Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2011;18(15):2037-2038
ObjectiveTo counsel the life style from the first trimester based on the fasting hyperglysemia to decrease the rate of GDM and adverse effect of it. MethodsThe pregnancy women with fasting hyperglysemia were recruited. All subjects were divided into two groups, one was counselled the life style from the first trimester but the other not. The pregnant outcome were compared. ResultsIn the study group 1 100 with complete information and 29 were abnormal glucose intolerance, 1 120 of 47 in control. The rate of GDM or GIGT,hypertensive disease,spontaneous abortion,premature dilivery, polyhydramnios, fetal macrosomia, fetal growth restriction, neonatal respiratory distress syndrome and the mean GHbA1c was lower than that in control ( x2 = 8.110,6.124,5.815,4.518,6.355,3.957,5.453,4.619, t = 3.385, all P < 0. 05 ). But the body mass index at labor( t = 0.698 ), infection disease ( x2 =0.082),mean neonatal weight (t = 2.09 )and neonatal hypoglysemia (x2 = 0.035 )of term labor had no significant differences. ( t = 0.698, χ2 = 0.082,t = 2.090, χ2 = 0.035, all P > 0.05 ). ConclusionCounseling the life style from the first trimester based on the fasting hyperglysemia could decrease the rate of GDM or GIGT and improve the pregnancy result.

Objective To investigate the resistance to fluoroquinolones and amikacin in escherichia coti isolates. Methods ESBLs-producers were detected by CLSI phenotypic confirmatory test and susceptibilities were tested by agar dilution method. Results 33. 8% of 361 isolates were ESBLs-producers. The resistant rate of ciprofloxacin,levofloxacin, amikaxin was 93.4%, 90.9%, 13.1% in ESBLs-produeers, and that was 69.5%,68.6 %, 19.7 % in non-ESBLs-producers, respectively. Conclusion Amikaxin is active against most escherichia coli isolates; those isolates are highly resistant to fluoroquinolones, especially, in ESBLs-producers.

objective To detect MRSE and resistance in staphylococcus epidermidis isolates. Methods MRSE isolates were detected by cefoxitin disk test and susceptibilities were tested by agar dilution method. Results 79.7% of 128 isolates were MRSE strains with resistance to most antimicrobial agents, but those isolates were still susceptible to vancomycin and teicoplanin. Resistant rate in MRSE was higher than that in MSSE to most antimicrobial agents except penicillins, glycopeptides and macrolides. Conclusion MRSE with multi-resistance ale highly prevalent in staphylococcus epidermidis isolates and no isolate is resistant to glycopeptides.

In a previous study, we cloned popW from Ralstonia solanacearum strain ZJ3721, coding PopW, a new harpin protein. The procaryotically expressed PopW can induce resistance to Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), enhance growth and improve quality of tobacco, when sprayed onto tobacco leaves. Here, we constructed an expression vector pB- popW by cloning popW into the bionary vector pBI121 and transformed it into Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105 via freeze-thaw method. Tobacco (Nicotiana tobacum cv. Xanthi nc.) transformation was conducted by infection of tobacco leaf discs with recombinant A. tumefaciens. After screening on MS medium containing kanamycin, PCR and RT-PCR analysis, 21 T3 lines were identified as positive transgenic. Genomic intergration and expression of the transferred gene were determined by PCR and RT-PCR. And GUS staining analysis indicated that the protein expressed in transgenic tobacco was bioactive and exhibited different expression levels among lines. Disease bioassays showed that the transgenic tobacco had enhanced resistance to TMV with biocontrol efficiency up to 54.25%. Transgenic tobacco also exhibited enhanced plant growth, the root length of 15 d old seedlings was 1.7 times longer than that of wild type tobacco. 60 d after transplanting to pots, the height, fresh weight and dry weight of transgenic tobacco were 1.4, 1.7, 1.8 times larger than that of wild type tobacco, respectively.

Objective To study the role of suppressor of cytokine signaling ( SOCS ) in the pathogenesis of primary biliary cirrhosis( PBC),the levels of SOCS protein and the changes of function of dendritic cell(DC) were respectively observed from PBC patients.MethodsThe study population consisted of 10 patients of PBC and 8 healthy controls.Phenotypic analysis of cultured peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC)-derived DC was performed by flow cytometry (FCM),such as CD83,CD86 and human leukocyte antigen DR (HLA-DR).The levels of interleukin-10 (IL-10),interferon-γ( IFN-γ) and IL-12 in culture supematant of DC were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA ).The protein levels of SOCS1 and SOCS3 were detected by Western blot ( WB ).The features of changes in these parameters were analyzed between the two groups.ResultsThe expression of CD83,CD86 and HLA-DR in PBC patients were ( 79.4 ± 4.8 ) %,( 86.5 ± 6.3 ) % and (90.0 ± 3.5 ) %,which were significantly higher than those in healthy control group[ (68.3 ±4.1 )%,(74.2 ±6.3)% and (83.6 ±7.6)% ],respectively (t =5.340,4.120,2.514,P <0.05).The levels of IL-12 and IFN-γin PBC patients were (53.5 ± 11.1)and (32.0 ±9.0) ng/L,which were significantly higher than those in healthy control group[ (32.1 ± 10.7) and (15.4 ± 8.1 ) ng/L; t =4.123,3.818,P < 0.01 ].There were not any significant difference of IL-10 level between PBC patients [ (7.0 ± 4.6) ng/L ] and the healthy controls [ ( 5.8 ± 4.2) ng/L; t =0.563,P > 0.05 ].The proteins levels of SOCS1 and SOCS3 in PBMC-derived DC from PBC group were decreased significantly than those in healthy control group.ConclusionsThe results suggest that the PBMC-derived DC in PBC patients has greater ability of potent maturation and antigen presentation function.The decreased expression of SOCS levels may be associated with the excessive immunological reaction and the breakdown of self-tolerance.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the genotypes of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)and its resistance.METHODS A total of 73 MRSA clinical isolates were collected in Anhui Province,MIC of sixteen different antibacterial agents against the isolates were determined by agar dilution method.PCR amplified the mec associated hypervariable region(HVR)of MRSA,and the genotypes were classified based on the fragments of amplified products.The correlation of genotypes and antimicrobial resistance was analyzed.RESULTS Seventy three strains of MRSA from Anhui Province were grouped into A,B and C genotypes based on HVR polymorphism,and respectively 17.8%,23.3%,and 58.8%.All strains were sensitive to vancomycin.CONCLUSIONS MRSA is multi-drug resistant and can be divided into 3 genotypes based on the HVR PCR amplified products.HVR PCR method is a rapid and convenient method for molecular epidemiology study of MRSA infections.
