Objective To investigate the nationwide prevalence of healthcare-associated infection (HAI),and es-tablish the related indexes of HAI.Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted through combination of bed-side investigation and medical record reviewing,the prevalence of HAI in hospitals of National HAI Surveillance System and other hospitals voluntarily participated in the survey were investigated according to unified survey pro-gram.Results A total of 1 008 584 patients in 1 766 hospitals participated in the survey,26 972 cases of HAI occurred, prevalence rate of HAI was 2.67%,antimicrobial usage rate was 35.01%.Difference in prevalence rates of HAI and anti-microbial usage rates among hospitals with different number of beds were both significant (χ2 =1 599.21,3 458.40,re-spectively,both P <0.01).The main infection sites were lower respiratory tract (47.53%),urinary tract (11.56%)and surgical site(10.41%).A total of 13 784 pathogenic strains were isolated,the top five pathogens were Pseudomonas aeruginosa ,Escherichia coli ,Klebsiella pneumoniae ,Acinetobacter baumannii ,and Staphylococcus aureus .Prevalence rate of HAI and prophylactic antimicrobial usage rate in patients receiving operation of class Ⅰincision were 1.01% and 27.99% respectively,difference in prophylactic antimicrobial usage rates in patients receiving operation of classⅠincision at hospitals with different number of beds were significant (χ2 =400.34,P <0.01 );among patients receiving antimicrobial prophylaxis,percentage of specimens sending for bacterial detection was 45.89%,difference in bacterial detection rates in hospitals with different number of beds were significant (χ2 =9 189.90,P <0.01).Hospital with more than 900 beds had the highest prevalence rate of HAI(3.36%),lowest usage rate of antimicrobial agents(32.35%),and highest bacterial de-tection rate(56.03%).Conclusion Multiple indexes of this cross-sectional survey revealed that HAI management in China has achieved remarkable results;meanwhile,calculation of the percentile distribution of each index is convenient for self-evaluation for HAI-related work in each hospital.

Objective To realize the incidence of healthcare-associated infection (HAI),the rate of invasive procedure and related infection rate,use of antimicrobial agents and distribution of pathogens in gereral intensive care units (GICUs) of hospitals in China.Methods HAI cross-sectional investigation data of GICUs reported to China HAI Surveillance Net-work were summarized and analyzed.Results Of 1 313 hospitals,621(47.30%)had GICUs;a total of 5 887 patients were surveyed,1 634 patients developed 1 962 times of infection,HAI prevalence rate and case rate was 27.76% and 33.33%respectively.The main infection sites were lower respiratory tract(70.39%),urinary tract (12.79%)and blood(2.86%). The application rate of urinary catheter,arteriovenous catheter and ventilator was 53.52%(n=3 151),37.05%(n=2 181) and 35.62%(n=2 097)respectively,and related prevalence of urinary tract infection,pneumonia and blood stream infection was 4.67%,20.41%,and 0.60%,respectively,which accounting for 58.57%,30.99%,and 23.21 % of urinary tract infection,pneumonia and blood stream infection respectively,the overall prevalence of above invasive procedure-re-lated infection accounted for 29.97%(588/1 962)of the overall HAI prevalence.A total of 1 795 isolated pathogens causing HAI were detected,the top three were Pseudomonas aeruginosa (20.78%),Acinetobacter baumannii(17.99%)and Klebsiella pneumoniae (11 .64%).The usage rate of antimicrobial agents was 71 .58%(n=4 214), rate of specimens delivered for detection was up to 75.27%(2 553/3 392).Conclusion Prevalence and antimicrobial use in patients in GICUs are all high,all kinds of invasive procedure are frequent,30% of HAI are related to inva-sive procedure;infection caused by non-fermentative bacteria is serious,pathogen detection is well performed.

Objective To investigate the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)management in grassroots medical institutes in a province.Methods Forty-six grassroots medical institutes in 13 cities of the prov-ince were selected randomly for the survey,questionnaires about the current situation of HAI management in grass-roots medical institutes were filled out,and related data were analyzed.Results Forty-four qualified questionnaires were adopted for analysis,and 2 unqualified questionnaires from public hospitals were excluded.HAI management in 44 medical institutes (100.00%)was in the charge of major leaders in medical institutes.Only 2 institutes(4.55%) set up independent HAI management departments,and 10 institutes(22.73%)established basic regulations and po-sition responsibilities of HAI management,38.67% of medical institutes established regulations of HAI prevention and control in key departments and responsibilities for key positions.The score for the establishment of basic regu-lations and position responsibilities of HAI management in village clinics was lower than the other medical institutes (F =5.762,P <0.01 ).Except aseptic technique,the core regulations of HAI management weren’t implemented well in village clinics compared with the other institutes(P <0.05).Conclusion Organizational settings,HAI man-agement of key departments,and core regulations of HAI management are not performed well in grassroots medical institutes in this province.Village clinics perform the worst in HAI management among all types of grassroots med-ical institutes.More measures,including education and surveillance,should be taken to improve HAI management in grassroots medical institutes.

The authors designed to separate, purify and determine the monosaccharide composition of the polysaccharide from Cordyceps militaris, and study its effect on reverse cholesterol transport in vivo by isotope tracing assay. Polysaccharides were separate and purify by ion exchange column Q-sepharose Fast Flow and size exclusion column Sephacryl S200HR; the molecular weight and monosaccharide composition of the polysaccharides were determined by high performance gel permeation chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography coming with pre-column derivation, respectively. Finally, three purified polysaccharides CMBW1, CMBW2 and CMYW1 were obtained, their total carbohydrate contents were 87%, 89%, 95%, respectively; their protein contents were 6.5%, 1.3%, 2.8%, respectively; their molecular weights were 772.1, 20.9, 13.2 kDa, respectively; CMBW1 was composed of mannose, glucosamine, rhamnose, glucuronic acid, glucose, galactose and arabinose with a molar ratio of 7.25: 0.17: 1.29: 0.23: 6.30: 11.08: 0.79; CMBW2 was composed of mannose, glucosamine, galactose and arabinose with a molar ratio of 2.40: 0.16: 2.92: 0.24; CMYW1 was composed of mannose, glucosamine, glucuronic acid and glucose with a molar ratio of 0.59: 0.57: 0.45: 25.61. Polysaccharide at 50 mg x kg(-1) could significantly improve the transport of 3H- cholesterol to blood and excretion from feces. All of the three purified polysaccharides CMBW1, CMBW2 and CMYW1 were heteropolysaccharide; and they could improve reverse cholesterol transport in vivo, the underlying mechanisms are being studied.

Three hundred and twenty-one bacteria strains were obtained from rice leaves,stem,root tissue and paddy field soil,of which the number of strains which can inhibit mycelium of Magnaporthe grisea growth markedly was fifty-seven through fermentation in 2.0 mL Eppendorf tube,and among these fifty-seven strains,five strains were strongly antagonistic to Magnaporthe grisea.These five strains was identified for their morphologic,physiological and biochemical characteristics,and the results showed that one strain(No.156)was bacillus subtilis,two strains(No.171 and No.177)were Bacillus pumillus and two strains(No.192 and No.279)were Bacillus ploymyxa.

In order to elucidate the effect of membrane stretch on ionic currents, we employed the whole-cell patch-clamp technique to investigate the effects of different kinds of stretch on voltage-dependent calcium currents in antrial circular smooth muscle cells of the guinea-pig. The membrane stretch induced by superfusing the smooth muscle cells with hyposmotic bath solution enhanced voltage-operated calcium current and activated inward holding current. The increase in calcium current occurred within 1 minute of superfusion and the sustained inward holding current was slowly activated after prominent cell swelling. Voltage-dependent calcium currents (Ica) were significantly increased by membrane stretch which was induced by cell swelling and cell inflation, but was not affected by direct longitudinal stretch (110～130%) using two electrodes.The results suggest that the cell membrane stretch can increase voltage-dependent calcium channel activity and the effect of stretch on calcium channels was related to the membrane tension and/or the direction of membrane stretch.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the preliminary curative effect of interspinous injections for the diagnosis and treatment of back pain caused by lumbar kissing spine (Baastrup's disease) under fluoroscopically guiding.

METHODSFrom November 2011 to March 2013,17 patients with back pain caused by Baastrup's disease were treated with fluoroscopically-guided interspinous injections, including 7 males and 10 females with an average age of 49.6 years old ranging from 40 to 71 years old; the duration of the disease ranged from 2 to 5 years with a mean of 3.7 years. The visual analogue scale (VAS) and the lumbar segments range of motion (ROM) was analyzed at pre-operation, 2 days, 3 months and final followed-up after operation, the effects were evaluated with modified Macnab standard.

RESULTSAll patients were follow-up from 6 to 10 months with an average of 7.6 months. The pre-operative VAS was 6.41 +/- 0.94, the postoperative VAS at different time points improved significantly comparing with pre-operation,and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.01). There was no significant difference in VAS at different time points after operation (P > 0.05). The ROM of operated segment and adjacent segment was (4.88 +/- 0.86) degrees and (6.82 +/- 0.73) degrees respectively at pre-operation. The postoperative operated segment ROM at different time points improved significantly comparing with pre-operation, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Compared with pre-operation, there was no significant difference in adjacent segment ROM at different time points after operation (P > 0.05). According to modified Macnab, the result was excellent in 6 cases, good in 7 cases, fair in 3 cases and poor in 1 case.

CONCLUSIONFluoroscopically-guided interspinous injections is an effective method for the diagnosis and treatment of Baastrup's disease. The method has advantages of simple operation, minimal invasion and safety, satisfactory short-term and medium-term therapeutic effect; it can also effectively lessen the pain of lumbar and back.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and accuracy of volumetric measurement of necrotic lesion using CT and MRI,and to assess the value of necrotic lesion volume in predicting collapse of the femoral head in patients with avascular necrosis of the femoral head(ANFH). Methods Comparison among CT,MRI and gross section was performed in 25 femoral heads of 18 patients who underwent total hip replacement for established ANFH.The volume of necrotic lesion was measured using fluid displacement.CT and MRI data were transferred to a computer to calculate the volume of necrotic lesion using software.One way ANOVA was used to compare the volumes of necrotic lesion measured by CT,MRI and gross section.A total of 62 patients (92 hips) who were diagnosed with ANFH but without collapse by CT were followed up 24 months.Student t-test was used to compare the ratio of the volumes of the necrotic lesion and entire femoral head in the hips with and without collapse and ROC curve analysis was carried out.Results CT and MRI coincided with gross section in the necrotic area,proliferative area and extralesional area.The volumes of the necrotic lesion measured by CT,MRI and gross section were ( 20.5 ± 5.2 ),( 21.4 ± 4.8 ),( 20.9 ± 5.2 ) cm3,respectively.There was no significant difference among the necrotic volumes measured by the three methods(F =0.185,P =0.831 ).In fifty-seven out of 92 hips,collapse of the femoral head occurred during the follow-up.The ratio of the volumes of the necrotic lesion and entire femoral head was higher in hips with collapse than in hips without collapse[ (34.5 ±9.3)％ vs.(23.4 ±8.4)％ ;t =5.749,P=0.000].The area under the ROC curve was 0.808. Conclusions The volume of the necrotic lesion plays an important role in the collapse of femoral head in patients with ANFH.Both CT and MRI can identify the shape and location of the necrotic lesion intuitively and stereospecifically and can determine the volume of the necrotic lesion accurately.
