Objective To study the effect of Bifidobacterium spent culture supernatant (SCS) on adhesion of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to intestinal epithelial cells. Methods The intestinal epithelial cells were cultured,then divided into three groups: control,Pseudomonas aeruginosa adhesion group,SCS and Pseudomonas aeruginosa adhesion group. The effects of SCS on cell viability,the number of adhering and invasive bacteria were evaluated with MTT assay and lysis-counting assay in 1,3,6 h. Results At 3 h after SCS treatment,the amount of Pseudomonas aeruginosa decreased significantly,and the number of adhering and invasive bacteria decreased by 71% and 87% respectively. Conclusion SCS could protect the intestinal epithelial cells by inhibiting the adhesion and invasion of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanism of silicone gel sheeting on hypertrophic scar. Methods Using human hypertrophic scar as a research object, the changes of fibroblast, collagen metabolism and cytokine expression were observed to study the effects of silicone gel sheeting on hypertrophic scar by clinical observation, histomorphology and immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with the control group, the hypertrophic scar became thin, soft and light markedly, and the expression of TGF ? 1, TGF ? (RI) and ? SM actin were significantly decreased in therapeutic group. Conclusion Silicone gel sheeting may have an influence on scar via inhibiting the expression of TGF ? 1, TGF ?(RI) and ? SM actin in fibroblasts.

Objective To study the effects of early enteral feeding on the preservation of intestinal mucosal barrier in severely burned patients. Methods Twenty-two patients with severe burn were randomly divided into early enteral feeding group (EF) and delayed enteral feeding group (DF). The levels of serum endotoxin and TNF-? were dynamically detected in the patients of both groups, and two unmetabolized sugars (lactose and mannitol) were orally administered in these patients on 1d, 3d and 5d of postburn. The concentrations of lactose and mannitol in urinary and the L/M ratio were observed. Intestinal permeability was assessed by the L/M ratio. Results The levels of serum endotoxin and TNF-? in severely burned patients were significantly higher than in normal (P

Objective To evaluate the endotoxin-neutralizing activity of modeling peptides from the limulus antilipopolysaccharide factor (MPLALFs, Ms) in vitro. Methods The endotoxin-binding activity of Ms was examined by biosensor technique and shown in values of Kon and Kd. The endotoxin-neutralizing effect was analyzed by limulus amebocyte lysate test. Results The biosensor technique results showed that the Kon values of M_0, M_1, M_2, M_3, M_4, M_6, M_8 and M_ 10 binding to LPS 055∶B5 were (840?5.716), (549?6.532), (842?6.530), (627?2.450), (996?5.716), (814?8.982), (556?1.633) and (635?2.449) arc second, of which M_4 and M_1 had the highest and lowest endotoxin-binding activity, respectively. The M_4 reacted to LPS with a Kd of 72.377 ?mol/L. The results obtained by the limulus amebocyte lysate test were the same with those from the biosensor technique. Conclusion M_4 has a potential good endotoxin-neutralizing effect in vitro.

Objective To investigate the genetic mutation of the norA gene and its promotor from the wild-type drug-resistance Staphylococeus aureus(S.aureus)strains. Methods A total of 10 antibiotic-resistant S.aureus strains were isolated and screened from the burn wound for the sequencing and analysis of the nora gene and its promoter. Results There isolated 87 S.aureus strains from the burn wound flora,which were completely sensitive to vacomycin,highly sensitive to Quinupristin and Nitrofurantoin,but highly resistant to the other antibiotics,even up to91.7% of MRSA.There found the same point mutation(G→A) located at 1 349 sites of the norA gene coding region in all the S.aureus strains,saying that the amino acid was changed from Gly(glycin)to Asp(agpartic acid) in 291 sites.The resetpine reverse test showed that the MICs value of three antibiotics was lowered at various degrees in all 10strains.Conclusion NorA gene mutation is one of the mechanisms for antibiotic-resistance of S.aureus.

Objective To study the effects of measures for preventing early postburn damage in improving survival rate of burn patients during the third stage. Methods 12 568 burn cases admitted to our institute were chronically divided into three groups (1958-1980;1981-1990;1991-2000). Total burn surface area (TBSA), survival rate, incidence of burn shock, systemic infection and organ damage as well as the main treatments adopted in the recent decade were retrospectively analyzed. Results Incidence of burn shock, systemic infection and organ damage were significantly lower, and the total survival rate and the survival rate in patients with different TBSA were markedly higher in the third group as compared with those in the first and the second group. Incidence of organ damage in patients treated with delayed fast fluid infusion, early escharectomy en masse, early enteral feeding, early prevention of inhalation injury and gut bacterial translocation were also significantly lower than in the control. Conclusion Measures taken in the third group for preventing early postburn damage play an important role in improving the survival rate of burn patients.

A total of 226 strains of organisms was isolated from the cultures of the subeschar unburnt tissues of the burn patients admitted to this institute in the period from April 1980 to April 1982. Among the organisms, gram-negative bacilli exceeded gram-positive cocci in number. The frequently seen gram-negative bacilli, in the order of frequency, were Pseudomonas, Serratia, Klebsialla, and E. coli. And the frequently seen gram-positive cocci were Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus albus, Streptococcus fecalis, and Streptococcus hemolyticus.The quantitative culture of the biopsy specimen showed its value in our clinical application. In cases of multiple infections, after the identification and precise count of the bacterial colonies on the cultures were done, the percentage of the various organisms could be obtained and the main pathogen was revealed.It was pointed out that ordinary culture media were only favorable for rapid growth of bacteria but the existence of fungi was usually masked. A. modified method of fungus culture, tissue thread culture, was used for the early diagnosis of fungus infection. 38 specimens were studied simultaneously with three methods. The positive rate for fungus was 8% in ordinary cultures, 26% in his-tologic examinations, and 61% in tissue thread cultures.Anaerobic culture was performed for 102 swab specimens from the burn wounds and a positive rate of 14.7% was obtained. In addition, anaerobic blood culture was performed in 10 cases of severe burns with 2 positive cultures. It is suggested that anaerobic infections should not be neglected in burns.
