Objective To explore the correlation of the apoptosis of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) with plasma 8-iso-prostaglandin F2? (8-iso-PGF2?) level in order to confirm the peroxidation damage of hyperbilirubinemia in neonates with jaundice.Me-thods One hundred and twenty-nine neonates who were 2 to 7 days old were divided into 4 groups:slight jaundice (43 cases),moderate jaundice (38 cases),serious jaundice (18 cases),and healthy control(30 cases)groups.Plasma 8-iso-PGF2? levels were assayed by enzyme immunoassay(EIA),and the apoptosis rates of PBMC were determined by flow cytometry.Results 1.There was no significant difference in the apoptosis rate of PBMC between normal and slight jaundice neonates (P=0.108);apoptosis rate of PBMC was increasing with the aggravation of jaundice.2.Plasma 8-iso-PGF2? level in normal neonates was 14.74?6.71 ng/L,there was no difference between normal neonates and neonates with slight jaundice(P=0.502).Plasma 8-iso-PGF2? levels in neonates with moderate and serious jaundice were much higher(Pa=0).3.Positive correlation existed between plasma 8-iso-PGF2? level and PBMC apoptosis rate (r=0.602 P=0).Conclusions Hyperbilirubinemia can induce peroxidation damage,resulting in increase of PBMC apoptosis.Plasma 8-iso-PGF2? level can accurately eva-luate the peroxidation damage in neonates with jaundice.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the isolation and antimicrobial resistance of nonfermentative Gram-negative bacilli(NFGNB) in order to provide laboratory evidence for clinically selecting antibiotics.METHODS All isolates were identified by routine procedure and DADE BEHRING MicroScan auto-system,and K-B paper disk diffusion in accordance with NCCLS standards was employed for drug sensitivity tests.RESULTS There were 273 strains of NFGNB isolated from Feb 2005 to Aug 2006,mainly from sputum,middle urine and secretion. The main NFGNB were Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Acinetobacter baumannii and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia.The resistance rates of P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii to imipenem/cilastatin,cefoperazone/sulbactam and cefepime were less than 13.6%,11.9% and 25.4%;to amikacin and piperacillin/tazobactam were 31.1% to 37.8%.The resistance rate of S.maltophilia was the highest among the NFGNB.Its resistance rates to imipenem/cilastatin showed 100%,to cefoperazone/sulbactam,levofloxacin and compound sulfamethoxazole were less than 14.3%.CONCLUSIONS The NFGNB are the important pathogens causing clinical infection,especially P.aeruginosa,A.baumannii and S.maltophilia.There are significant differences in antimicrobial resistance among different NFGNB.

Objective To explore the possible mechanism for KiSSI gene in control gonadotropin - releasing hormone(GnRH)secretion participating in sexual development onset and normal reproduction regulation by investigating the changes in expression of KiSS1,GnRH in hypothalamus and luteinizing hormone(LH),follicle stimulating hormone (FSH),and estradiol(E2 )in serum by using RNA interference mediated by lentivirus - based vectors,after interfering expression of KiSSI. Methods Ninety female Sprague - Dawley rats of 21 days were randomly divided into 3 groups:interference virus group receiving intracerebroventricular injection of KiSSI - microRNA interference lentivirus;lentivi-rus - control group given intracerebroventricular injection of lentivirus without interference effect;9 g/ L saline control group given intracerebroventricular injection of 9 g/ L saline. Ten rats in each group and the animals were sacrificed at 30 - day - old,35 - day - old,45 - day - old,respectively. Then the expressions of KiSSI and GnRH mRNA were detec-ted in the rat hypothalamus with real - time PCR,the LH,FSH,and E2 in serum was examined with chemiluminescence method. Results The levels of KiSSI mRNA in interference virus group were significantly reduced after being infected with recombinant lentivirus compared with those of 9 g/ L saline control group( at 30 d:0. 106 ± 0. 018;at 35 d:0. 218 ± 0. 025;at 45 d:0. 215 ± 0. 033,all P = 0. 000). The level of GnRH mRNA in interference virus group was sig-nificantly reduced after being infected with recombinant lentivirus compared with that of 9 g/ L saline control group(at 30 d:0. 230 ± 0. 040;at 35 d:0. 407 ± 0. 030,all P = 0. 000). The level of LH in interference virus group was lower than the other 2 groups at 35 d[(0. 101 ± 0. 004)IU/ L,P = 0. 467]. The level of FSH in the interference virus group was lower than that of the other 2 groups at 35 d[(0. 235 ± 0. 014)IU/ L,P = 0. 015]. The level of E2 in the interfe-rence virus group was lower than that of the other 2 groups at 35 d and 45 d[at 35 d:(171. 750 ± 11. 050)nmol/ L, P = 0. 000;at 45 d:(192. 310 ± 13. 100)nmol/ L,P = 0. 010]. Conclusions Lentivirus with KiSSI - microRNA can affect the expression of GnRH mRNA and the levels of sex hormone. Lateral cerebral ventricle microinjection of KiSSI -microRNA lentivirus can delay sexual development of Sprague - Dawley female rats.

Objective To report 44 cases of meta-superior position anorectal malformation in different age therapied by posterior sagittal anorectoplasty(PSARP) operation, and to discuss possibility of one-stage anorectoplasty via posterior sagittal approach in neonate. Methods The clinical data of 44 cases meta-superior position anorectal malformation,which were treated by PSARP,were studied retrospectively. Results Of 44 cases, 15 were treated by colon stoma in neonate, then PSARP was executed after 3~7 months. And the rest 29 cases (9 in neonate and 20 in 2 months~9 years) were operated with one-stage anorectoplasty via posterior sagittal approach. Among 21 children followed from post-operration 6 months to 5 years, 18 cases of defecation clinical score were fineness. Conclusion The curative effects of PSARP in neonate to meta-superior position anorectal malformation is satisfactory. If the neonate is in good condition, one-stage anorectoplasty via posterior sagittal approach could be executed in infant, and favourable defecate function could be remain.
