OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria in septicemia in order to provide the reference for clinical antimicrobial agents usage.METHODS The blood samples of inpatients were cultured with blood culture apparatus,VITEK-AMS was used to identify the bacteria and conduct drug resistance test and ESBLs produced by Escherichia coli,and Klebsiella were detected by disc diffusion confirmatory test.RESULTS The 221 strains of pathogens that caused septicemia were mainly distributed in ICU,blood department and infection department.The 61 strains of E.coli were isolated,among which ESBLs were detected and accounted for 39.3%(24),26 strains of Klebsiella were isolated,among which ESBLs were detected and accounted for 26.9%(7),ESBLs strains were more resistant than ESBLs negative strains.Thirty two strains of Staphylococcus were isolated,among which MRS were detected and accounted for 62.5%(20).The pathogens showed highly multiple drug-resistance.Vancomycin and imipenem were the highest susceptible for Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria,respectively.CONCLUSIONS The pathogens that caused septicemia are mainly distributed in ICU,blood department and infection department.The situation of antibiotic resistance of pathogens is very serious now.Therefore,it is important to prevent the septicemia and to detect enzyme producing strains regularly for reference of reasonable antibiotic use.

OBJECTIVE To study the change and significance of TNF-? and IL-18 in the Acinetobacter baumannii sepsis. METHODS Sixty male SD rats were divided into 6 groups. The first group was normal control group. The second to sixth groups were sepsis groups which were killed at 4h,16h,24h,48h,72h after injecting A. baumannii through intraperitoneal injection to make sepsis model. The level of TNF-? and IL-18 in the serum of rats was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS The level of TNF-? in the serum increased markedly in the sepsis groups (P

Objective To explore the impact of healthcare-associated septicemia (HAS)on hospitalization expense as well as length of hospital stay,so as to optimize the allocation of healthcare resources,and provide scientific basis for reducing the economic burden caused by septicemia.Methods Hospitalized patients with confirmed HAS in a tertiary first-class teaching hospital between June 1 ,2012 and May 31 ,2015 were investigated retrospectively,con-trol group was set up in a 1 :1 ratio,hospitalization expense and length of hospital stay between two groups were compared.Results A total of 285 cases and 285 controls were enrolled in the study,the median of hospitalization expense in case group was higher than control group (¥19 718.39 vs ¥9 289.04,P <0.05);the median of length of hospital stay in case group was longer than control group (14.89 days vs 9.22 days,P <0.05).The disease bur-den caused by septicemia in different age groups and departments were different.The improvement rate of case group was lower than control group (76.49% [218/285 ]vs 83.51 % [238/285 ],χ2 = 2.562,P = 0.009 ). Conclusion As the common blood stream infection in hospitalized patients,septicemia not only increased the ex-pense of diagnosis and treatment,but also affected turnover rate of hospital bed.Rapid and effective diagnosis and treatment is significant o prevent and control septicemia.

Objective:(1)To explore the distribution features of ablation target of premature ventricular complex(PVC) origi‐nated from right ventricular outflow tract(RVOT) and ventricular tachycardia(VT) and its voltage characteristics .(2)To ex‐plore the relationship between ventricular arrhythmia originated from RVOT and regional low voltage of ROVT .Methods:A to‐tal of 97 patients ,who were indicated as ventricular arrhythmia originated from RVOT by electrocardiogram ,underwent radio‐frequency catheter ablation (RFCA) .During the operation ,99 morphologies of PVC and 6 morphologies of VT were recorded . Detailed three‐dimensional electroanatomical voltage mapping were performed prior to the RFCA .The voltage on bipolar elec‐trogram was defined as follows:amplitude < 0 .5 mV as“low‐voltage zone ,” amplitude between 0 .5 and 1 .5 mV as “transi‐tional‐voltage zone ,” and amplitude >1 .5 mV as “normal‐voltage zone .” Results:Successful ablation was acquired in 87 pa‐tients .Ablation was failed in 10 patients .Two patients’ ventricular arrhythmia originated from Valsava sinus and the others o‐riginated from RVOT .Among the patients with PVC originated from RVOT ,there were 8 targets in the low‐voltage zone ,59 targets in the transitional‐voltage zone ,and 30 targets in the normal‐voltage zone .Among the patients with abnormal voltage at target ,there were 3 ablation targets located in the low‐voltage and transitional‐voltage zone below the pulmonary valve and 34 ablation targets located in the regional low‐voltage and transitional‐voltage zone .Conclusions:The majority of successful abla‐tion targets of RFCA performed for ventricular arrhythmia originated from RVOT were located in the transitional‐voltage zone . The myocardial sleeve below pulmonary valve and regional fibrofatty myocardial tissue may be one the main pathogensis of ven‐tricular arrhythmia originated from RVOT .

Objective:To explore the effects of magnanimous therapy on the magnanimous and enterprising traits of lung cancer patients and the analysis of related factors.Methods:Totally 197 patients with lung cancer were divided into individual group ( n=62), team group ( n=75) and control group ( n=60). Comparison and correlation analysis were applied to the data before and after the electroencephalogram and the magnanimous questionnaire, the cancer response questionnaire, the T-type psychological scale, the cancer heart state questionnaire and the cancer patient's life function index scale. t test, analysis of variance and Pearson correlation analysis were processed by SPSS 23.0. Results:After treatment, the " enterprising" dimension and " magnanimous" dimension of individual group and the " enterprising" dimension of the team group ((3.035±0.309), (3.041±0.265), (3.173±0.371)) were higher than that before treatment((2.934±0.326), (2.908±0.315), (3.130±0.387), all P<0.05). There was negative correlation between " magnanimous" dimension of the magnanimous questionnaire and " subconscious" dimension of the T-type psychological scale in individual group( r=-0.280, P<0.05). In team group, the " enterprising" dimension of the magnanimous questionnaire was negatively correlated with " Psychological" and " Yield" dimension of the cancer heart state questionnaire( r=-0.279, -0.285, P<0.05), and positively correlated with " Facing" of the cancer response questionnaire, " Good physical condition and ability" and " Psychological well-being" dimension of the cancer patient's life function index scale( r=0.367, 0.402, 0.379, P<0.05). There was a negative correlation between the " enterprising" dimension of the magnanimous questionnaire and the beta wave value in individual group. Conclusion:The magnanimous therapy can improve enterprising and magnanimous level of patients with lung cancer, and the effects are related with the above-mentioned psychosomatic factors.

The global COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has infected over 109 million people, leading to over 2 million deaths up to date and still lacking of effective drugs for patient treatment. Here, we screened about 1.8 million small molecules against the main protease (Mpro) and papain like protease (PLpro), two major proteases in severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 genome, and identified 1851Mpro inhibitors and 205 PLpro inhibitors with low nmol/l activity of the best hits. Among these inhibitors, eight small molecules showed dual inhibition effects on both Mpro and PLpro, exhibiting potential as better candidates for COVID-19 treatment. The best inhibitors of each protease were tested in antiviral assay, with over 40% of Mpro inhibitors and over 20% of PLpro inhibitors showing high potency in viral inhibition with low cytotoxicity. The X-ray crystal structure of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro in complex with its potent inhibitor 4a was determined at 1.8 Å resolution. Together with docking assays, our results provide a comprehensive resource for future research on anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug development.
