RESULTS Establishment of the effective management of organization and the feasible rules and regulations was an important pledge.Training,propaganda and education for enhancing every-one′s management consciousness were a considerable element.Matching institutions for treating medical waste was the most important basis.Examinations according to the formulated quality specification were the artifice. CONCLUSIONS PDCA loop method is one of the scientific management for treating the medical wastes.

OBJECTIVE To understand the characteristics of nosocomial infection and its risk factors in the department of neurology, and to explore effective prevention and control measures for reducing the incident rate of nosocomial infection. METHODS Target monitoring procedures were setup. Prospective monitoring was done in inpatients in the department of neurology from Jan 2005 to Dec 2006. RESULTS Among 2682 patients, 135 patients (163 cases) suffered from nosocomial infection. The infection rate of the cases was 6.08%. Compared to the rate before monitoring (13.77%), it decreased 7.69%. The most common infection sites of the nosocomial infection were lower respiratory tract (34.36%) and urinary tract (26.38%), respectively. Pathogen test showed that main pathogens were Gram-negative bacilli (50.00%), then the fungi (32.95%). CONCLUSIONS Through target monitoring we can acquire patients′ information accurately in time, and set effective prevention and control measures to reduce the nosocomial infection rate.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the status quo of pathogenic bacteria distribution and drug resistance of hospital infection in intensive care unit,to provide evidence for the guidance of clinical rational administration and to decrease the hospital infection. METHODS Pathogenic bacteria were isolated from patients who suffered from hospital infection in intensive care unit from 2001 to 2004.K-B slip diffusion method was taken to carry out the sensitive test.Rate of drug resistance of the pathogenic bacteria was analyzed. RESULTS As the bacteria distribution,the highest isolated rate was 60.77%,which was isolated from the sample of respiratory tract.The main pathogenic bacteria were the Gram-negative bacilli(47.69%).And the second pathogenic bacteria were the mycetes(37.69%).The Gram-positive cocci(14.62%) occupied the third.The monitoring of the drug resistance showed that rate of the drug fast was rather higher.The detection rate of the meticillin-resistant staphylococci was 81.82%.The detection rate of the ESBLs from the Escherichia coli and the Klebsiella pneumoniae was 75.00% and 57.14%,respectively. CONCLUSIONS Intensive care unit is one of the highest risk departments for the hospital infection.Generally,the pathogenic bacteria are the multidrug-resistant ones.Enhanced monitoring on pathogenic bacteria distribution and drug resistance analyses of hospital infection in intensive care unit could benefit for the guide of clinical rational administration,the depression of multidrug-resistant bacteria,and the decrease in hospital infection.

Objective To explore the intervention effect of emodin on organophosphorus poisoning induced respiratory failure.Methods 60 male Wistar rats of clean grade were randomly divided into:normal control group, model control group, positive drug group and emodin group, with 15 rats in each group.Except the normal control group rats were given intraperitoneal anesthesia, the right common carotid artery intubation, when rats stayed awake began a septic model.Blood gas analysis and serum level of oxygen free radicals and respiratory rate were compared before poisoning, respiratory failure, intervention of 5, 10, 30 min.Results Mouth breathing, slow respiratory frequency and cyanosis, appeared after exposure.Respiratory frequency decreased after exposure , compared with the positive drug group, respiratory frequency of emodin group 10 min and 30 min was higher ( P<0.05), PaO2, SaO2, BE decreased, PaCO2 increased after respiratory failure, Compared with the positive drug group, PaO2, PaCO2, SaO2 and BE of emodin group for the treatment of 10 min, 30 min was higher,(P <0.05).The level of oxygen free radicals in rats of each group had no significant difference before the exposure and the respiratory failure.Compared with the positive drug group, SOD and MDA of emodin group in 30 min after intervention were higher,( P<0.05 ) .Conclusion Emodin can improve the respiratory frequency of organic phosphorus poisoning induced respiratory failure ,improve blood gas analysis of the indicators and the level of oxygen free radicals.

Objective To investigate the effect of pulsed ultrasound therapy (US) on medial collateral liga-ment healing in rats and it's mechanism.MethodsEighteen 3-month-old male Sprague-Dawley rats with transected medial collateral ligaments (MCLs) were studied. They were randomly divided into a control group, a 0.5 W/cm~2 group and a 1. 0 W/cm~2 group.The control group was not given any treatment.The 0. 5 W/cm~2 group and 1.0 W/cm~2 group were given 10 minutes of pulsed US (duty cycle: on/off = 3 ms/1 ms) daily for 8 days at either 0.5 or 1.0 W/cm~2 intensity. All the rats were sacrificed on the 9th day. After macroscopic examination, their MCLs were harvested and studied using haematoxylin-eosin staining, Van Gieson's staining and immunohistochemical tech-niques in order to detect transforming growth factor beta-1(TGF-β1) and any histological or histochemical changes.ResultsMacroscopically, the lacerated MCLs had healed with scar tissue formation. Scarring appeared to be greater in the 0.5 W/cm~2 and 1.0 W/cm~2 groups than in the control group. Inflamed cells appeared to be more numerous in the treated groups than in the controls. There were significant differences in collagen fiber extent among all three groups. In the 1.0 W/cm~2 group, the average level of TGF-β1 was significantly up-regulated, and TGF-β1 expres-sion was higher than in the other two groups.ConclusionsPulsed US can improve ligament healing in the short term, however whether long-term treatment with US can yield further improvement is unknown. Pulsed US can in-crease the level of TGF-β1, which will be higher with higher US dosage. Pulsed US may enhance injored ligament re-pair by up-regulating TGF-β1.Objective To investigate the effect of pulsed ultrasound therapy (US) on medial collateral liga-ment healing in rats and it's mechanism.MethodsEighteen 3-month-old male Sprague-Dawley rats with transected medial collateral ligaments (MCLs) were studied.

PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,and ISI web were searched without any limitations with regard to publication date or language,as well as the references of qualifying articles.All kinds of cohort studies comprising the risk of gastric cancer between diabetic patients and control subjects were included.We excluded studies that investigated only mortality but not incidence.25 studies met our criteria,and the qualities of these studies were evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale.Statistical analyses were carried out with STATA software version 12.0.A random-effects model meta-analysis showed an increased risk of gastric cancer in diabetic patients (RR =1.20,95 ％ CI 1.12-1.28).Subgroup analyses indicated that this result persisted in studies of both male(RR =1.15,95％ CI 1.02-1.29) and female (RR =1.29,95％ CI 1.09-1.53) subjects,in studies of European countries(RR =1.25,95％ CI 1.07-1.46) and Asia countries (RR =1.18,95％ CI 1.09-1.28).Compared with nondiabetics,the incidence of gastric cancer may be increased by approximately 20％ in diabetics.Thus diabetes may be an independent risk factor for gastric cancer.This effect tends to be more significant in type 1 and female patients.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of serum FER, AFP and AFP-L3 alone or in combination for diagnosis of primary hepatic carcinoma( PHC).Methods This was a case-control study.
Serum FER, AFP and AFP-L3 were determined in 212 patients with PHC ( StageⅠ45 cases, StageⅡ78 cases, StageⅢ81 cases, StageⅣ8 cases) , 127 patients with cirrhosis, 101 patients with chronic hepatitis and 98 controls in the Beijing Youan Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2014 to December 2014.Levels of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 were measured by chemiluminescence, while serum samples were pre-treatment with affinity adsorption before AFP-L3 detection.FER, AFP and AFP-L3 levels were analyzed using the nonparametric Wilcoxon test among all groups.Diagnostic performance were analyzed among the groups with the three biomarkers independently and combined.Logistic regression, plotted ROC curve and calculated the area under ROC curve ( AUC) were applied to assess the diagnostic value of each index.Results Serum concentration of FER in PHC, cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis groups and healthy controls were 308.45 ( 148.98 -662.80 ) , 151.70 ( 51.44 -507.40 ) , 298.20 ( 157.30 -701.80 ) , 113.50( 54.98-221.38) μg/L, respectively.The concentration of AFP were 48.50(5.25 -748.40), 3.91(1.80-17.53), 4.76 (2.29-30.56), 2.57 (0.93-3.68) μg/L in each group.The serum levels of AFP-L3 in each group were 4.75(0.61-127.95), 0.61 (0.61-2.50), 0.61 (0.61-2.85), 0.61 (0.61-0.61) μg/L.The concentration of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 differs statistically in PHC, cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis group and healthy controls (χ2 =67.66,146.31,119.02,P<0.001).The content of serum FER, AFP and AFP-L3 increased gradually as the stage level aggravating ( StageⅠ-Ⅳ) , there was significant differences among groups (χ2 =21.63,22.68,21.98, P<0.001) .When using one serum marker, FER had the highest sensitivity (75.00%) , while AFP-L3 had the highest specificity (82.52%). While using two serum markers, FER/AFP had the highest sensitivity (89.15%) , FER+AFP-L3 and AFP+AFP-L3 had a higher specificity (86.20%).The combined detection of FER/AFP/AFP-L3 improved the sensitivity of the test to 89.15%, while FER+AFP+AFP-L3 had a specificity of 86.50%.The AUC of combination of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 was 0.803 ±0.019 (95% CI:0.765-0.841), which was higher than the AUC of either FER(0.748 ±0.022,95% CI:0.705-0.790, Z=4.67,P<0.001) and AFP-L3 (0.726 ±0.024,95% CI: 0.679 -0.772, Z=3.64,P<0.001).However, there was no significant difference in AUC between AFP alone ( 0.776 ±0.021, 95% CI: 0.735 -0.818 ) and the combined detection ( Z=1.34, P=0.18 ) .Conclusions FER was a potential marker for PHC diagnosis.The combination of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 has higher value of clinical applications than one of them independently.
