OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the rational use of vancomycin in neonatal sepsis. METHODS:A retrospec-tive survey was performed for newborns with neonatal sepsis in our hospital from Sept. 1st in 2011 to Sept. 1st in 2012,and the pathogenic examination results,bacterial resistance and use of vancomycin were analyzed and summarized. RESULTS:Totally 317 strains of pathogens were detected in 202 cases,including 147 strains of G+ bacteria(46.4%),88 strains of fungus(27.7%)and 82 strains of G- bacteria (25.9%). Coagulase-negative staphylococcus was the main pathogens. The use rate of vancomycin was 47.0%(95 cases),and the drug selections were all based on susceptibility,with most of two-drug combination(68 cases). No se-vere adverse reactions were found. CONCLUSIONS:Coagulase-negative staphylococcus is severe and has multi-drug resistance in the cases of neonatal sepsis in our hospital. While,the use of vancomycin is basically rational. However,the clinical use of vanco-mycin should be more cautious to prevent the generation of vancomycin-resistant strains.

Objective To compare treatment and efficacy of thoracolumbar fractures by using three different screw fixations:traditional approach,the vertebral side clearance into the road and percutaneous pedicle. Methods A total of 82 single segmental thoracic lumbar fractures cases hospitalized from March 2011 to March 2014 ,with male 67 cases ,female 15 cases ,and average age(33.7+/-12.5)years old. Patients were randomly divided into three groups:traditional approach group (n = 23),operation through paraspinal muscle gap group (n = 30),percutaneous group(n = 29). These following indicators will be compared in three groups:duration of operation ,intraoperative blood loss ,intraoperative fluoroscopy time ,postoperative flow ,VAS scores before and after operation and Oswestry disability index , difference of spinal sagittal position Cobb′s Angle. Results Compared with the traditional approach group ,operation through paraspinal muscle gap group and percu-taneous group have obvious advantages in duration of operation,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative flow,VAS scores before and after operation ,the Oswestry disability index. Additionally ,above mentioned three surgical methods could recover kyphosis deformity ,and there was no statistically significant difference among three groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion In the treatment of monosegmental thoracolumbar fractures ,compared with traditional approach ,operation through paraspinal muscle gap and percutaneous pedicle screw internal fixation have more advantages which includes fewer trauma,less bleeding,faster recovery and lower incidence of postoperative low back pain.

Objective To explore the relationship between the spot size and the result of ploidy analysis in the detection technology based on single-particles, and to fix the scope of spot thickness on the basis of the experimental result.Methods The influence of spot thickness on voltage signals produced by single cells was analyzed.The parameters of the beam shap system in the incident field were designed and optimized on ZEMAX.Finally, according to the cells′diameter, the target size of spots was set.A set of spots of different thickness and of Gaussian distribution obtained from the optical experimental platform was used to conduct ploidy detection experiments.Results Target spots were both obtained from ZEMAX simulation and the optical platform.When the spot thickness was larger than both monocytes and coenocytes, the mean fluorescence intensity ratio was 2.03,which met the demand of the index.Conclusion When the height of the pulse is used to represent the fluorescence density, the relative size of spots and cells will affect the result of ploidy detection.Only when spot thickness is larger than cells is the ploidy ratio accurate.

Objective To evaluate the effect of exogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) on myocardial damage induced by renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods Thirty pathogen-free male Wistar rats,weighing 250-300 g,were randomized into 3 groups (n =10 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (S group); myocardial damage induced by renal I/R group (I/R group); NaHS group.Renal I/R was induced by occlusion of the left kidney for 120 min followed by 60 min reperfusion in anesthetized rats.In NaHS group,NaHS 100 μg/kg was injected intraperitoneally at 20 min before reperfusion.At the end of reperfusion,the rats were sacrificed and the hearts were obtained for determination of malondialdehyde (MDA) content and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity in myocardial tissues and for microscopic examination.Results Compared with S group,MDA content was significantly increased,and GSH-Px activity was decreased in I/R and NaHS groups.Compared with I/R group,MDA content was significantly decreased,and GSH-Px activity was increased in NaHS group.The pathological changes of myocardium were significantly attenuated in NaHS group as compared with I/R group.Conclusion Exogenous H2 S can alleviate myocardial damage induced by renal I/R in rats.

OBJECTIVETo study the variations of protein concentration in saliva stimulated and its effect on clinical diagnosis.

METHODSThe saliva from 33 normal controls and 73 patients with Sjögren syndrome (SS) who were stimulated with acid and not were collected. The concentration of beta 2 microglobulin (beta 2-mG), secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA), and pH were measured by Radioimmunoassay, Rate Nephelometry and pH Detection Paper, respectively. SPSS 10.0 was used to determine the mean statistical differences among these groups.

RESULTSIn patients with SS, the concentration of beta 2-mG in saliva stimulated with Vc was significantly lower compared with that in saliva not stimulated (P < 0.01); In saliva stimulated with Vc, the concentration of beta 2-mG in patients with SS was higher than that in normal controls (P < 0.05). In normal controls, compared with that in saliva not stimulated, flow rate in saliva stimulated with 3% acetic acid and Vc was significantly higher (P < 0.01) and pH, concentration of beta 2-mG and SIgA were significantly lower (P < 0.01 and P < 0.05 respectively); there was a significant difference of flow rate, beta 2-mG, SIgA and pH in saliva between the subjects stimulated with 3% acetic acid and with Vc (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONSThe reason for the decrease of protein concentration in saliva stimulated may be the increase of flow rate caused by the decrease of pH or the decrease of pH itself. Protein detection of saliva stimulated in patients with SS is helpful in diagnosis, but the criterion is different between the saliva stimulated and not stimulated.

In order to discriminate the crude and sweated Dipsaci Radix correctly and rapidly, the crude and sweated Dipsaci Radix were scanned by the NIR spectrometer, and an identifying model was developed by near infrared spectroscopy combined with principal component-Mahalanobis distance pattern recognition method. The pretreated spectra data of 129 crude samples and 86 sweated ones were analyzed through principal component analysis (PCA). The identifying model was developed by choosing the spectrum for 9 881.46-4 119.20 cm(-1) and "SNV + spectrum + S-G" to the original spectral preprocessing with 14 principal components, and then was verified by prediction set, identifying with 100% accuracy. The rapid identification model of the crude and sweated Dipsaci Radix by NIR is feasible and efficient, and could be used as an assistant means for identifying the crude and sweated Dipsaci Radix.
