OBJECTIVE To investigate the application of antibacterials in patients accepted operation in grass-roots(hospitals),so to standardize the application of antibacterials and cut down the medical cost.METHODS Full-time administrators for nosocomial infection investigated the application of antibacterials in patients who accepted(operation) in Sep 2004,and filled in the questionnaires.RESULTS In 1 383 cases of 11 hospitals the application rate of antibacterials was 98.63%;in which 86.50% were for prophylactic usage and 13.50% for therapeutic usage;(29.90%) for single antibiotics treatment and 50.15% for bigeminy,18.70% were for trigeminy.Time of(application) differentiated(6.90,7.00,6.60d) fromⅠto Ⅲ kinds of operation.Per capita cost of antibacterials was $956.50(47.60%).CONCLUSIONS High cost of antibacterials results from such factors as multiple kinds,long time and(combined) application.

Objective To explore the effect of different doses of dobutamine on acute lung injury (ALI) in rabbits with septic shock and to clarify the possible mechanism.Methods The rabbits model of septic shock was made by cecal ligation and puncture combined with intravenous injection of endotoxin,70 male New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into five groups (14 rabbits in each groups):shamc operation group (group A),ALI group (group B),dobutamine low-dose group (group C),dobutamine medium-dose group (group D) and dobutamine high-dose group (group E),7 rabbits from each group were sacrificed 3 h and 6 h after septic shock.The level of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in lung tissue was detected by ELISA.The expression of aquaporin 5 (AQP5) protein was determined by western blotting.The wet to dry weight (W/D) ratio was measured.The pathological and ultrastructural changes of lung tissue were evaluated by optical microscopy and electron microscope,and lung injury score was assessed.The differences among the different groups were analyzed by one-way ANOVA (LSD test).Results The level of cAMP and expression of AQP5 protein in lung tissue at 3 h and 6 h were dramatically lower in group B than those in group A (3.53 ±0.43) pmol/mLvs.(21.18 ±0.62) pmol/mL; (0.44 ± 0.04) pmol/mLvs.(0.99±0.06)pmol/mL; (2.71±0.56)pmol/mLvs.(21.78±0.62)pmol/mL; (0.29 ±0.05) pmol/mLvs.(0.91 ±0.06) pmol/mL; all P ＜0.001,while the W/D ratio was obviously higher in group B than those in group A (all P ＜0.001).Compared with group B,the level of cAMP and AQP5 protein expression in lung tissue were significantly increased at 6 h in group C (8.48 ±0.61) pmol./ mLvs.(2.71±0.56) pmol/mL,P＜0.01; (0.49 ±0.04) pmol/mLvs.(0.29 ±0.05) pmol/mL,P=0.001 and at3 hand6 hin groupDandE (10.86±0.66) pmol/mLvs.(3.53±0.43) pmol/mL; (0.60±0.05) pmol/mLvs.(0.44±0.04) pmol/mL; (13.80±0.49) pmol/mLvs.(2.71±0.56) pmol/mL; (0.64 ± 0.03) pmol/mLvs.(0.29 ± 0.05) pmol/mL; (15.57 ± 0.60) pmol/mL vs.(3.53±0.43) pmol/mL; (0.91 ±0.05) pmol/mLvs.(0.44 ±0.04) pmol/mL; (19.30±0.42) pmol/mL vs.(2.71 ±0.56) pmol/mL; (0.89 ±0.08) pmol/mL vs.(0.29 ±0.05) pmol/mL; all P ＜ 0.01,while the W/D ratio in group E was decreased obviously (P =0.002; P =0.001).Compared with group C and D,the level of cAMP and the expression of AQP5 protein at 3 h and 6 h in group E increased significantly (all P ＜0.01.The pathological and ultrastructural changes of lung tissue were more intensive in group B than those in group A and the lung injury scores were obviously higher (P ＜0.01).The degree of lung pathological and ultrastructural lesion was ameliorated after administration of dobutanmine.Additionally,histological scores decreased significantly (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Our study demonstrated that dobutamine could improve ALI induced by endotoxin,the mechanism of protective effect may involve in increasing the level of cAMP and up-regulating the AQP5 protein expression,and high-dose dobutamine had better effects.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the level of 8-iso-prostaglandin (8-iso-PG)F2αand the neural functional deficit in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI). Methods Sixty-seven ACI patients were se-lected in Neurological Department of Ganyu People’s Hospital. According to the age, these subjects were divided into two groups:the old group (≥60 years, n=37) and middle-young group (<60 years, n=30). Thirty healthy subjects were selected as controls (≥60 years). The age, gender and anamnesis were matched in two groups of elderly people. The ELISA was used to detect the plasma levels of 8-iso-PGF2αin two groups of patients. And NIHSS score was used to evaluate the severity of clinical neurological deficit. Results The plasma levels of 8-iso-PGF2α were significantly higher in old ACI group (506.38±138.63) ng/L than those of middle-young ACI group (420.18±132.72) ng/L and old control group (369.98±99.81) ng/L. There was no significant difference in plasma level of 8-iso-PGF2αbetween middle-young ACI group and old control group (F=9.272,P<0.05). The NIHSS score was significantly higher in old group (19.78±3.66) than that of middle-young group (17.73 ± 2.70, t=2.539,P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between plasma 8-iso-PGF2α level and NIHSS score in old group (r=0.504,P=0.001). Conclusion The oxidative stress plays an important role in the occurrence and de-velopment process of ACI in elderly patients. The earlier and reasonable antioxidant therapy plays a positive role to alleviate the clinical symptoms and promote the recovery of illness.
