Objecfive To investigate the prevalence of Ureaplasma urealyticum(UU)and Mycoplasma hominis(MH)infections in urogenital tract and their sensitivities to drugs in Qinhuangdao area from 2006 to 2007.Methods UU and MH were detected by Mycoplasma IST kits in urine samples from 3062 patients suspected as urogenital tract infection and the sensitivity tests for 8 antimicrobial agents were performed.Results Mycolasmas were detected in 1262 patients from 3062 patients suspected as urogenital tract infection,in which 1037 were of UU infection,41 were of MH infection and 184 were of UU+MH infection.Both strains were sensitive to josamycin,doxycycline and tetracycline,but were less sensitive to ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin.Conclusions Drug resistance is increasing for Mycoplasma and sensitivity test is important in treatment of urogenital tract infection by Mycoplasma.

OBJECTIVE To develop an HPLC method for the determination of floxuridine in human serum.METHODS With metronidazole as the internal standard,200 μL of serum was extracted by n-propyl alcohol/methyl t-butyl ether in a two-step extraction.The organic layer was evaporated under nitrogen stream and the residual was reconstituted with the mobile plase.A Shim-Pack CLC-ODS column was selected and the mobile phase was consisted of acetonitrile-phosphate buffer-water (75∶100∶900) at a flow rate of 0.6 mL*min-1.The detection wavelength was 268 nm.RESULTS A linearitywas obtained from 0.005 to 0.5 mg*L-1 of floxuridine in serum with a good correlation coefficient (r=0.9999,n=8).The intra-run and inter-run coefficients of variation were less than 4.09%.The mean recoveries were 103.00%,107.00% and 100.88% for the low,middle and high concentrations of check samples,respectively.The limit of detection was 0.001 mg*L-1.CONCLUSION The method was sensitive,specific and simple.It is suitable for clinical pharmacokinetic study.

Objective To investigate the changes of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FENO)) and their relation with lung function in bronchial asthma.Methods FENO and forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) were measured during the periods of acute onset,chronic persistence and paracmasis in 54 patients with asthma and 19 healthy persons.Results There were significant differences in the levels of FENO and FEV1 among the course of acute onset [(57.59 ± 32.24) ppb and (1.72± 0.33) L],chronic persistent course [(40.02 ± 15.68) ppb and (2.41 ± 0.23) L],paracmasis [(26.71±6.07) ppb and (2.82±0.29 )L]and control[(14.74±3.42 ) ppb and (2.93±0.13)L] (F=19.555,163.096,P<0.01) except for the levels of FEV1 between paracmasis and control group(P>0.05).The negative correlation between FENO and FEV1 was found in the course of acute onset(r=- 0.666,P =0.005 ),but not in the chronic persistent course ( r =- 0.288,P =0.176) and paracmasis(r=-0.246,P=0.457).Conclusions The level of FENO is increased and may be useful to evaluate control degree in patients with asthma.

Objective To study the distribution of intestinal autofluorescent microorganisms in the rat intestine at different developmental stages. Methods The distribution of intestinal autofluorescent microorganisms in rat intestine at va-rious developmental stages was tested and evaluated using a small animals living imaging system. First, standard E. coli strain was tested by fluorescence detection in vitro. Then, the distribution of E. coli under the same test conditions was tested. The intestinal autofluorescent bacteria distribution was detected in the SD rats at 3 days,14 days and 60 days of age. After expanding the range of excitation wavelength fluorescence detection,removing the background of fluorescence feed and feces and other foreign autofluorescent substances. Results E. coli can be excited in the range of 485 -535 nm wave?length and to emit fluorescence. E. coli mainly existed in the stomach and only a few E. coli were found in the ileum of 3?days old SD rat. . In the 14?days old rats, E. coli mainly existed in the stomach and cecum, and only a few E. coli were found in the ileum. In the 60-days old SD rats, E. coli mainly existed in the ileum, and only a few E. coli were found in the colon, cecum and jejunum. After the expansion of the excitation light wavelength range of fluorescence detection, E. co?li were observed mainly in the ileum, and only a few E. coli were found in the stomach in 3?days old SD rat. E. coli mainly existed in the stomach, then the cecum and only a few E. coli were found in the ileum and jejunum in 14-days old SD rats. E. coli could be found in the whole intestinal system but mainly in the ileum and cecumin of the 60-days old rats. Conclu?sions Examining the intestinal autofluorescent microbes with the small animal in vivo imaging system can be helpful and make guidance to study the distribution of intestinal microbes in the host at different developmental stages, and to provide a basis for studying the relationship of intestinal microbes with its host and the gastrointestinal drug administration.

Objective To explore the relationship between obese children with benign acanthosis ni-gricans and insulin-resistant and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods Levels of glucose, insulin, and glucose/ insulin ratio were measured on fasting blood specimens, and anthropometric parameters including waist/hip ratio, fat mass, body fat percentage and body mass index were examined in 42 obese children with benign acanthosis nigricans, 60 cases of simple obesity and 20 healthy children controls. Glucose tolerance tests were performed in groups of obese children with benign acanthosis nigricans and simple obesity, respectively. Results Two of 42 obese children with benign acanthosis nigricans were diagnosed as type 2 diabetes mellitus. The rate of abnormal glucose tolerance and levels of blood sugar during 60 min and 120 min after glucose tolerance were significantly higher in acanthosis nigricans children than those in simple obesity (P

Objective Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) often causes damage to multiple systems, especially to the central nervous system, inducing cognitive dysfunction.This study aims to explore the possible correlation of the expressions of serum hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) with cognitive impairment in rats under different hypoxia conditions.Methods Twenty-four Wistar rats were equally randomized into a normal control, a chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), and a chronic continuous hypoxia (CCH) group.The rats of the CIH group were placed in a hypoxia chamber filled with N2 and air, the oxygen concentration switched from (7±0.5)% to 21%, 1.5 minutes for each state and 4 minutes for each cycle, while those of the CCH group were placed in another hypoxia chamber with the oxygen concentration of (7±0.5)%, 8 hours a day and all for 30 days.Then we recorded the body weight of the rats, detected the expressions of serum HIF-1α and BDNF by ELISA, and observed the changes of behavior by Morris water maze test and those of the hippocampal morphological structure by HE staining.Results At 30 days after modeling, the body weight of the rats was significantly decreased in the CIH and CSH groups as compared with the normal control ([195.75±6.497] and [180.88±12.017] vs [218.63±15.287] g, P<0.05).Positioning navigation showed that the escape latency was significantly longer in the hypoxia models than in the controls (P<0.05), even longer in the CIH than in the CCH group (P<0.05).Spatial exploration test manifested a lower frequency of crossing the platform in the CIH and CCH groups than in the control ([2.63±1.45] and [3.22±1.30] vs [4.97±0.47] times, P<0.05).The expression levels of serum HIF-1α and BDNF were significantly higher in the CIH ([36.14±9.34] and [1625.34±332.44] pg/mL) and CCH ([27.27±6.88] and [1204.07±363.81] pg/mL) than in the normal control group ([14.11±4.06] and [1036.40±124.48] pg/mL) (P<0.05), even higher in the CIH than in the CCH group (P<0.05).HE staining exhibited scattered and disorderly arrangement of hippocampal neurons in the model rats, with unclear nuclear membrane, pyknosis of the nuclei, darkly stained cytoplasm, and some damaged cells.More obvious absence and vacuolization of some cells were observed in the rats of the CIH group.Conclusion Chronic hypoxia inhibits the growth and development of rats and induces cognitive dysfunction.High-level HIF-1α in chronic intermittent hypoxia indicates hypoxia-stress of the body, while compensatory increase of serum BDNF may be involved in neuronal cell damage regulation.
