To study the clinical feature of pulmonary tuberculosis with sputum M. tuberculosis negative and L form of M. tuberculosis positive, the sputum of 204 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis with negative smear and culture results was cultured for L form of M. tuberculosis. A comparative study of major clinical manifestations, X ray, and therapeutic effect was carried out in 60 cases of L form positive and 144 cases of L form negative pulmonary tuberculosis. The detection rate of L form positive in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis was 29 4%. The incidence of caseous lesion and cavitation in the L form positive patients was higher than those with L form negative, and the incidence of focal absorption was higher in L form negative patients than those with L form positive. The existence of L form of M. tuberculosis suggested activity of the tuberculous lesion. The treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis must be persisted with a reasonable regimen with whole therapeutic period until L form of M. tuberculosis is eliminated from sputum.

Objective To investigate the changes of inflammatory factors in the blood serum and their relationship with the immune status of patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis(TB).Methods A total of 97 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis were included from Feb 2003 to Oct 2005,57 of active TB,40 in resting period.Another 41 healthy people were used as normal control.ELISA and APAAP method were used to detect the level of TNF-?, IL-1,IL-6 and the changes of CD_(4),CD_(8)and CD_(4)/CD_(8).Results The levels of IL-1,IL-6,TNF-? were(15.3?1.3),(80.5?7.3) and(77.2?9.8) ng/ml in the normal controls,(33.7?3.6),(293.6?30.5) and(190.7?25.2) in the patients of active TB,and(18.2?2.1),(130.7?14.5),(87.5?10.2) ng/ml in the patients at resting period,which were highest in the patients of active TB.The ratio of CD_(4)and CD_(4)/CD_(8) was(32.3?2.9)% and(0.83?0.17) in the patients of active TB,lower than(48.2?4.4)% and(0.83?0.17) of normal controls.Conclusion The increase of inflammatory factors and decrease of immune activity were the clinical characteristic of patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis,which are of inverse relationship.

Objective To evaluate antimicrobial resistance and antimicrobial resistance mechanisms of Enterococcus faecalis (E.faecalis)to linezolid (LNZ),and provide basis for clinical rational drug use.Methods Twelve E.faecalis strains isolated from sputum of patients who received LNZ therapy in a hospital between January 2012 and January 2013 were collected.The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs)of antimicrobial agents were de-termined by agar dilution method,23S rRNA V region gene of E.faecalis was amplified by polymerase chain reac-tion,the amplified products were sequenced.Results Of 1 2 isolates,2 were intermediate strains and 1 0 sensitive strains.The G2576U mutation was detected in 2 intermediate strains,1 of which was also detected G2424U muta-tion;the variations were not detected in 10 sensitive strains.C2424U and G2576U mutation existed in R1 and R4 region respectively.Conclusion 23S rRNA V region gene mutations are found in the intermediate strains of E.faecalis.Change in MIC values of linezolid should be paid close attention in clinical use.

Objective To explore whether remote ischemic preconditioning(RIPC)can prolong the time of ultra-intense exercise(110%VO2max)by increasing the maximum cumulative oxygen deficit(MA-OD),and the specific ways of energy supply of the anaerobic metabolic system.Methods Twenty-four racquet athletes(22.2±2.0 years;174±9 cm;67.1±12.4 kg)completed three supramaximal intensi-ty tests on a treadmill at 110%VO2max intensity to exhaustion separated with Control,Placebo and RIPC interventions.RIPC was induced on the limbs on both sides(5×5 min alternating bilateral occlu-sion 220 and 60 mmHg for Placebo and RIPC interventions,respectively).Moreover,all groups under-went a fourth test with incremental load,and a fifth test with constant load at 40%,50%,60%,70%and 80%VO2max.Results The time to exhaustion and the MAOD of the RIPC group were both greater than those in the Placebo and Control groups(P<0.05).However,no significant differences were found in the average alternative maximal accumulated oxygen deficit(MAODALT),lactic anaerobic metabolism,alactic anaerobic metabolism and parameters of excess post-exercise oxygen consump-tion dynamic curve of the three groups(P>0.05).Meanwhile,in the RIPC group,the average MAOD was significantly higher than MAODALT(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed a significant rela-tionship between the improvement of MAOD and an increase in exhaustion time after RIPC interven-tion.Conclusion RIPC can improve supramaximal exercise performance of racquet athletes by enhanc-ing their MAOD,and the enhancement of glycolysis energy supply and lactic acid elimination is a po-tential intermediary of the improvement of sports performance.

Objective To analyze the causes of delayed hemorrhage after colonoscopic treatment in colorectal diseases and the value of second colonoscopic treatment.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 45 patients with colorectal protrusion lesions (polyps,adenoma,early carcinoma and lipoma) in the Daping hospital of the Third Military medical University from January 2010 to December 2016.The patients suffered from delayed hemorrhage after argon knife coagulation,submucosal resection,submucosal dissection or nylon snares colonoscopic treatment.The mode and clinical outcome of second colonoscopic treatment were summarized by aiming at the reasonsof delayed hemorrhage.Results The predilection sites of delayed hemorrhage were in turn rectum (28.89 ％),sigmoid colon (24.44 ％) and ascending colon (22.22 ％).Adenoma and intraepithelial neoplasia lesions were easier to occurr (88.89 ％).The types of delayed hemorrhage were mainly blood oozing at the lesion resection wound surface as well as blood gushing or ejection.The second colonoscopic treatment modes in these cases were mainly titanium clipping and ring clipping and suturing.Five cases were treated by submucosal injection of adrenaline (1 ∶ 10 000) combined with argon knife coagulation.Thirtyfive cases conducted argon knife coagulationcombined with titanium clipping,3 cases conducted titanium clipping and 2 cases adopted ring clipping hemostasis.Forty-two cases stopped bleeding by once colonoscopic treatment,while 3 cases suffered from re-bleeding,the colonoscopic treatment was performed again,1 case stopped bleeding after using titanium clipping and ring clipping hemostasis again,while other 2 cases were transfered to the surgery department for conducting colectomy.All 43 cases of delayed hemorrhage in this group were cured and discharged after successful hemostasis by colonoscopy.The firm wound treatment after colonoscopic treatment was very important for preventing delayed hemorrhage,and the underlying diseases and postoperative diet management were also the important factors of delayed hemorrhage.Conclusion Timely second colonoscopic examination and treatment can obtain satisfactory clinical effects in the patients sufferring from delayed hemorrhage after colonoscopic treatment.

Objective:To analyze the improvement of patients with basilar invagination and atlantoaxial dislocation that treated by anterior or posterior surgery.Methods:50 patients with basilar invagination and atlantoaxial dislocation that underwent simple anterior or posterior surgery from 2009 to 2021 were included. There were 34 females and 16 males with a mean age of 45.04 years (range, 18-65 years). All patients underwent thin- slice CT scan of the neck. Preoperative and postoperative measurements of atlantoaxial joint distance, atlantoaxial joint angle, atlantoaxial joint displacement, Claus' Height, atlas-dens interval, space available for the cord, cervicomedullary angle, C 0-C 2 angle, and C 2-C 7 angle were measured. Then, the data were analyzed by independent sample t test. Results:25 patients (7 males, 18 females) were included in the anterior surgery group, and 25 patients (9 males, 16 females) were included in the posterior surgery group. The mean age of the two groups was 45.24±9.86 years and 44.72±14.06 years, respectively, showing no statistical difference. The mean last follow-up time of the anterior and posterior surgery group was 6.48±3.14 months and 7.04±2.87 months, respectively. The odontoid distance, atlas-dens interval, space available for the cord and cervicomedullary angle in 2 groups were significantly improved after surgery ( P<0.05), while there were no significant differences in the above parameters between 2 groups ( P>0.05). In the anterior surgery group, the distance and angle of atlantoaxial joint were increased, and the atlantoaxial joint displacement decreased significantly. While in the posterior surgery group, only the atlantoaxial joint space increased ( P<0.05). The C 0-C 2 angle was significantly increased and the C 2-C 7 angle was significantly decreased in the anterior surgery group ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in these parameters in the posterior surgery group ( P>0.05). In addition, there was no significant difference in parameters between the two groups at the last follow-up compared with those immediately after surgery. Conclusion:Both anterior and posterior surgery can improve the compression of the spinal cord in patients with basilar invagination and atlantoaxial dislocation. Anterior surgery may be more adequate for the extension and reduction of the atlantoaxial joint space, however, excessive enlargement of the lordosis angle in upper cervical may lead to the reduction of the lordosis in lower cervical.

Objective To systematically evaluate the risk factors for new-onset atrial fibrillation after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG). Methods PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, SinoMed were searched to collect published literature on risk factors for new-onset atrial fibrillation after OPCABG from inception to September 2022. Two authors independently screened, extracted data and evaluated the quality. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the quality of the included studies, and Stata 12.0 and RevMan 5.4 softwares were used for meta-analysis. Results A total of 18 researches were included, including 6 354 patients of OPCABG. The NOS scores of the included studies were 6-8 points. Meta-analysis showed that age [MD=2.56, 95%CI (1.61, 3.52), P<0.001], hypertension [OR=1.77, 95%CI (1.18, 2.66), P<0.001], EuroSCORE Ⅱ score [MD=0.70, 95%CI (0.34, 1.06), P<0.001], frequent atrial premature beats or atrial tachycardia [OR=3.77, 95%CI (2.13, 6.68), P<0.001], left atrium diameter (LAD) [MD=1.64, 95%CI (0.26, 3.03), P=0.010], left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) [MD=−1.84, 95%CI (−2.85, −0.83), P<0.001], right coronary stenosis [OR=2.49, 95%CI (1.29, 4.81), P=0.006], three-vessel coronary artery lesions [OR=0.73, 95%CI (0.54, 0.97), P=0.030], not using β blockers [OR=0.81, 95%CI (0.69, 0.96), P=0.010], operation time [MD=10.13, 95%CI (8.15, 12.10), P<0.001], duration of mechanical ventilation [OR=2.85, 95%CI (1.79, 3.91), P<0.001] were risk factors for new-onset atrial fibrillation after OPCABG. Conclusion Advanced age, hypertension, high EuroSCOREⅡ score, frequent atrial premature beats or atrial tachycardia, increased LAD, decreased LVEF, right coronary stenosis, three-vessel coronary artery lesions, not using β blockers, prolonged operation time and mechanical ventilation are risk factors for new-onset atrial fibrillation after OPCABG. Due to factors such as the methodology, content and quality of the included literature, the conclusion of this study need to be supported by more high-quality studies.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness， safety， economy， innovation， suitability and accessibility of recombinant Mycobacterium tuberculosis fusion protein （EC）， and to provide evidence for selecting skin detection methods for tuberculosis infection diagnosis and auxiliary diagnosis of tuberculosis. METHODS The effectiveness and safety of EC compared with purified protein derivative of tuberculin （TB-PPD） were analyzed by the method of systematic review. Cost minimization analysis， cost-effectiveness analysis and cost-utility analysis were used to evaluate the short-term economy of EC compared with TB-PPD， and cost-utility analysis was used to evaluate the long-term economy. The evaluation dimensions of innovation， suitability and accessibility were determined by systematic review and improved Delphi expert consultation， and the comprehensive score of EC and TB-PPD in each dimension were calculated by the weight of each indicator. RESULTS The scores of effectiveness， safety， economy， innovation and suitability of EC were all higher than those of TB-PPD. The affordability scores of the two drugs were consistent， while the availability score of EC was lower than those of TB-PPD. After considering dimensions and index weight， the scores of effectiveness， safety， economy， innovation， suitability， accessibility and the comprehensive score of EC were all higher than those of TB-PPD. CONCLUSIONS Compared with TB-PPD， EC performs better in all dimensions of effectiveness， safety， economy， innovation， suitability and accessibility. However， it is worth noting that EC should further improve its availability in the dimension of accessibility.
