Objective To investigate the necessity of clamping the indwelling catheters before removal in patients with cervical cancer postoperatively. Methods A total of 198 cases of patients with cervical cancer after radical hysterectomy were divided into the study group (70 cases) and the control group (128 cases) randomly according to operation time. In the study group the catheters were clamped intermittently by patients 2 days before removal, while in the control group the catheters were removed without clamping. The rate of recatheterization, urinary tract infection, as well as the residual urinary volume were compared between groups. Results There were no significant differences in the rate of urinary tract infection and recatheterization between the two groups (P>0.05). The residual urinary volume was significantly higher in the study group than that in the control group ( χ2=10.293, P=0.016). Conclusions There may be no positive effect of training the bladder function by clamping the indwelling catheters before its removal in patients after radical hysterectomy, besides, it can not change the risk of recatheterization and can increase the residual urine in the bladder 24 hours after removal of the catheter.

OBJECTIVE To understand the drug-resistant status of Acinetobacter baumanii and provide scientific basis for infection treatment.METHODS Eight multidrug-resistant A.baumannii(MDR-AB) strains isolated from nosocomial inpatients in intensive care unit(ICU) were collected in May 2007 and tested for drug sensitivity and MIC determination as well.We typed A.baumannii isolates with pulsed-field gel electrophoresis(PFGE) to determine whether they derived from the same clone.RESULTS Four isolates from nosocomial inpatients were resistant to multiple antibiotics including carbapenem.The PFGE types identified from eight isolates were same.All A.baumannii isolates are closely related.CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of nosocomial infection is due to transmission of the same strains among the patients in ICU.This finding highly suggests that isolate 1 was the source of this nosocomial infection and the problem of hand hygiene maybe the main transmission route.

Objective To assess the value of C-reactive protein(CRP) for the prognosis of acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Methods 56 acute pulmonary embolism patients, confirmed by spiral computed tomography (sCT), magnetic resonance imaging(MRI), or pulmonary angiography (CTPA). CRP as well as electrocardiogram (ECG), echocardiography(UCG), blood gas analysis, were taken after admission. Results Among these patients,24 cases with higher CRP(≥10 mg/L),were diagnosed as massive (50.0%), sub-massive PE(45.8%), mini-massive (4.2%) or died(25.0%). 24 cases (100.0%) showed right heart dysfunction and 24 cases showed pulmonary hy-pertension on UCG, right ventricular 20 (83.8%) on ECG, 22 cases (91.7%) showed hypoxemia. 8 cases (33.3%) had syncope,and 9 cases (37.5%) had cardiogenic shock. CRP was lower than 10 mg/L in 32 patients, among whom,3 cases (9.4%) were with massive PE,6 cases (18.8%) were with sub-massive PE,23(71.8%) were with small PE,1 cases(6.3%) died. 13 (40.6%) had right heart dysfunction and 16(50.6%) had pulmona-ry hypertension on UCG, right ventricular on ECG in 15 cases (46.9%), hypoxemia in 11 cases (34.4%), syncope in 2 cases (6.3%), cardiogenic shock in 4 cases (12.5%). The occurrence of massive PE, mortality (P<0.01) and sub-massive PE (P<0.05)were statistically different between the groups with higher CRP and the groups with lower CRP. The ratio of right heart dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension, right ventricular overloading, hypoxemia had statistical significance (P<0.01). There was statistical significance in the occurrence of syncope, cardiogenic shock (P<0.05). Conclusions CRP can be used as a parameter for PE, and can be used to stratify risk levels for severi-ty and assess the effectiveness of treatment.

Objective To analyze the VP1-VP4 genetic region of enterovirus 71 ( EV71 ) strains isolated from children with severe or mild hand, foot and mouth disease ( HFMD) in Shenzhen in 2012. Methods EV71 strains were isolated from five children with mild HFMD and five children with severe HFMD in Shenzhen in 2012.Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR) method was used to amplify the sequence of VP1-VP4 genes of EV71 strains.The sequences of the amplified products were analyzed by comparing with those of the EV71 reference strains ( A, B and C genotypes) published in Gen-Bank using nucleotide alignment, amino acid alignment and phylogenetic tree analysis.Results The homo-geneity between the EV71 strains isolated from severe and mild cases was 95.1%-98.2% in nucleotides and 99.2%-100% in amino acids.The VP1-VP4 nucleotide sequences of 5 strains isolated from severe cases and 5 strains from mild cases in Shenzhen shared 87.9%-97.8% homologies in nucleotides and 97.3%-99.9% homologies in amino acids with the genotype C EV71 reference strain.The EV71 strains isolated from children in Shenzhen were highly similar with the EV71 strain (FJ439769) isolated in Fuyang in 2008 and the one isolated in Jingdezhen in 2011 (JQ806378, C4a subtype) in nucleotide sequences.Mutations at the residue 31 in the VP1 region ( N→D ) were detected in 3 strains isolated from children with severe HFMD.Conclusion All of the 10 EV71 strains isolated in Shenzhen in 2012 belonged to the sub-genotype C4a.The mutation ( aa31 N→D) in the VP1 region of EV71 might be related to the different clinical mani-festations of HFMD cases in Shenzhen area.

The PET tracer 5-([11C]methyloxy)-L-tryptophan (5-(11)CMTP) was prepared by nucleophilic fluorination and alkylation reaction via a two-step procedure in order to develop specific tumor probe. The biodistribution and microPET imaging of 5-(11)CMTP were executed. The results unveiled that the overall radiochemical yield with no decay correction was (14.6 ±7.2) %, the radiochemical purity was more than 95% and high uptake and long retention time of 5-(11)CMTP in liver, kidney and blood were observed but low uptake in brain and muscle were found, furthermore, high uptake of 5-(11)CMTP in tumor tissue was observed. It seems that 5-(11)CMTP will be a potential amino acid tracer for tumors imaging with PET.
