OBJECTIVE To compare the bacterial resistance of wounds and clinical features in burned patients in intensive care unit (ICU) with those in general wards (GW) in the same period so as to provide basis for clinical prevention and treatment. METHODS Nineteen cases with wound infection admitted to the burn unit during June and July in 2005 were included in the retrospective study, 4 cases with 114 bacterial strains were from ICU and 15 cases with 47 bacterial strains were from GW respectively. The clinical features, bacterial culture and sensitivity test to antibiotics were analyzed. RESULTS Susceptibility to bacterial infection in ICU patients was significant than those in GW. The prevalent bacterial strains in ICU were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAE), Staphylococcus aureus (SAU) and Acinetobacter baumannii (ABA). In contrast, SAU, ABA, Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPN) and PAE prevailed in GW. Drug resistance of PAE, ABA and KPN to some kinds of antibiotics in ICU was severer than those in GW. CONCLUSIONS There is relatively great difference in bacterial constitution and drug resistance ratio between ICU and GW. To take certain disinfection and isolation measures could effectively prevent bacterial strains from transmitting among the wards.

Objective To investigate the dysregulation of HER-2 protein and gene in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to identify the association between clinicopathological features,prognosis and HER-2 aberrations amongst protein and gene. Methods 140 NSCLC tissues (89 squamous cell carcinoma, 51 adenocarcinoma) with operative section and detailed case were taken from pathology department of Shanxi Cancer Hospital from Jan 2006 to Feb 2007, while 70 normal tissues were set as control group. Immunohistochemistry was applied to detect the state of HER-2 protein expression,and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was applied to test the status of gene amplification. Results In normal and NSCLC tissues, over-expression of HER-2 was detected in 0 case and 17 (12.14 %) cases (P < 0.05), respectively. The over-expression of HER-2 was associated with the pathological type of NSCLC, which was detected more frequently in adenocarcinoma (χ2 = 4.19, P = 0.04), rather than the gender, age, smoke history, clinical stages, and lymphatic metastasis of patients. 40 (28.57 %) cases presented HER-2 gene copy number ≥3, including 6 (4.29 %) patients with HER-2 gene amplification, 34 (24.29 %) patients with HER-2 gene multicopy. HER-2 gene amplification was associated with the pathological type (P = 0.024), smoke history (P = 0.048) and age (P = 0.015), rather than lymphatic, gender, clinical stages. None clinicopathological features were presented correlation with HER-2 gene multicopy (P > 0.05). There was no significantly difference in survival between patients with and without HER-2 protein over-expression and HER-2 gene dysregulation (P > 0.05). HER-2 protein over-expression was associated with HER-2 gene amplification (P > 0.05), while no relationship between HER-2 protein overexpression and HER-2 gene multicopy (P < 0.01). Conclusions The over-expression of HER-2 is related to pathological type of NSCLC with more frequent expression in adenocarcinoma. The incidence rate of HER-2 gene amplification in patients with adenocarcinoma histology, never-smokers, and young age is high. The HER-2 protein over-expression and gene dysregulation show no relation with the prognosis of NSCLC.

Objective To explore whether emotion regulation mediates the relationship between occupational stress and job burnout in a large sample of nurses, in order to provide a targeted intervention. Methods Chinese Nurses Stressor Scale, Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey, Emotion Regulation Questionnaire and Ruminative Responses Scale were used to investigate 602 nurses working in three tertiary hospitals in Jinan. SPSS 16.0 and AMOS 17.0 software were used to analyze the data. Results Job burnout were positively correlated with stressors, expression suppression and rumination (r=0.112–0.576, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with cognitive reappraisal (r=-0.277, P<0.01). Stressors were positively correlated with expression suppression and rumination (r = 0.140–0.403, P <0.01), and negatively correlated with cognitive reappraisal (r =-0.110, P < 0.01). Occupational stress could make a positive role on job burnout directly. Moreover, in the indirect approach, occupational stress could make a positive role on job burnout through the mediating role of cognitive reappraisal and ruminative, but not expression suppression. Conclusions Cognitive reappraisal and ruminative partially mediated the relationship between occupational stress and job burnout.

In order to study the regularity of shedding virus from infected SPF chickens and the formation of aerosol of H9N2 subtype AIV, SPF chickens were bred in a positive and negative pressure isolator. Aerosol samples were collected by AGI-30 (All Glass Impinger-30) extractor, and simultaneously trachea and cloaca samples were collected by tracheal swabs and cloacal swabs in different periods after challenged with vi- ruses. The above-mentioned samples were detected by HI, Dot-ELISA and RT-PCR methods. The results in- dicated that aerosols were isolated from the 4 days to the 43 days after inoculation. It was proved that H9N2 subtype AIV could copy themselves in respiratory passage and cloaca, and then could formation of aerosols. AIV H9N2 subtype could be isolated from cloacal and tracheal swabs 3 days after inoculation and lasted for 45 days, viruses were detected from all infected SPF chickens on 7 days.
