To understand the situation of drug-resistant of China based on the bacterial resistance monitoring data in 2010.Using the international guidelines for reference to propose the prevention and infection control strategy.The monitoring data shows that bacterial resistance is still growing in China which brings enormous difficulties on clinical treatment and poses a serious threat to the safety of patients.By strengthening the surveillance of bacterial resistance,reducing the use of antibiotics,strengthening the etiological examination,improving the use of antibiotics,strictly carrying out hand hygiene,disinfection and isolation system will be the key points of the prevention and infection control for drug-resistant bacteria.

Background N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU)-induced mouse mutagenesis is a powerful approach for the study of gene function and the generation of human disease models.Objective This study was to create the corneal morphologic change and map the mutant gene of a kind of corneal opacity in ENU mutagenesis in mouse.Methods ENU was intraperitoneally injected in forty C57BL/ 6J (B6) male mice aged 8-10 weeks old.The male mice were mated with the same strain female mice.Their progenies were screened for visible eye mutation,and the mutant mice were mated with the same strain mice to confirm the heredity of mutation phenotypes.Hematoxylin & eosin staining was used to examine the histopathological change of cornea in one mouse with ENU-induced corneal opacity.To map the mutant gene,[(B6×D2)F1 ×B6] N2 mutant mice were bred,and the genome of the N2 mice was scanned by microsatellite markers distributed equally on the mouse chromosome.The microsatellite linked to the mutant gene was determined by the log odds score.This experimental procedure was approved by Ethic Committee about Experimental Animal Care and Use of Yangzhou University.Results The founder mouse,which was the progeny of an ENU-treated B6 male mouse and an untreated B6 female mouse,had a corneal opacity phenotype.After mating the mutant with B6 mice,19 of 59 descendants appeared corneal opacity phenotype.Thickening of corneal stroma,neoangiogenesis,infiltration of inflammatory cells and proliferation of fibroblasts were exhibited in cloudy cornea in ENU-induced mutated mice under the optical microscope.After linkage analysis between microsatellite markers and the mutant gene,the mutant gene was linked to D2Mi307,which was located at 63.42 cM.Three cases of 26 N2 mice underwent recombination with the LOD 3.79.The mutant gene associated with the cornea phenotype was located on chromosome 2.Conclusions This study map the mutant gene associated with the cornea phenotype on chromosome 2.The strain might be used as a mouse model for heritable human corneal opacity.

Objective To compare treatment and efficacy of thoracolumbar fractures by using three different screw fixations:traditional approach,the vertebral side clearance into the road and percutaneous pedicle. Methods A total of 82 single segmental thoracic lumbar fractures cases hospitalized from March 2011 to March 2014 ,with male 67 cases ,female 15 cases ,and average age(33.7+/-12.5)years old. Patients were randomly divided into three groups:traditional approach group (n = 23),operation through paraspinal muscle gap group (n = 30),percutaneous group(n = 29). These following indicators will be compared in three groups:duration of operation ,intraoperative blood loss ,intraoperative fluoroscopy time ,postoperative flow ,VAS scores before and after operation and Oswestry disability index , difference of spinal sagittal position Cobb′s Angle. Results Compared with the traditional approach group ,operation through paraspinal muscle gap group and percu-taneous group have obvious advantages in duration of operation,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative flow,VAS scores before and after operation ,the Oswestry disability index. Additionally ,above mentioned three surgical methods could recover kyphosis deformity ,and there was no statistically significant difference among three groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion In the treatment of monosegmental thoracolumbar fractures ,compared with traditional approach ,operation through paraspinal muscle gap and percutaneous pedicle screw internal fixation have more advantages which includes fewer trauma,less bleeding,faster recovery and lower incidence of postoperative low back pain.

Objective To observe the morphology and ultrastructure of Blastocystis hominis. Methods Morphological observation was made with 4-5 days cultured B.hominis by light microscopy, and similar material fixed with 4% glutaraldehyde was used for transmission electron microscopy. Results Several forms of B.hominis were observed including vacuolar, \{granular\}, amebic, multifission and cystic forms. The multiplication patterns of B.hominis included both binary fission and sporogony. Under transmission electron microscope, the nuclei, mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticula and lysomes were observed in addition to lipid droplets in its cytoplasm, and glycogen in the central vacuole. Conclusion The central vacuole of vacuolar form may be related to the storage of the excreta. The amebic form of B.hominis might be pathogenic.

Objective To investigate the level of plasma GDF-15 in patients with COPD and its clinical value in the diagnosis of COPD in the stable stage and in acute exacerbation stage. Methods From 2015 to 2016, 58 cases of patients with COPD were enrolled ,including COPD patients in the stable stage and in acute exacerba-tion stage. 29 cases of COPD patients diagnosed in our hospital were enrolled in the experimental group ,and 29 cases of age-,gender and body mass index-matched healthy people were enrolled in the control group. Compared and analyzed the blood cell count ,determination of plasma GDF-15 and C-reactive protein were performed and ana-lyzed. Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to compare levels of GDF-15 and C-reactive protein between pa-tients with the stable stage of COPD and those with acute exacerbation stage of COPD. The diagnostic efficacy was compared between GDF-15 and C-reactive protein in differentiatingthe COPD in acute exacerbation period and in the stable period. Results Level of GDF-15 in the stable COPD patients was significantly increased compared with that in the control group. The plasma GDF-15 level was significantly increased in acute exacerbation COPD patients compared to patient with the stable COPD(P<0.001). For the stable COPD patients,GDF-15 level and C-reactive protein level was positively correlated(r = 0.776,P < 0.001). In acute exacerbation COPD patients, GDF-15 level and C-reactive protein level was positively correlated (r = 0.877,P < 0.001). The ROC curves showed that the GDF-15 level on the diagnosis of acute exacerbation COPD patients with an AUC was 0.783(95%CI,0.666~0.900,P<0.001)and with the diagnostic accuracy was 69%. C-reactive protein in the acute exacer-bation of AUC diagnosis of COPD was 0.686(95%CI:0.549~0.823,P<0.01)and the diagnostic accuracy rate was 59%. Conclusion The plasma level of GDF-15 was significantly increased in COPD patients compared with people in the healthy control group. Plasma GDF-15 and C- reactive protein were highly correlated in the stable stage of COPD patients and in acute exacerbation stage of COPD patients. The diagnostic accuracy of GDF in patients with the stable stage of COPD and with acute exacerbation stage of COPD was higher than C-reactive pro tein.

The alpine plant Gentiana robusta is an endemic species to the Sino-Himalayan subregion. Also, it is one of the original plants used as traditional Tibetan medicine Jie-Ji. We sequence the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions, matK, rbcL, rpoC1, trnL (UAA), psbA-trnH, atpB-rbcL, trnS( GCU)-trnG(UCC), rpl20-rps12, trnL(UAA)-trnF( GAA) fragments of cp DNA in both G. robusta and such relative species as G. straminea, G. crassicaulis and G. waltonii. With Halenia elliptica as the outgroup, molecular systematic analysis reveals that G. robusta is a natural hybrid. G. straminea is the mother of hybrids, but the father is not very clear. In addition, the molecular markers for distinguishing G. robusta from the parental species or closely related species are identified, respectively. Our studies may provide valuable reference for the species identifications of medicinal plants with complex genetic backgrounds.
