Objective To study the antimicrobial resistance of isolated pathogens from surgical infections in Hubei area.Methods The diameters of the inhibition zones of surgical isolates around antibiotic susceptibility test discs in 15 hospitals were computerfiled and analysed by the software of “WHONET 4” according to NCCLS published in 1999.Results] A total of 1314 surgical isolates were collected between October 1998 and September 1999. S.aureus, P.aeruginosa, E.coli, Enterobacter sp. and CNS were the main microorganisms. 44 6% of staphylococcus was resistant to oxacillin. Imipenem, amikacin, ceftazidime and ciprofloxacin were most active against Gram negative bacilli with the sensitities (in descending order) of 84 4% to 57 2%.[WT5”HZ] Conclusion Antimicrobial resistance should be seriously considered during surgical therapy and prohylaxis with antimicrobial agents . The tendency to antimicrobial resistance of clinical isolates should be followed up continuously.

Background Application of available technology and objective indexes are very important for the early diagnosis,monitoring and therapeutic evaluation of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG).Many studies have determined retinal damage in structure and function in POAG.However,the study on the association of structural damage and functional abnormality in early POAG is still lack.Objective This study was to evaluate the relationship between structural and functional changes of retina in early stage of POAG.Methods A prospectively pilot study was performed under the approval of Ethic Committee of Shenzhen Eye Hospital from January 2011 to June 2013.Based on Helsinki Declaration,written informed consent was obtained from subject prior to entering the cohort.Ninety-five eyes of 95 POAG patients were included as the study group,and 41 eyes of 41 non-glaucoma subjects were enrolled at the same period as controls.The structural parameters of retinas were measured using RTVue-100 OCT and Cirrus HD-OCT respectively,including macular ganglion cell complex (GCC)-Avg thickness and peripapillary retinal neural fibril layer (RNFL)-Avg thickness;and the functional parameters of retinas were obtained by Humphrey visual filed analyzer and RETI scan 3.15 system respectively,including MD of visual field and PhNR of flash electroretinogram (F-ERG).The associations between the GCC or RNFL thickness and M D or amplitude of PhNR were evaluated by linear and curvilinear regression models.Results The MD,GCC-Avg,RNFL-Avg and PhNR amplitude were (-0.68±1.72)dB,(97.17± 4.82)μm,(102.51±8.74) μm and (49.61±11.01)μV respectively in the control subjects,and those in the POAG patients were (-10.82±9.87) dB,(75.07±12.29) μm,(69.09±12.96) μm and (28.38± 11.52) μV,showing significant differences between them (t =6.549,11.118,-15.061,9.956,all at P=0.001).The curvilinear regression model appeared to better describe the relationship between GCC thickness and MD (R2 =0.595,F=97.089,P＜0.001) ;while a linear regression model seemed to be better fit for the relationship between GCC thickness and amplitude of PhNR (R2=0.437,F=103.413,P＜0.001).RNFL thickness analysis showed the similar regression models with MD and amplitude of PhNR as GCC thickness,but R2 values were higher between the RNFL thickness and MD (R2 =0.606,F =101.666,P＜0.001) or amplitude of PhNR (R2 =0.454,F=54.983,P＜0.001).Conclusions Both GCC thickness and RNFL thickness show a curvilinear relationship with MD and a linear relationship with amplitude of PhNR.Goodness-of-fit of RNFL thickness is superior to GCC thickness.

In order to research into the relationship between atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), aldosterone (Aldo) and pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH), as well as normal pregnancy, the plasma concentrations of ANP and Aldo from normal pregnant women. PIH patients and their fetuses were measured by radioimmunoassay. It was found that maternal venous Aldo and ANP were higher in normal pregnant women than those in non-pregnant women. The plasma ANP was higher in PIH patients than that in normal pregnant women while plasma Aldo was lower. The plasma concentration of ANP was higher in the fetuses of PIH patients than that in the normal controls, but Aldo was lower. It is concluded that ANP concentration correlates significantly to the severity of PIH, and may be used for an early diagnosis of PIH.

Objective To study the correlation between coronary lesion and Cystatin C (CyC),Nitric Oxide (NO)and Super oxide dismutase,accumulate the clinical experience in prevention and diagnose of Coronary Heart Disease (CHD)by analy-zing the contents of serum Cystatin C (CyC),Nitric Oxide and Superoxide Dismutase in patients with coronary lesion.Meth-ods According to their severity of coronary artery lesion,all cases were divided into four groups:Normal compared group (40 cases);Simple branch pathological group (44 cases);Double branch pathological group (43 cases):Multi-branch patho-logical group (35 cases).All cases were tested CyC,NO,SOD and hs-CRP in serum.Results The level of CyC and hs-CRP were increased gradually from normal group to multi-branch group.The level of NO and SOD were decreased gradually from normal group to multi-branch group.There were significant differences the levels of CyC,NO,SOD and hs-CRP among the four groups.Coronary lesion Gensini in the CHD patients had significant positive relationship to the level of CyC or hs-CRP respectively (r=0.473,0.429),had significant negative relationship to the level of NO or SOD respectively (r=-0.356, 0.384)(P<0.05).CyC in the CHD patients had significant positive relationship to the level of hs-CRP (r=0.458),had sig-nificant negative relationship to the level of NO or SOD respectively (r=-0.426,0.484,P<0.05).Conclusion By aggra-vation of coronary artery lesion,the level of CyC increased,reduced the contents of NO,SOD,aroused endothelial dysfunc-tion,induced occurrence and aggravation of coronary artery lesion.CyC,NO and SOD play important mark in the assistant diagnosis of the disease.
