Objective To Screen the carbapenem-resistant acinetobacter baumannii so as to understand the drug resistance,and to analyze the outer membrane protein expression between the carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and the sensitive strains.Methods The twofold agar dilution method was used to screen the carbapenem-resistant acinetobacter baumannii.PCR technique was used to detect the outer membrane protein-encoding gene carO.SDS-PAGE was used to analyze the expression of outer membrane protein.Results 32 strains were carbapenem-resistant acinetobacter baumannii separated from 1 10 strains,which were 100% sensitive to polymyxin B and were resistant to other drugs with different degrees O.They all carried carO gene.There were different protein bands between the carbapenem-resistant strains and the sensitive strains,in which two protein bands of 50× 10 3 and 22×10 3 were recognized as outer membrane proteins through the analysis of SDS-PAGE.Conclusion Drug resistance of acinetobacter baumannii is serious,and the outer membrane protein expression between the carbapenem-resistant strains and the sensitive strains presents discrepancy.

Objective Implanting surgical meshes to support breast in periareoler mammaplasty shows an excellent prospect.But shrinking of the mesh and the adhesion formation affected the postoperative shape and palpation of the breast.The aim of this study was to compare biocompatible properties of four different polypropylene meshes (Prolene(R) ; Vypro Ⅱ(R) ; Premilene Mesh (R) and Premilene Mesh LP(R)) and to discuss the inclusion criteria of meshes in this technique.Methods The study was carried out in pigs.Four different polypropylene meshes were implanted subcutaneously in belly.90 days after implantation the mesh samples were explanted,and complications,foreign-body reaction,collagen fiber and elastic fiber formation were observed,as well as ultrastructures for the biocompatible properties.Results The biocompatible properties of each mesh were different.The foreign-body reactions determined the biocompatible properties,and affected the postoperative shape greatly.Conclusions Premilene Mesh LP o as a newer low-weight polypropylene mesh,has superior properties to the others.

Objective To investigate the correlation of cochlear injury and expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax in the cochlea of diabetic rats.Methods Thirty five Wistar rats were randomly divided into diabetic group(n=25) and control group(n=10).Diabetic deafness was induced in rats by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin,while the rats in normal group were injected with normal saline.Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the protein levels of Bcl-2 and Bax in the cochlea after 3 months.Results No significantly morphological change in cochlea of diabetic rats was found.The Bcl-2 levels in stria vascularis in diabetic group and control group were 135.32?21.69 and 45.32?9.08,respectively,there was significant difference(P

0.05).IHC loss was found under hypoxia for 2 h to 48 h in a time dependent manner,the cell density in unit area had remarkable difference compared with control(P

BACKGROUND: Infusion of hemopoietic stem cell from donors can promote the chimeric formation and induce specific immunologic tolerance in the allograft recipients. However, the pretreatment for cell transplantation has great toxicity to recipients. So immunosuppressant combined bone marrow infusion is introduced to anti graft versus host reaction. OBJECTIVE: Based on microchimerism, to study the security and associativity of chimera formation induced by kidney-bone marrow transplantation and immunologic tolerance.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The contrast observation was performed at the department of urinary surgery, The Third People's Hospital of Zhengzhou City from January 1998 to December 2005.PARTICIPANTS: According to ABO/Rh blood type and HLA matching, 96 female patients with chronic renal failure and waiting for kidney transplantation were divided into 2 groups, In the combination group, patients received kidney combined bone marrow transplantation; the other uremia patients received the other kidney of cadavers were served as control group. The donors were 48 healthy males. METHODS: Bone marrow of donors was collected simultaneously with kidney obtain and preserved with cryoprotectant at -198 ℃ in nitrogen canister. After kidney transplantation, large dose of anti-human lymphocyte immune globulin were used for 2 weeks, then (0.9-2.5)×10~8/kg mononuclearcell was reinfused. PCR-SRY was used to identify donor derived cell-chimerism. Lymphocyte subgroup of recipients was determined by blood test; and interleukin 10 was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay; in addition, the mass concentration of tumor necrosis factor α and tumor necrosis factor β was detected. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Chimerism, lymphocyte subsets and cytokines were detected at various time points following transplantation. Simultaneously, the transplantation results and complication status of recipients were observed. RESULTS: The positive rate of chimera in the combination group was greater than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The 3-year follow-up showed that incidence differences of acute rejection between recipients with positive chimera and recipients with negative chimera had significance (13%, 35%, P < 0.05). There was no graft versus host disease occurred in the combination group. CONCLUSION: Kidney-bone marrow transplantation can augment chimerism in early postoperative period, and significantly reduce the rate of acute rejection, which is safe and beneficia1to induce specific immunologic tolerance in the renal allograft recipients.

Objectives To explore the optimal startup time of patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) in aged patients after thoracotomy for pulmonary lobectomy.Methods The 67 aged patients after thoracotomy for pulmonary lobectomy from January to December 2008 were randomized divided into two groups:PCIA was startup immediately after waking (instantly group) or after removal tracheal intubation (delayed group).The analgesia efficacy,cardiopulmonary function and side effect were evaluated at the awake time,12,24 and 48 hours after surgery respectively.Result Both of VAS scores at 12 hours after surgery and oxygenation index at 48 hours after surgery had significant difference (P<0.05) between the two groups.The analgesia efficacy was better in the instantly group.There was no significant difference on the duration of mechanical ventilation and side-effect rates between the two groups.No patient suffered from respiratory depression.Conclusion The early use of PCIA in aged patients after thoracotomy for pulmonary lobectomy can gain better pain control and oxygenation effect.

Objective:To study the methods of early qualitative diagnosis of laryngeal displasia and earlycarcinoma. Methods:We investigated displasia (34 cases),squamous cell carcimoa (19 cases) and vocalcord polyps (17 cases) of larynx which were embeded in paraffin by PCR－SSCP analysis of p53 gene,im－munochemi stain of p53 protein and Ⅳ collagen,cytometer (determining fraction of cell cycle) and AgNORstain. Results :Eleven of 34 cases of displasia were all positive in the indexes. Seven of 11 cases were alsopositive in pathology,but others were negative. Five of 34 cases of displasia were all negative in the index-es,2 of 5 cases were positive and 1 of 5 cases were negative,other two cases did not have following-up re-sults in pathology. Conclusion :The results suggest that it is the combination of the morphological indexeswith biological indexe that is more scientific and more accurate in quatitative diagnosis of premalignantchange.

BACKGROUND: Heal-all oral biofilm is a material utilized in repairing oral mucosa and soft tissues defects and characterized by degradation, easily preparation, long preserved duration, convenient transportation and good ossification, which has been widely used in dental implant as guided bone regeneration materials.OBJECTIVE: To check the clinical effective of Heal-all oral biofllm on guided bone regeneration in dental implant.METHODS: A total of 72 patients with bone defects in the implantation area were selected as subjects, who were divided into control group and experimental group at random. Bone defects around implants were repaired by guided bone regeneration technique with BME-10X medical collagen membrane and Heal-all oral biofilm respectively. X-ray and clinical examination were taken at 1 and 3 months after implantation. The amount of new.formed bone tissue was evaluated when stage Ⅱ operation was performed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In stage Ⅱ operation, osseointegration was formed between implants and bone tissue in all 72 patients. The average rate of bone formation was 92% in the experimental group while 91% in the control group. All implants were successfully repaired with implant denture. Occlusal function was restored successfully with all 72 implants during the follow-up period of 3-24 months after restoration. As an alternative option of BME-10X medical collagen membrane, Heal-all oral biofilm can be used in guided bone formation clinically.
