Objective To investigate the causes of a healthcare-associated lower respiratory tract infection(HA-LRTI) outbreak due to Enterobacter cloacae(E.cloacae), and provide basis for clinical prevention and control of HAI.Methods Epidemiological data of patients with E.cloacae HA-LRTI following bronchoalveolar lavage(BAL) in the departments of respiratory disease and thoracic surgery of a hospital were collected, antimicrobial resistance analysis on isolated pathogens from patients and environment was performed, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was used for genotyping.Results On March 8-16, 2013, a total of 15 patients underwent BAL in the fiberobronchoscopy room in the departments of respiratory disease and thoracic surgery of a hospital, 13 of whom developed E.cloacae LRTI, 4 cases were community-associated infection (the initial case was included), the other 9 cases were HAI;8 environmental specimens were detected 2 strains of E.cloacae, the strains were from vacuum suction joint of fiberbronchoscope and scissors used for trimming disposable controllable sputum suction pipeline.15 strains of E.cloacae from environment and patients were screened by antimicrobial susceptibility testing, 11 strains were with similar antimicrobial susceptibility testing result, 2 of which were environmental strains, 6 were from inpatients, and 3 were from patients in community.PFGE typing of 11 strains revealed that there were 8 strains with the same genotype, 6 of which were from patients in department of thoracic surgery, 2 were from vacuum suction joint of fiberbronchoscope and scissors used for disposable controllable sputum suction pipeline;the other 3 strains were of the same genotype, and from departments of respiratory disease and thoracic surgery.Conclusion This outbreak is due to contamination of bronchofibroscope by the same E.cloacae strain, the strain is susceptible to the clinic commonly used antimicrobial agents, such events should be paid attention in clinic, the key to control infection is to take necessary measures for cutting off the spread of the epidemic.

Objective To evaluate the possible association among serum folate,polymorphisms related reduced folate carrier gene (RFC-1) AS0G,methionine synthase reductase gene (MTRR) A66G,and cervical cancer,and to provide clues for the etiology of cervical cancer.Methods Based on a hospital-based case-control study,107 cases diagnosed as cervical cancer pathematologically and 107 controls with hysteromyoma,were selected by frequency,matched with age and habitation.Serum folate concentration was detected by RIA and polymorphism RFC-1 A80G and MTRR A66G was examed by RFLP-PCR.Results Serum folate concentration in patient group [(1.86±0.60) ng/rml] was significantly lower than that in control group [(2.30 ± 1.14) ng/ml],and risk of cervical cancer increased with the decreased serum folate levels (x2trend =12.57,P =0.001).Risks to catch cervical cancer for women with RFC-1 80 GG were 2.42 times (95 ％ CI 1.01-5.81) as much as for those with RFC-1 80 AA,and 1.65 times (95 ％ CI 0.77-3.53) for those with RFC-1 80 AA and RFC-1 80 AG,risks to catch cervical cancer for women with MTRR 66 GG were 1.35 times (95 ％ CI 0.40-4.56) as much as for those with MTRR 66 AA and 1.26 times (95 ％ CI 0.38-4.16) for those with RFC-1 80 AA and RFC-1 80 AG.Conclusion Serum folate deficiency to a certain degree can increase the risk of cervical cancer.RFC-1 A80G mutation may be a risk factor for cervical cancer and homozygous (GG) gene may increase the susceptibility of cervical cancer.MTRR A66G gene mutation may have nothing to do with cervical cancer.

Objective To explore the etiology of lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis(DS)by analyzing its CT manifestations.Methods The location,degree and angle of inclination of lumbar facet joints were measured in 125 cases with 131 spondylolisthesis.Results The angle of inclination of lumbar facet joints was

The study aims to develop a rapid, sensitive and specified method of liquid chromatography with heated electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-HESI/MS/MS) for simultaneous determination of amlodipine, benazepril and benazeprilat in human plasma using amlodipine-d4 and ubenimex as internal standards (ISs). Selected reaction monitoring (SRM) with heated electrospray ionization (HESI) was used in the positive mode for mass spectrometric detection. Analytes and ISs were extracted from plasma by simple protein precipitation. The reconstituted samples were chromatographed on a C18 (100 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 microm) column with mixture of methanol-acetonitrile-5 mmol.L- ammonium acetate-formic acid (30 : 30 : 40 : 0.1) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.6 mL.min-1. The standard curves were demonstrated to be linear in the range of 0.02 to 6.00 ng.mL-1 for amlodipine, 0.2 to 1,500 ng.mL-1 for benazepril and benazeprilat with r2>0.99 for each analyte. The lower limit of quantitation was identifiable and reproducible at 0.02, 0.2 and 0.2 ng mL-1 for amlodipine, benazepril and benazeprilat, respectively. The intra-day and inter-day precision and accuracy results were within the acceptable limit across all concentrations. The plasma samples were stable after four freeze-thaw cycles and being stored for 93 days at -20 degrees C. The method was applied to a pharmacokinetic study of a fixed-dose combination of amlodipine and benazepril on Chinese healthy volunteers.
