Objective: To study the effect of metastasis suppressor gene Kail/CD82 on the cell proliferation of Hep-2 cell line. Methods: Recombinant adenovirus rAd-Kail was amplified, purified, and was used to transfect laryngo-carcinoma Hep-2 cell line. Cells transfected with blank vector and untransfected cells served as controls. MTT assay was used to assess the influence of Kail gene on proliferation of Hep-2 cells; RT-PCR was used to examine the expression of Kail gene in cells of different groups. Results: The titer of rAd-Kail reached 6 X 1010 PFU/ml after expansion and purification. When the concentration of the adenovirus was 30 MOI, the transfection rate of Hep-2 cells could be higher than 90%. MTT assay showed that the cell proliferation abilities were similar in the two control groups, and the proliferation ability of cells in the Kail transfection group was significantly lower than that in the non-transfected group (P<0. 05) ,with the inhibitory rate in the Kail group being 29%. Conclusion: The Kail/CD82 gene can inhibit the proliferation of Hep-2 cells.

Objective To investigate the detection of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs)in a hospital, evaluate the efficacy of multi-disciplinary team(MDT)on management of MDROs,and provide guidance for effective control on MDRO infection.Methods From October 2013 to September 2014,compliance to comprehensive inter-vention measures in clinical departments in different stages as well as detection of MDROs from patients were com-pared respectively.Results Compliance to comprehensive intervention measures showed an overall upward trend from the fourth quarter of 2013 to the first,second,and third quarters of 2014,difference was statistically signifi-cant (all P <0.001 ).From the fourth quarter of 2013 to the third quarter of 2014,the percentage of the major MDRO strains in the same species of bacteria were:methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)52.34%, 45.45%,48.95%,and 26.25% respectively;carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB)64.42%, 63.07%,59.87%,and 43.09% respectively;multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDRPA)42.11 %, 41 .82%,29.33%,and 17.52% respectively;the detection rate of MRSA,CRAB,and MDRPA showed an overall downward trend,difference among different stages were statistically significant (all P <0.001 ).Detection rates of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE)and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE)were both low (<5%),difference among different stages were not statistically significant (all P >0.05).Conclusion MDT on man-agement of MDROs is helpful for reducing the emergence and spread of MDROs.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of pressure support ventilation ( PSV ) in the infants undergoing laparoscopic hernia repair under sevoflurane anesthesia. Methods Thirty ASA physical statusⅠpediatric children, aged 9 months-1 yr, weighing 8.0-11.5 kg, undergoing elective laparoscopic hernia repair, were randomly assigned into 3 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table: pressure control ventilation ( PCV) used for muscle relaxants in combination with low?concentration sevoflurane group ( group PCV1 ) , PCV used for high?concentration sevoflurane group ( group PCV2 ) , and PSV used for low?concentration sevoflurane group ( group PSV) . Anesthesia was induced with inhalation of 4%-6%sevoflurane and iv fentanyl 2 μg∕kg and succinylcholine 1.5 mg∕kg. The pediatric children were endotracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated. In PCV1 and PCV2 groups, PCV was used during operation. In group PSV, PCV was used first after intubation, and then PSV was applied after spontaneous breathing recovered. Anesthesia was maintained as follows: in group PCV1 , the end?tidal concentration of sevoflurane was maintained at 2.5% - 3.0%, and cisatracurium besylate 0.1 mg∕kg was injected intermittently as required; in group PCV1 , the end?tidal concentration of sevoflurane was maintained at 3.5%-4.0%; in group PSV, the end?tidal concentration of sevoflurane was maintained at 2.5%-3.0%, and succinylcholine 1.0 mg∕kg was injected intravenously before pneumoperitoneum. Narcotrend index value was maintained at 50-60 in PCV1 and PSV groups, or at 37-45 in PCV2 group. Heart rate ( HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were recorded before induction of anesthesia (baseline), at the beginning of pneumoperitoneum, at 5 and 10 min of pneumoperitoneum, at the end of pneumoperitoneum, at the end of operation and immediately after extubation. The time interval from the end of surgery to extubation was recorded. Results Pulse oxygen saturation was 100% during anesthesia, and>95% during recovery from anesthesia in the three groups. Compared with the baseline value, HR was significantly faster, and MAP was increased during extubation in PCV1 and PCV2 groups, and no significant change was found in HR and MAP at each time point in group PSV. The time interval from the end of surgery to extubation was 30.3± 5.4, 18.4±4.3 and (4.1±1.2) min in PCV1, PCV2 and PSV groups, respectively. Compared with PCV1 and PCV2 groups, the time interval from the end of surgery to extubation was significantly shortened in group PSV. Conclusion When PSV is applied in the infants undergoing laparoscopic hernia repair under sevoflurane anesthesia, it can provide adequate ventilation, recovery from anesthesia is rapid, and no cardiovascular responses occur during extubation.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of tigecycline in treatment of health-care-associated pneumonia (HAP ) caused by extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (XDRAB ). Methods Clinical data of patients who used tigecycline for the treatment of XDRAB HAP in intensive care units of a hospital from March 2013 to June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Results XDRAB isolated from 31 patients with HAP were all sensitive to tigecycline,the resistance rates to carbapenems and sulbactams (including cefopera-zone-sulbactam,SCF)were all 100%,17 cases (54.84%)were mixed infection.Combined use rates of tigecycline and SCF were 85.71 %(12/14)in respiratory intensive care unit(RICU)and 47.06%(8/17)in general intensive care unit(GICU).Of 31 patients,the cure rate,effective rate,bacterial clearance rate,and antimicrobial adverse reac-tion rate were 29.03%,45.16%,61 .29%,and 16.13% respectively,no serious adverse drug reactions occurred. In RICU group and GICU group,the cure rates were 42.86% and 17.65% respectively,effective rates were 71 .43% and 23.53% respectively,and bacterial clearance rates were 78.57 % and 47.06% respectively,difference in effective rate between two groups was significant (P <0.05).Among patients receiving combination of tigecycline and SCF as well as not receiving combined SCF,the cure rates were 35.00% and 18.18% respectively,effective rates were 60.00% and 18.18% respectively,and bacterial clearance rates were 65.00% and 54.55% respectively, difference in effective rate between two groups was significant (P <0.05).Conclusion Tigecycline has a good clini-cal efficacy and little adverse reaction in treating XDRAB HAP;tigecycline combined with SCF is a good choice.
