Objective To determine the susceptibility of Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu) to 7 kinds of antimicrobial agents, to compare the result with tetracycline resistant determinant(tetM) detected by PCR technique.Methods Forty two Uu isolates were subcultured for 3 generations and then cultured with drugs with a series of concentrations from 64?g/ml ～ 0 06?g/ml. MIC was determined when the color of culture medium did not change from yellow to red in 72h culture. The tetM determinant in the isolates was detected by PCR with specific primers, and PCR products were digested by Taq 1 restrictive endonuclease. Results The antimicrobial activity of tetracyclines to Uu was low. No Uu strains resistant simultaneously to 3 groups of antibiotics were found in the study. Detection rate of tetM was 71 4% with correspondent digested fragments. Conclusion The susceptibility of Uu isolates to tetracycline group was low, but higher to macrolides and fluoroquinolones. Uu strains carrying tetM determinant might become drug resistant ones which should be monitored and followed up with MIC determination.

0 05), respectively. Conclusion It is suggested that urine sediments can not be used as the specimens for the detection of Ct by Wellcozyme chlamydia, and urine sediments can be used if Ct is detected by PCR.

Objective: To probe into the correlation between chronic liver disease and intestinal barrier function. Methods: 1 491 cases of hospitalized patients were enrolled, of which 741 cases were of chronic liver diseases, including 397 cases of fatty liver diseases, 230 cases of chronic hepatitis, 114 cases of liver cirrhosis, and 750 cases of non-hepatic diseases. All admitted patients’ intestinal barrier function like diamine oxidase (DAO), D-lactate, lipopolysaccharide, and biochemical indicators of liver functions were tested. According to different data, statistical analysis was done using t-test, ANOVA, Dunnett’s test, χ ² test of fourfold table, Pearson’s correlation, and binary logistic regression. Results: The intestinal barrier dysfunction was more likely to occur in the chronic liver disease group than that of non-hepatic disease group [54.15% (379/741) vs. 18.53% (139/750), χ ² = 193.58, P < 0.001]. The correlation analysis between biochemical indicators of liver function and intestinal barrier function in chronic liver disease group showed that alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT), and total bilirubin levels were more susceptible to intestinal barrier dysfunction than those with normal indexes (P < 0.05 ). GGT had stimulated DAO (P < 0.05, OR > 1), D-lactate (P < 0.05, OR > 1), lipopolysaccharide (P < 0.05, OR > 1), ALT and AST. Conclusion Chronic liver disease increases with damage to intestinal barrier function.

Objective:To assess the application value of China consensus on the protocol of early gastric cancer screening in Guangdong province.Methods:A new quantitative scoring system was used in Cantonese residents who underwent early gastric cancer screening from March 2018 to March 2019. According to the scores of initial screening, patients were divided into high-risk, medium-risk and low-risk groups. The detection rates of early gastric cancer, precancerous diseases and precancerous lesions under gastroscopy in each group were compared. Chi-square test was performed for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 545 individuals were selected for gastroscopy, in which 32 cases were classified into high-risk group, 184 into medium-risk group and 329 into low-risk group. The results of gastroscopy examination showed that high-risk group had the highest detection rate of early gastric cancer (12.5%), followed by medium-risk group (1.1%) and low-risk group (0) ( χ2=41.85, P<0.01); the detection rates of precancerous diseases exhibited a similar pattern: high-risk group (60.9%) > medium-risk group (52.4%) > low-risk group (34.3%) ( χ2=18.00, P<0.01). The detection rates of precancerous lesions were 17.9%, 8.8% and 8.8%, respectively, with no significant difference ( χ2=2.58, P=0.28). In terms of the positive rate of endoscopy, high-risk group (71.9%) showed the highest positive rate, followed by medium-risk group (57.1%) and low-risk group (40.1%) ( χ2=21.54, P<0.01). Conclusion:China consensus on the protocol of early gastric cancer screeing is of application value for the screening of early gastric cancer and precancerous lesions in the populations at risk of gastric cancer in Guangdong province.
