OBJECTIVE To investigate the characteristic of multidrug resistant organisms(MDROs) in hospital or community-acquired infection,so that it can approach effective infection management.METHODS Patients infected by Staphylococcus,Enterococcus,Escherichia coli,Klpneumoniae and A.baumanni were investigated in a Hospital from June 2008 to May 2009.RESULTS Among total 929 strains of bacilli from patients,367 were MDROs infection,the detection rate of MDROs,CA-MDROs or HA-MDROs was 39.5%,35.6% and 51.4% respectioety infection;The detection rate of MDROs from HAI patients was significantly higher than that from CAI patients(?2=19.2 P=0.00).There were differences between HA-MDROs and CA-MDROs in different departments.MRSA,ESBLs-kp And PDR-AB were isolated mostly from sputum of patients,and ESBLs E.coli mostly from urine of CAI patients.CONCLUSIONS It is important to analyze the characteristic of HA-MDROs or CA-MDROs in the treatment of infection or use of antibiotics from experience.MDROs control is full of difficulties as a result of high CA-MDROs rates.

BACKGROUND:Kalikrein 1 is an important component of the kalikrein-kinin system. Studies have shown that kalikrein can protect the cardiovascular system by promoting angiogenesis and inhibiting myocardial inflammation, but there is no report on its effect on inducing differentiation of stem cels. OBJECTIVE: To determine the transfection efficiency of kalikrein 1 adenoviral vector in rat bone mesenchymal stem cels. METHODS:Using adenovirus as a vector, the target gene kalikrein 1 was transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Fluorescence microscopy, MTT method and flow cytometry were used to investigate the effect of transfection and determine the optimal multiplicity of infection. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Adenovirus carrying kalikrein 1 was successfuly transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. Results from flow cytometry showed that the transfection efficiency was associated with the multiplicity of infection. When the multiplicity of infection was 150, the transfection efficiency was 80.8%. MTT results showed that when the multiplicity of infection was 200, the cel growth was inhibited remarkably. These findings indicate that adenovirus-mediated kalikrein 1 can be successfuly transfected into rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels with the optimal multiplicity of infection=150.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of Qingkailing (QKL) in cardiac muscle's injury induced by endotoxin and discuss the mechanism from the inflammatory factors expression and free radical metabolism. Methods A total of 48 male ICR mice were divided into normal group, model group, low dose group and high dose group, 12 mice in each group. The QKL(9 ml/kg) was administered via gavage daily for 4 days in low dose group, the QKL (18 ml/kg) was administered via gavage daily for 4 days in high dose group, the equivalent volume of saline was administered via gavage daily for 4 days in normal group and model group. At the fifth day all groups except normal group, received intraperitoneal injection of LPS 0.2 ml (40 mg/kg), and the normal group received equivalent volume of saline. Intragastric administrated again 0.5h, 8h and 20 h after the model establishment. We took blood from hearts 1 hour after the last administration. The QR-PCR was used to detect the expression of inflammatory factors. The Elisa was used to detect IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, MDA, SOD and GSH-Px. Results Compared to the model group, the content of TNF-α (68.75 ± 7.73 pg/ml, 62.03 ± 16.09 pg/ml vs. 116.06 ± 21.06 pg/ml), IL-1β (110.84 ± 40.61 pg/ml, 105.51 ± 38.21 pg/ml vs. 167.53 ± 54.82 pg/ml) and IL-6 (68.78 ± 20.57 pg/ml, 59.71 ± 13.59 pg/ml vs. 108.80 ± 28.21 pg/ml) in low dose group and high dose group were significantly decreased (P<0.01). The expression of TNFα mRNA (1.42 ± 0.15, 1.30 ± 0.46 vs. 3.00 ± 0.82),IL-1β mRNA (1.20 ± 0.57, 1.01 ± 0.40 vs. 2.32 ± 1.39) and IL-6 mRNA (1.53 ± 1.10, 1.16 ± 1.09 vs. 4.12 ± 2.23) in low dose group and high dose group were significantly decreased (P<0.01 or P<0.05). The content of MDA (10.64 ± 2.91 nmol/mg, 11.36 ± 3.02 nmol/mg vs. 15.21 ± 2.31 nmol/mg) in low dose group and high dose group were significantly decreased (P<0.01). The content of SOD (282.32 ± 35.90 U/mg, 325.07 ± 34.76 U/mg vs. 249.01 ± 45.22 U/mg) and GSH-Px (48.26 ± 17.13 U/g, 49.66 ± 22.11 U/g vs. 26.47 ± 20.37 U/g) in low dose group and high dose group were significantly increased (P<0.01). Conclusions The QKL plays a protective role in myocardial injury induced by endotoxemia. Its mechanism may be associated with down-regulation of expression of inflammatory factors, reducing free radicals and improvement of antioxidation.
