OBJECTIVE To understand the variance of antimicrobial resistance and the mutations of resistant genes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates in Haiyan area and to be helpful for infection therapy. METHODS For the patients with the positive smears of sputum, the M. tuberculosis was isolated from by sputum. The antimicrobial resistance of the isolates was detected by high and low concentration of antimicrobial agents method. The resistant-genes mutations of rpoB ane katG genes were detected by real-time PCR. RESULTS Among the 131 strains of clinical M. tuberculosis isolates, the total antimicrobial-resistant rate was 14.5%. In the patients after 2 month therapy, the total antimicrobial-resistant rate was 37.8%. The mutations of rpoB ane katG genes were 14.5% and 8.4% in the initially isolated strains, but 39.2% and 25.7% in the strains after 2 month therapy. CONCLUSIONS The drug-resistance of M. tuberculosis isolates in this area existsd before therapy of anti-infection, and,it can increase therapy time. It is important to detect the resistance and the resistant-genes mutations of the isolates.

Objective To investigate magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) characteristics of autoimmune pancreatitis(AIP) in middle-aged and elderly patients. Methods MRI were performed in 17 middle-aged and elderly patients with AlP proved histopathologically or clinically. All clinical and MRI data were reviewed. Results Of 17 cases, MRI showed diffuse enlargement of the pancreas in 13 cases, and focal lesions in 4 cases. Swelled pancreas was hypointense on T1-weighted images, mildly hyperintense on T2-weighted images, decreased enhancement on artery phase of dynamic imaging, and moderate enhancement on delayed phase images. Capsule-like enhanced rim was found around swelled pancreas in 13 patients. Stricture of distal common bile duct was present in 15 patients, and diffuse irregular narrowing of the main pancreatic duct was showed in 5 cases. The mean apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC) value of AIP was 1.64×10~(-3) mm~2/s in 13 cases. Conclusions AIP occurs more often in middle-aged and elderly people. AIP shows some characterized MRI findings including swelled pancreas looking like banana or sausage, delayed enhanced capsule-like rim around the lesion and diffuse irregular narrowing of pancreatic duct. MRI will play an important role not only in the diagnosis of AIP, but also in evaluating curative effect of AIP.

Objective To investigate the role of DWI in differentiating autoimmune pancreatitis ( AIP) from pancreatic cancer ( PC) , and in the therapeutic effect evaluation of AIP.Methods DWI data of 26 cases with AIP , 29 cases with PC and 30 cases with normal pancreas ( NP ) were analyzed retrospectively.The distribution type and signal feature of lesions in cases with AIP or PC were evaluated by Chi-squared test.ADC values were measured and compared among 3 groups by Kruskal-Wallis test.ADC values of AIP and PC were analyzed by using ROC curve to determine the optimal threshold and diagnostic efficiency.ADC values were compared in AIP ( n=15 ) before and after steroid therapy by paired t test.Results Diffuse lesions were detected in 21 cases with AIP and 3 cases with PC, while focal lesions in 5 cases with AIP and 26 cases with PC (χ2 =27.64, P<0.01).On DWI, most of AIP (n=19) and PC (n=24) showed hyper-intense signal, while a few of AIP (n=7) and PC (n =5) showed iso-intense signal (χ2 =0.75, P>0.05).The median ADC values of AIP, PC and NP were 1.15 ×10 -3,1.35 × 10 -3 ,1.59 ×10-3 mm2/s, respectively; and the difference was statistically significant ( H=45.60, P <0.01).ROC analysis yielded an optimal ADC cutoff value of 1.255 ×10 -3 mm2/s (80.8% sensitivity, 79.3%specificity and 0.871 area under curve for the diagnosis of AIP ).ADC values of AIP ( n=15) were markedly increased from the baseline (1.10 ±0.19) ×10 -3 to (1.57 ±0.12) ×10 -3 mm2/s after steroid therapy (t=-10.14, P<0.01).Conclusions DWI may be useful for diagnosing and evaluating the effect of steroid therapy in AIP.ADC values of AIP were significantly lower than those of pancreatic cancer and normal pancreas.After steroid therapy , ADC values were markedly increased in AIP.

Objective:
To analyze the potential categories and influencing factors of the compliance trajectory of orthokeratology lenses (OK lens) in myopic children and adolescents, so as to provide a basis for dynamic and accurate intervention of OK lens compliance in myopic children and adolescents.
Methods:
From January to June 2024, 310 myopic children and adolescents wearing OK lens were selected as research subjects from the Ophthalmology Medical Center of Cangzhou Central Hospital using a convenient sampling method. Data were collected at four time points: when the glasses were first fitted (T0), 2 weeks after fitting (T1), 1 month later (T2), 3 months later (T3), and 6 months later (T4). The data collection methods included general information questionnaires, compliance surveys for OK lens wearers, the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Self-report Version (BRIEF-SR), family support scales, and a self-made questionnaire on myopia control attitudes. A growth mixed model was used to identify the trajectory categories of compliance with OK lens wearing among myopic children and adolescents, and multiple Logistic regression analysis was employed to examine the influencing factors.
Results:
The compliance with OK lens among myopic children and adolescents were roughly divided into four developmental trajectories: C1 exemplary adherent (58 cases, 18.71%), C2 gradual progressor (130 cases, 41.94%), C3 fluctuating (85 cases, 27.42%), and C4 stubborn low follower (37 cases, 11.94%). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that, with C1 group as the reference, age (C3, OR = 0.74 ), parental education level (C4, OR =0.67), executive function (C2, OR =0.69; C4, OR =0.44), family support (C3, OR =0.75) and myopia control attitude (C2, OR =0.39) were all influencing factors for the compliance trajectory of OK lens; with C2 group as the reference, age (C3, OR = 0.55 ), parental education level (C3, OR =0.34; C4, OR =0.64), executive function (C3, OR =0.77), and family support (C4, OR =0.58) were all influencing factors for the compliance trajectory of OK lens; with C3 group as the reference, age (C4, OR = 0.68 ), and myopia control attitude (C4, OR =0.44) were both influencing factors for the compliance trajectory of OK lens ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
The compliance of wearing OK lens in children and adolescents with myopia can be roughly divided into four trajectories, and there is group heterogeneity. Dynamic and precise compliance intervention strategies should be given based on different trajectories and influencing factors.
