Objective To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of major pathogens for urinary tract infections in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University.Methods Strains from midstream urine culture of patients with urinary tract infections were collected during January 1 and December 31,2011.All strains were identified by API system,and disk diffusion method was used for drug sensitivity test.Results Totally 1129 strains were isolated,in which 667 (59.1％ ) were Gram-negative strains,266 (23.5％) were Gram-positive strains,and 196 (17.4) were Candida.Among Gram-negative strains,Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis were highly sensitive to carbapenem antibiotics; while Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were highly resistant to most antibiotics including cephalosporins and penicillinase inhibitor,and the resistance rates were over 50％.Among Gram-positive strains,the major strains Enterococcus avium and Enterococcusfaecalis were completely sensitive to vancomycin and teicoplanin,and highly sensitive to linezolid (resistance rate below 10％ ).Candida albicans and Candida glabrata were highly resistant to voriconazole and fluconazole (with the resistance rates of 47.2％ - 60.0％ ), but were completely sensitive to amphotericin and nystatin.Conclusion Gram-negative strains account for most urinary tract infections in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University with high drug resistance rates.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the changes of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) protein and CTGF mRNA in kidney tissue of rats with adriamycin (ADR)-induced nephropathy and to study the effects of compound Biejia Ruangan tablet (CBJRGT), a traditional Chinese herbal medicine for treatment of liver fibrosis. METHODS: A rat model of ADR-induced nephropathy after one-sided nephrectomy was established. Forty-five Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: normal control group, sham-operated group, untreated group, lotensin-treated group and CBJRGT-treated group. Pathological changes of the kidney tissue were observed by microscopy after 10-week drug administration. The expressions of CTGF protein and CTGF mRNA in the kidney tissue were measured by the methods of immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. RESULTS: The expressions of CTGF protein and CTGF mRNA in the normal and sham-operated groups were decreased in the intracytoplasm of glomerular mesangial cells, renal tubular epithelial cells and interstitial cells. Compared with the sham-operated group, the expressions of CTGF protein and CTGF mRNA in the untreated group were markedly increased and the development of renal fibrosis in the untreated group could be observed. CBJRGT could significantly decrease the expressions of CTGF protein and CTGF mRNA, and there was no significant difference between CBJRGT-treated group and lotensin-treated group. CONCLUSION: CBJRGT may suppress the development of fibrosis through down-regulating the expressions of CTGF protein and CTGF mRNA.

Objective To explore the impact of berberine on serum levels of insulin resistance and cytokines in schizophrenia patients treated with risperidone. Methods Sixty-four schizophrenia patients treated with risperidone were randomized to berberine group (n=31) and control group (n=33). The fasting plasma blood glucose (FBG) and fasting insulin (Fins) were detected before and after treatment in two groups. The homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated. The serum levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) were evaluated by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay before and after the treatment. Results Compared with control group and pre-treatment group, the levels of FBG, Fins, HOMA-IR, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly decreased after treatment in berberine group (P<0.05). The FBG level was significantly higher, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-αwere significantly lower, after treatment in control group (P < 0.01). There were no significant changes in Fins and HOMA-IR after treatment (P > 0.05). There was positive correlation between HOMA-IR and IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in berberine group (r=0.316, 0.351 and 0.401, P<0.01). Conclusion Berberine can significantly decrease FBG, Fins, HOMA-IR, IL-
1β, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in schizophrenia patients treated with risperidone. The HOMA-IR level is closely correlated with IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-αlevels.

Objective:To report 2 young infants of sodium channel related epilepsy with SCN2A gene mutation, and to discuss the clinical characteristics of the disease and the efficacy and safety of lacosamide combined with the literature.Methods:Corresponding information of 2 children hospitalized in the Department of Neurology of Hunan Children′s Hospital in July 2021 and October 2021 was collected, including the symptoms, comprehensive physical examination, blood, cerebrospinal fluid, imaging, electrophysiological examination, diagnosis and treatment process, response to treatment and other clinical data, as well as the sequencing results of the whole exome of the children. The efficacy and safety of lacosamide were analyzed, and the related literatures of the Biomedical Literature Database, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform and Chinese Knowledge Infrastructure Database were searched and reviewed.Results:Both of the 2 cases were girl. Their onset age was within 3 months. The initial symptoms were frequent convulsions and backward development. There was no structural abnormality in the head image. The convulsions could not be controlled according to conventional multidrug treatment. The seizures were quickly controlled with lacosamide. Now they have been followed up for 6 months. No obvious adverse reactions were found. Case 1 gene test results showed the SCN2A gene (chr2:166152333-166246334) heterozygous deletion, SCN1A gene (chr2:166847754-16693013) heterozygous deletion, the deletion size being about 5.72 Mb. Case 2 gene test results showed new missense mutation of SCN2A (c.1285G>A, p.Glu429Lys). There were dozens of seizures every day. They were treated with valproic acid, oxcarbazepine and levetiracetam successively. The seizures could not be controlled. Three focal seizures originated in the left temporal region were detected by electroencephalogram. There was no recurrence on the third day after adding lacosamide, and there was no attack after 5 months of follow-up. No obvious adverse reactions were found during follow-up.Conclusions:Sodium channel related epileptic encephalopathy often starts early, has frequent seizures, and can be accompanied by backward psychomotor development at the same time. The slow sodium channel blocker lacosamide has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of sodium channel-related epilepsy with SCN2A gene mutation or combined SCN1A gene mutation.

Objective: Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe psychiatric disorder with unknown etiology and lacking specific biomarkers. Herein, we aimed to explore plasma biomarkers relevant to SCZ using targeted metabolomics. Methods: Sixty drug-naïve SCZ patients and 36 healthy controls were recruited. Psychotic symptoms were assessed using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale. We analyzed the levels of 271 metabolites in plasma samples from all subjects using targeted metabolomics, and identified metabolites that differed significantly between the two groups. Then we evaluated the diagnostic power of the metabolites based on receiver operating characteristic curves, and explored metabolites associated with the psychotic symptoms in SCZ patients. Results: Twenty-six metabolites showed significant differences between SCZ patients and healthy controls. Among them, 12 metabolites were phosphatidylcholines and cortisol, ceramide (d18:1/22:0), acetylcarnitine, and γ-aminobutyric acid, which could significantly distinguish SCZ from healthy controls with the area under the curve (AUC) above 0.7. Further, a panel consisting of the above 4 metabolites had an excellent performance with an AUC of 0.867. In SCZ patients, phosphatidylcholines were positively related with positive symptoms, and cholic acid was positively associated with negative symptoms. Conclusion Our study provides insights into the metabolite alterations associated with SCZ and potential biomarkers for its diagnosis and symptom severity assessment.
