This paper reported that bronchial artery embolization(BAE)had been used to treat 35 non tumorous patients who suffered from recurrent hemoptysis or acute severe hemoptysis after the given medical treatment was proved uneffective in 35 patients,7 patients had recurrent hemoptysis during 1.5～19 months postoperatively and were treated by BAE again,and there was no recurrence of hemoptysis during 7～34 months follow-up.Therefore, the authors considered that repeated BAE was still effective in treating recurrent hemoptysis.

Objective To study the effect of new type antiseptic gallium nitrate on the clearance of Staphylococcus aureus (S .aureus)biofilm,and explore new methods for suppressing bacterial biofilm formation.Methods Biofilm positive strains were screened among 14 clinically isolated S .aureus strains by crystal violet staining method,mini-mal inhibitory concentration (MIC)of gallium nitrate for biofilm positive strains and effect of gallium nitrate on the clearance of biofilm were measured.Results Of 14 S .aureus isolates,9 were biofilm positive strains;gallium ni-trate MICs for S .aureus ATCC 25923,biofilm-negative strain,and 9 biofilm positive strains were all 16 μg/mL;the clearance rate of gallium nitrate for early biofilm of S .aureus was significantly higher than mature biofilm ([86.53±0.96]% vs [62.54±1 .53]%,t=35.699,P <0.001 ).Conclusion Gallium nitrate can inhibit growth of S .aureus strains and clear biofilm,it can be applied in the prevention and control of S .aureus infection.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the related factors effecting the teicoplanin concentration..METHODS: The patients′ information who accepted teicoplanin therapy and their plasma on the fourth day treatment were collected. The plasma was processed and detected by HPLC method. A multiple linear regression method was used to explore the relationship between the teicoplanin concentration and other factors. RESULTS: The result of multiple linear regression shows that the teicoplanin concentration relates with the creatine clearance and hypersensitive C-reactive protein. CONCLUSION: The teicoplanin treatment regimen could be altered by the level of patients′ creatine clearance and hypersensitive C-reactive protein in order to deliver a better individual treatment.
