AIM:To investigate the expression of GAP-43 mRNA and protein of the motor neurons in spinal cord following the brachial plexus avulsion injury.METHODS: In the present study,three kinds of models of brachial plexus avulsion injury were made: right C7 anterior root avulsion(group A),C7 anterior root avulsion with right C5-T1 posterior roots breaking(group B),right C7 anterior root avulsion with hemi-transect between C5 and C6 segment of spinal cord(group C).The expression of GAP-43 mRNA in anterior horn of spinal cord was detected at 14 days after operation by SYBR green quantification RT-PCR technique.The amounts of GAP-43 positive neurons in spinal cord were detected at 1,3,7 and 14 days after operation by immunohistochemistry technique.RESULTS: In control group,the expression of GAP-43 mRNA was very low in anterior horn.By 14 days after operation,the expression of GAP-43 mRNA was evidently up-regulated compared with control group.GAP-43 positive neuron was observed in control group at 1st day and 3rd day after operation.GAP-43 positive neurons appeared at 7th day and peaked at 14th day after operation.The expression of GAP-43 mRNA and protein were maximum in group C,group B was the lowest.CONCLUSION: The expression of GAP-43 mRNA and GAP-43 protein were up-regulated following brachial plexus injury.The expression of GAP-43 protein results from the recombination of proteins.GAP-43 is closely related to the axon regeneration and functional reconstruction.

Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens for hospital-acquired urinary tract infections between patients in internal medicine wards and in surgical wards .Methods A total of 586 midstream urine samples were collected from patients in the First Municipal Hospital of Qinhuangdao during January 2012 and December 2014.Vitek 2 Compact system was applied in bacteria identification and drug sensitivity tests .Excel and SPSS 11.5 software were applied for data analysis . Results A total of 661 strains were isolated , in which 404 strains were from internal medicine wards and 257 strains were from surgical wards .Escherichia coli (44.6%vs.33.1%) and Enterococcus (23.0%vs. 16.3%) infections were more common in the internal medicine wards (χ2 =8.620 and 4.309, P<0.05), while the occurrence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection (4.0%vs.24.5%) was higher in surgical wards (χ2 =63.056, P <0.01).Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia strains were highly sensitive to piperacillin/tazobactam, cefptetan, amikacin, imipenem, and meropenem, and the sensitivity rates were from 85% to 100.0%.The sensitivity rates of Escherichia coli to ampicillin/sulbactam, levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin were <30%, and strains from surgical wards had lower sensitivity rates to these drug than those isolated from internal medicine wards (χ2 =4.987, 4.575 and 5.359, P<0.05).The sensitivity rates of Klebsiella pneumonia isolated from internal medicine wards to ceftazidime , gentamicin and aztreonam were 68.8%, 60.6% and 69.7%, which were higher than those isolated from surgical wards (36.0%, 32.0%, and 40.0%), and the differences were of statistical significance (χ2 =6.068,4.661 and 5.115, P<0.05).Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were highly sensitive to piperacillin/tazobactam and amikacin, and the susceptibilities of strains isolated from surgical wards (98.4%and 96.8%) were higher than those isolated from internal medicine wards (75.0% and 81.3%) (χ2 =11.797 and 5.221, P <0.05). Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from surgical wards were also highly sensitive to cefepime (92.1%), but the sensitive rate of strains from internal medicine wards was only 37.5%, and the difference was of statistical significance (χ2 =24.696, P<0.01).Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis were sensitive to tigecycline , vancomycin and linezolid with the sensitivity rates over 95%.Except quinupristin/dalfopristin and tetracycline , the sensitivities of Enterococcus faecalis to other antibiotics were higher than Enterococcus faecium.Susceptibility of Enterococcus faecium from surgical wards (33.3%) to moxifloxacin was lower than those from internal medicine wards (70.8%), and the difference was of statistical significance (χ2 =4.629, P <0.05).Conclusion There are differences in distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility of pathogens isolated from internal medicine wards and from surgical wards .

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and its isoenzymes,M or H subunits in the retreated patients with multiple myeloma(MM).Methods 141 medical records of retreated patients with multiple myeloma were collected,and the relationship of LDH and its isoenzymes,subunits with DS staging system,ISS staging system,creatinine,bone marrow plasma cell percentage,immunoglobulin and microglobin was analyzed.Results Serum total LDH activity was not significantly related to DS staging system and ISS staging system.LDH1 percentages was negatively correlated with ISS staging system (P＜0.01),and LDH4 percentages positively associated with ISS staging system (P＜0.05).LDH activity,absolute value of LDH1 ,LDH2,LDH3,LDH4,and H subunits were positively linked to serum creatinine in myeloma kidney disease patients with renal inadequacy (P＜0.05).Both percentage and absolute value of LDH5 were negatively correlated with bone marrow plasma cell percentage (P＜0.01 and P＜0.05 respectively).Conclusion The detection of serum LDH isoenzyme is more valuable than total LDH activity in retreated patients with multiple myeloma.

Objective To analyze the pregnancy outcome of laparoscopic cervical cerclage before pregnancy, discuss the clinical value of the treatment of cervical incompetence.Methods 40 cases with cervical insufficiency during 2012.1 -2016.3 before pregnancy underwent laparoscopic ligation.All patients had a history of abortion or premature birth,and the average gestational age was 23.7 weeks.Preoperative cervical length was less than 2.5cm. The operation condition and the pregnancy outcome after operation were observed.Results The average time of oper-ation was 35.6(40.2 ±10.4)min and the amount of bleeding was 10.3(15.7 ±3.2)mL.Postoperative pregnancy cervical average length was 3.61 (4.35 ±0.52)cm.Pregnancy outcome:37 weeks of gestation and above delivery 20 cases (50.0%).34 -37 weeks 16 cases (40.0%),28 -34 weeks in 3 cases,received cesarean section,the aver-age gestational was 35.6 weeks.Compared with the preoperative abortion,the gestational week of delivery was pro-longed by 12.1 weeks.Neonatal survival in 38 cases (95.0%),1 case of gestational 28 +3 weeks premature death. Neonatal birth weight was 2 800(3 079 ±500)g;1 case (2.5%)was difficult to avoid abortion at 23 weeks of gesta-tion.Conclusion Laparoscopic pre -pregnancy cervical cerclage suture in cervix mouth,postoperative can maintain effective cervical length,prolong gestational age,improve the pregnancy outcome,can be used as effective treatment for the pregnant cerclage failure or cervical length less than 2.5cm of cervical insufficiency patients.

Objective To observe the pregnancy by transvaginal double slit cervical pregnancy outcome after ligation,and evaluate its clinical application value.Methods The clinical data of 80 cases with cervical incompe-tence were analyzed.All patients had pregnant metaphase inevitable abortion history,the average abortion pregnant was 21.7 week.According to different treatment methods,80 cases were divided into two groups,treatment group (40 cases)in non pregnant women with silk thread woven tape by double vagina and cervix cerclage,another group of 40 cases in 15 -20 weeks of pregnancy by using polypropylene McDonald method with cerclage.The operation,preg-nancy cervical tube length and pregnancy outcome were observed.Results The average operation time and bleeding volume between the two groups had no statistically significant differences.The pregnancy cervical average length of the treatment group was 4.6(4.8 ±0.5)cm,which was significantly longer than 3.9(3.1 ±0.8)cm of the control group (t =2.732,P <0.05).In the treatment group,the full -term delivery rate,preterm delivery rate,mean gestational age at delivery were 55.0%(22 /40),40.0%(16 /40),35.8 weeks,the average abortion was extended 14.1 weeks com-pared with preoperation,fetal survival rate was 90.0%(36 /40),neonatal birth weight was (3 100.0 ±200.0)g;28 gestational weeks following the inevitable abortion rate was 2.5%(1 /40).In the control group,the term delivery rate was 35.0%(14 /40),the rate of premature birth was 50.0%(20 /40),and the rate of abortion was 15.0%(6 /40)in 28 weeks.Mean gestational age at delivery was 33.2 weeks,which was extended 11.5 weeks compared with preoperative average abortion,fetal survival rate was 85.0% (34 /40),neonatal body mass was (2 900.0 ±300.0)g.
