on further study on modification of traditional hepatic arterial infusion and on evaluation of therapy by combination of the hepatic arterial infusion with the systematic chemotherapy.

Objective To observe the influence of Qizhi Yifei containing serum on the expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 mRNA in lung fibroblasts, and explore its mechanism. Methods Trypsin digestion method was used to extract fibroblasts from lung tissue in rats. All fibroblasts were cultured and trained to the fourth generation. Then they were randomly divided into control group, model group and drug serum group. The model group and drug serum group were firstly treated by DMEM with 0.002 5 μg/mL TGF-β1. The control group was treated by DMEM only. The control group and model group were then treated by DMEM with blank drug serum in concentration of 5%, and the drug serum group was treated by DEME with Qiahi Yifei containing serum in same concentration. After 48 and 72 hours, RT-PCR was performed to test the expression of MMP-9 mRNA and TIMP-1 mRNA of each group. Results After 48 hours, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 mRNA were significantly increased in model group and drug serum group compared with control group. There was no difference between model group and drug serum group. After 72 hours, MMP-9 mRNA was up-regulated in model group and was decreased in drug serum group compared with control group. There was no significant difference among the three groups on the expression of TIMP-1 mRNA. Conclusion Qizhi Yifei containing serum can decrease the up-regulated expression of MMP-9 mRNA in lung fibroblasts stimulated by TGF-β1.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the complication, survival and life quality, and to explore the efficacy and prognosis of skull base chordoma treated by open surgery and gamma knife surgery (GKS). METHODS: Thirty-eight patients with skull base chordomas who underwent an open surgery and another 19 patients who underwent GKS between January 2002 and January 2010 were followed up. The Karnofsky performance scale (KPS) at admission,discharge and follow-up, and recurrent rates were calculated through SPSS life-table, and survival rate curve was used to evaluate the efficacy and prognosis. RESULTS: Forty patients were followed up, and the survival rate of 1, 3 and 5 years was 92.6%, 74.3% and 60% in 27 patients with open surgery, and 100%, 83.3% and 62.5% in 13 patients with GKS respectively. There was no significant difference between the 2 groups (χ(2)=0.867, P=0.353). There was no significant difference in the KPS score between the 2 groups (P=0.138). CONCLUSION Despite the poor prognosis of skull base chordoma, GKS can effectively improve the survival rate and present life quality of patients with skull base chordoma.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the curative effects and complications when using microvascular decompression (MVD) or gamma knife surgery (GKS) to treat trigeminal neuralgia (TN). And to investigate the prognosis for TN after these treatments. METHODS: Sixty-one TN patients treated using MVD and eighty-six TN patients treated using GKS were enrolled by means of telephone, letter or out-patient recheck; the patients had originally presented from December 1996 to June 2010. A chi-square test was applied to follow-up data on pain relief after 1 month, 6 months and 12 months, and at the final follow-up. RESULTS: One hundred and two patients were followed for 3-151 months. Cumulative pain relief rates at 1, 6, 12 months and at end times were 90.48%, 95.24%, 92.86%, and 95.24%, respectively, for forty-two MVD-treated patients, and 23.33%, 83.33%, 86.67% and 90% for sixty GKS-treated patients, respectively. The effects of two methods for treatment of TN was not statistically different (χ(2) = 2.053, P=0.152). Pain relief rates in the short-term (first month) demonstrated statistically significant differences (P<0.01), but pain relief rates in the long-term showed no significant differences (P>0.05). CONCLUSION Immediate pain relief with MVD treatment is higher than with GKS, but in the long term both treatments were comparable.
