OBJECTIVE To investigate the risk factors and to take some useful measures to prevent and reduce infection in order to enhance medical quality,to ensure medical security,to strengthen hospital infection manangement and to prevent hospital infection effectively. METHODS We investigated the prevalence rate of hospital infection among our hospitalized patients in 2001,2003 and 2005, respectively. RESULTS The hospital infection rate was 4.6-6.42% in these years.Risk factors and the abuse of antibiotic were decreasing. CONCLUSIONS In order to control hospital infection rate,mensures should be taken including intensively monitoring the departments with high infection rate,strengthening hospital operation,rationally using the antibiotics,and studying the management for hospital infection.

Objective:To investigate the strategies and methods of pancreatic cancer immunotherapy adopt cytotoxic T lymphocytes activated by dendritic cells(DCs),which modified by heat shock protein 70 peptide complex(HSP70-PC).Methods:HSP70 peptide complex from lumps of tumor-bearing mouse innoculated with pancreas cancer cell(MPC83)were purified by ConA-Sepharose and ADP-Agarose affinity chromatography.Dendritic cells derived from normal murine bone marrow were induced by GM-CSF and IL-4.MTT method was applied to analyses the proliferation activities of DCs.To achieve the specific T lymphocyte cells,DCs modified with HSP70 peptide complex were coculture with murine spleen lymphocytes for 48 hours.Then these activated lymphocytes were cocultured with MPC83 at ratio of effect-target 10∶1 and 20∶1 in vitro and the killing activities were detected by MTT method.Results:High purify HSP70-PC was obtained;104 DCs need 50~100ng of HSP70-PC to modify,100?g of HSP70-PC peptide complex can be extracted from per 1g lump;T cells stimulated by HSP70-PC modify DCs showed more specific cytotoxic activity to MPC83 than lymphocytes activated by DCs without HSP70-PC in vitro.Conclusion:We can extract high purity HSP70-PC for clinical individual immunotherapy from pancreatic cancer lump by using hypobaric affinity chromatography;DCs vaccine modified with HSP70-PC has significant kill effect against pancreatic cancer cell in vitro.

Objective To study the immunophenotypic feature of CD+2 adult B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (CD+2 B-ALL) and provide evidences for the diagnosis, therapy and prognosis. Methods The immunophenotypes of 18 cases of adult CD+2 B-ALL and 68 cases of adult CD-2 B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(CD-2 B-ALL) were assayed by a panel of monoclonal antibodies (McAbs) with FACS. Results The age of CD+2 B-ALL adults was younger compared to that of CD-2 B-ALL. The patients in the CD; group were similar to CD-2 group for the expression of most of the cell surface antigens assayed. However, it was notable that expression frequencies of CD10 [(73.78±26.67) %] in CD+2 B-ALL was higher than those in CD; B-ALL [(52.84±35.25) %] (t = 2.35, P<0.05) and CD33 [(15.46±27.41) %] were significantly lower than that of CD2 BALL [(31.15+27.72) %] (t = 2.16, P<0.05). Both groups showed high positive expression for CD34 72.2 % (13/ 18) and 80.9 % (55/68), respectively (χ2 = 0.64, P >0.05). The CD20 expression in CD+2 B-ALL was lower than that in CD-2 B-ALL significantly (χ2 = 11.38, P <0.05). The myeloid antigen (CD13 or CD33) expression in CD+2 B-ALL 44.4 % (8/18) was lower than that in CD-2 B-ALL 72.1 %(49/68) (χ2 = 4.86, P <0.05). Conclusion Patients in the CD+2 B-ALL were similar to CD-2 B-ALL for expression of most of the cell surface antigens assayed. CD+2 B-ALL showed low expression frequency of myeloid antigens (CD13, CD33) and CD20 antigens than CD-2 B-ALL. These results suggested that those with the CD+2 B-ALL immunophenotype generally presented with favorable prognostic features and usually could achieve good outcomes after treatment.

Objective To assess the clinical value of 131I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy in pheochromocytoma. Methods A total of 430 patients with clinically suspected pheochromocytoma underwent 131I-MIBG whole body scintigraphy, 326 among them underwent B-ultrasound, 400 for CT and 77 for MR examination respectively. While 178 among them were diagnosed with pathology and the others were diagnosed clinically. Results Of all the patients, 108 were diagnosed pheochromocytoma, including 89 131I-MIBG scan positive and 19 negative. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 131I-MIBG were 82.41%, 100% and 95.70%, respectively. 131I-MIBG scan detected 90.00% of unilateral adrenal, 45.45% of bilateral adrenal, 85.71% of ectopic and 66.67% of malignant lesions, respectively. The proportion of patients with positive 131I-MIBG scan increased from 20.69% in all patients to 35.15% in patients with clinical symptoms and positive conventional imaging (at least one of B-ultrasonography, CT or MR was positive) and 64.58% in those with clinical symptoms, positive conventional imaging, and elevated 24 h urinary catacholamines. In 59 patients with adrenal incidentaloma, 8 were scan-positive and all had confirmed pheochromocytoma, while 2 of scan-negative patients also had confirmed pheochromocytoma. Conclusion 131I-MIBG scintigraphy is the first choice for the diagnosis of both adrenal and extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma. However, it is inappropriate to take this method as the initial screening approach.

Objective The clinical effect of the lateral femoral cutaneous artery flap for soft tissue defects of leg wounds. Methods From October 2007 to January 2016, VSD was firstly used to promote the growth of granulation tissue. When the growth of granulation tissue became satisfactory, flaps were designed based on the anatomical characteristics of the lateral femoral cutaneous artery. We repaired 20 cases of wound defects by cutting flaps that coincide with the recipient vessels. Result 20 cases were followed up for 6 to 24 months, 12 months on average. All flaps were survived and only one case had small area of necrosis flap which was healed by replacing medicines. In all cases, wounds were healed and flaps showed good color and good texture. The strength of quadriceps muscle was good and the extension of knee flexion was 0° to 150°. Conclusion To The lateral femoral cutaneous artery flap is used for soft tissue defects of refractory wounds on leg , flap donor sites are sutured directly, the treatment period is shorten and the method is safe and effective. The lateral femoral cutaneous artery flap is one of ideal choices for wound tissue defects.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of liver transplantation including living related liver transplantation for Caroli's disease (CD). Methods Seven consecutive patients with diffused type of Caroli's disease had undergone liver transplantation (LT) from September 1999 to February 2007 in our single center. The clinical characteristics and survival of these patients were retrospectively reviewed. Results All 7 patients were diagnosed as Caroli's disease with diffused type which manifested recurrent cholangitis in clinical symptoms. Among them, 4 were female and 3 male.The mean age was 16 years old (ranging from 10 to 31 years old). Six patients were subjected to conservative therapy and only one patient had previously undergone cholecystectomy and T tube drainage before transplantation. In types of surgery, 4 patients accepted split liver transplantation with right liver lobe, two got whole liver transplantation and only one underwent living related liver transplantation. In two patients venovenous bypass was done during the operation. The mean duration of surgery was 9. 1 h. Post-transplant complications included pulmonary infection (3 cases), acute rejection (2 cases), pleural effusion (2 cases) and biliary leakage in the split section of donor liver (1 case). One patient died within 19 days caused by acute renal failure and multiple organs dysfunction.The rest six patients are alive without any signs of recurrence of protopathy and the longest survival time is 7 years. Conclusion Liver transplantation is a valuable treatment to Caroli's disease with diffused type. Due to the organ shortage, living related liver transplantation may own identical effects on LT.
