Objective To evaluated the application value of two kinds of mass spectrometer(MS)and Vitek MS system in the i-dentification of routinely isolated bacteria in clinic.Methods 149 strains of common bacteria(including 14 genera and 30 species)i-solated from blood,urine,cerebral spinal fluid,secretion and sputum samples in our hospital from March 2012 to January 2013 were collected and simultaneously identified by 2 kinds of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometer (MALD-TOF-MS).The identification results were compared with those identified by the conventional biochemical identification (Vitek2 compact).The strains with the inconsistent results identified by 3 kinds of method were confirmed by 16S rDNA gene se-quencing.Results Among 149 common bacteria,the correct identification rates of genus and species by the Bruker Biotyper MS were 98% and 96% respectively and which by the Vitek MS system were 97% and 95% respectively.There were no misidentified bacterial strains by these two kinds of MS.Conclusion No statistical difference in the identification results was observed between these two kinds of MS system(P >0.05).Both exhibit excellent identification level and are suitable for the routine laboratory iden-tification of clinical microorganism.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic value of pretreatment 18F-FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters in patients with elderly classical Hodgkin′s lymphoma (cHL). Methods:From April 2011 to April 2020, the pretreatment clinical and 18F-FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters of 42 elderly cHL patients (29 males and 13 females, median age 69 years) pathologically confirmed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) were obtained with 41%SUV max as the threshold. ROC curve analysis was applied to obtain the best prognostic cut-off value of SUV max, MTV and TLG. Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used for univariate survival analysis, and Cox proportional hazard regression model was used for multivariate survival analysis. Results:SUV max, MTV and TLG of 42 elderly cHL patients were 16.49(12.24, 23.59), 79.29(26.29, 184.51) ml and 729.02(206.03, 2 073.98) g, respectively. ROC curve showed that the AUCs of SUV max, MTV and TLG were 0.425, 0.882 and 0.832, respectively, and the best prognostic cut-off values were 16.49, 82.38 ml and 556.26 g, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that age, B symptoms, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level, Hb content, Ann Arbor stage, German Hodgkin Study Group (GHSG) score, MTV and TLG were relative factors affecting progression-free survival (PFS) rate ( χ2 values: 4.50-12.60, all P<0.05), and age, B symptoms, LDH level, Ann Arbor stage, GHSG score, MTV and TLG were relative factors affecting overall survival (OS) rate ( χ2 values: 5.20-11.17, all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that MTV (relative risk ( RR)=5.370, 95% CI: 1.697-16.277) and TLG ( RR=4.854, 95% CI: 1.228-23.352) were independent prognostic predictors of PFS rate (both P<0.05), and GHSG score ( RR=3.761, 95% CI: 1.092-12.955; RR=3.668, 95% CI: 1.068-12.571), MTV ( RR=6.173, 95% CI: 1.431-16.322) and TLG ( RR=5.162, 95% CI: 1.200-22.199) were independent prognostic predictors of OS rate (all P<0.05). Conclusion:MTV and TLG in pretreatment 18F-FDG PET/CT are independent prognostic factors for predicting PFS and OS in patients with elderly cHL patients, which have certainly reference value for prognosis.

Objective To explore the effects of health education video based on Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) model in patients with initial stroke. Methods A total of 146 patients with initial stroke hospitalized in General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Command of PLA from January to August 2016 were selected and randomly divided into control group (n=74) and observation group (n=72) according to the hospitalized ward. The control group received routine health education. In the observation group, health education videos based on KAP mode were circulated daily in the ward on the basis of the control group. Before the intervention, at the time of discharge, and one month after discharge, the scores of the disease related knowledge and the Champion Health Belief Model Scale (CHBMS) were compared between the two groups. One month after discharge, the scores of the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) were compared between the two groups. Results At the time of discharge, the scores of disease related knowledge and CHBMS were (6.49±1.34) and (111.58±17.95) respectively, which were both higher than those of the control group, with statistical significance (t=4.448, 6.695;P<0.01). One month after discharge, the score of MMAS-8 was (6.05±1.43), which was higher than that of the control group (4.50±1.06), with statistical significance (t=7.454, P< 0.01). Conclusions Health education video based on KAP model can improve the knowledge, health belief and medication compliance of patients with initial stroke. The video strengthens the knowledge of patients with initial stroke, which is conducive to the formation of the correct attitude and behavior of patients, suitable for further promotion in the future.
