Objective To explore the risk factors for urinary tract infections in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM )by analyzing the pathogens distribution characteristics and drug sensitivity. Methods A total of 3 ,065 T2DM patients were retrospectively analyzed for the clinical and etiological characteristics of urinary tract infections in T2DM. All patients enrolled in the study were divided into two groups :T2DM with urinary tract infection group (n= 210) and simple T2DM group (n= 132). Data harvested were analyzed by SPSS 19.0. Results Of 3 ,065 patients with T2DM the incidence of urinary tract infection was 6.85%. Compared with T2DM group ,patients in T2DM+ urinary tract infection group were older , with longer duration of diabetes ,higher levels of FPG ,urea nitrogen ,creatinine and 24 hUAlb ,and lower levels of serum albumin ( P< 0.05 ). Logistic regression analysis showed that age ,gender ,duration of diabetes and 24 hUAlb were risk factors and albumin was protective factor for urinary tract infection in T2DM. 84.2% was gram-negative bacteria among the 210 isolated strains of pathogenic bacteria. The top three pathogens were Escherichia coli (65.2% ) ,Enterococcus faecalis (6.2% ) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (5.2% ). Gram-negative bacteria had high sensitivity to Imipenem (100% ) ,Cefoperazone sulbactam (99.2% ) and Amikacin (99.2% ) but low sensitivity to cephalothin (38.1% ) ,piperacillin (35.7% ) and amoxicillin (28.2% ). Conclusion T2DM patients who have the factors including female ,advanced age , long course of diabetes and renal insufficiency are prone to suffer from urinary tract infection. Gram-negative bacteria are the most common pathogens in T 2DM patients with urinary tract infection but bacteria spectrum has changed with percentage of multiple resistant bacteria rising dramatically.

AIM: To observe the effect of microRNA-16 (miR-16) on the megakaryocytic differentiation of K562 cells, and to explore the potential mechanism.METHODS:miR-16 was over-expressed or silenced by transfection with miR-16 mimics or inhibitor in K562 cells.The level of miR-16 was detected by real-time PCR.The expression of CD41, CD42b and CD61, as megakaryocytic differentiation markers, was detected by flow cytometry.The effect of miR-16 on the expression of myeloblastosis oncogene ( MYB) was measured by Western blotting, and flow cytometry was performed to confirm whether the effect of miR-16 on expression of CD41, CD42b and CD61 was mediated by MYB.RESULTS:Transfection with miR-16 mimics dramatically elevated the level of miR-16 and the expression of CD41, CD42b and CD61 in the K562 cells.Transfection with miR-16 inhibitor decreased the level of miR-16 and the expression of CD41, CD42b and CD61 in the K562 cells (P<0.05).The expression of MYB was regulated by miR-16, and MYB silencing reversed the regulation of CD41, CD42b and CD61 induced by miR-16.CONCLUSION:miR-16 regulates the megakaryocytic dif-ferentiation of K562 cells by targeting MYB.

Objective To summarize our results and experience in dealing with the postoperative intrathoracic gastro-air-way fistulae after esophagectomy for esophageal carcinoma.Methods From January 2010 through February 2012,1490 patients with esophageal carcinoma underwent esophagectomy in our department.The postoperative intrathoracic gastro-airway fistulae were documented in 10 patients,with a frequency of 0.67％.Five of them died.The possible etiology,clinical characters,treatment and prevention of this complication were reviewed.Results The location of the fistulate were 7 at left main bronchus,1 at right main bronchus,and 2 at distal trachea.After 2-3 weeks conservative treatment,1 patient underwent primary surgical repair and cured,1 refused any further intervention and sacrified,8 patients underwent endoscopic insertion of covered stent and only 3 healed.For the remaining 5 cases with failed stent therapy,2 died of severe aspiration and lung infection,3 had surgical repair,one of them successed and 2 died of aspiration and aortic rupture,respecively.Conclusion The development of intrathoracic gastro-airway fistulae was associated with the iatrogenic injuries and suturing material irritation of the gastric tube to the tracheal/bronchial wall.Therefore,a meticulous closure and wapping of gastroplasty and appropriate isolation using artifical patch or great omentum between airway and esophageal substitution could effectively reduce the fistulae.The stent therapy usually fails in treating this entity and surgical repair remains the final and ratical therapeutic option.Primary repaire is suggested and careful preoperative assessment is crucial.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of IL-22 in Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori)infection.Methods Thirty H.pyloripositive and fifteen H.pylori negative gastric biopsy specimens were enrolled,IL-22 mRNA expression was detected by real-time PCR and the protein level of IL-22 was determined by ELISA in gastric tissue.The H.pyloriand cell coculture system was established and IL-22 expression was measured by real-time PCR to investigate the main source of IL-22 in gastric tissue.The IL-22-producing T cell was examined by FCM in the gastric mucosa tissue.Results Gastric mucosal IL-22 mRNA and protein levels were significantly higher in H.pylori-positive patients than uninfected patients (P＜0.05).A H.pyloriand cell coculture system was established successfully and gastric epithelial cell and T cell were the main source of IL-22 in gastric tissue.IL-22 was produced by CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and these T cells were increased in H.pylori-infected gastric mucosa (P＜0.05).Conclusion IL-22 took part in H.pyloriinfection induced immune response and increased IL-22-producing T cells was the important feature of H.pyloriinfection.
