Objective To analyze the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens for bacterial infection after lung transplantation,so as to provide evidence for clinical prophylactic strategies postoperation and reasonable use of antibiotics.Method The bacterial distribution and drug resistance of 81 recipients after lung transplantation in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed from May 2009 to October 2012.The VITEK-32 full-automatic microbial identification system (Biomerieux,France)and its supplementary reagent were used for bacterial identification and drug sensitive test.The data were statistically analyzed by using the software SPSS 13.0.Result There were 67 cases of bacterial infection in the 81 recipients after lung transplantation and the infection rate was 82.72％ (67/81).The infection was caused by one kind of bacteria in 20 patients,two kinds of bacteria in 23 patients and multiple bacteria in 24 patients.157 strains pathogenic bacteria were produced,and the grampositive bacilli and the gram-negative bacilli accounted for 12.74％ and 87.26％ respectively.The most common pathogens for the bacterial infection were Acinetobacter baumannii,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Stenotrophomonasmaltophilia,Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.Most of the bacterial infections occurred in the early period (≤1 month) after lung transplantation and most non-fermentative bacterial pathogens were resistant to multi-antibiotics.Conclusion The bacterial infection rate is high after lung transplantation.The rational use of antibiotics in clinical practice should be adjusted according to the bacterial distribution and drug resistance.

Objective To determine the effect of signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) gene silencing by shRNA mediated by lentiviral vector for the treatment of colorectal cancer. Methods The recombinant lentiviral vector pRNAT-shSTAT3, empty lentiviral vector pRNAT-GFP, and lentiviral packaging plasmids in supernatant were collected to transfect HT-29 cells for harvesting the HT-29-shSTAT3 cells and HT29-GFP cells. Fifteen male rats were divided into three groups (n = 5 ), and then they were inoculated with HT-29cells, HT-29-GFP cells and HT-29-shSTAT3 cells, respectively. Cell growth was assessed by MTT assay and the changes in cell cycle were detected by flow cytometry. The changes in microvessel density (MVD) of tumors were detected by immunohistochemistry. All data were analysed by one-way analysis of variance. Results The growth of HT-29-shSTAT3 cells was significantly suppressed compared with HT-29 and HT-29-GFP cells (F = 632.50,P ＜ 0. 05 ). The proportions of cells at the G0/G1 phase were 68.7% ± 2.9% in HT-29-shSTAT3 cells, 38.5% ±1.6% in HT-29-GFP cells and 38.7% ± 2.3% in HT-29 cells, with a significant difference among the three groups (F = 166.53, P ＜ 0.05 ). The MVDs of HT-29 cells, HT-29-GFP cells and HT-29-shSTAT3 cells were 29 ±5, 28 ±4 and 10 ±3, respectively, with a significant difference among the three groups (F=31.60, P ＜0.05). Conclusion STAT3 gene silencing by shRNA mediated by lentiviral vector can significantly inhibit the growth of colorectal cancer cells.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of Vater ampulla-duodenal conjunction resection in the treatment of periampullary carcinoma. Methods From January 2005 to July 2006, 15 patients underwent this modus operandi, including carcinoma of duodenal papilla (6 cases), Vater ampulla (5 cases) and lower part of common bile duct (4 cases). The descending part of duodenum, Vater ampulla, head of pancreas and common bile duct were excised en bloc followed by reconstruction of GI conduit. Result One patient died of stress ulcer 2 months postoperatively, the 14 patients recovered uneventfully without any major complications, and 3-16 months follow-up found no tumor recurrence. Conclusion Vater ampulla-duodenal conjunction resection as a new surgical procedure provides enough tumor margin clearance while causing less trauma than standard pancreatoduodenectomy in selected cases of periampullary carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the adrenal steroidogenic function in genotype-proven heterozygotes carrying mutations in CYP17A1 gene in vivo. Methods Eight patients and 14 family members from 5 families with 17-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase deficiency (17OHD) were recruited. The mutations of the CYP17A1 gene in these individuals were screened by direct sequencing of PCR products. The hormonal response to ACTH was evaluated in the 14 genotype-proven carriers and 45 age- and sex-matched normal subjects. Results Three mutations were found in 5 unrelated families. 14 carriers with CYP17A1 mutation were identified, including 7 heterozygotes with D487_F489del, 6 with Y329fs, and 1 for H373L. Compared to the normal subjects, the carriers exhibited lower basal and ACTH-stimulated cortisol levels, but higher ACTH-stimulated corticosterone level. The ratios of corticosterone to cortisol in the genotype-proven heterozygotes were higher than those of normal individuals at baseline and following ACTH-stimulation. Similarly, progesterone level and ratios of progesterone to 17-hydroxyprogesterone in the male heterozygotes were also higher than that of normal individuals before and after stimulation. No significant differences were observed in the hormone levels between two genotypes (D487_F489del vs Y329fs). Conclusions Genotype-proven carriers of 17OHD without apparent clinical symptoms exhibit decreased enzyme activity,analogous to mildly impaired adrenal 21-hydroxylase activity in the carriers of CYP21 A2 gene mutation.

Objective:To compare the influence of single and staged percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on long-term prognosis in patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease.Methods:Using prospective research methods, 1 832 patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease from January to December 2013 in Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were selected. According to the time of PCI, the patients were divided into single PCI group (1 218 cases) and staged PCI group (614 cases). The patients were followed up for 2 years, the primary endpoint was major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event (MACCE), including target vessel-related myocardial infarction (TV-MI), target vessel-related revascularization (TVR), cardiogenic death and stroke, and the secondary endpoint was stent thrombosis. The propensity score matching (PSM) was applied to balance the discrepancies between 2 groups, and the baseline and follow-up data were compared. The Kaplan-Meier survival curves were drawn to evaluate the survival rates events; multifactor Cox proportional risk regression was used to analyze whether staged PCI was an independent risk factor for the endpoint events.Results:The in-hospital stay, duration of procedure and synergy between percutaneous coronary intervention with taxus and cardiac surgery (SYNTAX) score in single PCI group were significantly lower than those in staged PCI group: (5.54±3.09) d vs. (9.50±4.06) d, (43.12±28.55) min vs. (79.54±44.35) min, (14.04±7.63) scores vs. (18.51±7.79) scores, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical difference in complete revascularization rate and SYNTAX score after PCI between 2 groups ( P>0.05). Based on 2-year follow-up, the incidences of TV-MI and stent thrombosis in staged PCI group were significantly higher than those in single PCI group: 2.1% (13/614) vs. 0.5% (6/1 218) and 2.0% (12/614) vs. 0.4% (5/1 218), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Kaplan-Meier survival curves analysis results showed that the event-free survival rates of TV-MI and stent thrombosis in single PCI group were better than those in staged PCI group (99.5% vs. 97.9% and 99.6% vs. 98.0%, P<0.01). Multifactor Cox proportional risk regression analysis results showed that staged PCI was an independent risk factor for stent thrombosis ( HR = 3.91, 95% CI 1.25 to 12.18, P = 0.019). After PSM, the incidences of TV-MI and stent thrombosis in staged PCI group were significantly higher than those in single PCI group: 2.1% (13/614) vs. 0.7% (4/614) and 2.0% (12/614) vs. 0.5% (3/614), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05); Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis results showed that the event-free survival rates of TV-MI and stent thrombosis in single PCI group were significantly higher than those in staged PCI group: (99.3% vs. 97.9% and 99.5% vs. 98.0%, P<0.05); multifactor Cox proportional risk regression analysis results showed that staged PCI was not an independent risk factor of stent thrombosis ( HR = 2.29, 95% CI 0.58 to 9.00, P = 0.234). Both before and after PSM, there were no evidences for interaction between the type of angina pectoris and staged PCI ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Although a seemingly increase exists in the incidence of TV-MI and stent thrombosis in the staged PCI group, staged PCI is an independent risk factor neither for MACCE and its components, nor for stent thrombosis. In addition single PCI reduces the in-hospital days and duration of PCI procedure, which may be a relatively reasonable approach to clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate effect of Mycobacterium tuberculosis BCG-infected macrophages on damage and repair of renal tubular epithelial cells during development of renal tuberculosis.Methods:A co-culture model of BCG-infected M0 macrophages(upper chamber)and HK-2 cells(lower chamber)was established by Transwell,and THP-1 human monocyte macrophages were induced by 100 ng/ml phorbol ester(PMA)24 h to become M0 macrophages,and BCG infection cell model was established.Total cell protein was collected at 12 h and 24 h of infection,respectively.Western blot was used to detect expressions of M1 macrophage marker CD86 and M2 macrophage marker CD206 protein.M1 macrophage polarization marker cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α and M2 macrophage polarization marker cytokine TGF-β expressions in cell culture supernatant were detected by ELISA;experiment was divided into HK-2 group,BCG+HK-2 group,BCG+M0+HK-2 group and M0+HK-2 group,CCK-8 was used to detect viability of HK-2 cells in each group,and Hoechst test was used to detect HK-2 cells apoptosis in each group.Epithelial cell marker E-cadhren and fibroblast markerα-SMA expressions in HK-2 cells of each group were detected by Western blot.Results:After BCG infection of M0 macrophages,M1 macrophage viability was higher than 24 h at 12 h(P<0.05),and M2 macrophage was higher than 12 h at 24 h(P<0.05).After two cells co-culture,HK-2 cell viability was higher than 12 h at 24 h(P<0.001),apoptosis level was higher than 24 h at 12 h,epithelial cell marker protein E-cadherin protein level was higher than 12 h at 24 h(P<0.001),fibroblast level of cell marker protein α-SMA protein at 12 h was higher than that at 24 h(P<0.01).Conclusion:During development of renal tuberculosis,early BCG-infected macrophages may promote inflammatory injury of renal tubular epithelial cells through M1-type polarization;with prolongation of infec-tion time,they may repair renal tubular epithelial cells through M2-type polarization and plays an important protective role.
