Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of levofloxacin and rifapentine for elderly initial treatment pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods 120 cases of elderly initial treatment pulmonary tuberculosis patients January 2015 to January 2016 in our hospital were randomly divided into A,B,C three groups,with 40 cases in each group.Treatment regimen of group A: 2HRZE/4HR; treatment regimen of group B: 2Rft(rifapentine capsules)HZE/4HRft; treatment regimen of group C: 2Rft(rifapentine capsules)HELfx/4HRft.The clinical symptoms,signs and adverse drug reactions were compared between the three groups of patients,observation the changes of blood,urine,liver and kidney function,perform imaging and bacteriological examination to determine the treatment effect.Results Five cases in group A and one case in group B abandoned treatment because of liver damage and severe gastrointestinal reaction,but no one in the 40 cases of group C abandoned treatment.There was no statistically significant difference among three groups in sputum negative conversion rate and focus absorption.The number of cases presenting gastrointestinal reaction and liver damage in group C was significantly smaller than that in group A and group B(P<0.05).Rifampicin was replaced by levofloxacin in two cases of group A as a result of allergy,and no allergy occurred in the other two groups.Conclusion Levofloxacin and rifapentine have good efficacy and few side effects for elderly initial treatment pulmonary tuberculosis,initial treatment regimen for elderly pulmonary tuberculosis patients should be individualized,drugs with few side effects can be used to guarantee smooth proceeding of treatment.

Objective The analysis of correlation between the occurrence of tourette syndrome with one-child family environment. Methods The authors investigated home environment of two groups. One group included 200 patients with tourette syndrome and is the other group included healthy children of the same age in 3 different primary and secondary schools. By comparing with the home environmental factors, parenting styles and parent emotional factors between two groups. Results The instabilities of home environment included bad family relationship, separation between parents, divorce, scolding and even beating children. It showed that anxiety of the direct supervisors among the sickness group were higher than healthy control group as well. Among the ten factors of the Family Environments Scale, the significant differences showed in six factors of affection,cohesion,expressiveness, conflict, intellectual-culture orientation, active-recreational orientation, organization between the two groups. Conclusion So we concluded that ①There is a correlation between the parents relations,parenting styles and the incidence of tourette syndrome; ②An anxiety of the direct supervisor may initiate, even aggravate the incidence of tourette syndrome; ③It is important to convert the education mode and take family overall treatment in order to reduce the incidence and improve the effectiveness of tourette syndrome.

Objective To investigate the isolation rate, distribution and trend of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) in Wenzhou during 2014 to 2016.Methods Sputum or alveolar lavage specimens of patients with suspected pulmonary tuberculosis were collected for mycobacteria culture from January 2014 to December 2016.Mycobacterium culture positive strains were further identified by gene chip, 16S rRNA and hsp65 gene sequencing.SPSS 19.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results After excluding repetitive strains, 3 295 mycobacteria strains (MTB) were isolated from respiratory specimens, included 3 032 mycobacterium tuberculosis complex strains, 238 NTM strains, 20 Gordon genera strains, 3 Nocardia genera strains and 2 Tsukamurella genera strains.The proportion of NTM among confirmed mycobacteria was 8.5% (86/1 006), 6.7% (72/1 079) and 6.8% (80/1 185) in 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively (x2 =2.459,P > 0.05).The overall prevalence of NTM was 7.3 % (238/3 270).There were 15 species of NTM, and the most common NTM strain was Mycobacterium intracellulare (52.5%,125/238), followed by Mycobacterium abscessus (22.7%, 54/238) and Mycobacterium avium (10.1%, 24/238), other species were only accounted for 14.7% (35/238).The ranking of Mycobacterium avium went up rapidly from the fifth in 2014 to the second in 2016 (x2 =18.259, P < 0.01), while proportion of Mycobacterium abscess, dropped from 34.9% (30/86) in 2014 to 17.5% (14/80) in 2016 (x2 =7.335, P<0.01).Among patients from whom the NTM strains were isolated, 56.7% (135/238) were male and most of them were aged 45 years or above (79.8%, 190/238).Conclusions In the past three years, the trend of NTM isolation rate in Wenzhou is steady.The most prevalent NTM species is Mycobacterium intracellulare, followed by Mycobacterium abscessus and Mycobacterium avium.Mycobacterium avium shows a continuously upward trend, while the separation of Mycobacterium abscessus shows a downward trend.

Objective To investigate the effect of oxytocin on the expression of MKP-1 level in the hippocampus of post-traumatic stress disorder rats.Methods Eighteen SD rats were randomly divided into the control group,administration group and the experimental group with 6 rats in each group.The administration group and the experimental group were treated with internationally recognized single prolongation stress (SPS) method to stimulate the rats in order to establish PTSD models.The 14-day oxytocin intervention was given to rats of the administration group after the SPS stimulation within 8 hours.And the behavioral changes of rats were observed by open-field test and Morris water maze test.The changes of MKP-1 mRNA in the hippocampus of rats were detected by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR),and the levels of MKP-1 Protein in the hippocampus of rats were detected by Western Blot.Results (1) Compared with the model group (2.50± 1.05 and 22.16±7.14),the times of the standing and crossing grid section quantities in the open-field test in the administration group(5.16± 1.17and 32.83±5.71) and control group (6.67±2.16 and 39.83± 4.62) significantly decreased (P<0.05).Morris water maze showed that the incubation of the model group was markedly prolonged (P<0.05) compared with that of the administration group,while in spatial probe test,the incubation period of the rats in administration group was prolonged,and the number of wearing stage decreased (P<0.05).(2) Compared with the administration group (1.30±0.03),the expression of MKP-1 mRNA in hippocampus of rats in model group (4.04±0.46) was notably up-regulated (P<0.05).And the protein level of MKP-1 in model group(1.95±0.68) was also increased compared with that in administration group (1.46±0.27) (P<0.05).Conclusions Oxytocin can protect the learning and memory ability and reduce the stress-related performance of rats via regulating the expression of MKP-1.

Objective To investigate the resistance of second-line anti-TBdrugs to baseline strain in patients with multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods Atotal of 52 baseline strains in patients with multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis collected from March 2016 to May 2017 in our hospital were randomly selected. The sensitivity of the nine kinds of second-line anti-TBdrugs was tested, to analyze the proportion of different drug resistance and cross-resistance of similar drugs. Results Among the 9 second-line anti-TBdrugs, the ratio of drug resistance was ofloxacin =levofloxacin(59. 6%, 31/52)>moxifloxacin(30. 8%, 16/52)> amikacin=kanamycin(both 9. 6%,5/52)>paminosalicylic acid=cycloserine(both 7. 7%, 4/52)> capreomycin =prothionamide(both 9. 6%, 3/52). Ofloxacin was completely cross-resistant with levofloxacin, and its cross-resistant rate with moxifloxacin accounted for 51. 6% (15/31). Amikacin was completely cross-resistant with kanamycin, and its cross-resistant rate with capreomycin accounted for 60%. Conclusion The baseline strains of patients with multi-drug resistant pulmonary tuberculosis are seriously resistant to fluoroquinolones. There is resistance to some extent for other second-line anti-tuberculosis drugs. Therefore, second-line drug susceptibility testing should be completed prior to establishing an effective MDR-TBtreatment regimen.
