Objective:To study the effects of glutamine on the rehabilitation and the immune function in patients with acute stroke. Methods: The study included 57 patients with cerebral ischemia and 29 patients with brain hemorrhage.Nutritional and immune function parameters were evaluated at admission and after 2 weeks following stroke respectively.Neurological deficit was also evaluated by the Chinese Stroke Scale at admission and after 28 days following stroke.The infective complications were investigated. Results:At the same duration after acute stroke,the extent of neurological deficit recovery was significantly lower in the control group than the glutamine group.The rate of the infective complications was significantly higher and it's duration was significantly longer in the control group than the glutamine group.The degree of nutriture and immune function deteriorating was significantly severer in the control group than the glutamine peptide group. Conclusion:Parenteral glutamine supplements is helpful for the rehabilitation and in preventing deterioration of nutrition status and immune function following acute stroke.

Objective To investigate clinical significance of positive antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in diagnosis for vasculitis or other diseases. Methods From January 2005 to December 2008, 104 patients with positive ANCA detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in People's Hospital of Peking University were randomly selected and their clinical features and diagnoses were analyzed retrospectively. Results Among 104 ANCA-positive patients, 22 were diagnosed as vasculitis and 13 as ANCA-associated vasculitis, and 82 (78. 8% )were diagnosed as non-vasculitis including 40 of connective diseases such as systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and 42 of non-connective diseases with the most common of ulcerative colitis. According to the results of ANCA tests by ELISA, ANCA-positive patients could be divided into those with proteinase 3 (PR3)-positive and myeloperoxideaso (MPO)-positive. More organs were involved in MPO-positive patients (n =48 ) than that in PR3-positive ones ( n = 49), and more frequent involvement of the kidneys and less frequent involvement of the gastrointestinal tract in MPO-positive than those in PR3-positive ones (P < 0. 01 ). As compared to those with non-vasculitis, more organs (2. 28 organs vs. 3.55 organs in average) were involved in patients with vasculitis (P <0. 01 ) and more frequent involvement of the upper or lower respiratory tracts and the kidneys in vasculitis patients ( P <0. 01 or <0. 05, respectively). Elevated leukocyte count and accelerated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were also more common in vasculitis patients than those in non-vasculitis ones (P <0. 01 and P <0. 05, respectively). Positive ANCA combined with number of organs involved, clinical manifestations and other laboratory findings, its positive predictive value (PPV) in diagnosis for vasculitis can be improved. Conclusions Spectrum of disease in patients with positive ANCA was varied. Diagnostic value of positive ANCA in diagnosis for vasculitis can be improved if combined with comprehensive analysis of their clinical features and laboratory examinations.

As a node between the skull and the spine, atlantoaxial joint plays a pivotal role in the maintenance of head and neck activities, as well as the connection between the brains and the spine. The biomechanical characteristics of stlantoaxial joint, together with traumatic factors, contribute to determine the site, type and character of atlantoaxial joint fracture and dislocation, they also affect the treatment of atlantoaxial joint injury. With the materials technique development and accumulated experience of clinical operations, various types of new implants are increasing and used for clinical practice, accordingly the surgical approach and therapy regimen of atlantoaxial disease have been greatly enriched. At present, the use of implant mainly aims to promote the atlantoaxial fusion or enhance the connection and fixation between atlantoaxial joints. However, the head and neck activities are also limited simultaneously while the implant enhances the atlantoaxial joint stability. Further studies require to handle the correlation between joint stability and joint flexibility and to maximize the physiological function recovery of atlantoaxial joints when ensuring the atlantoaxial joint stability.

Objective In order to increase significantly the discriminatory potential of Y-STR systems available to the forensic community , We have developed and validated a four-color fluorescence multiplex PCR system consisting of 7 male-specific and polymorphic Y-STRs. Methods We designed three sets of constant primers chimerited into three groups of 7 Y-STR's specific primers and utilized fluorescence- labeled these three sets of constant primers to amplified simultaneously 7 Y-STRs in a reaction tube. Allele and haplotype frequencies at these Y-STRs were screened by ABI PRISM310 Genetic Analyzer and analyzed by Genotyper software. Results Following optimization of the polymerase chain reaction , DYS434, Y-GATA-A10,DYS531, DYS557 , DYS456 , DYS444 and DYS448 in a sample of 120 unrelated males , showed4, 5, 5, 8, 8, 6,7 alleles respectively. A total of 101 different haplotypes was identified,of which 89 (88. 11% ) were found in single individuals. The overall haplotypes diversity reached 0.9958. To the one case of mixture stains, our multiplex system drawn conforming conclusion comparing to the result of Y-STR genotypes in suspect's blood sample. Conclusion Our results show that the multiplex system of 7 Y-STR will be very powerful for establishing Y-STR database, the paternity testing and mixture stains identifying.

Objective To provide evidence for the rational use of antibiotics.Methods Analyze on the results of pathogen detec-tion and antibiotic susceptibility tests for the patients in the hospital from January 2013 to December 2013.Results There were 2 111 strains of pathogenic bacteria detected in 2013,among which the Gram-negative bacteria accounted for 75.5%(1 594/2 111). The main species were Klebsiella pneumonia,Escherichia coli,Acinetobacter baumannii,Enterobacter cloacae,Pseudomonas aerugi-nosa,Klebsiella oxytoca.Gram-positive bacteria accounted for for 20.3%(428/2 111),the main species of which were Streptococcus pneumonia,Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecalis.There were 89 strains of fungi,which accoun-ted for 4.2%(89/2 111).The antibiotic susceptibility tests showed that Klebsiella pneumoniae′s drug resistance to 13 kinds of anti-biotics were all less than 25.00%.Escherichia coli,Acinetobacter baumannii,Pseudomonas aeruginosa displayed highly resistance to cephalosporin antibiotics while sensitive to Cefperazone-Sulbactam.The antibiotic resistance of Gram-positive bacteria to macrolide were greater than 70% while that to Vancomycin was 0.0%.Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis were highly re-sistant to penicillin.Conclusion The monitoring of bacterial resistance in hospital contributes to the rational use of antibiotics and avoiding the formation and spread of drug-resistant strains.
