Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria in children with urinary tract infection.Methods All data were analyzed retrospectively.Middle segment urine samples from 573 outpatients and inpatients in children were collec-ted,cultured and identified for pathogenic bacteria by the way of ATB apparatus during Jan.2005-Dec.2007,and the drug resistance of positively cultured bacteria was tested with disc agar diffusion method.Extended spectrum ?-lactamases(ESBLs) were determined by phenotypic comfirmatory test according to the criteria of National Committee for Clinical Laboratory(NCCLS),and the identifications of methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus(MRS) and high level aminoglycoside resistance(HLAR) were carried out by the methods recommended from NCCLS too.Results Four hundred and eighty-two pathogenic strains were isolated from urine culture of children during 3 years,in which 385 strains(79.9%) were gram-negative(G-) and 97 strains(20.1%) were gram-positve(G+).The primary G-bacterium was Escherichia coli which accounted for 41.1%(198 strains),and the primary G+ bacterium was Enterococcus which accounted for 14.7%(71 strains).All the strains of Escherichia coli and klebsiella pneumoniae were sensitive to imipenem.Their resistance rates to sulperazone,amikacin and nitrofurantoin were less than 9.7%,while the rates to piperacillin,ceftazidime,ciprofloxacin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole were more than 50%.ESBLs-producing strains accounted for 59.2% in Escherichia coli and 52.7% in klebsiella pneumoniae.Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed high multi-drug resistance.All the Enterococcus strains were sensitive to vancomycin.The resistance rate to nitrofurantoin was less than 8.1%.The detection rate of HLAR was 26.1%.All the Staphylococcus strains were sensitive to vancomycin.The resistance rate to nitrofurantoin and rifampicin were less than 22.4%.The detection rate of MRS was 52.7%.Conclusions The primary pathogenic bacterium in children with urinary tract infection is G-bacteria.The Escherichia coli is the first,the Enterococcus is the second and the klebsiella pneu-moniae is the third.All the pathogenic strains show high drug resistance to antibiotics in common use,therefore,clinicians should attach importance to the results from bacteria culture and susceptibility test,in order to obtian reference for accurate clinical diagnosis and rational use of antibiotics.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features,survival,and the impact of postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy on the ovarian function in patients less than or equal to 35 years of age with stage ⅠB-ⅡA cervical cancer.Methods One hundred and eighty-six patients who were admitted to our hospital from 2000 to 2011 were retrospectively analyzed.An equal number of patients older than 35 years of age with cervical cancer within the same period were used as stage-marched controls.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the survival rates,and the log-rank test was used for pairwise comparison and univariate prognostic analyses.The Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariate prognostic analyses.Results The patients less than or equal to 35 years of age had a significantly higher incidence of non-squamous carcinoma but significantly lower incidence rates of deep stromal invasion and lymph-vascular space invasion (LVSI) compared with the control group (P =0.000;P =0.008;P =0.000).Though young patients had significantly higher 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) rates than the control group (93.7％ vs.84.5％,P=0.005;96.1％ vs.89.5％,P=0.033),age was not an independent prognostic factor (P =0.202;P =0.950).Among patients less than or equal to 35 years of age,lymph node metastasis and LVSI were independent prognostic factors for DFS (P =0.000;P =0.000),while LVSI and initial tumor size were independent prognostic factors for OS (P =0.000;P =0.000).There was no significant difference in the incidence of normal ovarian function between young patients treated with and without adjuvant radiotherapy after ovarian transposition (63％ vs.73％,P =0.422).Conclusions Patients less than or equal to 35 years of age with stage ⅠB-ⅡA cervical cancer have a better prognosis than the control group.However,age is not an independent prognostic factor.Postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy will not impair the function of transposed ovaries.

Objective To analyze of pathogenic bacteria of pulmonary infection in patients with terminal cancer.Methods The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed including the general cultivation of pathogenic bac-teria in sputum and the results of drug sensitivity of hospitalization of patients with lung cancer from July 2013 to May 2014.Results 132 strains of pathogenic bacteria were cultured from120 cases of patients with pulmonary infection, including gram-negative bacilli accounted for the vast majority of 27.3%,accounted for 59.8% of Gram-positive coc-ci,Ranked in the top 5 pathogenic bacteria were Streptococcus pneumoniae,Staphylococcus aureus,Candida albicans, Klebsiella pneumoniae,there arevarying degrees of resistance to commonly used antibiotics in bacteria.Conclusion Selecting and using the antimicrobial agents according to the results of pathogen detection in patients,could improve the effectiveness of antibiotic treatment and reduce bacterial resistance.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and prognostic factors in patients with stage Ⅰ b and Ⅱ a cervical carcinoma by radical radiotherapy.Methods Between January 1999 and January 2012,108 patients with stage Ⅰ b and Ⅱ a cervical carcinoma received radical radiotherapy in Cancer Hospital,Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were included and analyzed retrospectively.Patients of stage Ⅰ b1,Ⅰ b2,Ⅱa1 and Ⅱa2 were 18 (16.7％,18/108),38 (35.2％,38/108),33 (30.6％,33/108) and 19 (17.6％,19/108),respectively.Results The 5-year overall survival rate was 76.2％ and the 5-year disease free survival rate was 75.6％.Totally 25 (23.1％,25/108) patients developed recurrent disease,16 of them (64％,16/25) had local recurrences,6 (24％,6/25) had distant metastases and 3 cases had both local recurrence and distant metastases.Among patients with recurrent disease,23 died and 2 survive with tumor.Totally 24 patients died,23 of them died due to tumor recurrence and the other one died of other reason.The univariate analysis showed that,lymph node metastasis,squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC) levels before treatment,SCC levels after treatment 1 month had relation with overall survival time in patients with stage Ⅰ b and Ⅱ a cervical carcinoma (all P ＜ 0.05).The multivariate analysis showed that,lymph node metastasis and SCC levels after treatment 1 month were the independent prognostic factors for overall survival time for the cervical squamous cell carcinoma (OR =2.5,4.4 ; all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions By means of radical radiotherapy,stage Ⅰ b and Ⅱ a cervical carcinoma patients with lymph node metastasis and SCC levels≥ 1.5 mg/L after treatment one month have poor prognosis.While,stage Ⅰ b and Ⅱ a patients with concurrent chemoradiotherapy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy did not affect the prognosis.The 5-year survival rate with concurrent chemoradiotherapy was higher than that of radiotherapy.

BACKGROUND:The levels of interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) are increased during infectious brain edema, and are positively relevant to the degree of brain damage. However, whether TNF-α can enhance blood brain barrier (BBB) permeability remains unclear, especially in vitro.OBJECTIVE: To understand the changes and possible mechanism of the BBB permeability induced by TNF-α in vitro.DESIGN: Randomized controlled cell model study in vitro.SETTING:Department of Pediatrics, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University; Department of Biochemistry, Xiangya Medical College, Central South University.MATERIALS: Twenty 7-day-old healthy Sprague-Dawley rats, of clean grade and either gender, were provided by the Animal Center, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University. TNF-α was purchased from sigma Company; DMEM fluid medium and fetal bovine serum were purchased from Hyclone Company; Y-27632 was purchased from Alexis Company,and rabbit anti-human factor Ⅷ -related antigen was purchased from Zymed Company; Mouse anti-rat glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) was purchased from Neomarkers. Other biochemical reagents were imported (Sigma Company).METHODS: This experiment was carried out in the Xiangya Hospital, Central South University between March 2004 and April 2005. Brain microvascular endothelial cells and astrocytes were co-cultured 10 days to set up rat models of BBB in vitro. Then, the cells were divided into 4 groups: model group(BBB models were prepared), TNF-α group ( BBB model incubated with 0.01 g/L TNF-α for 5 hours), Y-27632 pretreated group ( BBB model incubated with 30 μmol/L Y-27632 for 1 hour before 0.01g/L TNF-α challenge ) and Y-27632 control group (BBB models only incubated with Y-27632 as those in the Y-27632 pretreated group). The effect of TNF-α on BBB permeability was observed by detecting the 125 I -BSA, which passed through the inserts at each time point (30,60,120 and 240 minutes) using .γradioimmunoassay counter.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The 125 I -BSA, which passed through the inserts in rat models of BBB at different time points after intervention.RESULTS: The 125 I -BSA, which passed through the inserts in rat models of BBB, was all significantly higher in the TNF-α group than in the other groups at 30, 60, 120 and 240 minutes after intervention, respectively (P ＜ 0.01), and reached the peak at 240 minutes; The 125 I -BSA, which passed through the inserts, was lower in the Y-27632 pre-treated group than in the TNF-α group at 30 and 60 minutes after intervention (P＜ 0.01). There was also significant difference in 125 I -BSA permeation between Y-27632 pretreated group and Y-27632 control group after 120 minutes (P ＜ 0.05).CONCLUSION: TNF-α can increase BBB permeability, and Y-27632 pretreatment can early reverse the effect of TNF-α on BBB permeability.

AIMTo investigate the effect of shor tly inhaled isoflurane or isoflurane on c-fos gene expression of limbic system in rat. METHODS18 SD male rats weighing 200～250 g were randomi zed into three groups, control group, isoflurane group, enflurane group.The anim als in enflurane group or isoflurane group breathed 2% enflurane or 2% isofluran e till righing reflex nearly disappear.The animals in control group underwent th e same experimental steps except inhalation of anesthesia.The effect of shortly inhaled isoflurane or enflurane on c-fos gene in limbic system was observed wit h Fos immunohistochemical staining technique. RESULTNumber of FL I positive neurons of the 10 nucleus was increased significantly in limbic syst em by isoflurane, but enflurane only influenced FLI positive neurons expression of 8 out of the 10 nucleus. CONCLUSIONNuclei with significant ch ange of c-fos expression might be related to isoflurane or enflurane anesthes ia induction.
