Objective To investigate the distribution and antibiotic resistance of Mycoplasma isolates from male genitourinary tract infection for rational use of antibiotics to treat Mycoplasma infections.Methods Isolates were detected using Mycoplasma IES Test Kit supplied by Yeoman Biotech (Zhuhai) Co.Ltd.Results A total of 698 strains (30.5%) of Mycoplasma was de- tected from 2 287 samples, 563 (80.7%) of which were Ureaplasma urealyticum, 26(3.7%)were Mycoplasma hominis. Both U.urea lyticum and M.hominis were identified in 109 (15.6%) specimens.U.urealyticum isolates were most suscepti- ble to josamycin, while all M.hominis isolates were susceptible to doxycyeline and minocycline, but resistant to erythromycin, roxithromycin and clarithromycin.Conclusions The best choice to treat Mycoplasma infections is josamycin, doxycycline and minocycline.The different strains of mycoplasrna may have variable susceptibility to the same kind of antibiotic.Active cul- ture, identification, and susceptibility testing of mycoplasma can provide useful data for rational use of antibiotics.

Objective:To investigate the the retention force changes of 2 kinds of T bar clasps on Cr-Co crowns and the surface ab-rasion of the crowns.Methods:Standard Cr-Co crowns were made,and standard T bar clasps were made of Cr-Co alloy and Vitalli-um2000 with 0.25 mm and 0.5 mm undercut depth respectively.1 800 times repeated placement and removal(fatigue test)were car-ried out on instron testing machine in or without saliva soak condition.The attenuation curves of the maximum retention force was an-alysed.The surface abrasion of the crowns was observed before and after the fatigue test by SEM.Results:The retention force attenu-ation of the clasps in every group was accord with the logarithm attenuation law.SEMexamination showed that in the same condition, there was less surface abrasion in Vitallium2000 group than that in Cr-Co group.Vitallium2000 clasp was superior to Cr-Co clasp in maintaining the retention force.Conclusion:Vitallium2000 T bar clasp may provide better retention force with less furface abrasion on Cr-Co crown than Cr-Co clasp.

Objective To explore the efficacy of long- and short-acting triptorelin on pituitary down-regulation in long protocol and the pregnancy outcome in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) . Methods Three hundred and seventeen patients for IVF-ET were enrolled as study and randomized them into two groups. In group A (n=145), patients received single dose subcutaneous injection of 1.25 mg long-acting diphereline in mid-luteal phase. In group B (n=172), patients received 0.1 mg/d subcutaneous injection of short-acting diphereline in mid-luteal phase for 14-18 days until pituitary suppression were got,and then reduced to 0.05 mg/d until the injection of HCG. Results The dose and the days of gonadotropin administration in group A were bigger and longer than those in group B ( <0.05) . There were no significant differences in the number of retrieved oocytes, fertilization rate,high quality embryos,implantation rate and clinical pregnancy rate between the two groups (all > 0.05) . But clinical pregnancy rate of group B had increasing trend. Conclusion Administration of short-acting diphereline has the similar effect with that of long-acting diphereline on pituitary down-regulation in long protocol. Short-acting diphereline requires lower amount of gonadotropin and is more flexible,so it should be recommended.
