Objective To understand the clinical characteristics and susceptible factors of neonatal nosocomial infection in primary hospital,and discuss the control measures in order to effectively reduce the neonatal nosocomial infection rate.Methods A retrospective analysis about clinical characteristics and susceptible factors of neonatal nosocomial infection was carried out from October 2010 to September 2012.Results Premature rupture of fetal membranes,premature infant,low birth weight,invasive operation were high risk factors for nosocomial infection.Infection most often occurred in respiratory tract,skin and soft tissue.Conclusions Neonatal nosocomial infection is influenced by many factors,in which the awareness of prevention and control among the medical staff,the aseptic operation,hand hygiene compliance,the ward disinfection management level and education during the pregnancy are crucial,which are the key link in the control of neonatal nosocomial infection.

Objective Through clinical observation and research with persistent atrial fibrillation in patients with blood-brain natriuretic peptide ( BNP) level change detection renin, angiotensin Ⅱ, aldosterone, analyze their data, investigate persistent atrial fibrillation ( PAF ) serum brain natriuretic hormone levels change and the relationship between the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS).Methods 80 patients with coronary artery disease in our hospital from December 2013 to October 2015 were selected, randomly divided into experimental principle PAF group (40 cases) and control group ( patients in sinus rhythm,with 40 cases) , BNP, renin, angiotensinⅡ, aldosterone levels were measured in two groups, and left atrial diameter (LAD) measurements.Results Under the same condition of cardiac function, the blood BNP concentration in PAF group was higher than that in control group (P <0.05).The results of the linear regression analysis showed that the correlation coefficient of blood BNP level and AngII concentration in PAF group was 0.301, the correlation coefficient of blood BNP level and LAD indicators in PAF group was 0.373, the concentrations of BNP and RAAS were positively correlated with LVMI, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05), the blood BNP level was closely related to the level of RAAS in the PAF group (P<0.05).Conclusion Blood BNP concentration was significantly higher in patients with PAF and blood BNP concentration is closely related with the RAAS, LAD indicators, and a positive correlation.

AIM: To investigate the correlation of hepatitis B virus X protein (HBx) with renal tubular epithelialcell apoptosis in hepatitis B virus-associated glomerulonephritis (HBVGN) and the possible signaling mechanism. METHODS: The activation of JAK2/STAT3 signal pathway and the expression of apoptosis -related proteins in humankindey proximal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2 cells) were determined by Western blotting after transfection with HBx eukaryoticexpression vector.The cell proliferation was observed by CCK-8 assay.The cell apoptosis was analyzed by the imagingof HO33342 staining, transmission electron microscopy and flow cytometry with Annexin V /PI double staining.RESULTS:After transfection of the target gene HBx, the expression levels of both p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 were significantly increased.At the same time, the cell proliferation was obviously inhibited, and the apoptotic rate was increased.After incubationwith AG490, the JAK2/STAT3 signal pathway was partially blocked, and the cell apoptosis induced by HBx was reduced. CONCLUSION: HBx up-regulates the activation of JAK2/STAT3 signal pathway to induce renal tubular epithelialcell apoptosis, which is possibly involved in the pathogenic mechanism that HBV directly damages nephridial tissue .

Objective To study the clinical effect of Qiliqiangxin capsule (QC) in patients with chronic congestive heart failure (CHF). Methods According to random number table,64 CHF patients were randomly assigned into therapy group (n=33) and control group (n=31).During the treatment,sweat secretion,heart function improved rate,6 min walking distance,the side-effect and compliance were observed.The levels of serum Na+ and K+ of patients were measured on the 2nd,8th and 15th hospital day.Results Compared with control group,the remission rate of sweat secretion in therapy group was higher after treatment (P0.05);compared with control group,the improved rates of heart function and 6 min walking distance in therapy group were higher after two weeks (P0.05);on the 15th day,the level of serum Na+ in therapy group was higher than that in control group (P0.05).During treatment,33 patients had not any uncomfortable complain about this drug and nobody stopped using this capsule;while there was no complain from the patients of control group.Conclusion The effect of QC about releasing hyperidrosis in a short time is conspicuous.QC can improve heart function,but it plays this role gradually.QC can keep the level of serum Na+ to some extent.There is no influence on the level of serum K+.The tolerance of this capsule is well.

Objective To investigate the relationship between microalbuminuria to estimated glomerular filtration rate (mALB/GFR) ratio and incidence of contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) after underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Between March 2010 to August 2011, a total of 137 patients who underwent PCI were selected. Anthropometric measures, lipid profiles, fasting blood glucose, CRP, base creatinine and microalbuminuria were measured before operation. Glomerular filtration rate was calculated by MDRD formula. Contrast volume (CV) was recorded after the operation for each patient. Serum creatinine was measured 24 h, 48 h, 72 h after operation, respectively. CIN was defined as an increase in serum creatinine levels of 25% or 44 μmol/L or more from baseline within 72 h after PCI. All patients were divided into group A (CIN group) and group B (No CIN group). Results Eighteen (13.1%) patients developed CIN(group A). The others were group B (no CIN group). The level of CRP, base creatinine, microalbuminuria and mALB/GFR in group A were significantly higher than that in group B ( P < 0 . 01 ) . GFR in group A was lower than that in group B (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that the level of base creatinine , microalbuminuria GFR and mALB/GFR were independent risk factors of CIN occurrence (P < 0.05). The receiver-operator characteristic curve analysis indicated that a mALB/ GFR ratio of 1.17 was a fair discriminator for CIN,and sensitivity were 94.1%, specifity were 72.5%. Conclusion A mALB/ GFR ratio was a independent predictor of CIN after PCI.

Objective To analyse the plasma glucose change in the patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and to discuss its possible mechanism. Methods The clinical data of 61 cases with SARS in Tianjin were retrospectively analysed. Results Plasma glucose level increased in 26 cases with SARS, among them, 2 cases suffered from diabetes before SARS onset, 24 cases were diagnosed as the secondary diabetes whose blood glucose level recovered normal after SARS were cured, except 4 cases who were dead. All of the 61 cases were treated with glucocorticoids. If the patients were grouped by the dose of methylprednisolone they received, 9 out of 14 cases with large dose, 14 out of 26 cases with middle dose and 1 out of 21 cases with small dose were led to secondary diabetes. There was significant difference in the incidence of the secondary diabetes between the small dose group and middle/large dose groups (P

Objective To explore continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT) machine for plasma exchange in critical disease in children.Methods Retrospective study of 8 patients(8 month to 14 years,mean 5.7 years) and 32 plasma exchange treatments,after(adowble) lumen catheter inserted into the subclayian venous,using the Baxter BM25 machine with commercially available plasma filters.Results Five patients(3 ABO-incompatibility in bone marrow transplantation,1 thrombotic thrombocytopaenic purpura TTP,1 sepsis) gained full recovery.One systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) and 1 sepsis experienced moderate improvement while 1 case of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis failed PE treatment.The average total exchange volume was 80-100 mL/kg,achieved at a blood flow rate of 5-10 mL/(kg?min) and a turnover rate of 60-120 mL/(kg?h) over a 3-hours duration.Thirty-one PE treatments were finished smoothly,one of which experienced the serious complication involving plasma filter.Conclusion Plasma exchange therapy is a safe and effective procedure for severe autoimmune abnormalities and pathogen removal in children.
