Objective To investigate perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis in arthroscopic surgery in a hospital before and after intervention,evaluate intervention efficacy,and provide evidence for the rational clinical antimicro-bial application.Methods From August 2012,measures were taken to intervene perioperative antimicrobial use, perioperative antimicrobial use and surgical site infection(SSI)in 312 patients undergoing arthroscopic surgery be-tween September 2011 and August 2013 were retrospectively surveyed.Results A total of 312 patients were investi-gated,pre-and post-intervention were 150 and 162 cases respectively,SSI rates were both 0 before and after inter-vention. Antimicrobial usage rate after intervention was lower than before intervention (26.54% vs 100.00% ,χ2=1.781,P<0.001). Irrational antimicrobial use dropped obviously;average expense of antimicrobial agents dropped from (1165.69±756.33)yuan (RMB)before intervention to (32.71 ±119.29)yuan (RMB)after intervention (t= 3.330,P<0.001).Conclusion Perioperative antimicrobial usage rate in arthroscopic surgery at this hospital decreased significantly after intervention,rational use of antimicrobial agents has improved,SSI rate still remains zero.

Objective To assess the efficiency of algae extermination by the combined copper electrolysis technology. Methods The combined copper electrolysis technology and copper sulphate were used to treat the Synechocystissp strain PCC6803 in the steady stage of culture in different time and the efficiency of algae extermination was assessed. Results No alga in the water sample was detected after 0.5 and 1 hour of treatment with copper electrolysis technology and copper sulphate respectivly as the concentration of Cu2+ was at 0.3 mg/L. The extermination rate of algae was 80.75% after 12 days of treatment of combined copper electrolysis. This technology could effectively decrease the turbidity, smell, COD, ammonia nitrogen and increase the dissolved oxygen in the treated water. Conclusion The Cu2+ released by copper electrolyzing has a stronger efficiency of algae extermination compared with copper sulfate. The combined copper electrolysis technology will be a satisfactory method for algae extermination in the landscape water.

Objective To investigate the difference of serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)concentrations in subjects with various glucose tolerances,and to analyze the correlation with insulin resistance.Methods A total of 90 subjects,who came from the Medical Examination Center of the First Hospital Affiliated to China Medical University from Oct.2004 to Apr.2005,were divided into five groups according to oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT):normal glucose tolerance(NGT)group;impaired fasting glucose(IFG)group;impaired glucose tolerance(IGT)group;IFG and IGT(IGT/IFG)group;newly diagnosed,complication-free type 2 diabetes(T2DM)group.By using the ELISA methods,the concentration of serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)was measured in these subjects,and its correlation with homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR)was andlysed.Results The concentration of hs-CRP was significantly higher in IFG,IFG/IGT,T2DM than in NGT.The concentration of hs-CRP was positively correlated with glucose metabolism index and insulin resistance index.Conclusion Our study demonstrates that inflammation already exists not only in T2DM patients but also in subjects with IFG.Inflammation might participate in the occurance and development of T2DM.

Objective To study the association of the serum soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(SICAM-1) and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(SVCAM-1) with metabolic syndrome(MS) and its components. Methods The MS was defined by criteria of the international diabetes federation. The levels of SICAM-1 ,SVCAM-1,plasma glucose,insulin,lipids,uric acid, glycosylated haemoglobin A(1C), and blood viscosity were measured. Results The concentrations of SICAM-1 and SVCAM-1 were significantly higher in subjects with MS and its components than in those without them. The concentrations of SICAM-1 and SVCAM-1 were correlated positively with disorder number of BMI, WHR, SBP, DBP,FPG, 2 hour plasma glucose, triglyceride, uric acid, HbA1c, blood viscosity and HOMA-IR,and negatively with high density lipoprotein cholesterol. Conclusions The concentrations of SICAM-1 and SVCAM-1 rise with the increase of the number of MS components. Endothelial dysfunction might participate in the occurrence and development of MS.

Objective To research the protective effect of insulin(IN)on lipopolysaccharide(LPS)- induced impairments of rat cardiomyocytes H9c2,and the role of uncoupling protein 2(UCP2)in this process. Methods Using randomized controlled grouping,after cultured for 24 h,H9c2 cells were randomly divided into 5 groups as follows:con-trol group,LPS stimulation group(LPS group),LPS + 70 IU/ L IN group(IN 70 IU/ L group),LPS + 350 IU/ L IN group(IN 350 IU/ L group),and LPS + 700 IU/ L IN group(IN 700 IU/ L group). H9c2 cells in IN group were treated with 70 IU/ L,350 IU/ L or 700 IU/ L IN 15 min before LPS stimulation,and H9c2 cells in control group were treated with an equal volume of saline. After that,cells in group LPS and IN were treated with LPS for 24 h. Lactate dehydro-genase(LDH)in the culture was determined with LDH detecting assay kit. The activity of reactive oxygen species (ROS)and superoxide dismutase(SOD),and content of malonaldehyde(MDA)were determined by colorimetric detec-tion. Cell viability was evaluated by cell count kit - 8. The expressions of UCP2 in transcription and translation levels were detected through transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blot respectively. Results The levels of LDH,MDA,and intracellular ROS in LPS group significantly increased compared with control group[LDH:(829. 3 ± 75. 3)U/ L vs(223. 5 ± 23. 6)U/ L,MDA:(60. 90 ± 5. 73)nmol/ mgprot vs(19. 70 ± 1. 99)nmol/ mgprot,ROS:(410. 2 ± 81. 6)U/ well vs(94. 3 ± 18. 5)U/ well,all P ﹤ 0. 05)],while the cell viability and SOD activity significantly decreased[cell viability:0. 822 ± 0. 058 vs 1. 012 ± 0. 023,SOD:(49. 20 ± 5. 81)U/ mgprot vs(89. 80 ± 2. 57)U/ mg-prot,all P ﹤ 0. 05]. And the mRNA and protein expressions of UCP2 in LPS stimulation group were up - regulated (1. 867 ± 0. 130 vs 1. 028 ± 0. 097,0. 288 ± 0. 018 vs 0. 180 ± 0. 008,all P ﹤ 0. 05). 350 IU/ L and 700 IU/ L IN inter-vention significantly decreased the levels of LDH,MDA and intracellular ROS[LDH:(568. 2 ± 35. 7)U/ L,(622. 8 ± 27. 6)U/ L vs(829. 3 ± 75. 3)U/ L,MDA:(29. 20 ± 4. 20)nmol/ mgprot,(42. 10 ± 2. 32)nmol/ mgprot vs(60. 90 ± 5. 73)nmol/ mgprot,ROS:(270. 3 ± 46. 8)U/ well,(301. 5 ± 16. 9)U/ well vs(410. 2 ± 81. 6)U/ well,all P ﹤ 0. 05], increased the cell survival and the levels of SOD activity[cell viability:0. 960 ± 0. 029,0. 906 ± 0. 039 vs 0. 822 ± 0. 058,SOD:(75. 20 ± 2. 21)U/ mgprot,(61. 20 ± 3. 38)U/ mgprot vs(49. 20 ± 5. 81)U/ mgprot,all P ﹤ 0. 05]. And IN with 350 IU/ L and 700 IU/ L increased the mRNA and protein expression of UCP2(3. 830 ± 0. 265,2. 855 ± 0. 215 vs 1. 867 ± 0. 130,0. 464 ± 0. 215,0. 355 ± 0. 006 vs 0. 288 ± 0. 018,all P ﹤ 0. 05). Compared with 70 IU/ L and 700 IU/ L IN group,350 IU/ L IN group had better results. Conclusions IN attenuates LPS - induced oxidative injury in H9c2 cells,which is probably mediated through up - regulating the expression of UCP2.

Objective:To compare expression levels of matrix Gla protein (MGP) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) in Randall's plaque of renal papillary tissues in patients with calcium oxalate kidney stones and the underlying mechanism for stone formation.Methods:A total of 30 samples of Randall's plaque in renal papillary tissues from patients with calcium oxalate kidney stones were collected from the Department of Urology of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from April,2015 to December,2015 and served as an experimental group.Ten samples of renal papillary tissues in patients undergone renal tumor nephrectomy were collected from the same hospital and served as a control group.The expressions of MGP and BMP-2 mRNA and protein were detected by quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot.Meanwhile,immunohistochemical technique was used to observe the expressions of MGP and BMP-2 in different parts of renal papillary tissues in the 2 groups.Results:1) The mRNA expression levels of MGP in the experimental group and the control group were 0.760±0.804 and 1.365±0.348,respectively,with significant difference between them (P＜0.05).Them RNA levels of BMP-2 in the experimental group and the control group were 2.500±0.725 and 1.485±0.870,respectively,with significant difference between them (P＜0.05).The expression levels of MGP protein in the experimental group and the control group were 0.130±0.424 and 0.202±0.704,respectively,with no significant difference between them (P＞0.05).The expression levels of BMP-2 protein in the experimental group and the control group were 0.885±0.220 and 0.682±0.272,respectively,with significant difference between them (P＜0.05).T-he immunohistochemistry showed that the protein expression of MGP in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group,while the protein expression of BMP-2 in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group (both P＜0.05).Conclusion:The BMP-2 expression is increased while MGP expression is decreased in renal papillary tissues in patients with calcium oxalate kidney stones,and the formation of calcium oxalate kidney stone might be a kind ofosteogenetic reaction or ectopic calcification.

Objective To evaluate the value and characteristics of 18F-FDG PET/CT and contrastenhanced CT in pulmonary sclerosing hemangioma (PSH).Methods A retrospective study involving 5 patients confirmed as PSH by pathology from June 2007 to June 2011 was performed.The cases consisted of four women and one man with age ranged from 39 to 66 (mean 51.6) years.All patients received dualphase 18 F-FDG PET/CT,high resolution (HR) CT and multi-phase contrast-enhanced CT (Siemens Biograph 16 PET/CT).Lesion SUVmaon early and delayed PET/CT images,retention index,increased HU value,washout time from peak on contrast-enhanced CT and peritumor vessel sign were studied.Results PSH lesions showed patchy increased 18F-FDG uptake with mean SUVmax on early and delayed PET/CT of 3.3 ± 1.1 and 3.4 ± 1.4,respectively.The mean retention index was (2.1 ± 20.8) ％.The morphological features of PSH on HRCT included findings such as a round/oval nodule or mass with well-defined margins and air meniscus sign.On muhi-phase contrast-enhanced CT,PSH showed moderate to high enhancement (the increased value:35 to 59 HU) with washout times from peak of 140 to 260 s,and 1 to 4 peritumor vessel signs.Conclusions A patchy pattern of high 18F-FDG uptake on PET/CT is suggestive of benign entity.Contrast-enhanced CT findings are very useful to increase the confidence for the diagnosis of PSH.
