The purpose of this study was to found a three dimensional anatomical model of normal knees in Chinese and to carry out measurements of the relating parameters with this model. Three dimensional CT scan of 18 normal Chinese (36 knees) were acquired. All the cases were divided into three groups according to the height of each individual (156～165cm, 166～175cm, 176～185cm), with each group consisting of 6 individuals (12 knees). Data of the 6 ipsilateral knees were integrated to create a typical three dimensional anatomical model. Altogether 15 parameters including the linear and the angular indices were measured through this model. The results showed: (1) Most anatomical characteristics of the knee of typical Chinese population could be covered by the 3 D model we established; (2) There were stable positive relationships between different linear parameters and between the linear parameters and the body height; (3) The angular parameters were comparatively independent. This well developed 3 D model could provide a reliable method on the measurements of the knee geometry in Chinese people.

OBJECTIVE To study the epidemiology of the drug-resistant genes in meticillin-resistant coagulase negative staphylococcus(MRCNS).METHODS mecA,aac(6′)/aph(2″) and aph(3′)-Ⅲgenes of aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme(AME) and ermA/B/C genes of erythromycin methyltransferase were detected by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) from 40 MRCNS strains.RESULTS Thirty-nine strains carried mecA gene,32 strains with aac(6′)/aph(2″) gene,15 strains with aph(3′)-Ⅲ gene,30 strains with ermA/B/C gene and 2 strains with tetM gene in 40 MRCNS strains.CONCLUSIONS About 65% MRCNS strains carry mecA,aac(6′)/aph(2″),/aph(3′)-Ⅲ and ermA/B/C genes at the same time.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the antibiotic resistance status in clinical strains of Staphylococcus aureus (SAU) in Xiangfan and provide scientific evidence for reasonable use of antibiotics. METHODS Retrospective review was performed to analyzed the specimen source and the clinical distribution of 359 strains of SAU. BioMerieux Vitek 32 was used to identify the species of bacteria. Antibiotic susceptibility test was performed by K-B method and drug-resistance results were read according to CLSI2006. RESULTS Isolating rate of methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) arrived at 54.9%. The results of susceptibility test showed that SAU had been resistant to the diverse antibiotics in different degree. The drug sensitivity rate of glycopeptide antibiotics and linezolid were all 100%. CONCLUSIONS The different grade hospitals should practically perform the management of antibiotics to postpone the resistance development and control outbreak and prevalence of nosocomial infections.

Abstract As a new type of pollutant, microplastics have attracted extensive attention. Children in a critical stage of growth and development are vulnerable to microplastics. Summarzing the relevant laws and regulations and the source of microplastics, the paper demonstrates the ways of microplastics entering human body, some toxic effects of microplastics found in recent experimental studies and their potential hazards to children s health are introduced in detail.

Objective To evaluate the application of a self-designed handy body position scaffold in the fluoroscopy for lower limb surgery.Methods We reviewed the intraoperative X-ray films of 161 patients with lower limb fracture who had undergone intraoperative fluoroscopy using our self-made handy body position scaffold during surgery from October 2013 to May 2017.They were 105 males and 56 females,aged from 10 to 91 years (mean,39.7 years).There were 42 femoral fractures of middle or lower shaft,12 fractures of medial or lateral condyle or tibial plateau,96 tibiofibular fractures,7 ankle fractures and 4 foot fractures.The operation time,intraoperative fluoroscopy time,intraoperative bleeding,rate and time of fracture union,and complications were recorded.Results All the 161 patients completed intraoperative fluoroscopy and radiography uneventfully,indicating that the handy body position scaffold effectively maintained the body position of the affected ipsilateral lower limb.The body position scaffold was slightly deviated due to one overweight (121 kg) patient when the knee joint was flexed 90°,but the fluoroscopy and radiography was completed after adjustment of the C-arm roentgenographic machine.The operation time averaged 71.5 minutes (from 28 to 119 minutes),the X-ray exposure time 9.8 seconds (from 6 to 31 seconds),and the intraoperative bleeding 157.2 mL (from 80 to 500 mL).The 161 patients obtained follow-up for 5 to 22 months (average,14.1 months).The rate of primary union was 97.5％ (157/161).The time for fracture union averaged 8.8 weeks (from 4 to 17 weeks).Fracture nonunion occurred in one case,and delayed union in 3 cases.The final follow-ups revealed normal functional recovery of the affected knees and ankles,but no limb shortening,or no rotational,lateral or anteroposterior angulation deformity.Conclusion In the lower limb surgery,the intraoperative fluoroscopy can be completed better with the aid of our self-designed handy body position scaffold that prevents movement of the affected lower limb and lowers the risk of radiation exposure.

Objective:To analyze the distribution of clinically isolated fungal strains and their resistance to common antifungal drugs in Shandong province.Methods:Through the Shandong Children’s Bacterial & Fungal Drug Resistance Surveillance and Research Collaborative Network, a total of 1 030 fungi were collected in 46 hospitals of Shandong province from January 1 to December 31, 2018. The source and type of strains were analyzed, and antifungal drug sensitivity tests were performed by using the micro-dilution method. Whonet 5.6 and SPSS 22.0 were applied to analyze the data.Results:The overall main strains were Candida albicans (38.74%, 399/1 030), Candida tropicalis (16.99%, 175/1 030) and Candida parapsilosis (16.41%, 169/1 030); the main fungi strains in child patients were C. albicans (52.50%, 63/120), C. parapsilosis (12.50%, 15/120) and C. tropicalis (9.17%, 11/120); the main fungi strains in adult patients were C. albicans (36.37%, 331/910), C. tropicalis (17.03%, 155/910) and C. parapsilosis (15.27%, 139/910). The isolation rate of main Candida strains from January to March and August to December was much higher than that of other months. The drug resistance rates of C. albicans to fluconazole and voriconazole were 7.14% and 7.43%, respectively, and the drug resistance rates to itraconazole were 50.44%. The resistance rates of C. tropicalis to fluconazole, voriconazole and itraconazole were 29.05%, 23.29% and 48.65%, respectively. The sensitivity rates of C. parapsilosi to fluconazole, voriconazole and itraconazole were 93.06%, 93.75% and 94.44%, respectively. Candida glabrata showed a dose-dependent sensitivity rate of 2.33% to fluconazole. Analysis of 244 blood fungi strains showed that non-candida albicans bacteremia accounted for 70.08%. In the pathogen spectrum covering 92.22%, fluconazole was sensitive to 64.65% of the pathogens, voriconazole was 68.88%, and amphotericin B was 88.75%. After quantification, the effective rates of fluconazole, voriconazole and amphotericin B in the clinical treatment of fungal bacteremia were 70.10%, 74.69% and 96.23%, respectively. Among them, the sensitivity rate of voriconazole to C. tropicalis was lower than that of fluconazole. Conclusions:Candida is the main clinical fungus isolates in hospitals of Shandong province. The resistance rate of C. tropicalis to azole antifungal drugs is on the rise, and the sensitivity of other Candida species to clinically used antifungal drugs is basically stable.
