Objective To investigate the value of liver function indexes(AApea index) in evaluation of chronic hepatitis pathohistological grading.Methods The biochemical tests and histopathological data of 800 patients who underwent liver biopsy with step discriminant screen,serum ALT,TBil,AST,A/G,EP,PA,and ALB were assayed.A liver function index(AApea index) was calculated according to these biochemical tests,and compared with histopathological data in each patient.Results The AApea index had a significantly positive correlation with the histological inflammatory grading,fibrosis staging,and severe degree(correlation coefficient were 0 559,0 545 and 0 529 respectively,P

To investigate MT 1 MMP mRNA expression in the development of liver fibrosis and during the reversal of liver fibrosis ,we undertook a dynamic observation by situ hybridization. Liver fibrosis model was established by intraperitoneal injection with CCl 4 in Wistar rats, then allowed them fo recover spontaneously to observe the reversal of liver fibrosis .The results showed that MT 1 MMP mRNA was expressed mainly in mesenchymal cells(such as hepatic stellate cell), also in a part of hepatocytes.The levels of MT 1 MMP mRNA expression were increased gradually in the development of liver fibrosis and decreased gradually during reversal of liver fibrosis. These results suggest that the expression of MT 1 MMP may have an important role in the development of liver fibrosis and its reversal.

Results The qualification rate by using ordinary cleaning method was 50.0%and it reached 60.0%and 73.3%by elevation of polyenzyme concentration and adding bedside pre-washing.which Was statistically different from that by using ordinary cleaning method(P＜0.05).Conclusions Bedside pre-washing could increase the cleaning degree of gastroscope;Endocheck lumen could be regarded as an evaluation method for the cleaning degree of gastroscope.

Objective To explore the effect of comprehensive intervention measure on antimicrobial use and incidence of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in patients in sports medicine department.Methods Antimicrobial use and incidence of HAI in hospitalized patients in the surgical departments (sports medicine department and other surgical departments)of a hospital between January 2006 and December 2010 were analyzed retrospectively(before intervention),from January 2011, comprehensive intervention based on clinical-centered multi-department cooperation was adopted by sports medicine depart-ment,the other surgical departments over the same period were not comprehensively intervened;antimicrobial use and inci-dence of HAI in patients in surgical departments between January 2012 and December 2013 were monitored prospectively (after intervention ),effectiveness of intervention was evaluated.Results Antimicrobial use and incidence of HAI in pa-tients in sports medicine department after intervention were both lower than before intervention (55.75% vs 95.26%,χ2=753.42;0.10% vs 0.32% ,χ2 =15.13,both P <0.01).Antimicrobial use in patients in other surgical departments after intervention was lower than that before intervention(65.63% vs 73.79% ,χ2 =251.57,P <0.01 );incidence of HAI was higher than that before intervention(0.55% vs 0.42% ,χ2 =19.04,P <0.01).Conclusion Comprehensive in-tervention measure based on clinical-centered multi-department cooperation is safe and effective,it can reduce antimicrobial use and incidence of HAI in patients in sports medicine department.

OBJECTIVE To understand the situation of the nosocomial infection among the hospital inpatients in a grade-A hospital in Beijing.METHODS Surveillance on nosocomial infection was performed among the hospital inpatients from Jan 2005 to Dec 2007.RESULTS From Sept 2006 to Aug 2007,803 cases were infected,the incidence was 1.99%.The lower respiratory tract ranked the first place(38.97%)and the highest infected rate was in ICU(16.16%).The species were predominated by Gram-negatives.The main pathogenic microorganisms were Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Staphylococcus aureus,Escherichia coli,Acinetobacter baumannii,Klebsiella pneumoniae and Candida albicans,etc.From 2005 to 2007,the infections caused by P.aeruginosa increased gradually,and the infections caused by C.albicans reduced gradually.CONCLUSIONS Many people should work to prevent and control the infections in hospital,such as doctors,nurses,inpatients,management workers,etc.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and drug resistance of nosocomial infection pathogens.METHODS The data of pathogen′s origin and antibacterial resistance of Intensive Care Unit(ICU) inpatients from Apr 2008 to Mar 2009 in a Hospital were analyzed.RESULTS There were 226 strains pathogens isolated from 116 nosocomial infection cases,from which the Gram-negative bacteria were predominate(63.27%).The resistance rates of Acinetobacter baumannii was the highest in Gram-negative bacteria,more than 70% isolates resistant to almost antibacterial.The main Gram-positive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus,and the rate of meticillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA) was 41.3%.All S.aureus were sensitive to vancomycin and Linezolid.CONCLUSIONS To control the antibacterial resistance of pathogens and decrease the nosocomial infection,it is important to strengthen the appropriate use of antibiotics.

OBJECTIVE To investigate a case of nosocomial infection incident in a hospital,analyze the reasons and put forward preventive measures.METHODS Investigation was carried out on the related people and environment in the department where the incident occurred.Analysis was made on the reasons and processing.RESULTS The nosocomial infection incident was caused by Norovirus;fecal-oral transmission and contact transmission were 2 main pathways of Norovirus.There were 7 persons who had been contaminated by Norovirus,included 5 old inpatients,1 doctor and 1 nurse.CONCLUSIONS Many people should work to prevent and control the infections in hospital,such as doctors,nurses,inpatients,hospital works etc.Hand-washing and disinfection isolation should be enhanced among the hospital staffs in the normal works.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus and autoimmune thyroid disorders are the most common combination of autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type Ⅲ(APS Ⅲ). However, APS Ⅲ combined with myasthenia gravis is rare. We described a male patient with myasthenia gravis, type 1 diabetes mellitus, and Hashimoto thyroiditis, who was diagnosed as APS Ⅲ. The human leukocyte antigen (HLA)type was analyzed in this patient. We subsequently reviewed 11 cases of APS Ⅲ combined with myasthenia gravis. This review revealed that HLA-DR9/DQ9 might be a specific HLA subtype associated with APS Ⅲ and complicated with myasthenia gravis .

OBJECTIVETo compare the effects between slow twisting needle insertion and tubing needle insertion.

METHODSWith cross-over design, 100 healthy young subjects (half male and half female) aged from 19 to 23 years were randomly divided into two groups by random digital table, 50 cases in each one. At the first stage, subjects in the group A were treated with slow twisting needle insertion while, subjects in,the group B were treated with tubing needle insertion. One week later, the procedure of second stage was performed alternately. The needle was inserted into Neiguan (PC 6) with two methods by one acupuncturist. The needle was retained for 5 min before removal. Five min before needle insertion as well as needle withdrawal and 30 min after needle withdrawal, ZXG-E automatic cardiovascular diagnostic apparatus was used to test cardiovascular function.

RESULTSAt the tim of needle withdrawal, slow twisting needle insertion could improve effect work of kinetics (EWK), effective blood volume (BV) and reduce elastic expansion coefficient of blood vessel (FEK) and left ventricular spray blood impedance (VER), which was significantly different from tubing needle insertion (all P < 0.05). Thirty min after needle withdrawal, the differences of the indices of cardiovascular function between the two groups were not significant (all P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe slow twisting needle insertion is significantly superior to tubing needle insertion on lowering vascular tension and VER, improving EWK and BV.
