Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of itraconazole oral solutions on pulmonary candidiasis albicans in ICU patients.Methods A total of 71 patients with candida ablicans in their sputum clutures were randomized into two groups.The itraconazole group(n= 36)received itraconazole 200 mg,p.o.(including nasal feeding),q12h for 14 days.The fluconazole group(n=35)received fluconazole 400 mg for the first dose,then 200 mg,i.v.drip,qd for 14 days.Results There were 31 patients in the itraconazole group and 29 paitents in the fluconazole group who completed their treatment.In the itraconazole and fluconazole group,the clearance of candida ablicans was 64.52%(20/31)vs.65.55%(19/29),cleaning time(10.12?2.57)vs(8.87?1.95)days,effective rate 58.06%(18/31)vs 62.07%(18/29),recovery rate is 19.35%(6/31)vs 17.24%(5/29),occurrence of hepatic dysfunction is 25.81%(8/31)vs 24.14%(7/29),and withdrawal for inefficacy was 3.23%(1/31)vs 6.90%(2/29),respectively.These parameters did not have statistical significance.Conclusion Itraconazole oral solutions can be used effectively and safely in the treatment of pulmonary candidiasis albicans in ICU.Patients with renal dysfunction do not need to adjust the dosage.

Objective To investigate the relationship of icaA,aap ,atlE,sarA gene with biofilm phenotype in Staphyloccus epi-dermidis .Methods Tissue culture plates assays were used to assess biofilm-forming ability of 78 Staphyloccus epidermidis strains.The presence of icaA,atlE,aap ,sarA gene was amplified with PCR method,the relationship between these genes and bio-film phenotype was evaluated by χ2 test and the difference of the biofilm OD′s value in TSB and TSB+3% NaCl by icaA + strains and icaA - strains was evaluated by Wilcoxon sign test,respectively.Results The positive rates of icaA,atlE,aap ,sarA gene were 24.4%(19/78),79.5%(62/78),73.8%(57/78),82.1%(64/78),respectively.40 biofilm-positive strains were detected(51.3%), among which 16 strains carried icaA gene,24 strains showed weak biofilm-forming ability.Those genes above with biofilm forma-tion were statistically correlated.Moreover,there was a relation between the icaA gene and the high biofilm-producing phenotype. There was a significant difference between the biofilm OD values in TSB and TSB+3% NaCl by icaA + strains and icaA - strains, respectively.Conclusion Multiple genes are involved in Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm-positive phenotype,but the icaA gene contributes to the high biofilm-forming phenotype.Biofilm phenotype is also influenced by environmental factors.

Objective To evaluate the effect of surgical trauma on the cognitive function and expression of hepcidin and ferroportin 1 (FP1) in hippocampus in aged rats.Methods One hundred male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 18 months,weighing 400-500 g,were randomly divided into 2 groups with 50 rats in each group:control group (group C) and surgical trauma group (group ST).The rats were anesthetized with chloral hydrate,but underwent no operation in group C.The rats Were anesthetized with chloral hydrate and underwent 30 min of modified exploratory laparotomy in group ST.Ten rats were chosen from each group at 24 h after operation and the cognitive function was assessed using Morris water-maze test for 6 consecutive days.Ten rats were sacrificed on 1st,3rd,5th and 7th days after beginning of Morris water-maze test and brains were removed for determination of hepcidin and FP1 expression in hippocampus by PCR and Western blot.Results Compared with group C,the escape latency was significantly prolonged,the time of staying at the original platform quadrant and frequency of crossing the original platform were decreased on 3rd,4th and 5th days after beginning of Morris water-maze test,and the expression of hepcidin was up-regulated and the expression of FP1 was down-regulated at each time point in group ST (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Surgical trauma can decrease the cognitive function in aged rats and the mechanism may be related to up-regulation of hepcidin expression and down-regulation of FP1 expression in hippocampus.

Objective To explore the differential diagnostic significance of clone analysis for multicentric occurrence (MO) and intrahepatic metastasis (IM) in hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs).Methods Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and microsatellite instability (MSI) were analyzed by microsatellite polymorphism test and the integration sites of HBV were assessed by Southern blot in each nodule of the HCCs. The clonalities were then compared between each nodule of the same patient and the diagnosis of MO or IM was concluded. Finally, the results based on clonality analysis were compared with those according to clinicopathological and imaging data. Results According to the results of LOH and MSI in 79 nodules and nontumorous tissue from 35 cases of mutiple HCCs, 5 (14.3%)and 29 cases (82.9 %) were divided into MO and IM, respectively. Both MO and IM presented simultaneously in 1 patient (2.9%). The integration sites of HBV could be analyzed in 77 nodules from 34 multiple HCCs. Among them, 6 (17. 6%) and 27 cases (79.4%) were divided into MO and IM, respectively. Both MO and IM presented simultaneously in 1 patient (2.9%). The classification results of microsatellite polymorphism test and HBV integration sites analysis demonstrated a significant positive correlation (rs = 0.909, P＜0.001). Nevertheless, neither the classification of microsatellite polymorphism test nor that of HBV integrate sites analysis was correlated with the discrimination according to clinicopathologic and imaging data (rs=0. 133, P=0. 468, rs =0. 262, P=0. 155, respectively). Recurrence in patients in the MO group occurred significantly later than that in IM cases who were diagnosed by clonality analyses (P=0. 001). Conclusion The clonality analysis based on the results of LOH and MSI or assessments of HBV integrate sites is useful for the differential diagnosis of MO and IM and their treatment and prognosis.

Results After transferring human sodium/iodide symporter (hNIS) gene, the xenografted ovarian cancer in nude mice was imaged by isotope 99m TcO-4 Moreover,131Ⅰ exerted inhibitory effect on the proliferative activity. Conclusion After the transfection of hNIS gene, 131Ⅰ has inhibitory effect on proliferative activity of xenografted ovarian cancer.

Objective:To investigate the curative efficacy of combined use of dexamethasone palmitate,vitamin B12 and lidocaine in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis and its effects on the seum levels of interleukin-1 (IL-1),matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) and matrix metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1).Methods:84 patients with osteoarthritis of knee were selected from August 2014 to July 2015 in Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University and divided into the observation group and the control group according to the order of admission,42 cases in each group.The observation group was given intra-articular injection of dexamethasone palmitate,vitamin B12 and lidocaine,and the control group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine.The clinical efficacy was evaluated after treatment.The changes of serum IL-1,MMP-3,TIMP-1 levels and visual analogue (VAS) score were compared before and at 1 months after treatment.Results:After treatment,the total effective rate of observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P＜0.05),the serum levels ofIL-1,MMP-3 levels and VAS score were significantly lower than those before treatment,serum TIMP-1 level was obviously higher than that before treatment(P ＜0.05),the serum levels of IL-1,MMP-3 levels were significantly lower in the observation group than those of the control group,while the serum TIMP-1 level was obviously higher than(P＜0.05) Conclusion:Intra-articular injection with dexamethasone palmitate,vitamin B12 and lidocaine could effectively decrease the levels of serum IL-1 and MMP-3,increase the level ofTIMP-1,and relieve the pain in the patients with knee osteoarthritis.
