Objective To investigate bacterial spectrum characteristics and distribution of urinary tract infections with different time phase in intensive care unit(ICU).Methods From January 2012 to March 2013,the clinical data of 1330 cases in ICU,treated with urinary catheter indwelling,was retrospectively reviewed.Among them,705 cases were male and 625 cases were female.Their age ranged from 11 to 94 years old,mean (55.4 ± 19.2)years old.Acute physiology and chronic health scores (APACHE Ⅱ) were 1 to 69,mean 17.1 ±9.3.Duration of catheter indwelling ranged from 1 to 28 days,mean 23 days.The urine was collect through catheter via sterile syringe for bacterial culture.The incidence of urinary tract infection,bacterial infection spectrum,composition ratio and bacteria distribution in 1,2 and 4 weeks after admission were recorded.Results Total urinary tract infection cases were 36(2.7％).There were 15 urinary tract infection cases in 625 famale cases(2.4％),There were 21 cases in 705 male cases (3.0％).49 pathogens were obtained,including 32 gram-negative bacilli (65.3％),17 gram-positive cocci (32.7％) and 1 fungus 2.0％.Enterococcus faecium (30.6％),E.coli (22.4％),Acinetobacter baumannii(10.2％),and Klebsiella pneumoniae (10.2％) were the predominant species.According to hospitalized time,the bacteria spectrum distribution showed Gram negative bacilli were 50.0％ (8 pathogens),57.1％ (4 pathogens),76.9％ (20 pathogens) and Gram positive bacteria were 43.8％ (7 pathogens),42.9％ (3 pathogens),23.1％ (6 pathogens) in the differet observed time point,respectively.A fungus was only observed in the first week after admission 6.3％.Concluusions Gram-negative bacilli were predominant bacterial of urinary tract infections in ICU patients.The incidence of fungus infection was low.E.coli,Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae were the predominant species in Gramnegative bacilli.And Enterococcus faecium was the predominant specie in gram-positive cocci.It was similar for gram-negative bacilli and gram-positive cocci in the first two weeks.After two weeks Gram-negative bacilli turned to the main species.

Objective To analyze pathogen spectrum of intra-abdominal infection in patients in an intensive care unit (ICU).Methods Intra-abdominal infections and pathogens of 1 330 patients who admitted to ICU from January 2012 to March 2013 were analyzed retrospectively.Results 283 patients developed intra-abdominal infection,incidence of infection was 21.28%;133 (47.00%)patients were detected 186 isolates of pathogens,the proportion of gram-negative bacilli, gram-positive cocci,and fungi were 68.82%(n=128),28.49%(n= 53),and 2.69%(n=5)respectively.The major gram-negative bacilli were Escherichia coli ,Acinetobacter baumannii ,and Klebsiella pneumoniae ,the major gram-positive cocci were Enterococcus faecium,Staphylococcus aureus ,and Enterococcus faecalis .The detection rates of pathogens after patients stayed in ICU for ≤2,3-7,8-14,and>14 days were 70.43%(n=131),12.90%(n=24),10.22%(n=19), and 6.45%(n =12)respectively;Escherichia coli (n =51 )and Enterococcus faecium (n =21 )were the main pathogens when patients stayed in ICU for ≤48 hours,Acinetobacter baumannii was the main pathogen when patients stayed in ICU for >48 hours.Most intra-abdominal infection occurred after intestinal tract(53.23%)and hepatobiliary system operation (24.19%).39 (29.32%)patients isolated at least two kinds of pathogens,29 of whom isolated 2 kinds of pathogens. Conclusion Most pathogens of intra-abdominal infection in ICU patients are detected following intestinal tract and hepato-biliary operation,and mixed pathogens are common,predominantly gram-negative bacilli.Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecium are the main pathogens when patients stayed in ICU for ≤48 hours,opportunistic pathogens are the main patho-gens when patients stay in ICU for >48 hours.

Objective To retrospectively analyze bacterial time distribution of ICU?acquired infections in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical Uni?versity,so as to provide reference for the early antibiotic use for ICU?acquired infections. Methods A total of 1 330 cases in ICU from Jan. 2012 to Mar. 2013 were collected,the bacterial culture was positive in 254 cases. A total of 1 110 strains were collected from all the patients. Excluding 288 strains which were detected within 48 hours of patients′admission in ICU and 222 strains which were repeatedly detected in the same patients,600 strains were finally enrolled in the statistical analysis. Results The rate of ICU?acquired infections was 19.1%. Postoperative infections accounted for 74.3%,most of which occurred after neurosurgeries,and abdominal,orthopedic operations. Pulmonary infection ranked the first in ICU?acquired infections,accounting for 40.3%,followed by blood stream infection(25.3%),postoperative drainage infection(14.2%)and urinary tract infection (7.3%). The rate of pathogenic bacteria detection was the highest in the first week of patients′admission in ICU,and was getting lower as time went by. Strains detected in ICU mainly were Bauman Acinetobacter,Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Klebsiella pneumonia and Enterococcus faecium,most of strains resulting in infections were gram negative bacilli throughout the time. In addition,the infection rate of fungi was increased at 2 weeks of pa?tients′admission in ICU. Conclusion The treatment of ICU?acquired infections should be targeted at gram negative bacilli. The detection rate of op?portunistic pathogens gradually increased with prolonged stay in ICU,most of which are non?fermentative bacteria. Fungi infections are most likely to occur at 2 weeks of patients′admission in ICU.

A comparison is made on the healthcare systems,economy,informationization environment,developers,investment and compensation mechanisms in nine countries featuring early startup,rich experiences,and relatively higher ratio of success in their development projects.This lead to a discussion focusing on the construction steps and development strategies for regional health informationization,and an analysis of the present regional health informationization overseas,common measures taken,and key factors for successful regional health informationization.Based on these,recommendations were made on development of regional health informationization compliant to China's circumstances.

By means of literature review,the paper made a comparative study of key development projects of healthcare information in China over the last decade,in terms of their project characteristics,economic environment,development entity,investment and compensation practice,development strategy,coverage,experience and promotional values.Setbacks identified include the following:discrepancy in regional development stages of healthcare information; successful pilots are limited to scientific research samples; lack of regional models; systems separation; poor continuity and coordination; waste and insufficiency of resources in the investment and construction among others.The authors recommend a better exchange of experiences in building the regional healthcare information service platforms,greater investment,better compensation mechanism,better top-tier design,and maximized coverage within reach of supervision and technology.

Objective To assess the clinical efficacy and adverse effect of pemetrexed-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment in elderly patients with advanced non-squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods A total of 40 elderly patients with advanced non-squamous NSCLC confirmed by pathology were retrospective analyzed in the study,who received pemetrexed plus cisplatin (group A,n =18) or pemetrexed plus carboplatin (group B,n =22) as the first-line treatment.RECIST was used to assess the efficacy of the treatment and NCI-CTC AE version was used to describe adverse events.Results In the 40 patients,no one received complete response (CR),17 patients showed partial response (PR),16 had stable disease (SD),7 had progress disease (PD),the objective response rate (ORR) was 42.5 ％ (17/40) and the disease control rate (DCR) was 82.5 ％ (33/40).The median progression-free survival (PFS) time was 5.3 months.1 year suvival rate was 63.2 ％ (24/38).In further subgroup analyses,the ORR,DCR,PFS and 1 year suvival rate in group A were higher than those in group B,but they had no statistically significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The drug-related adverse events were myelosuppression,gastrointestinal response,most of which were grade 1 to 2.Conclusion Pemetrexed combined with cisplatin or carboplatin may be recommended as first-line chemotherapy for elderly patients with advanced non-squamous NSCLC because of its safety and efficacy.

Objective To analyze blood stream infections(BSI)in ICU patients,to explore the bacterial spectrum characteristics and time distribu?tion,so as to provide a reference for the clinical use of antibiotics. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out. A total of 1 330 patients admit?ted in our hospital intensive care unit(ICU)from January 2012 to March 2013(15 months)were selected for the study,the occurrence rate of blood stream infections,the bacteria spectrum of it and the bacteria spectrum distribution in different period of time(admitted in ICU for the first week,sec?ond week and later)were analyzed. The subjects were divided into 2 groups(CVC cases and non?CVC cases)depended on CVC indwelling or not. Results There were 971 cases with central venous catheter(CVC),the occurrence of bloodstream infection were 96 cases,the infection rate was 9.89%,including 359 non?CVC cases and 12 blood stream infection cases. The infection rate was 3.34%,and the total blood infection rate was 8.12%. A total of 157 strains of pathogen were isolated,among which 16 strains were isolated from non?CVC cases. Infection of gram?negative bacilli, gram?positive cocci and fungi were 56.7%,32.5%and 10.8%,respectively. Staphylococcus(16.6%),Bauman acinetobacter(15.9%),Enterococ?cus(14.6%),Pseudomonasaeruginosa(10.2%)and Klebsiella(10.2%)were the most common bacteria. For the distribution of time,in non?CVC cases gram?negative bacilli were more than other bacilli in the first and second week(3 vs 1,4 vs 1)in ICU,more gram?positive cocci( 5 vs 2) were isolated after two weeks,no fungi were detected;in CVC cases,gram negative bacilli were in a dominant position all the time(the number of gram negative bacilli,gram positive bacteria and fungi were 31 cases,24 cases and 3 cases in the first week respectively,23 cases,12 cases,11 cas?es in the second week,26 cases,8 cases and 3 cases after the second week),the proportion of each species in the first week were 53.4%,41.4%and 5.2%,respectively,50%,26.1%and 23.9%in the second week,70.3%,21.6%and 8.1%after the second week . The highest fungemia was found in the second week. Conclusion For the 1st 2 weeks in ICU,the most common bacilli was gram negative bacilli with BSI. After 2 weeks admitted in the ICU,it was mainly gram negative bacilli in CVC cases,and mainly gram positive cocci in non?CVC cases. In the 2nd week,fungemia had the? highest probability in CVC cases,and it appeared low possibility in non?CVC cases. Non?CVC cases have a lower risk of blood stream infection.

Objective To investigate the apoptotic effect of petasin on myeloma RPMI 8226 cells and the mechanisms.Methods The inhibition of petasin on the proliferation of myeloma RPMI 8226 cells was tested by trypan blue assay.Apoptosis of RPMI 8226 cells was measured by terminal-deoxynueleotidyl transferase mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL)assay and Hoechst 33258 staining assay.Effects of petasin on caspase-3,8 and 9 expressions,phosphorylation of ERK1/2,MEK(p-ERK1/2 ;p-MEK)and p38MAPK(p-p38MAPK)protein were analyzed by Western blot.Results Incubation by petasin for 24 h,48 h or 72 h could significantly inhibit the pro-liferation of myeloma RPMI 8226 cells (P <0.01,P <0.01,P <0.01).Petasin induced the apoptosis of myeloma RPMI 8226 cells in time-and concentration-dependent manners (P <0.05,P <0.05).Caspase inhibitor pretreat-ment could significantly inhibit the apoptosis of myeloma cells.After cultured with petasin for 72 h,the expressions of caspase-3,8 and 9 were obviously enhanced (P <0.05,P <0.01,P <0.05)and phosphorylation of p-p38MAPK of RPMI8226 cells was significantly increased (P <0.01).However,phosphorylation of p-ERK1/2 and p-MEK was decreased significantly (P <0.01,P <0.05).Conclusion Petasin can inhibit the proliferation of myeloma RPMI 8226 cells and induce apoptosis.The mechanism may be related to the activation of caspase-3,8 and 9 proteins and the changes in phosphorylation of p38MAPK,ERK1/2 and MEK.
