Objective To analyze the risk factors and distribution of pathogenic bacteria of urinary tract infection (UTI) patients with spi-nal cord injury (SCI). Methods A total of 452 patients with SCI collected from December, 2015 to June, 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Results 104 cases (23.1%) were diagnosed as UTI. 119 strains were identified, including 96 strains of Gram-negative bacteria (80.7%) and 22 strains of Gram-positive bacteria (19.3%). Female, invasive operation, depressed lower limb muscle strength, neurogenic bladder and pre-vention of antibacterial agents use were considered to be the main risk infection factors. The invasive operation included indwelling urethral catheterization, intermittent catheterization and other transurethral operation. The incidence rate of UTI in patients with SCI who also accept-ed indwelling catheter was 100.0%. Conclusion Gram-negative bacteria is the dominated pathogenic bacteria in SCI patients with UTI. It should be noticed the characteristics of pathogen, which both may have the high drug resistance rate and high separation rate, to select exact-ly antimicrobial agents to control the spread and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria. In addition, patients with underlying diseases, inva-sive operation and lower strength should be monitored targeted.

Objective:To investigate the relationship of family history , psychosocial factors of PD (Parkinson's Disease) in a rural population in north China. Methods: A case control study was conducted in rural population in China. Cases (n=77) have been diagnosed by a two-phase screening by neurologists and interviewers in May, 2000. Controls (n=154), randomly selected from the same cohort, who were matched with patients (control/cases ra-tio=2) for sex, age (?5 years). Information of participants' characteristics came from the interview in 2001. Data was analyzed by using conditional logistic regression by SAS 6.12. Results: Family history (OR=13.54) .negative life events (OR=3.02), interpersonal communication (OR=2.10) were associated with a significantly elevated risk for the onset of PD. Conclusion: These results indicate that family history, psychosocial factors were risk factors of PD.

Objective To explore the relationship between the postoperative prophylactic antibiotics and surgical site infection rates after breast cancer surgery.Methods Retrospective review of patients with breast surgical procedures between March 2007 to March 2016 were included,267 cases only preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis as control group,and 117 cases of preoperative and postoperative prophylactic antibiotics as research group.The surgical site infection( SSI) rates were compared.Results There was no statistically significant association between research groups and control group of SSI rates for both a 30-day postoperative period and beyond.Further,There was also no statistically significant association between research groups with drains and control group with drains of SSI rates for both a 30-day postoperative period and beyond.Conclusion There is no significant relationship between postoperative prophylactic antibiotics and surgical site infection rates after breast cancer surgery.

Objective To analyze the clinicopathological characteris tics of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with secondary antiphospholid syndrome (APS) . Methods Data of 11 cases of SLE with secondary APS (SLE with APS) admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2000 to March 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. Kidney biopsy was performed on all of these patients. Differences of clinicopathology and outcomes between SLE with and without APS were compared. Results Renal involvement was found in all the SLE with APS patients. The prominent clinical manifestations included hypertension (54.5%), nephrotic level of proteinuria (24 h proteinuria ≥3.5 g)(72.7%) and renal insufficiency (45.5%). Diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure and glomerular filtration rate in SLE with APS were significantly higher than those in SLE without APS (all P＜0.05). In 8 out of 11 cases (72.7%), APS nephropathy (APSN) in kidney biopsy was found, characterized by small vessel vaso-occlusive lesions. These included thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), fibrous intimal hyperplasia (FIH), focal cortical atrophy (FCA) and tubular thyroidization. Among those, 5 cases (45.5%) had chronic APSN and 4 (36.4%) had acute APSN (one case had acute and chronic APSN at the same time). The incidences of APSN and acute APSN in the SLE with APS group were significantly higher than those in SLE without APS group (P＜0.05). Conclusions The major renal manifestations of SLE with APS are hypertension, nephrotic level of proteinuria and renal insufficiency. Other than lupus nephritis, also a high incidence of APSN is found in SLE with APS patients.

Objective To analyse renal lesions associated with infectious endocarditis (IE). Methods Renal lesions associated with IE were reviewed. One hundred and fifty-five cases of IE were admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 1983 to 2004. C-square, t-test and Spearman's rank correlation analysis were performed. Results One hundred and thirty-seven(84.4%) cases of renal lesions associated with IE with an average age of 38 were found. The ratio of male to female was 1.4 and the period of pre-renal lesion was 4.8 months. Renal lesions included asymptomatic hematuria and/or proteinuria (71.0%), acute nephritic syndrome (6.5%), nephrotic syndrome (2.6% ), rapid progressive glomerulonephritis (1.3% ), renal embolism (1.3% ), isolated pyuria(3.2%), renal lesion not directly related to IE(2.6%). Acute renal insufficiency in 14 cases were caused by glomerulonephritis (5 cases), acute interstitial nephritis (5 cases), renal embolism(1 case), acute heart failure(5 cases) and the adverse effect of antibiotics (2 cases). Renal biopsy was taken in four patients. One diffuse proliferative glomerulonephritis, one membranous glomerulonephritis, one membrane-proliferative glomerulonephritis and one crescentic glomerulonephritis were found. All patients received antibiotic therapy and three of them stopped taking antibiotics, which was suspected to cause renal lesion. 20.4% cases received surgical therapy. 3.6% were treated with corticosteroid and/or immunoimpressive drugs and two cases of them were treated with intravenous bolus methylprednisolone. One case recieved anticoagulant therapy. 4.5% cases died. 43.8% cases with renal lesions were cured and 85.7% serum creatinine level decreased to normal. Statistical analysis showed that active treatment made no improvement on neither patients with or without renal lesion nor patients with different severity of renal lesion. Conclusions Renal lesions associated with IE are common. Most are asymptomatic hematuria and/or proteinuria. Acute nephritic syndrome, nephrotic syndrome, rapid progressive glomerulonephritis, renal embolism may also occur. It maybe appropriate to treat with corticosteroid, immunopressive drugs or intravenous bolus methylprednisolone for patients with rapid progressive glomerulonephritis under successful management of infective endocarditis.

Objective To investigate the influences of different factors on postpartum pelvic floor muscle injury, and provide clinical evidence to the early prevention of pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD). Methods A total of 65 630 women, who participated the postpartum pelvic floor function screening in Tianjin, from December 2011 to December 2014 were selected in this study. The uniform detect methods was used in this study. The analysis based on the PFD was diagnosed by physi?cians of Women’s and Children’s Health Center in each district. The influences of different factors on postpartum pelvic floor muscle were analyzed. Results There were 19 452 (29.6%) women suffering from postpartum pelvic floor muscle inju?ry, with the abnormal rate 29.6%, which was higher in rural areas than that in urban areas (33.9%vs 27.8%). The abnormal rate was higher in women with junior middle education or below (34.1%) than that in women with senior middle or polytech?nic schooling (30.4%), and women with college or higher education (27.7%). There was a higher abnormal rate in women with vaginal surgery delivery (40.8%) than that in women with natural delivery (32.5%) and women with caesarean section (27.2%). The muscle abnormal rate was higher in women having given two or more than two times of deliveries (34.6% , 31.5%) than those having initial delivery (29.1%). Multiple factor analyses showed that city residency, higher education and less delivery times were protecting factors for postpartum pelvic floor muscle while vaginal surgery was a risk factor for post?partum pelvic floor muscle. Conclusion There is a high incidence of postpartum pelvic floor muscle injury in the region of Tianjin. Analyzing the risk factors and strengthening the management of pelvic floor muscle injury by early prevention or ear?ly treatment would help to reduce the incidence of PFD effectively during pre-pregnancy and perinatal periods.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a kind of chronic, progressive, multiple, invasive autoimmune disease with two chief cclinical manifestations arthrosynovitis and ex-arthrosis, easy to occur in middle-aged women, also occur in children and the elderly, is characterized by progressive and break out repeatedly. RA pathogenesis is complex, there is no special treatment, used in treatment of R drug varied, new drugs and new therapies also emerge in endlessly, main including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), slow action anti-rheumatism medicine (SAARDs), glucocorticoids (GCs), biological agent, traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine preparations, domestic market for rheumatoid main drug treatment are NSAIDs, SAARDs, GCs, traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine preparations. Traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medi- cine preparations for the treatment of RA have its unique advantages, show the characteristics of overall adjustment, multi-level and multiple targets, and also can alleviate and against side effects of western medicine. In recent years, more and more get people's atten- tion. This paper reviewed the research progress and treatment features of commonly used therapeutic agents for the treatment of RA in recent years, which provides reference and basis for future medicine anti-RA.
