Objective To investigate the relationship between the resistance of the Klebsiella pneumoni-ae and the Klebsiella pneumoniae plasmid pNDM-LJ carrying blaNDM-1 by high-throughput DNA sequencing. Methods High-throughput DNA sequencing was carried out by the Illumina Miseq platform , and sequencing data were assembled by Edena software. Contigs were annotated by the RAST server and analyzed by the BLAST server. Results The plasmid pNDM-LJ was 54-kb in size with a GC content of 49%. The plasmid encoded 52 putative functional genes and belonged to the IncX3 group in incompatible classifications. Analysis of the plasmid sequence revealed high similarity with other IncX3 plasmids. The blaNDM-1 gene was located in a complicated gene environment possibly constructed by several transposition events. The 5′ and 3′ ends of the blaNDM-1 gene were adjacent to the ISAba125 and IS 26 respectively , forming a 10.8-kb transposon-like structure. Conclusion The plasmid pNDM-LJ carried the blaNDM-1 gene being resistant to carbapenems and played a possibly impor-tant role in transmission of blaNDM-1 in China.

Background and purpose: Regional lymph node metastasis was significantly associated with the prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study was designed to compare paclitaxel liposome plus cisplatin (LP) with gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) in patients with regional lymph node metastasis of advanced NSCLC as a ifrst-line treatment. Methods:A total of 55 patients were randomly assigned to receive either liposomal paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) and cisplatin (75 mg/m2) or gemcitabine (1 000 mg/m2) and cisplatin (75 mg/m2) every 3 weeks. Results:Objective response rate (ORR) of lung primary foci was 37.9%in the LP arm and 30.8%in the GP arm (P>0.05) and the disease control rate (DCR) was 91.3%and 80.8%respectively (P>0.05);ORR of regional metastasis lymph node was higher in the LP arm (44.8%vs 15.4%, P<0.05).There was no signiifcant difference in DCR (93.1%vs 73.1%, P=0.101), although slight trends favoring paclitaxel liposome were seen;There was signiifcant difference in median overall survival (17.0 vs 12.0 months, P<0.05). LP was associated with significantly less thrombocytopenia and gastrointestinal side effects (P<0.05), but no signiifcant difference was observed in hyphemia, leucopenia, hepatotoxicity, renal toxicity and allergic reactions (P>0.05). Conclusion: Liposomal paclitaxel plus cisplatin is superior to gemcitabine plus cisplatin with less toxicity and better tolerated, it deserves further research and clinic application for patients with regional lymph node metastasis of advanced NSCLC.

OBJECTIVETo study the different expressions of glypican-3 in lung squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma and explore the association of glypican-3 with the prognosis of the patients.
METHODSGlypican-3 expression was detected immunohistochemically in the tumor tissues and adjacent tissues from 48 cases of lung squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used for survival analysis of the patients.
RESULTSGlypican-3 expression was detected in the tumor tissues in 29.2% (14/48) of the cases, but not in the adjacent tissues. Of the 22 patients with lung squamous cell carcinoma, 12 (54.5%) showed positive glypican-3 expression in the tumor tissue, a rate significantly higher than that in patients with lung adenocarcinoma [7.7% (2/26), P<0.01]. In all the glypican-3-positive cases, the tumor tissues showed stronger glypican-3 expression in cases with lymph node metastasis or poor tumor differentiation. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis did not indicate a significant correlation of glypican-3 expression with the prognosis of the lung cancer patients.
CONCLUSIONPatients with lung squamous cell carcinoma have higher glypican-3 expressions in the tumor tissues than those with lung adenocarcinoma, suggesting the value of glypican-3 protein as a potential marker to detect lung squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective:To investigate the distribution characteristics of virulence-related phenotypes/genotype, capsular serotype, drug resistance phenotypes, and sequence typing (ST) of Klebsiella pneumoniae in patients living in Zhongjiang county, improve clinical understanding, and provide evidence for the prevention and control of bacterial drug resistance and clinical rational drug use. Methods:The data of 135 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from patients who received treatment in Zhongjiang County People's Hospital from July to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Bacterial identification and drug sensitivity testing were performed using the WalkAway-40Plus automated microbiology system. Strains with a high viscosity phenotype were identified using wire drawing experiments. Hypervirulence-associated capsular serotype and virulence genes were verified by polymerase chain reaction. ST of Klebsiella pneumoniae strain was identified using multilocus sequence typing. Results:Strains with a high viscosity phenotype were identified in 50.4% of the 135 strains. 54.1%, 54.8%, and 54.1% of the strains were positive for virulence genes iucA, iroN, rmpA. The proportion of strains with capsular Serotype K1 or K2 was 11.9% and 15.6%, respectively. A total of 65 kinds of ST were identified, with ST23 and ST37 being the most common, accounting for 11.1% and 6.7%, respectively. The resistance rate of the strains to 16 kinds of antibiotics was 0.0%-25.2%, and the resistance rate to Carbapenem antibiotics, Amikacin, and Tigecycline was less than 1%. The positive rate of virulence gene of strains with a high viscosity phenotype was significantly higher than that of strains without a high viscosity phenotype ( P < 0.001), and its resistance rate to Cephalosporin was significantly lower in strains with a high viscosity phenotype than that in strains without a high viscosity phenotype ( P < 0.001). Conclusion:Klebsiella pneumoniae in Zhongjiang County is characterized by "high virulence and low drug resistance". It is necessary to continuously monitor the changes in the virulence and drug resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae in Zhongjiang County, Sichuan Province, and be alert to the rapid dissemination of highly virulent strains.

Objective:To evaluate the value of 18F-FDG PET/CT for preoperative localization of epileptogenic foci in refractory epilepsy patients with negative MRI. Methods:Clinical data (550 lobes) of 55 epilepsy patients (38 males, 17 females, age (20.0±8.1) years) with negative MRI who underwent preoperative 18F-FDG PET/CT-MRI between January 2014 and June 2020 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University were retrospectively analyzed. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of 18F-FDG PET/CT, video electroencephalogram (VEEG), PET/CT+ VEEG and PET/CT-VEEG for localizing epileptogenic foci were calculated using stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) and the outcomes of at least 1 year of postoperative follow-up as reference standards. χ2 test was used to compare the efficiencies of different examination modalities for unilobar, multilobar and all patients. Results:The correct lateralization rate of epileptogenic foci was 92.6%(25/27) using PET/CT. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, PPV and NPV of PET/CT for localization of epileptogenic foci were 65.1%(54/83), 77.9%(364/467), 76.0%(418/550), 34.4%(54/157) and 92.6%(364/393), respectively. The sensitivities of PET/CT-VEEG for localization of epileptogenic foci in all patients and patients with multilobar epilepsy were higher than those of VEEG alone (75.9%(63/83) vs 45.8%(38/83), 68.6%(35/51) vs 31.4%(16/51); χ2 values: 15.80, 14.16, both P<0.001). The specificities of PET/CT+ VEEG for localization of epileptogenic foci in all patients and patients with unilobar epilepsy were higher than those of VEEG alone (97.6%(456/467) vs 94.6%(442/467), 97.9%(282/288) vs 94.1%(271/288); χ2 values: 5.66, 5.48; P values: 0.017, 0.019). The sensitivity of PET/CT-VEEG (PET/CT and VEEG concordance) for localization of epileptogenic foci was higher than that of PET/CT+ VEEG (PET/CT and VEEG discordance) (8/9 vs 28.4%(21/74); χ2=10.40, P=0.001), and its specificity and accuracy were higher than those of PET/CT-VEEG (PET/CT and VEEG discordance) (93.4%(57/61) vs 71.7%(291/406), 92.9%(65/70) vs 72.1%(346/480); χ2 values: 13.23, 13.96; both P<0.001). Conclusions:18F-FDG PET/CT can localize and lateralize epileptogenic foci in patients with negative MRI. The combination of 18F-FDG PET/CT and VEEG improves the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for epileptogenic foci detection. 18F-FDG PET/CT is more accurate in detecting epileptogenic foci when it is concordant with VEEG.
