OBJECTIVE To study the staphylococcus infection and the drug resistance among the outpetients and the inpatients, and to provide information for the clinical treatment.METHODS To cultivate and isolate bacteria according to the Clinical Laboratory Operation Regulation.Bacteria were identified with the automated analyzer VITEK-60.made by Bio-Merieux Company in France.The drug susceptibility was one with the method of single split agar diffusion.RESULTS Totally 159 strains of Staphylococcus were isolated from the outpatients,(46.1%) of which were MRSA.Most of the infection were caused through genital tract;390 strains of(Staphylococcus) were(isolated) from the inpatients,87.1% of which were MRSA.Most of the infection were caused through respiratory tract.Most of MSSA resisted to penicillin,but MRSA were sensitive to vancomycin and(teicoplanin.) (CONCLUSIONS) Preventing the spread of the MRSA is very important to the control of the nosocomial(infection).As far as the infective situation,most of the outpatients are infected through genital tract;while most of the inpatients are infected through respiratory tract.As far as the drug susceptibility,vancomycin is the best antibiotics,the next is teicoplanin.It is necessary to use combined drugs for the MRSA infection.

Objective To investigate the effect of diosgenin tablet on interleukin-6 in the serum and artery of experimental atherosclerosis (AS) rats.Methods Sixty male SD rats were assigned randomly into five groups:group of sham operation (GSO,n =12),group of model (GM,n =12),group of Aspirin (GA,n =12),group of Diosgenin tablet in small dosage (GDS,n =12),and group of Diosgenin tablet in large dosage (GDL,n =12).After 7 days,the balloon-injured carotid artery angioplasty was performed except GSO.After 3 months,rats were killed.The rats' carotid arteries were stained with hematoxylin-eosin.Image analysis system was applied to measure the area of lumina and the thickness of wall to evaluate the ratio of W to L.Their blood IL-6 was detected.The expression of IL-6 in the aorta was measured with western blot.Results In the injured side,the W/L ratios of carotid artery in GDL and GDS(0.615±0.040、0.753±0.043)were much thinner than that of model group (0.803±0.043).That of GDL was thinner than GA (0.759±0.049).Compared with the model group (59.636±4.874)pg/ml,the level of serum IL-6 was decreased in GDL and GDS [ (42.582 ±4.724)pg/ml、(49.055 ±4.791) pg/rnl],GDL was much lower than GA[ (52.563 ±4.581) pg/ml].Western blot method showed that the levels of IL-6 in GDL and GDS (0.296±0.016、0.435±0.015)were significantly decreased compared with GM (0.455 ±0.026).GDL was significantly lower than GA (0.426±0.012).Conclusion Diosgenin can reduce the levels of serum and arteries IL-6 in the experiment atherosclerosis rats.

The level of the in vitro synthesis of secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) was determined by the sissue culture of the endoscopically biopsied gastric mucosa from patients with noncancerous gastric diseases. The amount of SIgA synthesis in chronic superficial gastritis (4.35?0.32?g/mg) and chronic atrophic gastritis (4. 82?0. 22ug/mg) was higher than that in the normal stomach (2.76?0.21 ?g/mg) (p

Objective To validate the association between genetic polymorphisms of nucleotide binding oligomerization domain 2 (NOD2) gene and the risk of tuberculosis in Chinese population.Methods A validation case-control study was performed with a total of 1043 pulmonary tuberculosis patients and 808 healthy controls.All controls had no history of tuberculosis or malignancy,and were matched with cases by sex and age.Genomic DNA from the peripheral blood samples of participant was extracted.Single nucleoside polymorphisms (SNP) of rs3135499,rs7194886,rs8057341,and rs9302752 in the NOD2 gene were genotyped using a TaqMan-based allelic discrimination system.The chi-square test was used to analyze categorical data and Logistic regression model was used to calculate the odds ratio (OR) and 95％ confidence interval (CI).Results When all patients as the cases were included in the analysis,no significant association was found between the four SNP of NOD2 gene and the risk of pulmonary tuberculosis.In a subgroup analysis by restricting cases to sputum culture positive patients,the variant genotypes of rs7194886 were significantly associated with an altered risk of tuberculosis.Compared with the CC genotype,individuals carrying the CT/TT genotype of rs7194886 had an increased risk (OR =1.35,95％ CI:1.05-1.72) for sputum culture positive tuberculosis.After adjusted for potential confounders,the increased risk of CT/TT genotype was still observed (OR=1.35,95％CI:1.05-1.73).Stratification analysis revealed that the effect of the SNP rs7194886 (CT/TT vs TT) was significant among men (OR=1.44,95％CI:1.08-1.92),individuals with age ＜55 years (OR=1.51,95％CI:1.05-2.16),smokers (OR=1.53,95％CI:1.07-2.18),and alcohol drinkers (OR=1.84,95％CI:1.01-3.33).But the heterogeneity test was not significant.Haplotype analysis showed that the rs9302752C-rs7194886T haplotype was associated with an increased risk of sputum culture positive tuberculosis (x2 =4.27,P=0.039).Conclusion In summary,genetic polymorphisms of rs7194886 in the NOD2 gene may be associated with the risk of pulmonary tuberculosis in the Chinese population.

Objective A prokaryotic expression vector was constructed by inserting the coding sequence of mouse sperm specific lactate dehydrogenase C into pET-28a(+)and the recombinant mLDHC44 protein was purified by Ni+-NTA agrose.Methods The cDNA of mouse sperm specific lactate dehydrogenase C was obtained by RT-PCR,with total RNA of mouse testis tissues as templates.The coding sequence of mouse LDHC4 was amplified by PCR with specific primers.This recombinant vector was transformed into Escherichia coli BL21(DE3).The recombinant mLDHC4 protein was induced by isopropy-?-D-thiogalactoside(IPTG)and identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide electrophoresis and LDH activity determination.After purified with Ni+-NTA agrose,the mLDHC4 protein was probed with antisera from the pVAX1-mLDHC4 vaccine(the eukaryotic expression vector of mouse sperm specific lactate dehydrogenase C)immunized BALB/c mice by Western blot analysis.Results After digested with BamH I-EcoR I,the recombinant plasmids produced right fragment which was about 1000bp.Sequencing showed that the sequence of the cloned fragment was in agreement with sequence in GenBank.This recombinant vector was named as pET-28a(+)-mLDHC4.With induction of IPTG,The recombinant protein with molecular weight of about 35 kD was expressed and the enzyme activity of this protein was high.After purified with Ni+-NTA agrose,this mLDHC4 protein formed a specific band by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide electrophoresis and probed with antisera from immunized BALB/c mice and then formed a specific band in the nitrocellulose membrane.Conclusion The coding sequence of mouse lactate dehydrogenase subunit C had been cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a(+)and the mLDHC4 protein could be expressed at a high level,the specificity of this protein was high and the activity was strong.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of simple myringoplasty with three different kinds of autologous substitutes. METHODS The patients (107 ears)with tympanic membrane perforation underwent myringoplasty using autologous temporal fascia, perichondrium or tragus cartilage-perichondrium compound. The postoperative healing effects and hearing levels of all cases were studied. RESULTS In healingeffects and hearing levels of the patients with small tympanic membrane perforation, there was no difference among the three kinds of autologous substitutes. Cartilage-perichondrium compound was much better for the patients with large tympanic membrane perforation in primary healing than temporalis fascia and perichondrium(P

Objective To investigate the effects of salvianolate on noradrenaline(NE), angiotension-Ⅱ(Ang-Ⅱ)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in rats with congestive heart failure. Methods Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups, the normal control group(NCG), the model group, the captopril group(CAG), the low dosage of salvianolate group(LSG), the high dosage of salvianolate group(HSG), the captopril and high doseage of salvianolate group(CSG). The rats of Congestive Heart Failure were established with peritoneal injection of adriamycin except the rats in normal control group. The rats in normal control group were injected with the equal volume of normal saline once per week for 6 weeks. The medication was started in every group at the same time. Eight weeks later, the Left Ventricular Systolic Pressure(LVSP), Left Ventricular End-diastolic Pressure(LVDP), +dp/dtmax, -dp/dtmax were measured. The serum levels of NE, Ang-Ⅱ and TNF-αwere measured. Protein expressions of Ang-Ⅱ and TNF-αin cardiac muscle were detected by Western blot. Results Compared with the model group[(90.77±14.75)mmHg, (22.52±2.58)mmHg, (3 290.16± 109.61)mmHg/s, (3 114.07±112.39)mmHg/s], HSG[(114.10±13.71)mmHg, (19.97±1.14)mmHg, (3 504.97 ± 163.94)mmHg/s, (3 303.02 ± 121.98)mmHg/s ] and CSG [ (141.18 ± 15.42)mmHg, (15.58 ± 1.46)mmHg, (3 766.56±159.93)mmHg/s, (3 566.70±154.57)mmHg/s]had significant difference in LVSP, LVDP, +dp/dtmax, -dp/dtmax(P<0.05 or 0.01). Compared with the model group[(85.06±9.07)ng/ml, (180.11±25.45)pg/ml, (205.80±15.73)pg/ml], the serum levels of NE, Ang-Ⅱand TNF-αwere decreased in groups of HSG[(75.33±8.60)ng/ml, (149.21±25.39)pg/ml, (188.84±13.79)pg/ml], CAG[(71.49± 6.21)ng/ml, (139.15 ± 24.83)pg/ml, (183.73 ± 10.99)pg/ml ] and CSG [ (60.02 ± 7.38)ng/m, (110.68 ± 28.63)pg/ml, (165.93±16.22)pg/ml]in different degree(P<0.05 or 0.01), those of CSG were significantly lower than CAG(P<0.05). Compared with the model group[(1.043±0.044), (1.167±0.048)], the expression of protein in Ang-Ⅱand TNF-α were decreased in groups of HSG[(0.981±0.024), (1.069±0.055)]CAG [(0.954±0.031), (1.046±0.053)]and CSG[(0.886±0.044), (0.955±0.038)]in different degree(P<0.05 or 0.01), those of CSG were significantly lower than CAG(P<0.05). Conclusion Salvianolate can reduce the serum levels of NE, Ang-Ⅱand TNF-αin rats with congestive heart failure, decrease the expression of Ang-Ⅱand TNF-αin its cardiac muscle, improve the cardiac function.

Liquid-assisted surface desorption atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (LA-DAPCI-MS)was used directly for the analysis of healthy rat liver (normal control group);acute alcoholic injury rat liver(alcohol model group)and Zhizi Dahuang decoction-treated rat liver (ZZDHD group)sections with the mass spectrometry images obtained simultaneously.Principal component analysis (PCA)was employed for the differentiation of livers of the groups;and 3 phospholipids;PC (34 ∶2);PC(36 ∶4)and PC(38 ∶4);were found to be the main factors.LA-DAPCI mass spectrometry images showed that the 3 phospholipids were evenly distrib-uted in liver under the spatial resolution of 0.01 mm2.Contents of 3 PCs in the model group were decreased in alcohol model group compared to the normal control group and the ZZDHD group;which revealed the relationship between acute alcoholic liver injury and intrahepatic phospholipid variation.The results showed that ZZDHD had protective effect on acute alcoholic liver injury-induced intrahepatic phospholipid variations at the molecular level.
