Objective To study the drug resistance of neonatal sepsis caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae and provide evidence for drug treatment. Method Retrospectively analysis was conducted on the clinical data and antibiotic resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae in 50 neonates with sepsis. Results The majority of the 50 cases were infected in hospital. There were 13 ESBLs strains in 50 Klebsiella pneumoniae strains (26%), and the others were negative ESBLs starins (74%). All the strains were multidrug-resistance to the β-lactam antibiotics and only sensitive to few antibiotics such as Imipenem and Amikacin. The sensitive rate was 100%. Conclusions The first selected antibiotic for the treatment of neonatal sepsis caused by Klebsiella pnemoniae was Imipenem or Amikacin.

Objective&Methods The mutagenicity of natural Borneol and synthetic Borneol was studied by using Ames test.Results Natural Borneol and Synthetic Borneol in the dose range of 0.4～250.0 ?g/plate had no effect in reducing the reversion frequencies of Salmonella Typhimurium histidine auxotrophic mutant(TA97,TA98,TA100,TA102)whether if metabolic activation system(S9mix)existed or not.Moreover,the backward mutant colony had normal background.Conclusion Natural Borneol and Synthetic Borneol do not possess evident mutagenicity under experimental condition.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of transcatheter closure of atrial septal defect (ASD) and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) using Amplatzer occluder. Methods Routine cardiac catheterization and angiography were performed in 50 patients (23 male, 27 female, age ranging from 3 to 64 years old), including 19 cases of ASD and 31 cases of PDA under local or general anesthesia. After balloon sizing of the ASD, the optimal Amplazter septal occluder (ASO) was transmitted into the left atrial, and the left and right disks were released in turn. The Amplatzer occluder was completely released after transthoracic echocardiography confirmed that there was no residual shunts or new onset mitral valve regurgitation. The Amplatzer duct occluder (ADO) size was selected according to the narrowest point of PDA measured by angiography, and the occluder was released after the repeated angiography showed no residual shunts. Results ① The mean diameter of the ASD measured by balloon was 13-31 (23?6) mm and the diameter of ASO was (17-40) mm. The immediate closure rate was 100%. ② Angiography confirmed that closure of the ductus using ADO was achieved in 30 patients, and closure of the large size (12 mm) was achieved in 1 case of PDA patient using ASO (17 mm). No complications were encountered. Conclusion Transcatheter closure of ASD and PDA using Amplatzer device, with the advantages of simple operation, confirmative occlusion efficacy, minimal invasiveness, wide indications, and less complications, has a bright future of clinical application.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is a highly pathogenic virus that can cause acute intestinal infectious diseases in both piglets and fattening pigs. The virus encodes at least 16 non-structural proteins, including nsp9, which has been shown to bind to single-stranded RNA. However, its function and mechanism remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to identify potential host proteins that interact with PEDV nsp9 using immunoprecipitation combined with mass spectrometry. The interactions were then confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) and confocal laser scanning fluorescence techniques. The results showed that nsp9 interacts with HSPA8, Tollip, HSPA9 and TOMM70. Among them, overexpression of HSPA8 resulted in caused first upregulated and then down-regulated expression of nsp9, and promoted the proliferation of PEDV. Overexpression of Tollip significantly upregulated the expression of nsp9 and inhibited the proliferation of PEDV. Overexpression of TOMM70 significantly reduced the expression of nsp9, but did not show significant effect on the proliferation of PEDV. Overexpression of HSPA9 did not show significant effect on the expression of nsp9 and the proliferation of PEDV. These findings may facilitate further investigating the role of nsp9-interacting proteins in PEDV infection.

African swine fever virus (ASFV) infection leads to a mortality rate of up to 100%, causing devastating disasters to the pig industry. Understanding the ASFV infection and replication is therefore of great importance. ASFV has more than 150 open reading frames, among which the inner coat protein p17 encoded by the D117L gene is involved in the formation of the icosahedral structure of the virus. However, little is known about the mechanism how p17 regulates host cell function. In this study, the potential host proteins interacting with ASFV p17 were screened by immunoprecipitation technique combined with protein profiling analysis. The interactions of p17 with mitochondrial membrane protein TOMM70 and heat shock protein HSPA8 were confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation technique and laser confocal experiments. This study provides important information for further exploring the function of p17 during ASFV infection.
