A new molecular method for simultaneously rapid detection and differentiation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium bovis, Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium paratuberculosis was established by using denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) combined with multiplex nucleic acid amplification. These 4 important pathogenic mycobacteria were identified by separation of 4 specific PCR-amplified target fragments by DHPLC analysis. A total of 51 Mycobacterium strains and 22 other bacterial species were tested to confirm the specificity of the multiplex PCR-DHPLC assay. The sensitivity of the assay was as low as 10~2-10~3 gene copies. This method rapidly identify the positive clinical samples from human and bovine with higher detection ratio than traditional culture method and was able to identify simultaneously four pathogenic Mycobacterium, which provided a new molecular tool for rapid detection of tuberculosis and paratuberculosis in human and animals.

Objective To explore the clinical feasibility and safety of early intervention for severe stenosis of non-infarct related artery(non-IRA)in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI) and multi-vessel disease(MVD)after successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)for infarct-asso-ciated artery(IRA). Methods From May 1st,2011 to December 30th,2016,165 patients with STEMI and MVD were enrolled in our study. After the completion of primary PCI in IRA ,75 patients still in the hospital agreed to undergo a second staged PCI in severe stenosis of non-infarct arteries. We analyzed the in-hospital adverse events ,the length of hospital stay and clinical outcomes during the follow-up in the study population. Results There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between the two groups during hos-pitalization. However,compared to patients treated with the IRA-only PCI,those treated with early intervention for severe stenosis of non-IRA was associated with greater benefits for clinical outcomes(including rehospitalization for heart failure,rehospitalization for ACS,recurrent angina pectoris,necessity for reintervention)during the follow-up except for the all-cause mortality. Conclusion Early intervention for severe stenosis of non-IRA is a feasible and safe procedure in patients with acute STEMI and MVD after successful primary PCI.

The global coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic is still in a pandemic state. Aging population with underlying diseases is prone to become severe, and have a higher mortality. The treatment capacity of the critical care department directly determines the treatment success rate of critical illness. At present, there is still a certain gap between domestic and foreign countries in intensive care unit (ICU), which is not only in the allocation of medical staff, but also in the beds and settings. The current medical model cannot fully meet the needs of development. The experience and lessons of many major public health emergencies suggested that " dual track of peace and war" approach in discipline construction of critical care is the best medical model. Following the concept of "combination of peace and war", strengthening the discipline construction of critical care department in municipal and district designated hospitals, allocating reasonable standard ICU, step-down ICU and combat readiness ICU, establishing rapid response team, and strengthening regular training and scientific management may be the key measures to deal with the epidemic.

Objective:
To investigate the diagnosis and management of laryngeal cleft.
Method:
The clinical data of 13 cases of laryngeal cleft treated between 2007 and 2015 was analyzed retrospectively.
Results:
The children with laryngeal cleft were classified according to the classification of Benjamin-Inglis, as type Ⅰ(11 cases), typeⅡ(1 case) and type Ⅲ(1 case). All patients were confirmed by microlaryngobronchoscopy under general anaesthetic. Eleven typeⅠ and 1 type Ⅱ clefts were managed conservatively, with which all type Ⅰ patients were successfully managed, while the type Ⅱ patient was resolved by surgical endoscopy. The type Ⅲ patient was treated by open repair but the results was poor.
Conclusions
Patients who suffered with choking on feeding or recurrent aspiration pneumonia, especially coexisted with other congenital malformation, needed detailed evaluation for laryngeal cleft, although which was a rare congenital abnormality. Electronic laryngoscope could be the first step to screen the cleft, while microlaryngobronchoscopy is the gold standard for diagnosis of laryngeal cleft. The majority of children with lower type clefts can be managed conservatively. Surgical endoscopy has high success rate when strictly following the indication. Type Ⅲ and Ⅳ clefts have high mortality for usually combining with severe complications and abnormalities.
