Methods Based on the NSFC database,the projects on the infectious disease epidemiology(H2609)sponsored from 1987 to 2014 were analyzed. The changes of fund numbers,amounts and research fields were described. Results During the study period,NSFC sponsored 373 projects,including 228 general projects(61.1%),78 youth projects(20.9%)and 67 other projects(18.0%). The average amount of the grant was 358.2 thousand Yuan(20 thousand?8 million). The main sponsored re?search fields were mechanisms of pathogen and immunity(36.2%)and population?based epidemiological studies(33.0%). The top three diseases were hepatitis,HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis. Conclusion The amount of funding on researches of infectious disease epidemiology has increased continuously,which has played an important role in training scientific talents in the field of prevention and control of infectious diseases.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the clinical utilization of carbapenems in a hospital,analyze and evaluate its medication rationality. METHODS:All the 508 medical records of inpatients treated with carbapenems from Jul. 2012 to Jun. 2015 were retro-spectively investigated,the utilization and pathogenic examination of carbapenems were evaluated;by setting the carbapenems eval-uating standard,the medication rationality of carbapenems was evaluated and inappropriate cases were classified and analyzed statis-tically. RESULTS:The drug utilization indexed (DUI) of Imipenem and cilastatin sodium for injection and Meropenem for injec-tion were 0.80 and 1.32,respectively;the total rate of microbial inspection was 95.9%;according to the drug sensitive test result, the rate of drug selection was 62.8%;there were 54 cases(10.6%)of irrational use records,in which,irrational dosage(42.6%) and improper drug selection (31.4%) were the major problems. CONCLUSIONS:There are some inappropriate medication prob-lems in carbapenems utilization in the hospital. Developing the carbapenems utilization evaluation is helpful to discover typical medi-cation problems,which can provide reference for intervention and continuous improvement of rational drug use.

Objectives To investigate the clinical features of clomiphene citrate (CC) resisitant in patients with the polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS). Methods A total of 145 women with PCOS were analyzed in the center for reproductive medicine of our hospital. According to the responses to CC ,patients were divided into two groups:(1)the CC resistant group(n = 32),(2)the CC response group(n = 113). The clinical features were compared between these two groups. Results (1)Body weight,body mass index(BMI),blood pressure and F?G scores were significantly higher in the CC resistant group than those in the CC response group (P < 0.05, respectively).(2)Basic antral follicle counts(AFC),C reaction protein(CRP),fasting insulin(FI)and HOMA?IR in the CC resistant group were significantly higher than those in the CC response group (P < 0.05, respectively),however,no significant difference was observed in sex hormones between these two groups. Conclusion PCOS patients with CC resistant are more likely to have higher body weight,BMI,blood pressure, insulin resistant?indexes and basic AFC ,the clinical doctors should consider these features before the treatment of ovulation induction.

Objective To analyze the correlation between the resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii and the utilization of antimicrobial agents in the hospitalized patients of Beijng Chuiyangliu Hospital,and provide the basis for clinical rational use antimicrobial agents.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted for the drug resistance rate and specimen source of the 2 194 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii from 2010 to 2014 in the hospital and DDDs/DUI of antimicrobial agents was analyzed by Pearson correlation.Results The resistance rate of Acinetobacter baumannii was positively correlated with the DDDs and DUI of imipenem/cilastatin(r=0.991,0.994,all P<0.01), and was positively correlated with the DDDs of cefepime(r=0.934,P=0.020).The resistance rate of Acinetobacter baumannii to amikacin was positively correlated with the DDDs of etimicin(r=0.931,P=0.022).The resistance rate of Acinetobacter baumannii was negatively correlated with the DUI of levofloxacin(r =-0.986,P =0.002). Conclusion The resistance rate of Acinetobacter baumannii was high and there was correlation between the drug resistance and the utilization of some antimicrobial agents.

Objective:To explore the effect of the microenvironment induced by damaged mouse hepatic cells on the conversion of human umbilical cord blood-derived cells into hepatocyte-like cells. Methods: A hepatic injury-like microenvironment was mimicked using carbon tetrachloride damaged mouse hepatic cells, where mononuclear cells (MNC) from human umbilical cord blood were cultured in a compartment separated by trans-well membrane. Histochemical staining, reversed transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and gene sequencing were performed for the information on the conversion of human umbilical cord blood MNC. Results: A number of PAS positive stained cells in MNC co-cultured with damaged mouse hepatic cells were observed after 72 h. Cells expressing mature hepatocyte markers, human albumin (hALB) and human GATA-4 (hGATA-4) mRNA were detected by RT-PCR, which was further confirmed with sequencing. Relevant control groups, MNC co-cultured with normal mouse hepatic cells and MNC cultured alone remained negative. Conclusion: The culture system using damaged mouse hepatic cells as stimulator could be a potential in vitro system for the conversion of human umbilical cord blood-derived cells into hepatocyte-like cells.

Objective To quantify the correlation between isometric and isokinetic tests of core muscles during trunk rotation. Methods The strength of the core muscles of 38 healthy males was measured isometrically and isokinetically ( at 60°/s) during trunk rotation.The left and right peak rotation torque ( LPT,RPT) and the ratio of left to right torque (L/R) were analyzed using correlation and regression analysis and paired t-tests. Results The subjects' LPTs and RPTs were positively correlated ( rL =0.644,P ≤ 0.01 ;rR =0.566,P≤0.01 ) There were significant differences in the L/R ratios determined using the two tests (r=0.663,P≤0.01 ).The regression equations predicting LPT and RPT were yL =22.330 + 0.937x and yR =32.752 +0.847x,respectively.Paired t-tests showed that tL =4.562,P≤0.01 and tR =3.855,P≤0.01 during left or right rotation.There was a significant difference,but there was no significant difference in LPT/RPT. Conclusion Isometric and isokinetic tests of core muscles during trunk rotation give results which are strongly correlated.Either can correctly reflect the maximal strength of core muscles during trunk rotation.Clinicinas may reasonably choose either testing method to assess patients and guide treatment according to the patient's clinical symptoms and the severity of the problem.
