The anti-varicella-zoster virus (VZV) antibody titers were determined with the method of enzyme linked SPA in sera from 68 patients with herpe, zoster(HZ) and in sera from 35 controls. The results were as follows: In the first week after the onset of HZ, the VZV antibody titers were low in the majority of patients and there was a positive correlation with the severity of patient's pain, but no correlation with patient's age. The titers of VZV antibody were markedly elevated during the 2nd and 3rd week after disease onset, and in this period, there was a positive correlation with patient's age and severity of pain, i. e. higher titers of VZV antibody were usually found in older patients with more severe pain. In patients without postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), the titers of VZV antibody almost returned to normal level in 6 months after HZ episode, but in patients with PHN, the titers of this antibody still remained in high level after 1 to 2 years, which showed that there was a close relation between the PHN and VZV antibody. The VZV antibodies in control group were negative or within normal range.

Objective To observe effects of angieminⅡ(AngⅡ)and captopril on outward potassium channel currents in canine atrial myoeytes,and to study mechanisnof Ang II and capupril on atrial arrhythmia.Method Ten healthy adult mongrel dogs(general class),weighing 15 to 20 kg,male and female informality,were provided bythe service centre of Tianjin Li-qun experimental animals.Single canine atrial myotcyte was acutely isolated and whole-cell configtmtion of the patch-clamp tchnique was used to detec trapidly activating delayed reefifier outward K+ current(Ikr),slowly activating delayed recti fier outward K+ current(Iks),ultra-rapidly aetivatin delayed rectifier outward K+ current(Ikur)and transient outward potassium current(Ito)before and after An II and captopril peffion.Software of pClamp 7.0 for windows and pClampfit 7.0 Was used to measure current and data were expressed as mean±standard deviation(x±s).SPSS 10.0 statistical was used for statistical analysis.The paired t test was useel for comparison betwn before and after treatment.P<0.05 was comidered as statistical significance.Results AngII(0.5/mol/L)increased Ikr and Iks,ilfibited Ito[(19.54±2.41)pA/pF vs.(24.83±2.52)pA/pF,P=0.001;(20.69±2.29)pA/pF Vfl.(25.59±3.42)pA/pF,P:0.0003;(6.34±1.93)pA/pF vs.(3.71±1.50)pA/pF,P=0.001)],and had no effect on k[(19.78±1.22 pA/pr Vs.(20.39±1.50)pA/pF,P=0.258)].Captopril(5tot/L)had no significant effect on Ikr.,b.k and[(19.11 4-4.91)pA/pF vs.(18.99 4-4.04)-∥pF,P=0.808;(20.76 4-2.89)pA/pF vs.(20.27 a-3.46)pA/pF,P=0.305;(18.50 4-3.78)pA/pF vs.(18.25 4-4.02)pA/pF,P=0.704;(7.31±1.99)pA/pF vs.(6.89±2.12)pA/pF,P=0.136)].Conclusioas AngⅡmay promote atrial electrical remocof atrial fibrillation through outward potassium currents.As angiotemin-eonverting enzy/ne inhibitor.captioruk can prevent atrial electrical rodding of atrial fibrillation by inhibiting renin-angiotensin-system.

Objective To analyze the distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility of the pathogenic isolates during 2009-2014 for rational use of clinical antibiotics.Methods The clinical data were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively to examine the distribution and resistance profile of the pathogenic isolates.Strain identification and antimicrobial susceptibility test were conducted by BioMerieux VITEK-2 automatic microbiology analyzer and the associated identification cards.All results were interpreted according to CLSI standards.Results A total of 6 393 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated during the six-year period.The top three pathogens were Escherichia coli (33.6 ％),Enterococcus faecalis (19.4 ％),and Streptococcus agalactiae (13.7 ％).In addition,8,1,and 10 strains ofListeria spp.were isolated in 2009,2010,2014,respectively.A total of 40 strains of anaerobic bacteria had been isolated since 2012.The isolates were mainly from genital tract (53.7 ％) and uterine cavity (21.3 ％),followed by blood stream (8.2 ％),including venous blood samples (6.1％) and umbilical cord blood samples (2.2 ％).There were 165 (2.6 ％) cases of surgical site infections.Escherichia,Enterococcus,and Streptococcus were the top three bacteria isolated from both uterine cavity and venous blood samples.The top three bacteria isolated from surgical sites were Escherichia,Enterococcus,and Staphylococcus.The bacteria isolated from umbilical cord blood samples were mostly Streptococcus,Escherichia,and Enterococcus.Anaerobic bacteria were mainly isolated from blood samples,which accounted for 82.5 ％ of all anaerobic bacteria.Listeria monocytogenes isolates were mainly from venous blood samples or uterine cavity.Overall,the antimicrobial susceptibility profile of the pathogenic isolates was relatively stable during the period from 2009 to 2014.Most antibiotics showed good activity against these isolates.Conclusions The pathogens isolated from this gynecology and obstetrics hospital during 2009-2014 period are mainly Escherichia coli,Enterococcusfaecalis,and Streptococcus agalactiae.Most isolates were susceptible to the commonly used antimicrobial agents.In addition to a few MRSA strains,ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli isolates were the main multidrug resistant organisms.

Objective To prohc into the distinguished feature of postoperation of early inflammatory intesti- nal and the principle of diagnosis and treatment.Methods 23 cases of early intestinal postoperatively treated during the year of 2003 to 2005 were analysed.Results In the 23 cases,20 of them were treated conservatively while 3 of them were treated operatively,both of which were recovered and dischanged from hospital.Conclusion The early inflammatory intestinal postoperatively is a kind of special one in which both mechanical factor and dynamic factor could be found.Most of the patients could be cured by conservative way and they should surely be in closed observa- tion of the condition in order to be handled properly.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Acupotomy on spastic cerebral palsy. Methods105 cases of spastic cerebral palsy were random divided into group A (35 cases with acupotomy), group B (34 cases with physical therapy) and group C (36 cases with acupotomy and physical therapy). Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) was used to assess spasticity before and a month after therapy. ResultsEffective rate of group A was 65.71%, group B was 29.41%, group C was 77.78%, which of group B was significantly lower than those of group A of C. ConclusionAcupotomy can reduce muscular tension of spastic cerebral palsy, which seems more effective than physical therapy.

Purpose　The aim is to compare the sterols in Hericium crinaceus ethanol extract and water extract from solid fermented hyphae and to study the pharmaceutical chemical basis of the different medicinal effects. Methods　The nonsaponifiable lipids were isolated by saponification.The sterols were then detected by TLC and RP-HPLC.Results　The content of sterols in ethanol extract was found to be higher than that in water extract.And one type of sterols from Hericium erinaceus hyphae was identified as ergosterol.Conclusion　Due to ergosterol′s multifunction in biological activities,it may well be one of the active components of hyphae.And higher content of lipids, especially sterols may be one of the reasons for the better medicinal effect of ethanol extract than water extract.
