Aim To study the change of mutant pre- vention concentration (MPC) in carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) treated with moxi- floxacin ( MFX ) and/ or cefoperazone/ sulbactam (CFS) in vitro, and provide a theoretical support for preventing the bacterial resistance. Methods To cal- culate the fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) in- dex, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 20 clinical isolates of CRAB treated with MFX and/ or CFS was determined by checkerboard microdilution as- say. In addition, to calculate the selection index (SI), the MPC of 20 clinical isolates of CRAB treated with MFX and/ or CFS was determined by agar plate di- lution assay. Results Our study showed that there was synergistic/ addictive action, rather than antago- nism action against clinical isolates of CRAB when treated with MFX + CFS. The SI of the 20 isolates trea- ted with MFX or CFS alone was 4 ~128 and 8 ~64 re- spectively, but reduced to 1 ~8 and 4 ~16 when trea- ted with MFX + CFS, which decreased by 2 ~16 and 2 ~4 times respectively compared with the single treat- ment. Conclusion These results suggest that the combination treatment of MFX + CFS against clinical isolates of CRAB might lower the MPC of the isolates treated with MFX/ CFS alone, narrow the mutant selec- tion window, and prevent the generation of drug - re- sistant mutants.

Inflammation and lung function decline are the main pathophysiological features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Acupuncture can improve lung function in patients with COPD, but the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Orexins (OXs), which are found in peripheral plasma, are neuropeptides that regulate respiration and their levels are related to COPD. Therefore, we hypothesized that acupuncture might alter OXs, reduce lung inflammation and improve lung function in COPD.

Objective:To recognize the characteristics of necrotizing fasciitis patients complicated with sepsis and summarize the experience the treatment.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted. The clinical data of 57 patients with necrotizing fasciitis complicated with sepsis admitted to Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from July 2009 to December 2019 was analyzed by collecting such factors as gender, age, complications, infection sites, pathogens, surgery information, treatment options and outcome. The patients were divided into debridement group ( n = 14) and control group ( n = 43) according to whether the debridement was completed within 48 hours of admission, and the mortality during hospitalization between the two groups was compared. A telephone follow-up had been done to record the long-term outcome of these patients. Results:Among 57 patients with necrotizing fasciitis complicated with sepsis, there were 43 males and 14 females with the average age of (57.9±12.1) years old. Most of the underlying diseases were diabetes mellitus (70.17%), other diseases included hypertension (8.77%), tumor chemotherapy (7.02%), liver disease (hepatitis, cirrhosis, 7.02%), coronary artery heart disease (3.51%), systemic lupus erythematosus (3.51%), etc. Most of the infection site was lower limbs (71.93%). There were 78 pathogens cultured in 57 patients, in which 52 were non-drug resistant bacteria (66.67%), and 26 were drug resistant bacteria (33.33%). There were 40 Gram positive (G +) bacteria (51.28%), 29 Gram negative (G -) bacteria (37.18%), 8 fungi (10.26%) and 1 mixed bacteria (1.28%). Finally, of 57 patients, 46 patients were cured, and 11 patients died with hospital mortality of 19.30%. Among 57 patients, the hospital mortality in the debridement group was significantly lower than that in the control group [0% (0/14) vs. 25.58% (11/43), P < 0.05]. Among the 46 cured patients, 11 had accepted amputations, accounting for 23.91%. In December 2020, 43 patients who were cured (3 patients were lost to follow-up) were followed up by telephone. Twenty-three patients were completely self-care, 9 patients were partly self-care, 8 patients were completely unable to take care of themselves, and 3 patients died. Conclusions:Necrotizing fasciitis with sepsis mostly occurs in people with weakened immunity, and has a high mortality and disability rate. Early identification and active surgical debridement may be the key to improve the treatment effect.
