Objective:To explore the relationship between glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c)and carotid artery atheroscle-rosis in aged patients with normal glucose tolerance.Methods:A total of 100 aged patients with normal glucose tolerance were selected.Their bilateral carotid arteries were measured by color Doppler ultrasonography.They were grouped accord-ing to carotid intima-media thickness (C-IMT,normal,thicken and atherosclerosis)and plaque form (no plaque,hard plaque and soft plaque);blood pressure,blood lipids and HbA1c etc.were compared among groups.Results: (1)Along with CIMT rose,there was significant increase in HbA1c level [(4.98 ± 0.55)% vs.(5.51 ± 0.42)% vs.(5.92 ± 0.39)%],and there was significant difference between any two groups (P<0.01 all);(2)HbA1c level was (5.36±0.51)%,(5.89±0.44)% and (5.97±0.2)% in no plaque group,hard plaque group and soft plaque group respectively,and there was significant difference among hard plaque group,soft plaque group and no plaque group (P <0.01 all).Conclu-sion:Glycosylated hemoglobin may become an important index assessing carotid atherosclerosis in aged people.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance of pathogenic bacteria in PICU and to provide evidence for use of antibiotics rationally.Methods All the basic clinical features and pathogenic bacteria isolated from patients in PICU of our hospital from October 2009 to September 2012 were analyzed retrospectively.Results A total of 672 pathogenic bacterial strains were isolated (positive rate 16.7％ 672/4 020),75.1％ and 24.9％ were gram negative bacteria and gram positive bacteria,respectively.Pseudomonas aeruginosa was the most common bacteria isolated in gram negative bacteria,followed by Klebsiella pneumonia and Escherichia coli in this order.And Staphylococcus was the main strain in gram positive bacteria.Positive specimens were mainly from lower respiratory tract and bloodstream infection.Most Staphylococcus were resistant to penicillin,oxacillin and erythromycin but susceptible to vancomycin,teicoplanin and linezolid.Gram negative bacteria were resistant to ampicillin,ampicillin-sulbactam,piperacillin and cephalosporin,but susceptible to imipenem,cefoperazone-sulbactam,piperacillin-tazobactam,ciprofloxacin and amikacin.Conclusion Gram negative bacteria is the prevalent strains in PICU of our hospital,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Klebsiella pneumonia and Escherichia coli are common bacterium isolated.Most isolates are highly drug-resistant.Analysis of pathogenic bacteria and drug-resistance surveillance are of vital importance to guide treatments for critically ill children and reduce drug-resistant bacterial strains.

Objective To explore specific risk factors in the early seizures after acute moderate and severe head injuries and understand incidence of nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) under coma. Methods Eighty-six patients with acute moderate and severe head injuries were monitored with video-electroencephalogram (video-EEG) for one week. Results (1) Of all, 7 cases (8.14%) had clinical seizures and 6 (6.98%) NCSE. (2) In patients with severe head injuries especially intracranial hemorrhage, post-traumatic seizures especially NCSE were more likely to occur, with no significant difference in sex and age. Conclusions Severe and critical head injuries and intracranial hemorrhage are specific risk factors for early post-traumatic seizures, especially NCSE. After brain injury, EEG should be used to evaluate traumatic coma even if clinical seizure does not appear.
