Objective:To explore the effects of self-made Huoxue Xiaozhong Xunxi Decoction combined with functional exercise on postoperative swelling of affected limbs, bone metabolism and recovery of knee function in patients with traumatic fracture of tibial plateau (FTP).Methods:Randomized controlled trial. totally 80 patients after FTP surgery in the Qidong Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were enrolled and divided into two groups by random number table method from January 2018 to January 2022, with 40 cases in each group. After surgery, control group was treated with functional exercise, while observation group was additionally treated with self-made Huoxue Xiaozhong Xunxi Decoction. All were treated continuously for 8 weeks. The perioperative indexes (operation time, incision length, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, leaving bed time) in the two groups were recorded. The postoperative swelling and pain of affected limbs were observed, and detumescence time, pain relief time, fracture healing time and complete weight-bearing time were recorded. The knee function was evaluated by Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS). The level of serum bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) was detected by ELISA, and total n-terminal propeptide of typeⅠprecollagen (t-PINP) and β-crossLaps (β-CTX) were detected by full-automatic immunoluminescence analyzer. The occurrence of postoperative complications in the two groups was recorded.Results:There was no significant difference in operation time, incision length, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume or leaving bed time between the two groups ( P>0.05). The total effective rate of the observation group was 97.5% (39/40), while the control group was 80.0% (32/40), with statistical significance ( χ2=6.14, P=0.013). The detumescence time, pain relief time, fracture healing time and complete weight-bearing time were earlier in the observation group than control group ( P<0.01). After 10 d of treatment, VAS score and swelling degree in observation group were lower than those in the control group ( t=7.05, 3.81, P<0.01). After 8 weeks of treatment, levels of serum BMP-2 [(625.16±67.43) μg/L vs. (542.35±53.27) μg/L, t=6.10], t-PINP [(54.16±7.29) μg/L vs. (50.34±6.12) μg/L, t=2.54] and β-CTX [(1.26±0.38) μg/L vs. (1.04±0.23) μg/L, t=3.13] in observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). During treatment, the incidence of complications in the observation group was 2.5% (1/40) and the control group was 7.5% (3/40), without statistical significance ( χ2=1.05, P=0.305). Conclusion:Self-made Huoxue Xiaozhong Xunxi Decoction combined with functional exercise is beneficial to improve pain and swelling of affected limbs and bone metabolism, and promote the recovery of knee function in patients after FTP surgery.

Objective : To explore the correlation between oral mucosal lichen planus and Helicobacter pylori infection by analyzing the infection status of Helicobacter pylori in patients with oral mucosal lichen planus. Methods: 14C- urea breath test was done in 69 patients with oral lichen planus and 28 patients with chronic inflammation of oral mucosa. Detection of serum anti Helicobacter pylori antibody was done in 32 patients (23 with oral lichen planus and 9 with chronic inflammation of oral mucosa) at the same time. Results : The positive rate of 14C-urea breath test was 68.12% in patients with oral lichen planus and 46.43% in chronic inflammation of oral mucosa. There was significant difference between the 2 groups (χ2=3.970, P=0.046). The positive rate of anti Helicobacter pylori antibody was 52.17% in patients with oral lichen planus and 22.22% in chronic inflammation of oral mucosa, and there was no significant difference between the 2 groups (χ2=2.358, P=0.125). Conclusion The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with oral lichen planus is higher, and there is a relevance between oral lichen planus and Helicobacter pylori infection.

Objective: To analyses the antimicrobial resistance and molecular characterization of 21 MRSA isolates cultured from retail foods from different provinces in China, and evaluate the molecular typing methods. Methods: Twenty-one MRSA isolates were obtained from national foodborne pathogen surveillance network in 2012 (Chinese salad, n=3; milk, n=1; cake, n=2; rice, n=1; cold noodle, n=1; spiced beef, n=1; dumpling, n=1; packed meal, n=1; salad, n=1; raw pork, n=9). The antimicrobial resistance of 21 strains to 12 antimicrobial agents was tested by broth dilution method. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and DNA sequencing were performed to obtain the genetic types of MLST (ST) and spa typing. The clonal complex (CC) was assigned by eBURST soft and the MLVA type (MT) and MLVA complex (MC) were identified via the database of the MLVA website (http://www.mlva.net). SmaI pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (SmaⅠ-PFGE) was also carried out to obtain the PFGE patterns of 21 strains. The genetic diversity and discriminatory power of typing were calculated by the Simpson's index of diversity (diversity index, DI) to find out the best genotyping method for MRSA. Results: All MRSA isolates showed multi-drug resistance(MDR), and were resistant to oxacillin, benzylpenicillin, clindamycin and erythromycin, and 71.4% (15/21), 47.6% (10/21), 42.9% (9/21) and 28.6% (6/21) of the MRSA isolates were resistant to tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole and gentamicin, respectively. Moreover, one strain was found to be resistant to all three antimicrobials of levofloxacin, moxifloxacin and rifampicin. Great diversity was found in these food-associated MRSA (6 STs, 7 spa types, and 9 MTs). PFGE patterns were more diverse than those of other three molecular typing methods (19 pulse types). The index of diversity (DI) of PFGE, MLVA, spa typing and MLST was 0.99, 0.80, 0.73, and 0.61, respectively. Among the MRSA isolates, CC9-ST9-t899-MT929-MC2236 (PFGE Cluster Ⅴ) was the most prevalent clone, which were all cultured from raw pork (9 isolates). Besides, two MRSA were identified as CC59-ST338-t437-MT621-MC621 (PFGE Cluster Ⅳ). Different clone had their own resistance spectrum profiles. Conclusion The food-borne MRSA isolates were all MDR in this study. Different clones had their own resistance spectrum profiles. MLVA represented a promising tool for molecular epidemiology tracing of MRSA in foodborne disease events.

Objective: To obtain the serotype diversity and antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella isolates recovered from retail chicken carcasses for sale in six regions of China. Methods: From August 2010 to March 2012, each month 20 retail chicken carcasses including freshly slaughtered, chilled and frozen samples were collected from supermarkets and farmer's markets in 7 monitoring sites in Beijing, Jilin province, Inner Mongolia Autonomous, Shanxi province, Jiangsu province and Guangdong province, respectively. Samples were routinely collected for 12 months for each site. 1 680 chicken carcasses were collected in total and 2 629 Salmonella strains were isolated by PCR and biochemical method. Luminex xMAP method and classical slide agglutination method were carried out to determine isolates' serotypes. Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 10 classes of antimicrobials including 14 agents were determined using broth micro-dilution method. Mocular methods were used to determine antimicrobial resistance genes of CIP-CTX-CT co-resistant isolates. Results: In all, 2 629 Salmonella isolates, there were 17 seorgroups and 58 serotypes, B and D1 were the dominant serogroups with rates of 34.7% (n=913) and 31.0% (n=815), Enteritidis (30.8%, n=810), Indiana (17.6%, n=463), Infantis (10.6%, n=278) were the top three serovars. We found 224 CIP-CTX co-resistant S. Indiana containing 3 colistin resistant strains, one of them carrying mcr-1 gene and being ESBLs positive, which demonstrated a nine multi drug resistance against 11 antimicrobials tested. Conclusion These data began to describe the complicated serovar diversity and heavy antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella isolates recovered from retail chicken carcasses in six regions of China. The findings highlight the emergence of ciprofloxacin and cefotaxime co-resistant S. Indiana and also a mcr-1 positive S. Indiana with heavy multi drug resistance.
